What about the physical mutations thing, or was it decided to put that in a different RP.

I need to think up a good object to shift into. I'm probably going to be using the half-forms exclusively.
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Yeah, I figured that we didn't need two gimmicks for this, plus the half way forms kinda covers the physical mutations idea. We can still do an RP with the physical mutation, I had just scrapped the idea since it didn't show much interest.

Yeah, it kinda reminded me of Ninchila's Rapture Virus idea.

The only diff is that yours implies mutants with no powers, but still get the physical mutation.

Arthur Walter

Morph: Armadillo

Normal Mode:  In his normal form, Arthur is a stout man of average height with a few tattoos and brown hair.

Hybrid Mode:  When using his hybrid form, Arthur becomes more like an Armadillo. He becomes shorter and more board, with leathery plates along his outer arms and back. His fingers also become clawed like an Armadillo.

Strengths

-Increased Durability

 Arthur is far more durable in in hybrid form, due to both toughened skin and the leather plating.

-Burrowing Abilities

 Calling on the Armadillo side of his morph, Arthur can dig swiftly through most dirt and earth. He can not burrow through solid stone or very compacted dirt.

-Rolling Movement

 By curling up, Arthur can move with great speed by rolling. While rolling his armored sections protect most of his body and he moves much faster.

Weaknesses

-Limited Movement
 
 Due to both the armored plates and the differences in form, his hybrid form is much slower moving by conventional means of movement, not counting burrowing or rolling. He also is much less flexible.

-Lower Stamina
 
 Being somewhat heavier than in his normal form, Arthur is more easily exhausted from movement or physical activity.


Full Form: Arthur looses more of his humanoid form, and becomes an armadillo about the size of a large dog.

Strengths
.
-Increased Durability

 In this form, he is much more durable than a normal armadillo, to the point that bullets have been known to be stopped by his shell.

-Burrowing

 The speed and ease of his burrowing skills increase drastically. Even very compact earth gives way eventually.

-Rolling

 While his rolling position is less damaging than in his hybrid form, it is much faster in this form. He can use it in this form to bounce off walls and ricochet off people.

Weaknesses

-Limited Movement

 Even more so than the hybrid form, this form is inflexible and slow moving barring burrowing or rolling.

-Lower Stamina

 As a rather large Armadillio, Arthur tires rather easily. His low metabolism makes this even worse.

-Low Strength

 Because of the loss of size, Arthur's armadillo form is much weaker than his normal one.




And now you know why I needed random things.

Like what you did for Evolutionist's Stone.

Nice.

I do wonder if it's a good idea though.

Because in doing this, it does limit the hybrid forms to one thing. Which could make doing things like making your arm a shield to stop a bullet or something difficult.

If you're a shield morph with a set hybrid form, then you can't just turn part of your body into a shield if needed.

Yes and no. You can turn part of your body into a semi-sheild, but it is the same part every time.

And capable of strangulation.

Not to mention being awesome for unclogging drains...
