A missile ment for a presant or future based RPG
It's a trainee’s worst nightmare. When flying these rockets explode when reaching a certain distance from the plane, splattering it with thick black ink that the pilot must clean himself. When doing this the character must roll a kind of willpower check. If they don’t pass it they get horribly mad and go into a blind rage.
The devil's wind. Explains why people become crazy. They are caught up in this wind which steals their sanity which in turn feeds the wind. The wind is a leftover from when the air elementals banded together in a mass army at one point to attack the True Gods. The wind is leftover of their attack route and on the anniversary of the battle the wind sweeps through causing the madness.

Firstly, for the ink to hit the pilot, he would have to be in an exposed cockpit and flying slow and low enough for that. Even in that case, the missile would have to be able to explode infront of the plane to hit him, but that can be done with a computer as smart as an everyday calculator. But then to cover the plane, it has to be gallons and gallons of ink, at least 10 or twenty, and that is going to make it's flight characteristics all messed up, so a real missile will behave completely differently. And even when flying low and slow enought for an open cockpit, most any liquid will be blown away by the force of the wind, so for the ink to stick it would have to be very viscious and sticky as well, like a mucus or snot.
Aside from the physics of the thing, Why will the pilot go into a blind rage? Who uses it, who invented it, why not just use a lock on training system so they don't waste potentially useful ammunitions? What's the story?

First off I never said it hit the pilot, also I never said it covered the whole plane ether. It jus covers about square yard of it. Your right in the since that it would be horribly sticky, it has the consistency of tar mixed with super glue and dries at extremely fast rates. Oh and the blind rage thing I am sure you would get very angry when trying to clean supper glue and tar off anything while your superiors yell at you for being incompetent. The reason I came up with this is to liven up a generally boring training system. (How many times have you ever enjoyed the tutorial in anything?) It’s more fun to dodge something visible then invisible.
P.S. Thanks for the input you really helped to fill up some holes. :)

I don't play to be realistic, but common sense has to reign supreme. If this ink only covers a square yard then it would have to be one hell of a shot...or hundreds of them used at the same time.
I highly doubt any kind of training would entail shooting a tar ball of super glue at anybody. And the last person to clean it would be the pilots...it would be the maintenance person. Pilots don't do manual labor, even in space I would think. That only happens in Star Wars but then they have droids to do it. Even if they did clean it they wouldn't do it in the air...how would they? Whey would you want blind rage in a training mission anyway? After all, if this happened everytime I am sure they would stop using it because of the multiple training accidents it caused.
It would be better off just staying ink that did come off after a few minutes and get rid of the rage part.
