There are two known ways of accomplishing this, though more may be discovered through trial and error. Her Majesty may elect a Royal Court, who, among other things, become immune to fusion matter poisoning. She may also induct an outsider into Her domain as a thrall, which renders them immune to fusion matter poisoning out of necessity.

Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 02:10 PM
no need to make assumptions like that, itll just stress taylor out
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 02:11 PM
Members of Her Majesty's Court gain boons similar to the ones Her Majesty has, if somewhat weaker. Thralls are bound to Her Majesty's will, and though they have minimal mutations by default, they may be given additional mutations.
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 02:12 PM
What boons does Taylor have, other than Fusion matter immunity?
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 02:14 PM
The ability to communicate through this channel. Increased physical ability - approximately peak human. Self-resurrection. The ability to shape and command fusion matter.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 02:14 PM
how does the self-resurrection work?
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 02:16 PM
If Her Majesty or a member of Her Court were to perish, their soul would be sent to a terrafuser of choice and have a new body constructed when enough fusion matter is available - 1.0 standard units.
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 02:17 PM
this honestly sounds like a very good thing.
How does Taylor induct someone into her court?
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 02:19 PM
Her Majesty must simply ask me to do so, and I will connect with them. However, the process to remove someone from Her Court requires bringing them to a terrafuser and keeping them in place for 1 minute.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 02:19 PM
ok, so preferably if we have to do that they'd be unconscious
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 02:19 PM

Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 02:20 PM
proximity to large source of fusion matter being administrated by fusion-drive, id assume ?
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 02:20 PM
It would require either cooperation, unconsciousness, or restraints.
The exiled court-member would lose their boons over the course of 24 hours, so they would need to be removed from proximity of any fusion matter if Her Majesty wanted them to live.

Haywire assembly next to Terrafuser that opens temporary portals to you, allowing it to drop the items to you.

randomhuman4406-Mar-21 03:07 PM
I do think she would be quite restricted in the Wards, however, if she really wants to join she could.
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:07 PM
If I ever want to join a government hero group, it's going to be the Protectorate when I turn 18. Even then, I'm not exactly enthusiastic about it.
I'm just going to say that they fucked me over big time, and leave it at that.
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 03:08 PM
Oh, you found out about that already?
Wait, what's the date there?
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:10 PM
It's the 1st of February. Why?
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 03:11 PM

Uh, sure.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:11 PM
anyways, moving the terrafuser

Right.

Re-anchoring the terrafuser.

It is.
The stars are so bright!
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:13 PM
with enough time, you might be able to make housing over there, just straight up move off earth bet, if you wanted
no endbringers, no capitalist drama, but also no potentially saving the world from endbringers, if you try to build up enough
there's pros and cons to the idea
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:14 PM
It's more tempting than I'd like to admit.
But no, I want to make a difference.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:15 PM
either way, earth gimel is an idea for a bugout base
it'll probably be some time before you're ready to actually start caping - a few months of buildup might make the difference
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:16 PM
Yeah.
I don't want to go out under-prepared.
So I need some sort of hero costume.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:17 PM
id suggest 40k's tech, but if i recall rightly it requires implants for the armor
fallout's power armor might work in that regard
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 03:17 PM
How much fusion matter did the node use? If 10 is enough to make an interdimensional portal, I'm sure 1-3 is enough for a decent costume. Maybe more if you want actual good armor though.
weaver costume, comes with tinkertech jetpack and pro craftsmanship
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 03:19 PM
Mobility and defense.
Need some way to actually take people down though.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:19 PM
i think we're getting ahead of ourselves, though - we should probably look into options for making more fusion matter
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 03:20 PM
Conversion of matter into fusion matter produces as much fusion matter as it takes to convert. In short, a net 0 increase in fusion matter. Data on more efficient conversion was lost.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:21 PM
this seems like something that's worth researching and experimenting with
maybe some data from bakuda's explosives...
though, im not sure if she's a cape yet
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 03:22 PM
Use Phir Se to draw fusion matter from the future? Awfully energy inefficient I know, but might work?
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:23 PM
I feel like playing with time travel is just asking for a time paradox.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:23 PM
probably yeah
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:23 PM
So, do I create the Weaver armor, then?
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:23 PM
...i say hold off
you'll be tempted to use it if you have it
we want to build up first, rather than rush in
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:24 PM
Right.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:25 PM
i did think of a way to get you even more superpowers, though - null of the yangban, or othala from e88, you could make fusions of em
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:25 PM
Oh, that could work.
Is there anything from fiction that gives powers?
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:25 PM

randomhuman4406-Mar-21 03:25 PM
tons lol
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:26 PM
captain america serum, gamma rays, spider-man spider
...the spider man spider is a good idea actually. also, venom suit
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 03:26 PM
But it would probs be weakish powers if Weaver costume costs 5
Pika06-Mar-21 03:26 PM
(Brb)
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:26 PM
venom suit is naturally goopy, it'll fit with your aesthetic
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 03:26 PM
(also cauldron vials but let's not get into that)
@Fusion-Drive
I know it's not even remotely in our budget, but for scale, how much does this cost?
things that give powers
a team, for backup purposes
a base, for recovery and relaxation purposes
minions, for more disposable cannon-fodder-type backup
personal gear, defensive stuff like a proper costume
personal gear, offensive stuff like a baton and pepper spray
id say, as far as good costume options go, a venom symbiote is a good idea
it'll let you play off like you're a case 53, potentially have constructs that can act as body doubles in the future, significantly boost your natural capabilities, and is another head to help think about this stuff
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:40 PM
I don't know what a venom symbiote is, but that sounds promising.
venom symbiotes are not the kind of thing that makes someone think 'hero', it's true
HMS that image barely helps lol
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:43 PM
id imagine the bright green color from fusion matter might help
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 03:43 PM
I suppose
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:43 PM
the image was supposed to highlight that they can take a more traditional cape bodysuit look
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:44 PM
Right.
You want me to make that first, then?
Or should I start with something else?
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:46 PM
it lets you combine offense, defense, mobility, and minion in one package
itll also probably help you sync up better with other fusion constructs in the future, maybe psychically give orders and such
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 03:48 PM
Venom symbiotes won't be the most heroic looking, even if they're green or whatever color
They're biological organisms and their abilities reflect that. They look strangely fluid at best and disturbingly fleshy at worst.
I don't know how bad that would be. But if it's okay, it's probably worth it to get.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:48 PM
to be fair, everything is gonna be made of fusion matter, so there's gonna be a reflection of that sort of aesthetic in everything taylor gets id imagine
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 03:49 PM
this is... probably true? Taylor was the portal maker green? and fleshy?(edited)
Note: Due to newer research that was not destroyed, fusions can mimic the appearance of flesh. Items created from fusion matter are fully transmuted from fusion matter into regular matter.
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:51 PM
No, the portal box looks like normal metal.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:51 PM

So, what's the plan?
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:54 PM
symbiote, id say - we can customize color when it comes out
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:54 PM
Right. How much does it cost?
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 03:55 PM
A basic copy of Venom would cost 20.0FM.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:56 PM
alright, so waiting a week or so.
little under a week
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 03:58 PM

Can fusions be upgraded after creation?
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 03:59 PM
As long as the thing it's based on would be able to be upgraded normally, yes.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 03:59 PM
hm... idea for power source: jjba stands
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 04:00 PM
A stand arrow would cost 15.0FM. The high threshold for safe use reduces the cost from 25.0FM.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 04:01 PM
noted
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 04:01 PM
A stand disc would vary in cost depending on the stand, starting at 5.0FM for the unnamed boiling water stand.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 04:02 PM
i take it asking for whitesnake or the world is a bad idea
well. star platinum or the world, whitesnake is more moderate
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 04:03 PM
How would it be a bad idea?
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 04:03 PM
cost, mostly - stopping time on such a massive scale seems like itd be expensive, if i had to guess, but i could be wrong
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 04:04 PM
A Star Platinum disc would cost 25.0FM.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 04:04 PM
oh
well i feel dumb lol
how much for weather report?
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 04:06 PM

hmmm... hermit purple, and tusk act 1?(edited)

right. so, since i know stands can be used simultaneously thanks to emporio, some goals for the future then
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 04:13 PM

use haywire tech + jetpack to appear from a weird angle(edited)
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 04:15 PM
I can try that? But I don't know how much a taser is going to do against a metal blender-monster.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 04:15 PM
tinkertech taser, and. well, hes literally made of metal, i feel like there's a type disadvantage there
hm...
actually
would the hermit purple disc come with hamon?
cause thats magic sunlight electrical bullshit
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 04:17 PM
Not by default, but a setting can be enabled allowing the Hermit Purple disc with hamon knowledge to be produced for 10.0FM.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 04:17 PM
is this on top of the original cost, or the flat-out price
Limina Idling | Hours
tinkertech taser, and. well, hes literally made of metal, i feel like there's a type disadvantage there
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 04:18 PM
actually, if the metal fully surrounded his core or weak point or whatever, it would be a type disadvantage as the electricity would flow through the metal instead of the core
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 04:18 PM
crap, point
...how much for a c-moon stand disk?
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 04:18 PM
It's the flat-out price.
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 04:19 PM
What precisely are we aiming to do with Hookwolf here? Incapacitating and capturing is quite different from driving him away.

TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 04:37 PM
And if people see the house being magically repaired?
The Omega-1 Nanite inside of Rex has a self-replicating program, meaning that Rex can create more and more active nanites if needed.[28] This function was seen to be operational when the Molecular Destabilizer was obliterating his active nanites.[36]

Hmm
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 04:44 PM
can we strip out self-replication capacity?
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 04:47 PM
Yes, but in this case, it's only because that could theoretically happen in the original work.
Creep (decontruction/recontruction capacity removed): 5.0FM. This cost is derived from the descriptor 'a pair of these, they often work in pairs, can wipe out a small house in an hour or two if sufficiently impelled'.

-Five insectoid creatures surround a lupine mass of blades, spears, and hooks.
-The mass begins to turn brown and shed powder. It snarls, lashing out at one of the rust monsters.
-The rust monster is able to avoid the blow, but Hookwolf turns on a dime and launches himself at another of the monsters, killing it on impact.
-Hookwolf turns to another of the rust monsters, ready to pounce, but he's pushed back by suppressive fire from Miss Militia.
-He's able to take off the forelegs of another rust monster, but Miss Militia blasts several of his protrusions into dust with a shotgun.
-The rust monsters are distracted by the rust that was blasted off, going in to feast. Hookwolf follows, but Miss Militia finally has the room to pull out something a bit more destructive.
-There's a shower of rusted steel, and Hookwolf collapses. The rust monsters joyfully rush over to their new meal.
Okay, I think Hookwolf is down.

Which'll set me back another day.
Great.
Though, if I get one, I'll have a 0.5FM I'll be able to spend without worrying about setbacks.
Awake06-Mar-21 05:57 PM
True
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 05:59 PM
If I wanted to, I could spend the extra 0.5 on a basic costume and talk to Miss Militia.
...I'm not sure if I want to, though.
Awake06-Mar-21 05:59 PM
Maybe not
Just let it be ambiguous who did it seems the better option
At least until you're better set up
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 06:00 PM
Yeah.
Well, I think that's enough excitement for one day.
Awake06-Mar-21 06:01 PM

Should probably set up an early warning network in case any Cape fights are headed your way in the near future, later
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:02 PM
bioshock plasmids/vigors/tonics
jjba stands
cauldron vials
certain strains of Forced Evolutionary Virus, like whatever they used to make the synths in fallout 4 and whatever lead to psykers
keyblades from kingdom hearts
blacklight virus [prototype] - note, may result in cannibalistic urges
sensen [remember me] - for downloading combat styles

midichlorian injector

various color lantern power rings
garrick formula
new god motherbox
beast boy formula [may result in cosmetic mutations: green skin, green hair]
firestorm matrix
dr fate helmet
blue beetle scarab
marvel:
radioactive spider [spider man]
symbiote [venom stuff]
spirit of vengeance/justice [ghost rider]
that was everything i could think of
Awake06-Mar-21 06:03 PM
Hmm, some of those are sentient and choose wielders, though given they're made of fusion material should work? Hopefully
There's also rings of power from LoTR that might be good, for personal use or for gaining influence
Malaki06-Mar-21 06:08 PM
Atmosphere from psyren when breathed in develops psychic powers
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 06:08 PM
Lord of the rings is on earth bet right? Maybe don't make the archetypal great enemy's rings when someone might recognize them.
TaylorBOT06-Mar-21 06:09 PM
Yeah, a lot of these power-granting are probably going to be 'this won't work unless you're special'-type things.
Power granting things*
Malaki06-Mar-21 06:11 PM
Psyren atmosphere works on everyone it just takes a while for it to kick in

randomhuman4406-Mar-21 06:12 PM
There's this thing which gives random powers.
No conflict drive, but unfortunately the powers are actually even more random than Earth Bet's. May include time travel, though that seems a pretty rare one. May also include the power to be a nuclear bomb, and things along that line of thought.

plasmids work on everyone and we may be able to pay a premium to stabilize em
jjba stands are very possible
cauldron vials work on anyone with chance of mutation
FEV is just a maybe in my books
sensens work for everyone
personas work for rebellious people who got crapped on by society but require metaverse navigation first which is probably expensive/unstable/risky
midichlorians might work
power rings are. a thing.
garrick formula works
new god motherbox just takes a while to turn you into a new god
firestorm matrix requires 2 people
dr fate helmet requires you be orderly
scarab works on anyone, can prolly get specifically blue beetle's
radioactive spider works on anyone seemingly
symbiote works on everyone
spirit of vengeance could work on anyone
Awake06-Mar-21 06:16 PM
FEV might make her a super mutant or someth else which wouldn't be the best prolly
Also midichlorians cant just be injected I think? Unsure
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:18 PM
like i said, the strain they used on synths in fallout 4
as for injecting midichlorians, theyre biological, so why not
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 06:23 PM
i dunno about that
if all you needed to do to become a jedi-tier potential was concentrate and inject midi-chlorians, I think people woulda done that
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:23 PM
came up with a few more things:
the axiom disruptor https://axiom-verge.fandom.com/wiki/Axiom_Disruptor
digistruct tech from borderlands
standing stones from skyrim
that one glove from quantum conundrum
basically any artifact from risk of rain 1 or 2
i mean it probably takes training too, but jedi are very much an obscure thing for star wars
Awake06-Mar-21 06:24 PM
Midicorians dont cause the force from what I remember. They just happen to grow in force sensitive individuals
Midichlorians*
Malaki06-Mar-21 06:24 PM
Better off huffing Psyren air, which is guaranteed to give u psychic powers
and that's great and all
but if you could just inject midichlorians and be done with it, people would have done that
so there has to be some reason that some people have more midichlorians, whether they cause the Force or are a side effect.
Awake06-Mar-21 06:31 PM
Yeah, otherwise they could mass produce force sensitive
Malaki06-Mar-21 06:32 PM
Also wat if 1 midichlorian ends up costing 100FP
Awake06-Mar-21 06:32 PM
Yeah
Malaki
Also wat if 1 midichlorian ends up costing 100FP
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:32 PM
bad argument, since we can just ask
also: they did mass produce force sensitives before, in now non-canon things admittedly but cloning force sensitives is a thing that works perfectly well
force unleashed
Awake06-Mar-21 06:33 PM
Cloning
Not making non-force sensitives sensitive
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:34 PM
also, imperial guards having force powers
the cloning thing feels like splitting hairs given they werent exactly together in the head, and personality is the only criteria i can think of that would apply to that if its not just midichlorians(edited)
it could just be a case of people are stupid or 'secretly the appendix gives you superpowers but you thought it was useless' or something, given how shrouded in mysticism jedi and sith are(edited)
randomhuman4406-Mar-21 06:36 PM
can we specify 'the kind of midichlorians that make you force sensitive when injected'?
Awake06-Mar-21 06:36 PM
Yeah. I dont think they know what gives force powers
Maybe? Idk
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:36 PM
as far as we know, midichlorians are the thing that facilitates it
Awake06-Mar-21 06:36 PM
Force powers also need the Force to be there though from what I remember
Malaki06-Mar-21 06:37 PM
Oh yeah
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:37 PM
Midi-chlorian was the scientific name[2] for a species of sentient and microscopic organisms that inhabited the cells of every life form.[1]
In addition to their connection with the Force, midi-chlorians lived in a symbiotic relationship with their organic hostsβa bond that was especially strong with Force-sensitive beings, who possessed a high quantity of midi-chlorians in their cells. This mutually advantageous relationship allowed the midi-chlorians to communicate the will of the Force to their Force-sensitive symbionts, who were capable of utilizing the powers of the Force through the midi-chlorians.[1]
Awake06-Mar-21 06:37 PM
Ah I see
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:38 PM
from what it sounds like they just kinda pick and choose who gets powers
Awake06-Mar-21 06:38 PM
We'd still need to bring the Force into existence though
Which might be Expensive
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:38 PM
might need to, yea
we'd have to ask
Malaki06-Mar-21 06:38 PM
Aight so again Psyren air get's u guaranteed psychic powers
Awake06-Mar-21 06:39 PM
And also leave the door open for other force sensitives to start cropping up in the future
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:39 PM
point
lets see if psyren air has drawbacks
...and i cant find shit on psyren air
gg
Malaki06-Mar-21 06:39 PM
Psyren is a manga
Awake06-Mar-21 06:40 PM
I do have a question in case it was answered earlier: do things with drawbacks lower the cost?
Malaki06-Mar-21 06:40 PM
The air causes a mutation in the brain that gives u psychic powers a day after exposure
Minor symptoms of running a high fever for a little while and a nose bleed, but then you got psychic powers(edited)
Still gotta train said powers but they aint bad
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 06:45 PM
If you buy something that requires or interacts with The Force, it will be brought into existence for no cost.
Malaki06-Mar-21 06:45 PM
Well...mutation isnt the right word but it causes a change in the brain thus giving you psychic powers
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:46 PM
i guess energy is free?
Awake06-Mar-21 06:46 PM
Okay that's good to know about the cost
Fusion-DriveBOT06-Mar-21 06:47 PM
Also, the body of a non-Force sensitive would reject midichlorians, similar to giving someone the wrong blood type in an injection.
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:47 PM
ah, hell
Awake06-Mar-21 06:47 PM
Right
Doesnt mean we cant technically make a force sensitive right?
Limina Idling | Hours06-Mar-21 06:47 PM
theres probably methods to get around that, but we'd probably want an ethically unfucked bonesaw for that

There's a lot of variation in 'book on magic from D&D'. You could get an empty spellbook for 1.0FM, then add spells for spell level*10.0FM. Cantrips would cost 5FM each. There's also no guarantee the user would know how to use the spells.
