Just as a heads up, the Young Bloods are still in the process of forming and, depending on the posting frequency of those of us involved in that, it might take a while yet.

That's fine by me- perhaps I'll simply cause a ruckus for you all to pursue later down the road before heading to interact with some of your side characters. We'll see what the situation is when I start working on my next one.

It would be better than if i just posted with him being on the truck, but want to make sure before he moves into action.

- Light of Dawn:
Daniel can cause light to shine down from above, even in enclosed spaces like caves or dungeons. This power does not just provide a source of light, it dispels illusions, invisibility fields/tech, and renders all sapient beings unable to lie.- Divine Wrath:
Daniel can emit white and blue fire from his hand that burns even metal.- Divine Healing:
Daniel can channel the energy of the divine to heal almost all injuries and diseases to himself and others; this requires a moment of concentration, though.- Flight:
Daniel can sprout wings that phase through his clothes, not destroying them. These wings, supernatural in nature, allow him to fly as fast as an attack helicopter while preventing G-forces, air resistance, and pesky natural forces from hindering him.
- Mortal Body - Daniel, despite his powers, does not have supernatural resilience and endurance beyond what his Flight power grants him in the air. That means that he is just as vulnerable to bullets, melee weapons, and mundane handcuffs as a normal boy of his age. This can be corrected by armor, but someone else will have to provide that.
- Energy Limit - Daniel's divine energy, if used in excess, can destroy himself, the people he strives to protect, and the surrounding area. So Daniel's father, Ramiel, used a spell to limit how much his son can draw from Heaven; this was with Daniel's consent. Thus, Daniel's powers cannot affect an area larger than a suburban house (yards included). Nor can they be kept 'on' longer than 7 seconds (Divine Wrath), 70 minutes (Light of Dawn), or in the case of Flight, 7 Days.
- Hormonal: Daniel likes girls and boys, and asking him out on a date makes him react nervously, erratically, or impulsively. Get him in a relationship, and he makes irrational decisions for the benefit of his partner. Get him in a relationship with someone on the enemy side...you get the picture.

Even right now your on a list for possible terrorist. They track your every move, know where you eat. Who you hang out with, why you do certain things, that one time you picked your nose in the bathroom. They know.
It's like the NSA! Oh, wait... *puts on tin foil hat and hides under table*

I would prefer if you didn't, personally. Perhaps simply begin the motion? As in, attempt to break through the roadblock, without determining the outcome.

That was the plan, but i would say the outcome is pretty predetermined, seeing as how it would be doubtful if a blockade could be intact after a two ton (not accurate but still) earthen golem impacts against it.The Knockout Gun Gals wrote:

The only reason i had not responded to that was because there were supposed to be others that would join the group IC'ly so i saw no reason to repond until after they joined.

Yeah, but that kind of assumption is often what causes disagreements and misunderstandings, so I'd steer clear from it regardless.

Honestly that's not gonna happen in this case, but the point stands.

Since Tom already took a look at your app, I'll only add that, going off the wording in your app, it seems as if Daniel can use fire capable of melting metal, over the area of a house and its yard, for up to 70 minutes. If this is so I'd say that's a bit excessive.
Regarding how your character could be introduced, since we're low on active players at the moment I think it should be fine for Daniel to simply arrive at the area where the other Young Bloods are (you only have 4 pages of IC to catch up on, so it shouldn't be difficult, though if you absolutely need a summary I can try to provide one).

1.) True, I was considering the Light of Dawn ability (and to a lesser extent, healing) when I put in those limitations. Would 7 seconds for each blast of fire work instead?
2.) I skimmed the IC thread and got a summary in Discord; people all over the world are gaining powers and this is causing disorder, yes?

1.) Sounds a lot more reasonable, yeah. In general I think it would be good to limit your character (the more the better, really) in such a way that he can grow out of (some of) those limitations with time and become more powerful, instead of starting out that way
2.) Yeah, basically. The Young Bloods (yet to form an official team at this point in time, I'll note) are currently in the middle of a big mess in a park somewhere in San Diego.
