Riser Power Redemption for Chester

Quote:

CIPHER HANDS

By waving his palm over any words that are visible (written, carved, etc.) and in a language he understands, Chester has the ability to encode those words into an unbreakable cipher. If he waves his hand over the words again, he can decode them as well. While he's doing this, the text shimmers slightly.

I will gladly remove the shimmer since it's just for the ooo magic factor, but I would really like both the encoding and decoding if possible, since without both things are just weird. If that doesn't work, just give him the encoding for now and I'll earn the decoding later. Running around town turning all the books into unreadable messes. Let's do this.

Old Trouble
Algie has never quite fit the molds he's tried to fit himself into. All his life he's striven to push himself into the role that others would need of him, whether it be son or student or athlete, and only as an adult carved a small niche of his own as a writer of supernatural crime novels. He's always been a little too polite, a little too proper, and even young was called 'an old man'.

After his mother's death in his late twenties, Algie made a few bad decisions that not only got him on low-level radar of the British media due to the mild popularity of his writing, but also left him with a daughter (as well as her mother who wasn't and never would be his wife). He's since done his best to drop off of the radar, still quietly working and living with his father while becoming an absentee father in his own right. He found himself uncomfortably uninspired. Algie was invited to the college last year for a job and a friend in the town encouraged that the place itself might lend well to his writing.

He's once again a man out of place- the wrong side of the pond, surrounded by near-strangers, and seeking some sort of inspiration.

Revised Trouble
Algie has never quite fit the molds he's tried to fit himself into. All his life he's strived to push himself into the role that others would need of him, whether it be son or academic or to mix with people above his station, and only as an adult made a place for himself as a popular writer of supernatural crime novels. He's always been a little too polite, a little too proper, and even young was called 'an old man'.

After coming to Ashdown he has carved himself another small niche, this time as a husband and a mentor to others. He still resists, though perhaps it is simply in his nature to doubt and be stubborn. Despite growth in his powers he remains ever feeling like he is floundering in the footsteps of 'others', perhaps other selves, who have come before. Even his place as a noble feels unnatural, like a choice he was forced to make to survive. Needed but not necessarily wanted.

He continues to be a man out of place- uncomfortably wading through a life that he sometimes isn't sure he's chosen for himself at all.

Reason
Not a change so much as a revision/update to be more relevant to the current storyline and Alg no longer being 'new to town'. Less focus on his life back in england, grounded in his time here.

Requesting entry into the library!
-Shun wishes to explore the library in search of Heliodora's notes on the sealing spell. He wants to try and recover whatever he could, so that they have a backup plan in case things go to s**t with the Enemy.

I think Shun shouldn't go this alone wink Get a buddy and I'll be happy to do this RP with you.

Beyond Power Redemption for Rabbit

Quote:

SIREN'S CALL

Rabbit possesses the ability to send a mental alert to the last three visitors he spoke to or saw, even if he is not aware of their visitor status, broadcasting the severity of the situation he is calling them about and his specific location. The initial call is insistent enough to wake a moderately deep sleeper, but it is easily ignored after that, unless the person is willing to help. In that instance, the location beacon will remain accessible to them until 1) it has guided the visitor to Rabbit, 2) the danger has ceased, or 3) the helper has lost interest in helping. The beacon can cross between regular Ashdown and the otherworld, and vice versa.

This power will be involuntary the first time it is used. After that, Rabbit will be able to control it, so as not to cause a panic when he is startled but help is not actually needed. The "last three visitors he spoke to or saw" part is meant to offer a reason for players to gracefully back out of having their characters summoned, since Rabbit might have laid eyes on someone he didn't interact closely with, and therefore that person would be summoned instead of the one who is expected.

Beyond Growth Power for Shun Kuroda
Shadowstep - A short range teleportation ability. Up to 50ft in any direction within his line of sight. He cannot pass through solid or magical barriers with this. He can only do this a couple of times in quick succession before he has to 'rest' for a little while before he can blink again. When doing this, the simply appears to vanish and reappear wherever his target location is, though a few wisps of shadow can briefly be seen upon him disappearing.

Bonus power
Same post but at the bottom
Shadowstep +1 - An upgrade for shadowstep, which would basically allow him to carry/bring anything he can normally lift up with him as he teleports. In the case that this something is a living being, they must be willing for him to bring them along. He has to be in physical contact with whatever he's 'carrying'. Bringing heavier things along is also more draining on him than if he's popping around a normal load.
