Huh?
Powers that are up for grabs: Light bending (simple, so no complex visual illusions) and hardening, acid, wind manipulation, cold, fire, electromagnetism, dimensional shifting (teleporting, temporary pseudo-inviulnerability, slight molecular disruption), sickness, sound, dark matter/antimatter, time manipulation (no unmaking someone, can speed or slow things down, reverse personal time [this might end up being a very soft or hard science fiction power depending on the player, so HHD you might want to take this]), gravity manipulation, hallucinations (using specialized hallucinogens secreted by the subject, may be softcore), and kinetics (converting other forms of energy into kinetic energy, allowing for enhanced physical capabilities).
This isn't magic, and thus it provides less control. They aren't all tht powerful, with their power level being a bit above say, Master Chief in terms of actual power. The electromagnetic one couldn't destroy a large ship easily, but a small fighter jet would be fairly easy. Have a character be balance in terms of physical ability, skill, and power strength. A powerful Mage-like LOTUS wouldn't be the best in physical combat and be pretty flimsy. Things like wind aren't control over wind, but more like the ability to manipulate air flow using specialized motors, blades, and other tech. This isn't quite hard science fiction, but it isn't soft. Not everything has an explanation in order to make it more open, but no Deus Ex Machina or random happenstance. Some things are separate and treated differently for balance and thematic purposes, such as heat an cold being separate. These can be treated as fire and ice too. Anyways, I think you get the point.

Ninja'd I'm not going to start it just yet. I still need to work on TMG and help GX with her FF post to get things moving.

So these Lotuses are cyborgs right? I'm forming a concept around the time one...

Yes, but the tech in and of itself is sort of organic. It's kind of weird. The scientists who discovered the tech concluded that it was designed to be attached to organisms, based off of its semi-organic structure and the way it interacts with it's subject's nervous system. The technology is sort of alive, which is why several subjects went insane. Later versions underwent psychological treatment and some formed bonds with their enhancements, either accepting the "mind" as their own or as a separate entity. One could have an actual AI within their enhancements to sort of give it form and reduce stress. This wasn't enacted until later versions. Anyways, there are a few powers I left off for story reasons and another that I'm using as the one for my character. HHD, I'd be willing to give control of this to you since you'd probably be more suited to it if you wanted to.

Seeing as my Star Wars one is biting dust, I might can make a new RP. I just need an idea. Normally with my busy schedule I wouldn't do it, but...
Anyone have a favorite setting for a medieval ish RP?

Hmm, maybe try going with an Eastern style fantasy. I think a feudal Japan or Three Kingdoms China would be neat.

I like that idea Golurk, but in aiming for a divided country sort of thing. I don't know the concept the eastern countries medieval times besides Samurai. And I'm trying to make it fantasy too.

Even before ROS. I just haven't decided whether I'm keeping it as a RP, or converting it to a CYOA. Also, Emperor, I fully intend to continue the Star Wars RP. But I told you before I joined the RP, I wouldn't be able to update that much.

Wait, you're planning a DW RP? Using OCs as PCs or actual people?

Yay! I figured as much. The Flute is a common instrument, and since you're in Chorus, that means you're a singer who probably knows how to breathe correctly. And since you seem to be happy with band, I take it the Conductor is at least semi competent, as otherwise I don't think you'd be as happy. And any competent Conductor would be more likely to assign a trained singer to a Flute. So really, I just chose the option with the best odds.

I chose Clarinet because I just have some weird inexplicable stigma against flutes.
It just seems so clichéd and such.
I would be playing the F Horn (It's called the French Horn because idiots even though it's a German instrument and the Bflat horn is the French one) for my fifth year, but I had to drop Band in order to take Chem Lab for Honors Chem (which is infamously hard at my school).

(OC is Original Character). I've just seen some people create their own fictional characters for DW stuff and was wondering what you'd be doing.
