Okay, now Nyton's stretching my suspension of disbelief.
I was rather willing to indulge the secret agent 007 Nyton "Bond" Claymere. I figured, if it was fun for Blas, why not?
But, now, he's packing medical stuff? So, since the beginning - in terms of 'family-granted equipment' - he's shown us holograms, tripwire traps, drones, eyepieces to control/see-through-the-drones, cloaking shrouds and disguise apparatuses for everyone along with those stun barb gloves (whom apparently no longer just stun). I'm seeing no attrition of those supplies in sight. And he's the one whom has plentiful resources whereas everyone else has to make do with half-a-day-ago prepared toolboxes and scrounged up weapons.
I'm starting to find that the gadget bit is overpowering what I expect Nyton's brand of resourcefulness to be. To be earnest, I was ready and willing to indulge a speciality (I did give you time to prepare) - but this is getting too swissknife-at-will for me. MacGyver was cool because he often produced solutions from his environment, but Nyton isn't being like MacGyver - he's come all equipped with gadgets and they span such a wide-spectrum of uses that it's no longer clever... just gratuitous. Not to mention the nature of the gadgets and what they empower him to do: I thought Nyton was an infantryman whom graduated into being a ship's tactical officer... and then toed into being an entrepreneur... not a secret agent/spy. Heck, Yukari's dabbled in that actively in the last couple of years, and she's nowhere near his level. Reika, the real spy, only has a
bracelet.
Am I the only one whom is nuts for seeing this contrast and thinking something is wrong?
Also, I'm seeing gadgets, but not other Nyton-like stuff. For example, paranoia:
- He's leaving their group's most vulnerable member in the care of an ally they have a lukewarm-level of trust in. Really?
- That room hasn't been scouted out. He has no more drones. So the plan is to bring the super-vulnerable Tom inside? Really?
Even if Nyton respects Yukari's leadership, the area where she shines are flying or marksmanship (and being earnest even when it's inconvenient). He's the one with the battlefield savvy (there is a reason why Nyton manages to survive while being under fire outside cover when his plans are foiled) - especially considering he's practically on hometurf. Surely there's somesort of way of showing more of that.
Hence I'm putting my foot down. Edits are in order. In fact, you can redo your entire post if you'd like.
@Nyton does not have first aid in his gadgets. If you want first aid, find a first aid kit or find an infirmary (or have Ayumu along). Otherwise, trust that Yukari's neko regeneration will get on top of that.
Focus on qualities that's made your character what he is, not crutches like gadgets.
Note, I'm not angry, and I realize this can come across as bossily blunt. I'm just trying to thoroughly make my point. Hopefully you'll relate to my dismay as GM. I'm trying to balance my players having fun, my players having the power to accomplish something, while trying not to trivialize the experience as well as giving each moments to shine. I'm worried this post sounds nastier than I mean it to be and I'm very tempted to shrink it down to only my request for edits... but I think you benefit more by having the whole picture.
