In the line - August 14




More modifying the wiki


Do we create our powers to take advantage of flaws in ourself?
I met one person whose character's name was CLOT ( go ahead get your snot jokes out now, I'll wait)

I asked him what his story, and about the red t-shirt he wore that had a blood cell on it.

He explained that he suffers from a "thick blood" disorder, he's on medications to help control it to ensure that he does not have blood clots created in his system.

I asked him how bad
could it be? He explained it like this.

"If I was a caveman out hunting for food and a saber tooth tiger attacked- I would be the only person who would make it back to the cave as all the rest of them would have bled out."


I then asked how he saw it being used as a power.

He wasn't sure, thought maybe his power could be used as a first aid to help injured people, maybe using it to prevent other types of leaks ( little dutch boy and his finger in a dike.)

Weird - this is just another example of where all the inspiration for characters can come from.

Mur created so many- fairly balanced overall, and who knows where her ideas came from
(lost her favorite pen- wished she could keep everything?)
