Jakob is able to glide somewhat, e.g. http://nice.purrsia.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=79;t=000965;p=118#002941
(which I actually stole from
Dumbledore's death in the style of H. P. Lovecraft)
..he can use them to break his fall. But he can't actually fly as such. He learned to do this during his stay at SAIA, which is why he didn't just jump out of his apartment.
Paladin has the ability but due the the weight of the armor and weapons he does tire.
That wasn't flying, that was falling with style.
...although, in Dan's case, it's just falling :P
Well, Dan does have a weird sense of style, doesn't he?
Nice rant by Mike's cat, by the way. And he didn't even post the cat's name. :\
Maybe Dan should take a page from Abel and hide his wings when not in use... c'mon we all know the sudden flush of feathers and materialization of wings would be a cool scene.
Until Dan looks down and sees the sudden materialization of his wings has knocked his robe off.
Mike's cat is named Miss Kitty. For those of you who are wondering, his mother named her. ;)

And thus, the coolness quintuples.
This reminds me of a certain 'Friends' episode...
MONICA: Hi. Uh, my friend here was taking down our Christmas lights, and she fell off the balcony and may have broken her foot or ankle or something.
NURSE: My god. You still have your Christmas lights up? Fill this out and bring it back to me.
RACHEL: Ow ow ow. Ow ow ow. Ow ow ow.
MONICA: All right. Name, address...Ok, in case of emergency call?
RACHEL: You.
MONICA: Really?
RACHEL: Yeah.
MONICA: Oh, that is so sweet. Oh gosh. I love you. Insurance?
RACHEL: Oh, yeah, check it. Definitely, I want some of that.
Ironically, Jyrras is probably able to build a jetpack with his eyes closed :mowdan
*Charles thinks of a swarm of cubi all flitting about bug zappers like moths* Hee hee... *he then thinks about Charline getting too close to the bug zapper* Ha ha ha ha!
*Charline appears behind and growls with fiery wrath* You seem to have forgotten than I can read minds! *flamey rage!* :boom
*Charles meep* :boggle

Why do I keep thinking of Sailor Moon when trying to imagine this?
Yes, a henshin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henshin) scene with Dan's wings spreading out in all their glory would be awesome, but thanks to years of anime, the end results always contains miniskirts, high-heeled boots... and Daniel fricken Ti'Fiona. 'A'
THANK YOU FOR DESTROYING MY MIND, FORUM! D:
funny stuff I was laughing my ass off.
Zedd you might want to put the date on the thread so noone starts a new thread for this by accident
I can fly with great speed and maneuverability but i prefer to keep on the ground... all it takes is a mage with a little proficiency in wind and.. whoosh-splat... *shivers*
tis a pretty funny comic, had me grinnin'.
and he did get the lights.

/me accidentially nudges Charline into the Chocolate Fondue Fountain, followed by fleeing far away.

Everytime I look at that strip I picture Mab, pyroduck, and wildy running for dear life as the plane comes crashing down because of the bird...er weasel strike to the engine and wing.
That or the pilot saying " Ack that's the fifth one this week! It's a good thing we had the plane's enchantment renewed." and continue flying.

Infiltrating the amazon nation, of course. They wouldn't let a *man* in...
You guys ever worn high heels before? Er, not that I have, but there are legitimate reasons for wearing them during training. The balance you need is superb!
Or he's just a sleeper agent in the amazonian world.
Never never worn high heels, and there are other ways to train for balence. Try walking a tight rope or pole walking :P
Well, TECHNICALLY they don't allow men in, but do you know what they do with the men they capture? :3

Maybe, but how do you think they keep their numbers up...?

Lies. That is just propoganda. It's a well known fact that Amazonians capture unwilling males for mating rituals. Then they devour them! D:

It's widely accepted that the rituals involve replacing lightbulbs, fixing shelves, mowing lawns etc, and will wear down the strongest consitution in short order...

This just popped into my head
**Good evening and this is the six-oclock news. Today a winged furry flew into a main power line, knocking out power to the west end of the city for over a hour. thankfully the furry survived and had this to say for herself. "I was running late for work and I missed my bus, there wasn't going to be another bus for a hour. I knew if I was late today my boss would fire me. so I decided to wing it."
the mayor would like to remind everyone that there is a flying ban within the city. if you wish to fly there are several flight parks, many of which are only a hour away, and offer many flying lessons such as "defencive flying. how to recognize dangerous obstacles while in flight" and instructions on how to use the new GPS/ proximity detector that is now required for anyone flying outside parks**
*edit I blame this on the cold medication and the late hour*

Just go back to the very first post in the thread, hit the "Modify" button (should be right next to the "Quote" button, maybe a few skins call it "Edit", I dunno, I'm using the DMFA Skin) and insert a "07/28/06" (or "28/07/06", or whatever dateformat you like) either at the beginning or the end of the Subject line.
For example: "07/28/06 - Look out for those see thru windows"

Just one nitpick: I suspect flying into a 3-phase 110kv supply counts as 'being killed by normal means' D:

It goes really weird if you modify the title in the last post :)
Well the only way one could get killed like that would be by flying into 2 or more lines, thus causing a short-circut between lines and turning the flyer into the biggest pair of crispy chicken wings in the world.
that or him snapping the line and coming into contact with both live ends and a simular result occuring.
(I beleve thats the way it works, otherwise every sparrow that ever landed on a power wire would be popcorn chicken in half a heartbeat)
Yeah, and in a world where people flying into power lines is a distinct possibility, they may either have different designs to prevent such a stupid hilarious tragic thing from occuring.
That, or some giant ACHTUNG AVERTISSEMENT WARNING OHSA approved signs.
Yes, that is the way it works Drake... although I think just one end of a cut powerline is enough for ELECTROCUTION FUN TRAGEDY

Yes - you either have to short the power line to ground, or across phases. Of course you don't necessarily have to touch them to do that:

And it gets worse on 230kv lines:
http://205.243.100.155/frames/longarc.htm#Disconnect
..on that site there's also a 500kv arc.
Just quickly searching, there seem to be a number of glider pilots who've survived hitting 11kv feeds (with 15% burns or so). I'm not sure about 110kv though.
Weeee! All my hairs have lit up! :-)+)
