Anonymooo *goes to remedy that RIGHT NOW* xp Epitome's a moron, though. The hand is a collection of small and fragile bones. If you punch somebody straight in the elbow--even straight in the arm--regardless of how hard you hit, you're gonna hurt your hand more than their elbow. xp Don't forget muscles and the like. And wwwayyyyy dangerous in the hands of someone using that hand monk-style. ((not counting myself since I don't have a lot of experience in fighting))

Raven Yun Kaminosai Making a point there Dr? xd And Raven, EVERYONE has a reason for being able to do the retardedly powerful stuff they do with a snap of the fingers. Being overpowered with an excuse doesn't mean you're no longer overpowered. But regardless, I'll accept a melee fight gladly. I really don't consider him that overpowered when he's devoted well over a million years of life to perfection of combat and his powers. Compared to Ertai's crap, its hardly overpowered. Okay, lemme just make it clear before i get started, I'm not trying to make a personal attack here. You're really not a bad guy and seem fairly intelligent, but from what I see you've picked up some bad RP habits from the rest of these losers. Look closely at what I said in that quote up there. "Being overpowered with an excuse doesn't mean you're no longer overpowered." Think very carefully about what I'm saying there. Even Ertai has his explainations for why his character is supposedly invincible. If anything this proves that ANY IDIOT can come up with SOME reason. When you've made a character that can demolish entire buildings with a thought, without even building up to it, then you've made a character that's overpowered. Slapping on a reason for why he can does not change that fact. If it did then NO character on gaia would be overpowered at all. Also, i've noticed it is the same excuse EVERY SINGLE TIME. "My character is so many centuries/millenia/eons old so they've had more time to get powerful". I have never seen a different reason, at least to my memory. Raven Yun Yours is overpowered, too, in the way of phsyical strength, but you also have a reason for that, and make up for it with technique and counter-attack. I make up for the overpowered tech with it being not as far-fetched as gundams and crap, and the telekenetics with it exhausting Raven. Brahm is actually a pretty well balanced character when you think about it. I'm not actually going to list his weaknesses HERE, obviously. That'd be stupid since I don't know which one of these yahoo's i might fight next. Yes, he has a great deal of physical power, but according to your own bio Raven's strength "is estimated to be 500 times that of a human". Giving a reason for your overpowered tech does not actually make up for having them, as I've stated. It does nothing to actually BALANCE the character. Also, having your powers slowly exaust your character is a bullshit weakness. Everyone says that's the case, and it never comes into play. I've been guilty of that myself. Hrm. Anything further and I'll start picking apart your character, which I'd rather not do publicly. If you want to continue this discussion send me a PM.

You know what I hate? When people do fanart and can't line up the eyes. Everything else looks great, but then you take a look at the face, one of the more important parts, and the eyes are screwed up. burning_eyes Man I hate that.

Soon, everyone will have high FPS "eyes." I've seen an large number of my own comrades copy that ability of mine. It's slightly pissing me off, while it is also flattering.

((not counting myself since I don't have a lot of experience in fighting)) Y'mean... Iron Hand/Iron Body/Iron whatever it's called Qigong? The one where practitioners put needles through their scrotums, tie ropes to said needles, then drag a truck on the end of said rope?

I do draw from time to time, and don't have a problem lining up the eyes for sure. It's just weird when other people do beautiful art, but it's like they don't notice the eyes are off. I dunno, maybe it's not that big of a problem and is just a pet peeve of mine, but I notice it a lot. They're really off, too, not even like I'm being picky. Still, props to them for even doing the art and showing it.

Ahha! My reason is different than this, amazingly. In fact, my guy isn't THAT old, anyways. (I've never spent the time to calculate how old my guy should be. Less than 100 though.)
"Soon, everyone will have high FPS "eyes.""
High FPS "eyes?"
Frame Per Second? First Person Shooter? Some other acronym?

Y'know why my character's powerful? His abilities were unlocked from the start of his "career." He has no idea how to use 85% of them, though, so all he really does is the whole "use energy, put it over fist, make fist deliver bigger boom" thing. xd

Key difference being that your character is power*ful* but not *over*powered.

Point. I don't think I'll ever get to him figuring out how to use all of his ability in the time I RP with him, unless I'm still doing online RP while my grandkids are running around (which may be possible xd ).

Indeed. Actually Mooo and Brahm are fairly comparable in terms of how powerful they are.

Yeah, it'd be kinda koul turning your hands into blocks of iron, but I sorta like being able to use a pencil.

I think not counting Mooo's Evolutions, Brahm clearly hits harder than Mooo. How many Gears does Brahm have, by the way? xd
