Funtimes He looks like so much fun And I'm not the only one Who doesn't want to read his will... Boring! Fortuity: Go back to that last part. Funtimes You're a boring meanieface And you make me want to sigh…. I'll just be so freaking random That you want to cry Nathan: I'll join your party! Funtimes (hugging Nathan) Okay, bye! I kind of hope that's what Vasher and Vivenna will do in the sequel. Reader Do you want to hear your secrets? Come sit and have some wine. I'll tell them to everyone that comes, for fun. Your secrets will be mine! I used to work for Koschei, and now, he's dead. Springfield can tell you why! Do you want to hear your secrets? They don't have to be your secrets. Autumn: Go away, Reader.

Edgedancer he/him Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) You guys didn´t even reach the next page. I've just used density because that was the word used on that original wiki page I based the powers off of. It's kinda like closeness of atoms, I my mind. Something like that. Do you two, Voidus and Edgedancer, have any ideas of how Smasher could do what I suggested? I really just want Hawkwing to drop him into a crowd of soldiers, smashing them all. Does his weight/mass actually change? Edited November 20, 2014 by Edgedancer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edgedancer he/him Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 My thoughts exactly. People learned making someone feel guilty from cats, just like earthbenders learned from badgermoles. Do you think someone could see that there is something in the sky over the Dalles from the other side of the river? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I was going to say that evil people don't like shinies, but Lucentia's entire power is conjuring and controlling shinies, while even Lightwards seems to like them deep down. And then there's the fact that canon Epics, like Fortuity, wore as many shiny rings as possible, and Steelheart's energy blasts were also shiny. So….yeah, it seems like just about everyone, secretly or openly, likes shinies. ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he does need a doctor badly. How could she solve the problem? (Well, she might have heard of Koschei but not of his death, so she can torture him a bit until then.) Teleportation combined with Autumn´s directions and some arial surveilance.... just realized that would mean leaving the twins alone for at least a moment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonus points for everyone guessing why I mentioned nail polish. So she can make it sparkle if she wants? I could see someone with her powers using sparklefied nails as an effective distraction, holding her hands up to the sun and using them like little mirrors to temporarily blind an opponent. That, or she just likes color and is a perfectionist when it comes to her appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering he worked for one dictator with shiny powers and a coworker who could both create shinies and resurrect in a burst of shiny shininess his tolerance of shinies keeps him from Complete Monster status. Then again, since even Koschei wore shinies, I'm not sure it means much. Mostly we just need a reply from Arsenal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mailliw73 he/him Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 You guys didn´t even reach the next page. Does his weight/mass actually change? I can't decide. I think his weight would, but it wouldn't be so heavy that he couldn't move. Hmm, well there are workarounds to increase his compressive strength more than his mass increases, if it were just the closeness of the atoms I think that would work, although that would also shrink him a bit and then his weight wouldn't be any different so he'd not get the shockwave. I think Edge and I were agreed that if he lowered his density first to slow his fall he'd be able to survive and if he vastly increased his density/tangibility just as he hit he'd still get a bit of a shockwave. An alternative would be to just increase the density of say his skeleton which is about 15% of the body's mass to maximum and leave the rest of his body (Except for whichever parts actually make contact with the ground, he'd need to increase those too to avoid massive bruises), he'd then be able to survive a fall roughly 6x higher than an ordinary person (Assuming the skeleton was increased to the point where the rest of body mass is negligible comparatively) He'd then still produce a shockwave although only 1/6th of the size as if his whole body had gone dense, still depending how dense he can get it should still be enough. I like that skeleton idea. Only Smasher isn't really very smart in science things, so there wouldn't be this whole explanation, just that his skeleton was increased, but the rest of his body wasn't. Except for whichever parts of his body hit the ground. So, with the shield idea, it'd be him falling from Hawkwing's flight and used the shield held underneath him to help break the fall, he'd increase his skeleton all the way and leave the rest of himself normal. Correct? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobold King he/him Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 Mostly we just need a reply from Arsenal. All right-y. I'll figure out a reply and get something written when I can. I hope to be able to post in The Dalles and Portland this weekend. (Maybe before then. I'd really like to post before then.) Changed my profile picture, by the way. Might change it back, if I get tired of my own pony face smiling smugly at me from the screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not Koschei, though. While I like the way that pony turned out, I don't think I want him that close. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voidus Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 AAAH! CHANGE! TOO MUCH CHANGE! The pictures are all different!!!Oh well. I can't decide. I think his weight would, but it wouldn't be so heavy that he couldn't move. I like that skeleton idea. Only Smasher isn't really very smart in science things, so there wouldn't be this whole explanation, just that his skeleton was increased, but the rest of his body wasn't.

So, with the shield idea, it'd be him falling from Hawkwing's flight and used the shield held underneath him to help break the fall, he'd increase his skeleton all the way and leave the rest of himself normal. Correct? Yup, that's the idea. I think the skeleton thing is simple enough that you don't need to be too science minded to at least try it out so should still be in character. Maybe reference getting some bruises from the early times he tried it when he forgot to reinforce the skin that made contact too? Combined with the shield this should produce a decent shockwave too. I think there'd be a bit of muscle stiffness after any particularly large falls like this, but it wouldn't do any lasting damage, it'd actually probably be the equivalent of a decent workout all over his body so he'd get pretty strong if he did this regularly enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seonid he/him Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 I'm planning a new Paladin post for The Dalles. Should be the second to last one before the timelines sync up.

Edgedancer he/him Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 I like Ms. Sparkle so far (no not that one.) Is she from The Dalles, or has she just arrived in the city? Also, do I need to do a Backtrack post soon? I see her landing strategy was successful. I figured she´s from Dallesport, which if my research doesn´t fail me is another city right across the river, and teleported to the Dalles after noticing something (pigs) in the sky over them. AAAH! CHANGE! TOO MUCH CHANGE! The pictures are all different!!! Oh well. It happens when people start introducing new Epics. I'm planning a new Paladin post for The Dalles. Should be the second to last one before the timelines sync up. Kobold, what would be the best way for Paladin and crew to become involved in the fighting without Arsenal/Vondra/anyone else immediately wanting to kill them? When in doubt do what I did, slaughter their enemy´s forces. Bonus points for said enemies being freaks of nature. Again such a slow day. Contemplate this: 1) The Dalles are currently the weirdest place I have seen outside anime and Backtrack might have to give Lightwards a report of what is going on. 2) If all our jokes turn into canon is there an Epic whose sole power is killing Nighthound? 3)Little girls using secret mind control powers.
