Lightsworn Panda Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 An Epic I just created because I was struck with the strangest bolt of inspiration: Ostrich Primary Power: Ostrich has the ability to transform into an ostrich when he feels threatened, and will promptly try to bury his head. Leads to interesting if not painful situations when his ability activates whilst standing above asphalt. Secondary Power: Occasionally, when Ostrich is transformed, he has a chance of taking flight, breaking the laws of science in a most spectacular way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voidus Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Even Backtrack has more badchull temporal abilities than Metronome. Although they're completely opposite in their reactions to their power. Backtrack continually cowering and thinking how useless it is. Metronome challenging High Epics to duels while proclaiming his awesome powers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I the only one who wants to see a duel between Metronome and Backtrack? One that results in Backtrack crying because Metronome started the duel by cruelly mocking him? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voidus Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 We should do it, then. I could use another popular post. We could have him meet Metronome somewhere in the Dalles, trying desperately to convince the city guard that his power is not just a weird talent but an Epic power. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobold King Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) We could have him meet Metronome somewhere in the Dalles, trying desperately to convince the city guard that his power is not just a weird talent but an Epic power. The City Guard wouldn't even try to shoot him. They'd simply pat him on the head, tell him what a powerful High Epic he is, and send him on his way while muttering "God bless him" under their breaths. EDIT: We should do it, then. I could use another popular post. This post was a joke. I didn't mean it to be offensive or gloating or mean-spirited, to whomever downvoted it. If need be I will hide it from the forum.

I learned from a friend in the American South that "Bless your heart" is Southern for "You're an idiot." I have a feeling quite a few Guardsmen would bless Metronome's heart. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling quite a few Guardsmen would bless Metronome's heart. This inspires me to create an Epic called Blessheart, whose power is lowering the effective IQ of everyone within his vicinity. Himself included. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aonar Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Not at all. Were you already making plans for them? Not much in detail, but I'm thinking the more the League stays together, the better chance they'll have of actually surviving in Astoria, even with Azrael's protection. Frostfire post is up. Hopefully Reader's finally learned a little humility. (Mostly because I really don't know how I'm going to keep Reader alive through this if he hasn't. ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
