Superheroes of The Trust OOC Thread (Accepting Alts)

Well, you'd still have to deal with the prospect of nullify and nullifying type fields and having the amulet taken, but if she does run out of meds, she's in the same boat. I was thinking if it more as a contingency, just in case sort of thing. And a kind of peace offering. ;)

Well, my basic thought was that Star's fundamental problem was that she's not immune to her own powers at the point of emission. Her drugs don't really address that at all; they just keep her from inadvertently using an aura-type power and make her other powers easier to control. And maybe some other things; she doesn't care about exactly what they're supposed to do and just takes them. So her meds and the side effect on her big blast aren't related.

At this point, I can't see her being much in favor of a Hope backed plan anyway. She doesn't even want to talk about her powers in front of her.

Also, I figure there's probably some reason why quick, obvious solutions don't work. It's not like nothing was ever tried (although a magical solution might not have come up or been rejected).

Mechanically, a Device instead of a Side Effect (or one that buys off the side effect) would be somewhat expensive.

And I think it would change the nature of the character perhaps too much.
 


Arr, no worries.

If you ever DO decide you want to lessen or buy off the side effect, I'm sure Vi could work up some kind of lasting "protection from plasma" ritual to justify it. :)

Hope and Viridian both know a bit about Hell.

Hope has been to the gates of Hell, but has never passed through. Hell is a prison dimension from which there is rarely any escape, especially for those who do not enter voluntarily.

Magical travel to and from that dimension -- beyond the gates, which themselves are dimensional walls -- is essentially impossible due to wards and the fact that its dimensional walls are far more difficult to breach than other alternate universes, although there are certain places in various dimensions where the barrier is thinner. Beyond the dimensional walls is a powerful force field that keeps the imprisoned in, which is extremely difficult to breach. This field does not effect visitors, but everyone who belongs there, all the way up to the devil himself, is affected.

ooc
So essentially the 'Gates' are the the wards on the dimensional walls given shape and form by the imagination of whoever views them, they look different to everyone, which I assume that both Hope and Viridian are well aware of. So when Hope impaled the Black Viper to them, she was essentially frying his mortal shell on the mystical energy and sending his spirit through.

That's why we needed fire to destroy the Spider Guy right? To destroy his physical body so that they could push his spirit through the temporary gate/interface her spell created. Or something like that. ;)
 


Don't worry, Hope can make Star feel like a heel all by herself. ;)

Though I think they probably need to come to terms with each other soon. They both have baggage that needs to be aired out I think.
 


Lol. Probly. :)

Ooo. How many PP do we get from that previous fight?

We got the main objective.
We got Grey Gunner
We banished the spider demon guy
We trashed a foundry outpost
We got a hair sample from the radiation assassin lady
We lived (with lots of help)

That deserves somethin! ;)
