CH 2B: Training Day 2: This time is Theoretical

[Renekin Skywalker]

"Well, you all came back I see." Karson says, seeing the six of them arranged. "I've just gotten word that we will have a new member today. Which is good, since seven is more than six."

With that, Jamison, without wings, preferably, is walked in to a chair. "Everyone, say hello to Tharsis."

"Well, hollo, latest member!" Sock-puppet man chirps.

[Mierin]

Miranda turns to Tharsis and nods at him in greeting. "G'day." she says with a polite smile. Wearing black jeans and a dark blue long sleeved shirt, her red hair is tied into a ponytail. She then finds a seat and waits for the meeting to start.

[kurff]

"How are ya?" Quinn grinned as he looked at the new teammate.He too wore a long sleave shirt and pair form fitting Khakis that seemed tougher and better modified for action.

[dakota]

With his sword tucked in the knapsack he carried, zipper open just in case, Jamison took his seat. " Nice to meet you all." He said politely, knowing he probably looked out of place with his short sleeved shirt, jeans and sandals, but he knew that was one of the perks of a transformation to his alter ego.

[Renekin Skywalker]

Jamison quickly notices that he was beaten to the casual-clothing punch by the Aussie girl.

Power Armour and Trouble Shooter each in turn nod and introduce themselves to Jamison.

[dakota]

Jamison noticed the others were still sort of focusing on him. He gulped, then smiled slightly, " Right. Is the part I'm supposed to tell you all about myself? I'd show you, but I need a little more room to spread my wings, but I'm guessing Durandel convinced me to join you to give a little aerial support." He didn't add that he had jumped at the chance.

[doc]

Revenant nods to Jason while taking a seat. "Hey" His eyes look a little red from lack of sleep.

[Renekin Skywalker]

"Well, that's just super." Says Sock-Puppet man, in is usual, ungodly chipper tone. "You met Durandel. You must be super keen about that."

"Now that you're all here..." Karson says, getting control of the crowd, as it were. "It's time for day two. Without using them, tell me about your abilities." He points at Power Armour to get things started.

Suddenly on the spot, PowerArmour looks up and around. "Well... heh..." He pockets the game machine he was playing. "My powers include the ability to grow a kind of metal armour and shoot metal darts and I can make metal weapons too... but not like Speed Metal, where he turns into metal? It's really just armour. Oh, and I'm wicked tough."

"And a grandmaster of MMORPGs, hmm?" Karson said, confiscating the game device. "Next?"

[doc]

"my powers are all due to surgical modifications and the insertion of a secondary nervous system. I can extrude a psuedo-metallic smart-polymer, mostly based on carbon macro-molecules and nano-tubes, into a protective sheath. I also have a built-in sliding radar system allowing me real-time immersive 360-degree battlefield perception. Advanced of bio-metric analysis software increases accuracy and identifies target weakpoints, as well as giving me strong prediction of opponent actions. I also have a fully functional ECM suite." Revenant says rather plainly.

[dakota]

Jamison was a little bewildered, " And hopefully someone can translate that into english. " He grinned, hoping someone else found his nerdy sense of humor amusing. " I'm afraid mine is nowhere's as technical. I transform sprout a pair of golden wings that let me fly pretty fast or I can wrap them around me like a shield if need be, thanks to my connect with this." He pulled the sword out of his knapsack. " I can also use it to turn invisible, or shoot lightning bolts. Oh yeah, when I transform, I become pretty strong too, but I've never push it to see just how strong."

[Mierin]

Miranda has the same look of confusion as Jamison after Revenant's so called simple explanation of his abilities. She chuckles at Jamison's remark and says with a grin, "I caught some of that, but most of it went right over my head and embedded itself into the ceiling."

Standing up, she says "I have healing abilities, though sadly they are restricted to only being able to heal myself. I also have what is called an extraordinary mental endurance, which has probably kept me from going insane from everything I've seen over the past couple of years and I can manipulate kinetic energy. Lastly, I have two different forms, fire and ice. I also seem to gain new abilities every few years - the fire form is new and I'm still learning all the abilities that come with it." Miranda looks at the others to see if there are any questions, and if there aren't, she'll take her seat again.

[kurff]

"I guess that means I'm a Token non-Metahuman..." Quinn answered as he stood up, "I have no powers, only a simple Magician with a few tricks up my tuxedo covered sleeves." then sat back down.

He was certainly out classed with the rooms occupants. Thought about how many powers they had he would need and a edge.

[Renekin Skywalker]

"My ablities focus on being able to investigate." Says Troubleshooter. "Much like him," He points to Quinn, "I don't have the same fire power as the rest. But I have enough to make up for it."

"My powers?" SPM sounds a little anxious. "It's embarassing, but they're combat-oriented. Super-socky headbutts, and the like."

[dakota]

Jamison spoke slowly. Deliberately. Unbelievingly.

" Super"
" Socky"
"Headbutts?"

[Renekin Skywalker]

SPM, the sock puppet, that is, shrugged. "Like I said."

"THank-you." Says Karson, bringing back focus to the task at hand. "OK. Now, what we have almost looks like a random mix of people. Three solid hitters, a flier, what appears to be three lightweights. Is this a bad thing? No. And who can tell me why?"
