X-Men: The Grinder Chronicles

@themadhatter420 Oh, before I forget, my character just arrived on scene and is now standing next to Alex to fend off any more attackers. Just so you know. He also made a rednack trip and fall.

X-Men: The Grinder Chronicles

A teacher broke up the 'fight'...I call for night expidition into redneck country!!! Just for fun!

X-Men: The Grinder Chronicles

David only saw Alex when it was all too late. He was already too far off. Never the less, David ran up to Alex. Why would he go to those protesters!? He's only making it difficult for himself! What is he planning on doing. He kept thinking. Though the bag he was carrying slowed him down. He couldn't reach Alex before Alex reached the protesters. He saw how Alex said something. David couldn't hear what. Maybe he's trying to convince their standpoint? He looks charismatic enough. Oh, who am I fooling? They're rednecks. But then David saw the plastic bottle flying. "Uh-oh..." he said out loud as he stopped.

He saw how Alex pulled his right arm back. No! No! No! No! No! David's mind screamed. Almost in slow motion he saw how the redneck was punched. "Damn it!" he yelled. But of course, the Rednecks got furious. David tried to sprint next to Alex as fast as he good, dropping his backpack and bag so they wouldn't hold him down. A redneck was already rolling up his sleeves. That man could take 2 steps while he pulled his arm back before David stretched his arm out and yelled: "No!" His powers must have seen it as a command. Because a faint black aura formed around the man's boots. Not enough to lift him entirely. Instead it lifted his feet a foot above ground. Making the man lose his balance and fall face first into the dirt. "Why did you do that!?" David yelled as he finally stood next to Alex. Oh this is bad for the school. This is bad for the mutants. This is bad for me! They will expel me! But then a strange courage boiled up from the usual survival cowardness David normally had. No! Mutants have to stand together now. This is a school. We are trying to better ourselves! he thought. His expression went from scared 'lets-get-the-hell-out-of-here' to 'I-will-stand-and-defend-my-fellow-mutants'.

X-Men: The Grinder Chronicles

Which form is delta!? He read my mind! He read my mind! Wait, how much did he read? Does he knows about my mom's dishes? David thought, but was brought at ease when Alex said that he wouldn't read his mind without asking. "Haha! Yeah, I totally get that." David said, but with his voice indicating that he totally didn't get it. Man, if i could read minds, I wouldn't stop doing it. Though, it's not really an ethical thing to do, is it? Wait, do we have ethics here? I read that somewhere, i think. David, for a moment, had sunken into his own thoughts. But after shaking his head again he quickly replied: "Oh and about the particles. Well, Alpha form is what you'd call the normal form. Only i can see it." he said. Should I tell him about the purple aurora? Nah, he's a dude. It's not important "Then there's Beta particles. Those are like insanely hot. So they cook the air around them, making plasma." he continued. Should I tell him I almost burned a goal down once? It does sound cool. "I accidentally burned a goal down once." he add, in a matter-of-factly voice. "Delta particles you probably already saw with my bag. They just levitate things." he then finished.

David then noticed the steady flow of freshmen going out of the Auditorium. "I still have to deliver this bag to my dorm room in the other building. My room is 105." he said, raising his bag. Showing it as proof. He then proceeded to walk with the flow outside. The dorm building was on the right side from the entrance. But instead of going there, David glared at the protesters. He remembered the time he feared that his classmates would insult him as monster. He remembered the fear that he would have to register as something special. He hated the Mutant Registration Act.

X-Men: The Grinder Chronicles

Do we have an invisibility mutant? Or a mutant that can walk through walls like Kitty? Or like, someone that can make himself and others fly? Because if that's the case, I totally see the less 'mature' mutants escaping the campus at night and pulling some jokes on the local rednecks. If we're going that way of course.

X-Men: The Grinder Chronicles

Well most certaintly a investigation would take place. The people involved would be questioned. Politicians would gather reviving the act or attacking it. Rednecks would get media attention posing with their wounds. All in all, it sounds like the start of a very interesting plot. Mutants having to prove that they are no danger to humanity while in fact they really are in some way or another.

Then again, this is Dark's RP so i want to wait until he says it would be okay. Though, if i'll join in, i'd probably levitate some guys and shoot maximum 1 guy in the arm resulting in burn wounds. Crisping an entire redneck like bacon is probably a very bad idea.

X-Men: The Grinder Chronicles

Either that is exactly what Dark Eternity wants OR exactly what he doesnt want... never the less the results are bound to be interesting.

EDIT: You all want to punch some rednecks? If Dark allows it, we'll have a real redneck BBQ!!! (hint: David's beta particles)

X-Men: The Grinder Chronicles

I'm just going to pause a little so other can catch up in their own conversations if you don't mind @King Kindred.

Also, like King said it, don't force yourself and a quick recovery!

X-Men: The Grinder Chronicles

Is he joking? Surely he's joking...I mean...would they allow him to enter this school with THAT!? David thought, while blood began to drain out of his face. A quickly flash of memory passed. The girl with the baseball bat. The 4-armed lizard man. The guy that just entered and fell unconscious. Then another memory flashed by. The very first time he used his power. During soccer. He had burned a net. He could kill someone. He could be serious... what do I do? Do I run? Do I stand still? But right then Alex started laughing. And with that, all tension in David flowed out like water.

A telepath. Hmm, cool power I suppose. As long as he doesn't use it on me. Wait, does he know what I'm thinking right now? Or do i give him some sort of permission? Should I test it? Think of something...special. But what? Oh maybe think about that one time I blew up mom's dishes. No wait, that might give him the wrong impression. He kept on thinking. Until he shook himself back into the real world. "Wha-What can i do? Oh!? Euhm. Well...euhm." He never had to explain his power to a fellow mutant before. Do i go all meta-science? With alpha form and delta form? No, he doesn't look much like a scientist. he thought. Then he said: "I can sort of change the form of cosmic particles into a superheated state creating a plasma or anti-gravitons." he said, before realizing that was still way to scientific. "I mean I can sort of shoot plasma and levitate things!" he quickly added, hoping that would be a much better explanation.

Faction:Martian Front (The Luna Wars Were a Thing)

The big guns are used when outside forces (like raiders) make an attempt to raid Dig Site Alpha mostly. The security forces are more for internal danger like trouble-makers. I placed some numbers to get an idea of how many troops they have. Also, i want to keep the corporate idea. NHU is, in essence, a mining corporation aimed for big money. So they don't really expect that entire factions will come around and start shooting them. My initial idea was to, over time, hire more and more mercenaries from a player's faction.

ArenaSnow already agreed about the ore-trading. We discussed it in PM.
