Works for me. There's a lot of fun potential to play around there.
On the power control bit, that's the tricky part. The samer power the hounds are based on also allows Nighthound to fine tune his power in his own body and things like that, so it depends if it'd recognize the Nighthound personality as the original in charge or default to whoever is controling the body right now.
Well, we do have somebody with a Talent for making new pages.
Edit: Or we leave it to Winter. That works.
I don't think cooperate would be quite the right word, but they'd need to arrive at some arrangement somehow, so the general idea works. Which leaves the question of how much control Nighthound gets over their physical actions. Like, he'd probably be in charge of the fighting and at least able to leverage his powers some but is the proposed motivator implant for example something he could force or something he'd need to blackmail her into by refusing to heal her otherwise.
Nighthound... character arc... cooperate. I don't think these words work the way you ant them to work.
Also fashion. Nighthound is going to be a stickler about dressing properly, so she doesn't emberass him in front of all the other Epics.
Really, the big question is how we'll handle tossing the control back and forth between each other.
Eh, open chest, put motivator into important organ, make removing it straight up fatal without the healing factor. Problem solved.
Pretty much what I was about to ask.
Is it weird that Nighthound is the guy that's definetly going to vote for growing their hair out? Using super powers at that.
That is a good question. If the Tayahound bit is what we're going with that would depend a good deal on @Drake Marshall . And that's assuming he wouldn't prefer to keep Taya Nighthound free after all.
