I reckon i'll hold off posting till tomorrow. Nothing major has happened yet that I need to respond to - The Circus will be starting to prepare in two IC post's time, my healer will never speak first with Replicant there, the fight hasn't moved on and I don't feel like stealing Ifrit's blood-borne WMD yet.

As such, the only thing I'd really be doing is speaking to Automaton.

Plus I might have spent more tiime that I realised filling out a CS for another roleplay but that is entirely besides the point, I assure you =P

Even if nothing more happens, I'll still post tomorrow, just wanna give it another day in the hope someone at least takes a potshot at someone else to give me a reason to break out some more epic =P

Not to nitpick, but there's 1 thing. With both other players gone, Anonymous is by his lonesome now.

I wasn't sure on that, so I left it open. After Pro replies I'll likely just send her to the lab area break room to wait for Alice to finish up.

@Sickle-cell You gotta get your co-gms to do part of the work with you characters or something. You have been doimg amazing, I love how the story is shaping up, but you have a character almost for every PC there is, and almost all of them are concistently interacting directly with you. This is awesome, because it lets you really guide the story, but you are also putting a lot of work and pressure on yourself.


I never saw this for some reason.

Sickle knows I'll do anything to help out, but at the moment I'm more of an advisor and OOC helper than anything.

@ProProThat is a good point. I had completely forgotten all about that. I shall take over the puppeteering of both in my next IC posts tomorrow night. We might finally be able to see what Anon actually does when he's not creeping on randoms =P

@Sickle-cell Hey now, it's not like he has a choice in the matter! He has to creep on randos. But on the plus side, the amount of identities he could steal and extortion he can commit is mind boggling! :D

@ProProTrue.

But still creepy =P

I have to go get ready for work, so I'll be on throughout tomorrow. Will be posting by this time tomorrow, though, and i'll try remember to cover all bases when I do. I still can't believe how quickly the IC has shot up =P

It's not- *sigh* whatever, it was supposed to be a subtle checknav's gun later on, but you had to draw attention to it and now everyone thinks I want you to wipe out the eastern seaboard. Ah well.

edit: After reading the IC thread I have an inescapable urge to cough, loudly, and be heard.

Since all this time is passing for everyone I am going to make another individual post here soon, please feel free to ignore it as it will primarily be there for personal development purposes and will not in any way hide anything subtle that may be important to the plot later.

Okay, um. I don't want to hold the situation back just because I wanted to wait to see if the others wanted to do something. But I also want to give a bit of a warning. So. I'll post when this post becomes a day old. Yeah.

Poohead is pulling out due to NaNoWriMo - entirely understandable. I'll narrate Iron Fist leaving the battle in my IC post later today.

@knifeman, have you put any thought into whether Mandy and Holly are joining Vegas when she runs?

You're forgetting that we're fans of Worm. If we can make it through that behemoth, we can make it through any post you write.

Hey. I'm new to Forum RP's, and I'm having difficulty with some terms such as Worm and Cape Name.

I have prior experience with RP'ing outside forums though, so I'm aware of basic etiquette like how to avoid being too OP, and god modding.

Anyway, here's what I have so far.

I'm very willing to talk about her ability-- considering its nature.

In the Wormverse, Capes are people who have gained powers. Most of them go by a 'super-hero/-villain' name, which is their cape name.

Worm is the online serial this RP is based off of, which can be read here.

I'll look over your sheet and address anything else as I notice it in a second post.

In the light of that one dropping out, I decided to post anyways. Draco can react to her action if he wants to.

Tell me if Knight's interrupted at any point during that post. If she is, then the post will likely not be accomplished in its entirety. Also tell me if I make her do something she cannot. Otherwise, yeah, that's it. Also, what is this communicator she has? ... Oh, well.

So this RP is based on an online serial book called "Worm", worm is about a world in which, to out it simply, there are such things as superheroes and villains. For a quick catch up google Worm and read the synopsis on Wildbow's website. (the author of the original work) The term "cape" essentially means somebody with powers, referring to the trope that superheroes and villains stereotypically wear capes.

It isn't up to me to critique your character, although I will point out that in the Worm universe every person gains their power during an event called a "trigger event," Something traumatic and usually that persons worst day of their life. Typically the type of trauma corresponds with sort of power, so an emotionally traumatic event is more likely to result in a thinker power or something mental, being tortured or abused is more likely to result in something physical. The nature of powers and trigger events is extremely diverse though, and certain characteriatics may make it more likely to trigger, such as having cape parents although it still isn't guaranteed.

Alright, a few things to note:
I'm not great at the labels for powers beeping Thinker, Tinker, and a few others, but I'm fairly sure there's no Stranger application to portals. Just Mover. Beyond that I actually really like the concept, but personally feel it could use some working.

Secondly, and this is the big one. It's complicated for me to personally explain, given you have zero prior knowledge of Worm.
But, basically, gods don't exist. This a an alternate Earth, called Earth Bet, in which powers are granted through Trigger Events. Shards connect to a host during such times, and such events change how a certain shard would act. This the exact same trigger can yield different powers to different people based on the differences going on in their emotional and mental state.

The best suggestion I have for that is looking at some of the other CSs, particularly anything by ProPro.

Please feel free to ask questions about all this, we'll do our best to get make sure you have a firm understanding of things to be able to move forward with this.

EDIT:
here's the Wiki page, which a quick skim on my end appears to cover the basics without any noticeable errors:
