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

Yeah, Umbra… Why did YOU get two entries? gives the evil eye

@SheaMcD the eye colour? That’s pretty cool.

Omg Omg

Red light Green light.

Heterochromia (why is this underlined on the spell check?)

And yeah, I kinda read @Nekumura’s mind there. Spooky.

closes green eye. red light…
opens green eye. GREEN LIGHT.

creates huge shockwave and knocks everybody away.

Truth be told, I was hoping your character would win and mine would be runner up (or vice versa). I thought those two would make for an interesting dynamic ie: your character is more like CABAL than mine is, and my character is more like a ghost.

I just thought that to be awesome.

Tries to blink but trips and knocks himself away

Gonna read some character profiles tomorrow(CABAL is loooong), but for now… Sleep!!!

Good night then :smiley:

Will make tea and then continue to write
Cheers! I can finally continue with the part where the MC meets the contest winner

Since your character sees themselves as a Anti-Hero, the two could of had a fierce rivalry that caused a lot of mayhem and thanks to Ghost’s control over tech and Cabal’s cloning, it would create a battlefield of man vs. machine and neither getting the upper hand. Would of made a great side mission where the MC is hired to deal with their destructive fights.

That… is a well thought of mission o.o
Truth to be told I had not thought of two of the characters dealing with each other…
Ah well, I need tea. Or coffee… otherwise I am useless in the evening times.

I always imagined the runners up interacting with each other and sharing the side mission. Maybe the winner could cross paths with one of the runners up?

Ah, yes. I can hear it now. “Listen to the sounds of your own extinction, human.” That one line is enough to fill me with nostalgia.

It’s funny because if Ghost was to win, I would have wanted her goals to become one with her machines, create the ultimate hivemind and crush the government. (She would already have a cyborg arm fashioned like a real arm complete with muscle fibers and synthetic skin.)

Okay the more u talk about Ghost the more overability she gets,she adapting to fast

It’s fine. Cabal will keep her in check.

Nothing wrong with a hivemind, but I’m not sure that your character would survive that (and still be sane). Bring back memories of Project Overlord from Mass Effect 2 where they tried human interaction with the geth.

The original Cabal that was in my archive was also vastly overpowered. Had to nerf, and nerf hard.

Which is her flaw, she was way too overpowered to be included into the game. She would of killed the MC and every other character too easily.

I get carried away with powered characters and end up creating a demi-god.

@Lord_Zant you’re right, her goals are impossible, she would need massive amounts of resources even her powers couldn’t provide and like you said, it would kill her or shatter her mind. But she doesn’t know this and she still drives towards it.

Or u trying to make a God that’s behind the computer

Wasn’t intentional. I didn’t realise how powerful she truly was until a few days later.

Darn now I realise how much I wanted to win. I had such a cool backstory for the cyborg arm :laughing:

You can always add Ghost to your own game anyway… I´ve got nothing…

Already going to. Problem is I already have two female main NPCs but I can easily give her a sex change, also powers like this don’t exist apart from magic and it doesn’t mix well with machinery and technology so I might just make them a cyborg with extreme intelligence and engineering.

Wow now that I read through all this I realise that my character was way to OP. His ability was to conjure any weapon he wanted, so techinally he could create a mini nuke.

EDIT: I basically copied Prodigal from Heroes Rise without even noticing it lol.:fearful:
