(all links go to different parts of the webcomic that are relevant to what I'm talking about)

I seem to have a habit of picking up characters with interesting issues, so now it's time to explain Agatha's.

She's a Spark (aka Mad Scientist) builds monstrosities that defy the laws of nature in a matter of hours. Agatha's not a bad person so its not like she's going to run around and build a robot army to take over Traverse Town, but she could if she wanted to.

The other thing about Agatha that's relevant is the fact she's got the Other in her head (scroll towards the bottom of the first link). Unlike Agatha, the Other is a bad person and her mother! Right now the only thing keeping Agatha from losing control is the broach her Uncle Barry gave her. Agatha can regain some temporary control when her body gets exhausted.

Another interesting thing that might happen while the Other is running about is she might make some Silver Wasps. Which are really fast and strong and hard to kill. The extremely atheletic Gil (who had been shot in the shoulder prior in the first link) has issues fighting the blasted things. There will be notification if these babies get released and/or a robot army gets released.

On a side note, only Sena and the Doctor know about Agatha's whole having the Other running around in her head thing.

So what does everyone say to Agatha losing her broach and the Other coming out and trying to take over town?

If I did this, the Other would run on the same account as Agatha does (since they share the same body). I'll clarify which one is in control if someone asks me oocly, but to be IC there will be little distinction other than how she acts (so observant characters will totally be able to pick up a difference).

	IDK I have different icons for Mikhail when he takes over Teito and I'm pretty sure Axelle does the same with Yami/Yuugi. I mean that's one thing you can try if possible? I'm up for someone trying to take over the town. Could be interesting :] (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Well there aren't many icons available of the Other.... But I suppose I could hack up one maybe two. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Aw, I see. Just a thought. I think though as long as it's clarified ICly through her actions/thoughts/etc you should be okay :] (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Well the issue is Agatha doesn't undergo a physical change. Nothing changes but her words and actions, so its not really cannon for me to make a new icon. The Other likes to think a lot, so I'll just make it so that she's got some sort of thought going on or something more IC like that. And when Agatha comes back in control I'll make it clear. Would that help? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That sounds sufficient to me~ (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Yeah when I play as Yami-Yuugi, I use bold italics or just regular bold so people know. Plus, in the English dub, Dan Green's Yami!voice is more commanding, to I tend to imagine it as being bold. XD (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

It's not quite the same thing. Agatha and the Other don't talk to one another and only one is in control of the body. And there's no physical transformations, so she looks the same, smells the same, same voice (all of which are cannon).

I can make the posts all italics or something if its the Other. But the reality is that the other characters in the RP shouldn't be able to tell Agatha apart from the Other unless they know Agatha well.... And I admit Agatha hasn't interacted with the majority of the Traverse population, so they'd rightfully assume when the Other's running around trying to take over the place that that's just how Agatha acts.

What that's not the case, lol.

	In any case it shouldn't be a problem. In your comments I'd just write it using Other instead of Agatha? XD Like instead of 'Agatha stomped her foot' you write 'The Other stomped her foot' or something? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	I was intending to do that. Though, to I'd be calling her Lucrezia since that's her real name. But yeah, I understand what you meant. (Reply to this)(Parent)
