Sure, go ahead. Korbl would prefer the feet only (And IC-wise, he's not that handicapped since he had fought with cuffs before.) but I'll leave it to you. If Kai can gnash through his cuffs then go ahead.

They stored his swords here? Körbl eyes boggled at that, why would they think that was a good idea? It's been months since he was arrested and sent here.

"No, not anymore. Broke during the fight," Recalling his favorite sword, one that accompanied him throughout his entire journey, was destroyed completely stung him. Leaving him sullen before sighing. "But still, the rest are good blade."

Well, messer types of swords. Good enough for one hand, and he carried multiple ones of them. It wasn't familiar large ones but it was good enough.

As to their quality? He pointed a finger to himself and grinned. "And with me? Can cut diamonds."

Körbl however then gestured to his chains and shook his head. "No, warden is smart. These are welded. Know that I would escape easier if it has keys, so no keys. Holding and fighting with cuffs is not a problem, have fought like these before."

"But, if little fraulein." He then subtly pointed to Kailani. "Bites only the chains, then I can move like normal."

"And if I can move like normal..." A wide grin broke out and he stated casually. "Then it's no problem."

As more details came in, Körbl only hummed as he started to plan his route to get to the group. An alarm distracting the guards would allow him some time to carve out a weakspot on the glass. Combined with the weight and momentum of the chains, he definitely can crack it open.

How fortunate then, he managed to secure a key component for that. Körbl idly felt the sharp piece of tray in his hand.

"As for the messers, we'll see. If close enough to secure, then I'll go myself. If not, then we escape first." Körbl decided, those swords weren't the end goal and he can reforge some of them once he get out.

Guess no one saw it for now. Körbl eyes flicked around the guards, now all he had to do was shave it down and sharpen it over time.

Then hearing Abby mention an escape breakout, that got his attention immediately.

The layouts of the plan seem solid, if dubious since it sounded too good to be true.

But that's what's life is, dubious and risky.

"...I have a condition."

@Blazion

Körbl glanced towards Kailani, confusing some of them before he went in-depth to his own plan. "Free her from the collar and muzzle first."

" I can still fight with the cuffs." He then gestured to the cuffs but a shake of his legs had the ball chains rattle softly. "But these reduce my mobility."

"If her teeth are as strong as she says, she can bite off the chains. Once it's off..." Körbl looked at the guards briefly before focusing on Abby. "I'll cut a path to the warden."

That being said, if there was another way to get it off, Körbl would be more than happy to listen. He has an alternative plan, one that might take him longer but still, a plan.

"Well, worse come to worse." Körbl stared at the collar and muzzle workings before deciding on the only way he know how to solve it. "I can cut open the collar, it'll be a shock to us both, but there it is."
Just a heads up but I'll be posting this Thursday night soonest, Xmas is getting closer so works increasing tremendously.

“I see where this is going and I forfeit.” Randolph said, a solemn expression forming. “In a physical, and honorable fight, I don’t feel confident in my odds. But I do respect your commitment to physical improvement. I thought us inimical, but now I believe we are share much more semblance than I believed. If anyone else wants to fight, don’t let me stop you…” Randolph concluded, before having a second thought and adding“ “…besides, they might let me eat the loser.” Randolph said with a grin. They let him eat a few metahumans before, and Randolph enjoyed sampling the taste their powers gave their flesh, something like a box of assorted chocolates. One never really knows what they will taste.


"That's disappointing," Körbl said off-handedly. "But sure, do what you want with the corpse."

So she stared back at him with eyes that seemed to flash with fiery light as she answered him, "Well I don't know about the strongest, but from my experience, most men do tend to burn up all the same."


"Then let's see how bright I'll burn, come closer then, fraulein." Körbl pointed to her with his wooden spoon and accompanied by a large smile. Daring her to take the first move first.

"Maybe let's set up an arena and find out.", Alfred said with a quiet voice, the usual kind. "Though I'd prefer being able to transform into my uh… full form, if you know what I mean. Not exactly doable when there's a suppressor on my ankle. Heh. Though it's probably you, anyway. We've seen enough to know that."

Nope, Alfred didn't really think that. He was just telling Körbl what he thought he wanted to hear and eventually steer the discussion into something less of an ingredient for a prison brawl that might see his book and noodle privileges revoked.


"Hmph, perhaps the moment you can...transform, then I'll definitely come back for you."

Abby didn’t think of herself as the strongest here, but she was more than capable in a fight. “I can handle myself in a fight; I just need some more juice to get myself ready.” She said addressing Körbl. Recently she had been faking medical aliments to get close to the MRI and x-ray machines; siphoning radiation for when she tries to escape.

Abby was curious what kind of abilities they all had; perhaps they could be useful to her escape. “Maybe we can measure how strong we are; if we tell each other what our superpowers are? I'm curious what you guys can do?” She didn’t care much for the pissing contest they were having; she wanted to see if they were useful enough for her plan.


The guards must really be lax today, if they're allowing them to talk this much. Körbl thought idly before settling back down, looks like he'll have to go empty of a fight.

For now.

Hearing Abby asking what they can do, Körbl stared at the spoon before eyes glanced towards the child that was eating everything, including the metallic parts of the utensils.

Then it hit him, Körbl glanced towards the spoon and then tray. Maybe it'll work?

"I'm merely a humble sword master...without a sword. That broke when I was arrested." Taking this opportunity, Körbl waved his hands and position himself at an angle. His tray mirroring him as part of it hovered from the table, just also enough that the guard assigned to the sides wasn't able to see it.

"It was during a fight with one of the New York heroes," Körbl smiled widely as he recalled that particular fond memory. The rush, the speed, and the thrill. He felt truly alive during that moment. "Ah, it was a great fight."

All the while, he swapped his hand of holding the spoon and rested it upwards on the tray. Pressing the tray downwards.

Then quietly, his other hand rested on the edges of the tray, fingers gripped it before he exerted his full strength downwards on it like a hydraulic press machine. Steadily and quietly, he bent its downwards like folding a piece of paper. Then flipping it upwards again in a similar fashion, he had hoped to induce metal fatigue onto that part alone.

"I was, unfortunately, lacking, fraulein, and was trounced like a sack of potatoes." Körbl drew out his story until he finally felt it soft and pliable enough that a single sudden motion would've snapped that small part of the metal. "Of course, ever since then, they placed all this...onto me."

While he pointed the spoon to himself, then to the cuffs, and shook his legs to indicate the iron ball and chain around his angles, Körbl decided to risk it all as he turned towards the omnivorous child thing.

@Blazion

"Eat a bunch? Then have this for dessert, kleines kind." Körbl flicked his wrist, and slide his tray towards her alongside the wooden spoon. Not a single stain or remaining splatter of his leftover flew off during the entire process of sliding, the spoon merely wobbled. It then precisely stopped right in front of her as well.

"Eat up, you need more vegetables to grow big." He gestured to the spoon, mockingly even.

If one paid close attention, one of the edges of the tray was cleanly plucked off, almost like it was sliced by a knife, but with how fast the whole thing occurred and hoping that it wouldn't seem odd amongst her other tray. Körbl was betting his chances that no one would notice, especially as hidden in his hand now, was a sharp piece of metal.

Aight, I'll definitely submit a character sheet in that new RP.
"What do you mean by...strong?" Randolph interjected. "if you are looking for strength of character I believe it a difficult endeavor among criminals... Strength of will? I will indulge my pride and claim that I would be a fine specimen of that, I've endured experiences that would break the spirit of most. Are do you mean something so simple as strength of flesh? I admit I am lacking in that department somewhat, I neglect martial prowess in favor of strengthening my mind."



"We really talking about strength in a place like this?"
She scoffed before shoving a spoon full of muck into her mouth.


Her ears perked up when one of the inmates asked them if they were strong; she opened her mouth to say something but quickly closed it. She didn’t think she was very powerful. At best her powers could give someone a serious burn, or become incredibly sick. But she was not up there with people like Übermensch or Captain U.S.A. “I guess I’d say I’m capable in a fight.” Abby said shrugging her shoulders.


"Furthermore, what kind of strength would that even refer to? The strength of one's punches, how much devastation can be brought into a given area, how much fear could be inflicted?"

Alfred dropped several icecubes into his glass of water and sipped from it. "Power cannot be measured through any one standard alone. And it is my opinion that brute strength is simply the least of all powers one can have. Ehem. Anyway. I may seem small and insignificant in appearance, but I had destroyed a whole council of sorcerers. One of the ten did escape, but the fool ran into a portal. Poor Frosty still feels unfinished about the whole affair."


"Conversations of strength and weakness and who can fuck up who better is fucking useless. There will always be someone or a group of someones who can and will kick your ass. Save your breath so I don't have to smell it, along with every other jackass's unwashed armpits, genitals, rotting teeth, and shit-crusted ass cheeks. Even Death demons don't smell like rotting corpses. No offense, Randolph. 'Least you've a valid reason for it."


Körbl Meier

"What's this?" Grinning, his teeth showed brightly as Körbl listened to the various replies. More than he expected even.

"And here I thought everyone had lost their spines. How quaint." Körbl blood boiled and heart pounded with renewed excitement, he had resigned to thinking there won't be anyone willing to step up after his four altercations with other prisoners. Yet there are still willing to say so.

It didn't really matter what power they had, physical, mental, magical, technological, supernatural, Körbl didn't give a single thought about it. So long one was ready to answer, it was more than enough for him.

Already from afar, movement and activity from the guards had already spread as they try to move an unruly prisoner into place. That brief distraction was all that Körbl needed as he grabbed the wooden spoon. "Then onto my second question."

"Who amongst us...is the strongest?"
Körbl this time said loudly, body readied and willing to jump into action. It's been a long time since he had gotten into a proper fight.

Frankly, even a tussle against the guards seemed tempting at this rate. The pounding in his head was reaching a crescendo and lust for battle bottled over the past few month oozed outwards. Reaching a point where it was like an overflowed dam.

(If GM wants to have guards taze/restraint Körbl, this is the chance.)
Körbl Meier

Time passed as Körbl kept to his stance, mind whirling as numerous scenarios played in his head. One that stuck out especially was the last battle before he was sent into this asylum.

Bricks fly past, his eyes barely keeping up as the air itself tear and bend. Sound following later.

Körbl felt his blood boil and rise, sweat poured as well despite the fact he stood still doing nothing. Temperature rose and it felt like a sauna in his cell. If the prison had deigned to equip him with a monitoring system, they'll note that Körbl entire body was supremely active. As if he's fighting for real.

This went on until finally, the guard's activity came and stopped at his cell. Letting out other prisoners first before allowing him to go last.

"Chow time, you know the drill." One of the guards addressed him through the coms first, four to five other heavily armed and armored guards stationed far away equipped with fast-acting tranq guns.

Körbl finally stood up, walked to the back of his cell, and raised his arms. The cuffs in full view and hands open.

Only then, did the door to his prison open with a snap. The lead guard gestured to him to get out of the room instead of them going in themselves.

They learned that from the first altercation.

So Körbl silently moved, the two chain balls tugging along his feet and screeching on the ground as it was dragged behind. His first step outside of the cell had him greeted by the much cleaner or sterile air. Eyes studied his surroundings, guard position, angle, anything he could get his mind on.

"Get going!"

A single moment was all he was allowed before being shouted as guns trained on him, prompting him to make the journey to the cafeteria.

Strong as he was, sustenance was still a necessity. At least he can drink from the tap water he was allowed but eventually, he had to eat something.

The journey to the cafeteria was uneventful but it was calming for Körbl since he could stretch his leg around. Already, he can hear the chatter, tinkling of spoons and metal tray against one another. A guard swiftly kept his distance from him the moment he approach the entrance, and finally, Körbl entered the area.

He could see some of the prisoners turned away from his gaze when he made his entrance. His presence was already announced by the jingling chains and ball. The guards turned their heads to his spot, a seat with little or prisoners that are physically weaker than him. Especially from the pale-looking prisoner with black veins all over his body, giving a glance at Körbl. The latter of whom returned it without any fear or hesitation, fingers twitching in eagerness as he too sized the prisoner up.

Tall, strong, trained too. But body and movement seem off? Körbl thought quietly before he was nearly shoved into his seat by the barrel of a tranq gun. Barely the moment he had planted his rear, a tray was dumped unceremoniously onto the table, splattering parts of the area with food before a wooden spoon was slid next to it.

He wasn't even allowed to get his own food.

Sighing at that, it was certainly a bit too much. He only murdered one prisoner with a metal spoon across him once and that somehow got him the VIP treatment. Feeling more gazes from the guards above overlooking them.

The foods at least decent. Körbl idly thought to himself in between bites.

Two cannibals are eating a Clown. One says to the other, Does this taste funny to you?.”


"Nein, it taste of a bad joke." Körbl replied nonplussed, causing the guards assigned to him to shift but other than that, he continued to eat. The pun was good, so hopefully, his follow-up could be understood. At least, good enough for the low standards in here.

God, he missed the jokes told by the Brooklyn mafias.

With that, he shoved another slice of peach into his mouth. "By ah' way," he began as he chewed. "Who ahr yoo guys a'eeway?" His lips audibly smacked between each word. "I'uh Jack" He swallowed. "Jack Brennan. Entrepreneur. I'm a guy that knows how to get things," he lied. In Jack's mind, value was it's own protection. If Jack was good for something, maybe he wouldn't be given a hard time by the other inmates.


"Körbl Meier." Hearing someone else asking for introductions, Körbl answered back as he took a spoonful of food, shoved it into his mouth before retracting it to the point the spoon was clean. Eyeing it for a moment before setting it down, back straight, and nearly sending the assigned guard to Körbl panicking when he heard the one phrase that often has Körbl marked that prisoner down for a fight or brawl depending on the response.

"Are you strong?"

Körbl Meier

9991

In a small tight prison, an odd spectacle can be seen for those unfamiliar with the asylum if they happened to look at a particular cell.

9992

One of the inmates was upside down, back and legs straight like a pole as two heavy ball and chain cuffed at the ankles dangled freely. Topping it off, he was putting all of his weight onto his two thumbs. A solid chunk of metallic cuffs bound both of his arms together. Yet this didn't stopped the inmates from slowly but surely, lowering himself until his head touched the floor.

9992

Körbl let out a slow, drawn-out breathe, muscle tense as he pushed himself upwards again. Sweat poured downwards in rivulets as he slowly ascended himself.

9993

Once again, he went down, repeating this cycle. Heedless of the stares and whispers of the guards outside of his cell.

There he is again.

Shouldn't we stop him?

He'll do it regardless, and if we go in, it'll make things worse. Let him, the eggheads says he can't get any stronger anyways.

But aren't those balls 200kg total?

Each. Just keep your eyes peeled and mouth shut.

Hearing that he won't get stronger galled him, yet that thought also drove him even further. Purposefully slowing himself even more, taking a whole minute this time for his head to touch the ground. As if like he was like a glacier, slowly inching and travelling downwards. Further straining himself.

9994

But it was necessary, he wanted the strength. He HAD to be stronger.

So once again, Körbl repeated his exercise, right until he finally finished at 10000. The moment he did, Körbl went into his most familiar stance. Legs bowed, low and deep, both arms together, curled around an imaginary sword no longer in his hand, and...stood still.

So still, that aside from his rising chest, he would've appeared to be a statue. Glaring and looking forwards at nothing.

Yet Körbl would easily see or notice the other inmates trying to get his attention. Giving a brief glance towards them but not moving his head at all.
Just wondering but when do we start?
