[OOC] The Gifted: A Fast Paced Superpower RP

[NarcissisticPotato]

Sorry guys, I've just been horribly busy over the weekend! I'll be out today but I'll be back on later!

[Letter Bee]

Cool, and thanks!

Also, how will the Heroes be able to attack Avalon and still retain Government approval?

[NarcissisticPotato]

Also, I love you all but that helicopter would have been blasted out of the sky. Completely wrong way to go about it due to the fact that you just flew in without any form of approval. I'll let it drop but you guys seem to underestimate the powers of Avalon. Raid it, if you want, but I'm giving you all warning that some characters may be captured or killed.

[Teal]

Yeah, I think this is the main problem with this RP: too many asspulls. I'm guilty of that too, hell my MHRC NPC is like the epitome of a deus ex machina, but at least I tried to make my hunt for Nightingale as legitimate as I could.

[Aura]

My character is weak, scared and ain't doing no raiding XXD

[Archmage MC]

At least you don't have to pull punches with Light. Thats sorta the whole idea with her, lol.

just waiting on Yogg.

Also, how much super strength should she have?

I'm not planning on raiding Avalon if I don't have to. And, thanks for not making me have to.

[Letter Bee]

Sorry to double-post, but, Teal, everyone, can you tell me what Ass Pulls I did besides Deus ex Machina in that Helicopter (yes, that was my fault and I admit that it was a skeevy solution even as I was writing it)? I genuinely want to improve, so I want to know the specifics.

[Teal]

Just so you know, I'm not referring to you personally, but if you want me to point 'em out for you, then sure.
Your first post in the first arc: Cedric and William showed up amidst the battle without prior development for the sole reason to provide Nightingale a fighting chance.
Second Arc, Disney Concert Hall: Gary Stuart sent the metas to be on the lookout for an attack without any intel suggesting that one will happen because Disney. This is, however, somewhat subverted due to there being a large concetration of protesters in the area.
First arc again, the aftermath: Turns out the government had a healing meta that was never mentioned previously.
While most of these can't be classified as asspulls, they just happen abruptly. No prior mention, no development, no no.nothing. I do have.praise in store for you too: I do like how you used the registry to track metahumans and how the charscters react, with Constantine being my favorite (while I'm very psyched.to see.how Cedric matures)
I am terribly sorry if I offended you. I wasn't doing it on purpose.

[Letter Bee]

It's okay, all your points were valid.

And, thanks! Glad to see Constantine and Cedric are likable.

[Teal]

I don't know what to feel about Cedric, honestly. He does appear whiny and unrefined most of the time, but he seems to be getting steady development, which is what I like in a character. All of the teens in this RP are already experienced death machines, Alex Mercer Biobeast being a prime example, but Cedric really feels like a 15 year old.
Shortly put, he is not likeable yet, but he's a good character if that makes any sense.

[Letter Bee]

Thanks; I'll try and make sure Cedric stays that way. Anyway, gtg sleep!

[Archmage MC]

Let me know what you think of Light when she gets fleshed out more. So far there isn't much to her, lol.

So, is there some sort of chatroom or something you guys are using?

I hate this aspect if this or any RP. Sometimes you get a gifted kid that can hang. Ced I can see be he is a child solider. Ced looks acts and behaves like a fifteenth year old which I think is right and hasn't killed anyone yet. By contrast Yogs slaughter like two like we're in CoD, ain't no thang. I always thought this was about or wanted to see as much realism as possible. Not saying Yogs wrong, I just have triubkw making it fit.

[Teal]

Is the story Elijah told supposed to hint he was a soldier, or that he was just screwing with Alec?

[AcerRo]

It does hint to that but its not his story. He was only there for part of it.

[NarcissisticPotato]

No, no infighting! D: I meant approval from the government or Aperture, not me! I would have liked to have been notified because I could have acted accordingly. A low-flying aircraft that's not meant to be over Avalon will be shot out of the sky. Period.

[Letter Bee]

Ah, I see. The problem was that you sometimes go online when it's almost time for me to sleep, and I didn't know how long Aura would stay online. I thought that if I waited till you woke up, well, I wouldn't be able to get the 'Abigail business' over with.

Sorry for my impatience.

Yeah, either Sync.in or Skype.

[Yog Sothoth]

How many characters are we allowed to have?
