Blackhoof Posted July 28, 2015 Posted July 28, 2015 Knowing myself I doubt I would get Skydancer significantly weaker than Kenshin or Vapor Snake. well even without High Epics there could be Epics that have very strong powers. As long as none have PIs, a number of incredibly destructive Epics who are wary of engaging each other would make sense. Glass cannon Epics of a fashion.
+Slowswift Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 We're talking about the Portland thread, about the character with childcare-related powers named Mommy. I once read the entire Portland thread, and it only took me one day! I had to take longer than that catching up on my sleep and food requirements, and the thread was only half its current size at the time, but I did it. Actually, if you have a phone that can access the internet, it's a great way to slack off during work. That's how I got through Portland. Well, I read the most recent post -- it's just that I have no context to understand it and I don't feel like wading through pages of Portland and Epics of Oregon.
Mckeedee123 he/him Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 (edited) Glass cannon Epics of a fashion.Hmm. I'd prefer Autumn Glass cannon Epics myself, but it's probably too much to ask for #badjoke Edited July 29, 2015 by Mckeedee123 2
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted July 29, 2015 Author Posted July 29, 2015 Hmm. I'd prefer Autumn Glass cannon Epics myself, but *sigh* it's probably too much to ask for. According to Kobold's theory, Autumn Glass already suffers from seasonal Epicness, so it might be possible. 1
Kobold King he/him Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 According to Kobold's theory, Autumn Glass already suffers from seasonal Epicness, so it might be possible. Glasscanons are the best headcanons. 1
Edgedancer he/him Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 Yikes, Mommy was lucky that mutated attack dog didn’t rip her to shreds once she started threathening his? owner, whos happiness is his reason for exsistence. Is it just me or are we setting up for a Situation in which Autumn shoots an Epic with a canon and then jokes "I am Glass and this is my canon." 4
Blackhoof Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 If she ever becomes a grizzled, badass warrior, she should carry around a huge magnum 45 with the words "glass cannon" inscribed on the sides.
Voidus Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 If she ever becomes a grizzled, badass warrior, she should carry around a huge magnum 45 with the words "glass cannon" inscribed on the sides. Scribbler can make an actual glass cannon for her, preferrably one with Deathwish tied up inside as a birthday present 4
Mestiv he/him Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 I have a suggestion concerning Corvallis, but it may be applied to other cities too. Can we make some kind of a list of where every character lives? I have no idea where to place Cornutopias Arboretum on the map, or where is the church that Gunsmoke resides in. All I could find is the Oregon State University. I think that placing some of the events and locations on the map will help us avoid some logical mistakes. If that is OK with Blackhoof I'd like to set, that Iconoclasts attack took place near Brandis City Park in which Summer climbed a tree to hide from ghouls. Drainer lives in one of the houses near that park. Can others specify where their characters live and where are other places of interest for the RP?

Drainer lives in one of the houses near that park. Can others specify where their characters live and where are other places of interest for the RP? Fair enough, good idea yeah that works fine. I hadn't got a place in my head, beyond on the edge of town near a wooded area (because in his second post, I established that Firefly's house was on the edge of town near woods that he had been hiding in), and since this street is Firefly's street, it must be about there. Where you selected is basically perfect, to be honest. also keep in mind that most of the area between the edge of the dome and the city is filled with Cornucopia's plants. For your reference, the big fight in the first day happened at the Crystal Lakes Sports Field @Tyson: where is Gunsmoke's church, btw? @Shard: do you have a rough idea where Phoenix is hiding? So i know where to attack him haha, if it is too far or something. So I guess that means the attack occurred on Garryanna Drive Street view is so trippy in this context.

Voidus Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 Cornucopias Arboretum is the Peavy Arboretum right near the edge of the bubble and very near to where Argon entered, he'd pass right by it on his way into Corvallis proper probably.
Mestiv he/him Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 So I think that would also be a good idea to create a separate thread where we would be able to have a list of those places and also the population count that was discussed several pages ago. I volunteer to keep track of Corvallis locations and ask authors for placement of their actions if they don't mention them in their posts. Someone else might do the same for other cities. 1
Mestiv he/him Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 I will, with the places we just provided. I'll maybe even prepare some kind of a map similar to the one used in Pin Me Up!
Voidus Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 It mightn't be a bad idea to wait til Twi gets on, in case she wants to merge it into one of the current threads like the Oregon Easter Eggs.
Mestiv he/him Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 Fine, the new topic can wait, but the map is on it's way 1
Blackhoof Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 (edited) yeah, we should wait for Twi. She is after all the overall gamemaster of this RP. Have any of you google earthed Corvallis? It has an ungodly amount of trees. No wonder Cornucopia likes this place haha Edited July 29, 2015 by Blackhoof 1
Voidus Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 I mean obviously you can start a new thread, I'm just a lowly thread GM and spawner of calamity's most unfortunate mistakes not a mod but if you do Twi might well merge it anyway so it was more of a heads up
Mestiv he/him Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 So, I started to make this MAP it's pretty empty now, but as others give me more information (especially Blaze and Comatose) I'll be able to point more interesting places in Corvallis. I can give edit privileges to anyone with Google account, so if anyone wants to do another set of markers for other cities, please PM me If anyone disagrees about where some pointer should be placed, contact me as well and we'll figure something out. Places that I'd like to mark: Gunsmokes church Phoenixes hideout Rainmaikers home Buttercups home Blossoms home (if it's somewhere else) Bubbles home (if it's somewhere else) Chase home (I think it was in the basements of OSU, but I'm not sure) Jumpdrives home/office The bridge where Iron Ogress was fought (I don't know which one is it, I couldn't find Harrison Street Bridge) 5

She is after all the overall gamemaster of this RP. Have any of you google earthed Corvallis? It has an ungodly amount of trees. No wonder Cornucopia likes this place haha Isn't most of Oregon like that? But yes it is a good place for Cornucopia, although wherever she ended up she likely would have just terraformed the whole place.

It's a strange luxury.

If you'd like help with anything, I can always edit through my google account. PM me if you'd like to include me. Anyways, a couple things. First off, the Harrison Street Bridge is unmarked on google maps because it's a "one-way" bridge that funnels 34 traffic into Corvallis. It's partnered bridge, the Van Buren Street Bridge, funnels traffic out of Corvallis onto 34, heading towards Tangent. Here's the two bridges I'm taking about (I had to use a park nearby to get the map to zoom properly). So with that map, the Van Buren Street Bridge is the southern bridge, and the Harrison Street Bridge is the northern one. As far as homes for my characters, I never really thought about it, so you'd have to give me some time to consider it. Also keep in mind that your characters can live in the parts of Tangent and Albany that are engulfed by the bubble, as well as the town of Philomath, which is completely within the bubble.

Voidus Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 Trying to find an icon for Soulcaster, nothing seems to fit. ALso Edge what was the plan with the Adventurer meeting up with... someone, I forget who, think we planned it a few weeks ago.

Too bad that Google Maps don't have an option to draw a circle on those maps. But I'll figure something out to let everyone visually know where the 9 mile radius bubble ends.

But I'll figure something out to let everyone visually know where the 9 mile radius bubble ends. I was thinking just making four markers, North, South, East, and West. The hardest part is getting 9 miles as the crow flies, and not as the car drives. I also think that, should the other threads choose to jump in, we all use the same Map, and make each RP its own layer, just for consolidation. 1
