I mean, does your damage build for each successive attack on the same enemy, or does it build over the course of a single battle? If I fight and kill three enemies, and then run over to another group ten feet away, do I lose all my accumulated power? None of it? What?

Essentially, each hit (if successful) will give you a short term damage buff. Different powers would have different buffs; but if you could string enough hits together you can "peak" your damage.

So..for example...using SS I could string a couple of jabs and punches together to build up my strength then turn to the big boss and lay him out with a super-buffed knockout blow?

I am in. Are channels going to have the ability to be cross-server? I thought I remember reading something about this but I do not remember the details so it may have been a dream

For Calash
Harris: First of all I would like to thank you for taking the time to appear on the program.
You are welcome.
Harris: Could you tell the viewers at home a little bit about how and why you became a hero.
I woke up this way. Data on who I was before is missing from my memory. My creator left me with one task, to fight crime and participate in the growth of the city.
Harris: What would you say is the greatest reward for being a hero?
I feel a sense of atonement for each crime I help prevent. I feel that I may have done something in the past and now I have a chance to correct my former actions.
Harris: Have you ever found there is any drawback to being a hero?
People do not like to talk to you unless it is about a crime or they need to be rescued.
What is going through your mind when you are in a dangerous situation that could lead to civilian casualties? That must be a scary situation.
Fear is not a part of the calculation. The lives of the innocent must be protected. I analyze the situation and decide the appropriate course of action that will result in the fewest lives lost.
Harris: How do you feel about people that use their powers for crime like the outcast or the super villains we starting to see around the city?
A waste of useful powers. They must be stopped. This is my primary mission.
What do you think is going through these criminals minds when they commit these acts?
The desire power. They crave the feelings and emotions that come with the power, and they choose the quickest path to these powers.
How do you feel about the various anti hero and anti mutant groups that believe heroes course more problems then they solve? Given the amount of work heroes do for the city this must be quite upsetting.
They are in error.
and finally, have you ever worked along side the Statesman? What is he like?
I have yet to meet him.
I would like to thank you for coming on the show and on behalf of the citizens of Paragon city thank you for keeping the streets safe
Interview Complete. Communication terminated. -
Calash, due to a sudden lag spike, respawns in a wall. Stuck in place he is forced to watch "The Real World" over and over again on DVD with the special editors comments and deleted scenes.
Needless to say his head explodes. -
There is a prison in brickstown
Sorry...had to -
Calash tries to read the post above and his eyes explode. Later that day a bus falls from the sky and lands on a small duck. The duck was not harmed since it was a super duck.
2 hours after that a boat springs a leak, sinking to the bottom of the ocean. Nobody was on board so everybody was fine.
Calash sprays 10000 cans of hairspray, creating a gigantic hole in the O-Zone and slowly cooking everybody in the city. One by one they all die over the next 20-30 years. -
Calash walks down the street to a small office on a unremarkable corner.
In the office is a white room with one door and no windows.
In the center of the room is a very unremarkable pedestal crowned with a while box. In the center of the box sits a solitary red button, beckoning Calash to press it.
Breaking down he runs over to the button and presses it.
Somewhere a person kills a mosquito.
Oh...and the button was the history eraser button, but the last patch broke it. -
Calash starts killing everybody softly with his song.

(ooc: Found a not bad picture for reference. http://www.necrotania.com/Download/Calash.gif )
Calash turned to look at Patriot Strike. He paused for a moment as if contemplating what she said and then released his grip on the commanders neck.
You are correct. I sho .
He stopped talking as he tried to pull his hand back. The webbing wrapped around his wrist binding to his hand. The whirring sound of the motors in his arm got louder as he tried to work his hand out of the trap. For several moments he struggled against the webbing until a couple of strands broke away and set him free, and tumbling backwards onto the ground.
For a moment Calash just laid there as if stunned. He then quickly climbed to his feet and approached Patriot Strike and Shadowborn, holding the dart in his hand.
This dart matches a dart that was shot at me a while ago. It contains a powerful tranquilizer. This is a deviation from the 5th columns standard tactics.
Calash turned to look at the commander before continuing.
He must have the information I require. -
"Let's see if they're fast enough to stop me before I can shove a handful of caltrops down your pants."
A slight laugh came from the cyborg as his more human part found the comment entertaining. It was a momentary break from his otherwise cold personality.
Calash began to walk toward the commander and the other heroes who were talking to one of the captured enemies. His uniform, though covered in a web like restraining device, was decorated identifying him as the leader.
A faint sparkle attracted his attention, a small pouch attached to one of the solders had opened during the battle. Scattered on the ground were several small darts. Calash picked one up and looked at it for a moment before continuing to the commander. He then bent down and held the dart infont of his face.
There is a 100% positive match with this dart and one that struck me. I require a explanation.
The response was more of his colorful germen followed by him spitting on the cyborgs chest. Calash was quick to respond, wrapping the fingers of his robotic arm around the commanders neck with a vice like grip, cutting off most of his ability to breath.
I require an explanation.
The voice had more anger in it this time as he held the commander by his neck. -
As soon as Shadowborn arrived Calash jumped into action. Running into the mob he sends a flurry of punches into one of the solders, quickly sending him to the ground. His friends quickly turned and opened fire sending a flurry of bullets into the fire shield, melting them before they could strike his armor.
Realizing that there bullets were no help the solders began attacking with fists, punching at the Cyborg. In retaliation Calash reached out and one of the attackers, throwing him into the group and clearing a path to the dumpster. With bullets peppering his back the Cyborg ran to the dumpster and took position near Patriot Strike. Bullets peppered his body, sending sparks flying as they chipped away at his armor.
Creating defense area, please watch your step.
A moment later the ground around Calash ignighted, sending flames high into the air, and catching one of the approaching solders on fire. In panic several of the nearby solders scattered as the flames threatened to burn them.
Calash looked at the nearby hero for a moment before speaking again.
Are you damaged? -
Calash kills a kitten
Make that 2 kittens
Ok...a lot of kittens. -
*Analysis complete. Dart contains highly potent tranquilizer. No matching records of the chemical combination*
The voice of his internal systems echoed though Calashs mind as he looked at the dart he found in his leg. It was a strong toxin and would have knocked him out in a moment had it not been for the fact that his legs were robotic. It was a small dart, so small his sencers did not detect it striking him, so he had no idea of when it had happened.
His thoughts were interrupted by a gunshots and a series of explosions rocking the street, The warm glow of fire illuminated the street as a taxi cab went up in flames. Moments later several 5th column solders walked around the corner.
*Enemy detected. Eliminate threat.*
Before the signal completed Calash charged forward, striking the lead solder and sending him flying. He turned to face the others but stopped when he saw that they were not facing him. They were staring at there commander and the female hero behind him.
*Hero scan: Patriot Strike. No file available*
*Directive 21: Do not interfere with another Hero unless requested or target hero is in danger*
Flames enveloped Calash as he activated his plasma generator. He stood there for a moment trying to analyze the situation and determine the next path.
(Calash: Fire/SS tanker. Cyborg, about 7ft tall, one robotic arm. Whole body encased in black armor with blue detailing.) -
I am not a robot.
I am an anti-social cyborg
My hero tends to keep to himself and not talk to much, so the spamming is a minimum. -
Calash has a very strong body, however his mind is weak due to the years of pain, and the interface with the technology. So he is very vulnerable to mental attacks.
This is the primary reason I made him a fire tanker. Nice effects but no resistance to mental attacks. -

HELP ME, PLEASE SOMEBODY!!
The voice of a young woman echoed through the empty alleys if Kings Row. She was trapped, surrounded by several Skulls.
Hey baby, dont be scared We only want to party with you.
The woman screamed again, begging for help. The only response was the back of the gang leaders hand as it struck her, sending here to the ground. Almost instantly her face began to swell up from the blow.
Shut up [censored] The last thing we need is a cape to ruin our fun.
The woman continued to sob uncontrollable and the gang members surrounded her. Her eyes franticly darted around searching for some way to escape, something that would help her.
A loud noise from behind the gang would be what she was searching for. The gang members turned to see a large man hidden in the shadows, glowing red eyes fixed on there actions.
Bah, stupid cape. Take him down boys!
Three of the gang members rushed into the shadows only to be sent flying back like rag dolls. The remaining gang quickly rushed toward the attackers, shooting there guns into the darkness. The sparks of metal hitting metal confirmed the bullets hit there target.
From the shadow Calash leapt into the air and landed in front of the gang. They stood for a moment in shock staring at the large Cyborg. Calash did not waste any time, punching several of them in a row, sending there bodies flying in all directions. The rest quickly pulled out various weapons and began to strike at the large target. A lucky strike with a sledge hammer sent the hero tumbling to the ground.
HA!... He aint so tough. Send him to the hospital!
The gang quickly followed the orders of there leader, slashing and smashing the Cyborg as he lay on the ground. One of the members lined up and began to swing his hammer with all his strength, intent on cracking Calashs head in two. The blow was well aimed, and moved with great speed and power.
Then the hammer stopped, a robotic hand holding the shaft of the weapon. With a small twist the shaft snapped in two, sending the one lethal weapon falling to the ground as nothing more than shattered fragments. A couple of punches later the Cyborg was now standing again and hammering away at the gang. There attacks seemed to do nothing to the giant as he tore into the mob, reducing it to a pile of unconscious bodies. He then turned toward the leader, who was holding the woman with his knife at his neck.
Stay back or she is dead! -

The story section is currently divided by server, and a separate category for origin and general RP. Individual categories can be made, and I have no problem setting up categories for people who want to group all there stories together.
There is also an image upload system if you want to display artwork in your stories.
[/shameless plug]
I do like the idea. If nothing else the RP forum could use a couple of sub-catigories to help sort things out a bit more. -
Well, in my case, it is necessary for the overall story.
If he remembered then he would most likely be a bad guy, and City of Villains is not out yet so I can not do that. Plus it makes for a very open story line, and since we are working with literally 1000's of variables the more open the story the better.
I do thing the author needs to know the past even if the character or the rest of the public does not. Never let your audience know more about your story than you
Most of the time it is not lack of a good story, it is just using one of the available plot devices to your advantage. -
Well, after responding to 1000's of classified ads and going on several dates I have found that women do not think cyborgs make goods mates.
*Sigh* -
Thanks
I did not even think of the Robocop connection until you just posted it. Heh, probably influenced my character and I did not even know it
The flashbacks are definitely in the works. I have started a story about the rescue of Lou that is going to lead into a bad memory that he will not understand.
I think what matters more is what you do with the history you select for your character, not if it is similar to any past events.
In the immortal words of General Disarray:
"Simpsons Did it!" -
For Calash:
Metallica - Seek and Destroy
For The Mighty Mini
That annoying "Im too Sexy" song -
Short version: I was a bad guy who was left to die on the operating table for years, found by a nice old person, and rebuilt as a cyborg who wants to undo his evil past that he no longer remembers.
I think it is origionalI could be wrong
