Anyways, Yaana, are you good if I start the Merrymaker & Harley bank heist?

He can tap her up. She may have changed her mind though...

Yeah, especially with the whole GCPD on high alert thing going on right now. Come on Tam, think about things like police activity before you go robbing banks

This heist has been planned since my last few Merrymaker posts, I have been waiting for Harley to finish up her flower heist and interactions with other characters before starting it.

Dang it. So I take it you don't want to work with Merrymaker anymore? I would prefer to be told now before I do any actions.

Hmmm...both of your characters are shrinks. If only there was some way Merry could capitalize on all the chaos that's been happening. Maybe sell some self-help crap to the citizens of Gotham or offer them some drug that would relieve their anxiety, make them happy.

Me =/= Harley. I just thought that her being unsure about whether she really wanted to follow through with the plan was the most natural course to take the character on. And then with meeting Batgirl and all that and having someone be nice to her Harley is seconding guessing herself about whether going back to being a bad guy and killing people is the right thing to do.

He can approach her and call her up, strong-arm or force her into it some way. What I was saying is that she may not want to of her own volition.

I know that you isn't the same as Harley, I was asking if you changed your mind about having your character do the heist. I do agree that having Harley question it is an interesting and natural course to take and I have no problems with that.

Merrymaker wasn't really made to strong arm others, and at the pace the new RPs have been taken, he hasn't really been working for me as I made him back when there were more simpler times. So I will most likely have him bow out, at least for now.

A psych-war between Harley and Merry might be interesting with both offering their psych profiling services to Batman and Bane respectively. Just offering ideas here. :)

He can strong-arm in a variety of ways, not just in the literal way of physically forcing her. He could manipulate her, or as I have been saying from the start but you never did, blackmail her. I don't really want her to do things for no reason like I did before with her initially agreeing, but that was just to get the story moving.

Yeah, I am probably just going to have our good doctor drop out for now, I don't really have too much inspiration for him at the moment, with no real ideas on how to really go forward with his plot and would prefer to do so now while he is not committed to any big plot events with other characters. I can also focus more effort onto the Question though, so there isn't that big of a loss.

As far as manipulation and blackmail is concerned, I did try that back in the restaurant, trying emotional manipulation, political manipulation, trying to manipulate her into seeing my cause as the 'greater good', etc. When that didn't work I tried subtly blackmailing her with a remark about how it would be a shame if her identity was revealed to the authorities, and she didn't really respond to that, so I don't really know what I am supposed to do regarding that.

On another note, is anyone else feeling hyped about season 6 of the Teen Titans?

You could rob Deathtrap's home or even Wayne Manor. Fake Hatter could get together with Penny Plunderer to commit some old-timey crimes.

I just have to say, the fact that the character named Harbass is a Belgian and not a Slav is just wrong. Oh so very wrong. :p

Although it does give me a great idea for a new character. :D

Funny thing is I can totally see Hardbass being Belgium. Also, I can totally see him putting mayonnaise on his fries. :lol:

And what's wrong with that?

Just kidding, imho everything's wrong with that. Don't worry, Andre is basically Belgian to the point that if you ask him if he's feeling hungry, he'll check his watch. Also, he loves rich chocolates. None of that white, caramel or milk chocolate shit, that's too beta for him. The darker, the better.

I'll start by saying that I am ok because I don't want to freak anyone out, but I was in a car crash and i've been mostly bed ridden.Worst of the damage is a fractured pelvis, everything else is cosmetic. I'm gonna start writing again but the painkillers make me fuzzy, so maybe not for a while longer. But i'll be around again soon

I am not going to act on the character, too busy to handle too many at this time and it is mostly a joke, but it was basically a super gopnik, with the unstoppable powers of slave squatting and vodka drinking.

As for the French Hardbass, Western Spies may try, but they can never create true hardbass. More often than not non Slavs mix in elements from other electronic music, like techno, dubstep, or the like. This does contain elements like that so is not pure hardbass.

Is it considered OP if my character Fah can sense chaos and discord in an area? For example, a terrorist group on the other side of town begins razing buildings. Fah could sense this chaos and plan to investigate it or whatever. Another use is being able to sense mental or emotional trouble within an individual if he gets close to them, be it mental instability or general distress. The closer he is to a source or area of great chaos, the stronger he can feel it.

The idea is that Fah has trained so hard and long that he has gained a type of inhuman mental acuity and sharpness. Is this fine?

I mean... kinda? You didn’t include in the original app, which is fine. You can just add it to the app, and no need to resubmit. My concern is that this chaos sensing is really close to some form of psychic ability, like some form of empathic ability, and that could be a bit too op, considering it’s rather close to mind reading. I’ll leave this decision up to either Yaana, Tam, or Brainy, but this was just my thoughts on it.
