Voidus Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 his mind control powers work in a way that simply makes them violent and extremely angry with their friends/ allies. the water will stay there until it evaporates away. after that there will be no more flooding, unless he is in that area again. See I think the problem here is that even if it were effective on Epics they already feel like that pretty much all the time so they'd be pretty used to not acting on it. P

P Lucentia says something. Everyone else: "Oh Calamity I want to stab her!"
Citadel16 he/him Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) okay fair enough. but then again, that power would have been less effective against epics anyway. Is it normal for people to ponify their epics? I mean, Even I did it and I dont even like that cartoon. maybe I'm just tired. Edited January 19, 2016 by warriormark16 1
RippleGylf she/her Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 So, I've been trying to iron out an idea for a new epic. I don't know where I would put her, and I'm not sure if I'm ready to roleplay until I have her powers figure out. I won't post a full profile yet. Basically, she can cause objects to sink through other objects. During contact, these objects act as if there is no normal force (if you happen to be familiar with somewhat basic physics). This does not work on currently living things, and affected objects cannot go through currently living things. (I may revise this to just include humans, as the main reason for this limitation is because I don't know what it would feel like and it's just simpler if we don't think about that.) Tentatively named Abnormal. Putting this back up because I would like more than one opinion on it, and it got lost in the flood of question posts.

Well, again I'm a pretty big fan of it. It might cause some oddities, but I think they're complicated enough to be hand-waved if necessary.
Blackhoof Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 okay fair enough. but then again, that power would have been less effective against epics anyway. Is it normal for people to ponify their epics? I mean, Even I did it and I dont even like that cartoon. maybe I'm just tired. well that sounds within reason. Is it a permanent affect? We sort of already have someone similar if so (Iconoclast) Does it only last as long as he is focusing on the target? And how many people can he affect at once, and does it require physical contact or just eyesight? nice pony I like it! Who is it of?
CarolaDavar she/her Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 i can draw anyones epic ocs as ponies, because I'm great at drawing those.
Edgedancer he/him Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Putting this back up because I would like more than one opinion on it, and it got lost in the flood of question posts. How would she target objects, touch or sight and could she turn her powers of when something is in another object? i can draw anyones epic ocs as ponies, because I'm great at drawing those. Uh, we finally reeled in an artist. Out of curiosity, are other options also available?
RippleGylf she/her Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 How would she target objects, touch or sight and could she turn her powers of when something is in another object? Touch. I'm a bit confused by your second question, could you provide a scenario? Also, Abnormal cannot affect objects larger than a car.
Edgedancer he/him Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Touch. I'm a bit confused by your second question, could you provide a scenario? Also, Abnormal cannot affect objects larger than a car. Abnormal uses her powers on for example a rope and lets it pass through a safe, could she then just make the rope solid again so it breaks open the safe?
CarolaDavar she/her Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 If anyone needs a drawing of their ponyfied epic, I can do that Yes!I'm so grateful

RippleGylf she/her Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Abnormal uses her powers on for example a rope and lets it pass through a safe, could she then just make the rope solid again so it breaks open the safe? If she stops her powers, the rope would become fused with the metal of the safe wherever it was when it became solid, so I don't see how it would break open the safe. However, she could use her powers solely on the door of the safe, and break it open that way.
Stormgate he/him Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 So, in Astoria, I want to establish an Epic named Whiskey who can turn water into alcohol. Any type of alcohol, but whiskey is easiest. This guy runs his own little empire of bars and pubs. I have no real plans for him, just that he runs every bar in Astoria. I bring this up to be analyzed. Things tend to get lost in this thread.

It wouldn't but from your description I couldn't tell wheter it would do that or for example break it open, so thank you for answering my question.
Edgedancer he/him Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) I bring this up to be analyzed. Things tend to get lost in this thread. It didn't get lost, I already answered you. Every bar, definetly no. Edited January 19, 2016 by Edgedancer
CarolaDavar she/her Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 The amount of ppm (posts per minute) on this thread, is WAY high
Stormgate he/him Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 It didn't get lost, I already answered you. How about he distributes his alcohol to most bars in Astoria? And few people actually know this is happening, nor do they care, because hey, they've got alcohol.

Because of the Financier it isn't really hard to get by anything specific, so there isn't much reason for there to be a secondary supply route for something he could just cover as well.
CarolaDavar she/her Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 should i put Shatter shot on the Epics of Oregon page?
Edgedancer he/him Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 should i put Shatter shot on the Epics of Oregon page? You can do that. I would also aks you to write a segment where she actually uses her powers, to set down some details and make sure there's no missunderstanding between what you meant and what we think you meant. Do you already have an idea in which location you want to put her?
CarolaDavar she/her Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 nope, what locations are there, and what's happening in each?
The Swan Dragon he/him Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 I've been looking through some of the RP's, and they seem like pretty massive constructs, even just per post. What size of comment is reasonable? And how many "I really need someone here but they don't need to stay" characters are allowed? I'm used to the kind of RP where you've got a few people bouncing around maybe single paragraph sized replies, generating a story. Basically, I'm just pretty confused as to what is expected of each person in a given RP. Thanks! Bai! ~Wpx
Clockwork he/him Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 So, I posted my Epic profile on "Epics of Oregon" but no one has given me feedback, so I'm going to post it here for feedback. I'll edit the other one later. This includes a scene with his powers. Name: Chasmfiend Age: 23 Appearance: Has a very angular face, and eyes that are slanted like an elves'. His ears are noticebly pointed, and his hair is stained violet from his beasts, blood. His skin is marbled with violet as well, but is mostly a pale silvery color. Primary Power: Bestial Creation Only able to create an enormously large 18-legged beast that has a nearly impenetrable shell. It has large claws on the front four legs, and it's carapace is spiked all the way down, and has a large emerald in its chest. If killed, he can summon it again in 15 min. He controls it with mind control, but can only control it. Secondary Power #1: Earthshattering Can cause the earth to split open, creating a very large canyon or chasm large enough for his beast. It takes him a good 15 min. to fully open one. They do not close back up again. Secondary Power #2: Property Enhancing He can enhance an object's properties, making it harder, sharper, stronger, or such. He can also do this to himself or someone else to make them stronger, faster, or such. Secondary Power #3: Healing He heals quickly, and his touch can increase the healing speed of another person. Weakness: Extreme storms/disasters cause it so his powers don’t work, but Chasms and Enhancements continue. (Example of Extreme Disaster: 7.5 Earthquake, Lvl5 Hurricane, LvlF4 Tornado, etc.) Outfit: A very large suit of enhanced armor that is nearly unbreakable, and an extremely large enhanced sword that's very light and can cut through nearly anything like its air. Positive Traits (and Corrupted): Honorable (Completely Negated), Patient (For traps, not lines), Protective (of Himself) Negative Traits: Pessimistic, Secretive, Ireful (Easily roused to Anger) Before Calamity, Darren Jarnot (JAR-no) was an starting architect that was trying to build walls and buildings that could withstand Hurricanes, Earthquakes, and whatever else earth threw at them, so that he might finally feel safe. When he turned, he ended up tearing down his structures, and moved to Oregon, where a lot fewer large storms happen. Scene for example: Chasmfiend was looking at the sunset. It was a nice pink that day, and he could finally stop traveling. His beast was lying down next to him, asleep. He had arrived in southern Oregon, and was a little northwest of the town McDermitt. Not quite to where he was going, but closer. A lot closer. He suddenly heard the shot of a gun, and felt his armor get pushed forward. There would be no dent; his armor had never let him down, and probably never would. He got up instantly, looking for the source of the gunshot. There, to the west- on that mountain, He thought. The beast stirred slightly. Wake up, you brute. Chasmfiend told in his mind. Quicker than one would think a creature this large would be able to move, it stood on sixteen small, pointy legs, and four very large, clawed ones. After him. Another gunshot. Tiny splinters of carapace flew from the creatures’ head. It didn’t slow or waver. Not unless it gets shot in the eye, and then it uses smell. The sniper, a normal human by the looks of it, turned to run, and suddenly ran into a large man suited in metal. “Y-you! How?” He stammered. Chasmfiend brought his sword up, and slammed it down, but the human rolled to the side first. The sword hit stone, but kept going, until the entire blade was buried. Chasmfiend drew it again. The man had gotten out a pistol, and shot through the faceplate. Chasmfiend picked the man up, and the man saw a glimpse of the horror underneath. His face was silvery, and marbled with purple. The wound had hit his eye, but was closing rapidly. Chasmfiend ripped his head off, and threw the body over the mountain side. The beast found it, and ate it. Come, He commanded. He stretched his arms out, and slowly, as the earth creaked, the ground opened. The beast went first, and he lay by the beast again. Time to finish their rest.
