Voidus Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Impact is quite good. Probably the lower levels of professional play. Neverthere would be good but not to that level. Scribbler and MV probably barely know what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I originally thought that we would call it Lost Vegas after Epics took over, but Vegas autocorrected to Vegans while I wad writing Nate's backstory, and I really liked it so I presented the idea. It was supposed to be a joke, but we canonized it. EDIT: I just got this image of Pro playing random games against Conn as a regular occurrence. Pro would have no idea what he was doing but would still make all of the right choices, and the real game would be trying to call Conn out on his cheating. This is totally going into WHOOC. And may be a real sequence eventually, but they might both die in Operation Stalemate, so IDK. Edited October 1, 2018 by Sazedezas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Young Pyromancer he/him Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) Idea: Epic chess. All powers allowed. No direct killing. Indirect is fine. If you die, you forfeit. Bloodlight: reset your last move. Blank/Typhon: that pawn was actually a queen the whole time! MV: Why can’t you move that piece? And why is mine moving instead? Con: can cheat and it’s mostly fine. Jacklyn: be... distracting. Kokichi: instantly become a master strategist, but have a chance of overthinking things and losing to a scholar’s mate. Quietus: kill your opponent using your field. Whoops. Also, I just realized that because of their powers, Jacklyn (and probably pro) could be infinite skill wells for Viktor because their skills regenerate! Though the gain would decrease exponentially. EDIT: GUYS! MAILLIW’s BACK! Edited October 1, 2018 by The Young Pyromancer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: GUYS! MAILLIW’s BACK! Actually, Bloodlight can only reset individual objects against themselves, not each other. His powers wouldn't really help unless it was a very long game and he released things at strategic times, in which case his pieces would start reappearing on the board. Sadly. Arachnerd would just look really cool doing it, because her spiders could move the pieces for her. There is absolutely no telling what Karabiner could do. EDIT: And yes, Pro would be an infinite skill well, because his skilla are momentary anyway, but Viktor would keep them permanently.

The Young Pyromancer he/him Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 I would still like more explanation on what the tendrils DO when they touch things. Also, I would like to know where he comes in. Rending? Been hiding all along? Another refugee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ark1002 Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 Uh, he moved from Australia. What they do is act like really hot metal normally, unless he tries, which they will then just superheat and destroy them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Young Pyromancer he/him Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 ... Can we say they are really hot fire instead? Because physics protests. That is not how plasma works. Also, can we say reduced gravity instead of flight? So he can still bound between buildings? And just confirming, the tendrils aren't a PI, correct?

+Ark1002 Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 (edited) Epics don't follow the laws of physics. They are supposed to be able to grab things if he focuses, but are normally more like fire. I kind of wanted to do a scene in space at some point, which is why he had antigravity. I think it should be he can manipulate that, anywhere from normal gravity to zero gravity. Edit: What does PI stand for?

Voidus Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 Epic powers do broadly speaking obey physics to some extent, just with a few additions made along the way. Sometimes they ignore normal physics but usually only when that is directly required for the power to work. My other issue is that if you change the properties of a substance enough then you can no longer reasonably call it that substance. Eg. if there was an Epic who could make fire solid, but also it changes colour to an opaque yellow, smells and tastes of cheese and changes shape to be cheese-wheel shaped, then that is no longer fire it's cheese, so just say they can turn fire into cheese.
