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.

So... is there now two witches? Cause that seemed kind of unfair/cheap to just... kill someone else's (especially in a single post), especially without the statement of the witch being there. Not to mention I still want to know how Rei is alive, if she literally turned the entire lake into acid... an entire lake, while being attacked, and having limited air supply. That seems extremely strong, especially if 'water' is under your weaknesses that doesn't seem to make sense...

Edit: @Dark Light Paine would probably be off to help Rei. He'd probably be focused on that, though could attack a few for himself. Ya still have to show up at the scene, so worry about that a bit more. There was never a specification as too how many kappa their where or their locations specifically just that 'more' bloated corpses were rising...
@Hitman

Are you okay?

@azoicsiren

I forgot to ask. Is the knife gif from a show or is it just a random gif you found?

@azoicsiren
Best o luck
who wants to go next or should we leave it open?
Paine didn't understand what was going on between the group, there seemed to be some sort of relationship issue. It wasn't his particular field of expertise so there was no reason to try and do much about it, it was barely the first day of school after all. He was glad to have a new friend among the group however. Even if one of them seemed to be acting a bit cold due to some relationship issues and the other seemed to be a jerk, it was better to have made one friend than none.

"Not to go to the pond or to go to the pond or to go to the pond. Not to go to the pond or to go to the pond. Well if we go to the pond we could actively be in danger, however the danger is demons. The danger kappans specifically. I want to go see a kappa, heck if we're lucky their might be a small enough kappa to try and capture. That would be pretty awesome! Although there is the risk of getting hurt."

Paine had paused only to eat the breakfast that had been sitting around, and only paused for a few minutes as he practically started to inhale the food.

"But everyone else here seems to be rather confident. Which means they're actually a bit strong or idiots, and while some of them did act like jerks that doesn't mean they're idiots. Well, sometimes it does but not a lot I don't think. They weren't a full scale dumb idiot kind of person so they're probably not. So they could probably take a Kappa with two of them at once, yeah." Paine let out a pause.

"And if anything goes wrong we can try to simply run back. Kappas have to be careful not to topple over, so all we need to do is maybe find a hill along the way or perform evasive maneuvers and be careful not to get caught. Seeing as people are already going there it's probably have a lot more strength in numbers and such than leave the alone, right?"

Paine paused to get out of a chair and put his dishes in the sink. He would wash them down and keep talking.

"Not only that, if anyone in particular is in trouble I can try helping them out. It shouldn't be too hard unless someone goes head first in the water where we have a hard time seeing them or fighting, although I don't anyone would risk that unless they're very desperate.. Cucumbers! Don't forget emergency cucumbers as back ups. It has saved a few lives when it comes to Kappas, I think or according to a bunch of reading. So yeah, it won't be too much of an issue going there."

Paine would put on their official robings rather than their pajamas, gather a few cucumbers from the fridge and head off to see some Kappas. There was bright and wide grin spreading across his face the whole while. He didn't want to get surprised attacked along the way, so he was very careful to create four thick invisible barriers around him and kept them moving along as he walked and talked. He had a bit of time to focus and create them along the way too to bolster their size, but there was still a few small gaps but the barriers generally covered the vital spots and would still stop or be in the way of most attacks

"What did school want us to do today anyways? Maybe just acquainted and used to another but this is going to be so much more fun! Plus, easier to find out how team work or balance each other out by a combat exercise. I think."

"Hi there I'm here to check out th-"

Paine would arrive probably a moment before Rei dived into the water. His rather excited and happy face from a second ago would change to a degree of worry and horror as Rei dived in. This, this may be an issue. He certainly hoped she new what she was doing, or maybe had some cool water based ability in which she had the advantage in. Maybe she was a water bender and could easily tear apart everything inside and could see under the water, not to mention above all breathe. That was hopeful thinking though.

Just to be safe, he created a thin but thick barrier without sharp edges, roughly next to where he saw her dive in. He extended it outward to act like a thin handle bar about 6 feet long in length and an inch in width to grip onto. He was going for having the 'handle bar' go deeper into the water rather than having a large handle. Either way he prepared to pull the handle bar out at a sign of struggle or if she grabbed onto it. It was doubtful but some safety was better than none. He made sure not to get too close to the water himself.

"If ya need help, feel around for a handle bar!" He called out.

He hoped and doubted she would need it, at least not immediately.
