I vote we call her Headache *head explodes*

*Heh, Heh* I wonder if that is Alicia's personality too, and BS is just trying it out.

You know... That's really not to bad of a name but I don't have the mental blast power so it would probably be better for a different character.

*Heh, Heh* I wonder if that is Alicia's personality too, and BS is just trying it out.

No, Alicia personality isn't anything like this! She very much a team player, but since her psyche was shattered she’s very meek, shy, unsure of herself and comes across as needy.

To be honest its been thrown around by at least one of my DMs that I should come with a warning label. I send a lot of emails, and make a lot of OOC posts, ask questions and probably for some the DMs out their this probably takes up to much of their time. Also I make my decisions based upon what the character would do, which is what your suppose to do, but some seem upset by this.

The way I look at PbP a game is that your there to role-play and not truly game as it takes way to long to game. Combat is important and very much needed but if your looking for a game where your tracking XP or the number of levels you need for your next feat you should probably look for another media for your gaming as this is about "writing" a story in collaboration between the players and the DM/GM. Also as thought that same DM joked about I also know that she would be disappointed if I wasn't in that game and that my fellow DMs are happy to have me as I pay attention I ask questions and I honestly feel I make the game better...

Anyhow I’ve been wrong before so who knows…

I’m I really being a pain because I want my characters background to make sense to the game? (Just rather curious… I know I’m not normal in my thinking as I went to various college websites looking for *just* the right one for Alicia.)

Agreed.


Hands a pen to help out yeah I'm interesting like that but to be honest, I'm as power hungry as the next player, but I'm not much for min and maxing, I don't spend a whole lot of time to see what stacks and what doesn't, all I what is for every character I make to make sense.



I'm not sure what your saying I can have and I’m sorry that you think I'm being unreasonable, a pain or what not. I just want this to make sense.


How did I change her "rules"? The only change I have seen was to her back story and my working around that change so that it makes sense.


Well if Xavier can not unlock it somehow before we see combat she will quickly become scared out of her mind and change into Mistress Mind so hopeful the shovel will not be needed.

to be honest you're a pain.
I'm just too good for this world, I should just let you do what you want instead of bothering at all. Read the very first post of this thread again.
To make it easy I have the important part right here:

Game information:
This game will be set in the Marvel Universe and use the M&M rules.
I will take four to six characters. All characters have to be Mutants and the game will asume that these are the people Charles Xavier called together to be the new X-Men in "Giant Sized X-Men 1". The story will start with them getting sent to Krakoa to save the original X-Men and go on from there. At first it will hold close to the Uncanny X-Men series but the more the characters do different than in the origianal comic books, the more the universe and the future will change, and the stories with them.

So the group will consist of the people Xavier called to go on that mission. If you continue to insist to make your character unsuited to go on that mission.
Well you're perfectly right, Xavier would not send her.
The problem is that the New X-Men will be the mutants who go on that mission so you are trying to write your character out of the game (with a vigour I might ad) and regardless how hard I try I just can't seem to convince you to stop it.*sobs*
Since my head allready exploded a while ago I will just stop it now.

And yes I cast my vote for Headache too

on a completely different topic:
since so many of you are online I'd like to ask a question.
Was my post for Velenne easy to misunderstand? Before I ask him to edit his post I would like to make sure it wasn't my fault. I found my english insufficent on more than one occasion. If there are any problems please tell me and I will try to avoid positng certain style of sentences etc..
Writing in foreign languages isn't allways the most easy thing.
And please DO tell me, it is not as if anyone else could tell me then I make mistakes so it won't get better if no one kicks me every now and then.

to be honest you're a pain.

Hey that's my wife's line! I've given her every gray hair, though she will insist that they are white, on her 23 year old head and trust me its noticeable.

In all honesty no I'm really not trying to be a pain.

I'm just too good for this world,

Probaly true.

So the group will consist of the people Xavier called to go on that mission.

Check. and no problem.

If you continue to insist to make your character unsuited to go on that mission.

Well thats the last thing I'm trying to do... So either the rereading or the crying worked. I think I can have this fixed in an hour or so with slight additions and subtraction in her history.

Since my head allready exploded a while ago I will just stop it now.

I'm sorry... Do you have any aspirin?

And yes I cast my vote for Headache too

You people have no sympathy... Since it seems unanimous and I do plan on working up to mental blasts I think we can christen Alicia Headache.

Anyhow to recap I'll fix my character history and we'll play from there.

Edited.

Please try to read my posts.

Yes sir, I will endeavor to improve my literacy skills, sir.

Was my post for Velenne easy to misunderstand? Before I ask him to edit his post I would like to make sure it wasn't my fault.

To be honest I didn't read it in till after you explained it in the OOC section so my opinion is corrupted. I do known Velenne from another game and he is honestly a great poster and fellow player so I imagine it was a simple mistake.

Now all that said it never dawned on me that English wasn't your first language, and I'll admit English is horribly complex, but also I did notice a few time where I needed to reread an OOC post by you to realize exactly what you where trying to tell me.

Anyhow, it's no big deal, I imagine Velenne needs to edit his post so the game makes more sense and I'm sure that he will have no issue with this.

I didn't know English wasn't your native language!

Your post was clear enough. But if I'd read it too quickly and missed the word "yesterday" I could have easily made the same mistake. Easy to fix though. Just have him bump into other students.... one with fiery red hair and one with a third eyeball

- Brother Shatterstone, why don't you let her keep her powers the way they are but just play it that she is very reluctant to use them (Alica that is.)

That way, she still has her powers but would only really use them when ever Mental Mistress comes out. You kill two birds with one stone, Xavier would still send her on the mission and Alica would seldom, if ever use her powers.

Plus it gives great role-playing, I can see it now:

Shadow: Come on Al, we need some tk here.

Alica: No, I won't do it.

Shadow: DO IT! *threatens with claws*

MM: PUNY WORM HOW DARE YOU THREATEN ME!!!!!

Shadow: *eep*

- Radiant English isn't your first language? Oy, you write better then I do. I can see how it could be read wrong, but that's the beauty of PBP the player and edit past posts.
