Hmm? Just let me finish my character off and then we can start okay? But I don't want to leave anyone behind.

@SilverWolfAngel Er...not to be nitpicky, but an arctic wolf can only go a maximum of a a few weeks to a single month without eating anything before it risks starvation, and that's at peak condition. They generally avoid starvation due to the fact that they are extremely adaptable and have a large variety of prey to choose from, as well as the fact that they eat every part of an animal they get hold of, whether it's freshly killed or simply an abandoned carcass. The five month thing is a misnomer, and it's stated that they just live in complete darkness for four or five months of the year, not that they go that long without food.

@MonsieurShade I'll trust you on that. I was looking this stuff up at one in the morning and so most of it just went straight over my head. I'll change it, thanks. :)

Truth be told, I had to do a bit of research before I mentioned the eating thing to ensure I wasn't just going to be talking out of my ass when I brought up my point. I already knew that creatures that lived in arctic biomes survived on very little food and water much like creatures in desert biomes, but I wanted to ensure I had an accurate time frame for a wolf's metabolic rate. Thus far I think only snakes, deep sea fish, and tardigrades can last for such extended periods of time without a meal.

@SilverWolfAngel
S'all good, researching so late can take a toll on a person's mind. On the plus side, while the arctic wolf DNA doesn't imbue such a startling metabolic rate, it definitely offers you a TON of endurance. The average arctic wolf can actually lope nonstop for twenty four hours despite being hindered by snow and subzero conditions. If we were to take that into account for Fade's attributes, she could theoretically do the same thing when it comes to flight provided she did it at a steady pace and could literally just chase her targets to exhaustion or death. I dunno about you, but I find pursuit predation to be one of the more terrifying hunting methods.

How is the clairvoyance going to play into the rp? How strong are the mutations going to be in the beginning stage of the rp? They seem a bit much since we're just starting out.

Yeah I know the feeling. Half the time I say something they don't believe me and I'm like 'I just googled it, seriously. It's right there.' And more often than not I click it for them lol.

Anywho. Since you seem good at this care to take a look at my character? I would rather have someone look at it ebfore we start just to make sure I'm not going further than I should.

Looks a bit Angel-ish in regards to the clairvoyance thing, however it can be done tastefully if it's not something Luna has absolute control over. The combination of attributes from both of the spliced species has been tastefully done, especially in regards to the clouded leopard and it appears as though you've done a fair bit of research on them to know their physiology (on a similar note, i'm noticing a large about of these Characters are spliced with felines, I sense some potential overlapping here, a lot like the issue we had with the Hummingbird thing yesterday). Limb strength's just a *tiny* bit iffy for your character considering the hollow bone structure shared amongst each character, but given the increased muscle mass and the fact I assume Luna won't just be outright kicking every enemy with all of her strength for risk of breaking a bone, it doesn't seem as though it'd be of too much concern. All in all, a fairly balanced character in my book.

Clairvoyance is going to actually help us steer the rp in the direction it should. Though with it and danger sense whenever she see's or feels something she has to go toward it. She can't control her visions and they're painful, even for her.

I said it's been five years since they got out right? Or was it four? Let's make it four. So she's had four years to get good at things and she's done growing so her muscle mass it actually at the best it can get. Kicking someone that hard in the chest is the same as the average 20-ish year old male sitting on a persons chest.

Ummm. . . Which other one do I need to elaborate on?

@MonsieurShade

If she's going to be kicking anyone that hard it's going to break herself just as much and even though they heal fast it'll still hurt and take a while. So she won't be hitting anyone that hard that often. As per the clairvoyance it's the same as I said to Ly. She doesn't have any control over it at all. She see's and writes things she doesn't understand well enough on her own and she gets the urge to go to it, once again. Uncontrollable.

If the feline thing becomes a problem, I could see about finding something different.

Like Shade said, there are quite a bit of feline characters. I have something else I can exchange for the OCelot DNA. I can do a species of fox, we don't have any of those.

I wouldn't call it a "problem" per say, it's just a matter of avoiding everyone with feline DNA trying to be a stealth type (not saying it will happen, but it could), which could be tricky. For your character stealth works perfectly since ocelots by nature are very reclusive and you've chosen a bird species that's pretty hard to keep track of, which would make her the perfect scout or hit and run type. I can see Nightmare's character being a tank-type similar to mine that would have more of an "ambush and overpower" sort of approach given that's how tigers usually hunt. Violet's and Kage's characters appear to overlap a bit in regards to tracking capability, but it might be able to work if they're different in their approaches. So long as we can avoid a nonstop fiesta of Solid Snake levels of stealth occurring with everyone I don't see it becoming that big a deal.

That's what I was referring to with the kicking. It's already possible for a human to break their own limbs if they exert too much force, which is why the body unconsciously keeps us from using every ounce of strength we have unless we're on an adrenaline high. I just wanted to make sure the risks of such detrimental actions were apparent given the fragile nature of our character's bones in comparison to the strength they have. On an unrelated note, sorry if I happen to sound like a smarmy douche in my posts, it's something that I for the life of me can't seem to stop. Helps me earn the moniker of "The Gentleman Bastard" though...

Eh not a big deal. People often say something along those lines about me as well though it's more along the liens of being too blunt :3 I ask for feedback because I like it.

@XxLyraxX

Looks fine tome regardless.
