<Snipped quote by Weird Tales>

I completely agree, I would never use any form of mind control on another player's character without their permission. However, if you'd like some assurance, I could make it so it only works on people who don't know him for who he truly is.


The one problem i see with that is he could take control of potentially every enemy that he faces. I'm sorry but I'm going to have to say no to that power

Well.
Joe can take brief control of any guy whom he can talk into feeling strong emotions.
I can telefrag potentially any guy.
Sawbones can understand EXACTLY where to punch any guy in order to oneshot him.
Your superstrong superfast werewolf can literally LIFT any guy that weighs less than 10 tons and then crush him or throw him so far into the air he will die from hitting the ground.
Nergal quickly disintegrates any guy whose head he can touch for some time - and helping Nergal to do so is probably our team's major tactic for dealing with especially durable enemies.

Don't worry, trump cards are something many capes have - and all of them can be countered in some way. Enemies that aren't destroyed by them make for extremely interesting and complex encounters - and enemies that get oneshot by attacks of powerful and dangerous supervillains make it all look grittier and more realistic!

Define 'strong emotions'.

Because "I need to live" is a pretty strong emotion, and most people feel it during any encounter with a supervillain, I'm guessing.

Oh, i bet Joe must make it personal
Like charming a person and making them like him for his specific qualities or make them hate them for a specific thing that he did.
Correct me if i'm wrong in my assumptions though.

@Weird Tales Sorry to be a bother, but is my character accepted? I finished it a bit a page back so you might not have seen it.

@Ebil Bunny if you make the mind control power work with only a few weaker opponents at a time then I'll be fine with the superpower

Fantastic! I'm not really sure if it's been mentioned before, but is there an ETA for the IC?

His power is not direct no-save mind control per se, man. He has to actively work with a target for quite some time to establish the dominance, and even then he can only hold it until they fulfil a single command.

I was never intending the mind control ability itself as a weapon, as much as using it against innocent bystanders as a sort of miniature army.

@Eyeruption I was thinking along the lines of, for example, Joe would make himself look like someone's long lost relative, and they would get a surge of emotion seeing someone they thought had died.

Okay, here's how I was planning on using Joe's ability. Say he wanted to rob a bank or something. He'd go out onto a busy street, make himself look like a rough-n-tough tattooed dude, sucker punch a hot-headed muscled buck, they'd get mad, then they'd be under his control. He'd give the big burly guy the simple command of bursting through the door and knocking over as many pieces of furniture they could, while Joe walked past the distraction, into the back, grab a buck or two for a donut, then walks back out. Once the guy finished his task, he'd be back to normal, but also probably be in handcuffs after several bystanders called the police, and being hauled to jail.

Joe wouldn't have a group that he had full control over that he'd use over and over as his personal task force, he'd just grab someone off the streets to do one task, then they'd be back to normal. He's not exactly the strategic, look-ahead type person.

I don't really know if this explains it any better xD

Well, isn't the whole point of the RP that your being blackmailed into doing what The Presence wants you too?

as charming as Joe is, he seems to be in complete control of his life and his environment. The Presence doesn't really have anything on him. What, is it going to expose him as a shape-shifting demon? Oh no, what a terrible thing for old Joe. It's not like he's a shape-shifting demon who can literally just disappear off the face of the earth, living as someone else until he goes back to stealing.

edit:
the presence may be able to find him, but for how long are the police going to follow it's leads? surely they would get sick of getting anonymous tips that Joe has shape-shifted in an old grandma now.

Oh well, to be realistic, Presence probably has some VERY SERIOUS incentive to make us work for it, not just some threats of uncovering us to the police, since police already knows us as fucked up villains and our MO and generally hunts for us non-stop.

I think it has means of controlling us that transcend our ken. I mean, if it was only a supreme hacker and nothing more we could hide from it just by turning off all electric tools. Not an option for your char, but a great one for everyone else.

You have to keep in mind that Joe is a demon, and demons have weaknesses just as much as humans do. They're just different weaknesses.

I would like you to be honest with me. Are you just pointing out things that you think are a bit eh about my character, and think that once fixed would make a great character that would be fun to play with, or do just dislike the character from a story perspective? I'm a roleplayer with a passion for a good story, I can take an honest, "You're character's a bit boring, mind trying something different maybe?"

Nah, the character's fine, I'm just trying to get a full grasp of it. so, the former of the two.

If the mysterious Presence is capable of exploiting Joe's weaknesses, I'd then imagine that it must be much more powerful than just capable of electronic manipulation. probably gonna have some crazy supernatural powers along with it

Another thing. Do any of us know each other from previous times or are we all gathered in one place by Presence completely independently?
Anybody wants to make a shipping wall? Harpy and Blood Fang are an obvious match, they synergize with each other so much.
