Quick question, how does the tattoo deal with spiritual healing? Like Kaladin couldn’t get a bridge 4 tattoo because he would breath in stormlight. I imagine that  gold would have a similar effect

Basically Kaladin couldn't get the bridge 4 tattoo based upon his perception. Meaning that he thought that he didn't deserve to have it or some other reason. Example: stormlight should have healed his brand but it didn't.

Wob for yah

Questioner

Why doesn't the Stormlight heal Kaladin's slave brands?

Because, in the cosmere, most healing works by how you perceive yourself.

The Ghostbloods tattoo works on perception and alignment of the three realms. Theoretically in this case as I dont know if is cannon.

SHHHHHH! Ene, if he doesn't believe his character is the best, HE'LL SNAP AND DESTROY US ALL!!!

Uh... Yes, Lord Meeker! Yes! The cap. 65! Of course! Grovel! Grovel! Sniffling sound!

Misunderstanding fool of a gancho!

Intelligence "cap" is 65 = mastermind. My character has allotted all his points 150 to the intelligence skill.

Yeah, I'm cool with that. Should be fun to watch you puny mortals try to dodge an entire army of ticked-off space marines 

But really, it's fine.

Combat wise/ point value that I do not have up because these three characters are expendable right but would exceed yours marines.

So. How about we talk about that prisoner.

We aren't going to bring it down. If you dont mind there is going to be a prisoner aboard that we break out instead of bring the ship down.

"Our first order of business is to get onto that ship. After that you are going to need to get into the mainframe or a service hub to get me the schematics of the inside. Third the assassin and Berk are going to the engines while our spy gets us more information. Questions?" The mastermind asked pacing.

@Emperor Stick

Just make the correcting you said about the pain tolerance and I thi k you are good.

Name: Neo (just Neo)

Physical Characteristics: 5"5 with bright (almost neon) green hair. Has dark forest green eyes and wears a tight suit along with blades on both armrests and bladed ice-skates.

Investiture: Second Edgedancer Oath (Abrasion and Progression), Bestowers blood-lens monocle. Can see investiture with his left eye due to encounter with the nightwatcher, it left him with a big weakness however.

Skills: Intelligence (Intelligent) , Hand to Hand Combat (Average), Acrobatics (Skilled)

Equipment: Very sharp Ice-Skates, Bladed Armrests (chull seen in physical characteristics), pouch with seeds and monocle, Spheres

Weakness: Notice, The above abilities might seem a little strong but this does lower it a lot. His weakness is due to a disease, a low pain tolerance, VERY low pain tolerance. It can be up to the point where if he's shot, whilst waiting for his stormlight healing he can be completely stunned because of the pain shock. This gives him a huge weakness to guns, and just sharp objects that can penetrate me. You could call me a glass cannon, but hes not that great at direct fighting either, he's more supportive than direct combative. Additionally, due to an encounter with the night watcher, his left eye flames blue whenever he uses investiture/his monocle which makes spying etc a lot harder.

Family: Ditched

Home Planet: Roshar

Backstory: Neo was done, no more of this. He ran out the Ice Rink and into the forest. He had his backpack with normal clothing and his pair of iceskates tied around his hip.Nobody understood what he felt, he felt as if no-one listened to him. It's always "Why cant you work for a job that pays better Chrysts rather than that stupid figure skating, you will end up homeless when you're older and will die alone". It really ticked him off. His parents never listened to anything he had to say, constantly baraded with insults and on how terrible he was. Whenever he told someone else, "Oh why do you care so much? At least you have rich parents do you not know of those people tha--" Shut up, He thought in his head. He couldn't take it anymore. He was deep into the forest now, He didn't even know where he was going. He took the metal blades of the ice-skates and held it against his neck. It was going to end here. Suddenly, he heard  a rustle in the bushes, but was too tired to care. Suddenly, a completely dark black face with black hair and black eyes popped out of the bushes. For some reason Neo got scared of this and tried to run, however the dark green and vaguely person shaped, crawling on the ground with too-long arms started moving, and fast.

Neo wakes up around 2 men. He wasn't tied up but clearly still in the forest. His head felt dizzy and he overheard, "Well, he looks quite the wealthy type and looking at his spheres I believe that seems the case, we can hold him hostage for some good loot" one guys said, "No, he seems to important, his spheres are already a big win, better kill him off now and dump him in the river so we'll be fine".

Neo was scared, he didn't want to die anymore, he had his ice-skates on for some unknown reason, one of the guys pulled out a knife and went for him. He took an immediate dive, not being very agile with the ice-skaters on the grass. After dodging it he tried punching the guy in his side, however his friend slammed him against a tree and managed to stab him in his legs. C-c-can't t-tolerate the pain . He didn't know what to do he didn't want to die. He wanted to see the world. "Say the words, Neo", a voice deep down said. He wanted to live, he muttered, "Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination" Suddenly, he turned super bright, his hair radiated green and felt something in his left eye. Suddenly, the surrealism took over him and he fought with all he could. The environment became his Ice Rink, his grounds, his territory. He jumped out of the way in their moment of blindness and jumped out of the way. It felt normal, natural. One of the men sprinted towards him, looking unfazed and Neo performed a triple flip loop and slashed his chest with a perfect landing. His friend cried out in rage and stormed towards him. He did a triple lutz jump, spinning in the air elegantly before kicking the guy away. 

He had a new life, a better one, one worth remembering.

Guild: Canton of Combat

Personality: Charismatic and funny. Tends to be a perfectionist to topics he cares about (Ice Skating as an example),

Appearance: (might add one at some point)

Couple of things. Total skills and power are 170 total. The weakness I would say balances that out. The only thing o would like changed is the boon and curse. That to me isnt balanced well enough the boon is too powerful for the curse.

“Thanks, so when will the mission commence?”

"Thirty minutes. Be back for debriefing."

"That I can do. You can grab those now if you'd like. They are in the shop just next door." He said.

"What equipment would you theoretically need?" The mastermind asked.

"I'm not quite certain. I only know what information my spy has given me. The battleship entered orbit without warning. There is little I know. But I can make educated decisions and guesses." The mastermind said. "Berk do you think you could hotwire the ship to come down just outside the city?"

"Its fine dont worry. I believe the best course of action is to infiltrate the ship and cause the engine to completely fail. Sabotage the engines and blame it on who ever is flying that thing. Do you think you could do that? I'm going to need all three of you on this." The mastermind said.

"We are yours to command." The assassin and spy said in unison still kneeling.

"We dont have that much stornlight. I am sorry to disappoint." The mastermind shook his head.

The mastermind waved Berk over. "Tell me how would you bring down this flying behemoth?"

The cloaked man turned. "We welcome all who desire to maintain balance. Stand. I have a question for you."

"Do what feels natural. He won't judge you for your respect or lack of it." The assassin said kneeling head bowed.

The spy did the same. "My lord we have returned."

"Of course. Bad manners to keep the boss waiting." The assassin replied.

They walked in, pushing the dough le doors inward. They found the Mastermind looking at the outward schematics of the ship that orbited above the city.

30 minutes ago, Emperor Stick said:

Berk and his lifeless got out their weapons. "What's inside?"

"The mastermind." The spy said raising an eyebrow. "You are in no sort of danger but you are right to be nervous. He's a scary man."

They stopped in front of a run down warehouse.  A spiked meeker sat on a stack of boxes eating some dried meat. On approach it stood up on its hind legs and stared at them before disappearing between some cracks in the buildings wall. 

"We are here" the assassin told Berk, speaking for the first time. "Prepare yourself."

@Emperor Stick

"Dont worry everyone on our team has a purpose. We will find you something important and impactful. Tell me what experiments do you do?"

"Then what skill set do you bring to the table Berk?" The spy asked as they walked.

The assassin nodded his acknowledgment but didn't say anything.

@Emperor Stick

"Nothing the boss can handle. For starters I don't know how we would get up there."

They were joined by a man armed to the teeth with nearly every projectile weapon possible.

"This is the assassin I mentioned earlier. This is Berk."

"We'll see in a moment."

Once they left the building the spy looked up at the sky. 

"That's going reeeeeaaaally upset the balance."

@Emperor Stick

"On closer inspection your randomness is quite orderly looking at the big picture." The woman sighed. " your stalling tactic is being used against you. You are giving my partner time to finish his job. Shall we go Berk?"

She laughed again. "I didn't say we'd eliminate all Investiture only ones that disrupt the balance. If Berk uses it for maintaining the balance he'll live. I am atoning for the sins that cause imbalance, I cant do that in a cell and I'd like to see you try. End neutral Investiture is the balance we did not decide and there isnt god in the end neutral art only a union of positive and negative. We only aim to enlighten, and some people need it knocked into them."
