[OOC] The Relics (No Plot/Fantasy/Character Driven/Worthy of Skepticism)

[Ellri]

Based on real info, but not solely. We had to run around cleaning up last time we meddled with the weather. Nah. Joking.

It is well-known that weather is not merely local. Mess it up one place and you might trigger climate change. But you might also not do it. It depends a lot on where you mess it up and how. Disrupt one of the major ocean currents and you're sure to get climate change somewhere. We've not studied it sufficiently to say whether a single thunderstorm is enough, but there are enormous forces at play in one, so it is possible. But again it depends on the where.

Your the GM sirah. Whatever you are comfortable with.

You clearly have some sort of plan to explore, I do not. I am the GM, so I should be the more malleable one here. Now what are we doing?

Squabbling over nothing substantial.

Not what I meant, but well-said.

[Ellri]

Thanks. It needed saying

[Guilty Spark]

I'll just post solo and assume the vocators didn't manage to follow a chariot which was barreling through the streets.

[Sep]

Throw up a pad using the website of your choice. I say this as some pads don't work for some people for some reason.

[Guilty Spark]

I've changed my mind, I've never really been comfortable with collaborative posts anyhow.

[Sep]

Oh, all right. I just prefer them over lots of small posts, I'll make an attempt at the King later then.

[Guilty Spark]

Posted, it'll be hard for vocators to strike at him here but if you've got a plan go for it.

I'll make a separate post for Sitara.

[WilsonTurner]

WOO!
I WAS MENTIONED
INDIRECTLY
SOMEWHAT

[Guilty Spark]

Take it or leave it Willy.

How much of a lesser change might occur if you didn't just create a storm, you just manipulated what was already around you into the area/region's type of storm? Like going to the Easter section of 'Murica, and then using the conditions that are already there to form a tornado?

I will NOT take it, because it is fine where it is. So, I will leave it there. :DD

That means don't remove it :c

[Guilty Spark]

Alright then, it'll stay.

Guessing I am, less of an impact it would have.

We can't say for sure. We don't know enough about that science. We're not going to say anything we do not have sufficient facts to support. It might make a mess or it might not. You need someone with more knowledge of meteorological sciences and mechanics to answer this.

[chukklehed]

Actually making a storm wouldn't cause that big a shift, if you did it correctly. The big thing that "weather manipulators" have to worry about is that, most of the time, when you "craete" a storm in one place, what you're really doing is moving moisture from the surrounding areas into one spot, which means it doesn't rain in those places, which domino effects outwards. Likewise if you keep an area storm free, what you're really doing is shunting that moisture elsewhere, creating floods and more domino effect. If your power used what was already in the area, the impact would be minimal.

[BingTheWing]

Again, more facts. This is murder.

Btw, waiting for chukkle and bark to react.

Facts for ya.
