What did The Outsider even give Rhys? He didn't get Invisibility or Energy Manipulation, and the two Transformations could have come from Daggermaw and Adamant.
Nah Outsider gave Rhys his bullshit shapeshifting. Outsider could manipulate his energy body into diferent shapes and forms along with becoming bigger.

Adamant+Outsider is basically what created clay. Sacrifcing durability of Adamantiuom for more abilitiy to manipulate the body.
 
Coincidentally, I'm rereading a few updates and just now came across the post where you were asking for help for making Warpstar the best character. And since I've been loving his dialogue, I'm looking forwards to Chihiro's.
 
Most sci-fi became "low" sci-fi. Stuff like Planetes or The Expanse. Mostly confined to our solar system. Now that people knew aliens were real and dangerous, they were less fun to think about.
Two years in the future, live on tv/internet:
Alien representative: Hi, so we were doing our regular, once a [109.7 year] observation/check-up to see how your species is going and we've had ro break containment/shield/stealth to ask: what the [expletitive] is that?!? *pointing at picture of the Keviathan"
Some human: The Leviathan? We were kinda hoping you'd know, it came from space.
Alien: There's nothing remotely like it in the [Virgo Supercluster] to our knowledge/belief/understanding.
Human: Well, that's terrifying.
 
Witch Master
Feth Faida (6) + Wild Speaker (3) + Steadfast (2) + Hydrocity (1) + Mr. Hunch (1)

this is still a Yara-based psychic build, but with Feth's efficient suite of powers, I managed to cram a decent amount in. Hopefully the extra elemental stuff will let her blast some fools even in situations where mind reading can't help.

Mental Manip x2
Elemental Manip x2
Clairvoyance x2
Ally Empowerment x2
Invis x1
Invuln x1
It's got it, don't worry.
 
(I have no idea how believable this idea would be, but I'm putting it out there
The possibpe rewards for Meet the Rookies:
(Chance of increase to REPUTATION for Black Swan, Menagerie Witch, Handyman, Châtelet, and Lady Leizi, Encounter with Crusade, Chance of recruiting Takanashi Chihiro as a Public Relations Manager—+1 Global Action and New Global Actions Unlocked)
Also she's pretty mad at corporate right now for inserting Juan and Crusade in her big scoop
 
Make Warpstar a fan?..... I hate myself for trying ..
Or make Warpstar a stalker ....
Or kidnap her to interview Monarch's circle
Or just an interview
I can't stop
idk man, the kidnapper/stalker idea will just make me like Warpstar less, and I kinda don't want that.
Anyway, Seraph doing this is making me wanna double down on the Make Yara Our Psychic plan. Witch Master (might rename to Fairy Queen) is go.
I'll consider it with Witch Master having invulnerability, tho I'll admit as much as we probably can't afford to waste time, I kinda want to do initial testing first. As well as do a few Wolong questions.

The Ally Empowerment question might help with that honesty.
 
I definitely think that we should think a bit more narratively than mechanically when it comes to our DNA samples.

For instance, Nox - his DNA has a lot of tags and that's a bit intimidating, but his main thing is emotional vampirism. That means he might be a great mix with, for instance, Eastwood and Chatroom. If we mix those together you probably have a really strong Empath powerset - someone who can sense people's emotion, absorb them, and maybe mix them together for esoteric effects.

It's probably not what we'd want for Yara, because it sounds like people want the entire psychic package, whatever that looks like.

But, similarly... I'm a bit hesitant about the Witch Master build because Feth Faida's main thing is making a fog with esoteric effects - the mental effects are secondary to the fog so even if it contributes to Mental Manipulation, the end result might look odd.

Honestly Yeh Nox+Chatroom+Eastwood+Mr Hunch would be a scary combo thought not for Yara since she needs atleast 1 Invulnerability tag. So you can just kill her off.

Honestly need Wulong to give us a Clue for what we need for psyhic synergy.
 
I feel like Doctor Silver covers a lot of our defensive needs? If we unlock Does Not Play Dice, we can guarantee that Invisibility shows up, which is it's own sort of defense, at least if Rakeem's discussion of why he always looked after Leizi counts for anything.
 
. . . goddamnit guys hahahahahahah.

Look, there's a very esoteric psychic Invincibility synergy and I'm going to find an excuse to have Wolong tell you about it. Bah, that's why I'm adding this stuff to the personal action rewards!

Also, luck checks are weighted so you win with a 10 or higher. That's 55%! How you do fail so many?!

You have a broad point, I'm just going off my intuition that Telepathy would be Clairvoyance x2 + Mental Manipulation x2 + Ally Empowerment, throwing on Steadfast because everyone's scared she'll get hurt, and then adding an extra Elemental Manipulation for flavor/to improve her ability to blast things with water/fire/plants/ice/wind/whatever she ends up having.

random Bitterman curiosity: because Leizi is our hero, would you say that you've reduced the chances of electricity showing up in any Elemental Manipulation-based set we do because it'd steal her thunder, pun intended?
