Closure

@_animus_: This hoe about to do it....yikes

@armistice: Someone auto blew up the capital city which didn't fit into the story imo. I got bitter and threw in the towel. I think I'm the only one peeved about it so I've let it go. I just want an rpg that capitalizes on that event.

(Yes I edited....cause I'm trying to get right with God y'all)

@_animus_: YES! The concept we discussed. Y'know I support that a thousand fold.

@_vex_: Battleworld has the end feel too, but that's more sandbox fun. I just feel like everyone's put in so much work, building up tensions, this fear of mutant power, the fear of powerlessness, a world filled with anxiety! Animus is on the right track. He's got it. I've just been waiting for the ball to drop tbh.

@legendary_starhero:Ahh yes....cause we'd have to follow the plot down the middle??? lol

@pyrogram: I said something, hoe. Logistics. AvX concept works fine too. A uniting factor that brings mutants and humans together through a bigger enemy that thinks he/she/they can save the world through nefarious means.

It was too much of a big event to have gone ignored. The White House has been the punching bag for a lot of folk for the most part of 2015 and after every destruction a new President has emerged. America is clearly in a state that it cannot even compose itself. Dox's post in the White House thread put all my thoughts in one piece of work so read that.

It wouldn't need to circumvent that entire concept, at least proper commentary, but I feel like this whole mutant/human concept has been boiling up...tragedy after tragedy and I feel like there needs to be one rpg that brings it all to a close. The be all end all. Venezuela vs America! Something. I just don't know what...yet.

@joseph_stark: Great. Glad I could be of some help. Now if you'll excuse me I've got to find the right look

(Also, I'm a pm away. In my time here....bouncing ideas with some peeps brought on some aha! moments more often than not)

*gets name dropped* Honestly, I'd like to thank the Academy for allowing me the opportunities to hone my craft.

@joseph_stark: Honestly, you need something within your narrative that'd jump start Joseph into getting his shit together. Maybe someone dies, his funds get cut, something that'll make him think "Fuck, I gotta step up."

For me, specifically with Clarice, I always imagined her as this unattractive dork in high school who got stomped all over. Being nice wasn't getting her anywhere, being herself made it worse, and she thought her life was over...until her powers set in. She felt like she was given this sense of purpose by God himself and to finally have power was an impetus to build a future worth a thousand words (Think Carrie without killing the student body). Clarice would force her way to the top of the mountain through her power....in order to look down on all those who once pitied her.

Where her impetus was being given power after being fragile and powerless......Joseph's can be the sense of guilt, shame, or something connected to being within his brother's shadow being thrown onto him.

However, he gives me the vibe that he's never once cared about being in his shadow. So, here in lies the gift of being in the rpg section.

INTERACTION. With a colorful cast of characters.....Joseph can go onto this new path through some measure of duress, enlightenment, or whatever floats your boat. Hit someone up, pitch an idea, and see where it takes you. I'd be willing to help if you'd like. That's unless you want this to be an internal journey.

(I do hope this was at least a bit helpful. Animus pretty much covered the main stuff)

"The damn place smells like weed,"he scoffed, his distaste for the lingering odor stemming from his brother's blatant disregard of Febreeze rather than the actual act itself. Nevertheless, he persevered through the mild inconvenience by opening the front door of the establishment, letting the shop breathe and the inner city know that Pair A'Normals Pawn was open for business.
