The human race is triumphant. After succesfuly developing space travel, they swarmed around the galaxy, colonising dozens of worlds. In doing so, they found numerous signs of alien civilisations: odd bits of technology, ruined desert cities of gold filagree and glowing blue light, abandoned scapyards... but no life. But soon enough, following the trail across the galaxy, they found them: the Enkari. Highly advanced lifeforms, they were all but extinct when the humans found them, claimed by a deadly disease. They bequeathed their knowledge to the humans, in the form of a datacrystal, hundreds of miles high. The humans brought the crystal to earth, where the scientists eagerly awaited a chance to experiment with the advanced technology. However, on the way to earth, a rogue military general, Amadeus Sungh, attacked the convoy with a small fleet, seizing the crystal. The rest of the humans counterattacked, and in the process, the vast crystal was lost, accidently blown apart by weapons fire. Only a few shards remained, and war broke out among the humans, fighting for the knowledge contained within...
Tuth Choss, Haron System
You wake up, and find yourself lying on a table. The room is dark, but you can make out banks of surgical equipment. You clutch your head, trying to remember something, anything before this room. Nothing, nothing apart from your name. You sit up, and climb off the bed. You hear a clanking noise, and stare in horror at your body. Half of it seems to have been encased in some sort of golden armor, with glowing blue cables snaking in and out of your skin. Twin golden gauntlets are affixed to your hands, and metallic armor covers your torso. Armor covers the lower half of your legs, and on your chest you see a green crystal affixed to the armor. Blue cables connect to this, and it glows eerily. Despite the armor, you can move freely. In fact, you feel light and flexible. Suddenly, the floor shakes and there is an enormous BOOM. You are knocked off your feet, but get back up again and rush to the door. It opens, and you stumble into a large hall, filled with people running away. You stare out of a window, and see tanks and soldiers charging towards the base...

@Sonicheroes95: Wrong! Noob - is someone who is bad at something, doesn't know what he is doing and does not want to put any effort in what he is doing, just waits when someone else will do it for him.
Newb - is new to the game. Doesn't know anything yet, but willing to learn from his mistakes to progress.
YES!!! MA INTERWEBZ IZ ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Will post update later, once I stop raging that I lost my 200 word long post to wreless router malfunction.

You take the third road, and arrive at the outpost. Five off-duty soldiers are sitting on the back of an overturned truck, passing around a bottle of beer and laughing at jokes. One of them takes out a couple of dice, and they begin to play a game, the dice sparkling in the sun. Their helmets and guns are lying on a heap on the ground. They block your way into the outpost: to go around them would mean heading through a snake infested desert for a day. What do you do?
Nice. You head up the mountain, but thick snowdrifts bar your way. With a flash if fire, it vapourises as you ignite it. You hear a shout from above. Two guards come rushing down the mountain on a hoverbike, one driving, the other aiming a gun. They are clad in a strange, dark grey armor, with red light spinning around it. You try to rip them apart with your teke, but nothing happens. Their armor is also flameproof. The gun chatters, and the blue streaks of electromagnetic bullets shriek through the air. You dive for cover behind a cluster of rocks. What do you do now?
Koochman- Sorry, but I don't want more than two players. You win the argument though.
Sonicheroes- If you can't spell my name or 'derived' properly, you can leave. Now. Go and spam Destroy the Enemy with Kingdom Hearts and Sonic the Hedgehog rubbish.

Nice. You have to concentrate hard, but you manage it. He stiffens, but the others don't notice, so focused they are on their game. What next?
I'm thinking of introducing MP, in order to limit the use of your abilities. It would start at 10 or 20 (?) and would increase by 5 every level. Different abilities would cost different amounts, so idk, Mind Control would cost 7, and Stun would cost 3. It's mainly to curb the use of Cyan's vast abilities, as he will be able to control tonnes of mass soon, and I don't want omnipotence yet... Likey?

I don't likey(I like being omniscient) but it sounds reasonable and like a good idea. So, sure. Don't want it to be too easy.
The soldier will tip over the table onto the others, temporarily stopping them. Then, he will run quickly to the armor and weapons, throwing them in my general direction, and grabbing one for himself. Finally, he will use the weapon he picked up to start shooting at his confederates.

EEEEEEEEEEEVVVVVVVVIIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLL!!!! You probably laugh at dying kittens.
He does that, but the mind control stops before he can kill his friends. Looking confused, he sees you, and shouts. The teammates scamble for their weapons, but you raise your's first, and begin to fire. Zee raises a hand, and one of them begins to dissolve. Suddenly, time grinds too a halt. A voice from the sky booms: "THOU ART A SINNER! THOU SHALT BE PUNISHED FOR YOUR EVIL DEED." There's a flash, and you find yourself standing at the crossroads again. You're missing a scalpel and the energy drinks. "AHEM. I'M STILL WATCHING. PICK A DIFFERENT WAY THIS TIME." *Breaks down 4th wall* AH, OBSCURE, NICE TO SEE YOU. HOW ARE THINGS?" Great, thanks. Ah, god-modding. Where would we be without it?" "WELL, I WOULDN'T EXIST, AND MOAT WOULD HAVE BEEN SHOT DEAD BY THE SOLDIERS." No, he wouldn't. It's too early in the story for that. "I AM GOD! I AM MASTER HERE! YOU WILL OBEY M-" *pop*

Nonono, I didn't mean for him to shoot them, just shoot at them. That should cause enough mass confusion for me to get by. I don't laugh at dying kittens. Maybe something a little less cute and cuddly. I laugh at dying insects.
Ermm...I'll go down the Ma...Sar path. I guess.
By the way... God prefers atheists. My favorite God comic of all time. My favorite God joke would be the one about the skydiver and Buddha...

This God was nothing but a plot device to get you to go on the right track. After he outlived his usefulness, I helped him become an hero.
YOU LAUGH AT DYING INSECTS?! Sicko.
You head along the twisting road, until you come across a road block. Two battle robots stand, blocking your way. They see you and charge. Zee tries to vaporise them, but due to her inexperience, it backfires and she collapses unconscious on the ground. Great, you think. Twirling your blade, you face the robots, who level chainsaws at you.

*raises eyebrows* Sheesh dude. Just an example. And no, I don't. Not saying I wouldn't like to see some types of insects die, though. Cockroaches, solpulgids, and millipedes creep the hell out of me.
I'll use Stun on one robot and Mind Shock on the other. I've had an idea; there should be a way to quickly recharge MP as well. Maybe the Syringe could do that, or some kind of food or something?

I had a cockroach
thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis big crawl over my face on a dare. I'm DEADLY serious.
One robot collapses, and struggles to get up. The other shakes, sparks flashing from it's eyes. You slash at it, but it quickly recovers and slices at you. What next?
Syringe now fully restores MP instead of HP. Oh, and you can Meditate to restore 5 MP. This can be done at any time, and also yields 1 XP. you can do it only once per 3 posts though.
