<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

Sreig was a huge example for me. He is a being that a high resistivity to nearly everything. But with fights against him, the other made him seem like his resistivity was blank. Also with that being i kinda just got really annoyed and let him get hurt despite the fact that he isn't supposed to get hurt easily.

@Spiritblitz

Stand your ground. The best way to establish the fact that your character is stronger or faster is to up the extremity of your descriptors. That gets the point across that, "Oh, heck, this one is fast," instead of just letting frustration get the better of you and letting your character get pushed around, which does the opposite in reality. And if it does annoy you because it doesn't stop, there's always the option of expressing yourself to us OOC. We'll listen, and even if it takes 5 or 6 instances to beat it into our stubborn heads, we'll get it.

*the blade slams into my crystalline back and sends me flying forward; in the time I am flying I create a portal that sucks away my momentum and rights me on the other side*

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

*once the pain starts I redirect the feeling to Spectre's mind, but I am thrown off just enough that my other shurikens dissipate before I can use them again; the rock pillar shatters against my foot and the segment of your rock dome just above you explodes*

@whizzball1

*The chunks of rock from the explosion swirl around over my head, in a circle*
Cool!
*Out from the clear energy spreading inside you also emerges green, which starts to eat away at your body as more and more of it forms and spreads*

The point is to figure out what hurts Spirit, not pull impossible moves out of a hat. Look at Zoey; she didn't have to do something incredibly strong or fast to hurt Spirit--it just took a bit of cleverness.

@whizzball1

I do see where he's coming from. Not everyone has lightning reflexes, instantaneous move speeds, or etc. Sometimes it seems like all characters can only be beaten by using their weakness against them, when the reality is that faster opponents should be able to land some strikes, or stronger opponents should dish out more damage with their landed hits. If every character only lost because if a weakness, then it'd get pretty boring. Take Rythian, for example. He's the living embodiment of Ridge's weakness, but Ridge still stood toe to toe with him because, physically, he's way out of Rythian's league.

*the paths the bullets traverse within me are rendered crystalline and the bullets exit me in a shower of shards; I wince in pain as the crystals reinsert themselves; as I do this, I snap my fingers again and more light shurikens appear around you, slicing into you*

@whizzball1

*The bullets leave behind a transparent energy, and when you use your light shuriken attack your insides are inflicted with tremendous pain. The first scratches my face, but the rest are stopped by a rock dome erected around me. A sharp rock pillar impales your foot from below spontaneously*

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

*a portal appears in front of me as you switch weapons and the bullets shoot through it and out behind me*

@whizzball1

*One bullet is guided in an arch over you, with a purplish aura, without touching you. All the bullets I fired curve back around and just before making contact with your portal, are transported through my ownblack portals that appear to have stars in them (resembling a night's sky) and are released inside of you, creating only exit wounds*

Not if it's quick.

@Spiritblitz

That's pain! Harm can still be donevwithout pain, like putting someobe under before amputation.

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

*shadow envelops my body, absorbing the power of the runes until they wink out of existence*

@whizzball1

*My scythe turns into a bolt-action sniper rifle and I fire bullets at you in quick succession*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

No harm. Just death.

@Spiritblitz

Death is harm!

*falls through a portal before you do so, pops up on one side of X, and does no more*

@Nimda
I suppose you never did say that you would attack me.

@whizzball1

Come peacefully to avoid harm, scoundrel!

*Waits for an opportunity*

-Ruby- It is! And, hopefully, we'll have everybody soon enough. Right now we have to defeat Spirit here so we can put him into stasis, and then we can go and find Tempo.

Then let's do it!
