Going over some CS's now. I think we may have a full roster once I accept another one or two players.

@Mr_pink Of the two characters I like the Amazon more.

Hm, Idk, I might finish writing this one and look at the two and decide which one I like more, provided the new one gets accepted. I'm not entirely certain I'd to justice to the amazon I had written, and I'm not crazy about the appearance I used either to be honest. We'll see I suppose.

Just finished up Caitlyn's Bio/ Sample post, its longer than I usually write, largely because I was having a dialog between myself. Same quality though obviously.

On a separate note: A lot of what I'm seeing powers wise is every other hero having heightened physical attributes plus a few additional powers. From here on out I don't wanna see anymore of that. Simplify. Less is more. Challenge yourself. I also thought I saw somebody who transformed into a Bear but it's gone or been replaced. With Met's person changing into a Chinese demon dog or whatever any werebears/wolves/etc would be too redundant.

~KL~


@Weird Tales @riurik @rocketrobie2 Rat King, Beast Boy, and Talon are a lot of what I was talking about up top. While Rat King and Talon aren't weres they both have physical characteristics of rats and owls respectively. And BB is the ultimate were-anything LOL.

@Ghost Queen Bard is accepted!

@ColouredCyan Come up with a better codename and trim a few of the powers down and I can accept this. Reminds me of something of a mix between Blue Beetle and Skitter. My thoughts on the powers...

Enhanced Strength
Envenomed Claws, cumulative paralytic
A projectile gunk shot, hazardous to health long term
Hook Shot Capabilities <<< Can you just explain this one?
Shell Armour Plating
Smokescreen <<< Batman's providing utility belts. Gotta give him this one LOL
Additional Chemical Sensors
Hazmat-lite, Bug Detoxes and filters Caitlyn's blood, making her resistant to chemical and biological warfare.
Defib-lite, Bug's Heart continues to pump blood around Caitlyn's body, even if Caitlyn's heart isn't.
Bug is semi-sentient and communicates Caitlyn neurally, feeding her powerful messages of hunger and self preservation.

@Mr_pink I still like the Amazon more than the new chick. I'm not too keen on anybody with technopathy. Electricity manipulation would be fine, and electro-magnetism would sound better with her power set than telekinesis. But I still liked the Amazon and the whole way she comes back with better gear and a fresh perspective.

There are still a couple other WIP's I hoped to see finished, but we may go ahead and start with the team we've got.

To be honest, I can't stand the appearance I chose for Ves and cannot find a better appearance for the life of me. I also think I'd probably do this character more justice than the other. That being said, I'm still contemplating which one to choose. What's your problem with technopathy?

@The Kid Lantern, I can agree to all of that, never was particularly happy with the code name. I was kind of fond of the smokescreen, thought it fit with Caitlyn's stealth/thievery and to reinforce how alien Bug is, but if you think it should go, it can go. The hook shot is a barbed chameleon tongue used for pulling light objects to Caitlyn, it can't support her weight.

I'm dreadful with names, how about Thorn? I'll keep thinking about it.

no idea, I'm basing him off of Atom and a bit of Aquaman. Not to mention all of the superhero rps I've been in never seem to have shrinking heroes.

I can live with shrinking down to five inches, and controlling rats.... like a rat version of Ant-Man. But taking on the appearance of a humanoid rat with heightened attributes... that's where it stars sounding like a more redundant power set. I'll give ya claws and teeth, but whiskers, a tail, etc would be a deal breaker. Also, as others have pointed out, 'Rat King' is a villain in both TMNT and the Nutcracker. I googled some words, Rattus being one of the better sounding words for rat. Should use something like that for a name instead. Also, I found it interesting rats possess metacognition based on a study in 2007. What is metacognition? A mental ability previously only documented in humans and some primates, it is "cognition about cognition", or "knowing about knowing". It comes from the root word "meta", meaning beyond. It can take many forms; it includes knowledge about when and how to use particular strategies for learning or for problem solving. This is what I can only assume gives rats the upper hand in tight spaces, sewers, etc. and I believe it would be a nice addition power wise that isn't the same old same old. Just call it 'Amplified Metacognition'.
