I'd suggest getting some basic gear, a bare minimum of efficiency at medium to close range (a hand laser does wonders for one token, and a monorazor doesn't run out of ammo), getting an amp if you really feel like you could use it, and basically sticking to what your character does best. Grate's a technician by trade, IIRC - so have him be that. People aren't only useful on the front lines in the HMRC.))

((What can I do to prepare for being a better technician? Not to mention one who can perform in his currently-employed field of guarding a ship from assorted genetically-engineered thingies?))

((I would insist that you do not touch either. At least not the microwave ones. If you can get a magnetic manipulator, that would be better, not to mention way more useful in technical stuff. If you can't get that, get a cutting torch instead and leave unconventional weapons alone.))

((Noted.))

(I don't know if he thinks it's a bad idea so much as you actually managed to creep the Doctor out. XD)

((That strikes me as indicative of a bad thing in and of itself.))

(That would be a first)

((Hmm....I wonder if he could would turn someone one of the HMRC crazies into a bodysnatcher. Like just a head with tentacles for movement and it crawls up your back and attaches to your head and then you are enslaved.
That would be neat kinda terrifying.))

((FTFY))

((Should I make a Galahad NPC next?))

Wait. We rolled a one and the result was that we lost a 'useless' item and gained soul charge.
Either that roll was for something else, or that staff was infinately more valuable than we realised.

Probably, if we rolled better, we could either disable the trap, or gain the soulcharge without loosing the staff.

Or nudge the chest off the trap or something.

Also.

I feel like resetting all of my characters' romantic relationships except for RichardxCamille. I felt that most of them were too undeveloped to start in the first place, the exception being because they knew each other for a long while.

Selina would be crushed.
And do the "romantic interests" include the AngelxAlistair shipping?

((Mr. Masor threatened the Doc. That was the result. I also believe it was the first time The Doc showed some of his combat prowess. I forget what he went for, but I believe it was some sort of variation on becoming painless. He wanted his nervous system severed, which is stupid.))

((Stupid stupid stupid.))

((My first character was incinerated in the heart of a miniature star he created by accident when he tried to use his manipulator in a way that it was not designed to be used.))

((That sounds awesome. What were you trying to do?))

What did Selina do about the fact that she had multiple counts each of murder and murder with a parahuman ability, plus a count of assault with a parahuman ability, especially with a witness able to identify her? That's the kind of thing that gets you sent to jail if you're lucky.

Selina was hiding out in the slums of [insert city] in total seclusion. She was terrified, broken, and wanted to die. She had no where to go, no one who would believe her... she was just another person every hero was out to get now... she wished she had the courage to kill herself, but she couldn't, wouldn't. She resigned herself to staying in a run down/destroyed building, cold, alone, and without any comfort. She would die out here... but no one would care, no one would mourn, another statistic on a wall of the lost.

Two things.
1. On the bright side, the heroes will have much bigger priorities than the orphan who killed some kids a while back. Like currently-active supervillains.
2. I'm tempted to start with an Endbringer attack, just to collect everyone (and partly to get Selina out of her mood).

Anyways, I've reached a conclusion.
Empiricist, I'm sorry, but I can't come up with a good power right now. And like I said earlier, there were a lot of good applications. So, Scood, good news: You're in! Writing up a description...

((His response is...amusing.))

(( Haha sweet i figured id end up with something like that. )).

((Quick question about the arguable conclusion of the Ballad of Mesor the Moron:))

[The Doctor] moves in a blur, an indistinguishable flicker white and glint of metal, and then he's holding your hand, severed at the wrist. You don't feel a thing, even though you're bleeding profusely. He takes a step forward and shoves the severed appendage into your remaining hand.

((What happened there?))
