No, don't antagonise other capes if you can help it. Uber's power is invaluable in this situation, despite how he is as a person.

We want them to at least not be against us.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 10:47 AM

Yeah, still doesnt mean i gotta like the SoBs

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:47 AM

randomhuman44 24-Feb-21 10:47 AM

Only if he actually uses it to help. Given his general personality he'd probably have to be strongarmed into joining the protectorate to actually help

Unready_Access | Emma | Construct BOT 24-Feb-21 10:48 AM

Better to risk that than to alienate those two.

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:48 AM

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:48 AM

Unready_Access | Emma | Construct BOT 24-Feb-21 10:49 AM

Ideally, we'd all be able to band together, and maybe you'd be able to exchange something for some of Leet's old tech.

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:49 AM

...Would video game items have higher meaningfulness?

Malaki 24-Feb-21 10:49 AM

Some possibly

randomhuman44 24-Feb-21 10:49 AM

If they're iconic ones yeah probably

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:49 AM

Fuck yea.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 10:50 AM

They'd have to be popular in Bet i'm guessing

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:50 AM

Point.

randomhuman44 24-Feb-21 10:50 AM

Good thing Leet tech is both advanced tinkertech and video game items right? (edited)

Malaki 24-Feb-21 10:50 AM

Yup

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:50 AM

Exactly.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 10:51 AM

Their snitch might be the most ironically easy to put charges in, it's kinda iconic for them

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:52 AM

Huh. I wonder how 'personal iconic-ness' compares to 'general iconic-ness'.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 10:52 AM

Prolly more powerful

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:52 AM

Potentially.

Unready_Access | Emma | Construct BOT 24-Feb-21 10:52 AM

So, heirlooms would also tend towards being rarer, I suppose.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 10:53 AM

It's like if you charged the Armscycle...you could just check with whoever has really iconic gear and compare to a bible

Unready_Access | Emma | Construct BOT 24-Feb-21 10:53 AM

Or generic priest's vestments to a hero's costume.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 10:53 AM

Right right

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:54 AM

I can do that.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 10:54 AM

Man the PR team is gunna be happy that there is a power that encourages memorable and iconic costume design (edited)

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:54 AM

I'm going to be recording the rarities of a whole fuck ton of stuff tomorrow anyway, so that'll be fun.

randomhuman44 24-Feb-21 10:55 AM

PRT power testers more thorough than random Discord peeps How surprising

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:55 AM

At least it'll be monotonous enough that I'll be able to do something else in the meantime.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 10:55 AM

Ahhh sarcasm how i missed your taste

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:56 AM

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 10:57 AM

Unready_Access | Emma | Construct BOT 24-Feb-21 11:01 AM

One of the PRT employees apparently brought in their chickens since they'd grown huge, but after being deemed safe, they were kept on base.

So, there's an excess of egg-related foods.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 11:01 AM

...giant eggs?

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 11:01 AM

Like ostrich eggs. It's crazy.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 11:02 AM

Oh nice

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 11:02 AM

Someone has a recipe for banana pancakes that are literally just bananas mixed with eggs.

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 11:03 AM

They're actually pretty good. Makes me wish I had some ice cream to go with them.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 11:03 AM

Maybe you can bring over some apple cider to share with office one day

randomhuman44 24-Feb-21 11:04 AM

You know, some chickens hunt down and eat rats

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 11:04 AM

Malaki 24-Feb-21 11:04 AM

The Rous have natural predators already

Cats

randomhuman44 24-Feb-21 11:04 AM

Well, mice mostly because they're smaller, but chickens aren't always friendly birds

Malaki 24-Feb-21 11:05 AM

Chickens are terrifying when u remember they are omnivores

Unready_Access | Emma | Construct BOT 24-Feb-21 11:05 AM

I'm very glad that none of you have gone for the obvious joke that comes with giant chickens.

randomhuman44 24-Feb-21 11:05 AM

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 11:05 AM

Chickens are like bees. Very useful and they make good food, but also fucking terrifying.

randomhuman44 24-Feb-21 11:08 AM

They've seen bigger than the giant asian chickens malaki, someone just brought ostrich sized chickens into the base

Totally unlikely

Shawn is a common name

Unready_Access | Emma | Construct BOT 24-Feb-21 11:24 AM

Brown is a common hair color, and Shawn isn't exactly an uncommon name.

randomhuman44 24-Feb-21 11:29 AM

Asking Dauntless for blood type is kinda weird tho, so I'm not sure how much that knowledge helps

It does help me with my tinfoiling

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 11:30 AM

The path between here and the Rig is very well tended-to.

I guess there's just been a lot of traffic between those places.

Unready_Access | Emma | Construct BOT 24-Feb-21 11:31 AM

I believe the PRT have been securing the path, so they can't get split in half at an inappropriate moment.

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 11:32 AM

Well, there's probably not a safer place outdoors in the city than here.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 11:32 AM

Im pretty sure the bridge they use can connect to anypoint, this is for PR's sake

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 11:32 AM

...Does this even count as outdoors?

Malaki 24-Feb-21 11:32 AM

No doors on the dome so yes

Technically you're in a dome

Out-InDoors instead of In-Indoors

Unless u make tiger into general felines

randomhuman44 24-Feb-21 11:37 AM

cat-inclusive I thought it was just tigers? I have no idea why that's relevant here though Except for the cats eating people or something if it includes them

Limina Idling | Hours 24-Feb-21 11:37 AM

presumably a few Dire Housecats have been seen (edited)

Malaki 24-Feb-21 11:38 AM

Or more likely dire feralcats

Limina Idling | Hours 24-Feb-21 11:38 AM

Twelve animals represent the Chinese zodiac signs (or sheng xiao, translating to "born + resemblance"); in order, they're the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat (or Sheep), Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 11:38 AM

And Rachel already has big ass dogs

Unready_Access | Emma | Construct BOT 24-Feb-21 11:38 AM

Malaki 24-Feb-21 11:42 AM

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 11:42 AM

Wildbow's name is a reference to a bad translation of 'wild boar' in some JRPG. Also, his pfp is a boar.

Malaki 24-Feb-21 11:42 AM

Yeah NH has wild boars

Limina Idling | Hours 24-Feb-21 11:42 AM

If something disrupted the power during the concept-gaining window, that would prevent the concept from being gained.

I actually visited them back when I first signed on at the PRT HQ. They gave me the okay, but that might've been because they didn't want to have to waste resources on a new costume right then and there.

you could be a positive influence, too, maybe

it would def be something if she was another insert, tho

Limina Idling | Hours 24-Feb-21 05:56 PM

defiant, im sure youre wondering what the fuck a titan is if you're fresh from gold morning - basically, scion micromanages all powers so all the mechanical bits of em dont break physics in big ways, and powers try to hijack the shard network when there isnt someone operating them. which results in them subsuming their host and basically becoming mini endbringers

ChillyPepperPopper | Anne | Concept BOT 24-Feb-21 05:57 PM

Actually yeah, that first.

So capes can become endbringers. That was a theory surrounding Echidna for some time, but it was... deconfirmed.

Limina Idling | Hours 24-Feb-21 05:58 PM

they're a lot weaker than actual endbringers, but when capes like glaistig uaine and fucking contessa get involved, that kinda stops mattering
