Game idea : Shadow of Death (forum rpg)

[Mytical]

Keep in mind that Colt has no warning of what is going on. The perception filter they have is interfering with this investigation. Steel doesn't provide any special vision..though chances are the 'worm' would just bounce off of it.

[Mytical]

Since they've never experienced a death, you have quite a crowd around. They are a respectful distance from you, and cloaked/hooded, but they are there.

[Ghel]

One more question (hopefully only one lol): How many of the natives are around? Is it just Dawn and the, erm, still-breathing corpse?

[Mytical]

Hard to describe (for me) but the angle is one that MOST humanoid bodies would not be able to do naturally.

As for the wings would be kind of like This

[Ghel]

Iiiinteresting....

What do you mean that the body's laying at a strange angle?

And what kind of wings? (Not that it's important, just curious.) Reminds me of the Vorlons from Babylon 5.

[Mytical]

Your characters would have a very strong compulsion to do whatever Utopians told you to, or asked you to do.

If it is against your morals, you could resist and not do it, but it would be difficult. If it was something that you would not normally be against, you would find yourself doing it. So if one of them told you to jump from a high point you would have a chance to say no, but if one told you to say stand in a certain spot you wouldn't UNLESS your life became endangered by doing so.

[Ghel]

If Strongarm doesn't respond to Sapputiyok's comment, then xe's just going to follow Colt through the portal.

[Mytical]

Yes Strongarm thinks of Dawn like a daughter, though the two are obviously not related. He is very protective of her. Dawn seems to think of Strongarm as a father figure also. ((Even if she could squash him like a bug ))

[Ghel]

Sure, sure.

I'm going to wait to post anything more IC until Strongarm and/or Dawn catch Colt up on the situation.

[Mytical]

Steel would cover from the neck down except when not in normal form. All the other forms cover from head to toe. However, in normal mode you can chose to make it appear as normal clothing (or parts of it if you wish)

As for the hesitation for your character Ghel, I can understand it, but won't suggest either course of action.

[Ghel]

Sapputiyok hesitates before responding, so Colt's entrance interrupts before xe can respond.

I'm trying to avoid using an omniscient voice in the IC thread, so I'll post Sapputiyok's thoughts in that moment of hesitation here: Xe has had xer mind closed off to the sixth sense since before entering the core. Xe considered opening that sense to see what Dawn is hiding under that cloak and hood. But then xe thought that whatever it is, Dawn is hiding it from the vision of everyone else in the Nexus, too. So it would be rude, and possibly even dangerous, for Sapputiyok to "see" Dawn with xer powers.

That curiosity will probably grow as Sapputiyok learns more.

I fudged, I know, but without much to go on, I went with what I figured would work. If Steel replaces clothing or if he's like regular over-your-clothing armor, I need to know, please.

[Mytical]

Even Dawn is not perfect . Yes her calling Ghel's character her was meant..to show that there are things even they do not understand.

[Mytical]

Sapputiyok will have seen most if not all of the Dimensions that death has currently crossed to. She might not know which dimensions they are, but likely they will be close by each other. Goldie would be able to at least come close if given a description.

As for Strongarm he is more like This with dark military style haircut.

[Tyg3rW01f]

is it bad that I keep seeing Strongarm as Robert Stack from Unsolved Mysteries?
