Of Heros and villains (OOC)

[aires163]

It's directed towards you. My bad for making that mistake Kohaku.

[Buzzwolf]

Aires, I just went on assuming Alice was still with Kevin in the alleyway with Kohakus character since you haven't posted in ages, I still don't know what happened to Takeru...

also, black, small error in your last post...she never said anything about the 'high school project' that was internal thought process, not something she voiced. I'll try to explain any of the events happening if anyone has some confusion, I know there's a lot happening...sorry bout that ^^;

I was in the alleyway, oh and Alice and Kevin are not brother and sister. They are actually both friends who have a crush on each other. While I have the time I think im going to finally get off my lazy ass and make a character sheet for Alice. Also if anyone is unsure about anything just ask. If your confused its best to ask so we can get that fixed right away. I do wonder where Takeru ran off to, and I was hoping Kohaku would have posted by now so that Alice and Kevin could try to escape, and while Alice would not be killed by the cold (last I cheeked vampires, both half and full, are immune to cold temperature.) Kevin can. wow now im just rambling, but anyway, sorry if I have not been clear enough with my posts.

[aires163]

Shade I have a question. Where were Alice, Kevin and Riley dropped off? Are we inside? If so, can it be a warehouse? Im sorry if its a stupid question, im just not sure 100% where both mine, and Kohaku's character's are.

[Shade Leshyr]

omg, Im so sorry, I totally spaced on where I had dropped them off T_T I meant to drop them off in a park a few blocks away, but if a warehouse fits more into your plans, that's just as likely.

[aires163]

Ok I finally got off my lazy ass and did the character sheet for Alice. That vampire girl that has been tagging along with Kevin

Name:Alice
Age:16
Gender:Female
Powers:Vampire-ism, She is best described as being like a half vampire in the fact that she has the enhanced speed and strength, as well as inability to be harmed by the cold, but due to the whole half vampire bit she is not harmed by direct exposure to sunlight. (but she is still sensitive to it.) She does require blood in order to sustain herself, if she does not take in enough blood she starts to loose energy, and may even temporarily slip into a comatose like state
Species:Fox
Appearance:Her fur color was originally orange but it turned blue after the incident that gave everyone their powers. She has white areas under her chin, and on the front of her torso, as well as a white tip at the end of her tail. She has shoulder length hair.
Personality:She is sometimes concerned about the well being of others, she also has a crush on Kevin, but she is a bit shy when it comes to relationships. She also might beat herself up (metaphorically speaking) over mistakes she makes. She also hates to see other people suffer.

Sorry about a short post, just didn't know what to write really,
Just wanted to keep the ball rolling.

Oh, and please tell me which of these would be acceptable powers (Basically as Jack is messing with his brain to purge Black into a physical form, he unlocks his minds full potential, the same happens to black but in his physical strength, but the downside is that they cannot stray too far away from each other for too long otherwise their powers begin to weaken, I was thinking that they were a tag team really )

Trauma: Attacks the foes mind with a ferocious force, causing it to become either paralyzed or that the foe experiences something similar to a delirium
(However, the User is left with a crippling re-projection that takes a lot of energy)

Illusionist: Tweaks the foes mind to create fake replicas of allies or objects or used to make the foe seem like they are losing their mind
(long contact and exposure time needed and can drain attention, so attacks become less consistent and inaccurate)

Controller: Take control of the mind of the foe for a short period of time and has the option to leave them with a panic attack which blocks out
all rational thought and is incredibly debilitating.
(Unfortunately this is only to be used sparing unless the user wishes to experience a full mental breakdown)

Although all of these powers are strong as they are irritating, they also have huge re-procutions on Jack when he uses them too much, so he is limited to use them sparingly.

First of all, you're talking not only cloning, but a brain split AND transplant, may e the first of which is feasible, but the splitting of personalities to separate bodies is waaaaaaay beyond anything in the rp universe, and even further ahead of reality...tinkering, I can understand, maybe some books or some shit may be able to guide him, but the suscessful seperation of personalities, cloning AND total mental release is so far beyond believable for a HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL character, let alone one who skips school frequently, For him to pull something off that even a pro would t know where to start, I have a hard time convincing myself that's even halfway plausible...

Second is the powers, none of the ones you suggested come even close to following what your character has developed this far, poison, armor, spines, and additional strength, those fit...none of which balance with ANY level of mental powers, all of which are high level, or highly focused, very powerful abilities that would not normally be paired with anything else. The problem with pairing those, is you get the perfection combo, mental lock the opponent and just stick a spine in em and it's game over, there's nothing interesting whatsoever about it.

I can understand you're trying to advance your character, but I think you need to look at another route, and definately a different set of abilities for progression.

And aires, a bit of advice, don't keep your characters solely focused on each other, try fighting your villian against other heroes, or even the other villians if it's so suiting to his personality, but it becomes such a monolouge and hard to keep you in the action when you jam all the reactions from an entire back and forth into one post, or even when your reactions become entirely limited to reacting only to your own characters and no one else.

Granted I'm not a huge fan of the teleport move shade used, I can honestly see why he did it, and I really didn't leave him much choice since you didn't respond in between.

[Black Garuga]

Okay, fair enough, I get where your coming from Buzz, and I shall try to come up with something a little less out of the unknown.
I would like to stray away from the kind of strength and poison techniques and something a little more...subtler, or different, like a support type, but I don't know what attributes to give it.

[aires163]

I appreciate the advice Buzz, one thing that worries me though is if Kohaku has vanished on us. Im not 100% sure how to get my characters away from another one who wont respond, but perhaps im just being a worry wart and he will post soon. But anyway, you could say that Karl is fair game now and any one here is free to kill him, just make sure that when he dies he poses something of a challenge to your character.

[Buzzwolf]

well, fer one, I'm not gonna try an kill yer character off unless that's your intent, if you want a finishing fight for him, then you gotta play out his death...what I was trying to get at when I said that, is that he seems to be around every corner for alice and kevin, it's as if that's his only purpose in the entire RP is so that they have a villian...which in turn causes you to not engage with the other characters and villains as well because you've got a loop stuck on em. it becomes challenging to weave it all together when there's independant loops for all a players characters in one...you could literally write an entire battle sequence between your characters and never have to involve anyone else...

as for kohaku...I have no idea, my advice would be to keep from starting anything big with him till we know if he's coming back or not, but if you do get it started and need help getting out, you generally have four options (Finish the battle out on your terms, but leave the fate of the opponent unknown; finish it but stagger away as if retreating; an interrupt causing the combatants to part; or simply pass over it and onto events following) but if you're stuck you can feel free to shoot me a message about it and I can help ya get out of it if ya need

I'm starting to wonder where all our players keep going...I see Rat around still, but he's quit posting after he'd asked me for help ages ago, Takeru quit after Ember dodged his first attack and I haven't seen him since, and Kohaku has been in and out for...I dunno...I think it was cause video games kept distracting him or some shit...

post will be up soon, trying to get the Arc finished up in the next few posts im thinking...gonna have to figure out where I'm gonna go from there...

yanno...with some rewriting for errors and drops...this RP might actually make something of an interesting web comic...or an amusing one at least XP

and as for you black...Poison is pretty much the most subtle approach you can get...and support roles fall into the way a characters played, not necessarily the powers of the character, like how some strength types are huge attack/offense right in your face, others are played off, on an even higher strength level, as support roles, like the way I run anima compared to Kings role in the way he fights. it's all in the way it's used...it's gonna be hard for black to have any sort of support role since he doesn't work with anyone, he has no attachments and is basically fighting against the entire world. most of his powers are gonna have to be focused around him fighting for himself, not for others...he's just far to self centered to be able to pull it off without a whole 'platonic reversal' so to speak...you'd need to completely flip his personality...granted it can be done, but ya gotta be careful with it otherwise you can completely destroy a character and a plotline trying to do so...my advice, maybe work it in as the arc comes to a finish, the final fight of the arc, the boss, the morals and shit, learning a lesson that kinda thing...if that's the route you wanna go, otherwise work on a developing a power that is more suiting to how he is now...

Holy crap! That is something that I would love to see become a reality, but I cant draw worth a crap and I just dont have the heart to ask anyone to do it. Oh and I do plan on getting Alice involved with the fight between you and shades character in the alleyway if that's ok with you.

[Buzzwolf]

I'm fine with it if you're trying to get in on the fights, just be careful how you do it...i'm honestly not even sure myself where your characters are at the moment, just that they're in a 'warehouse'...

and I may see if I can't get some designs or some shit done on this...may be interesting...good practice if nothing else

[Shade Leshyr]

hey Aires? Bit of a problem with your last post: when the teleporter took your characters away from the fighting, he went outside of the ice vixen's radius. At minimum you're a few blocks away from the fighting right now, so there wouldn't be any snow for her to see.

Alright I see...I'm going to go fix it now.

EDIT: I...think that should be good for now.
