I would join but do I need to know anything about LOTUS ahead of time? I know next to nothing unless this is an original RP then I would like to join. It's original.

So... can I be the main villain? Or at least the main villain of the first arc, who then reluctantly joins the good guys to face a bigger threat, except all the good guys hate him and want to kill him? Please? Pretty please? That would be so much fun.
If so, then I'll definitely join. I have too many good guy dragon/deity MCs. I want to play as an evil son of a b****.

Hmm, Neo, some ideas you might enjoy in terms of powers:
Anti-matter Dimensional Phasing (like the Water Wraith in Pikmin 2. Passing through walls, short-distance teleportation, destruction through displacement) Mass Manipulation (Biotics from Mass Effect) Sound Light (two forms: Bending to manipulate lighting, invisibility, and illusions; and concentrating light into solid surfaces and blasts)

I do want to do something with Black Holes though.

So with Black Holes, you'll probably want either mass or gravity manipulation then for true black holes, but with Anti-matter, you can basically destroy matter and the energy is then released as kinetic, electromagnetic, and nuclear energy while new matter and antimatter are produced.

This isn't directed towards you of course, just saying. You're actually pretty approachable. Just that PM's aren't really my thing. Too secretive, but I understand the need of them. Rest assured that next time shall be a PM. Also, have you ever heard a book by Daniele steel called A Good Woman? It is a well written and good book. I'm aware that the title sounds... Sexist, but it is nothing like that.

Oooh... I just had a killer idea. Would the electromagnetic and nuclear energy released from such a power be sufficient for an energy source? Cause then my character would have to destroy to survive. He would literally live off of destruction, and be destruction incarnate. Without being too OP, what are the furthest limits we can take that power? For example, could he wipe out small worlds? The idea I'm forming so far is similar to the Crystalline Entity from TNG meets Ephidel from UB meets Omega from Megaman Zero.

The energy efficiency of antimatter is hilariously awful, due to the fact that anti-mater is extremely expensive to make (currently).
However, this is the future, and we can fudge the numbers with HHD's permission.

However, this is the future, and we can fudge the numbers with HHD's permission. Still waiting on HHD's permission to be the main villain. For his ultimate ability, I want something that will transform him into a giant crystal being. I'm thinking something along the lines of him being the last LOTUS ever created, hence the name Omega. They tried to create a living star destroyer basically, giving him the capability to destroy and absorb matter on a massive scale. To this end, they fused his very being with Anti-matter, granting him the properties of Anti-matter itself. Naturally, everything went horribly wrong, and the being they created proved far too dangerous and volatile, so they tried to decommission him, and he went Mewtwo on their arses. Obviously, I'm going to come up with a lot more and flesh everything out. But first I need to get his powers down pat, what is and isn't allowed, etc. And I have to be the villain before I'll join. I will not take no for an answer!

That seems alright, but the crystal being might be a bit much if you're serious about that.
Plus, how would they fuse his being with antimatter? Wouldn't that destroy him?
Anyways, you could have him be able to produce and contain anti-matter and then use it as a weapon, but I'm not sure on him being fused with anti-matter. Of course, there could always be some sort of dimensional phasing of sorts that alter his own physical properties so that he is made of anti-matter and he just launches his anti-matter biological fluids (eww), but how would he produce such fluids?
Hrmm...

Anti-matter would be necessary to power a lot of space-age stuff. Go ahead. The problem with being an "antimatter elemental" is that you literally couldn't exist anywhere so...need to write around that.
I'm very loose on whatever direction this takes so go ahead and be the bad guy

Couldn't he, as a supposed anti-matter being, be contained within his suit under certain circumstances?
Say, he's surrounded by a vacuum (assuming that wouldn't kill him), and his suit suspends him in the vacuum using magnetic or nuclear force, meaning he doesn't touch any matter whatsoever.

Hrmm... I just spit my drink all over my Laptop. That is freaking genius! Antimatter Spit Cannon, GO! Okay, okay. So maybe he can produce weapons and such of antimatter, or maybe antimatter laser beams and such. I wasn't really serious about the Crystal thing. I don't want him to be some generic Cyborg who has weapons for arms, though. I want him to be something different, something terrifying, almost like he is the very essence of destruction, the antithesis to life itself. That's why I want anti-matter to be his power. Hmm... Any suggestions?

Maybe he's a sort of portal to an alternate dimension (like an anti-universe) and constantly produces anti-matter, making him annihilate all matter he nears. As a portal, he's sustained by the energy produced by the anti-matter. I don't think he could deactivate it, but he could have some sort of stasis-suit that preserves him (thus holding the portal and the anti-universe in a temporal standstill) and allows an onboard AI based on himself to take control.

Maybe instead of literally being made of antimatter, they found a way to infuse it into his bloodstream, without killing him? Wait, never mind, that wouldn't work... Hrm... This is tricky. In my mind, I have an image of what I want him to be, but figuring this out may take a while... I don't think him being an entity comprised of antimatter would work though.

See above post.
Also I made some nice edits to both the feats and some of the classes. There might still be an edit I need to make to Secretkeeper (I think I forgot to add Spell Level to the Save DC and I might need to nerf a boost so it isn't too powerful since Secretkeeper uses its INT score weighed against its opponent's INT score for Saves.
