Cool, now all I have to worry about is encroching adulthood that's staking me from just around the corner. It's just standing there . . . . menacingly More internal screaming

In other news, can I get your opinion on a power idea I have circling in my brain?

So how it works is similar to the Biblical curse "The Mark of Cain". However, since no RP will really allow something so mind bogglingly OP as returning all damage towards the sender times a factor of 7, 24/7, I'm thinking of changing the effect to work in one of two ways.

First, the curse is focused on ones arms and hands, and each arm uses it in a slightly different way. One creates an invisible field in whatever direction one is putting out said hand, catching all incoming attacks within a front size of 5-7 feet, then sending it blasting off at 7 times the force in the opposite direction, while the other arm would stop any attack that would collide with it when the curse is active and allow the user to hold it in for 10 extremely painful seconds at most, before either unleashing the attack into a nearby object/person via punch or having his arm be subjected to it instead.

The second way involves the first two ways, but they are in affect around the whole body. It also can activate automatically to a sudden threat, before the user might even be aware of it(say, someone tried to shoot them with a sniper rifle), if the ability isn't on cooldown.

Limits would be that using this ability is pretty taxing on ones energy and stamina, a 30 second to 1 minute cool down(this is per arm on the first one), and that some damage is likely to go through the longer you hold it in(this is for the second arm effect).

It certainly is OP, but I'm a sucker for references like that, so. Anyway, with that in mind, the nerf I have in mind through it is that it doesn't just nullify the damage for the person who has it; they still suffer the damage, and just end up returning it afterwards, worse. I'm rusty on my Bible verse, but I'm pretty sure the Mark of Cain involved that whatever happened to Cain would return sevenfold. So, because of that, in my mind the first thing that needs to be changed about it is that whatever damage is coming have to be suffered before it can be reflected. It fits the reference more, and also gives it a significant nerf, because if whoever has it gets killed well, yeah, their attacker dies, but sucks to suck they're still dead. Does that make sense?

@The Darklight ProjectYeah, the nullification came from it being used that way in a book I read. Was thinking about using it in another RP(or this RP if I ever find time to make a character), maybe nerfing the damage a bit, not quite sure at the moment.

Yep, I get it. It still needs some work, but if done well it could be super interesting, and a challenge. I think it would better in... er, time to invent a term in my head "party-based" roleplaying like how this one is set up, where most of the characters are together in one allied group. It means the ability benefits all of the protagonists (barring some sort of internal conflict), which means it's less likely for it to piss someone off directly like in more of a player-versus-player kind of roleplay.

@Aya the SmallHey, you're posts may not be long, but you're characterization is spot on. Thuraya is pretty awesome from little I've seen of her, and I like her motivation and devotion to Seryosa. She's like a knight in that regard, even if she lacks the title. Definitely more respectable than my character(s), with one being involved in dark arts and the other being a bit of a nihilist that hates the Divines.

Edit: Also, you're sig is too funny. I sometimes spend a few minutes just watching it repeat. I don't why a camel throwing a man around is so hypnotic though, or what that says about me as a person.

@RaijinslayerAww ; w ; thank youu <33 I do like your characters though, as well. x33 haha. ON THE NOTE OF MY SIGNATURE. xD
This has actually been a gif that represents Thuraya in a way. I used her in D&D a while back, before picking her up as a "proper" RP character, and her handle animal was like in the negatives. xD and her ride was also not so hot... so.. this.. uh.. yeah we joked about it for a while then I found the gif and was like "OMG LOOK IT'S HER" XDDDD

@The Darklight ProjectYes, yes, I see. Now stfu. xD

@PetiteAmbivert ; u ; No you. <333

@Aya the SmallAwesome story is awesome, and the fact that your character is also based off one you played in a TTRPG is awesome. Drosil is originally from Pathfinder, a Summoner, and Shadar was his Eidolon before I ported them over hear.

@RaijinslayerOooouuuu :3 Me likey. Yeah Thuraya is from a 3.5 campaign. She was just a basic Fighter class, but from my character sheet I just found... xD her feats at the time;
Monkey Grip (weapon can be a size bigger than her)
Power Attack (subtract from attack and add it to damage)
Improved Natural Armour (exactly what it sounds like.. xD)
Horde Breaker (cleave cleave cleave!!! :DD (was a races of war feat, I think it was at a BAB of +6 she could cleave as many times as she got an AoO)
Combat Reflexes (bonus AoO = Dex bonus, which was nice for Horde Breaker xDD)

So all together, you actually have her style in this RP. xD

@Aya the SmallDrosil's fighting style has yet to be really developed, as he has yet to fight to his full potential yet. It takes time for him to use elemental spells or summon elemental creatures, but his specialty are natural creatures and ones of Light, Darkness, and Shadow. He doesn't like using them, however, as he only knows a few of them, and they are all rather difficult to control. . . . well, unless he gets a little help from a certain source.

Yeah sorry, I spent all of 2 seconds thinking up that name. lol. My entire thought process: "My horse needs a name so I can stop calling it horse. Horses are fast, and stealthy. BAM." the end. If I ever get a pet parrot I'll be sure to think on its name a bit longer. (Iago...cough)
