Can you explain that one for me, LW? I've been trying to find it but I can't.

4652
Oh boy, how're the gang gonna get out of this one?
...
Actually unless the ropes are uncuttable or something there doesn't seem to be much menace for now.

Alaric is in self control class, being bored as hell. Wondering what the heck was with the dragon girl also.
"Er, what did you pick this class for? If you don't mind me asking."

Never fear, M19 people! Xan's coming to rescue you!


Why are you screaming

For the forseeable future Darren's pretty helpless against any illusions, at least until he learns to better control himself as part of his magic lessons.

Doesn't he have Manipulation of Destruction?

Damn, once he gits gud at using it there's very little he can't formulate a response to.
Yep, it's very much a situation of learning how to control his bullshit. Fortunately for metabalance, that'll take so long to get to the higher levels of stuff that game balance will be preserved.

He's good at asspull, but by no means the king of it.

It can get so much worse.

Ultimately, keeping things balanced so that one player can't shit all over everyone else with a no-limits-fallacy überpower that can't be stopped by anything is more important than portraying things absolutely accurately.
I came to this opinion because I've tried the above before and it just leads to a bunch of 'nuh uh you can't do that' and 'yuh huh I can' back and forth in the OOC thread for a billion pages.' :P
Yeah, but what stops Kiri?
From shitting all over everyone with a no limits fallacy überpower that can't be stopped by anything and fighting it just fuels it more? There's always justification. He can't handle the level of power that would imply without sufficient spiritual purification. He just needs to be older to channel that much. That much emotion overloads his aura and causes him to shut down for a while. Something like that.

In that case, good to meet you, Carl.

Self Control

Darren raises his hand.

I probably should've asked this earlier, but what's your name or title? Can't just call you teacher, I'm not nearly Japanese enough for that.

Also I think that's everyone in class, so ... should we start whatever it is we're going to do? Sorry, not trying to be bossy or anything like that.

I'm not sure if I should be surprised at all that I was completely right about Kev and Rag being the ones to have a dick-measuring contest.

4663
I think he's basing his assumptions off of TA, which this was directly inspired by - which you'll remember amounted to a child soldier factory.

This one seems to have a less disturbing metaplot.

4664
Don't worry, you're far from the only potential nuke we have.

I'm not actively trying to fuck up the social fabric of the RP though, you'll be fine.
