From memory, it has been asked and the answer is yes.

Cool.  That's good to hear.  Thanks.  By the way, there is a new Winterspell post up in Astoria.

Having just noticed that Snoopy apparently went on a hiatus are there any arrangments for the people that have characters in the same scene as him or do we need to find a solution there?

Is he online long enough to view/respond to messages? If so, we should try contacting him first.

 

 

In other news, the wonderful Little Wilson has agreed to ask Reckonerverse questions next time she's at a signing. :D We need to put together a list of high-priority questions. Any suggestions?

He hasn't be on since 03.03. When he updated his Feed to stating that he's

 

now going to be dropping off of the face of the earth.

While ten days aren't the world this does seem final. :(

 

I'll think of something tomorrow when I wake up. ;)

Awesome, thanks :)

Name: Iconoclast

Primary Power: Can turn people into raving, homicidal, sociopathic killers, much like epics but with even more rage and bloodthirstiness. Must touch fir several seconds to do this. Affected don't attack him, or each other, and hunger for blood and human flesh. They are fearless and feel no pain, but are otherwise human. Does not affect Epics. Iconoclysm can exert limited control over these ghouls.

Secondary Power: Prime Invincibility Regeneration. Can regenerate from any wound as long as a single piece of flesh larger than a dozen cells remains. Regeneration from such a state takes days, but most wounds can be healed in seconds.

Tertiary Power: Minor Body Alteration: can alter his body and form in minor ways. For example, he can grow claws, and strengthen his muscles to give himself enhanced strength and speed, but cannot grow new limbs or transform into other life forms. Relatively imprecise as well, so couldn't mimic another human or epic, even if they were a similar height and build. Is a gifter, and gifts this power to his ghouls so that they too can shape their forms.

Weakness: symbols of faith and holy buildings. He cannot "turn" anyone carrying a holy symbol (any main religion) although he can affect them in any other way. Powers weaken when in close proximity to a holy symbol or on holy ground, and fail completely when in direct contact with one. Wounds sustained while his powers have failed will heal when the symbol is removed, but if he is killed while in contact with a holy symbol, he will not regenerate and be dead for good.

Brand of evil: delights in chaos and the destruction of things that people hold dear. Has a pack of his ghouls around him at all times, for defence and support. Tends to wander the wastelands, killing, eating and turning any humans he comes across. Will often target Epic rulers, and bring down their kingdoms by spreading his insanity. Has his ghouls destroy every holy building and church, even monuments or statues, anything that people "worship", to show his contempt of their faith. Since his powers are weakened through all the gifting, he prefers to disguise himself as one of his ghouls.

Backstory: Old name: Roger Moore. Was an ex-priest turned atheist who lost his faith in god when his wife was brutally murdered and raped in front of him.

OOC: i was thinking he could be new in town, planning on turning the Dalles into a charnal house, just the way he likes it.

Welcome to the RP, Blackhoof. :) I'm the deputy GM for The Dalles, but it's primarily a title I use to make myself look important in front of newcomers. :P Can't wait to hear about your characters!

 

 

Concerning what's on everyone's minds--the AMA--does the affirmation that all Epics age mean that I need to tweak Lightwards a bit? The way I have it worked out now, he ages normally but is "reset" into a middle-aged body every time he resurrects.

As I recall, Timeport's aging is reset with each resurrection, and I think there were one of two others.

Provided someone ever takes over Mundivore again, I had him as unaging, sort of like Wolverine.

I have been wondering about that as well, as Aonar, Snoopy and I were planning out the League of Shadows+- Vis Vires interacting with Astoria, and he hasn't been on the doc either.  I think we need to figure out a solution, as currently that scene between Azrael, Vis, and Snoopy's Epics is sitting in hiatus.

 

Blackhoof, Ionoclast is awesome, and I will leave the power dissection to those who are far more skilled at it than me.

 

EDIT:  Snoopy will be able to RP, so we will get that section of Astoria going up again eventually.

I gave Iconoclast a terror-upvote back when he was on the "If you were an Epic" thread, and now I give him another. :mellow:

 

He's definitely awesome, though. Here are a few questions I have about him:

 

  • Does he have a limit to the number of ghouls he can control at once?
  • Is there any way for a ghoul to be returned to normal once turned?
  • How much destruction has he wreaked before entering The Dalles? Is it likely that the lorists working for The Dalles City Guard would have heard of him before now?
Posted

Iconoclast is definitely interesting, although I'm not sure if the Dalles could handle him and the Panda at the same time since it seems like they both rely on army tactics and also the Dalles is pretty pro-Vanilla so they wouldn't handle having to murder their turned civilians very well, which would be awesome to write because of the whole morality of it and it would make for some awesome scenes but I don't know that the Dalles could handle it very well.

Then again the whole point is to destroy Oregon so maybe that's for the best :P

Yeah! Finally got a post up! 

Spring break ROCKS. not only is there actual free time(which I had begin to doubt the existence of), but my roommates are gone for the break, which is possibly even better 

I've still got work, but work is better than calculus and my awful english class.

 

So I feel like I should give a quick update, to explain my lack of participation.

As I may have mentioned earlier in the year, I'm taking 16 units this semester, which are comprised of Microbiology, Chemistry, Calculus, and English Comp. While this would be quite a load on it's own, I also work 15-20 hours a week so I can make ends meet and not be homeless, which as Samuel Clemens once said, "Would be kind of a bummer." I'm also a youth leader at my church and on the worship team, so needless to say the concepts of free time and that strange thing which people call "sleep" are supremely foreign. So while I make sure to read everything, post can be difficult because I rarely have time to write what I judge to be a quality post, and I won't submit any other kind.

Also, my roommates have the unfortunate habit of sex-iling me whenever they have their girlfriends over. <_<

I really do enjoy this community, and I'll keep doing my best to contribute as "regularly" as I can.

 

 

Out of curiosity, what courses, if any, are y'all taking this semester?

Second Semester of Quantum Mechanics, Introductory General Relativity, Physics Research, working on a Religious Studies Capstone project. And a Racquetball class for fun.

I now feel woefully underwhelmed by my workload...

Posted

It's not as bad as it sounds. Most of the work for both the Physics Research and the capstone project has been outsourced to this coming summer (these being ongoing things and all). Which is good because it leaves time for working. And free time, whatever that is.

Well that's a nasty one. Although, I have to agree with Voidus, he does fit the same roll as the Panda. Now, if Vondra would resolve that problem by firing his remaining missiles. :ph34r:

Yikes, that's a lot.

That's good then. On a similar note, given that Winterspell and Deathgale are going to travel by air, I thought they would have a pretty good chance of noticing what's going on. Thoughts?

Speaking of that scene, I haven't heard from Lightsworn in a while, does anyone know if he's still around?

He's certainly still around on the site in generall. Actually I think I saw him active today and he seems to be participating in the elimination games. Apart from that he doesn't seem to stop by here. Maybe send him a pm, it's not like it's rare for him to not show up a while and then say he either was bussy or had writer's block.

Glad you're back, Fatebreaker! :D

I'm amazed by the classes everyone is taking this semester. (Especially Seonid. O.o) I only have two, but one is a 600-level class on management and one is an internship that takes two of my three previously free days.

Posted (edited)

I'm jealous of Seonids classes, I wish I could study everything but unfortunately I had to decide between a maths/physics focus or a chem/bio :(
Then I cheated and snuck in some programming anyway because I love it :P

The way that they are traveling, it is more of a point and shoot form. If they notice something in the air, they are going to need to land, and then backtrack all the way there unless they are notified beforehand. If someone wants to meet up, it would be better to tell us before they launch.

Winter, how durable will Red's blood darts be? When the Unicyclist tries to incinerate them, will he be successful, or will he need to go into evasive maneuvers? 

 

I love this pair of sentences. :P

Posted

So, I have time to write a post. All in favor of giving the Triumvirate a dinosaur-sized timeout? :P

 

Also, I hid Yin Yang's first post so I can write a new one in Astoria.
