<Snipped quote by Deadnaut>

Going through your character sheet, I noticed that your armor lists physical resistance and has implied fire resistance, but no sign of resistance against white magic.

2 questions.

1. You say the armor is multiton. How many tons is it? And does the enchantment only make it feel lighter to the wearer or does the armor become lighter? Does the wearer control it?
2. If the armor just feels light, how did the bridge in scene one not collapse?


1. It would be approximately 1.5 tons of rock, though obviously this owes more to its density than bulk. While it is bulky, possibly imagine the armor of Havel the Rock for approximate bulk, most of its weight is based on the large amount of rock contained within a small space, hence why it is so resistant. The enchantment works in a way approximately similar to how most people imagine powered armor. While it is indeed incredibly heavy, it somewhat carries its own bulk, and so doesn't exert the pressure on the ground, with most instead falling on either the plates or being magically(literally) alleviated. The wearer does have some control, but attempting to be too finicky with the enchantment could lead to accidentally decreasing the bulk too far and throwing Argus off his game, or increasing it enough to the point where it slows him down, or even kills him.

2. See sentence 3

@Deadnaut This does open the possibility for us to launch your character while his armor is light, then make your armor weigh more mid air and crash into the ground with a mighty explosion. We could make your character into a projectile. This is of course if upon transferring weight it conserves velocity, not total applied force.

The other possibility is that if the armor acts on total applied force rather than on previous velocity, your character can take a step while the armor is heavy and once sprinting make the armor lighter, turning the mass into velocity and literally flying into your opponents at mach 3. Your guy should be flying, not walking.

I think that your armor is the most powerful weapon any of us have.

I'm looking too much into this, aren't I?

EDIT: I did the math and realized your character would have to raise mass to a ridiculous amount in scenario 2 in order for it to be an effective method. Blast.

EDIT 2: We could instead launch you OVER the enemy in scenario 2, increasing your mass so much that your velocity drops to zero, and letting gravity turn your new heavier mass into an asteroid capable of wiping out all life on the planet. Back to overpowered again.

EDIT 3: Why am I doing math of my own free will at 1:15 in the morning?

@RabidAnubis Yep, tends to be a habit. Sharing isn't a strength of hers - cookies, secrets, toothpaste, undead, you know, little things like that that ;)

Thanks for the post @McHaggis! I will concede though that we mages are probably the best when it comes to killing en masse, but I'll try to throw a good boss fight in there so it's not just light and fire and Arcanery (not sure what to call the archer's magic) slaughtering everything.

EDIT: I'm closing the RP. Probably will restart next year or something, maybe during a break where college won't kill people.

@Hunter of Dreams Yeah. Just that it's hard to do a run with 3. Additionally, I'm going to plan the story out more next time. It's just that I understand midterms kill people and a solid post in an advanced forum can take at least an hour.
