The door explodes, as Titan walks in on the zombie cooking meat. He looked around, and grabbed the refrigerator, smashing it through the wall. It appeared the wolf girl wasn't here. Maybe in the other houses. Thinking this, Titan decided he'd check the entire neighborhood systematically. He punched the wall, sending it crashing down, as he stepped through, into the house of a certain Wolf Girl.
Ginger, what are your opinions on the matter?
The breakfast games?
This could get quite amusing. It'd be like a game. Countries would select their most charismatic politician, and he'd go try and plead for the survival of his country.
Actually, it'll be more like this:

Politician: Please don't have our country wiped out!
Elysia: Only if you make me breakfast right now.
Politician: Yes oh so merciful master!

It's so nice when everybody on the planet knows you could sic Kami on them.

(Kami's power more or less have the same potential of OPness considering Kami could easily just draw upon the electricity of the area and electrify the entire place. Same goes for drawing upon the electricity from the atmosphere.When the locusts feed on the energy of the plant, it isn't used to empower them. It's simply spat back out as the corrupted energy that would be harmful to Kami. It doesn't mean it would affect him that instant, only if he absorbed it. I never said they could not be killed by physical attacks, I merely said they were hard to kill. Them destroying the universe also seems to be a bit of a stretch considering they are at most a large area "attack", like you mentioned and I admit they are. On this note though, I do believe that I mentioned there were some parts of the plant where the energy was left uncorrupted. It's fair for you so that Kami won't be left completely vulnerable, but also fair for me and basically everyone else around for the same reason.At this point from all that you've mentioned about the extent of Kami's current power and his power once it grows, he too does seem to be a character that can have freeform power. He seems on the verge of controlling and manipulating basically everything related to electricity/electrons.If you're talking about my character running the risk of being OP because of freeform abilities, powerful attacks that cover large areas, and being weak to virtually nothing, I honestly do feel that Kami runs with the same risk as well, and a large part of why all of what I'm doing seems so powerful is because I'm evening out the playing field between my character and yours, as well as for everyone else's.I don't want to state as fact that you'd do all these things, but the fact that you could is enough reason for me to do the same.)


((Kami's attack power is limited by his control. Whereas he can absorb large amounts of power, if he absorbs too much, he can no longer control it, meaning it could start doing all kinds of freaky crap. Now, the difference between Kami's power and your power is that Kami has one ability. Electricity. However, Dark Magic, theoretically, can do anything, from telekinesis to teleportation to transmutation, warding, mind-control, telepathy, sumonning, planar travel, astral projection, elemental control, spirit binding, energy deterioration, animating dead bodies, mutation of the form, and many, many other abilities. Kami only has some of these, and is limited in their use. They are all extensions of electricity control, and thus essential to the character.
Your Wormwood attack cannot really be blocked. I used a nuke on it. I locked them in a nuke, and blew them up. And they survived that. If you need more than a nuke to blow something up, then you KNOW it's overpowered. Also, it'll kill Kami, as he IS electricity. Thus, it's an unstoppable lethal attack. Which I find overpowered.
Kami's control is gradually increasing, making him gradually more dangerous. However, he still can't summon infinite amounts of electricity from the atmosphere. If there really was al that much electricity in the atmosphere, we'd have thunderstorms permanently. He mostly has to draw electricity from human-made sources, like power lines and nuclear power plants.
Overall, while Kami is powerful, he does not break any of the points of judgement I use (feel free to challenge these). However, I will admit to Wormwood not being an attack of an overly powerful magnitude. In this aspect, I will yield to you, and admit I was wrong.))
((Nope. Doesn't dsapear))
No. Dresden had been prepared to lay here, dead, in order to fool these humans. He would have let them have their little victory. It wasn't about them anymore. It was about Matt. He wanted to see more of the human before he sired him,Quicker than the human eye could follow, he grabbed Matt's arm, breaking it in two, before retrieving his sword. He made sure not to shatter the bone. The wound would heal. He smiled, as he stood, turning towards the small group of human survivors.
" 'And no arrow or blade shall slay the chosen one. And no mortal will defeat him. For he is death itself, and will not reap his own life.' Behold, humans. Your death has come." Laughing, Dresdenwalked over to Rayden, brandishing the Crimson Blade, as he grabbed Rayden, holding him up by his neck. He could kill him now, simply by crushing the neck. It would sever the head. He lifted the vampire to his eyes, grinning toothily. "Well then, traitor. What say you, when you're faced by a living prophecy? I am the Chosen One, written in the Vampire Bible, that will enact the will of God upon the world."
I am so evil. Apparently, none of you have realized how much Dresden is prepared to do in order to survive. There's a reason he's this old.

Also, hi Liggia. The crazy stuffses are doingses fines. Becauses ses addses to everythingses.
((Kami is a powerful character, however, he has weaknesses. His powers require an energy source, he has a massive ego, his lightning doesn't affect things that conduct well, and insulators block his attack. His powers can be blocked. I have three rules of OP that determine whether something is too overpowered.
1) can it be avoiced? If it cannot, it is quite probably overpowered, unless it's really weak. Your power has this problem. Neither physical attacks nor energy attacks affect the locusts, instead making them stronger, meaning that literally nothing can be done to stop it. The only thing I can think of is someone else with Dark Magic trying to undo the spell, or maybe anti-magic. However, that's rare.
2) is it too large? An attack that wipes out countries is probably too powerful. Your attack violates this because it has the potential to wipe out the entire universe. As it grows with energy, it can feed off of the energy of everything. Pretty much everything is energy. Thus, unless stopped, it could easily engulfe the universe.
3) does it have too massive an effect on the character? An attack that is instantly lethal, or mind-control, should be used with caution. Attacks that have too large of an effect, are usually overpowered. Your attack violates this because it is irreversibly lethal to my character, first draining and then killing him.

Sometimes, these rules can be waived, if there is an excuse. For example, if your sole power was to destroy/absorb/corrupt electricity, then I'd be fine with it, as that is specifically your power. However, you have freeform magic. This means you can do pretty much anything you want, create any attack you want. Thus, you're incredibly adaptable, and have no real weaknesses.
For all the reasons above, I believe the Wormwood attack is overpowered. However, as the GM has not intervened, I cannot remove it, or prevent you from using it. I simply wished to state my case.))

Kami notices his power is depleting, and starts franticallly drawing in power. However, much of it is already corrupted, and burns him instead, as he shouts out in agony. He glares at Abbadon, as red lightning mingles with his yellow, and he tries to purify himself.
Let's just say that when he enslaves the world, he'll need someone to actually rule it, while he sits in his big ol' throne and acts high-and-mighty.
