From Ashes We Rise [FAWR / WIP] Upd. 30. Oct

@Nightgazer
Thank you for that wonderful piece of dialogue!
Because of you, I had quite a big inspiration on how to continue, and I sure as hell can say that it’s going to be very interesting.
If you guys would want, I can offer to show this to you and the others, though I will keep it as spoilers so that not everyone sees it immediately.

I, for one, welcome our new surprise overlords.

Seriously, I personally, hate spoiler with a passion.

So yeah, please hide it from me.

Hey,I have a question for you about the powers you can get,specifically the blood one.

How does it work?

I just can’t wrap my head around the blood power,and I’d appreciate it if you would shed some light onto it.

I now have a mental image of Wraith dressed as the Overlord, sitting on a throne of our own bottled tears that come from when she goes GoT and kills Ace, the most beloved character.

A literal kick the dog moment. I am soooo not sorry for that joke.

Just finished reading the demo. I loved it! I love the Under the Red Hood vibes. I also really enjoyed flirting with the new Blackbird while Crow was looking between us suspiciously, because he does not trust me. I may have killed a few people during the work together scene:innocent:. Hopefully I can win Crow over a little bit though. As my character still looks up to Crow, but strays every now from his strict moral code.

Well technically it’s Lucien’s fault but meh, let’s stay on tracks here, we are going to be berated if we derail.

Let’s try our best to not derail the conversation too much, we contestant to have an administrator t come over and tell us about the forum rules.

Well, this does happen to be one of my favorite WiP’s, to the point where I’m already sort of a member of the unofficial FAWR fan-club, so that is to be expected :expressionless:

(Hello Wraith, Snow, Umbra, Neo, Nathan and Snake :wink: :wave:)

It’s too bad that @Wraith doesn’t seem to be doing so well on trying to focus on the parts of the story that follow up the bits she’s already written, because it would be nice to have something new to discuss :wink:
totally super subtle hint

Unoficial fan-club ? We are more of a gang dear Rosewood :smiley:

Okay, soo… Let’s answer some questions and reply to some posts I hadn’t before ~
Need to do that one day, and I was hiding from doing it quite a while… But now, back to business!

You mean a chaotic psychopath with a questionable mind? Eh, depends. While I do have a few endings in mind that are questionable from the state of the MC’s mind, I am not sure if I am going to include such a guy into the story ^^ Not sure if I could write someone like that anyway.

But as some of the other people already said beforehand, there might be some similar traits later on.

Like, adding Fire Powers to the ‘normal’ Lightning Powers, for example? Probably not. Would be a hell of a lot coding, and I first need to finish the other ones. Maybe, once I am through with everything in the game, I would perhaps try to do something like that once the actual game is finished with every path.

If you mean that we upgrade our normal powers, then yes. That can be done after the Cathedral part where we can choose to upgrade either our armor, our agility, or our weapon. Our weapon gets a little upgrade where we can ‘infuse’ it with our powers a bit.

Partly Spoilers (Beware)

Although it has partly been answered, the Law-System and the government isn’t really the brightest one. Like @Sammysam already said, Vigilante wouldn’t be running around if the police and other people enforcing the law would actually do something. That said, you will be seeing what is actually wrong with that part in the future.

You can bet on that :wink: There will be quite a few scenes, especially in one of the hero paths

The Blood ability is a bit tricky, to be honest. While they are in a liquid form, it can be formed into anything the MC would wish upon and hardens. That’s one of the reasons why it can create a shield or projectiles. The MC can use their own blood, but should do so wisely, or they can use blood of the enemies. Problem is, the MC can’t Directly use said blood. It must have been spilled beforehand, or the MC needs to have physical contact with the target. Otherwise, the powers are useless for the MC.

That said, it works almost like the metal ability.

I would be a very small Overlord, trampled by all my minions when I order them something to attack, while dressed in too many layers that would make me look chubby. :stuck_out_tongue: Not sure if that is the image you had in mind xD

Your totally super subtle hint has been noted. And to please the Rosemod, I am trying to start the hero path a bit xD

While the movie was great (watched it as well), I’m not sure that that kind of MC will fit into the story I’ve planned well. I’ll think about it, but I promise nothing ~
