I forgot to have Violet answer the phone so I edited that into my post

“I guess. I mean, well, I dunno. Do you think hypothermia would be an issue?”
I dunno. Ask Wolf :twisted:

Wolf is one of those things I need to return to, but there's more exciting things to deal with. Right now, he's in custody, awaiting his day in court. I have notes to bring Jakob, Mat, Mike, Violet, and Rose to testify. Naturally, nothing at all bad could possibly happen there.

I don't mind getting a break from Wolf. He was behind every door for a while there ;} Jakob could use a bit more fleshing out as he's kinda just the "regular guy" of that group.

Aye, but at the moment, I view Wolf's pending trial as being a vehicle for exploring Jakob's character a bit. Right now, I feel as though he's nothing more than some archtypes--chief among them that he's a damsel in distress (I don't intend to change that--I rather enjoy the idea that in this relationship, Jakob is the one who is weak and Violet is the one doing the saving). I also feel that it provides closure for Mike as well and can give him a bit more character--Rose as well. I can even see it furthering Mat a bit too.

Sounds good to me.

Well, I was needing to catch up. I suppose Dennis may just finally wind up replacing Lex on the hated list, at least from the female side of the school.

I believe I made a note of it at the time time, but Lex would have told people about the Academy and what he thinks their headmistress has done to them.

Details about Kirstie's Dad were obviously censored out.

Heh. I totally forgot Lex's dad had powers. :oops: Still makes sense Violet wouldn't respect him as a threat, though she probably should have

To be fair, Lex has never really seen his Dad use his powers.
He'd have no idea that his Dad has never figured out how to hurl lightning ;~)

PL5 is pretty decent for a civilian though, as is 105pp. I remember being surprised his attack was +8 but I never put that together with the fact he has powers. Not my best detective moment, especially since I already knew it.

Actually based on how the build is written up... that attack roll is all Roger.
He hasn't leveraged his powers to increase his combat abilities like Lex does.

So it looks like he's a bad ass normal with the ability to run really fast ;~)

Hmmm... You know, thinking on it I don't can't think of many female students who have a reason to dislike Lex. I mean, most don't have a reason to like him, but...

Tat seems to dislike him, though not enough to write home about. That might be due to the fact that her best friend is(was?) Kirstie and her boyfriend hangs out with the pesky american all the time.

Ellen probably doesn't care for him much on the basis that he's on bad terms with both of her boyfriends. Though due to the lack of interaction who knows?

Speedy-McCrazy-Pants doesn't like Lex because she's a horrible person... That's how her last exam came back. "You are a horrible person". And they weren't even testing for that!

Sara might have cause due to Lex outing her as being pregnant... Though I'm not sure how that could have been done better than it was.

Violet has had to talk to Lex. This is often enough. ;~)

Violet's opinion of Lex is mostly neutral, tending to positive (due to Kirstie's influence) but varies depending on whether they happen to agree or disagree on the subject in question at the time.
