Witches normally operate in covens anyway, so, it would still make sense to have multiple witches. The one I've been hatching up is still alive as a mastermind of some sort.

I've planned multiple arcs-- like, for Harbingers of the Swarm, it would mainly focus on Drakus' character development, hopefully. Although, there's no harm for others to shine. Lol i had to read through all your bios to get a story.

On the other hand, AwesomeZero5 does have a point. If water is your weakness, you should have a marked disadvantage (which should have played well into Drakus' hero moment).

by my understanding, there was one witch and no placement for a said witch? so I* basically placed her in the pond. I'll be re-reading the post since it has been a day or so since I have an I just skimmed it before posting now. I'll edit accordingly @AwesomeZero5

also, I never said she died just withered away as for the water bit... I totally forgot that it is a weakness ... so you are right there. as for acid, it's a large pond, not a lake but toxic substance even acid isn't going to affect rei because it's part of her power. so immunity is my claim there. But now I think I'm going to edit my post before this and say Rei was Pulled into the water instead of diving into it. @Calatrava

okay so, were okay with the multiple witch part and the water turning into the acid part?

I honestly don't see anything wrong with my NPC villain and my post-Rei isn't unharmed just the acid isn't hurting her. she is dying/ struggling or else she would just come out of the pond by herself and not use paine's help. Water is a chemical, Rei can change chemical compounds. Plus she is all torn up and bleeding.

@AwesomeZero5 ok I edited it. Annnnd I don't want drakus to save rei because that's just favoritism lol. I want our characters to slowly but surely start building a team/ family dynamic but rei and drakus have their own dynamic as well... I think after these moments rei will be a little more friendly, or open to the idea of a team, towards the two. Saving one's life will usually do that.

It was the matter of which you took control of someone else's character in an unapologetic manner both beginning and afterward that essentially was pointing toward strong plot point with no second thought about it that disturbed me for the most part. There was no mention of the witch being at the scene, and given the context it appeared to be a mystery about the witch possibly being among their own ranks or somewhere else setting up the traps. I would understand perhaps another witch or monster you created showing up (but this was not the route you aimed for, nor did you ask permission or mention this to anyone else beforehand) , but taking it over and then saying the witch 'wilted' as a character smiled down and swam away implies decaying away and dying, not survival though I will admit this is a misinterpretation on my end.

I'm not saying you have to plan for everything but be considerate of others and wary of your own characters abilities and weaknesses. You could create new demons, new traps, new troubles, new plot points, new events and new characters to get involved if you want to surprise someone. You can pull something out of your backstory, maybe your character has a strange realization that they need to share, perhaps they found something interesting or something in their backstory comes up for the rest of the characters to experience, you can do a lot of stuff it doesn't need to be planned point by point. Heck, ya had a kappa or creature of your own trying to lure ya into the water at the beginning (which worked) so you could've kept going with that.

As for powers, personally it seems incredibly overpowered that you could turn an entire pond to pure acid within a singular post (not to mention assume someone survived that after mentioning them withering). Also, literally everything is made of chemicals and chemical compounds, but that wasn't my call that was Hitman's, on top of your other powers of hypnosis, injecting people with venom and being able to control toxic or poisonous substances along with turning non-harmful elements into lethal substances which can then be manipulated (so really you can manipulate the nature of just about anything that isn't magically protected and make it healing or lethal) which is now argued to be chemical compounds , which again is literally everything. Unless you edited that power (seeing as it was edited seven days ago). There is also no mention of her being immune to her own power and no mention of especially being immune to pure acid for that matter or even being able to affect things on such a scale on her character sheet. Immunity is less the point that I'm upset about and more the point that she was capable of doing this on a large scale in an element that not only she was weak to, was she surprised attacked in, didn't have time to prepare, and was running out of oxygen.

One could argue she only turned the water around the witch into acid (though depending on how much it could spread, but that wouldn't be an issue), which would be an effective argument rather than downright immunity to an entire pond full of acid.

I haven’t read it all yet but I love how everyone assumes Drakus would have a ‘hero moment, lol. If he did arrive he would go into the water but probably only to get his weapon 😜

Yeah, Drakus so far as he's interacted doesn't seem that interested in most people around him at the moment. So him having a hero moment seems baffling, unless you mean killing the demons on the way.. xD

@AwesomeZero5 I'm not going to sit here arguing on what I did and didn't do. in the end, being disrespectful wasn't my goal and nor do I like to tiptoe around others, so I can play a scene, which I've been doing this whole SL. I play multiple characters in Multiple sl's so forgive me if I mix them up. At least I'm still here. I could easily go fuck off. I also come from a generation of Play by post. if someone feeds it into the universe one can usually add to it. So that what I thought I was doing? My character is powerful and so is yours. I'm a little peeved at being LECTURED but it has been a long time since I've played with a large group and I'm not an unreasonable human. I can see your points and will ADJUST to be a TEAM player here because I like this sl and the characters. I had planned to do this ACID scene 7 days ago, just didn't have the opportunity to do so until now but again I edited my post. I'm sure ill hear your opinion on it.

@Dark Light
Yes, Rei wont be holding her breath waiting for Drakus

I apologize for being a bit of a lecturing jerk. Again, it's mostly the person taking over another character that was really what set me off but I guess that does change in other RP environments. As long as you agree it's another witch or get permission from Calatrava to use theirs, I will shut up about the matter.

Yeah, your choices do matter, I believe.

Hence, it was Paine who Enzo asked to save Rei. While this arc would try to focus on Drakus, it's by no means something to force him to become a hero. If Drakus does choose to be a hero, something will happen which will push the story in another direction. If Paine goes in to do the hero work, the Witch will do something else. If Rei gets out alone, the story changes again :D

So, yeah, just do what your character would do, and the story will flow nonetheless. If something important comes up, I'll be PMing you so that we can discuss how you want the story will flow.

In this case, depending on who does what to save Rei (which is the focal point for this scene), I'll be pming the needed people :D

Okay,
I understand
I will also work on my communication
Intentionally it was meant to be THE witch but if Calatrava's post said otherwise I would have accepted this and played off his decision and actions via post. This is my example of play by post style. so basically, one witch turned into two witches turned into a coven.
Did it turn into a coven of witches? if I'm not mistaken @calatrava

Also I liked lecturing AssHat better than Jerk xD @AwesomeZero5

Just wanted to say thanks for taking over this game :)

As for multiple witch theory, they could all technically be apart of the same one. Like maybe she produces these little brain bugs that infect innocent people and slowly turn them into another weaker version of herself. Or she makes some witchy clones some other way? But a coven dedicated to ruining death school sounds good too.
Demon worshipers?

Oh and Drakus would save her, he would just be very nonchalant about it, maybe scoff at her.

I am not out of the RP, though at the moment I am just not interested in the Kappa plot, so I will just handwave that Deborah didn't follow them due to the headache and is instead training in the dorm or something.
