Exemplars: secret page for Ben and Nate
I thought I made this page once before, but I must not have. You guys need to discuss some stuff here. Dont put any headings or the others will get wind of what you discuss. Im going to put stuff here both of you know.
Ben answer these questions:
How long ago did Santiago die? Probably 1-2 years ago
When did you become the omnipath? When Santiago died
What have you learned and from whom? Nate's character taught me what he knew: the rest he taught himself through his high level of natural talent with the ability.(feel free to be general, and Ill fill in the blanks)
Did you send Nate that intro you sent me (with your origin)? Yes
Nate answer these questions:
What have you been doing since Santiago died?
Keeping an eye on Ben's character and looking out for baddies to kill.
Do you have a plan to keep the newest omnipath safe?
Not alot besides sticking to him like a fly to shit. I think he would be looking to find people of power that he can trust, i.e. other supers, and have them around so that they can fight baddies or if nothing else be living body shields so that he can get Ben's character the fuck out of dodge.
What have you told Bens character?
I would have told Ben's character that the last omnipath died. I would bring up the point every time he even thinks about disobeying me. I would have mentioned that I have been doing this longer than he can imagine, and if he asked I would tell him just how long I've been doing it. I wouldn't purposefully keep anything from him. The way I would see it, the kid practically has a bullseye painted on his forehead...As much as he doesn't plan on letting anything happen to him or the new omnipath, sometimes life is too short to pussyfoot around all the important stuff.
Both of you answer:
How much story stuff do you want me to make for you guys before we start? As much as you like: I wrote Balder's background, you can put in whatever else you want, or even change the background if you want.
I concur with Ben on this one. I had a few attempts at writing a background, but all the stuff you have come up with has been way cooler. So do what u do.-Nate
BTW, when is Nate going to be around again? :) I dont know
New stuff Nate, you know of a legend of a Tome of the Omnipath, but you have never seen it. If its real, its very valuable and full of information.
Ben, when he tells you that it strikes a chord in you, but you dont have any other intuition on it.
Nate, you have heard all sorts of mumbo jumbo and sayings in verse that the Omnipaths over the ages have muttered to themselves. Its usually related to some kind of apocalypse that never happens. You cant recall any of it, but you recognize it when you hear it. If its ever new, thats a surprise (somehow you can tell).
Ben, I gave you some little tidbits, Im gonna search my email for them and try and elaborate on them. I might modify the exact words a bit. Im no poet though, so if you come up with a better sounding way to say them, email me and Ill tell you if its still appropriate. All of this comes to you in dreams.
Nate, you have been almost everywhere, but some exceptions: Peru, Australia, most remote Pacific islands, Siberia, Alaska and the northern parts of Canada, Greenland.
Some new addenda: Santiago died in mid 1995, and Ben was released from the hospital January 1996.
Lately things have felt familiar to The Guardian. He sees something and gets deja vu. Sometimes its a woman, or a barstool, or a passing car. Its disqueiting to say the least. He had decided that the only way to be sure to keep this whelp safe was to stay sharp, and that meant sober. Yet this new creepiness has made it impossible. In fact, your drinking is up. A lot. You have been frequenting a local watering hole and ran into a semi-deranged guy who seems to remember the strangest things, but know little of his past. He repulses you because he is so familiar, but attracts you for the same reason. You guys have become friends, not totally due to the fact that you win a lot of money betting when he is rolling the bones! This guy is lucky. Oh, and lets not forget he drinks like a fish, which you can respect.
As time wears on both of you have begun to clash a little. The Guardian knows what he knows, but Balder is starting to know things that he feels, and they dont always jive with what The Guardian remembers. Its always respectful, and as yet nothing has convinced The Guardian that anything has changed. He's heard this kind of stuff before.
Both of you have been agitated a lot, and you both think that may be contributing to these feelings. Balder thinks something big is on the horizon, The Guardian thinks it will pass.
