What IS on my mind?
8 yrs ago
So I just watched the film "What happened to Monday?". To be honest I felt like the film really wanted me to hate it, but in the end I couldn't bring myself to give it less than 8 points on IMDB.
Let me properly introduce myself. I am Sir Spud the Fourth, and I have been a potato for the longest time ever. I never denied it to be completely honest, but it is only recently that I embraced it. Now I have evolved from a simple couch potato to a fully grown royal potato. A dapper kawaii potato. And I dare say, knowing that you are a spud, makes life a lot easier. Just chill and let everyone else care about all their meaningless things because at the end of the day you'll know: chilling is the way to go.
I try to spend minimal effort on things that I don't care about, and procrastination might as well be my middle name. But that doesn't mean I ONLY rest. Sometimes a 'tato gotta do what a 'tato gotta do. And if that something happens to be things I like, then you cannot find anyone better than me. I am an omnipotent being capable of virtually any task to a limited degree, and I am not shy to admit it. I may not be the MOST AWESOMEST in a thing, but I am sure as hell MORE AWESOMEST than most people are at everything. But hey, I'm not here to brag, even if I am probabaly better at it than you
THE DREAMER:
All those nights laying in my couch, I thought about the cool shit that I cannot do. That I cannot see. But I pictured them in front of myself like they were real, and that infuraited me. Then I found the Guild, and I lived happily after. I have been on the site for 2 years now, and I have seen many RPs, and played with many people. I wish I have found the site earlier, but I am glad that I've even found it. Now all those fantasies can be written down and my mind can rest at ease at night, without being constantly troubled by ideas.
When I RP, I love myself some good Sci-Fi or Fantasy. But hey I am filthy casual, I can go for anything with an interesting setting. I don't trouble myself on small details if the plot is good, but if you get somwthing wrong you can expect me to tell you about it. Some even go as far as to think that I am angry or something, but I am too chill for that. If anything I'm more of the funny type, so you can expect me to try and write some shitty jokes or post memes I found on the internet. Anyways, you'll see what I mean when we RP together.
THE ARTIST:
Used to be something else here, but I'm happy to say that it's replaced because of a positive change. I now work as a full-time 3D artist in the animation industry, churning out shot after shot for some of your favorite game intros and trailers. Can't say anything about them before you even ask, and even though I'm still new to the industry I love it and I already know that this will be my passion for a long time. So hopefully in a few years I'll have a proud portfolio of animations that were done by yours truly that I can show off to all the lovely people of the guild.
THE LOVER OF STUFF:
Now I may have hobbies like the above mentioned, but there are some more things that I love in life. Here is a handy list of things you can always talk about with me:
Gaming: This one I am quite proud of, I'm a serious gamer with capital G. Not as much time for it nowadays, but still true.
Music: All kinds of electronic music, but I am a sucker for Queen and Powerwolf. Or Breakbot... anything music.
Anime: We all have an Otaku in us, but it's bigger for some people. For me it's just big enough.
WORDS OF WISDOM:
Be chill folks, getting fed up about stuff is a recipe for disaster. You gotta learn to be patient and let things go, or you'll end up a wrinkly old man/woman with only bad memories about life. Even if you do fuck-all every day, you can live a content life by taking things easy. With that said, as always, stay safe and stay classy.
@KillamriX88 The ninja spud strikes again, his victims unknowing of his incredible typing speed
@Bartimaeus Yeah he can definetly control it: "Samoth can choose to increase or reduce the level of gravity in an area of his choosing, up to 25 square feet." Just ebcause I understand a lot about astrophysics, I cannot summon a meteor to hit my enemy.
A theme wasn't a requirement, yes, but so far everyone has been doing it. Now, that doesn't mean you have to, but still, I personally feel that you have powers in pretty much every possible area, which makes your character omnipotent. He can counter single attack and has CC reduction, he is super strong and fast, and he has crowd control abilities alongside stun. That is not to mention that it ignores magic (which is a weird thing, cause WHAT IS magic in this RP?), allows it to touch the untouchable, sap enemies of their power and basically control the enviroment just because he knows how things work.
My opinion is that the character has a power level WAAAAAAY higher than anyone else. Your Newton Control can do more things that what the entire arsenal of others can. Not to mention that you didn't say any downsides at all, maknig your character basically infinitely good at using all of his abilities.
Set THESE aside, he has military background, is trained in martial arts, and is a physically perfect specimen. Make him strive to help others too, and you'll have a perfect Gary Sue.
Bottom line is, I like the character's IDEA, but the execution feels haphazard at best. Not to mention that the wall of text is making my eyes bleed.
Just to make it clear, this is nothing personal, and it is just my opinion.
@Bartimaeus Well, since your core is MAGIC NEGATION, having the ability shock foes telephatically is stupid and doesn't make sense. Same with controlling gravity just because you understand a lot about it.
If you made his core power something along the lines of PSYCHIC, then it would make sense that he can use mild telepathy. Gravity would still be unreasonable, but he could definetly levitate objects and such.
Now, advanced physical attributes is just weird tbh. It doesn't fit the picture in any way I see it. THis wouldn't be a big problem, but according to your description, he becomes SUPER STRONG. From what yoU've written, it seems to me that this ability is more than just a mild increase, and almost as powerful as strength based core power. Which is really stupid if you ask me, since your actual core is magic based and not fitness based.
@Bartimaeus Btw, I ain't no GM or anything, but your dude is appereantlky super strong and fast, can manipulate gravity, and cancel magical abilities (how does that cancel electricity?). Like, that seems to be MILDLY *cough cough* overpowered. Plus, if I'm being honest, your core power has nothing to do with your other abilities. Which isn't exactly forbidden, but I'm under the assumption that non themed powers are always worse. Especially since extra power and speed are a default for almost every character.
@RoccanIronclad Sounds like an awful lot of players. But hey, if it does work out then this will be awesome. I'll mark myself interested playing a demonfiend (ik, ik, overused cliché and stuff, but I like tiny horns okay?)
@RoflsMazoy I'm gonna quickly post my interest here before all the spots are taken (which is, lets be real, a serious problem with high school superpower RPs since Boku no Hero Academia season 2 came out.) I also sense qutie a bit of UnOrdinary in the mix, but that might just be me, so correct me if I'm beating on the wrong bush.
