[OOC] More than Human

[Chaos Wolf]

Looks like so far we have an interesting group of characters xd

[Teoinsanity]

Wiz ,this really looks cool ,I might join later.

[Wraithblade6]

That smite chaos ability work on lawful demons?

[thewizardguy]

@Wraithblade6
According to the power description, it's effect is dependent on the perception of the agent in question. So it depends on whether HE thinks you're lawful.

Also, why is everyone stalking me? I should make more rps just to see if everyone I know is just going to stalk me to them >.>

Not that I'm complaining, of course...

[Wraithblade6]

Nah, i just stalked you to this one cuz i liked the concept. Your metahuman rp can suckit.

[nookzer]

@thewizardguy

Right, it depends on what the agent believes.
The ability is powered by the agents willpower and zeal.
The more he believes striking his opponent will abolish chaos, the more effective he is.

This is also useful gameplay-wise because otherwise you'd have to know what alignment everyone was playing
And when most people don't pay a lot of attention to that, the lines get very blurry, very fast.

[thewizardguy]

Agreed.

Those damn blurry lines.

In any case, once Teo gets his character up, or another person joins, I'll set up the IC.

[thewizardguy]

All right, this seems to have slowed down for some reason. I'm going to wait a day, see if anyone else joins, then start up the IC. Make sure this doesn't die before it begins.

[Chaos Wolf]

I'm still here and I won't let this die I'm really excited for this one. ^^

[thewizardguy]

Thanks, glad to hear it (=

[nookzer]

I'm so exited for this

[thewizardguy]

James is accepted, glad to have you on board Arowne.

[akje]

So James can make his own halucinations become real?
Is that permanent? Does this create new humans, demons and monsters or does he summon the closest thing that resembles him?
What happens if he reads a book or watches a movie? Does Alice in wonderland cause him to start unleashing the mad hatter, the red queen and the goddamn jabberwocky?

[thewizardguy]

I'm making a GM call that creatures and objects created by the hallucinations are Constructs, they are generated and given shape by James and his mind. As such, when James' attention shifts, they simply cease to exist. They exist in the physical world only for as long as they exist within his mind.

This also means that knocking out James, or killing him, would instantly destroy anything created by his delusions. Much in the way that water only maintains the shape of it's container, the container being formed from James' mind.

This can, of course, be debated if anyone has different opinions on this matter.

@thewizardguy

That sounds like a good idea. You can have clear limitations and stuff then.
But I assume the constructs have their own will? Based on his own psyche. Would they know things he can't know?
If I shuffled a deck, drew a card and showed it to a construct but not to James. Would that figment of James's imagination know what card I drew?

If James imagines the T1000 and the T1000 encounters a locked door, which he opens by sticking his liquid hand in the lock and duplicate the key. Is it a problem that Jame's doesn't know what the key is supposed to be shaped like and thus cannot imagine the T1000 in the exact shape needed to open the door?

If James imagines a torch and sets things on fire, then forgets about the torch, does the fire disapear? Are burns healed? Are wounds caused by his constructs permanent at all?

There are many pointless questions that keep me up at night. Fun right?

[thewizardguy]

@akje

A construct of his mind is a fully functional being - to all intents and purposes it is seperate from his being. If he imagines it to have it's own intelligence, then it does have it's own intelligence. As such, it has it's own memory and thought pattern. They are not merely golems formed by his will, but rather manipulations of reality itself.

Effects caused by the construct - such as fire, or the destruction of an object - do not disappear once the construct appears. Even if the fire on the torch was a Construct, it simply served as a trigger for a perfectly natural fire on other objects, meaning that these effects are not reliant on James.

Of course, this is based on my own interpretation of the power, and I would ask that Arowne make it known if I am incorrect in answering any of these questions.

[thewizardguy]

Also, the first IC post is up now.

[nookzer]

Yes finally
