@pkken
besides being just able to be offset easily not many draw backs to a powerful quirk, does he have any form of limit to the amount of times he can manipulate the wind before some kind of drawback starts to form?

Also sorry for not speaking of anything until this point, you should probably poke your head into the Discord chat some time, be probably easier to bounce ideas and see things that yourself may of noticed and so on.

Hi there, I know that the RP is technically full. So I'll just be throwing out my character application and hope that a slot opens up in the near future. I'm going with a female character with a slime quirk.

@Alupi

it is an interesting ability, her not being unaffected is a decent draw back though she is able to get free from it. Besides a limit of some kind not sure what else could say. after @NightmareInd and @Kreutzer gets a look at it then the final verdict will be passed (so probably in the morning/few hours)

@olcharlieboi Aight. Copy, chief.

I guess I'll just look over all the existing characters sheets in the tab and get a good idea of limits and weaknesses.

It's funny though, I just looked at the Quirk idea and first thing that popped into my mind:

"Wait, Mineta and Ashido got a kid!?"

Seriously though, because her Quirk is so similar to that of them, especially Ashido, I checked her quirk for any drawbacks, and saw she didn't have any. However, since it's a combination of both, maybe something like her mobility going down when she uses it too much (since she kinda glues herself inside out as well) or dehydration could be a thing (although dehydration would be a severe case if it would be on its own).

Oh, okay. Just a bit confused. Is the quirk I chose to go with that imbalanced that it needs a hard restriction? Not sure how quirks are assessed, but looking through the other characters, not all seem to have hard weaknesses or limiters.

I just thought a glue-based quirk that focuses on utility more that offense or firepower would be fun. Didn't expect it to get some sort of hard cap though. I guess my character doesn't make the cut. Or at least her quirk doesn't.

More like it's suppose to keep with the theme other characters, canon and OC, have about their quriks having some drawback. Even someone like Mineta who's quirk makes sticky balls (Fairly harmless on their own) have the drawback in that he can't constantly use them. Basically just a limit to how often one can use their quirks and such. Of course there are those without any notable drawback, mostly because their quirks aren't really that powerful. Asahi's quirks are all passive and don't really make him stronger than your average human. Nothing flashy, nothing impressive on his own.

I dunno about her quirk not making the cut, I think it's plenty interesting as it is. GM's just want you to make it a bit more restricting so you aren't say, immobilizing your opponents to the floor where they can't avoid attacks with impunity.

I get that they want some sort of restriction. What bothers me is that some characters seem to be exempted from this. A few just mention that overuse of their quirks strain them in one way or another, but that's already something common to most quirks.

I was going for a character that excelled in crowd control; I guess that needs to get nerfed. I'll probably just do something else.

Muda, I dunno, I like crowd control characters. Being a regular old beat stick type of character can be fun at times, but I do enjoy those who utilize their abilities less for directly defeating their opponents with sheer force, but through tactical use of their skills and powers. Those who rely on CC and have generally non-offensive quirks are the best for that since they got to think smart.

I'm no GM, but I like your character. Personally I don't even know why or what sort of a bigger drawback the GM's would want; the fact that she isn't safe from her own powers seems like a pretty big deal to me. It just shows she can't be reckless with it or else she'll harm herself with it too, even if she can secret a fluid to break down the goop she makes.

@Alupi@Lucius Cypher

My biggest concern is that her Quirk can render most people useless from the start. She's like Mineta not very offensive and more of an immobilising role, but she can use it much more and better than Mineta and with extra properties as well. You have a point she is more of a crowd control, but she should still have a limit somehow. Probably like Momo (from Canon) who creates stuff out of her fat cells, she could have them made out of water, meaning less water means less glue.

@Alupi Sorry, i've been fairly busy until now today

As @Lucius Cypher mentions the problem isn't the scope of the ability it's more the scope of it compared to the drawbacks it faces. An example is that seeing as it's produced instead of her other bodily fluids, it could dehydrate her when she does it. Even something that simple would get a thumbs up from me, because otherwise its a very cool and sweeping ability that doesn't seem to have any direct drawback on your character.

It has potential to be pretty devastating (and personally it'd team up great with my character Tay imo) so don't give up on it, I'd just add something minor and manageable to give it a more quirk-esque feel, if you get what I mean?

One character with a creation quirk in canon uses her fat cells to create things, so it wouldn't be too out there to think hydration directly correlates to it.

@Lucius Cypher I have considered her vulnerability to her own attacks however it is clearly stated she can produce a substance that nullifies it, sort of cancelling it out as being a drawback.

The bottom line is quirks in this rp tend to have either a drawback in terms of a cap on how much you can use it for whatever reason or a cap on how strong it can be. Characters like mine, Marius, have almost like time limits where he gets into a hangover like state and can't focus, and other characters have limits on Range/strength etc.

HOWEVER

@Alupi From as soon as I started checking sheets from what you said you do have a point. I've spoken with @NightmareInd and I'm confident @olcharlieboi won't object to me putting out an announcement that everyone should clearly state their quirk's drawbacks and limits in the quirk section of their character sheets. People who already don't have this done, this is a priority before they start becoming more heavily used in the RP. If your quirk is just quite mundane in the first place, that's still a drawback in itself and must be clearly stated. If you think you have this already then that's ace.

I'm genuinely sorry if it seemed like you were being called out for things others were guilty of, and we hope it doesn't discourage you from the rp. If you like, hop into the RPG discord (link in the first OOC post) and join our #bnha_rp room where we have a live chat :) we discuss our characters and quirks a lot in there, it'd be nice for more friendly faces :D

Since I'm one of those people who actually had an on first glance OP character, I just edited my character, stating the less obvious drawbacks of my Quirk as well. Even though I thought they were obvious to myself, it didn't occur to me others might not think of this.
