Angel: "Um, yeah, about that. Imagine if what i did to Trent happened to you, with a semi truck. Or a tank. Or a 747. Maybe I could, I dunno, use my long range laser?"

@Athinar

Racheli: "And to the first one: what do you think those are made out of? Magnetism is wonderful at ignoring the laws of gravity. Which you gave me ammo to protect myself against your little laser show besides...cities aren't exactly made of cotton candy last I checked. Metal is actually everywhere and that means the playing field gives me a pretty damn big advantage."

Me: "Bad part, while you have advantage against metal...those metas who use magic or other means outside traditional guns or metal, sort of means you can't do much against them. A Decay magician for example would be pretty hellish-"

Racheli: "Shut the fuck up,"

Me: *chuckles*

O.O

@Fallenreaper I'd think that the laser that can IGNITE THE AIR AS IT FIRES can pierce through any of those.

@Athinar

Yes, but it would still take time. Are you telling me it will slice through several tons of metal, like say a sewer pipe, skyscraper building, shoved up concrete and basically a wall made of a desecrated block in less than a second? Cause if that is the case, then you win. Though to be honest... I can't see how it could be that hot without going right into the earth itself and slicing the planet in half really.

*walks away from the conversation to do research on laser particles and magnetism*

[Athinar]

@FallenreaperWell, I was mainly referring to the ones that I had mentioned. It would take time to cut through a city block's worth of metal.

@Athinar

Unless it's metal or can be affected by magnetism, she can't really influence the laser really. This is a point I was trying to make that even if your PC is at a higher level, the field, opponent, and much more can influence how the battle comes out.

Your Mech PC has a disadvantage with Rach only because of her metal manipulation and magnetism. Icarus does as well due to his being metal, though it's alien metal and she hasn't absorbed the knowledge from it.

Unless your mech got some sort of alloy that isn't earth base, which she can still manipulate but needs to 'absorb' knowledge putting her at risk, then it will be much harder. Long range might be an issue but the laser has to hit to actually be a threat, else it's just tearing up stuff around her until it manages to hit.

Against PCs who don't use metal like Achane, Justine (if Racheli didn't have knowledge over her sword metal), Icon, and ect, she would have difficulties because her advantage is gone. Her focus would be split between locating and manipulating mental, alongside seeking her target.

If she has no metal to manipulate or alter, her odds of winning ends up becoming rather... grim.

War-Pulse: "Whazzat? We're getting into a fight? Can I join!?!?"

You sure you want to? You're beaten by four nobodies.

War-Pulse: "Pah, I wasn't giving it my all. I'll take anyone on! It'll be fun!"

You're hopeless.

War-Pulse: "I prefer the term 'optomistic'."

Why does Warden pair with you?

@NeutralNexus

Cause he has a hard time finding someone to actually put up with his overly serious nature?

[Athinar]

@Fallenreaper What is the range of her metal manipulation? Because the laser has an effective range of a mile, enhanced by the Synergy. If Rach gets in close, she has the potential to mess him up.

@Athinar

I'm not fully sure to be honest as I don't think I put it, need to check. If I didn't then it was namely for 2 reasons:

1) Her virus, after it syncs, would start off the metal manipulations and magnetism within about 2-3 meters that steadily grows with time to a comfortable range though she can likely push past it.

2) The less she trains with it then the more... annoying it will be become, its range growing. While she might not have the mental awareness to manipulate wide ranges, the virus does and will use it if she doesn't.

@nitemare shape

Will you stop ruining our fun! We're actually acting like adults!

Additions:

Alright it's 4 meters for her metal, and 6 for her magnetism. However, these might expand due to her growth. When she's pushed to the edge of her limits then it will double in area coverage as the Virus does adapt and grow, so imagine that happening like several times. Current for now, it's pretty close range so yeah he can easily use the long range laser on her without her being able to get to him.

[NeutralNexus]

Knock Knock, boys and girls.

Oh, shoot, that reminds me! @Tearstone You said Justine's father is still in the police force? Is Umbraxis appearing in the Station going to be an issue or is he not going to be in the building? It shouldn't matter too much, but I wanted to make sure I did not cause an accidental issue with him.

[Athinar]

@NeutralNexus Wow. I'm actually sorta frightened by the frequency at which you're posting Umbraxis. Please don't end the world yet.. ;-;

[NeutralNexus]

@Athinar Don't worry too much, as long as Umbraxis is entertained, I have no designs to enact the big plan. Remember, the rest of it is still past Pluto, it has got some travel time if I want to do anything substantial. For now, it is just a very active observer. :3

[Fallenreaper]

Reminds me I need to get the CEO of Genecorporation up soon.

[NeutralNexus]

Yea you do, I can't be the only villain parading around, someone has to back me up, here!

@Facepunch and @Dedonus I know you got shit waiting in the shadows, I'm excited to see those enacted!

@NeutralNexus

Not sure she can do much, save explain some plot related things though I'm having trouble keeping the time line sorted while reading. Where is everyone at?

@Fallenreaper

All of my characters are either in the riots or post-riots.
