Superman will probably need to be nerfed. Based on what I know from Superman

Unfortunately, that seems likely. As much as I love the guy, his powers pretty comfortably sit in "plot device" territory. Though, really, it depends on the author, so anything's possible.

I was going to treat him like the Justice League animated TV series did. He was getting his butt kicked by the likes of Solomon Grundy, just because he held back THAT much.

You may have to slightly adjust personality then. In a multiverse RP, I'd imagine that there will be tons of situations where holding back wouldn't be reasonable since, for example, nothing whatsoever is around. I know of an instance were Supes took the opportunity where he wasn't on Earth and released all restraints. At least one. I'm not even much of a DC Buff, I just heard that from a friend.

There's also that fact that he's holding back because he doesn't want to kill whoever he's fighting. He's pretty adverse to death, and has only killed on very rare occasions; even then, he feels absolutely terrible about it for a long time.

I suppose. I don't know much about the details in DCU like that. All I know is that this version of Superman wouldn't ever be accepted. Not even in... One Million years. ... Bad joke alert.

Gah. I can't believe I giggled at that. I never giggle.

wait wait wait wait. Superman was a Prime? I didn't know that he held the Matrix of leadership ... or that a non-cybertronian could carry it. loloolol.

Yup. Look out Unicron. Superman's coming for you.

I do believe I will stick around. I need an RP like this: where I don't have to write twelve paragraphs and develop complex story arcs. Just some laid back, multiverse fun. Also, View: totes hilar.

You were saying?

If push comes to shove, I'll give Ridge the full extent of his actual powers back just to kick Superman's butt and demonstrate just how ridiculously powerful he is to you all. I may compile a list of all of his original powers to just to show you all. EDIT: First paragraph's a joke. I'd probably get booted from the RP.

Hmm... Ridge.... Looks like Ridgedog and what I'd expect Ridgedog's face to look like when mad with power.... Nah, couldn't be the same.

@ View: @ Six: The list of his powers would be interesting, mostly because you said he could stomp Supes, but you know.

Hush. I went through a Yogscast phase and made several characters with names and models borrowed from Yogscast & fan art. Lewis was a president of a multiversal "nation" of sorts. Also, FacePunch, I'll work on a powers list then.

Heh, Nono vs Supes for a sparring match? I don't see what can go wrong

Heh, Nono vs Supes for a sparring match? I don't see what can go wrong

That sounds entirely sane, and not at all dangerous for anyone nearby.

Don't let Nono kick.

Hey, Nono can just warp them out to the void between galaxies. No collateral damage whatsoever unless she makes a giant black hole. Which she won't because that's not a length she'd go to in a sparring match.

Don't let Nono kick.

Good advice

As long as she doesn't use feathers or pepper for weapons..

Ridge's Powers: Superhuman Strength: He was close to matching the strength of a man who threw another man through a planet and onto another planet. Superhuman Speed: Appears to be a blur when he moves Superhuman Reflexes: Reaction time of approximately 1-3 milliseconds. Energy Constructs: Can create energy constructs of near-unlimited size and complexity. Hard enough to resist several blows of someone equal to his own strength. Pseudo-Reality Bending: He uses "realistic illusions" to create nearly anything he wants, and the illusions act as real matter and/or energy. Mental Barrage: He can enter someone's mind under certain circumstances and become a god inside their head, capable of doing literally anything as long as the setting remains the victim's imagination. Convert energy to matter: Pretty self explanatory. Energy Form: Can turn into the energy used in his own Energy Constructs, and manipulate his body to the same limits. Unstable Constructs: Can turn his white Construct energy into red energy that explodes upon high-velocity contact or contact with organic matter. Soul Tear: Can rip the soul essence straight from a person as long as a black ball of energy makes contact with the target. Elemental manipulation: He can't summon elements, but in the presence of them he is able to control them. Like the Avatar if he couldn't summon any fire, for example. Fob Watch: His Fob Watch is capable of tracking movement, providing an energy source (it's an unrealistically large battery), looking into the very near future (up to about a minute or two, and it only does so on spontaneous occasions), creating an EMP, and providing other utilities. Flight: He can fly and hover with no effort whatsoever. Multidimensional Travel: He can open portals to other universes using only his power. Teleportation: Nearly unrestricted teleportation. His evil other personality, Maelstrom, has all these powers magnified, and even some more individual powers of themselves. Maelstrom has even shown signs of omniscience on very, very brief and rare occasions. And I may have forgotten a few, but no biggie. He is also able to be in many places at once. As you can see, if you look at his CS here, he is missing almost all of these powers. But he has them in his RP of origin.

Okay, um... @Prostagma: You might have missed this, so I'll say it here: He's accepted. After your explanation of his power he seems perfectly fine. @FacePunch: I'm a little bit wary, but the vulnerability to magic and how widespread magic is here makes me much more optimistic than I might otherwise be.

If you'd like, Superman could have his powers hindered by a specialized device, which someone else suggested. Something like a constant barrage of low-end red sun energy, or something.

...Whoa.

Power like that is pretty common where he's from. He holds back a lot (like Supes does, haha). I'd say he's among the top 10 strongest regulars there.

Good to know. Now, are there any Shadow Eternity groups I can join up with, or are they all busy at the moment?

That was me.

I said this earlier, but it was probably missed. Yggdrasil (and most of the multiversal locations) aren't necessarily in the vicinity of a Yellow Sun. Supes could easily just be running on residual power, knocking him down a few pegs.
