Look, you're going to have to face the possibility here that EVEN if one accepts the idea of a powerset with a wide variety of effects, perhaps Chaos or something, that Primemacy is not a good name for it because no one has ever seen that word before. 1 1 1 Wavicle's Guide To What Really Matters: What Needs To Be Done On Every Toon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't compare that to a name that has no reference to what the power is and does. @PsyonicoYou spell the name wrong, it's spelled primemacy......... I may need to change this to Primorcery or Primestry or put it like Primemancy. Either works. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already said on several other threads that I'm fine with others proposing a power set that uses magic-themed animations and makes use of a wide array of abilities provided they fit in the AT as long as it is not called some derivative of Magic Blast. You meet my requirements, so I'm withholding further comment on the proposal. However, you don't seem to understand the reason for some posts made in this thread, so I gave an explanation.

Sometimes they have alternate spellings but most words have one spelling per language. But Flea, my last name is Webster! Doesn't that mean that I'm allowed to make up new words?!? In all seriousness, making up new words, and changing the centuries old meanings of already established words, has been all the rage the last 20 or so years. I don't understand why the participation trophy generations think that they can just make up new words and then get upset when the rest of the world doesn't automagically understand and use those words. Oh and @Wingslord24, don't you think you've spend enough time and effort hijacking Solok's thread? If you really want to make your own powerset suggestion then why do you start your own thread and make your own suggestion? 3 1 "It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the powers you mentioned are fairly generic, such as Empathy. The others are highly origin-specific. Powers like Beam Rifle, Assault Rifle, the newly added Arsenal Control, Trick Arrow, and Traps all clearly align with a technology theme. Similarly, Dark Miasma and Demon Summoning emphasize a specific supernatural origin. Visual presentation is crucial in conveying what a power is. Also it seems to me that there's not an even representation across origins, and adding origin-based powers will not break the game. However, I do wish that Necromancy wasn't so tied to a specific origin. I would prefer a zombie power set that doesn't rely on the darkness elements.

Beam Rifle, Assault Rifle, and Arsenal Control are not highly origin specific. Any Natural origin character can have a knack for guns and devices. Any Mutation origin character can have a mutation such as superhuman reflexes or perception that makes them especially skilled at using guns and devices or have a mutation that requires a gun or other devices to manifest like the shillelagh-wielding Black Tom. Any Science origin character can have a specially designed gun or other devices that makes use of non-gunpowder chemicals as propellant or other enhancements to improve the gun or devices. And any Magic origin character can have a gun and devices as a focus for their magic, possibly explaining why they never run out of ammo, utilizing a crystal core that powers the weapon/device or propels the the projectile, uses magic to empower the weapon itself, and myriad other means as is demonstrated across many forms of media including comics, movies, video games, table top games, and more. 17 minutes ago, Wingslord24 said: However, I do wish that Necromancy wasn't so tied to a specific origin.
