What character would you like to see get a power up?
« on: May 21, 2018, 06:58:01 PM »
Subject speaks for itself.  I'd like to see Thomas get one from the death of his father.  Something like the eldest son receives Raith's protective shield or something like that.
Stole this from Reginald because it was so well put, and is true for me as well.

I had Thomas down for Ammorachius as his big Upgrade, though something inherited from Pap Wraith would be cool, or more likely something Outsidery that Pops was desperate to keep from being Passed Along to the next Heir (male heir, since he was as much a misogynist as all the "old fashioned" monsters).

More signs of advanced Shapeshifting from the Alphas. 

Id be interested to see Marcone get something more than Chutzpah.  Same for Murphy, though for both they do anchor the setting as what "vanilla" can do.

I want to see a post-GS Mort, and all the power-up I fully expect him to have accomplished once he decided to start actually Fighting. 

Carlos.  Poor guy deserves an upgrade.

Father Forthill. Maybe he'll become El papa.

Maybe we'll get an actual in-world definition of "Saint".

If that's the case, I hope it's nothing like the Greatcoats saints. Bleh.

Noooooooooooo. That'll ruin the whole series. No. No. NO.

I want Bob to get a power up.  Or maybe a hall-pass up.  Let him have a backup sanctum so his skull can be put onto a skeleton, and let him have some mobility a la Evil Bob doing his Red Skull impersonation in GS.

That way the two can go mano-e-mano the next time they meet up.

Bob already got a power up. A major one. Butters gave him the internet, Knowledge is power. Bob should be a heavy hitter now.

But he can't *use* it.  We saw Bob possess a statue in Skin Game and rampage through the enemy.  He similarly possessed Sue in DB.  His darker half cast spells and operated on his own.  But unless he's helping Butters, who got his own power up, Bob's limited in what he's free to do.

Bob is capable of a lot, and I want to see him in action.  I had plans for that eventually in my fanfics, but I don't know that I'll ever finish those. 

I want to see him in a metal (not iron) skull that's attached to a metal (not iron) body, where he can take the field with Team Dresden.  Give a skull charm to Harry and/or Butters that's linked to the skull, so he stays in their "possession". 




Then he can wrap it all up in ectoplasmic flesh modeled after something he's familiar with.

I have this image in my mind (have had for a while ) of Harry summoning Toot and expecting to see him come zipping in, and instead we see a full size man (or maybe teen) come walking down the alley instead, with a bit more maturity and dignity than he had as the tiny critter he was.

As for Thomas, while he might get something from Raith, somehow, I don't expect it to be something Raith chooses to leave to him.  Not like Raith is actually planning on having a successor, since he plans on living forever.

I want the Alpha's to learn how to take the form of the Loup.

Because having a couple of those with a fully-functioning human mind behind them would be awesome. And terrifying. Awesifying.

I want them to get a happier ending than becoming the hosts of that Curse...

Not hosts of the curse, just using shapeshifting to reverse-engineer the form as a controlled state (Basically what they can do now, except they're Giant Super-Wolfs that are near-immune to magic and can shrug off being thrown through a skyscraper).
