Yeah...? Maybe. What do you need help with?

Andraus 01-24-2015 08:48 PM

His overall powers. He's a Spirit (Not a demon) of Anger. Obviously, his powers would be augmented from Rage, which could be a benefit in combat, but I'm trying to play them down a bit, so he's not 'too' powerful.

Kat Dakuu 01-24-2015 10:14 PM

Yeah? Sounds interesting though something suited best for a video game than fiction writing. Are you looking for help keeping him from being a god type character?

Hello everyone and tonight it's quite online

Kat Dakuu 01-25-2015 03:52 AM

Yes, I've been out pretty much since I woke up.

sailor star rainbow 01-25-2015 10:20 PM

I hope everyone is doing well today

Kat Dakuu 01-25-2015 10:25 PM

I'm alright. Still on the tail end of a cold. How are you?

sailor star rainbow 01-25-2015 10:29 PM

I am doing good went to the store with my mom. to get out of the house came back now on here. I hope you can get rid of that cold soon Kat.

Andraus 01-25-2015 11:24 PM

Hope you guys get better.

But yea, I want to keep his powers to a level. I'm a good story teller, and with the help of a couple of friends, I've made him a decent character, with a good story.

His belief stems from the fact that, he believes god has abandoned his fellow spirits, and shows favoritism on a race that manipulates his kind (via necromancy, corruption, binding, summoning, etc). This has transformed him into a spirit of pure anger., granting him powers over the most common, and most powerful, of human emotions. This makes him extraordinarily powerful, but not invincible. His rage can be as much of a crutch, as a benefit.

For example, one of his powers is 'Penance stare'. It's a benefit, as well as a hindrance. He can stare into the eyes of an opponent, and basically cause physical harm to them. However, the effect is quite confusing. While it causes physical damage, they do not feel it. All the pain they 'should' feel, he feels multiplied. For more powerful creatures, they would most likely get a nose-bleed, he would feel like he was struck with a metal bat.

Onto attributes as a spirit of anger, pain can cause his anger to increase, thus increasing his overall power, but again, it's a problem. The angrier he gets, the more powerful he becomes, the less strategic he becomes. He becomes more prone to making mistakes, causing injury to himself, and falling into traps more often.

His powers basically balance themselves out.

Now, that's not to say he's an overall cruel and ruthless person, it's just there's little to no room in his heart for mercy. He hates humanity, but he will not let those that cannot fight for themselves simply suffer. He's also a healer, but again, this has it's drawbacks- Every wound he heals, he takes it on himself. The pain caused on him is tremendous, but he continues to do so. Not a bad person, but extremely misguided.

Kat Dakuu 01-25-2015 11:31 PM

Hopefully since I have a job interview tomorrow, Star.

Andraus: Feels like you've thought about it a lot. But if the penance stare hurts him more than his opponent, doesn't it also have no point? Why use it? The balance out of drawbacks to power is good. That's how it should be. Doesn't sound like he's too powerful if there's a price. If a character isn't all good sides to their power and happy with it, it's fine.
But still sounds exactly like a video game. It's not for a novel is it?

Andraus 01-25-2015 11:37 PM

It depends on the mental fortitude of his opponent. If they have a weak mental fortitude, they can easily suffer severe gashes bruises, and possibly broken bones.

It isn't. My characters for my novel are not like this. He's gonna be a character I use for my roleplay.

Kat Dakuu 01-26-2015 12:03 AM

You write your rps like a video game?

sailor star rainbow 01-26-2015 12:12 AM

Good luck with that job interview then

Kat Dakuu 01-26-2015 12:30 AM

Thanks. I probably need it.

sailor star rainbow 01-26-2015 12:49 AM

Welcome its the least I can say to you. what sort of job is it? that you are going for tomorrow?

Kat Dakuu 01-26-2015 05:12 PM

It was Starbucks. I think the interview went well. :3

Andraus 01-27-2015 12:51 AM

I Don't think I set my characters up that way, it's just the way I've always set them up. Aiden Motori is my most recently made, but I think I've put quite a bit of tweaking into his design. Overall character image was done by momochan: but we all discussed the power things.

Kat Dakuu 01-27-2015 01:10 AM

Well that's cool that you did it a bit with friends. It's the attack system and almost statistics for what's powerful and weak against what that reads as game design.

sailor star rainbow 01-27-2015 06:31 AM

Aw starbucks has some good coffee. hot and cold ones I like some of there bake goods at times.

Kat Dakuu 01-27-2015 05:52 PM

I don't go there often since it's so expensive, but I like coffee a lot.

sailor star rainbow 01-28-2015 12:45 AM

Same here I rarely go to one by my sister's house. it's the close one by me unless I go to the mall of Louisiana. I would love to learn how make a yummy frappuccino. so I would not have to pay a high price for one.

Kat Dakuu 01-28-2015 01:32 AM

I looked up how to make a chai tea latte before, but I'm too lazy for it. I'm sure I'll rack up a lot of calories if I get this job. Hopefully.

sailor star rainbow 01-28-2015 01:47 AM

I don't have blender so I am not buying one. are get the stuff unless mom lets me use her fancy one. as long she dose not mind the coffee smell. I do hope you get the job Kat-chan

Kat Dakuu 01-28-2015 02:18 AM

yeah. We have a blender somewhere or so my mom says. I've never seen it. There are plenty of coffee drinks you can make without one though.

sailor star rainbow 01-28-2015 04:11 AM

Yeah that is true
