That was why you did it--to get a rise out of us. I'll back off, though, and leave to to the GMs to handle.

> Wait, Lugu you want to keep Dakota? To what purpose, may I ask? To not waste a perfectly good character. As an NPC, he'll be here but you need not control him. He might just appear around the school.

MMM, thanks for the update. @Agent, your character is so ludicrously zany that I love it. Two alterations I recommend: the only way to deploy the Unsubtle is with the manned Airjets, meaning that it can only be put in use on away missions. It really doesn't have much of a use in an sort of casual setting, anyway. The second is that he be given a sidearm, a simple, semiautomatic revolver with a dust plug rather than a barrel, to use in said casual settings. @Prince, I have...well, a lot of weapon ideas. A particularly good one I have been saving up, one that I am hesitant to share, is as follows. The student has four chainsaws, all of them much like swords, about two feet long each, and only about three inches wide. These are stored in slots on a small metal backpack the student wears, which also charges them with electricity coming from two dust batteries when they're there. The student is also equipped with two specialized shoes, the bottoms of which have ports that a chainsaw can be inserted into, allowing them to function like treads. Said chainsaws can also be thrown, and will remain active as long as they're switched on. In this way, the user is capable of attacking with chainsaws both in hands and on feet, move at high speed across the ground and up walls, and cut down anything that stands in their way. The saws' names are spraypainted in white onto the sides of their guide bars: Ego Torqueat (I hurt), Ego Scalpere (I slice), Ego Praecidi (I cut) and Ego Finire (I end). I have more, including but not limited to, a Grand Knuckle, an Egyptian-themed missile silo, a special shotgun, a revolver hammer, a staff/sniper rifle, watery boots, a fan shield, and a fiery wheel. @Narc, Rayna is accepted. @Dharc, I also like Vivian more than Dakota. Why don't we make him an NPC for now; I'll hang onto the character, and you main Vivian instead?

Congratulations, you were melodramatic! More impressive, though, is that a month passed by in this roleplay with less than three posts, none of which are yours, and you've been with us since the last RP, so you've had a hell of a lot of time to plan, and now when someone asks for a post at last you lash out at everyone in a fit of sarcasm. Way to make your point.

I'm genuinely relieved I have complete strangers to help defend me. Thanks for the support, guys. Stella, I didn't reject your character, I asked for a minor edit, and it should have been obvious from the way I'm conducting myself that I have a predilection to resolve all issues arising from characters quickly and politely. You seem grasped by the idea that I am being callous, judgmental, and unfair, but I have not heard such negativity from anyone else, and anyone can see that I haven't singled you out for abuse. I've asked several other people, like Scarifar, to make edits to their characters, and it's just fine. Unhappiness with a part doesn't negate the whole. That said, your own actions have made me exceedingly unhappy. If you can work yourself out of this funk, then there is no problem with your continued presence here. If you still think me, after reading all this, to be intolerant and condemnatory, perhaps you would be better suited somewhere else. @McFazzer, very nice. The Personal Space ability reminds me of Bridgett's old one, but since she is gone there is no need to look into it further. The guy who is generally upbeat but hides a powerful pride can be a major catalyst for character development. Perhaps you could expound further on his combat style or personality, but I have no qualms about accepting Victor as is. And remember, if you want me to make you a picture, more appearance description is better (like what color t-shirt, any designs, other facial features, shoes, legwear, neckwear, glasses or goggles, so on) @Prince, the double-wielding small weapons (with or without transforming) is pretty common. I'd be interested to see what you might come up with. I'll get back to you on new weapon ideas. Same for Seilber. @Backstory, yeah, I forgot to put that section in. We'll delve into our individual characters in the IC, and perhaps summarize on our sheets later for reference.

A good thing that I never called your character a 'copy' then. The only thing I'm strict about is being reasonable, which includes twisting my words. Of course I'll allow you to join if you're willing to.

There are similarities between the two abilities that simply cannot be denied: moving extremely quickly while leaving behind an image of oneself. However, if the ability means that much to you, and is that quintessential to your character, I'll overlook their similarities. I pride myself on being a flexible man; there's no need to be cynical. @McFazzer, you bet! I'd be very interested to see this robot arm weapon.

While I love the character, it seems that your semblance is actually taken...by a character from the actual show, no less. Blake Belladonna uses something very similar called 'shadow'. Terrible luck chummy.

> Dakota is free! I believe that there's some desire for you to be on Seilber's team. Enter the document and see if you find it agreeable.

I never knew google docs was so much fun! Looking forward to your character, Stella. All discussion of teams would be good on the document, from now on. If you're not aware, you can find it in the players section of the OP.
