Did You Know That Blasto Isn't Actually A Tinker?

Did you know that Blasto isn't actually a tinker?

That's right! He actually has a tiny (normal size) Bonesaw living in his brain and ratatouilleing him at all times to make him build all his famous inventions like.

mushrooms. and

angel wizards.

She does this because Jack won't let her have any weed

In fact, this ratatouilleing is why Blasto was so susceptible to normal size (normal size) Bonesaw's bodyjacking after Defiant cut her in half

Her prehensile spine doesn't even have a bodyjacking function.

Blasto's just like that

The more you know!

Things you never say to someone who just came out (Worm Editition)

Sylvester what are you doing here?!?!

We love Worm Reddit here, don't we folks

sad sopping wet Sylvester Sunday

Another thing I like about Worm's power system is that it all powers coming from interdimensional aliens means that the character doesn't have to have a big convoluted backstory about how they got their powers. It's similar to the X men in that sense.

Also it means you can have way more weird and abstract powers like King being able to distribute the damage he takes to anyone he's touched in the last 24 hours. You couldn't really have a power like that in Marvel or DC without it feeling out of place in the setting

I think what I really love about the Parahuman power system is that, with Shards being alive and determining the “rules” of the setting, it creates a lot of neat variations of limitations and weaknesses for power use.

Taylor can’t control mites but she can control some crawfish

Grey Boy can’t loop memories, but Cody can

Victoria can only take 1 hard hit but can hold out against beams

Spitfire can ignite accelerant but isn’t fire proof

Dinah can see the future but can’t lie or control it

And on and on.

Plus, with Shard seeing alive, that means that they can adapt within these guidelines so we get Taylor getting wider range, Dinah able to ask more questions, Victoria having more forcefield control etc etc

I like Ink5oul but they are not scary as a horror villain. Like you can't tell me the idea of Gwen being chased by goth influencer with a tattoo needle isn't comedy gold
