Project Daedalus OOC thread

I know we can just look at eachother's character sheets... but I'd like there to be a reason for me to shout "Jaya, boost me!" or "Tyrone, get behind him and paralyze that gunman!" that makes sense in character... Plus everyone likes to brag now and then...

I think if you re-read the prologue, you'll get a good idea of everyone's powers without looking "at the sheet". For example, here's what you know about Tyrone's powers from the game so far.

1. He can paralyze people. You learned this in the break out, along with what he did with the police officer on the hi-way.

2. He can project a force wave that can damage things. You learned this in the break out, at the same time you learned Jaya can booste powers, when he attacked the robots with his kinetic strike.

3. You know he can run very fast. You just saw this when he zipped up to the van from the mall at breakneck speeds.

4. You know he has a force shield. He used this during the break out to protect he and Jaya.

5. You know he can move objects without touching them, as he just did in the van.

While the extent of these powers aren't fully known to you, you definately have a good idea of what powers he has. I think the same goes for most everyone in the group.

Likewise, it would be known that Sarah is Telekinetic and a Telepath, but how advanced is yet to be learned. What isn't common knowledge, despite popular opinion, is her profession. Only two people actually know Sarah was a cop before all this happened: Jaya and Miguel. How Tyrone knows is beyond me, but I'll let it slide this time.

Since it wasn't stated where he was at the time, I would assume that he was in the van and more than likely missed the superspeed, I assumed that Miguel didn't see it, even though he was in the passager seat. He could have missed your character using the force shield in the heat of battle as well.

I don't think that it would have applied to my character, the shapeshifting is a given but not the mimic power.

My character did make a comment suggesting that you were a cop, maybe he picked up on it.

Just my 2 cents

Jaya's made some subtle hints about Sarah being a cop, too. Tyroc's a smart guy.

Yah, have some faith! Gotta admit, piglette was cute tho... given my original choice of Miss Piggy, I think I came out ahead in the long run!

"However, Miguel, I don't want you to ever copy my power, for any reason. Using my powers...has consequences. I'm prepared to be responsible for them when I use them, but not you, alright? I'm serious."

Isn't that like giving a kid a cookie jar and then telling him not to eat a cookie?

Samantha is fully Mimickable. Aaron is too, but you can only Mimic one Alt. Form at a time, you can't change amongst them like he can (you get no power stunts, remember). Sarah is fully Mimickable (not the guns, of course). Tyrone is not Mimickable at all. Damage save 21 vs DC 16, so no damage trying to Mimic him, I'll let you describe that yourself in the IC thread, Mimic.

That brings up a question, once I mimic someone's power you stated that I automatically assume their form. Am I stuck in that form or can I shapechange to someone else? Like if I mimic Aaron's stone form can I shift to Sarah's form?

Also what is the limit of my shapeshifting? I know I can only take on human form but could I take the form a a child or a baby? what about someone who is 2 to 3 feet taller than I am?

Could I mimic all of Kiro's powers?

You keep the form as long as you Mimic the power. You keep roughly the same mass when shapeshifting, unless you use extra effort. And yeas, you can Mimic all of Kiro's powers.
