Character Name: Ketkin Flynn

Character Source: OC

Starting Location: Mesa Roja

Character Behavior:
Ketkin Flynn is a Grizzled Aquanaut. Long periods of time doing manual labor with nothing but the organic and mechanical sea life of his home world to accompany him have left Ket dry and antisocial. Though he is not unnecessarily aggressive or distrusting by any means, ket’s demeanor could often be equated to something between a predator eyeing up its prey and a mechanic eyeing up a broken car. He is always aware of his surroundings and constantly ponders on how to improve them. Despite his highly efficient and cold blooded blue collar disposition, the horrific vastness of the sea has given him a sense of reverence and humility lying at the core of his actions that is rarely openly expressed. He doesn’t openly express much frankly, preferring to use gestures when applicable or even better just getting to work. When speaking is necessary he commands attention and inspires action with his gravely voice. His singular beloved last time is making terrible aquatic puns with %1000 seriousness while barking an order or offering some surprisingly sage advice and moving on without so much as a wink to acknowledge it. Ketkin Flynn is unsure of the reason he’s come to the crossroads or the effect the jump had on his arcatec exosuit, but he’s ready as always to discover every secret these strange new waters hold.

Physical Description:

a tall broad shouldered laborer, cut and lean with scars from various explosions or fights that he would describe as “minor incidents”. He usually wears comfortable leather adventuring gear and ALWAYS wears his gangly exoskeleton of strange runes, emitters, and metal braces. His auburn hair is spiked and wild but is cut to the same awkward flat top length any time he activates his suit. the hard light plates that make up his activated armor have not only color changing properties but can even display small groups of words and simple images.

Character History:

Ket was essentially an industrial park ranger, charged with the maintenance and upkeep of a deep ocean pipeline system. This complex network of tubing was in charge of sending and receiving large quantities of raw materials, inhabited by an even more chaotic array of mechanical sea life performing various necessary automated tasks to reduce human workload. Ketkin spent most of the year here by himself, finding an odd sense of family among the creaky pumps and clattering “fish”. His sector had the best scores in his district and he intends to bring that same level of perfectionism to whatever quest he finds himself taken by in the crossroads.

Bubble Jets - 300
-Speed II (400)
  • Limited: underwater II (-100)
A simple device using the oxygen in water to create air streams in order to increase maximum mobility in the water.

A net! Wrist mounted, spring loaded, and mechanically retracting. Can bring small to medium sized objects to Ket or entangle an enemy’s weapon or limbs.

Skills - 600

Industrial equipment
  • Ket spends a lot of time around large pipes, drills, and other heavy machinery and can operate them if needed
Basic tools
  • Hammers, wood axes, the like. Wooden handle heavy metal part does work good. *caveman grunts*
Simple machinery
  • Generators, jackhammers, or whatever the ocean equivalent of a lawnmower is, ket can operate and repair.
Simple computers
  • Ket can bypass or repair electronic door locks or hack a vending machine if he’s hungry, provided there aren’t any firewalls or advanced security
Vehicles
You’ve met a car guy before. Ket can tell you what's wrong with your engine by listening to it and he drives like an asshole. A really fast asshole


Deep sea diving/Spelunking
  • Ket is not intimidated by the dark, cold pressure of the deep, and can weasel his way to the most useful thing in any cavern.
Fishing
  • Although Ket’s version of fishing sometimes more resembles dogfighting, he is wickedly proficient at it.
Foraging
  • Fish for dinner gets boring.
Scavenging
  • Ketkin has a… water eagle’s eye for anything shiny tucked neatly in the sea sands.
Camping
  • Finding a safe spot to rest in the miles of wide open sea requires creativity, to say the least.

Hello there and welcome to Multerra! Apologies for the delay on addressing your app. You have a really neat character concept here, so let's check out these abilities and such real quick!

For "Runaway Balloon" -- I believe this would make more sense as Flight Rank 1 rather than Movement, since your character is floating!

For "Hardlight Armor" -- If the Protection Rank 2 Effect on your character's armor is Ongoing for an extended period of time following its Activation, that Effect will require the Ongoing positive modifier (+100E x Rank of Effect, so +200E for Protection Rank 2).

Also, you can list Activation as a negative modifier under each of these Effects! It will then impact the cost of each Effect that it is applied to. Just keep in mind that negative modifiers cannot reduce the cost of an individual Effect below 50E per Rank of Effect, so your Adaptation: Toxic Environments Effect's total cost will remain unchanged.

Here is an example of how this would look:

Hardlight Armor
Protection 2 (200)
-- Activation (-100E)
Adaptation: need to breathe (200)
-- Activation (-50E)
Adaptation: toxic environment (50)
-- Activation (-0E)
Cost (300)

For "Bubble Jets" -- You should multiply the value of your modifiers by the Rank of the Effect that you are applying them to! So for Speed Rank 2 (400E), if you have a Limited modifier applied, that would be 400E - (50E x 2, or -100E). Your total cost for this Ability would then be 300E. Example Below:

Bubble Jets
Speed 2 (400)
Limited: underwater (-100)
Cost (300)

For "Snatcher" -- Like the above, the value of your modifiers should be multiplied by the Rank of the Effect you are applying them to. So if you want to apply the Ranged positive modifier to Debuff Rank 2, you would multiply the base cost for Ranged (+50E) by 2 and add that to your total cost. Example below:

Snatcher
Debuff 2 (200)
Ranged (+100)
Cost (300)

And lastly, for your Master Skills, please provided a basic summary/description for what these skills entail.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out either here, via Discord, or via PM.

Okay, I THINK I got it, but just let me know if I misunderstood anything. I put the skills in spoilers because things were formatting weird coming out of copy/paste. Thank you!!

Awesome, thank you for making those changes! I just have one more thing of note to point out:

For Hardlight Armor, I think the total cost may be different from what you have written. Currently, you have the total cost for this ability listed as 400E. According to my math and the modifiers applied, though, it should be 500E. I've explained my reasoning below!

Hardlight Armor - 500

-Protection II (200)
Ongoing II (200)
Activation (-100) [-50 is multiplied by 2, the rank of the Effect]

-Adaptation: need to breathe (200)
Activation I (-50)

-Adaptation: toxic environment (50)
Activation (-50) [Cost of this Effect cannot be lowered below 50E, no impact on ability cost]
