Oh, so in case anyone is confused at my writing. (which is likely as my middle name might as well be ambiguity...)

My character is (in my understanding) near three previous players that already posted. (tagged them)

The idea in my head was: "My character wakes up nearby and uses one of his skills to try and spook/attract one of the voices to come help him over the cracks in the floor."

(Sorry if this was unclear, fighting my ambiguity has been a heavy struggle for most of my adult life.. xD )

Voices, lovely, but confused voices. The great shiny bulk of the green and red moved the Naijio forward. Steadily judging the distance between his next few steps, his mind awoke and his sight returned.
A grey mass, littered with cracks. How would I ever hunt when I could easily fall through all these?

More voices, audible ones. Some far away, but most really close by.

After some radio static and high squeeking sounds, the noise of a screaming little girl was sent to meet the lovely voices just around the corner.

No one? Oh, well... time to crash the party, I guess.

I'm so excited to play... who wants to be encountered by "big, shiny and colorful"? :D

I'm absolutely torn on my character... and choosing the 5 powers.

So, for all intents and purposes, I'll try and see if I can get my character done (completely) in the next 20 or so hours.

If I fail, please know that I tried my very best.

I don't mind being at a disadvantage.
I think it allows the character to have very outspoken threats and challenges.

Oh, alright. Seems nice.
Do you want to do/allow a visualize the rooms we're in?
(like, linking images that solidify our ideas of what we're up against in terms of combat or location)

Same could be done for the enemies we face...

Accessories are the delight of a GM. Innate abilities are the bane of a GM.

Weapons and equipment can be lost, stolen, malfunction, jammed, possessed, depowered, have a limited number of charges or other limitations.

Innate abilities rarely have any of those limitations. Maybe sometimes they'll get depowered or the character may get winded but that's about it. This gives the GM less options in his or her storytelling.

@Assallya

Is one of the ways to fix that to have our characters powers be subject to the environment?
I'm thinking more in terms of 'werewolves under a full moon, regardless of being in it's light', then 'vampires go out at night'.
(The slightly older versions of werewolves)

Could we maybe make them "state" based more than abilities?
Like, "Once you are completely exhausted, you may release the adrenaline to create a fireball."
This is more of a reversed "you don't have enough mana", but it should make your character resort to "getting" into a state where they can call upon their powers, rather than blasting everything away at once.

Might be shooting my character in the foot here, but the moon(or stars, plotdevice, character's mood) could be gm-controlled.

We might also relate the weakness of our characters to our powers usage?

'Use it too much you die' hasn't listened to his own advice in most media... but maybe we could spice it up by having it depend on the other characters/other characters conditions?

(Yes, I am hurling ideas at you.. all of you :p )

I'm just gonna tease y'all with my characters art :P (Yes, made this myself. No, I'm not the artist you know.)
