Quietly in the dark men and women sit in a conference room. Not a sound or steer was made, their faces still and eyes perpetually fixed on the holographic video screen that loomed over the center of the mahogany conference table. 

The very essence of hate and anger was set upon them. It was a fact that a good few in the amalgam world of the Omniverse -knew their name. The few who did though knew their infamy and feared it. An old phrase was best known for them, it was a saying that truly defined who they were.

Cut off one head and two more shall take its place. These. These very words were the words of Hydra. Ever since the second great war, they had been bent on world domination and no god-like being or some different world would stop them. It was set in stone by the corrupted Captain America that their reach would overtake every verse and by now it was starting to look like a possible goal. 

Entrapped in their thoughts they continue to watch the vid screen. The screen was broadcasting of the news. ONN on that matter was playing, it was a credible news source even besides the fact that it was a copycat of CNN. The image stilled on the screen was the site of destruction. It was the utter defeat Avengers and the ransacking of their beloved home. An icon destroyed, Hydra's greatest gift and the Avengers greatest humiliation. How could they avenge anyone if they couldn't do it for themselves? The whole Omniverse was watching now and it was time for Hydra to make its next move on the chess board.

"What happened to the vigilante group? What does this mean for the controversial reputation of the Avengers?... And now for a brief discussion on the Omniverse's most interesting superhero The Vision... Who is the Avengers mysterious man in white?... I think its safe to say that Captain America stood for something bigger than the picture at hand... I'm starting to believe we're what some have already called an age of Marvels."    

The holo-screen jumped back and forth channels picking up tidbits on what the press was covering on the Avengers. Tobacco smoke gradually worked its way to the screen surrounding it with the pungent smell. Lord Carlton gave out a deep cackle as he took a long drag from his oversized cigar. His monocle made his left eye bulge out like he was some kind of bug. Normally he would wear a suit and tie but for this special occasion, he wore the green and yellow uniform of Hydra.

"So it seems that your attack on the Avengers tower was successful Baron Zemo," Carlton said taking another long drag of his cigar.

Zemo on the left of him was transfixed with the fallen Captain America's shield. His yellow gloved fingers brisked it, to him it was a paramount victory that his longtime enemy was finally dead but he had to thank him. If it weren't for him establishing the new order of Hydra the grand victory of the mighty Avengers would have never come to pass. 

"Yes indeed Kommandant Carton it was our finest hour but I am lead to believe that there will be more victories to come?" Zemo asked lifting his head to face Lord Carlton. 

"Of course there are more testaments to win but the grand prize out of this isn't to discuss the victories we've won here. No were gathered hear because in the process of the destruction of there tower it is that we have acquired there most prized possession of all: their information database is all but ours!" Carlton said before taking a moment to gather who was all sitting in the conference room. Everyone was accounted for: Raoul Busman, the assassin Steve Johnson, Baron Zemo, Warlord and his sister Minerva, the mischievous Rando, and the Novan businesswomen. All of this wasn't just the gathering of Hydra but the gathering of the Heroic Avengers greatest foes. 

"With the information passed and the pleasantries finished I can officially say that the information Database has already benefited us in many ways. But I believe in there is one thing that proves to be our greatest chance at a supreme victory over the entire omniverse." Lord Carlton took a moment to let the anticipation etch in. "I am sure that both you Baron Zemo and Mr. Bushman are familiar with the Cosmic Cube?" 

Bushman's eyes widened at Carlton's very words.

"You mean..." He said taking his own cigar out of his face painted mouth. 

Zemo dropped the shield to the ground and straightened up in his seat. 

"The Omniverse has just become larger. That power untested could destroy this entire chained multiverse." Zemo's words lingered to whisper. "Johhna Schmidt, why do you always haunt us?"  

"Indeed, my good Baron. The Labcoats themselves believes so as well. Now! My dear Minerva, good chap Warlord, and prominent Rando; it saddens me that we cannot locate this magnificent cube until we have the full spectrum of its power signature. It so happens though that the Imperial Research and Development building Coruscant has what we need." Lord Carlton took in a moment to breathe and lit another cigar. "Are you three up for such a task?"

"I am not a thief, Carlton, I am a warrior!" Warlord growled, offended by the proposition.

"Duncan, please," Minerva said to her brother calmingly She turned back to Carlton. "All due respect, Lord Carlton, but he's right. We aren't well-versed in espionage."

"Oh, there is no espionage in this mission. No No the plan here is not only to steal the source code but it is also to folly the Avengers once and for all. Hydra is supplying you with some of the best men and something special. A gamma bomb." 

Rando stood up from his giving a nod. "I don't care what we do. All I care about is the death of the Avengers. I want revenge for what they did to my island." Rando stepped away from the table and made his way to the door before turning back "If you need me I'll be in the hanger bay." 

"HA! That is much more my language." Duncan crossed his arms and leaned back, a satisfied expression on his face.

His sister, however, was much more concerned. Minerva furrowed her brow and put a hand on her hip. "It's a ploy, you want to bait the trap by stealing the code and then detonate the bomb once the Avengers arrive?"

"Yes indeed, trick them into a fight and when you have the code leave before the bomb is set off." 

"I'm impressed." The woman nodded in thought.

"Then you're both in?" 

"Hell yeah!" Ducan shouted enthusiastically. 

His sister agreed as well, albeit in a more reserved manner. "I'll need to see the troops you'll be giving us so I can prep them."

"Of Course, excellent. Hail Hydra," Cackling his face grew into a large smile that almost seemed to make his face snap.

I require a certain blade to be modified so that the blade appears to be made out of green energy. Specifically, this one, if someone would do it for me. 

I sent through a donation and chose to have my switch cooldown reset. Could I also have my Rest Points reset too (if it needs it).

Character name: Cell

Character source: Dragon Ball Z

Character history: Immediately after his death at the hands of Gohan

Physical Description: First form



Stats:
ATK: 2
DEF: 2
SPD: 3
TEC: 3

Starting Proficiencies: (2600) Physical (1000), Ranged (1000), Area Attack (600)

Starting Powers: (1800) Flight (1800)

Starting Moves: (600) Tail (300) (Requires Physical) - a six foot long tail with a yellow spike on its end. Usable in combat and generally as another limb.

Ki Blast (300) (Requires Ranged, Area Attack) - by focusing his ki, Cell can form a volleyball-sized orb of yellow-rimmed energy in one of his palms. Driving his hand towards a target, Koola launches the charged energy and erupts in a metre wide explosion on contact with a surface or opponent. It takes a brief second to reform the energy in between blasts, but he can chain these together by alternating his hands. This attack deals similar damage to a standard punch or kick, but can be utilized at a range of about one kilometer and moves as quickly as a bullet. The ease of this attack allows Koola to fire it while moving. 

I confirm that I have read and agreed to the Rules of Conduct.

Change my name to Jeff, please. I haven't decided on a character to switch to yet, but I don't wanna sit on a character someone else wants.

Ada would probably get this mug. It has a freakin' key hole so other people can't use it without spilling their drink. Petty.

Also this:


Jade.... Jade would 100% get a crochet hat like this one, you can believe that. And this adorkable cookie cutter.

So. What would your characters buy?

Leo couldn't move, not a single muscle. But he tried, and when that proved fruitless, he kept doing so anyways. "Not again", he thought. "Not again! Never again...!"

The darkness was all-consuming. There was nothing to see, nothing to feel, and, as he proved, nothing to do either. He was at the whims of yet another of his nightmares. Panic was starting to build inside of him. He promised himself that he'll never allow his fear to stop him ever again. But, as always, his dreams were there to remind him of how pathetic he actually was.

But wait... where was Michella?

A figure appeared in front of him. It was definetely not her.

The vaguely humanoid man started to talk, but Leo couldn't hear anything of what he said. His mind was too busy crying and screaming to pay any attention.

The figure gave Leo what appeared to be an orb made of... something. His body moved on its own and took it, without any input from him whatsoever. Even his own body was beyond his control.

"No!", he thought. "I don't want it! I don't want anything from you! Leave me alone!". He didn't need any more stuff from "superior beings" given against his will.

He wanted to throw the ball to the featureless man, but that, too, was too much to ask.

Omni Wrote:“That’s all you need to know right now. You’ll figure out the rest soon enough. I’ll be watching … and waiting.”

Basically what I'd like to know is: can I write Hijiri as being extremely rich, or will I be penalised or forced to edit my posts if I do?

My reasoning is that a Base costs 1k OM, and I currently have 8k unspent. If we assume that a Base is the same price as a normal house (even though many are considerably larger than that) then that'd mean they should probably cost at least £/$/€100k ... which means Hijiri isn't far off being a millionaire.

Also, we're allowed to summon Secondaries and vehicles for free, so presumably all Primes are allowed to be represented as having a fair bit of wealth IC.

On the other hand... a normal gun costs 300 OM, which kinda screws over my theory, since guns obviously don't cost £3k each...

So... can I do this?
It'll not give him any OOC benefits, but it will let me justify IC buying a sweet Base when I eventually get around to it, as well as a whole bunch of Forces when they're released...

Just gonna move my bullshit into a separate thread so as to not clog up the Move Creation Workshop
Original bullshittery here: http://omniverse-rpg.com/showthread.php?...#pid120589
and onwards.
And Alex's thoughts: http://omniverse-rpg.com/showthread.php?...#pid120699
Sorry to make more work for you, it's just been like 2 weeks and I still don't know what's going on ._.

Basically, where's the fine line that separates moves that require Telepathy from those that don't?
Judgments seem to vary on whether like half of the Lampad's Torch uses require it.
Notably, moves like "Uncertainty," which inspires hallucinations in sensory powers, "Folie à Deux," which inspires delusions in Telepaths, and "Delusional Meltdown," which suppresses sanity and inspires pure delusion, were all judged to not need Telepathy.
(See Lampad's Torch here: http://omniverse-rpg.com/showthread.php?...#pid102405)
(See Delusional Meltdown here: http://omniverse-rpg.com/showthread.php?...#pid118870)

On the other side of this, "Am I Seeing Things?" (which can be seen in that first link), was judged to require it. And now suddenly there's debate about whether my previous moves need it too, or what makes "Am I Seeing Things?" different from them, or what.
Again, sorry about making everything so difficult ._.
