[KnightOfNight]

Scion IDIDMYTIME
So what's our team name?

 

[IDIDMYTIME]

KnightOfNight Scion

I dont know, I'd let either You or Scion choose. But the Uncanny Lucha Delights sounds weird enough to fit what our group is right now.

 

[Scion]

IDIDMYTIME KnightOfNight

I can dig the Uncanny Lucha Delights as a team name, unless either of you wants to vouch for another name.

With that said, going to look at the sheets I have received so far.

 

[KnightOfNight]

How about Nextwave?

 

[Scion]

KnightOfNight - Also a fine choice. I'm gonna be neutral on the team name so settle it with Logan. And then on your sheet, Spicy good to go. And I see that you, well and the others from the migration kept the older format. I do not blame any of you for that sake of convenience.

Arne - Marvel Boy is good to go. As for Asgeir, biit hesitant since he feels like a bit too heavy of a hitter, maybe tone him down just a twitch. Also notify me about what you would like to see from this variant of Next Warriors as you want to lead it, or if you just are going to keep it as nickname for Marvel Boy and his homies.

IDIDMYTIME - Logan is good to go. For Taskmaster, could you clarify exactly what sort of guns he has on his person? And then just as a discretionary warning you might not get a whole lot of player interaction going down the path of evil, as I am not sure how many are going to want to follow that path instead of the righteous way of heroism.

 

[IDIDMYTIME]

Scion - I will specify what guns he does have, also yes i would actually see Taskmaster as a secondary, maybe even tertiary villain.

KnightOfNight - Nextwave sounds cooler and has a nice ring to it, it seems better.

 

[Karcen]

Would a silver surfer type be to heavy even if given the cosmic hunger ?

 

[Arne]

Scion Marvel Boy is actually more of a heavy hitter though? I mean, stats wise Asgeir looks quite a bit stronger but since his 6 in energy projection is referent solely to his capacity of using different kinds of magic - being pretty much standard for every sorcerer - rather than offensive strength (specially since I plan to keep him as a Loki Agent of Asgard kind of character, using magic for supplementary stuff with little to no offensive power) and other than that he's pretty much just an above average Asgardian.

As for the New Warriors... Well, considering it was pretty much an unrecognized young hero gathering at first and then became pretty redundant as most of the members joined the Avengers, I'd rather keep it as a more lax group that sort of recruits superpowered teens with more obscure origins to train them and try to prevent them from becoming villains and stuff like that.

 

[FistOfTheBorkStar]

I'm still in, and I figure I'll stick with Moon Knight.

 

[Scion]

FistOfTheBorkStar - Apart from also engaging in the sake of convenience sheet of yore, Moon Knight looks good. Well as good as someone who has the Moon God shacking in his head can be anyway.

IDIDMYTIME - Right, thanks for clarifying that. And just wanted to let you know that is a risk following the path of evil. Taskmaster is good to go.

Karcen - Yes. But feel free to think of other neat ideas, there are a lot of Marvel things out there.

Arne - Oh well if the warrior is the one you consider the heavy hitter and stronger than the sorcerer, I think I'm going to need to also put a blockade on them for the time being as well. But since I am here let me go some details that bother me with the wizard besides the general vibe they have a slew of hats to wear, while the warrior was a fairly standard model of hitting things.

- Skofung: I'll start with the fact this weapon basically Namekian Guru's whoever happens to be holding the damn thing, without needing any sort of prerequisite to do so. Mjolnir does the same yes, but in that case it requires a good amount of prerequisites to judge you worthy of holding the damn thing. Then its ability to deal ever-lasting wounds unless treated by mystic aid; I have a feeling it'll just lead to more bleed outs than anything without letting those who go against, via the harder attempts to heal through magic, which based on this is the only way to heal, as apparently super science would not work.

- The Sorcery: Here I'll just ask, what is the limit? Like what objects can he create, does this include actual living things? What is a realistic illusion, are we taking this to holodeck levels of hard light? It is not that I have a problem per say with sorcery but it seems a tad too vague, and I do not know how far you might go with 'great quantity of mystic abilities'.

Then I'll jump back to the general slew, if your intent is to use this as a support character, why do you need for them to also possess things like super strength or durability? Why not just focus on the main intent of sorcery?

And then noted for the New Warriors as the scared straight program of sorts. Which is a pretty neat and sensible idea when you get down to it.

[Karcen]

okay just wanted to check i know some people don't like those types because of power

 

[Scion]

okay just wanted to check i know some people don't like those types because of power

And I'm glad you checked. Yeah I'm trying to gun for an Avengers-y sort of vibe right now, you know fairly powerful but not too powerful.

 

[Karcen]

yeah that's why i am going to try to balance it with the cosmic hunger

Answering in order.
Skofung - I can easily nerf the cutting ability if you seem that as necessary since I do realize what is the point of worry there - though the intent was making it harder to heal by conventional means rather than impossible - but the Namekian guru like ability without worthy enchantment is actually more of a purposefully included disadvantage than a perk? I mean, it's pretty much the same deal as the ultimate Thor's mjolnir. By lacking the enchantment, literally anyone with enough skill or luck can take it and use it against him, since he isn't the only one who can wield it.

Sorcery - I can actually make a detailed description for that one. Only made a resumed one because I feared the info dump might be a bit to massive.
Answering your questions doe, he's naturally limited to inorganic objects of small to medium length and the illusions are fundamentally mysterio tier - basically remarkably realistic illusions that can deceive view and even induce hallucination to a certain extent (in the sense of making enemies more prone to ignore the inconsistencies) but not tangible at all, being more annoying to deal than actually dangerous.

As for the support part, I think you misunderstood what i meant by that one. What I meant to say is that he'd mostly make use of his abilities as an asgardian rather than being a pure sorcerer, using his sorcery mostly for supplemental purposes. I decided to go for that because I wanted to make q remarkably young asgardian sorcerer, so naturally he is far from being as capable as most other sorcerers in the verse due to lacking the unholy amounts of experience that makes their absurd power levels plausible.

I just copy and pasted my character sheet for Kyle so if there's anything I need to change just let me know.

you porting Pandora too? Cause, Like, she's mentioned in his bio.

 

[Normal_Is_Boring]

Oh true. Ummmmmmm I think I'll just stick with Kyle for now and if I want I'll bring her in later I will. I'll take her out of the bio for now.

 

[kasigi]

Sentry's sheet should be done tonight.

 

[Karcen]

i am not yet done but well there she is thus far

 

[kasigi]

I'm trying to figure out how old the Sentry would be at this time.. I can't seem to find anything regarding his date of birth. Of course he's capable of making himself look younger, but. Can't find anything.

 

[Karcen]

I would say 50 to 60 as he is like 30ish in the comics I think

 

[Scion]

Aaalright looks like I have some more things to go through. (And that being said I'll also need to get to getting the proper stuff up soon me thinks.)

Arne
Nerfing the cutting ability would be appreciated. As for the 'it being a disadvantage'; allow me to present to you the crossbow vs the longbow. Back in the olden days, English Longbow men had to be trained essentially from their grandfather and had vast lineages of nothing but training to be effective at using the weapon, which was a good weapon. But their importance quickly faded when further industrialization happened with the invention of the crossbow, as anyone could just pick it up and shoot it and it would do pretty damn good damage. List of sorcery would also be appreciated. And then as for his Asgardian bits, why is he better than an average Asgardian in his terms of strength, durability and all that? You know it'd be fairly easy to solve by making the sword a more thematic element and having the powers derive from that, ala Thor. And this is just me, do you have a cooler sword?

Normal_Is_Boring - Well apart from say, making it fit in with the new sheet; Kyle is good to go.

fin - Mind tossing in the specs for the suit in the number bits of the grid? Quick edit: Caught the specs proper, slipped past me the first time apologizes for that. Will get back to you in a tad.

 

[Zerohex]

Alright, dropped my WIP that's really just the powers and gear to outline what might need reviewed or not. For those of you from the prior thread, seriously look at that and tell me if you see why shit takes me forever.
