    I'm confusing on Ruddyman's powers. I think I'm going to rely on the crystal for a while, at least until something interesting happens. What I'm trying to convey now is his/its ability to randomize powers and give him abilities based upon the need.

    ei, faking his death, controlling his body temperature, escaping with Draco and tricking Dara.

    I'll rely mostly on what he could already do before the change for now. Don't get uptight about being overpowered because the guy is relatively useless as of now. and has different goals from the rest of you.

    Loki and Yoshi are collaborating right now. One of them should be posting soon.
    I will be doing the department store scene by the end of the night.

    Question

    If I have Ruddyman killed off and incubate a different playable character will I still be able to post as reporters or eye witnesses and such until the incubation phase is done? Am I even allowed to incubate a different character?

    Ok Hex, what you're asking is if you can kill off Ruddyman and play a different character? Or are you asking to introduce another and keep Ruddyman?

    I know alota people complained about the hospital and im kinda doing it again with Hex's lair dont worry not making a habit of it just giving him a lair while keeping in line with his character story il avoid any other instances of creation this big.

    Yeah, just don't make a habit of making large things like that.

    Also, @Hex: I won't be allowing two characters in this game. It'd just be too much. If you'd like to kill off Ruddyman, and start with a new character, that's fine. If, at some point, you want to kill off that character and bring Ruddyman back somehow, that's fine too. But I won't be allowing two characters in the game.

    Looking forward to moving the rest of the story forward so I don't have to do anymore craziness.

    Uh, naturemage, is there going to be a second part to that post? I'm still stuck until Monsoon and/or Davinci reply. :(

    Alternatively, I could leave them and have Galatea respond to the sound of the gunfire. But I'd prefer to know if Monsoon or Davinci have any input first.

    I was just going to see what happened. After all, Alica is in the crowd. I will get a post up for Monsoon and DaVinci later tonight.

    Would it be a problem if I went off to investigate? I feel compelled to post something; game's been sitting for too long and I have the itch to post. I could add something in it for Monsoon and/or Davinci if you'd like (just let me know if there's something you want them to say/do). I'd hate to just walk off without some sort of input from them.

    Well, I'm not in the crowd any more. Dara and Alica are going to go do some investigating of their own. :)

    Naturemage, as GM, perhaps you can provide us of a clear over view of the Island. How big is it? what areas are we to frequent? What are the landmarks?

    Guys I got new powers today!
    They're so awesome

    Hmmmm... so when will Dara get Draco's message? Draco and Rudyman's scene carried into the following morning, so does Dara have to wait until tomorrow (game time, not real time) to receive it?

    Yeah...I was thinking about that too. ;)

    We may have to fiddle around with the time difference, or just wait and see what happens. We never know what may be coming up next.

    Hate to say it, but Hex and SpitFyre, you may have to take a break for a while. I'd say you two are about a day ahead of the rest of us.

    EDIT: Bwahahahahaha! Where did he go...?

    It's alright I was planning to for a bit I'm down in Wales this week. Still checking and can post if need be. To my mind I think we are a night ahead it's around early morning in my head. I've just left an opening for Jess to bring me back in when she wants to for now Draco is resting

    Haha, this is going to be exciting!

    And, with the time difference, I think we'll do a few more posts before Dara hears Draco. What her and Alica do together is what's happening during Ruddyman and Draco's craziness. I hope that's okay. We can always do things sooner rather than later if you want. :)

    Dara and Alica were right there with the other heroes, and they didn't ask them to help? lol. oh well. someone has to deal with Mr Mr.
    I may not be on for much of the weekend by the way. It's my year anniversary with my wife, so we're sort of trying to stay off our respective guilty pleasures (writingforums and facebook). May get a post up here and there, but the RPGs usually slow down during the weekends anyway. I'll be posting in a few minutes, and that will probably be it for the weekend until Monday.

    Ok, got Monsoon and DaVinci up. They are in separate posts because I needed to get the individual character traits out for each. (Which is terribly hard to play a serious obsessed superhero and a crazy intelligent, nerdy painter.)

    I will be continuing with Reflect after a few posts. I have a reason to wait.

    Congrats on the anniversary, naturemage. :)

    Is there a way I can free my character up for the weekend? I'm looking for a way to temporarily break up our group, until you get back. How would Monsoon and DaVinci react if the cops tried to apprehend them right now? Would they flee?

    Alternatively, I could have Shoshanna called away to the bombed-out hospital to help with the cleanup. Would Monsoon and/or DaVinci attempt to go with her if that happened or do they have other things to do (such as look for Reflect)?

    Hey YOSHI!!!!! I've got an opening for you. :)
    IF you decide to be the detective to answer the call then Alica and Dara will be waiting outside the apartment.

    @ Jesswrite. If Dara said anything out of character, let me know and I will edit it.

    Hahaha, I just LOVED that, LtW. Totally Dara. :)

    And, congratulations to you and your wife, Nature! I hope you both have a lovely weekend.

    Thanks Jess. I had fun writing that bit. So Yoshi or Loki, (if your still around) message either me or Jess if you want to do a collaboration.
