[OOC] Myriad Reality

[Mammalia]

Do you all enjoy long posts with description more than short ones in which you get more interaction?

@Nimda

Only in fights. Description in this roleplay, I think, is best used for describing attacks in the clearest manner.

[Araby264]

So close! I almost got him.

@Mammalia
Sven. It is my mission in life to break that armor.

[Multifarious]

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

Just wondering.

@Nimda

In everything else I can think of, namely conversation, specification < interaction.

@Araby264

I'll give you a hint. Speed. A lot of strong attacks over a long-ish period of time is basically nothing. A lot of strong attacks over a wey short period of time is basically what you have to have. It's a thing where having either-or just won't cut it, but the attacks have to be executed both swiftly and with brute force. I know it's hard, as Sven is my most powerful character by more than a mile. You've got to overcome his speed, abilities, reaction time, endurance, and his plethora of VASE-based maneuvers to get through the armor. Then, even without the armor, he is still quite powerful, being more nimble and a lot more conservative. Take away his armor and you're making a trade: his mind for the suit(s).

@Mammalia

I just keep all of my action commands into a single, ultra-complex sentence. =P

Interaction is why we're not all authors.

@Multifarious

Interesting. Do you ever classify your characters? For instance, Techi has the most raw power of all of my characters, Data is the smartest, PD is the most versatile, David is the most prepared, X is the most skilled, etc.

...I say I classify my chars. But they surprise me much that it is pretty hard.

@Multifarious

Thanks for the tip, I just want to break it because I've never been able to.*

How do they surprise you?

@Nimda

Definitely. Ridge has the most raw power, Sven has the most flexibility in combat situations, Rythian has the most up his sleeve (I haven't even revealed half of the Hidden Elements even after all this time), Toby has the most defensive capabilities, Vex is the smartest, Sjin is the fastest... I have all kinds of categories.

[Spiritblitz]

@Dynamics

They do something that they haven't done before and it changes their style. And how they are. They adapt to something that I usually don't think they would.

@Araby264

The only characters who have are two of Dark's characters, and that's because Dark used to always severely underestimate the real strength of Sven's tech, and therefore he'd overestimate his characters' ability to just strip it off of him when they pleased.

@Multifarious

Haha, same. It's pretty fun; maybe we should have an awards ceremony for all of our characters.

@Spiritblitz

But you determine how they react. Do the situations make you realize they would react a certain way that you didn't anticipate?

And Dark's guys were pretty OP.

@Nimda

Yes. Exactly that.

[Spiritblitz]

When I RP. I just go with the flow. In a sense I try to make it seem like real life to me. I don't expect anything when I RP...except that my chars to live.

@Nimda

Right after we have another tournament! Hehe

I mean, one of them was Gemini, who I believe was confirmed to be roughly even with Sven as far as total combat prowess was concerned and could totally do that, but the other one was well below Sven, and I really didn't have a way to write around it happening in that particular instance.

@Spiritblitz

I do the same, unless I allow them to die.

@Multifarious

I don't blame you. Dark overestimated the current power when everyone moved to the Guild and toned down from universe busters to planet busters,

@Nimda

Yeah... Sven and Maelstrom are my only planet busters at this point, though Ridge has the potential to be.

I hate it when that happens.
