To the members of this community,
I am certain that everyone is aware of the importance in the entity of power. Logically, a certain amount of strength is necessary for survival.
However, history has proven many instances where people have succumbed to their greed of acquiring too much power. They can be easily led down the wrong path, and then left wandering around in the eternal darkness of their own creation. Power that exceeds reasonable limitations would likely cause fear and discontentment amongst many of the bystanders affected by the carrier.
And yet, in spite of knowing these dangers, people continue to have the desire to become stronger, and some pursue their goal relentlessly, regardless of the possible consequences.
Those of you that may have been affected by, or even experienced this ordeal, what would you be willing to risk, and perhaps even relinquish completely, in the pursuit of power? How does one decide which point is appropriate to stop?
Signed,
Gaara of the Desert

Re: [Locked to Johnny]
Huh, okay. I'll keep that in mind.
[Locked to Johnny]
However, if you want to improve your ability at close-range fighting, I can conform to that as well.
Re: [Locked to Johnny]
Sure, if it's not too much trouble for you.
[Locked to Johnny]
Well. They did find an aspect of interest in the blood samples obtained from you.
Re: [Locked to Johnny]
Wait, what? They said something was funny, but...so they actually figured it out?
[Locked to Johnny]
Johnny. I thought your father was a regular human being.
My staff has detected an anomaly in your mitochondrial structure.
Re: [Locked to Johnny]
...mito-what? I'm pretty sure I have a skeletal structure just like any other person.
[Locked to Johnny]
Your mitochondria. Those are one of many entities inside the cells of your body.
Re: [Locked to Johnny]
...okay, I've heard of cells before.
Not that I actually understand them.So. What kind of anomaly is it? Harmless quirk, kinda suspicious, or--nah, it can't be that serious, you would've told me sooner. But what's up?((strike is hackable!))
[Locked to Johnny]
They have yet to fully determine whether or not it is dangerous. However, the discovered aspect is most certainly unusual.
...There was no course in your school on biological studies?
Re: [Locked to Johnny]
...Could you be a little more specific? In my experience, "unusual" often means "will gladly rip off your head, turn your skin inside-out and wear your intestines like a feather boa." What do they think so far?
Hey, I got taught biology perfectly fine! I know my organs and my bones and all that, my world just doesn't have cells or something. I don't know!
[Locked to Johnny]
*blink of mild surprise*
...Excuse me?
Amongst other duties, mitochondria also happen to be responsible for controlling the cycle and growth of cells. They believe the Malice is affecting these two particular attributes.
...Johnny. Your entire body is made out of cells. Where do you think your DNA is stored?
Re: [Locked to Johnny]
A cycle of cells. Okay. And I'm not really sure about the DNA thing, I didn't even hear about cells or DNA until I joined this community, how am I supposed to figure these things out? Just, is it a good effect or a bad one?
((He feels like he's got a body full of ticking time bombs right now. ...wow. XD A LITTLE REASSURANCE, GAARA?))
[Locked to Johnny]
My staff is unable to determine that at present. They may need more time, resources, or additional samples from you.
(OOC: No. ಠ_ಠ Gaara wants Johnny to think that he's gonna magically explode one day. For the lulz.)
