[OOC] Corrected & Connected

[Hella Cute]

So, will we be doing a lot of collab posts? Like in group documents?

[Genkai]

If you did want to add another, I'd say add another low level skill? And there may be collabs for certain things but it would depend on the scene and who you're with and want to gloss over. I've only done 1-2 myself but that's because I like reactions right then and there, rather than skipping through too much that might filler. If someone can do a good collab post though, go for it.

[Hella Cute]

Oh, and here's an idea for a couple new spells, since I bumped up her age earlier: Phantasm: Creates a digital clone of Glitch that acts on its own. Can be cast multiple times in a row, resulting in a maximum of twenty-five clones (from no exertion to high exertion.) The clones can not use spells above basic level. Petal Shower: A shower of flower petals fall in a designated 10m circle before violently exploding and setting anyone within on fire. Edit: Rip, I didn't see your post while I was writing this one. >.<

[Genkai]

We're thinking one or the other but not both. 22 is still the minimum age and still shows she's not out of training yet...if you pick the clone thing, they can't do spells and you'd need to limit it to 10 every time she logs in. We're still in debate though and I should log off. I'll be talking with the GMs off-site though so any final words can come from them. ^^;

[Hella Cute]

I was leaning towards the clones anyway. I'll go ahead and add that one with the restrictions.

@NeoAC After some discussion, I think the sound cannon abilities above 7 might be too much for this early on. As for the healing properties, we can consider that support ability a corrector upgrade. I also think having 2 cannons might be a bit much- especially considering that would allow you to dual wield AOE powers.

@AliceInRedHeels Ah okay, now I sorta get it, it's a balance issue. Yeah, I don't mind elaborating on some weak points at all. I'll put more detail into the CS proper, but the basic idea is just that her defense would be weak (she doesn't wear any armor or even pseudo-digital-armor, favouring mobility instead) and the fact that she has no range at all I think would be a huge drawback. What if we fought, say, somebody with a lot of armor? Covered in spikes? She'd need to be very strategic about how she approached certain situations, and she'd always be at risk. And again... I appreciate the points you're putting forward towards her cynicism, and I can kind of see where your skepticism comes from, but it's exactly as you say. She is pretty angry at the world. She doesn't like the way society works, and she probably would complain about it from time to time. Look at her bio, I think a little disillusionment with the perfect vanilla illusion might be a bit justified. But if possible, I'd like to address the actual worry you're facing that you'd make me want to change it? Rather than "isn't that a bit intense" are you saying "I don't want to be around a potentially obnoxious character like that?" In which case I'd have to ask you to just trust in my writing, I guess, rather than basing your whole fear off of a bullet point on a character sheet. I'm really sorry I'm sticking so hard on this, but it just sounds like you just worry that she's immature, and I can't say that I think that's entirely valid just from one bullet point and a sentence describing it. I feel like maybe there's a specific thing that you're worried about that lies beyond that character trait that I'm just not understanding. I've never had/seen a problem with having a character run their mouth a little bit or be a 'Dolorous Edd' (in Ice and Fire terms.) And I can't confidently address an issue that I can't fully understand. Do you feel like I'm just going to be an ass about it (much like I'm making an ass of myself right now, probably?) Sorry, I feel like I'm ranting, and sticking too hard to this. It's not that I feel like I'm being attacked, rather I feel like I'm the one doing the attacking, and I'm not trying to. But if I toned it down without totally understanding where you're coming from, I'd just end up changing a blip on her CS and RPing her the exact same way I otherwise would have, and that doesn't sound like an actual solution to the problem. @Genkai Since you asked for a ping, and I'm not sure how much you're discussing with your co-gms, My response to your feedback may still need a look-through. Or if Alice's last points covered it, works fine for me too, just thought I'd point it out to make your life a little easier if you still wanted to address it. If you end up not having any more to add, my own post above will probably be my last rebuttal to the subject. I don't want to be fighting this much over a character sheet that is, from my understanding, mostly fine. I feel like I'm just wasting time beyond this, and I can argue in circles for days. So please do speak up about what I addressed above (and any other lingering issues, if there are any) and otherwise, I'll just change what I'm asked to change. It's just not worth the effort if you're not gonna be happy with it, and it's not like I want to be alienated out of the RP before it's even begun. But as I stated above, if I could get a better understanding of what exactly the major worry is other than 'cynicism sounds a bit extreme' then I'd be more confident making a change you'd be happy with, or maybe putting your worries to rest anyway. Also sorry if I missed anything in the big wall of conversation. I'm guilty of only skimming through that, so if I've missed some feedback do let me know please. EDIT: After speaking a bit with Alice in PM, I've changed the flavour text a bit. It now reads as follows: "Karako gets along well with individuals, but doesn't like 'society' as a whole. It's not as though she wants to pick a fight with everyone for no reason, but instead, she has the sort of mindset that makes her the first to laugh at a bad situation, or the first to get angry when things get unfair. She expects the worst, and it's hard to shock her when things turn south. But in return, she tends to complain a lot about nothing, and take a pessimistic outlook on life." Maybe that will settle some of the worries about her? I'm leaving up everything I said before for reference, but if that's good enough, let me know.

@TheMusketMan Would he constantly be on his bike? If so perhaps making him almost a centaur but half motorcycle instead? It would be a valid reason to have the bike in the DgtWld and would be pretty snazzy. If not we really still don't see a real value for it besides flash and to make him look cool. It be a bit unfair to the others if they're left running around, and he's zipping circles around them? ~ Alice

@AliceInRedHeels

...Alright, what if he keeps the Ghost Rider form but only can get his bike once he absolutely needs it. That way he's not always zipping around and he still gets to look like his favorite comic book character.

[NeoAJ]

@vietmyke Sounds reasonable. I was worried about making the cannons too OP in the beginning, so I definitely agree to the limit. The 11 bit was a joke, but I can definitely throw 7-10 up there. Saves something for the later stages for sure. Little bit more disappointed about the duel wielding ruling but I can see why. I didn't intend for the AoE to be that big, considering they are directed cannons, it was going to be more a cone effect akin to...well the best I can think of coming off the night shift at this hour is the QB vision system that Madden put in place for a few years. I'm open to dropping one of the cannons but I do so in the hopes that Atomik has the option to eliminate recoil by firing with both hands on the gun. Obviously if firing on the run, she may not have the presence of mind to do so and as such recoil would come into effect again, but having both her mitts on the weapon should allow for a more accurate shot.

[vietmyke]

She should need Both hands on the weapon to fire accurately in my opinion. Atomik can keep 1-7 and a single cannon. She can either pick up more power or a second cannon as an upgrade later on. That's all the technical feedback I have for your character, haven't looked at personality or background enough to make more feedback yet

[Genkai]

Gonna pop back here in a bit after I get a one on one post up that's been on the back burner for a bit. In the mean time, I'll have some other tabs open so I can finish my CS and check out the goings-on here too. But hello all. -waves-

[Anonymous]

Yass she has returned.

[Krauxis]

*yawn* Hoya boss. I still think you're nuts for keeping so busy.

[Genkai]

Oh, I think I'm flattered. But hey, I gotta give it up to my awesome busy bee GMs as well. ^^; If I can get one essay done today and half tomorrow, it might make things easier. But I do have an idea for my CS should that at least be done by tonight. Or else people will come to my house with pitchforks and torches...

[Anonymous]

Count on it *grabs pitchfork*

[Genkai]

Oh no! Guess my chocolate chip cookies are no use against that~

[Krauxis]

I wouldn't be too flattered, it's coming from the laziest person on the planet, so... well, think whatcha want~ Looking forward to seeing what you've got for a CS.

[Anonymous]

*puts pitchfork away*
