Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

<Snipped quote by Jedly>

No promises that anyone will listen to them or that Eve won't be injured by R-Type fire but I have no problem with it.

<Snipped quote by Ryonara>

And having a distance attack that is the equivalent of someone ramming into you with a huge metal shield which is also unblockable doesn't seem overpower to you?

@Prince of Seraphs

Who said it was unblockable? At worse it's invisible. And even then it's not as strong as you think: it might be surprising at first, but Ebon can't make a telekinetic blast. If he can't control the object immediately it slips out of his grasp. Think of it like someone who tries to grabs you but fails; that's what it feels like when he tries to his telekinesis on someone who can still fight back.

I was under the impression that he altered his orientation around the Kingdom so that he was not as close to the cliff face as before like this:

First:
l(E)(K)

Second:
l (E)
l (K)

But besides that she's fired shells to liquefy the cliff on either side of the Kingdom and the area of effect of dust going off like that straight into the ground would be about a meter in either direction, so the section that's collapsing is about three meters across and goes from a foot in front of the Kingdom (give or take) to the edge. Not all of it liquefied but enough did that it's pushing the still solid rock off the cliff since it is effectively no longer connected to anything.

@Prince of Seraphs

I thought it was more like this.

1(E)
1(K)
1(S)

And then it went like this.

1 (E)
1 (K)
1
1
1(S)

I mean I mentioned that because he'll likely just move further away from the cliff and avoid falling, since he's not long right next to it. Unless that dust shot is also suppose to limit Ebon's mobility as well.

@Ryonara

Out of curiosity, what weight would Ebon be able to telekinetically life up to? Three times his normal lifting weight, five, ten?

@Write

Three times his own ability. And considering that he can heft The Kingdom fairly decently without the help of his Semblance, pretty strong. He won't be able to fling around ursas, but he could probably toss a beowulf off of him. If he tries to do it on people with Aura though, they'd just feel a blunt force hit against them, like he just tried to tackle them with The Kingdom.

Also Seraph before I make my next post, remember that Ebon made a point to walk away from the cliff after he moved his shield between himself and Sapphire. Unless she intends to take out an even larger chunk of the cliff to take Ebon down.

You mean the team that beat Pyrrha's team?

@Silvan Haven

Ruby beat Pyrrha's team. Weiss was the first down and Yang was next.

<Snipped quote by Ryonara>

Yeah but they don't come to Beacon already capable of going toe to toe with fully fledged hunters. Being honest I think at his current power level Sarina and the other seniors would have difficulty in a fight with him, which makes him just a little too far over the top.

@Prince of Seraphs

Maybe if they didn't fight creatively. Ebon still lost to Gren because he tried to engage him in melee and my fight with Shadow, which we never really finished, wasn't looking great in his favor either. Ebon tends to lose because he's not fighting smart and letting his R-Types soften up his enemies like he should.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Well of course. If full plate was heavy and cumbersome, people wouldn't be wearing it to fight. Mobility is still important weather your buck nude or covered in steel. The issue with full plate is that it's a bitch to get in and out of by yourself though.

<Snipped quote by Ryonara>

Considering that he would be a new student it's kind of expected that he starts with somewhat less power than a second year.

@Silvan Haven

I'm comparing his power more along the lines of what students like say, Weiss or Yang can do. Beacon isn't a school where you learn to be a hunter: Everyone is suppose to already be skilled in fighting and their semblance. We shouldn't all start off like Jaune who barely knows what a Semblance is.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Ebon's good at what he does. Wouldn't want him to enter Beacon barely able to pull off his winning shtick.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Ready for a fight Ebon wasn't surprised when Sapphire tried to save face by knocking him off the cliff. However she was going to need to do more then kick his legs if she wanted him to fall. All he needed to do was shift The Kingdom between himself and Sapphire, which was all the time his R-Types needed to lock onto her and started firing. With the Kingdom between himself and Sapphire, Ebon calmly walked away from the cliff. He suspected that Sapphire would try to get past his shield, maybe even sneak up behind him, so while behind his shield Ebon grabbed one of his R-Types and began to charge it's laser. As soon as he would see Sapphire, either in next or behind him, Ebon was going to fire a fully charged laser right in her face.

"I mean, I'm not surprised how you feel about your teammates. I heard one of them did something really stupid recently, I'm surprised you haven't asked daddy to buy you a new pet."

@Ryonara How big is the Kingdom if it's capable of holding hundreds of R-Types. Even if they're only the size of hands guns a container/repair shop that could house hundreds of them would be monstrous and potentially unliftable.

@Prince of Seraphs

They're collapsible, and Ebon needs his telekinesis to use his weapons for a reason. The Kingdom, much like his emblem, is a miniature fortress. It's suppose to be big, heavy, and hard to move. Otherwise Ebon wouldn't do a good job at tanking. He might not be as big and beefy as say, Gren, but Ebon isn't a scrawny guy either. Besides everyone looks comparatively weaker next to an ork.

As for how big the Tower is exactly it is large enough that Ebon could stand up behind it and it'll still cover him from head to toe and a little over. If Ebon ever got a nickname it would be "The Wall".
