Forum Guidelines
I was able to finish off that story that LW posted.You mean You At Final Boss?
I now want a forum game where there are a few players who are standard and just standard, and all the other players are OP people who act like utter dicks, and watch as the OP people crumble thanks to their hubris.
((Ah.((Who the hell is Zen?))((xAN, BUT NOT REMEMBERED RIGHT.))

Again, what I'm here for.Dude, this kind of thing happens to me all the time in FG&RP. They make you inert to prevent you from fucking up creation, but it inevitably turns out to you being the subtle driving force behind evil plots and such.The inert part isn't actually the problem. The problem is that my character's personality is magically changed, and has been relieved of the ability to make choices, now having to be purely good. The other problem is that I am now a table that thinks, but has no way of affecting the world, mentally or physically. If those weren't true, I wouldn't be angry, and I would have a way to proceed.
What I'm saying is, while I may not be able to get rid of your tableness, I can alleviate it a bit.
Well, thinking over the effects of Tantiy's curse, I have determined the following:Hey, remember what I said about Raven being here to fuck all the plans up?
1. It removes my power of choice. Anything I theoretically might do would be the opposite of my actions, defined by the GM's will as to what said opposite is.
2. It removes my ability to use my power. This is obvious, as it is stated in the action.
3. It removes my ability to roleplay, because I no longer have the ability to do what defines a god, and my character is forcibly removed from the one I created.
4. It removes my ability to remove the curse, as that would both require powers I can no longer access, and its removal would not be beneficial in any case.
5. If I ever am able to do anything again, all my creations will have fallen without my guidance, and I will likely have either been usurped into oblivion first or the game will have died.
All together, I likely will not be posting here again. While some of the effects of the effects of the curse, with a GM willing to bend the rules set forth by Tantiy quite a bit, would be surpassable and allow me to continue, the combination makes my character utterly and completely unsalvageable. In a different game, with a different play environment, in a game where only some of the above are true, I might be able to continue, but that is definitively not this game. So, in short, farewell. While I am still in the game, I will cease any commitment to it indefinitely. Sorry, I can't do anything here.
Which one was that?Spoiler: Spoiler for Pacific Rim (click to show/hide)
True, but his parts just detached from one another, not actually got broken.Good point. However, a new weakness reveals itself: the Giant falls apart quite easily compared to Jaegers or kaijuu. While he seems nearly invulnerable to bullets, a simple impact from a train was enough to break him into a dozen parts. Imagine what Knifehead could do - bear in mind, this kaijuu ripped Gipsy Danger a new one and Gipsy later survived a fall from the upper atmosphere mostly unscathed. Unless IG's combat form is much tougher, anyway.True, though he survived a nuke to the face, which they notably didn't.Assuming he has a chance to snipe. Dem kaijuu seem to love sneak attacks and are surprisingly good at them.Man, I'd like to see the Iron Giant (in full combat mode, of course) go up against a couple of PR kaijuu. Assuming, at least, the IG had no compunctions about killing giant monsters.I'm guessing that with his 'go away' hand cannon and whatever that thing in his chest was, he snipes them from long range.
