Jorlem's current avatar. It is Mathis Bleu, from the Fortuna Saga public sprite sheet.

Jorlem The Poster

Jorlem is a long time reader of EGS, but only started posting shortly before the EOU launched their attack on Mayhem. He signed in at the newbie thread, but was eager to try to help, and left before he got his full share of glompings, and also did not get all of the possible newbie gifts/supplies. Jorlem is a member of the EGS Defence Force.

Jorlem The Character

Jorlem is a very curious and inquisitive person. His first response to something new and strange is to either ask about it, or try to do research on it. This is made easier by the fact that Jorlem is also a speed reader, and can therefore read and absorb information from books very quickly. He fought in the first Battle of the Mall, and helped to seal the interdimensional rift that was created during that battle.

Jorlem's Inventory

When not in use, most items are stored in a storage space behind Jorlem's back, which is only present when he is not looking.

• 1 TF Gun
• 1 Squirrel Teddy
• 1 Cookie in a shiny wrapper
• 5 cans of unlabeled soda (One was accidentally launched out of a grenade launcher at some EOU robots)
• 1 dead fish
• 1 Elliot voodoo doll
• 1 fire extinguisher
• 1 grenade launcher (With a very large amount of grenades)
• 1 plasma grenade
• 1 plasma grenade manual
• 1 Jetpack (taken from a downed clone of Genghis Khan)
• 1 copy of Tesseracts, Wormholes, and Other Interdimensional Anomalies, by The Teleporter.
• 1 Stabilizer (It is about three and a half feet long, tapers from a foot wide to nearly a point. Instead of a point at the tip, there is a small, concave energy emitter. It has a tripod that can be folded up, and a shoulder strap for easy carrying. It has an opening at the top that a DRACO bracelet or the PFS can be fitted into. It is also, for some reason, a bright orange.)
• 1 PFS (Portal Frequency Scanner. (It can scan sites where there were interdimensional portals, such as DRACO portals, and use this data to extrapolate and then create a stabilization field that matches the one needed for that portal.) It is currently attached to the Stabilizer.)
• 1 Terran Defense Force Mk. 1 Light Infantry Battle Armor, with a zero-G maneuvering pack attached. The maneuvering pack allows for about 10 minutes of constant propulsion in zero gravity. (Picture by Jstone)

Jorlem's Abilities/Powers

Jorlem can create a pair of linked wormholes within a range of about 25 feet of himself. The wormholes are disc shaped, and have a maximum diameter of about 6 feet. The wormholes, once created, cannot be moved, so if the wormholes are needed in a different position or location the current wormholes need to be closed, and new ones opened at the new locations. The wormholes can be opened and closed with just a thought, but opening and closing several in quick succession will leave Jorlem out of breath for a moment. These wormholes have proved very useful as shields, and for redirecting enemy fire, among other things. For the time being, Jorlem can create two sets of wormhole, and move them around without needing to close and reopen them. This is indirectly a result of A Fan's attack on a DRACO portal, which resulted in an interdimensional rift, which weakened the fabric of reality, making it easier for dimensional manipulations, such as the wormholes, to be performed. After the rift was sealed, Jorlem retained these increased powers by absorbing dimensional energy that had collected in the Stabilizer. Also, because of absorbing this energy, the range he can open wormholes increased to about 50 feet, and he can also open wormholes to places that he has been before, such as the mall, or Fort Mayhem. He has also developed a sort of extradimensional storage space.
