[SG] A Choice: Transit: College, Superpowers, and Drawing
« on: April 18, 2017, 10:00:56 pm »

((Hello all. Since FBYOR 2 is close to finishing, I decided I could handle another game.))
~~~
Depending on what world this book arrives in, this story may be totally believable or utter hogwash. Hopefully, you'll believe it and not be horribly aggravated when I arrive all of a sudden.

But anyways.

My name is Leona Hobbs, or simply Leo. I was just an ordinary female college student that drew comics as a hobby, until the fateful morn that most in my world remember as simply the Morning. On that Morning, I awoke... and received something unlike most of the others who awoke on that morning, and unlike most of the exceptions as well. I was offered a choice of concepts, of powers. I choose Transit.

And my life was never the same.

My name is Jimmy Gent. I was just an ordinary male, senior citizen, golfer, until the fateful morn that most in my world remember as simply the Morning. On that Morning, I awoke... and received something unlike most of the others who awoke on that morning, and unlike most of the exceptions as well. I was offered a choice of concepts, of powers. I choose Destruction.

GOD DAMN IT NRDL.
NRDL will roll a die and decide how sadistic and insane he's feeling well you do.

Bump because I would prefer to have more than one vote, though I can work with NRDL's vote if I don't get any more.

My name is Mark Sheldrake. I was an ordinary male who dropped out of college. I was a standard IT guy (who has a strong sense of justice and harbors wishes to shape a new world), until the fateful morn that most in my world remember as simply the Morning. On that Morning, I awoke... and received something unlike most of the others who awoke on that morning, and unlike most of the exceptions as well. I was offered a choice of concepts, of powers. I choose Destruction.

And my life was never the same and I will ensure the world will never be either.

It's really easy to get into Coc; trust me, all you need is one taste of Coc and you'll be begging for more! I wasn't even sure I would like Coc until after I got a taste, and now I'm all about Coc!

Y'know, there should really be a better abbreviation for Call of Cthulhu.

Destruction is far too easy and common power. I would choose Shop.

Mm. I'd plus one this template, but go for Transit as our power. That seems to be the 'freshest' option.

Personally I'd go for Domain, since it's the most fitting for any kind of artist.

Folks seem to like Leona Hobbs, so I'll put that in. I can't seem to detect consensus on what power to choose, though. Choose wisely.

Actually, I was torn between Truth and Transit and rolled some dice. Truth was the lucky winner.
I'm still okay with Transit, and I guess with that Transit has the most votes.
