Voidus Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 He's gonna make the ground perfectly smooth so there's no friction. How? That's Edgerunners power not Ozymandias', wasn't his just entropy?
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted March 3, 2016 Author Posted March 3, 2016 He's gonna make the ground perfectly smooth so there's no friction. It's still at least a two-hour trip by car, with much of it being on a freeway where the average speed can exceed 70 mph. So if he's going 50, he won't arrive for three or four hours.
Master Elodin Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 He'll wear it down to be perfectly smooth. Yeah, he can take 4 hours out of his day.
Voidus Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Also I think Salem's a day behind the Dalles at the moment which might be a problem.
Voidus Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 He'll wear it down to be perfectly smooth. Yeah, he can take 4 hours out of his day. Not really how entropy works, even very worn ground is going to have some friction. Actually double checking his profile isn't he a speed Epic?
Master Elodin Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 No, he's entropy. I would be fine with him having latent speed powers though.
Voidus Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 No, he's entropy. I would be fine with him having latent speed powers though. His listed profile: Ozymandias: Ozymandias (High Epic) Primary Power: Entropic Decay Increases the entropy of anything non-living that he touches i.e.: Rots wood instantly, metal rusts, buildings collapse, soda goes flat. He can control this entropic decay. So basically, his level of control is directly related to his level of concentration. The main focus is through his hands. More detail about the Primary Power: I should probably give a better explanation of the Entropic Decay power, though... It has two parts, General Decay and Specific Decay (I'll have to come up with better names for those...). General Decay is for taking down buildings. With General, Ozy can touch some large structure or object, like a building, and the entire thing will slowly decay. It will collapse, but it will take some serious time. The key of General Decay is that it refers to the whole of an object and its workings. So Ozy could use General on a gun and the gun would start jamming, rusting, and generally failing. General is much easier to control than Specific. Specific Decay is for dissolving dice, rocks, gun grips, etc. It is basically the same as General Decay, only more specialized and over a smaller area. It has more do with what exactly Ozy is touching. It is much harder to control, thus it requires more concentration. It also works faster, assuming the concentration can be had. If Ozy wanted to rob a safe, he could just push his hand through the safe door, powdering it, and get the contents in a very short amount of time. Again, concentration is key. Secondary Power: Speed He appears as a fast-moving blur to those watching. While Speeding, his vision, mind, and powers speed up as well to comprehend what he is seeing. They remain the same relative to him (and anything he happens to grab), but faster relative to those watching.(This was recently changed) Passive Ability: Healing Factor He heals much faster than a normal human. Small injuries heal almost instantaneously, while arms, legs, hair, nails, and teeth take longer to regrow. Passive Ability: Specific Decay Field An intense Specific Decay field that instinctively turns on whenever someone or something intentionally makes an action that causes harm to come to Ozy. Bullets dissolve upon touching him, buildings dropped on him get an Ozy-shaped hole burnt through them. (Clothes and shoes are not affected by this XD)(This was also recently changed) Weakness: PM’d to the GM. Personality Traits and Other Stuff: He likes to wear green shorts, flip-flops, aviators, and mussed-up hair. As for personality traits, humor, backstory, etc…You’ll see. I’ll add to this post as more becomes available shown in the Dalles.
Master Elodin Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Oh. Sorry, I only saw his portfolio up for adoption.
Voidus Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Oh. Sorry, I only saw his portfolio up for adoption. No worries. So I think just speeding there would work, though the time discrepancy might be a problem, because at current Salem time he's still doing stuff in the Dalles I think.
Master Elodin Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 (edited) Oh. So wait till tomorrow then? Edit: I don't see any activity in the last four pages of the Dalles, so I think it's not an issue. Edited March 3, 2016 by JerleShannara
Voidus Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Oh. So wait till tomorrow then? Not entirely sure how long that would take in real time to reach and I don't want you to have to wait for weeks to post, maybe start off with a post detailing his journey a bit?
Master Elodin Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Sure, I'll do that. Do I post it in the Dalles or Salem?
Voidus Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 I'd recommend Salem to keep the narrative consistent. If the day drags on too much longer we might be able to do a time skip and have his late-night arrival to let him interact with other characters.
Kobold King he/him Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Then, he stood up and sped away, that terrible, incredibly ugly structure toppling in his wake. I would have wanted to be consulted about this.
Master Elodin Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 oh sorry. It was just a small building on the outskirts. I'll change it if you want.
Kobold King he/him Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 oh sorry. It was just a small building on the outskirts. I'll change it if you want. No problemo. If it's on the outskirts it'll probably be lost in the confusion anyway. Welcome to the RP, and have a great time in Salem.
Master Elodin Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 (edited) Thanks! I'll do arrival in Salem tomorrow maybe, as I just posted my departure from the Dalles. Edited March 3, 2016 by JerleShannara
Master Elodin Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 No I know. I just wanted him to appear. Do I have to change that? I mean, it's possible that a dimensionalist could have brought him in but I'll rewrite it if I must.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted March 3, 2016 Author Posted March 3, 2016 No I know. I just wanted him to appear. Do I have to change that? I mean, it's possible that a dimensionalist could have brought him in but I'll rewrite it if I must. I'd say it could be an Epic coincidentally named Wit, but since this is The Dalles, Vondra would know about him and there'd need to be a reason for his being there. I say take it out.
Voidus Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 *eye twitches*Yeah Reckoners isn't cosmere so no Hoid cameos in the RP. Also led to a double line 'Some kind of mind epic, no doubt.'
TheSilverDragon he/him Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 So, just some questions here. First, I just want to make sure that Star Thief is ok, being as she is a child. Second, Is it ok if Converter reincarnates in Nashville, Oregon? Third, Has Star Thief even been approved yet? And fourth, Have I PMed anyone Star Thief's weakness? I don't remember.
Edgedancer he/him Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 GUYS I JUSY REALIZED SOMETHING: Project Amber isn't going to work. When Timeport teleports into objects, he makes the object disappear (e.g. If he teleports into the wall, then out of the wall, there's a Timeport-sized hold in the wall). With him on Corpsemaker's side, he would never let Corpsemaker just stay trapped in diamond. He would teleport around CM and remove the diamond. This is a problem. Not if they simply dumb Corpsemaker in the River. Seeing as how motivation to write GOOD has been eluding me, I'll say that it's probably best to give her as much to react to as possible, if that's okay with you. Alright then, send me a link to the doc and I'll start of with Kenshin.

Would you be able to copy the profile here just to be sure? You mean as a new setting or just temporarily?
