Mckeedee123 he/him Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) Except that it wouldn't exactly make sense for an Epic to support an vigilante like that. I just think the idea is fun. If someone were to do a Reckoners Batman/Arrow they'd need cool gadgets, and I think the powerset is weak enough that he wouldn't be too affected by the corruption.

You mean like Refractionary, who killed people and innocent bystanders as colateral for being cut in trafic? Minor Epics are still sociopaths.

Minor Epics are still sociopaths. Maybe more like Curveball, who was more of an unrepentant chull than a full-blown sociopath. That would make this Epic's power set effectively useless, though….so it might just be more efficient to make this minor Epic a vanilla after all.

Mestiv he/him Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 I don't think that this new epic wouldn't fit in Corvallis. After all the camera hijacking would play nice against Jumpdrive surveilance. Whats more he/she may have vanity issues and try to steal Queens spotlight. In effect making him/her not really a threat but a serious inconvinience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiver he/him Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) Hmm. So, I was thinking; the 'web chat' thing Edgedancer said might work. I was thinking a little more -and while I'm worried they might be like Tia- that character concept might work with the vigilante concept. I'm thinking like... Oracle/Batman, an epic in a safe house relaying information to a guy on the ground, setting up the posters and stuff. So...instead of vigilante, more like...a villainous henchman? And hey, a minor distraction role is fine with me! Doubt I could keep up with you guys crazy amount of posting...

Would the transmission be to only one specific device? Otherwise the henchman would be kind of in the open, proclaiming their presence.

At least they were only trying to break into Corvallis and not let's say the MoNA, the people there a a tinsy bit more sensitive to insults. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobold King he/him Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 By the way Kobold, did you look into the gothic lolita stlye for Sam? I did. Knowing so utterly little about gothic fashion, I begin to question my idea of adopting a gothic character. A few of the sites I visited mentioned that the lolita fashion is rather time-consuming to maintain though, so I imagine she'd stick to more simple outfits. Black shirt, black skirt, maybe stockings if it was cold enough. At least they were only trying to break into Corvallis and not let's say the MoNA, the people there a a tinsy bit more sensitive to insults. How dare you accuse Lucentia of being sexist!

Nighthound: Why did you kill that intruder? I wanted to interrogate him. Lucentia: That meanie hurt my feelings. Lightwards: And he also hurt my skin.

Well, we are talking about what Funtimes would put on her. Lucentia isn't sexist, she's a Slontz to (almost) everyone equally. Nighthound: Why did you kill that intruder? I wanted to interrogate him. Lucentia: That meanie hurt my feelings. Lightwards: And he also hurt my skin. Funtimes: And he has bad hair. Nighthound: You bunch of big whiners. MoNA...? Anyway, uh...

I'd guess attention seeking gladiators or maybe spectators for the colloseum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, probably female... ...though given this groups MLP background, I'm tempted to make Sentry a guy named Brad who has blue hair, a leather jacket, and plays guitar. Evil!Flash Sentry!

Well, I don't know what Funtimes would think of that, but Sam wouldn't object outright for fear of risking her ire. Do you just really want to see Sam in gothic lolita attire?
