• Went and read some of my old SB vs TCB OOC threads for a lark. It's absolutely amazing how far everybody's come, and some of my decisions back then made me pause and think, 'Wait, I /did/ that?'

    How grossly overpowered is an Ether Liner, by the way?
    Xellos
    Xellos
    Yes. How far everybody's come. A whole week. :V

    Just kidding, I get what you mean.

    Depends on the Ether Liner, in the same way as 'depends on the Servant'.

    In general terms though, scale up a few tiers from Servant with similar nature of power, and no weak link of requiring outside energy, and that's generally what you can expect from Ether Liners.

    Yeesh. Glad I didn't let that guy who applied as one into the game.
    Honestly considering writing up a JoJo Anubis Servant sheet.
    Xellos
    Xellos
    That would be an interesting Servant. What class would you give him?

    Saber, maybe Assassin. Would either have the Master find someone to wield him or use the Master themself either in an emergency or if he thought the Master was useless otherwise.
    Ugh. Horrible cough and sore throat that won't go away. I feel like shit at the moment.

    First thing I did this morning, actually. Hot water impacting the back helps loosen up the mucus.

    In other, completely unrelated news, I finally caved and started playing FGO. First Servant was Yoshitsune. :(
    Xellos
    Xellos
    I saw. That sounds like you should restart the game and try again.
    Question, when, in Fate/Stay Night, Shirou says there's no rules saying imitations can't be better than the originals, isn't that actually a pretty big rule in Nasu that the originals are better?
    Xellos
    Xellos
    Yeah, there is.

    Shirou is just wrong. I mean, yeah, he wins that fight, but not because his cool sounding line was factually correct.
    Huh, I have the power to delete any posts on my profile page now. Even other peoples. That's... new.
    *grin* Guess what, Xellos? you know how Stroheim is working for Irisveil in Wade's Oath Sign? I think there may be a bit _more_ to it than that, considering some questions Wade's asked me regarding the two characters.

    Oh well. I hope I get "kill Kurze" as an objective.

    Good grief Irisviel/Kiritsugu is like an onion, except every layer peeled away is more NO NO WHY STOP

    Xellos
    Well, she does have JustIforgettherestofthename memories, so it's not like she's exactly nine, but it's still as creepy as it comes.
    I don't suppose you'd be interested in playing as Second Owner (and archnemisis of Billy Cash) Rin Tohsaka in This Illusion, would you?
    Xellos
    Xellos
    Not particularly interested, sorry. I go back to school in about three days, and I'm in four reasonably active games with five characters.

    Completely understandable. Just thought I'd ask.
    So is Jolyne the only JoJo from the original universe whose Stand didn't have a time based ability for their arc? I mean Stone Free had the mobius strip thing but that's more space than time. Jotaro, Josuke, and Giorno all had some sort of time ability at one point.
    Xellos
    Xellos
    Joseph, technically. He's a Jojo with a Stand that had no time powers.

    But yeah, she seems to be the only one who didn't mirror the villain through time power in a way.
    Insufficient Dakka
    Insufficient Dakka
    That's why I said "for their arc" :p
    Xellos
    Xellos
    With all due respect, I'd rather not.

    That is looking very heated, with people full of opinions. Opinions that some will feel any who don't share are pure evil. I'd rather stay uninvolved in that particular morality debate.
    Insufficient Dakka
    Insufficient Dakka
    I understand. Could you at least link me to one of your posts where you explain it?
    Xellos
    Xellos
    I think the bit where I explained it the first time got deleted, actually... it was on a profile page conversation.

    Crux of it is, Homura's victory in Rebellion requires Kyubey to volunteer unnecessary information. I shouldn't have to explain why that's OOC. A lot of other actions in it are OOC as hell compared to PMMM
    After watching the Armstrong fights in MGR, do you think Armstrong heard some sort of speech from Snake that let him produce fire the same way Raiden produces lightning?
    Insufficient Dakka
    Insufficient Dakka
    But heat doesn't work that way. It doesn't make pillars of flame burst from out of the ground, it just sort of radiates in all directions. The Senator'd have to have some sort of supernatural abilities like Psycho Mantis or Raiden to manipulate them like that.
    Xellos
    Xellos
    He was /very/ mad.
    Insufficient Dakka
    Insufficient Dakka
    Meh, Raiden's hands got all lightning-y when he was yelling at Armstrong, so maybe anger can make the abilties work after you've already mastered them.
    A plague of OS has overtaken the plague of Nasu. :V

    There has been a Fluttershy toy sitting on top of the community mailbox for the past two days at least. I don't know why it's there.

    I'm in San Diego right now. No idea if it's still there.
    Would you happen to mind if I borrowed your Saber Alter sheet from Surviving Dominaria with some modifications for another RP on SB?
    Blackout
    Blackout
    Yeah.

    I'm actually kind of torn on whether to use Saber because you never know if it's going to turn out to be an epic RP to be remembered, like say both incarnations of the Skyrim RP, or just flop and die like, I dunno, 90% of RPs. If it's the latter, well, I've just wasted a good sheet on a bad RP because I rarely want to recycle my sheets. The enthusiasm just kind of burns out.
    Blackout
    Blackout
    But if it does turn out to be a magnificient RP with a good GM, you don't want to be saddled with anything less than your A-game for the rest of it's duration, like what sort of happened with New Age of Heroes.
    Xellos
    Xellos
    I understand the feeling.

    Super glad I picked Ryouga for Cyreni's TCB. If it had been one of those characters I only really like for a relatively short amount of time, probably wouldn't have stuck with it all this time.
    Back to my very first 'favorite anime character' ever.

    My favourite Ranma character by far.
    Xellos
    Xellos
    That's because he's the best Ranma character. It's why he so easily steps into the protagonist role in fanfic(whenever he's not being demonized).

    Though I like the majority of them. The only ones I don't particularly like are the Kunos, and I can appreciate even them for their insanity.
    Damn, can't believe I missed your birthday. (A very late) Happy Birthday to you!
    Xellos

    Nah, you didn't miss a thing!

    Go back through my status on this. Page four. My birthday goes from May 21 to June 10.

    Happy birthday with...41 minutes till midnight, unless you're in a further timezone in which case happy belated b-day I guess.

    Oh darn, I missed this message. Should have checked my alerts more closely.
    Oh gods above what're its eyes doing?

    Well, it is a pokemon....right? So silly levels of durability and strength aren't that unexpected.

    Still pretty darn cool.
    Xellos
    Xellos
    It's not a Pokemon. It's an Elder Dragon from Monster Hunter.

    ...

    Yes. That goofy looking thing is an /Elder Dragon/.
    Silvan Eldar
    Silvan Eldar
    Ah, never played Monster Hunter, so I just assume things like that are pokemon or random monsters unless told otherwise.
