Superheroes of the Trust Game Thread II

"No," Viridian admits. "It's a glamour. It affects the minds of the people who see it, so they don't show up on mechanical sensors."

"Okay.... Not a huge problem. We may need Mr. Black to shoot off an EMP at the ship, so that they'll have to rely on their own two eyes rather than sensors." she said.

"Can do. I can also follow up with some widespread random intrusions into their unaffected systems. I don't actually have to get any useful hacking done, I just have to make sure they don't trust their computers."
 

"If the illusion is all in their heads, if someone saw the illusion AND looked at sensor screen, would they imagine the appropriate stuff on screen?" Star asks. "But the EMP stuff sounds good."

Ascendant energy beings can go screw themselves. Megan bites her lip to hold back an angry reply. "Whatever, Hope." How many people would be called monsters by their tongue? And I'm not the one who mentioned using a lethal attack, you jumped that conclusion all by yourself. Shows you which way you think.

The Ascended talk was all OOC and not IC as of yet. :)

Hope shook her head. "Alot of illusion is based on belief, which is in part mental manipulation. Machines just don't 'think' the way we do." she looked at the superhero.

"I wasn't asking if it could fool the machine. Just if it could fool person operating it."

"The machine transmits what the person sees. If the machine doesn't sense it, can't look at it, doesn't recognize it, then no. The person doesn't see it. In order for the machine to 'see it' it'd have to be something like a hologram or machine made illusion. Magical illusions, mental effects and glamours, don't usually affect machines, so therefor, they won't affect whoever looks through them."
 

Viridian says, "I could make an illusion of someone's screen showing them the wrong information," to Shooting Star. "But I'd have to be able to see what the control room and sensor screen looked like, so I'd know what to make the image look like. I don't know a spell that just makes them fill in the details themselves. So, if I was watching someone watch a radar screen, I could make them see blips that weren't there. But from here, I couldn't."

"Basically, it's complicated and it's far easier to simply screw up their computers and sensors so they can't be trusted." she grinned at Star. "Magic creates alot more problems than it solves, usually."

"Instead of attacking him right here on his ship we could arrange an ambush. Tell him that the data he gathered is suffiecent to warrent his return and give him the coordinents where he will be recovered. We keep our cover of being his allies and he drops his guard. He also might bring some other technologies that he found that he has in his home base.
