K, sweet. I just don't know much about that series. Might not wanna block those directly, though. They sorta explode on contact, as Isla found out.

I think so. Where did he go, anyhow?


He's showing as online, likely typing his turn already.

I don't know, it only looks like he's reading the topics.

The more you write here the more time I will have to spend reading this thread. Let me read the other thread and I will write.

Well, I would be getting ready to make a response to the massive free for all that's about to ensue, but I need to go for an hour and a half or so in about 15 minutes, so I might be a bit delayed when my turn comes. Please wait for me to post, though, because with so many people attacking me, I'll need to respond before the fight continues. Otherwise, it'll be really awkward, and I'll have to make a post the size of the average novel to cover for everything I miss. Sorry to make you guys wait, but...

I'll hurry as best I can.

S'okay. We can discuss cool things while you're gone.

You know... Like, Cow vs. Laser Beams. Not like you'll be missing much awesomeness or anything.

I was about to start writing my character's reaction when I realized somewthing: my character sucks. So, in a moment of brightness, it has come to me that instead of having a "different" item effect (what is... broken, to say the least) I realized that, in-game, all of the other characters (except one) are Isaac wearing a costume, and even then, his stats change. So, can I change that to include different characteristics? With you want to, I can link it to the wiki, so you can see what I mean better.

I think I understand, but a link to the wiki would be nice regardless. I know you linked it at one point, but I don't remember which page it was on.

You could do like I'm doing with Alice... there's not a lot of lore of her in-game... She's either a pretty OP summonable monster. Or a even more broken bonus boss. I just filtered her powers and dialog to build her personality and skillset and just started running with it. I don't know Isaac, so I can't really help much in building a baseline for him...

The link could help a lot, yes.

A direct link to the character sheet. I will only add Isaac as the Jack (of All Stats), Maggy (as the Stone Wall), Cain (as the Fragile Speedster) and Judas (as the Glass Cannon), the others depends on items, so I don't want to start with them. I think it would be cheating.
As about Isaac's personality, I am making it up. He doesn't have too much depth in-game, you know.

OK, I found it, and I was correct on what you want to do. I think there should be no problem to switch between appearances and stats like that. We can even Play It For Laughs and Lampshade it. Make sure to make all changes appear while no one is looking though, just for added lulz.

The trope is Fragile Speedster, FYI. ^_^

Alright. Well, does anyone have a problem with him doing that? I think it's fine. His character is pretty underpowered in comparison, and some of us are really too powerful *cough*me*cough* so I'm willing to give him a boost like this.

I'm fine with it. I think I fall in the category of "overpowered".
