Kobold King he/him Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 It's homemade. I made the scarf myself (though I'm currently seeking out yarn for a Mark II, so I can get the stitching right), bought a skirt, blouse, and brown cloche hat at Goodwill, and added a pair of leggings. I had the boots and plaid tweed coat to start with. That sounds good. "Strict tyranny" is a pretty broad description; it could mean anything from an Epic like mirrorverse!Backtrack who can kill you yesterday, or an Epic who is so fond of cheese that he has forced every citizen in Tillamook to take up dairy farming. (The second one wouldn't be too far off the mark, actually; Tillamook is already a pretty popular brand of dairy, manufacturing quality yogurt, cheese, and ice cream. I've tried it. It's pretty good.) That is seriously awesome. I don't suppose you've ever offered someone a jelly baby while in costume? Cool. (And for the record, I'd support the Cheddar Chancellor as the tyrant over Tillamook. ) 2

(And for the record, I'd support the Cheddar Chancellor as the tyrant over Tillamook. ) Thanks. And of course I did. I first wore it to a superhero-themed Halloween party, so I grabbed some jelly babies and offered them to people. (The only major snarl in that plan was when I was told I had to write my character's real name on my cup. So I just went with Joanna Smith. ) I wonder if Voidus has anything to say about the Cheddar Chancellor. 2
Voidus Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) Well if you insist Cheddar ChancellorPrimary:Chemo-Electrical conversion - Has electric bolt capabilities however the strength of his blasts is in proportion to how much he's eaten.Swiss cheese- Can also use his internal chemical energy to fire a spray of electrical bullets, peppering his target with holes.Secondary: Passive: Enhanced senses- Cheddar Chancellors senses, specifically his sense of taste and smell are far above that of Vanillas, allowing him to track both person and cheese alike.Passive: Coating- Can turn his skin into a waxy coating and pull it off, resulting in complete healing of his wounds.

Am I the only one who wants to see a fight between him and mirrorverse!Springfield? Because that power set almost made me wish I'd made him an Epic after all. Almost. 2
Kobold King he/him Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Am I the only one who wants to see a fight between him and mirrorverse!Springfield? Because that power set almost made me wish I'd made him an Epic after all. Almost. That fight would be... argh, what's a synonym for epic? It's hard expressing how awesome a fight between Epics would be without resorting to puns. If the Unicyclist, Revolution, AND Remington all became Epics, we'd be forced to assume that Funtimes is a second Calamity who turns every vanilla she speaks to into an Epic. And we'd then have to separate her from the rest of Vanilla Sabotage, lest Oregon suffer the scourges of Darkrose and Berry Sperry. 2
Voidus Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 I've also decided that Cheddar Chancellor goes around dressed as Chancellor Palpatine, hence why I gave him lightning powers Am I the only one who wants to see a fight between him and mirrorverse!Springfield? Because that power set almost made me wish I'd made him an Epic after all. Almost. That would be greatly amusing If only there were a couple who specialized in Epic technology and could upgrade his weapons in some way 2

I'm….picturing him having some sort of poison berry control, and that his MO consists almost entirely of killing people who make fun of his name. Which is to say….everyone.

Voidus Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Now he needs a passive tertiary that causes the "Imperial March" to play every time he walks into a room. I knew there was a reason I've been keeping Synesthesia alive. She may need to find her way to Tillamook in the near future. Also just because his profile would not be complete without it: 3
Guest Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Now he needs a passive tertiary that causes the "Imperial March" to play every time he walks into a room. No. Too cliche. How 'bout the evil cackle instead, but on a never-ending loop.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 7, 2015 Author Posted February 7, 2015 No. Too cliche. How 'bout the evil cackle instead, but on a never-ending loop. But that's just annoying! The "Imperial March" at least doesn't make people want to claw their ears out. 1

mail-mi he/him Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Guys. Guys. Angel's post is popular woohoo third popular post in the RP! 3
mail-mi he/him Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Didn't Scorch's death post get popular? I don't know but it's my first popular post other than a signing report so I'm happy 1
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 7, 2015 Author Posted February 7, 2015 Guys. Guys. Angel's post is popular woohoo third popular post in the RP! Congrats! Would it be out of place for me to embark on a goal of helping each player in this game get at least one popular post? Didn't Scorch's death post get popular? I thought it did for a second…but it only has five. Lightsong's monkey strikes again. 1
Guest Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Awesome. My first popular post was a bunch of Sanderson Pickup Lines.
Edgedancer he/him Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 So far we have…. Portland (probably most populated, attracting people who thought it safer to stay where they always were or who hoped the large population would lend them anonymity and thus safety where Epics were concerned) The Dalles (probably now within the top ten, attracting people who like the human-run government and can abide by Vondra's strict rules) Astoria (also top ten, because I can't imagine Lucentia allowing anyone to leave) Salem (undeveloped within the RP, but also most likely in the top ten) Cottage Grove (a small town before Calamity; still standing in the RP but also little more than a tiny hamlet) This also leaves room for some cities to have been partially or totally destroyed before the RP's beginning. Any other cities that we should fit into this chart? Given that you with the Financier you essentially supplied Astoria with limitless resources the city ought to hav grown quite a bit. Concerning not allowing eople to leave, well I came to the same conclusion, then i remembered that some people put their characters having been in Astoria. I could find a canon explanation for that but it would involve turning Revolution into what´s essentially a bomb that Lucentia is one phone call away from triggering. About the Dalles, I don´t think they would have grown much, as I said before should the city actually be well known I´m pretty sure Epics would destroy it just out of principle. 2

I don't think it would be out of place (but then again, I haven't gotten a popular post yet...not even with the whack-a-mole meme ) I'm still trying to come up with a new Team Paladin post. If I don't hurry, there won't be any pandas left for them...
Voidus Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 About the Dalles, I don´t think they would have grown much, as I said before should the city actually be well known I´m pretty sure Epics would destroy it just out of principle. Well Koschei's reputation might have put a few off, and against the whole city anyone without a PI wouldn't stand much of a chance and anyone with a PI would need to kill a significant portion of the population to conquer the city. As was mentioned in Steelheart Epics need people to be alive, they want to rule people, not slaughter them. (With a few exceptions who will not be named... *mumbledcough*Obliteration)

About the Dalles, I don´t think they would have grown much, as I said before should the city actually be well known I´m pretty sure Epics would destroy it just out of principle. True, all of that. Limitless resources would definitely be an attraction; I'd actually forgotten about that. With The Dalles, maybe Vondra's leadership is less well-known outside of town? There are enough Epics in town, and the more powerful ones are given enough leeway, that a casual observer could simply think it was ruled by Epics who gave Vondra an unusual amount of say in governance? Yeah I just checked it too, that monkey sure does work in mysterious ways. I think my first popular post was just a random Mistborn joke, got over 20 upvotes I think. </shameless bragging> Doesn't it, though? I don't remember how many upvotes it had, but my first popular post was a pun on "high Epics in their glory." 2
