Evangeline is a 5, but she goes up one level for every episode/commercial break she charges up in. Also if she removes her special weighted clothes, or takes off her glasses in order to release her true power.

I choose option 3.5: Roger Muraugh: Too old for this shit/John Wick: You killed my dog. Â
Retired and not as powerful, waiting for an excuse to turn back "on" and twist someone's head off and play ball with it. |

Where would a talented non-combat conjurer working as a Hearer of no real importance fit?

See, I've always thought of T'rahnu as the type of person who can, with a bit of help and the right motivation, solo an entire castrum (note: the plan involves stealing a magitek walker or three)... so I guess somewhere between #2 and 3? Now, getting her to actually attempt that is a bit of a challenge...
Her own estimation of her abilities is actually considerably below what she is fully capable of. As such, she retreats from situations where she would actually come out on top just to be safe. Even if she can do it, with lots of planning and some minor assistance, she'd just as well not try in the first place because, seriously, it sounds like suicide, and it very well could be if things don't go her way. To answer an assertion made in the locked thread (rather rudely, but hey, I don't like leaving things hanging like that), my issue with RP-PvP with a character like this is the obvious fact that having someone at a much lower level - say, around #4 or 5 - beat her up... just doesn't make a lot of sense most of the time. It's like (Fate Stay/Night reference) a regular mage beating up a Heroic Servant. That takes extraordinary circumstances and at least some luck, as well as the element of surprise, and how often does that happen? This isn't RL, after all, and the differences between those who have the power and those who don't are enormous, far greater than even the already-wide gulfs you see today between practitioners of martial arts and regular Joes. Even David vs Goliath doesn't accurately describe the kind of chasm we're seeing here. You can reference RL combat all you like, but no RL person can leap fifty yalms into the air, immediately change direction and rocket down into their target while simultaneously surviving the fall and taking no damage themselves. Or wield an enormous axe made entirely out of heavy metal and swing it with enough force to send a man flying 20 yalms behind them. So, you know, don't take it personally if I'd rather not gimp my OP character to accommodate characters at a lower power level. If I can't find an out, in the form of my character simply not taking the fight seriously or having motivation to throw it entirely, I just won't participate. And that's most of the time, really. I have a specific vision in mind for my character so I'm not going to sacrifice that for the sake of others. Just not how I play. Fortunately, 99% of RP involves no physical violence whatsoever, so it really never comes up anyways. That's a good thing, isn't it? |

Val is a 4.
Cyrus is a 6. Vallois is a 5. Melfice is a 3, but only under certain circumstances, and as I've stated multiple times before, he's only there for plots that need a boss or people that need assistance with certain matters. I rarely ever, if at all, take him out in public. |

#4, but rarely makes use of it?
I generally assume that player characters are "adventurers" and thus if not on the WoL's level, then are at least capable of standing next to him and contributing to any given task/fight he might undertake (he referring to Derplander). It's up to the players to show me their characters are not the "adventurers" I've assumed them to be, which is all lovely and good, but simply not my starting point. I assume PCs are between 3 and 4. If they go up from there, I eyebrow raise, but perhaps they have plot reasons to be uberpowerful, and they have a kryptonite somewhere, so I give benefit of the doubt and play along (until given reason otherwise). If they go down from there, I assume stylistic choice on the part of the player and respond accordingly and with respect. |

I'm on the odd end of the spectrum where ive been playing weaker  characters for so long i wanted someone stronk and tough. So mistalv is between 2-3 depending on her day and mood. Or if she feels like holding ba ck at all or not.

Normally in my stories, my characters are a 1, but for you guys, I have to handicap them. For RP with you guys, they are a 4. Well perhaps Niklas is a 3.

3.5 He's a master at Dragoon Arts but I'm not making him the most dragoony dragoon. I've had enough encounters in Verad's roll campaign to show that Orrin tears through NPC's....except for that one damn Miqo'te >_>
