@Gisk Oh, I thought that morphing other people made you a copy of them. Also I thought I read somewhere that someone acquired an old dog, and then morphed into old dog???? That could be my faulty memory or my forays into fanfiction though...

I was considering giving some level of control to the morphing power, more than in the series anyway. Like, it's based on DNA right? Everything else that isn't written in the DNA should be fiddle-able right? Age for one, but also height and weight and muscle mass, that stuffs just as much nutrition as it is genetics right? Also hair length? Style even? But like not colors, even if you acquire from someone with pink hair it isn't natural. But if it remembers things like scars it should be able to remember piercing holes and stuff right? But then what about tattoos?

Like I said, the morphing process leaves a lot of questions.
@Gisk Added! I want to have something like a list of the rules that will be easily seen by the PCs. In the series they had to learn everything on their own and it took time and unlikely circumstances. Best to have the rules right from the beginning, no?
I suppose the parent thing is true, but the morphing tech seems to latch on to things like age and scar tissue, but not stuff like injuries so... *shrug*

Well you have to revert to your "true" form between morphs, and the "true" form is the only one you can spend significant amounts of time in without worry. You'd want something versatile and comfortable.
@Nallore I eagerly await to see your brain-child!

By the by, isn't this answered? I recall one character who was stuck as a bird, but gained morphing powers again, and apparently was allowed to go back in time to gain his original form as a morph?


There will be no time travel, because that was Ellimist's and Crayak's doing I believe, and we're ignoring the omnipotent gamers this time. Perma-morphed individuals can regain the power to morph, but it'd be impossible to regain their original form as there'd be no DNA to acquire. Unless they have a clone. Which is unlikely. But they could get a new human form by morphing someone else or combining DNA to create a new form, and then surpassing the time limit again to become perma-morphed, and then they could just get the morphing power again.
In the beginning we're just going to get our feet, but things will pick up soon and we'll have to do a bit of diplomating with alien factions.



The Chee will make an appearance, as will rebels and other aliens that can be freed from the Yeerks like the Hork-Bajir. Maybe even aliens from outside Earth that haven't been targeted by, or escaped attacks by, the Yeerks.
@Gisk Ello mon ami, I'm good. You gonna join us?? :P

Name: Kaden “Kade” Ritter

Appearance: Kaden has light skin and faint freckles, with dark brown eyes and even darker, nearly black, hair. He’s a bit on the thin side, though he often wears hoodies or other baggy clothes that make that fact unnoticeable. He also wears hats, almost never seen without one, everything from beanies and pompom tops to bucket hats to baseball caps and flat brims.

Age: 18

Personality: Quiet and thoughtful, Kade is a courteous and kind person, on the outside anyway. He cares about how people think of him, and finds it difficult to be genuine without breaking his kind and stoic mask. He wants to rage and scream and cry, not to be dramatic or draw attention to himself, but to actually feel real for once. He’s vindictive and self indulgent, only barely managing to stuff petty revenge behind his mask, and hiding his weaknesses the same way.

History: In the beginning Kade’s parents were together, but they were never happy. His father was blatantly an alcoholic and abusive, but it took a few years before his mother kicked him out for good. His mother wasn’t much better, not into drugs or booze, but just generally irresponsible, cruel, and ill-suited for anything related to parenthood. She rested on her parents’ money like it was a cure for all her problems and continued living like the spoiled princess her father treated her like as a child.

With less than stellar examples to follow, it wasn’t any wonder their only kid grew up thoroughly messed up. Luckily his friends, while oblivious, cushioned the worst of it. In the beginning at least, by their teenage years not even Kade’s perfect mask protected him from the booze and mary jane craze that swept across his school. Thankfully a penchant for drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana were the only bad habits he maintained, and only sparingly so people wouldn’t think badly of him.

The strange obsession with hats, and the perfect mask he always wore contributing to his outfits, combined nicely to give him a good sense of fashion. He has a part time job at a local clothing store called Outclass, with an opportunity to advance much higher in the company once he graduates. His place on the school swim team came with required volunteer hours at one of several locations, including the San Francisco Marine Wildlife Rescue Center, a veterinary clinic specialized in rescuing dolphins, turtles, and other marine wildlife in and around the San Francisco Bay.

Skills: Observation, deception, swimming, and a fashion sense.
