Hm, I might just go with LeeRoy's idea and make Thompson a Badass Normal fitted with an intermediate-tier suit of power armor. Changes to his weaponry will also be made.

Might be interesting.
Post in the works. If it isn't posted today, it will probably be posted tomorrow.

Never again.
Has Noruf been taken?
ASTA here to spread the morning cheer.

Knowing RPG, it'll break down in about an hour or so.
Hopefully I didn't kill the OOC thread with my outburst.

When Crapton ran a Multiverse there was another guy who used portals like this.Except he had huge limitations placed on him.He could only place them in spots that he had touched. Though he could cut people in half if they got caught between two portals.


Yeah, I'm not interested in the 'cutting people in half' bit, as I said above.

Whatever happened to Crapton anyway? Or is he going by another name that I don't know about yet?

Alright. You want you character to have spatial manipulation. Right. I can work with that but you cannot insta kill an opponent-pc who gets trapped in the field. Damaging yes, but a theoretical white-hole effect takes place ejecting them out, damaged certainly and based on tier level it could be deadly but no insta kill. I am working through the other aspects of the power that bother me. If we cannot come to an accord then this character is a no go. Also I am still waiting for Rilla's opine.


Actually, I'll take out the damaging effect entirely. It's not required, now that I think about it, but the 'ejection' ability is interesting and reasonable.

You could probably fix that by setting a cool down time, or even having to reach a certain amount of perps before being able to create a wormhole. Mix that in with a number of uses and it should be fine.


There is a cool-down time in place, actually, as well as a hardcap limit on the amount of wormholes BoT can make.

Besides the "DODGE EVERYTHING" abuse possiblity, what are the other issues people are finding with this particular power? I also saw Melon's concern, which is very much legitimate, and I admit was an oversight on my part. It will be changed as soon as possible.

Also, because you favor guns for -winning- its already been made fairly apparent you're not interested in the main point of Arena, which is to make compelling narrative surrounding fights. For shame.


So you're implying firefights are not more intense than 13th century battles featuring armored knights and rows of spearmen.

This seems more like an opinion rather than a fact, I'd say.

Also, the reason given for me favoring firearms over swords is my own personal stance on the whole thing. I just like modern weapons more than ancient ones, just like how you [apparently] enjoy swords more. In this MV, these preferences matters little considering both pistol and blade are on the same level.

And frankly, nowhere did I say I was playing to win. If that were the case, I'd give my characters a lot more abilities than what they have now. Or something like that.

LOL. I could careless. You don't have to partake in this. I am saying to you, you don't have to play if you feel I am a tyrant. You can walk away and do what ever else you want in the site. I am not forcing you to join, this RP doesn't depend on you participating for it to go forward.


I actually want to join; I don't need anyone to force me to join, lol. I never said it depended on me participating in order for it to move forward. It's pretty obvious it was doing pretty damn good prior to my arrival, after all, especially seeing all of the posts and characters submitted around the time I first showed up.
