Kobold? Would shooting Timeport with a motorcycle be in character for Aldo?
-
He is not a sympathetic or nice character, no. Although I am curious as to whether or not Funtimes and Aldo could pull that one off.
-
Shot to death….with a motorcycle? As in, someone fires a motorcycle from a gun and it tears through his chest, killing him? …. I had no idea Funtimes and Aldo hated him enough to team up for that one.

I thought it went Boink?

Incredimazable? I think you spelled "insane" wrong. Case in point: "incredimazable" is now one of the words added to my phone's autocomplete. But seriously, thank you. You're all incredimazable to roll with and add to the insanity.
-
Doubtful, but don't count anything out. Backtrack and Quota began as joke characters, after all.

Having a Bad Day? Stop here for a Good Rant!

Hope it gets better soon. That sounds terrible. -
With his luck, it'll look like the McDonalds logo or something. Not sure how you could get that sort of scar from a bullet wound, but this is Backtrack we're talking about. Saccharine, Funtimes, the Unicyclist (eventually)...

"Seriously? That's what you're going with?" "What do you mean?" "Didn't you see the banner?" "What banner?" "The one that says 'Happy And Then Koschei Died Day'? Apparently, they celebrate by doing something Koschei would never do or allow. This year it's wearing colored sunglasses." *whimper* "I'll never be cool." She'd be in good company, with all the Yanderes this game has.

Who votes colored sunglasses become a Thing in The Dalles?

She was a Question thread exclusive who could make music play whenever she wanted a dramatic entrance. Deathgale/The Metal: Death Metal Deathwish/Nighthound: Nightwish
-
Between Soundtrack and Shinysparkle, MV is going to have some serious competition. She'll need to make a move before Backtrack becomes the most sought-after Epic bachelor in The Dalles (and no, I never thought I'd type that sentence).

That will be rather….cryptic. Just placed a hold on the Way of Kings ebook at my library. (That way I can read it during slow hours at work….and at stop lights…and while waiting in line….) Though I doubt I'll theorize, as Warbreaker systematically dismantled all of my theories as I read until I had no choice but to go with the flow.
-
Oh, right, that cryptic reference. I should keep a notebook of cryptic references that I can consult while reading Stormlight. (Honestly, though, that's part of what I love about this site—all the cryptic references whenever someone picks up a new-to-them book. )
-
Yes. Yes, I am. (Which cryptic reference? There were so many I just started taking everything said to me while reading Warbreaker as a cryptic reference. )
-
Hey, Kobold. Remember how Remington viewed Lightwards' love of Spam as evidence of how deeply deranged he was? Well, if you want to take his derangement even further, a Facebook link took me to some "foods" he could profess to enjoy…. Warning: Do not read while eating.

Vondra the Panda would be quite worthy of wearing the traditional Brown Fedora of Awesome. In other news, I just finished Warbreaker. O.O Perfection.
-
Too bizarre? In an RP where weather reports are two steps and a competent reporter away from reporting pancake showers, followed by powdered sugar blizzards and a strong chance of getting murdered by a hungry raptor and raised back to life as the zombie slave of a green-hatted necromancer? …. Now that you mention it, a belly button self-destruct button would be far more humorous than the idea of a self-destruct button deserves. I mean, really. The only thing a character with a self-destruct belly button could say when pressing it is "Boop," which doesn't exactly fit the drama and tragedy of the scene.

Reparation opens up an interesting possibility, namely: can he rewind time, five seconds at a time, to take an object backward? I think he could, though it would take quite some time, since he's limited to five-second bursts. His silencing and deja vu don't affect him, only those he's looping. So he could reasonably keep looping people and retain full memory of each loop. Do not open if you haven't read Warbreaker.
-
Ray/Deathgale: Death Ray. WHY DID I NOT SEE THIS BEFORE?
-
Thanks! Voidus came up with the original idea; I just built on it. I got it….after I Googled it. The effects of a mid-loop death would depend upon whether he was inside or outside the loop. Outside, he would die and the loop would break. Inside, he might be able to avoid it, if he caught it early enough. Since it's the same five seconds, that would give him time to dodge a bullet if he heard it coming, or get out of the way if someone named Steven Vondra or Remington Springfield jumped out from behind a tree with a garrote or something. (Haven't quite decided exactly how this will go down, so that's not technically a spoiler. Just two of the more likely people to try something like that. ) He would have to catch it within his five-second limit, however; otherwise, he would simply relive the seconds before his death until his minute expired. Which would be useful in that he could warn others, or determine the identity of his killer and send his associates to avenge his death, but wouldn't do him much good in terms of surviving the attack. Stepping into the looping zone would create a paradox and break the loop, which is why he was very careful to ensure his loops were not interrupted. (Of course, if they were, he could always create a new loop with the newcomer inside.)
-
Thanks! Me neither…. Yes. Given that his powers only affect a certain (relatively small) radius, he tends to only use them on isolated individuals (for assassinations, he simply causes them to relive the same five seconds until an associate can shoot them) or on rooms full of people. He reserves looping rooms for making a getaway rather than assassinations, as removing one or more people from the loop creates a paradox, thus breaking the loop. (I still haven't decided whether Koschei accepted this limitation at face value, or if he insisted upon testing it. ) Sorry RL has been taxing, Kobold. Take your time; we're in no rush.
-
Here is Rewind's profile, open for criticism. (His powers are a little wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey, so if you see any snarls, please don't hesitate to bring them up.) Also, one of his powers is a reference to something many people in this game enjoy.

Are the pigs carrying or wearing any objects whose friction she could alter? On another note, I wonder what kind of powers Epics named Fridge Horror and Fridge Logic would have…. o.O RUN FOR YOUR SECRETS LIVES!
