OOC Discussion

[Gus]

Presumably Praxi or somebody took him there, sometime between the time Sevan and Chris arrived, and the altercation between Katherine and Izzy? If anybody wants to write that up, I give permission to 'puppet' my unconscious form as much as you like. How he got there is as much a mystery to him as how I got to the recovery room after having my wisdom teeth out. The last thing I remember was the needle touching my skin. I don't even remember it going in, let alone counting backward from a hundred, which I am told I did do. Also that I walked to the recovery room under my own power. Which is weirdly disturbing to me, to this day.

 

[Gus]

Actually, given that you broke your wrist, should Riley also be in the clinic? Or are you just going to tough it out with painkillers and such?


Edit: That actually might make for a cool scene, if Riley is coming down from her high in the next bunk over when Luc wakes up. Timeskip is looming though, so maybe that will just remain head cannon. Makes me smile though. Lucas is definitely in awe of Riley's prowess, and will remain so for the foreseeable future.

 

[Teh Frixz]

The plan was to tough it out and hold the scene down until Praxi showed up to take charge. It is curious to me how they got to his body to move him with Riley there holding the scene down.

 

[Gus]

Oh, that's on me. I made ooc arrangements to meet Izzy in the clinic, and so when Katherine did the whole rip the wall open scene, I figured that would be a good cue to wake up. Timing is awkward. Sorry not to have run it by you first. I am still new at this...

 

[Sopranos]

As long as it's limited, but you may want to come up with a different power for your first character just in case. It can be difficult to have a power that affects other people's powers without coming across as god-modding.

So it's a yes ? If it's a yes I would like to give it a try first, If thing don't work out then I'll think of something else. I'll prepare a CS

 

[Lemon Boy]

Here's the finished product!


Thanks to @Gus for the negative trait suggestion.


Still haven't found a theme song though.


I'll probably code the Stat's to match everything else later, I want to go and do some hardcore grinding on WOW right now!

KEYSOR,K.

  Notes
  
  Suffers from Narcolepsy. Constantly has significant bags under his eyes.
  
  
• Dreamy
  
  
  Kyle always comes off as a rather tranquil and soothing person to be around. Be it the soft way he talks or looks at someone, he can quite quickly reassure someone or bring peace to a situation. He possesses a kind, tender character as well and is quite the opposite of a harsh, critical boy. It would be a unique and weird sight to see him in a situation where he isn't the kind, calm one.
  
  
  Patient
  
  
  He's the type of person who's willing to wait a thousand years and then some for someone to complete something without the hint of complaint or annoyance. This also extends to other people as well, for he can quite easily bear or get used to people who have a streak of annoying him or acting as a general pest to just about everyone they get their hands on. Making him angry or start to complain truly makes you a special specimen.
  
  
  Calm
  
  
  Never yielding under extreme pressure or showing even a tinge of panic, Kyle always remains composed and level-headed no matter where he is or what situation he's experiencing. You can almost always rely on him to go ahead and pacify a group of friends who's running around screaming whilst flailing their arms about. He'll be the one standing there with an unmoving expression and trying to make everyone chill out for just one second.
  
  
  Vacant
  
  
  The dreamer is always off...well in Dreamland. At times, he can appear as if he's not listening at all or just feel like a ghost standing there during a situation, which is often true. It's not intentional in any way, but his mind will often wander away doing it's own thing whilst his body is left there, staring off into space. Sometimes he'll just blank out entirely and not listen to a massive chunk of what was just said or stare into space whilst someone waves frantically in his face.
  
  
  History
  
  
  Kyle Keysor had a notable, but not overly special life. He was discovered to suffer from Narcolepsy at a young age and no matter how long or how much he slept, he always felt tired. You know that feeling when you want to go home and just fall into bed and fall asleep immediately after a really long day?
  
  
  That's him, every day.
  
  
  Though, that doesn't mean life was bad, no, not at all. Anyone making fun of him during school would often be seen by him the next day with a black eye or just outright fear of the little boy as a result of his Sister and he became quite liked as a result of his Mother's job & influence. Holidays would be nice and they were your typical family, well apart from the fact they were all Super's. It was expected for him to have the Supergene and It came to no surprise that it turned up, though it wasn't expected that it would crop up so early.
  
  
  It started out slowly and subtlety as well. He began to vividly and perfectly remember every dream he had, lucid dreams became the norm and "normal" dreams were no longer a thing. Every time he fell into the realm of sleep, he fell into his own personal reality he could shape. Then It happened. Kyle had recently watched a horror movie secretly behind the Nannie's back and so wanted to see if he could recreate that Alien he saw in the movie. Unfortunately for the Nanny who was checking up on him to see if he was sleeping, a less than friendly alien suddenly turned up on the ceiling. What followed next was annoyingly expensive to repair. An alien creature spitting acid everywhere and his sister deactivating her limiter and destroying the alien with her super strength......alongside a fraction of the house.
  
  
  The parents immediately agreed to him wearing a Limiter to bed and enrolling him in a specialized school. He was enrolled into Facility 108 quickly after that and has been attending since for two years without any large scale incidents.
• Family
  
  Keysor Family | A fairly medium sized family of five including Kyle himself, they are extremely well known as a result of his Mother's significant Vigilante status and Father's work in the Commonwealth. They are entirely composed of Supers and the name is very well respected amongst both the Super and Normal community. However, as a result of their Father's and Mother's jobs, the kids are often taken care of by a Nanny.
  
  
  Name | Relation | Age | Rank
  
  
  Larissa Keysor | Mother | 37 | S: A well known Super who's the equivalent of a national A rate celebrity and something of a household name. She also does some modelling on the side and is admired by the younger female generation. Her ability is Telekinetic aura and she has performed countless heroic's with her ability. Your typical mother, often loving and angelic but all hell will break loose if her patience is tested.
  
  
  Maxwell Keysor | Father | 39 | B: A staunch man who holds a fair amount of power in the Commonwealth as one of the Bureaucratic heads, he spends most of his days dealing with endless amounts of paperwork and regulating fellow supers. He's strict and professional on the job but an entirely different man with the family. Kyle most resembles his father, albeit inheriting his mother's height.
  
  
  Izzie Keysor | Sister | 17 | A: The oldest child and only daughter, she's your typical rebellious, headstrong but compassionate teen. With the ability of Super strength, she's well known in her school for making Bullying non-existant less the bullies want to taste her wrath. They have a good relationship and Izzy once, nearly, accidentally broke a kids neck who was calling Kyle names.
  
  
  Joel Keysor | Brother | 14 | D: The runt of the family and in the possession of a peculiar ability. They both get on fairly well. He's a super momma's boy alongside resembling her the most among the kids and is an emotional little muffin.

• Dream Manipulation
  
  
  The realm of dreams and sleep is his domain. He can absolutely manipulate dreams perfectly, shaping the world as he may in his mind and shape everything as easily as clay. A side effect of this is that he is an incredible lucid dreamer and can perfectly recollect what happened in his dreams, unlike others who forget nearly all of it within the few minutes they wake up. Kyle can also communicate with others by dream walking and suddenly appearing in their sleep so he may talk to them through their dreams. In the mind of others, Kyle can suddenly turn their peaceful dreams into a horrific nightmare or vice-versa. However, It should be noted that despite holding absolute dominion in the realm of dreams, anything he does to the person won't actually happen in real life. Beheading them will probably make them panic and wake up with a cold sweat, but they'll still have their head.
  
  
  • Sleep Inducement: Kyles can induce immediate REM sleep on himself or others. However, When inducing sleep onto himself Kyle seems to remain fully aware of the environment around him E.G If he were to make himself fall asleep in class, he would still be able to perfectly hear and see everything. This only extends to himself and not others.
    
  • Dream Manifestation: Whilst dreaming, Kyle can bring things from his imagination in sleep into reality. He can manifest a swarm of arrows that go zooming towards their target, a rain of spears to fall from the sky or a group of knight that will try and protect his sleeping body.
    
  
  
  Limitations
  
  
  • Sleeping: To actually make use of any of his powers, he also has to be sleeping. Alongside this, he is left extremely vulnerable and once you get past his manifested defence's, he won't be able to do a thing.
    
  • Focus: Despite sleeping, he does still need to keep his mind set on the task. Constructs and the like can quickly fall apart or fade away in a black mist if his sleeping form is disturbed or he gets distracted.
    
  • Mental beacon: As a result of high brain activity whilst sleeping, Kyle is a massive target for those who may attack him mentally such as Telepaths. He also seems to be extra vulnerable to their attacks.
    
  • Touch: To induce sleep onto others, he needs to actually get within distance of them so he may touch them. He can't just look at you from a few metre's away and make you fall asleep.
    
  • Waking up: Making himself wake up is a difficult task and may take him around five-ten minutes to do it. Even if he's aware of what's going on around him, you won't see him suddenly jumping up.

Anybody working on some new story elements? I have spent the last 45 minutes on google earth noodling around residential areas near Sparrow point where Aaron could be housed. I think I am ready to start writing, but I am going to go put some seeds in my garden first. I will probably complete Aaron's pre-exam Friday the thirteenth arc tonight. If nobody has posted by then, I guess I will just edit the first post and add in the remaining highlights of his morning and early afternoon, rather than make a new post. At any rate, by tonight, he should be at the school's front gate. Not sure if Chris, Eden and Hunter will still be there or not, but it should be around three pm game time, about 7 hours after the car hit him in the face. Luc is determined to stay just at the edge of awake until he gets an interaction from somebody. I guess I should have kept him in the hallway under Riley's watchful eye in retrospect, as AEGIS probably doesn't have the technology to teleport him directly to the clinic.


Maybe Mary did it.


Hope everybody is having a lovely long weekend!

Anybody working on some new story elements?

Get ready to fight some crime.

 

[King Of Imagination]

And by crime she means a really bitter telekinetic and his sadist sister, as well as their minions... jk, you guys will have to wait for that one lol

 

[welian]

I prefer fire and explosions.

 

[King Of Imagination]

Who says there can't be fire and explosions? Speaking of the telekinetic, is Michael good to go?

  Cherie always tries to find the good in everyone and is quick to forgive someone who has wronged her. Since she can sense how they are feeling, she knows that people tend to regret the bad things that they have done. She can be too forgiving sometimes, mostly because she likes the person and doesn’t want to lose a friend.

  Cherie is able to manifest her emotions into a physical level and turn them into constructs that only she can use, such as weapons.
  
  
  • Emotion Detection: She can sense the emotions of other living beings and areas and can sense the presence of others if the emotion is strong enough.
    
  • Emotion Aura: She can generate an aura of emotional energy that can amplify or induce emotions on people who are near her.
    
  
  
  Limitations
  
  
  • Willpower: Her aura does not work on people who have a strong will unless they allow it to work.
    
  • Draining and Concentration: Cherie’s primary power requires her to concentrate in order to be able to create a construct. The moment her concentration is broken, the construct will disappear and she will have to try again. Breaking her concentration is painful and doing it enough will give her headaches or even pass out.
    
  • Strong Aura: If the area Cherie is in is filled with a certain emotion and it is very strong, it will incapacitate her and knock her unconscious.

[/QUOTE]
Very cool! Just the other day I was contemplating a character loosely inspired by Pixar's "Inside Out" where Anger, Fear, Joy, and so on, could each be used to manifest a diferent power, such as radiant light, flames, darkness, etc. (not necessarily in that order!) It makes for an interesting character, potentially. Very powerful and versatile, but not necessarily entirely under your conscious control. One might need to be joyful to manifest healing for instance, but be challenged to be joyful when your friend is hurt. Might be fun to play around with other things feelings could do besides manifest objects? Food for thought...


One caveat: controlling other's characters is not allowed, and while I am sure that is not your intent, inducing emotions seems perilously close to the line. Maybe limiting it to intensification of existing emotions would be safer? Alternatively, if you like the idea of a broader powers set, maybe a 'toolbox' of minor powers could go in the supporting powers instead of influencing minds?

• Brave
  
  
  Alexis is fearless; nothing or no one seems to intimidate her, no matter how tough looking they are, she always rises up to the challenge. It gives her a thrill, actually, to go against odds.
  
  
  Quick Witted
  
  
  Alex can make good decisions on the fly. A lot of the time it works out for her, as she's got a good problem-solving mind, but sometimes making decisions so fast doesn't always end up so good.
  
  
  Realistic
  
  
  Alex chases dreams that she knows can be achieved. Perhaps she might not be as imaginative as some others, but it allows Alex to be confident in the goals she sets and it means she is a grounded person.
  
  
  Brutish
  
  
  Alex is very brutish in her actions -- she laughs at people's misfortune, communicates through punching you in the arm or shoving you, swears, curses, defies authority.. she is certainly not a model student.
  
  
  History
  
  
  ---
• Other Character's Name
  
  
  ---
• Main Power
  
  
  Pyrokenisis -- Alexis has the ability to control fire. She can ignite a flame in her palm, breathe fire out of her mouth, throw fireballs, and more. She can also control existing fire, such as ones not lit by her. Alexis' own fire cannot harm her, but fire created from other sources if she doesn't take control of it, can.
  
  
  • Supporting Power A: Fire Mimicry/Flame Form -- A interesting extension of fire manipulation, Alex's powers activate when she musters up the focus and the energy to switch into her Flame Form, as she calls it. When she turns on her flame form, her entire body becomes made of fire. Intangible, but touching her burns. Her body acts exactly like fire, and Alexis can will the fire of her body to grow and shrink, though it always retains some sort of human shape or figure. Being in her Flame Form makes her fire abilities stronger and more powerful, but also harder to control, and easier to extinguish.
    
  • Supporting Power B: Flame Wings -- Using her pyrokenisis, Alexis sprouts wings made of fire on her back and is able to fly with them as long as she maintains the energy to maintain them.
    
  
  
  Limitations
  
  
  • Weakness 1: --- Energy - Alexis's powers are tied to her energy. If she is too tired, too weak, or even mentally exhausted, her powers will be weak or she might not even be able to use them.
    
  • Weakness 2: --- Emotion - If Alexis is emotionally unstable, her powers can fall out of her control. Fire is an unstable element, and just light the tiniest of fires in her palm without letting it go out of control takes a lot of willpower.
    
  • Weakness 3: --- Water - Dumping a bucket of water on Alexis would extinguish her powers until she dries off, and being drenched in water in her Flame Form could very well kill her instantly, as her flame form is pure fire.
    
  • Weakness 4: --- Fire Extinguishers - As humiliating as it may be, a Fire Extinguisher will extinguish Alexis's powers the exact same way as water might. Equally lethal to her in her Flame Form.

Looks good, but check your stats. I think that adds up to more than the maximum. S class gets, what, 26 points? A stops at maybe 23? Reminds me of one of my old "Champions" characters from back in the day, "Phoenix" who also had fire wings, but she had a magical origin, rather than mutant. (She could also die and be reborn from her ashes, but that power is specifically forbidden.)


Looking forward to Collateral Damage classes. Looking like we're going to have a lot of problem students. Good thing I have an assistant teacher in the works, right @Aldur ?
