[OOC] Blood Compact: Magnus's Reign

[Shikaru]

I second akje, dayum beat Dresden in a fist fight. LOL. The idea of the werepyre sounds cool, and makes sense for Dresden.

[Wraithblade6]

I like it. Will post in ... about 4 hours.
need to do things... Things that involve getting my car fixed. :/

[Shikaru]

I have to admit, that post was epic lol. Surely Magnus would see the huge explosion, and possibly catch a glimpse of what looked to be a person free falling from Terebitha. Yep...Ok. My turn. Lol.

[Shikaru]

I also just notice I named my jet pilot Johnathan...I won't be controlling him in the least, I just like naming certain important NPC's lol.

[Shikaru]

I'm definitely making a werewolf character before I post. Not going to have a big opening post for him, but it will tie into my post for Magnus.. Now to think of a name and such.

[Shikaru]

Oh, and, by the way Wiz, werewolves ARE immortal. Just googled that, thought I'd let you know hehe.

Thank you. i do hope everyone is ok with it.

Ummm....... WHAT?!

First off, we had a strict no-magic rule. The specific example was no fireballs. Not only did you just cast very clear magic, but you engulfed an area a quarter mile in diameter in heat strong enough to instantly vaporize humans, ripped apart the entire terebithia's, manifested magical flames, somehow made those flames solid, shattered all rules of physics by actually using these solid-fire wings to FLY, based on the fact that a human could never do such a thing with our body mass, meaning you're somehow also controlling your physical density,

I understand that Martin was boosting you, but he himself has powers restricted to telepathy, and addictive blood. Gabriel himself can send people into comas, create illusions, and bend perception, but even he can't turn himself into a magical bomb capable of taking out titanic warships, or fly. If we're setting the bar at this level, I'm going to have my next character summoning demons or something, because that was VERY magical.

Wait, what?
...
Not been here for some time, only lurking.
Sorry. ;_;
And werewolves?
I can deal with it...feel like making one now, but I'm too damn lazy for my own good.

[Shikaru]

He had the power of pyrokenisis, I granted him that. Martin enhanced his power significantly, since Mithias has a heart he has some form of heat signiture. You said yourself vampires gave off radiation, radiation can cause heat, radiation also causes explosions. His power wasn't magical, it was psychic. It is also far from summoning demons. Perhaps the wings could have been metaphorical, I'd imagine Mithias was heated abnormally from the fire, so therefore when the heat hit the cold it could have the same effect as steam to a certain degree. Which would make sense that it eventually stopped. No offense, but it has to be said. You were getting quite out of control with Jack and Terebitha, completely controlling the RP virtually, making Jack untouchable is the very definition of godmode. I allowed him to do this for the sole fact that I can't see something of that magnitude happening often or ever again for that matter.

[thewizardguy]

Radiation does not, in fact, cause heat. While infrared can cause heat, radiation does not. It causes the breakdown of atoms, more effective the less dense the atom is, which weakens molecules and through that cells, which is how radiation can cause cancer. The damaged cells can get infected. However, it does not, in fact, cause people to spontaneously vaporize
This heat was specifically mentioned to travel through walls, despite the fact that the Terebithia was heavily insulated using Metallic Glass, the strongest insulator known to man, in order to protect itself from the effects of the Exodus maneuver. This means it wasn't heat moving in a linear pattern, such as infrared, but the spontaneous generation of energy, or at least conversion of energy to heat energy, which defies any explanation.
The flames were metaphorical? I doubt it. He literally had fire coming out of his back after this happened, as well as the flaming wings. I really don't think they were metaphorical, and they were, in fact, magic.
Hot air mixing with cold air has a chance of causing tornadoes, but this is what occurs with massive shifts of air, global air currents colliding. The massive consumption of oxygen would cause all air to rush into the Terebithia, which is now a massive vacuum, meaning that a powerful gale would be pushing him towards the Terebithia, but would not in any way allow flight, or even gliding. The mixture of hot or cold air in such confined environments would not cause a tornado, as it would have no room for the reaction to start, esspecially as the Terebithia is moving downwards.

If you wanted Jack or the Terebithia out of the way, SAY SO! I was having a debate with Wraith about what to do, but he abandoned it in favor of roflstomping my character. I'd given him permission to kill Jack, but he also killed off all the AIs and the entirety of the Terebithia, as well as everything in it, which I'd specifically said were my backup characters for when jack died. He broke physics and all established rulings in the rp, as well as killing off Terebithia.

I'm sorry, but I find this incredibly rude. I'm fine with people asking me to back off with Jack, but to destroy everything like that without a word, esspecially using methods that break from the suspension of disbelief, is straight-out offensive. If this is the way you react to the idea of debate, or asking people anything, or the basic concepts of preserving realism in your rp, then you can go on without me.

Goodbye.

[Shikaru]

Look, Wiz, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cause you to leave this RP, at all, or anything of the sort. I'm not a person to stop someone from what they or doing or say they are wrong unless it really poses a issue, I had no concerns about Jack or Terebitha untill you started making him seem like God and everything Wraith did you basically stopped without any reprecussions. If you want, I'll tell Wraith to edit his post to make it seem like the heat caused the electronics to short circut and that is why it exploded and that he managed to escape out of the window or a hatch or something. I figured you wouldn't matter with the fact of both Jack and Terebitha being destroyed considering you still had Heaven's Greatest Weapon to reveal. I do admit it was wrong to allow Wraith to completely destroy my rule of no magic.

[akje]

*tepid argument concerning body heat and something such..*

Damnit, don't leave man.

[thewizardguy]

HGW was supposed to be IN Terebithia, and Mithias knew that. In fact, it's one of the things I'd told him when we were discussing actions. However, he completely ignores that and blows the living Hell out of everything I've created. This anger is mainly directed at him, for doing something like that, with no reason whatsoever.

Look, if everyone wants Jack and the Terebithia dead, which is apparenly the case, this is the easy solution. I leave, and you can continue doing this. Onikage dies, and Gabriel goes on a holiday to Hawaii.

Shikaru, I understand that you might not be the kind of guy to tell someone not to do something, but that's your responsibility as a GM. From my point of view, Jack was supposed to make it so Mithias had no choice but to go face Magnus. Jack is an incredibly smart guy, and thus I played him as a smart guy, with no superpowers but lots of cunning. I planned each of these events in advance, and everything happened according to that. However, I didn't know that apparently I was ruining the story so badly that you'd have all my favorite characters killed. It's your duty as GM to step up when that kind of crap happens.

However, I'm still mainly pissed at Wraithblade. I'll be going to cool down, I may be back later when I'm more calm.

[Shikaru]

I understand it was my responsibility as GM to say so. Perhaps we can all Kik or something and sort this out, I really don't want to see you go man..

[Wraithblade6]

We can have terebithia live. I can edit to make that more clear, but we have to have at least the communications out so that the rp doesn't get nuked. As for physics, you're not 100% correct in your understanding of it, wiz. I won't give a huge lecture from my retarded cellphone, but I will say that the "explosion" wasn't what you would typically envision. Its not a pressure wave or movement of any matter in a straight line outward, it's more like a wave of telekinetic energy that passes through matter, heating it not by conduction or convection, but as a supernatural event. Do you see? The wings thing is pretty darn sexy, and can be explained any number of ambiguous ways, but for now, all I care about is the coolness factor and that they slowed miths descent. Its not meant to be magic or overpowered.

[Wraithblade6]

Other people want to live too, wiz. Humans can't do that, hell, vampires can't either without blood. The way things were, I couldn't even kill Jack and not destroy the world. And what if somebody else threatens jack? He's always going to have his finger on the i-win button. This had to happen.
Please just think about it. I have to admit, I am also wondering if I did the right thing. I don't want you yo leave. You are my favorite player.

[Wraithblade6]

You also told me last night that HGW had already left terebith

Actually, telekinetic supernatural heat waves, surprisingly enough, are classified as magic in my book. Anything that defies all laws of physics in order to achieve a supernatural effect which cannot be scientifically explained in any way, is magic. And I'm not even counting the freaking wings.
Also, not overpowered? You killed 300 people, and blew up a machine the size of a small town, with a single attack. And that's not counting the people that'll be killed by the vacuuum, or the massive amount of ROCKETS in the Terebithia's weapons systems that'd rip the ship to pieces. You nuked the Terebithia instantly, and if all proceeds according to logic and physics, over 500 people on it are now dead because of that attack. Not. Overpowered. Huh?

Quite frankly, I'd already explained to you that I wasn't going to roflstomp the rp. If you lost, the Vampiric Republic would have fallen, radiation would hit most of America, the global economy would crash, and basically there would be a small apocalypse. Everyone would be in a post-apocalyptic warzone. It's not like the radiation would wipe out all life in America, there simply aren't enough nuclear reactors for that. I don't know if you honestly just ignored my explanation, or that you're consciously forgetting it as you post to justify your actions, and I'm not sure which pisses me off more.

You're rude, blow everything up, ignore the agreements we made, ruin everything I was working for, shatter the rules of the RP, and when you come back to find me complaining not only do you not apologize, but you BERATE me? I'm sorry, I'm kind of ANGRY right now.

Sorry, I was planning on cooling off before I returned, but that post...... I just had to answer.

[Wraithblade6]

I'm just going to wait to chat in person.
