[OOC] Experimental Army

But Shane actually has to access the info. My character just...knows.

Also, Shanes is actually technology based whereas yours is mental based.

arowne97

He had to learn it somewhere

XxLyraxX

exactly. And it was either Enhanced or Supernatural Intelligence. I went with enhanced. because supernatural intelligence is OP.

He had to learn it somewhere

KatherinWinter

he can learn things just by hearing or seeing them once, and sometimes merely by touching them. He knows...I think it's 20 different languages, and with that high of intelligence, his brain also functions at somewhere around 30 or 40 times the speed of a normal human's brain.

arowne97

I'm concerned their too similar

[arowne97]

they're not THAT similar. Shane requires electronics for his power to work. Haru's power is ALWAYS on.

arowne97

But once they have the knowledge they both keep it!

[arowne97]

My character can also learn skills just by watching, instead of searching an ENTIRE digital database for it.

[Samebito]

Ooooooohhhhhhh Hokey is going to have a new best friend named Shane XD

Saarebas

Well I know your opinion of hokey Name: XM1A5 Mechanized Attack Hound Ophois, though more commonly referred to by the nickname "Hokey." I'm a little leery that his overpowered compared to the others.

KatherinWinter

Understandably. I think certain supers could comfortably wreck his day, and especially when working together, but I'll see what I can do. Edit: Whimmy wham wham wozzle, Hokey has completed his journey through the mysterious tube of nerfing. He can go for another spin, if this still isn't enough.

[arowne97]

I just edited Haru's power.

[Saarebas]

Okay because I sense a needless argument brewing I'm stepping in on this. Winter's concern is that Haru's power is something Shane can do naturally, being considered basically a genius since he was four, not to mention it has been enhanced by his power. She is worried that it will make one if not both of the characters redundant, why would someone make two people basically with the same skill sets?

[arowne97]

Unlike Haru, Shane would still have the brain capacity of a normal human if there are no electronics around. That's one major difference.

[Samebito]

Well, I personally would be okay with power overlaps to begin with, because the actual characters of the characters themselves should be enough to distinguish them from each other, but that's just my twelve Vietnamese Dong.

I'm alittle slow or my computer isn't showing the updates

arowne97

But that isn't enough. Shane can acccesss the Web and know everything Haru knows. IQs can be high be let's keep them realistic 500 isn't realistic

[arowne97]

It's supernatural intelligence now. He's so smart that no amount of training can reach his intelligence level. Even Shane's power can't help. XD

[Saarebas]

So it is basically a "one step a head no matter what" type thing?

[Samebito]

Well, if you're looking for stuff getting removed outright, I haven't yet gone that far, but I've added conditions to many of the things or altered their descriptions to tone them down a great oodleload. More limitations found all over the joint. (Also I'm fairly sure IQ tests can't measure any higher than 200 in the first place due to their very nature, but sssh. We're in imagination land now.)

[arowne97]

So it is basically a "one step a head no matter what" type thing?

Saarebas

Not quite. My character can probably still get his ass kicked by people. I mean, in the sonic games Eggman has an IQ of 300 and gets beat up by a hedgehog. XD

[Saarebas]

Just that my character isn't needed anymore. Seeing as the only reason he would be on a team would be for his intelligence and now there is a character that basically states. "Yeah I'm smarter than you too bad so sad."
