>I've a few questions. Will this be done here on the forum? And what are the limits in terms of powers? I'm aware that the show is a more gritty and "realistic" take when it comes to the effects of supes' abilities, but how wild can we get here?

I have an RP idea in mind where you play either a militarized task force designed to eliminate paranormal activity, or something akin to the Umbrella Secret Service.

I am trying to worldbuild god civs akin to the Time Lords or Xeelee, but so far I've yet to get anything concrete down. It is a tad frustrating, but I'll come up with something eventually. I hope.

@Obscene: And that is true. I might try that with a character I'm making for a fic actually. Though they'll be no-nonsense in a largely jovial kind of way.

Yeah. Static was just what popped into my head as the closest descriptor since those are less focused on the character's arc or internal struggle. Not the best wording to use admittedly.

I just want more protagonists with that same resolve, or barring that ones who aren't confused young adults looking to find their place in life analogues.

Right right. Trying to escape the dimension's watchful eye and figure out how to portal out could make for a cool puzzle arc. I'm a fan of cosmic horror stuff, so the idea already appeals to me.
>Naturally we'd need to figure out why one would need to escape to begin with, as Aurus as I've decided to call it, won't actually be much of an antagonistic threat.

When you say interior space, you mean inside of the sentient dimension itself?
Even going so far as to make it escapable when someone ends up inside. I like the way you think
>Yeah. I mean it is just a dimension with intelligence. While someone who has no knowledge of dimensional travel nor powers or tools might be stuck until it opens a portal to let them out, someone with those things could escape. Whether they could do so easily or not depends on their knowledge and skill versus the dimension's, not accounting for sheer power differences of course.

I think that'd be reasonable. Definitely wouldn't be out of place in MR.
>I don't think I'd have it be able to stop time, however. More just weaponized effects. As far as its interior space goes though, I'd say skies the limit in terms of what it can do, though none of the changes it makes can't be overcome by particularly skilled or capable beings that may have gotten transported inside. Provided they have the means and conflict goes that far anyway.
>As for what they'd look like in the case of a sapient dimension... well I've no idea. I kind of just had it in mind to have the manipulation of spacetime on a localized scale outside of the dimension's interior be an effect created directly by its avatar.
>As an example: Shatterbomb.

I'm also going to apologize in advance for not checking the OOC as often as I should. I'm usually pretty quick about the IC. What do spacetime devices look like?
>Depends on the sci-fi setting. In the case of the place I got the term from, Orion's Arm, generally they're like cannons or emplacements or a bomb that sends disturbances through the skein of spacetime, effectively disintegrating anything within a certain range as their atomic structures are like, decoupled.

Translation for the uncultured?
>Metric Engineering is spacetime engineering or weaponry. Dynakinesis is just energy manipulation.
<Snipped quote by Zyx>
You could probably make use of limited bandwidth that a dimension can transmit if you wanted to figure out things in combat. Somehow it harnesses a fragment of its power to manifest attacks in other realms.
>That's a good idea. Maybe something like energy transmitted or even attacks based around something like Metric Engineering. Or just spatial attacks/telekinetic effects limited to something on the level of the Endbringer Behemoth's Dynakinesis.
>The one thing I will say I'm not sure of is what it's avatar should be able to do ability-wise, but then again I'm largely fine with not having to use it in combat.
