Perhaps the werehouse is not the best place for a hideout. A tempory one at best. Why not go underground? Literally. Surely there will be subway tunnels and if you can find some abandoned ones or make a place down there then you could go undiscovered for ages and yet be able to go almost anywhere you wish if you make the tunnels that go there or find some that already exist.

Dirt flies up in massive clods around Damien, his shovel like claws finding no resistance in the damp earth. Various machinery parts lie in a heap beside him,It appears he is trying to make a metal - enforced underground hideout of some kind.

Decided. Now its up to you to figure out where I am, as I have no idea about the geography of Berlin. I don't mind if I'm in someone's backyard, the main tunnels are all underground, reinforced by plates Damien salvaged from the cars, and all the tunnel entrances will be well hidden.

The albino drops the golden bowling ball. It lands on the ground with an unceremonious thud.

"Right... the cloud seems to give enough cover. The magnetic lattice is set up. Activating Alpha weave." Deep inside the dark cloud above the outskirts of the town, the lightning have subsided. In their stead, pure white light blazed, flash after flash - the only indication of the ongoing construction. The black-armored man, no longer caped but instead interwoven with silvery webs, worked furiously, channeling pure energy in vast quantities into his surroundings, shaping the outlines of a floating platform. Only a thin structure of metal for now, suspended in the Earth's magnetic field.

<ooc> Again, the magnitude is up to Fualkner. I know I should be pretty low on power at the moment, I'll search for sources later.</ooc>

<ooc>It seems we now have one temporary hideout, two permanents in the making, and who is Zako?</ooc>

"Mr Whiteyman, don't you need a computer first? Where do we get one?"

The kid looks around in the warehouse to see what is stored here, and then picks up the golden ball and tries to fiddle with it.

Hello? Hello? Warehouse to Darkwing Duck, come in Darkwing Duck!

<ooc> Ah ok :) Also, a werehouse is a wonderful idea (typo's provide infinite random creativity). Is it a man that turns into a house at full moon, or a house that turns into something terrible at full moon? </ooc>

<ooc>I'd say the former. I remember some children's book that had a certain character with a coat that could transform into a small house. Also, the ball is more mundane than you think. It's just gold.</ooc>

After fiddling with the golden ball somehat, and the ball not reacting to anything he tries, the kid puts it down again, obviously puzzled by it. He proceeds to take out a big felt-tip from his back-pocket and starts drawing on the ball. It now looks exactly like this:

The kid looks bored.

<ooc>Yes, it would. For the sake of not creating a history-altering paradox, crushing inalucts' foot retroactively, it is now assumed to be hollow. Or so I propose  ;)</ooc>

<ooc> Let's just assume it kinda rolled there on its own.:P I don't think it'd be hundreds of pounds though. My best estimate, not knowing the actual density of gold, is around 25-30 kilograms. </ooc>

<ooc>Assumptions are not acceptable!  ;D
The volume of a weighted bowling ball from United States Patent 6027412 multiplied by the density of gold gives us
5344 cc * 19.3 g/cc = 103139.2 g or 103.1392 kg.

Enough to shatter all the bones in your foot, and you'll need two or three adults to carry it. Therefore, I say it was/is hollow. Its purpose is still unknown AFAIK.</ooc>

<ooc>Its purpose is being a bowling ball made of gold. Even if it's hollow and weighs about 20 kilos, it's still solid gold in its purest form. I could make the gold into bars, but they're a more complex shape and couldn't be made in such an offhand manner. :)</ooc>

((Sorry guys, I had a hellish day, preparing for a French Revolution test I took today. Vive la Revolution! Anyway, to the game...))

@Sean: You are able to create a lightweight metal platform, a 50' diameter circle, however the act nearly drains you of all energy. Anything else will completely empty you.

@deadly: Your tunnels are of reasonably sturdy construction, however the material you were able to carry from the garage was only enough for about 20 feet of 6-foot diameter tunnels. ((I assume you are building in the warehouse, correct?))

@Siquo: The things in this warehouse are bits and peices: 2x4's, cheap furniture, lightbulbs, hand tools, flash drives and cloth to name a few of the things you've found. There isn't a true organization to the place, at least not one that is obvious right now. (Also, bonus points for the RP.)

((If I missed anyone, quote your post. Also, a few of you have asked about how to recharge energy. Well, for basic (organic) functions, food will do. A charge-up for basic machinery will work too. However, tasty human souls are always the best energy, especially for big jobs, like creating matter *cough* Sean */cough* You could pull massive amounts of electrical energy, but that is still quite weak. Also, souls can boost your powers to new heights, allowing you to level up in a sense.))
