If I had a million dollars, I'd buy you a green dress (but not a real green dress, that's cruel).

“So yeah, are we doing my plan? Or does someone else have one?” “Unless you want me to chop down the tree, sounds good.” @Dragonheir

“That’s amazing. We might have to try that… Could you target moving metals? Like, ones attached to people?” @Lotus Blossom @The Stormfather @Unintelligenius @Dragonheir

“If you tap your Connection, could you Pull on my metalmind?” Jaksyn gestures to the metal cap covering the end of his left arm. “You could go around, then Pull me up to the top, where I’d attack them.” @Lotus Blossom @LightRinger @The Stormfather @Unintelligenius

“Could it just be the Gamemasters?” Jaksyn eyes the people around them.

“Do we just wait then? Is there anyone we know we can kill? This is too chill for the Hunger Games.”

Love how you summoned yourself.

Jaksyn creeps over to Tondon. “She’s with us now? What can she do? Be careful, I heard they pay you better in the Casino for killing allies. She may be playing us. What’s the plan? Harmony, I sound like you.”

Jaksyn tries to slash her, but fails.

Jaksyn looks around, and brandishes his axe. He wants to yell for Tondon, but knows it’s a bad idea. @Edema Rue @Dragonheir

Jaksyn was thoughtful for a second, then smiled at Corin. "If they want a show, let's give them a show." He flipped his axe, then failed to catch it, underestimating its weight. "Rust and Ruin!" Jaksyn walked outside. @Edema Rue @Dragonheir

"For now, I'll stick to my strengths." Jaksyn gathers the supplies and turns to leave. "In the future, will we still get rewards for shared kills?" @Edema Rue

Love this thread man! Some notes and ideas, plus counterarguments cause it's fun. I’ve always thought a Lurcher with a bladed weapon made mostly from aluminum would be super powerful, like a sword where the tip and handle are steel. (Or similar to Captain America’s shield, but with a 100% guarantee to come back) They’d be able to throw the weapon through/behind the person, then Pull it back through for extra damage. On a front with no downside, Coinshots are able to Push allies out of danger or at enemies; Lurchers can bring teammates closer, or even launch them ahead. Now, Coinshots have less situational restraints when it comes to "flight", so to speak. They can bring their anchors with them, and place them at their convenience. The ground is typically always there, and able to act as a secondary and greater anchor, so Coinshots never have to worry about something supporting them. Lurchers, however, require high or distanced anchors, as well as the continual uncertainty that a lamppost or something may not hold them. If a Lurcher puts too much faith in a structure, they risk a lot of property damage. Sure, it's not the worst downside, but they also won't be able to move as they wish. This relates to what I said above, but I've also wondered for a long time how uncomfortable it would be to drag alongside a building before arriving at the top. Maybe they treat it as a super powerful belay system, and run up instead. Lurchers have the convenience of being able to Pull on anchors to slow them down, whereas if a Coinshot drops an anchor incorrectly, especially in a flat area, it will slide out at an angle. Anyone who's played with magnets, sat one on a table, flipped the other one around, and tried to push them together knows what I'm talking about. This can be a major hazard to the Coinshot. Last of all, Lurchers have the potential for spur of the moment Hemalurgy. Imagine, you have a Tineye held in front of you. With enough practice Pulling off-center of the body, (@Dragonheir, help me out with the real term), you could spike yourself quite easily and safely. Pull the spike through them into you. That's all I could think of off the top of my head.

“A charged spike? I want to be a Swift. But really, just the axe and metals for now.” @Edema Rue

“What do you need?” Corin asked. “Like I said, I need chromium shavings or beads, and an axe. Or… no, you’d never have that.”

“Nah, you’re off the hook.” “Thanks.” Jaksyn drums his fingers on the counter, and stares Corin down. “I don’t have all day, and the tributes likely won’t kill themselves.” @Edema Rue

Jaksyn waved his one arm. “You look… well. Sorry about the whole ‘disappearing into the storm’ thing. You still have to kill me?” Without waiting for an answer, he turns back to Corin. “How about those supplies?” @Ancient Elantrian @Edema Rue

I think he would be more of a villain character... maybe Rashek? The fact that you don’t believe Kelsier is a villain shows how different we are.

Guys. Just imagine Tom Hiddleston as Kelsier. You’re welcome.

“So I’m allowed to ask for anything I want? I need more chromium, preferably shavings or beads, and an axe.” Jaksyn nervously looks around. “The Gambler’s not here anymore, is he?” @Edema Rue

Jaksyn enters the Casino. He looks at the man behind the counter. “Was that your voice?” @Edema Rue

That’s amazing. Gimme 70 seconds.

Naw man, I love Brian Sanderson. @SONONE knows what I mean.

Is there any doors open for the casino? @Edema Rue

Hey guys, sorry about being AFK for the weekend, unexpected camping trip. @Edema Rue and @Dragonheir, could y’all explain what I missed and am needed for real quick so I can retroactively RP through it?
