Kobold King he/him Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) So did I for a while But for a 'master list' the post has been rather short considering how many players we have. I may need to consider making a second post where all the characters are described by Funtimes for comparison and hilarity. But wouldn't most of those simply be variations of "dirty meanieface full of lame"?...Wait. Why am I saying "but"? That would be awesome. Edited March 12, 2015 by Kobold King 2

Voidus Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 * raises hand * Instead of black and white, would the pictures be tinted pink and glittery? With speech bubbles with quotes that it's rather unlikely the Epic in question ever actually said. 1
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted March 12, 2015 Author Posted March 12, 2015 All in favour of starting 'From the files of Doctor Funtimes'? Just so you know what you're getting yourself into: Aldo the Enigmatic!: A guy with an AMAZING mustache whose name NEEDS an exclamation point because it's so exciting! He has a cape and he can shrink things and make them bigger and he doesn't seem like a meanieface just yet so I can still say his name with YAYNESS! Purple Phoenix: He seems to have a meanieface in his head but GREAT GOOGLY MOOGLY HIS HAT IS AMAZING! Nighthound: If I knew how, he'd be dead yesterday. Seriously. Really. Stop looking at me like that or I'll stab your eyeballs. Lucentia: Does not deserve her arm made of shiny. She should give it to someone else. 6

Mailliw73 he/him Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Me too. For some of my characters too this time.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted March 12, 2015 Author Posted March 12, 2015 Me too. For some of my characters too this time. Altermind: Can make illusions but none of them are fun. Always looks like a movie star or an alien from the Planet Where Everyone Has a Chiseled Jaw. At least, I think that's what a chiseled jaw looks like. I read it in a romance novel once, but the rest of it was so funny I kind of forgot what it was about. Anyway, he's SUUUUPER BORING. He could probably talk about sewage systems ALL NIGHT LONG. And not about the fun things you can do with them, either. Flashpoint: Nice. Smiley. Wears a cape and cargo pants, but doesn't seem to put anything in his pockets. Which is dumb. No—it's sad! He doesn't put anything in all his pockets because he doesn't have anything to put in his pockets! I need to get him some bobbleheads RIGHT NOW! 5

That's not a reference to Victor Hugo, is it? That man could ramble like none other. 1

Oh, man, could he ever. And a lot of what he rambled about was good—the first 50 pages or so of Les Miserables where he talks about the Bishop made me fall in love with the character—but that doesn't change the fact he could go on and on and on.

For sure. I loved the part about the Bishop. And while his discourse on Waterloo could be made into a seminar, it does come into play later. Some, convents and sewer systems, though, I was fine skimming over. That man needed an editor to keep him focused.
Mailliw73 he/him Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Heads up guys, there's an AMA(ask me anything) on reddit tomorrow at 2 pm EDT. This would be a great place to get our Reckoners questions in. Unfortunately, I'm still at school while this is happening. But I hope you guys get a chance to ask a few questions for us. 1
Voidus Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) Added to the master list, thanks everyone for helping out. Edited March 12, 2015 by Voidus
Edgedancer he/him Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 The sooner tomorrow comes the sooner this can happen Speaking of, what are everyone's plans for the rest of the night? I think there's a couple more posts for the Thoughttown attack but I'm thinking about starting up the attack on the Dominion soon and then finish up with the MoNA once everyone else has wrapped up any loose ends. Not much, for Voidgaze it's the MEE attack, Lucentia gets a bit of "bickering" with Lightwards and then back to the Mona and the rest of mine are already there. Just a reminder to everyone about the Epic Summary doc so that I can compile shorter descriptions of everyones Epics into a master list for any new players. Right, I'll get to that. Heads up guys, there's an AMA(ask me anything) on reddit tomorrow at 2 pm EDT. This would be a great place to get our Reckoners questions in. Unfortunately, I'm still at school while this is happening. But I hope you guys get a chance to ask a few questions for us. Great, now I only need to figure out when 2 pm EDT actually is in my timezone (and make a reddit acount). Does anyone know how much that is in actual hours? 1
Voidus Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Then for no reason Voidgaze killed several MEE Epics because Voidus needs more excuses to replace them in his list. Great, now I only need to figure out when 2 pm EDT actually is in my timezone (and make a reddit acount). Does anyone know how much that is in actual hours? A bit over 6 hours away I think. 1

A bit over 6 hours away I think. Clearly a case of Voidus centered morality. I'm honored ashamed to have one of my characters assosiated with this. Awesome, then me and a couple of others should be able to make it. How do Reddit AMAs work? 1

That's today, then? So assuming EDT is in Utah, with the rest of the US on DST and Arizona not, that would be either 1 or 3 PM my time. Looks like I need to make a Reddit account!
Voidus Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Should we brainstorm some questions to ask?Such as:Why doesn't UV light pierce Nightwielders blanket over Newcago but it does pierce the shadow tendrils he attacks David with?Did David originally have a different definition of a High Epic than just an Epic with a PI?Are powers also linked to events in the Epics past?Can we all please get ARC copies of Calamity? 3

Such as: Why doesn't UV light pierce Nightwielders blanket over Newcago but it does pierce the shadow tendrils he attacks David with? Did David originally have a different definition of a High Epic than just an Epic with a PI? Are powers also linked to events in the Epics past? Can we all please get ARC copies of Calamity? Are/were there any notable Epic despots west of the Mississippi? Did Conflux overcome his weakness? I really like your last question, Voidus. 2
Kobold King he/him Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I am now King_of_the_Kobolds on Reddit.com. Oddly, "Kobold_King" was already taken. I'm so excited my mind is suddenly blank for questions to ask. Here's a few that rush to mind: Is there anything you can tell us about Night's Sorrow--gender, powers, or personality-wise? How far does the Coven's territory extend? Can you tell us anything about High Epic despots ruling on the West Coast? If you could have the powers of any Epic in your novels so far, whose would they be and why? Spoilered question: Is the fear of losing one's loved ones a valid or potentially valid candidate for becoming an Epic's weakness? I'm super stoked for this. 2
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted March 12, 2015 Author Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) Which subreddit is this AMA on? EDIT: Never mind; just found it. I think. It's r/fantasy, correct? Also, I don't know if I'll be able to make it for the whole thing. According to Google, 2PM EDT is 11AM Phoenix time, and I'm going to a meeting this morning, and although the latest I could be back is 11:30, I don't know for sure.
