[OOC] A True Sacrifice - CLOSED

[Mirrodin]

True.. Well.. I'm at a loss for idea then lol. I can't think of powers for an archon of space beyond teleportation. Maybe invisibility? Bending the space around them? But they could also be a light thing.. Ugh

[Barioth]

Archon of Mind? Telepathy and Mind-reading stuff would be interesting

[Mirrodin]

I debated it but I think I would need to change the lore in order to add that kind of power since all the sentient species began as Archons..

@Mirrodin

Are you talking space as in the cosmos or space as in area?

[Mirrodin]

at the point i'm willing to concede on either if there are good powers to be incorporated ><

[BreakingMe]

What about Matter State Manipulation?

Edit: also, I don't know how imperative it is to you that the teams be equal but we could always arrive at the temple to find the Archon of Magic dead...

[Skai]

Oo. Finding an archon dead would be a good warning about the danger they're in.

[Kaalee]

@Skai We've got a plan for that love, don't worry.

[Skai]

@Kaalee As long as it isn't the Archon of Time again :P

Jersh wanted to see this:

Stravier

Who is Stravier? Alex Stravier was a researcher during the early B.R.F. He participated in many interesting projects, including the likes of their first success, Subject 3. But Subject 17 was the most interesting to him. He showed no signs of genetically enhanced powers like the other subjects. Only defects. It didn’t make any sense. The genetic footprint they used was a copy of 16’s, with minor tweaks. 16 was a powerful Breaker who destroyed himself in anger, confusion, and ultimately insanity. 17 was engineered to be a more passive and calm version of 16. The passive genetics worked, but somehow overwrote or hid the Breaker potential. When he escaped, the B.R.F. council members voted to let him leave, but Alex pushed back. He wanted to see if powers eventually developed, so he was left as the sole member of Project 17. He watched 17’s progress and reported regularly to his largely uninterested superiors. Being around 17 was easy on account of his lack of eyesight. In addition, recognizing Alex’s voice wasn’t a problem. They were careful never to reveal their true voices around him. If he ended up like 16, they didn’t want to put anyone in danger. There was the problem of his name though. 17 knew “Alex” was the head of operations on his project, so Alex went by Stravier when he started integrating himself in the life of 17.
Stravier wore what everyone else in The 7th Octant wore: long jackets, gloves, a scarf. The 7th Octant was a harsh environment where summer didn’t last long.
When he moved in with 17, he pretended to be a retired man. Communication was sparse. He played board games, asked riddles, and exercised with 17, but he was no smarter nor athletic than any other citizen. Alex became intrigued with 17’s fixation on sounds. He liked to hear the sounds of the world, rather than see the sights. He indulged himself in some of 17’s favorites, but 17 obviously enjoyed them more.

When Stravier finally came to, he had a wicked headache. He checked the house for 17 and silently cursed himself when he found no trace of him, only an apartment that looked like it had just been robbed. “The B.R.F. is going to kill me.” Outside, he found the W.G.A. Peace Corp crawling the area inspecting a few large impacts on the already cracked central walkway.
Fast forward fifteen minutes. Stravier, after introducing himself to the Peace Corp and taking over the situation, had learned from the witnesses that “a bald man wearing a golden headset, goggles, and a bandana was walking down the street when his footsteps suddenly caused everyone nearby to be deafened and knocked back slightly. After a few steps like this, he disappeared with a blast that carried more force than the others combined.”
17 was his life work. To have him literally disappear on him like this was devastating. But the sonic boom inducing blows the ground? That was truly and interesting and unprecedented power. That discovery alone will keep Project 17 alive at the B.R.F, not to mention the golden headphones 17 had acquired.
Getting the attention of anyone at B.R.F. Headquarters was a trial. Everyone was bustling about at the sighting of a rogue S-Class Breaker that had set Byrgenwerth Square in the 3rd Octant on fire. He couldn’t get anyone to investigate the anomaly he had just witnessed, especially with 17 not even classified as a Breaker, so he walked in and did the research himself.
The B.R.F. knew of the headphones. They were found drifting through space with some otherworldly debris. They were made of a foreign metal, foreign leather, and intricate mechanical workings that seemingly accomplished nothing. They were researched for a time, but the materials weren’t useful enough to be tested any further. It was locked away in the vault. According to records, it was still there. The powers 17 showed weren’t documented. Stopping a bullet with a sonic boom, causing craters accompanied by more super-sonic events? He quickly made an Anomaly Report, archived it, and updated 17’s profile. He wasn’t going to find out anything more here.
