Worm - The Malfesant Throne

@Sickle-cell I'm a bit interested. I literally can't get enough Worm, with Worm 2 starting February (probably).

Decoy's explanation raised more questions than it answered, for Ira at least. She held her tongue restrained herself from asking a million questions, and it showed on her face this time; a deep breath cleared the curious expression, though the fact that she checked to make sure no one saw was telling. At the mention of Herme's, Ira started. She had been collecting all the information she could, and the fact that he had been involved in illicit activities hadn't come up. Everyone had been surprisingly tight lipped, and if she didn't know better, she would've assumed he had been told to stay away from the Wards.Though, with this new information, that option became a lot more likely. He could easily have some sort of Master power, or even be under the influence of one. Corrupting the next generation of heroes was probably high on the 'avoid at all costs' list.

The information he had provided was invaluable though, apparently, and the role Hermes had in the raid he, Inkscape, and Protean had preformed clarified with this context. She had to assume he had played a similar role in that context, considering how major a blow to the Bratva it was purported to be. The new information he had provided had shown a Community rally was taking place, and that the Wards could use that to investigate an active location when it came to illegal goods.

Lillian's chatter brought Ira out of her head, but she was already two sentences in. It was strategy planning, and Ira was kind of embarrassed that she had zoned out during that of all things. She waited a beat before contributing to make sure she didn't interrupt anyone else. ”I can help you scout with my goggles on hand to assess any threats. I also recently finished a device, and I think this would be a great time to field test it."

As she spoke she removed a bracelet from her pocket. It was a bit thicker than a normal bracelet, with a dark blue color and a raised button that had a power symbol on it. "I already got it approved by Decoy, but I made a device to help increase Evely-I mean Tulpa. To help increase Tulpa's effectiveness. It lets her more easily assist with scouting distant areas, by allowing her projection to instantly move to my location. I think it also increases her scouting range, but I'm not quite sure about that. Sometimes my power feels like more art than science." Ira read the room as best she could, her eyes lingering on Decoy and Tulpa for a bit longer than the others.

@Eragon Thank you for expressing interest. I can answer any questions that come up, if Eklispe doesn't sneak in and do so first~

The woman's shrill screams echoed in Zach's head as he watched the villain on screen. Pay-per-view, of a sort. Troll started talking, and Zach remembered her power fully in the midst of her speaking. The words left her lips, the words that had been frustrating Zach for months and he was on his feet. It was over, and as she finished her last sentence Zach picked up the TV. He threw it to the ground, shattering it with the impact.

A breath grated through grit teeth as Judah's calm washed over him. It wasn't working as well as it normally did, the words kept clawing to the surface. I could've saved them It was irrational because she hadn't been there. She had no foresight, she could only say what hurt, regardless of honesty. It made no sense, and it still left Zach raw and bleeding. Troll was a hammer not a scalpel.

He turned to his _(three?) companions. It took two attempts for him to steady his voice, the words sounding strained and the pitch off. ”She won't kill the hostage." His expression betrayed doubt. There was no regret, just unease. Judah would feel the pain, but it was a different sort from when the words were first spoken. It was less visceral, more a bruise than a stab. I don't want to know what happens when she actually twists the knife He thought morbidly, turning away slightly so his compatriots couldn't fully see his face.

@SantosGabriel77 that's alright, I can understand if you didn't notice the rule about character sheet posting. It's just kind of frustrating when it happens cause some people do it when they're way too confident in their sheet. I'm looking forward to your completed character sheet~

@seanmcchapman It happens to the best of us, and me.

@Jaded It is better, and if you wanted to leave the modifications and skills section as-is I would be fine with that. I'd still like you to correct the history section, but I doubt you forgot. After you fix that, you should be good to go, I'll check that once it's corrected and you can move him to the CS tab. If any other members post a character from Erialond I might suggest you iron out the two character's relationship in the first IC post, or maybe change the "history" section to reflect their relationship (whatever that may be). Subjects are normally exposed to each other before the contest begins, after all.

Before the first 'fake' gets activated, I will be asking each member how they feel about their character being a possible enemy. The 'enemy' get activated via keyword, so this won't involve characters working against each other before their activated (unless the character decides to for other reasons). Characters who are fakes have a very high chance of dying, so keep that in mind.

The young tinker open the gift gingerly, removing the disk carefully from its packaging. She turned it over, examining each side and taking note of the minimal amount of interaction. Decoy explained it, and Ira seemed surprised, mumbling to herself questions about the design. She couldn't see an easy spot to place a power source, among other things troubling her.

She giggled quietly at Lillian's reaction, smiling to herself as the questions kept coming. Ira didn't bother asking any menial questions, instead leaning back and waiting for Decoy to expand on his statement about their mission. It would come in time, she knew he wouldn't mention it then leave them hanging, and asking would probably delay further anyways.

@Jaded I think Durk is pretty interesting, he'll fit right in. Before that, however, I do want to hammer out some details. I may not have made it clear in the first post, but the biological sciences have advanced very considerably compared to our current understanding. Burn victims, with the right amount of money, can basically get a brand new, better body that's almost impossible to tell is lab grown. That part of his history will have to change a bit, but I understand if it was originally an aesthetic choice. If you want to keep him looking as-is, there's a couple paths you can take (that I can think of, at least). You could have his body burned so that he doesn't feel as much pain, though there are other ways to go about that, you could note that the doctors also did it to make him a bit more unstable. Maybe the doctors who worked on him didn't bother to fix burn damage left by an earlier incident for lack of funding. There's a lot of possibilities there.

As far as his modifications, I feel like you should make him a bit more powerful. Durable and dangerous he may be, but there's going to be some tough enemies he needs to face down regardless. I don't want you to be wanting in the balance department. The skills section is supposed to cover general "things this character is good at" mostly leaning towards the combat, and social side as those are most relevant. Durk's personality is fine, I really don't mind that section being short.

Finally your question: I was going to announce it once the IC started, but I might as well now. The fakes are going to be a pool, which I will pick from randomly. Before the first fake goes aggro, I will message all members and ask them how they feel about their character being a fake. This will be between me and the individual player, so no one accidentally or purposefully meta games.

@eklispe if you have any concerns with the character, please chime in~
