Antithesis -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 18:02:29)
I know, right? Sheesh. This is depressing and lame. Clean the slate, I say!

@Anti: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/l/led+zeppelin/stairway+to+heaven_20082076.html <- Meditate on this. Also, I actually have no reality-bending powers unless I am in a situation where an abnormally high ammount of power would be required to either accomplish something important, or survive the situation at all. I have a sortof... adaptive feature in my powers. It doesn't always turn out to be reality bending. Many things could happen, and I have to figure out a way to actually get myself out of the situation, even with the power to potentially deal with it. Killed myself, one of the first times I was fighting a god. ... Oh, and it would've happened instantaneously. I will mentally count that event as never having happened. Technically speaking, if Saturn was not lying about his level of power, he'd actually be the greatest among us in sheer levels of strength. Clown at the moment doesn't have terribly high reality-bending powers, comparatively, and uses organization and minnions to accomplish alot of his plans, as well as a vast knowledge of chemistry. (QUICK!!! TELL ME WHICH IS THE MOST VOLATILE OF THE ALKALINE METALS!!!!!!!!!! WHAT IS THE MELTING POINT OF TUNGSTEN?!?!?!?!) Since we don't know what Jack is fully capable of, nor Lunarox, so I can't comment on them as well as I might, but Jack seems to have held back, so far. Edit: Ah, I see... Oh, and I forgot to add David to the list up there, although I must admit he's not been godmodding overly much, and I am interested in what he'll do next... Might be too much at once, though, yeah. Too few heroes to deal with things. :/

Antithesis: I'll work on it soon. Expect it to be sent out by friday.

Sir Night -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 18:11:11)
Honestly I'm starting to wonder if it would be a good idea to set a certain standard of power and start treating this more like a video game where everyone's powers need to be balanced. Basically the more powerful you want to be in one way, the weaker and more vulnerable you need to be in another area. It is restrictive, and it might be a pain to enforce, but it's probably the only way to really stop the godmodding.

And I'm glad to hear it, Shadow! @Drakkoniss; That is of course implying he's a liar. How would what he say make him more powerful than the universe-eating David?

Drakkoniss -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 18:14:37)
... This makes me wonder what specifically was the genesis of this feeling. :/ David is much less powerful than he used to be, and even then, he held back his power/s in all situations on the planet, because he couldn't control them/it extremely well, once he got them/it going.

Arachnid -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 18:15:08)
Personally, I think we should just state our definition of godmodding, and have everyone follow under that definition. Let's look at Zaffy's powers... Pro's Unnatural speed Unnatural strength Some spider control/minor powers/spellcraft I'm already dead, so I can't really age...I do, but veeeeerrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyy slowly I think I heal quickly...Don't think I've established whether I have this power or not... Some damage resistance Con's Thirst for blood Everyone (that has read my story <.<) knows how to kill her I have to sleep. You don't see many people saying that they need rest on here, do you? The Clan of the Shadows is after me, trying to kill me for the eighth time >.> Personally, I think she's pretty balanced...

Kinzdor -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 18:15:53)
AS stated before in this thread this is just getting out of hand.

Antithesis -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 18:20:04)
I like this. Let's get threads rolling. Pro's Doesn't really age Heals quickly Unnatural speed Unnatural strength Unnatural reflexes Intelligence comparable to Sherlock Holmes and Eddie Morra combined Technological companion! YAY Con's Can be killed by just about anything that kills a human Needs sleep Targeted by the entirety of the world military Mantis Corporation Is the primary target of the Eventide, just ahead of humanity ^Balanced-ish?

Drakkoniss -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 18:21:42)
I like that you can control spiders to the extent that you can make them swarm and devour someone. ^-^ lol ...O.o Sleeping vampiress... Oh, and you should add a certain degree of resistance to damage, and healing derived from the consumption of blood, or at least I would assume it is. This is not me telling you how to form your character. This is me remembering how you were with Clown torturing you in the early bits of C&T. Just saying. Also, apparently some degree of spellcraft, other than the summoning of Arachne, which was implied by the fact that you said that's the only spell that requires the Arachnoscythe. (With those powers, your character is still pretty balanced; shrugs) The spellcraft ability would explain how/why she was able to create the wave that hit the ship in Captain Arafe's story, and possibly why she could take the form of a mermaid, but not necessarily... That could potentially be for entirely different reasons.

quote: healing derived from the consumption of blood That's true, but not entirely useful, since I can't really control myself in that blood frenzy. I wouldn't consider it a pro, but not really a con...I get healed, but I can't control myself...so, Neutral quote: resistance to damage, It shall be added! ~Lady Zafara

Antithesis -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 18:29:11)
I'd say the vampiress is rather balanced... (Very balanced, if not underpowered in a world full of universe-eaters lol) I want to see what other characters' stats show up to be, though.

Shadowlight1 -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 18:35:36)
Very well then pros: Unparalleled control over my previously known powers. Ability to influence the World from a distance Protected by a gravity barrier Radiates plasma energy as a shield Con: Has little control over powers Extremely weak to direct exposure to sunlight (His solar based powers come from the light given off by the moon, which he can utilize) Body is weak as a regular person I'll think up of more stuff later ~Lunarox

Glais -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 18:37:08)
I have to admit, all this talk and you guys being really into your characters is...intriguing. I actually thought of a potential HS guy assuming I ever gained interest in it (which I haven't, but I find your guys' story continuity interesting. Like one large continuous web), but yeah/

Vector -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 18:37:20)
gimme a couple minutes to think real hard about experimental, then i'll get back to you on that. i don't like to miss anything important for this[>:]

quote: Protected by a gravity barrier Radiates plasma energy as a shield quote: Body is weak as a regular person lolwut Looking at your cons, most of them are cancelled out, if not overshadowed by those two pro's... Not to be mean... ~Lady Zafara

Antithesis -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 18:44:40)
While we wait I'm going to list all of my characters... Saturn; Pro's Can't feel pain Can't really be damaged under normal circumstances Completely unpredictable because he has multiple personalities Control over sanity Control over how tired a lifeform is (or vice-versa) Can seamlessly shift himself and others between existences Doesn't age Seemingly omniscient Manipulation of objects Telepathy Teleportation Extremely "aware" Levitation Con's Concentrated beams of nucleic-energy can incapacitate him quickly Can't teleport through Rhodium Is completely hindered by Rhodium Can become his own demise if he becomes sad Is extremely susceptible to damage related to the Eventide Unpredictable personalities can also be bad. Eh... balanced for my story. In relation to others... Depends. ~~~~~~ Contrast; Pro's Extremely durable Not effected by EMPs Feels no emotion Highly intelligent Makes decisions based on mathematical calculations Can transform a TON Lasers everywhere Contains a lot of Rhodium Immune to the Eventide Essentially the grand master of all machinery related to Mantis Main hub and guardian of the Contrast Network (big thing in my story) Cannot feel fear Cannot be seduced Virtually unhackable Very strong in many ways Sees just about everything around it Knows its exact locations at all times Ect ect ect ect but no omni-powerful stuff or anything related to reality/the universe Con's Can be damaged by extremely massive impact CAN POSSIBLY be hacked but only temporarily before it reboots Can be harmed by means of massive amounts of electricity Is a piece of machinery. You all know what that means. Its data gets wiped somehow? Gone until it can be refreshed... Needs to periodically update If its armor is removed somehow it is essentially a mobile harddrive I'll get to the Eventide later... EDIT: @~~Eclipse~~ Lunarox; I agree with Zafara .-. @Zafara; Respect plus a million for saying lolwut

Kinzdor -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 19:01:42)
Ok I guess I will wip some of those up, for my many chars. Darkness King: Pro's Advanced mental manipulation powers Resistance to most Earthling posins Advanced intellect Access to advanced tech Con's Can be severely wounder or even killed by wounding his tentacles (the most vital part of his allein body) Can become temporally insane if pushed to far Bound to a minor honor code ACELLRATOR 3G: Pros Super Speed Super Strength Super Agility Rather high (but not advanced) IQ Cons His IQ though high is still at a normal human level and not advanced High moral code (won`t do any thing that would hurt or harm inanest people in any way) A tad to quick to trust people CHEMICAL REACTION: Pros Has the power to change or alter the chemical compounds of a substance by mentally rearranging its atomic structure Cons His powers are very unstable Has problems controlling his powers Has trouble making rass decisions Is still in his teens so has the normal adolescence traits How are these balanced enough? I will do more for the rest of my chars later.

Arachnid -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 19:03:04)
I'd say your characters are balanced. ~Lady Zafara

Antithesis -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 19:08:43)
Zafara; Referring to me, Kinz, or both? By the way I didn't throw this in but Saturn can create life. Further edit: Just found this old thing I wrote a while back... I think I posted this here sometime in 2011? Name: John Saturnia, Saturn, Duke of Sanity, Prince of Madness Alignment: Chaotic Neutral, Chaotic Evil, and True Neutral Powers: Ability to 'harvest', 'implant', and take control over the "energy" (not actual energy, its the mental and physical fatigue) in a living being. Can also create living forms, though this takes quite a bit of effort on his part. Extremely intellectual and has mental abilities that rival many, including; creating mental shields, mental weaponry, wreaking havoc on another's mental state, mind control, control of dead bodies via manipulation, and the ability to mentally move objects as well as 'teleport' himself or others (with effort), and shapeshifting. Is completely unpredictable for many reasons, and the mere presence of Saturn drives most super-humans with mental resistance gradually insane. Humans or superhumans without mental protection of some kind can barely look at him before losing themselves completely. Appearance/Info: Has many different appearances. Mainly, he will either appear as a humanoid insect or a bluish human with angelic looking armor and large weapons. Occasionally, he likes to pretend he is a spacepirate-bug. Personality: Has multiple personalities... Strong-willed, brave, honorable, and kind-hearted. Extremely intense, harsh, and serious. Cruel, chaotic, vengeful, sadistic. Sad, depressed, worried. Giddy, silly, extremely happy but violent. And then a mixture of all of them. His personality-changes make him an unpredictable foe in combat, and can change at any moment. This isn't under his control. Yeah that basically summed it up. My bad.

Question Mark? -> RE: =HS= Character Discussion Thread (3/7/2012 19:21:24)
Here we go: -Professor Pythagoras- Pros: Highly intelligent Good public standing Large groups of mind-controled minions Access to mind-control technology Handy with a blade Cons: Middle-Aged No powers Can't do anything that would blow his cover Constantly hunted by his former test subjects -Lord Thursday- Pros: Physical support from the Elder Gods Excellent Swordsmanship Great Mental Defenses Difficult to shock Occasionally has space control/mind breaking powers Cons: Insanity make sit difficult to make decisions Argues with and abuses self Powers only occasionally activate Malnourished Internal Bleeding His relationship to magic is like someone who passes out after a glass of wine but keeps coming back to the bar. The years of mental and physical abuse at the hands of his masters have left him damaged, and when they were taken away after the Ringmaster Incident, he developed a craving for authority. He needs and enjoys having people abuse him and order him around. Final Notes: Essentially, Thursday is a very sick fellow. He is a father of one, and his wife died in childbirth. This, coupled with his unfortunate childhood, drove him to be a sullen and distant fellow as a scientist, and he greatly surpassed his peers, until the accident. He was exposed to them, and they made a nesting place in his mind and twisted him. They forced him to obey, and over time Stockholm Syndrome began to set in. He began performing what they asked of him without question, and eventually nearly managed to let them in. The stress drove him even madder, and as he was used to relying on the assumption that something was controlling him to justify his actions, this newfound free will damaged him further. His experience as the Ringmaster broke him, and left him with a deep desire to have Them back. Someone to be his superior. To hurt him and to order him to do unspeakable things. As the planets have aligned, he has access to his powers (finally) and is utilizing them. He was tortured by Pythagoras, but not in the way that he wanted. It was subtle, and harmed him over time. He escaped. The alignment allows him to taste the seething madness that permeates other people as the living syrup of the Elder Gods, and it is the sweetest nectar to him. I just noticed that both of my characters seem a lot more powerful than they actually are... interesting.
