Inactive Prime trapped in an object plot idea?
#1
Alright, so! Dean Winchester and I had a thread going in the Endless Dunes. Unfortunately, he’s being deployed for roughly a year, maybe two years, I’m not certain on the specifics (he doesn’t know exactly when he will return). [Going Away Topic post.] But, he will most likely be coming back! So we devised a little plan over Skype so that our characters could continue to travel together, though not necessarily with Dean (the character and writer) being 100% there.
 
Dean has a move called the First Blade, which has been approved for 300 OM. We thought that maybe Dean could be absorbed by the First Blade and— after I purchase this move for my character – they could continue to travel together, with my character fully aware that Dean is inside the blade but unsure of how to get him out. And then a cool storyline is unleashed to extract him, right up until the moment Dean returns! And if he does not return, well, maybe my character was just talking to an inanimate object the whole time.
 
Here is the (approved) move description!

[spoiler] First Blade
 
The First Blade is a jawbone of a donkey that is connected to the Mark of Cain. The blade itself is about one foot in length and the hilt is simply just part of the bone that was been wrapped in leather. It is generally carried sheathed on Deans hip. When he holds this blade in hand Dean seems to get angrier and prone to attack for even the smallest slight. When wielded it causes the mark of Cain and the veins surrounding it to glow red.

There’s the question of whether or not this would be acceptable, of course, but also if I would need Fusion and Symbiosis in order to carry it out (I don’t want an unfair advantage over anyone, latching Dean’s stats onto my character when I’m just borrowing a move and using his absent character as a plot device, though). I noticed today that Dean’s roster has been archived for a while, as well, so I was hoping to maybe ask that he be reactivated please, just for the sake of ensuring that no one else joins under that character name? If not, that's fine.
 
I recall that there was a discussion thread about this earlier on and the general consensus was to just write the inactive character out ASAP, but this plan seemed like an interesting plot thing to me and almost the same concept as that. I wouldn’t have to write for his character, because he would be an inanimate object, and he couldn't aid my character in combat beyond the First Blade acting as a regular move. He would be gone, but not forgotten, I guess? And still technically ‘there’.
 
Anyway, yeah. Thanks, I understand this is a bit of an odd request.

I don't mind Dean being held while Dean is away and continued to be used as an NPC in whatever fashion. But attaching his stats is a no-go unless it's just for storyline fodder or versus NPCs. If he's not here himself, he doesn't contribute in any way.

I think that's what you meant ... but, yeah!
Curious about me and the characters I play? See the 'Staff' page! See also the rosters for my characters Samus Aran or Enel if you'd like to see examples of well-formatted rosters. Hope you enjoy the Omniverse!

Big Grin Neat! I'll submit a form!
