Ionian Dreams (Bront Judging)

[SBLOCK=Highbrow]Oops, started typing after CPU's reply and before yours :o

Highbrow thinks Thurston is going to try to use a waveform generator and something to slightly reduce Carrion's size.[/SBLOCK]

(OOC: By the way, on the waveform generator vs temporary hologram, the longterm one would entail switching out one of CPU's alt powers for the mission (I'd suggest one of his two stuns, since he has two). The short duration one would be a use of the Inventor feat)
 

[SBLOCK=OOC]If I use my array to power that, it means three things:
1 - Carrion must stay in a kilometers from me, as all my powers have a range of 1000 meters (kinda concept).
2 - I cannot use any of my array power, as the definition of an array power is that it cannot be use at the same time of any other power in the same array. As my nullify power duplicate a power Gremlin already have, there isn't much problem for that. All other power are attack powers, which mean I will most likely use it in combat, and if we enter combat, there is little chance we will need to hide carrion appearance.
3 - The device doesn't need more than a power 2 Electricity Control. If it need more, I need a power source near me to tap the electricity needed.

My suggestion is to create a battery that could feed that device. When I am unable to tap enough energy, it would start to feed on it. When I can feed more energy than it is needed, it could recharge. When I'll be back home, I,ll suggest a build, and look at teh rules of Invention to tell you how much time it will take to create it. I,ll try to make it X hours, so it can be ready before we go into the airport... but I need to know in how much hours we need to be ready to go and also what rank of electricity control it would be needed to feed such device.[/SBLOCK]

"I can tap in the bioelectricity and the static electricity in the air for lower power device. I can tap into the electricity source a kilometers around me for higher power source, but it cannot be more than a kilometers. While tapping to power that device, I won't be able to use any of my attacking power, as all electricity I use to feed these powers will be directed to the device.

But I have a suggestion, I can create a reasonnable size power source from which the device could use all his energy, and put a captor that I could use to recherage it. That way, we could make sure the device can run without me for some times.

I could take some times with Thurston to devellop something during the night... anyway, i will eb able to sleep in the plane."
 

OOC: No offense, but using a billion plus dollar sizechanging device for a plane trip over to stop a terrorist attack? Thats Government Intelligence for you!
How about we just whip up some image inducers and we slip a crate through airport security. If some encounter happens on the plane. Highbrow can use his communication power and Carrion would miss only a couple rounds of action at best.
 

Griff looks completely lost at all the technical discussion. He sighs. "Its too bad we just can't load everyone into some sort of platform or air-proof tube and just let me fly us in at night. It can't be more than a few thousand pounds, even with equipment." he says off-handidly.

(OOC: Thurston has his own motives--they're never going to let him test this on humans, so this advances his research ;))

"You'd be shot at as a bogey, and even though you almost-certainly wouldn't be shot down, it would raise the wrong suspicions--plus the passport thing they mentioned earlier"
 

"I was going to suggest you take a backup generator anyway in case the mission takes you to somewhere in Turkey where they don't have a good amount of power. It won't have much juice compared to normal, and it'll be makeshift, so it could give at any time, but it'll definitely give you enough of a boost to make it through the plane flight if you also siphon off the plane itself while you're awake. Anything beyond that is just an added bonus in my book."
 

"Just spitballing here, but since Turkey is a NATO nation why doesn't the UN pull some strings and fly him in on a military flight. Then we can pick him up and he can use the image device. In my experience machines just break anyway, and I'd hate to have the mission go gunnysack on the flight in.", Gremlin offers with a slight shrug of the shoulders.

OOC1: I know we are looking for a way to highlight everyone's powers, but I thought I'd have Gremlin offer a simpler plan since he's a very linear thinker.

OOC2: Thanks for the history lesson on AQ activities in Turkey.
 

"Oh, we're not telling the rest of the UN about this mission," Steele explains, "To do that would be to tell Iran, and although it can't be certain that Iran is funding the terrorists, it's incredibly likely since they're behind so many of the others."
