What If? : X-Men-roleplaying game

[Velenne]

Awesome! I'll have him posted tonight when I get back home. Thanks for working with me.

Depends on which persona your asking...

They probably both do, it's just one bakes cakes while the other bakes people...

I wonder which is which?


FYI: There has been documented cases of physical changes with multiple personality disorder. Eye colour, minor changes to the cheekbones structure, hair colour. Obviously not major things but still pretty bizzare stuff.

if I look at what is around at the moment I will probably kiss your feet if you create some kind of close combat fighter/powerhouse/shootist, whatever as long as its not flying and controlling some kind of force to shoot or ensnare people with.

If you want Radiant, I could always go back to the shadow claws (it would fit the whole punk thing better) I like both concepts but there is just something about the claws that seem click with me and considering that the possesion is touch only, he would want to be in close with the bad guys.

choices, choices. This is what I get for contemplating a character idea for too long

The deflection works off her super senses because her body senses the attack (sound, motion, sight, smell) and reacts to defend her on its own, kind of like an external immune system I suppose. That's why I took the automatic extra as well. It shoud take a willfull effort by her to not have this happen, rather than the other way around. Hopefully that explains it.

As for the Thunder Stick. Well, you suggested earlier she'd be a prime candidate for having a gun or some weapon. After simplifying things, I decided you were right. And with getting rid of flight and snare and force field, I could afford something nifty that wasn't lethal necessarily. I could have just called it a blaster, but didn't seem as fun. I started with a nice metal collapsing quarterstaff, and added a few stunts for some utility.

I'll use the simpler super senses build that I just posted. I use that Character Builder excel sheet to do all this, so hopefully it's all added up right.

I think it's pretty safe to assume that Alicia is baking cakes and Mistress Mind is baking people.

You wouldn't happen to have any links to stuff like this? The last time I really read up on the subject they where still uncertain about rather or not it was a true syndrome.

No unfortunately I don't, I read it somewhere but that was some time ago, they are still debating from what I can tell.

If you are interested in this read a book called "When rabbit howls" (it might be this book where I read the above statement from) by Truddi Chase its an autbiography of a woman who was intergrating her personalities back together and what caused her to have mpd in the first place. Most of the book is written by the various personalities.

I should warn you, its a well written book but very disturbing, it centers around the step-father and what he did to her. One of the more milder scenes I recall is when she was bad he used to lower her into a dry well and then procede to drop handfuls of snakes on her, and he wouldn't let her up until she stopped screaming, I think she was around 4 years old at the time.

Mmm...Soylent Green.... and bunt cakes.... winning combination!

Very cool! I did note something’s though, your weight is different in the form is listed as 200 and in the description its 225. That’s a lot of weight for a wide out.

Mimic, cool I shall look for the book... I'm sort of disturbed anyhow so I doubt it will bother me too much.

Calinon, indeed.

Someone told me to take a look at this game, so I'll throw out a character concept and see what happens.



Melville Lundon -- Darkness
School was brutal -- I hated it. Then again, now, I can't stop hearing their screams.

When Melville was 14, a group of other boys cornered him and beat him unconscious. This was a weekly occurrence, but Melville was afraid that if he told someone, the beatings would just get worse.

On March 18, 1973, Melville Lundon ceased to be the victim. Just as he felt himself losing consciousness, he remembered everything about that moment -- the taste of the blood in his mouth, the thrum of the shouts of the other boys, the throbbing bruises and scrapes all over his arms as he tried to protect himself. And then it happened -- the Darkness came over him.

It's kinda like I'm not there when It comes. I know It's there, and It knows I'm here, but we don't talk much to one another. I try to stop it... it's so unrelenting and cold... but... I kinda like it...


The Darkness is how Melville refers to his powers -- not completely under his control, when the Darkness comes over him, Melville becomes cloaked entirely in a palpable darkness, which reaches out and attacks his foes. It bludgeons them mercilessly like cold steel, or saps their life away. While he can call on it at his discretion now, he is generally loath to do so unless absolutelynecessary. Beyond that, Melville Lundon himself is brilliant physician, aided by an X-gene powered intellect.

I hate to be a nuisance, but I was wondering if you had seen this, Radiant -- I posted it yesterday, and you've been posting pretty regularly and I hadn't seen if you thought if it was okay or not. If not, I can sit down and work something else up.

I saw it. So I only posted then I had questions about a character. Data, Tarentula and a few other didn't get a comment either. They all seemed to work like they are.
But just so I have said something about your char, he is more or less in direct competition with Shadow for a place and I will take only one with such powers.
