@KatherinWinter
Details and Actions Taken would help on how Richard and Argus would approach the situation.

@Searat@Blueflame@Raining@Phantomlink959@LightningMaiden
Just because I am the GM doesn't have to do everything. You are allowed to but your own thoughts and ideas I to this. There was no action taken. If you want a description of the cemetery or zombie I can add those details but I haven't worked all that. I can look up bio and mana zombies if you want but I was leaving that up to you.

@KatherinWinter

The objective in asking was, I believe, just to make sure we wouldn't be ruining any plans you might have by improvising too much and/or taking liberties with the mission.

@Phantomlink959Which I appreciate. Really. But if I have something specific in mind I'll let you know. I only know of one well technically two types of zombies. I'll get the details for you. But I want you to take some liberties. Don't hold back.

@KatherinWinter

With that in mind I think Searat and I can probably work things out. I know plenty about zombies from all over media and mythology, he probably knows a fair whack as well.

@Searat@Blueflame@Raining@Phantomlink959@LightningMaiden
I will describe scenes when characters arrive if needed. The cemetery is on the west side of town. Mostly residential. The shapeshifter is most likely in the business section of town and the child was last seen at the edge of the residential area.

kk I am waiting for blueflame to post next if he doesnt by tomorrow i will post again

@Raining

Was reading over Essie's sheet, wha are the specifics and limits of her power mimicry? Is it only the need to verbalize or are there other things she can't replicate?

@Phantomlink959

Verbalized spells/spells that require material cannot be replicated
Her biggest drawback is that she has to visually see the person execute the action from beginning to end. If a person were shifting she'd have to see them enact their ability to shift and can only shift as that animal until she can register another. Her replicas aren't organic either, again taking from the example of a shifter - If she were to say use their ability to shift it'd be a mirror/porcelain copy that can shatter, or if it were plant manipulation; Someone grows a beanstalk from the ground, Essie can do that but it isn't organic. Magical abilities on the other hand can be replicated so long as it isn't a mentally corrupting force, she is technically a being with 'energy' therefore she can use/cast 'energy'.
Sorry if this makes absolutely zero sense, I'm not entirely coherent at the moment. And also apologies for not specifying either, I could add these things to her character sheet or make edits if it isn't acceptable.

@Raining

Being totally honest I was just mildly worried about another character jacking powers off of one of mine. Argus in particular, as I put a LOT of thought into what he can do.

I put a lot of work into Rost's abilities as well, but he actively teaches other people to do whath e does so it's not a big deal.

Power mimicry is just a weird pet peeve of mine, result of some much much older roleplays.

@Phantomlink959

Ah, no worries then! I am rather terrified of making OP characters, so much so that they end up much weaker than they should be - which was why Essie was under speculation in the first place because she's such a fragile little thing and still is. I'll make sure to keep an eye on how I execute things ^^

@Raining

So long as you're careful to make sure her copying a given power makes sense, I don't foresee myself or anyone else having issue with it. And if you're unsure, you can always ask people for clarification on how it works.

Pfft I just saw a glaring mistake in my post and it gave me a chuckle

@Searat@Raining
Do you guys want Astra and Essie to talk until they get there. I will have Griffin waiting for them but there is no need to rush. Also wrong type of shapeshifter

@LightningMaiden Thanks for letting me know

@Phantomlink959@Searat Let me know when you are ready for arrival information. It isn't much but I have been trying to pull a scene together for you.

@KatherinWinter I'll leave that decision up to @Searat, as I feel like I've been leading a bit.

@KatherinWinter

I'm ready if you're ready, @Phantomlink959.

---

Do you wish to keep talking with Astra or lets head straight to the case, @Raining?

@Searat I'm good whenever.

@Searat@Phantomlink959 I'll get that post up later tonight than.

@KatherinWinter@Searat
I wouldn't want to hold anything up so I'm fine with continuing straight to the location!

@Raining@Phantomlink959@Searat I forgot the mention button
