...to found a super group.
I picked Triumph, since it's supposed to be relatively empty.
Now, Rev, Foxboy, and the Lovely Wife will perhaps remember our improvising a magical girl team on Virtue several days back. At about that point, the idea of creating a mahou shoujo SG and raising it up as an organized concept from level one on lodged itself in my brain and has flat-out refused to go away.
And yes, I fully recognize that the Mirror sibs and Kingdom have already pretty much beaten me to most of this punch. I'm trying to placate my muse, here, not be original.
Of course, the minimum level requirement for SG founding is a bit of a bump on the 'all at once' part of the concept.
At this point I've managed to dream up titles and potential powersets for a full eleven characters. There'd be room for Kamen types, of course - male or female, even - but I'd prefer to get all the girls spoken for before investing anything in them.
Which just means they'd need to be pitched beforehand, rather than showing up. ^_^
So, without further ado, I give you The Facets of The Yrmaw:
Inez of the Wildfire - Evil Midnight Lurker
Blaster: Fire Blast/Fire Manipulation
Lia of the Sea - His Lovely Wife
Blaster: Energy Blast/Ice Manipulation
Rina of the Shadow - Morganni
Scrapper: Dark Melee/Dark Armor
Lloelie of the Songs - Hunterminator
Controller: Mind Control/Sonic Resonance
Grace of the Spirit - Acyl
Defender: Empathy/Psychic Blast
Tonya of the Snows - Foxboy
Blaster: Ice Blast/Ice Manipulation
Yin of the Spheres - Chibi Konatsu
Controller: Gravity Control/Kinetics
Satomi of the Stars - Drenevian
Defender: Radiation Emission/Radiation Blast
Sara of the Earth - Valles
Dominator: Plant Control/Firey Assault
Sasha of the Storm - Sweno
Controller: Gravity Control/Storm Summoning
Kara of the Thunder - Valles
Blaster: Electrical Blast/Electricity Manipulation
Yes, most of those combinations are rather obvious. They seem apropos nontheless. I'll wait to see how much - if any - interest there is before I start getting into backstory and costuming instructions and such...
Ja, -n

"Puripuri puripuri... Bang!"

As the subject line suggests, I went and wrote myself up as a Naruto self-insert character.
Yeap. SI. I don't normally do this, so I'm not sure why. Well, okay, the stuff here sorta popped into my head a couple nights ago, while I was trying to sleep. So I scribbled it down, and then I had a really strange dream...
And then, of course, there's the wonderful stuff Griever, ClassicDrogn, Drakensis and Nathan have been doing. Certainly an influence, there.
This really isn't a story, it's just a character sketch in prose. I dunno if I'll ever do anything with this.
That said, I've already written a bit of Naruto fanfic (about the Waterfall village, entitled "Lesser Nin"), and I've got a couple story ideas revolving around the canon Leaf-nin cast in Konoha. So this might still see the light of day. Sometime. I should probably run through those ideas in a seperate thread, but anyway...

as Lady Nogitsune dinged 49, she was on a mission with this npc:
Becky, the Tarantula Mistress: This is like, so totally grody!
Becky, the Tarantula Mistress: Like, Ohmigawd! Lady Nogitsune! We are so gonna totally rock now!
Becky, the Tarantula Mistress: Like, I have always SOOO wanted to meet you!
Becky, the Tarantula Mistress: And now we can like, totally fight together and all sorts of stuff.
Becky, the Tarantula Mistress: All the other Fortunatas were all TOTALLY like 'Tarantula Program? Eeew!'
Becky, the Tarantula Mistress: And then they were like, 'Like, what are you thinking, Becky?'
Becky, the Tarantula Mistress: And I was totally like 'I'll get to meet all kinds of interesting people and stuff.'
Becky, the Tarantula Mistress: And look, here I am, like, totally fighting alongside YOU!
Becky, the Tarantula Mistress: This is even better then when I worked with Silver Mantis.
Becky, the Tarantula Mistress: She's, like, totally uptight, until you get to know her, y'know?
Becky, the Tarantula Mistress: But this is sooo much better than that.

As ninety-nine crab rangoons go by...

Even in a city where many citizens dress in unique costumes to battle real mystical threats, Halloween is a special time of year. While Paragon City's Halloween holiday was dampened last year by renewed hostilities from the Rogue Isles, this year's October events look to be even more promising than before, with record numbers of citizens all over the city ready to welcome trick-or-treaters of all ages.
However, a dark shadow has fallen over this year's festivities. Word has spread from the shadowed town of Croatoa that strange things are headed south to spoil the holiday with their own evil celebrations. With the location of the Malleus Mundi still a mystery following it's disappearance last year, it's feared that new creatures might appear on the city streets. There have already been rumors that the Unseelie court may be sending fiends to paragon City to join the Vampires and werewolves that stalk the night on All Hallows Eve. Now there have even been sightings that the fearsome giant Jack-in-Irons has been seen heading south to join the Pumpkin King.
To combat this dark tide, Croatoa's Ravenwing Cabal has offered to help by encouraging heroes not only to fight these dangers, but also to enjoy the holiday. Heroes are encouraged to look for Ravenwing Cabal member Annah in Croatoa to learn more once the Halloween festivities begin. There are even rumors that a rogue member of the Cabal called "Granny Beldam" has plans to offer the same encouragements to villains from somewhere in the Nerva Archipelago. It remains to be seen if the villains of the Rogue Isles will appreciate any festivity, despite Lord Recluse's orders for mandatory Halloween cheer among the populace.

Although it's never been formalized, the current incarnation of the Legendary started out with three "leaders" with the rank of Legend: Evangelia, Lora'Lai, and Aegis Sanctuary. Now, with the kickage of Aegis from the group for nearly a year's inactivity, her space is open. Now we can simply ignore it and run with two leaders, but it seems to me that it would be better to replace her, and that the fair thing to do is open up the floor to nominations for her replacement.
Mind you, I'm doing this on the spur of the moment. I haven't talked to Logan about this, nor do I have a system for handling it worked up. But I'd at least like to place it before the group at large for discussion.
I don't think it's necessary that a nominee be of Commander rank, btw, as long as they've been good and supportive members of the group.
I'm going to pin this thread to the top of the forum until we determine something one way or another.
Have at it, folks!

A week ago, I posted a notice in the General Discussion forum of the Teikoku Kagekidan: 1940 area, asking if the project were dead in the water.
I got no responses save for Chris Davies post today which said, essentially, "It's dead, Jim."
This is your last chance. Unless someone presents compelling reasons to the contrary, Teikoku Kagekidan: 1940 will be going the way of the dodo within 48 hours.
