@Stabby
So how does this travel work considering Fenris is a being that exists in the ninth dimension and creates less powerful avatars throughout the lower dimensions in order to interact with its peoples?

@ZAVAZggg

Well, I would imagine that without dimensional limits, it might feel like there's an abnormally large amount of room to stretch within it's avatar, and can comfortably fit more of itself within it.
But at the same time it would be thrown off kilter by the absense of the reliable stability a dimensional fabric provides.
Of course, should it choose to add more of itself to the avatar and leave it there as it returns to the third dimensional layer, the avatar will likely be affected.
In fact, I will bet that it might go through some kind of process or experience should it's creator attempt to keep that extra amount of themself in their avatar.

An idea I have is that maybe you could liken it to a higher dimensional version of the process tier threes go through in becoming tier fours if you want? Of course it's your character, so it'll be interesting to see what you come up with.

What do the rest of you think about this?
I'm asking because it would be interesting to hear how this might fit into existence.

In reference to the last line, at least, Existence has what are called Complexity Layers that build upon each other, and this could exist at a lower one. So if you could "look" at the layers, on ours you might see a human, but on a higher layer you might see a network of interconnected systems.

@Webmaster

Then I think this would be close to being a foundational layer that might connect to different parts of existence that have an alternative concept to what we call dimensions.

Honestly this is such an abstract concept that I'm having a hard time explaining it lol.
I wouldn't be surprised if this ended up confusing someone.

I'ma bed, night guys.

@Stabby

G'night. I'm gonna turn in as well.

Any criticisms on Flicker's actual power and how it's utilized?

Because I'm legit coming up with this on the fly.

@Stabby

No, nothing in regards to power. Some of the action symbols in this fight are getting a little literary, but I can live with that.

Multiple long sentences with stylistic flair such as ellipses, adding human touches of uncertainty, and things like that. It's not end of the world or anything, just something I noticed.

Alright.
Should I continue trying to keep them as concise as possible?

It's difficult to set a hard and fast rule, since it's something that clicks over time. They typically wouldn't give more information that a neutral observer with remarkable perception would be able to pick up on. So rather than being an avenue for using third person, it's more of a system to describe the exchange of information. So something like *Feels happy* wouldn't really be valid since there's no information exchange, whereas *Smiles* would, because one of those transfers information between parties. Something like *Detects your emotions* *You detect that I feel happy* would also be valid for the same reason. Similarly, *My face appears contorted and strained* would be a better choice than *Looks... strange* since the former is a concrete information transfer whereas the latter is a function of interpretation ("what does strange look like to someone who has seen it all?") and adds a personalization in the form of ellipses that implies that a cognitive source is adding detail to reflect their opinions on the matter.

That's the idea behind the action symbol system, at least (and I hope it makes some degree of sense). There are edge cases (such as The Legend crushing the device that was observing his actions and generating the symbols to begin with, which cut the transmission, as seen in the exchange a few days ago), but that really just depends on how far you want to dive into what kinds of things are actually watching these exchanges.

@Meta

Got it, thanks.

Made a small edit to help clarify what Fenris did with the third dimension there.

[DELETED jdl3932]

So how would I open another account on here in order to play a different character at the same time as Fenris, or whoever, like the rest of you guys do?

It worked. Do I have to introduce myself on that alternate account or can I just start posting?
