Voidus

They're hold up in a school, it's in a non-specific area of Portland at the moment as I'm not entirely sure where the three factions' borders are roughly.

Everyone take refuge in the Community section, I warned you all this day would come. The Everspam approaches.

Voidgaze and Al definitely need a dinner date alone.

Well there'd be someone keeping an eye on the main players, so maybe they could organize an earlier strike against TT once AM has left.

They can attack whenever people are ready for them really, but more likely while everyone's sleeping, they're looking to do collateral not take High Epics on.

If she were ever made aware of this MV would go out with him just to creep him out more frequently.

I'm pretty sure he knows, he's mentioned it at some point I think.

Where do you think Soulswitch's Raccoon came from?

I like to think she secretly is the FSM

Once they know who he is Upgrade's not really an issue, he needs to be in physical contact but has no PI, so him in the middle of a fight would be dead very quickly It does give CM some strong capabilities if he opens the offensives but after the initial surprise rush is over Upgrade would be dead and Funtimes can put CM back where she found him

The Empire has several High Epics with a PI, TT is the best established, I think they all balance fairly evenly.

He probably would have used people if he was working under Koschei. So probably a mix of people and rats for missions, depending on what was appropriate and birds the rest of the time.

I think it would be a good match up, and it works for his backstory, he's been laying low for so long because he's afraid that whoever killed Koschei will kill him too.

Soulswitch is the only one of my Epics who could have plausibly met him, and he is the type to schmooze up to the most powerful Epics he can find. Up to you though.

Everyone who is anyone will be attending the beardapalooza later today

MV followed Backtrack into the room at mr. Terminations suggestion. "What's the next step in your great plan?" She whispered to Impact. "See what happens? I didn't expect them to have an Epic talk to us, maybe we can bargain with him." Her sister replied in similarly hushed tones. Backtrack pulled a chair out for her, she glared at him and took the seat next to it, allowing Impact to take it instead. The man across the table stared at them while drinking his wine, eyes seeming to take in far too much detail. The silence stretched out. Just when it seemed that Backtrack was about to say something the man spoke up. "So, Steven" he said "What brings you to the Dalles? And what's going on with this Lightwards down in Portland?" Steven? MV thought in confusion. Who the hell is Steven? She followed the mans gaze to Backtrack. "Steven? Seriously? You look like more of a 'Phil' maybe a 'John' definitely not a Steven" She rather liked knowing this detail of Backtracks life, when dealing with Epics, knowledge was power, any hint that might reveal a weakness had power over them. "Anyway, if you two are done with the Misogynistic displays of ignoring the women in the room" She had no idea what misogynistic meant, Impact probably would, but she'd heard it from some feminist Epic once. "We're here to get as far away from a certain creepy Epic as possible, we were going to stay in Portland but a certain... event changed our minds. You seem like a useful guy, but definitely not leader material, so you take us to whichever Epic rules here and we promise not to riddle your body with sharp pointy things." Impact groaned in the seat next to her, impatient with her sisters antics as always. Well it's not like she was getting anything done.

Funtimes used her powers on a tree during the FuntimesxNighthoundxLightwards fight didn't she? I'd say it should work on corpses, similar limitations to Steelhearts.

So what's our current plan for everyone, do we want everyone to form teams, or just leave everyone to wander and cause mayhem. If anyone wants some canon fodder Epics just ask

She can stay behind with the research teams and take care of domestic matters in their HQ, but yeah they're definitely going to be fighting so if she's adverse to that the MEE is probably not the best place. Yorrick will give everyone a skull to hang on to and fly them up You could give him a threshold, once he reaches five deaths his powers start increasing, but that would just be completely arbitrary

Let me guide you to the nearest dark alley.

Not showing up for me either Either this is the cruelest prank ever or it's been taken down.

I'd say so yes, but it would probably change back to normal once it returned to being a limb.

Stitch will need to stay alive, but I think all the others are fair game.

I finally get over my most recent bout of CH only to move straight into panic attack season. Why can't I have a normal brain?

Purple Phoenix grimaced at Nighthounds reference to his 'pet' but tried to keep himself in control, finding himself glad that the man had simply decided to move on without further incident. "Ok, really, tell me that the conversation between you two wasn't going to destroy half the museum, because from my perspective it was heading that way." said the tie-dye woman. She threw another ball to the side where it exploded, some kind of shrapnel from the explosion hit her and the other ball she held slowly shrank as she healed from the wounds. Black harms, white heals, got it. His mind busily filed the information away, he never knew what might come in handy but it was mostly just an old reflex from his days of studying Epics and trying to unravel their abilities. "Will you Stop blowing things up?" he scolded. "This museum is already laced with explosives, one wrong move and we all go plummeting hundreds of feet before meeting a very abrupt end, and trust me when I say it's not a fun trip." He was as angry at himself as he was her. Why did I put so many explosives in a flying museum again? Sparking Protector and his over reacting. "We may have been having a disagreement but trust me, if I'd wanted to destroy this museum I could, I wouldn't waste time yelling about it." Out of the corner of his eye Phoenix saw a small creature scurrying through the forest, one whose camouflage was more suited for the urban city below than this prehistoric jungle. "Soulswitch" he muttered, recognizing the raccoon as the same one that the Epic had used while reporting to Penumbra. A small tendril of darkness snaked towards the unwary Epic who seemed more interested in Aldo and Traveler, the shadow snagged Soulswitch's leg before he could flee and dragged him out of the tree. "And what are you doing here?" He asked the small creature, which was squirming about in a very human manner.
