Giving waitlisted people the ability to murder non-responsive players was a great idea. Need to do that more often.

Well, None's super-complicated mind merge failed, so that's what happened. If you're saying that my character's ineptibility to control his own power will kill him, thanks for the warning. I might decide on something a bit more original than DBZ in the end though, since we already have one character using a force from a liscensed universe.

The usual aplication challenge then. Figure yourself three spells.

(The thing that I was after was not in the forest. It was on the tile I was on last turn.)

((Oh damn. Messed up a bit then. Was fairly certain all of those were made in the forest. But a bit too much uses this to easily retcon, so I'll just say that your current position is there because you did not want to stop running with dragon on your hells and went to the forrest. Since you rolled 6 SPD. ))

Alright, I've decided not to go for DBZ character, and instead go for something else. May need power restrictions, namely when working together with Harden to control space-time, obviously.

((Dang, one of my affinity ideas was Time Speed- that eliminates some versatility, but deals with the problem of time travel. About time travel- nothing can travel against time's flow. The flow can be stopped, slowed, quickened, or split, but it cannot be reversed. So you can time travel into the future... in which case you're out for a certain number of turns... but not into the past.))

((Idea: when a player dies, the shards generated by their death is the number of affinities they have times 5.))

My idea was that though true time travel could not be achieved (except for perhaps phasing something a turn or two into the future) but that objects could be shifted to an earlier (or later) state on the time line, potentially allowing for "time healing" or "time aging." The farther you go the more power you need, so it's impractical to try to kill people with it, but you can potentially remove enchantments, grow plants, that kind of thing. And no, you can't revive creatures with that, the body will reverse back to its original state but with no soul, which means it just "dies" again.

Also, I'll take Harden's reaction to The Doctor's appearance as a joke, since characters aren't able to talk to those outside of the arena, as far as I've seen (and because you were bashing Doctor Who). Unless some interesting backstory is going to come in that makes him inherently hate time users.

New color, this good?

First action as time mage: create two time essences. If anything of a dragon is seen, run in the EXACT OPPOSITE DIRECTION.

So it ends up being kinda like life/death, but time based, not life/death based, and requiring a significant amount of power, with more power required the farther back you need to go.

Oh, and here's my color (beige on navy glow) if that's not too similar to someone else's.
The forgotten beast Harden has come! A great-eared humanoid monstrosity.Its disgusting ears squirm and fidget. Beware its deady spatial powers!
((getting real bored here.Luckboys color is similar.))

Well, according to that definition, I cannot accelerate or decelerate the flow of time, I can only make things move faster or slower as if effected by time magic. Basically I'm casting magic that, whatever it is, looks like time magic.

My explanation of this is that I am manipulating something's current status in the timestream, taking its state from the past/future and overwriting the one in the present (future is undetermined so that can be quite versatile). (Note that this is time, not space, so the object does not move to its previous position. Otherwise I could simply will someone's head right off.) But if the general consensus is against this kind of move then I'm fine with that.
