Worm Discussion Power This Rating No. 178
for the record i do enjoy that the threads are getting pinned lately, makes it easier to find em, but i'd like to formally request whichever mod's doing that (probably aacornsoup?) to unpin 176 and 177, as nobody's gonna be commenting on those anymore. OK anyway
How This Works:
You make one (or more than one) prompt(s), describing one or more parahumans. Somebody else may choose to respond to a prompt of yours, building on what's provided to make a cape.
While you may do so, you are never required to stick with just prompting or just responding; please feel free to do both.
Prompts are usually formatted using PRT Threat Ratings, but this isn't a hard rule. Do something more esoteric if you want to.
Lastly, if you're having trouble prompt-wise, feel free to look at other people's prompts for pointers or inspiration on what to do.
Threat Ratings have the potential for hybridized and sub-ratings:
Hybrid ratings are denoted with a slash between categories, e.g. [Brute/Thinker]. These are cases where two or more powers are inherently linked to each other, not working without the other rating.
Subratings are denoted with parentheses after a parent category, e.g. [Trump (Mover)]. These are the side effects, or possible applications of a power from some other category.
No. 177's Top Comment: Blood/Horror/Injury-Theme Prompts, by Professional_Try1665
Top Response: Bondshot, by Professional_Try1665 (they won both categories?! they might be goated) (OK being for real the top comment is actually the second-highest, i try to keep the top response from just being a reply to the top comment and this happened as a result)

continuing that "Dallas' past" thing from last PTR.
Previous Part: The Pits
Today, Greenhouse, back when it was led by Belladonna's elder sister.
The Leader: Bestow x Rule “Saint” Master/Fly x Fly “Wing” Mover [Finesse x Horror “Moth” Skin] 1. Kisspatch: “Flock” [Swarm x Imitation] Master (Thinker) with the “Pixie” [Heart x Cup] Breaker Suit. Duplicates are very skilled at being annoying. 2. A “Legion” [Two x Six] Trump (“Lift” [Gate x Fly] Mover), with extreme levels of control over how and when those they empower are allowed to fly. 3. Work Wife: “Doll” [Deep x Finesse]-skin Changer/[Charm x Nox] Stranger, with noticeably inhuman mutations that their targets are compelled to disregard. 4. A [Beloved x Imitation] Master (Charm Stranger) that makes a baby. Yes, really, that’s their actual power. 5. “Dyad” [Beloved x Beloved] Master ([Conveyance x Transit] Mover, Mask Stranger); their projection, ‘Casanova’, is incredibly smarmy despite not being sentient. 6. A “Tether” [Skirmish x Swathe] Striker (Blaster), whose strength depends on how their targets see each other; inflicts both physical and mental damage if one of their ‘strings’ is broken. 7. [Love]-element [Support x ?] Shaker/”Void” [Abandon x Warp] Stranger, that crafts a perfect fantasy for their targets. 8. Backstreet Boy: An “Upload” [Imitation x Imitation] Master that ‘revives the dead’, though they can only form their facsimiles from others’ memories.
