[OOC] Epic City: Starburst

[Bluetommy]

Yay, time to punch some rats.

[Polaris North]

Other heroes: Leaps off majestically and run towards place to save the day

Fixer: Contemplates whether or not to take this opportunity to eat everything in the Function but is dragged out by the team

Well, here goes my outfit

[ML]

whats the limit of the high islands powers: because if he can reform broken glass, can he also just reform entire buildings? is there a point to destroying buildings/causing chaos or is he just going to fix it all each time?

[Regitnui]

The High Island is careful; he doesn't repair any buildings people or animals are still within, for fear of hurting them. He's got near-complete control of the city's inanimate structures, but using a road to swat a criminal or a building to drop into its basement has major repercussions on the rest of the structures.

[ML]

okay gotcha

so could he make some inception-level geometry

[Polaris North]

@Regitnui

Do we (Emergency Repsonders) get guns? Does guns even work on these things?

[Old Amsterdam]

Heads up, if you need a doorway on the battlefield, say to have an attacker lunge through it to avoid hitting you, feel free to use them. So long as you're in Alex's line of sight, it's fine, and Alex is towards the back of the fight anyways.

[Regitnui]

@Polaris North, They're not bulletproof. At least not the rank and file of them. A gun or several guns thoughtfully provided by ECPD, will easily make a human a 1v1 match for a Swarm rat. However, the sheer numbers of the Swarm is why you need Epics and Freaks; Spectrum took out three in a matter of seconds, and she's not even particularly offense-focused as an Epic. More destructive powers could wipe the entire horde out, so feel free to go hog-wild with your powers, guys.

@Mercenary Lord, only if he's willing to cause mass upheaval (turning buildings on their sides or upside-down would be a serious strain on them). But his 'lair' for lack of a better word is about as alien in geometry as is physically possible.

Whereabouts would the Chief be heading to... As it would seem logical I tag along with him? I have literally no visual idea about the lay of the land :D And I'm sooooo bad with directions

[Regitnui]

@ihinka, The chief would likely be heading to the scene to coordinate the forming and maintenance of a perimeter.

[ihinka]

@Regitnui Than that's where I'll be heading as well :)

[TheHangedMan]

Is this still open for recruitment~?

[Old Amsterdam]

I suppose I should also note that Alex will swap attacking creatures with ones facing different directions when they're about to hit someone, like she did with herself. So feel free to use that as well.

[Old Amsterdam]

@TheHangedMan
The more the merrier, friend.

[Regitnui]

@TheHangedMan, Welcome in. I'm not going to say no to new characters for a little while yet.

Oh, and like you can rely on Alex/Traveler's gates and swopping, consider Spectrum's forcefield a safe arrival/regrouping position.

[Lord Orgasmo]

Not to worry I'll use my healer powers to feel useful and judge you silently as you make various mistakes, thus creating more work for me.

[RoflsMazoy]

Right, so, finally finished exams but I'm getting sick. I'll have a post up soon but I gotta rest a little bit.

[Old Amsterdam]

@RoflsMazoy
No worries, mate. Get better, then worry about this. ^^

[ihinka]

Hm... In brainstorming my next post a question emerged... Would the swarm rats be using any kind of projectile weapons?
