Throw Questions at the Proto Man

[Carn_Val]

for Lv 1's like me, can we get like a basic special move/transformation strictly for the event purpose? eg. Andrenaline Rush which gives stat boosts or Replenish which either patches wounds or something decided by RNG? Doesn't really have to be like that though.

[Schwi Dola]

What about a level 0 super move for those without any super moves, costing 1 SP and being a charged attack of a move they have (or a punch in the rare case of those with physical strength and no moves). This would be half the strength of a tier 1 super move, and which normal move they get upgraded to a level 0 super move (can still use the normal version) determined on signup.

[Proto Man]

If Moves don't actually affect F2F, what about Powers? Survival, for instance, significantly deters the disadvantage for having damage taken allowing you to fight at full strength until you've died.

Oh, you do raise an interesting point given how the power is worded. I'll have to ruminate on this.

Its been said more than once when people approved something they can't use that they can't buy it until they can use it and it IS in the rules.

And you've made it a rule that they couldn't buy the super move during DA as you can't buy anything during DA.

Line 1 - True. I'd consider this an exception.

Line 2 - Correct. They'd would have to have it lined up before hand.

Other Desco Quote -> ... I like this idea. Sort of like, they can still use their SP in desperation situations.

[PepsiWhirda]

Is there a way to avoid the Omniverse-wide recognition of winning the competition? For example, could I create an artefact that makes people forget who I am when they see me? Something like that?

[Proto Man]

Yes, that would be the one way you could pull it off.

[Erza Scarlet]

What happens to your SP if you level up during DA? Does the collar just accept it and let you have +1, or does it remain stagnant?

[Proto Man]

Remains the same.

I didn't want people like... holding off on levelin' or something to try and gain an extra SP during the competition.

[Atelos]

What happens when someone tries to summon or for example Gilgamesh tries to open up a portal? Nothing happens or is it a shocking feedback from the collar?

[Proto Man]

...

Shock.

Because that'd be more humiliating.

[Deadpool]

Can we swim in the water

[Proto Man]

Yes, you may swim in the ocean if you're in a square involving ocean (be aware that doing so doesn't prevent you from being F2F'd or anything like that)

All of the squares that are completely ocean will start off as Danger Zones.

So you can swim there... but you probably won't be terribly happy when you get there.

[Proto Man]

Couldn't you try and take off someone else's collar to kill them, or will it backfire?

Yes and no.

Yes because I might decide someone will die in a F2F, and their death might involve their collar being ripped off or broken by their opponent. The same might be true if someone tries to backstab and ally, the F2F might start with them trying to rip off the persons collar.

Also because someone could, if they wanted to, commit suicide by prying their collar off

In terms of backfire - the collar doesn't create a huge mess when it goes off.

No, because I'd kick someone out if they just decided to write their character ripping off their friends collar.

Obviously since I control confrontations, I would be the one handling this scenario. But it is possible. The collars are on pretty tight, but they aren't like, fused onto people's necks.

DIO

I don't think I answered this, but your stuff would be up to you to decide if you wanted to bring it or not (your weakness). If you didn't want to, you could say that the sun in Dante Verse is different from the sun in the Omniverse . If you wanted to, you could just say it is.

[Deadpool]

How will we find out our powers have been stripped? IC speaking, of course

[Proto Man]

The registration people will inform you in general. There's a place in the 'pre-show' facility where characters can double-check, and then a few OOC days before Day 1, characters will be collared and receive a list.

[Deadpool]

Cool

[Gildarts]

Is insight among one of the powers stripped ?

[Alain the Carnedge]

I believe Proto said earlier that Insight was allowed.

[Proto Man]

That I did.

[Strazio Rockwell]

Will my obligation to defend Darkshire once a week be lifted temporarily for DA?

[Proto Man]

You mean once a month?

But yes, it'd be lifted for DA.
