At least Bethesda treats us like we're people instead of wallets on legs that need milking machines, like EA seems to think customers are.

It's an accident. That's my story and I'm sticking to it until Zeke ends up in the corner crying because somebody yelled at him for apologizing. *Cough*@Kalleth*Cough*
@Kalleth Gaan kak man. Afrikaans is nie 'weird' nie. Probeer die Japanese taal. Nou daai is net moelikheid.
[Hider]*Something rude*. Afrikaans isn't weird. Try Japanese. Now that's trouble.[/spoiler]
Now you've just got one very confused and scared Zeke. Is that what you want, @Kalleth, is that really what you want?

Haai, julle wat skryf in ander tale. Weet jy nie dis moelik om te lees vir ons wat die taal praat nie?
What's the most awkward thing that could happen to Zeke? I know!

"Eh!" Zeke dropped the cloud painting at the sudden noise, bumping into the girl in his surprise. He pushed himself up, slipped on something, and by the end of a sequence of movements he'd not want to remember, ended up face down on her chest. Scrambling away, he feels his cheeks heat up and starts apologizing. "Sorry, sorry, sorry." He puts his hands together in front of him, fingers against his forehead. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to knock you over."
This is weird for him. It's the closest contact he'd had with anyone his own age. What was he supposed to do? He apologized, but what else? "Um..."

@Aiyanna C. How are you doing, @liferusher?
A wild co-GM appears! What will you do?
@Old Amsterdam, this is why we talk first. You forgot Those on High!
Co-GM here. Let me give you a rundown of Epic City from the perspective of the common man:
- The city is ruled by extremely powerful Epics known as Those on High. Each of them are living WMDs, capable of wiping out cities. However, they confine their abilities to Epic City, where they operate in an uneasy but stable truce, defining their roles in the City. Each may have a Herald; a lesser Epic or mortal who acts in their stead; or an Heir; a lesser Epic of similar ability they're grooming as a replacement.
Each of Those on High have two weaknesses, one shared and the other unique, that would destroy them. Needless to say, these are closely guarded secrets.
- The High Prescient: An absolute mystery, but known to have incredible powers of precognition. Some suspect they have other time-related abilities. No known Herald or Heir.
- The High Clairvoyant: Capable of touching the minds of every being in Epic City, the High Clairvoyant is a powerful telepath. She's been known to completely shut down the brains of those who offend her. Current Herald: her husband, a British man named Porter.
- The High Electric: An energy-manipulator who once lit up the sky over EC like a second sun. He contents himself with maintaining the electrical grid of Epic City. His Herald is Hale, a normal man who runs the power utility.
- The High Island: A presence within the fabric of the city who maintains the structure of Epic City, rebuilding buildings, roads and even individual doors and windows almost as soon as they're broken. He has no Herald, though has been interested in electing one.
- The High Venom: A woman (most guess) with more or less complete control over biology, her own and others. She prevents major diseases and backs hospitals, and supports the "freaks", those whose powers mutate their bodies. However, she's also hardly shy about stealing beggars and the terminal as "test subjects". Prefers to have her "freaks" fight for her approval over picking one Herald.
Below that are the celebrity Epics; especially flashy or well-known Epics who are the target of most of the population's aspirations or admiration. This list includes Mr Mass and Lady Lust, two of the oldest heroes still operating, the 'bad boy' Dragon Heart, the armoured heroine Spectrum, and the "elemental wizard" Magus.
- Then we get the working-class Epics, those who put their powers to use in business or have some other focus in their life. These include the Judge Arthur "Fields" Savage, the white-hat thief Kat, and a man named Calico, who runs the black market.
Finally, the majority of the population is made up of weak Epics and "normal" people much like everyone in the real world. The ECPD Chief of Police, Jerry, the infamous gang leader Khan, the Mayor, and most NPCs will be in this category.
As for current power groups? The police and some Epics wage a low-level war against villainous Epics and the normal-supremacist gang known as the Kryptonites, after the famous weakness of an overpowered comic-book Epic.

@Zelosse, perhaps tell us here who's bunking with who and we can bring it up in character later. Rather than post a speech, we can assume it's on a noticeboard somewhere.
