Re: So that's everyone, I think. Isaac Send a noteboard - 22/10/2010 08:00:43 AM
What's your dastardly plan, Isaac?


Why's it got to be dastardly? :P

All right, so anyway, I do unsurprisingly have plots and schemes afoot but at the moment most have not yet reached 'the proper time', so I will focus on one particular avenue, which in this case was sort of a 'SK gambit'

Going into this it seemed a safe bet that our bad guys are shapechangers and already have a legitimate ID and knew they did, likely as major characters. One of them might have lied about all 4, but probably not, they likely listed their 'real' fake identity. I'm betting everyone did.

Let us assume for the moment that any role powers someone has are appropriate to their character. Now let us assume we have a vig or SK, knowing Beet, he wouldn't assign this role to a character that followed the Comics Code, which amongst other things doesn't let good guys kill people pretty much ever. I haven't done a definitive scouring of characters yet, but the perosn who most stuck out was WF, he had:

Devil-Slayer
Deadpool
Squirrel Girl
Spider Ham

The only major character on that list is Deadpool, who will get to in a moment. Squirrel Girl and Spider Ham are both very minor characters, as really is Devil-Slayer, who started of as a member of an evil cult, he is also known for being part of the Skrull Kill Crew during the Skrull Secret Invasion, so that flagged my notice, obviously, and the SKC was not exactly a hero group, they tended to throw down with the heroes as much as anyone else, that's basically all Devil-Slayer is known for, and his powers are described as "Eric Simon Payne is a trained soldier and hit man So that's a pretty decent vig/SK option plus a worrying cult possibility dumped in.

Now, the other one is Deadpool, who probably has the best credentials to be a SK of any character short of outright villains, not too likely to be a a vig in my opinion.

So, first guess on this initial avenue of inquiry, White Flame is probably Deadpool, maybe Devil-Slayer, and both of those seem likely to be NK capable characters. If he is Spider Ham or Squirrel Girl, then we have to assume he is not the lone player in a minor character role but I'd want confirmation of that from someone else.

Anyway, that's my first thoughts, focusing in on a probable SK/vig isn't exactly ideal but realistically killing off a SK (and arguably a vig) on day 1 is preferable to catching a single scummer, since it eliminates a whole NK. And yes, I know I'm not very objective about vigs but I'll remind everyone that they have a a horrible track record with us, BA was the first vig to whack a non-townie and that was after he tried to whack the town doc, by and large our SK's and scummers have a better track record of killing off rival scummers than the vigs have. But again, there are a handful of major characters who I think would be obvious vig material, The Punisher being the blatant example, but plent yof more obvious vig candidates beside Deadpool, who is practically the poster-child for insanely homicidal third party guy.

Anyway, that's my first thoughts on it.

And yeah, to save the eventual comment, this is exactly what I'd be saying if I was the Evil Skrull Leader, I'm not, a general desire to do away with SK's and cultists is a trait I possess both when town and DF.
