I'M THE CONDUCTOR OF THE POOP TRAIN!

Watch out kids, when you hear that TOOT TOOT! in the distance you know trouble's a-brewin'.

 

[ManicMuse]

Sooooooo can we start posting at like 12:01?


*Stares @welian*

 

[ViAdvena]

It has been 4th June for about 10 hours for me xD

 

[welian]

xD


The probably is that the timeskip... kinda comes in five parts. And I still have to assign everyone to which scene they'll be responding to, since I don't trust thirty players to split themselves up evenly.

 

[yoikes]

BTW you know what I can't wait to see?


Superhero styled group/tag battle move


Like Blink teleporting Colossus up into the sky, who then use the momentum to strengthen his punch.


Or Captain America, who uses his shield to deflect Thor's lighting.

 

[ManicMuse]

xD

I vote, anyone that has not responded by 'midnight' gets tossed into whatever group needs them. Are you going to inbox the group scenarios or do tabs in a post?


(If I keep adding cute faces, maybe Welian won't get mad at me for being a pest.)

 

[welian]

xD I'm working on a compromise at this exact moment.

 

[The Oldest Blueberry]

Stares @welian with beady, dry eyes





I wanted to make this dramatic, but since I've been pestering you about it most of the night you already know what I'm getting across by merely tagging you in this post.


Do the other stuff first tho, cuz it's considerably more important. Like, actually important. If that's coming off sarcastic-sounding like I think it is.

 

[welian]

Leo shut the fuck up you're gonna get to play your robot. Now go the fuck to sleep.


EDIT: Leo I love you I'm not actually mad at you

 

[The Oldest Blueberry]

/dramatic breath of relief


NGL, I thought I touched a nerve too hard there.


Now I can rest easilier...after I take care of some other business.

 

[ViAdvena]

Hype cookie is too mainstream, so have this hype mochi instead

[Dusky]

Could I get some suggestions on what I have so far? The only things I've yet to do are rank, statistics, and relationships.


Her History got ridiculously long, sorry guys. >.> That's why I had to set it apart.

• Sweet
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Hannah has a kind heart and wishes the best for most everyone around her. She does her best to bring happiness to others and always has something good to say about someone. Her anxious mindset can dim the shine of this trait, however.
  
  
  
  Shy
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Hannah doesn't dislike people and in fact does want to be around them, but she's generally too fearful of saying the wrong thing to show much initiative in this respect. She is quiet in the company of others and may become tongue-tied if spoken to.
  
  
  
  Aesthetically Inclined
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Hannah is very fond of fashion and related practices, but she especially likes knitting despite its reputation as being tacky. She enjoys creating things and is also known to spend a lot of time on decor, doodles, crafts, and so on.
  
  
  
  Anxious
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Hannah will get worked into a tizzy about some of the smallest things, sometimes to the point of paranoia. She does not very well "roll with the punches" and it takes a lot of time for her to calm down enough to think rationally about something. She is quite likely to remove herself from situations whenever a stressor comes up.
  
  
  
• She was born to middle class parents in a very normal household. Her early childhood was unremarkable, as was her primary school experience, but if details must be given it should be noted that Hannah was rather sheltered, very loved, and somewhat spoiled. Her easygoing character is as it is more despite her parents than because of them; they frequently bent to her every whim, expect when they feared some sort of harm would come to her. Their fear infected her, and things that many girls her age are branching out into and exploring still make Hannah nervous.
  
  
  Her parents saw talent in their daughter and were sure to foster it. She was enrolled in many artistic classes, finally settling on sewing and design as a more steady occupation, and she always knew her parents approved of her dreams and would help make them happen. So she attended college and emerged at the tender age of 23 with dual degrees in business and fashion. She has spent the last two years working for much less money than she is accustomed to at a boutique in Baltimore, wondering how to regain some forward momentum.
  
  
  She has spent the last three and a half weeks adjusting to her new power and looking over her shoulder and crying herself to sleep at night. She made it through puberty without any powers manifesting; it took an event. One singular event to trigger her latent potential.
  
  
  She'd stepped out of the alley door for a breather, both from the stale air of the bar and from her friends' antics; being the designated driver suited her fine since she had no interest in drinking, but she didn't like the crowd, didn't like dealing with people when their judgement was impaired.
  
  
  He'd stepped out from the shadows.
  
  
  With her face pressed against the cold pavement, she could see a spider's eyes glinting red in some dark corner. Even in this situation, it terrified her - she had never been able to keep calm where spiders were involved - but she couldn't tear her gaze away. She watched the spider, and it watched her, glassy eyes unmoving, witness to her tragedy. It helped her make her mind go somewhere else, somehow. When he was done, he zipped up and walked out of the alleyway, whistling nonchalantly. She crawled towards the wall and slumped against it, sobbing, still watching the spider. All she wanted was to be so small that she could disappear.
  
  
  And then in a way, she was. Her many eyes roved about; she could feel the vibrations of her attacker's footsteps as they moved away. Eight narrow legs extended from her abdomen.
  
  
  And she could sense them around her in droves; spiders, dozens of them - no, hundreds of them. If she'd been in her human form, she might have run screaming, but in this form, emotions seemed just a little dulled, thoughts just a little simpler. And in this form, she didn't feel so alone.
  
  
  She had somehow managed to wait it out, to linger in that filthy alley until she turned back into her human form - legs stretching, melding into her sides, eyes receding into her skin, thin stick-like appendages gradually taking on more form. Her clothes had not transformed with her; quickly, she put them back on, careful to hide the tears in them from before.
  
  
  She had a plan. Nobody would know about this - about any of this. She would walk back into the bar. She would say hello to her friends, pretend her core hadn't been violated, drive them home when they were ready. She would never speak of or use this power again.
  
  
  (Even then, she could sense the spiders. So many spiders. It made her skin crawl, and she wondered if she'd ever learn to ignore it.)
  
  
  She made her way in to do just that, but the minute she saw the concern and worry on her friends faces she lost it. Just as she was bursting into tears, the world grew and expanded once again, becoming hazy visions and vibrations. Dancers' feet were stomping near her. Terrified, she climbed up one of her friends' legs, who mercifully was too drunk to fully comprehend.
  
  
  The rest of the night passed in a blur of form changes, tears, and explanations, culminating in a cup of hot cocoa in her house with her best friend doing her damnedest to sober up while soothing her. When things calmed down - when she finally started to feel like she could go on - the conversation turned to powers.
  
  
  "Will you notify the Commonwealth?"
  
  
  "I... I didn't want to, but..."
  
  
  "But?"
  
  
  "...I can't control this thing. And it's not going to work out so great if I can't hold a conversation without turning into a s-spider."
  
  
  "There's Aegis, right?"
  
  
  "Yes... There's Aegis."
• Other Character's Name
  
  
  ---
• Arachnothropy
  
  
  Hannah can assume the form of a spider. By default, she shapeshifts into Araneoidea Nephila - a Golden Silk Orb-Weaver. These spiders are also known as banana spiders for their yellow pigmentation and as giant wood spiders because they're, well, giant. They tend to be bigger than a human hand, when including legs.
  
  
  Golden Silk Orb-Weavers are known for their gold-colored silk thread, which is a feature no other arachnid has. They weave elaborate and beautiful webs, often very large, involving layers of protective webbing and a sticky, spherical shape in the middle where the spider usually rests. They have been known to incorporate designs into their webs that seem to serve no purpose other than aesthetic, and this phenomenon is in fact the inspiration for the well-known book Charlotte's Web.
  
  
  Trivia aside... Hannah can take the form of other types of spiders, but at great effort, and her movements are somewhat impaired if she does so. She can assume her default arachnid form at will with little to no effort, but only seems to be able to maintain the transformation for a half hour at a time. Her clothes do not transform with her. When she takes the form of a spider, she can perform all the acts which that spider normally could, including spin webs and produce and inject venom.
  
  
  When in spider form, Hannah is more simple-minded, a side-effect of attempting to project human sentience onto such a small neural structure. She will experience emotions at 75% of their usual strength and may struggle with abstract thought or hypotheticals.
  
  
  Sub-Power: "My spidey senses are tingling!"
  
  
  Hannah can also sense nearby spiders. In human form, she can sense spiders up to 1320 feet away, or a quarter-mile. In arachnid form, this distance is doubled. It is speculated that different spider species may have different ranges.
  
  
  Limitations
  
  
  
  
  
  • Arachnophobia: Considering everything about her abilities has to do with spiders, being absolutely horrified by them isn't very helpful. In particular, Hannah's ability to sense spiders is more of a tortuous distraction than an asset.
    
  • "Thwack!": Spiders are impressive and scary, but when push comes to shove, they're fragile. She could easily be offed by an enemy's rolled up newspaper when she is transformed, or even by a teammate's accidental stumble.
    
  • Under Pressure: When Hannah is experiencing an emotion to an extreme - which isn't frequent but isn't exactly uncommon either given her borderline neurotic tendencies and her recent trauma - she will transform outside of her own will. This can be inconvenient, though sometimes it facilitates her escape from stressful situations.

I am very excited about this character! I love the thought you put into how the powers came about. Even if it was dark and gruesome. Down the road, assuming my character Gavin Dabbs is approved, we should plot together.


I honestly could not read much on the super powers. I was accosted by a spider in my shower this morning. I am still really freaked out by the sight of them. Even if it is just a picture.
