Ashiok Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 (edited) Maybe I'll give her Bendalloy/Cadmium to fix. Primary: can compress or stretch time in a bubble around her. she can make the bubble inclusionary of all who enter, or exclusionary. (if exclusionary, she can't affect people outside of the bubbles and vice versa. Bubbles are escapable Secondary: can Stick someone else she's touching in an exclusionary bubble. On epics, capped at making 1 second to them 100 for us until they escape the bubble or until a 100 seconds pass for them (10000 for us). On humans, 1:1000, timecap 1000 for them (1,000,000 for us) Tertiary: Chronis' body is not affected by the ravages of time, and her body is frozen in the moment she got her power. If stabbed, she doesn't bleed. You need to insta-kill her. She also has an instinctive sense of time, down to the microsecond When she sticks people in bubbles, she gains their memories of their time inside the bubble instantly. Yes, this gives her 1000000 second prescience (ish) by sticking her Vanilla allies in bubbles. However, tapping into those memories is disorienting, because they recall being in a different body and often seeing herself. Sometimes, the memories of the bubbles include recalling one's life, so she has DID that strikes at random. Edited February 23, 2015 by Ashiok 1
Sirce Luckwielder he/him Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Can he remove Objects that he hasn't seen, but can easily guess? If so, he could take a bit of time and make deep thin Sinkholes openup beneath people, hen fill in said holes. He'd be very good at assasination and containment. Like wallets, he could take that. It is easy and if he sees the bulg in someone's pocket, he can know pretty much where it is. In a quick fight, I don't think he would use sinkholes. It would take too much time to put the stuff beneath the person into Storage in a heated combat. If he decided to do that while he is assassinating someone and has time to prepare, then yes, that is feasible. He would also have two or three other backup plans going in though. Using sinkholes is a good idea, but he couldn't use them very often. It wouldn't be incredibly precise either. He would just think, "I'll take a cylinder of matter that is two feet siameter and four feet of height." He would just hope it didn't take too long.
Edgedancer he/him Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Nope I'm not using Hawaii! I have an epic who can control magma. He created his own archipelago called Order. Speaking of my other epics, I think I'm going to introduce Blastaway in Astoria soon. He'll only be there for a few posts, and then he'll leave for a while. I'm going to hold off on introducing Lillian Razor or Bringer right now. Lillian (rogue epic hunter) doesn't really make sense in the context of Astoria or the Dalles, and Bringer will be more fun if he enters the scene after we know the other characters pretty well. Updated bio for Blastaway, agent of chaos: Blastaway is literally an agent of the epic Chaos. Chaos knows Blastaway's weakness. Blastaway doesn't resent this relationship. He might complain, but he always does what he is told. He's prompt and effective. These qualities have earned him a position as Chaos's most trusted agent. Blastaway's current mission is to find the fugitives Planeshift, Memori, and Current Event, and kill them. Appearance: Planeshift is in his late twenties, but appears to be in his early twenties because of the way his body resets every time he reincarnates. Hey, at least he wasn't a little kid. He has thin features and silvery grey hair. He looks kind of like a mix between Crash from Scott Pilgrim vs the World and Quicksilver from X-Men: Days of Future Past. Every time he comes back from the dead, he's wearing the same clothes: a black cape, a black shirt with a purple Decepticon symbol, black skinny jeans, a black and white checkerboard-pattern belt with a seatbelt buckle, and two knives in sheaths at his belt (a bowie knife and a machete). He hates the cape and usually doffs it as soon as he regenerates, but he's quite proud of the knives. It was really difficult to thread the sheaths onto that belt. Personality: Jeremy Grant isn't actually depressed. When he was a kid, his two best friends both went emo. Jeremy pretended to be sad just to fit in and after a while, the deception stuck. He's perpetually complaining and acting like he has the worst life ever, but he actually doesn't have it that bad. Even though he ended up separating from those friends and drifting between crowds at school, he still kept the perpetually-upset personality. He still has nightmares where he is exposed to be a fraud, and is then rejected. Weakness: smiling. If someone seems to be going in for a hug or leading up to the punchline of a great joke, he will self-destruct as quick as possible before he smiles and reveals that deep down, he isn't miserable. Powers: Self-destruct. He can explode at will. If only has a second to prepare, it will injure people next to him. If he has a longer time to charge up, he would completely incinerate anyone standing next to him. His upper limit for charging his power would be the destruction of a large building, or maybe a helicarrier. So this isn't Obliteration-level destruction of an entire city. Reincarnation. Blastaway's true power comes from the fact that he is better at coming back to life than almost any other epic. He suffers no memory loss, increased confusion, additional craziness, or extra personalities. He can even control where he will reincarnate. When he dies, everything goes black. He receives no sensory input, and all he can decide is which direction and how far. He will then appear there with no delay. So he can't sit there for a while and plot out a plan, but he does get to choose exactly where he will appear. The longer time Blastaway takes to charge up his self-destruction, the further away he can reincarnate. If he is killed quickly in a surprise attack, his body burst into flame rather than exploding. It will cause only minor burns to those near him. He will have to reincarnate within a few hundred feet of the location of his death. Blastaway uses his two powers together as a very explodey method of teleportation. It's quick, destructive, and very easy to track. Reasoning I decided to make a couple of changes. First, I wanted to make it very clear that Blastaway is not actually depressed. I'm not talented enough to write a character who is depressed, the subject of jokes, and not offensive. I think I could do any two of those, but not all three together. So I changed him and his backstory, and then his weakness also had to be changed. (It used to be hugs. Now it's smiling. Cheesy weaknesses=best weaknesses.) I also added a more detailed description. I wanted him to have a bowie knife, and I wanted him to have two knives, but I also wanted his weaponry to be a little bit mismatched. Hence the machete. The cape was just because I like the image of him always appearing, then immediately throwing off his cape. Decepticon shirt because he's old enough to remember when Transformers were awesome (pre-Bayhem), plus his powers are splodey enough to make Michael Bay cry and pee his pants at the same time. I also changed the powers just slightly. I let him travel farther if he charged his explosion more. I did this just to encourage him to make bigger explosions. Oregon must fall! One more thing: I really hope that in the RP, when other characters realize that Blastaway can fight until he's a bloody pulp, then explode himself, one of them will exclaim, "Blood and ashes!" Does it count if someone pulls his lip up in a smile? Maybe I'll give her Bendalloy/Cadmium to fix.

Sometimes, the memories of the bubbles include recalling one's life, so she has DID that strikes at random. How large can the bubbles be? As a pointer, predicting what any of our characters will do in ten days is pretty much impossible in a meta sense. I suppose I'll file the inconsistency between the movement of her blood being in a stasis but not the other physical parts of her body not under quirks.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 23, 2015 Author Posted February 23, 2015 Mailliw, random question with a purpose: Does Altermind speak French?
Newan he/him Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Does it count if someone pulls his lip up in a smile? Nope.
Edgedancer he/him Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Nope. I see. Voidus, get Jeff back into the game, we need that Pinky Pie personality. (Or we laughing gas him. ) 3
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 23, 2015 Author Posted February 23, 2015 I see. Voidus, get Jeff back into the game, we need that Pinky Pie personality. (Or we laughing gas him. ) Why don't we do both?
Edgedancer he/him Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Why don't we do both? Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 23, 2015 Author Posted February 23, 2015 Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Are you thinking we should arm PP's new Pinkie Pie personality with laughing gas?
Edgedancer he/him Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Are you thinking we should arm PP's new Pinkie Pie personality with laughing gas? I was thinking about upgrading the party canon with a gas granade option, so close enough.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 23, 2015 Author Posted February 23, 2015 I was thinking about upgrading the party canon with a gas granade option, so close enough. You mean it doesn't have one already? Don't tell me it's missing the gummy worm rope bombs, too! 1
Guest Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 I'm sure everyone noticed, but I posted Nightshade's (and sort of Midnight Tears) first post. Prepare for some serious kick-butt action from Aonar and I!

Prepare for some serious kick-butt action from Aonar and I! Just got around to reading it, I know it isn't in text but how the sparks did he twist the neck of someone that can turn insubstantial?
Guest Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Whut? Lemme go check. Perhaps there was some confusion.
Guest Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 I'm not seeing the problem. Could you give me some details?
Edgedancer he/him Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Whut? Lemme go check. Perhaps there was some confusion. Pyrelord: Capable of turning his body into fire hot enough to melt bullets and shooting from his hands. Relatively standard fire Epic. You can't really grab fire.
Guest Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 DANG IT! Okay, consider Pyrelord retconned. I didn't realize/forgot that he literally became fire. You can see in my post that it says his skin burned with flames, not that he became immaterial. I wrote that post with the ultimate goal of snapping someone's neck, so I'm not changing it now. I could change the guy's name, I guess. To Cinder.

By the way, with things going as they are they'll probably be noticed rather soon.
Guest Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Actually, I'll change his name to something else because I want to use Cinder in the future. What will be noticed soon?
Edgedancer he/him Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Actually, I'll change his name to something else because I want to use Cinder in the future. What will be noticed soon? Causing a massive fight in one of the cities known gathering spots.
Guest Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Yes, indeed it will. Aonar and I are writing a massive action scene together that should be well received. The Leauge will crush all the puny Epics.
Voidus Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Yeah I did think that when you said you wanted Pyrelord since technically he has a PI, but as I said I didn't put much thought into him so I don't mind if he gets a powerset change.
Edgedancer he/him Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 (edited) A thought occurred to me: Until now weaknesses haven't really played a role in any part of the RP but given what is running around in Astoria it's really just a matter of time until it does and given how strong many Epics there are there the possibility of records about them existing is also pretty high. (Greetings from David's magic notes ) (Not that I know how easy it would be to exploit them for a good deal of weaknesses given that I haven't been told a good deal of them yet. ) Just thought I should raise the point for people to discuss.

Mailliw73 he/him Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 I don't think Epics still run prisons, at least not for Vanillas. Not only do they not have a reason to but it also costs them ressources. That is a very good point. Okay, they recruited the survivors of Connell's army and from Fort Lewis near DuPont. Mailliw, random question with a purpose: Does Altermind speak French? Huh. I'm very curious about the purpose behind this. Alan me? I could see it being either way, but he'll definitely know a basic amount of Spanish and a passing amount of German.

That is a very reasonable point. Jag and Hawk both know each other's, but the others' are secret. Des's could be set off fairly easily in the right circumstances, but for Smasher's, you have to know his history. Which reminds me, I need to PM you those weaknesses.
