i have an outline of bat boy so far, but im kinda looking for ideas to flesh him out ;-; but first, Jas i was wondering if he could be a foil of sorts to sable? maybe they're similar in personality, but where sable has people she cares about, uses her mind to protect them, he's manipulative and would use anyone to further himself and he works closely w the whitecoats. perhaps for a plot after they escape hes sent by the whitecoats to hunt them down and bring them back, but decides to play with the flock and the whitecoats. sometimes he brings a pack of erasers down on then, sometimes he helps them out him and sable could know each other somehow?? or not know each other at all, and he just catches interest in sable because of her history and the fact that she's someone who actually made it out of the school and finds it fun to mess with her im thinking he might be an antag but more of an anti hero. maybe he works closely with the whitecoats because hes related to a the lead whitecoat or a higher up white coat and is really fueled by internalized bitter anger and some obligation to help him, and could turn to the flocks side if someone got through to his defensive wall of flirty manipulation lmk if you want to scrap / add anything or have a better idea!! honestly im having a hard time thinking of ideas to flesh him out (SORRY THIS WAS LONG)

at this current moment, i don't see the need to add another character so i think he needs to be put on the shelf, kind of like sherlock and kai's potential second character, mateo i think adding him in right now would just make things more complicated than need be
don't scrap him because i think he would be an interesting addition later on, but i just don't have any definitive answers about him and sable
as for the whitecoat thing... rei is already favored by the whitecoats so i'm unsure of allowing you to have another character that's favored when i feel like kai, hoshie, and blue are all kind of just... there lol
i think that will change when we break out but right now it makes me feel bad that every other character has plans made or a really good power / shapeshift ability. and by that point, it would probably be easier for me to decide how i feel about sable and his history (or lack thereof)
i just need to sort out some things to try and make sure everyone is feeling essential
maybe i should just think of some potential plot points for everyone and give people another day to respond to the RP posts yeah, i think i'll do that give me a little time to think about everyone as a whole, then i will give you some definitive answers

Quod Ad Nox Noctiswhat exactly happens when elizabeth puts sherklock and maelstrom together? kaii'm not trying to nag you, just a curious question cx did you still want to make mateo? it's totally cool if not and it's fine with me if you'd like to wait to introduce / make him. Venomi want kelsa to break out of her collar/chain but i'm not sure how to go about that. i think it would add an extra layer of drama if she had to figure out a way to break out while the alarms are going off so she could quickly attempt to gather everyone up. ˏˋ h o s h i e ˎˊi was wondering how you would feel about a plot later on where one of the spies sent by the whitecoats learns of alma's powers. when they find out about it, they realize that they could use her in order to complete experiments on others much easier if they could harness her calming ability. it would basically eliminate the need to use sedatives which can change the data. so during each battle or during nights, these spies always make an attempt to capture her. it's up to you if they ever succeed and all that.

- ; heyo~ that sounds really interesting cas! i think it would be really cool to play it out, so it's a-okay with me! i can't help but think that alma would totally be in a princess peach-esqe position though, as she'll keep getting kidnapped all the time lol 😆
- ; but more seriously, i think she and the group would be able to prevent the few first attempts on her, so perhaps the best way to capture her is with someone she would trust! such as sherlock for example, but that's up to fox + their feelings about the idea~ or whatever spy is sent for her could probably just work to gain her trust before betraying her and snatching her away from the group~ i'm sure it'll all work out when we start the plot, and it's always good to come up with some different ideas of course ^^

I actually have an outline for Sherlock's introduction for whenever you see fit to introduce him, Cas~
And as for your question- In what context? Like just being in the same vicinity, or pairing them up with a goal? There's a bit of a difference in their dynamics for each. Maelstrom likes Sherlock, but at the same time he's smart enough to know that Sherlock is shady and so occasionally behaves in a borderline antagonistic fashion. Kind of in the spirit of a cat playing with its food- He likes to threaten and bat him around and Sherlock generally tries to stay out of his way unless absolutely necessary. If they need to talk, he'll do it from like, five feet away. But unlike Rei(?), I imagine that they've had a few test teamups in the past and know how to work together when need be. Mael would still listen to Sable better, as he trusts her more. When Sherlock gives him advice he can take or leave it.
Alma as Princess Peach~ xj That would be very bad for Mael's health. And sure, I'm up for Sherlock being the one to trick her~ He'd feel very conflicted about it though, because 'oh no she's too nice!' But he might succeed. At first.

Ah you asked what exactly happens...^^' Well context importance remains, but it also depends on Mael's drugged mental state. I think he'd generally be happy because Sherlock is kind of his first 'friend' and he's secretly rather relieved that his status means he's unlikely to be killed or too badly damaged. Mael is also a puppy so he'll probably glomp him and then check to make sure he's okay before he starts antagonizing him. Sherlock is incredibly patient and so simply lets this happen.
Also! Can I say that I love how much consideration and attention to detail you're putting into this? ^^ It's really awesome and I'm glad I managed to find a spot in your Roleplay~

Also also! I managed to find some candidates for Mael's power:
Damage Amplification: Jaguars are the big cats' One Hit Killers- it's literally what their name means~ So I was thinking his power could be to worsen any injuries/damage he inflicts, even small ones? Still working out the mechanics ^^;
Strength Concentration: Basically like Izuku- my son- in which he can greatly enhance one part of his body and Texas Smash some Erasers~ As well as reduce the damage dealt to that area. The drawbacks would be similar, however. Jaguars sneak around because they don't have a lot of stamina, so Mael would only be able to do this for so long before he starts weakening. The upside is that it doubles as concussive force so that he isn't limited to close combat.
Tactile Telekinesis: My favorite but also my go to ^^' This one probably suits him best though. This would allow him to cover his body in a personal telekinetic field that greatly enhances his strength & durability, as well as giving him a kind of ESP in which he can sense things around him by touching a wall/the ground, or just feeling it in the air if within a certain radius. Like the above, it will have a time limit however, though it might shrink as he grows stronger, he still can't maintain it indefinitely. It's also limited to touch and can be broken by, I'd say, high volts of electricity and possibly repeated physical trauma.
The pro to all these powers would perhaps be Maelstrom's natural aptitude- It doesn't take him long to figure them out because he's secretly- deep down- not actually a complete jockbrain and is very very intuitive when it comes to what he does best. The con would be his being so instinctive that he might activate them unconsciously, therefore tiring himself out faster. Someone could toss something for him to catch and he gets excited and utterly obliterates it. Mael has zero (0) chill.
Sherlock's power- if he gets one?- has already been decided~
Sherlock's power is loosely referred to as 'Networking', a few of its uses including: •Telepathy, and the ability to broadcast thoughts, senses, memories, ideas, etc to others within a certain radius of himself, though he can reach farther if he 'pings' off of a number of minds on his way to his target.
•Illusions, or rather the ability to make others see what he imprints upon their minds.
•Projecting, the ability to make concrete thoughts visible to everyone around him. An example being making a 3D blueprint that he can interact with, or even connecting with the mind of someone else and projecting what they see.
Flaw: Networking continuously can not only put a strain on his mind, but that of his senses as well. Sensory overloads result in his mind or body shutting down, with a debilitating migraine and 'glitches' preceding it. In addition, his ability is difficult to turn off entirely, which is why he covers his stronger eye or wears specially made glasses to limit the visual information he takes in. He must also be making eye contact with whoever he wishes to apply his projections/illusions to. Telepathy can work even without eye contact as long as he's made it previously, but is limited by distance.
This is a power I simply ripped off another of my characters because I thought it would fit- So I'm open to nerfing or even changing it entirely if you feel it's too much, Cas!

Hoshie, that sounds all good by me~
Fox, I think that answers my basic question. I just wanted to know if they were more friends or enemies. Also, Sherlock should probably have at least one interaction with Alma before we start the break out sequence. So if it's alright with you and Hoshie, after Sable mentions the break out, when the next morning comes, Alma is taken to do something with Sherlock. Maelstrom and anyone else you two feel fit can join in on that as well. During this time, Galen and Barin will be unavailable though because there's some plans for them. r i p. So anyone except those two can be involved. Also, I will quote and add my thoughts to each power in a bit here.
To create back story, Sable could either be thrown into something with whichever experiments are left in the room. I could use Johnathon again, but Dr. Estrella will be busy with Galen and Barin.
Kai, no problem <3 I'm glad to hear that cx
Blue, I meant she needs to get free so she can free everyone else. I think I'll have Galen drop some little things like paperclips and bobbypins he manages to steal. And every night after the lights go out, she can start trying to open the collar around her neck. Beyond that, I was more expecting Sable to lead the way once they get out of the school. She has extensive contact with the whitecoats and knows what'd be nearby.

I think this one would be useful more if he was always alone or, I guess, if everyone wants him to be a meat shield xD I might ask you to nerf the ESP side and let either Kelsa or Genevieve have that since I believe that power would make more sense for their roles.

That way his plans can sometimes be thwarted and add another layer of drama.•Illusions, or rather the ability to make others see what he imprints upon their minds. •Projecting, the ability to make concrete thoughts visible to everyone around him.

- ; i agree with sherlock and alma interacting! i was thinking, since their experiment numbers are so close together (alma being 114 and lock being 113) should they perhaps recognize each other/find each other familiar during the interaction? since they might have been contained near one another at some point of their lives! or they can just start from scratch too, whichever is totally fine with me~ - ; i think mael would be a good addition, as long as fox is okay with writing for both of them! if not, then rei is very much welcome to come along with~
- ; cas, do you have anything specific you'd like sherlock + alma to do? like if they have a certain trial they'll have to do together or anything? i was just wondering! if not then i'm sure fox and i will be able to brainstorm what to do~

I didnt really Hoshie. Maybe they will be given some sort of puzzle. I can try to come up with something and act as the lead whitecoat there.
We could be testing their teamwork ability. Maybe Elizabeth wants to see how Sherlock would respond to an experiment that's quieter and more submissive than Maelstrom?

Jas That makes sense~ I didn't have much for it anyway. ^^' Hm, I'm not sure what you mean in regards to it being more useful if he's always alone? Cx And it really isn't a meat shield type power! It's meant to augment his combat abilities so he can fight harder and handle more than the norm- His telekinesis doubles as a shield and gives him strength that wouldn't negatively affect his physical body. Strength Concentration was only a close second because I wanted to be more creative than 'super strength' for a fighter, haha~ The ESP side comes from him being a 'hunter', but you're right in that it would make more sense for a scout, so- kai you're welcome to take that aspect of his power, if you'd like~ I imagine that it'd really suit Gen. ^^ Of course~ That power comes from a character in a different world so not every aspect will fit quite the same. Sherlock will have telepathy and illusions centered around eye contact, that good~? As for Sherlock & Alma- I agree as well! That'd be a good basis for their relationship and what's to come. And I do feel as if they'd know each other even in passing due to their numbering, but it's up to Cas. I don't mind, I'd have fun writing them both xj

Oops I forgot to add that maybe they grew up together for the first several years? I think it would make sense for a few of the experiments to have been childhood friends

Post by Quod Ad Nox Noctis on Jul 13, 2018 23:22:42 GMT -5
Do you mean the experiments close in # or Sherlock and Alma in particular? Because for Sherlock, if he grew up with Alma/befriended her he's entirely unlikely to betray her for the whitecoats. But if they only knew each other as acquaintances when they were children then it'd only be a difficult task.

- ; that's alright cas!! i was just wondering if you had anything in mind for them but it's totally okay if you didn't~ i think a sort of puzzle that requires teamwork would be fine! that would allow lock and alma to reconnect cx
- ; it would be very cute if they were childhood friends~ perhaps around their early teens (ex. around 11-14 years old) they were separated and sent off to different scientists, and haven't seen each other since? as long as fox is okay with it, it's a-okay with me too~
edit; fox, you're right! then it must be better to instead have them settled as acquaintances, rather then close friends! maybe they'll instead vaguely remember one another from when they were younger?

- ; okay but how about an alternative universe where lock and alma were childhood friends and had cute nicknames for one another?? lock probably would call her 'almie' and alma would call him 'lockie' ,,,,, (i'm sorry, the "childhood friends" cliche is always my fave XD) perhaps one day they will be good friends~
