I got into the mood for this

Féth Fíada(6) + Chatroom(4) + Crimson Soprano(2) + Mister Hunch (1) = 13 Potency
Keywords: [Clairvoyance] x3, [Ally Empowerment] x2, [Elemental Manipulation], [Mental Manipulation], [Energy Manipulation], [Solar Absorption], [Invisibility], [Flight]

In addition to a combo that almost guarantees [Fundamental Force Manipulation], this set has triple [Clairvoyance] and double [Ally Empowerment] in addition to Mental Manipulation which in my head could be work as a psychic telepath maybe?

I'd probably swap Hunch for Multiplex or Hydrocity tbh? Since there were the rumors about her being able to turn into the fog, and while that's not true, there's a non zero chance Multiplex could allow for some funky options in that vein. While Hydrocity would just be doubling down on using the water from there in the fog creation further.

Otherwise I do prefer Chatroom for coordinating the ability to see the people hidden in the fog, but iSpy could theoretically involve sharing senses with allies to see them or maybe auto tagging people in the fog range? I think the Ally Empowerment tag is probably more useful but the info and invisibility tag are at least contenders to think of for other potential psychic synergies.

I'll admit I put Mr Hunch for the sake of bumping up the Clairvoyance combo. Multiplex and Hydrocity does have merit; giving the Multiplex combo could bump up the user's survivability within the fog and might even give them a form of [Invulnerability], while Hydrocity with your idea of fog creation might expand the range of the fog, and to an extent their AoE range of Ally Empowerment (which is a noted weakness of Chatroom) and/or their psychic powers.

I also personally prefer Chatroom, but I acknowledge that iSpy does have merits with double [Invisibility] and the range of what it could possibly do within the fog.

Psychic Fog War
Féth Fíada(6) + Chatroom(4) + Crimson Soprano(2) + Multiplex(1) = 13 Potency

@Arcus you mind putting this combo in the Possible Ambrosia Builds to keep it in mind for when Yara comes around?
 
[X] Plan Master of Water - A Throne of our own!
-[X] Hydrocity (1)
-[X] Frostbite (3)
-[X] Féth Fíada (6)
-[X] POTENCY REDUCTIONS (- 3)
-[X] TOTAL POTENCY OF DOSE: 7

MY VOTE~
It slots in perfectly with the whole narrative "John Henry Vs. Flamez" thing going on and feels like it has the possibility to be very powerful with just what it can do! I mean looking at just the three powers involved it most likely will involve some sort of Domain Control.

I mean what more can you want from a support! Able to create an area of control to establish a control of a situation- it's really good!

Edit: Ya'll why are there votes for 10 potency powers? Are you trying to get John Henry Killed?!
Edit 2: Wait I read the DNA profiles and the subtractions- Are you supposed to take into account the -3 for Totally Potency or not?

Oh man, reading these plans has me dying and exited in spades. I have ideas. And not what I was expecting! That the joy of quests, I suppose!

In unrelated news, I've updated my side effects tables. What, you guys didn't forget about those, did you?

I guess theory crafting is fun for Bitterman. Especially with this groups of Mad men/women on the wheel.
I Wonder whats on the side effect table...

Edit:
Since John is potency 7 he is in the range of a mid level side effect...

Thanks everybody who voted for God Fist NEO— I put a lot of time and thought into it. I hope that we can bring it back for the candidates from Cenotaph.

I'd encourage everybody to check out @ThaTrueRealmWalk's plan, Master of Water. It's pretty good!

Well I mean uh thanks? I can get why everyone likes the Helicopter plan though...

I read through the notes on what that plan was made for and I do think my plan can rival it a bit in battlefield control!
 
One thing that I'm excited for in the future, aside from more Ambrosia, is Ellie's inevitable encounter with Apiary. Is she gonna get the same "Probationary Member" thing, or something different?
 
[X]Plan: Messenger & Traveller
-[X] Millions Minefield (1P)
-[X] Memoria (4P)
-[X] Chatroom (4P)
-[X] Mr. Hunch (1P)
-[X] Potency Reduction (-3P)
-[X] Total Potency Dose: 7

[X] Give Ellie the EXCEED-BEYOND

Keywords:
Energy Manipulation X1
-Create Spheres of energy that can explode upon contact or creators discretion
Clairvoyance X3
-Send Telephatic messages and images to anyone in range.
-Create 5 Pictures that show the present state of a given area
-See the past of an object and anything that happened within 5 meters of it
Teleportation X1
-Teleport to marked areas with those they touch
Ally Empowerment X1
-Allow allies to send telephathic message and images to those in the network.

Like I said before this gives us a Teleporting Telepaht. Which would give us both battlefield control and Coordination. Also Telepathy could provide help in talking wiht R-Train which is important not only for the Girls but continue with Project Prometheus.

In Terms of how this Combo works I think this will turn into a Teleporter able to Teleport others through telepathic connection or maybe with Energy Manipulation give them a charge to teleport away whenever they want.

X3 Clairvoyance should ensure a Powerful Clairvoyance as Wolong noted here. It should also ensure we get Teleportation and Ally Empowerment, especially since Mr. Hunch Clairvoyance is already a lock in and Ally empowerment was why Chatroom could connect lots of people in a telepathic network instead of only being able to send messages to people.

Then Millions Energy Manipulation could give John a Way to fight through creating mines to fill an area and then just porting away to safety, or like with Bastion Energy would a be a way to give teamamates buffs.

I can't wait for the shonen rivalry-with-homoerotic-subtext (and possibly more~) that will blossom between Mona and Noelle

Bubbly vs stoic, professional vs a bit lazy, friendly vs withdrawn… That's wonderful potential chemistry right there.

I want to see them compete over number of Behemoths slain in a day.
 
Plan CATCH THESE HANDS—
  • Soldier X (1) + Multiplex (1) + Daggermaw (1) + Fast Track (3) + Lightstep (7) - (3) = (10)
    • 2x Enhanced Speed
    • 2x Transformation
    • 2x Enhanced Strength
    • 2x Enhanced Senses
    • 1x Self-Enhancement
    • 1x Ally Empowerment
    • 1x Fitness
    • 1x Regeneration
    • 1x Invulnerability
The goal of this build is to HIT OUR OPPONENTS AS HARD AS POSSIBLE. To that note, I've eschewed every single esoteric, blasty, or psychic power for maximum destruction.

On a more serious note, the combo of 2x keywords all allow Fast Track's weakness to be nullified, and for Lightspeed's strengths to shine. We're invulnerable while we're going fast— which is all the time.

Also, we pretty much have a Domain Expansion with this. We open up the Fast Track field, and then give all our allies stat buffs/steal our enemies physiques.

As for the extra 1s, Soldier X was chosen for being even more buff, and Multiplex was just a consistency throw-in. Mister Hunch could be thrown in as well, but I'm unsure if he'd give us enough [Clarivoyance] to make something psychic. If we confirm that freebie synergy from Wolong to be [Clarivoyance+Enhanced Senses/Strength], I'd change it up. I'm also willing to go for Steadfast, but that kinda breaks theme.

I also imagine that like Wolong said, we might get some form of extra powers from the extra Potency. Perhaps some sort of extra Regen, or for non-Keyword expressed powers, maybe some sort of Clairvoyance just off of the Enhanced Senses. Alternatively, if this candidate punches a hole in space, I suppose that could be considered Teleportation.

Either way, we can save this for Wave 2 of our HT candidates. I have a feeling that we'll need a guy like this for Repatriation.

I mostly included Mona's attraction as a joke! I didn't think so many people would be into it.

I guess I gotta keep this bit going. That's fine though! Some writers use subtext. I call them cowards.

Huh. Neat. One more for the pile I guess.
Im honestly interested to see what candidates we will get, especially if they are of the earliest ones. Specifically the ones where we didnt exactly know how to put the difference between tolerance and stats. I very dang well know that at least my candidates need to be reworked( seriously i think mine were 7 and 8 tolerance with rather mid to hight stats, they need to be reworked...) specially their back stories. Mind you I dont mind, Bitterman knows what they are doing.
....although considering I made them investigators/cops before knowing that is more militias than cops in world and that I made the way the found out about the Project was them imvestigating the sudden rise in heroes in JU, is REALLY ironic in hindsight. Since... you know.. *points at the current situation*.

Hey most magical girl anime have that subtext in their shows, why not here? Depends if Mona realizes she is doing anime tropes "irl".
