I still maintain that Bulwark/Chatroom/Steadfast is a great 7 tolerance build in this vein and has a chance for the psychic defense idea people are interested in through Bulwark + Clairvoyance. No teleporter but I do think this is arguably a more stable type of Chatroom build over a Memoria/Mr. Hunch combo one.

Though I will have some bias over having an interest in Red Huntress + Memoria assassin style build as another reason for not wanting Memoria as part of it.
I can understand that. But were gonna be on a big Rescue Mission for Yara and Teleporter makes that easier. So I'm sticking with a Memoria plan. We can give that to one of our new candidates though.

Also more Importantly we cant buff John to 7 unless we dont want him on the Demon Flames mission line which QM confirmed he changes.
 
You know, I was looking at our DNA profiles again and can I just say how impressive Steadfast is now that we've seen what 2 metahumans at the top of their destructive power can do?

Steadfast was literally invincible and explicitly could not be harmed at all. He had the greatest form of it in human history. He couldn't even drown, suffocate, or starve. Scarlet Maturity could punch him at full force, and while he would be sent flying, he'd be fine though his clothes probably would get vaporized in the process. Black Swan could hit him with the relativistic ram and he'd be fine. King could try to disassemble his atoms and they simply wouldn't.

Could Catch-22 even reality warp him away? At the peak of their power with all 22, maybe.

All that and the dude was only Potency 2.

I forget-it was Yazmin who, if we had selected, would have had Opale on her side on turn start, right? And Ophelie would have been in a coma?

How would that have affected this mission? Would Opale still have been in eggmode until this mission was done? Would Gwen still be bitchy even though her younger sister was alive? Would Mendicant have been able to wake Ophelie up and have her join us, too?
 
Thinking over some ideas for 6 cost which would ideally be decent and use Memoria or Chatroom as a core.

Memoria/Chatroom/Hunch does work if going full support with no durability. Just that the no durability with his base low hit seems a little risky inherently given Chatroom's range limitations and Memoria powers presumably needing to get close to teleport someone out. Depends on the reaction speed maybe?

Chatroom/Bulwark/+1 {Hunch/Soldier X/Millions} works for battlefield support with either a greater durability focus, Energy Manipulation focus, or Clairvoyance tag focus. Theoretically swapping Chatroom for Memoria would allow for a similar type of build as well.

Memoria with Daggermaw/Sewer Rat/Multiplex could be a build with secondary tag focii of transformation and enhanced senses, with some side benefits with shrinking and defense, might be stepping on Handyman's toes a bit though? Though this almost feels like its an Espionage/Ops boosting build primarily while the other two core build types might have a higher Ops focus?

No thats towarri her Perks were Hiver as ally and Automne in coma.

Having auto intimidate checks and some knowledge about yhe conspiracy
 
Okay, wrong character, but the questions still apply. I guess I assumed the social character would get an extra early ally.

...Towarri was the only character who could salvage their romantic partner of choice, huh? Yazmin and Nora were mutually exclusive from each other, and Rakeem was dead for Leizi.
 
Reading the update as it goes on made me go from "Yeah, kick his ass BS!" to "what the fuck is going on??? What is this conspiracy against Justice Unlimited?"

They also presented our high tolerance candidates later at that update. First one I'm guessing is our Magical Girl. Second one I'm dead certain is Yara; I think daddy dearest is slowly catching on what happened to Uiara's inheritance and is about to make a pro-father move (sarcasm). Third I don't know much about but seems like he's connected to what's going on in Wonderland.

I don't know if he's that strong, goldnine still killed him. The invulnerability was still limited in some way. Either that, or a metahuman with raw goldnine manipulation would actually be the most potent metahuman killer to exist, more so than any amount of esoteric or biggaton powers. They would be Apiary on steroids, and an instant war with R-Train.

On the plus side, we actually know his deal now, and... Well, yeah, EXCEED-BEYOND is really the only thing that has even an outside chance of stopping him, and that assumes that he can't just shift his focus to someone he's boosted and rebuild his body out of them like a chestburster.
Emotional or mind control still could work too, as should teleporting him to the other end of a galaxy.
 
Idle random voter question: Does SM read as a sadist, a masochist, or both to you all?
Neither. He's obsessed with becoming strong for one reason or another, probably a Social Darwinist that believes in might-makes-right like Faust/Crown-over-Moon which is also a common trope for shonen villains.

Far as story themes go, he represents the question of "Is a hero's worth measured by how many people he saves, how successful he is at defeating villains, and how many biggatons he can output?"
 
"Do not think space will be the end of me!" he roars, "You're not the first to try!"
*pointing and laughing* "lil Johnnymurder pee-pants just admitted he can't regenerate faster than he can suffocate! What a loser!"
". . . was I hitting the wrong part of you this whole time?" Scarlet Maturity says in genuine disbelief, "You truly are a pest. What's inside of you better be worth the effort."
ah hell nah, you can steal powers too!?!
"What's that? All of the lights for our Ludacris Laser Light-showevganza are all pointing at the same place in the sky at maximum power?
Damn. I can't believe Ludacris became public domain sometime before 207X. I guess Walt Disney was never born here.
In space, there floats a satellite whose existence would be denied by every major government on the globe.
I got my eye on you...
Black Swan recovers one injury level! Shielded!
Crazy Mona be like: 「I'm going to fix this shield generator」
The data the brass gave him was undisputable: Valiant Silver was meddling with forces she didn't understand. Her arrogance nearly destroyed the city—no, the world.
Damn....I guess in the end we were the ones drilling the stage for oil. Now we know! Thanks American military-industrial complex!

Printemps says nothing but holds his wife tight to his chest, both of them shaking like leaves. Having his neck broken didn't elicit a reaction like this—Opale stops.
So scarly charlie eats the newest empowered metahumans first. Good to know
A hypernovae, feeding into an unquenchable star.
Astrophysicists hate her! Learn how this blackhole became a star with just one easy trick!
8 - 3 + 5 (Hypernovae Mode) + 5 (Lightspeed Attack) + 5 (Tell Zixuan to Stop Looking for Me.)
Girl we ain't got the heart to leave you out to dry. And as we're about to see, we might not have the luxury to either.
You are trapped

No no you dont want to end up like him help please god, someone help vou


Star continues examining you, but when you say nothing, you cant, she turns back to the screen. Just in time for all of the other members to join.
Owo, who's dis?
You feel disappointment at not seeing Hand. It is glorious. You feel relief he is not here he is disgusting

An IV extends from her arm, into a solution in a bag that is being fed into her. She is like you
So zalgotext is moon river? Huh, if I had a nickel for every member of Justice Unlimited who was made by these guys...

Also damn. Christian sounds tough

Key gets even angrier, but there is a loud, booming, disgusting glorious gurgle you hear in your mind. Ah, Hand is here after all!

You Scream inside your own mind no please god no its harder to come back everytime vou go away. Help please anyone

Help
Getting mixed signals queen but okay👍
Jenny screams, but the ice and Levithan's blood annihilate each other in a reaction that is as horrifying as it is fascinating to watch.
Now does this mean the frozen throne is equal or opposite to the Levithan? Also, does she think the throne was caused by JU??? What!?!?
...come to think of it I can imagine that but the how and why are so outlandish that I shan't say
 
DC 20

Stat Check: HIT 15. Black Swan has HIT 9.

You rolled: 8.

8 - 3 + 5 (Hypernovae Mode) + 5 (Lightspeed Attack) + 5 (Tell Zixuan to Stop Looking for Me.) = 20. Critical Success!
You know, isn't this check kind of stupidly difficult if not done in a Story Cutscene moment (and how did Moon River even contribute to that)?

Not quite Literally Impossible, but might as well be for anyone without Potency 13 + Second Wind Unlock?

Impossible if the net modifier isn't at least +0 (assuming a nat 20 doesn't auto win any check), and even then a neutral die has 5% chance. Also, it's funny that we rolled the absolute minimum to get to 20 even with all those bonuses. Even 1 lower would've failed, and I'm guessing Scarlet Maturity wouldn't have needed to revive. The dice must really love drama.

Had a Fun Build for a Hero with both our Known synergies while making sure the synergies are formed from powerful Keywords.

Plan Energy Dragon

Soldier X (1P) + Daggermaw (1P)+ Crimson Soprano (2p)+ The Outsider (4P) + Deadman (5P) - Reduction (3P)= 10P

Synergies:
Autobiokinesis
Fundamental Force Manipulation

Remaining Keywords:
Enhanced Strength
Enhanced Senses
Flight
Energy Manipulation
Invisibility

This is plan that gives a both Autobiokinesis and FFM. Using Deadman as the Bridge to between the two synergies all keywords used in have a balance in strenght. Deadman Strong Regen enough to bring him back from death makes up Daggermaw Transformation and his Elemental Manipulation makes sure we get a strong FFM.

I'm not exactly sure what specific we get from here but it should give us a Powerful Regenerator with shapeshifting from Outsider and with Blood in the form of FFM to attack with.

And not enough buckets sadly.. that will change however! We have an cool as shit armor suit and a sentient black hole on our team!
I think we can handle it. I think.
 
...why does Fish only summarize what Key says? It's not that Key only communicates through nonverbals or telepathy or something. The narrative says that Key "says" things, but never gives any dialogue.
