I.e. A simple color scheme would make me sad if true.
I agree with this. Ephebe's for example, was described similarly to an ever-flowing 'sand' type effect (as in, the Sands of Time), whereas some of the other descriptions seek to inspire emotion rather than, say, colour.
Remember that the auras aren't necessarily restricted to mere sight - and certainly not to any colours that we mortals would recognize. These are mind-boggling powers we are dealing with, and our characters have been equipped for such things by their status as Champions. We need not restrict ourselves to what mortal senses might offer ;)
To me, this means, be creative and ask the Champion's player if you aren't sure.

Nala's aura is sparkly. Because that seems appropriate for Luck. Just a general impression of sparkliness. :)
And I've already described Ephebe's as mentioned by FCD.
And Keme doesn't have a Champion aura anymore.
Mostly I leave the description of Champion auras entirely to the player's discretion.
Speaking of Champion auras....is Tybs perchance not in conversation with people right now? If Tryko'Sam and Asha aren't going with him to check on Melody that means he's walking along in the hall right? I've only been looking for an opportunity for this for weeks now...Mercy is patient, but it's getting a bit ridiculous. ;P

I'll post something for Dom when I can. I've been rather busy.

I'm not sure if they've decided to split yet.
I know I need to post, so let me lookasee. ;)
Tybs' aura has a visual, but comes with a sense of total non hostility. You get the feeling that there is nothing you could do to make him want to hurt you.
(Not that there aren't things, but that's how it feels. ;) )

Hey Lyn, I know you've been super busy this semester, and a lot of your PCs aren't doing anything important, but could you update us on them at some point?
Dennis, Tamina, and Morrivan are the ones I'm interested in, but if you could do them all, even in one big OOC post as opposed to in character posts for each one, I would appreciate it.

what is it with all this redacted stuff.
I am starting to feel like...

no, you haven't gone near the upper limit of character power
I'd say most of your characters are either Par or Birdielynora |

Your characters are fine. The virus is an antagonist. Those are allowed to be off the charts crazy. It's what it takes to challenge folks at Avalon, at the level of power they're currently at.

Hmmm. Actually I mentioned what all of those three were doing, it's just been a while. Dennis was directing ground traffic control while Jiminy was directing things at the sun. Dennis might make a brief appearance to explain to Jiminy that Aananda has temporarily appropriated the factory facilities to manufacture antiviral nanites to treat a plague. Tami was comforting Morrivan who was having a hard time dealing with both her cousin's death and her breakup with Sadie. I should probably have them show up for dinner soon. I just hadn't quite got around to it yet.

Also, in Kuros, was there anything else you guys were wanting to do specifically or are we just going to handwave/narrate the rest of the cleanup? I don't want to drag things out past the point that people found things interesting. And who was supposed to be showing up with that demiplane? Also, what happened with the whole request from Ghalen to the headmaster about contacting Tyrrin's mom to help determine if the virus was able to be contained in Kuros or not?

I'm trying not to move things forward too much at the moment since wrapping up the Kuros stuff, the last shuttle coming down from the sun, and the aftermath from all of that is all going to happen in rapid succession once I do and I'm waiting on some answers from people that I need in order to move things along. In case anyone was wondering why I hadn't posted to the game thread in a while.

(Also, yes, I'm ready to move on. I just want to know for something i plan on doing.)
Tybalt Baneko |
Sounds like the Kuros team could use a lot of walls. Like. A lot.

I had Tyrrin come in and fill people in. Other than that I'm good to move forward. I thought we were waiting on Ryo for the last bit with Denulia.

Hey Lyn, this was part of my last pm, and I'm not sure if there was anything else important in that one, but I can ask this here:
If you would allow it, would controlling the actions of my bottled slimes be a feat, an int based skill, or a language I just tell the what to do in?
Either way, I would like to take Ooze as a language. It would be fun for him to talk with them. Also would be fun for him to understand what Roel says when he makes those noises.
This is just something I wanted to finalize before I post for him.
Not that it's holding anything up, I still don't know where I'll put him in.
:)

Ooze "language" is a set of very simple "words" conveyed through various sounds.
The "words" have no real "translated" meaning, and transmit mostly "emotions" and weather the subject is prey or not.
Is two sentient individuals were to share it, it would likely allow a sharing of emotions beyond what normal language would allow, just below empathetic telepathy.

Edit because edit: That.... would actually be a great thing for relationships. Turn both people to oozes and tell each other how you really feel. Like REALLY feel. Heh...
Just because you've got the body, doesn't mean you know the language.
Transforming into a fire elemental doesn't teach you how to speak ignan.
Also, empathy is a 1st level psion power.
