Built into the cliffs overlooking the Suvan Sea, Riverfall resides on the edge of grasslands of Cyphrus where the Bluevein River plunges off the plain and cascades down to the inland sea below. Home of the Akalak, Riverfall is a self-supporting city populated by devoted warriors. [Riverfall Codex]

As soon as I get back home from these new years celebrations I shall flood the city with threads and responses ^.^ and this new year should be great for the winter roleplay season.

[Riverfall] Take The Plunge!

Postby Mo'esha on January 2nd, 2016, 1:29 am

For anyone interested, I've posted an open thread for Winter Blaze. Mo is chilling looking for drinks and what not, and will begin manifesting her power soon. If anyone else wants to jump in, to meet the participation requirement or just for the hell of it, please feel free.

[Riverfall] Take The Plunge!

Postby Nivel on January 2nd, 2016, 4:15 am

for those that can't think of super powers I have ideas :) (they might be terrible but maybe you'll get some ideas from them)
Secret :
Swimming through the sky: With a focused mind you can swim through the sky as if it were water.

Imaginary platforms: You can make stationary objects that your character can climb that no one else can interact with.

Super stealth: As long as you don't move and hold your breath no one notices you, if they see you they won't care but once people have seen you breath your power is useless on them.

Warm Aura: the area around you feels warm and comforting so you and people around you don't have to worry about the cold.

Green thumb: Plants thrive near you even in winter. you can probably combined this with the warm Aura in order to make you the embodiment of summer through out winter.

Akalak connection: I was thinking of this as a collaborative super power (especially for akalaks) you basically get access to another character knowledge and a bit of their skills (as long as you have the physical capablities.) you can also feel a bit of their memories and such so it's like you have additional brothers.

Altered self: you can change your age, sex and race but you still look like your self. So you can turn into a female version of yourself or you can go from human to akalak version of yourself.

Hormone/scent powers: you can send signals to bees that convince them your their queen or convince a wolf pack that you belong with them. The hormones probably ware off after a while or under certain conditions though.

Imaginary friend: You had an imaginary friend from child hood that you mostly forgot about and they have come back to help you. A draw back to this is that your child hood Nightmares are also back and want to kill you.


I could go on forever because I make up super powers as a hobby but I'll take a break for today.
FYI: the power I would choose for Nivel would be to shape shift into weapons/tools for other people to use that would give them inspiration and courage. :P if someone wants to use it please do but it sort of works better for a pycon player (some tweaking maybe required)

Oh my word Mo!!! I love your idea for the dress :D very Tim Burton of you, and by that I mean super inspired and awesome!
As for the dance, I shall have Eldrid join you with her painted dress as soon as I can. She can't dance either, kinda has 2 left feet, but without the feet . . . Or the legs.

And the imaginary friend idea is my favourite on that list Nivel :) tis an inspired idea! Wish I could steal it XD but I'm getting overly attached to my book power.

I liked Nivel's contribution to possible superpowers, and me being a Merciful Lord I too have some ideas if you guys want to acquire a superpower.

Secret :
Smoke manipulation: Your character becomes attuned with smoke, including that from tobacco and fire alike. His/her lungs are capable of absorbing said smoke for some period of time (3 days maybe? You figure it out) and blow it out to form a smoke cloud. The quantity varies, but I imagine it would be enough to completely fill a room and possibly choke someone inside! One of the disadvantages would be that if the smoke is not released in a certain time, you suffocate. Now you have an excuse for your PC to be always carrying a lit cigar in it’s mouth :P


Petrification: Your character is able to immediately turn into stone, thus making you immune to most damage (not from maces or great hammers, as it would shatter the rock :P). Any clothes or belongings also turn into stone, with the exception of any living being that is not you. So you can’t really turn someone into stone, Medusa wannabes. While petrified your character loses notion of time but doesn’t need to breathe or anything like that, thus making it hard to properly time in combat unless he/she trains it thoroughly.

Hand-tracking: Your character is able to stick their arms into any structure, regardless of how solid it is. Then, he/she is able to sense anything moving or standing on said surface in a 25 feet distance. One example would be sticking hands into the soil and detecting buried treasures! One limitation could be that on hard surfaces like stone it would be somewhat harder to keep track of the moving objects/individuals.

Detachable limbs:
The title says it all. At will, your character is able to separate all limbs (yes, including the head) without consequence. If the limb is taken out of a 25 feet radius, said limb cannot be reattached and thus making you a cripple (or a dead head :P). Now you can bash people’s head with your own arms! Or give someone a scare as you hold your head in your arms. It can be used in combat, though the limbs still take damage if they are damaged. If you detached an arm and it got cut with a sword, once you reattach it you’d feel the pain and it would begin to bleed quite badly. Maybe you can also detach your eyes? Have fun, you gruesome sickos :o

Acidic snots.
*sigh* Yes, now your snots act like poison. You can also spit phlegm that burn your opponents just like acid would. It’s a crazy and stupid idea, but being able to kill your boss AND have him eat your snots is crazily hilarious. Your character is like a disgusting Dhani, but without being as greasy as a snake.

Hyper Hair. Your character’s hair becomes like a limb to you. It can grow or shrink at will, change color or straighten up if you had an afro. Additionally, you can control it just like a limb, perhaps use it to wrap around an enemies neck and kill him with your mane. Haircuts are overrated. One disadvantage could be that it hurts to wash it or something. I dunno, you guys figure it out.


Sorry for the delay of my replies, I'll dish out everything I owe these couple of days. Have fun!

Wikus, you should have picked Hyper Beard as your superpower. That would have been 'awesome'.

Oh, what about Mycosocialite :P
Someone who is able to grow mushroom spores (and by extention whole mushrooms) on surfaces by touch. Thus grossing people out quite thoroughly by growing big toadstools on their faces. Downside could be that you always have to wear gloves, which smell particularly pungent inside.

Okay,
1. Hyperbeard would be Ah-mazing.
2. This may border on Phylonura a bit too much, but I thought I would throw it out there anyway in regard to El's Mycosocialism. Fun fact, many species of mushrooms can actually communicate via a blanket of connecting roots and spores. How cool would it be to strategically place mushrooms around the city, and then be able to gather information from them via those spores. It's like Shroomnet!

That would be really cool though XD and I doubt anyone would suspect the mushrooms.
