Re: [OOC] Freedom Tower Super Lounge
Blargh, this is what happens when I think a thing and forget to write down what that thing means. Sorry.
"The Light" was meant to be IC shorthand for an abstract concept. He doesn't know where his powers come from, or how to explain what exactly they do. He just knows that they are light-based, and the more he "embraces" or "leans into" The Light, the more his powers manifest.
Writing-wise, it's also how I see the Green to Red Zone progression. The more in phase Starblaze is with light, the more he starts existing at special relativistic scales of space-time and the harder time he has reconciling that existence with human scales of space-time. If he gets knocked out or goes full special relativity, he has no idea what will happen (consciousness gets sucked out of his head, his body dissipates into energy, etc.).
Radiant was the closest element to light in the book because that's also the definition of light energy (radiant energy = em radiation, which includes light). Could we just call his element "Light" to keep it specific and well-defined? That would make my brain happy.
