Yea, yea, yea, Wolf. Don't assume, it makes an a** out of you and me. I know...call it a hunch, but I doubt that you've had it worse then me. But I'm going to end it here, because it's not some pissing contest...I want to enjoy the peace...

>_> Sumara could actaully make someone bow down to her.
xD Metal control, there is irons in the blood bones and almost everywhere in the body, cheap yes, but It works wonders when you make closts of iron and blow them out the persons brain.

It'd never work, Suzu. A lot of people here wouldn't take to that kind of obvious advantage. A phsychic could defeat a lot of poeple here, because a lot of them reply upon physical attacks and not a lot of magic. Well...they don't care, they'd say something stupid like they've resisted everything. Or they'd play along and magically break your hold over them, for some dumb reason.

o-o It worked onetime, but I didnt do it out their brain, I was using it as an example, I usually just cause it to clot somewhere, and cause the cicuclatin stop to the area, simple s**t like that, but see, the thing is, it drains her fully, and ends up either passing out, and falling into a coma like state for a while to re-gain the enegry.
Its more of a biomages skill though.

I'm not looking to argue either Rintala, I'm just saying many people have it rough despite outward appearences or created persona's. But as you said we'll end it there.
Oh and Suzu, some people wouldn't react well to that because they hate bowing. Some on the other hand would have valid reasons, like being a non-standard being, for not being effected. Personally I tend to prefer the abstract approaches and can appreciate each person's build. What Rintala said about psychic's however is relatively true, however, an absurd number of people tend to develop psychic abilities randomly when they want to overhear others. Myself I limit it to sending thoughts when in animal forms. Also I have a psychic in my guild that's about to get into my character's head, the difficulty she'll have is based on the number of people's minds she'll actually be looking into, however she's quite strong so it will only act as an obstacle.

You're talking about the fact you have like 4 different people/beings in your head? Yea, people like to use an excuse like that a lot as well. What people don't realize, and I think you do actually, is that it doesn't matter how many creatures or beings you have in your mind, it's their mental strength. You can have a hundred poeple cramed into their mind, but if they don't have the strength to resist the phsychic all it's going to do is slow him/her down in finding out what he/she wants to find out.

Yes I do understand that it won't stop a strong psychic but because there are seven strong sides at the moment and alot of lesser I just ask the psychics to take into account that their attention will be split so they will not have their full strength available. Serpent for example is slightly resistant to some psychics simply because he doesn't think like a normal person. He thinks with instinct more than reason and at times he simply acts to fill his instincts goals. Few people understand the reasoning of an animal so some psychics would have trouble with him. Any that didn't look for reason behind thoughts would be able to read him like a book, otherwise they would probably mislead themselves. Gah, I'm just going to stop talking about 'powers' because there are so many variables that many don't consider and that I can't predict.

God damnit Gaia! Second ******** time you ate my post!! This was a lot longer, and more detailed, but i don't feel like typeing it all back out, so here's the rough gist of it.
Even with all those extra people in your mind it won't help you. Unless they can invade each other's sanctuary of the mind then the second the physchic gets into one of their sanctuaries then the other minds are powerless against her. Now, if a physchic was smart then she'd just focus on the minds one at a time, shifting through them and searching for the information she needed. The only times she'd have trouble would be
1) Jumping from mind to mind, when she's free from one mind it gives all the minds a chance to attack and possibly expell her
2) Entering the mind of someone drivin by intelligence. Whether it be a wizard, or a scholar, or what ever! If they use intelligence over strength then it will be more difficult because they are in more control over their minds.
3) Entering 1 mind leaves her back exposed, so if another mind happends to be a physchic or has any phsychic abilities on them, then it leaves the invadeing mind in a very vulnerable spot.
And please don't stop, very rarely do I get a chance to have a nice, peaceful, conversation with someone. Often times it turns into a swearing bout because one of the numbered parties has a very strong disagreement with the other...I'm not saying I've never started a swearing bout, beacuse that'd be a huge lie. But you seem intelligent enough to hold a good conversation with.

lol Well very well then. My character has a trait that makes it difficult for a psychic to reach into just one mind at times. The minds are all connected and most have been forced to use intelligence over strength. Ask about Shadow and Ka'rinth, they are strong but they prefer manipulating others. Also some of the older minds like Ka'rinth are able to freely enter the minds of some of the others. Generally those that existed before the others can enter the minds of the younger because they resided there at some point. So the best chance a psychic has to make their way through unharrassed is from the oldest to the newest but which is which is not readily apparent without being in one of the older's memories.

Ok, but you realize that if two minds enter the same santuary of mental holdings that they become one? That's why a physchic is so hard to roleplay. People take that for granted when they say they can read minds and such. If you have two conciousnesses locked in the same place for extended periods of time then they adapt to eachother and intigrate one another. It could be a good thing, and a bad thing. Now if I was a powerful physchic, and I invaded your mind. If I happened to, luckily, find a mind weaker then mine, and I set up barriers and traps to keep your other selves out, after a while that chunk of your mind would eventrually become melded with mine. And since my mind is stronger it would hold dominioncy, don't you agree?

Rintala *sighs* I hate playing the weakling...it's degradeing. But no one else is willing to break out of the "I'm a god so you must bow before me!" routine, so I get stuck with it. And Wolf...you have no idea what it's like to be truely alone... *cough* Ahem. sweatdrop You're not the only one to break that cycle.
