So can we all agree that pretty much everyone knows where CM is now? And are wondering why he has a jet.

Yeah but some of them could be quite difficult to kill, no one can kill the PrankMaster, they're all too embarrassed. PrankMaster: A human whopee cushion, he can cause anybody to become flatulent.

Anyone mind if SoulSwitch recruits some of the less battle-adept minor Epics from the great list?

It was growing dark as SoulSwitch left the dilapidated bar, still in the body of the old man. He already knew about most of the major groups of Epics in Portland, he'd been considering joining one of them but Altermind was too unambitious, he threw away so many people who never passed his tests, forgetting that in a fight between armies the cleverer soldiers were not always the ones who won. Corpsemaker was the only other real choice with any major power, and he refused to join one of the minor rag-tag groups in the city like those Slontzes who'd taken over the museum, but Corpsemaker gave him the creeps, an Epic who could invalidate your powers was not someone you wanted to get involved with. Then again, this Penumbra was just as creepy in his way, but at least if it all went to hell he could still jump into something else when Penumbra tried to kill him. Heading over to another bar he tried to organize all the new information he'd learned, Vanilla's might pretend not to get involved in Epic affairs but they always knew more than they let on, and they were perfectly willing to tell a kindly old man over a pint what they knew about any new Epics in town. As far as he could make out the rest of Purple Phoenix's old group had set up their own area, 'the empire of light' they'd called it, ironic then that they were now fighting a shadow Epic he supposed, but while he was interested in collecting news of the powerful Epics he was more interested in seeking out any minor Epics who were unaffiliated, they might not have the raw power of some of the High Epics, but subtlety could cause just as much damage as a street-levelling explosion could if applied correctly, no one ever expected a mouse to be able to poison their drinks but SoulSwitch had killed three separate Epics with that trick when they'd come close to his hideout. Kicking a nearby rat out of his way he entered the next bar, hopefully he'd be able to find someone useful who could complement his and Penumbra's abilities, or at the very least find a minion of his own to rule over.

I like it, I can usually decide within about a page whether or not I like someone's style and I definitely like this, hope to see more in the future!

I think most Prime Invincibilities are passive, they don't need to be deliberately activated, they just kind of seem to happen.

What would happen if he reanimated Soulcast meat? O.o

So he could potentially reanimate an entire forest if need be?

If the restaurant needs to be cleared in a hurry Hammelin can always send some rats through.

Does it have a wooden table too? I am keen for some more treesplosions from Lighwards in the future.

0-Aloof, but not mean 1- Annoying, crowds everyone 2- My favourite, 2 is quiet, gets along well with most of the others 3- A bit jealous I'd say, doesn't get along with others 4- A bit... flirty? 5- baby of the group, everyone loves five 6- Always serious, tries to get everyone to behave. 7- The crazy one, absolutely hillarious. 8- Sort of like 2's older brother, quiet but still associates with others a lot. 9- Hates six, bit of a teachers pet. 10- Life of the party, gets on with everyone and makes sure no one's too mad.

Yeah that's probably a good idea, you guys could use the Collaboration thread (Shameless promotion) for the dinner if you want.

Just thinking it's almost time the day was over, there's been a lot going on in Portland today

Kobold can I just say that comic was awesome! I was going to do PP with a beard but I wasn't too fond of any of the ones in the creator, might have another look. So who's up next in Oregon?

Awesome, when PP gets all his personalities sorted they can be engineering buddies

I do have to ask, is Funtimes secretly an Engineering genius or just randomly awesome? (Or both)

I also just read that Gravitonics explicitly cannot cause flight :S we may need to add some giant fans or jets or something to the museum.

Well they'd be spread all over the city and Newcago might have more given it's ruled by 1 Epic so it's more stable

I've been re-reading steelheart and I realized that there's an approximation of Epic numbers in there: Adjusting for the population differences between Chicago and Portland I'd say there'd be around 1-2 thousand Epics total, around a hundred High Epics and between 10 to 20 with Prime Invincibilities.

I considered Mis-Shapes

For Altermind: Richard Sanderson: Reality

Big Al is obviously 'The Muffin man'
