Zeebruh Zeebruh No that's fine, honestly the 20 word thing is meant as a soft cap on how many things you can tack on to a character superpower/complexity-wise. "Eats a lot and is really good at biting" isn't really complex or excessive, so I think it'll be okay. Also I don't mean to nitpick but you do realize the average person's tongue is already prehensile, right?

CallSign CallSign Oh well yeah that sounds pretty fun too. Specifically electronics or just anything made of conductive metal?

Also sorry about IC guys, I'm chipping away at it but I'm not the best at openers and I'm not sure if I'm coming onto or off of a depressive episode here. Point is, it may be a little lackluster when I get it up but bear with me because once we get rolling things will be pretty cool.
 
Right looking these over is taking longer than I expected.

GrieveWriter GrieveWriter I like it, it genuinely feels like a concept I'd find in something like Hammer Session (but, you know, with superpowers), only issue I have is that you're using some murky language on your drawbacks bit (seems to, probably limiting himself, etc.) and while hiding your powerlevel is all well and good it's not really something you should do on an objective benchmark like a CS. Also if you wanted to number for flavor reasons it'd be 4480 since level 4, block 4, prisoner 80.


Why is everyone in this jail a kung fu master jesus christ.

Gotcha gotcha.

I'll admit, I pretty much stuffed all the extra details from the Quirk explanation into Drawbacks to appease the word-limit, so I'm not surprised if I wasn't able to get my point across. Hiding a power level wasn't really my intent, but I've been told I could drone on before so I can't really deny how it looks in translation. I gave it a bit of an edit, and changed the Number. Honestly I originally just thought up a Number that I liked saying out loud, kinda overlooked the relation to cell and block.

Also, maybe there's a mandatory tai chi session every other day? Peeps got a lot of time to keep healthy in the joint. Casual Kung Fu practice could do wonders for the joints. Just throwin' it out there.
 
GrieveWriter GrieveWriter No see the point is more that the CS is, you know, objective. So it's not "he says his power does XYZ" but rather just, you know, stating his power does XYZ with no ambiguity.

@slayerslade666 I'm giving this a pass under the assumption that regeneration is specifically damage to the skeleton itself and not the surrounding tissue.

Nenma Takashi Nenma Takashi Yeah, that quirk's both extremely broad in usage and more to the point it doesn't really feel like something that'd lead to fun, interesting scenes. I get that you want to play totally not Junko, and word powers can be cool, but maybe try branching out a little? Like, just off the top of my head, you could go with a quirk that let's your character make physical word balloons when she talks so she can create barriers when she does evil monologues and reveals her master plan to people or, like, shout at people to create a spiky one she uses as a mace. Just something kinda basic and fun.

Zeebruh Zeebruh Yeah basic personal belongings are fine, just keep it reasonable. Also, while I am a great fan of Matter Eater Lad we got a 20 word max here on powersets here.

CallSign CallSign So he's a cyborg that hacks good? Cyborgs aren't really a thing as far as I'm aware in MHA, but having, like, USB plugs for fingertips that let him interface with tech would be okay. Dumpshock works fine as a weakness, though.

GinkyGotBack GinkyGotBack 20 word max but yeah I get the general idea of being basically that one rock guy from Part 8 so just the first sentence is fine.

eight eight 20 word max on powers, also power copying is for dorks

labyrinthine labyrinthine 20 word max I'm honestly surprised that this is that hard. Also I get that you want to be edgy and stuff but the facility only has five floors. I guess we can say she just took a sharpie to her jumpsuit to make it #6666 though. That's kinda interesting, gives her some character.

@CandidFox Seriously I'm not sure what's so hard about sticking to 20 words but just yeah can make people butthurt by staring into their eyes got it, clip off those last two sentences because being able to start riots on demand is not something anyone should have as a base ability in a prison. Also pretty sure pissing everyone off would just be manslaughter but then legality in the post-superhero age isn't something I really care to delve into. Also you can't be jailed for life at a juvie since it's, you know, juvie, but I get the general idea.

PlusUltra PlusUltra Dunno why you had the placeholder if you were gonna make a new post anyway but I see you went with taskmaster proper rather than psychic taskmaster or genetic taskmaster. You're fine, yeah.

@Quiet You may want to edit that drawbacks bit since you made a small typo with "like she was a balloon" but yeah we talked this over yer good.

Rock guy?
 
Oh, you mean the Aphex Bros from JoJolion. Yeah, I guess it's kind of like that, only he's not turning a weird stumpy rock hand into something he touches. He just teleports objects from one hand to the other.
 
Cell-mate situation I'm down for whatever really; PC or NPC. Just a matter of who could handle such unbridled cheeriness of a scorpion lady with really cool friends!
 
CallSign CallSign Oh well yeah that sounds pretty fun too. Specifically electronics or just anything made of conductive metal?
Hmm, that's an interesting idea. The latter would be pretty awesome, but I planned the character to be focused on tech and electronics. I could certainly see the quirk extending to any conductive metal with training and effort, but I wouldn't expect a friendless goodie-two-shoes nerd who got taken advantage of to have even started on that training. Plus, adding that possibility makes room for some fun RP details - he's kept in a metal-free room under suspicion of him having the capability and is under more scrutiny when not in the cell, much to his chagrin.

I say sure, let's extend it to all conductive metal, but limit it presently to electronics until he's trained for at least a significant period. That is, if you agree.

I see I see I see.

With but a few changes of wording my previous missteps will be overshadowed as my edited CS is reborn from their failures~

GrieveWriter GrieveWriter CallSign CallSign Alright that's all we really needed here, you're good to go.

PlusUltra PlusUltra No discord because discord is pure cancer and more importantly it won't let me in unless I feed it my phone number.

eight eight If you want it I can't really say no since power copy shows up in MHA proper, so you can just so long as you adequately do your thing in 20 words or less. I still think anyone who picks power copying is a huge dork forever and ever, though.

Also can confirm that yes, coming off the depressive episode rather than coming on. IC is up. Also realized I forgot to add the CS to character thread OP.
 
hi Shining Wizard Shining Wizard (wasn't sure if you already read this earlier, i didnt get a reply so i deleted it and saying the same things here, sorry if you have read it.) hi i tried fixing it (character sheet), is it okay now? i originally meant the "prisoner 6666" as an alias, and forgot to put the actual prisoner number in the "other" field. i'll just go with the sharpie idea uwu
 
I assumed Cassandra was already in so just posted a short blurb. (Also regarding her thinking about escaping, she is surrounded by both prisoners and guards who would want out so that's not helping. OOC I do have a idea how to do it, as well as a fall back should it fail that puts the blame on the prison funny enough)

Curious who she's going to get as a room mate or who wants to room with them.

Ah, I see. Welp, I've done the thing now and limited the Quirk description below the 20 word cap.
