Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

All this talk of semblances just gave me an idea for my own character's semblance. Back when I was first creating Robert, I wasn't really putting much thought into what his semblance should be, I just knew that I didn't want him to have some kind of generic power (like shoots fireballs or has super strength). Heck, when I finally did come up with his semblance I didn't even think of any possible way it connected to an aspect of his character like semblances are supposed to. So reading all this discussion in the OOC makes me think, "Why don't I change it? It's not like it'd be that hard, he hasn't even discovered it anyway." And I just thought of the perfect power while randomly reading one of my old Spider-Man comics. Why not something similar to Black Cat's power (For those unfamiliar: "This power enabled her subliminally and psionically to affect probability fields, causing improbable, but not impossible, "unlucky" events to occur to enemies within her line of sight.") So why hasn't he discovered this ability yet? Why aren't enemies he's fighting constantly slipping on banana peels and getting crushed by oversized safes like a character from Loony Tunes? Because he doesn't realize that he's using his own semblance on himself. What do you think @Lugubrious? Good idea? Bad idea?

@SevenStormStyle I feel like such an idiot. How did it take me this long to finally realize the person in your signature is Medusa from Soul Eater? How?! How did it take me this long?!

So...I've read something very...interesting. And terrifying.

Plate armor apparently was minimally restrictive due to the way its weight was distributed around the body. Tournament armor, on the other hand...well, that stuff was ill-fitted, too heavy and wildly cumbersome.

Apparently tests have been done with untrained people, who can run and jump just fine while wearing full plate. OOoooooohhh boy

By the way @Prince of Seraphs, quick question, if say a certain redheaded idiot were to be running out of precious, life-giving air, would it be too much of a stretch to say that the Ogdoad's cave might have an air pocket not too far in? I'm not knowledgeable in the workings of underwater caves and it is your creation anyway.

When I made my character I thought having her be able to shield herself completely from other peoples perception (at a cost) and giving her secondary collapsible, undetectable daggers was over powered. Now I feel like I should have amped it up more.

@Prince of Seraphs

Am I the only one who feels that they may have underpowered their character?

That moment when you happen to casually look at the Semblance and equipment for a character.

See what they add up to combined.

and they op as fuck man

@Krayzikk

Blegh, I hated SAO. The concept had so much potential, like the Matrix meets Tron, but it was so horribly executed.

Mother Theresa on the hood of a Mercedes Bendz, I am lost. (How do I tell Hari that I can't remember what Shiro's text said?) D :

@SevenStormStyle

I know he's probably got a lot of posts, but you could go on his profile and search through his posts. You should eventually find it.

I'm ginger. The only nutrients I need are the souls of my enemies. I shall survive as long as I want.

Robert Fallson - The Lake

The red-haired teen impacted with the water, causing quite a large splash. Robert stayed submerged for half a minute before sticking his head above the water and spitting it out like a fountain. "Only now, after already having had the lake water in my mouth, did I just realize that this might not be the cleanest source to drink from. Oh well, can't do anything about it now," he said. Taking a huge gulp of air, the boy dove back under the water. Unlike Shiro, he didn't have anything to keep his scroll dry so Robert left it with the rest of his belongings at the top of the cliff. With no light source and no re-breather, he was left with only one option, staying near the shallow ends of the lake.

Checking the shallow ends of the lake was boring and tedious work, but Robert didn't mind. It was certainly annoying that he had to swim back to the surface for air every minute or so, but just knowing that he was helping his friends was enough for him to not care. Since he didn't have any form of communication available to him, he had to keep looking at the blurry figures that were the other students checking the lake. It was when he looked to check on Shiro that he saw it. A large tongue shot out from the dark and grabbed one of Ebon's drones. Robert didn't know what type of Grimm it was, but a tongue that huge would have to belong to a pretty large Grimm. The redhead swam to the surface for another gulp of air before diving back down, this time toward Shiro. He wanted to fire his weapons at the Ogdoad, but even if his weapons weren't still unable to fire thanks to the fight with Megaladeus, the tiger-faunas was way too close for Robert's comfort.

These are the songs I listen to when I feel like crap. Hope it helps.

@Prince of Seraphs

Weird how many Avril songs are on my playlist now.
