Unless you want to be a standard PRT grunt with containment foam and a baton.

[Beirus]

So, do we get an intuitive understanding of the basics of our powers, or will we have to figure them all out?

Unless you want to be a standard PRT grunt with containment foam and a baton.

I was more thinking a guy who wants to be a superhero but has no powers nor the ability to Bruce Wayne it up.  So he travels across the land, fighting evil with his fists and guile, also sometimes a revolver, but only if some motherfuckers try to step to him.

3 days of Selina torture later and i'll get my first hint of my power.

I'm thinking I'll actually give you fewer days, to be frank, in order to not be too gratuitous, because as fun as this is to write, it runs a serious risk of overstaying it's welcome.

So, do we get an intuitive understanding of the basics of our powers, or will we have to figure them all out?

The intuitive understanding is what you display at the moment you trigger. The rest is up to you.

I'm assuming I triggered. I'm not sure if I may just be hallucinating.

You might be hallucinating a whole lot of things, now that I think about. The stress does get to people sometimes.

That sounds like a fantastic way to get killed. I'd certainly accept it! You could even submit a description of what you hoped would be your trigger event, but you jinxed at the last moment by thinking about getting powers right before the magic was going to happen.

Alright, I'll do it, it'll be fun. Now, is there a character sheet or someshit?

[Beirus]

So, temporary invincibility bordering on Immovable Object status after which the effects of any damage incurred before entering the state catches up with me? Now I'm like a berserker, but without the increased strength. I'm gonna call myself Bulwark. Seems like a good name.

Can I get confirmation (from GM or player) that my power appears to be designing devices that alter probability to create coincidences for the purpose of achieving a goal brought on by my own mind scaling in size and cost the less likely it is. If so I really hope I'm not limited to one device at once otherwise I'd be stuck with this giant-ass and horribly expensive item with no way to prove it would work to potential investors. I'm thinking of going with the soon-to-be-classic name Doodad.

Just the basic stuff - name, gender, appearance, backstory. Although you probably won't get to travel the land, since this does focus on a single town. Provide all those, and we'll see if it works or not, unless Dejavu minds.

You can't get confirmation (from GM). I'm sure some of the players, if you prod them sufficiently, will be more than happy to provide you with some hypotheses, though I fail to see how they'd know much more about the power than you. I myself have decided that I really won't provide people with too many (any) OOC hints on how their powers work, by and large.

[Unholy_Pariah]

well i was gonna play cold and calculating... but joyous murderer seems more fun, all glory to the accidental personality railroad

i bet i can find or have a smaller machine built that capable of makin the owner president of zimbabwe.

[Rolepgeek]

No, Dejavu, I'm not done yet. That was a placeholder because I had to go to sleep.

That's what I was expecting. And that's why I specified "appears to be" as I'm  sometimes quite awful at guessing such things.

[Unholy_Pariah]

So you actually gonna write your action up soon?

I think i know what my power is but i need to experiment a little.

[MrVoid]

Directed at either GM, Are we getting an update today/night/whenever it is you are currently experiencing?

[RangerCado]

I don't think we are tonight Void. Though with how hard Baldman works on his writing, I think we can accept 1 missed day every now and then.

[MrVoid]

Indeed, he does good work.
