OOC Discussion

I am going to sleep now, it's 4:30am. The timeskip will likely not happen first thing in the morning. At least, not all at once like I had hoped for. Some groups may be off to a later start than others.

  Notes
  
  Danny is almost always bruised somewhere on his face or body to some degree, either fresh new purple ones or old brownish ones. He looks like he has been fighting recently all the time.
  
  
• Personality Trait 1/4 (Positive)
  
  
  Courageous - Danny has a marked history of bravery, putting himself in harm's way to protect others, such as an incident where he protected a toddler from an oncoming car when she'd wandered into the road. The aftermath was marred by the fact he demanded financial recompense from the shocked parents and then launched into a torrent of verbal abuse when they refused to pay him the $500 he demanded.
  
  
  Personality Trait 2/4 (Neutral)
  
  
  Independent - Danny has never felt the need to depend on anyone. Since the death of his father, killed in the line of duty, Danny has distanced himself from others and sought to find his own way in the world without the need to be close to anyone.
  
  
  Personality Trait 3/4 (Neutral)
  
  
  Headstrong - Danny can be like a bull in a china shop at times. Once he gets an idea or notion in his head, he pursues it doggedly to whatever end results. He's willing to undergo whatever is required to reach his goal, regardless of the hardship he has to endure, almost to the point of self-destruction.
  
  
  Personality Trait 4/4 (Negative)
  
  
  Foolhardy - Danny doesn't seem to understand the concepts of 'too dangerous', 'too tough', 'too strong' or 'too powerful'. He often throws himself into situations with a sense of determination that borders on, and sometimes crosses, the line of insanity. One such occasion was dealing with a gang of bank robbers armed with assault rifles, with near-fatal results on both sides.
  
  
  History
  
  
  Danny Travis' early history was always one of fighting. Born as a premature baby, his first months were of his constant battle to breathe another breath, to take another heartbeat. After he was out of that dangerous early stage, he came on well, although his health was always an issue. Danny has Von Willebrand Syndrome, a blood disorder that affects blood clotting, meaning he regularly has bruises (specifically over his joints, but sometimes where he bumps into things) and nosebleeds. He did not, however, let this condition stop him leading his life.
  
  
  He seemed to feel that conflict was the only way he could get stronger and escape the enfeebling condition he lived with. From kindergarten he was noted as often being caught in fights, instigated by himself or others. The fights were most often in response to bullying, either against Danny or others around him. His parents, Michael and Angela, were almost at a loss with how to deal with their youngest son, moving him from school to school to get him away from the bad situations he joyously embroiled himself in.
  
  
  Danny's eleventh birthday was the turning point, however. The family were waiting for Michael to return from work so they could all go out for Danny's birthday dinner, but the car that parked in the street outside was the precinct captain's squad car, not Michael's old Chevy. Michael had been shot while responding to a gas station robbery and had died at the scene. The captain, on behalf of the major and the commissioner, extended his condolences. A light went out in Danny's head as he stood with his mother and brother, watching his father's coffin being lowered into the ground. Where the light left, a fire ignited and burned through him. His A6G23 gene, thus far dormant, flared into life.
  
  
  The first documented instance of Danny's powers was at softball practice. Danny had been playing catcher against a batter noted for his aggressiveness. As often happens, words were said between the two in an attempt to psych each other out, but one particularly cutting jibe from Danny set the batter off and the older boy swung his bat at Danny's head. The bat connected with a lot of force, enough to have seriously injured a boy Danny's age. Instead, Danny took the hit without so much as staggering. He responded with a punch that hurled the batter fifteen feet across the infield, broke two of his ribs and dislocated his shoulder. Incidentally, Danny suffered a fractured wrist. Days later, a specialist diagnosed Danny with the A6G23 gene and his name was forwarded to the proper authorities. Since then, Danny has been in trouble on a daily basis. The most recent event had him in juvenile court where he was ordered to have a Limiter locked to his wrist and to attend Training Facility 108.
  
  
  Despite everything, Danny does not like superpowers or the Supers who exhibit them. He holds a special disdain for people who flaunt their abilities and withholds no amount of antipathy or abuse for other Supers. Experts believe this stems back to his father's death. After all, if Supers were so great, why wasn't there one there to save his life?

  Baltimore Police Officer Russell "Russ" Travis - Brother
  
  
  Angela Travis - Mother
  
  
  Baltimore Police Sergeant Michael Travis - Father (deceased)
• Main Power
  
  
  Energy Absorption - Danny's primary power is the ability to absorb energy directed at him and store it within himself. This can be kinetic energy from physical impacts or energy from other sources, such as electricity, fire, radiation or even sunlight. Usually, the energy he absorbs is dissipated without outward effect, but extreme or prolonged high level absorption allows him to trigger one of his two supporting powers
  
  
  • Supporting Power A: Strength Augmentation* - Channelling the absorbed energy into his arms and legs, Danny can augment his physical strength far beyond the bounds of his age and physique. During the events of the bank robbery, video footage recorded him being able to punch a felon hard enough to make the fully grown man strike the ceiling twelve feet above the ground after Danny had been shot.
    
  • Supporting Power B: Shockwave Dispersion - By channelling stored energy through the ground, Danny is able to create a localised shockwave with the effect of generating an earth tremor. This tremor can cause people in the area affected to be staggered and can cause damage to the ground surface and nearby structures. If generated within a building, the potential is that this power could cause structural damage of a significant level.
    
  
  
  Limitations
  
  
  • Weakness 1: Human Physiology - While Danny is able to absorb the energy of an attack, he is not invulnerable to attacks. A knife will still cut (see below) and if a heavy weight was dropped on him, it could still crush him. Additionally, his powers do not protect him from the energy he projects. So, while he could potentially use stored energy to punch through tank armor, it would be highly likely that the punch would also destroy his arm.
    
  • Weakness 2: Von Willibrand Syndrome - Danny is affected by Von Willibrand Syndrome, a blood clotting disorder that means he constantly suffers bruising and nosebleeds. A more dangerous effect is that even minor cuts are a huge problem as his body cannot create a scab to close the wound. Therefore, Danny needs to carry a can of fibrin sealant and often needs a blood transfusion or an infusion of Factor VIII.
    
  • Weakness 3: External Factors - Danny's superpowers only function if he receives energy from an external source. If no-one hits him with anything, he can't absorb the energy and power his secondary powers. If the hits he takes do not provide sufficient energy, he receives no benefit. Added to that, the dissipation effect of his absorption power is such that he cannot absorb energy and store it for periods longer than a couple of minutes.

  Notes
  
  
  
  
  
  
  She is often thought to be younger than she is. She tries to dress elegantly to counter it, but it doesn't always work.
  
  
  
• 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.
    
  
  
  
  

Wow. So cool! My first thought for codenames was Arachne from the Greek myth, especially since the story spins powers towards the 'curse' pole of the curse-blessing axis. Weaver works nicely though. Stats and rank look good to me. I won't touch upon history except that I noticed there was an autocorrect error of expect where I think you meant except early on. Relationships are tougher to suggest, other than the obvious mom and dad connection, but what I would dearly love to see for this character is a 'maiden, matron, crone' motif.


I know this is not a magical universe, but I can't help but think that Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos would take a personal interest in this girl if it were. Since it isn't though, what about this? What if she had in her relationships 'three mysterious women' fitting those descriptions who may or may not be real? I would lean toward post traumatic stress invention of her mind because then they can do things that seem impossible. Also @welian could use them to drop cryptic hints about the future if she wanted, as we suspect her of having done through Eden's visions. Then too there is the potential for a 'Tyler Durden' (or United States of Tara) type situation, where if there is somebody the plot needs killed say, Atropos could step in and take care of it (because that is her function, not like it is personal) and that would protect Hannah's mind from further shock. Maybe archetypal manifestations of the collective unconscious don't belong in relationships tab, but hey, where else ya gonna put 'em?


Welcome to AEGIS!

Oh, man, Travis is pretty similar to one of the characters I was picking between, haha.


*shrug*


I guess that just makes the choice easier xP

  Notes
  
  N/A
  
  
• Compassionate
  
  
  Not in terms of buying flowers or anything, but if someone is in trouble even if it goes against what he believes in. He thinks it is awful to not help people, especially if you have power. Might for right. He won't outright show it and most people wouldn't expect it.
  
  
  Scepticism
  
  
  He believes that there is always something more then what is shown. Sometimes can be seen as a bad or good thing. Hard to trust people, but good at finding things out. This trait is really what makes him a good detective. People react in different ways think he is either crazy or resourceful.
  
  
  Quiet/Introverted
  
  
  Owen likes being on his own. He can function in a crowd and can talk, but he would prefer being on his own. He won't go and talk to someone and if some approach him he will be defensive at first. It takes a lot to break through this. Most people will just ignore him because of it.
  
  
  Anti Authoritarian
  
  
  Won't and can't stand for any sort of government or ruling power and will do anything in his power to stop them. Extends to people who support and/or work with the ruling party. Even though who are submissive to them Owen views as not fighting back and giving up. Most people are apposed to this viewing him as crazy or paranoid.
  
  
  History
  
  
  Owen grew up in the suburbs. Nice home nice family. Dad Scott and Mother Ann. He sees them every once in a while. Owen grew up as a quiet kid, but a smart and tough one. He loved his westerns as a kid an still does. The heroes with no name roaming the land. Plus those detective films. Using the mind to stop the bad guy. Later one even he finds out he has superpowers. What could be better.
  
  
  Yeah being stuck in a government program by the demands of the people. Some other kids with powers had be causing issues around this time. He hated it. First of he was told he was class D. Great confidence booster. Always answering back. Always starting fights with other kids who said he should be 'happy and get over it'. Still the best way to get is to play by the rules. He is becoming good at hand to hand and gymnastic. Working of the stress. This 'Zen' focus thing that should with the supposed teleportation power is okay. He'll pass, Hopefully.
  
  
  He's gonna take down AGEIS. From the inside. The other students won't help him. There fools. Still he can't risk getting caught. Caught for what you ask? . Like the lone cowboy against the whole gang. When he gets out he might become a P.I. as well. That sounds fun
  
  
  Creating a feature less mask he could now use those powers of his. He will fight those in ruling and control. They have to be up to something. When he finds out what they will know fear.
• Scott Wright
  
  
  Owen's farther. The man kept his son going through his training times. Has been respect full of the powers and of his job. They still watch a western when Owen comes around for old times sake. Doesn't know about the Smoke Spectre
  
  
  Ann Wright
  
  
  Owen's Mother. She loves her soon with all her heart but will kept him on the straight and narrow even if it means a good smack. Has always supported him and always will do. She tried to get him out of training. She doesn't know about the Smoke Spectre.
• Smoke Control
  
  
  Owen has the ability to control and generate smoke. He can manipulate an area of smoke around him or make it travel along a set path. He can make it appear around someone. He can move smoke that is already there. The smoke cannot cover too big an area.
  
  
  • Limited Teleportation: This power can only be done under two stipulations. He has to completely focused for at least 5 minutes. The teleportation can be anywhere in a ten mile radius but the longer the distance the more focus required.
    
  • Immune to smoke: He can also see through the smoke he projects as well as breath through it without coughing.
    
  
  
  Limitations
  
  
  • Psychic Vulnerability: He is very substantial to attacks of a physic nature. Mostly due to his obsession with taking down AGIES,. His memories are also an excellent weak point. Manipulating these elements could cause a break down.
    
  • Ranged Opponents: Though very agile, Owen has a hard time fighting ranged and mobile opponents. He prefers unarmed hand to hand combat. His smoke can't take out opponents but give only distract them, giving him time to plan his assault.
    
  • Psychical Vulnerability: He maybe trained but he does still have the same needs an shortcomings of a human in physical terms. A good bullet will kill him. A good punch will lay him out. He can drown, suffocate, break his bones and the other lovely weaknesses a human has.

  Notes
  
  N/A
  
  
• Compassionate
  
  
  Not in terms of buying flowers or anything, but if someone is in trouble even if it goes against what he believes in. He thinks it is awful to not help people, especially if you have power. Might for right. He won't outright show it and most people wouldn't expect it.
  
  
  Scepticism
  
  
  He believes that there is always something more then what is shown. Sometimes can be seen as a bad or good thing. Hard to trust people, but good at finding things out. This trait is really what makes him a good detective. People react in different ways think he is either crazy or resourceful.
  
  
  Quiet/Introverted
  
  
  Owen likes being on his own. He can function in a crowd and can talk, but he would prefer being on his own. He won't go and talk to someone and if some approach him he will be defensive at first. It takes a lot to break through this. Most people will just ignore him because of it.
  
  
  Anti Authoritarian
  
  
  Won't and can't stand for any sort of government or ruling power and will do anything in his power to stop them. Extends to people who support and/or work with the ruling party. Even though who are submissive to them Owen views as not fighting back and giving up. Most people are apposed to this viewing him as crazy or paranoid.
  
  
  History
  
  
  Owen grew up in the suburbs. Nice home nice family. Dad Scott and Mother Ann. He sees them every once in a while. Owen grew up as a quiet kid, but a smart and tough one. He loved his westerns as a kid an still does. The heroes with no name roaming the land. Plus those detective films. Using the mind to stop the bad guy. Later one even he finds out he has superpowers. What could be better.
  
  
  Yeah being stuck in a government program by the demands of the people. Some other kids with powers had be causing issues around this time. He hated it. First of he was told he was class D. Great confidence booster. Always answering back. Always starting fights with other kids who said he should be 'happy and get over it'. Still the best way to get is to play by the rules. He is becoming good at hand to hand and gymnastic. Working of the stress. This 'Zen' focus thing that should with the supposed teleportation power is okay. He'll pass, Hopefully.
  
  
  He's gonna take down AGEIS. From the inside. The other students won't help him. There fools. Still he can't risk getting caught. Caught for what you ask? . Like the lone cowboy against the whole gang. When he gets out he might become a P.I. as well. That sounds fun
  
  
  Creating a feature less mask he could now use those powers of his. He will fight those in ruling and control. They have to be up to something. When he finds out what they will know fear.
• Scott Wright
  
  
  Owen's farther. The man kept his son going through his training times. Has been respect full of the powers and of his job. They still watch a western when Owen comes around for old times sake. Doesn't know about the Smoke Spectre
  
  
  Ann Wright
  
  
  Owen's Mother. She loves her soon with all her heart but will kept him on the straight and narrow even if it means a good smack. Has always supported him and always will do. She tried to get him out of training. She doesn't know about the Smoke Spectre.
• Smoke Control
  
  
  Owen has the ability to control and generate smoke. He can manipulate an area of smoke around him or make it travel along a set path. He can make it appear around someone. He can move smoke that is already there. The smoke cannot cover too big an area.
  
  
  • Limited Teleportation: This power can only be done under two stipulations. He has to completely focused for at least 5 minutes. The teleportation can be anywhere in a ten mile radius but the longer the distance the more focus required.
    
  • Immune to smoke: He can also see through the smoke he projects as well as breath through it without coughing.
    
  
  
  Limitations
  
  
  • Psychic Vulnerability: He is very substantial to attacks of a physic nature. Mostly due to his obsession with taking down AGIES,. His memories are also an excellent weak point. Manipulating these elements could cause a break down.
    
  • Ranged Opponents: Though very agile, Owen has a hard time fighting ranged and mobile opponents. He prefers unarmed hand to hand combat. His smoke can't take out opponents but give only distract them, giving him time to plan his assault.
    
  • Psychical Vulnerability: He maybe trained but he does still have the same needs an shortcomings of a human in physical terms. A good bullet will kill him. A good punch will lay him out. He can drown, suffocate, break his bones and the other lovely weaknesses a human has.

Oh wow an antihero!!

 

[welian]

Just woke up. Time to get to work.

 

[Guilded Clover]

Just wondering, what is the group 'Angel with a Shotgun' doing? I only saw three people in that group (me and two others).

@Guilded Clover


We get to deal with TERRORISM!

 

[Swoob]

@SirGrey can you PM that cs to me, welian and The Frixz (or just bump up the PM if you already have) please? c:


also holy shit u guys this EP is amazing

We get to deal with TERRORISM!

You know what i suddenly remembered reading something something about angels, so i went to check the Neutral Character tabs and

The leader of the Knights, who believes themselves to be the reincarnation of the mighty Raguel, the angel of justice and vengeance.

Why would you question an angel?

 

[Swoob]

Not just SirGrey though, if anybody still has CSes they're waiting on please PM them to the three of us (welian, Swoob, Teh Frixz) or write a post in the conversation to bump it up since we(lian) have some busy inboxes (like i think i saw you had a cs somewhere @Suzuki Mine were you planning on getting that accepted or was that the character you were going to swap praxi for?)

 

[Guilded Clover]

Based on a post a few pages back, I think my character could possibly fit in with the terrorists. She wears a lot of black and gold and I think the group's color scheme is black and gold.


Nevertheless, this is gonna be cool. Terrorist hype?

Wow. So cool! My first thought for codenames was Arachne from the Greek myth, especially since the story spins powers towards the 'curse' pole of the curse-blessing axis. Weaver works nicely though. Stats and rank look good to me. I won't touch upon history except that I noticed there was an autocorrect error of expect where I think you meant except early on. Relationships are tougher to suggest, other than the obvious mom and dad connection, but what I would dearly love to see for this character is a 'maiden, matron, crone' motif.
I know this is not a magical universe, but I can't help but think that Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos would take a personal interest in this girl if it were. Since it isn't though, what about this? What if she had in her relationships 'three mysterious women' fitting those descriptions who may or may not be real? I would lean toward post traumatic stress invention of her mind because then they can do things that seem impossible. Also @welian could use them to drop cryptic hints about the future if she wanted, as we suspect her of having done through Eden's visions. Then too there is the potential for a 'Tyler Durden' (or United States of Tara) type situation, where if there is somebody the plot needs killed say, Atropos could step in and take care of it (because that is her function, not like it is personal) and that would protect Hannah's mind from further shock. Maybe archetypal manifestations of the collective unconscious don't belong in relationships tab, but hey, where else ya gonna put 'em?


Welcome to AEGIS!

That sounds like trauma induced disassociative identity disorder, which would be super cool, but I think with everything else I have planned for Hannah, it would be a bit too much at once, you know?


PTSD will definitely be a thing.


I'll look up some of what you mention to refresh my memory and see if I can't work those themes in there, but I don't think I'll do anything blatant or outright with them.


Thank you so much for your insightful comments!
