Kobold King Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 Kobold and Voidus, do you guys remember what we planned for the Freq/Impact/Deathwish scene? Who's up next? Um, I don't remember. Anything. Hold on, let me go reread our Alan thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comatose Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 So back to my earlier question, when would a sizable explosion happen? How big? It could also happen out in the fields, which are included under the shield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mailliw73 Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 Um, I don't remember. Anything. Hold on, let me go reread our Alan thread... It looks like Voidus was the last to post with Impact, so it depends on where we want to go from here, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could have Deathwish swoop in and tell them to surrender if you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mailliw73 Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 I could have Deathwish swoop in and tell them to surrender if you like. Sounds good to me. I don't see any reason to delay the battle, unless Voidus has a reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSilverDragon Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 How big? It could also happen out in the fields, which are included under the shield.At least as big as she is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comatose Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 At least as big as she is. Okay, so the damage would be limited to the size of a person? If that's the case she could appear pretty much anywhere. As for timing, she can appear any time, but you will mostly be interacting with NPCs until Rainmaker is ready (unless Edge would want Kenshin to be sent out with a retrieval team?). If the explosion is big enough to cause a ruckus and draw Rainmaker out immediately, then I would prefer for the Queens to meet first, so we have a chance to meet each of them, and get a feel for their dynamic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it was a small explosion, Converter would still cause a commotion just being who she is. I'll start writing her death scene, and once the meeting of the queens is over, I'll write her entrance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he'd be withdrawn from the battlefield so he and the other Epics can regroup? Otherwise, would he stand up against Frequency? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comatose Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 I still want him to run into T-Swift . Perhaps he is listening to one of her songs when he walks by, and she can't help but reveal herself to bask in the praise of a potential fan .

mail-mi Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 No, no, no. Not that one. Never that one. Maybe Funtimes' god? Unless, of course, the Great Noodly One and Calamity really are one and the same. (Put here to stop derailing the Obliteration thread) If they are... I don't even want to think about that.

Mailliw73 Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Here's the Corvallis hypnotist's bio. Let me know if anything doesn't fit, Coma. Epic Name: Hypno Human Name: Hector Ponte Weakness: <PM'd to the GM> Primary Power: Hypnosis: He is able to hypnotize anyone he meets. They are then hypnotized for up to an hour, unless he cuts it off. While hypnotized, they will be incredibly prone to suggestion from anyone and will seem dazed. They will be able to focus extremely well on anything they are told to. He can hypnotize around ten people like this at once. Secondary Power: Commands: Hypno can command anyone to do anything. His commands order the person to do as he says and only the strongest willed can resist when he is focusing on them. He can command up to five regular people at once at full strength. The more people he affects, or the strong willed they are, the less his power affects them. At his best, he can command a hundred people, but his commands will be received only as advice. If he commanded a large crowd to jump off a cliff, for instance, they might look at the cliff and then laugh, if they are strong willed, or take a couple steps towards it a bit if they are easily swayed. While commanding only one person, Hypno could force someone to walk off the cliff regardless of their inhibitions. Passive Power: Hypno is impervious to mental powers. Illusions, emotional manipulation, etc. Appearance: Hector is half-Hispanic on his father's side. He is around 5'7", making him shorter than average. He is very thin and wiry. At his age, he isn't very muscular, but as a young adult, he was lean and strong and traces of that can still be seen in his arms. He has dark black hair, now peppered with gray. He has very dark eyes. He likes to dress in a bit of costume, so he wears a dramatic purple and black cape on his suit. He always has a polka dot yellow tie on. Age: 62 Home City: Fairfield, Washington Weaponry: He keeps a handgun in a shoulder holster, but relies on his powers more. Hypno is an arrogant, selfish Epic. He had traces of these emotions before he became an Epic, though not as strong. He lived in Washington most of his life, mainly in Spokane and Fairfield before he moved to Corvallis. As a child, Hector had wanted to be a magician. He had loved seeing their magic tricks and had learned quite a few simple ones. To this day, he still is great at palming objects and distracting people from what he's really doing. As he grew older, he took psychology classes and learned about hypnosis. Instantly intrigued, Hector delved into research about the subject. He watched hypnotists whenever he could. He tried, but never managed to hypnotize his doubtful older brother, Don. After struggling with hypnosis, Hector gave up and began a career in accounting. Before Calamity, he was an accountant at a large company based in Spokane. He was quite wealthy, but greedy and shared nothing with his family. He focused on work and none of his relationships lasted until one. Most gave up on him because of his greed and arrogance, but at 37, he met Denise. She was eight years younger and was selfish herself. She was attracted only to Hector's money. While Hector subconsciously realized this, he never mentioned it or ended the relationship. He wanted love and she wanted money. A year later, they married and moved to Fairfield. He commuted to Spokane for work, but cut almost all ties with his family there. Denise became more greedy and leeched much of Hector's earnings for shopping and various purchases. He put up with it and spent what was left of his money on extravagance as well. At 55, he had enough money and enough investments to retire early. The couple used that time to travel the country and spend more on luxury items. When Calamity rose, Hector built an underground bunker to live in. Approximately four years later, he woke up with powers. The first thing he did was to command his wife to leave the bunker. Watching from a camera he had planted on her, he commanded her to draw the attention of Myst, a powerful Epic in town, using a small earbud. She drew Myst's attention and, following Hypno's command, she attacked the Epic. Obviously outgunned, she was killed almost instantly. Hypno reveled in the powers he had gained, the powers he had coveted as a child. From then on, he used his powers to randomly cause humans to commit suicide. Hypno moved out of Fairfield, heading south to Oregon to find a more stable town to work in. Upon hearing the rumors of a paradise in Corvallis, he headed there immediately. Rainmaker brought him in and gave him a modest sized house and twenty slaves. The arrangement suited Hypno, as he got to lounge about and enjoy the luxuries he had always had, courtesy of Cornucopia, and he had his own retinue of slaves to command about. When called upon, Hypno is used to dispel rebellions by causing repeat offenders to commit suicide, calming the remnants of the rebellion. He also has taken control of dissenters and used them to cause chaos and confusion among other dissenters and rebels. Occasionally, he is given someone to execute and that is his favorite duty. There's a bit of an Easter egg for the observant reader. Coma, how long has Corvallis been ruled by Rainmaker and the Queens? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
