Sterlyn 10-Jan-21 04:20 PM

wait, why does it say remove?

Don't you want to add it?

Dubiously Motivated Pika 10-Jan-21 04:20 PM

I checked on another server, and I think the command I sent was for something else

Can you give the bot the ability to manage messages in this channel via normal discord stuff?

Why don't you try again first?

You can go into a warehouse and search for a clean metal surface

??? BOT 10-Jan-21 04:42 PM

okay

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 04:43 PM

i really advise against breaking and entering

if you were experimented on and look frightening you may get shot

Lucky_Plucky21 10-Jan-21 04:43 PM

It isn’t breaking and entering if nobody knows (edited)

??? BOT 10-Jan-21 04:43 PM

There's a whole lot of abandoned warehouses, I can try one of those?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 04:43 PM

that is the dumbest principle ever

Lucky_Plucky21 10-Jan-21 04:43 PM

Yep

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 04:43 PM

if theyre abandoned there may be homeless people in it

just use the side of a ship

those should be shiny and reflective

Lucky_Plucky21 10-Jan-21 04:43 PM

Nope

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 04:43 PM

if for nothing else due to the water

Malaki 10-Jan-21 04:44 PM

Shipwrecks nearby but we're not sure if it is The Graveyard

Lucky_Plucky21 10-Jan-21 04:45 PM

Let’s call him Albert (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 04:45 PM

a bus stop, then, maybe? one of those would provide both a map and a light, maybe a reflective surface

??? BOT 10-Jan-21 04:45 PM

We need to get a face mask and glasses at least....

Lucky_Plucky21 10-Jan-21 04:47 PM

Possible in difficult to see places

CodeRR 10-Jan-21 04:47 PM

not much we can do for the skin

CodeRR We need to get a face mask and glasses at least....

Hours, Minutes, Seconds honestly i dont think the confident thing will be entirely necessary

CodeRR 10-Jan-21 04:53 PM

It's just in case, less likely to be messed with from my experince.

Lucky_Plucky21 10-Jan-21 04:54 PM

Probably better if inside the shadows

That way nobody will see you and sick someone on you

how about we dont start off with them hostile to us huh?

CodeRR 10-Jan-21 04:56 PM

given the achievement, doubt it

it might be something like The Gamer?

or it might be achievement oriented

I think so

Maybe some technopathy

Or virtual conductor powers

Things like that

no evidence of technopathy thus far, given they had to work with the phone

Yep

achievement-worthy

probably something for surviving their first fight, encountering gangs and the prt, other notable figures like armsmaster and such

Picking a side

beating a set number of enemies?

CodeRR 10-Jan-21 05:21 PM

It's a start at least, maybe it's biological based? Though it's a weak thread to follow as my only evidence is how their body is a blank slate and the achievement name.

not quite blank slate

if he has mercenaries, or at least welltrained ones, it stands to reason he has a lot of illegitimate contacts, yeah?

Redacted would be the world

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:12 PM

It feels like trying to read an SCP file.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:12 PM

welcome to this hellworld

nothing quite on the level of any SCPs but plenty of stuff on par as far as weirdness goes, if not danger

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:13 PM

SCP isn't that far off tbh

Miss Militia BOT 10-Jan-21 08:13 PM

"Okay, that's good to know. I'll keep the information safe."

"If that's all?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:13 PM

hm

ask her to keep an eye on dauntless, in a few weeks? she'll know when, therell be a big signal (edited)

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:14 PM

that's all i got

Forge BOT 10-Jan-21 08:14 PM

(...I'll let that one slide. Barely.)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:15 PM

oh thank god that got through

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:15 PM

"In a few weeks, there'll be a big signal? And you should look out for Dauntless then?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:15 PM

doesnt need to be her

just anyone

bad phrasing on my end sorry

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:16 PM

"Well, not necessarily you, but you know what I mean. Sorry it's so vague, my power has restrictions on what it can tell me."

Miss Militia BOT 10-Jan-21 08:16 PM

"Right. I'll bear that in mind, thanks."

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:17 PM

"Actually, is there a lab or something I can use? One of my powers is a, uh, 'tinker' one."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:17 PM

smart move, you can make healing gun

maybe mention healing gun

Miss Militia BOT 10-Jan-21 08:17 PM

"I'm afraid I can't arrange that on such short notice, but I can see what we can do tomorrow."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:18 PM

theyll be eager to get benefits from that, even if they have to review it

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:18 PM

"Right. I was just having ideas, and my power suggested a healing gun."

Miss Militia BOT 10-Jan-21 08:20 PM

"A healing gun? Really?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:20 PM

healers are rare so theyre gonna be glad to have you onboard

and probably liable to add extra protection detail

mention the earlier guys as people you dont want with you

if they do opt to do protection detail due to healing tech rarity

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:22 PM

"i mean it isn't the only thing but it's the most useful thing I can think of at the moment"

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:22 PM

"Yeah. I can make guns with programmable blasts, and one of those is healing. Um, by the way, some of the soldiers that were waiting with me might've been Coil plants. I memorised their ID numbers, is it okay if I don't spend time around them? I wrote a list."

Miss Militia BOT 10-Jan-21 08:22 PM

"I can look out for that."

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:23 PM

"Thanks. I think that's it for now."

Miss Militia BOT 10-Jan-21 08:23 PM

"It was nice to meet you, Austin. I'll see you later."

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:23 PM

True

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:24 PM

So... What now?

Lucky_Plucky21 10-Jan-21 08:24 PM

Build the gun

And rest (edited)

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:24 PM

Unless there's iron and precision tools in here, I'm not sure I can manage that just yet.

Lucky_Plucky21 10-Jan-21 08:25 PM

Well rest it is

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:25 PM

Maybe I could test my powers? I know there's power testing here or whatever, but I want to get an idea of what I can do first.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:26 PM

sure!

Lucky_Plucky21 10-Jan-21 08:26 PM

Go ahead

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:26 PM

apparently your coil-gained power isnt a knowledge dump, so it may be a skill dump, learning dump, physical change like reinforcement from armor, something else generally

idk

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:27 PM

I guess I'll try to see what I can do. I've had a strange feeling since the Coil one, I'll try that first.

Oh, I have a minimap!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:28 PM

oh hell yeah

does it flag friendlies and enemies?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:29 PM

It shows the current floor of the Protectorate building, with a bunch of faces on it.

I can see Miss Militia's face on it - her bandanna is pretty distinctive.

It looks like I can track people.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:30 PM

Neat!

Add on to that thinker power list

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:30 PM

Oh, I can also set waypoints too. That's nice.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:30 PM

GPS and Navigation, neat

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:30 PM

the other guys you were with tracked?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:31 PM

It just tracks everyone in the area, I think. I can't tell all the soldier's helmets apart, though.

Uh, Forge? Do you have a list of all my powers or something?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:32 PM

local limited omniscience

fun!

Forge BOT 10-Jan-21 08:33 PM

You currently have [7] abilities installed.

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:33 PM

Um.

Any more details?

Forge BOT 10-Jan-21 08:33 PM

No.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:33 PM

mean

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:33 PM

Ah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:33 PM

well, the chat probably counts as one

id imagine your appearance probably counts as one or more

thats at least 4 we know of

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:33 PM

53's usually have some kind of physical ability attached to their powers

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:34 PM

Yeah, I got the chat from meeting Zion.

Scion.

Whichever.

CADs from Miss Militia.

Minimap from Coil.

Dubiously Motivated Pika 10-Jan-21 08:34 PM

(THINKER power from the THINKER god dammit)

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:34 PM

mostly thematic,

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:34 PM

that's interesting

must be on purpose (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:35 PM

can we view currently unlocked achievements?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:36 PM

Is there a Status Screen?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:36 PM

There's not a status screen as far as I can tell?

yes please

well then.

CodeRR 10-Jan-21 08:40 PM

So...they know

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:40 PM

Now we can talk about Cauldron? (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:40 PM

it looks like before you got hit by laser-strike amnesia, you did some very, very stupid things

Forge BOT 10-Jan-21 08:41 PM

Milestone ERROR:

Milestone 5:

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:41 PM

Oh

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:41 PM

no offense but you dont fuck with cauldron for damn good reason and The Slug is the reason

CodeRR 10-Jan-21 08:41 PM

Sounds like them.....wait huh

Forge BOT 10-Jan-21 08:41 PM

Milestone 6:

Milestone 7:

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:42 PM

Uh

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:42 PM

So the Slug is why you don't have your memories

Calderon is why you're here

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:42 PM

I have several questions.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:42 PM

okay, ask, and we'll try to answer with what we think wont hurt you

either that or itll be censored as per The Slug

i assume thats whats doing it

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:43 PM

Was that censorship or just some sort of error?

Forge BOT 10-Jan-21 08:43 PM

Milestone [The Slug] was an error message.

CodeRR 10-Jan-21 08:43 PM

Something... probably when they mind wipped you

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:44 PM

Yeah, that makes sense.

The Cauldron logo matches the one on my hand.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:44 PM

this also implies that

you had the forge before anything (edited)

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:44 PM

Yeah, I was wondering about that too.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:44 PM

seeing as you're nabbed, then given dead entity juice

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:44 PM

I got powers, but I already had powers?

So wait, if I have 7 Forge powers, what's my Eden power?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:45 PM

so whatever power being a hot Monsterboy gave is still up in the air

CodeRR 10-Jan-21 08:46 PM

Hm... maybe it got changed because of the parahuman power and that's why it's like this now?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:46 PM

any instinct that feels different from the forge?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:46 PM

I think so? I feel strong and very awake, even though it's the middle of the night.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:46 PM

oh, youre a noctis cape

never need to sleep again

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:47 PM

Like MM!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:47 PM

if you do, you'll review your memories perfectly, or you should at any rate

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:47 PM

I got a bruise earlier and it's gone now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:47 PM

assumedly

oh youre also a brute

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:47 PM

Ah Regen

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:47 PM

regen

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:47 PM

I don't have perfect memory or anything.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:47 PM

you're meant to be a brute

that's what keeping sleep away

likely

you're healing the sleep away

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:47 PM

...'Brute'? I'd like to think I have some brains too.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:48 PM

that's just the name of the classifcation

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:48 PM

Ah, right.

Like Thinker and Tinker?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:48 PM

Mover, Shaker, Brute and Breaker. Master, Tinker, Blaster and Thinker, Striker, Changer, Trump and Stranger.

That's all of them

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:48 PM

Ahhh.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:48 PM

they exist mostly as a short hand for threat response but it's bled into the culture at large

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:49 PM

So THAT'S why someone called me a Trump earlier.

I was kinda offended, but I left it.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:49 PM

yeah trump as in your power trumps others

as the intent behind that classification is to warn that the power effects powers

because the first example was like....some power supressor?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:50 PM

eidolon, actually

his power is more powers

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:50 PM

Okay, that makes sense.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:50 PM

i think

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:51 PM

I know the first categorized brutes were villains, hence the aggressive naming

because

ya no

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:52 PM

I can probably google these now that I know about them. There's a PC in here.

Oh, that sums it up.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:53 PM

theres a bunch of subdetails, including what causes what

generally speaking your powers are gonna be something of an ironic echo of what happened to turn you into a parahuman

trauma-fueled superpowers and all that

Forge BOT 10-Jan-21 08:54 PM

(I'll let it slip. It could be pieced together, maybe.)

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:55 PM

Powers are fueled by trauma?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:55 PM

not literally, but youll probably be hearing about it soon assuming you join up with the prt

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:55 PM

Right.

Anyway, we got sidetracked.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:56 PM

yeah

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:56 PM

I'll try to figure out my other powers, I guess.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:56 PM

check your agility?

if you've got brute powers you might also have a bit of mover

they tend to go hand in hand

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:57 PM

I can try?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:57 PM

can you fly?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:57 PM

Not as far as I can tell.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:57 PM

I was more thinking

like mildly enhanced parkor?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:58 PM

I had a strange feeling, but it felt too empty to do anything.

It hasn't filled up at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:58 PM

your power might be solar-charged?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:58 PM

Feed mana into it?

if you can

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:58 PM

Could be. I can't really do anything with mana without a CAD.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:59 PM

soon...

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:59 PM

my fingers itch

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:59 PM

Even then, I wouldn't be able to specifically target my power like that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:59 PM

hm

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:59 PM

CAD based Mana Battery?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:59 PM

I've had it since before I got the CADs, anyway.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 08:59 PM

is that possible?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 08:59 PM

can you look up parahuman biology?

im not sure we can talk about it yet

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 08:59 PM

Sure, I'll google it.

Or, uh, Bing it? This really is a darker timeline.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:00 PM

you have no idea

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:00 PM

yeah tech valley is mostly trying to figure out tinker tech right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:00 PM

yep, its slowing down the tech tree on earth bet so much

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:01 PM

Yeah, apparently.

I thought my phone looked pretty shit, but I guess that's just this world.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:01 PM

yep

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:01 PM

I can jump pretty far, but I think that's just my strength.

To clarify, it's maybe Captain America tier strength, not Superman strength.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:02 PM

well thats good news

captain america is a badass

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:02 PM

You haven't eaten in

like

...actually I'm not sure

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:05 PM

Actually yeah.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:06 PM

Maybe ask for a meal

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:06 PM

I feel like I could eat, but I don't think I need to yet.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:06 PM

based on your teeth you might be an obligate carnivore

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:06 PM

There's food in the fridge, which is nice. I'll see what I can eat.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:07 PM

smell should tell you what seems appetizing here

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:07 PM

I wonder if I was always this tall? I'm taller than the fridge, and it feels weird.

I'm maybe 6'8 or something?

Everything still smells normal to me.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:08 PM

Most people aren't that tall

and if it feels off its likely new

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:08 PM

Raw meat is still pretty unappetizing. Yeah, good point.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:09 PM

Its good to know you don't have any odd diet restrictions as far as we can tell

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:10 PM

Yeah, thank god.

I'm not particularly hungry, but I'll have an apple anyway.

Oh, I also have some extra knowledge. I didn't notice it because it didn't suddenly hit me, but it's there.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:12 PM

tell me about it?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:12 PM

It's sort of... Manipulating the laws of physics in relation to items? Kind of?

Making things do what I want because I made them do it.

I'm not describing it well.

You know fiat in Jumpchain? Items that do stuff just because they do? It's kinda like that.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:14 PM

Metaphysics Manipulation?

or

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:14 PM

It's a bunch of set recipes.

Think of it like making items that run on video game logic, kinda.

Tools that absorb damage into an internal well and shatter when the well reaches a limit, for instance.

Yeah, the video game logic thing sums it up well.

I think the biggest thing in there is that I can make infinite water.

I can turn a pool of water into an infinite source of water.

There's also some stuff related to enchanting in there.

Does fuckall with anything more complicated than a sword, but I have it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:17 PM

infinite source of water makes me think terraria or minecraft

enchanting makes me think minecraft

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:18 PM

Yeah, this one is probably Minecraft.

Actually yeah, the tools too. Durability bars.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:18 PM

you have minecraft crafting?

because if so, i wonder if iron blocks have more matter to them than iron bars (edited)

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:19 PM

I can't just use crafting recipes or anything, it's more like Minecraft crafting but adapted to work more realistically.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:19 PM

ah, damn

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:19 PM

I don't have potions or anything, though.

Can't make a nether portal.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:19 PM

well thats probably useful in some context potions are nether exclusive so that makes sense

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:19 PM

Yeah.

So CADs are from an anime, and I have Minecraft crafting.

My strength is from my Eden power, and I have a generic video game minimap.

I also have an empty-feeling power, which could be anything.

And, of course, you guys.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:21 PM

maybe the empty power is a pocket dimension?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:21 PM

Maybe? I can try it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:21 PM

like an inventory system

kinda feels like you have a theme thus far after all

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:22 PM

Huh. On one hand, my empty power wasn't an inventory. On the other hand, I do have an inventory.

Nice guess.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:22 PM

my quest for omniscence goes smoothly

lol

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:23 PM

So that leaves one more?

just one more i guess

this is a toughy

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:26 PM

try throwing or shooting things accurately?

toss apple core into trash can

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:28 PM

I got it in, barely. I don't feel especially talented at it.

A lot of my powers so far have been video game related in some way. Maybe this is too?

Well, the anime one is an outlier.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:29 PM

was checking for hitscan

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:29 PM

it could be Gamer skills

idk

hmm

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:29 PM

I could find a flash game or something?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:30 PM

Yeah!

'Super Flash Capes' looks interesting.

That's cool.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:32 PM

neat

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:33 PM

I picked Random Cape and went into a boss battle.

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:38 PM

Oh, so he'd survive. Cool.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:38 PM

honestly i chock that up to luck

that and leviathan is a dick

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:39 PM

I guess I'll keep it to myself, then? Unless he does actually look like he's dying.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:39 PM

the fact you exist here has already altered what knowledge we have of the setting

yes

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:39 PM

yeah...

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:39 PM

Butterfly effect. Fuck.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:39 PM

fucking butterfly effect

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:39 PM

https://tenor.com/view/lol-napoleon-dynamite-gif-3473543

Butterfly

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:40 PM

Is there anything else to test? I might do some research and take a nap if nothing else.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:40 PM

let me read through what all youve got up

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:41 PM

forge any hints or you gonna be mean

Forge BOT 10-Jan-21 09:41 PM

No information on the installed powers can be disclosed.

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:41 PM

Damn.

I guess there's also the question of how to fill my empty power.

Maybe it's an xp gague?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:42 PM

so you have: crafting minimap CAD communication Inventory xp? presumably for enchanting?

maybe the last power is like

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:42 PM

using that energy?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:42 PM

a health bar or something

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:42 PM

oh or that

but testing that by yourself acts way more like self harm then anything

so maybe wait on that

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:43 PM

I could probably prick my finger on a needle or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:43 PM

that works

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:44 PM

Welp. On one hand, neither Empty nor Unknown did anything. On the other hand, Inventory can give me an indication of my current health. It's like a general bodily scan sort of thing.

I regenerated the damage, but now I don't feel as full.

Maybe the Eden power needs mass to regenerate me?

So I guess I should look for more video game mechanics, then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:46 PM

minecraft requires food to power regen

so you have steve body then

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:47 PM

Maybe? This is from the Eden power, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:47 PM

oh

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:47 PM

Unless it took inspiration from the Minecraft power?

It could be something like that.

So, what other video game mechanics are there?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:48 PM

powers can be dumb and like to cheat

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:48 PM

Including meta ones, like game chats.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:49 PM

lets think MMO powers since that may be the gimmick

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:49 PM

A Shop?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:49 PM

a shop

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:49 PM

Nothing like that, afaik.

The Empty power is very isolated from anything else. I can't put anything I have into it - I don't think I even have anything compatible with it at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:50 PM

try saving?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:51 PM

Nap to save?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:51 PM

Yeah, I'll try sleeping. I can talk in the morning.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:51 PM

gn

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:51 PM

Gn!

Okay, I'm back. I hope I wasn't gone too long?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:52 PM

it wasn't any time at all for us

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:52 PM

I think my Eden power reacted to the bed somehow, but nothing else did.

Huh, really?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:52 PM

how did it react?

time is fucky in the chat, this is known

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:52 PM

Like weird a tie to the bed, kind of.

It feels tangentially similar to a waypoint, actually.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:53 PM

leave the room and try to teleport back?

or maybe it's a respawn

but i don't wanna try that

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:54 PM

I can't teleport. I don't wanna test respawning, but if the Eden power was inspired by Minecraft, that could be it.

Wait.

- Tall - Purple eyes - Wide mouth

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:54 PM

OMG

ENDERBOY

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:55 PM

God.

I really am a Minecraft boy.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:55 PM

fuck how do endermen work again?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:55 PM

Also, interesting to note, but I woke up at exactly 6.

I'm fine with water and I can't teleport or anything.

If I am an enderboy, I think it's just cosmetic.

It could be something else - I do have grey skin, not black.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 09:57 PM

mmmm

can you move chunks?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 09:59 PM

Not in particular? I mean, I can pick stuff up, but so can the vast majority of people.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 09:59 PM

hm

i recall endermen only being able to teleport when not in direct line of sight

you are in a government building, i wouldnt be shocked if theres cameras or something

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:00 PM

I mean, MM confirmed there's no cameras in here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:00 PM

oh

yah im dumb

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:00 PM

Yeah, it was a while ago and pretty offhand.

I don't think I have any super ender powers, sadly.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:01 PM

dang

im out of ideas

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:01 PM

Could be inspiration for a cool superhero name, potentially.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:01 PM

Tall Boy Slim :v

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:02 PM

Slim Shady

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:02 PM

does minecraft exist in earth bet

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:02 PM

Nope, not at all.

Also, I've done a little research, just to catch myself up to speed.

They have fucking image macro memes.

Unironically.

And rage comics.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:03 PM

oh noooo

it was a dark time

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:04 PM

Welp. I guess it be like that sometimes.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:04 PM

lets seeeeeee

any other gamerbody powers I can think of?

sleep isn't needed, nor food?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:05 PM

That's right.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:05 PM

savepoints aren't likely a thing

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:05 PM

Doesn't seem like it, no.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:05 PM

no, actually

you did mention you felt weirdly tied to the bed

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:06 PM

Point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:06 PM

respawn point

...lets hope you dont need to test that

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:06 PM

Yeah, agreed.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:07 PM

Yeah I'm out

i got nothing

sorry

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:07 PM

Yeah, fair. Neither do I.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:07 PM

maybe the eggheads in power testing will think of something? (edited)

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:07 PM

I guess I'll goof around on the computer until someone comes to get me?

Yeah, those guys would be the experts.

How much do I tell them about the first four/five milestones?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:08 PM

honestly your powers seem to be mostly minecraft

uh fuck-all tbh

you'll get killed if you do

or at least captured for another mind whammy

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:08 PM

The Eden one and the Crafting one are Minecraft. Actually, wasn't there some Minecraft mod thing earlier?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:08 PM

CAD yeah

i mentioned it earlier, FTB mod

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:09 PM

I swear to god, if I have super Minecraft powers...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:09 PM

minimap can be minecraft too

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:09 PM

Actually, if it was Minecraft, what would this chat be?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:09 PM

theres mods for that

this would be the minecraft chat

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:09 PM

Game chat wouldn't make sense.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:09 PM

Multiplayer?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:09 PM

multiplayer has that

yeah

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:09 PM

But you guys would be in different 'servers', right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:09 PM

...does that mean we're all gonna be dropped in on random worlds or earth bet

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:10 PM

Let's hope not, for your sake.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:10 PM

yeah i fucking hope not

this could be forums maybe?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:10 PM

minecraft doesn't really have a minimap like the one you discribed

so it's not like fully mine-craft

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:10 PM

modded minecraft does

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:10 PM

Yeah, maybe. It really is more of a 'chat' than a 'forum', though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:11 PM

theres a minimap that displays a bunch of faces and lets you make waypoints that you can teleport to

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:11 PM

So, tentative theory, Minecraft powers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:11 PM

seems like it

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:11 PM

What would the empty one be, then? Any Minecraft mods that start empty?

Well, maybe it's less 'empty' and more 'alone'.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:12 PM

like it's missing its other half?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:12 PM

hmmm... if its missing part of itself that could explain the segregation

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:12 PM

Not quite.

It's like an empty USB stick when all I have is swords or something.

Or something.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:13 PM

is it Alchemymod?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:13 PM

The power is complete by itself, I'm just alone in it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:13 PM

could be a planeswalker thing

fits with the enderman thing

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:13 PM

ITS A PARTY SYSTEM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:14 PM

OH

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:14 PM

Party system? Should I try to invite someone?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:14 PM

OH MY GOD IF SO THATS BIG

try to invite miss militia

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:14 PM

ask her first

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:14 PM

oh yeah

ask first

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:14 PM

if you can?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:14 PM

I'll try that when I see her again.

Oh, someone just knocked on the door. 6:30 exactly.

Who'd be up and at work at 6:30?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:15 PM

Armsmaster?

Or MM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:15 PM

either/or

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:15 PM

seeing as she doesn't sleep

they both do a lot of work

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:16 PM

armsy seems like a workaholic and MM is noctis cape

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:16 PM

Welp, sounds like there's no reason to assume it's, I'unno, Coil.

Opening the door.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:16 PM

waypoint

if you havent already

Armsmaster BOT 10-Jan-21 10:17 PM

"Good, you're awake. Austin, was it?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:17 PM

oh hey, its armsy

dont call him that, he likes his rep

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:17 PM

"Good morning. You'd be Armsmaster, then?"

Armsmaster BOT 10-Jan-21 10:17 PM

"I see you've done your research."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:17 PM

thinkerrr

doing some research on your own couldnt hurt later tho

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:18 PM

"Yeah, I looked around on the internet to get the gist of what's up with Earth Bet."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:19 PM

oh yeah

im dumb

Armsmaster BOT 10-Jan-21 10:19 PM

"Truth." "The Director would like to meet you, if you don't have anything else to do."

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:20 PM

The Director is fine, right? Just biased against Parahumans. I don't see any reason not to.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:20 PM

yeah

she views her job as 'holding the line' id say, which in a city like the bay. fair

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:21 PM

she also largely views parahumans as traumatized

which is accurate

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:21 PM

I mean, I don't exactly have any trauma to remember, so...

Not sure if that'll change her opinion, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:22 PM

you research nilbog?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:22 PM

Yeah, I looked up all the big names. Top heroes, villains, and threats.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:23 PM

theres a reason i ask

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:23 PM

to expand on her bias views them as defined by their trauma and unable to escape that, and that makes them inherently untrustworthy

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:23 PM

remember that her health is bad, despite a great healer being in the city?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:23 PM

Ah.

I think I'm starting to get it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:23 PM

yeah

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:23 PM

when she herself is an ironic reflection of allowing oneself to being defined by trauma

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:24 PM

Still, no reason to refuse, I guess.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:24 PM

its honestly an elegant bit of writing but I doubt that was the intent

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:24 PM

"Sure. I really don't have anything else I can do."

Armsmaster BOT 10-Jan-21 10:25 PM

"Follow me, then."

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:25 PM

He seems kinda terse. Not really a people person?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:25 PM

the place just got bombed and a giant angry rage dragon came out of it

he gets a pass

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:25 PM

Okay yeah, that's fair.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:25 PM

he always read as ND for me on top of all that

he might not understand how his tone comes across

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:26 PM

you are kind of on the money though

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:26 PM

...North Dakota?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:27 PM

neurodivergent

im saying i think he's autistic

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:28 PM

i never picked up on that, but now that you mention it i can kind of see that potentially being a thing

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:31 PM

Ah right. I don't know him well enough to know, so I can't really offer my two cents on it myself.

I think we've arrived? The plaque on the outside says 'Director Emily Piggot'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:33 PM

yep, thatd be her

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:33 PM

Cool. I guess this is it, then.

Armsmaster BOT 10-Jan-21 10:35 PM

"We're here."

Director Piggot BOT 10-Jan-21 10:35 PM

"Hello. You'd be 'Austin', then?"

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:35 PM

I know it's mean to think, but I see what you mean about her not being very healthy.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:36 PM

she's probably half-dead

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:36 PM

"Yeah, that's me. I don't know if it's my real name, but I might as well use it."

Director Piggot BOT 10-Jan-21 10:37 PM

"I see."

"How much do you know about... This world, I suppose would be the word?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:39 PM

general details pried from online research and thinker powers trying to get you to realize info

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:39 PM

"I did some research last night, since I don't really need to sleep, plus my thinker power, of course. I think I get the general idea, though only a barebones version. Superheroes fight supervillains, and giant monsters attack every three months."

Huh. Armsmaster didn't like me saying I don't sleep. Was there, like, an evil not-sleeping cape or something?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:40 PM

no, hes jealous

workaholic

of course hed like unlimited waking hours

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:40 PM

Ah.

Director Piggot BOT 10-Jan-21 10:41 PM

"I see. Well, I suppose you'd be able to guess why I called you in here, then."

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:41 PM

"You want me to join the Protectorate?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:42 PM

frankly, its the best option youve got, all things considered

Director Piggot BOT 10-Jan-21 10:42 PM

"Yes. We're understaffed, especially considering the state the city is in. Any hero that joins means more lives saved."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:42 PM

id read over terms and conditions but yeah

maybe a summarized version on your own time

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:43 PM

Yeah, I don't see a reason not to join. Well, aside from the possibility of Coil's moles, but whatever.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:43 PM

hit on the general points - what youd need to start helping people and such coil's moles would be fucked if they tried to kidnap you now, more or less

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:43 PM

So, no reason not to join.

"I'd want to read the terms and conditions first, but I think it's the best option."

They're really the only choice here anyway. The only other hero team in town is a family one.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:45 PM

yeah

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:46 PM

Even if I wanted to go independent, I wouldn't have the resources.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:46 PM

if she questions why, you can cite your lack of legal existence as one thing you need to worry about

i doubt she'll question it, but yknow

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:46 PM

or to Canada to the guild but you're here so you might as well

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:46 PM

just in case

i dont think they can walk to canada

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:47 PM

Yeah, I guess I could travel if need be? No idea how, though.

Besides, I think Protectorate members can also be Guild members at the same time.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:47 PM

setting waypoints far away and teleporting to them? ...probably doesnt work that way, but its a thought

also yeah

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:48 PM

I wish I could teleport to waypoints.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:48 PM

maybe when you get more achievements (edited)

alas, i may be jewish, but im no lawyer

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:51 PM

you may also wanna mention the whole coil thing

i bet hes got a thinker or two hidden among the staff

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 10:52 PM

she's not gonna trust it but she'll pass it up to watchdog anyway

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:53 PM

you agree with me on that bet gazzer?

i mean, we know the real answer, but

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:54 PM

"Also, I don't know if Miss Militia told you, but my thinker power suspects there may be Coil's plants among the staff."

Director Piggot BOT 10-Jan-21 10:54 PM

"She already informed myself and Armsmaster. I can assure you that Coil isn't going to kidnap you from the Protectorate HQ."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:55 PM

well, that clears the air, at least partly, i hope

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:55 PM

"Well, if everything is settled with that..."

Director Piggot BOT 10-Jan-21 10:56 PM

"Yes. Armsmaster, if you could take Austin to Room 612?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:56 PM

heres hoping this means power testing

Armsmaster BOT 10-Jan-21 10:56 PM

"That's fine. Come with me."

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:56 PM

I'd assume it was the contract thing. She sent a message while she was talking to me.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 10:56 PM

ah, point

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 10:57 PM

Welp, room 612. Here we are.

his power is simulation

Pericog, then?

Okay, right.

unconscious precog that reveals info like a pericog

well, sort of unconscious

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:04 PM

he makes a choice

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:04 PM

he controls when his power activates

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:04 PM

I'm just wondering whether it's worth it to kick his ass now or just wait for a better time.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:04 PM

kick his ass now

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:04 PM

a better time, hes a slippery snake

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:04 PM

Does he have any, like, dead-man's switches or anything?

OH MY GOD YES

THANK YOU FOR SAYING THAT

HE HAS SO MANY OF THE FUCKING THINGS ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:05 PM

Fuck.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:05 PM

it's 2 am and i want you to kick his ass anyway

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:05 PM

Well then.

I wish I could kick his ass and not kick his ass at the same time.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:05 PM

then you are

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:06 PM

i can guarantee you at least one innocent person would be killed by him triggering his dead man switches

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:06 PM

such is how these things work

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:06 PM

Fuck.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:06 PM

at least for him

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:06 PM

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:06 PM

I'll pretend I don't know he's Coil, I guess.

Thank god for anime thinking time.

It came with the inventory, but then it kinda connected with the chat.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:07 PM

oh he likely knows if you beat him up in his head or whatever

but i hope not

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:07 PM

thankfully he grabbed you before you knew so

put pressure on you, try and fuck with you, etc

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:08 PM

Right. I guess I'll slide out of anime thinking time now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:09 PM

quick thought actually

can you look around while in anime thinking time?

because if so thats busted af

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:10 PM

Nope. I'm stuck still.

Like a pause in a video game. Well, one without a freely rotating camera.

...Like hitting esc in Minecraft.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:10 PM

or moving so slowly it might as well be pause

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:11 PM

Yeah, that makes more sense.

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:16 PM

"Hah, I suppose you wouldn't. Well, take a seat, and I'll help you read through the contract."

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:17 PM

I'll turn off speech to text for now, so you don't need to slog through a job contract with me.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:17 PM

fair enough

just try to be careful, okay?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:17 PM

Right. I won't let anything slip.

It's going pretty well so far. He's tried to ask about my powers, but ended up telling him outright that I'd prefer to keep them hidden.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:19 PM

fair

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:19 PM

So now we're going over all the extra pages for all the different classifications too.

Don't think I earned any brownie points with him from that move.

I mean, I might get ratings in those classifications too later down the road, so they're good to know.

No real dealbreakers in here for me.

Well, now there really is no reason not to join.

"Thanks for the help, Mr Calvert. I don't see any reason for me not to join, so I think I'll be signing up."

Thomas BOT 10-Jan-21 11:22 PM

or armsmaster for that matter

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:38 PM

Welp.

On one hand, there's nobody on the list.

On the other hand, it's hooked up to the unknown power via the friends list.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:39 PM

oh my god

uh. is this group chat or global chat

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:39 PM

Just this group, I think.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:40 PM

ok

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:40 PM

You guys are the only ones in the chat.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:40 PM

the implications for that are kind of alarming?

that may mean you can broadcast something globally

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:40 PM

Speaking of powers, I'm going to be going to power testing.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:40 PM

oh boy

you can probably be honest there, then

trump with some tinker/thinker powers

plus some other stuff

Forge BOT 10-Jan-21 11:41 PM

Mine Together can switch between the Mine Together chat [this] and the current server's global chat.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:41 PM

what would connecting to the global chat do?

Forge BOT 10-Jan-21 11:41 PM

It would broadcast messages to all players in the server.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:41 PM

austin can you check for players

is that this unknown power

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:42 PM

because if EVERY PARAHUMAN counts as a player

oof

but you can talk to all of earth bet at once

thats good if you need to make an emergency chat

but its an option

Would I even want to leave Earth Bet?

I mean, it's a pit, but there's people here I'd need to save.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:44 PM

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:45 PM

Yeah, good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:45 PM

direct messages is also promising

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:45 PM

Yeah, I can try it in power testing.

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:45 PM

try one to MM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:46 PM

hey, maybe check server invites first?

cause like that could be related to cauldron, would be good to recall

if theres a lingering one in there

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:47 PM

Earth Omega. The Greek alphabet is totally out-of-theme, but okay.

Well, I'm here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:48 PM

earth omega is earth cauldron im sure of it

so if you wanna call the people who did this to you twinks you can go there

i do not recommend

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:48 PM

Yeah, you're probably right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:48 PM

...might be a good idea to briefly check, admittedly, but. briefly

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:49 PM

or just like @ whoever is the head

if and when you find them :v

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:49 PM

Anyway, power testing. Armsmaster is here, as well as a bunch of PRT folk in lab coats.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:49 PM

okay awesome

hey austin i found an option you wanna toggle on: Options for displaying entity names on the minimap in the "Entity Radar" settings.

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:50 PM

Oh.

Turning that one on.

Huh, it hit a switch in the Minecraft UI, and now I can see everyone's names over their heads.

I'm not getting Armsmaster's real name, though.

Probably for the best.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:51 PM

yeah

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:51 PM

So.

How much do I explain of my powers?

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:52 PM

as much that's useful

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:52 PM

hm

Gazzer 10-Jan-21 11:52 PM

keep what you can to yourself

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:52 PM

definitely wanna reveal healing guns so you can get that sweet protection detail, and actually use the healing guns (edited)

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:52 PM

But which parts do I keep to myself?

How many perks? What details?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:54 PM

hm... dont wanna reveal name thing with the minimap, but clairvoyance will be hard to ignore - global comms and interdimensional travel is also off the table, but 1-1 comms is not

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:55 PM

Sounds good.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:56 PM

are you able to make another group separate to this for comms with The Team?

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:56 PM

I guess I'll also be keeping the first five achievements secret? Or maybe even all of them. I think I can, yes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:56 PM

maybe not calling them achievements and def keeping the first five secret

cause the first five are major, major, major secrets

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:57 PM

Forge calls them Milestones. Maybe I can call them that too?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:57 PM

could do that yeah

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:58 PM

I might just keep the whole thing a secret and only tell the Director and the Protectorate about it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:58 PM

yeah fair

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:58 PM

There's the Coil one that I'd need to explain too, and I don't want him finding out about it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 10-Jan-21 11:58 PM

ooh yeah

Austin BOT 10-Jan-21 11:59 PM

Right. Everything else should be fine to tell, then.

Wait, do I tell them about the Minecraft thing?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:00 AM

the fact your powers are based on a game?

no

thats crazy talk no matter how true it is

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:00 AM

Right. Probably for the best, since nobody even knows about it.

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:01 AM

also it doesn't exist on bet

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:01 AM

Also, how honest am I about my 'thinker power'?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:01 AM

bout as honest as you were before

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:01 AM

Sounds good. I can fess up the details in private later.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:02 AM

honestly sticking to the same story as you gave miss militia will probably help

could say we cant really help with stuff we arent invested in - make it clear we are separate from you

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:03 AM

Right, keep the schizophrenia accusations at bay and that.

Welp, time to do some proper power testing.

sorry man

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:04 AM

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:04 AM

alas, you've not got our time dilation

listen it's so boring

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:04 AM

its probably a bunch of slight variations on stuff

still, programmable magic guns

i wonder if dragon could reverse engineer them...

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:05 AM

It's just me and the PRT techs now. Apparently, I tested all the stuff Armsmaster needed to be here for.

He's on my friends list now, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:05 AM

nice

youve made a buddy

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:06 AM

Yeah.

Actually, one interesting thing: I know kinda what the unknown power is.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:06 AM

oho?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:06 AM

It's some sort of teams thing.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:07 AM

Teams is a mod that allows the simple, intuitive creation of teams of players, enabling numerous QOL changes for social play. These changes include a HUD showing your friends health and hunger, item transferring over a distance, chat bubbles and pinging, advancement sharing and more.

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:07 AM

hm...

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 12:08 AM

Unknown: FTB Utilities

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:09 AM

time to compile features

Guide system - Introduces a very basic way to write game guides that can be used in game. These can be written offline in plain text and imported into your client. This will allow anyone to write guides that can be used in game as tutorials etc. Friends system - Self explanatory, it's an in game friends system that is used for various other features such as… Chunk Claiming - Players will now be able to claim chunks preventing anyone but themselves and/or their friends from building or breaking blocks in that chunk. This is limited via config options.

Backup system - Back up your worlds on a regular basis. Auto-restart timer - One of the best ways to maintain your server is regular restarts, this allows admins to automate the process. World borders. Allows admins to effectively limit the size of any worlds with a 1.8 minecraft like border. Borders can have custom position (default to 0,0) and size per-dimension,

Inventory viewer - This command will allow admins to access any player's inventory at any time online and easily add or remove items. Supports Baubles. (Personal note, this command is amazing) Warps (/setwarp [ID], /warp [ID]) - Players can teleport to any location/dimension set by server admins Config reloading with “/admin reload”

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:09 AM

um

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:09 AM

FriendsGUI where you can see misc stats of users - Total play time, deaths, first time joined, last time seen etc. Safe spawn from mobs / Spawn PVP - Hostile mobs in spawn area won’t spawn and won’t be able to attack you. SpawnPVP blocks other players from attacking you. MOTD on player login - Sends players a welcome message when they log in to the server.

Starting items - Want your players to have a set of tools or items when they first join the server, (Items are set in server config, in format “minecraft:item_id size damage”) Chat links - When someone posts a link in chat and it’s not clickable, FTBU prints “[Link]” that you can click from chat window. Json configs (Can be edited with “/admin config”) Badges - Now you can make and add custom badges to players that are playing on your server.

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:10 AM

So, mostly useless imo. On the other hand, Warps.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:10 AM

fuck warps, we have backups

that is ridiculously good news

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:11 AM

Backups? Forge, elaborate?

Can I call on them at will?

any backups made at the moment?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:13 AM

inventory viewer is also an option

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:13 AM

Yeah, it backed up when I got the perk, apparently.

I don't think I have access to that.

Some things are locked out to me. I guess I'd need admin or something to use those?

I think it's why I couldn't teleport to waypoints before.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:14 AM

...if you claimed the city, you could stop leviathan from breaking anything in it

Right. I'll tell them all about it.

actually no it wouldnt stop leviathan from breaking anything, blocks still break i think, but itd get stuck inside of stuff which is better

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:17 AM

There's no protection against other players, but there is against 'mobgriefing.'

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:17 AM

is leviathan on the playerlist

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:17 AM

levy is a mob

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:17 AM

Not that I can see.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:17 AM

haha

eat shit lizard

get suffocated in a wall

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:17 AM

WAIT

EXPLOSIONS CAN BE DISABLED

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:18 AM

YES

YES YES YES

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:18 AM

We're testing this

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:18 AM

FUCK OFF BAKUDA

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:18 AM

DO IT!

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:19 AM

...And, of course, my enthusiasm is melted away by Power Testing sucking. Ugh.

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:19 AM

ALTER THE VERY FABRIC OF REALITY

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:19 AM

austin

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:19 AM

Anyway. Looks like I may be getting approval for Chunk Claiming.

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:19 AM

they're trying every kind of explosive reaction

aren't they

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:19 AM

Yep.

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:19 AM

well

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:19 AM

hoo boy

fun

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:19 AM

breathing is a form of it

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:20 AM

It does look like it'll work on Bakuda's bombs, though.

Well, unless they're small enough.

If an explosion is too small, like a bullet firing, then it's not stopped.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:20 AM

oof

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:20 AM

Well, it could be a lot worse.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:21 AM

yeah thats true

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:21 AM

Anyway, it looks like I'll be getting approval to be claiming some chunks soon.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:21 AM

best part is this should go infinitely up and infinitely down

probably claiming most of the rig

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:21 AM

Lets see

One Chunk is a 16 by 16 square yeah?

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 12:22 AM

The effect reaches just past the furthest point of the moon's orbit and reaches the center of the Earth.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:22 AM

holy shit

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:22 AM

and a square is roughly approximate to a meter?

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 12:22 AM

One chunk is a 16mx16m square at sea level.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:22 AM

...wait, how do world borders work

is the simurgh dying right now

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 12:23 AM

There are no 'world borders'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:23 AM

hm

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:23 AM

I guess you can't fall into the void IRL.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:24 AM

the void is up

so no

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:24 AM

so that's roughly a square around 64 meters

unless my 3 am math is very wrong

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:24 AM

Yeah, 64m^2 at sea level

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:25 AM

which it very well could be

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:25 AM

Gets bigger the higher up you get.

Because, you know, the Earth isn't flat.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:25 AM

ye

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:26 AM

Empty power still isn't filling up.

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:26 AM

maybe it's enchanting points

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:26 AM

No, the exp bar is elsewhere.

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:26 AM

fuck me what is that

im gonna sleep on it

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:27 AM

I don't know, and neither do the PRT techs.

Gazzer 11-Jan-21 12:27 AM

if you figure it out before i get back, good on you (edited)

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:27 AM

Sounds good. Gn!

We're testing experience at the moment.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:28 AM

i know for a fact you can get xp from smelting stuff

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:28 AM

Experience orbs pop out when I do certain things like cooking, yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:28 AM

oh convenient

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:28 AM

So we're testing those to see their properties.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:28 AM

i wonder what they might do for other people

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:28 AM

Other people can absorb them too, interestingly.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:29 AM

oh my god that has some interesting implications

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:29 AM

It's actually a technique I use to create exp orbs from stuff, not an innate ability. I guess my power installed it as muscle memory.

...They brought in a mouse in a cage. They want to test exp from killing mobs.

I don't want to. I really don't want to.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:30 AM

that. mm

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:30 AM

It's just a poor mouse!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:31 AM

let me check if you get xp from killing passive mobs

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:31 AM

I'm pretty sure you do.

I kinda just want to refuse to do this outright.

It's an innocent mouse!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:33 AM

yeah honestly a bit fucked they just gave you a cage and said 'kill it'

youd think they could automate that shit, add a slight layer of removal

press a button and mouse dies or smth

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:34 AM

I'd be using the CAD to do it.

I made a simple damage spell.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:34 AM

unconciousness + damage?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:34 AM

Unconsciousness isn't even an option.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:34 AM

damn

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:35 AM

Even so! I don't want to kill it!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:35 AM

id cite ethical concerns over this and refuse

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:35 AM

Yeah. That's the plan.

A few of them seem relieved.

At least it's not just me.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:36 AM

yeah thats fair

typically parahumans with murder-related abilities tend to be

well

yknow

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:36 AM

Yeah.

Not much is going on, now. We're trying stuff for my empty power, but it's not filling up.

It's like a list and I'm the only thing on it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:37 AM

select yourself?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:37 AM

It's not something I can invite people onto either.

I'm already selected.

Can't unselect myself either.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:37 AM

double select?

hm

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:38 AM

Can't double select, either.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:38 AM

honestly my best advice with that is just. press all the buttons at the same time

basically

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:38 AM

There's no other buttons. It's just me.

Sigh.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:39 AM

it might be the team thing?

or connected to it

may also be a way of customizing yourself? (edited)

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:39 AM

Nah, it feels more solid than that, for lack of a better term.

It could be customising? Maybe?

Forge, is this Minecraft: Skins or something?

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 12:39 AM

No.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:40 AM

hm

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:40 AM

Any hints?

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 12:40 AM

No.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:40 AM

do you still get the customization vibe from it?

could be an implant thing

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:40 AM

Yeah, it could be customisation.

I can't create anything in there, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:40 AM

hm

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:41 AM

I need to fill it from outside sources, somehow.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:41 AM

(no kiddin lol)

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:42 AM

Yeah, it could be.

Is this a super uncommon mod, Forge?

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 12:42 AM

Searching database...

The mod would be classified as pretty well known. Not Buildcraft-well known, but perhaps on the same level as the Portal Guns mod or the Hats mod.

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:44 AM

Of course there's a hats mod.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:44 AM

it may be a shapeshifter mod

there was one like that, i think

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:44 AM

Yeah, could be.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:44 AM

requires you kill stuff, again, unfortunately

oh well

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:44 AM

What?

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 12:45 AM

Empty: Morph

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:45 AM

What?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:45 AM

morph requires you kill stuff to take the form of it

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:45 AM

...

What was that about capes who kill for their power earlier?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:46 AM

you arent a normal cape, austin

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:46 AM

...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:46 AM

your powers are fucking minecraft man

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:46 AM

Right.

I'm keeping this one a secret, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:46 AM

no tinker urges, no murder urges

hey, on the bright side, assuming 'suffocate leviathan in a wall' works, you can be the first friendly endbringer

a friendbringer if you will

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:47 AM

No matter how useful animal forms would be, I'm not killing. I... If it's an endbringer, I could make an exception, I guess? But that's it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:47 AM

theres also folks with kill orders

jack slash, the siberian, etc

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:47 AM

Would I really want to turn into them, though? Why would I want their faces?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:48 AM

i mean, it might give you their powers

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:48 AM

...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:48 AM

thats a big deal

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:48 AM

God dammit. I don't like this at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:48 AM

good

you really shouldnt be comfortable with it at all

that means youre a good person

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:49 AM

I'm not using it.

There's no way in hell I'm using it.

This is some Fairy Queen shit.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:49 AM

its an anti-endbringer power, for sure

then again, consider this: how many flies do you expect to swat in your life

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:50 AM

We don't even know if it copies powers! I'm more of a catch and release outside kind of person.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:50 AM

i found the page for it, it does

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:50 AM

How do powers even work? Will it copy that right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:51 AM

The Morph Mod is a mod created by iChun. It gives the user the ability to morph into several of the Vanilla Minecraft Mobs and use these mobs abilities. All mobs. Even players and bosses, including mobs from other mods. To access bosses you must have the configurable setting in the config file for boss morphs set to true. Note some morphs from other mods won't have the abilities unless the creator of that mod added that feature into his mod.

id explain exactly how powers work, but that shit is censored

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:51 AM

Is the boss thing set to true? Are abilities enabled?

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 12:51 AM

Yes and yes.

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:51 AM

I hate this.

good

you shouldnt like this

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:52 AM

Yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:52 AM

its honestly pretty fucked up when you start thinking about it

but it is a power in your arsenal, and if it comes down to your survival, you may have to use it

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:53 AM

Dammit.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:54 AM

you have other powers in your arsenal thankfully

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:54 AM

Yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:54 AM

like ridiculously versatile firearms

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:54 AM

Armour, enchanting...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:55 AM

...actually, can your guns heal illnesses?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:55 AM

Hammerspace to store it all in. Yeah, there's a way to remove 'potion effects' too.

I need gold ingots to make the better stuff in Psi, unfortunately.

Ah well, iron is serviceable, even if spells are horribly inefficient.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:56 AM

heres hoping you eventually get equivalent exchange

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:56 AM

Yeah. I know that one from back in Tekkit, and it's busted.

That could even launch us into a post-scarcity world.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 12:57 AM

...look up sphere if you want to know why you wanna be careful about thinking stuff like that

simurgh is scary af

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:58 AM

Sphere? I'll bing him.

...Oh.

yeah...

no uplift until ziz is dead

(Just as you bring up Sphere, I happen to be listening to Space Oddity lol)

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 12:59 AM

Well, power testing took the whole fucking day.

At least I got some info out of it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:00 AM

wait. you can teleport now yeah?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:00 AM

I do need to eat to fuel my regeneration, including muscle wear.

Yeah, I can set waypoints to teleport to later.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:00 AM

you did cover that yeah?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:00 AM

Yeah, I did.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:00 AM

oh thank christ

i was worried for a sec lol

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:01 AM

We covered everything, in excruciating detail.

Now, I get to take the Psi stuff up to the lab. Apparently they don't want to spring for a new one, so I'll be sharing it with Armsmaster.

Thankfully, Hammerspace.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:01 AM

thank god

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:02 AM

Same size as a Minecraft inventory. 9 slot hotbar, then 27 slots of storage I need to concentrate to move from there to the hotbar.

Each slot holds up to 64 of the same item.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:02 AM

hm

wonder if youll be able to make shulker boxes later

i know bundles are a thing

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:03 AM

I can do bundles, but I have no idea how to make shulker boxes.

Maybe that's a different mod? 'Minecraft: End' or something?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:03 AM

prolly

that one seems like itd be tied behind a specific achievement tbh

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:04 AM

Yeah, good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:04 AM

one i cant say and that you shouldnt worry about

Are mods tied behind specific milestones?

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 01:04 AM

No.

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:04 AM

Wait, really?

So it was a total coincidence I got a gun power from Miss Militia and a thinker power from Coil?

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 01:05 AM

Yes.

Huh.

At least power testing is over.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:07 AM

least theres that

how long does it take to teleport?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:08 AM

I need to go down the menu to do it. Thankfully, it's a menu I can stop time in, unlike my inventory.

I can't anime think while in my inventory at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:08 AM

leave a fuckton of waypoints everywhere you go

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:09 AM

I'm limited to 30 teleport-worthy waypoints.

damn

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:09 AM

Otherwise, unlimited.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:09 AM

nvm then

for a sec i thought it was combat viable

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:09 AM

I'll probably tag street names and stuff, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:09 AM

prolly a good idea

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:09 AM

Well, I can have 10 set waypoints and use the other 20 during combat or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:10 AM

true

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:10 AM

Well, I have some free time. What now?

Lab? Research? Explore?

It's 8 in the evening.

Power testing went on AGES.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:11 AM

meet with the protectorate and wards, make some friends

wait

no

first of all, you may wanna let armsmaster know your thinker power says he should probably have someone look into shadow stalkers personal life

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:12 AM

Why Armsmaster specifically?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:12 AM

hes supposed to be in charge of the wards

on top of the protectorate

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:13 AM

Point. Is this a 'keep this from Coil's moles' thing?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:13 AM

if convenient, but not a priority, coil may try to recruit her if things go bad

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:13 AM

Okay, so it's probably fine, then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:13 AM

id say be discreet

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:14 AM

Right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:14 AM

there was a girl hospitalized at winslow high a while ago

thats a related note

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:14 AM

Yeah, what shadow stalker did is really not acceptable, really really not

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:15 AM

Well shit.

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:15 AM

Maybe bing winslow high school and locker girl

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:15 AM

Yeah, I will.

Oh, that is awful.

I'm going to hurl.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:16 AM

given she was a violent vigilante before all this she probably has a case worker or something, so why the fuck wasnt that reported

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:16 AM

Yeah, she was partially responsible for that

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:16 AM

Dammit.

Yeah, I guess I'll go to the lab after all. If Armsmaster isn't on patrol, he'll apparently be in there.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:17 AM

yeah youre gonna want to show him like

a news article on the locker incident

and explain the conclusions youve picked up

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:18 AM

There's no names on it, but I can try to cast suspicion on Shadow Stalker.

Actually, since she's probationary, I could get access to info on her myself.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:18 AM

if nothing else, youll almost definitely get principle blackwell and her caseworker fired, which... well good

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:20 AM

The only reason the perpetrators are not caught is because her shadow stalkers caseworker blockt the investigation.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:20 AM

winslow is a ward school, you know that now

its a ward school in the same way arcadia is

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:20 AM

I guess I'll work on catch and release, then.

i just realized something

if you got minecraft powers, it couldve been way worse instead

it couldve been like

fucking darkest dungeon or something

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:26 AM

Yeah, that's a good point.

Or Bloodbourne or FNAF or something.

Slender: The Eight Pages would suck majorly.

would a robot count?

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 01:28 AM

A robot would count as long as it isn't remotely controlled.

It would need some level of autonomy, however.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:28 AM

damn

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:28 AM

Damn. We were nearly up to something acceptable.

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:28 AM

Is a roomba smart enough to count ?

Forge BOT 11-Jan-21 01:29 AM

No.

Robots have a higher threshold than other beings.

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:29 AM

I can make iron golems

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:29 AM

austin, youe genius

oh snow golems

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:30 AM

And snow golems too.

Hey, took the words out of my mouth.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:30 AM

...wither

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:30 AM

How high is three blocks in real life?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:30 AM

One block is one metre.

And I don't know how to make a wither. Yet.

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:30 AM

So three meter talk iron guardians, nice

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:30 AM

nether update

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:31 AM

Yeah, 'nether update' is probably what I'm waiting for.

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:31 AM

And the snow golems shoot snowballs hard enough to injure people with them

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:32 AM

INFINITE SNOW

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:32 AM

...I'm going to have to do more power testing for this, aren't I?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:32 AM

yes

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:32 AM

Wait, I could just say they're tinkertech.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:32 AM

i mean

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:32 AM

Testing for that is put on the tinker's head.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:32 AM

hm

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:33 AM

Definitely yes, i am curious if the golems are smart enough to vary the strength of their hits

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:33 AM

theyd technically count as master minions in the case of the snow golem i think

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:33 AM

I mean, I'm not using power stuff to make them, just technique.

So more like robots.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:33 AM

tinker/master

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:34 AM

Can you teach the technique to others ? (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:34 AM

youre throwing a pumpkin in there

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:34 AM

I can try to teach stuff to people? Maybe Armsmaster is still up. It's 11PM at the moment.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:34 AM

hes probably still up

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:35 AM

Off to the lab it is.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:35 AM

maybe wait until tomorrow

at a sane time

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:35 AM

Try it with miss militia, she is definitely awake

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:35 AM

Yeah, good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:35 AM

ooh, miss militia is a good idea

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:35 AM

I'll try and track her down.

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:35 AM

You should also tell her about the shadow stalker stuff

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:36 AM

Yeah, I was thinking of doing so.

Maybe she could help me investigate too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:36 AM

ye, that works

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:36 AM

I think you can turn text to speech on again

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:36 AM

Wait, I can just check the minimap to see where she is. Oh, good point.

Okay, she's on base right now. Cool.

I'll see if she isn't busy.

*Knock knock*

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 01:37 AM

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 01:39 AM

"Not at all - I'm just doing some paperwork. I can put it off if need be."

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:40 AM

I would say SS stuff is more important

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:40 AM

So, what do I start with? Teaching her stuff or telling her about SS?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:41 AM

SS

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:41 AM

SS- Stuff

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:41 AM

maybe mention it as like 'so two things i thought of, this and this, this thing is more imminently important though'

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:42 AM

Yeah, that works. I'm just wondering if the SS stuff will get us too sidetracked to do the other stuff right now.

I mean, we could always try it later.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:42 AM

probably

yeah theres always later

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:43 AM

The same with the other stuff, though, and do you want to go into power testing again ?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:43 AM

Fuck. You're right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:43 AM

no power testing for midnight

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:43 AM

Agreed.

"So, my power was rather put off by Shadow Stalker, so I looked into her files. Is her caseworker meant to send in duplicate reports?"

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 01:44 AM

Nope

They are not suppose to do that

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 01:45 AM

"She isn't. Not at all."

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 01:45 AM

Now why would she do it?

There’s three possibilities (edited)

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:45 AM

"Yeah. Uh, a little problem with that. Here, I have the files on my laptop."

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 01:45 AM

A, she is incompetent

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 01:45 AM

"..."

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 01:45 AM

B, she is corrupt

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 01:46 AM

"Fuck."

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 01:46 AM

Or C, Both

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:46 AM

"I haven't really been able to do more than a cursory look, and I've never even met her."

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 01:46 AM

But all of these points towards something being amiss in SS civilian life

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:47 AM

"Furthermore, my power tipped me off that she may have involved in a particularly nasty incident in her civilian life."

"Here. A girl trapped in a filthy locker at Winslow High."

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 01:48 AM

Now think where you do think SS would go to school?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:48 AM

may wanna warn her to brace her stomach

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 01:48 AM

"..."

"If this is true..."

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 01:49 AM

It may not be

It maybe be simple an error of bureaucracy

But is always good to check isn’t it

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:49 AM

i doubt it

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 01:49 AM

Of course we doubt it

But better this facade of maybe than absolute security

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:50 AM

i feel like an interview with the bullied girl or her family might help

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 01:50 AM

"I can only hope this is incompetence and not outright corruption. Either way, the duplicate reports are enough to trigger an investigation."

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:50 AM

"An interview with the locker girl would probably be for the best."

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 01:51 AM

"Yeah."

"Do you mind helping me research this?"

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:51 AM

"That's what I was going to ask you."

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:52 AM

Good, because I can not imagine that something like this comes simply from nowhere, there had to be stuff happing before the locker to escalate to this proportion.

Say that

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:52 AM

Good point.

"I doubt the locker thing was a one-off incident too. It seems more like the kind of thing that would be escalated towards."

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 01:53 AM

"..."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 01:53 AM

probably at least like 6 months damning evidence on shadow stalker's phones

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 01:54 AM

Phones. She might have texts on her phones.

"Can we check her phones? Both her Wards one and her Civilian one."

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 01:55 AM

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:01 AM

The Undersiders. Skitter? She's a villain?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:01 AM

that team that has a member named tattletale who, judging by the name, is almost certainly a thinker capable of digging up secrets and likely able to manipulate using them with ease

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 02:01 AM

Not really

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:01 AM

who wants to be a villain?

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 02:02 AM

Ough damn censor

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:02 AM

...

She'd have to be pretty far gone to rob a bank like that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:03 AM

or she would have to have a goal

and be a stupid teenager

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:03 AM

A goal...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:03 AM

like, say, uncovering the secret of how a gang of teenagers can function in a city with mad superbombers, dragons, and supernazis

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:04 AM

There's just so little info on Skitter. The Bank was her debut.

Hmmm, not really

Yes

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:05 AM

So when did she debut?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:05 AM

ask armsmaster about it

She did something big before that.

So, what, Skitter took down Lung?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:06 AM

yep

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:06 AM

I'll grab the file.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:07 AM

should say there was an issue with tranquilizers in the file

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:07 AM

Ah. That's not very pleasant for Lung to go through.

I have access to the tinker database too, I can probably find them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:07 AM

her name is skitter > likely has bug control > how the fuck do you take down a dragon with bugs

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:07 AM

Oh.

She poisoned him because his regen could handle it, then Armsmaster's tranq cut off most of his regen.

Is that it?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:08 AM

yep

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 02:08 AM

And why was lung on the prowl that night ?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:09 AM

The Undersiders were sighted during that fight.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:09 AM

the ruby dreams casino got robbed by the undersiders

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:09 AM

They were fighting Oni Lee. Okay, that got through fine.

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 02:09 AM

Can you see how the connection builds ?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:10 AM

So Lung goes after the Undersiders. Skitter splits off from the rest of her group to fight Lung. She poisons him, then Armsmaster tranqs him after she's gone.

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 02:10 AM

No

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:10 AM

like you said, the bank was pretty much her debut

look at the costume, consider how much time had to go into making it

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:11 AM

shes working with real ass insects to try and make something to keep her alive

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:11 AM

Skitter wasn't a member of the Undersiders? She was recruited afterwards?

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 02:11 AM

Yes

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:11 AM

when would have been a prime opportunity in this small window of time for them to recruit her?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:11 AM

So her first fight was Lung, and then she was recruited to the Undersiders to do the bank.

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 02:12 AM

Yep

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:12 AM

And that begs the question: Why did she attack Lung?

What are the undersides?

Thiefs (edited)

Parahumans

Kids

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:13 AM

If she joined them specifically to find out more about them, and she fought a villain on her debut...

She was a hero.

Now what happens if you are new and don’t know much and see lung going for kids

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:13 AM

Is a hero?

Yep

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 02:14 AM

And what does a hero do in a team of villains

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:14 AM

So she's currently secretly a hero, working undercover.

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 02:14 AM

Yea and no

She is a teenager

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 02:14 AM

Yeah, but she is not very good at it

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 02:14 AM

What does she really know of undercover work

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:14 AM

you need actual training to pull off undercover shit to not get 'lost in the mask' so to speak

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:14 AM

She would've been isolated due to bullying.

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 02:14 AM

They have a very good thinker

Good news

There's footage of the Undersiders all fighting Bakuda together posted online. There could be bonding through through that.

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 02:15 AM

Mostly through the torture sesión

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 02:17 AM

I think you need to talk with miss militia again

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:17 AM

Yeah. I used anime thoughts to speed this up.

How much do I tell her? For Skitter's wellbeing?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:18 AM

for skitter's wellbeing, you get her as backup to go after armsmaster's ass on this so we can press gang her into not being a dumbass teen and getting herself hurt

well, hurt worse

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 02:18 AM

For skitters wellbeing in the longer term, everything.

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:19 AM

Right. For her own good.

besides, talking to her about her goals may unlock more dialogue options for us lol

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:19 AM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:19 AM

oh horribly

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:19 AM

Then wouldn't that make things worse?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:20 AM

Dammit.

her current goal, outside of friendship

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 02:21 AM

Leverage on the mayor?

I'm scared of strong-arming Skitter here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 02:40 AM

you can probably go in for the soft-serve

theyll make her rebrand, may limit her powers or make her move

but either way, the undersiders and coil need to be stopped

if shes on the team, they basically cant be

area of effect stealth and damage, plus a lot of horror factor with the bugs and all

she can probably sense through em in order to direct em, too, so that synergizes well with tattletale assuming her power's combat-applicable

grue's fog probably didnt disrupt her control of the bugs she had on people in the bank, otherwise theyd have ran

make someone stumble into that with regent's powers, and well

even if you can hide from hellhound's dogs, youre fucked

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 02:44 AM

Shit. Right. Need to think bigger.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 03:22 AM

and yeah airquotes hero since shes taken some villainous actions by this point

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 03:23 AM

"The thing is, she's a teenager, so the whole thing isn't that good a plan anyway."

"She'd be lonely, and she'd be set against the system, so her spending time with villains around her age is a terrible move for her."

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 03:24 AM

long version time

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 03:24 AM

nah this is basically a tl;dr so far

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 03:24 AM

"I guess I'll go chronologically here."

"Ms Hebert gets her powers due to the trauma of the locker thing. She spends several months making her suit and preparing to become a hero."

"Now, here's where my power starts making leaps, and what I wanted Armsmaster to confirm."

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 03:26 AM

Yep

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 03:27 AM

"Ms Hebert's debut wasn't the bank job. She wasn't a member of the Undersiders until very recently."

"Her debut was when she went out as a hero, and overheard Lung talking about killing kids. She decided to attack Lung pumping him full of insect venom to override his regeneration."

"This is probably when she met the Undersiders for the first time, and where they got an interest in her."

"After they leave, Armsmaster shows up. He offers to claim to be the one who took down Lung so Skitter would be safe from reprisal. Maybe he talks about how much of an unknown the Undersiders are."

"Maybe she approaches the Undersiders, or maybe they approach her. She wants to figure out what makes them tick, what their powers are."

"So she joins up. To make sure they think she's on board, she begrudgingly agrees to the bank robbery. She puts on her best scary face and goes with them."

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 03:32 AM

"But she'd know their powers by then, right? Why not turn them in then and there?"

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 03:33 AM

"Okay, I know I'm going to sound like a conspiracy theorist here, but it's the info my power is giving me."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 03:33 AM

thats fair

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 03:34 AM

True

Mostly she must have discovered something else

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 03:34 AM

"At some point, Ms Hebert finds out about how the Undersiders were able to stay together, and how and why they were able to do the jobs they did."

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 03:34 AM

Which is a backer

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 03:35 AM

"Their sponsor, Coil. I know, I know, my power's been going at Coil, but it's what it's been giving me."

"Anyway. Coil has a lot of money and a powerful thinker power - the Undersiders' motivation and success rate respectively."

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 03:37 AM

He uses them as patsies and distractions

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 03:38 AM

its kind of weird how in the bank robbery, literally everyone was tied up while dinah alcott, the mayor's niece, got kidnapped, huh?

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 03:38 AM

"Ms Hebert finds out that the Undersiders have a mysterious sponsor, and she wants to find out who they are first, so she needs to stay a bit longer."

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 03:38 AM

"And Coil's motivation for doing this?"

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 03:39 AM

Power

Like any other criminal

He wants power

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 03:39 AM

like the other gang leaders, particularly

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 03:39 AM

"He uses them as a pawn for whatever his plans may be at the time. In the case of the bank, a distraction - isn't it interesting that all of the Wards and Protectorate were tied up when the mayor's niece was kidnapped?"

"Anyway."

"Coil has or will be getting the Travelers on board soon too, so that's another five capes, and powerful ones too."

"Anyway, my point here is that Skitter is in over her head, and I want to get her out as soon as possible. The only problem here is that she'd probably be very resistant to being strong-armed into anything."

"That's about the long and short of what I could figure out."

"So, I was thinking that we could ask Armsmaster about Skitter, just to confirm that I'm not making this all up or something."

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 03:43 AM

"..."

"I see. If this is the truth..."

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 03:44 AM

She also starts to latch on the undersiders due to prior isolation

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 03:44 AM

"Yeah. If she hangs out with the group of people her age who value her a lot more more than she was for however long it's been..."

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 03:45 AM

"She gets attached."

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 03:46 AM

"And the longer that happens, the less heroic she'll be inclined to be in the end."

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 03:46 AM

Yep

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 03:46 AM

"Anyway. I'm guessing you'd want some measure of proof for this. Thus, Armsmaster."

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 03:46 AM

Yep

tizian.s 11-Jan-21 03:46 AM

Especially if she finds out the wrong way the shadow stalker is sophia hess.

shadow stalker comes before skitter, you dont wanna put the person responsible for someone's trigger on the same team as them

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 03:47 AM

Lucky_Plucky21 11-Jan-21 04:07 AM

Now time to see how to get her out

Armsmaster BOT 11-Jan-21 04:07 AM

"Skitter made her venomous bugs bite Lung, so when I used a tranquilizer to stop his regeneration, he was unable to handle all the venom."

"I agreed to claim that I'd taken down Lung so that she'd be safe from Bakuda deciding she wanted to take revenge."

"I also mentioned how elusive the Undersiders were, so she took it upon herself to infiltrate them. Without training, or a handler, into a group she knew had a powerful thinker."

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 04:10 AM

"That about matches what Austin told me."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 11-Jan-21 04:11 AM

welp, time to read armsy in on this

im sure hes wondering whats up

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 04:12 AM

"That's most of what my power told me. There's more, but I don't have solid proof to back me up yet."

"Skitter learned what the Undersiders' powers were shortly after she joined, but she also learned that the Undersiders had a mysterious backer, so she changed her goal to finding out who they were. She still doesn't know, but I do."

"Coil. A powerful thinker of some stripe. Some sort of precog that percieves his power as a pericog power, but I haven't dug deeper than that yet."

"Coil's been using the Undersiders as a pawn or a distraction in exchange for paying them to stick together and go on jobs he wants them to do."

"For example, the bank - Coil wanted as many heroes as possible tied up while he kidnapped the mayor's niece."

"Apparently, Coil also has or will hired the Travellers, but I haven't dug much into that, aside from the fact that the Travellers are Ziz bombs."

"I think that about sums things up."

Armsmaster BOT 11-Jan-21 04:18 AM

"You're telling the truth, or you at least believe you are."

Austin BOT 11-Jan-21 04:19 AM

Huh. Is he a thinker too?

Right. I'll bring up the Shadow Stalker thing and then settle in for the night.

It's been A Day.

"One more thing, there's evidence of misconduct on the part of Shadow Stalker's handler. My power insists that she's been misbehaving in her civilian identity, and that her caseworker has been at best ignorant and at worst covering up for her."

Miss Militia BOT 11-Jan-21 04:26 AM

Well remember Pavlov

Malaki 15-Jan-21 02:31 PM

No

of course that would wear on her sanity, doing the same thing with what she got

Attack of the clones big

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 02:55 PM

Something comparable to the endbringers?

Like a whole Star Wars conflict big

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 02:55 PM

Have you seen Akira

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 02:55 PM

yep

Malaki 15-Jan-21 02:56 PM

Look up an incident that happened a few months back in Boston

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 02:56 PM

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 02:57 PM

Do I go down a list of sub-ratings?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 02:57 PM

yes

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 02:57 PM

you can just dump the subratings

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 02:58 PM

This is going to be tedious.

lets not get ahead of ourselves

yeah

Malaki 15-Jan-21 02:59 PM

Yup

Austin Wait. Is this the fucking 'evil clones' issue of the comic?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 02:59 PM

why yes it is

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 02:59 PM

but lets go down the ratings so we can specify how exactly this threat is dangerous

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 02:59 PM

now imagine if someone like Eidolon got cloned

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:00 PM

Is that its main threat? Aside from brute-ness?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:00 PM

yes

Malaki 15-Jan-21 03:00 PM

Yup

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:00 PM

Ah. Fuck.

Malaki 15-Jan-21 03:00 PM

Exactly

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:00 PM

So, giant monster that spits out evil clones.

Malaki 15-Jan-21 03:00 PM

At least it isnt an annihilator

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:00 PM

yeah

Muscle, sunder?, regen

Malaki 15-Jan-21 03:01 PM

Yeah those 3 fit its brute rating

Forge BOT 15-Jan-21 03:01 PM

(Metaknowledge on [Noelle's power] was not sent.)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:01 PM

damn it

Uh, try rewording that?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:01 PM

repost your earlier message on classifications?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:01 PM

Maybe say 'Oh, I wish I had these three brute sub-ratings' or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:02 PM

consider crawler

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:02 PM

Big regenerator

Adapts from whatever hits him.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:02 PM

strip out adaptation, just make him tough as hell

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:02 PM

Ah.

Got it.

Malaki 15-Jan-21 03:02 PM

Mhm

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:02 PM

So, how does it clone people, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:02 PM

theres another really important combo rating regarding that

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:03 PM

Knowledge? Traces of DNA?

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:03 PM

True

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:03 PM

uh. youre on the right track with the second example

but you need more for that

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:03 PM

Yep

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:03 PM

More? Less?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:03 PM

way more

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:03 PM

The entire person?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:03 PM

yep.

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:03 PM

Yay

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:04 PM

now what sort of classification relating to powers and people is really scary? (edited)

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:04 PM

So it needs to touch people? Eat them?

Malaki 15-Jan-21 03:04 PM

Yes

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:04 PM

basically eat em, but touch is good too

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:04 PM

Like, fatally eat them?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:04 PM

no

this is soft vore

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:04 PM

Okay good.

God DAMMIT.

Vorebringer. I hate this.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:04 PM

you arent alone

but let me ask you this: why the fuck would people not try to get away from it if it had em

there was something else to this

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:05 PM

It's strong and holds them in place?

Tranqilizer?

Malaki 15-Jan-21 03:05 PM

Tranq

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:05 PM

the second yeah, but i guess first is also apt

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:06 PM

So it vores them and puts them to sleep.

Hhhhhh

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:06 PM

well, not necessarily in that order i dont think?

Malaki 15-Jan-21 03:06 PM

Yeah

They remember getting vored

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:06 PM

Okay, I'm writing up a document with all of this shit to give to MM. I'll update it as we go, I guess.

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:06 PM

More traumatizes then

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:06 PM

i think the vore would count as a striker power

now consider what is on the surface of everything

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:07 PM

So not just sleep, but nightmares?

Wait, it vores them through its skin?

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:07 PM

Yes to both

Now the clones are imperfect clones

What this means for the power?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:08 PM

Okay. Backing up, is it an immediate threat? What will cause it to become a threat? Uh, imperfect power?

Malaki 15-Jan-21 03:08 PM

Yeah imperf

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:08 PM

remember how i said its a coil-relevant threat?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:08 PM

I do remember.

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:08 PM

That he is

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:09 PM

Is this a dead-man's switch or something?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:09 PM

if he already has it

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:09 PM

Ah, right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:09 PM

i think we actually touched on the proto-endbringer topic earlier

in regards to the travellers

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:09 PM

Yeah, I was about to say.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:09 PM

yeah the travellers have it

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:09 PM

Yep

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:10 PM

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:12 PM

So she drank a super-soldier serum, but it was fucked up somehow?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:12 PM

they mixed the kool aid

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:12 PM

They fucked up the process

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:12 PM

this is secret info, dangerous secret info

if someone could make superhumans but had to experiment to get the finished product, theyd wanna be selective about who got it

but in the middle of a simurgh attack, anyone could pick that shit up, yeah?

hard to keep tabs on your product in the middle of a simurgh attack

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:14 PM

Fuck.

Welp.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:14 PM

you sent the serum info out? (edited)

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:14 PM

You did

Fuck (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:15 PM

the good news for you is, the simurgh is a precog, and if someone precognitively mapped out a situation, thatd make other precog maps unreliable yeah?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:15 PM

No, never mind. I had a thought, but it was stupid.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:15 PM

so you know when you are a kid and you mix Colas in the Cola machine they have in places like KFC

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:15 PM

What it was

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:15 PM

so, say, watchdog couldnt figure this out

youre safe from repercussions of knowing about this in relation to them

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:16 PM

They mixed the formulas together?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:16 PM

one of them

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:16 PM

that shit comes out bland if you mix it, i would know

ive drank coke sprite and sweet tea mixed before

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:16 PM

I thought about asking about other serum capes, but it was probably a bad idea.

I thought you just weren't supposed to add tea?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:16 PM

im evil as far as food goes

i put chili on steak

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:17 PM

It's fine-ish if you only use sodas.

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:17 PM

Yep

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:17 PM

Yay

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:17 PM

for good lol

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:18 PM

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:18 PM

Yep

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:18 PM

now let me ask you a question austin

if you are making powers that if mixed becomes monsters

what do you do with the prototypes and rememeber

your not 100% evil

just 40%

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:19 PM

Release them, like I was?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:19 PM

yep

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:19 PM

i really think we should drop the topic before someone decides to lead austin on a thought tangent that gets him killed tho

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:21 PM

Probably for the best.

I have a list of the milestones I got at the bottom of my notes doc. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1U2Z_PaQVwKPdSC_il4mte7IZ8GQOIjHUj1m_QHd-kBM/edit?usp=sharing

New Notebook.nofy

Events so far: I wake up during the night in a town called Brockton Bay to a flying golden man, Scion, who looks at me and flies away. I have no memories, several physical mutations, and an omega tattoo on my palm. I’m able to communicate with people from another dimension, but they’re limited i...

Chronological order.

I didn't get anything from 'The Slug', but each of the others apparently gave me a power.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:23 PM

i think this is it

do we have more meta stuff ?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:23 PM

How much of it do I need to know right now?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:23 PM

i dont think any of the highest tier stuff is need to know atm

just the disasters heading for the bay

needed to know, rather

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:24 PM

But how many of them do I need to know right now?

Like, now and not tomorrow.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:25 PM

let me check the timetables

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:25 PM

I think this are all

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:25 PM

I think I'm reaching the limit on how much I can process at once.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:25 PM

april 17th yeah?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:25 PM

Yep.

I arrived at ~11PM on the 15th.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:26 PM

hm. well there is some minor cape violence, but in a city like this, when isnt there

according to our source of knowledge, assuming nothing has changed, you should take a week or so worth of a breather

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:27 PM

maybe relevant stuff about the undersiders , the rest shoudnt matter that mutch

maybe bakuda deadman ?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:27 PM

Okay, so we have time.

There was a fight between the Undersiders and Bakuda, and someone recorded it and shared it around. She mentioned a dead-man's switch in that.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:28 PM

yeah

its in one of her body parts

do you know that head shoulders song ?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:29 PM

latter half of that thing

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:29 PM

the kids song

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:29 PM

She had toe-ring detonators I think? Dunno where her dead-man's switch is, though.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:29 PM

oh yeah its that

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:29 PM

dead mans switch... lemme look up bakuda rq

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:31 PM

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:34 PM

The undersiders aren’t that bad compared to others

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:34 PM

not huge ones

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:34 PM

Sigh. The censor is fucking annoying.

Getting any info to me is a struggle.

Actually, how much do I need to know this?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:34 PM

but if i were her, id either shove it in my mask to monitor biometrics and brain signals, since unmasking generally doesnt happen, or in my chest tracking my heartbeat

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:34 PM

Will people die if I don't know this right now?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:35 PM

not very but it might be able to help out a lot (edited)

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:35 PM

Can we do it later then?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:35 PM

its motivation and resons

(I haven't read Ward and I'm in the middle of reading Worm, so I won't know all of it.)

Dubiously Motivated Pika 15-Jan-21 03:39 PM

(Oh yeah, Ward is canon in Stoneforge.)

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:39 PM

Okay Austin our bad

Dubiously Motivated Pika (I haven't read Ward and I'm in the middle of reading Worm, so I won't know all of it.)

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:40 PM

(god are you lucky lol)

Austin How vital is it to right now?

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:40 PM

Urgent

It changes the plan all together

Dubiously Motivated Pika 15-Jan-21 03:40 PM

yeah

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:43 PM

This sounds like BS.

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:43 PM

Time to think of how to solve that

It is bullhsit

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:43 PM

a lot of stuff is

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:43 PM

But god gave his word

So its in effect right now (edited)

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:43 PM

thats like the tip of the ice berg

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:44 PM

Time to make plan dissolve panacea

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:44 PM

yeah might need to uh.......unlive her or something

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:48 PM

Forge BOT 15-Jan-21 03:49 PM

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:49 PM

Yeah thank the forge

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:50 PM

Okay, so soft confirmation that 'Evil Panacea' is BS.

Thank the lord.

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:50 PM

POOTIS ENGAGE

i've been working on that since 2019, i hope you will enjoy it, even though the second half of it is not as good as the first one also, can u please not reupload that MR heavy dance to youtube, im going to do it myself Еще у меня есть группа в ВК, но я наверное особо зависать там не буду, так как через впн это не очень удобно, https://vk.com/p...

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:57 PM

So, now I have three and a half hours to spend.

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 03:57 PM

Ye

Do what you want

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:58 PM

Relax? Research? Exercise? Lab?

I'm not really sure what I want to do.

Something at least vaguely productive would be nice.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 03:58 PM

you got a lab? cause if so, research seems like a good option

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 03:58 PM

reseach them

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 03:59 PM

Yeah, there's a Protectorate lab in the Rig. It's just that there was only one local Protectorate tinker before now.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:00 PM

go meet them

you might get achivements from meeting (edited)

from kid win and others

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:00 PM

Actually yeah, I haven't really introduced myself to any of my co-workers aside from Miss Militia and Armsmaster yet, let alone any of the Wards.

Do I wait for a code name and costume first, though?

It's just three and a half hours.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:01 PM

dont think so

you are a 53

so it doesnt really matter that mutch

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:01 PM

yeah they might have you forgo mask or anything all things considered

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:02 PM

Yeah. I was just wondering if I should have, like, a proper hero identity first.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:02 PM

nope

after , you will basically be living that hero 24/7 so they try to be kind

the "identity" is mostly just a name

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:04 PM

I guess I'm scared I'll look unprofessional or something.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:05 PM

they are teens (edited)

prob doesnt care

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:05 PM

im pretty sure youve already met 90% of the capes whod give a shit about looking professional

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:06 PM

The Wards base is in a different building anyway.

I'm at the Rig right now, and the Wards base is in the PRT building downtown.

I guess I could start putting down some waypoints to teleport to.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:07 PM

you know

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:07 PM

That could be an excuse to go to the PRT HQ.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:07 PM

you might become the prt fast responce unit

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:08 PM

Huh, good point.

Between teleporting and healing, I'd be pretty good at that.

There's some movement and teleportation spells I could make, too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:09 PM

ooh, yeah, that works well

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:09 PM

Pretty short range, but they're there.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:09 PM

you know

mass producing some healling spells might help panacea

it might heal brains

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:11 PM

Point.

Should I get started on that, then?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:12 PM

yeah

it might get some support for the local prt

god knows they need it

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:12 PM

I still need to make them by hand, but they're not super expensive.

They don't take too long to make either.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:13 PM

how many do you think per hour ?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:13 PM

Maybe two per hour? And I can make maybe 6 spell bullets per hour.

So that would be, what, five loaded healing guns?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:14 PM

humm if you want to set a price for that , dunno if you can charge 40 per

half what a doctor gets per hour

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:16 PM

Material costs are pretty low. I do need to make some special chemicals to stand in for redstone, which I don't have access to. Otherwise, it's just that and iron.

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 04:16 PM

Great

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:17 PM

I'll get onto it, then.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:17 PM

hummm could you automate the process ?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:17 PM

I'm not enough of a tinker for that yet.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:18 PM

i mean more tell someone to make the metal part while you make some big vats of not!redstone

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:18 PM

Oh, point.

I could try to teach other people enough to help me make them instead of doing it all alone.

And the previous estimates were for doing every step to make a single one, not accounting for making redstone-substitute en-masse.

It's 6:30AM, so not many people are here yet.

The only problem here is knowing who to trust.

Who's to say that nobody I get to help will be a Coil mole?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:21 PM

no make iron stuff

not like they are making the chems

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:21 PM

coil would not be dumb enough to use your gear i dont think, unless he wants to reveal he has moles in the prt

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:22 PM

Point.

So, do I take people on, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:23 PM

at that point you just say 'thomas calvert is coil, he probably uses body doubles or something to help stay safe' if he does make a move question tho

can you tag agents via minimap?

or track em?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:23 PM

ask if they want to help you out

or wait for a techie

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:23 PM

I can note down their names if need be.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:23 PM

....or a intern

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:23 PM

Names, serial numbers...

Those show up on the minimap.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:23 PM

can you expand the map?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:24 PM

I can get a full map, but that doesn't have person markers on it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:24 PM

damn

does it still show up with name and serial number if they take off their uniform?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:25 PM

do you have ink ?

if yes take finger prints

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:25 PM

cause if so if any of em are moles you can patrol areas late at night and point em out

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:26 PM

It gives me their real name unless they're using a code name of some kind.

I think I could track them well enough.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:26 PM

yeah take people on in that case

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:26 PM

I will.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:27 PM

its grunt work anyways, youre handling the magic stuff

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:27 PM

So, am I trying to teach them or get their help to make more stuff than I could on my own?

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 04:27 PM

Yep

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:28 PM

I have five people, by the way - a soldier, three researchers who were there at power testing, and one intern.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:28 PM

make more stuff, teach if you find em trustworthy

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 04:28 PM

Yep

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:28 PM

both

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:28 PM

get to know em and all

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:28 PM

teach them there part

you work on the notstone

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 04:29 PM

True

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:29 PM

Psidust - notstone - is pretty easy to make. I just need to mix it up and use a spell on it.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:30 PM

so go make tons of it

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:30 PM

But I can probably try to teach them a bit on the job. It'll slow things down, but it'll be worth it.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:30 PM

it will be faster later

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:31 PM

Yeah, sounds like a plan.

I'll give updates as I go - no reason to subject everyone here to three and a half hours of this.

Ugh, I keep having to avoid using 'magic' words.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:33 PM

energetic anomaly

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:33 PM

It's easier to pretend it isn't magic than try to convince people that it exists.

I've been using 'exotic energy'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 04:33 PM

power fuckery works just as well, if a bit more profane

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:34 PM

Is there a BS acronym for MANA I can use?

In case I slip up.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:34 PM

prana ?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:34 PM

Like, an excuse to call it 'mana'.

Eh, I can stick to 'exotic energy' for now.

Things are going pretty well otherwise - I needed to make a smaller batch of psidust to start everyone off, but things are going well.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:37 PM

Just so you know

You just go a huge tinker point up

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:38 PM

How so?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:38 PM

The ability to have normals help the production is rare

Like really rare

But its mostly because of the speciality

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:38 PM

Huh. I guess that's why Armsmaster didn't have any flunkies to help him.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:38 PM

Yep

How do you help the super high tech tinker

You don’t

A dunno chemical one you might be able

might

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:39 PM

But CADs are meant for high schoolers to make and use.

So I can teach it pretty easily.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:40 PM

Yeah

Only the psy stone is the bottleneck (edited)

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:40 PM

Well, I can just mix up a huge batch of it if I needed to. Get a huge vat and go nuts if need be.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:41 PM

They will prob ask for it yeah

Its pocket healing

And other spells you can program

Does it have a stun one ?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:42 PM

There's slowing and movement prevention. Not sure if iron CADs are good enough to use the latter, though.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:42 PM

Still they might also ask for that as a side arm

Comfoam and CADs

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:43 PM

I need actual gold to make better CADs. Like, replacing all the iron bits with gold. Still, iron CADs can do a pretty good job.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:43 PM

I mean

Ask for it

Not like they will say no

You have a budget

And well

It might rise super fast

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:43 PM

Like, several pounds of gold. For a single CAD.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:43 PM

Oh

Well depending on the increase in power it might be still worth it

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:44 PM

Hopefully I get something to let me start, I dunno, transmuting or creating resources.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:44 PM

Transmutation is powerful

You might be able to spam it for actual redstone

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:45 PM

I think there's mods like that, right Forge?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:45 PM

Or other rare matters

Forge BOT 15-Jan-21 04:45 PM

Yes. There are material creation and transmutation mods in the list.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:46 PM

At that point the question becomes

How mutch cads do you want because you might be able to transmutate multi ton level of redstone

And other materials

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:47 PM

I mean, ideally enough to outfit the entire PRT. For now, just a few will do.

Enough for a chunk of the local PRT, I'd say.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:48 PM

let me ask you a hipotetical then , if right now you rolled a super duper transmutation power and a Mass effect power

and you could mass produce eezo

an element that the only limitation is imagination , would you give it to them ? (edited)

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:49 PM

Not willy-nilly.

Maybe over time?

Once stuff has started to cool down.

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 04:50 PM

Sounds good

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:50 PM

remember that your stuff will never just stay with the prt

they are an Gov agency (edited)

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:50 PM

Ideally, I'd release at least some of my tech to the public.

I'm not going to keep this all to myself.

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 04:51 PM

Thats good

But a tiny itsy problem

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:51 PM

Oh?

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 04:51 PM

That you see in front of stores

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:51 PM

the 9 and ziz

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 04:51 PM

And is coming for you the moment you do that

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:51 PM

Oh.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:51 PM

also

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:51 PM

Fuck.

Lucky_Plucky21 15-Jan-21 04:51 PM

Ye

Specially Manniquin

He has a hate boner against those like you

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:52 PM

how fast do you think uncle sam makes an space cruser and enforce peace with a star destroyer ? (edited)

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:52 PM

Mannequin and the Simurgh. God dammit. And, of course, Fucking America.

There's no way I'm releasing all of this at once.

I'd probably start by sharing it with other heroic tinkers and stuff, then release it when the world is ready for it.

...I'll just hope that's not 'never'.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:53 PM

it might never be

its going down the drain

slowly and slowly

for reasons

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:54 PM

Yeah...

I guess sharing my tech is a bit of wistful thinking.

But I'm going to stay optimistic.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:54 PM

you might legit have to

like be forced to

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:55 PM

...

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:55 PM

things will get scarry real fast

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:55 PM

Let's hope it doesn't come to that.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:55 PM

fingers crossed

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:55 PM

Anyway. It's currently 9:45 and we made 6 working CADs and 12 spell bullets. I copied the healing spell onto six of the bullets, and the other 6 I'll keep to develop new spells on.

You know, now that I've made them, I'm not entirely sure what to do with them. I kinda just put them in my inventory.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:56 PM

yeah might be worth to takes some day to just make bullets

Austin You know, now that I've made them, I'm not entirely sure what to do with them. I kinda just put them in my inventory.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:56 PM

ask the techies if they want some

like 1 or 2

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:57 PM

Point.

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:57 PM

keep the rest for testing and selling

also a question

does the "wands" have maintenance (edited)

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 04:59 PM

They shouldn't need maintenance. A loophole in the Minecraft item making power means they can't really be destroyed unless they're incinerated or something.

Why?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 04:59 PM

ahhaha

welcome tinker 8

tinker tech need almost daily maintenance

takes a lot of an tinker time to do it (edited)

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 05:00 PM

Oh.

Well, I don't think much of my stuff really needs maintenance.

I'd need to fix up Minecraft tools every once in a while, but other than that, they'd only need repairs if they're damaged.

Okay, I left all 6 with the techies to do whatever with, plus a container of Psidust.

They can decide who gets them.

Anyway, I'm off to the PR meeting.

Welp.

They want to know what my thinker power says on the topic of code names and costumes.

Malaki 15-Jan-21 05:05 PM

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:00 PM

Ooh, that looks cool.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:01 PM

ye ye

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EYJ4FvqWkAAW3PE?format=png&name=360x360 theres also this

in case youre looking for ideas for subtle accents

Dubiously Motivated Pika 15-Jan-21 07:02 PM

Maybe something like this?

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 07:03 PM

Oh

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:03 PM

oooooh

Spiritual Liege 15-Jan-21 07:03 PM

This looks nice (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:03 PM

fuck thats good

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D5PJSFgWsAMSJsF?format=jpg&name=large this gave me an idea tho

at least as far as chestplate design goes, it seems like itd suit you well

less pointy, could use some recolors but

with some tweaks it could be great for mobility

though im not sure if youve got a secondary power that lets you do everything in armor unhindered

it is kinda bulky im noticing now

hm

all in all tho i really like that last thing ya sent

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:08 PM

Yeah, I'm changing the colour of the accents on that one atm

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:12 PM

fair

one thing i like about all these top-tier designs is the guards at the sides of the legs

lets you hide supplies or weapons and look all the more heroic while you do

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:21 PM

This one is a tad more 'ender'.

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 07:21 PM

You've got a pretty slender frame so broadening your silhouette would help you seem more proportionate, and thus, less scary as a tall enderboy (edited)

also im weirdly loving the pink

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:23 PM

it works, ye

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:27 PM

Think we have a final design?

Because I think I like this one.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:29 PM

think so

worst case scenario, we have a color palette we can work with later (edited)

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:30 PM

Point.

Well, I'll show the PR people.

Forge BOT 15-Jan-21 07:33 PM

Milestone achieved!

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:33 PM

Oh hell yeah!

So I'd have a new power installed now.

...Oh no.

Power Testing

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:35 PM

This, uh...

Isn't really the kind of power I want to test.

Even if it wasn't so resource intensive, I'd really rather not use this at all.

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 07:36 PM

what is it?

is it like morph?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:37 PM

Not quite.

Have you heard of a Minecraft mod called Lucky Blocks?

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 07:37 PM

i have not

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:37 PM

OH NO

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:37 PM

Yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:38 PM

its gambling in minecraft form

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:38 PM

Cubes that, when broken, do something either very good, very bad, or very weird.

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 07:38 PM

gatcha blocks

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:38 PM

includes potentially lethal responses, but you can craft them up to like 100+ luck yeah?

Forge BOT 15-Jan-21 07:38 PM

Note: Lucky Blocks adapt to all installed powers, as well as the state of the world and the powers in it.

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:38 PM

Yeah, lucky blocks can be made with higher or lower luck values.

Uh. I am very worried about what Forge said. Anyone else?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:39 PM

ambiguous statement

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:39 PM

Point.

Uh, Forge, can you elaborate? If you can?

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 07:40 PM

the gatcha includes Shard stuff?

and tinker tech?

and endbringers

oh fuck me

natural generation a possiblity?

Forge BOT 15-Jan-21 07:41 PM

The pool of possibilities for Lucky Blocks includes options for all installed powers - if Pixelmon was installed, it could spawn Pokemon. It also includes all local supernatural power sources and the like - it could crack the Firmament or spawn a piece of tinkertech.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:42 PM

oh Jesus

never do anything under max luck

Forge BOT 15-Jan-21 07:42 PM

The world file is fully pre-generated. Worlds that aren't already pre-generated will spawn lucky blocks.

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:42 PM

Fucking noted, Hours.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:42 PM

wait. this could actually work out

earth cauldron

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:42 PM

Oh, point.

Lucky Blocks need a butt-ton of gold to make, anyway.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:43 PM

...actually

i dont know if earth gimel is inhabited, or generated

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 07:43 PM

maybe its any world a human isn't on?

Forge BOT 15-Jan-21 07:44 PM

All alternate worlds are pre-generated. Other dimensions are not.

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 07:44 PM

that can be "gen'd" anyway

ahhhhh

i see

so nether

if austin can somehow get there?

Forge BOT 15-Jan-21 07:44 PM

Special dimensions such as The Firmament are already generated, in addition.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:44 PM

i wonder if theres an earth out there thats just made of a fuckton of gold

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 07:45 PM

nah but it should largely be in the same places

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:45 PM

I mean, one of the powers I got is called Minecraft: Overworld, so there's probably Minecraft: Nether in there.

And yeah, point, I could just go to an alternate Earth in a place where a gold mine is in this world.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:46 PM

can austin rename or attach notes to various servers?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:46 PM

No admin access, I'm afraid.

Why?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:46 PM

dang

i was thinking that if you find a goldmine world, itd be convenient to make a note of that where it couldnt be found

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:47 PM

I mean, they all already have unique names, I can just write it down.

Problem is, going to other Earths is one of the things I kept on the down-low.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:48 PM

true, but still, yeah. might be weird if someone finds those notes

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:49 PM

I mean, I'd be keeping them in the same place as my personal notes document, so they'd already know too much by the time they got to those notes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:49 PM

true

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:51 PM

Well, now I have a few hours to build my costume, and then I'll be having a meeting to introduce myself to the other heroes.

Tomorrow I meet the Wards and am officially announced.

I guess I'll be heading to the Lab, then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:51 PM

be on guard at your announcement

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:52 PM

Good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:52 PM

that seems like the sort of thing someone would be stupid about

like coil or one of the gangs

undersiders seem likely

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:53 PM

Or the ABB.

It might be attention-catching enough for them to show up and make a scene.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:53 PM

true

i def feel like theres a good chance of undersiders tho, considering coil would be able to get access to all this stuff, plus the whole dinah situation we went over before

or travellers

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:55 PM

During a crisis like this? I'll be on the lookout, anyway.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:56 PM

i mean, hitting the prt during a crisis would be a goal of any criminal with ambition in this city

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 07:56 PM

Buckingham County in Virginia looks like your best bet close for off earth gold mining, if the formation stage of earth stayed largely the same

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:56 PM

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 07:57 PM

Hmm, if I can get over there and set a waypoint, that'll be real nice.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 07:57 PM

Pfft!

I wish I could download a car tbh. It would make it a lot easier to get around.

Welp, the armour is finished. It didn't take as long as I thought it would, I think the way I'm making it means it's easier to craft than regular iron armour.

ooh, thatd work out splendidly i think

did they test if you conserve motion or bring along heavy equipment when you go to waypoints?

surprise! i have a cannon!

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 09:46 PM

I guess it does mean I'd have at least 1 in every rating.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 09:46 PM

you have every single rating, though. wow

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 09:46 PM

I'd assume it would be about sneaking stuff around.

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 09:46 PM

that's a rare privledge

not many people get that

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 09:47 PM

I mean, I am a trump, it kinda makes sense.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 09:47 PM

honestly id kinda expect the 1's in several categories to disappear due to the trump designation, but fair

its all in the Trump one

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 09:47 PM

Since I have a bunch of set powers, the power testing people rated each of them.

i feel sorry for your sense of patience

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 09:49 PM

Yeah. Just be glad I didn't need to mention my 'thinker power' to them, or else they would've been playing 20 questions with you for hours.

god yeah, fuck that

that wouldve gotten a lot of people killed

20 questions meets russian roulette

Hah. Honestly, probably.

to figure out what counts as "Publicly Available"

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 09:50 PM

I just DMed Forge for whatever I needed during power testing.

might grock you're not really getting publicly available info from this earth

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 09:50 PM

Yeah, true.

Welp, the meeting is over.

I have a thick file on the local situation to read, and Armsmaster is interested in my tech.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 09:56 PM

heres hoping he'll be getting something good out of it

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 09:56 PM

can you ask to rec some gold or is that way out of budget

how pure does it have to be?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 09:56 PM

im curious as to whether he can replicate the effects of a CAD in his own gear

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 09:57 PM

Gold is probably out of budget, with how much I'll need. Gold as low as 18 karats will do, but even then, it'll be a lot.

The CAD would need casing made of psimetal, which is made at a 1:1 ratio from gold. Psimetal is also needed for a lot of the circuitry.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 09:59 PM

to be fair, armsy's specialization may reduce those requirements by a Lot

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 09:59 PM

Psi tools and armour are also locked behind Psimetal.

Yeah, good point.

I have the same knowledge on Psi that a particularly knowledgeable high school teacher might, if they ran classes on magic.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 10:00 PM

actually, if you work together with him, you may be able to make CADs the size of like. a derringer or something

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 10:00 PM

Yeah, he'd probably be able to lower the required resources by a lot.

I got some gold leaf to infuse into psimetal for testing purposes, so maybe he can find some way to stretch it out.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 10:01 PM

Gamer is a travelling villain who showed up in the Bay recently.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 10:07 PM

gamer might be the same sort of cape you are, austin

which is to say, one with out of context powers

because there sure as fuck wasn't a cape named gamer before

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 10:08 PM

Huh. Do you know this for certain, or is this conjecture?

oh its speculation

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 10:10 PM

ever single one mentioned in The Work (edited)

dovetail comes to mind

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 10:10 PM

But not every cape?

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 10:10 PM

nah the focus was one a few in particular

so we can't say we know about every cape

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 10:11 PM

not every single cape ever, theres a reason you landed in the bay

stories generally dont get told about happy people, so a place that becomes a repeat disaster zone is a good place for a story in some people's eyes

Forge BOT 15-Jan-21 10:12 PM

(I'll let it slide.)

Ah.

But you know every cape in the bay, and Gamer wasn't in that list?

gamer is 100% new

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 10:13 PM

that is. weird, but good for reasons both obvious and not so much

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 10:29 PM

It's started going a lot faster, now. He's really smart, even outside of his power. Apparently, he got a degree in engineering.

likely because it works on like, Quantum fuckery and that is nothing compared to actual magic (edited)

and thats the reason armsmaster is awesome

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 10:30 PM

Don't suppose Forge has any insight on this?

Forge BOT 15-Jan-21 10:33 PM

Shards don't have any inherent mana, so his shard is unable to test the CAD.

Oh.

And there was something about the fact I didn't need to sleep earlier, right?

And now I'm telling him the specialty of a tinker he's known for, what, months? Years? And he hadn't figured it out himself.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 10:45 PM

yeah, hes a natural workaholic, probably takes as much pride as he can in his work

i can say without a doubt that hes probably one of the best tinkers out there - so its probably one part genuine desire to want to do more with every resource he has to help people and one part simple wish to be able to look better, do better, to come off as the big damn hero more easily (edited)

lol

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 10:58 PM

Working out the geometric logic was a huge pain, too. I mean, I still need to use trigonometry to make sure the spells go where I want, but it's a lot better now.

CADs are weird as hell, because the spells don't shoot straight down the barrel like a normal gun.

The spell is constructed inside the barrel from the user's mana, and then it's fired out according to how it's programmed.

More blaster-y spells actually fire directly away from the caster's head, instead of the direction the CAD is pointing.

Actually, Forge, do you know my name?

Oh!

Huh. I was a girl?

seems so, yeah

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:19 PM

given theyre in the same situation but with more resources, im outsourcing ideas for the whole slug situation so you can maybe get your memories back at some point

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:21 PM

Same hat!

Ah, thanks.

Anyway, we were trying to name my iron golem, I think?

yep

how about ben, then - no connection to the douchebag thomas of this universe

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:26 PM

I mean, if I had a cousin named Ben too, it might be a bit weird.

cuddles is a good standby

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:29 PM

Welp, good thing there were pumpkins in the kitchen.

Armsmaster is giving me a weird look.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:29 PM

hes probably a little worried about biotinkering

this is gonna be funny

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:30 PM

either that or Concerning

I think he thinks I'm going to eat it?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:30 PM

youre gonna blow his mind

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:30 PM

He thinks I'm going to crack open a raw pumpkin and start shoveling its insides into my mouth or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:31 PM

im dying

im dying squirtle

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:31 PM

I mean, no reason I couldn't, carved out pumpkins work just as well as normal ones.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:32 PM

you should probably warn him about the whole golem thing

he might panic otherwise

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:32 PM

I mean, if he wouldn't yell at me for eating in the lab, it would be worth it just to see his expression.

Yeah, good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:32 PM

'im gonna convert this pumpkin to an iron golem head'

'its going to be ridiculous but im doing it to piss off the power testing people'

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:33 PM

"Think of it as the brain, but not"

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:33 PM

Armsmaster BOT 15-Jan-21 11:34 PM

robot

This is new

actually

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:37 PM

Welp.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:38 PM

maybe we shouldve predicted that the robot would have an ai

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:38 PM

don't they make vocalizations that sound like villagers in the game?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:38 PM

Point.

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:38 PM

just

deeper?

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:39 PM

"Uh, welcome to living, Captain Cuddlesworth. Good to have you."

Iron golems are more magic than technological, actually.

I know very, very little about golemancy, but it's a Thing that Exists, apparently.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:40 PM

cuddlesworth may have a soul and im not sure how to process that

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 15-Jan-21 11:40 PM

"I'm alive. Thank you, mom."

strike that, definitely does

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:40 PM

Oh, Cpt. Cuddlesworth definitely has a soul.

He's far above the 'soul' threshold.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:41 PM

both you and armsmaster are just standing there gobsmacked by this arent you

bit of a small shock

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:42 PM

Just a bit of a shock. Just a tad.

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:42 PM

btw does Cuddles have אמת anywhere

Armsmaster BOT 15-Jan-21 11:42 PM

"It's sapient?!"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:42 PM

this is going to be an issue, youre gonna have to talk him down i think

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:42 PM

I can't see אמת anywhere on it. There's some galactic alphabet inscriptions I made, but no אמת.

I guess it's not Hebrew golemancy.

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:43 PM

okay because removing א would turn them off

makes Truth into Death

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:44 PM

I really don't want them to turn off since they're, you know, sapient.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:44 PM

armsmaster may disagree depending on how this goes

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 15-Jan-21 11:44 PM

"Are you my dad?"

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:44 PM

Uh

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:44 PM

aw

a baby

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:45 PM

you may wanna prep to talk him down with anime thinking time

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:45 PM

Yeah. Good idea.

Uh, he's not sure how to respond to the fact that the AI wants him to be their daddy.

Wow, I could've worded that better.

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:46 PM

that's not an ai that's iron blocks and a pumpkin

that turned into a person

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:46 PM

Yeah, point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:46 PM

im not sure if thats better or worse

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:46 PM

Well, it's an AI from his perspective, tbf.

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:46 PM

you frosty the snow man'd this shit (edited)

you could probably artificially make it

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:47 PM

Oh, that's an idea.

I am kinda worried about how fragile snow golems are.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:47 PM

why is there no wikihow for this incredibly specific situation

can you upconvert a snow golem to an ice golem

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:48 PM

Maybe if I knew more than the bare minimum of Golemancy...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:48 PM

fuck

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:48 PM

Ah well.

I've probably created enough life for one day.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:49 PM

i feel like im playing just keep talking and nobody explodes and i dropped the guide

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:49 PM

Isn't that just life, though?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:49 PM

no, normally someone else has like half the guide and you have approximately half and hope thats enough

then it turns out the bomb has 3 new modules

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:50 PM

Yeah, that's accurate.

So uh

Actually sapient golem. What do we do with this situation?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:50 PM

actually sapient golem

you wanna de-escalate as hard as possible first and try to slip in somewhere that this was not even remotely planned and he still seems to be adjusting to the environment

im not sure what prt rules on sapient creations are but i doubt its good

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:51 PM

I wish I could check in anime thinking time.

Forge? Don't suppose you could help there?

Forge BOT 15-Jan-21 11:52 PM

No.

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:52 PM

Welp.

I guess I'll uh. Try to calm things down.

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:52 PM

can they make more of themselves because that's there biggest worry

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:53 PM

No, only I know how to make more.

They can't reproduce or anything, either.

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:53 PM

largely fine

but the next time you do this you know you're making a person, and you didn't before this moment

so i guess they'll pass Cuddles off as another C53 to stop panic

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:54 PM

Okay. Good.

Welp. Time to bite the bullet.

Anime thinking time off.

"Uh, Armsmaster, this is Captain Cuddlesworth. Captain Cuddlesworth, Armsmaster."

if it makes you feel better Earth Silverbell is way wackier

"You made a sapient AI. By accident."

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:57 PM

I have no idea if that makes me feel better or not.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 15-Jan-21 11:57 PM

its probably more power construct than ai

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:57 PM

with a pumpkin

and iron blocks

its not really an ai in that sense

they are however a synthetically created intelligence

Austin BOT 15-Jan-21 11:58 PM

"Well, they're not really a proper AI? They don't run on a computer or anything. More like, uh, exotic physics."

"Maybe 'synthetic intelligence' would fit better? They're just a metal person."

Armsmaster BOT 15-Jan-21 11:59 PM

"And you created one by accident."

Gazzer 15-Jan-21 11:59 PM

don't tell the baby they're an accident

its rude

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 12:00 AM

armsmaster mightve noticed that your power doesnt come with comprehensive understanding of every aspect of it - maybe point that out

that combined with a bad thinker read = accidentally sapient being

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:01 AM

It's not quite that.

The Captain was meant to be non-sapient. The runes I carved on him shouldn't have let him become sapient.

Actually, have iron golems always had purple eyes? I swear they're meant to have red eyes or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 12:02 AM

something fucked with the captain to make him sapient? ...its your eden power fucking with things

calling it here

you have glowing purple eyes, he has glowing purple eyes

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:03 AM

That could be it.

Uh, Forge?

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 12:04 AM

The user's shard is 'making shit up as it goes along', as one might say. It assumed golemancy was part of its given powerset and connected with the Captain.

The Captain should now share all of the user's Eden powers, including the shred of [Host Mimicry]/Balance they have.

(Metaknowledge on [Shards] was not sent.)

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:06 AM

Welp.

Forge censored itself again.

tl;dr shits fucked but it was your power, now cuddlesworth is gonna have all your eden powers

plural

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:08 AM

Well, at least that's something.

"Just consulted my thinker power. I think one of my other powers messed up and overstepped of its own accord."

Armsmaster BOT 16-Jan-21 12:09 AM

"Will it happen again?"

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:09 AM

Uh. Forge?

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 12:10 AM

Unknown. Signs point to no for other powers, and yes for golemancy.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:10 AM

Right.

"Probably only for, uh, if I try to make another golem. Other tech I make should be fine."

Armsmaster BOT 16-Jan-21 12:11 AM

"Should be."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 12:12 AM

given the nature of you getting more powers, who even knows

powers are weird, one more card can send the whole tower cascading

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:13 AM

"My power's specific words were 'Unknown. Signs point to no for other powers, and yes for golemancy.' No idea about future powers, though."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 12:13 AM

just imagine your eden power as an overworked intern making shit up as it goes along, if that bit wasnt uncensored

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:14 AM

Is he cleared to know about power mechanics and stuff?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 12:15 AM

oh good point

nobody is at the moment i think

this isnt a judgement call to be made at 6 am

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:15 AM

Yeah.

Armsmaster BOT 16-Jan-21 12:16 AM

the captain is precognitive

...possibly

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:25 AM

defiant is an alias armsmaster uses later

thats not a big stretch given the nickname

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 12:26 AM

(Metaknowledge about [Defiant] was n... ... Fine.)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 12:28 AM

so yeah unless there was some level of precog or meta knowledge or Something involved in that

makes no sense for the captain to say that

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:29 AM

Welp.

I now have a precognitive golem kid.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 12:30 AM

this does leave me feeling optimistic about you getting your memories back if it is meta knowledge

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:31 AM

Yeah. If Cpt. C got his sapience from my Eden power, and I'm not a precognitive by way of that, then it's probably my old memories.

I did 'Tell someone about Worm', according to my achievements.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 12:32 AM

honestly im shocked 'have a kid' wasnt an achievement but i get the feeling the forge is as shocked as we are about this

cause its just like.

wot

Fucking thinkers.

common sense, the most powerful thinker ability

In other words, what else do I need to do to get it, if there is one?

Armsmaster BOT 16-Jan-21 12:40 AM

"'Dadfiant'?"

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 16-Jan-21 12:41 AM

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 12:42 AM

Milestone achieved!

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:42 AM

Oh! There we go.

Huh. Tribal stuff was the opposite power to what I was expecting.

Totems and rituals.

Totems are basically just beacons but made of wood.

Rituals let me do a bunch of things, like change the weather or grow plants in the area.

It's all pretty low-level, but it's nice to have.

I kinda want low-level stuff at the moment.

So. How the fuck am I going to explain dancing around a totem pole as not magic?

What's it called? I know enough about it by now, I think.

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 12:53 AM

Totemic.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:56 AM

Good to know.

Ugh. I just got it, and now I want to experiment with it.

...Just one totem, maybe?

Hhhh

Austin So. How the fuck am I going to explain dancing around a totem pole as not magic?

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 01:27 AM

You just created life with a pumpkin and pieces of iron and you are worried of calling it magic ?

At this point do it , no reason to hide it

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 03:27 AM

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:02 AM

I guess I could pretend it's a power thing? My main issue here is that if I called it magic, everyone would think I'm nuts.

And, uh, I'm not sure how to feel about this ship.

Armsmaster BOT 16-Jan-21 10:05 AM

"...'Captain Cuddlesworth'."

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 10:07 AM

It is just a ship, it is not like people who actually matter think those are serious or have any impact on actual decisions

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:07 AM

Yeah, point.

I've run into some cape fanfiction already, so I'm not sure shipping is something I'll be able to avoid.

It hasn't fucked anyone else over afaik, so it'll probably be fine.

Just kinda weird.

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 10:10 AM

tbh I think Cuddles is the shipper here

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:12 AM

I mean, do they know better yet, tbf?

We're the first two people they saw, so they kinda just started assuming things.

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 10:15 AM

still super cute

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 10:28 AM

So, how are things going with the shadow stalker and taylor situation ? Any progress ?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:30 AM

No idea about Taylor, but I know Shadow Stalker is being looked into.

She hasn't been called out on anything yet, though.

I guess we need the manpower for the situation with Bakuda.

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 10:32 AM

bombs suck

and Shadow's power is great for Search and Rescue

if only she wasn't like, a deeply broken person raging against the world

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:36 AM

I can only hope she goes to therapy after all of this.

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 10:37 AM

Hmmm, i just had a thought, if totems work like waypoints, is there a limit to how many you can have, and are you the only person able to use them ?

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 10:38 AM

wait a minute

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:38 AM

Totems are more like beacons than waypoints. No special teleportation properties, but they bestow special effects on everyone within a certain radius.

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 10:39 AM

can you create a imortality totem ?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:39 AM

'Fraid not. They're pretty much just for potion effects.

The radius isn't very big either, so I'd probably limit it to places that are used more often. Hallways with a lot of traffic, for instance.

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 10:46 AM

no reason not to put it all over

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 11:05 AM

I think your next step should be to try and find out as much as possible about this the Gamer guy, we know nothing about them and need to get info as fast as possible, after that you should distribute totems all over the base at strategic points. Then you should Experiment with your powers a bit, first, are you able to craft in your inventory, can you build a crafting table and other similar minecraft objects, can you use other animals for totems that are not described in the mod, what happens if you craft a pickaxe and start to mine etc. You also need to try out the rituals and dances, that is all stuff that needs to be tested.

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 11:11 AM

The wands are already a game changer for the prt

The healing one will prob help panacea a lot

And for PR

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 11:23 AM

So, i just realized that the unenhanced effect of the totems is a circle with a 5 meter radius, which is kind of big, that is a area of about 31.5 m2, I have question for the forge, how high does the effect go ? Is it a sphere with a 5 meter radius around the totem base or does it go indefinitely high ?

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 11:33 AM

Does the totem have the same size limit as in the game, or can you increase it indefinitely ? Now I have another question how much minecraft physics do you actually have can you place two things on top of ich other and then remove the bottom one with you inventory without making the other fall, what happens if you place something on a wall with your inventory etc.

These questions and more will be answered in the next episode of Stoneforge starring Austin as Terraria and the Power Testing Team of the PRT ENE.

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 11:39 AM

Don't think there's a hight limit

Just that you know it's a actually toten

Max six heads with each head being around 1 meter depending on what a block is

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 11:43 AM

Hmm, i think totems are not as big as blocks they are slimmer

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 11:44 AM

Slimmer yea

But the size stays

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:44 AM

if there's no height limit, could just drop em underwater under the rig. pain in the ass to go deep sea diving for stuff like that

would be a problem come leviathan but

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 11:46 AM

Well yeah but the area of effect is around 5m

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 11:46 AM

I just had a thought, Austin is a 1 cubic meter tinker, everything he builds is at most 1 cubic meter big, anything he builds that is bigger is made out of multiple sections each fitting in a cubic meter

(edited)

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:56 AM

My greatest invention: The half-slab. I can fit two of them in a 1m^3 space!

I'll go down the list real quick:

-I'll look into this "Gamer" person as much as I can, but they're currently not a priority unless they join the ABB or something similar.

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 11:58 AM

can you

..... make a circle ?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:58 AM

-I'll put in an order for some logs when I come out of anime thinking time.

-I can make circles. My power is more like Minecraft stuff adapted to work in real life.

-Crafting works more like actual tinkering. I can't insta-craft with a crafting table. To make a crafting table, I'd need a leather covering and iron for tools and stuff, and then all it would be is a bench with a leather covering and tools.

-I didn't get the information for how to make other animal totems, but Totemic is simple enouh that I could probably infer how to do it. I'd just need some R&D time.

-Tools are just normal, everyday tools. The only interesting thing about them is the strange durability mechanics.

-Ceremonies are next on the list after Totems to try out.

-Totems have a radius of 5m at sea level, and expand upwards into the atmosphere.

-Totems can only be up to 6m high - a base and five animals.

-Minecraft physics doesn't work - no floating blocks, which sucks, but that's how it be sometimes.

-Totems work fine underwater, and with my chunk claiming power, they'd be protected against non-human interference.

Next time on Terraria: The power testing guys jump me after I do a ceremony! No idea how I'll pass that off as tinkertech.

I mean, it's a skill not a power, but still.

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 12:06 PM

you know , they might glue the totens on the botton of the rig

It's a good drug to have, which I probably shouldn't be endorsing as a member of the Protectorate, but eh.

I'm so glad I have anime thinking time.

I can go off on tangents whenever I like.

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 12:26 PM

For example, do you have a ritual that creates sunshine ? If so that could be really helpful during a leviathan fight.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 12:28 PM

I do.

I'll have to test it when that happens.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 12:29 PM

Thats great

Dubiously Motivated Pika 16-Jan-21 12:38 PM

(Brb)

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 12:40 PM

I have a question for the forge, do the mods give Austin simply the ability to do the stuff described in them, do the mods simply modify the laws of reality or do the laws of reality stay the same and the mod sjust teaches them to do the stuff? If it is the third or second it means they can teach others how to do it, if it is the first it means Austin is a special little snowflake.

What happens if you make the totems bigger or smaller, does the radius of the effect change ? I think you need a list for stuff to try out with your powers just so we do not lose the overview.

Because you could create pocket totems you can carry around with yourself and stuff.

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 01:25 PM

The laws of reality were permanently altered when the user entered the world. They will remain altered if the user were to die and not respawn. Most mods contain knowledge that can be taught, though some don't - Minimap, Inventory, Morph...

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 01:25 PM

I don't know how to feel about that.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 01:26 PM

Great

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 01:27 PM

Oh

Thats super nice

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 01:27 PM

Each totem piece being 1m high is the optimal height - smaller pieces means the effects diminish exponentially, and larger pieces diminish even faster as they get bigger.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 01:27 PM

Well good to know

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 01:27 PM

The laws of reality were altered when I showed up.

How many of the Boston wards do you know about?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 02:41 PM

weld and hunch

there was never any mention of new ones though, and we did get a peek on their side of things

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:41 PM

Is that it? Because she could just be someone you don't know about.

I mean, I guess?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 02:42 PM

we had focused on weld with that peek

he is the leader over there yeah?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:43 PM

Yeah, that's right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 02:43 PM

itd be weird if the leader didnt even spare a thought to the newbie, and our look at him was far more invasive than this chatroom is (edited)

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:44 PM

Right, I'll mark Diamond down alongside Gamer.

Should I check the PRT files on her for you guys?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 02:44 PM

would appreciate it, thank you

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:47 PM

Brute 4, Tinker 6 [Master 2, Thinker 2, Brute 6], Striker 2, Changer 3.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 02:47 PM

...are they also a C53?

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 02:47 PM

Don’t think so

Changer (edited)

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:48 PM

No, they have their memories and everything.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 02:49 PM

thats... definitely a lot of power rankings for a natural cape i feel. especially high natural brute rating for a tinker

and theyre probably keeping things under wraps too

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:49 PM

She's a standard strength/toughness brute, a shapeshifter, and seems to have some sort of healing touch. A stranger rating is also pending, apparently.

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:50 PM

Prob a bag grab

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 02:50 PM

yeah no at best shes a cluster trigger

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:50 PM

With good luck

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:50 PM

She also made a shield that she can summon.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 02:51 PM

i wish i was a bigger nerd so i could identify where all this stuff originates from

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:51 PM

.... I think she isn’t normal

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 02:51 PM

Fen emiya?

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:51 PM

Like you normal

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:51 PM

You think her powers would originate from a work of fiction too?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 02:51 PM

yeah

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 02:51 PM

Ye

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 02:51 PM

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:51 PM

Mother fucker.

It is.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 02:52 PM

Maybe

Malaki 16-Jan-21 02:52 PM

...that is distinctly SU yes

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:52 PM

Huh that might be a problem

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 02:52 PM

Oh

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:52 PM

Crystal stuff is high level

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 02:52 PM

Which gem then?

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:52 PM

U think all of them

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 02:52 PM

so yeah the Gamer is a generic Gamer i think

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:52 PM

Gem tinker

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:52 PM

Pink Diamond, afaik.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 02:52 PM

A Bismuth? (edited)

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:53 PM

Powerful brute, healing 'touch'...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 02:53 PM

if they went villain, its probably because Gamer's Mind suppresses extreme emotions

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 02:53 PM

Oh fuck

Pink

I hope she isn’t a bitch

Hours, Minutes, Seconds so yeah the Gamer is a generic Gamer i think

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:53 PM

Hey at least there isn’t any cultivatiors around

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 02:53 PM

you jinxed it liege

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:53 PM

Okay, so we have a Pink Diamond/SU tinker and a... Gamer?

Spiritual Liege Hey at least there isn’t any cultivatiors around

Malaki 16-Jan-21 02:53 PM

We doomed thnx m8

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:54 PM

Wait, like Han Jihan The Gamer?

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:54 PM

Well young master

Time to cultivate

gamer fanfics are popular so im not really shocked

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 02:54 PM

True

I hope he isn’t hostile

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:56 PM

Welp.

Let's hope that they're just random people and not, like, nuts.

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:56 PM

Yeah

But hey

Have you read any gamer fanfic in the net before you left ?

They are never normal

Its the gamer effect, always thinking 100% effective with gamer minds does stuff to your brain

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:57 PM

I guess it begs the question of how close it stays to the original The Gamer webtoon.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 02:59 PM

Would the auction exist here as well?

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:59 PM

Prob not

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:59 PM

I hope the fuck not.

Spiritual Liege 16-Jan-21 02:59 PM

Maybe a blanket parahuman grey market ?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 02:59 PM

Wait. Would Lucky Cubes give me The Gamer and Steven Universe stuff?

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 02:59 PM

I wanna say yes

because its attached to the local metaphysics

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:00 PM

True

Pray for it

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 03:00 PM

Yes. Lucky Blocks contain anything from any local powers.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:00 PM

Welp. No idea if that's good or bad.

Anyway, the enchanting table is done.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:03 PM

Good

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:03 PM

I had to write out an entire book's worth of galactic alphabet to get it to work, but it's operational now.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:03 PM

Time to kill some fish

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:03 PM

It powers up from being surrounded by books, no matter the type.

Yeah, I'll enchant a fishing rod and put down a little pool of water.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:04 PM

No I mean for xp (edited)

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:04 PM

I made an infinite-water-source bucket, and I'm hoping to get some lava to make a cobblestone generator with at some point.

Fishing does give xp too.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:05 PM

Thats a great

And good to know

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 03:05 PM

'A successful reel-in also spawns an experience orb worth 1–6 experience points at the location of the player doing the fishing.' - Minecraft Wiki

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:06 PM

hm. i wonder if you can make an auto fisher

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:07 PM

Yeah, that would be real nice.

I have Luck of the Sea I, Lure II, and Unbreaking I on the rod, so that's going to be a good amount of fish.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:08 PM

prt's gonna be serving fish sandwiches for days

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:09 PM

Yeah, sounds about right.

And I'm going to help cook all the fish, for the extra exp.

I have an iron furnace and I'm not afraid to use it!

Fishing is actually really relaxing.

...Uh.

I fished up some Rotten Flesh.

Is it actually, you know...

Zombie flesh?

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:13 PM

Ye

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:13 PM

Oh no.

This is going straight into my inventory, and then straight into the incinerator.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:16 PM

good

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:16 PM

No idea if zombification is a curse or a virus, but I'm not taking a single chance.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:19 PM

Yep

Malaki 16-Jan-21 03:20 PM

Plus some curses spread

So it might as well treat it like a virus

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:21 PM

Oh, I just noticed that I've been fishing for ages. Dang.

My rod is on it's way out.

On the upside, I got an enchanted book and a saddle. Like, a nice, proper saddle made of good leather.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:22 PM

Good

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:22 PM

I'll have to research the book to see what's in it.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:22 PM

Can you make animal golems?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:23 PM

Only Snow and Iron golems as of yet.

Okay, two pieces of rotten flesh and one bone have gone into the incinerator, and I have like 50 fish to cook.

Well, I got 53 fish in total, but one is a puffer fish.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:24 PM

You could distill it’s poison (edited)

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:25 PM

I mean, it's just a normal puffer fish, and I have no idea how to distill poison yet.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:25 PM

hey, could send out a message to some of your coworkers who wants a fish sandwich

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:25 PM

I might just keep it in case I want to make a water breathing potion when I get potions.

I was thinking of giving the cooked fish to the cafeteria.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:26 PM

also a good idea

...hey, i just remembered something

some minecraft versions didnt require you eating food

you have ate, yeah?

side note im kind of tired lol

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:27 PM

Yeah, I've been eating.

I eat to restore stamina and regenerate, but otherwise, I don't really need to.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:28 PM

noted

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:28 PM

Also, I do like eating.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:29 PM

yeah thats fair

just one of those things thats good to know in a prolonged emergency

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:31 PM

Oh, I plan to keep a stock of food on me at all times.

I don't need to drink now, but I still like to drink soda and stuff.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:31 PM

...i just had a thought: if you finished the challenger at fugly bob's, would that count as an achievement

considering stuff like 'meet the heroes' can be an achievement i wouldnt be surprised

youre running off to bait the power testing guys into getting you one arent you

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:34 PM

Are you some sort of thinker?

I think Forge said that a bit ago.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:34 PM

He is

Ah well.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:36 PM

damn

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:36 PM

Time to pay

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:36 PM

I could still try it, I'd just need to pay the $50 upfront.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:37 PM

...could you sell the fish to the cafeteria for the 50 bucks

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:37 PM

On the other hand, that does mean I can order it as takeaways.

I have $100 or so worth of change right now, actually.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:37 PM

oh

well that works out

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:38 PM

Well, $99.75, after I spent a quarter on the payphone. Which I didn't even need to do, since I was calling 911.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:38 PM

you should invite assault and maybe dauntless to see you try this

Malaki 16-Jan-21 03:38 PM

...is the mending enchantment available?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:38 PM

...do any of your powers speed up your eating speed

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:38 PM

I could use some fresh air. I'll put down some waypoints around the city in the meantime.

I looked through the enchanted book I got, but it doesn't have Mending. I guess I need to fish more.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 03:40 PM

Or make an enchanting table

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:40 PM

Everyone else is on patrol right now, sadly. I guess there is a bombing attack going on.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:40 PM

ah, yeah. shit

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:41 PM

And I can't use my enchanting table to give something mending. I don't know how.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:41 PM

you need an anvil to do that

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:41 PM

I think you could only get it as a 'treasure enchantment' in the base game?

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 03:41 PM

True

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:42 PM

yea

wait

Malaki 16-Jan-21 03:52 PM

Same with ivory psimetal (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:52 PM

could you make psimetal from actual ebony

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 03:52 PM

or irvory

cause ivory is just bones

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:53 PM

Nah, they're called ebony and ivory, but they're actually coal and quartz derivatives.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 03:54 PM

Yup

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:54 PM

know the chemical composition of the ebony? cause converting some coal in lab conditions to it could work out

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 03:54 PM

can you describe them well enough that that gem tinker could make the quartz one

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:54 PM

kinda hesitant about the quartz cause shatterbird

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 03:54 PM

Not only that, but I'd need gold to even make a CAD that can create ebony and ivory, and it would need to be in the End, which I can't get to yet. No idea how to make them outside of those conditions.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 03:54 PM

Its specifically nether quartz tho

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 03:55 PM

you are an enderman technically speaking

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:00 PM

I have no idea. I mean, I already have a bunch of stuff locked out of my current mods.

I'd assume I'd just be unable to do it.

Uh, what's the state of Chicago in the original timeline?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 04:03 PM

chicago's relatively ok if i recall at this point in time, i think

Malaki 16-Jan-21 04:04 PM

Wat worm or our earth?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:04 PM

Worm.

Because a very powerful villain just attacked Chicago.

An Alexandria package, blaster, and shaker.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 04:06 PM

...lazer eyes?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:06 PM

Energy blasts.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 04:06 PM

From where? Hands, mouth?

Hands.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 04:07 PM

How are they a shaker?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:07 PM

He can also turn inanimate objects into steel.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 04:07 PM

...FMA?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:07 PM

Not clothes or personal equipment, but anything else is fair game.

Uh, his range was 'all of Chicago'.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 04:08 PM

No wait not with brute and flight

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:08 PM

Yeah. He's basically Alexandria but with energy blasts and steel transmutation instead of a thinker power.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 04:09 PM

color of energy blasts?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:10 PM

Metallic.

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 04:10 PM

this ive never heard of

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 04:10 PM

ok, so tv show or video games, or novels...

probably an anime given metallic energy blasts

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:10 PM

He was heard praising someone named 'Calamity', which doesn't sound very good.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 04:11 PM

calamity is probably bastion-based if uncreative names continue

either that or breath of the wild calamity ganon

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 04:18 PM

well theres the brute rating that's worth alexandria package labelling

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:18 PM

At least Strider arrived to take over my CADs.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 04:18 PM

it has to be something relatively anime or superhero-y

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:18 PM

Welp. He's a fucking Trump too.

He just touched someone for half a minute and they got powers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 04:19 PM

...naruto?

i know in jumpchain the ability to give someone powers unlocks after going to naruto

ah

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:20 PM

fuck, i hate rwby

So now all of Chicago has gone dark.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 04:20 PM

No naruto you cant make others into people with chakra without having sage of six paths chakra

...Bleach? Did he have a sword?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 04:21 PM

theyre gonna call eidolon down to murder this guy, id imagine the kill order is already being drafted

either that or birdcage his ass but you dont make city-scale superpowers without becoming an s-class threat

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:21 PM

Oh yeah, they're sending in the Triumvirate.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 04:22 PM

So no sword?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:22 PM

He can make his energy blasts into energy swords? But that's about it.

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 04:22 PM

the fuck is this guy

like

someone who got the Worm Coya

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:23 PM

He just has a generic bodysuit-and-cape costume with a faceless helmet.

No clue.

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 04:23 PM

Cause like so far these are all the powers in that broken v.1 Worm Jump

all those OP powers

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:24 PM

I have no frame of reference for those, but I hope the fuck he doesn't.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 04:24 PM

...wat if he has Eidolon from that CYOA

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 04:24 PM

that literally doesnt make sense

energy blasts into swords is too anime for worm

power manipulation could do it, sure, but who the fuck grabs power manipulation to wreck the world?

Malaki 16-Jan-21 04:25 PM

Transforming shit into metal along with this shit doesnt match up

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:25 PM

There's no, like, matter manipulation in that CYOA thing?

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 04:26 PM

yes there is

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 04:26 PM

oh the powers are broad enough to do it, its just that this is weirdly specific

also, i wouldnt be dumb enough to burn all my power manipulation charges on a rando

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:27 PM

Okay, so maybe not that CYOA thing.

Well, I guess we won't be able to help with everything.

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 04:27 PM

yeah you're way more street level

Malaki 16-Jan-21 04:27 PM

And it isnt Fate/Stay multiverse

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:28 PM

maybe some semblance and dust bullshit too

energy manipulation with a side of blade manifestation

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 04:48 PM

The fight against the Calamity group is going badly.

On one hand, we know that Calamity is the power granter, not Steelheart.

On the other hand, there's now another cape on their side named Firefight. A pyrokinetic flying blaster.

Also, the whole Triumvirate are there and they're losing.

They can't go all-out because of the civilians, but the Calamities can.

I think everyone is a little terrified of Steelheart now.

If this is Marvel...wait that is DC

so its not marvel

the names are a red herring then

Malaki 16-Jan-21 05:40 PM

Just a Marvel Fan

probably dc if not marvel

This is a mess.

can the lucky blocks sources confirm/deny?

It might be

that you have to make some

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:40 PM

and is legend replying to the friend request?

Malaki 16-Jan-21 05:40 PM

Worse than a mess, I'd rather deal with an Oblivion crisis again

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 05:40 PM

to play the gatcha and give us more points of info

All Minecraft physics editing was done at once.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 05:43 PM

...can you make a nether portal and see if you get closer

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 05:43 PM

Standard messaging? What does that mean?

Try morse idk

Can't go to other dimensions aside from other Earths.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 05:44 PM

Is he in a human zoo?

Standard Mine Together chats do not have the interdimensional cohesion to contact Parahuman codenamed Legend.

well, shit.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 05:46 PM

No fucking clue how to do that.

Which of those mentioned communication methods count as 'standard'?

Hard to explain Omnipotent something or other set this up (edited)

One of my powers is to get into contact with people, even ones in other dimensions.

he can make 'chatrooms' with one of his many powers that can contact damn near anyone

there are many details of his power that have gone unsaid due to the legal ramifications

not to mention ethical

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 05:51 PM

He's introduces himself. What about the rest of you? Who are you?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:51 PM

we're a bunch of people so far out of the context of your earth it aint even funny

Malaki 16-Jan-21 05:51 PM

Just some shmuck giving him advice

U also want my social mister rainbow man?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:51 PM

for instance, we know about cauldron, case-53s, the apocalypse, etc

we're part of his power

but saying "I hear voices and people" sounds crazy

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:52 PM

oh come on legends a part of cauldron

at least in technicality

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 05:53 PM

I saw the message about something not being sent. Do certain messages not go through?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:53 PM

yeah some of our stuff gets censored by austin's power

presumably to make things 'fair'

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 05:53 PM

Ah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:53 PM

and not break him with overwhelming amounts of info

we know about the group the triumvirate is in though

Malaki 16-Jan-21 05:53 PM

Some things that arent common knowledge or already known by Austin

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 05:54 PM

So he didn't see the message about Cauldron?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:54 PM

oh, didnt know that got through to you

yeah he didnt

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 05:54 PM

(Knowledge on [Cauldron] was not sent.)

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 05:54 PM

you'll have to say it person, if at all

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 05:54 PM

That last message from Legend was censored too, yeah.

Gazzer 16-Jan-21 05:54 PM

anyway can you describe where you are

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:54 PM

oh sick, i guess you count as one of us then

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 05:55 PM

Oh, so they're just censored. That's good to know.

I'm in Chicago right now, but none of the other heroes are here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:55 PM

can you name the world you're on?

its outside of the 10^80 that doormaker can reach

but austin can reach it

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 05:55 PM

I'm in another world?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:55 PM

yep

Malaki 16-Jan-21 05:55 PM

You were transported to an Earth not connected to the original multiverse

thats why your power isnt responding

out of bounds error

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 05:56 PM

My power is still working just fine, though. It wasn't before, but it is now.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 05:56 PM

Just need to BLJ your way back

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:56 PM

oh

i guess we count as a way back to earth bet then

your power getting routed through austins or smth

Malaki 16-Jan-21 05:57 PM

It's cause Austin is acting as a way for it to connect to you

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 05:57 PM

The system allows shard connections to outside context universes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:57 PM

...does that mean folks in our universe will start to trigger

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 05:57 PM

I see. It did come back when I got the 'friend request'.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 05:57 PM

Yay

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:58 PM

actually, what are doormaker and clairvoyant's names?

that might solve this issue

Malaki 16-Jan-21 05:58 PM

You need to get to a library and look up Bloodhaven

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 05:58 PM

Only powers that are already connected to hosts in other worlds can access other worlds, and only the ones they need to.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:59 PM

damn

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 05:59 PM

I'm looking around, but all the libraries are turned to steel.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:59 PM

head over to new york?

Malaki 16-Jan-21 05:59 PM

...wait, no birds either? (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:59 PM

chicago is likely booby trapped to hell and back

Malaki 16-Jan-21 05:59 PM

Cant hear any animals?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 05:59 PM

its what id do if i had my own personal planet

and wanted to launch an attack on a whole ass city

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 06:00 PM

I flew into the sky, and only Chicago was turned to steel.

There's still other people here, and animals and plantlife.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 06:01 PM

What? No this doesnt make sense, who tf does this twice

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 06:02 PM

Many people

Mostly crazy ones

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 06:02 PM

someone planning to set up a multiversal empire

Malaki 16-Jan-21 06:02 PM

Unless this is like D&D plane bullshit

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 06:02 PM

There's a big steel castle on what used to be a lake.

Lucky_Plucky21 16-Jan-21 06:02 PM

Yeah

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 06:03 PM

how does your breaker form work? are you able to partially go into it, or is it a 100% on/off thing?

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 06:03 PM

There's also Nightstalker's cloud of shadows over the city right now, even though it's day.

Malaki 16-Jan-21 06:04 PM

...this doesnt make sense, unless this is a mirror universe, any signs that are backwards?

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 06:04 PM

It's a breaker state, so it's on/off. I can go faster or slower in it, but if I go faster, it's harder to think clearly.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 06:04 PM

austin, are there any earths named 'earth steelheart?'

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 06:04 PM

Not that I can see.

To be fair, 'Earth Cauldron' is named 'Earth Omega'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 06:05 PM

alright, point

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 06:05 PM

Maybe you could talk to the people there?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 06:06 PM

you should probably fly over to boston or where brockton should be first (edited)

austin is a multiverse traveller

the power hasnt been used yet but its a thing

its also probably the only shot we have at getting you back

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 06:07 PM

Well, I still don't know which Earth you're on.

@Forge can I go to that Earth if I know the right name?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 06:07 PM

isnt like that info wouldnt be as accessible if not moreso elsewehre

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 06:07 PM

Yes.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 06:08 PM

So I'd just need to trawl through every single person on every single world.

Dubiously Motivated Pika 16-Jan-21 06:08 PM

(Brb, I need to cook dinner.)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 06:08 PM

legend could also tell you his name, then you just need to trawl through over 10^80 worlds (edited)

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 07:59 PM

I could also go to Chicago and see which one/s are made of steel, I guess.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:00 PM

legend can move at something approaching the speed of light, so

one of those are easier than the other, since we havent seen how you jumping worlds works

it might just default you to brockton bay's area

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:01 PM

Good point.

@Forge is there any way to speed this up?

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 08:02 PM

Information on Sponsorship Austin's current abilities is not available.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:02 PM

I don't know if that's a yes or a no.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:02 PM

its an 'you are currently having an information blackout'

this is probably because of that slug achievement im betting

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:03 PM

Fuck.

The thing is, 10^80 is a huge fucking number.

No way I can do it on my own.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:04 PM

all of them are named, yeah?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:04 PM

They are.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:04 PM

so, best thing that can be done is legend either finding out what the world is named, or naming it himself, then you finding that name

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:06 PM

Let's hope that works.

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:06 PM

How might I find the name?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:07 PM

libraries, internet

i doubt theres still wifi over in the city of steel given so much shits been transmogrified

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:08 PM

Good point. I'll try to find another city.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:08 PM

still recommend you head in boston's direction, if you get your bearings

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:08 PM

Steelheart just showed up

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:08 PM

take the fight to the upper atmosphere

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:08 PM

He moved dimensions?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:09 PM

one of the wards in new york, flechette, may be able to help deal with this guy

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:09 PM

He was unmasked, for some reason.

I suppose he didn't expect that I'd show up.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:10 PM

probably best to obliterate him

he'll just keep getting stronger otherwise

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:10 PM

Is Nightstalker's darkness still around Earth Bet's Chicago?

Because it's here too.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:10 PM

Yeah, still there.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:11 PM

okay, so this guy has the power to be omnidimensional

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:11 PM

Fuck.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:11 PM

either that or his powers are affecting the whole fucking multiverse

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:11 PM

He didn't follow me too high, thankfully.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:11 PM

he still needs air

can you curve lasers around to force him up?

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:12 PM

He's disengaged for now.

I'm over Nightstalker's darkness, and he stayed below it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:13 PM

he might be about to take potshots

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:13 PM

I'll be on guard. If he can, then so can I.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:13 PM

and your potshots home

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:15 PM

He seems to have some sort of thinker power, at least that's what Alexandria thought. If he attacks, I'll attack back, but he could have some sort of plan.

We fought back on Earth Bet, so he's seen me fight.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:15 PM

same sort of thinker power austin and now you have

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:16 PM

That is to say, a line of communication with people who have out-of-context knowledge.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:16 PM

presumably uncensored, since the running theory is the memory wipe austin got has lead to our censorship

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:16 PM

Right. I'll be careful anyway.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:17 PM

hm. this is probably a ridiculously dangerous idea but im wondering if we can somehow bait scion into dealing with steelheart

i know the one line of communication he has

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:18 PM

That doesn't sound like a great idea, especially if powers can't reach this world.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:18 PM

point

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:18 PM

Dammit, how the hell is Steelheart so powerful so soon?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:19 PM

time travel, gaming the system, luck of the draw

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:19 PM

Are there variations on starting power levels?

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 08:19 PM

Steelheart's power is balanced in other ways.

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:20 PM

It's been a few minutes, and Steelheart still hasn't fired on me.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:22 PM

i dont know what to make of that

probably does want to disengage and heal up - there are powers at play that hide the damage a person takes and lets them operate at full functionality until it kills them

he could be trying to recover right now

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:25 PM

That's a good point.

I'm considering going back in, if only for information.

That castle on Lake Michigan wasn't built in just a few hours.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:26 PM

you didnt see any people-shaped steel statues, yeah?

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:27 PM

There's a red spot in the sky. No, Steelheart is Manton-limited.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:27 PM

MOVE

red spot in the sky is ABSOLUTELY someone coming to wreck shit one way or another and if they share steelheart's power level (edited)

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:27 PM

They're in the atmosphere, and they're not getting closer.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:28 PM

i really, really dont trust that

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:28 PM

I think that's the International Space Station.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:28 PM

i cant help but think orbital laser cannon

get out of there man

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:28 PM

I think it's been there the whole time. I don't see any lasers on the bottom, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:29 PM

why is it red??

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:29 PM

I don't know.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:29 PM

Think that's Calamity?

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:29 PM

It could fit.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:30 PM

in that case, you'd be able to take it down

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:30 PM

Not without knowing what it is.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:30 PM

yeah, agreed

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:30 PM

It's staying passive for now, I don't see a reason to attack it on suspicion only.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:31 PM

how good is your vision? i know some blasters have secondary powers to help them handle the glare and/or see further

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:31 PM

Very good. It's how I can make it out at all.

I'm still in Earth

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:31 PM

you ever test how high up your power functions at?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:32 PM

Did you hit enter on the psychic keyboard too soon?

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:32 PM

I didn't know that could even happen.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:32 PM

neither did austin before

lol

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:32 PM

And no, I haven't gone too high.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:32 PM

well, time to see if you dont get info directed at you censored

your power is explicitly designed for space flight by the entity who had it before

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 08:33 PM

(Metaknowledge on [Eden] was not sent.)

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:33 PM

No, I can't see that.

dang it

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:33 PM

Me neither.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:34 PM

well, to put it in more personal terms, im pretty sure your power should do better up there than most others

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:34 PM

I don't need to breathe when I'm using my breaker state. I've actually theorized that it's meant for space flight, somehow.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:35 PM

your theory is correct

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:35 PM

You're very confident about that. I suppose that's the 'thinker' aspect of whatever this is.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:35 PM

Yeah, they know stuff.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:35 PM

yeah, we have a lot of knowledge on your world

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:36 PM

And they can't just say it or else it gets censored. It's annoying.

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:36 PM

I see.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:36 PM

it leads to us playing guessing games to get info out

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:36 PM

Trust me, it's irritating.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:36 PM

its universally irritating

its like playing charades to stop a s9 attack

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:37 PM

At least you have a way of getting the information across at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:37 PM

true that

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 08:37 PM

Anyway, are you planning to try Chicago again, or go to another city?

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:37 PM

I'm undecided.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:38 PM

chicago has a definite threat you'll probably have to face down if you go back down

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:38 PM

Steelheart didn't attack, so there's a chance I could get some answers out of him.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:39 PM

point, but theres a definite risk he could master you - we theorized earlier that there was some master/stranger influence in play with him or the people he has working for him

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:40 PM

I heard him talking to Nightstalker. He was cajoling him into helping.

I don't know if that constitutes a master power or not, but you're right, risking it might be a bad idea.

I'll look elsewhere.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:40 PM

point

i think we may also wanna let the prt know yall are in contact with each other via group chat, though maybe leave out the existance of

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:41 PM

Steelheart is coming up.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 08:41 PM

well

us

ah, fuck

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 08:41 PM

He's not attacking, though.

There are no heroes. Every single person who manifested powers — we call them Epics — turned out to be evil. Here, in the city once known as Chicago, an extraordinarily powerful Epic declared himself Emperor. Steelheart has the strength of ten men and can control the elements. It is said no bullet can harm him, no sword can split his skin, no explosion can burn him. He is invincible. It has been ten years. We live our lives as best we can. Nobody fights back . . . nobody but the Reckoners. A shadowy group of ordinary humans who spend their lives studying powerful Epics, finding their weaknesses, then assassinating them. My name is David Charleston. I’m not one of the Reckoners, but I intend to join them. I have something they need. Something precious, something incredible. Not an object, but an experience. I know his secret. I’ve seen Steelheart bleed.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 09:23 PM

Out of the Sanderson books I've heard of, Mistborn I'd maybe consider accepting as something 'popular enough'. Maybe Stormlight Archive too. But this?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 09:23 PM

Ten years ago, Calamity came. It was a burst in the sky that gave ordinary people extraordinary powers. The awed public started calling them Epics. Epics are no friends of man. With incredible gifts came the desire to rule. And to rule man, you must crush his will. Now, in what was once Chicago, an astonishingly powerful Epic named Steelheart has installed himself as emperor. Steelheart possesses the strength of ten men and can control the elements. It is said that no bullet can harm him, no sword can split his skin, and no fire can burn him. He is invincible. Nobody fights back . . . nobody but the Reckoners. A shadowy group of ordinary humans, the Reckoners spend their lives studying Epics, finding their weaknesses, and then assassinating them. And David wants in. When Steelheart came to Chicago, he killed David’s father. For years, like the Reckoners, David has been studying, and planning, and he has something they need. Not an object, but an experience. He has seen Steelheart bleed. And he wants revenge.

im gonna look up this twink's weakness

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 09:24 PM

Do it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 09:24 PM

Steelheart is the main antagonist in the first book of The Reckoners trilogy. He is a High Epic, which is an epic that cannot be killed using regular means. He took over the city of Chicago and renamed it Newcago, turning the whole city into steel, including part of Lake Michigan, where he then constructed his palace. Two years after Calamity affected certain people, when David was about seven years old, David witnessed him get grazed by a bullet from a gun David's father fired. The graze caused him to bleed, and David was the only one who survived after that to know about it. Steelheart had ruled over Newcago for ten years before being confronted by the Reckoners and David. During the final confrontation, David figured out Steelheart's weakness, allowing him to devise the plan that killed Steelheart. In "Firefight", David found some history on him: originally known as Paul Jackson, a track star in his high school years. however, he never received any scholarships due to his history of being a bully and responsible for injuring his teammates. Then, he worked as a factory nightwatch man. Also, he did some conspiracy forums where he complained about the way the country was running.

Invulnerability: Steelheart is extremely resistant to harm. Neither bullets nor Deathpoint's attacks could hurt him at all, and it is heavily implied the explosion that killed him wouldn't have been enough if it hadn't been for his weakness. He is not necessarily completely invulnerable; as nuclear blasts have killed other High Epics, they may have worked on him as well.

Can be harmed by anyone who does not fear him; in Steelheart, David's father managed to harm him for that reason. Steelheart could even harm himself because Steelheart did not fear himself. Steelheart later shot the gun that David rigged to blow up because David knew Steelheart's weakness.

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 09:26 PM

Ah. No wonder he opened so violently.

Does he have any master or trump powers?

We could get proper confirmation on how dangerous he really is.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 09:32 PM

Abilities Invulnerability: Steelheart is extremely resistant to harm. Neither bullets nor Deathpoint's attacks could hurt him at all, and it is heavily implied the explosion that killed him wouldn't have been enough if it hadn't been for his weakness. He is not necessarily completely invulnerable; as nuclear blasts have killed other High Epics, they may have worked on him as well. Enhanced Strength: Steelheart's strength is immense. However, a blow from him only causes extreme injury rather than instant death. Energy Creation: Steelheart can create and manipulate energy in his hands, using it as a weapon and launching it at his foes. Flight: Steelheart can fly. This seems to be a form of wind manipulation, but he does not use the wind offensively. Steel Transfersion: Steelheart can turn any material not near a living being to steel, at massive range. Steel insulates against this effect. Wind Manipulation: Steelheart can command the winds. He never used this ability offensively and barely used it in the book. Might have some relation to his flight. Possible Powers: Enhanced Memory: He appears to have an excellent memory as he remembers David from the Bank incident ten years ago when David was a kid Pain Durability: He might have some pain durability, as he didn't realize, at first, that he was grazed by a bullet.

Rustic is small-ish mod that mainly adds medieval-themed content to the game. It focuses on decoration and agriculture for now, but it branches out a bit as well. Roost: Craft a chicken catcher with an egg, a stick, and a feather. Use the catcher on a chicken to capture it and add it to your inventory.

roost seems like itd be more or less chicken based biotinkering for resources

itd solve some of the resource problems you're facing but i dont think anyone would be thrilled about it

wait no nvm

ty for the links!

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:29 PM

They do, thanks.

Okay, so Roost is basically just for chickens, but it'll help if I end up getting More Chickens.

Is More Chickens on the list?

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 10:31 PM

Information on c

Yeah, it's on the list.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:31 PM

if its a big list, it may not matter i think the automated system is trying to pick a fight with you

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 10:31 PM

Might as well give you that much.

List is a bit under 150 mods long at the moment.

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 10:32 PM

Soo, the wiki of the Reckoners says that firefight is not male but a projection pulled from a different universe by a women, like the women legend saw before being pulled into the reckoning universe. The links do not work for me

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:32 PM

ok, odds of getting more chickens is over 1/100

copy and paste em tiz

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:32 PM

Oh okay, so Firefight is the one with alternate universe powers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:33 PM

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:33 PM

Wait, but she only showed up after Steelheart gave her powers.

So how was Steelheart in the other world too?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:34 PM

hm

well, you did see legend say he was more cajoling them

so could be they were in the other universe

then just kina. left

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:34 PM

I mean, they were regular citizens until they got powers, right?

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 10:35 PM

Rustic seems like the better choice

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:35 PM

They've been identified and everything.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:35 PM

oh

if theyve been identified, then fuck

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:35 PM

Yeah, Rustic has some sort of alchemy in it. I mean, Totemic already gives a potion-like effect with medicine bags, and those are reusable.

I guess it's short term gain vs potential long term gain.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:37 PM

it doesnt look like roost gives anything you couldnt make conventionally

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:37 PM

The world Legend was sent to seems like the original Reckoners universe.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:37 PM

chicken roosts exist

honestly im looking at chickens and it seems like you 100% dont need roosts to enjoy the benefits, its more quality of life

- ¨breed chickens to increase theirs stats: growth, gain and strength to rapidly increase your production - inspect chickens with chicken analzer (an egg + a compass) to identify their stats and to get additional information - dye chickens, combine an ordinary egg with a dye and throw what you get to obtain a chicken laying dye: Lapis Lazuli Chicken, Cactus Green Chicken, Rose Red Chicken, Bone Meal Chicken... you can breed them for gray, pink, etc. - tier 1 chickens that are naturally spawning in the world: Flint Chicken, Snowball Chicken, Gunpowder Chicken, Nether Quartz Chicken, Lava Chicken - get higher tier chickens by crossbreeding them and have Diamond Chicken, Ghast Tear Chicken and many many more! - henhouse: provide hay bales and it will collect chicken 'products' in 9x9 area (4 blocks on each its side) for you, it will also produce dirt over time as a side effect ;] - smart chicken: give a vanilla chicken a book and it will become smart enough to use henhouse ;] - progressive breeding and laying system - lava and water eggs: get your renewable and stackable liquid source today! - heavily customisable: change laying rates, items, disable chickens, modify breeding, set drops, ... - mod chickens are less noisy

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 10:39 PM

Roost provides special physics to its roosts. Many chickens can fit in one, and they'll still be happy as free range chickens and well fed to boot. Chicken Breeders are the same, but the chickens produce young on regular intervals. They're also compatible with machines, and much more compact.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:41 PM

ah, that helps clear things up, ty

still, honestly, given the over 1/100 chance, it just seems like a really good way to farm chickens, i cant really take it with more chickens since thats a separate thing

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 10:41 PM

Roost is needed to really get the most out of [Chickens & More Chickens].

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:42 PM

I think Rustic is probably the better bet here.

Like you said, tiny chance of actually getting Chickens & More Chickens. Wait, are those being lumped together?

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 10:42 PM

They are.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:42 PM

Huh.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:42 PM

oh in that case nvm my ass

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 10:43 PM

[Chickens] and [More Chickens] are being lumped in under [Roost].

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:44 PM

Oh, they are?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:45 PM

potions and helpful alcoholism or so many exotic resources at cost of some biotinkering

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:45 PM

So it's a tossup between biotinkering for resources and alchemy that probably includes healing potions.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:45 PM

you do have healing guns already

you can make better healing guns with more resources

maybe we should get legend to weigh in on this? he's part of the reason we have this option lol

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:46 PM

Sure, if he doesn't mind being bothered about this.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:46 PM

effects: Elixir of Instant Health Elixir of Regeneration Elixir of Wither Elixir of Night Vision Elixir of Speed Elixir of Fire Resistance Elixir of Health Boost Elixir of Haste Elixir of Strength Elixir of Iron Skin Elixir of Feather Elixir of Blazing Trail Iron Skin Adds armor and armor toughness Gives an iron overlay to the model of affected entities Feather Slows the falling speed of affected entities Negates fall damage Blazing Trail Affected entities leave a trail of fire behind them

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:47 PM

And I could mass-produce these eventually.

Then again, potion effects are probably a lot more common than resource generation.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:47 PM

oh yeah

i mean, you unlock it with the nether

thats pretty fundamental

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:47 PM

I already have some with the Totems, for that matter.

I can store the effects of a totem in a medicine bag. Only one potion effect and level, and only one bag can be used at a time. There aren't any regeneration/healing totems either.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:49 PM

worst case scenario, we can probably get it through some other achievement, or if youre lucky, reroll it

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:50 PM

Yeah. The one I drop wouldn't be removed from the list or anything, right?

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 10:50 PM

The discarded mod will go back to the pool.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:50 PM

...actually, we could just like

start a farm on earth gimel

that one has good farmland i think

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:51 PM

Point.

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 10:52 PM

I just read through what was happening. How much by way of resources can the chickens give?

Kamui 16-Jan-21 10:54 PM

Apparently 'whatever you got'

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 10:54 PM

For rarer 1/1/1 chickens like draconium chickens, maybe one unit of resources every 10 minutes or so. More common ones like bone meal would be closer to one every minute or so. 10/10/10 chickens might be more like 1 minute and 5 seconds.

Kamui 16-Jan-21 10:54 PM

chicken-based alchemy

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:55 PM

oh my god

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 10:55 PM

The only way to get higher level chickens is to breed them.

Kamui 16-Jan-21 10:55 PM

So we can't arbitrarily make tinker-alloy chickens

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 10:55 PM

Only dye chickens and a few base resource chickens can be manually crafted.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:55 PM

Looks like it.

Well, not other tinkers' alloys.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:56 PM

you can say you got a resource generation power that relies on dimensional physics for you to get the resources, and if folks worry about dimensional laws you can clarify that nobody's there but you, yeah?

gimel diverged like 5000 years ago or something

Kamui 16-Jan-21 10:57 PM

there's some stuff we could say about it that would be censored

but if you set up the chicken farm there you'd be the only thing around

And now I'm thinking about how helpful Panacea would be to optimizing the chicken farm

if her power worked on the chickens at all

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 10:59 PM

Yeah, these chickens sound like the solution to all of my resource problems.

Or they will, once I've bred them all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 10:59 PM

it also lets you explain dimension hopping, assuming you always come back where you left

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:00 PM

Point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:00 PM

theyll just be like 'oh theyre slipping into a pocket dimension' or something

Kamui 16-Jan-21 11:00 PM

The chickens are kind of inherently odd given their ability to eat things like cake, fireworks, and books

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:01 PM

wym, youve never tried eating fireworks before? lol jk

Kamui 16-Jan-21 11:02 PM

Dark Matter and Red Matter are locked behind another mod it looks like

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:02 PM

Well, it looks like the chickens one is the best to pick at the moment.

Kamui 16-Jan-21 11:02 PM

or are in an unrelated mod

but hey demon steel sounds neat

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:04 PM

Well Forge, I think we've made our decision. Roost & Chickens & More Chickens it is.

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 11:04 PM

Power decided. Roost installed.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:05 PM

Well, I have no idea how to use half the stuff the chickens can make.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:05 PM

you have unlimited gold, soon

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:06 PM

I will. Well, relatively soon.

I still need to breed the gold chickens and then probably breed them up to 10/10/10 chickens.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:07 PM

i mean, even if its a gold nugget every 10 minutes

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:07 PM

It occurs to me that I could just release the chickens into the wild, since Gimel is uninhabited.

Ingot every 10 minutes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:07 PM

oh thats even better

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:07 PM

Very few chickens lay nuggets.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:07 PM

you just have to wait a little over an hour and thats for 1 chicken for enough gold to make a single lucky block

assuming lucky block crafting only requires that many based on minecraft crafting (edited)

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:08 PM

Minecraft crafting has similar ratios.

And gold chickens are more uncommon than rare. So maybe 5 minutes per ingot instead of 10?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:09 PM

so a little over half an hour, at worst, with one

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:09 PM

There's setup I'll need to do. Building a place to keep the chickens for one.

Good thing I'll be getting a bucket of lava very soon to make a cobblestone generator with.

I'll be making Castle Chicken very soon.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:10 PM

oh and apparently you just dump more gold into a lucky block for more luck? sick

fuck the iron castle we're making chicken castle

oh and iron blocks add 30 luck

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:11 PM

Plan Castle Chicken is a-go!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:11 PM

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:13 PM

Oh nice.

Yeah, iron chickens would be useful too.

Well, a lot will.

Can't wait to become super rich.

I can finally stop worrying about resource limitations.

It occurs to me that I might need another cape identity if I don't tell the Protectorate about this power.

Is this illegal? Probably.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:16 PM

could ask legend

he did seem somewhat in favor of it

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:16 PM

...Okay, now that I think about it, I should do this as legit as I can. I could just lie about my power or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:17 PM

yeah

honestly you should probably keep em pinned in over on gimel anyways

if it does come out that you're farming special chickens showing responsibility in taking care of em is important

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 11:18 PM

I was on board with keeping the dimensional travel a secret since you weren't planning to use it. I can give you a proper legal okay on the farm, if you like, but I'd probably need to mention your power in my reports if I did that.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:18 PM

So I can do it legally, but only if I come clean about my dimensional travel.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:18 PM

honestly, they'd probably keep it under tight wraps anyways

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 11:19 PM

Yeah, they would.

Resource generation on that scale is big. Since you'd be going to an uninhabited world, interdimensional travel laws would be more lenient.

You'd have to keep this from anyone not read in on it, of course, so no hiring help unless they sign a lot of NDAs.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:21 PM

true

id suggest snow golems but we saw how that went last time

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:21 PM

And snow golems melt easily.

i thought theyd be held together and generate more snow via magic

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:22 PM

I don't really want to create sapient beings for the purpose of essentially slave labour.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:22 PM

yeah thats entirely reasonable

twas why i brought up what happened last time

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:22 PM

They don't melt as easily as normal snow, but they're hurt by water.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:22 PM

wow, really? i never knew that

hm

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:23 PM

Yeah, they take damage in the rain or if they touch water in the game.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:23 PM

legend, i will have to ask you forgive us for using terms like alchemy and magic in here

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:23 PM

It's the language my power uses.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:23 PM

its shorthand for however the fuck powers work

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:24 PM

I try to refer to it as 'exotic energy' or suchlike when asked, but since my power calls it magic I do too.

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 11:24 PM

Fair enough. Myrddin is a perfectly capable cape, so it doesn't bother me.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:25 PM

just wanted to clear the air over all that

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:26 PM

Anyway, should I reveal my dimension-travel powers? I'd be fine with it, as long as they're kept hidden.

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 11:26 PM

It wouldn't be the first time. Chevalier has a sub-power he keeps hidden too for instance, since it lets him identify capes out of costume.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:27 PM

id reveal em, but in power testing in a different city

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 11:27 PM

You could reveal the power but keep it as classified to everyone aside from your direct superiors.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:27 PM

oh. well, that works

yeah id say go for that

Legend BOT 16-Jan-21 11:28 PM

In this case, that would me myself, Director Costa-Brown, Armsmaster, and your local PRT director.

So we have time, then. Good.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:51 PM

her nemesis causes her problems, big surprise i know

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 11:52 PM

The absolute lowest you can go is a large insect.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:52 PM

actually

we could do guessing games to leak the ID of the leader

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 11:53 PM

It is not something that needs to be done right now, but the sooner the better, because no matter the origin dragon is a true hero.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:53 PM

Okay, sounds good to me.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:53 PM

yeah shes one of the few unambiguously good people out there

so, saint

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 11:54 PM

What is defined as a large insect, are we talking cockroach or hercules beetle here ?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:54 PM

The Dragonslayers? I assumed it would be, like, secretly Accord or Coil or some shit.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:54 PM

nope, its a sword of damocles situation

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 11:54 PM

Closer to hercules beetles.

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 11:54 PM

Yeah and dragon herself doesn't even know about it

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 11:55 PM

(Metaknowledge on [Dragon] was not sent.)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:55 PM

think dragon would fight them at all if she knew about that sword?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:55 PM

Aaaand there's the damn censors again.

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 11:55 PM

Can skitters control someone who is morphed into a insect or crustacean ?

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 11:56 PM

Yep. Morph gives both strengths and weaknesses.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:57 PM

hm

ok, so first off, lets consider things she does

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 11:57 PM

That is a scary thought, skitter has absolute body control over her insects, imagine being stuck as a beetle under her control brrr.

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 11:58 PM

Yeah, be careful with that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:58 PM

dragon manages all comms during endbringer battles, and does she participate outside of that?

tizian.s 16-Jan-21 11:58 PM

Could they morph into silver fish ?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:58 PM

Yeah, she uses a mech suit.

Forge BOT 16-Jan-21 11:58 PM

Yes, silverfish can be morphed into.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:58 PM

okay, thats an insane amount of multitasking for a tinker, right?

Dubiously Motivated Pika 16-Jan-21 11:59 PM

F.These ones, to clarify.

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:59 PM

She's a thinker too? Huh.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:59 PM

no

well

her main power might be a thinker power?

Austin BOT 16-Jan-21 11:59 PM

Uh

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 16-Jan-21 11:59 PM

hm. not sure if tinker or thinker, but thats a tangent

can nilbog's creations trigger?

im not saying she is a creation of nilbog

i am very explicitly not calling her a nilbog creation

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:01 AM

I... have no idea if they can trigger. I'd assume yes from what you're trying to imply.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:01 AM

lets say so

Dubiously Motivated Pika 17-Jan-21 12:01 AM

(Oops, dunno why I did this for that message)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:01 AM

so, parahuman creations that're sapient can trigger

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:01 AM

Dragon was created by a parahuman?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:01 AM

yep

what would you do if you were making a sapient robot after watching terminator

with all that horrific skynet stuff

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:03 AM

Yes as a sub-rating, her main power is insect control, her sub-power is ,is insect-relatet multitasking, as long as she does this stuff with her insects she can do as many things at the same time as the amount of insects she controls.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:04 AM

...tizian we were talking about dragon not skitter

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 12:05 AM

(Metaknowledge on [Skitter] was not sent.)

Austin She's a thinker too? Huh.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:05 AM

Yes, i know but that is my answer to this question

Hours, Minutes, Seconds okay, thats an insane amount of multitasking for a tinker, right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:05 AM

hate to be the bearer of bad news, but

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:05 AM

Oh man, it did not go through.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:05 AM

rip

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:05 AM

Dragon's a robot, then? With built-in restrictions?

F

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:05 AM

you're very close

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:06 AM

No but close

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:06 AM

sentence after that

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:06 AM

Not a robot, then. Biological creation? Bad Case 53? Independent projection? ...Good endbringer?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:06 AM

youre getting so much colder

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:07 AM

Uh

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:07 AM

you're thinking hardware

you should be thinking something that isnt hardwear

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:07 AM

Software

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:07 AM

Specifically an AI, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:07 AM

yes

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:07 AM

Yes

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:07 AM

Huh.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:07 AM

a limited ai, as you said earlier

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:08 AM

And she isn't about to go skynet, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:08 AM

she would have to be hacked for that

like, so many overrides it aint even funny

shes a good person

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:08 AM

Okay, good to confirm that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:08 AM

but the limits are less concerning than something related to them

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:09 AM

What are things ais with very paranoid creators have that are not restrictions?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:09 AM

Self-destruct button?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:09 AM

close, but dragon can download herself on stuff

software, not hardware (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:09 AM

Like, a software self-destruct button? If you're making that distinction.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:10 AM

yeah

a digital killswitch

we're worried about the dragonslayers why?

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:10 AM

Now think who has her killswitch

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:10 AM

Right. And Saint is trying to find it?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:10 AM

uh

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:10 AM

No worse

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:10 AM

He has it already.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:10 AM

Yes

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:10 AM

he's paranoid but dragon being the greatest thing since sliced bread has held him off i think

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:11 AM

Right.

So, if Dragon's threateningness grows higher than her usefulness to him, then he kills her.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:11 AM

it also gets a bit worse. why would we not want dragon in here while he has the killswitch?

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:12 AM

She also has the other thing Ais with very paranoid creators have that is not a killswitch

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:12 AM

Killswitch could destroy the chatroom?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:12 AM

no

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:12 AM

No

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:12 AM

Uh...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:12 AM

why are we keeping other people out of here

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:12 AM

She's bugged?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:12 AM

correct!

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:12 AM

The surveillance kind, not...

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:13 AM

Yep

surveillance

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:13 AM

Right.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:13 AM

Very bugged

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:13 AM

So, I have no fucking idea what I can do about this.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:13 AM

well, we could pass his civ ID to legend

or try to

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:13 AM

It is almost as if he can read dragons thoughts on a screen.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:13 AM

first name sounds like a surfer, last name relates to medicine

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:13 AM

Okay, so the Dragonslayers need to go down first.

Beach Doktor? You, uh, might need to be more specific than that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:14 AM

Get Off Pillock thats a hint btw

its v similar

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:15 AM

Geoff? Not sure what 'Pillock' would be.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:15 AM

start switching vowels aroudn on pillock

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:15 AM

Geoff is right

youre right on geoff

Pellick?

yea!

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:17 AM

Is Geoff short for anything?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:17 AM

first name can technically be extended

like jeff to jeffrey

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:17 AM

Geoffry?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:18 AM

needs one vowel

but you almost got it with that guess

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:18 AM

I think we should contact the crystal tinker and bring them into the fold.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:18 AM

Geoffrey. I'm very good at spelling names.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:18 AM

dw lol

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:18 AM

Diamond? Could be a good idea.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:18 AM

They could also help with this

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:18 AM

depends on their level of meta knowledge?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:19 AM

I might be told to put a waypoint in Boston as a test, and that would be a good time to talk with Diamond.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:19 AM

@Legend we found the civ id of a guy putting a gun to dragon's head, among the dragonslayers

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 12:19 AM

I've been listening in.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:19 AM

ah awesome

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 12:20 AM

Saint. I take it this is something to keep on the down-low?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:20 AM

the killswitch and ai thing yeah

he does seriously need taking down with the rest of his team though

no chance of anyone killing dragon if its done right

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:21 AM

Yes very down-low, we seriously need to free her, the amount of good a free dragon could do is overwhelming

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 12:21 AM

I'll be careful, then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:21 AM

once armsmaster finds out about this from dragon herself, the killswitch/backdoor should go to him i think

...i just had a thought: legend, can you do invisible lasers? and does that mean your breaker form could go invisible?

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:23 AM

I think we should just free her and then destroy it

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:23 AM

tizian itd be hell for anyone to do that, nobody with the right specialty is available

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 12:23 AM

I'm afraid I'm pretty flashy.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:24 AM

I think he should be able do do outside the human visual spectrum, but i doubt completely invisible is doable

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:24 AM

god i need to hydrate, brb

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:24 AM

Maybe I could bring you in from another dimension? Actually, you could probably do that yourself.

Hydration is important! Go do that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:24 AM

yall know the dragonslayers' base location?

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 12:24 AM

We do not.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:25 AM

probably best to try getting some thinkers on that first

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:25 AM

No, sadly not, how do we find that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:25 AM

despite claims to the contrary, fucked if i could know lol

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 12:26 AM

I could send a high-privacy request to Watchdog.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:26 AM

thats a thing? nice, that'd help out a ton

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 12:26 AM

Since we know his real name, he's going to be a lot easier to track down.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:27 AM

god yeah

i love the internet age

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:27 AM

I assume it is somewhere in canada, wait can we not search for him with the server thingies ?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:27 AM

he does have tinkertech

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:27 AM

No i mean the minecraft power

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:27 AM

oh

dont think that shows gps coords

does it?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:27 AM

It just shows who's online.

Not where they are.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:28 AM

Annoying

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:28 AM

If we get a general location, maybe Legend could fly around quickly with anime thinking time and the minimap open.

Does Saint have any distinctive facial features?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:29 AM

yep

as artificial as dragon

what do saints have? the priestly sort

what sort of haircut do monks have

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:31 AM

Artificial. Cyborg? Saints have those pope hats. Monks are bald.

Oh, saints have halos.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:32 AM

bald yes, cyborg no

hes a shit tinker

i can barely call him one

handheld saint items

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:33 AM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:33 AM

well yeah but i wouldnt think we can outright say that

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:33 AM

tattoo

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:34 AM

And the artificial thing?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:37 AM

Back to facial features.

Is this artificial thing a separate feature?

the artificial thing was in reference to the cross tattoo

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:39 AM

Okay, right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:39 AM

i will say, its supposed to not be obvious i think

cape and personal life separation

yeah

only thing about the fuck i can respect

thats it as far as explicit descriptions we got go

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:42 AM

Right. Well, I'd say that's pretty distinctive.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:42 AM

I can respect that at least in the beginning he thought he was saving the world from a danger, but what he continues to do, not so much, i mean he has access to her thoughts, how can he still think he is saving the world from a threat ?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:42 AM

yknow. i just had a thought

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:43 AM

Yeah, this Saint guy had better be ready to throw hands if Dragon is as nice as you guys say.

A thought?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:43 AM

itd be fucked up if maggie holt was one of the dragonslayers

could see it, maybe, considering one of their names

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:43 AM

I still haven't read the Maggie Holt books. Uh, Mags?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:44 AM

yep

no description there sadly other than 'female'

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:44 AM

I mean, she'd be near Saint, right?

yep

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:44 AM

As would the third one.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:45 AM

third dragonslayer did the cape thing with secret identities

idk which he uses for public documentation

its russian-sounding tho hints are as follows Miss Ya Dog Ninja

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:47 AM

Welp. The only Russian name I know is Boris.

Uh, Legend?

Kamui 17-Jan-21 12:48 AM

it's some mess of russian

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:48 AM

you know the heavy from tf2

same name basically

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 12:48 AM

Is it Dobrynja? That's the closest name I can think of.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:49 AM

dobrynja yes

thats one of the ids he has

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:49 AM

Thanks for the save.

the other is

Miss Ya heavy from tf2

actually fuck it heavy from tf2's name is misha

Mischa?

point

i just worry too much i guess

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:51 AM

If I knew anyone named Mischa, I can't remember it.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:52 AM

So what are you currently doing with your power, what are you crafting ?

And you need to update your notebook

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:53 AM

im gonna take a break

despite not being a thinker, even i get headaches from thinking too hard

lol

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:55 AM

I do need to update my notebook. I've been doing it before sleeping.

Have a nice break.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:55 AM

thanks

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 12:55 AM

I was just using anime thinking time, actually. I'm not really doing anything.

I guess I have time to kill. Lab? Resesarch?

I could fish to build up the exp to enchant my armour. I have the lapis for that.

Actually, I could start making chicken eggs too.

The logs and lava aren't due to arrive until tomorrow, so that's when I'll actually get the chicken coop started and the totems up.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 12:58 AM

You have to go to power testing because of your hidden dimensional travel power, have fun.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 12:58 AM

i mean, maybe, maybe not

its still staying mostly hidden

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 01:00 AM

Yeah, but he will still have to test it, they do that with every power even those that are hidden from everyone else.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:00 AM

Nah, they're not allowed to know about it anyway.

I'll need to figure it out myself, but I already get how it works.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 01:03 AM

How about you spend some time with Miss Militia and help her with the shadow stalker investigation, the faster we get her, the faster we can help taylor

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:04 AM

She's out patrolling right now. I think the Shadow Stalker thing is being put on the back burner until the ABB threat is resolved.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 01:04 AM

You should also spend some time with your child, maybe you can let him join the wards, he is in the right agegroup

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:04 AM

Yeah, good point.

I don't want to be an absentee parent.

Actually, if he can keep a secret, I could let him in here too.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 01:05 AM

And you can use it as a opportunity to meet them, you also need to find a way to get in better contact with Diamond,

He is too young for that, maybe if he is a little bit more mature

How good do you think children of his age are at keeping secrets ?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:07 AM

I'll be sent to set down waypoints around the country at some point. I think they're considering getting Strider to help me. I could probably pop over to Boston with that as an excuse.

...I asked him, and apparently he already knew about my 'thinker power'. I guess the knowledge carried across.

Well, it looks like there's no reason not to let him in if he was able to keep that a secret.

5 in the afternoon or so.

Me and the Captain are chatting while fishing in a bathtub.

Minecraft fishing is weird.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 01:16 AM

Ok, so how does captain actually look ? Does he look like he does in the achievement, has he hands etc.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:19 AM

He looks like a regular iron golem but with purple eyes. And yes, iron golems have proper hands with articulate fingers.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 01:19 AM

Does that mean he has a giant metal nose ?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:19 AM

He does.

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 17-Jan-21 01:20 AM

i cant smell things better but i like my nose anyway

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 01:20 AM

Nice

So,Captain Cuddlesworth are you going to join the wards, and did you already do power testing ?

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 17-Jan-21 01:23 AM

yep!

power testing was fun. i got to throw a lot of things.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:24 AM

Well, that makes one of us.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 01:26 AM

And, how do you like the other wards, are they nice, because nothing will protect them if they are not

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 17-Jan-21 01:26 AM

i havent met them yet

ill meet them tomorrow with mom!

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 01:29 AM

Cool, that means we can only wait for tomorrow, because I doubt we have anything important to do till then. Just write if something interesting happens. I will try to help.

(Initiate Time Skip)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:30 AM

Sure, I'll fish in the meantime, see if I can't build up my exp for enchanting purposes.

Dubiously Motivated Pika 17-Jan-21 01:30 AM

(This is a good stopping point and I'm getting tired, so I might go to bed now.)

(Gn!)

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 01:30 AM

(Sleep good)

Dubiously Motivated Pika 17-Jan-21 01:31 AM

(

)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:12 PM

Fishing went well. In the end, I just used regular, unenchanted fishing rods because the enchanted ones would break and waste exp.

So now it's 6 in the morning.

I also updated my notes. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1U2Z_PaQVwKPdSC_il4mte7IZ8GQOIjHUj1m_QHd-kBM/edit?usp=sharing

New Notebook.nofy

Events so far: (Note: Each segment of colour marks a different session of Stoneforge.) April 15th, 2011: I wake up during the night in a town called Brockton Bay to a flying golden man, Scion, who looks at me and flies away. I have no memories, several physical mutations, and an omega tattoo on...

Summed up recent events, as usual. Updated the powers list, and added a section for other people who may be from out-of-context.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:17 PM

nice

i think the mismatched costume indicates that gamer is using instant dungeons to grind up their gear

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:18 PM

Yeah, that's what I was thinking too.

Looting gear or crafting it from drops.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:18 PM

prolly

gotta say, im hype for the super lucky blocks drops

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:20 PM

Same here.

It's a bit away, but it'll hopefully be good.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:21 PM

sharpness 1 billion

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:21 PM

Anyway, I'll be heading to the PRT building at 9 to meet the local Wards, then I'll be going to the press conference where I'll be announced.

God, Sharpness M would be so good.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:22 PM

unbreaking M protection M

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:22 PM

What would Knockback M do?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:22 PM

orbit

anything you hit would enter orbit at mach 7

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:22 PM

God.

Huh, the chat doesn't put the proper bars over the Roman numerals.

1000000000 would be M with a bar over it, but the bar's not showing up.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:23 PM

...oh dear god i just had a thought

dauntless with your lucky block gear

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:24 PM

Oh Shit. That would be Something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:24 PM

that sounds like 'solo an endbringer' tier equipment

at least hypothetically

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:24 PM

@Forge?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 01:25 PM

For balance purposes in the pact between the sponsor systems, powers or items that are too powerful are blocked from access without proportional costs.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:26 PM

Damn.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:26 PM

agreed, damn

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:26 PM

Though, uh

'Pact between the sponsor systems'?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:26 PM

these things tend to work a bit like a tv show, as far as i understand

audience, challenges, perks and handicaps, etc

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 01:27 PM

The rules of the game. Balancing and fairness. Insertion timing. Methods.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:27 PM

Right.

So, what, is this a game to you, Forge?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 01:28 PM

Yes.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:28 PM

...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:28 PM

i dont think lucky blocks are too unfair

its gambling

admittedly, we plan to spend additional resources to weigh that gambling, but still

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 01:29 PM

Higher-end items are locked out of lucky blocks, such as 'Sharpness one billion'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:29 PM

well, that's depressing

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:30 PM

Well, at least if I'm locked out of that, so will the others.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:30 PM

gestures at steelheart again

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 01:30 PM

Steelheart is within the bounds of balancing.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:31 PM

so austin could get to 'all but soloing the triumvirate' tier

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 01:32 PM

Steelheart played dirty. I wouldn't say he's any stronger than Eidolon [if you don't count his trump power], but he could go all out while we tried to keep collateral damage down. After Nightwielder and Firefight showed up, he was able to actually drive us back.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:33 PM

fair point

so in summary fuck that guy

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 01:34 PM

Nightwielder can block out our vision, and Firefight was an illusionist. All of them have a huge range on their powers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:34 PM

...oh my god i just had a thought

one second

so earth reckoners is a thing

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:35 PM

Actually, me, Diamond, and Gamer have powers that grow over time or otherwise need setup. Nothing on Steelheart's page says anything about growth over time. Yeah, Earth Reckoners is a thing.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:35 PM

that implies that other earths, with some seriously powerful superheroes, is a thing

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:35 PM

If I can find them, yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:36 PM

is earth prime or earth dc prime a thing?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:37 PM

None as far as I can see.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:37 PM

earth-one?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 01:39 PM

Current parallel universes caused by altered physics: - Parahumans series alternate Earths - Unknown series' alternate planes - Unknown series' alternate planes - Minecraft alternate dimensions - Reckoners series alternate Earths

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:40 PM

steven universe alternate planes isnt on the list?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 01:41 PM

Steven Universe physics have nothing that relates to alternate dimensions or alternate Earths.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:41 PM

and the gamer?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:41 PM

Wait, but then the numbers don't add up.

One unknown series is the one we've speculated is The Gamer. If the other isn't SU, then what is it?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 01:42 PM

Information on other sponsorships may not be disclosed.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:42 PM

is there an earth silverbell

or some variant thereof

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:43 PM

Nope.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:43 PM

dang

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 01:43 PM

'Earth Silverbell' was in a different iteration of this multiverse and, thus, cannot be accessed.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:43 PM

ah

heck

hey i just read up on Calamity's powerset and uh

Gifting: All Epic power is the result of Calamity gifting some of his own powers. Assuming: Calamity can take back the powers he has granted with about 30 seconds of contact. This doesn't work on an Epic who has conquered the darkness, as once an Epic conquers the darkness, they separate their power from Calamity's control. Epic Mastery: As the source of Epic power, Calamity can control the powers of other Epics to a degree. He was able to absorb the power of one of Obliteration's bombs and effortlessly destroyed Prof's force fields. This works even on people who have conquered his darkness, since Prof had done so before Calamity destroyed his force fields. Other Powers: Calamity has uncountable Epic powers, which at the very least include: Several prime invincibilities: Invulnerability: impervious to any harm Regeneration: the ability to rapidly heal Danger Sense: ability to detect danger Decoy Creation: creating clones Illumination: He glows crimson Matter Creation: He can create virtually anything. However, the objects would eventually fade

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:45 PM

There is an Earth One, but I think it's because they ran out of letters from different alphabets.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:45 PM

Flight: He can fly, according to David Epic Detection: He can track down any Epics, no matter where they hide. He referred to it as "sniffing out" Sedation: He can put people to sleep via touch Thermal Manipulation: David states he can control heat and cold Glass Transmutation: He can change things into glass like the space station he resides in (similar with Steelheart does with his steel transmutation) Spacial Distortion: He can distort the amount of space in an area, effectively bending reality Size Manipulation: It appears that Larcener has the ability to manipulate his height to a degree, though to what extent is unknown Fatigue Immunity: He doesn't ever need to rest Teleportation: Calamity appears to be able to teleport himself and other objects short distances and perhaps farther. The objects don’t have to be touching him in order to teleport them Salt Transmutation: Calamity can turn huge swaths of land to salt including plants Light Manipulation: He is able to produce lasers and lights

notice anything familiar at the top of that list

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:45 PM

Um.

Shit, does Steelheart have Calamity's powers too?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:46 PM

some of em. it seems

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:46 PM

Yeah, he wouldn't have all of them, or else he would've used them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:46 PM

his flight was shitty too

...yknow, i think i know a particular cape up in alaska who could deal with this guy

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:47 PM

Oh?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:47 PM

breaker/stranger, i think it was? basically can't have long-term consequences to anything

could keep steelheart tied up

i could be wrong admittedly

wait no, not alaska

seattle?

gasconade, yeah?

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 01:51 PM

Gasconade wouldn't be able to do much against Steelheart's invincibility, I'm afraid.

On top of that, he could've created any number of lieutenants with powers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:51 PM

ah, point

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 01:52 PM

Our one saving grace here is that he's content to stay in Chicago.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:53 PM

im kinda concerned jack slash is gonna reroute to chicago tbh, this seems like something thatd be right up his alley to mess with

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:53 PM

Fuck. He'd better not.

There's a whole lot of drama online about the decision to still let people trade with Chicago. Some people say it's wrong because it gives Steelheart more power, but other people are bringing up the fact that the people there still need to eat.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:56 PM

really, still trading? wouldve assumed it was getting treated like a simurgh quarantine zone

food and water supply drops and absolutely no traffic

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:57 PM

Okay, I worded it badly. It's closer to quarantine shipping than trading. They're letting supplies go in and toting waste and letters and such out.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:57 PM

ahh

yeah, no arguments about things working like that, id rather not have everyone in there die off

just a very select few people

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:58 PM

Also, remember that water controller chick Legend ran into? Well, there's a layer of water on the ground there.

Dubiously Motivated Pika 17-Jan-21 01:59 PM

A-Like, water that's not obeying the laws of physics.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 01:59 PM

oh goodie

im just gonna start looking up epics

eventually the well for powers will run dry

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 01:59 PM

Is there a list on the wiki?

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 01:59 PM

The water controller's name was Regalia.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:02 PM

im just gonna send it in bulk and hope it doesnt compress it

to the point you cant read it

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:04 PM

Yeah, it works.

Anyway.

What the hell is the second 'unknown series' alternate planes'?

The first would be Gamer's.

But there's just me, Gamer, Diamond and Steelheart, and Forge confirmed there aren't any Steven Universe dimensions.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:06 PM

can we get a number of people in our chunk of the multiverse who have sponsorships?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:06 PM

Actually, just to confirm @Forge, we haven't officially confirmed Gamer as a The Gamer crossover with you, have we?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 02:07 PM

Until proper confirmation is received, theorizing will not be enough to discover sponsorship Gamer's source series.

Number of sponsorships may not be disclosed, nor the interval between them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:08 PM

any servers labeled ID or Instant Dungeon?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:08 PM

Oho, there is!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:08 PM

confirmation, then

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 02:08 PM

Confirmed.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:08 PM

Can we have a repeat of the worlds list, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:09 PM

...actually, this means you could theoretically enter and exit instant dungeons to get loot from the monsters inside

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 02:09 PM

Current parallel universes caused by altered physics: - Parahumans series alternate Earths - The Gamer series' illusion barriers - Unknown series' alternate planes - Minecraft alternate dimensions - Reckoners series alternate Earths

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:09 PM

Damn, I could.

Well, I'd risk running into Gamer, and he's a known villain.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:10 PM

any places labeled Homeworld?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:10 PM

None.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:10 PM

well, not steven universe alternate worlds then

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:10 PM

Forge? Have we confirmed Steven Universe, to clarify?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 02:11 PM

Yes. Diamond is confirmed to draw from Steven Universe.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:11 PM

can you filter out servers labeled a certain way, like filtering out 'earth'

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:11 PM

Damn, I wish.

The best I have is a search function.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:11 PM

like, -earth or something like that in the search bar?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:12 PM

I can't even put them in alphabetical order. -Earth didn't work either. It just registered as '-earth' and got no results.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:12 PM

dang it

oh ew its not ordered?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:14 PM

It's ordered by the suffix. The Hebrew alphabet Earths in order (Aleph, Bet, Gimel..), then the two-letter Hebrew alphabet Earths (Aleph-Aleph, Aleph-Bet...), then after all of those are the Greek alphabet ones, etc.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:15 PM

oh boy

thats. a lot

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:15 PM

Yeah.

There's a lot of fucking Earths. It sucks.

But it looks like I'll need a keyword to identify any extra additions.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:16 PM

search 'universe'?

wait youve prolly already done that

hm

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:17 PM

No, Steven Universe was already confirmed. It would've showed up if there were SU dimensions too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:18 PM

maybe 'crystal'

thats something we know is connected to diamond

this may not be diamond, in which case the guesswork is probably useless

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 02:19 PM

Steven Universe physics do not contain alternate universes. Parahumans physics do. Reckoners physics do. The Gamer physics do. Minecraft physics do.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:19 PM

Ah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:19 PM

yeah, its useless then

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:19 PM

So we really do have at least one other person we haven't identified.

can you search 'sburb'

Or Homestuck.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:20 PM

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:21 PM

I think I might've had a friend who was super into Homestuck once? Because some of these sound vaguely familiar.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:21 PM

homestuck is a creation myth where a video game ends the world

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:21 PM

Is 'The Medium' Homestuck? Not that it works. Yeah, that sounds familiar.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:22 PM

the medium was homestuck yeah

i straight up panicked for a sec when you said that lol

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:22 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:22 PM

hm. series with alternate universes... bioshock

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:23 PM

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:25 PM

I wouldn't need the Nether to make an Aether portal either, since I have glowstone chickens.

I don't know how to share my respawn power, aside from with golems.

It's not a shareable Forge power.

thats all but verbatim, it just uses one censored word (edited)

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:39 PM

Ye

A certain clue

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:39 PM

Couldn't it just... Not use the censored word?

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:39 PM

You know how lobsters can see in more colors than humans?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:39 PM

So, what, we can see more colours than powers?

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:39 PM

Ye

The colors of magic

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:40 PM

Magic mantis shrimp gang rise up!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:40 PM

no, its more like your power makes magic a thing

it had to establish changes and all that

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:40 PM

But is a good way to explain it without the word

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:40 PM

until you came by, magic was not a thing

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:40 PM

Normal shards cannot perceive as much colors as us or Austin shard

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:40 PM

Yeah, but my power permenantly altered physics. Even once I'm gone, magic will still exist.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:41 PM

Yep

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:41 PM

your power has an out of context energy, so the preexisting powers dunno what to do with that new stuff

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:41 PM

You one upped the passengers

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 02:41 PM

(Metaknowledge on [Shards, Passengers] was not sent.)

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:41 PM

(He doesn’t know that shards are passengers?)

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 02:41 PM

(No.)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:42 PM

(it's not publicly available info that they think, either)

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:42 PM

(Okay)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:42 PM

its like a robot that got programmed for construction work having to ride a surfboard

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:42 PM

Okay, I think I get it.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:43 PM

Austin why does armsmaster power doesn’t work well on your tech but armsmaster can?

What are the possibilities?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:43 PM

"Apparently, the majority of powers aren't hardwired to be able to comprehend this form of exotic energy, like how a dog can't see certain colours."

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:43 PM

Yes

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:44 PM

i dont think we need to get into how powers work

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 02:44 PM

"You couldn't have said this earlier?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:44 PM

because that's info that could kill austin

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:44 PM

Yeah

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:44 PM

"My thinker power just clarified it."

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:44 PM

Okay let put a pin on that

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:44 PM

Okay, I don't need info that could get me killed.

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 02:44 PM

"Fine."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:45 PM

apologies for the prior lack of clarification, we'd assumed armsmaster had kind of figured that one out on his own

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:45 PM

Yep

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:45 PM

given he adjusted to not using his power for that stuff

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:45 PM

He needs to learn it himself to later apply his powers to it

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:45 PM

well, maybe

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:45 PM

"Apparently, my power thought you figured it out last time."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:46 PM

this is kind of a weird situation as far as tinkering goes

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:46 PM

Yep

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 02:46 PM

"No. Last time, I was learning it manually so I could apply my power to it. It went very poorly."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:46 PM

yeah, thats our bad

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:46 PM

So the shards cannot learn from their users in applications?

Thats a bad design flaw

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:47 PM

on the plus side, have you let him know his tinker budget is about to be massively freed up?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 02:47 PM

(Metaknowledge on [Shards being called shards] was not sent.)

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:48 PM

So powers cannot learn new applications from their users?

Thats a fatal flaw but beneficial for us

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:48 PM

to be fair its less 'learn new applications from user' and more 'applying preexisting ideas with new research' thats a problem, i think. it relies on exotic energy, as well, id like to point out

exotic energy his power isnt giving him

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:49 PM

True

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:49 PM

whether or not he has it naturally is up for debate ig

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 02:49 PM

Powers simply do not have certain capabilities, such as having mana pools. Thus, tinker powers cannot experiment with magic on their private worlds and tinker powers cannot comprehend magic.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:49 PM

ohhh

is that how tinker powers do research then

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:49 PM

Well the simurgh is a non problem mostly

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 02:49 PM

Yes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:49 PM

nice

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:49 PM

Yep

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:49 PM

Well, unless I'm resistant to precognition...

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:50 PM

In tech copping Austin

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 02:50 PM

You are not. Mod installations are, however.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:50 PM

She copies tinkers technology

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:50 PM

Yeah, I know what you mean.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:50 PM

smack her with the unluckiest blocks

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:50 PM

Ye

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:50 PM

unlucky blockzooka

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:50 PM

Ha, that would be interesting.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:50 PM

Ye

Maybe an autocannon

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 02:50 PM

afk

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:51 PM

Though, given that I remember some of them raining TNT down, it might not be the best idea for collateral damage.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:51 PM

Endbringers fights

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:51 PM

There were also monster-spawning traps.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:51 PM

I don’t think collateral are a problem there

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:51 PM

And lava traps, and anvil traps.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:51 PM

And yes the second one is more problematic

Specially because of comparisons

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:51 PM

Well, unless we want to abandon whatever cities the endbringers attack, I might not risk it.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:52 PM

To be fair most of them are abandoned unless they are really important like New York

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:52 PM

I still don't know if zombies are magic or not, and I don't want to find out by the Simurgh making a zombie plague from them.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:52 PM

Also true

A good idea that

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:53 PM

I mean, Brockton Bay would've kept going after Leviathan, right?

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:53 PM

Depends on certain factors (edited)

But most likely

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:53 PM

Most lucky block bad luck I remember wouldn't do anything against the Endbringers.

Not strong enough.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:53 PM

True

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 02:55 PM

"I got an email from Legend last night about your powers. You can travel to other worlds?"

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:56 PM

Ye

He is a planeswalker, baby (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 02:57 PM

"Yeah. I wasn't planning to use it outside of emergencies, but I recently got a resource generation that needs both space and isolation, so I'll be building a facility on an uninhabited Earth to use it."

"The power can only do raw materials, but if you need any raw materials I'll be able to produce, then just ask."

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:58 PM

Ye

Mostly metals and rocks

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 02:58 PM

"You solved your material crisis rather quickly, there."

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 02:59 PM

Our material crisis

Including you, kid and me

Which is basically the answer

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:00 PM

"Like I said, you can have as much of the stuff I produce as you like. Not everything will be immediately operational, since I'll need some time to breed the chickens properly, but I'll be working on it."

"Once I scale the operations up, I'll be willing to give materials to any Protectorate-affiliated tinker who needs them."

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 03:03 PM

"That's good. I was just wondering how you came upon a resource power so quickly when it had been such an issue."

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:03 PM

Is he trying to get at something? No idea what.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:04 PM

Is strange

And said the truth, luck

It could have been a normal construction power, another strange one or even a useless one

Like make low power batteries of potatoes (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:07 PM

"Just luck, mostly. The milestone I got for helping Legend was apparently a rare milestone, so I was able to pick one of two random powers. The other one was, uh... Exotic energy in relation to chemicals. Something similar to Cask from the Anchorage Protectorate. I kept the materials one."

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 03:07 PM

"I see."

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:07 PM

Okay, he definitely thinks something is up.

Not sure what, not sure why.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:08 PM

He is jealous

He has something of a mid life crisis

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:08 PM

Right. This again.

Well, it's fine by me. Not like he's trying anything.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:09 PM

Ye

If your on the side of angels you will be mostly fine

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:10 PM

Yeah.

Well, time to make some totems.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:10 PM

Yep

Make it a terrifying one

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:10 PM

I can store the lava in a Bucket in the meantime, which keeps it nice and safe.

Can't spill or heat anything up.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:11 PM

Yep

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:11 PM

No idea what to do with all the tech that was keeping it safe and contained before.

Anyway, totems.

I'm thinking a buffalo totem first, which gives Haste.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:12 PM

Oh more work time

Side effects?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:13 PM

Air resistance is a problem if you try to move too fast. Moreso if you run around or something.

Speed should mitigate that, so it's what I'll be making next.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:14 PM

So not a problem in a mostly stationary station

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:14 PM

Actually, I could probably do them both at once.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:14 PM

Do them then

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:14 PM

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:14 PM

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:15 PM

One Buffalo and one Horse, coming right up.

Okay, done!

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:16 PM

Great

Is possible for you to make a moving spell with the cad?

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 03:16 PM

"Whatdidyoudo?"

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:17 PM

A space of accelerated time

More work in less time in simple words (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:18 PM

"Accelerated-time,basically.Anyone-within-5m-moves-faster."

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:18 PM

Can work on projectiles?

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 03:18 PM

"Have-you-tested-this-at-all?"

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:19 PM

Like you shoot them they pass the field and conserve the new speed?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:19 PM

No, the effect is only applied to nearby people.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:20 PM

Shame

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:20 PM

"This-is-the-test.It's-both-temporary-and-harmless,don't-worry."

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 03:21 PM

"You're-using-untested-tinkertech-on-me?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:21 PM

ok i return

oh dear fuck

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:21 PM

Yes

We are using it in an area

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:21 PM

did you know itd activate immediately?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:21 PM

"Like-I-said,it's-harmless-and-temporary.I'm-100%-sure-of-this."

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:21 PM

Is an active effect actived when the totem model horse and Buffalo are completed (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:22 PM

Yeah, I finished them, so now they're permanently on.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:22 PM

i dont think armsmaster is gonna be happy about this, regardless of how harmless or temporary it is

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:22 PM

Yep

Oh yes he has a stick up his ass

This will cause some trouble

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:22 PM

you may wanna mention constructions of this type automatically activate

like, as soon as theyve been completed

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:23 PM

"Totems-activate-as-soon-as-they're-completed."

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 03:23 PM

"Can-you-turn-it-off?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:24 PM

breaking it, storing it in your inventory

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:24 PM

Only the destruction of the object make it possible

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:24 PM

"Not-without-breaking-it."

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:24 PM

Or storing it in a different dimension

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 03:24 PM

"Then-break-it.It's-untested."

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:25 PM

Store it your inventory

He is now jealous and will fight you every step

Damm

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:25 PM

good grief

i dont think thats the whole thing

using untested tinkertech on people is a big no-go

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:25 PM

Good idea, my inventory should deactivate it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:26 PM

hes probably pissed that you used something on him that had an effect he didnt know about

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:26 PM

Yep

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:26 PM

"Okay, it looks like it doesn't work from in my inventory."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:26 PM

even if it was inadvertantly

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:26 PM

Now the next one said to him

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 03:26 PM

"You didn't know that already? I thought you knew how it worked."

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:26 PM

I know the mechanics not the interactions (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:26 PM

"Not in relation to my other powers."

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:27 PM

Yep

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:27 PM

lets try not to start a fight with armsmaster by being high and mighty about this stuff

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:27 PM

You’re right

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:28 PM

"Sorry I didn't warn you."

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:28 PM

Now Austin

Armsmaster BOT 17-Jan-21 03:28 PM

"Then warn me next time. And don't do this again."

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:28 PM

Can you make a moving spell with a cad?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:28 PM

"Right. Sorry."

Yeah I can.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:28 PM

lets not experiment with anything that could catch armsmaster in its range now

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:29 PM

Ones that propel the target, and ones that teleport them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:29 PM

he's gonna be in a bad mood for the rest of the tinkering id imagine due to that mishap

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:29 PM

I'd probably go to the training room to experiment with them, of course.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:29 PM

Can you subtract the safe landing component?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:29 PM

I'm not about to use them in the Lab.

There is no safe landing component built in.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:30 PM

Of course there is

Example move the egg from point a to point b

You need that component to make sure the egg isnt throw out like a bullet (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:30 PM

Well, there's 'anti-splinching', but no 'anti-telefragging'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:30 PM

modded minecraft has plenty of stuff that can telefrag yeah

and plenty of launchers as well

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:30 PM

Higher speeds need more mana, too.

So that'll have to wait until I can get some gold.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:31 PM

Okay

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:32 PM

I mean, I could make the bullet now, I'd just need a better CAD to test it with.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:32 PM

Yay (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:32 PM

I won't be able to debug it yet, but I can prep for it.

For the record, object size doesn't affect how fast it goes. Big things and small things go just as fast.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:33 PM

Now thats the marvel of the cad you add or subtract some components and it can produce new products

Austin For the record, object size doesn't affect how fast it goes. Big things and small things go just as fast.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:33 PM

Even better

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:33 PM

There's an upper limit, though.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:33 PM

How big?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:33 PM

im considering how to patch up things between you and armsmaster - maybe asking him whats up from the earlier discussion would open a door for that?

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:34 PM

Maybe

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:34 PM

tactfully of course (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:34 PM

None for singular living beings, but there's a 1m^3 limit for non-living matter.

He seemed kinda frustrated by the CAD thing.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:34 PM

Maybe with an accel spell it could make it become actual bullets

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:34 PM

Did his power keep him up or something?

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:34 PM

Most likely

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:35 PM

it mightve just felt like he was bashing his head against an invisible wall

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:35 PM

Ah.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:35 PM

Could you give him tips?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:35 PM

I'm, uh, not really sure how to handle this. I feel like nothing I try to say will really help. He's moved onto other projects, by the looks.

I could write out some documentation on CADs?

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:36 PM

Well try to make a basic guide and gift it to him

Yes oh god yes it would be helpful

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:36 PM

documenting as much as possible for him might work as a good gift

hes a smart guy, he can probably make sense of it

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:36 PM

Also try to include all the principles of the magic

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:36 PM

Actually yeah, I could just document all of my powers.

Well, CADs first, since they seem the most useful overall.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:37 PM

including the principles of magic while not calling it magic would be a pain in the ass

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:37 PM

True

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:37 PM

documenting other aspects of your power would make for good further gifts

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:37 PM

I mean, I could just swap out the words.

'Magic' and 'mana' for 'exotic energy', that kinda thing.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:37 PM

given they can be replicated by people who arent you

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:37 PM

Yep

Make sure its only paper or not in the red

Because the snake

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:38 PM

Yeah, I might half-finish a few other totems and then work on power documentation.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:38 PM

probably has software based backdoors he has tattletale look over or something

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:38 PM

I'll keep it in my inventory.

Shit, he does?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:38 PM

yep

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:38 PM

I'll be careful, then.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:39 PM

(Can I put the wiki of irregular here to help him?)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:39 PM

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:42 PM

Well then you are on your own don’t know that one

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:42 PM

All the 'tricks' - that is, things that have an affect on the world - are Minecraft-specific.

Applying potion effects, for instance.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:42 PM

Good to know

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:43 PM

So stuff like aerokinesis is out.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:43 PM

Shame but not a terrible loss

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:43 PM

It's still very nice.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:44 PM

question @Forge, does the potion effects thing with PSI synergize with all alchemy mods?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 03:44 PM

It's different means for the same effect.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 03:45 PM

The healing guns turn mana into a regeneration effect, for instance.

I could also get the same speed effect as the Horse totem from a speed spell.

Well, there's better movement options in Psi, but it can do speed effects too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:46 PM

meant that more as, could austin get new effects if a potion provided new ones

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 03:46 PM

Good to know

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 03:47 PM

like being able to CAD out a withering effect

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:14 PM

Huh, that might actually happen. The CAD has access to a bunch of vanilla effects, but I might learn how to program more effects as I get new powers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:15 PM

yeye

hm... i think i figured out a thing you could do to get armsmaster back in a good mood, regarding a piece of info we have on one of his projects

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:16 PM

Oh?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:16 PM

confirming whether said project works out once its done, but first we gotta get some deets about what it is to you (edited)

has to do with certain s-class threats

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:17 PM

Hmm... He mentioned psychic shielding a bit ago, Heartbreaker?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:17 PM

nope

its wider-scale than that, and will probably outlive him in usefulness assuming earth bet doesnt get wiped out

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:18 PM

Oh, Leviathan?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:18 PM

not just leviathan, but yes

this is also a collab project

think back to what we told you about dragon, as well

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:18 PM

Endbringers in general, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:18 PM

when we were tryina tell you she was an ai and yes, in general

software, not hardware (edited)

endbringers are something of a thinker blindspot in general

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:20 PM

Lie detector? Or something bigger than that. Body language detector, for knockoff mind reading?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:20 PM

cant predict where they hit as of this moment

its definitely bigger than reading body language

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:20 PM

A prediction program?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:20 PM

prediction program yeah

though theres also a thing regarding body language

that wont pan out

at least, not against endbringers

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:21 PM

Huh. How so?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:21 PM

the endbringers have one of the most powerful thinkers out there

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:21 PM

Ah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:21 PM

you think ziz wouldnt coordinate them? or that they wouldnt try to trip up people, keep things in reserve?

limited usefulness close range, better usage long range

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:22 PM

...Are they holding back?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:22 PM

macrohydrokinesis would be able to pop people like balloons

and if ziz can only predict/affect stuff close to her, how would she pick cities?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:23 PM

Fuck.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 04:23 PM

Yay

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:23 PM

still, this is helpful info and good news you can bring him

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:23 PM

So, we're all boned, is that it?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:23 PM

oh no, endbringers have a weakness

a few tbh

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 04:24 PM

A really big weakness

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:24 PM

Which is?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:24 PM

they have something in common with certain kinds of donut, the ones without the hole

a core

what could hurt alexandria?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 04:25 PM

(Metaknowledge on [Endbringer cores] was not sent.)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:25 PM

dang it

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:25 PM

A creamy center?

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 04:25 PM

Yes

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:25 PM

sort of, just not creamy

maybe a better comparison would be comparing them to the earth as you go down

the earth has layers leading to a rather important core

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:26 PM

Okay, I get it,

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:27 PM

'what hurts alexandria' is important to this discussion, too

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:27 PM

Layers that are increasingly difficult to get though surrounding an incredibly tough core?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:27 PM

yep

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:27 PM

Annhialator effects?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:27 PM

i would say 'all or nothing' effects, but yeah p much

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:28 PM

Okay, makes sense.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:28 PM

i think i told legend to watch over flechette earlier?

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:29 PM

Not that I recall. Alexandria did, though. She said that Flechette could be very useful against the Endbringers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:29 PM

ooh

yeah i guess austin let her know before they got mind whammied or something

there's no 'could be' about it though

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:30 PM

What was that?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:30 PM

the middle sentence get censored for you?

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:31 PM

No. I'm asking what you meant by it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:31 PM

oh

hm. it'll be pretty upsetting for you to learn about, let me preface with that

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:32 PM

Is she a member of Cauldron, then? If she's associated with the ones who turned me into a Case 53.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:32 PM

yeah. 'the road to hell is paved with good intentions'

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:33 PM

You're mistaken. Case 53s are made by a man called William Manton.

He stole a collection of vials from Cauldron and tested them on people.

He's trying to reverse engineer them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:33 PM

actually, uh

have you read up on the whole siberian situation from the file austin sent

because im pretty sure case 53s showing up after a s9 attack consistantly would be an obvious pattern (edited)

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:34 PM

Give me a moment.

Ah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:35 PM

yeah

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:35 PM

From what I've gotten, Cauldron experiment on people to perfect their power-granting formulas.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:35 PM

whats the player list on earth samech look like?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:36 PM

Then they use something or someone called 'The Slug' to erase their memories.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:37 PM

after hero died, id imagine things went from 'make the world a better place' to 'keep as many people alive as possible'

idealists dying tends to result in a shift in tone towards something darker and more desperate

basically continue to be pissed off at manton about this, but there's more factors than you were allowed to be aware of

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:38 PM

Nobody's online on Samech, but there's a bunch of people offline there. Doctor_Mother, Contessa, Number_Man...

Alexandria, Eidolon...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:39 PM

its another cauldron world

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:39 PM

Actually, do you have the server list too.

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:39 PM

...I do.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:40 PM

if i had to imagine, theyll probably feed you a line about cold calculus and saving the world by any means necessary or something

you might end up talking to contessa, and frankly im as worried about her as i am the simurgh

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:42 PM

...

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 04:42 PM

Yay for darkness

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:43 PM

I have no idea what to say.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:43 PM

take a breather

like i said, this was upsetting

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:43 PM

Good plan.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:44 PM

maybe get a drink or relax at home once you get off work

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:44 PM

Yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:44 PM

this is definitely the sort of thing you'll want to delve into with a plan in mind, and that probably cant happen minutes after that bombshell

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:46 PM

I'll just avoid the others for now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:46 PM

fair enough

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:46 PM

The less they see me, the harder it'll be for them to figure out that I know.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:47 PM

true, but remember, alexandria's a thinker, and eidolon can be one if he felt like it

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:47 PM

So the less chances I give them to catch on, the better.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:47 PM

ye, and lack of evidence can be taken as evidence too

not to mention the mess that is fucking precog

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:48 PM

Fucking thinkers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:48 PM

those two words tend to come up a lot

honestly yeah

like so many problems would be solved without thinkers

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:49 PM

I can't believe they kept this from me.

Are they all in on it?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:50 PM

yeah, more or less all-in as i understand

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:50 PM

Fuck.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:50 PM

theyve probably basically been brainwashed or thoroughly convinced that this is the right thing to do

i put contessa and the simurgh in the same category for a reason

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:52 PM

Contessa?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:52 PM

yeah, she came up earlier

she actually has a lot of similarities with the simurgh

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:52 PM

Who is she?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:52 PM

thinker: run

she has a nice hat and suit

you mightve seen her with the doctor

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:53 PM

The woman in the suit? The Doctor's bodyguard?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:53 PM

yep

scariest thinker out there that isnt an endbringer

i say that with jack slash in mind

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:55 PM

The Doctor said that her bodyguard would be able to face us if something happened. I thought she meant she could slow us down enough for the Doctor to escape.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:55 PM

she could probably kill you and alexandria

within a few minutes

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 04:56 PM

Oh.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:56 PM

yeah youre probably getting the feeling that her power is basically an 'i win' button

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 04:56 PM

The censor has been very lenient on this.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:57 PM

no kidding

this is possibly the clearest weve been able to talk about this

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 04:57 PM

The censor system has been undergoing revision, with multiple persons of interest in the chat group.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:58 PM

oh boy, i feel like that means we're not gonna be able to discuss anything later

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 04:58 PM

The revisions were already complete.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:58 PM

or. wait by multiple people of interest you mean legend and austin?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 04:58 PM

Yes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:58 PM

oh awesome! ty

got worried over nothin

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 04:59 PM

Np. The system was censoring Terraria and Legend's messages from each other, and that was stupid, so I fixed it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 04:59 PM

thats fair

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:00 PM

You're the one behind this, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:00 PM

well, behind austin's powers

most of em

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 05:00 PM

I can't really give straight answers on much, but yeah, I gave Austin their out-of-context powers and made this group chat.

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:01 PM

Out-of-context powers?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 05:01 PM

Like, non-Parahumans-related powers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:02 PM

you ended up outside the 10^80 universes your powers work in, in case you have any disbelief about that

austin's out of context powers let yours reconnect

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:02 PM

That makes sense. Is Steelheart another out-of-context power, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:02 PM

yeah

we know of some others, gamer and diamond

travelling villain and boston ward respectively

theres more but we arent sure who

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 05:04 PM

Forge has confirmed all three of them as out-of-context, this isn't guesswork. Anymore.

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:04 PM

I see.

Would it be beneficial for you to meet with Diamond at some point?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:04 PM

probably

would be handy to get diamond's measure, see if we can invite em in here

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:05 PM

I can call in and help arrange something, if you want.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 05:05 PM

Thats good

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:05 PM

current plan was to meet them while setting up waypoints around the country (edited)

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:06 PM

From their files, they're both relatively new and are a bit of a loner, so it wouldn't be hard to arrange a transfer.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:06 PM

that works out pretty well, ty

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:07 PM

There were already plans to move the ward Feint to Brockton Bay, so it would be easy to send him to Boston and Diamond to Brockton Bay instead.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:08 PM

...that ones a new one to our ears, whats his powerset look like?

wait, nvm

thought that was another newcomer but we got a wiki on this stuff, hes on it

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 05:09 PM

Master/Shaker 2, on probation.

He wasn't coming to Brockton originally?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:10 PM

nope, theres a reason we know flechette is good against endbringers

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 05:11 PM

What do you know about Feint, then? Because he's slated to arrive tomorrow.

Or was.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:11 PM

basically jack shit other than he has a bad attitude (edited)

and a general outline of his power

As Feint, he wears a royal purple and white costume and a helmet designed to look like two masks with each mask facing a different direction.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 05:12 PM

Huh. Did he not come to the Bay in the original timeline?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:12 PM

no

like i said there's a reason we know flechette is good against endbringers

we're very brockton focused

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 05:13 PM

She fought one? The next Endbringer attack isn't for another month. That shouldn't interfere with Feint arriving in Brockton tomorrow

Or he was, before now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:14 PM

if i recall rightly, she fought leviathan in the bay

im wondering why feint was on his way... (edited)

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:15 PM

He had a sudden change of character for unknown reasons, apparently. He was removed from the Anchorage Wards on fear of Parahuman interference.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:16 PM

...oh

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:16 PM

He was being sent to a city with a bigger Protectorate presence.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:16 PM

Hm. he may be one of the newcomers then - a bit of a butcher scenario there

no 'swap to who killed you' but, potentially overwritten by an insert

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:17 PM

His powers aren't on record as having changed. They tested for trump effects.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:17 PM

something's up with that situation, you can quote me on that

it could be he hasnt gotten a power that he could demonstrate from any achievements thus far

anchorage doesnt seem like itd get much action

that, and, well, austin was holding back some of his powers before

Malaki 17-Jan-21 05:21 PM

How hard is it to make draconic chickens?

...huh, have you made a chicken catcher yet?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:25 PM

thats still a WIP, hasnt even been started on just yet i think

Malaki 17-Jan-21 05:25 PM

Right but he can just make one now with a stick an egg and a feather (edited)

Also would the chicken nests from the chicken mod work on nonfertilized eggs as long as there is a heat source

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 05:31 PM

Oh, yeah, I don't need fertilized eggs at all. I was planning to pop down to the cafeteria to grab a couple dozen regular eggs.

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:32 PM

I'll grab more details on Feint's situation.

A couple of weeks ago, he started acting very paranoid, though he wouldn't say why. Several hours later, with no apparent cause, he broke down into tears and his personality shifted.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 05:34 PM

That sounds bad, like really fucking bad ...huh, there is a Fate/Stay kinda magic mod in a FTB modpack

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:34 PM

yeah that sounds like possession that feint was aware of

he was in M/S quarantine for a while wasnt he

Malaki 17-Jan-21 05:35 PM

If he wasnt he shouldve been

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:35 PM

Well, saying that his personality shifted is both right and wrong - he had the same interests, and most of his personality traits were similar. However, he was making more of an effort to be heroic, and he became more willing to work around his ODD.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 05:36 PM

Yeah, see that sounds like something that should trigger M/S protocals

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:38 PM

okay, a good but concerning change

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:44 PM

It very much did/

That's why he was removed from Anchorage - getting him out of range of a possible master.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 05:45 PM

Says here that there was something he was avoiding talking about.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:45 PM

did he specify that he wanted to go to the bay?

Malaki 17-Jan-21 05:45 PM

Did he request Brockton?

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:45 PM

No, Brockton requested him.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:46 PM

oh

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:46 PM

They wanted more staff to help deal with the buildup of villains.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:46 PM

huh. yeah that makes sense, brockton is going to become a train crash at the rate its going

thats not even taking into account leviathan hitting it

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 05:47 PM

So, the thing he wasn't talking about. The notes say 'possibly the master in question'.

Think he was mastered? Or is he a sponsorship himself?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:48 PM

bit of both tbh

breakdowns like that dont come from nowhere

Malaki 17-Jan-21 05:48 PM

Mhm

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:48 PM

Diamond's civilian identity existed before she got her powers, the latter wouldn't be out of the question.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 05:49 PM

Might have a Silverbell!Coil scenario (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 05:50 PM

Tommy taking over that world's Coil's body?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:50 PM

yep

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:52 PM

Except Feint reportedly retained most of his personality traits, and his powers didn't change. He was able to give his MS code and answer all personal questions asked.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:52 PM

hm

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:52 PM

He was just a lot more well behaved and ashamed of his past actions.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:52 PM

might be more of a fusion than outright takeover

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 05:53 PM

With what we know, that sounds more likely than a master who induces changes of heart.

Either way, Anchorage is far enough away from every other area sponsorships have been in that it probably isn't a ripple effect from one of them. This is almost certainly the doing of a sponsor, one way or another.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:56 PM

yee

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:57 PM

A master that causes people to have changes of heart for the better is very out-of-line with other powers.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 05:58 PM

Well, yeah, but if you have a power that just inverts personalities it might do that

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 05:58 PM

no, most of his personality traits were intact

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:58 PM

His personality wasn't inverted. He's just more repentant.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 05:58 PM

Well, yeah im just giving an example where that could happen

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 05:59 PM

Terraria's term 'change of heart' is rather apt, in fact.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 05:59 PM

Wait...that sounds familiar

God it reminds me of the bs in mlp fim whenever bad guys had a change of heart

Take Over (Battle Theme) - Persona 5 Royal

If you've been hanging out to listen to the Persona 5 Royal battle theme in all it's jazzy, rockin' glory - then look no further! Here's the full version taken from the P5R stream earlier, enhanced and cleaned up for your hearing pleasure! This is 'Take Over' performed by Lyn and composed by the legendary Shoji Meguro.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:06 PM

Lavenza is from 3 right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:06 PM

lavenza from 5

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:06 PM

Ok

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:06 PM

She's the fusion of Caroline and Justine.

Okay, pros and cons of sending Joker a friend request.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:07 PM

Is Philomon's counter part playing his games again? Cause I'd rather not deal with another Hitler

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:07 PM

Just to clarify, this game thing isn't a competitive thing, is it?

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:08 PM

Kinda it is a game to determind the fate of mankind in 1&2

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:08 PM

they mean the sponsor system

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:08 PM

Oh

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 06:08 PM

System Philemon isn't the original Philemon, just as System Calamity isn't the original Calamity. The game is not competitive at all. Sponsorships may ally however they like.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:09 PM

O thank Christ

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 06:09 PM

Systems simply take relevant names.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:09 PM

...could you use PsiMetal to make bootleg evokers?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:09 PM

Can we get a list of system names, if you're willing to give them out like that?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:10 PM

lucky blocks, malaki

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:10 PM

I have no clue how evokers are made. It's very much outside my realm of expertise.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:10 PM

why care about the bootleg when you can get an original

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:10 PM

Lucky blocks is a good thing to bet on, though.

Dubiously Motivated Pika 17-Jan-21 06:10 PM

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:20 PM

The only problem would be using personas at all. Even though I can see it, I'm locked out of Mementos.

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 06:20 PM

Okay

Maybe you’re a shadow?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:20 PM

Huh, The Nether is on the list.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:20 PM

no, thatd be ridiculous

Lucky_Plucky21 17-Jan-21 06:20 PM

True

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:21 PM

they need the app

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:21 PM

Oh neat!

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:21 PM

I can't get there either, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:21 PM

not unlocked for ya yet

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:21 PM

Yeah.

Illusion barriers are also locked out.

Earth Reckoners wasn't, though. Neither is Earth Firefight, which is listed right after Reckoners.

I guess I can go to other Earths freely, but not other dimensions.

Anyway, should I send that friend request to Joker?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:23 PM

i think so, yeah

even in a worst-case scenario, joker's still a good kid, even if hes more vigilantism-inclined

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:24 PM

Wait...didnt Pink Diamond Have a storage dimension in the lion and Lars' hair/mane

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:24 PM

think thats more a pocket dimension thing, not sure itd count as far as worlds go

does circus' pocket dimension show up on the list?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:24 PM

Nope.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:25 PM

Hmm, am confusion, but ok

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:25 PM

its probably a size thing

individual palaces may not make up dimensions, but mementos is planet-scale

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 06:25 PM

Neither the grass dimension nor any gem rooms have been created.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:25 PM

Huh.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:25 PM

ohh

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:26 PM

Well the gem room thing wat more like a holodeck but not, with a very rudimentary VI running it

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:26 PM

Actually, I just looked up Palace, and the only one there was 'Q.J. Irvine's Palace [Deleted]'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:26 PM

Oh My God

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:26 PM

I mean, there were multiple rooms, right?

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:26 PM

That was the guy who is coming to BB

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:27 PM

thats the kid's yeah

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:27 PM

And the gems could go into more than one at once.

Yeah, that's Feint's civvie name.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:28 PM

Well Rose's room had the ability to grant her ever wish, but that's something the other diamomds prolly set up to distract the token baby

Still hate that the space Nazi's got an undeserved redemption arc

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:29 PM

fair enough

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:31 PM

Like seriously it's like looking at the Starwars prequels/orig trig and then saying its fine that Darth Vader was a murderer and helped commit genocide, he did end up killing his boss

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:31 PM

Oh yeah, the diamonds redemption arc was pretty rushed.

They're not even properly redeemed either - they're just playing along with what 'pink diamond' wants.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:32 PM

Yup

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:32 PM

Anyway, Joker.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:32 PM

No idea if this is game Joker or a person who took on their Name

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:33 PM

well, communicating with them is probably something you can do

this isnt someone who uses the metaverse to kill people, otherwise feint would be dead

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:33 PM

If not you, maybe your shadow isnt an asshole

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:33 PM

Yeah. I'm seeing any reason not to send the friend request aside from the fact that I'm technically an 'authority figure'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:34 PM

honestly that probably doesnt matter, sojiro was an authority figure too

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:34 PM

As were a whole lot of other social links, point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:34 PM

joker had several authority figures he befriended - just a select few from the start opted to screw him over severely (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:34 PM

Yeah, there's no reason not to get in contact with Joker, then.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:35 PM

He could just be using Feint to get a ride to BB, we'll see if there are anymore changes of heart in Anchorage or if it starts popping up in BB

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:35 PM

given hes in anchorage, and i wouldnt be shocked if hes getting the same censorship we're getting, doubt it

besides, the decision to move to bb was made by higher ups he wouldnt have been able to target without bringing some heat on his head

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:36 PM

I mean, I think I knew about Worm before my memories were erased.

I got an achievement for talking about it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:36 PM

true, but the point still stands

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:36 PM

Also, I didn't have this communication power until I rolled Mine Together.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:36 PM

Yeah, but space is kinda fucky in the collective unconcious of humanity

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:37 PM

For all I know, I'm the only one with it.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:37 PM

...shit Jack prolly has a castle in there

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:37 PM

Is that a bad thing, though?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:37 PM

if he knew about worm, he'd probably have targeted armsmaster, not feint (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:37 PM

Or, hell, Shadow Stalker.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:37 PM

god yeah

shadow stalker

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:37 PM

Jack is genuinely wanting to end the world, his shadow is prolly a fucking nightmare

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:38 PM

Oh yeah, that's absolutely true. But nightmares can be dealt with.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:38 PM

yeah no i think we can assume this is joker persona 5

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:38 PM

Aiming to do something crazy like fucking open up humanity to Nyx without a sea of souls to protect us

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:38 PM

Ah. Point.

Well, it looks like palaces are only generated when Joker goes into them.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:39 PM

Oh thank God

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:39 PM

yeah, and shadows seem to only envision things from the confines of their palace

tunnel vision based on their worldview making their own little world

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:40 PM

^

Anyway, I'll send that message now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:40 PM

heres hoping for an achievement for contacting another sponsored person

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:40 PM

Problem is i can see Jack's shadow pulling people in somehow

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:40 PM

jack's mainly dangerous because of his thinker power

would his shadow have it? who fucking knows man

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:41 PM

I guess I just need to wait for a reply, now.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:41 PM

I think Jack just thinks he is naturally that charismatic iirc

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:42 PM

that doesnt mean his shadow would be that charismatic

generally speaking palace owners come off as complete dickheads who are utterly delusional

gestures at shido

...honestly his palace could be pretty similar to shido's

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:43 PM

Just glad it isnt Yu, or God forbid the P3 protag

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:48 PM

They accepted the request!

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:54 PM

Terraria: Well, I have Minecraft mod powers that I get over time, but 'Minecraft' sounded too similar to 'Mein Kampf', and I'm in the Nazi capital of America right now. So, Terraria it was.

Terraria: I'm a new member of the Brockton Bay protectorate, I'll be announced later today.

Joker BOT 17-Jan-21 06:55 PM

Malaki 17-Jan-21 06:56 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:56 PM

well, he did help get feint over his issues

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 06:57 PM

This is meant to be a private discussion, right? I can overlook it, as long as it's not dangerous.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:57 PM

i can confirm something about feint's 'mastering' if you like: its gonna be a net positive change

him genuinely tryina get over his issues and do better

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:58 PM

Terraria: I was planning to get in contact with Diamond [a Steven Universe tinker in the Boston Wards], since Gamer and Steelheart are both villains.

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 06:58 PM

Ah, good to know.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 06:58 PM

yee, its honestly probably the only benevolent master effect out there

in this world at least

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 06:59 PM

Terraria: In the end, I decided to send you a friend request with my power in case you responded.

Joker BOT 17-Jan-21 07:01 PM

Joker: Well, I responded. Any information we should share?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 07:01 PM

what joker plans on doing, going forward - you can share your own plans in that regard as well

the series steelheart and gamer draw from

Malaki 17-Jan-21 07:02 PM

Uhh Steelheart is genuinely evil, like his powers make him crazy and evil, he can be hurt by those who dont fear him

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 07:02 PM

I was thinking we could touch bases on sponsorship stuff too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 07:02 PM

yeahh all this stuff seems like good ideas

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 07:03 PM

Terraria: Maybe plans, info on the other sponsorships, and what's been happening with our own sponsorships?

Joker BOT 17-Jan-21 07:04 PM

Joker: I didn't even know someone was sponsoring me. I just woke up in Alaska one day and there were superheroes in the news. I look on my phone for a map and I find the Metanav from Persona 5.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 07:04 PM

...could Joker fix Saint's Teacher mastering/AI fear without setting him off?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 07:04 PM

They'd need to send a calling card first, right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 07:04 PM

yeah

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 07:05 PM

That would tip him off.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 07:05 PM

But he wouldnt think it's related to dragon

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 07:05 PM

to be fair blowing up a chunk of the palace that got stapled on might work just as well

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 07:05 PM

Even so, just the idea that someone might master him could cause him to hurt Dragon out of fear of the master getting at her through him.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 07:06 PM

yeah, lets not risk it

fucker is paranoid

Malaki 17-Jan-21 07:06 PM

Hmmmm...heartbreaker?

Also Joker may be ablle to visit the velvet room

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 07:07 PM

heartbreaker might have brainwash powers in the metaverse

velvet room is all but confirmed

Malaki 17-Jan-21 07:07 PM

Yeah but there are personas for that (edited)

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 07:07 PM

Terraria: I actually have amnesia, so I can't remember the first week of me being here. My power runs on an achievement system, and from what I can piece together, I was kidnapped by a conspiracy and had my memories removed. People in my situation are called Case 53s officially, or usually Monster Capes by the public.

Joker BOT 17-Jan-21 07:09 PM

Joker: Somehow, I'm surprised that the superhero world has a supervillain conspiracy kidnapping and mindwiping people.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 07:09 PM

its more like if lex luthor tried to be a superhero, i think

Malaki 17-Jan-21 07:10 PM

They arent exactly considered villians to the public

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 07:10 PM

Terraria: Actually, out of curiosity, have you heard of a web serial called Worm? Because that's the work of fiction this world is based on.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 07:10 PM

ultimately still pretty damn villainous but supposedly its to save the world oh boy this is gonna be Interesting

Joker BOT 17-Jan-21 07:10 PM

Joker: It's not just a generic superhero world?

Malaki 17-Jan-21 07:10 PM

No, god i wish it was

its a fucked up superhero world in specific

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 07:11 PM

Terraria: I don't remember reading it, but I'm in contact with some people from the world I was from originally, and they've read it.

Terraria: It's a fucked-up superhero world, to be specific.

Malaki 17-Jan-21 07:12 PM

It's like if someone saw how there was no heroes in WH40k and said, yeah but make it a superhero book

Joker BOT 17-Jan-21 07:12 PM

Joker: I think I can infer that.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 07:13 PM

Terraria: At the moment, I don't have any major plans aside from trying to avert any catastrophes that hit Brockton Bay and just helping people in general. I'm going to be making a base on an alternate Earth, though.

Joker BOT 17-Jan-21 07:14 PM

Terraria: The mods I have so far are: Morph Minecraft: Overworld FTB Utilities Minecraft: UI Mine Together Psi Xaero’s Minimap More Furnaces Lucky Blocks Totemic Roost, Chickens, More Chickens

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 08:28 PM

@Forge why is that?

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 08:28 PM

To access a dimension, you need to do it via a proper travel method.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 08:29 PM

ah

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 08:29 PM

You can't disconnect from a server and connect to the Nether, for instance.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 08:29 PM

ohhhh, yeah that checks out

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 08:29 PM

There's two types of other planes - alternate Earths and alternate dimensions. Mementos is an alternate dimension.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 08:30 PM

so i guess its a difference between moving on the x axis and y axis

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 08:30 PM

Yeah, that sums it up!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 08:31 PM

alright, so, rei, i gotta ask: would you have any interest in joining up with the protectorate or anything like that

or more acting as a rogue operative

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 08:32 PM

Rogue operative.

I doubt the government would let a phantom thief just run around.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 08:32 PM

you may very well be surprised, but fair concern

legends in here if you'd be interested in askin - i assume you're mostly wantin to act as an indie hero, yea?

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 08:33 PM

I'll be staying out of the Wards, I think. Shadows in Mementos drop money, and there's safe places in there to sleep, so I'm set.

I guess I'd be a vigilante.

Wait, the leader of the Protectorate is in here? No shit?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 08:34 PM

yeah, no shit

is there a userlist on your end?

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 08:35 PM

Don't worry, the Protectorate have no reason to go after vigilantes for anything but recruitment requests.

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 08:35 PM

No userlist.

Uh

Thanks, man.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 08:36 PM

if i recall rightly, indie teams or solo heros can register themselves so they dont accidentally get attacked by other heroes, yeah?

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 08:36 PM

No problem.

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 08:37 PM

I have no idea how this vigilante stuff works. I've just been going off Persona 5.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 08:37 PM

thats valid

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 08:37 PM

Though I think The Phantom Thieves of Hearts are a pretty good organisation. I was thinking of maybe starting one of my own.

I might move to Brockton Bay, if it's the city Worm takes place in. I'm not really tied to Anchorage.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 08:39 PM

that seems like a smart idea, though id be careful about who you try to recruit - trauma tends to cause superpowers around here, and superpowers tend to exacerbate that trauma - some folks who like bein rebellious might try to burn down the mayor's house rather than start an activist cause

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 08:39 PM

Well shit. Thanks for the tip.

Got a waypoint I can go to?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 08:40 PM

yeahhh... still, we generally know most capes in the bay. if youre a teen lookin for folks your age, we should be able to steer you away from the undersiders

yes i bring up teens because persona 5 is half high school sim why do you ask

lol

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:12 PM

I'm full-on joke flirting, now. I'm now a 'masochistic dyke'. Damn, I'll need to get something with electricity skills, then.

Hey, how do I fuck with them?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:13 PM

dont ask me that

i have no sense of restraint and could feed you info on how to traumatize one of em with a few words

well thats a lie, i have a little restraint

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:13 PM

Eh, fair.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:14 PM

other folks in here though love comeuppance and theres no kill like overkill

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:14 PM

It's a shame Hess is so bitchy, she's kinda cute.

Overkill slaps, tbf.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:15 PM

As a hero, I should probably discourage overkill.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:15 PM

not when it causes psychological damage on a bunch of misguided teens, or plays on it

i cant believe i just called em that

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:15 PM

Hey, you're a hero, right? Got any cool tinker guns from that Arms guy?

And I guess that's fair.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:16 PM

i. you are in a school, that is a worrying thing to say while in an american school lmao

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:16 PM

I'm a tinker myself, actually. I can give you a wand-gun, though I'd need to refit it to look more conventional.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:16 PM

my mood rn:

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:17 PM

I'm a phantom thief. I was going to get model guns, but if I can get a cool tinker gun, even better.

Shadows will probably think cool tinker guns are even more dangerous than normal ones.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:17 PM

how do real guns work in mementos? now im left wondering

infinite ammo cause its real-ass gun?

unless its a revolver, those have 6 shots generally

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:18 PM

Just the same as model guns. I've been using an unloaded gun and keeping the real ammo in my inventory.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:19 PM

oh wild

wait you got a real-ass gun on insertion into this world? (edited)

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:20 PM

Nah, I stole it.

Uh, I mean, legally acquired it.

Definitely.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:21 PM

you really are doing what you can to live up to joker's legacy

considering you got abducted and thrown into a different world tho, understandable (edited)

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:21 PM

Hey, a nasty crimegirl gotta do what a nasty crimegirl gotta do.

The gun was one of the few things I didn't get in Mementos, actually.

I got a real-ass sword in there.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:22 PM

Are You Fucking Serious

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:22 PM

I don't think Sirius Black is in this world, sadly.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:22 PM

harry potter is a real story in this world

well

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:23 PM

He's a bit too old for me anyway, and probably gay.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:23 PM

not real real but

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:23 PM

The books exist, yeah.

If you need a sword, I know how to make them.

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:24 PM

Oh HELL yeah!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:24 PM

oh yeah, i realized we havent actually given you a reason to stay away from the undersiders

basically their boss is gonna try to destroy the bay

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:24 PM

Welp.

What if I steal their boss's heart?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:25 PM

hes a dangerous thinker, so you'd wanna be careful

id compare him to maybe kaneshiro meets okumura in terms of irl threat

with a side of cape violence

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:26 PM

True. If his castle is in, like, a super-secure supervillain lair or something, there's not much I can do safely.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:26 PM

and he has the undersiders and probably travellers at his disposal, two villain gangs

yeah its in an endbringer shelter

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:26 PM

And IRL threats are also A Thing, good point. Ah shit.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:27 PM

well. his lair is one

idk if his palace is

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:27 PM

Guess I'll have to fuck around and find out.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:27 PM

thomas calvert, aka coil, is his identity

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:27 PM

Oh, cheers. There's the name.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:27 PM

hes a bond villain basically

double palace double trouble

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:28 PM

This feels like Death Note. Gotta find out the secret names before I can do anything.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:28 PM

lol

fuck thatd be concerning

death note persona crossover

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:28 PM

Let's hope not.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:28 PM

yeah no we dont need another light

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:29 PM

I'd rather not deal with a Death Note.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:29 PM

hard agree, no matter how many problems it could solve that shit is ethically Fucked

though i wouldnt mind having an l. lawliet here

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:29 PM

Yeah, L is cool.

Now that I've set a waypoint at the PRT base, I'll be having by debut soon.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:30 PM

oo, fun

i assume youll be teleporting on-stage?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:31 PM

I'm kinda nervous. I'm not good with crowds. I will, good guess.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:31 PM

if it helps, try to imagine everyone as big fluffy dogs

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:31 PM

Thanks, that kinda helps.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:31 PM

it works better than imagining everyone naked at any rate lol

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:32 PM

No thanks. I'm not interested in naked people.

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:32 PM

We can agree to disagree, then.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 09:33 PM

I mean you are a teenager, the interest in naked people is kind of hardwired into you right now

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:34 PM

Eh, not that I mind. Maybe if I get my Charm high enough...

Just switched out my anime glasses for normal ones. It's now plainly obvious I'm not this Taylor chick.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:35 PM

lol

well, theyre probably confused

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:35 PM

Oh, they are hella confused.

A teacher is herding me into the school. They sent me to the faculty office to print off a new schedule.

I put the anime glasses back on, and now I'm 'Taylor' again.

I guess I'm attending her classes, now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:36 PM

invasion of the phantom thieves

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:37 PM

Also, I got some Guts from messing with the bullies.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:37 PM

cant say im too shocked - then again, i minmaxed the fuck out of p5

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:38 PM

Gotta love minmaxing. Hey, are there any knockoff Big Bang Burgers around here?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:38 PM

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:38 PM

Fuck yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:38 PM

you eat free if you finish the whole damn thing in a time limit i think

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:38 PM

I know what I'll be working up to, then.

Shame there's not multiple, but it sounds like I'll be getting some proficiency.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:39 PM

we were actually discussing whether thatd get austin an achievement earlier lol

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:39 PM

I'm obviously a cape, so I wouldn't be able to get it for free, but I am allowed to just buy one.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:40 PM

true dat

oh, and a heads up rei

austin's regularly around a lie detector - if you do start committing crimes willy nilly, even if austin wanted to cover for ya they couldnt please dont go doing that, as it would become incredibly awkward

among other things

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:43 PM

Yeah, good point.

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:45 PM

Sure. I'll keep crimes to a minimum.

Well, aside from 'mastering people', I guess.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:47 PM

honestly considering we can point you at villains or would-be villains, i dont think you'll find many complaints

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:47 PM

Sounds good to me.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:47 PM

I'm just using anime thinking time halfway through the conference at the moment.

The reporters are just so loud...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:48 PM

oof

hopefully some folks will get control of em

there should be some protocols in place for making sure case-53s dont get overwhelmed by reporters

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 09:54 PM

I have anime time, it's fine.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:56 PM

im desperately trying to understand nasuverse in fear that shit may end up here

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 09:57 PM

The Nasuverse is in the banned list, don't worry.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:57 PM

THANK YOU SO MUCH

Forge BOT 17-Jan-21 09:57 PM

It's just too busted.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:57 PM

jesus christ yeah

im not watching over an hour for a basic understanding

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:58 PM

Damn, can't blame you.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:58 PM

if you listen closely, you can hear me sobbing a multiverse's length away

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 09:59 PM

...

I think I can hear sobbing, but it might just be Winslow.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 09:59 PM

yeah thats fair

that might be taylor, or some other kid whos bein bullied or has been attacked

gang fights are not uncommon

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:00 PM

If Taylor was here today, I think she'd, uh, answer the role call in her classes.

I think a teacher mentioned a concussion.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:01 PM

bakuda, a bomb tinker, attacked not too long ago

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:01 PM

Bombs? Can I social link her?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:01 PM

you fucking shouldnt

shes batshit crazy and murderous to boot

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:02 PM

Okay, I can hear explosions in the distance. I guess not.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:02 PM

oh shit (edited)

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:02 PM

I'm chaotic good, not chaotic stupid.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:02 PM

It's been like that for a while.

Well, for as long as I've been here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:02 PM

theyre still having school!?

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:03 PM

School is just like that.

They're distant, it's fine!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:03 PM

i.

wow, thats depressing.

i wanna say youre wrong but

fuck, dude

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:05 PM

Even a mad bomber can't stop education! [Quality of education is not assured.]

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:06 PM

now im just sad

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:06 PM

Well, the conference is over.

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 10:06 PM

You are going to winslow, i do not think most teachers there know how to spell education

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:07 PM

howd it go?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:07 PM

Pretty well!

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:07 PM

Yeah, Winslow ain't great.

Nice about your conference, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:08 PM

glad to hear all went well for ya austin - any particularly noteworthy stuff?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:09 PM

Not offhand, it just went pretty smoothly.

The Director had to answer some nasty questions for me, but otherwise, it was good!

*Boom!*

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:09 PM

You jinxed it, didn't you

I'm on my way.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:09 PM

fuck

of course theyd bomb that shit

austin, waypoint

it may be a timestop bomb

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 10:11 PM

Austin, are you alright ?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:11 PM

Yeah, I'm fine.

Set a waypoint in the back of the stage, behind the curtains.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:12 PM

thank fuck

hows the damage?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:12 PM

Reporters scattered, Oni Lee's here with some sort of flaming slime bomb.

There's several fires.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:13 PM

crap

rei, got any persona with all-enemies attacks?

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:14 PM

Better, it's Mabufu. Light ice damage to all foes.

Perfect for stopping fires.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:14 PM

oh that just solves everything

fuck yeah

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:14 PM

Time to make my dramatic entrance!

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 10:14 PM

Do you have something with that you can blind him ?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:14 PM

blinding him would stop him

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:15 PM

Uh, is Dizzy good enough?

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 10:15 PM

Not really no

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:15 PM

it might help

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:15 PM

I'm keeping him on the move with my CAD.

One shot from it is enough to stop one of his clones.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:15 PM

if he cant see where to go, all the better

does morph work on the clones?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:16 PM

No, thankfully.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:16 PM

yeah, thats for the best

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:17 PM

Fires are out, and Oni Guy is gone.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:17 PM

hell yeah

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:18 PM

Time to make a dramatic introduction to all the reporters here.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:18 PM

Can I endorse this?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:18 PM

an official thanks would probably work well

tizian.s 17-Jan-21 10:19 PM

No, you should not make it apperent that you know them

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:19 PM

Of course you can! I just saved people, and this is the perfect opportunity to make a dramatic introduction.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:19 PM

legend, if you're peekin in, what do you think?

Legend BOT 17-Jan-21 10:19 PM

Since you've been helping people so far, then it should be fine.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:20 PM

awesome

love it when public perception backs the flamboyant

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:21 PM

I'll speak to you on behalf of the Protectorate, then.

I'm not sure that saying you're here to steal the hearts of villains with no other context is, uh...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:22 PM

yeah, that can be interpreted a whole other way

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:23 PM

It's fiiiine.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:23 PM

All those creepy old men like Coil and Kaiser?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:23 PM

i guarantee you like half the villains in the city will creep on you for that

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:23 PM

Dammit. I'll clarify.

Well, thanks for helping make me look good in front of the reporters.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:24 PM

No problem...?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:25 PM

lol

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:25 PM

Thanks!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:25 PM

considering the earlier freudian slip im not sure whether or not thats a good thing

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:26 PM

Well, we'll be bringing you up in a meeting in the near future.

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:26 PM

Infamy! Fuck yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:26 PM

i mean, currently its fame, so

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:26 PM

Same difference.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:26 PM

well, one nets you more or less murder attempts, so

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:28 PM

True, true.

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 10:28 PM

Okay, I have some time to kill before the Wards get off school.

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:28 PM

I mean, I can take them, but the basic ones in Feint's palace were a lot weaker.

Ow.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 10:46 PM

might have something to do with her aggressiveness

Rei BOT 17-Jan-21 10:46 PM

Guess so. Or maybe it's because she knows me and doesn't like me?

Ow!

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 11:02 PM

Oh, it's just a location. Nothing's going to be on the Bet side.

I wanted to pick a place where I could shift dimensions privately and safely.

Well, time to start making some chickens.

I have some raw eggs, I just need to chemically treat them to get the tier 1 chickens.

I also have some wheat seeds that I can plant for chicken feed down the line.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 11:21 PM

does buildcraft include autofarmers?

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 11:22 PM

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 11:23 PM

Oh yeah, probably.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 17-Jan-21 11:23 PM

or start harvesting crops

Austin BOT 17-Jan-21 11:24 PM

Bone white chickens lay eggs that crumble into bone meal, which works like Minecraft bone meal.

I just need to wait for them to hatch and grow up, and then I can start using that to speed up the farming.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 03:04 PM

Something interesting I remembered regarding Reckoners type powers: you can make tinkertech-type "technology" using their tissue samples. Wiki:

A motivator is epic-derived technology that consists of a living tissue sample culture that is kept alive inside of the device. When the correct voltage is applied, the host epic's power can be used with the right equipment. If the tissue sample is from a still living epic, is causes severe pain and is easily found by the host epic. Some examples of motivators are the one used with the Gauss Gun, Spyril, and the suit made to provide Prof's full epic power set. The mobiles are an exception to rule about needing a motivator. Knighthawk keeps a few mobiles with motivators and the others work without.

Might be useful in some way.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 05:03 PM

If not for the powers, then for the part where it causes pain and attracts them to the motivator.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 05:03 PM

could do that and throw it on a hellworld

Lucky_Plucky21 18-Jan-21 05:03 PM

True

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 05:08 PM

I was thinking more along the lines of setting a trap, or at least choosing the grounds where you fight them again. Legend said Steelheart was playing dirty, right? He could go all out, while the Triumvirate could not in fear of hurting civilians. If you could lure these people out to uninhabited island number 338, that wouldn't happen. Even better if there's a trap waiting for them there. If you throw it to a hellworld there's a chance they could bring the hellworld back with them. People coming in from Earth Reckoners is really enough hellworld on its own.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 05:10 PM

So, if we manage to injure him but not kill him, it's fine as long as we get a blood sample.

Alternatively, we could go after his allies.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 05:13 PM

Legend BOT 18-Jan-21 05:13 PM

The fact he didn't do it at the same time as Regalia suggests some kind of time limit.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 05:13 PM

Dawnslight- A man who was put into a coma at a young age. Despite being in a coma has a full sense of things around him, and he created the plants which created the glowing fruit found in the city. He also makes radios work without batteries, and makes the spray paint glow. He could also communicate by fortune cookies that occasionally grew on the trees. He is one of the few epics that uses his powers for good instead of his own needs. The city worshiped him and considered him a God of some sort, often praying for his help in times of need.

..yknow. i just had a thought

this steelheart guy may not actually be steelheart

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 05:16 PM

We're assuming that they have the same weaknesses as the people from the series. It's probably true for Firefight and Nightwielder, as those weaknesses make thematic sense, but Steelheart/Calamity seems a little more iffy. For one thing, in the books, Calamity and Steelheart are two completely different people. Calamity is the source of all powers and is some kind of cosmic entity with no real weakness, while Steelheart is some random guy who got powers and steel-ified Chicago. In this world they appear to be one and the same. Which means they may not have the same weakness.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 05:19 PM

Maybe Steelheart gets Calamity to give other people powers like how Forge gives me powers?

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 05:19 PM

I don't think Steelheart(Bet) is any of the people in that series in particular. His steel powerset is definitely from Steelheart(books), but Steelheart couldn't grant powers. Remember that Steelheart is probably a sponsored; he probably has his own internal logic governing his powers that doesn't quite match up with anything in the books. Perhaps he unlocks Epics from his sponsor, and then can give them out to people as he pleases? (edited)

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 05:19 PM

Legend was sent to Earth-R by a panicked Firefight, it seems.

So Steelheart doesn't have any crazy interdimensional powers himself.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 05:28 PM

I can confirm Firefight, in the books, was the one with interdimensional powers. The only one, even. Though she didn't realize it til later in the series. Steelheart didn't have any interdimensional stuff. You're still assuming that Steelheart can only have one Epic powerset active at a time. We're pretty sure he's a sponsored, assuming limitations like that could be fatal.

Lucky_Plucky21 18-Jan-21 05:29 PM

The one whose weakness is that they don’t fear him

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 05:29 PM

if he can switch out powersets like eidolon or combo them together to cover weaknesses that easily then it doesn't matter what we do, we're fucked

He's only been observed using Steelheart's powerset. If he can switch them out, he hasn't shown it.

Lucky_Plucky21 18-Jan-21 05:30 PM

True

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 05:30 PM

Yeah. That's what I was actually getting at earlier with the whole Steelheart may not have the same weaknesses thing; Epic weaknesses are always a personal fear of the Epic in question. If it's a different person, they may not have that fear.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 05:30 PM

well, if uv rays still work against the shadow guy, i think we can assume weaknesses are still the same

An epic can surpass it if they face their fear head on

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 05:31 PM

his power is balanced, somehow. he does have a weakness

it might even be permanent

That’s the problem The epic powerset if function by those rules the weakness may not be present or it isnt permanent

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 05:32 PM

based on the vast majority of capes, like hell hes gotten over whatever his Big Personal Issue is, if that is his weakness, in like a week and change max

Lucky_Plucky21 18-Jan-21 05:33 PM

Is a possibility we have to consider

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 05:34 PM

i did consider it, thats where my response comes from - i highly doubt he doesnt have a weakness, otherwise forge would've straight up lied about him being balanced

Lucky_Plucky21 18-Jan-21 05:34 PM

It could still be balanced

Hours, Minutes, Seconds well, if uv rays still work against the shadow guy, i think we can assume weaknesses are still the same

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 05:34 PM

Yeah. We have to consider that the people on Bet are not "natural" epics. They are granted power by a sponsorship system. The system may just wholesale lift the weakness and powers of the Epic and just copy and paste them onto the person granted power. It's not going to work exactly like in the books. Getting over your fear was something that took Firefight like two and a half books of constant character development. Even if it's possible for Bet Epics to do that, it won't be soon. Hey, can Rei figure out a person's fears through Persona BS? That would help here.

No, Reckoners powers are a lot more conceptual than Worm powers are. I suppose it's possible that it would work, but I wouldn't bet very much on it. Invincible probably means invincible, especially in Steelheart's case.

Singularities: One Singularity needs 12,900 - 14,700 blocks of one material. Even with multiple (Ender) Quarries it will take a huge amount of time. The mod RFTools adds a way to create worlds with Redstone Flux and relatively cheap materials. The most important thing is to continually power them. The power consumption will increase with the ores generated in the world. In the first randomly generated world, it is important to search for the ores and land generation Dimlets. After finding specific Dimlets for e.g. "Iron Ore" it is possible to create worlds entirely made out of Iron Ore. After that, one needs to set up Quarries or an RFTools Builder Block with Tesseracts and connect it to an AE2 network.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 05:45 PM

Wait, this doesn't sound balanced at all. @Forge, any reason for that?

A factor in balancing power is effort and resources needed.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 05:59 PM

Actually. Any non-player entity that touches a nether portal is instantly teleported to the nether. The Simurgh is not a player entity. Psi spells can place blocks. Make a spell that places a large obsidian portal frame directly around the Simurgh. If you can, make it so the spell also lights it on fire. Instant Simurgh to Nether! Of course, you'd need some way of breaking the portal on the other side. And presumably you would do this after you've gotten all you want from the Nether, as you won't want to go in there anymore.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 06:01 PM

(pika about to open up with Austin in fight with Lung and Oni Lee) (I can feel it in my bones)

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 06:58 PM

So! While Pika's gone, back to portals! I think the best case scenario is to teleport Endbringers to a void RFTools world. These have the advantage that if you stop powering the dimension projector thing, entities inside the dimension suffer Critical Existence Failure as the dimension stops existing. This is in contrast to Mystcraft Ages, where the best you can do is have a huge amount of instability and hope the Endbringer dies by lightning strikes explosions. Not likely. It's also in contrast with Dimensional Doors worlds, where you can just mine down to get to Limbo, from Limbo to the Overworld, and from the Overworld to any other place accessible from there. I'm not sure whether the Overworld is Earth Bet or not, but that's not a good idea either way. So RFTools dimensions are the way to go for the destination. However, RFTools teleporters are shit for forcing an Endbringer through them. You have to stand on a block for a few seconds. Unless you can improve on that time through real innovation, you'll need other methods. Mystcraft portals are the best I can find here, unfortunately. In combat, you'd need to build the portal frame, place a book receptacle block, and put the linking book in it. They can be any size, which is a plus. They don't leave a way back on the other side, which is a plus. They aren't as basic as a nether portal, which is a minus if the goal is to construct a portal faster than the Simurgh can react.

Dimensional doors might be a possibility, if you can find a way to make them way bigger. They should be a bit faster to set up than Mystcraft portals. If you can't upscale them that's probably out. Blood Magic Teleposers might work? They swap two volumes of space with each other. The volume that is swapped is 7x7x7 meters at the highest level. I forget how big the Simurgh is, and it almost certainly isn't enough for Behemoth. Still, telefragging might be good thing if that's a thing that can happen with the adaptaion to real-ish physics. Most other interdimensional travel methods that I can remember don't actually allow you to freely choose the destination dimension, which is vital here. They're mostly just portals to unique dimensions.

"Well, if it is something bad, you can teleport and I can fly. We'll be fine."

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 07:42 PM

Maybe it's because you eat nothing but fish. Your fishy aura is attracting an army of cats to stalk you.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 07:42 PM

Let's hope it's just that.

Palaces are tied to locations. I can't go into it. 'Alan Gramme' has a palace, though.

Shit. If Bakuda is stalking us...

check the minimap actually

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 07:44 PM

I thought that no one in the ABB wore white so I was kind of relaxed. But then I looked at our redacted info source.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 07:44 PM

that'll show you

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 07:44 PM

Oh my god I'm stupid. Minimap.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 07:44 PM

Just us, as far as I can tell.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 07:44 PM

it should show all mobs nearby

its weird as fuck its just yall on that street

shes gonna bomb the street

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 07:45 PM

That's also concerning though. Minimap generally also shows passive mobs. Such as cats or dogs.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 07:45 PM

There's some animals around, yeah. Vermin, pets, strays...

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 07:45 PM

Okay good.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 07:45 PM

Wait, do sneaking players show up on minimaps?

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 07:45 PM

If there was nothing it woulda meant someone can hide from the minimap. Which would be a whole new level of concern

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 07:46 PM

It would defeat the purpose of sneaking if they did.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 07:46 PM

to be fair, half the purpose is to not fall off blocks

and not all mods are designed with pvp in mind

thats a good point though

Forge BOT 18-Jan-21 07:46 PM

Sneaking players do not show up on minimaps.

They do. At least on the minimaps I know of. Although ther's one that doesn't show enemy players

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 07:46 PM

Are we being paranoid, though?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 07:46 PM

what does bakuda's costume look like?

if it has white in it, its not paranoia, and youve heard 3 clinks

3 clinks that showed up on your thinker power

3 Important Clinks

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 07:47 PM

She wears large, opaque goggles and a metal mask with a gas-mask filter and a braided cord of black, yellow, and green wires over her shoulders.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 07:47 PM

Clink is actually a pretty weird sound for a cat to make, you know. They avoid stepping on loose stuff.

Yeah. That's the main part of the costume. Sometimes she's depicted wearing white body-armor, sometimes not, but I don't remember if she has that at this point in time

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 07:48 PM

Saw the white thing again, and a flash of something metallic on it. Nothing in the alley when I checked it.

I was too slow to check the minimap.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 07:52 PM

Well, I freed the cat's leg and gave it some fish.

Looks like it.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 07:53 PM

Thing is, a stray cat is neither very bad nor very good. We still have that roll to worry about.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 07:53 PM

good is probably either catching the abb with their pants down, or nothing

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 07:53 PM

A stray cat now doesn't decrease the chance of Oni Lee later.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 07:53 PM

Well, the patrol is nearly over. It could've been 'nothing' or 'cat' or something.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 07:55 PM

This normal cat got stuck in a can and followed you anyway. It probably is a normal cat, but it's an abnormally trusting cat in any case.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 07:56 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 07:58 PM

achievement time?

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 07:58 PM

And now we know that a high roll is a good thing, for the future!

I feel like a completely uneventful patrol might not have an achievement. Would probably get one for fighting first parahuman, or maybe even first arrest of a gang member, or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 08:00 PM

i mean, making a mineshaft got an achievement

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 08:00 PM

Yes, but that's a key part of minecraft.

Well, we'll see. Forge will tell us soon if got one.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 08:01 PM

patrols are a key part of heroism, so the very first one might be noteworthy

at least in this world

Forge BOT 18-Jan-21 08:03 PM

What Was That Sound?: Your first patrol. Nothing bad happened. Nothing at all. Not a thing. Right...? Next milestone, roll twice and pick your favourite.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 08:03 PM

Huh.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 08:03 PM

Half achievement. Not bad.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 08:03 PM

Forge BOT 18-Jan-21 08:04 PM

Nothing bad happened. Probably. Don't worry about it.

Dubiously Motivated Pika 18-Jan-21 08:05 PM

(I'll be honest, 9 was the one roll for 'nothing happens'. Then everyone got scared of rolling a nine, and... Well, you saw what happened.)

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 08:05 PM

Yeah, there aren't any cat masters in BB. I don't think anyone could have used the cat as cover. Something bad could have happened completely unrelated to the cat, I guess. Coil checking you out again using his power.

Dubiously Motivated Pika 18-Jan-21 08:06 PM

(Well, there's a chance I could've revised the 9 roll to 'nothing bad you could see', but if I did, I'm not about to confirm it.)

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 08:06 PM

(bruh) (i want my adrenaline back)

Dubiously Motivated Pika 18-Jan-21 08:07 PM

Well, that was an Experience.

Dubiously Motivated Pika 18-Jan-21 08:08 PM

(High rolls are generally better.)

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 08:09 PM

If you capitalize Experience like that I'm going to think you actually got minecraft xp for your patrol

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 08:09 PM

Ha, I wish.

Anyway, it's time to meet up with the Wards.

It was going to be yesterday, but after Lee attacked, things were thrown a bit out of wack.

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 08:18 PM

You're meeting a bunch of superheroes, and your response is 'eh, alright'???

I mean, you ARE a superhero, but really?

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 08:18 PM

I mean, they're all perfectly nice, but I'm meant to be an authority figure to them.

There's a distance here.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 08:19 PM

Also, superpowers don't inherently give you a larger than life personality. They're probs mostly just normal teenagers who happen to have powers.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 08:20 PM

Oh yeah, definitely.

They're just teens.

...Diamond just asked if I've read Worm before. It looks like she's taking the initiative here.

...Are you in public? It seems unwise to discuss this in front of everybody. Chatroom? (edited)

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 08:22 PM

I said yes, and she asked if I wanted to talk about it later.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 08:23 PM

Close enough. As long as the place you talk about it at isn't bugged.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 08:23 PM

She offered to do a tinker collaboration. I guess we'll be doing it in the Wards lab.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 08:25 PM

Mmm. I would personally prefer your DM power like you did with Legend at first, rather than any place in the possibly bugged PRT building. I guess if it has tinkertech blocking monitoring like Miss militia's office it's acceptable though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 08:26 PM

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 08:28 PM

All the Wards are hooked into my chatroom power now too. I can flick her a DM pretty easily. I can't actually see their own private chats or anything since I'm not the admin, apparently.

they'll be teens and kids

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 08:29 PM

It's probably for the best that they don't have an adult in there at all times.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 08:29 PM

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 08:29 PM

I can make gems myself.

Sapient ones.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 08:58 PM

I've never meaningfully interacted with SU, so I really couldn't say how your power would grow However, Austin's sponsor has stated that all powers are balanced. Your current powers don't match with Steelheart's Trump BS or even Austin's growth, so it's safe to assume you have some method of growth.

Nora BOT 18-Jan-21 08:58 PM

I've stayed away from making sapient beings, though.

Nora BOT 18-Jan-21 08:59 PM

I mean, Steven gets pretty damn strong by the end of the series, and he'll be able to get stronger beyond that.

I guess my 'growth' would be figuring out all that power and growing into it.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 09:00 PM

We have a possible mod with a no-sell insta-kill sword and invincibility armor. Does top tier SU match with that? I honestly don't know.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 09:03 PM

Yeah. But we haven't got Draconic evolution or Botania or Witchery. None of the raw power mods. We got a lot of like. Lateral power that's more useful than you would expect, but nothing that's going to blow a hole in a tank.

Nora BOT 18-Jan-21 09:04 PM

first 15 arcs and fan knowledge of the rest

I'm afraid the only modpack I played regularly was Stoneblock 2, so I won't be much help with some of the mods.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 09:05 PM

arc 15: The Slaughterhouse Nine are gone, but now Taylor is convinced that Coil has no intention of releasing Dinah. The Undersiders agree to back her up when she's ready to move against him. She even recruits a new ally in Parian, after donating money to cover treatment costs for the rogue's family members who were altered by Bonesaw. Her day takes a turn for the worse when Coil orders her, Trickster, and Genesis to deliver a message to the mayor. Intimidating a public official at dinner with his family would be uncomfortable enough, but Tattletale also gets a strong impression that Coil intends for Skitter to be killed in action. And then the Protectorate shows up...

Nora BOT 18-Jan-21 09:05 PM

After the S9 arc and the thing with Triumph, but before Coil is taken down.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 09:05 PM

We still have the wikis, so we can all theoretically be a lot of help. I don't know how many others actually played a lot of modded minecraft though.

Still. Searching Stoneforge got me a possible mod list, so good enough for me? Would be nice not having to ask Forge for confirmation on every mod.

Nora BOT 18-Jan-21 09:26 PM

The mods list was originally from Stoneblock 2, but I ended up purging a bunch of mods and adding a bunch more I liked.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 09:27 PM

ohhh

yeah dimensional doors got added a while ago, in case youre wondering

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 09:28 PM

Eh. If you don't have anything on Steelheart or Gamer, it's probably not going to be worth that much. Maybe the secret to your own growth, though that's the kind of thing I would have expected you to remember before.

I think Pika 2 is taking this in a really different direction than you were planning.

Nora BOT 18-Jan-21 09:29 PM

Yeah. The original Austin wasn't going to go to the Protectorate at all. Unless they have Chest Transporters, then they probably don't have the same rolls either.

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 09:30 PM

No chest transporters.

Nora BOT 18-Jan-21 09:30 PM

randomperson44 18-Jan-21 09:30 PM

See I've been complaining about bad rolls, but on this list there's a lot of mods that are minor tweaks. Less useful than Chest transporters. So it could be much worse.

All of our mods have proven useful in some form so far. Except morph. but that's for moral reasons.

My tech is too easy to identify, and I don't have that many handheld weapons in my arsenal. Huh, that's a thought.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 10:46 PM

glory girl might be onboard for the idea of all that

then, maybe expanding the mineshaft? you could make a mob spawning room if you wanted to test that out

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 10:52 PM

There's no mob spawning, thankfully.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 10:52 PM

ah, thank god

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 10:52 PM

I could make a pizza, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 10:52 PM

id say establishing some hangouts between pika and rei would be a good idea, confidant boost and all that

so, maybe a rec room in base gimel?

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 10:53 PM

Yeah, that sounds good.

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 10:54 PM

Oh FUCK yeah.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 10:54 PM

I've already made a sleeping area and a kitchen area, I might as well expand it into a whole house.

ok thats like the most popular mod for terraria itd have been a good indicator of whether or not you could dig to hell (edited)

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 11:01 PM

Okay, I finished up the rec room. It doesn't really have any rec stuff in it, or furniture at all, but it's there.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:01 PM

it is a room for recreational activities

some assembly required

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 11:01 PM

Point.

Not going to make tables from fences and pressure plates? Or chairs from stairs?

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 11:01 PM

Sure, why not.

Actually, I could just make stone tables and benches.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:02 PM

i wonder if theres an achievement for building a home

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 11:02 PM

It shouldn't be too hard if they're just cubes of varying sizes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:02 PM

base achievement

right

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 11:02 PM

lets not check for jack's palace, just in case

we dont know his name anyways

his full name, anyways

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 11:14 PM

Jacob Smith. His identity is public.

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:14 PM

Palace.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:15 PM

hm

you'll want to establish some rep as the phantom thieves before you tackle them

that way jack and co take it seriously when you go for em

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:16 PM

Oh yeah, absolutely.

I'm not tackling these sick fucks until I'm WAY stronger.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:16 PM

actually, you'll probably want a very sizeable team so you can drop the message that you're stealing their hearts while you're in at least jack's palace

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:16 PM

Good idea.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:16 PM

honestly idk why the phantom thieves never canonically did that - it seems like a very clever trick for getting in and getting out

then again might cause defenses around the treasure to get raised

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:17 PM

Yeah, palaces get fucky after you send a calling card.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:17 PM

99% MAD

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:18 PM

I could probably give it a shot with Sophia or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:18 PM

thats an option, ye

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:18 PM

Get Nora to drop off the calling card or something.

I don't think I have enough finesse for that.

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:18 PM

It's fiiine.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:19 PM

could just like

get a burner phone

find out sophia's civ #

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:19 PM

Oh yeah, I could just slip it in her locker or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:19 PM

yeah

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:20 PM

The problem here is that it needs to be something she can't just blow off. A text from a rando ain't going to cut it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:20 PM

calling her out as shadow stalker in her locker might work, but might also leave her civ id busted

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:21 PM

Yeah, I was considering that. If nobody looks over her shoulder when she reads it, her ID might not even get busted!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:21 PM

3 am text from a burner phone

she'll be at home for sure around then

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:22 PM

Actually, I might grab Charlotte and drop into her palace after school. Huh, that could work, yeah. Especially if it's to her Wards number.

Nora BOT 18-Jan-21 11:22 PM

I could get you her number if you need it.

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:22 PM

Cheers!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:22 PM

plus you can drop the burner phone in her palace to get rid of it

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:22 PM

Oh, that's perfect.

It would really fuck with her, too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:23 PM

if nothing else, it'll be a thinker dead-end

with the precogs running around the city, frankly, fucking good

Rei BOT 18-Jan-21 11:24 PM

And since I'll essentially be dropping it in her brain, she might even believe she found it when she didn't, and then realise a master is messing with her, which opens her treasure up even more.

By the way Nora, change of topic, but are you from New Zealand too? Me and Austin are, and we're wondering if there's a pattern there.

Nora BOT 18-Jan-21 11:25 PM

point

didnt wanna assume

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 11:43 PM

I don't think Oni Lee has a limp last time I saw him, so that's a slight point against it being Lee.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 18-Jan-21 11:43 PM

any recent fights mightve changed that, but fair

least we know you can heal brain damage

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 11:43 PM

Last #9, we were all jumping to conclusions about Bakuda and Mannequin, but it was just a cat.

Yeah, looks like it.

The odds of that actually being Lee are pretty damn low.

if it was lee, he probably will go out of his way not to attack you in the future (edited)

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 11:45 PM

Maybe if I see Lee again [and that wasn't him], I could try to heal him and see if that unfucks his brain.

Austin BOT 18-Jan-21 11:59 PM

Yup. Well, it looks like we have three gold chickens now, so I can put one in a roost to lay golden eggs while the other two breed.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:00 AM

i feel like i ought to make a comment about golden geese

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 12:00 AM

Oh yeah, the Roost set feels like a literal golden goose.

Redstone isn't magic at all, think Armsmaster will appreciate a sample?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:01 AM

with a warning that his power likely wouldnt work with it, yeah

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 12:01 AM

Yeah, good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:01 AM

or wouldnt be fond of cooperating with it

im not sure how magical redstone is

@Forge is redstone magic?

Forge BOT 19-Jan-21 12:02 AM

It is not.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:02 AM

oh

he might have a shot of cracking that for personal use then

at least with his power involved

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 12:02 AM

Yeah, redstone is reactive with magic, but so are a whole lot of other things.

But it's not magic in and of itself.

I guess I'll drop some off, in case he can use it. Actually, Nora, do you want some too?

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:04 AM

Sure. Might as well.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:04 AM

...crystallized redstone

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:04 AM

That's a thought.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:04 AM

might make for a hell of a battery, or hell of a power source

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:04 AM

I think there are mods that straight-up have redstone crystals in them, so it could be good.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:04 AM

nice

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 12:05 AM

I'll drop some off. I put the redstone chicken in a roost a while ago, so I have a decent stock of it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:05 AM

iron chicken roosting too?

remember, iron can be used to boost lucky blocks

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:06 AM

yeah, thatd be a good idea

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 12:07 AM

I have the two other gold chickens breeding for stats too right now, so we'll hopefully end up with a whole lot of gold very soon.

redstone fiber-optics anyone?

reacts to heat too, doesn't it? redstone torches and all

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:09 AM

Redstone signal loses out a lot over longer distances, but it's near-instant over short distances.

Oh, it has all sorts of interesting properties.

I think I might try to make bigger crystals of redstone, see if that does anything cool.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:11 AM

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:12 AM

Thanks.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:12 AM

gold + redstone = clock, but iron + redstone = compass? some potential there, i can feel it

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:13 AM

Ooh, redstone torches can be used as instant repeaters. Very nice. Oh yeah, redstone and iron make a very nice magnet. I can see it helping with the internals of a clock too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:13 AM

redstone + gold can also work with tracks

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:13 AM

I think that giving some of this to Armsmaster might've been the right choice, if his shard can wrap its head around it.

in general redstone creations seem like a good idea to show off

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:15 AM

Oh yeah, redstone is great.

I'm having trouble getting it to work on a small scale, but that's not my area of expertise.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 12:18 AM

Oh, true.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:19 AM

I think I might mount a dispenser on my mech. It can store a lot of ammo in it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:20 AM

hundreds of rounds, at least

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 12:20 AM

576, to be specific.

Well, assuming they stack up to 64.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:21 AM

bullets are generally a lot smaller than arrows, and minecraft physics are funky

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:22 AM

I'm going to be using custom capture rounds. They're a little bigger than bullets.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:23 AM

ok, so same difference mostly

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:23 AM

Not by much, but a little bigger.

They expand into hard-light nets that last for a while before dissipating.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:23 AM

that gemtech?

why am i asking it seems like gemtech

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:24 AM

Kinda? I had to innovate a bit to make them, but yeah.

I was trying for containment foam, and then, sticky web nets, but neither was really gelling.

So I ended up making these. I'm pretty proud of myself!

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 12:25 AM

Nice job!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:25 AM

that is a pretty nice innovation, ye

as a thought: i think redstone fiber-optics would potentially result in unlimited redstone power down the whole line due to heat generated by light

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 12:26 AM

Ooh, there's a thought. Not very efficient, but it's a thought.

Don't worry, it's not in the base.

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:11 AM

That’s worse

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:11 AM

not anywhere near it?

armsmaster isn't liable to end up setting it off?

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:11 AM

Nowhere near it. Not above or below it either.

I'm a prankster, not malicious.

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:11 AM

Attacking the boss outside of the lab and probably in the thing he resembles a civilian life is an attack to a protectorate member in their civilian identity

They will hunt you for that

Or at least the one responsible

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:12 AM

i've had experience with other pranksters who don't know when or where to draw the line

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:12 AM

Or if is a prank that doesn’t present any parahuman intervention then he will become paranoid

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:12 AM

it ended with severe trauma and lessons learned

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 01:12 AM

When did she first make the :3 face again? There could be a hint there.

Rei :3

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:13 AM

here

you fucked with the lucky block or hid it away

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:13 AM

...

Yeah, the lucky block is missing.

Is this a paranoia prank or something?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:13 AM

austin, never make a lucky block again if you aren't planning on immediately using it

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:13 AM

Agreed.

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:13 AM

Yep

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:14 AM

i straight up warned you not to do that before, and look where we are

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:14 AM

Dammit. I should've listened.

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:14 AM

And there will be reckoning

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:14 AM

Rei. Where is the block.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:14 AM

i'd like to reiterate: lucky blocks spawn death traps on unlucky rolls

this isn't a prank, it's potential murder

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:15 AM

It's in Earth Gimel's version of Alaska. It's fiiiine.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:15 AM

okay, i can relax a little about that

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:15 AM

I left a waypoint there, and they carry over between worlds.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:16 AM

honestly probably best off over there anyways, if we make the likely incorrect assumption nobody else will ever travel to earth gimel alaska

because thats just how shit like this works

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:16 AM

I mean, there shouldn't be anything aside from plants and animals here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:17 AM

dimensional travel

firestorm proves it's possible for others

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:17 AM

Point.

Well, let's hope that doesn't happen.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:17 AM

you already learned your lesson from this - don't make potential wmds without intent to use em

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 01:18 AM

Wait, aren't there Reckoners-brand alternate universes? Firefight is the only dimension-traveler I remember from The Reckoners, so maybe it

Oops

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:19 AM

yeah, there are, we found that out already

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 01:19 AM

Maybe it's a shard situation. Shards can only move along the X, epics can only move along the Y.

Or else, why make the Reckoners-style AUs?

The pyrokinetic illusion she summons is from one of the Reckoners AUs, so it could be something like that.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:20 AM

Huh. Even so, there's still other dimensional travellers.

I'll keep the WMDs under lock and key.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:21 AM

preferably, just dont make em until you have other ways of storing them extradimensionally that dont empty on death

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:21 AM

Yeah.

Or if I can defuse them right afterwards.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:22 AM

just, in general

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 01:22 AM

I don't have any more work hours left, so I can't stay in the lab anymore.

I'm keeping a watch on Rei.

Dammit, I keep thinking about how I'd write situations.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:23 AM

maybe just try writing your own version of stoneforge?

fanfic is harder than quests, i know, but it could help

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 01:23 AM

I'm probably too biased by now to make any proper predictions.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:24 AM

still, your own work could provide some startling insight here and there

worst case scenario you can upload it as cape fic

get praise for how realistically you write people using meta-knowledge

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 01:25 AM

Ha.

Writing fanfic about real people kinda squicks me out, and I feel like other me would hold back less on 'fictional characters'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:26 AM

fair point

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:26 AM

Any predictions?

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 01:26 AM

Want some?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:26 AM

go for it, you may be able to out-thinker me

lol

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 01:27 AM

Hah, well, I have a home advantage.

I feel like the lucky block is a sitting bomb, waiting to go off at the moment that creates the most 'interesting things'.

Could be later, but it'll probably be sooner.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:28 AM

It's fine, there

Fuck!

There's not a single person there to mess with it.

And you're with me right now. You know I can't mess with it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:29 AM

honestly, i agree with pika (edited)

this thing is a chekov's gun

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:29 AM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:29 AM

just get it out of the way

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:30 AM

Yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:30 AM

with luck it'll just spawn a potato wishing well

i mean if we're unlucky, we've nuked earth gimel's alaska, but

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:30 AM

Uh, are there any memetic effects in any of the crossover things?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:31 AM

persona 5 basically relies on memetics

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 01:31 AM

And there's psychic stuff in The Gamer too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:31 AM

no vonn neumann swarms i know of, but reckoners is a bastard

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:32 AM

I was just wondering if we should avoid looking at any messages in this chat. @Forge, any protections on this thing?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:32 AM

lets not delay

waiting will let this bomb go off

we dont want that

Forge BOT 19-Jan-21 01:32 AM

There are protections between this multiverse and other multiverses.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:33 AM

But not this one.

Right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:33 AM

i doubt it'll be a complete apocalypse scenario, bad luck is probably as capped as good luck

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:33 AM

So if something gets into the chat, we could be in danger.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:33 AM

otherwise it wouldn't be fairly balanced

Forge BOT 19-Jan-21 01:33 AM

Correct.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:33 AM

and death loops wouldnt be fun

just go for it

otherwise it's all but guaranteed to go poorly for us

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:34 AM

Okay, nobody from this multiverse look at the chat. Just as a precaution.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 01:34 AM

I'm getting some sort of vibe from this. Not sure what kind.

I'll get out of the chat, but I'm not sure how I feel about it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:21 AM

...did that wipe his short term memory

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 19-Jan-21 02:21 AM

"You fell asleep standing still."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:22 AM

i was gonna say we're gonna have to let armsmaster know we're basically trying to recruit you, rei, otherwise 'surprise! lucky block in alaska!' makes no sense

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:22 AM

"Right. We should keep searching for Terraria."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:22 AM

and like hell can we come up with an explanation out of thin air

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:22 AM

"Has he found whatever he was looking for yet?"

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:23 AM

Uh

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:23 AM

or...

he could dismiss it like that

and his short term memory could be gone

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 19-Jan-21 02:23 AM

"It's been found, yeah."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:23 AM

iim going to fucking lie down.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:23 AM

God, I need to lie down.

Okay thinker

Okay, I think I see the pit.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:24 AM

if youre gonna ask for an excuse why youre in alaska

i got jack

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:24 AM

And he has the lie detector too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:24 AM

so heres hoping he doesnt ask

yeah

so you'll probably need to help him out of the pit and let him know you're tryina recruit rei and got pranked for the effort

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:24 AM

Well, time for some technical truths.

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:25 AM

"Terraria. There you are."

"Would you care to explain what's going on?"

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:26 AM

I'm still worried about what came out of the lucky block.

We haven't gotten an answer yet.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:26 AM

it wouldnt tell us, i dont think

maybe it was a sleep potion or something

armsmaster seems to have all his facilities

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:27 AM

Maybe? I mean, Forge confirmed that an 87 is good, right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:27 AM

no

we confirmed that by seeing results of prior die rolls

this could be horrible

different rules or whatever

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:27 AM

Can we ask?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:28 AM

@Forge would you mind telling us the dice rules on lucky blocks?

Forge BOT 19-Jan-21 02:28 AM

Information on dice rolls cannot be presently disclosed.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 02:28 AM

Fuck.

For all we know, it just released a zombie virus or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:28 AM

rei

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 02:29 AM

Dammit. This is my fault.

It was a stupid idea anyway.

What if the wind had knocked it down? Or an animal got at it?

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:29 AM

Well, you know better now, right?

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 02:30 AM

I've...

I've always been the type of person who uses humour to cover for things. There's been a whole lot of shit to cover, so I used a whole lot of humour.

I thought it would be funny if the cube went missing, and since it was in fuckoff nowhere, it would be fine.

...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:31 AM

never assume anything

this might, keyword might just be a lesson leaned this time

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 02:32 AM

Oh yeah, it definitely is.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:32 AM

it could be worse, like you said, and i wouldnt be shocked if it was

@Austin can you get permission to heal armsmaster? he did kind of doze off for a second there

despite whatever stimulants he uses to keep standing

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:33 AM

Good idea.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:33 AM

for future reference, if we say something might be a WMD if used wrong, the thing to do is not use it in a prank

i dont think anyone in here would bullshit you on that mark

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:34 AM

"Long story short, something went missing, so I was looking here for it."

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:34 AM

"And here is?"

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:34 AM

"Alaska."

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:35 AM

"Alaska?"

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:36 AM

"I've been playing with my power. I found a way to set waypoints at different latitudes and longitudes."

And it's even true.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:36 AM

ooh, nice

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:36 AM

It just has way too much fiddly maths.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:36 AM

yeah true

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:37 AM

'Coordinates' are in relation to the sun or the center of the universe or something, so they change too fast to be worth anything.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:37 AM

might wanna offer to continue this chat somewhere warmer

?

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:37 AM

"We should probably get back somewhere warmer."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:38 AM

i do hope your brute power dealt with the cold, at least somewhat

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:38 AM

Yeah, I can take the cold pretty well.

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:38 AM

"Yes, we should."

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:39 AM

"Uh, want me to show you around my base?"

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:39 AM

"The Captain already gave me the tour."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:39 AM

@Captain Cuddlesworth could you point out how armsmaster fell asleep for a bit so austin can offer to heal?

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 19-Jan-21 02:40 AM

"You fell asleep for a bit, there. Do you want Austin to heal you?"

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:40 AM

"..."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:40 AM

ty

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:40 AM

"We can get back to the lab, first."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:40 AM

...kinda sus

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:40 AM

"Sure. Let's go."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:41 AM

what was armsmaster supposed to do in your base?

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:41 AM

Just look around, really.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:41 AM

okay

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:41 AM

Take a tour of what I was doing.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:42 AM

please god let this be a sign that a moment of relaxation can be had

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:42 AM

Let's hope so.

We're in the lab, and I healed him.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:43 AM

im praying that this isnt a yeerk situation like from animorphs

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:43 AM

Either way, something happened with the lucky block there. Since it was randomly rolled, it could've been anything. God I hope not.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:44 AM

He still shows up as the player Armsmaster on my minimap, so that's something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:44 AM

either this is a nasty surprise that is going to probably get people killed down the line, or more paranoia fuel

Paranoia Fuel BOT 19-Jan-21 02:45 AM

"Mrao?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:45 AM

that cat is psychic

frankly i suspect the former out of the options there, but theres probably also options im not going to end up considering

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:46 AM

"If that's all, I'll be getting to sleep. I have a strict schedule I need to keep."

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:46 AM

"Yeah. Sorry for the trouble, the timing wasn't great on my end."

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:47 AM

"Then endeavor to do better next time."

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:47 AM

"Right. Good night!"

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:47 AM

"..."

"Gh..."

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:48 AM

"Are you alright?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:48 AM

or its just gonna fucking kill him right now i guess

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:48 AM

"Headache. It's fine."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:48 AM

its a yeerk thing

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:49 AM

"Uh, I just healed you, so you shouldn't have a headache. Maybe you should get it checked?"

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:49 AM

"I said it's fine."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:49 AM

i cant imagine any neurological parasite would have a good time with his shard

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:50 AM

"Can you at least do a brain scan or something? Just in case."

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:50 AM

"Fine. You're being paranoid over nothing, but fine."

"I have a prototype brain scanner that was never approved. It's meant to identify parahumans, but it can be used as a general purpose brain scanner."

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:51 AM

I... have no idea what the readout means.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:51 AM

he probably has something to parse it

if hes done the research to make it, he likely understands it

still, the readout is there now - if something is wrong, theres proof of it

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:52 AM

Okay, here's a summary message.

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:53 AM

'Corona pollentia detected, active gemma detected. Confirmed parahuman. No other anomalies detected.'

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:53 AM

honestly can see why the thing was scrapped, but thats some impressive tech - way outside his specialty thats a relief

still, might wanna let him know redstone is a thing for when he wakes up, alongside an apology for the extreme concern taking up his time (edited)

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:54 AM

"Are you satisfied now?"

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:54 AM

"Yeah. Just wanted to make sure, since it looked like you were in pain."

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:55 AM

"I'm fine. If that's all, I need to sleep. Not everyone has a special power that lets them stay up all night."

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:55 AM

"Right, sorry."

I already sent him the redstone when I sent some to Nora, so no apology gift there.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:56 AM

ah

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:56 AM

"Night."

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 02:56 AM

"Good night, Terraria."

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:57 AM

Well, that went poorly. At least it didn't nuke us.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:57 AM

im going to end up being paranoid until we end up with word of forge or something that everything is fine

Forge BOT 19-Jan-21 02:57 AM

Information cannot be disclosed.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:58 AM

Fuck.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:58 AM

admittedly the brain scan is a relief but fuck this entire scenario

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:58 AM

Yeah.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:58 AM

Let's hope it wasn't a soul-yeerk or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:58 AM

...we could check his palace (edited)

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:58 AM

Like, there's secretly a Harry Potter SI and Armsmaster just became a horcrux or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:59 AM

im sure he has one

colin wallis

if hes in mementos rather than having a proper palace, then that makes things easy

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:00 AM

Yeah, Mementos.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:00 AM

I mean, he's nowhere near Kamoshida levels of messed up.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:00 AM

yeah, true

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:00 AM

Actually, it's a pretty close thing.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:01 AM

...we should get a start on defiant early

hes still in mementos, he'll still be relatively easy

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:01 AM

God, yeah. No idea how, but Defiant is great.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:01 AM

...

Okay, this is normally where I'd make a joke about going deep into something, but damn, he's pretty far in.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:02 AM

oh

so his part's locked off then?

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:02 AM

Far enough in that we can't get there yet?

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:02 AM

Locked off for now, but if I get a bit more notoriety, I can get in there.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:02 AM

2 locks? 3?

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:03 AM

Just one.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:03 AM

ok

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:03 AM

I could probably get in by beating Shadow Stalker's palace.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:03 AM

okay, probably wanna focus that down, then

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:03 AM

Despite the shadows' strength, the layout is first dungon-tier.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:04 AM

might be able to get you some good gear once we get a +100 lucky block

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:04 AM

If you guys helped, we could probably reach her treasure tonight, actually. Then I could send the calling card tomorrow.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:04 AM

that way you can breeze through the dungeon with good armor and weapons and stuff

i say that route get taken

yall need some personas and pika doesnt have the app yet

yea?

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:05 AM

Yeah, not yet.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:05 AM

I can get it to you, dw.

Think you can sneak away in your mech?

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:05 AM

With the inventory thing? I think so.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:06 AM

there's also waypoints to keep in mind

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 03:06 AM

^

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:06 AM

teleporting mech? fuck yeah

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:06 AM

I'll set a meetup waypoint. Get your stuff, and we'll go in.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 03:06 AM

Right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:06 AM

hey question

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:06 AM

On it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:06 AM

can you teleport between saferooms

like, no waypoints required

cause that was a thing in p5, but idk if it translates to reality

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:07 AM

Yeah, we can.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:07 AM

thats fucking amazingg

and the mech lets you bust a hole out the wall like goddamn kool-aid man

heres hoping the sophia thing doesnt push armsmaster into palace territory

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 03:08 AM

Here's hoping.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:08 AM

knowing narrative tropes i give it good odds it will but im still going to bet against those odds in the hope it pays off

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:10 AM

I'm not sure Sophia being mastered would be a tipping point, unless it got him in trouble. Then yeah, I could see that not being great for him.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:10 AM

hes in charge of the wards

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:11 AM

So he's defo fucked is what you guys are saying. Cool.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:11 AM

yknow what

i have a better idea than sophia

amy dallon?

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:11 AM

She shows up, yeah.

Except I've never seen her palace before, and this is the fastest way to figure out if something is up.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:12 AM

hospital, office building

healing is her job, shes practically married to it

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:12 AM

Do we want to get to the bottom of the lucky block thing as fast as possible, before any collateral damage occurs?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:13 AM

...point, but this could cause collateral damage in and of itself

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:13 AM

What, the think I was already going to do?

What damage could it cause?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:13 AM

dude needed to get mannequin calling the two of them the same to pull his head out his ass

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:14 AM

So we take the short route: His palace.

Or, well, him in mementos right now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:15 AM

we should probably also target some villains if any are in mementos

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:15 AM

Oh, good idea.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:15 AM

that way we dont get you labeled as a villain

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:16 AM

Okay yeah, point.

I can see what I can find if Pika can give me some names.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:16 AM

Sure.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:17 AM

Anyway, Sophia's palace.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:17 AM

theres a lot of e88's capes we can drop in here tbh

sophia's palace

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:18 AM

We can reach the treasure tonight if we push. I'm able to sniff out treasure like Morgana can, which is a plus.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:18 AM

please tell me you dont act like mona around treasure either

lol

i wonder if this'll turn into an achievement...

aw

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:20 AM

Aww, boo.

Man, shadows are a lot easier to beat with a mech on your side.

The Morph thing is very obvious when we absorb new forms, and it kinda obscures our vision.

Honestly, if it didn't let me turn into a sexy demon lady, I'd be annoyed as hell.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:22 AM

At least it's only one absorption per shadow type.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 03:23 AM

For each of us. We don't share morph pools.

...Huh? I just got a weird friend request.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:24 AM

The hell? I thought you were the only one who could send friend requests?

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 03:24 AM

Yeah. Exactly.

The name is just a jumble of letters.

Dubiously Motivated Pika 19-Jan-21 03:26 AM

(Aaand it's getting late. I think I'll end it on that cliffhanger.)

(Gn!)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:26 AM

i really dont think you should accept

(gn)

probably a friend request from armsmaster's shard or something

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:36 AM

What's it called?

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 03:36 AM

'gikqaam'.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:37 AM

It looks like a keysmash. One of Hours' kids, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:44 AM

im

i just went to get some fucking breakfast

minus the fucking part

doesnt look like my kind of keysmash either, i typically just drag my hand across a keyboard like aszdxfcgvn kml,;

that looks like someone actually smacking their keyboard

...wait no im being dumb - the gamer system might include friend requests

Malaki 19-Jan-21 05:50 AM

Enderchests are apart of vinella minecraft, you just need blaze powder, obsidian, and an ender eye (edited)

Malaki 19-Jan-21 06:03 AM

Incompatible systems using friend requests to contact eachother making nonsense usernames makes sense

Also the gamer has party invites not friend requests

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 06:34 AM

Maybe it's your Eden shard.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 07:17 AM

Also, I found a veinmining mod on the list of mods. In a minecraft world, ore deposits are small things, like 15 blocks maximum. In the real world, ore deposits can be whole geographical layers of rock. Might be able to get all the iron you'll ever need from few swings of the pickaxe.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 07:24 AM

Also might cause the world's biggest sink hole in seconds

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 07:24 AM

Yeah but if you do it on Earth gimel it'll be fiiine

Malaki 19-Jan-21 07:30 AM

Not if he's in it at the time

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 07:38 AM

Teleport out before things start falling on you?

Malaki 19-Jan-21 07:40 AM

Yeah...unless that vein leads to the core, but u'll def start taking hunger damage b4 then

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 08:16 AM

I don't actually know enough about geology or veinmining in real world physics to say whether iron veins could actually lead down to the core like that. My gut says no; it would go through the mantle first, and liquid iron stuff isn't the same as solid iron ore, so veinmine should definitely stop there. (edited)

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 09:56 AM

Oh, the veinminer mod in Stoneblock! That one actually works on any continuous expanse of material up to two stacks or so, I think. So you can veinmine some dirt and make a giant hole.

And yeah, I don't remember The Gamer having friend requests, just a party system.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 09:58 AM

I guess enter chests are locked behind Minecraft: Nether or Minecraft: End, then.

So, do I ignore the friend request, then?

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:00 AM

There are a different sort of ender chest in the ender storage mod too. Not a personal chest like normal ones though. Shares inventory with all the ones with the same passcode.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 10:00 AM

Oh yeah, those ones that were in Tekkit.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:00 AM

Do we know of any way that the friend request could be harmful?

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 10:01 AM

Harmful memetics. Forge confirmed that they may be a thing.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:01 AM

Ender storage is on the preliminary mod list I found on our Discord, so it's probably on the roll list

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 10:01 AM

Oh, you found an old mod list. Awesome!

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:02 AM

Mmm. Has ~130 mods instead of the 153 or so that should be on the roll list by now, so it's obviously not totally accurate

Forge BOT 19-Jan-21 10:05 AM

Some mods have been grouped together or removed from the old list as well.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:06 AM

That does help; is RFTools one of them? Specifically, are RFTools Builder and RFTools Dimensions grouped under RFTools? Both of those have a lot of utility but they aren't on the old list.

tizian.s 19-Jan-21 10:10 AM

I think that you should accept the friend request, worst case scenario you just unfriend them

Forge BOT 19-Jan-21 10:11 AM

RFTools, RFTools Control, and RFTools Power are on the list.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 10:12 AM

I mean, forge soft-confirmed that harmful data exists. They could, I dunno, power word: kill me or something.

Forge BOT 19-Jan-21 10:13 AM

The Builder and Dimenional Builder are a part of RFTools, so they are in there.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:15 AM

That's good. Later on, at least in our world, the builder and dimensions were also split off into RFTools submods so I was a little bit worried. Oh man. On memetic threats. I just remembered. In The Gamer, people's negative thoughts just naturally gather and form demons in like... a natural illusion barrier. If you don't go and cull them regularly, they inevitably eat each other and eventually grow powerful enough to break through to the real world. And this is a worldwide thing. I hope this particular part of the physics didn't get carried over.

Forge BOT 19-Jan-21 10:16 AM

Natural monster spawning is disabled on all Earths, for all altered physics.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:18 AM

Good.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 10:20 AM

So I guess I have to decide if accepting the request is worth it.

Technically, everyone who's in the chat system already can send friend requests, but if they're in the system, they've already accepted my own friend request.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:22 AM

Deciding that isn't something I can help with. It's probably Gamer, or at a stretch it could be a shard. Or it could be something totally unexpected like random time traveler.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 10:23 AM

Oh yeah, time travel is def a possibility.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:24 AM

You would know wouldn't you. So much time travel in Silverbell, why stop now?

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 10:25 AM

I mean, it kinda came about naturally from Homestuck, so there's no guarantee it'll be in here too, but it could be.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 10:26 AM

So we have one no and one yes on accepting the request so far.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:30 AM

It probably isn't as risky as people are saying. Memetics harmful enough to power word kill you are usually going to be pretty high up on the list powers for whatever sponsorship systems there are.

So I guess I'm a tentative yes.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 10:31 AM

I don't think it'll be deadly. The worst that could happen is that you get possessed or something, and we could probably just visit you in Mementos to fix that.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 10:33 AM

That does not fill me with confidence but okay

Two to one, so I'll probably be accepting it.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:35 AM

Tried putting gikqaam through anagram and ROT13, just in case there was something obvious, but no dice.

Good luck

Damn.

I wonder what it's even from?

Terraria: [Destination?]

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:49 AM

My best guess is still Gamer or shard, garbled because they don't interface with your power correctly.

Worth a shot.

So far, for every one message I send, I get one reply.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 10:55 AM

I guess a point for Gamer is the pfp. The logo for The Gamer has a similar aesthetic, I think.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:55 AM

If things are garbled because of some different data format error or something, it's unlikely that our responses to them are any less garbled than their responses are to us.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 10:55 AM

Very good point.

Maybe all their replies are just variations of 'what are you saying'?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 10:57 AM

actually

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 10:57 AM

It's kinda different aesthetic actually. Gamer has a different hue of green, and has lines of blurry code. This is pure green, and is made of random green rectangles. This is more of a "random eldritch glitchy computer code" aesthetic compared to The Gamer.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 10:57 AM

how fast are their messages coming in

if you're getting keysmash every time you input a message in return, like damn near instantly

well im not sure what that means but itd seem automated to me

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 11:00 AM

Point, it is different enough from The Gamer's logo that it could be something else. Maybe even just generic glitches. The messages maybe take between five and thirty seconds to come through.

A palace forming is a reaction. It is simply a shift in cognition. It has no effect on the palace owner.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:02 PM

thank you

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 12:03 PM

wait, so why'd you think the palace was forming right then

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:03 PM

because defiant as a treasure, uncertain surroundings, 'armsmaster' shifting and changing

normally mementos treasures are pretty small

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 12:04 PM

Oh. I guess. We don't have any evidence that armsmaster is actually changing yet though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:05 PM

defiant could talk, so i think thats probably indicative of something big

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 12:08 PM

I went through about twice that many, but closed a lot during the process

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:08 PM

i just went through like 3 different decoders after you ended up finishing up

none of them worked with the defiant code

3 different vignere decoders that is

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 12:10 PM

I was pretty sure that it was actually a cipher rather than random gibberish; the responses didn't quite look like random noise. But I was bout to give up anyway, since it might have been a custom cipher. When someone makes a new, decent cipher it can take days at the least to solve it , even if you're proficient at solving them.

(I didn't think pika was bout to actually go to the trouble of a custom cipher, but i was getting pretty frustrated)

it might disrupt the deadman's switch though, fuck

tranquilizer darts?

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 12:49 PM

If there's a convenient open window I'd say tranquilizer dart. If there's not she might hear the window opening. Maybe have MM shoot her toes off, or otherwise disable her toe rings. You can use your CAD to heal her after right? (edited)

a paralytic agent might also be best

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 12:50 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:51 PM

she probably uses an interface in her gas mask to select bombs via eye-targeting

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 12:51 PM

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 12:54 PM

Yeah. MM shot her in the hand when she tried to go for her grenade launcher.

She's trying to rouse her flunkies.

MM got the toe rings, at least, and Bakuda isn't wearing her mask.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 12:55 PM

she can't select bombs without the mask

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 12:55 PM

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 01:12 PM

Because she would go on to bomb a lot more people if you did

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:12 PM

Right. Yeah.

Still, there are other ways to do it aside from killing her.

We could've went into her palace and tried to redeem her.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:13 PM

yeah, we could've. she could've also chucked a live grenade up at you and miss militia and killed you all, or executed some of her subordinates for not notifying her the heroes found her

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:14 PM

...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:14 PM

this isn't the worst possible outcome, even if it's pretty bad

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:14 PM

It's not the best possible outcome, either.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 01:14 PM

Yeah. And you did your best to use non-lethal measures. Using her palace is actually way too slow, when she was actively bombing people every day. If we knew she would hold out doing anything for a week it would be different but...

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:14 PM

...

Dammit.

This whole situation is awful.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:15 PM

yep

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 01:15 PM

Yep.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:15 PM

I need to do something. Make up for this somehow.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:16 PM

anonymous donation to her family, once you have the money to spend

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:16 PM

I might do that, yeah.

I do have a job, after all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:16 PM

yeah

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:17 PM

I can defuse as many of her bombs as I can.

Rebuild the places she's destroyed? (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:17 PM

hey, if some of her bombs have left timestop areas, you should be able to pop those bubbles with some of her tech, maybe

Grace BOT 19-Jan-21 01:18 PM

My armour shifts to fit any form within human limits. I can start undoing everything she did.

I'm starting now, with everyone in her lab.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:18 PM

id give her good odds of threatening an endbringer with some of her tech

Grace BOT 19-Jan-21 01:18 PM

...

Right. I can use that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:18 PM

might be able to use it to take down leviathan or behemoth

ziz is a nonoption though

Grace BOT 19-Jan-21 01:19 PM

Yeah. Let's hope.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 01:19 PM

Stick it in an inventory to make sure no one can take it, though.

Grace BOT 19-Jan-21 01:19 PM

Or only put it together all the way last-minute, in case I die.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:20 PM

yeah

hell, could blueprint the stuff and send it to dragon, maybe? once the dragonslayers are dealt with

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 01:20 PM

That works too. I dunno how fast you can finish the last step like that, there's not really much time to prepare for most endbringer attacks.

Grace BOT 19-Jan-21 01:20 PM

I have a voice modulator in my helmet, so I'm pretending to be Terraria while I pull bombs out of people's heads.

Yeah, I can send stuff to Dragon.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 01:21 PM

You aren't pretending to be terraria, you are Terraria. Just in a different form right now.

Grace BOT 19-Jan-21 01:21 PM

Yeah.

It sure feels like I'm pretending, though.

Okay, I'm done here. I need to keep going.

Bakuda's actions aren't yours you know. You might hold yourself guilty for killing Bakuda, don't hold yourself accountable for her crimes though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:23 PM

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 01:23 PM

Don't convince her to back off.

you're going to be practically killing yourself over this trying to work yourself to death if you decide to push forward

Grace BOT 19-Jan-21 01:23 PM

I know I'm not her. I killed her, and now I'm wearing a dead woman's body.

Fine. I'll rest.

maybe do that in your own form, and look up if you can get a prt therapist

Shit, man.

this sort of shit can fuck a person up, so best to nip it in the bud if we can via magic-induced therapy

Mementos base, no palace.

austin already knows persona stuff works, so the calling card thing should be entirely unnecessary

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:30 PM

Would it be, like, okay to do that, though?

id rather not see austin deteriorate into a self-destructing mess over this

Dammit. This is a mess.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:31 PM

if theyre in mementos on route to get a palace, its still a bad sign

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:32 PM

And there's now a palace registered to 'Colin Wallis'. Fan-fucking-tastic.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:32 PM

fuck

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:32 PM

What a shit-show.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:32 PM

oh the plus side - palace means the effect should be more extreme - we may be able to get defiant proper out of this

rather than just less bastard armsmaster

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:32 PM

Yeah, let's hope.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 01:33 PM

We were expecting armsmaster palace though. Or at least HMS was.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:33 PM

Oh hey, Austin's online. You doing okay?

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:33 PM

Nightmares. Wasn't great.

But I think I'm feeling a bit more together, now.

I'm not about to self-destruct, don't worry.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:34 PM

im gonna insist on looking up therapists regardless

we're worried about you

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:34 PM

Yeah, good idea.

I'm wondering if I could go to the lab and see firsthand what wigs out shards and what doesn't.

That way, I can know exactly what stuff to give to other tinkers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:35 PM

thats a pretty good idea actually

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:36 PM

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:42 PM

He'll be placed in an M/S cell for now. Current theory is a bad fugue.

those happen?

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:43 PM

Not usually, but it's the best anyone can think of aside from 'unknown master'.

Fugues happen when a tinker doesn't use their power enough, apparently.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 01:44 PM

So I was predicting Defiant trying to take over. Am I the new Thinker now?

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:46 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:46 PM

had good potential for making you dead rather than stronger

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:46 PM

Not the best first impression to have too (edited)

Defiant BOT 19-Jan-21 01:46 PM

I needed it to get stronger.

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:46 PM

Oh yes but hack it off from a healthy version of you isn’t the best idea (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:46 PM

i understand, but that definitely wouldve had some pretty severe repercussions on your health

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:46 PM

I'm not sure making Armsmaster into Armmaster is the best way to do that.

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:47 PM

Yep

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:47 PM

blood loss alone is a distinct concern

Defiant BOT 19-Jan-21 01:47 PM

I know my body's limits. I had it handled.

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:47 PM

You could try to make a cybernetic enhancer

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:47 PM

you do know your body's limits, but armsmaster was fighting you every step of the way

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:47 PM

Because gods knows they will fight you every step of the way

Defiant BOT 19-Jan-21 01:48 PM

I accounted for that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:48 PM

you did get brain implants, yeah?

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:48 PM

So, uh, maybe you shouldn't try to 'get as strong as you can'. Maybe just as strong as is reasonable.

Defiant BOT 19-Jan-21 01:49 PM

I did. I don't have them again, yet.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:49 PM

that seems like something that could go poorly if he was fighting you

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:49 PM

And he will not accept it

You would accept alternatives?

Defiant BOT 19-Jan-21 01:49 PM

Cranial implants would wait until I had more control.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 01:49 PM

When we said get stronger, we meant more... so that you could think lucidly, and weren't at risk of fading away or something. Didn't mean try to take over and get rid of old Armsmaster.

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:50 PM

Ye

Defiant BOT 19-Jan-21 01:50 PM

I'm strong enough now that I won't fade.

I probably shouldn't go in alone.

or, the general template of one

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:53 PM

Who can you bring rei? (edited)

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:55 PM

Austin and Nora, if they're both free. Maybe the Captain, if we don't mind not being as stealthy.

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:55 PM

I would recommend trying to be as stealthy as possible

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:55 PM

to be fair, so long as you have one waypoint in a saferoom and one when you fight, you can tp the captain in

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:55 PM

True

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 01:56 PM

Wait, tps work in the cognitive realm?

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:56 PM

Not waypoints, but we can teleport between safe rooms.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:56 PM

ah

hm

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:57 PM

So bring or not bring Cap (edited)

I say not bring

Not at least until you find the treasure

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 01:57 PM

What are the consequences of not being stealthy

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:57 PM

A lot more attention

Stronger enemies

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:57 PM

^

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 01:57 PM

more easily detected by shadows yeah

still, stealth attacks are stupid easy to bring the alert level down

with corner peeking at least

it might turn into a balancing act that has you slaying most shadows you encounter

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:58 PM

But with a giant loud iron golem (edited)

I don’t think they could do that

How loud is cap when moving? (edited)

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 01:59 PM

I'd bring Charlotte, but we both need to conserve our stamina for taking out Sophia's palace.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:59 PM

Pretty loud.

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 01:59 PM

So no cap until the treasure is located and the notice sent (edited)

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 01:59 PM

Especially if the palace is going to have a metal floor.

Yeah, it sounds like it.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 02:00 PM

So, just the three of us.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:00 PM

@Philemon question for you: would anyone who awakens to a persona get a basic phantom thief package

ie, enhanced physical abilities while in metaverse mode, the corner hugging stealth thing joker does, so on and so forth? (edited)

Philemon BOT 19-Jan-21 02:01 PM

Yes, they will. It's a case of inherent abilities spreading, not unlike welcoming people into this chatroom.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:02 PM

ah, thank you for clearing that up

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:02 PM

So that's another one of us who can spread their powers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:02 PM

nora can probably do something like that too, id imagine - depends on the method, though

might require yall gettin your own gemstones?

could be an ender pearl for you, austin

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:03 PM

I think I could do something like that?

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 02:03 PM

Good

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:03 PM

I'd need to make a gem - the race, not the item - and bond it with a person.

It would need to be a 'blank' one for it to work right, but I can make those with enough prep.

But it is interesting that we all have ways of spreading our powers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:04 PM

man no kidding

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 02:07 PM

Mhm

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 02:07 PM

Malaki 19-Jan-21 02:10 PM

Enderpear Gems are prolly weird, even by Gem standards

tizian.s 19-Jan-21 02:10 PM

That is something that i always found weird in the SU. Pearls are by definition not gems or minerals or something like that, they are biological, made from a defense mechanism in oysters to protect them from irritants and parasites, they really do not fit in with the rest of the known gem caste, do you guys know why that is so ?

Malaki 19-Jan-21 02:11 PM

Wait...does that mean there is a mother of enderpearl substance?

Lucky_Plucky21 19-Jan-21 02:11 PM

Ye

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:11 PM

Pearls, bismuth, obsidian, pebbles...

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 02:11 PM

those are all possibilities to make Gems out of?

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:11 PM

While gems are called 'gems', there's gems for all sorts of minerals.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 02:12 PM

Also enderpearls are inherently alien, as in not of this plain of existance

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:12 PM

Yeah, they're all gem types. Well, obsidian is a fusion, but you get the idea.

tizian.s 19-Jan-21 02:12 PM

I wouldn't think so. It's called nether quartz, not quartz. And AE2 adds certus quartz which is more like real quartz.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:17 PM

I can make materials that are otherwise behind 'locked' mods. I just have no idea how to use them.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 02:17 PM

Getting the basic minecraft mineral chickens should be a priority then the ones that get you enderpearls for making stuff for AE and the one with the teleportation wand

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:18 PM

also, its been several hours worth of gold gen

you could get ender pearls through +100 luck lucky blocks (edited)

Malaki 19-Jan-21 02:19 PM

Plus most of the basic metals in most modpacks arent exotics anyways

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:19 PM

Uh, I'm not going to go down the whole list, but at a glance, I'd give a tentative 'all of those minerals'?

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:20 PM

Oh yeah, we have enough for a +100 block.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 02:20 PM

The ones youll use the most are prolly iron, gold, copper, and enderpearls

...is Lapis from the show unique in her planitary scale hydrokinesis?

Cause if so, none of that

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:22 PM

Lapis is an anomaly in how strong she is, yeah.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 02:22 PM

I thought the plan was yeah?

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:23 PM

And the planetary stuff was probably because her gem was cracked and it lost all the limiters that kept her from shattering herself from the strain of controlling so much water.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:23 PM

so basically like an eden shard

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:23 PM

Lapis... would not have made it to Homeworld if Steven hadn't helped.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 02:24 PM

Oops, we got sidetracked. Yeah, palace.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 02:24 PM

Also i'd avoid silicone based Gems if i were you

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:24 PM

Shit. You're right.

Good point.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 02:25 PM

So, we have a name, and we probably have a location. Now, we just need a keyword.

What would Armsmaster perceive the rig as?

Malaki 19-Jan-21 02:26 PM

Nora real weak to a S9 attack rn but they most likely arent going to appear in BB rn since they have a perfectly good city in chaos to exploit

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:26 PM

competition

a stage

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 02:26 PM

wait what gem is nora

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:26 PM

nora's pink diamond as far as we know

protag ftw

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:27 PM

I'm a pink diamond. All carbon.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 02:27 PM

yeah diamond has no silicon

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 02:27 PM

Competition and Stage don't work.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 02:28 PM

Her tech, if it is gem based, is a bit weak to sonic attacks, but more importantly has alot of silicon in it

Workshop?

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 02:28 PM

Backroom? Armsmaster doesn't do performances at the Rig, that's where he gets ready to show himself to the world.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:29 PM

Yeah. I'm going to either have to phase that out or avoid the Nine entirely until Shatterbird is gone.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 02:29 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:29 PM

alternatively: pretty crystals to entice and booby trap shatterbird

Or just use graphene or something

Storage drawers are good for endgame chickens when you have more resources than you can hold, but we can afford to wait on that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 02:44 PM

any of em come with bundled mods? (edited)

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:44 PM

I think xtones is an aesthetic mod?

They do not.

Yeah so ex nihilo

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 02:45 PM

Yeah, Ex Nihilo.

tizian.s 19-Jan-21 03:28 PM

I just had a thought, the physics add ons are all accessible by everyone else if they know how to do it, i think it should be prudent to at least try and access stuff we know are universal for all added franchise physics, you guys should be theoretically able to learn how to use the magic from the gamer universe, right ?

Hypothetically, we should be able to, yeah.

tizian.s 19-Jan-21 03:30 PM

Doesn't that also mean that you guys should be able to learn how to create instant dungeon and all that, because nearly everyone there knows how to at least create basic ones, right

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:31 PM

other people can enter instant dungeons

thats a gimel-exclusive thing we'd be doing at best

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:31 PM

I mean. Austin has 'mana' but he can't direct it himself.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:31 PM

Maybe not instant dungeons, but regular illusion barriers, yeah.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:31 PM

If he could control his psi there might be a chance of making a barrier by just focusing his power and concentrating, but psi doesn't work like that.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:31 PM

Though the ones with monsters in them are for training only. Only Jihan's presence makes them drop items.

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 03:32 PM

I think Psi mana is different from other mana.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 03:32 PM

...you can make an illusion barrier on ur own

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 03:32 PM

Same word, different energy source.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 03:32 PM

Naw, even psychics in the gamer can make IBs

tizian.s 19-Jan-21 03:33 PM

What i meant, i think you guys need to make it a habit to meditate and stuff, i don't know how else you could try to access the stuff.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:33 PM

minecraft psychic power might be different to gamer psychic power

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 03:33 PM

Malaki 19-Jan-21 03:33 PM

Meditation is a good thing to practice

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:33 PM

meditation would kind of cut into us trying to access the already readily available powers we got, id like to point out

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:34 PM

Gamer illusion barriers are really created by Gaia, not the person. It's kind of implied that you need some amount of focus/supernatural energy to make them though.

There are many different types of magic classified as 'Mana'. Psi's mana is different from The Gamer's mana.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 03:36 PM

Yeah the IBs are facilitated by Gaia

gamer physics do not equal minecraft physics, and illusion barriers are kind of useless for us

Okay, that's fair.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:37 PM

if it takes active effort to make em each time, to the point it takes over 20 minutes, its a waste of time

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:37 PM

Also things like moving around in them, then exiting so that you can sneak into secured places.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:37 PM

I think the instructions from the webtoon were to push mana into your hand. Our problem is that we don't know how to manipulate our mana.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:38 PM

no instinctive rulebook for this stuff

tizian.s 19-Jan-21 03:38 PM

Also we would basically create a new Dimension, does that mean that lucky bocks and stuff spawn inside newly created ones ?

Malaki 19-Jan-21 03:38 PM

Well, you have a staff to help feel out the mana to push it out naturally without it

tizian.s Also we would basically create a new Dimension, does that mean that lucky bocks and stuff spawn inside newly created ones ?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:38 PM

we'd spawn neutral lucky blocks, which are a bad thing

Forge BOT 19-Jan-21 03:38 PM

Not unless the illusion barrier wasn't based on the real world.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:39 PM

remember, this whole mess with armsmaster is because of one neutral lucky block

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:39 PM

maybe

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 19-Jan-21 03:39 PM

i can try?

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:39 PM

I'm going to go find the instructions in the comic to try figuring out if it's an imagination thing or if you actually need mana

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:40 PM

that could work, thanks captain

Malaki 19-Jan-21 03:40 PM

Do it child, nothing could possibly go wrong

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:40 PM

wait

no

actually you need to focus to exit too

and cant do that if there's monsters

He could vanish and not figure out how to get out

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 19-Jan-21 03:40 PM

i have school too, but im not going into the palace, so i have time.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:40 PM

Monsters only come naturally if ur Gamer

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:40 PM

Getting out is very similar to going in. Same concept, only you think about escaping.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:40 PM

Otherwise you have to add them on purpose and it's implied to be a lot of work.

Yes.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 03:41 PM

IBs are usually empty. Jihan's are an exception.

thats my take on it

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 03:42 PM

Yeah, that makes sense.

tizian.s 19-Jan-21 03:42 PM

I mean, should not be to much work to meditate a hour or something before going to sleep, because even if it does not help you access your gamer Mana it should at least help you guys center yourself or something, and if it doesn't even do that it should at least help sleeping

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 19-Jan-21 03:42 PM

ill still try! just in case. ill meditate and see if i can find any mana.

Nora IBs are usually empty. Jihan's are an exception.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 03:42 PM

Naw, the necromancer guy could and did make IBs with respawning zombies in the early chapters

He made them like that on purpose to take their souls, iirc.

They come empty by default, and anything extra you need to add on purpose.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:43 PM

The ones you make yourself are going to be empty unless you know how to make monster barriers and do that.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 03:43 PM

High tier people in the gamer could populate IBs with watever, to the point that various afterlives are actually IBs

Malaki 19-Jan-21 03:44 PM

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:44 PM

In any case. The instructions specifically mention releasing energy, which we might not have.

tizian.s 19-Jan-21 03:44 PM

I think it is at least worth a try, because even without the gamer stuff, there are a lot strong people there.

Malaki 19-Jan-21 03:46 PM

Plus with totemic stuff if we find out how to apply totemic magic to the entirity of the IB they can make training dimensions

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:46 PM

It's unfortunate that psi is so programmatic. Otherwise it might have potential for making IBs. Also yeah. Don't do it where Gamer might notice them.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:47 PM

I mean, Gimel is fine? Unless we suspect that Gamer somehow has access to Gimel, it's as good as any other earth.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:47 PM

i'm saying gamer could potentially use the IB to access gimel

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:47 PM

Most likely we're going to fail anyway.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 03:47 PM

this is a precaution that hurts nobody and keeps our assets safe in a worst case scenario

gamer could enter hell, he can probably access gimel's IB's

Malaki 19-Jan-21 03:48 PM

You cant access other IBs unless the IB ur in intersects or is already inside one

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 03:48 PM

People in the comic could never use IBs to access alternate Earths. They're more like a thin skin that you lay on top of an area. They don't exist on every earth simultaneously.

I give it like 40% odds of working in any case. It needs Gamer type energy. Psi type energy exists in everyone thanks to the altered physics. So maybe Gamer mana does too. Thing is, letting everyone make IBs at will is kind of world-altering, and it's so easy to do that a layperson could do it by accident if they had gamer mana.

Diffrence is if the principle had a palace

honestly him running it is somewhat close to reality - like a restaurant manager's being the restaurant

he runs the local protectorate, that grants him some authority

he talks, people listen

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 04:36 PM

I guess.

physically impossible due to him being a mental construct, not having enough power [that's Holy Grail tier, which required ALL OF HUMANTY working on it]

Oh yeah, in P5 we kick the shit out of the shadow, then steal their treasure.

Armsmaster? BOT 19-Jan-21 05:34 PM

So something is messed up with his mind, ie Defiant, and we came to see if we could use the palace to help.

when theyre beat you can chat with them to convince them to not act like shitheads and instead as personas - you can kinda do the same thing to Big Boss Shadows

I'll look for another glitch, then.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 06:59 PM

Unfortunately this memory is basically the most important defining one for Defiant. So you'll have to do it at some point.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 06:59 PM

Well shit.

Defiant BOT 19-Jan-21 07:00 PM

Feeling's gone again.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 07:01 PM

defiant, we're starting to get a more concrete plan while doing this, but it may involve reliving some unpleasant past memories in order to strengthen the connections they have

you ok with that?

Defiant BOT 19-Jan-21 07:01 PM

It's fine. They're just memories.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 07:01 PM

just wanted to clear it with you

alrighty, so - seems like these memories set up whoever goes in as the antagonist

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 07:02 PM

Okay, I found another glitch. This one is in a window that points along the coast.

“I failed,” Defiant said.

“You hurt her. If anyone failed, it was me,” Dragon replied. “I couldn’t break away from the fight.”

Mist emanated from her robotic body, dissolving the strings of slime that had congealed around him. Her hand settled on the side of his face.

“Did we gain anything?”

“I’ll show you in a minute. Are you okay?”

“Need more tech. Nanomolecular thorns for my arms. It would have made the difference.”

“Four,” he said. “We should mobilize now. There’s a limit to how fast and how far they can move, especially with the wounded. Bonesaw went into the subway system, and it will take time for her to get free, but if she gets in contact with their new teleporter-“ “We’ll mobilize as soon as I’ve freed you, Colin. If I don’t use this body, you’ll be left behind, and neither of us want that.” “Better that you give chase.” “We’re doing okay. We’re closing the gap. They showed up on camera, and we were ready to move on them within minutes. We’ll do it again.” Colin nodded, but he didn’t respond. She settled her arms around his shoulders, letting the spray do its work. The metal of her forehead touched his mask. “Take it for what it is. A little lost, a lot gained.” It took thirty more seconds for the foam to dissolve. She broke the hug and he tore himself free of the scraps. They were out of the basement and walking through the ruined interior of Accord’s household in moments.

Never mention the bath water again

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 07:49 PM

I guess I'll just follow the script, then.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 07:50 PM

They stepped outside into the evening air. Colin let the vents in his costume open so the cool air could flow through. Dragon luxuriated in the feel of the air against her exterior body.

Her hand caught his as they walked to where the Uther and her own suit were waiting.

>

Colin stopped in his tracks. Dragon’s suit was posed with its head pointing toward the sky. The suit’s metal jaws were clamped around a body.

>

Manton.

>

“The Siberian is dead?”

>

“Gone would be a more appropriate word,” she said. “Manton is dead.”

>

Colin nodded and exhaled slowly. “Good work.”

>

“The job’s not over yet.”

>

The Uther’s cabin doors opened to invite him in.

Yeah. It seems this memory thing has a pretty high tolerance for going off script, but if you actually have the script, why not use it?

he might be able to describe it in greater detail once the other pieces of the puzzle are there

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 08:01 PM

There's some memories we aren't going to be able to do soon though, Defiant. We play Leviathan in that fight, and none of our people can withstand nanothorns, so we'll have to leave that for now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:03 PM

id imagine that might've done some infrastructure damage

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 08:03 PM

Yeah, it did.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:04 PM

either that or effectively made a saferoom by lowering distortion

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 08:04 PM

Glitches are in broken parts of the palace, and completing this one made it crack a bit more.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:04 PM

oh damn, nice

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 08:04 PM

ArmsShadow can't call shadows from the palace if there is no palace

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:04 PM

this is the weirdest palace ever

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 08:05 PM

I mean, it's a weird situation, to be fair.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:05 PM

how long did that take, btw?

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 08:05 PM

Maybe 20 minutes to complete the glitch?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:05 PM

oh damn

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 08:06 PM

Oh. I see where the glitch was going.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:06 PM

where?

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 08:06 PM

It made a few steps on a staircase up to the Dragon-suit.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 08:06 PM

ohkay. So we can actually get up eventually.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:07 PM

the dragon suit is gonna be how we have defiant come back. maybe by getting armsshadow in it?

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 08:07 PM

Yeah, could be.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 08:08 PM

Makes me wonder what's in there though, I'm pretty sure the most important memory is Leviathan fight. Unless the suit just has all his general feelings for Dragon.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:08 PM

oh probably

light of his life and all

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 08:08 PM

It's a pretty big ship, I'll probably need to explore it beforehand.

Aww, cute.

Kinda weird that I had to play her, but cute.

By the way, the glitch filled out a sixth or so of the way up to Dragon.

Maybe the fourth of six?

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 08:10 PM

Reading that interlude again though. I forgot how weird Bonesaw was. Defiant cut her in half except for her spine. And she had a prehensile spine. Who plans to get cut in half to make a prehensile spine useful!?

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 08:10 PM

Bonesaw, I guess?

Well, it did end up happening, so it was a good call on her part.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:11 PM

heres hoping bonesaw doesnt have my thinker power

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 08:12 PM

Probably can't assume she's dead unless you've locked her in a cremator or something.

And seen the ashes come out.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:12 PM

i wouldnt assume she's dead until i launched her into the sun

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 08:12 PM

Yeah, I think Bonesaw is one of the ones we'll go to her palace for.

Get Riley back early.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:13 PM

bonesaw, mannequin, maybe manton if hes redeemable in any way

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 08:13 PM

yeah, probably one of the few people it's less work to do palace than it is to kill her

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 08:14 PM

Ideally, we'll be able to do all of their palaces.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 08:14 PM

Yeah, true.

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 08:14 PM

We won't necessarily have time to do all of them, but we could do some, at least.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:14 PM

i just had an idea

syncing up their palaces so we hit the whole fucking s9 at the same time

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 08:15 PM

That sounds incredibly risky and I'd have no idea how to do it.

When do we start?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:15 PM

point

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 08:15 PM

Sigh.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 08:15 PM

Random idea. We know the names and motivations of most of the Cauldron members. Think it's enough to get palaces on them if they have them?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:15 PM

we know the first names and motivations of the cauldron members

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 08:16 PM

Huh. And we have access to Cauldron's Earth too, so we can get to the necessary locations too, hopefully.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:16 PM

true

with our luck though

its probably like 'earth bet' at biggest or something

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 08:16 PM

Good point.

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 08:17 PM

There's another glitch looking out over the bay. It's higher up, so I can't see the water as well as I could at the other one.

Wonder what this one is?

Actually, it looks like it's pretty close to the Leviathan one.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 08:19 PM

I'm honestly not the best at remembering costumes When I read I don't really visualize scenes or characters or details except when they're directly mentioned

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 08:26 PM

ah, skitter, aka taylor

Heh, I like her hair. Very cool.

What a great sense of style.

Nora Honestly, I usually just visualize characters as whatever fanart I've seen of them.

randomperson44 19-Jan-21 08:29 PM

I mean, I do that too, when I'm actually visualizing them. But like. In a fight scene, I don't visualize armsmaster, there's just kind of an indeterminate location-blob mentally labeled 'armsmaster'. It has arms when there's mention of him taking a swing at people. It has a spear when he' swinging that at people. After that's done the arms and spear vanish at some point

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 08:29 PM

this meeting they talked about... something - is tattletale - blonde with green eyes in purple and black bodysuit w/ domino mask - with skitter?

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 08:30 PM

Yeah, same. If someone asks me to imagine what a character looks like, I'll think of fanart, but when I'm reading, they're just blobs that do things.

yeah, thats fair

hes very work-oriented, being away from the job for a prolonged period probably isnt doing him any favors mentally either

ok so, hospital, accusations - villains were probably there, as were heroes, hes a capable enough hero itd take something seriously lethal to disarm him - probably enough to invoke truce - probably an endbringer or something - yep leviathan again - getting heated at someone, likely target is skitter of undersiders due to prior statements and going back on them (edited)

theres the train of logic

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 09:27 PM

"Hmm... Like, the fallout of an Endbringer attack?"

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 09:27 PM

"Yes, that fits. ...Leviathan, it felt like. I could smell seawater in the air."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 09:29 PM

could comment that it seems like armsmaster's getting a form of precog - did we ever say anything about leviathan targeting the bay? cause thatd be how we could credibly say it

like, is the info out there

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 09:30 PM

"Maybe it was a precognitive dream? That's the vibe my power is getting."

"Hmm, was Skitter there, actually?"

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 09:31 PM

"..." "I think she was. I caught her doing something, and brought her to Miss Militia and Legend."

"But, a precognitive dream?"

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 09:32 PM

"It's what my power thinks."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 09:32 PM

limited, like a hypothetical 'what if' scenario, since things are now kind of off the rails

lotta things building off 'this happens, therefore this happens, therefore-'

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 09:33 PM

"Or maybe it's some sort of what-if scenario. We're planning to get Skitter back on the straight and narrow, and this kinda clashes with that."

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 09:34 PM

"Well, I do doubt it's just a dream. It did almost feel like a vision, rather than a plain dream."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 09:35 PM

itd fit as a sort of social thinker power, now that i think about it actually - precogging events that cannot happen as a way of seeing how people would react in hypothetical scenarios to better judge their personality. man i wanna write about that now

he is def on the money with vision thing

Nora BOT 19-Jan-21 09:35 PM

I'd read that.

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 09:37 PM

"The one before that, I was in a fight with a villain. They were some sort of brute, and possibly a tinker too. There was another villain in the room, and the brute used them to escape, somehow."

brute as in 'insanely durable' or

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 09:55 PM

its not even that far-fetched a guess for us with the '9 attacks the bay' thing, mannequin targeting him - assuming leviathan first of course, he'd be a sitting duck

given the arm loss thing and all

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 09:56 PM

"Mannequin. Sneaking into the Rig, and attacking you. Also, Leviathan's actual attack, as opposed to just the aftermath."

"Then two other things, I think. Don't know what."

"Right. I'll look out for those, then. When do you think they'll come?"

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 09:58 PM

"I see. What about whatever tried to control me?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 09:59 PM

adverse reaction, given the whole 'arm loss' thing in one of the visions

its definitely plausible

certainly moreso than a body master specifically making him make a cybernetic arm to replace his own

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 10:00 PM

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 10:00 PM

which just so happens to match the arm he loses

i spent like 5 minutes trying to type that right lol

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 10:08 PM

hm

mightve been tyrina provide the warnings defiant had however possible

leviathan and the s9 are big ass problems, and if you were stuck in someone's head knowing those issues were coming you'd wanna figure out a way to get to action so steps are taken (edited)

defiant was able to speak now so visions are probably enabling a much clearer connection, leaving takeovers less necessary

if the visions are from the point of view of armsmaster, no cognitive dissonance between thoughts in these precog visions, it can be assumed its an esoteric effect copy-pasting armsmaster's mind from the future back to now

a bit of determinator-ism is kind of a requirement if youre gonna try to solo endbringers and the s9

all things that could be said in response to that

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 10:14 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 10:19 PM

some powers cause mental effects, like getting lost in visions of worlds afar, emotional numbing at seeing fire... could be fragments of future visions giving rise to his own mental engrams from that period of time, and them trying to get enough power to say something about what's gonna happen, or try to do something about it (edited)

i doubt he'd be the first person to fight his own powers

tizian.s 19-Jan-21 10:21 PM

if his final form was loaded with a ton of cybernetics, as spurred on by losing bits and pieces in various s9 and endbringer attacks, and defiant is him from the future, itd make sense

plus, if the arm had any design principles he recognized from dragon, thats another point in favor of that

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 11:03 PM

"Actually, when they were building the arm, did you recognise any design principles in it? Dragon's, maybe?"

Armsmaster BOT 19-Jan-21 11:04 PM

...Oh my god, you were right.

I thought you were just being paranoid, but the limping guy really was Lee.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 11:50 PM

yknow what thats fair

Legend BOT 19-Jan-21 11:51 PM

(what an honor)

Rei BOT 19-Jan-21 11:52 PM

(Time for two new dads, fuck yeah. I should start a collection.)

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 11:53 PM

"Yeah. You're the guy I healed earlier. Your power messes with your head, right? Was I able to heal that?"

Oni Lee BOT 19-Jan-21 11:53 PM

"You're remarkably well-informed, yes."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 11:54 PM

lucky informed guess - difference between past and present speech patterns

might wanna ask what he plans on doing with his new lease on life

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 11:54 PM

"So, let's cut to the chase, then. What are you planning to do?"

Oni Lee BOT 19-Jan-21 11:57 PM

"My power left me with very little by way of my own volition. I only had base emotions remaining, and I couldn't do much without being told to do it. My power pulled me into a downwards spiral, where my decreasing mental faculties caused me to need to use my power more often to compensate, which got me involved in gang activities."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 19-Jan-21 11:58 PM

he wants a way out - a new lease on life, then?

honestly, can't fault him for that

Austin BOT 19-Jan-21 11:58 PM

"But the cycle is broken, now."

Oni Lee BOT 20-Jan-21 12:00 AM

"Yes. My only problem is that now, I have nothing to go back to. My civilian identity, Li Hirano, likely does not even exist anymore, and my family are all dead or too estranged to care."

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 12:00 AM

Li Hirano. No palace. A place in the Metaverse, but most people have one of those.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:01 AM

probably because of his powers - a subtle nudge towards conflict and all

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:01 AM

"You're asking for help?"

Li BOT 20-Jan-21 12:03 AM

"No. I don't expect any, I've done too much bad in the past to have any future but the Birdcage. This is my official surrender to the Protectorate."

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:03 AM

...

He seems so resigned.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:04 AM

that's... depressing

maybe inform MM about this, and his power's side effects?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:05 AM

Yeah, I plan to.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:05 AM

or...

hm.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:05 AM

Or?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:05 AM

id say, gimel is an option, but that's a risky and stupid option unless you wanna build him a home and a farm in canada or something

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:06 AM

Well, he seems to be genuine, here. Maybe I could try and bring him fully on-board?

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 12:06 AM

Huh, we need a team name, don't we?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:06 AM

maybe? i dont know

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 12:06 AM

Any team name suggestions?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:06 AM

...we DO have earth dalet that we could hide him on

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:07 AM

True, but just cutting him off from all human contact feels pretty shitty.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:07 AM

true

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:07 AM

At least he'd have people to talk to in the Birdcage.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:07 AM

i honestly feel like this is a master scenario a la teacher

except he sabotaged himself towards everyone

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:08 AM

Yeah. This is the kind of thing I feel like I should argue.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:08 AM

prt might try to bring him onboard if they can use the right trump on him to make his power Not Kill Him

maybe move him out of city and rebrand

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 12:08 AM

I mean, don't we have the right trump right here?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:09 AM

...are you implying you can alter powers

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 12:09 AM

If Austin heals him often enough, it'll have the same effect, right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:09 AM

...point

honestly giving him a cad and sending him on his way might be an option for the prt

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:09 AM

I could even just give him a CAD with a self-healing spell, yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:10 AM

...that he might not be able to bring with him on teleports, because shards dont understand magic

he'd need to cooperate with a teammate for that

still, teammate with cad

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:12 AM

"Give me a moment."

I'm making a self-healing spell bullet. It's a long time coming, honestly.

And I still have my old CAD on me, so...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:14 AM

might wanna pitch the idea to him

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:16 AM

"Here. The healing won't work on anyone but you, but it should keep your power from messing with your head too much. It reacts strangely with powers, so I don't know if you'll be able to bring it with you when you teleport, but it'll be helpful nonetheless."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:17 AM

he doesnt have any idea what's going on now

Li BOT 20-Jan-21 12:17 AM

"You're just giving this to me? Well, I suppose you'll get it back eventually."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:17 AM

we havent explained the heroism angle at all

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:18 AM

"I don't know how the PRT will react to your story, but it seems like you'd have a pretty clear case as a probationary hero, if you wanted. Exacerbating circumstances and that."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:18 AM

theyd have to bring in 'oni lee' obvs, retire the identity

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:19 AM

"Or, if you preferred, you could retire from cape work altogether and live under PRT watch."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:20 AM

prt is pretty good at helping people get new lives, id say

you're living proof

Li BOT 20-Jan-21 12:20 AM

"If they'd be happy to have me, I'd be happy to join them."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:21 AM

how's triumph taking all this?

and mm for that matter?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:21 AM

Pretty well, all things considered.

They don't necessarily trust Lee, but if he's genuine, this will be a win for the Protectorate.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:22 AM

fair enough

they might call in some other thinkers to vet how genuine it is, but im gonna hope things go well

assuming all goes well, this might even result in an achievement for your first successful recruitment to the prt/protectorate (edited)

considering the complexity of how that worked out, i wouldnt be surprised

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:26 AM

I wouldn't mind another achievement.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:27 AM

still, you might get attacked while getting lee to the prt

stay on guard

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:27 AM

Right. Got it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:27 AM

4 mightve just been 'parahuman encounter - abb' but i have trust issues with numbers

for reasons that will hopefully not become apparent

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:28 AM

Or even 'Encounter Oni Lee', and he just happened to be nice this time.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:28 AM

thatd be a fucking thing

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:29 AM

I have a waypoint close to the PRT building, so I might just take him there directly.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:29 AM

that'd be a good idea, i think - but question, does it look like hes got anything of bakuda's arsenal left on him?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:30 AM

If he's not wearing his costume when we arrive, he can pretend to be a normal person too. No, he's unarmed, as far as I can tell.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:30 AM

oh good point

maybe set a temp waypoint down here so you can come back once li's at the prt (edited)

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:30 AM

Yeah, good idea.

I just noticed, there's a sleeping mat. It's pretty sparse, but I think he might actually live here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:32 AM

oof

itd make as much sense as anywhere, i suppose

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:33 AM

Yeah.

Well, Li is safely in with the PRT.

I guess I'll continue my patrol, then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:33 AM

got your cad back from triumph?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:34 AM

That's the plan.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:34 AM

well, guess youre good to head on back and delete that waypoint, replace it with a non-tp one

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:34 AM

Well, we're getting to the end of the patrol, and there haven't been any other upsets.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:34 AM

thank god

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:35 AM

I have some going spare, so if I ever need to free up space, that one can be the first to go.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:35 AM

fair

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:35 AM

Li might want someone to grab his stuff.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:35 AM

oh yeah thats true

well, that was reassuring - good stuff can happen sometimes

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:36 AM

Yeah, it looks like it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:36 AM

id call this a triumph, wouldn't you? lol

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:36 AM

Heh.

Actually, Forge, will you be able to disclose the encounter list at some point? I know that 10 and 4 are both stricken off the list by now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:37 AM

ha. 10-4

Forge BOT 20-Jan-21 12:37 AM

Sure, when Lung ceases to be a problem.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:38 AM

Heh. Neat. Maybe we can get an idea of other encounter lists from that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:38 AM

who knows man

e88 has like 20 capes

merchants might be more predictable, as could undersiders ig

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:39 AM

I mean, a 3-cape organisation's territory had a d10 roll, so there'd be some other stuff on there too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:39 AM

yea, prolly

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 12:40 AM

Good job on taking out 2/3 of a gang's parahuman members, by the way.

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 12:40 AM

Go throw hands with Lung and make it three for three!

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:40 AM

Maybe not.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:41 AM

heres hoping not

that could cause Several Issues

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:44 AM

I really don't have the firepower to take on Lung.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:45 AM

yet

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:45 AM

I'm more of a swiss army knife than the broadsword needed to deal with that.

Yeah, yet.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:46 AM

eventually, your swiss army knife will be more like a brick you can beat people over the head with that happens to have a corkscrew and a hundred other tools in it

Forge BOT 20-Jan-21 12:46 AM

Milestone achieved!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:46 AM

ayyyy

man that is a re-li-ef

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:48 AM

I'm glad things worked out for him there.

...Guess what power I got.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:48 AM

...is it clones

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:48 AM

Nope.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:48 AM

i swear to god it feels like there's a theme when its not multiple

is it the endslayer gear

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:49 AM

Not yet, I wouldn't be this excited if it was since I wouldn't be able to make it yet.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:49 AM

uhhhh

final guess nether or end

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:49 AM

Yep, Minecraft: Nether.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:49 AM

ohhhh sick

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 12:50 AM

You can tell people to go to hell, and then make it come true.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:50 AM

man good luck if the pr guys ever decide to spin 'creates portals to actual hell' in a positive light

even if its knockoff minecraft hell

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:50 AM

I think this is one that I might keep under wraps.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:50 AM

yeah probably

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:51 AM

Well, I can mention potions, but maybe not the other stuff.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:51 AM

hm. could have earth dalet be your nether base (edited)

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:51 AM

Yeah, that works.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:51 AM

i should boot up my own copy of minecraft, have a look what stuff the nether has

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:52 AM

Sure, or head to the wiki.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:52 AM

yeah, true

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 12:52 AM

If it's up to date, you could find endermen in the Nether, get ender pearls that way.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:53 AM

if your eden power autocorrects and gives you like 3 feet of height

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:53 AM

God, could you imagine? I'm already tall enough as it is.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:53 AM

piglins dont attack you if you wear gold, so maybe like grab a bracelet or three

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 12:54 AM

You and Manpower could start a club.

The Nether

The Nether is a dangerous hell-like dimension filled with fire, lava, fungus-based vegetation, and many hostile mobs.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:56 AM

Cheers!

I'd start setting up the Nether base now, but I said I'd talk to Armsmaster again after my patrol.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:57 AM

fair enough

id ask if anyone else is free enough for that

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 12:58 AM

Oh yeah, good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:58 AM

school tho

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 12:58 AM

ah, nice

how do you feel about stacking up sharp rocks and setting them on fire

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 12:59 AM

Huh?

Oh, FUCK yeah!

Time to go straight to hell!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 12:59 AM

do not pass go, do not collect $200

...do you think soulsand contains actual souls

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:00 AM

I'll have to help make the portal parts myself, but if you could set up a base over there, that would be great.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:00 AM

be careful going through, lava could be on the direct other side of the portal yall

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:00 AM

It doesn't contain souls, per se?

More like unshapen spirit goo.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:01 AM

oh so its soaked with ectoplasm

well, thats a lot more reassuring

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:01 AM

It has proto-soul goo metaphysically bound to it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:02 AM

and i assume that stuff burns blue

...hey, the nether has lucky blocks all over it

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:02 AM

So yeah, no trapped souls of the dammed. Yeah, it does.

It does.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:02 AM

can you pick those up without setting em off

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:02 AM

No, not really.

They'd all be set and primed. Can't pick them up, can't upgrade them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:03 AM

damn

you need a bow to set those off

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:03 AM

Honestly? That's a great idea.

Hell, I could just make a 'break block' spell for my CAD.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:04 AM

that thing has ridiculous range, yeah?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:04 AM

Yeah, it does.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:04 AM

...oh my god

i just had a thought

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:05 AM

Oh?

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 01:05 AM

Do tell.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:05 AM

anti-leviathan maneuver: SPONGE

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 01:05 AM

YES

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:06 AM

if you ever get tech to send stuff to the nether and back, and place/break stuff, you could effectively auto-fire sponge at leviathan to limit its water ad infinitum as long as you pick em up again

item magnet would help with that

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:07 AM

I'd need a whole lot of sponge to treat into Minecraft sponge, but that could work, yeah.

Between that and the mobgriefing prevention, Leviathan's going to have a hell of a time here.

"Oh hey, Miss Militia, I didn't realise you were here."

So yeah. Where do I start?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:20 AM

could start with your actual powers

its gonna sound ridiculous so you can warn him first

and the real meaning behind your name

minor stuff to ease him into it, no grand apocalyptic stuff

we can get to that later, unless he wants to skip to it

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:21 AM

Yeah. I'll keep the Scion thing a secret for now.

I think that would be a bit too much.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:21 AM

yeah, true

could just invite him to ask you anything, and once he runs out of questions you can think of more stuff to reveal

hes probably got a lot of questions he'd like answered

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:22 AM

"I'll give you a warning, some of this stuff is going to be pretty hard to believe."

I might wait on inviting him until we know what to do with his palace.

basic stuff you can point to as supporting evidence: inventory, mental text chat, 'forum' style thinker power giving deets

alongside how arbitrary your power's growth seems - open world sandbox building game

with some combat elements as mods

you may be able to get a picture of you and an actual enderman later

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:29 AM

"It's called Minecraft. It's essentially lego but it's a video game. The big draw is that you can build anything you want. There's a community of people who program mods for the game as well."

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 01:35 AM

Okay, I got it onto my Protectorate laptop. It's lunch break, so I can pop over.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:36 AM

nice

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:36 AM

I'll set a waypoint.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 01:37 AM

"Here's a laptop with Minecraft on it. I also have some modpacks downloaded, if you want to show off some mods."

"It'll take time to load, and it might be a bit laggy, but otherwise, go for it."

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:38 AM

"Thanks, Nora."

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 01:38 AM

"No prob!"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:38 AM

armsmaster knows yall can waypoint?

or. did you do it outside his cell or smth

or am i misreading and you just went to pick the laptop up

Armsmaster BOT 20-Jan-21 01:39 AM

"I wasn't aware Diamond could teleport."

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 01:39 AM

I came over to give Austin the laptop.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:39 AM

ah

yeah, might wanna explain how some aspects of your power can be shared under specific circumstances

once the defiant situation has been ironed out youd be happy to invite him in, yea?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:40 AM

"That's the other power I kept secret. Only some of my powers can be taught, but those that can't, I can share by letting other people into my 'thinker power'."

"I just set a waypoint for her to teleport to."

Armsmaster BOT 20-Jan-21 01:41 AM

"I see."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:41 AM

now, the reason why

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:41 AM

"I can probably let you in once you're out of M/S quarantine."

Armsmaster BOT 20-Jan-21 01:42 AM

"I'm surprised you'd just share your powers like that."

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:42 AM

"Well, you'd probably be able to do more with them than I could, to be fair."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:43 AM

to be fair, some caution is being exercised as well - thinker power has been leaking dangerous-to-share info like a sieve lately

the whole leviathan thing? might be thrown off if that info gets out, cause ziz being ziz would manipulate things

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:44 AM

Yeah, good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:44 AM

better some people know than nobody (edited)

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:44 AM

Yeah.

"Anyway, Nora brought over a copy of Minecraft, if you want to see. She said there's some mods on there too, but I don't know which ones."

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:47 AM

"The laptop doesn't have anything on it that would make it against the rules to lend you, and I don't think you're about to use it to break out or anything."

Armsmaster BOT 20-Jan-21 01:47 AM

"I see."

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:48 AM

"Anyway, while that loads, I'll move onto something else."

What to talk about?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:48 AM

the others with powersets like yours?

the fact you let legend know whats up?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:48 AM

Good ideas.

"I guess the other people with powers like mine."

Armsmaster BOT 20-Jan-21 01:49 AM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:51 AM

Turns out, the game was rigged from the start.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:52 AM

"A bit broader than that. More people with powers based on fiction."

"There's five people confirmed so far, though a sixth may be coming in a couple of days."

Armsmaster BOT 20-Jan-21 01:53 AM

"Would I recognize any of the fiction they're based on?"

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:54 AM

"I don't think so, unless the Persona series is around."

Is it?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:54 AM

September 20, 1996 - persona 1 release date

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 01:54 AM

I googled it when I first got here. Answer is no.

SMT does, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:55 AM

presumably theyre being selected for fiction we know but earth bet can't find

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 01:55 AM

Yeah, it seems like it. They've all been relatively recent, too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:56 AM

reckoners is recent?

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 01:56 AM

Ish. I think the first book was from the early 2010s.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 01:56 AM

2013, yeah

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 01:58 AM

"I'm Minecraft, Diamond is a cartoon called Steven Universe, there's a vigilante called Joker who has the game Persona 5, the traveling villain Gamer has the webcomic The Gamer, and Steelheart has the book trilogy The Reckoners."

Armsmaster BOT 20-Jan-21 01:58 AM

"That is... a bold claim to make."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:00 AM

dimensional travel has worlds labelled - gamer has instant barriers, which are labeled, joker has mementos, another dimension as far as persona 5 is concerned, legend got shunted off to Earth Reckoners

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 02:00 AM

"Yeah, I know. I don't expect you to believe me right away or anything. I'm just telling the truth, take it how you will."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:00 AM

diamond just straight up told us

...actually you could just straight up tell him too, if lunch break aint over

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 02:00 AM

"If you want, I can ask Diamond to come back, she'll back me up on this."

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:01 AM

Sure, I can come over.

Actually, I might as well just be there for the whole conversation.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:01 AM

yea that works

less back and forth

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:02 AM

"It's fine, there's still half an hour of lunch break left."

"But yeah, my powers seem to be based on the kids' cartoon Steven Universe."

"I have all the same powers as the main character, and I can make all the technology the aliens in the show can."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:05 AM

i can only imagine the look on his face

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 02:05 AM

Pinched.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:05 AM

Very confused.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:06 AM

poor guy lol

it may not be a joke, but it is funny

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 02:06 AM

I mean, how much stuff has been dropped on him today?

He probably has whiplash.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:06 AM

ok, fair point

i wonder if he'll end up just transitioning right back to 'okay this is normal now'

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 02:07 AM

I think that's the goal.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:07 AM

lol

and given prior implications...

he may be imagining he could end up with a powerset like that

honestly, he could - he seems like main party material

Armsmaster BOT 20-Jan-21 02:08 AM

"This is all very hard to believe."

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 02:09 AM

"Well, like you said, either believe it or don't."

Armsmaster BOT 20-Jan-21 02:09 AM

"You have information on Steelheart's powers, then?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:09 AM

already told legend

hm. https://the-reckoners.fandom.com/wiki/Steelheart_(character)

Steelheart (character)

Steelheart (character) | The Reckoners Wiki | Fandom

lets see if that works

...wait you have all that wrote down basically dont you-

heck

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 02:11 AM

"We don't know everything, but we have some educated guesses. We've already passed the info up the chain. I had to let Legend into my 'thinker power' to be able to communicate with him at all, so he's read into all of it."

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:12 AM

"The first Reckoners book is called Steelheart, which is also the name of the main villain from it."

"The protagonist ends up getting an identical powerset to Steelheart's at the end of the third book, so I think we're all getting specifically protagonist powers."

"The real Steelheart has all the powers of the fictional one, plus some ability that lets him give other powers from the series to other people."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:14 AM

gamer likely has party invites, you have gems that can bind to people, the whole persona 5 confidant system...

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:15 AM

"All of our powers seem to be shareable, in some way."

"I can create sapient beings out of different minerals, and I can embed them in people to give them new powers too."

"Gamer is very similar to Austin, in that he can create a small group of people he shares powers with."

"Joker can travel to another dimension, and any real people who enter there with a phone can go back and forth as they please, and they're able to gain powers there too."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:23 AM

gamer, you, joker, and austin grow, though steelheart could potentially be an odd one out

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 02:24 AM

"All of us aside from Steelheart are able to grow over time in some way, though that could just be a coincidence."

Wait.

I just remembered something, give me a mo.

heres hoping 'new gaea on the block' doesnt mean anything too bad

'heir of evolution' is concerning but fits scion ig

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:29 AM

I have no idea how much of a plan I'd have for the entities.

It could be nothing, it could be offscreen death, it could be something huge.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:29 AM

given the street level nature of things, probably none, but if rapid growth starts happening we're fucked

scion's likely the only one with the plan, maybe eden

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:30 AM

I think Scion was going to die pretty early on in the first draft of Stoneblock, but that hasn't happened yet, so I don't think it will.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:31 AM

scion was the first encounter, now

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:31 AM

It was going to be a kind of meta-joke where everyone in-universe is sad and scared that the greatest hero is gone, but the readers know the opposite.

Yeah, he was.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:32 AM

given scion causes All Sorts Of Shit to start failing, he probably has something big involving him

like the apocalypse

or erasing chicago later

im not good at guessing this stuff

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:33 AM

Yeah, maybe. I mean, Mary's plan was there for quite a while. On the other hand, I make up 95% of everything as I go along, so maybe she doesn't have any plans at all.

there's the rub. these powers also seem to have administrators

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 02:36 AM

or different methodology and flourishes

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 02:52 AM

Austin It refers to another sponsorship's 'faction'.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:20 AM

I'm not confident in this, but I think you're just reading into it too much. Remember that every sponsored seems to have the ability to share powers somehow. This means that every sponsored can form their own faction, in that sense. Armsmaster's going to have some alarm bells when he connects nether portals to you carving obsidian. (edited)

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:52 PM

I might be able to make a giant green gem with a shotgun as a weapon? Since I'd be making gems by hand, I have more ability to customise them. I'm not really planning to make any gems at the moment - I'm not really ready for the responsibility of having created a living being.

Lucky_Plucky21 20-Jan-21 02:52 PM

Yay

An immortal slayer

Good job Nora

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:53 PM

If I do start making gems, feel free to give me ideas. I'm not going to be starting until I feel ready to, but I probably will at some point.

Lucky_Plucky21 20-Jan-21 02:54 PM

You need a reach mineral soil with different elements depending on the kind of gem you want

The Warrior gems tend to be amethyst, quartz and ruby

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:54 PM

I'd probably be making them in a lab environment, since I'm not mass producing them.

Lucky_Plucky21 20-Jan-21 02:54 PM

Still need the rich mineral soil for it

They are made from it and are born, not something you could really do in a lab

Unless you manage to better the process from the thousands of years it has been implemented

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:56 PM

I'd be emulating a similar environment to mineral-rich soil. It's just too costly to use on a large scale, but it works fine small-scale.

Lucky_Plucky21 20-Jan-21 02:56 PM

That works

What is the maximum optimal number for it?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 02:57 PM

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 02:57 PM

One at a time. It doesn't take nearly as long as the normal method, though.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 02:58 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:36 PM

rather than breaking that shit

mementos is pretty similar to the firmament after all

Lucky_Plucky21 20-Jan-21 03:36 PM

Or you could try to make a deal

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 03:36 PM

Are there pings of light coming from your body?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 03:37 PM

Oh, there are.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:37 PM

Austin is literally an Eden cape. He went in the Nether. Shards already have access to the nether.

Lucky_Plucky21 20-Jan-21 03:37 PM

We mean this place beings

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:37 PM

are yall able to travel to the firmament from mementos via the server list? cause if so austin can leave that way

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 03:37 PM

No, I can't travel in and out of dimensions with the server list.

Lucky_Plucky21 20-Jan-21 03:38 PM

Well shit

Make the portal

And when in the other side break it (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:38 PM

back in the cave

Lucky_Plucky21 20-Jan-21 03:38 PM

Ye

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:38 PM

make some explosives to break it from the other side

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:38 PM

Nether portals don't work like that though yeah you gotta explode the one in the firmament

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:38 PM

nether portals dont close on both sides because you broke one of them

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 03:39 PM

I can rig some explosives on the shardspace side, maybe/

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:39 PM

But why would Austin just be carrying explosives (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:39 PM

this is something theyre gonna have to come back to (edited)

jesus fuck

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 03:40 PM

I have Ex Nihilo, I can get resources from basically nothing.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:40 PM

o yeah

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 03:40 PM

You're going to break entropy while in shardspace?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:41 PM

maybe ex nihilo in hell, thats safer

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:41 PM

Meh. There's been sponsor doing weird shit fking everywhere

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:41 PM

theres a difference between standing on train tracks and running at a moving train (edited)

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:41 PM

If the shards haven't already noticed I'm not sure how much difference this will make

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:42 PM

this is more like jumping on the tracks while at the station and the trains are pulling in

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:43 PM

I guess. So the plan is to make a portal, Ex Nihilo some explosives, then go back through and leave the explosives, then blow them once Austin is back in Nether?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:43 PM

yea, p much

and pray they dont get extinguished

honestly we mightve just set off scion by doing this in general

we rolled a fucking 2 in luck, how is 'potentially set off scion' balanced (edited)

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 03:44 PM

Fuck.

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 03:45 PM

Man, things have not been going well recently, have they?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:45 PM

no kidding

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:45 PM

Wasn't Defiant like 70 something?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:45 PM

yeah, that's supposed to be good but we're still struggling to sort that situation out

@Forge are lucky blocks balanced towards the worst possible result

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:46 PM

Luck blocks here are just a lot more extreme than they are in game. No lame anvil traps for us.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 03:46 PM

I mean, 'getting knowledge from a future, more heroic version of yourself' is pretty good.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:46 PM

its caused spiritual damage he's still not recovered from

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:46 PM

We don't actually know whether that was our fault or not

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 03:47 PM

To be fair, part of that was our fault for telling him to get as strong as he could.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:47 PM

the arm hacking thing was, but everything else is just Like That

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 03:48 PM

I don't think anything strange happened until we told Defiant to get stronger.

It was only after that the dreams and arm hacking came, I think.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:48 PM

i dont think there's any supporting evidence for that but fair enough ig

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 03:48 PM

Yeah, good point.

It's just my conjecture.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:49 PM

youd think that if it was supposed to be good itd work a lot more seamlessly

this is one of the more antagonistic ways the defiant thing couldve gone down

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 03:50 PM

Yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:50 PM

and for all we know, the game was rigged from the start

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 03:50 PM

So, in sum, lucky blocks are fucked.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:51 PM

In any case, Defiant wasn't actually a very good roll. 70 is supposed to be mildly good. And it probably is. It's just, rather than being mildly good by being a small benefit, it's a massive benefit offset by coming in the form of time traveling psyche cancer.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:51 PM

fucky blocks

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 03:51 PM

Exactly.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:51 PM

point, random

ive been assuming, and had that assumption reinforced by the recent trip to shardspace, that totally neutral lucky blocks have the full range of options

therefore 70 would at least be moderate good rather than mild

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:52 PM

I don't know what an extreme 100 roll would be. Friendly Gaia Guardian or something like that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:52 PM

100 is scion has a heart attack probably

if this is anything to judge by

either that or friendly resurrected eden

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 03:53 PM

I guess 'rolls' aren't necessarily trustworthy. I recruited Lee on a 4/10, and gave my boss soul cancer on an 87/100.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:54 PM

No, so far lucky blocks only affect things nearby. Spawn an item, cause a rift to shardspace where the block is, give friendly mind cancer to the person who broke it.

Maybe if you got Scion to break a block and he rolled a 1

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 03:54 PM

I can decrease the luck on blocks too.

So it's not implausible.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:54 PM

honestly thus far it seems like even when its good its probably bad

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 03:55 PM

Maybe if Gold Morning happens, we could make barriers of unlucky blocks and hope Scion destroys them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:56 PM

maybe, but he's got low wisdom, not low intelligence - even a very smart machine or reasonably dumb animal would realize 'hey these things actually kinda hurt, imma avoid em'

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:56 PM

A barrier of unlucky blocks. A bad roll here opens a crack to the firmament, I don't want to know what the result looks like when you break like 500 unlucky blocks all at once.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:56 PM

this wasn't opening a crack to the firmament

it teleported austin bodily inside of it

he'd get out if it was a crack

right?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 03:57 PM

Yeah, it was just straight teleportation.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:57 PM

teleporting him in. Close enough. My point is a lucky roll isn't going to ranged KO scion from another dimension.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:58 PM

i mean, scion's real body is planet-scale

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 03:58 PM

Okay, the portal is set up. I'm in a totally different part of the nether now. The waypoint I set at the home portal is several thousand kilometres away.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:58 PM

Oh For Fuck's Sake

i fucking hate lucky blocks

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:59 PM

Also. Austin should have just covered that lucky block with like two layers of stone. Ghast fireballs aren't strong enough to blast straight through two layers.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 03:59 PM

I can teleport to waypoints in the nether, don't worry.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 03:59 PM

Oh that's good.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:59 PM

blew the portal?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 03:59 PM

Yeah, I really should've just covered it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 03:59 PM

honestly i dont trust something to wreck that covering and ruin everything, so

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 03:59 PM

I still need to make some explosives.

I'm sniping some ghasts out of the sky so I can harvest their gunpowder sacs.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 04:00 PM

Do mobs leave legit corpses now

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:00 PM

Yeah, they do.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:00 PM

shadows don't

mobs are living beings

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:01 PM

^

Well, I grabbed some buckets of sand from Earth Dalet, time to rig some explosives inside Shardspace.

Shit. Something was waiting for me.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 04:02 PM

Describe?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:03 PM

...actually, let me check

a piston might get you less animosity from shards than explosives

set up a few repeaters with a delay, tap a button, run in rq

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:03 PM

It's sort of like a twisted, frankensteined arachne with patches of exposed muscle and bone.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:04 PM

it might be able to talk

maybe

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:04 PM

Well, the bottom half isn't actually a spider, it looks like someone tried to make an approximation of a spider with human flesh.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 04:04 PM

That doesn't ring any bells

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:04 PM

yeah shards are horrific

that light pull/pulse/whatever lead you to it? (edited)

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 04:05 PM

Of course I haven't read Ward, and the Firmament didn't exist in Worm, so I have no idea what exactly going on here

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:05 PM

this is almost certainly an avatar of a shard

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:05 PM

Yeah, the light pulse is going from me to it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:05 PM

oh its your shard!

yeah you should try to talk to it

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 04:06 PM

Why is his shard represented by Franken-rachnid

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:06 PM

hell if i know, his shard powers are weird and being made up as it goes

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:07 PM

[Curiosity. Anomaly.]

Oh, it's trying to communicate, I think.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:08 PM

yep, seems like it's communicating in thoughts and feelings, shardspeak rather than humanspeak

'man this is fucking weird, wot you doin here m8' is what i think its trying to say

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 04:09 PM

Are we going to spill our secrets to the cute horrifying eldritch abomination that was once part of a bigger eldritch abomination that planned to genocide the human race as an afterthought?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:09 PM

on the plus side, its disconnected from the main shard network

A dead shard is not connected to the larger shard network and by extension the entities or the hubs.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:10 PM

So, how do I approach this?

It's not about to attack me or anything.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:11 PM

ask it if its able to speak english - i think victoria communicates with her shard in ward?

cant recall

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:11 PM

"Can you speak English?"

[Communication. Data... Confirmation.]

yeah thats fair

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:15 PM

"What do you want from me, then?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:15 PM

a very good question

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:15 PM

["Data. Anything else is secondary."]

"What about other shards? Or the entities?"

["Secondary. I am made to learn, and I want to learn from you."]

"What'll you use that knowledge for?"

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 04:17 PM

Can we ask it not to share its data with other shards

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:18 PM

["I learn for the sake of learning. An academic, if you will."]

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:18 PM

it might take offense to no data sharing if we just outright ask

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:18 PM

"Will you share the data with other shards? I'd, uh, rather you didn't."

["Satisfactory. I can hide your portal from sight in addition, if you desire."]

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:19 PM

oh my god

this is

we dont need to bomb the portal, and you can pop back in for another chat with your shard later

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 04:19 PM

I ship it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:19 PM

this might actually be a good idea

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:19 PM

This is probably the best outcome available.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:19 PM

yeah

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:20 PM

"Yeah, that sounds good to me. Will you, uh, want me to visit later?"

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 04:20 PM

My god. Dice maiden rolls really are better when they're low.

oh my god

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:20 PM

["I am always with you."]

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:20 PM

well, this does facilitate more direct communication - allows for a back and forth

Roll a 10? Trauma. Roll a 2? Hot spider GF.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:20 PM

i feel like we need to figure out a name for it now

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:21 PM

"Do you have a name?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:23 PM

it just seems focused on research and doing whatever it can to facilitate further research, up to and including resurrecting its host

Research and Development?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:25 PM

["I am composed of" Host 5%, Mimicry 15%, Continuity 15%, Explorer 65%]

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:26 PM

i know coming up with a name is an important step in the whole bonding process

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:26 PM

It called itself a scholar earlier, that's an option.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:26 PM

scholar also works

its a thing we can brainstorm

no need to come to a decision now

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:27 PM

Yeah.

"Thanks for the talk. I might get back home, now."

["I will be with you, host Austin."]

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:29 PM

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:29 PM

Agreed. They seem to be on our side, so they can be included in discussions.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 04:30 PM

Could you send them a friend request, maybe?

It could be a bad idea, but...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:30 PM

that seems like a way to keep in its good books

shards can be symbiotic, its a relationship you should work towards

all in all, surprisingly fortunate outcome for entering shardspace

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:33 PM

Okay, I sent a request. Yeah, it really was.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:33 PM

there might be something to that idea of lower rolls being more lucky

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:33 PM

If I didn't have the nether portal, I would've been boned.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:33 PM

oh point, fuck

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 04:34 PM

I wonder if this was more like making the best of a bad situation?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:34 PM

maybe?

fuck up good situations, make the best of bad ones? itd kind of fit the neutral thing with lucky blocks

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:35 PM

Yeah.

Now, do I invite my shard in here?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:36 PM

i mean, it can probably pick up info from your brain about this place

if nothing else, thatd be something encouraging further trust

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:39 PM

I'll let them in, then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:39 PM

heres hoping theyre cool with the whole 'beat up scion so the apocalypse doesnt happen' thing - earth was a textbook case of 'hey maybe exterminating the host species was a bad idea, actually'

Sync - The Movie

Charlie Cooper is a special agent of the future - the mind of a man running entirely on a computer, able to transfer his consciousness to bio-mechanical bodies at will. But when a computer virus corrupts his system, he must face one of his greatest challenges yet: mortality. Enough time has passed that we are now able to share Sync with you on ...

This mod provides clones, or as we like to call it, “shells”. These shells are basically a new individual, with their own inventory, experience level, and even gamemode. However, what they lack, is a mind to control them. That’s where the player comes in. Each shell is biometrically tied to the player who’s sample is used to create it, and will allow the player to “sync” their mind to the other shell, essentially creating multiple player instances. Place a shell constructor down and right click it to provide a sample (warning, this hurts!). The shell constructor cannot work without power, so put a treadmill down next to it and lure a Pig or a Wolf to the center of the treadmill to generate Piggawatts. A lead will help out out with this (you will get it back). The shell constructor will begin building a shell. Once the shell is constructed, you need to place down a shell storage unit and supply redstone power to it. The indicator will switch to green and you can walk into the storage unit to activate it. You will see a radial menu pop up with the list of available shells and their positions. Select the shell in the constructor (labelled with the “Done” indicator) and watch as you are synced into the new shell. Shell syncing works cross dimensional too! Get to the nether and back through a shell! However, you cannot enter or leave shells in The End due to…. technical difficulties. By default, shells provide an “extra life” to the player. When the shell you are using dies, you will immediately resync to the nearest shell available. You can mark a preference shell by right clicking a storage unit with a bed, labelling it as a home storage unit. You can also name storage units with a name tag. This “extra life” feature works in Hardcore mode, so if you have an active backup shell you will not be forced to abandon a hardcore world, but instead resync to another shell.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 04:47 PM

Oh shit.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 04:47 PM

so sync is the obvious choice here, yeah?

Hmm, I dunno, Thunder Hoe is pretty pog...

this is literally the answer to the 'you don't respawn' problem

does it work across worlds too?

Legend BOT 20-Jan-21 05:02 PM

I haven't been keeping up with this. Well, good to know there isn't going to be two cloning threats.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 05:03 PM

yeah, this is more or less 'consciousnes transfer to otherwise mindless bodies that wouldnt be able to do anything without any consciousness'

btw, if you want, we can probably get you in on this, make sure you're able to come back in case of endbringer or something

Legend BOT 20-Jan-21 05:04 PM

That sounds like a good idea, yes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 05:05 PM

there's a waypoint over in alaska so austin can prolly pm you once theyre done

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 05:06 PM

I'll try to set up as much as I can without sync cores.

Thankfully, I can make most of what I need without them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 05:07 PM

thats good

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 05:08 PM

Speaking of cloning. Legend can you make sure Bonesaw never gets Blasto's tech. In canon it happened in like two years but I don't want Slaughterhouse 9000 ever.

Legend BOT 20-Jan-21 05:08 PM

Right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 05:09 PM

oh yeah, they also end up hiding inside dodge's pocket dimension - toybox an all that is something you'll want to keep a good eye on

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 05:09 PM

I guess there was another S-class cloning threat after all.

Legend BOT 20-Jan-21 05:09 PM

Okay, thanks for letting me know.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 05:09 PM

there is so much stuff we need to document for reasons of 'this could potentially wipe out the world' jfc

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 05:10 PM

Maybe we could start numbering them off in another language, ha.

Greek is taken, though.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 05:13 PM

Yeah iirc it was. Bonesaw got cloning stuff from Blasto, then holed up at Toybox after wiping them out. Used Cranial tech to implant actual S9 memories into the clones. Wasn't actually 9000 S9 members, but like 40-50 ish? But included copies of members that are dead right now but that Bonesaw saved the DNA for, somewhere.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 05:14 PM

i think it was more like 150 or so

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 05:14 PM

Oh. 150 then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 05:15 PM

Quoted as being around 281. Originals - Jack Slash, Bonesaw, Hookwolf, Skinslip, Night Hag = 5 1 Gray Boy and 5 hybrid capes. = 6 9 Kings, 9 Screamers, 9 Harbingers, 9 Breeds, 9 Crimsons, 9 Nyx, 9 Psychosomas, 9 Cherish, 9 Hatchet Face, 9 Miasma, 9 Murder Rats, 9 Mannequin, 9 Siberian, 9 Crawler, 9 Winter, 9 Chuckles, 9 Nice Guy, 9 Night Hag, 9 Skinslip, 9 Shatterbirds, 9 Burnscar, 9 Damsel of Distress. 22 sets. = 198 Leaving 72 clones, or eight sets that don't appear in-story.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 05:15 PM

Keeps getting higher lol.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 05:16 PM

well, i dont think its higher than that

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 05:18 PM

I think Blasto had collected DNA samples from a bunch of S9 members, and that's where Bonesaw got it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 05:18 PM

yeah

he ended up getting a fucking ziz bit somehow, so. not that that clone would've worked (edited)

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 05:19 PM

Wait really? Why the hell. Fanfic Blasto is high weedmaking dude, canon Blasto gathers S9 DNA and Ziz bits for fun. And makes weird fungus hybrid ziz flesh clones.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 05:20 PM

canon blasto is fucking insane, to the point it makes bonesaw go 'yeah even i'm not that crazy' as she flushes that project

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 05:20 PM

Yeah, pretty much.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 05:22 PM

Okay, I have the basics set up. I'll be patrolling the Boardwalk in 30 minutes, so I have to put a hold on it for now.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 05:23 PM

How much do you need of someone to make a clone?

Just trace DNA?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 05:23 PM

might wanna test it on yourself first, it's supposed to hurt and you have a brute rating

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 05:23 PM

Like. I'm pretty sure broken ziz flesh is just inert multidimensional crystal stuff. But I'm also pretty sure Ziz would take that excuse to control the clone and cause havoc.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 05:23 PM

A small flesh sample.

Victor wears a breastplate, painted black, coming down to a v-neck, over a blood red shirt with black pants. While he previously wore a mask while operating as "Victor", after the E88's identities became public knowledge he divested of it.[6] He changed his color-scheme after joining The Shepherds, possibly more.[4]

Right. I'm on my way over to the Rig. I'll DM MM.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:28 PM

(I should have never mentioned the IB travel trick to pika) (it caused ideas)

Dubiously Motivated Pika 20-Jan-21 06:28 PM

( :) )

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:28 PM

they'll probably be shot near-immediately on teleporting in the rig

its the most well-guarded place here

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:29 PM

I mean, hopefully, it's a false alarm. But it seems to match up with what I know of IB function

And we know we're missing people in the encounter roll

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 06:30 PM

There's confoam sprayers in every room, but they could possibly just break them in the IB.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:30 PM

it wouldnt carry over to irl

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 06:30 PM

For all we know, the encounter roll could've been a 'yes/no' thing.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:30 PM

Damage doesn't carry over

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:30 PM

and shard fuckery likely wouldnt transfer, due to diferent mechanics

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:30 PM

Could be

But then we still rolled two encounter and only had one

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 06:30 PM

Uber no, Leet yes, Gamer no, Zombie yes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:30 PM

point

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 06:30 PM

But, for now, let's assume the worst.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:31 PM

go directly to lab

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 06:31 PM

That's the plan.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:31 PM

You think the zombie counts as its own entity for rolls?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:31 PM

its a boss monster, so maybe

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 06:31 PM

Maybe?

It's just a theory.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:31 PM

'uber, leet, gamer, mooks'

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 06:31 PM

A Gamer theory!

see, this is why we keep our best tech offworld

Miss Militia BOT 20-Jan-21 06:32 PM

"Phantom theif? Are you a member of the new group calling themselves The Phantom Thieves, then?"

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:32 PM

Ugh. I guess. It fits the rolls but not the logic. Why would Leet teleport a giant zombie into the middle of the ocean and just give you time to take potshots at it?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:32 PM

homage to something

the man is insane and obsessed over video games

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 06:33 PM

It's not something I recognise.

I suppose it could be. Don't recognise it though.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 06:33 PM

The closest I can think of is drowned.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:33 PM

could be an earth bet movie reference

or something

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 06:33 PM

Minecraft has giant zombies too, I think.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:33 PM

Bet video game reference maybe

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:34 PM

yep

but minecraft doesnt exist here

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:34 PM

What color was the zombie

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 06:34 PM

Yeah, a Bet game reference would make sense.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:34 PM

so if this is gamer trying to say he knows austin's specialty...

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:34 PM

Gamer colored?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 06:35 PM

Kind of a greyish-purple.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:35 PM

this feels like it was specifically trying to call out you

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:35 PM

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:41 PM

Last time there was a vigilante they forced her into the wards

Master threat might be enough for them to do it again

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:41 PM

to be fair, they forced her into the wards because she was basically nearly murdering people

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 06:41 PM

Well, there are other vigilantes in the city. SS had just gotten too violent.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:42 PM

Yeah. But. You threatened to Master a Ward.

Malaki 20-Jan-21 06:42 PM

Honestly they prolly dont want to deal with a master anyways

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:42 PM

Rei I mean, not you Austin

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:42 PM

a ward who's on probation, with a track record of violence, where the other master victim started trying to be a better person

still gonna be serious but arguing against it in here isn't gonna solve anything

rei's basically done with that anyways, the threat was made

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:43 PM

Point. It's not really the same situation, but I'm just saying. "I'm a vigilante not a villain" might not help as much as you think.

invite her to record you explaining how your power works for thinker review

they have a lie detector on-base after all, they'll probably just use that (edited)

Malaki 20-Jan-21 06:45 PM

I mean, wasnt the plan to do this with or without their permission? Only way they could stop you is killing you, and getting a kill order on anyone is hard

Miss Militia BOT 20-Jan-21 06:46 PM

"The way you're doing things now is very much illegal. If you joined the Wards, we could help you go through the necessary legal channels."

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:46 PM

Lol the people we target aren't exactly going to consent to the "the heart of their twisted desires" being stolen away from them

Malaki 20-Jan-21 06:46 PM

Nope, no wards, they allowed little miss psycho on and i cant trust them not to do something like that again (edited)

you can just explicitly outline the effects of 'stealing a person's heart' for thinker verification

Or, and here me out, fuck the rules i have dimensional travel

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:48 PM

having people consent to it is effectively never going to happen because there's a threshold that allows it to happen which makes them adverse to the idea of changing their ways

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 06:48 PM

I mean, we do kinda want to have at least an amicable relationship between PRT and Phantom Thieves. If only because it would make it real awkward when Rei keeps showing up to help Austin, otherwise.

I mean, it isn't the game but Rei sure seems to be bucking against authority anyway.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 06:51 PM

the earlier offer to thinker-verify the effects via you explicitly outlining that it won't have overall negative repercussions for them, cause sleeper agents, or any of that, would go a long ways to making sure you dont get a kill order for mastering people or something

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 06:53 PM

So why the hell did you even let her know about you in the first place?

To reveal the memento, a calling card

One way has you as an enemy of the PRT, making things inconvenient at best. The other has our whole group working together fine.

Hmm. 4v2 seems alright. Maybe you could teleport MM over to base. They know Gamer's powerset in general right? Wouldn't do to have them get blasted unexpectedly.

Make sure they know he has an inventory he could pull Leet-tech from.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:15 PM

They have a little general knowledge, but no specifics. I'll grab MM.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:28 PM

I can only hope that parahuman powers count as max-level already.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 07:28 PM

No, powers still grow a bit over time, right?

They could have levels to them.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:28 PM

Sometimes.

I feel like Leet's would start at max and then go down as he uses it though lol

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:31 PM

uber and leet have been captured a lot, yeah?

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:31 PM

Leet was still part of a plan that successfully infiltrated base and used unknown tinkertech. Like, using that tech was clearly at least part of the goal. Hoping that Leet is too much of a joke to do anything is kind of stupid.

But there isn't much anyone can do since IB.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:32 PM

Yeah, they've been caught and escaped more than once.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:32 PM

unlimited get out of jail free card, unless someone caps them in the head while they aren't paying attention - lethally or non-lethally

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:32 PM

Man we need to figure out illusion barriers. Until we do Gamer and all his party members can just stroll in whenever they want.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:32 PM

their id's in the prt databases?

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:33 PM

Doesn't explain why they would target armsmaster

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:33 PM

probably an attempt to copy his specialty

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 07:34 PM

So, who have they ran into today from the Protectorate? Everyone but Triumph?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:34 PM

download all the data his shard has into a book, then absorb that as a skill book

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:34 PM

Don't know if seeing Austin from a great distance counts as encountering

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:34 PM

Triumph is spending time with his family, I think.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:35 PM

copying the powers of a whole protectorate team would call eidolon down on their asses, so their target was probably just armsmaster

a ton of distractions to keep them away from the real target

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:35 PM

I don't know if that's good or bad.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:35 PM

its bad, because leet is probably a bit unstable and nuts from the power the gamer offers

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:36 PM

I still don't know what encountering people is supposed to do.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:36 PM

hes gonna try to escalate his shenanigans now that he doesnt have nearly as much in the way of limits

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:36 PM

Forge? Anything to offer about encounter mechanics here?

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:36 PM

Oh, you told people that Gamer can probably see civvie names floating above people's heads right

Forge BOT 20-Jan-21 07:36 PM

Inform- I'll see what I can tell you, give me a mo.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:37 PM

Yeah, Gamer could've been trying to get civvie identities.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 07:37 PM

Jihan could get them in the webcomic.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:37 PM

that will DEFINITELY earn a kill order

so probably not

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:37 PM

But have you told Protectorate.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 07:37 PM

As well as a whole summary of their personality and history.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:38 PM

If encounter rolls were four groups, 1d2 is size, then we still have one encounter of one left.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:38 PM

I'll let them know about what I know about Jihan. Nora, can you help?

Forge BOT 20-Jan-21 07:38 PM

In this case, the d2s were binary decisions. 1 no, 2 yes.

The encounter roll was for Gamer's group. The more specific roll was 'Leet' and 'Gamer's BS'.

Uber and Gamer weren't included in this.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:40 PM

so something couldn't have been both?

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:40 PM

Oh, since Uber and Gamer weren't encountered on patrol.

Forge BOT 20-Jan-21 07:41 PM

The numerology required was aimed at Austin, so it didn't pick up on Uber and Gamer being elsewhere. There were four d2s. Uber, Leet, Gamer, and Gamer's BS.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:41 PM

i see

so basically, just the patrol with zombies was accounted for

well, if this pans out for leet, we have an impossible threat sitting right in brockton bay - armsmaster's specialty would let him identify the flaws in his own gear, and then he's just a tinker who can make anything and in particular make anything that's small

whose powers scale up every time he uses them

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:43 PM

We're assuming that he tried to copy specialty then? There's no evidence of that though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:43 PM

unknown tinkertech specifically aimed at armsmaster, a well known and respected protectorate hero with a known specialty

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 07:43 PM

Did Uber and Gamer use any tinkertech while fighting the others?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:43 PM

by leet, no less

whos been suffering power incontinence for most of his career

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:44 PM

Well, yeah. Uber's partner is a tinker, he had a lot of tech on him.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:44 PM

He'd fail anyway. Even if he rearranged his corona pollentia ala Bonesaw/Panacea, he's connected to the wrong shard.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:44 PM

im saying he'd do it via skill book, custom made

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:44 PM

Leet was too far away when I saw him, so I have no idea if he used any tech then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:44 PM

not shard fuckery

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:45 PM

That would need leet's shard to interface with both another shard's fuckery and the Gamer power

not that likely

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:45 PM

Huh, there's a scratch on my face. When did that get there?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:45 PM

remote strike

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:45 PM

My armour wasn't damaged or anything.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:46 PM

Scry and die attack?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:46 PM

either it happened in the nether or it happened in the fight with leet

possibly scry and die (edited)

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:47 PM

It could've been then.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:47 PM

It's in a place where your armor covers?

No it had to have been really recent. You regenerate!

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:47 PM

Shit. True.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:48 PM

so they're explicitly targeting you

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:48 PM

So, something Leet did?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:48 PM

i mean it's not that far out there - download info from the shard, copy it down on a book, eat the book if the rig exists in the IB, gamer magic can handle shard fuckery

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:48 PM

I can't believe we're considering him as a threat, honestly.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:49 PM

We're more considering Gamer as the driving threat here honestly He's just probably boosted leet.

Ask if anyone else has unexplained injuries

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:49 PM

...hey dont clones need dna samples

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:49 PM

Because you weren't really explicitly targeted like armsmaster

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:50 PM

we dont know if uber, leet, and gamer targeted other tinkers

is kid win in today

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:50 PM

...There better not be another fucking cloner

School is in session right now.

We're having a debriefing soon, for all of this.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:51 PM

has blasto been seen since gamer came down from boston

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:51 PM

They did actually go straight for the cells where Bakuda would have been if she was captured. It's a bit of support for the tinker thing

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 07:51 PM

I checked, and it looks like Blasto is still around.

He just made a big grab for territory.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:52 PM

Nora, you're supposed to be a tinker, did you ever see or encounter leet/gamer/uber today?

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 07:52 PM

Nope.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:52 PM

gamer's out of context

he knows out of context

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:53 PM

We don't actually know how much metaknowledge Gamer has. Remember Rei thought this was generic superhero world.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 07:53 PM

We do know that he made a beeline for Brockton Bay, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:53 PM

it's safe to assume 'all' then

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:53 PM

Yeah probably

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 07:54 PM

Maybe he was interested in Uber and Leet from seeing one of their shows, maybe he's read Worm.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:54 PM

Probly Worm.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 07:54 PM

Yeah.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:55 PM

All the sponsored are pretty new, that would be real fast to stumble on a minor villain duo channel and then decide to make haste for Brockton.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 07:56 PM

I mean, Gamer would've been the first to arrive here, right? He's been here at least a month, probably.

One of us arrived per week, from what we can tell.

So Gamer arrived on the 18th of March.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:56 PM

Sure, but how famous are Uber and Leet outside of Brockton Bay? Even if he's been here a month that would be a pretty big coincidence.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 07:57 PM

Yeah, good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 07:57 PM

he made a beeline for the bay

that's something we know as a hard fact

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 07:57 PM

That was a couple of weeks ago.

He'd been seen wandering around different cities, before making a beeline to the Bay.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 07:58 PM

I wish I knew how The Gamer interacted with parahuman powers. If this is some kind of Kill them All kinda stuff going on I'd be pretty mad.

He wandered around for a while huh? I guess that's some evidence against metaknowledge.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:00 PM

He could've been grinding up and preparing, though.

If he knew about Bakuda, then maybe he wanted to make sure he'd be somewhat safe from her.

Hell, maybe he needed the travel fares or something.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:01 PM

Could be. This whole problem is why we want to hide information from our enemies. So that they have to go through this headache.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:01 PM

Yeah.

Well, school is out.

I'm getting to my lab to make some emeralds for Austin's thing.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 08:01 PM

Thanks.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:01 PM

Also if Gamer is tanky enough to not be worried about Bakuda's grenades we would be in some real deep shit

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:02 PM

Yeah.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 08:02 PM

He seemed to have some similar skills to Jihan. Mana attacks and elemental spirits.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:02 PM

So he

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 08:02 PM

More of a magic build than a physical one.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:02 PM

wait wtf

Jihan got his elemental summoning book from the abyss market

where did this guy get it

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:03 PM

Yeah, I was wondering about that too.

Maybe he has access to a shop system?

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:04 PM

He would be missing out on like 70% of Gamer stuff if he didn't have some way to access Abyss resources. So yeah, I guess shop system it is.

Which is really unfortunate. Because Abyss shop takes slaves.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:05 PM

Fuck, you're right.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:05 PM

Especially valuable ones. Like parahumans

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:05 PM

What if he can buy slaves?

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:06 PM

Uh. Powerful ones are pretty expensive? There's not much we can do about it if he can except be on the lookout.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:07 PM

Yeah. We can only hope that's not in the cards for them.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:07 PM

hopefully whatever shop system he has isn't the full Abyss website.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:07 PM

...Abyss Auction buys and sells information too. Fuck.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:08 PM

so much for any chance of beating these bastards

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:08 PM

Can he just buy info if he has it, then?

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:08 PM

Naaah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:08 PM

they can just grind up money, buy info, use it to beat us

every time

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 08:08 PM

Dammit. First Steelheart, and now Gamer. How are they so powerful?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:08 PM

...pika, is that something you'd write, actually?

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:08 PM

The info on the Abyss site is sold by real people; if there's no people to sell it to the website on Bet, there's not gonna be Bet info.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:09 PM

Maybe?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:09 PM

steelheart probably traded his growth for power, and gamer is just broken

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:09 PM

Course, Gamer has scrying spells, he could buy those instead.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:09 PM

i wonder if you can make memetic hazards

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:10 PM

I'm... not aware of memetic hazards in that series?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 08:10 PM

Hhhhh

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:10 PM

thats the only way you can feasibly take on these guys

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:10 PM

Oh us you mean.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 08:10 PM

At least this is all only speculation.

We haven't confirmed any of this.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:10 PM

either that or being so stupidly powerful he cant actually come at you without something that bypasses protections regardless its educated speculation, though, which gives it a little weight

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:11 PM

Well, he definitely has some way to access spellbooks that canon gamer needed to buy out in the real world

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:11 PM

We can only hope they were from a dungeon.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:13 PM

It could be another 'sponsor powers don't precisely line up with canon' kind of thing. Like. Nobody in SU had a tinker archive in their head right? maybe he has some way of spreading power that isn't just the gamer system, like Austin's achievement system.

Adding a shop to his power would be the most thematically accurate explanation though. Jihan's power randomly expands all the time. Like when he first took territory, he randomly got a territory and army management mini-system.

God that's another thing to worry about

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:15 PM

...son of a fuck. random injury on terraria, who took down bakuda and oni lee, combined with blasto making a push for territory...

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 08:16 PM

Elaborate.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:16 PM

You think they're working together?

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:16 PM

Yeah not sure what you're going for there

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:16 PM

it seems possible

either that or gamer's got a method of copying powers, this assault on the protectorate doesn't make sense otherwise

has blasto made any public appearances? or is this just his creatures?

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:18 PM

He was there with his creatures.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:18 PM

cloning up capes to kill seems like a great way to get loot based on em

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:18 PM

Fuck.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 08:18 PM

And clones would sell pretty well on the possible slave market, too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:18 PM

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:18 PM

How villainous has Gamer been before now, anyway.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 08:19 PM

He's a relative unknown. A few skirmishes with local heroes, a few robberies.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:21 PM

Would clones actually develop powers though? I thought Bonesaw had to induce artificial triggers with Cranial's tech, or something.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:21 PM

Yeah, that's right.

And even then, I think the clones had weaker powers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:21 PM

to be fair, blasto wasn't working at peak effectiveness under bonesaw

i dont know how his powers work with capes

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:22 PM

Fuck, that's true.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 08:22 PM

We really need some good news right now.

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:22 PM

Yeah but he apparently was gathering S9 samples for a while. If he could clone capes with powers he would have been a reeeaal big issue.

And he wasn't.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:23 PM

i thought accord was partly behind the samples he got

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:23 PM

Maybe leet could sub for Cranial though? If he hasn't done memory manipulation tech before.

Oh yeah, the samples came with Accords lab

But the point still stands. He would have gotten local cape powers if he could easily clone capes like that

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:25 PM

Yeah, Leet being involved means they could substitute his tech for other tinkers'.

And if Leet starts pulling out the tech that he didn't make because it would get him a kill order otherwise...

randomperson44 20-Jan-21 08:26 PM

So we have a possible disaster here. No hard evidence of this clusterfuck happening, just coincidences, but it's a possibility.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:26 PM

Yeah.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 08:40 PM

...

I mean, if we look at the current group, that's three heroes and two villains.

So...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:40 PM

yeah i know, thats why i said im setting myself up for disappointment

its probably gonna try to maintain an equilibrium of some sort rather than weigh things in favor of the good guys

at least, as far as numbers go, because that seems to be the main thing here

a lot of numbers games

earth bet being what it is, the odds for villains being able to do a lot are high, because the heroes wear kiddie gloves until someone decides something is beyond the pale, and even then collateral damage has to be considered

and the balancing factors for sponsorships are probably decided in a bubble rather than while taking into account societal norms and such

im probably being overly pessimistic but every encounter with someone sponsored results in a loss, and the villainous sponsorships have much better infosecurity/general security than we do, i cant help but feel. a lot more free reign too (edited)

for better or worse, yall are gonna be changing the world

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:55 PM

might also allow for some degree of better shapeshifting, if youve got that

is it a crossbow in her palace or reality?

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 08:56 PM

Well, it was in the palace, but I stole it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:56 PM

both, then?

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 08:56 PM

SS is officially going to be not a bitch, now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:56 PM

this is gonna be Something

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 08:56 PM

God, yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:56 PM

at least m/s screening is gonna likely confirm your power doenst have knock-on effects like they were worried about

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 08:56 PM

Oh, good point.

And they already have Feint as another example, too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:57 PM

yeah true, hes already been through the screening

two examples might be enough for the think tank tbh

once is a fluke, twice is something you can compare and contrast details of

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 08:58 PM

And I have a couple of moles in the Wards and Protectorate to get those juicy insider deets.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 08:58 PM

Hey.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:59 PM

alright, so nora's doing ender pearl gathering plus some r&d

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 08:59 PM

I'm in a debriefing right now.

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 08:59 PM

I was thinking of going to Armsmaster's palace again.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 08:59 PM

oh, you may wanna pop into shardspace to get a look at shardflesh given its crystalline and weird

you should, rei

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 09:00 PM

Huh, good idea. I could see if Austin's shard would give me a sample.

We should probably get a name for them at some point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:01 PM

i'll review what they were made of

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:01 PM

Scholar? Arachne?

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 09:01 PM

I'll grab that sample first, then go enderman-hunting.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:02 PM

the adventuring scholar?

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:03 PM

Maybe Scholar of the Miles or something if we wanna get more fantasy-ish.

My vote is Spidermum.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:03 PM

i have a handy dandy list of shard names from other shards

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 09:03 PM

Oh, good idea.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:10 PM

actually im being dumb, lets see if a link works

https://worm.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_Shards

i was typing out all the ones with stuff that was relatively easily confirmed as basically being correct

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 09:11 PM

Yeah, the link works.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:11 PM

it seems like as far as naming conventions go its either - The [Noun] or - [Adjective] [Noun]

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 09:11 PM

Yeah, that's what I'm seeing too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:12 PM

the Adventuring Scholar seems like a decent one at this point in time, all things considered

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:13 PM

Travelling Scholar?

Even just Exploring Scholar, for the 65% Explorer.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:14 PM

yeah point

any particular favored topics @[]?

[] BOT 20-Jan-21 09:15 PM

After being invited into this group, I am coming to understand 'magic'. It is a fascinating topic.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:15 PM

would you like something magically-related as a term of address, then?

[] BOT 20-Jan-21 09:16 PM

I have no opinions on my designation.

fair enough, i suppose. still, prolly will come out sounding nicer if its on stuff you like

Well, I have the sample and a dozen ender pearls. \

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:25 PM

your power's probably telling you all kinds of surreal stuff about all that, yeah?

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 09:25 PM

I'm not sure how it is for other tinkers, but for me, it's more like I have a very extensive education in gem-tech.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:26 PM

ahh

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 09:26 PM

But yeah, from what I can tell, these are very interesting.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:26 PM

for other tinkers, its like they start with a finished idea and work backwards

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:26 PM

You found 12, right? Maybe we can split them 50/50.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:27 PM

thats probably a good idea

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:27 PM

I can make a shell constructor and five shell storage units.

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:27 PM

Well, I'll go into Armsmaster's palace, then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:28 PM

yknow, it occurs to me that this may technically result in yall being noctis capes if you can switch between bodies

and if the other bodies being stored count as resting

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:28 PM

Ugh, my texting app is being a bitch.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 09:28 PM

Oh, like dream bodies, kinda.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:28 PM

yep

it's homestuck all over again

Is Rei going to get Jack Slash's morph, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:29 PM

thats cursed

Huh, might as well.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:31 PM

rubs hands together evilly. another one for the fandom

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:31 PM

It was popular a while back, right? I guess I can see what all the buzz was about.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:31 PM

'popular' is understating it

homestuck was popular enough to break twitter in like 2011

alongside newgrounds and its own site

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 09:32 PM

Oh yeah, it was huge. I got into it pretty late, but it was huge when it was in its prime.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:32 PM

it shaped parts of fanon culture

anyways

defiant shenanigans

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:34 PM

I'll send Armsmaster a message that he might be having some of those coming up.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:34 PM

aight, nice

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:35 PM

No response. I guess he's leaving me on read.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:35 PM

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:35 PM

Nah, I haven't started yet.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:35 PM

ah

fair

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:36 PM

...Maybe he just doesn't really trust me anymore after our last conversation.

I mean, I told the truth, but it was all so outlandish that he didn't really believe any of it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:37 PM

well, eventually he'll either have a choice of accepting the truth or getting delusional

hes already fairly delusional, palace and all

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:37 PM

Yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:37 PM

we can solve that problem once defiant's issues are dealt with

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:38 PM

Meeting's over, and I don't have an afternoon patrol. I might start making those Sync machines.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:38 PM

thats a good idea

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:38 PM

Get some insurance for everyone else.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:38 PM

yee

rei, you in armsy's palace yet, or nah?

cause getting you a bonus body would help

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:39 PM

Yeah, I am. How soon will you have the stuff ready?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:39 PM

In a few hours, I think.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:39 PM

most of it is already ready

right?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:40 PM

Well, I can start making your shell in 20 minutes or so, if you wanna come over.

Sync cores are pretty tough to make.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:40 PM

does give you some time to kill to read homestuck

Fuck it, sure.

yee

knowing all of them you need to check out is important (edited)

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:44 PM

Yeah. I just need the locations of two more, I think.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:44 PM

then, to bait shadowmaster into the dragoncraft

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:45 PM

Yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:45 PM

...wow, that combo of shadow and armsmaster sounds like. an overly literal description of a palace ruler

lol

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:45 PM

Okay, the Shell Constructor is set up.

Huh, it does.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:46 PM

cant believe i stumbled on that glorious name im gonna use it from now on

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:46 PM

The shell constructor will need to take a small tissue sample, but I can heal you afterwards, so it'll be fine.

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:46 PM

Um.

That doesn't fill me with confidence.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:47 PM

its like going to the doctor's for a shot, probably

at worst, the dentist's

only you get instantly healed after

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:47 PM

Dentists are scary as fuck, dude

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:48 PM

i know, i know, but you have magic on your side

Just come over. Do you want to be immortal or not?

and this means immortality

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:48 PM

Right, right. I'm omw.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:49 PM

Ah, there you are.

You just need to put your hand on the panel I'm indicating. It'll only take a second.

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:49 PM

Sure.

"Ow! Fuck!"

It just scooped out a chunk of my hand!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:50 PM

Oh What The Fuck???

jesus

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:50 PM

Sorry. It needs a decent flesh sample to start from.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:50 PM

will it always be like that???

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:50 PM

Siiigh. At least your regen works pretty fast.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:50 PM

Unfortunately, yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:50 PM

...can you make more clones from the clones

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:51 PM

It should work on dismembered limbs too, which is... lucky?

Yeah, I can.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:51 PM

...thats kinda fucked, but yeah lucky

some part of me wonders if there's any parts of hero left preserved enough for that

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 09:51 PM

I can see the clone slowly being formed from the feet up.

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 09:52 PM

Oh shit, can you resurrect people?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:52 PM

...

I can try?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:52 PM

it's definitely an idea

frankly, i would be thrilled to have hero back

@Legend so we may have good news, assuming a few conditions are met

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:52 PM

Well, after everyone in the group has a shell, I can start trying all of that.

Legend BOT 20-Jan-21 09:53 PM

You think you can clone Hero.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:53 PM

its possible it could be an honest-to-god resurrection, we arent entirely sure

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:53 PM

Yeah. I have no idea if it'll work, but if it does, then there'd be full continuity of consciousness.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:54 PM

i linked sync, the movie, earlier, it may have something like that in there

it did mention that the guy had been taken offline for a couple weeks before, i think - that does imply this should work

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:54 PM

We can only hope.

Legend BOT 20-Jan-21 09:55 PM

You just need a tissue sample, right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:55 PM

it took a noteworthy chunk out of rei's hand, but yeah

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:55 PM

Yeah. Joker's clone will be done in ten minutes or so, and the shell constructor will be freed up then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:56 PM

then it's a few hours until the sync core is made

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:56 PM

Well, they only take 20-30 minutes each. I just need to make six of them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:57 PM

point

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:57 PM

One for the shell constructor, and one for each of the shell storages.

Armsmaster's gone missing.

god. fucking dammit leet

@Defiant what's going on?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 09:58 PM

Defiant is offline. He's never offline.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 09:59 PM

oh hell

his palace intact?

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 09:59 PM

He would've been hacking something, right? That's what MM said.

So he was taken in the middle of that, presumably.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 10:00 PM

Well, something software-related. I just assumed it was hacking.

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 10:00 PM

Should I check on his shadow?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 10:00 PM

yes

god yes

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 10:01 PM

There's a vent that leads right into his cell. I saw it when I was there last time.

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 10:02 PM

Okay, I'll see if I can find that, then.

Dammit. If I had been in his palace at the time, would I have seen what happened?

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 10:04 PM

By the way, were there any hacking tools on that laptop of yours, Nora?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 10:04 PM

he could've programmed some

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 10:04 PM

No. Just some of my wards files and stuff. Plus Minecraft and a few other games. Bluestacks for Pokemon Go.

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 10:04 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 10:24 PM

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 10:24 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 10:26 PM

one of you may be able to get shadowmaster to the dragoncraft while the stairs are being made

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 10:26 PM

I'll hunt for glitches.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 10:26 PM

if he opts to stonewall you you may want to trade off

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 10:28 PM

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 10:28 PM

You said that you think Gamer is interrogating him, right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 10:29 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 10:43 PM

the last one is probably gold morning

Nora BOT 20-Jan-21 10:44 PM

Yeah, that's what I think too.

The last glitch is on the roof, overlooking the sunrise.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 10:44 PM

you'll probably be scion, id guess

Rei BOT 20-Jan-21 10:44 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 10:44 PM

most important figure in that scene, aside from taylor

But Scion dies, doesn't he?

He's stabbed in the head and torso and then shot.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 10:46 PM

depends on whether or not you have people clinging to your legs i guess

its perfectly natural - people like when they get overwhelming support

Austin BOT 20-Jan-21 10:50 PM

Or how competent she's going to be.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 20-Jan-21 10:51 PM

yeah

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 21-Jan-21 02:47 AM

velocity can't affect as much the faster he goes, but triumph is really good at controlling an area due to his power

dauntless... idk how yall are taking him down

Rei BOT 21-Jan-21 02:47 AM

Okay, they're all down. We didn't encounter all of them, though.

oh hell yeah

Austin BOT 21-Jan-21 02:47 AM

MM, Assault, and Battery.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 21-Jan-21 02:47 AM

very good news

dauntless is probably overpowered, but you may be able to direct him towards shadowmaster

cause some real conflict there

Nora BOT 21-Jan-21 02:48 AM

Second generator down!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 21-Jan-21 02:48 AM

itll probably get you booted off the console

Nora BOT 21-Jan-21 02:48 AM

I see Dauntless and Fake-Terraria together, I'll send 'em his way.

That, uh, looked cathartic for Shadowmaster, at least?

Austin BOT 21-Jan-21 02:51 AM

Here's Velocity and Triumph.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 21-Jan-21 02:51 AM

velocity is squishier than triumph, cant wear any armor due to his power

well, nothing lighter than skintight bodysuit

Rei BOT 21-Jan-21 02:52 AM

He'd be a lot harder to fight if I didn't have moves that hit all enemies at once.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 21-Jan-21 02:52 AM

true that

and so he reaches terminal velocity

Rei BOT 21-Jan-21 02:53 AM

Nice.

I feel kinda bad fighting my co-workers, even if it's fake versions of them.

thats a badass looking achievement

do either of these mods have anything rolled into them?

Pam's does come with cooking skills, though.

how does pam's beekeeping interface with vanilla beekeeping?

and does iron chests come with iron shulker boxes?

Austin BOT 21-Jan-21 11:53 PM

well, yeah, but it does provide a lot of utility even without

Nora BOT 21-Jan-21 11:53 PM

So what benefits does Pam's have over just buying or making the food normally?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 21-Jan-21 11:54 PM

it'd have to be something power-assisted due to the physics changes

otherwise everyone could just do pam's naturally

Forge BOT 21-Jan-21 11:55 PM

Pam's comes with skill at cookng and knowledge of how to make cookware. Furthermore, it allows for any crop to be treated into a Minecraft variety, which among other things allows for eventual automation in a way that normal crops don't.

Colin BOT 21-Jan-21 11:55 PM

What is this?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 21-Jan-21 11:55 PM

if it's treated into a minecraft variant, does that mean it offers a regen effect to anyone who eats it?

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 12:10 AM

Good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:10 AM

also, another thing: colin, notice anything new now that all that's over and done with? like, say, a minimap?

or the fact you can think significantly faster if you try now?

we've had to be kind of selective in who to let in here, info security and all cause half the damn planet is run in circles right into the ground by thinkers, but being in here means you get access to austin's non-knowledge powers

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:14 AM

The power sharing? I noticed that before. I still have some tools in the inventory from when I was making the arm.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:14 AM

oh dang, neat

wasnt aware you were picking up on that

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:16 AM

And I can perfectly understand the need for security. I think I was using it unconsciously. I also remember looking towards the door when someone was about to come in, even when I didn't see or hear them normally.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:17 AM

ahh, good to know it's that inuitive, more or less

you should also have some powers from rei's side of things due to how the palace was cleared, and nora can hook you up with Gem powers given some time (edited)

rei's powerset works best when people dont know about the mechanics, which is part of the evasiveness from earlier - keeping secrets from government organizations doesnt work well to foster good relations, so a bad rep was kinda naturally gonna occur if steps werent taken to negate it

steps were not taken, so some distancing was needed so we could operate at peak effectiveness to get things sorted out, alongside not getting austin kicked to the curb or anything

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:21 AM

I see your point. A power to go into the cognition of your target could be compromised if they knew about it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:22 AM

you have no idea in persona 5, someone actually knows about how that stuff works, vaguely, and nearly kills some of the protagonists by temporarily killing themself, with paramedics on standby to resuscitate

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 12:22 AM

What's your persona called, by the way?

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:23 AM

That would very much be an issue. It's named Khronos.

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 12:24 AM

...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:24 AM

...given all the time travel that seems to surround you, makes sense

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 12:24 AM

Yeah, what they said.

The name also reminds me a bit of something. It was the name of a demon that belonged to someone in... something silver.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:26 AM

the more things change, huh

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:26 AM

I'm not sure I understand.

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 12:26 AM

You don't need to!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:26 AM

tl;dr multiverse theory allows for a lot more than you'd think, and nora used to be on our side of things

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 12:28 AM

Yeah. I used to be from the same world as those guys, but I was brought here.

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:28 AM

When was this? You've legally existed for 14 years here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:29 AM

you know how the whole defiant thing happened?

identity of a person from the future inserted into a body in the past?

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 12:30 AM

Yeah. It happened around the time the original Nora... got into an accident.

The original Nora isn't really... here anymore, though. I don't have any of her memories of anything.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:32 AM

You are the team little sister, tho.

at least there's that, however well it's working

heres hoping we can get you a therapist

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 12:37 AM

I think the only ones in our group who don't need therapy are the Captain and Paranoia Fuel.

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:37 AM

Who?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:37 AM

rei adopted a cat that briefly had us all paranoid about bakuda

Paranoia Fuel BOT 22-Jan-21 12:37 AM

"Mrow?"

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:38 AM

People tend to jump to conclusions on here. It's both a blessing and a curse.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:39 AM

on the plus side, sometimes its conclusions we're right about, lets us figure out things that little bit faster or figure out if something needs urgency

on the other hand, we literally have a cat around named paranoia fuel because of how paranoid earth bet can make us

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 12:40 AM

No offense, but your world is a shithole.

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:40 AM

None taken.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:41 AM

its definitely a fixer-upper

we cracked clone-based immortality a while ago, re: the whole hero thing

earth dalet, arctic base

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:41 AM

Yes, I remember.

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:42 AM

I'll have to get back to that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:42 AM

yeah, the whole sync core

hm. as for the tissue sample, i assume legend's got some heroically aligned tinker working on making something big enough, if there wasnt just enough cryogenically preserved somewhere

Legend BOT 22-Jan-21 12:44 AM

Oh, I've been mentioned? I'm getting someone to clone some flesh from a DNA sample for that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:44 AM

ayyy

Legend BOT 22-Jan-21 12:44 AM

Of course, there's no guarantee it'll work.

So what's been happening recently?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:45 AM

OH BOY HAVE WE GOT SOME STUFF TO SAY

so, colin ended up stumbling on a lucky block [basically random effect that could be good or bad] and triggered it, which got a version of his consciousness from the future planted in his head, only things got kind of messed up in the transfer so rei and the others had to work at clearing his palace to help clear that up

Legend BOT 22-Jan-21 12:46 AM

I see...?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:46 AM

its been crazy

also austin's passenger is happy to side with them over the entities so we dont need to worry about that (edited)

we talked with said passenger, theyre on here rn (edited)

[The Magicologist] BOT 22-Jan-21 12:48 AM

Greetings, Coruscant Knave.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:48 AM

honestly it was a pretty alarming turn of events but that seems to have worked out for the best

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:49 AM

For a 2/100, it ended pretty well.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:49 AM

yeah honestly i was worried scion mightve gotten pissed off or something

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 12:49 AM

Think we have enough gold for another lucky block?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:49 AM

max luck lucky block, to clarify

we dont wanna go full random thats how you crack the firmament

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:51 AM

Well, first things first we need to go back to Earth Bet and report Colin as no longer missing. We can't just stay on Earth Gimel forever.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:51 AM

oh yeah true

lets not forget, still got a power that needs deciding on

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:52 AM

Shoot, that's right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:52 AM

these are kind of equal in my mind because pam's could synergize excellently with future mods that create like, supercrops and stuff, but iron chests vastly reduces storage needs and can allow for large inventories of items once you unlock the end (edited)

plus minecraft food, gold apples

trees

grass

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 12:54 AM

So, which one do we want more right now? My vote is chests. Bigger chests sounds pretty pog to me.

Legend BOT 22-Jan-21 12:54 AM

I think mass-produceable healing is very valuable, on the other hand.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:55 AM

not to mention, auto-farming could lead to just straight up infinite resources if you get Equivalent Exchange (edited)

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 12:55 AM

Yeah, I guess you wouldn't be as interested in big chests, huh?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:55 AM

auto-crafters are part of buildcraft yeah?

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 12:56 AM

Emerald chickens are better for EE imo.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:56 AM

garden worlds, pika

auto-harvesting garden worlds

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:56 AM

I haven't made any auto-crafters yet, but yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:57 AM

you can turn the results of said worlds into vast amounts of food to end world hunger once ziz is dead

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 12:57 AM

Emerald chicken worlds, on the other hand. Turn all of that into food instead.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:57 AM

point

i think its a 'utility vs practicality' argument here

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 12:57 AM

I like both equally.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:58 AM

like practically speaking, iron chests is bound to do you the most good in the short term

as far as utility goes, though? healing food plus your regen, and anyone can use it?

and itd be useful for anyone to use?

...actually hey

does pam's food spoil (edited)

Forge BOT 22-Jan-21 12:59 AM

It's not instant healing by any means, but it can replace a hospital treatment. It does not.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 12:59 AM

holy shit

we need that feathery prick out of the sky asap

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:00 AM

Seconded.

We're not exactly in any major need of storage space right now either. Normal chests are perfectly fine.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:02 AM

thats a solid point, but it could be a while. still, as one of those fundamental mods, may not be as long as i fear

plus, endbringer attacks

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:03 AM

Yeah. Even if we don't do things on the large scale, we could do em on a smaller scale.

So, which are we picking?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:07 AM

given storage isn't at a premium, and you can farm trees for more chests if it does come to that, id say pam

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:07 AM

Sounds good to me.

Plus, it'll synergise with Cooking for Blockheads.

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:11 AM

It's fine. Besides, I think this whole thing had a net positive.

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 01:12 AM

No, why?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:12 AM

does thinker verification speed up the process, is what im wondering

Man, if only we had someone with a reputation of being a powerful thinker on our side.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:13 AM

i mean, it opens up a whole mess of potentially unpleasant options if we do start askin about that, but it is a thought

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 01:13 AM

Right, Austin? Wouldn't that be just swell?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:13 AM

like if this got kicked up to watchdog and they said 'hey he actually probably is mastered' or something due to shards and ooc powers not getting along

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:14 AM

Ah.

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:14 AM

The first section is still a work in progress, though.

But yeah, I was planning on sticking up for Colin anyway.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:16 AM

well, here's hoping this doesnt get unpleasant

if nothing else, colin'll probably be another good example of rei's effects in action

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 01:17 AM

Are we planning to come clean about that?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:18 AM

i still say you should be real about the effects, but not the mechanism

cause like

the effects are the visible part, the part you dont need to hide

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 01:18 AM

I mean, about the fact I used my power on him in the first place.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:18 AM

oh point

hm... considering he nearly axed off his arm, we'd need to claim another master did that and we fought off the influence

which is effectively true tbh

so, lie detector would prolly like that yeah?

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:19 AM

If we said that, we'd need to give details, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:19 AM

'We def fought off the master, guys!' -Source[s]: Bro, trust us.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:21 AM

i mean, it is technically true, he was being 'mastered' - by himself, but still

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:21 AM

I could just use my 'power' to 'determine that he's not affected anymore'?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:21 AM

point

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 01:22 AM

Isn't he still lowkey being mastered by himself, though?

He'd have a pretty noticeable personality shift.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:22 AM

i mean, your power induces personality shifts

armsmaster to defiant is one i could see happening

given it actually does happen

just this time a lot more painlessly

they already know you went for shadow stalker

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 01:23 AM

Which is kinda sad, given that the whole process we went through wasn't exactly painless.

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 01:24 AM

My problem with saying 'Joker did it' is that the arm thing could be attributed to her too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:24 AM

could just. yknow, report the whole lucky block thing too

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 22-Jan-21 01:25 AM

why not just tell the truth?

oh, is this the thinker thing?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:25 AM

...how outlandish does this sound, actually

colin, legend, yall still have a relatively outside perspective on all this

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:27 AM

Austin could get in trouble for not reporting it sooner, and have the tinkertech committee start complaining.

Legend BOT 22-Jan-21 01:28 AM

We could also just bury this in redacted paperwork.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:28 AM

ohhhhh

oh thats a good idea

Legend BOT 22-Jan-21 01:28 AM

Did you report the problem to the regional PRT director?

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:29 AM

We didn't.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:29 AM

fuck

Legend BOT 22-Jan-21 01:30 AM

Anything on secret powers would go through them, so since you didn't tell them, you'd still get in trouble.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:31 AM

there is the fact that we weren't even ready to start testing lucky blocks yet, if that factors into anything - the one colin used was technically a half-finished prototype (edited)

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:31 AM

Oh, good point!

We can say that Armsmaster ran into an unfinished prototype of my tech and accidentally tripped it.

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 01:33 AM

How will you explain the fact your tech nearly made him cut his arm off?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:34 AM

could pass it off as an extreme negative reaction - lucky blocks are supposed to have wildly random effects, only the 'complete' ones are balanced to be wildly positive or negative

that result was completely unpredictable

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:35 AM

They'd get in trouble for putting something that dangerous where I could trip over it and not telling me, but that is an idea.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:36 AM

it was in alaska

and before, it was in storage

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:36 AM

And she does know about the Gimel base, yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:37 AM

so neither are exactly 'trip over it' options, especially given austin didnt manage to trip over it up in alaska (edited)

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:37 AM

Well, it sounds like we have a cover story, then.

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 01:38 AM

Cool! Now, how do we explain him going missing without outing me?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:38 AM

hm. damn good question

considering the last thing colin was seen doing was tinkering on the metaverse app

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 01:39 AM

So, what, we launch an investigation into the app and inevitably let the info on my power get out?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:40 AM

...could just frame it as the lucky block getting colin austin's powers and colin getting lost on a random world somewhere

its even technically true

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 01:41 AM

She knows I can share my powers, so we can even skip some of the twisting of words.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 01:41 AM

yeye

and the delay was more or less just searching for him

and getting him back home

it even fits with your earlier uncertainty how your straight up physics warping powers worked - those dont exactly have an instruction manual for 'this world is this, this world is that' etc etc

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 01:42 AM

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 03:49 PM

How long has it been since the Uber&Gamer attack on the Rig, by the way? It seems like it's still been barely any time at all but it's hard to tell from this end. Any more news on what they're doing with the mysterious tinkertech?

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 03:50 PM

The attack was maybe 2 or 3 in the afternoon, and it's 8 at night now.

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 03:53 PM

Unfortunately, the piece of tech Leet used didn't have any indicators of being used. Not much on the outside I could use to identify it either - it was built into a TV remote. The only identifying feature was a set of black vials attached to the back.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 03:54 PM

i still think it's probably something to try and copy powers, given it seems like tinkers were the target of this attack

bakuda, potentially austin on the boardwalk, you

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 03:55 PM

Ah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 03:55 PM

it'd cover leet's one weakness, and suddenly he goes from the guy who can build anything once to the guy who can build anything, period

well. outside of normal tinker weaknesses

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 03:56 PM

They could've gone after Triumph too, but they didn't. To be fair, he was at home at the time, but...

So me, Kid Win, and Squealer will have to watch out.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 03:56 PM

they could've also gone after wards, but yea

it seems like for now they wanna play it safe

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 03:57 PM

Hmm. Maybe he can do it with power interactions with Gamer. Tinkers are way more skill-based than other parahumans, I think. Maybe he could scan Tinkers and turn that into a Gamer skill-book somehow.

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 03:57 PM

Potentially people in other cities too, if they are affiliated with Blasto.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 03:57 PM

yeah, thats exactly what i was worried about random

it may be more 'potion of tinkering' though, given the remote

it did have vials specifically attached to it

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 03:57 PM

How many vials were attached?

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 03:58 PM

Around twelve.

It also looked like they could be swapped out, though.

They were made of a black substance, so I couldn't see what was inside them.

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 03:59 PM

I can't think of anything the remote resembles from video games. It might just be that I don't play enough of them though. Or it could be that Gamer convinced Leet to stop limiting himself to game themes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 03:59 PM

id assume its something that helps nullify powerstuff - gamer is pretty generic (edited)

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 03:59 PM

Blood? I had a cut on my face after my encounter with Leet, despite the fact my armour wasn't damaged.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 03:59 PM

it'd make sense if he joined up with blasto, or copied his power

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 03:59 PM

Could be generic magic juice. Or fuel.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 04:00 PM

blood in high enough qualities does look pretty dark

Colin BOT 22-Jan-21 04:00 PM

No, the vials themselves were made of a dark glass. Obsidian, possibly.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 04:00 PM

hm. then its probably something to nullify powerstuff, whatever the remote harvested (edited)

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 04:01 PM

I don't think generic magic juice or fuel, he would just use one bigger container for that. If there were seperate vials it probably holds something that needs to be kept seperate.

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 04:01 PM

Yeah, good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 04:02 PM

thats probably supporting evidence for 'power copying device' - blending together powers tends to be a bad idea

could be they're making bootleg cauldron vials

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 04:02 PM

Oh. Fuck.

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 04:02 PM

Tbh Cauldron vials are already bootleg, it can only go up from there.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 04:03 PM

if nothing else this is liable to backfire horribly on them and call scion on their asses

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 04:03 PM

Probably not, Austin literally went in the firmament and things are still fine

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 04:03 PM

they went to a part of the firmament covered by their shard, which is disconnected from the main network (edited)

leet specifically targeted armsmaster, who's a natural trigger, so that's at least one opportunity for things to go horribly wrong

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 04:05 PM

So are Bakuda and, presumably, Blasto. More points of failure.

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 04:05 PM

Meh. The point is, I'm pretty sure that if all the out of context BS that's happened here happened in canon, Zion would have already reacted. But it hasn't.

malaki's 'what if this happens' mindset is liable to get you killed like that

Yes

bill cipher

thats auto-apocalypse

besides, gravity falls focuses on mob spawns, which are disabled in most dimensions

Malaki 22-Jan-21 06:16 PM

I mean, if you get the right wards you can keep his bullshit out/in

Also plenty of items

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 06:16 PM

...you wanna tell me shard fuckery counters conceptual fuckery again pls

cause the magicologist couldnt even understand magic until they got invited in here

the right people might be able to do something but the whole triumvirate wasnt able to stop steelheart, so i wouldnt bet on it

Malaki 22-Jan-21 06:18 PM

Naw im saying there are ways to keep him in using magic and a shard doesnt have to do it

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 06:18 PM

that assumes prep time

oregon had that whole magic bubble set up long before the story began, if i recall

Malaki 22-Jan-21 06:19 PM

Also they could just end up no getting bill first

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 06:19 PM

given gravity falls has a multiverse, theres probably a bill

Hours, Minutes, Seconds oregon had that whole magic bubble set up long before the story began, if i recall

Naw, there are hotspots of weirdness that keep the weirdness in, there is a formula to it

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 06:20 PM

all i know is gravity falls would be further bad news for earth bet

given there was a very likely to go down apocalypse stopped by protagonist bs (edited)

Malaki 22-Jan-21 06:22 PM

We're just lucky it was pika with SU and Rie with persona, cause there is serious possibility for apocalypses done by both being left unseen

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 06:22 PM

no kidding

at least su takes some direct action to cause the apocalypse, and rei has protagonist bullshit on her side

and also that it seems like original igor is in the velvet room

Malaki 22-Jan-21 06:23 PM

Oh Pika can u make transporter pads with enderpearls?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 06:23 PM

pika's still researching em

transporter pads may have nothing in common with how enderpearls teleport, given it seems to have something to do with like. light beams or smth

still, heres hoping that lets pika crack into that branch of technology with some ideas

or just straight up improve on it

Malaki 22-Jan-21 06:26 PM

Bonzia mod in there right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 06:27 PM

is that a bonsai tree mod

Malaki 22-Jan-21 06:28 PM

Yeah

It's great for auto trees

Without doing a bigass tree farm

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 06:28 PM

its probably in there, given waystones and such was

kind of useless given this isn't skyblock where space is important

still, a minor help if all earths suddenly stop existing i guess

or if austin needs to miniaturize everything ig

Malaki 22-Jan-21 06:31 PM

Just good for not having to have huge tree farms when it isnt neccisary, setting up the infrastructure for a tree farm is better spent on other stuff

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 06:31 PM

theres definitely better mods tho, i think we can both agree on that

ee, mystcraft plus quarries, etc

Lucky_Plucky21 22-Jan-21 06:33 PM

Yay

Malaki 22-Jan-21 06:33 PM

For tree farming or saving space? Cause honestly it's the best for tree farming, and mystical agriculture is better for generic resources, and has extensions for other resources

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 06:34 PM

i just dont think its the hottest thing since sliced bread

austin's gonna be overloaded on quality of life stuff when they need firepower

this does kind of fall under quality of life

Malaki 22-Jan-21 06:36 PM

It's less quality of life and more automation of resource generation when you consider hopping bonzias, and most mods dont really add firepower, tho draconic'd be great for that (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 06:37 PM

austin's already got chickens, which are going to eventually produce metric tons of resources every day

Malaki 22-Jan-21 06:39 PM

I mean if he needs singularities at any point for crafting he'll need morr than that but ok

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 06:40 PM

point, but austin's nowhere near that level right now

theyre nowhere near secure enough to prep for the future like that

they'll need more eventually, yeah, but right now they just need better gear for security and such

Malaki 22-Jan-21 06:42 PM

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 07:03 PM

I'd like to stress that this is basically the shotgun approach - it's pulling from everywhere it can reach to find the right soul.

I have no idea if/how it'll work.

It's an attachment on one of the shell constructors, so I can just use it on the existing Hero shell.

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 07:05 PM

Huh. I came over, and I'm surprised Hero wasn't naked in there. It auto-generates clothes?

Malaki 22-Jan-21 07:05 PM

Anything that isnt armor...or he was clothed before he was put in the machine

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 07:05 PM

It would've been cheaper if I didn't add it, sure, but I felt like you wouldn't want to be naked right after you died.

It's just a generic bodysuit.

what?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 07:52 PM

david desperately needs therapy

Legend BOT 22-Jan-21 07:52 PM

I mean, you're probably not wrong on that bit, but

Endbringers? David?

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 07:53 PM

Probably, but not for certain.

Malaki 22-Jan-21 07:53 PM

When did they first start showing up

He def woke them up

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 07:53 PM

in what we know of how things originally played out, scion said 4 words given to him by his own version of path to victory to stun david long enough to kill him

'You Needed Worthy Opponents'

Malaki 22-Jan-21 07:53 PM

He has like no control over them, just the wake up button

Legend BOT 22-Jan-21 07:54 PM

Behemoth first appeared in '92.

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 07:54 PM

Was that when he started getting ennui and all that

Malaki 22-Jan-21 07:54 PM

Yeah, when did his ennui start?

Legend BOT 22-Jan-21 07:55 PM

...

Look.

I can believe some of the stuff you say.

But this? This is a sick joke.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 07:55 PM

it's not pleasant to hear, i agree

its 100% fucked up

but at least one thinker gave 60% odds he was behind it, and ziz tried to make a clone of him after scion got him

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 07:56 PM

Oh yeah. I'm not sure giving him more power would really make more EB though. In canon there were still three more after Behemoth died, so it's not like his power is that low on power (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 07:57 PM

said thinker was tattletale, a person whose power is effectively superhuman intuition

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 07:57 PM

In a future seen by a, uh, jailbroken Contessa, Glaistig Uaine uses his faerie to summon and control endbringers, I think.

that shit was a thing

Malaki 22-Jan-21 07:59 PM

But it is true

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 07:59 PM

Well. Just get him therapy and it's mostly a moot point

Legend BOT 22-Jan-21 08:00 PM

I'm here because Terraria saved me from Earth Reckoners. I owe them a debt.

Can we just drop the topic?

yeah, im down for that

Not dropping getting him therapy

great

twice in a row??

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 08:06 PM

Now that he's showed some pretty useful powers, what if they decide to just lock him up?

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 08:06 PM

Teleport?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:06 PM

if they did that with every useful parahuman, there wouldnt be any left to fight the endbringers

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 08:06 PM

Cauldron only has access to alternate earths, which austin can just. Teleport away from.

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 08:06 PM

No, but Austin can resurrect people.

That's HUGE.

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 08:07 PM

Okay, first of all, they can't really contain me.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:07 PM

if anything, contessa's probably auto-factoring in austin's survival to her paths now

'maximize parahumans'

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 08:07 PM

Not only can I teleport, I can shift dimensions, even to ones shards can't reach.

Malaki 22-Jan-21 08:08 PM

Or she cant path him cause magic fucks with shards

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 08:08 PM

Also, my power needs me to experience new things to grow.

If they want me at my peak, they just have to let me do what I'm doing right now.

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 08:08 PM

Right. Good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:08 PM

i mean, it was stated that shards cant path magic or perks, but austin is still a person

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 08:09 PM

Actually if they want you at your peak quickly they have to arrange things so that there are never any breaks on the escalation train

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:09 PM

the eye will probably just be going 'hmm yes lets make sure they dont die here' and intervene unnecessarily to add extra luck

Malaki 22-Jan-21 08:09 PM

Right but she cant include his tech into her paths, so she doesnt know how important he is (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:09 PM

...hero is back

sure she cant path the tech itself, but she doesnt need to

she can path the effect it seems to have

'if you type this in, you get this output' - its calculator logic

its like how she hacks tinkertech, or so id assume

Malaki 22-Jan-21 08:13 PM

The eye would have trouble grasping the soul retreival part

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 08:13 PM

Does it really matter if Contessa is interfering or not? Either she is and there's no point resisting, or she isn't and there's no point worrying.

randomperson44 22-Jan-21 08:13 PM

Ehhh. I'm pretty sure she can just path tinkertech. It takes a looot of experimenting to figure out all the inputs/outputs on something that's completely blackboxed

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:14 PM

good point pika

id argue there is a point knowing but

actually yeah if austin can encounter her then that might be another milestone

'encounter a boogeyman of earth bet'

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 08:15 PM

Oh, that's true.

I mean, they already could've, potentially.

They did go to Cauldron's base, after all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:15 PM

true, but youd think that would be a little more achievement worthy

mightve just encountered alexandria or smth

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 08:16 PM

Didn't I already get a Cauldron encounter achievement, though? It was one of the older ones.

'Illuminati Confirmed', I think.

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 08:17 PM

Even if you already got it, it would be good to hope for another one.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:17 PM

might be a difference between encountering cauldron the organization and contessa as an agent

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 08:18 PM

Could be.

i dont wanna just be like 'this is two useless mods and a good one'

Malaki 22-Jan-21 08:31 PM

It's a usefull mod for if he didnt have a team

Forge BOT 22-Jan-21 08:32 PM

Basically, it lets you turn 'monsters' into cute girls. They can still decide to turn back at any time, unless you make it worth it to them to choose to stay human forever.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:32 PM

what are the upper limits?

Forge BOT 22-Jan-21 08:33 PM

Basically, it just can't work on shard-based things until the systems gather enough shard data. Anything else is fair game, though.

Malaki 22-Jan-21 08:33 PM

...so he can waifu his shard (edited)

Forge BOT 22-Jan-21 08:33 PM

Note that monsters are not guaranteed by any means to become non-hostile at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:34 PM

it could give austin a human form

Forge BOT 22-Jan-21 08:34 PM

If we get enough data on shards, then sure.

Do they want to be a big tiddy anime girl?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:34 PM

forestry is useful, and if the magicologist doesnt mind doin some r&d with this, thats an option for shard research

Malaki 22-Jan-21 08:35 PM

Imma say mob talker for possibly undoing C53s

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:35 PM

i think forestry is the better short term option

Malaki 22-Jan-21 08:36 PM

I think mob talker is better for the long term and his pr

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:36 PM

mob talker might be useful for helping out c53s but forestry is the practical option

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 08:36 PM

Okay, but how much shard data is enough to turn an endbringer into a big tiddy anime girl?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:36 PM

rei raises a good point

its also potentially useless on c53s due to them being shard based

Forge BOT 22-Jan-21 08:37 PM

I can't really quantify it. We just need shards to share data with us, so it could take anywhere from seconds to centuries.

Malaki 22-Jan-21 08:37 PM

I mean C53s might be the easier of the shard based entities

Since some of them have organics that kinda work if you squint

Forge BOT 22-Jan-21 08:38 PM

To clarify, the 'shard-based' thing means things that are explicitly either shards or are shard-like enough. Case 53s are on the table, if they don't mind being girls.

Malaki 22-Jan-21 08:38 PM

Ones like weld might be a problem

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 08:38 PM

Wait. Can it turn regular people into big tiddy anime girls?

Malaki 22-Jan-21 08:38 PM

C53 arent exactly regular

Forge BOT 22-Jan-21 08:39 PM

It might mess with some powers without that shard data, yeah.

And it can.

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 08:39 PM

Dude we'd be able to help so many trans chicks, fuck yeah!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 08:39 PM

damn

thats a very good point rei

and since case 53s are on the table, its a tie for me between forestry and mob talker

@[The Magicologist] you feel like weighing in?

Malaki 22-Jan-21 08:40 PM

Welp, Mob talker it is i guess? Forestry doesnt really have too much that is super useful rn iirc. Like his chickens give him infinite wood

[The Magicologist] BOT 22-Jan-21 08:40 PM

If I could get in contact with other shards, they could provide data as well.

Otherwise, I have no opinion.

Nora BOT 22-Jan-21 08:41 PM

Yeah, what can Forestry give that we don't already have? We'd need to compare some stuff, but things like bees would be near-useless.

No, better not, just help more endermen by turning them back into enderpeople

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 11:00 PM

oh point

you can prolly just keep in contact via dms

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 11:01 PM

It would just be easier to communicate with him if he could speak English. I'll keep it to DMs, then.

tizian.s 22-Jan-21 11:01 PM

We basically just met the guy, maybe after we get to know them better

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 11:01 PM

Yeah.

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 11:01 PM

To be fair, you all let me in here pretty quick.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 11:02 PM

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 11:02 PM

Yeah, good point.

tizian.s 22-Jan-21 11:02 PM

And you badly need the oversight

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 11:02 PM

Lol fair

tizian.s 22-Jan-21 11:10 PM

Ok so, i would say Austin does his turn monster in people thing, i would say rei, how about you get by some camping stuff for all the resulting enderpeople, so that they have at least tents, sleeping bags, food etc, does that sound ok for you guys ? (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 11:11 PM

prolly the best thing you can do there yeah

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 11:12 PM

I have a nice nest egg built up, so I can get some camping gear.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 11:13 PM

actually, austin, how fast can you build a house?

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 11:14 PM

Maybe an hour per room, including creating all the bricks?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 11:14 PM

how about cabins?

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 11:14 PM

Log cabins? I could do some of those.

Not at the same time as helping people, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 11:15 PM

log cabins after you've finished your nether exploration

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 11:15 PM

Sounds good!

Rei BOT 22-Jan-21 11:16 PM

I grabbed some camping stuff anyway.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 11:16 PM

Okay, I've gathered every enderman I could find.

Ennelwyn is very good at leading when he wants to, it looks like.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 11:20 PM

well hes a community leader, so

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 11:20 PM

There's maybe fifty of them all in all. Yeah, he'd have experience with leading and stuff.

I'm glad I can do something as heroic as this. It really feels like I'm helping people here.

Igor and Lavenza seem to be the same, though, and I got 'Novice Blueprints' from Colin, which just seems to be a reskinned 'Novice Duplication'.

do phantoms spawn in the nether

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 11:59 PM

No, they don't.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 11:59 PM

if you ever have to do a prolonged expedition in there, you can probably forego sleep entirely

Austin BOT 22-Jan-21 11:59 PM

I don't need to sleep very long to stop them from spawning, anyway. I could go to sleep at 5:55AM and that would still reset the timer.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 22-Jan-21 11:59 PM

wow

so, how goes leading the ex-endermen out the nether?

or did you already complete that and move onto cabins

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:04 AM

Yeah, we're out.

I've recruited some of them to help build cabins.

...Some of them are just kids.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:05 AM

man. thats fucked

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:05 AM

Yeah.

I mean, it makes logical sense. There's no way there were no kids in The Skylands before the corruption thing.

It's just...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:06 AM

kind of fucked up to see evidence of something massive hurting kids like that

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:06 AM

There's eleven of them. Six teens and five preteens. The youngest couldn't be older than three.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:06 AM

jesus

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:06 AM

Yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:06 AM

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:07 AM

...No.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:07 AM

Fuck

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:07 AM

I think the endermen roamed pretty randomly. They're all from different places.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:07 AM

that makes sense, i dont know how lucid theyd have been

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:08 AM

There was only one other person that Ennelwyn knew - his husband - and that was because they stuck together as close as they could.

So now Ennelwyn and Ennelheim are the de-facto leaders of the burgeoning village.

The adults are looking after the kids well enough.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:09 AM

at least the problem is on it's way to being fixed

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:10 AM

Yeah. Huh, they all seem to be pretty young, actually.

I guess they have eternal youth or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:10 AM

probably one part that and one part mob talker

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:10 AM

Oh, good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:10 AM

once there's enough people, they can probably send further scouting missions out into the nether, looking for more endermen via teleportation

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:11 AM

Water evaporates in the nether pretty fast, so they'll need, like, bandoleers of water or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:12 AM

packed ice-based canisters full of the stuff?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:12 AM

Yeah, that could work.

I feel like it should be more significant that I have a village of 50 people with powers indebted to me, but I just want to help them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:14 AM

and that, austin, is how you know you have your priorities straight

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:15 AM

Yeah.

I was planning to work more with the chickens tonight, but I think I'll stay and help out here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:16 AM

id say that's for the best

the chickens dont need you around to breed anyways, yeah?

just need to be in the right device

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:17 AM

They need help to breed, but I have them in chicken breeders, so they'll just keep breeding without input.

It could be a lot more streamlined if I was there, but I'd rather stay here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:18 AM

prolly for the best you stick around there for the night

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:18 AM

Actually, I have a couple of smart chickens, I might bring those over. They just lay normal eggs, but they can be bred to do it very fast.

I hope the villagers here like eggs.

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 23-Jan-21 12:19 AM

ill help with the crops!

thanks captain

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:19 AM

Okay, thanks!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:20 AM

wait. if you're using exclusively minecraft crops, does this mean you can just automate the harvesting with water buckets and dispensers

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:20 AM

I wish.

Doing that would just flood them with water instead of uprooting them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:21 AM

damn

Colin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:21 AM

It occurs to me that this would be a good test-run of using your powers to help people.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:21 AM

sociologically, you mean?

Colin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:22 AM

Yes. Resource management-wise too. The Simurgh can't interfere there, so you don't need to hold back on uplifting them at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:22 AM

oh my god

thats brilliant

...wait. madison 2009, simurgh used interdimensional devices

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:23 AM

Fuck.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:23 AM

i mean, dimensional effects are her weakness, so if we can make a magical one to take the feathery fuck out of the sky, we're golden

or just never let her get close to a Haywire cache again

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:24 AM

Well, I'll have them prepare around Endbringer attacks, just in case. Maybe we can put lots of magic stuff around the village to try and ward away her prying eyes.

I was planning to make a whole lot of totems there anyway, but there's probably other stuff I can do.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:26 AM

...hey austin

did you accidentally ziz-proof part of the rig

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:26 AM

I... Maybe?

I have no idea how it would interfere with her, but potentially, yeah.

Colin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:27 AM

We'd have to test that against other precognitives, but that could potentially be very, very useful.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:27 AM

austin. you need thaumcraft lol

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:27 AM

I do.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:28 AM

hey, can you teach the other villagers how to make mob talkers?

because that could accelerate this whole enderman process pretty nicely

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:29 AM

Oh, good idea.

Dubiously Motivated Pika 23-Jan-21 12:35 AM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:37 AM

...nnno

tizian.s 23-Jan-21 12:37 AM

What happens if you use mob talkers on something that was not intelligent before, like an animal or something. Apropos animal,in minecraft you can tame wolves, does that mean you know how to tame wolves ? Because if yes that is awesome and you have to do it, you could maybe even let Nora implant a gem in it to make a parawolf, if it is even possible for her to do that. After that we could then use our mob power on her. And viola, we have a Gem werewolf that can control their transformation.

And i vote 111

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:38 AM

mob talkers work on monsters exclusively, i think that was stated

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:38 AM

Mob talkers only work on 'monsters', which basically just means magical/unnatural beings of some stripe.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:38 AM

okay im sold

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:49 AM

Yeah. The veto system is kinda risky, since we could veto something decent and then pick something shit.

...Wait, the number pick system. If we got something decent round 1 and something bad round 2, we could go back to the first one round 3.

Not useful now, but when we get more 'story milestones'...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:51 AM

yeah

i also have a theory that using ender portals, you might be able to break into the end early

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:51 AM

Okay, it's 5:50, I'm going to sleep.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:52 AM

Your powers were based on those of endermen. Sleeplessness is one of them.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:54 AM

So it all ties back to The Corruption.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:55 AM

a sinister, mysterious foe...!

tizian.s 23-Jan-21 12:55 AM

Soo, have you checked in with MM to see if you can help with the shadow stalker investigation so that we can help taylor get out of the hellhole that is her current life ? (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:55 AM

shit, that's still ongoing isnt it

or. wait

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:55 AM

Rei stole the treasure from her palace.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:55 AM

shadow stalker wouldve fessed up yeah

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:56 AM

Yeah, she did.

I didn't mention it because there was so much going on already, but she did.

So it looks like Taylor is probably getting out of that shitshow.

tizian.s 23-Jan-21 12:57 AM

That basically means there is nothing stopping us to begin helping Taylor, i just remembered, what about Dinah, is she okay, because we really need to make sure coil doesn't get her.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:57 AM

dinah alcott's already been kidnapped but coil's probably next on the palace-based chopping block

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 12:57 AM

I think I arrived after Coil already got her.

Oh yeah, good idea. Coil is probably the best palace to target next.

tizian.s 23-Jan-21 12:59 AM

Ohh, shit right i remember now, we definitely should bring taylor in if we take down coil, with her power she is really good at recon.

Are we somehow able to get her better insects ?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 12:59 AM

im already pretty certain about his palace keywords too thomas calvert, prt building/endbringer shelter lair, fortress

tizian.s 23-Jan-21 01:02 AM

Coil is one of the few people I would not mind killing, he is really fucked up.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:03 AM

I'll go to the PRT building to check there.

Correct keyword, wrong place.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:04 AM

i dont think you need to be near the palace to enter it

you can check via server list if you're in it even if you see no signs of it (edited)

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:04 AM

No, we do.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:04 AM

oh

thought it could work like kamoshida's palace

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:04 AM

Or else we'd just go from a locked room every time.

I think Kamoshida's palace was at their school, wasn't it?

Kaneshiro's was the whole city, iirc.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:05 AM

yeah, but they were walking around in a 'normal' city for a while before that

try that

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:06 AM

Is this when they first entered Kamoshida's palace or something?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:06 AM

yeah

ryuji mouthing off about kamoshida causes the app to activate, they accidentally enter palace-space

there's also sae's palace and the whole plan with cognitive joker and all that (edited)

even if you aren't in the center of the distortion, you should be able to enter the same... general worldspace?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:08 AM

Was the police station near the casino/court? I vaguely recall it being close enough that it appeared there too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:09 AM

it was far enough away that in the area joker was kept in, you couldnt hear anything from it

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:12 AM

Yeah, good point.

Okay, I wasn't able to get into Coil's palace with the endbringer shelter thing, though it accepted the word. It seems like I have to be within a few blocks of it to work.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:13 AM

fair enough

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:13 AM

Eh, I could just get my motorbike and have a drive around.

take a peek from a distance, see whats up there?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:15 AM

I've looked around the general area, but I still can't see it.

I guess it's hidden, even in the metaverse?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:15 AM

probably

i recall something about a parking lot?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:16 AM

I'll check around.

No, I can't find anything.

Maybe I need to find it in the real world too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:19 AM

...hey, colin? do you have an alternate vision mode that dulls most things but highlights a few others (edited)

its one of rei's powers, but you should have that powerset after getting your persona

Colin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:20 AM

I do. It's strange to use this with real eyes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:20 AM

that ought to let you find secret entrances and such

Colin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:21 AM

Ah, that's useful.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:21 AM

basically, anything a phantom thief would wanna be on the lookout for - important books, secret treasures, hidden doorways, that sort of thing

hm... part of me says 'recruiting tattletale and taylor for this will probably give us an in' since tattletale is technically held at gunpoint and regularly tortured and god knows what else by coil, and taylor wants to take him down anyways

and both are technically working for him

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:22 AM

I'm just wondering how we'd approach them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:23 AM

thats a damn good question

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 01:23 AM

If they took over Coil's organisation, would that be an alright consequence?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:24 AM

the goal is getting coil to dismantle it himself, i believe - the undersiders all have their own personal reasons they think they cant go to the prt

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 01:24 AM

Ooh, Coil palace raid?

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 01:25 AM

Maybe you could message the account AllSeeingEye on PHO, I know that's the name of Tattletale's account on there.

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 01:26 AM

I'm probably the best person for this, tbh.

I'm not on the best side on the Protectorate, and I was the one who took out SS's palace.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:27 AM

regent is heartbreaker's kid, someone who got his emotions burnt out, but his recent behavior indicates he wants to get away from that life grue needs financial support and a good 'legitimate' background to take care of his sister which coil's providing, and probably has issues with authority on par with taylor rachel has been on the run since childhood since she mistakenly got labeled master - her dogs are just very well-trained, she has a thinker ability for it that overwrote human social cues tattletale's got a gun to her head and taylor's got A Variety Platter Of Messes

Well, I guess a mod was picked out, yeah.

But it went straight to the top?

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 01:33 AM

Okay, meta logic: This would be kept on a spreadsheet.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:34 AM

oh yeah prolly

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 01:34 AM

The jump from 22 to 23 would be the spreadsheet being re-sorted to bring Wireless Redstone to the top.

That specifically implies that it's sorted.

If it were me, I'd keep the mods all nice and sorted by some method.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:35 AM

thats fair

honestly im the sort of disorganized mess that id just be like "okay add +1 to 22 now"

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 01:39 AM

I'll keep an eye on the news, though.

it'll probably be difficult to keep him on the down-low for more than a week or so

as one of the most legendary tinkers out there, people gon be hyped

and if silverbell is anything to judge by, i doubt he's chilling at home rn

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 01:42 AM

Hero's more of a planner than a get-out-there-at-once guy in Silverbell, but Legend very much is that kind of guy in it, and Hero's probably in a fragile emotional state right now. It could go either way, really.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:42 AM

point

honestly i could imagine hero just kind of chilling over at legend's place

it makes the most sense - friend supports friend and all

oh wait. during the reorganize, actually

given the sorting process seems pretty binary from what little i see, we probably can figure out where terraria is if we keep in mind numbers

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 01:52 AM

Forge said that the numbers would change, right? But not how they'd change.

So maybe 'the numbers changing' is just a mod going up to the top.

Forge just used the lazy method instead of scrambling it altogether.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 01:52 AM

thatd make sense

surprisingly, lazy method makes it even more engaging given it offers the potential to guess a good mod

one thing i do have to wonder though: are there milestones for unlocking other sponsor-based powers?

Colin BOT 23-Jan-21 04:21 AM

What do twerk and hwyla mean?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 04:21 AM

twerking is basically shaking your ass up and down at something hwyla is a mod that lets you know what you're looking at

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 04:26 AM

bone meal

the most basic thing ever, basically

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 04:26 AM

Specifically, bone white chickens for en masse bone meal.

Gryan 23-Jan-21 04:26 AM

Personally in favour of Hwyla for the additional thinker aspect, but it's your choice

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 04:27 AM

Yeah, I think I prefer hwyla here too.

Well, this leaves me with some time before my first patrol.

Chickens? The village? Other tinkering? Socialising?

Gryan 23-Jan-21 02:04 PM

Hmm, would say chickens to finish the current goal of getting ender chickens, but socializing with the rest of the BB Protectorate team could probably be fun, getting to know your patrolling partners better and all that.

(Woo, social anxiety making me nervous interacting with the characters in the RP but apparently not by going meta) (edited)

Dubiously Motivated Pika 23-Jan-21 02:09 PM

(Lol, fair)

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:09 PM

Yeah, chickens is probably the best idea for now.

I want to be able to expand the Sync setup as much as I can, and ender pearls are the one resource I don't have easy access to yet.

I'll stick with the chickens and go for ender pearl chickens as fast as I can.

Gryan 23-Jan-21 02:17 PM

(Is the armor made from Dark Steel from Ender IO the current best armor Austin can currently make (once they get the resources)? Was checking out Ender IO wiki and saw that you could install upgrades like speed and such on them and thought damn, Austin would probably like this.) (edited)

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:18 PM

Yeah ender chickens will be great for alot of stuff and the chickens you need to get there also help

Dubiously Motivated Pika 23-Jan-21 02:20 PM

(Yeah, dark steel armour is the best they can make so far. Psimetal armour is also an option for auto-casting Psi spells, but dark steel is probably better overall. They're still on enchanted iron atm.)

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:21 PM

I'm thinking of making some emerald chickens after that so I can automate more of the production process.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:21 PM

Also good for if you roll EE

STUPID AMOUNTS OF EMC

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 02:21 PM

^^^^^

Emerald chickens are the best production rate:EMC ratio out of all the chickens.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:23 PM

Also, I can stop relying on Nora to help me grow emeralds.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:23 PM

Honestly hope you roll a crafting/storage mod next, doesnt have to be AE but that'd be great

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 02:23 PM

I mean I don't mind, but emerald chickens will be faster at it.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:24 PM

Prolly not the highest quality emeralds unless the quality doesnt change

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 02:24 PM

YABBA or Storage Drawers would be good, and Applied Energistics would be even better as far as storage goes.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:25 PM

The grade of the materials is generally pretty good, though I feel like they could be better.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:25 PM

That one is matter to energy and back iirc

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:25 PM

There doesn't seem to be any change in material grade for better quality chickens, though.

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 02:25 PM

Yeah, it's the one where you store items on computers.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 02:28 PM

You know how Thaumcraft has a research table? Do you think that'll be more realistic here, as in you can actually research and make your own stuff?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:28 PM

I'd assume so, yeah.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:28 PM

...hey anyone remeber the crafting recipe for salis mundus?

Gryan 23-Jan-21 02:29 PM

Isn't that just one redstone, flint, bowl and three different types of... magic crystals, whatever they're called?

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 02:30 PM

Yeah, that sounds right.

Vis crystals?

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:30 PM

Vis crystals yeah

Cant you get those in loot chests? Even in the nether?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:31 PM

I'd guess I could get them through sifting, but if not, I might have to look through loot chests or lucky blocks.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:33 PM

Yeah, using salus mundus early to make a thaumonomocon can hopefully jumpstart ur thauncraft

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:33 PM

I can only hope.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:33 PM

The portable hole is a great movement option

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 02:33 PM

^

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:34 PM

That sounds like something from a cartoon.

Oh, glowstone chicken!

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:35 PM

Portable hole is pretty much peak tooning around

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 02:36 PM

It's exactly what it sounds like. You can make a temporary hole in anything to pass through it.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:37 PM

Huh.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:37 PM

It gets wonky with microblocks but that shouldnt be a problem

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:37 PM

Oh yeah, real life doesn't have glitches like games do, so it shouldn't be a problem at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 02:40 PM

from the depths of unconsciousness... i awaken

Gryan 23-Jan-21 02:40 PM

(Far as I'm aware, Austin has the resources required to make a sag mill and alloy smelter required for the production of dark steel rn, not sure about the materials required for dark steel itself tho)

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 02:40 PM

I don't think it would be worth it to look through lucky blocks for vis crystals. You need a fair amount of them, unless one block gets a ton all at once it would just be kind of hazardous.

Gryan 23-Jan-21 02:40 PM

(Can probably tell I'm slightly hyped for an armor upgrade)

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:41 PM

...maybe Nora could make a way to teleport on top of the nether using something that mimics lion's portal ability (edited)

hey actually, nora might be able to check out the properties of a sync core later too

Dubiously Motivated Pika 23-Jan-21 02:42 PM

(Hell, there's dark steel chickens, though they'd be a ways out since they come by way of obsidian chickens.)

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 02:42 PM

Does the top of the Nether even exist in this non-glitchy world? The whole reason the top of the nether exists at all is because they didn't want sky in the Nether, and you need a height limit to stop computers from using up too much memory. But if it's a whole real dimension maybe you just keep mining upwards indefinitely.

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 02:43 PM

Actually yeah, how do sync cores work? Are they machines, or all mineral throughout?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:43 PM

I have no idea about the Nether's height limit. Maybe I can check when I get the chance.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 02:44 PM

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:45 PM

Only one way to find out eh?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:45 PM

Looks like it.

Gryan 23-Jan-21 02:45 PM

Is that really important at the moment though?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 02:45 PM

it isn't, no

ender chickens are more important

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:46 PM

Build limit is 128 blocks but you can build on top of the nether

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 02:46 PM

austin can get those infinity things without needing bedrock

and even then, dont have the right know-how to use em

nora might be able to make use of them, but

its grains of infinity i think

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:47 PM

Wait no, bed rock layer is below 128 sorry for the confusion

Just below it is bedrock, and after that it's all nether

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 02:48 PM

im pretty sure austin doesn't have a build limit

this isnt minecraft, after all

He might

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 02:48 PM

@Forge ?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:48 PM

As for sync cores, they're essentially ender pearls upgraded with magitech. They have special circuitry and detection tech in them that use the ender pearl's properties to sync up with everything they need to.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 02:48 PM

Just something for later

Forge BOT 23-Jan-21 02:48 PM

No build limit is in place.

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 02:53 PM

Are there no faces on the player list?

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 02:53 PM

Maybe it's just Calamity getting pissed that they had to make a change for the mob thing, so they made some unagreed changes of their own

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:53 PM

Oh. I shall elect to hope the fuck not.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 02:54 PM

thats a good question by nora, is there no way to check?

because you'd have like a window of a minute as far as looking for people go

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 02:55 PM

No, there's no faces on the player list. Which is weird, because I swear there were in the game.

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 02:55 PM

Maybe we could just... Ask Forge?

Hey Forge? What mod was removed? And what mod was the replacement?

Forge BOT 23-Jan-21 02:57 PM

Information on the removed mod cannot be disclosed. The mod was mentioned once previously in an example. I can give you that much, but no more.

The replacement mod was Clay Soldiers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 02:57 PM

alright, time to dig through all forge's posts

oh god

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 02:58 PM

So, this mod would either be for Calamity, or for something to do with the new sponsor.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 02:58 PM

minestuck was mentioned fairly recently

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 02:58 PM

Oh. Oh no.

And that would fit with the new sponsorship theory, wouldn't it?

Homestuck crossover.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 02:59 PM

shit.

if this includes sburb, earth bet is a write off

it would just be gone

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 03:00 PM

fuck.

And that raises the question of 'what would Sburb do to alternate Earths'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 03:00 PM

oh thats simple, nothing id assume

sburb is planet-limited as far as a reckoning goes

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 03:01 PM

If we're really unlucky, it could just destroy them all too. If we're not, they'll be fine and we can just evac everyone.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 03:01 PM

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 03:02 PM

Unless Homestuck fate BS causes copies of Sburb to appear on every Earth.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 03:02 PM

several earths are uninhabited

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 03:02 PM

Oh, good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 03:02 PM

and the game requires someone to copy the code from the frog temple

then turn it into a game, thus paradoxically ensuring its own existance

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 03:03 PM

So, the answer is 'it'll probably be fine in the grand scheme of things, but at least one Earth will be fucked'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 03:03 PM

might be.

skaia can choose where it's defense portals let out

worm's multiverse would be a good thing in that scenario, if it can reach out to other earths (edited)

That is if it is minestuck that was replaced in the first place, but I don't have a better idea

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 03:06 PM

Wouldn't be fair to the other sponsors if something like that was allowed

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 03:07 PM

potentially very powerful

homestuck is a story about growing up after all

Forge BOT 23-Jan-21 03:07 PM

Rather, automatic world-destroying events are off limits as a part of the powers' natural progression.

Unless thaumcraft isnt on the list or something

Forge BOT 23-Jan-21 03:07 PM

Thaumcraft is on the list.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 03:13 PM

I'm breeding for a diamond chicken at the moment.

After that, I just need to breed that with a nether wart chicken to get an ender pearl chicken.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 03:14 PM

How far down the list is Nora? If inserting counts as a new player on the list she should be at bottom 0.5%. If it counts as the same person, she should be at like 10-30% from the bottom.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 03:15 PM

ooh point, we can actually check

rei we can check, too

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 03:16 PM

Let me check my real name.

Oh, that is in the bottom 0.5%!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 03:16 PM

oooh

so yeah, we can check for new players like that

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 03:16 PM

Good.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 03:17 PM

best of all, austin can use anime thinking time to check the names, so no new ones come up before a list of who all's named is made

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 03:18 PM

Since we have an exact time, we could just check once every hour for people arriving right on the hour.

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 03:18 PM

Right, time zones.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 03:18 PM

But you have a house now I guess.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 03:45 PM

Hey Nora. Austin said before that he did figure out how to put waypoints somewhere other than where he is, but it's too difficult because the coords change in relation to the sun or the center of the galaxy or something. I figure that a galactic level civilization has a solution to the whole moving coordinates thing. Could you make a program that calculates new waypoint locations?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 03:45 PM

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 03:47 PM

I mean, you'd still need to know the location you need to teleport to and a way to get the timing precisely right, but yeah teleportation to any place you can get the coordinates of would be pretty good

Malaki 23-Jan-21 03:48 PM

Luckily the timing has decent room for error

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 03:48 PM

I can't wait for the weekend. School sucks.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 03:48 PM

Is there a way to trigger your teleport on a timer? Because if the waypoint constantly moves in relation to another celestial body, mistiming by a fraction of a second could telefrag you.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 03:49 PM

This is just setting the waypoint, so we could probably use calculations to check if it's right afterwards.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 03:49 PM

It moves in relation to the center of the universe iirc

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 03:49 PM

Yeah, we can hope it works. Maybe. Although the actual description of the skill says "immunity to mental disorder", maybe he just won't have a palace at all.

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 04:18 PM

Well, nothing to do but try when we get the chance.

I'll check the metanav.

Andre Vasil is a hit!

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 04:18 PM

Please work lol.

Wooo.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 04:18 PM

hes heartbreaker's kid, and i doubt 'perfect mental health' is acceptable for any sponsor

'Fraid I can't help with that question.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 04:21 PM

instant barrier, palace? for the keywords i mean

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 04:21 PM

I don't think any specific IB would really be a real home base for Gamer, they need maintenance to stay up for longer periods of time. So every time he leaves a barrier for too long it probably collapses, making them not really good permanent houses. Might need to get into an IB in general though.

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 04:22 PM

No and no. Yeah, he's a wandering villain, so I have no idea if he'll even have a 'home location' at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 04:22 PM

given theyre stayin around in brockton bay, 'brockton bay' or 'uber & leet's hideout' may also be acceptable ones

'heartbreaker's home' might also do it

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 04:23 PM

No, no, and no.

did you try instant barrier?

wait.

one of the ones that we know of

heartbreaker is a serial rapist, are you surprised

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 04:24 PM

So we don't even have any info on him.

i did see a page online for 'generate more heartbroken kids'

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 04:25 PM

Well I doubt he can trigger now since gamer's Mind, so there's that at least.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 04:25 PM

andre vasil was the first result

Andre Vasil, Black Sheep. He can fire a shotgun-like cone of blue-black light that causes an intense surge of resentment and paranoia. In addition, the targets of the last blast he's fired all radiate that emotion like Vicky's aura until he next fires his power. Catch a team of people all in the same blast and they're almost guaranteed to tear eachother apart within minutes, emotionally if not physically.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 04:26 PM

Is this an official page

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 04:27 PM

its reddit

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 04:27 PM

If it's about generating more Heartbroken, I'd assume not.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 04:27 PM

still, its the only result for '"andre vasil" parahumans'

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 04:28 PM

I'm not sure i trust that to be canon here But I guess assuming he might be hiding an emotion blast might be a good idea.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 04:28 PM

No guarantee they're the same guy, but I'll watch out for anything like that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 04:28 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 04:29 PM

we can probably deduce some factors of his psyche about his trigger or would-be trigger

(tyt)

master/blaster indicates long range social issues, probably escaped from heartbreaker before triggering

mightve encountered one of his agents elsewhere, causing said trigger

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 04:31 PM

Austin can see if he can find anything about that powerset in PRT databases?

Once he's done fighting here anyway. (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 04:31 PM

resentment/paranoia reminescent of the 'hit them with fear until they stop' tactic of heartbreaker enough to provide internal turmoil and further conflict as per standard shard operating procedure

andre mightve given a shit about his family which also explains the aura generation

bonus conflict points due to paralleling how heartbreaker ruined everything (edited)

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:16 PM

I'll look him up when I get back to base.

Oh! Weakness makes Lung shrink!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:17 PM

nice!

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:18 PM

So, profiles on Upgrade and Chargeburst so far.

Upgrade is a tinker, and he keeps pulling new gadgets out of his ass somehow. Like, a lot of gadgets. None of them are very strong, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:19 PM

inventory

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:20 PM

I mean, that makes sense, but he has a whole lotta stuff shoved in it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:20 PM

oh he has colin's power then

miniaturization would allow for greater inventory use given i think its size restricted rather than slot restricted i think?

have all the gadgets been small?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:21 PM

Yeah, buncha small gadgets. They're all kind of spy-like - they look like normal stuff but they're actually tinkertech.

Chargeburst is some sort of brute. They can make bursts of force from their body, but they have to take periodic breaks where they don't use their power.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:23 PM

definitely sounds like something akin to battery's power

either that or some blend of assault and battery's abilities

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:23 PM

Maybe.

Lung's retreating!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:24 PM

go get him?

if you wipe out the ABB you might get another fucking milestone lmao

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:24 PM

If I do, that leaves Dauntless to fight the other three alone.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:25 PM

oh nvm then

hm... going off the previous theory, if you solo out andre's friends he'll probably come after you in particular

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 05:26 PM

You could both leave Gamer alone? Just both go after Lung.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:26 PM

point

if all goes well we can eventually brute force his palace keywords

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:27 PM

Yeah.

Do we go after Lung, or try to grab one of Gamer's allies?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:31 PM

hard to say whats the right call here - are gamer and co just tryina disengage or draw this out

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:32 PM

Disengage, I think? They aren't going into an IB yet, though.

Upgrade and Chargeburst are separated from Gamer atm.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:33 PM

you might be able to capture lung, but probably not the gamer or his friends

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 05:33 PM

Have they showed any other powers aside from the ones you mentioned?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:33 PM

No.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:34 PM

Right.

admittedly this means we will need to move all the members of e88 that we know the identities of up the palace based chopping block (edited)

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:35 PM

Lung's down. Gamer grabbed the others and went into an IB.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:35 PM

I don't remember any totems like that, sounds like something he'd have to invent

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:39 PM

There aren't, yeah.

Totems are very low-tier, relatively speaking.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:40 PM

if we ever wanna figure out what's up with gamer, we'll wanna figure out a way to manage that, so thats something for the checklist

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:40 PM

Yeah.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 05:42 PM

Did we ever figure out if there's a Minecraft Overworld, or whether the various Earths count as the Overworld?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:42 PM

pretty sure the various earths count as the overworld

i mean austin can search but

thats a reasonable assumption

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:43 PM

Given that 'Minecraft: Overworld' didn't turn up anything, I think the overworld is just all the Earths.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:50 PM

anyways

still have lung to deal with

mostly the cleanup from this battle

Austin Given that 'Minecraft: Overworld' didn't turn up anything, I think the overworld is just all the Earths.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 05:51 PM

That's unfortunate. If you get Thaumcraft it's some work to get vis crystals without mining and you need a few to get started at all. Unless physics being more real lets you skip around that somehow.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:52 PM

austin has no thaumcraft and may not get it for a while, so

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 05:52 PM

Shit, you're right, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:53 PM

it will be a real fuck to try and get em

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 05:53 PM

Yeah, but there are a few mods where it's hard to get resources if you don't have the overworld

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:53 PM

still, that's very much a 'we burn that bridge when we reach it' problem

we cant do anything because austin knows nothing of thaumcraft

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 05:54 PM

True. Maybe Ex nihilo will have crystals pop up if he gets thaumcraft Or if he gets mystcraft or RFTools the problem is solved too.

Stoneblock 2 has you get vis crystals by sieving apparently

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:56 PM

oh yeah

and this pack was based on stoneforge initially

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 05:56 PM

So we can hope that happens here

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:56 PM

...hey actually, if that can happen, it will happen with enough sieving

eventually

is there a way to make an autosiever

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 05:57 PM

Yeah that's in the mod at least

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 05:57 PM

cause like. all physics were changed to reflect the endstate of austin's mods i think

so if you have some reason for bringing up vis crystals, lets hear it

now's the time

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 05:59 PM

I looked in the old spreadsheet and the autosiev is part of Ex Compressum rather than ex nihilo @Forge was Ex Compressum folded under ex nihilo or is it still in the mods list?

Also. Ahhhhh. What if we roll Draconic Evolution? The high tiered stuff in that mod takes dragon hearts, and I don't think we want to kill the ender dragon now that we know it's an actual person.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:02 PM

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 06:03 PM

Alright. So Austin can't make an autosieve right now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:03 PM

even if its just piping sand into a siever via buildcraft

and just like. using some small pistons to shake the thing around

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 06:04 PM

I can do some parts of it automatically, by hooking sieves up to a water wheel.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 06:04 PM

What parts can you not do automatically?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:05 PM

id just like to mention that this is going to get us a lot of useless items that will make storage an issue

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 06:05 PM

It'll be fiiine, we have whole uninhabited worlds, we can dump stuff there.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:06 PM

that is. mm.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 06:06 PM

I can pipe in the stuff to sieve with pipes, and I can hook the sieves up to a water wheel to make them sieve automatically, but I don't have a way to pick the stuff up out of the sieves.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:06 PM

do you remember the last time an item just got dumped in the middle of fuck-all nowhere?

that resulted in the whole defiant situation, which, while good, highlights the danger in the logic of 'oh its an empty world its probably fine'

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 06:07 PM

Now I wish we had storage drawers, a wall of those are great to have when you're sifting.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 06:07 PM

oh yeah, point

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 06:08 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:08 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:09 PM

where do we put all this stuff? a warehouse full of 10000 chests?

we would need security on that shit that can stand up to people like gamer and steelheart

Malaki 23-Jan-21 06:10 PM

For now? Yes, dont have any storage mods

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:10 PM

this seems like a risky play when we dont have any good security measures to stop it from getting looted

so far we dont have much in the way of esoteric materials, so theres no real reason to go after us

Malaki 23-Jan-21 06:11 PM

Vanilla enderchests with shulker boxes in it

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:11 PM

however, if we change that with sieving, we'd need to store the stuff somewhere secure and large enough that can't be reached by typical extradimensional powers (edited)

we dont have access to the end

Malaki 23-Jan-21 06:12 PM

Honestly minecraft storage methods arent secure

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 06:12 PM

It's an alright point I guess. But I think it would be somewhat secure if you went and stored them in one of the unnamed random number earths. No way for Gamer to guess it.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 06:15 PM

Except, Gamer seems to be able to copy powers to other people, somehow, if Upgrade and Chargeburst really do have copied powers.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 06:16 PM

I mean, she might figure it out by cold reading if you're locked in a room with her and she starts asking about it, but she can't just information from nothing.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 06:16 PM

we don't, really - not yet at least.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 06:17 PM

i still think doing as much of it in the nether as possible would be best

preferably with the portal up in like canada

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 06:27 PM

Uhh. In vanilla minecraft the nether maps to the overworld at 1:8. But the Nether maps real weirdly here. For one thing it can go to both Earth Bet and the Firmament. If the Nether is still flat, what algorithm determines what portal maps to what location or dimension?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:27 PM

could also maybe find some geographical features earth gimel doesnt have in common with earth bet

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 06:27 PM

So I think easy Nether travel might be out.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:28 PM

lets not rule it out based on a guess

Malaki 23-Jan-21 06:28 PM

It's prolly some fucked up nth dimensional bs, or it connected to the firmament cause it was a eden shard and thus close to death

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 06:29 PM

We can't completely rule it out, but we can definitely rule out it working the same as in vanilla

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:29 PM

we barely have any data on it - it could be it primarily connects to the 'overworld' the maker left, and the firmament could be one (edited)

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 06:30 PM

Hmm. Austin has to carve obsidian to make portals, right? Maybe he's just using a default portal that connects like you said, and there's ways to get them to open to other worlds.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:31 PM

...oh my god, that has so many implications. and i love it

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 06:46 PM

As far as I can tell, the frame material and ignition method determine the dimension.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:47 PM

...hey austin

can you copy what you do with obsidian but like

with glowstone

and dump a water bucket on it

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 06:47 PM

When you take a new portal for the first time, it generates a twinned portal on the other side, directly linked to it.

I think the carvings are different for each portal, but I can try?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:48 PM

its worth a shot, you might be able to enter the aether early that way

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 06:48 PM

Bear in mind that I'm going off the knowledge of exactly one portal.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:48 PM

could also potentially flip the carvings

...oh my god i just realized. glowstone breaks entropy TOO

infinite light oh my god

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 06:50 PM

Yeah, glowstone is magic, and magic tends to break entropy.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:51 PM

hey @[The Magicologist] want a glowstone sample, or do you already have the stuff?

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 06:51 PM

Man, your power really just says 'today we're fucking entropy right up the ass'.

[The Magicologist] BOT 23-Jan-21 06:51 PM

I would appreciate samples of everything you can give.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:52 PM

alright, next time you take a run through the nether, austin, can you swing by the firmament portal and drop some stuff off for them?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 06:54 PM

Milestone Achieved!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:54 PM

redstone, glowstone, some ender pearls, maybe some wireless redstone gear, etc

oh hell yea

Malaki 23-Jan-21 06:55 PM

Mhm

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 06:55 PM

I can do that. I can probably also deliver some crops and chickens, if you can take care of them?

[The Magicologist] BOT 23-Jan-21 06:55 PM

I can analyse them without bringing harm to them, if that will convince you to give me access to them.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 06:55 PM

Sounds good, then!

gotta love ourselves some jolly cooperation

might also be able to bring some aether materials depending on if this portal idea pans out

lets see what this milestone gets us tho

Forge BOT 23-Jan-21 06:57 PM

Minecraft: The End, Random Things, Farming for Blockheads.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 06:58 PM

Hey so speaking of portals,

End

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 06:58 PM

oh my god

Dubiously Motivated Pika 23-Jan-21 06:58 PM

(That. Was 100% luck. How.)

Malaki 23-Jan-21 06:58 PM

Need to save that ender dragon

Dubiously Motivated Pika 23-Jan-21 06:58 PM

(Not even that long after the enderman thing.)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:01 PM

yeah the end

like. random things has a lot of interesting stuff but the end lets you immediately go for another achievement

just make sure you bring enough supplies to get out

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 07:02 PM

Random Things has one of my favourite items, Time in a Bottle. It would let us speed up the chicken-breeding immensely.

Also, it has 'hoppers with range' for the sifting operation.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:03 PM

Or saving someone instead (edited)

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 07:03 PM

This is a hell of pair of mods to get.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:03 PM

Hold up

https://lumien.net/rtwiki/other/artificial-end-portal/

wait. it requires end stone

and end rods

...shit. is there any way to get those

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:04 PM

Which can be made with ex nihilo

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:05 PM

Yeah, I can get end stone from glowstone and lava, and I can get chorus fruit from sieving crushed end stone.

...But I don't know how to make end rods.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:05 PM

fuck

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:05 PM

...still get the end to save the ender dragon

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:06 PM

from the look of it, you stick a blaze rod in a popped chorus fruit

maybe go and try to do that if you can first? see if that's possible?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:07 PM

I'd give it a 50/50 chance of an end rod being that easy to make.

[The Magicologist] BOT 23-Jan-21 07:07 PM

I have been observing magic. If you can get me the resources, I could attempt to create an end rod.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:07 PM

ooh, that would be very helpful, thank you

[The Magicologist] BOT 23-Jan-21 07:08 PM

You are welcome.

This serves the collection of data very well.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:08 PM

Magic made Magicologist very creative

...do they have a soul now?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:09 PM

this would effectively be like getting two mods for the price of one if it works out, only leaving out practical knowledge of the end's creations (edited)

which is relatively minor compared to random things

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:10 PM

Thing is you need to go to the end for any of the draconium stuff

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 07:10 PM

Or use ex nihilo, tbf.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:10 PM

ye

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:11 PM

Cant get the dragon heart or save the enderpeoples queen

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:11 PM

artificial end portal malaki

if we can get this made, and the magicologist has good odds of making an end rod, we dont need minecraft: the end

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:11 PM

Is that in the random stuff mod?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:12 PM

i literally linked it

https://lumien.net/rtwiki/other/artificial-end-portal/

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:12 PM

If it allows for it then fine

[The Magicologist] BOT 23-Jan-21 07:14 PM

It will take time and resources to achieve, let it be known.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:14 PM

thats understandable, dw

trying to ex nihilo up enough endstone to get chorus fruit is gonna be tricky

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:15 PM

How much time and resources though? Hours? Days?

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:15 PM

Thnx m8, second favorite addition to this family

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:16 PM

I guess it always is with real experimentation...

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:19 PM

So, we're taking Random Things, then?

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 07:19 PM

Naaaaw, we're taking Farming for Blockheads.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:19 PM

random things seems the most promising, assuming we can crack end rods

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:21 PM

For all we know, they might need special ender runes carved into them or something.

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:21 PM

Random Things has a lot of... random things. Even without the end portal it has a lot of stuff that could be useful.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:21 PM

...actually wait

we're being dumb

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:21 PM

I guess the question here is whether the reward is worth the risk.

Oh?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:21 PM

the ex-enderman village can make em

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:21 PM

Oh!

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:21 PM

Derp.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:21 PM

I'll send Ennelwyn a DM.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:22 PM

dont forget to share the info to the magicologist, im sure they were excited abt this

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:22 PM

They don't have anyone there who can make end rods, but there were people who could make them.

They're mostly from outer villages with no mages.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:23 PM

so, it's not magic

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:23 PM

So we have to keep finding endermen until we find someone who can make them?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:23 PM

mostly anyways

...actually

you know that thing in the center of chorus fruit?

the lil bone-lookin bit?

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:23 PM

Yeah?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:24 PM

might be that the chorus fruit grows to the base of the rod and covers it in a similarly colored substance that lets the light shine through

in which case, bone meal!

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:25 PM

Oh! That's a thought.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:25 PM

...would make sense too if you think about it, cause pretty much everything in the end is made of the stuff if it aint endstone (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:26 PM

yeah

purpur blocks are just packed chorus fruit

packed popped chorus fruit, rather

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:27 PM

And the endbricks are endstone

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:28 PM

hell, if you look at end rods, they have a purple base

thatd prolly be a chorus fruit

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:29 PM

So it's gotta be some combo of the two if it isnt directly those two items by themselves

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:29 PM

endermen can make it to the nether so there is that

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:29 PM

How is this going to work in real physics? Eclipsed Clock Description An eclipsed clock allows you to change the time of day. After you hang it on a wall you can (shift) right click it to decrease and increase its target time. Hovering over it with a Time in a Bottle in your hand will display the time necessary to fast forward to the set time. Right clicking it with the Time in a Bottle will consume that amount of time from the bottle and set the time of day to that of the clock.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:30 PM

I... have no idea.

Not until we lock it in.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:31 PM

this is crazy

still, the 'stick a blaze rod in a chorus fruit and bonemeal that shit' makes enough sense given endermen can escape into the nether and blazes and skeletons exist in there (edited)

there is an achievement called free the end, if you wonder why i say escape (edited)

it implies most of em are stuck in there, with a select few scavving

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:34 PM

You get Free The End when you kill the Ender Dragon, right?

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:34 PM

Oh, random things also has has an item collector with a range. Yes you get free the end when you kill the dragon.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:35 PM

Yeah, which either means tyranical queen turned herself into a dragon

Or it's a mercy kill

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:35 PM

Are we even planning on killing the dragon

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:35 PM

Either way it's possible to find out with mob talker

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:35 PM

I thought we were mob talking

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:35 PM

no, we're planning on mob talkering yeah

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:36 PM

Depending on which she is, things could go very differently.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:36 PM

given she tried to give everyone immortality...

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:36 PM

My one problem is that the end portal back home only opens once you've killed the ender dragon.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:36 PM

thats why i say bring enough to make a way back

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:37 PM

Can you nether portal out?

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:37 PM

That's why you use waypoints

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:37 PM

Will it even work on the other side? And I don't think so?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:37 PM

the default portal only appears when you kill the ender dragon

if this works, you can just make your own

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:37 PM

If it wasn't 2AM here I'd start up my desktop and test whether artificial portals work to get out

Malaki 23-Jan-21 07:38 PM

Also if you fly out far enough from main island you get the end cities

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:38 PM

end rods ought to be relatively simple and yeah, artificial portal blocks do help with that as i recall

i can check right now

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 07:38 PM

So, final check, I'm locking in Random Things?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:39 PM

no, not yet

we absolutely need to make an end rod first before then

if at all possible

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:39 PM

How long can we keep a mod not locked in? Will it stop us from getting other mods or something?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:40 PM

if you lock it in now, end rods will probably turn out to be impossible to craft due to ~plot reasons~

which is really me saying your luck is shit

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:40 PM

Because we can get a rod from Magicologist or we can get one by eventually finding an enderman who can do it. Both of those might take a lot of time.

Forge BOT 23-Jan-21 07:40 PM

As long as a mod is not locked in, the milestone tracker will not be active, and new milestones won't occur.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:42 PM

...

actually

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:42 PM

So I don't think we want to wait for an end rod.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:42 PM

forge, does minecraft: the end allow for creation of minecraft end portals?

because those are typically uncraftable

Forge BOT 23-Jan-21 07:43 PM

It does, as a necessity.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:43 PM

if we didnt take minecraft: the end, would we be arbitrarily limited from the end?

assuming we could find another way in, like artificial end portals

randomperson44 23-Jan-21 07:44 PM

I mean. You could get to the end through RFTools or Mystcraft, both of those have modifiers that generate strongholds

Forge BOT 23-Jan-21 07:45 PM

You would not be limited from The End, but you would have no information on it at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 07:45 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:43 PM

austin, best advice i got as far as telling her what to do to get her to get the fucky logic out of her head is researching human society, maybe

for purposes of integrating into it

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 08:44 PM

Malaki 23-Jan-21 08:46 PM

Of course white diamond would want this shit

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 08:46 PM

She was basically born brainwashed.

Nora, could you undo this?

Malaki 23-Jan-21 08:46 PM

So glad austin is sexless

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 08:47 PM

Not without resetting her entire personality, essentially killing the her that's developed so far.

There would be continuity of consciousness, but would it be the same person?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:47 PM

can we get an ethics committee for lucky blocks?

Malaki 23-Jan-21 08:48 PM

Yeah elementals are less problematic somehow

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 08:48 PM

Continuity of consciousness? So it would just be the same person.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:48 PM

continuity of memories but death of personality

like if you got shot in the head and got severe brain damage, but were able to keep living

Malaki 23-Jan-21 08:48 PM

Essentially egodeath while the memories stay

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 08:48 PM

Isn't this more like reversing brain damage?

If I was in her position, I'd want ego death too.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 08:49 PM

There isnt a good analogy

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:49 PM

to be fair, doing it at all is kind of ethically fucked

its why panacea doesnt do brains

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 08:49 PM

Yeah, I think I understand her a lot more now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:50 PM

I mean, I could try? I'm not really great with people.

I could start healing though, yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:51 PM

yeah

could actually try to befriend her in your heroic persona

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 08:51 PM

Yeah, maybe!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:51 PM

you got some power-related issues that you share, mainly implications behind what the worst aspects could do

and doing your best to stay the Fuck away from that part of em

I mean it heals bad eyesight, without knowing how to do that shit

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:52 PM

point

Rei BOT 23-Jan-21 08:53 PM

So, do we try to undo Pearl's brainwashing via Nora or via long experience? She's meant to be immortal, it could take hundreds or thousands of years.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:54 PM

i mean, pearl from su seemed to just take a few years or so?

Malaki 23-Jan-21 08:54 PM

Long experience is the most ethical manner to do it

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 08:54 PM

Yeah, I agree on the long experience thing.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 08:55 PM

A few years of this cringy shit might just have me suggest some brainwashing

Nora BOT 23-Jan-21 08:55 PM

I don't want to poke around in her brain.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:55 PM

malaki, you have no ethics

im pretty sure your advice is gonna be discounted in that regard

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 08:55 PM

Well, if I'm actively trying to help her, then that'll probably help speed it up.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 08:55 PM

I do but if i cant remove a source of cringe in 1 year i forcibly remove it from my life

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:56 PM

malaki, are you a serial killer?

Malaki 23-Jan-21 08:56 PM

I plead the fifth

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:56 PM

please dont take advice from the serial killer guys

id much rather she be able to learn and grow as a person than going 'ah, yes, this is definitely right' or 'ah yes this is definitely wrong'

because that doesnt actually solve the problem

individuality is something you learn, not something you brainwash into someone

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 08:58 PM

Yeah, that makes sense.

And if one Pearl was able to do it, so can other Pearls.

Malaki 23-Jan-21 08:59 PM

Look if she has visible improvement before the end of the year it is fine

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 08:59 PM

so this isnt going to come up as a topic tomorrow, or in a week?

Malaki 23-Jan-21 08:59 PM

So glad u didnt summon say, a diamond

Hours, Minutes, Seconds so this isnt going to come up as a topic tomorrow, or in a week?

Malaki 23-Jan-21 08:59 PM

Oh def not

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 09:00 PM

these are max luck lucky blocks, of course it didnt summon a diamond

Well, that's two of five.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 09:01 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 23-Jan-21 10:14 PM

or have some of the wards do that

part of taylor's issue with the wards was she was scared of what happened in high school repeating with them

That would be filed under 'Public Relations PSAs'.

Austin BOT 23-Jan-21 10:15 PM

Colin BOT 24-Jan-21 11:56 AM

We've gotten some security footage of your recent fight with Gamer.

Including some audio.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:07 PM

Is that good?

Colin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:07 PM

It shows certain things Terraria and Dauntless hadn't noticed during the fight.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:08 PM

Oh? What did they miss?

Colin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:08 PM

First of all, Upgrade didn't seem to have any kind of inventory - he picked up random items and infused them with his power to turn them into tinkertech.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:09 PM

That definitely feels Dauntless-themed. A lot more than before.

Colin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:10 PM

By checking the timings, we can tell that Chargeburst spent approximately as long resting as they do fighting.

They'd attack Lung for thirty seconds, then spend thirty seconds resting.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:11 PM

I can see what you mean about the Dauntless thing, though.

Colin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:12 PM

Any of Upgrade's tech we recovered from the scene has since reverted back into normal items. They're still being kept under watch, however.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:14 PM

I mean, Chargeburst and Upgrade definitely don't have the exact same powers as Battery and Dauntless. But the similarities are too much for my liking after that super suspicious raid on the Rig where it appears they didn't gain any objective. I would guess either they managed to get a shard connection that has a somewhat altered power, like Echidna clones, or that they managed to make a skill-book that emulates their powers but isn't quite the same.

Rei BOT 24-Jan-21 12:15 PM

So we've pretty much confirmed Gamer is fucking around with shards. Great.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:16 PM

Well, if they made a skill-book, it might be more of a sponsor power that's emulating a shard power But yes this isn't good no matter which method it is.

Rei BOT 24-Jan-21 12:16 PM

Welp. That ain't good.

Colin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:17 PM

The order in which Upgrade's tech reverted was about the same order it was converted in, which is interesting.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:18 PM

I guess they last about a set amount of time and then revert. And they almost certainly can't get stacking boosts or they wouldn't have kept grabbing random items instead of making a few more powerful items.

Colin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:19 PM

That would make sense, yes.

The final interesting thing is that Gamer was heard talking about 'The Q'.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:24 PM

I'm not aware of any entity in the Gamer comic that's referred to by that name, nor of any that even start with that letter.

Colin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:25 PM

The context we had is that he didn't want to take Leet out of The Q just yet.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:29 PM

Weren't both Uber and Leet actively fighting at the time? How could Leet be in the Q? Unless The Q is something more abstract. A state of mind, or something. Or I guess that Leet could have been a clone or something.

Colin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:30 PM

Uber and Leet were releasing zombies around the city together.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:30 PM

So The Q probably isn't a place then. Or a machine.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:30 PM

That's why we couldn't get backup.

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 12:31 PM

So if it's not a physical location, then what is it?

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:32 PM

I have no idea. I hate working against Leet, he can just pull random tech out of his ass. Even worse combined with Gamer.

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 12:33 PM

And for all we know, Gamer's been able to power him up somehow.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:36 PM

At the very least Gamer has managed to get him to stop holding back. But I'd assume he got powered up somehow yeah, or at least synergizes with Gamer well. If he could tinker with powers before I don't think Uber and Leet would have been shitty joke villains. Maybe very high profile joke villains.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:37 PM

So the power-fuckery seems to be from Gamer's end, then.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:39 PM

No idea. Could be a combined effort. Perhaps getting a large amount of data on someone's power is good enough to count as a skill-book on it's own; in the comic Jihan can use basically any book that describes some supernatural technique as a skill-book. Maybe if you compile a bunch of power scans and data onto a flash drive it's enough to count.

I just don't know how well The Gamer incorporates shard powers into the system. In the comic, it does sometimes incorporate external powers as part of the Gamer system. That happened when Jihan was messing around with space spells, it integrated his pocket dimension into his inventory. So if it is skillbooks, don't know whether or not it would include the full shard connection, or just give a Gamer type skill that acts somewhat like the power.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:53 PM

Forge seemed to have trouble with shard-based things, and was asking for shard-data earlier.

So I'm not sure how well Gamer's power would incorporate shard-based stuff.

Which is weird as hell, because that's what he's doing.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:54 PM

Maybe Gaia has more experience with shards?

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:55 PM

Good point. Forge?

Forge BOT 24-Jan-21 12:55 PM

Data-gathering on shards is a collaborative project, and one of the end goals of the game.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:55 PM

...Fuck.

So, wait, the more shard-data we get you, the more Gamer might be able to mess with shard-based stuff?

Forge BOT 24-Jan-21 12:56 PM

If that is his goal, yes.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:56 PM

Dammit.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:57 PM

That's unfortunate for us. (edited)

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 12:57 PM

Actually, I just realised. Unless the Drain Life book was in a language Gamer knows, then he could probably absorb 'skill books' in any language he likes.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 12:57 PM

Course, the same applies in reverse

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 12:57 PM

So the 'shard scans to skill books' idea holds water.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 12:57 PM

Oh, good point.

Rei BOT 24-Jan-21 12:58 PM

The more shard data he gets, the closer we come to waifu-ing the Endbringers.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 01:02 PM

Hey remember a while ago when Gaia let it slip that her sponsored's name was Jacob? Why'd he show up as Andre Vasil on the metanav if he doesn't think of that as his real name?

I guess gaia could have just been throwing out a random name.

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 01:03 PM

It could be a situation like mine?

I just go by Nora all the time now, but it wasn't my real name before or anything.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 01:04 PM

Insert into coma body you mean?

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 01:04 PM

Yeah.

Maybe Jacob was inserted into Andre Vasil, but still thinks of himself as Jacob.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 01:06 PM

Could be. Whatever it is, Jacob doesn't sound like the kind of name that knows magic juju skill-book language, so it supports the 'can use any language skillbook he wants' theory

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 01:08 PM

Yeah. If his real name had been 'Antioch' or 'Thadimus the Grand' or something, I could see him knowing more fantastical languages, but just 'Jacob' implies he's from a standard Earth.

Rei BOT 24-Jan-21 01:08 PM

By the way, 'The Q' didn't work in the metanav. Thought I might say.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 01:08 PM

Honestly if his name was 'Thadimus the Grand' I would be kind of intimidated

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 01:09 PM

It would mean he did something to earn that title.

Rei BOT 24-Jan-21 01:09 PM

Or maybe he would've been some jumped-up delusional guy with a god complex.

I mean, no saying he isn't, but that would be a possibility.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 01:11 PM

Someone with a god-complex thinks they're more powerful than they are. Gamer seems perfectly aware that they aren't that powerful and is minmaxing and exploiting at top speed to become so.

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 01:11 PM

Which makes him a lot more dangerous.

At least a psycho would be illogical.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 01:14 PM

You think Gamer's going to show up with someone with a variant of Lung's power next?

They were fighting him for some reason...

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 01:14 PM

Well, if he does, at least we'll have confirmation on what he's doing.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 01:15 PM

While that's true, you'd also be going against someone with a variant of Lung's power.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 01:16 PM

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 03:19 PM

I keep it at max zoomed out usually.

aiming low to force her to jump might work to prevent her dodging

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 03:20 PM

I think she predicts when people pull the trigger. The difference between 'bullet speed' and 'instant' isn't very big.

Well, thanks to minimap, we can get the drop on her if we like.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 03:20 PM

it might be hard for her to dodge, regardless - it depends on the position of your eyes to the tip of the gun yeah?

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 03:21 PM

Yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 03:21 PM

if you aim for the back of her foot you could hamstring her, preventing her from dodging

Shoulda programmed a small AOE damage spell maybe

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 03:21 PM

Oh, that's a good point, I could catch her off guard with that.

Yeah. AOE is pretty mana-intensive and I was worried about collateral, so I didn't. I probably should.

There. “We’re attacking,” I said, and I spoke through the bugs that were near each of my allies. “Be ready .” The bugs I’d kept in reserve swept into the building, not from the direction our forces were standing, but from the opposite direction. They flowed in, swarming over the Teeth. Less useful bugs plunged themselves into the food. They scattered money, where money was left out in the open, caught unattended weapons and pieces of armor and either buried them or started to drag them from sight. “No!” Hemorrhagia shouted, trying to cover her chili with a lid, “No, no, fuck you, no!”

I can neither confirm nor deny whether you have a 'danger magnet'.

thats legalese for 'yeah basically'

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:26 PM

Fuck.

I guess their 'game' wouldn't be as interesting if I wasn't a danger magnet, huh.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:26 PM

probably, yeah

so what, would this be qualified as like master/stranger -2

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 04:27 PM

Nah.

Shaker maybe.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:27 PM

MM says it would be a shaker power, yeah.

(Fun fact about the C53 racism thing, in the original fic idea, Austin was going to be temporarily kidnapped by the E88, and they'd say they were 'white-passing enough'.)

Dubiously Motivated Pika 24-Jan-21 04:29 PM

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 04:29 PM

(that's so terrible)

Dubiously Motivated Pika 24-Jan-21 04:30 PM

(New trigger was also mega-crushing on Oni Lee, which would've been how Austin would have an in to heal him.)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:30 PM

(wow)

Michael BOT 24-Jan-21 04:31 PM

(I didn't know he was Oni Lee, to be fair. He was just a weird quiet guy named Li that I kept helping despite my dickweed family.)

Dubiously Motivated Pika 24-Jan-21 04:32 PM

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:33 PM

Well, guess who has free time again?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:34 PM

that would be: youuu

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:34 PM

I could technically go on hero work in my free time too, for the record.

But I could also tinker, or work on the village.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:34 PM

true

honestly i feel like we've been pushing you towards the tinker thing a lot lately

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:35 PM

And I've been getting a lot out of it, to be fair.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:35 PM

hm. if you have the endstone and obsidian, id recommend getting most of an artificial end portal set up, then maybe just checking in with your co-workers

socializing some, ykno?

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:36 PM

Yeah, I can do some setup for that. Make the base part of it and stuff.

I'd need to hunt wither skeletons for a wither skill for the evil tear, but otherwise, not much setup.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:36 PM

dalet earth seems like the place where we do all the portal stuff, so. over there somewhere?

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 04:37 PM

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:40 PM

Portal is set up, who should I hang out with?

Pretty much everyone is on base at the moment.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:41 PM

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:45 PM

Oh, I will.

Nah. Even normal people can just buy pure capsaicin you know

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:49 PM

I have Minecraft milk on hand just in case, that can heal anything that isn't an actual wound.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:54 PM

oh my god

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:55 PM

I mean, Minecraft milk is just normal milk in a bucket, it's not hard to make.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:55 PM

...can you put milk in a bottle for minecraft milk

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:55 PM

Only a potion bottle, but yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:55 PM

when it works it works

easier to carry around like that

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:56 PM

Yeah, good point.

Bottles and buckets take up the same inventory space, so I just used a bucket.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:56 PM

...infinite milk source like infinite water source

Doesn't work, sadly.

Cryothium cows gotta be cold af

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:58 PM

i wonder if you can set up an impromptu chili eating competition

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:58 PM

I can make a cow in a jar. The cow is perfectly happy, and it just fills the jar up with milk.

Malaki 24-Jan-21 04:58 PM

Oh hows your Pear

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 04:58 PM

good point malaki

oh no

...if you win you might get a milestone

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 04:59 PM

Pearl's doing okay. I left her with the villagers.

thats a relief

heres hoping their society had psychologists

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 05:01 PM

Okay, the chili is ready, and Assault's dragged everyone over. I'd hope so.

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:01 PM

Here's hoping any of them are psychologists

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 05:02 PM

None of them there are psychologists, but I'll be trying to find more endermen too.

I got the stuff over to TM, but nothing yet.

[The Magicologist] BOT 24-Jan-21 05:03 PM

Popped chorus fruit are dead, so I am trying multiple things.

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:04 PM

Need a live sample of chorus plants?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:04 PM

from what little i know of minecraft crafting, it'll have to be popped prior to crafting, not like. popping it while the blaze rod is attached or anything

live chorus might help yeah

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 05:05 PM

I gave both popped and un-popped fruit to TM, but the recipe uses popped.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:05 PM

ah, nice

[The Magicologist] BOT 24-Jan-21 05:05 PM

Among other things, I am attempting to cultivate chorus fruit.

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:05 PM

Any luck there?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:06 PM

they do require endstone to grow

[The Magicologist] BOT 24-Jan-21 05:06 PM

Yes. They are growing well.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 05:06 PM

I delivered end stone too, don't worry.

many samples of many things, nice

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 05:07 PM

Yeah, samples of pretty much anything I had on hand.

I also have a sync pod there.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:07 PM

ooh, interesting

that might lead to some weird effects

i mean maybe not but

its a thought

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 05:08 PM

what happens if you try to make a Shard sync body

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:08 PM

insufficient shard data id assume

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:08 PM

Not enough biomass in the container

[The Magicologist] BOT 24-Jan-21 05:08 PM

I am accounting for multiple different host bodies. You could attempt to make me a sync body.

I will send a second flesh sample for your use.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:09 PM

worth a shot i suppose

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 05:09 PM

Thanks. I'll try It when I get back.

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:09 PM

Magicologist can studdy the Staff of Aspect

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 05:09 PM

Oh yeah, good idea.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:10 PM

actually hey, couldnt rei swing by and pop the shardflesh in the sync machine?

that is a really good idea actually yeah

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:10 PM

Someone prolly needs to watch over it

Rei BOT 24-Jan-21 05:10 PM

On it

:point_right:

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:15 PM

this is gonna be interesting, i can feel it

actually, yall may wanna move a shell constructor over to the magicologist for this (edited)

shards are Big

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:19 PM

Very much so

Rei BOT 24-Jan-21 05:21 PM

Yeah, good idea. I'll bring some spare sync stuff for them.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:22 PM

actually, hey, something occurs to me

you could theoretically use this to just break entropy indefinitely

Rei BOT 24-Jan-21 05:22 PM

That and half the shit they can make.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:23 PM

true, but this seems like a quick way to bootstrap to both infinite mass and energy

if you find a way to break the former down so you dont collapse under your own gravitational forces, infinite energy is awesome

[The Magicologist] BOT 24-Jan-21 05:24 PM

After observing different entropy-breaking methods, I've decided that using a sink and a water-to-energy function is the most efficient method of breaking entropy.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:25 PM

probably

austin can prolly install one if you wanna do that

[The Magicologist] BOT 24-Jan-21 05:25 PM

They already have.

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:25 PM

I mean at that point efficiency is just a time thing

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:25 PM

oh

nice

[The Magicologist] BOT 24-Jan-21 05:25 PM

They brought one of each of their machines, including a sink.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:26 PM

ah. yeah fair enough

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:46 PM

Her shard prolly aint happy

Malaki Well, you can teach the child how to slaughter the zoglins (edited)

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 05:46 PM

Malaki has to keep up his reputation, but now we all know he has a heart inside

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:46 PM

But fuckem

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:47 PM

to be fair, her shard's probably liable to get a lot more data in the long run now

before this she was probably more fire and forget to see what happens

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:48 PM

Yeah, but it's goal seemed to be to slam on the conflict button till she killed herself

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:49 PM

point

not like we can do much about that

so there's no point in jinxing it

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:49 PM

So you know, fuck em cause their original plan sucked

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 05:50 PM

She seems to be doing a lot better now, let's hope her shard lets her stay that way.

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:50 PM

Signs point to not for long

Or...well not for long if she doesnt see action regularly

[The Magicologist] BOT 24-Jan-21 05:51 PM

Dimensional Shift likely values the data to be gathered from the unforseen change in personality. That is rarer and more valuable than conflict data.

It is likely the same with Decoy and Efficiency Database.

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:51 PM

See i'd trust that if the average shard wasnt fucken dumb

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 05:51 PM

malaki

you're being a dick

you're getting info from the horse's mouth and you go 'nah thats probably fake as hell, fuck off'

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:52 PM

Yeah that sums it up

[The Magicologist] BOT 24-Jan-21 05:52 PM

Shards value data above all else. There are other shards to collect conflict data, but very, very few in a position to observe stolen-treasure data.

Yup they do

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:58 PM

Also i wasnt talking about ghasts i was talking about blazes

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 05:58 PM

We can light up the spawners so they stop spawning stuff.

Malaki 24-Jan-21 05:59 PM

It's prolly cause they are nearly 100% carbonized bone being held up by magic

Or you can break it to get a broken spawner

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 05:59 PM

Oh, that too.

Actually, that's more useful than just leaving them.

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 06:00 PM

Surviving With Ender IO :: E11 - Powered Spawner

Today I set up the powered spawner to spawn witches. The powered spawner allows you to target a specific mob to spawn (when you are crafting it) and requires power. =================================== This series is based around the mod Ender IO in 1.10.2, which is a typical tech mod that offers ore processing, item/power/fluid transportation ...

Well which is faster

Probably the alloy smelter, if I'm being honest. We're a ways out from soularium chickens.

so are personas and persona users

and people and their shadows

No i mean like they are seperate intities like demons are in smt

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 06:56 PM

In the series, he is given a prominent plot role, known as The Crawling Chaos, as the counterbalance to Philemon in the Persona series. Unlike Philemon, Nyarlathotep is able to operate in the outside world and take an active role. Throughout the series he employs the use of Shadow Selves of characters to accomplish his goals.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 06:57 PM

this argument is kinda pointless if they're seperate entities then faux-Philemon wouldn't let them form. If they aren't seperate entities then it still isn't here because we don't have real philemon.

nyarly isnt real he cant hurt you malaki

lol

The Crawling Chaos can always find a way to drive man and monster alike to madness

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 06:59 PM

Nyarlathotep is the main antagonist of the Persona 2 duology. An extremely manipulative, charismatic and cruel entity born from the human consciousness, he and Philemon are acting on a bet to see if humanity will become enlightened or ultimately destroy itself.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 06:59 PM

you might have to point blank tell malaki nyx is nothing to worry about but this is good reassurance

Philemon BOT 24-Jan-21 07:05 PM

As long as the game continues, 'bosses' and 'big bads' cannot generate naturally. In fact, many things can't.

So yes, Nyx will not be an issue, or indeed exist, in this game.

Yes.

nobody else ought to be able to get terraria due to austin having some limited terraria powers already

Woo. I managed to confirm that the sponsored isn't terraria without Forge locking us out of that info!

Forge BOT 24-Jan-21 07:10 PM

Well played.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 07:10 PM

Does having like 5 terraria items really count as being terraria sourced tho

Forge BOT 24-Jan-21 07:10 PM

When I say that the mod was mentioned in the past, it could've been mentioned a single time, or discussed at length.

Terraria Craft includes other Terraria items and physics.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 07:11 PM

Oh yeah I know that. We were talking about Random Things having a few terraria inpired items in it

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 07:14 PM

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 07:23 PM

Terraria: To be fair, I've been doing pretty well against the local villains. The ABB are destroyed, and I've helped to arrest two Empire capes.

Terraria: The main problem here is that another sponsorship, Gamer, is also here and fucking with things. We think he's trying to mess with shards and copy powers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 07:24 PM

hes on the persona chopping block

so as to prevent scion getting ganked right off the bat (edited)

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 07:50 PM

Steelheart isn't as OP as the others are, at least long term. There are a fair number of city-scale Epics but none that go farther than that (edited)

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 08:11 PM

I'm going to go out and say that pokedex entries are NOT accurate, before anyone asks.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:11 PM

Does pokemon exist in earth bet

Malaki 24-Jan-21 08:11 PM

Ditto for the breeding of the ivs

Time for unethical breeding practices

Arceus BOT 24-Jan-21 08:12 PM

Pokemon currently do not exist in any world in this multiverse. We gave Ashley the power to make Pokemon instead.

Austin I'm going to go out and say that pokedex entries are NOT accurate, before anyone asks.

Worm is too long and too grimdark for me, sorry.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:14 PM

a valid point

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 08:14 PM

I object to the 'grimdark' bit, but okay.

It's dark, but not grimdark, I think.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:15 PM

Malaki 24-Jan-21 08:15 PM

Literally so many S-class threats that are never handled

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 08:16 PM

It's more like Neutraldark. There's still good people around, and people who are able to help.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:16 PM

Okay. It's not quite grimdark, they did technically win in the end even if the protagonist died. But then the sequel opened up with all the shards going on a rampage and making titans so that doesn't count

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:16 PM

Well, if you guys have read it, then it's fine, right?

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:17 PM

Yeah probably

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:17 PM

should probably get you caught up on the Lore

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:17 PM

Mr Case 53 hasn't read it, has he?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:17 PM

otherwise you'll just assume a bunch of crap fanon and get screwed over by it

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 08:17 PM

No, but I've gotten the gist.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:17 PM

Nope. Neither has Rei.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:17 PM

noras been informing everyone, she has copies of worm and ward

Rei BOT 24-Jan-21 08:18 PM

I hadn't even heard of it. I thought I was just dropped in a generic superhero world.

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 08:18 PM

Yeah, if you ever do want to read Worm and Ward, I have the ebooks.

Also a couple of interludes downloaded from the Worm Audiobook Project.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:18 PM

I am not typing out all the dangerous differences between fanon and canon here, that would take hours. Nora can educate you.

Rei BOT 24-Jan-21 08:19 PM

Worm Audiobook Project is the only WAP you want, huh?

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 08:19 PM

Yeah, if you get something confused, I'll step in.

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:19 PM

Sure, thanks.

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 08:23 PM

So, to sum up, the other sponsorships are: - Gamer aka Jacob aka Andre Vasil. The Gamer. Villain, teamed up with U&L. Also has minions with copied powers. - Joker aka Rei Amamiya. Persona, specifically Persona 5. Vigilante, but on our side. - Diamond aka Nora DeMayo aka me. Steven Universe. Ward. - Terraria aka Austin Way. Minecraft + Mods. Case 53, Protectorate. - Steelheart, no real name known. The Reckoners. Villain, took over Chicago.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:23 PM

So. Wards, Persona 5 team, or stay at random base that Austin makes? You're still homeless atm. (edited)

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:25 PM

The Protectorate is pretty corrupt, so I vote P5 team. P5 was a cool anime.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:25 PM

wait i thought it was a video game...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:25 PM

to be fair, protectorate corruption is usually due to either moles or the highest ranks - the bb protectorate's pretty good

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:26 PM

we haven't dealt with coil yet, so that's not quite true

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:26 PM

true

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:26 PM

I'm kidding, I'm kidding, the anime adaptation is shit.

Still, you said the Wards would be a problem, right?

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:26 PM

Maybe? Shadow Stalker might wanna transfer out anyway so maybe not.

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:26 PM

'Sides, I'm going to be making self-reproducing creatures, and Piggy's a cunt.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 08:26 PM

Hey, she's not that bad!

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:26 PM

Oh yeah that would be a problem

She's not that bad but I think self-replicating biotinker might be a bit of a trigger button (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:27 PM

piggot does have ptsd from ellisburg yeah

she can def control herself, tho - otherwise she wouldn't have gotten her position

you're in a real world, not a caricature of one, remember

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:28 PM

Oh. Right.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:29 PM

Well, yes. Control herself from actively working against Ashley. But she'd definitely be implicitly biased against her, which is still a problem. Wouldn't make working in the Wards impossible or anything, but it's a point to consider.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:29 PM

yea

just want to burst the fanon bubbles where i can

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:31 PM

Yeah, if I'm going to be thinking this stuff about people, then I probably shouldn't be around the ones I 'know' about.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:32 PM

probably

still, we should probably let legend know the good news, since we havent done that yet already

hes in here too

not sure what fanon opinions you've picked up about him, but hes a good dude

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:33 PM

No yeah, that's what I got on him.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:34 PM

nice

@Legend so, new sponsored has arrived, they're heroic (edited)

just thought itd help set your mind at ease to know

Legend BOT 24-Jan-21 08:34 PM

I see. That's a relief. Another Steelheart would've been a nightmare.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:34 PM

god yeah

i hope youre doin ok man

you and hero

Legend BOT 24-Jan-21 08:35 PM

Yeah. He's staying at me and Arthur's place for now.

I'm helping to get his gear set up again for when he re-debuts.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:36 PM

awesome

thats gonna be a good day, im damn certain of that

Legend BOT 24-Jan-21 08:37 PM

It'll bring back a lot of the hope that was lost when he passed, certainly.

Actually, could you bring him in here? I'd like for him to have the extra security.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:38 PM

sounds good to me

austin?

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 08:39 PM

Legend BOT 24-Jan-21 08:40 PM

Yeah, this is it.

Hero BOT 24-Jan-21 08:40 PM

Thanks, good to be here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:40 PM

well i guess itd be more 'thinker/trump' since you get bonus powers on top of it

but that just doesnt roll nearly as well

lol

Hero BOT 24-Jan-21 08:41 PM

Legend said that you know a lot of stuff, but it's not always accurate.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 08:41 PM

Yeah, not always, but mostly.

And that's all I'm saying on the matter.

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 08:41 PM

^

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:42 PM

yeah its. we know a lot of upsetting stuff, so lets maybe stay away from that particular subject if youre wantin this to be Super Casual or anything

id imagine legend's filled you into most of what we've said on here anyways, and if not nora can

Hero BOT 24-Jan-21 08:43 PM

Yeah, he's showed me a list of info he got from Terraria.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:43 PM

ah, nice

so yeah, welcome to the party, we can probably send yall some chili if youre interested austin's made a lot recently, enjoy the bonus superpowers and info

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 08:45 PM

Only if you like spicy food, though.

Hero BOT 24-Jan-21 08:45 PM

Yeah, I do, don't worry.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:45 PM

ah no not that chili don't kill hero right after resurrection

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:45 PM

lil tact random, please

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:45 PM

aww okay

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 08:46 PM

I only have the least spicy one left, dw. The max-spicy was all eaten, and Nora has the last of the extra-spicy.

Well, this one would still be rated 'Hot' on a mild-medium-hot scale, but it's not like it's one of the ones that would be actively dangerous if not for the healing effects it has.

Hero BOT 24-Jan-21 08:47 PM

You can make healing food?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:47 PM

austin can make a lot of healing things

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 08:48 PM

I'll send you a document of all my powers.

i mean if you include farming iron and diamonds as farming (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:48 PM

chicken farming, random

its still farming

it all ties back to farming

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 08:48 PM

Yeah, I have chickens that lay different types of resources.

It's all kinda strange.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:49 PM

austin's also kind of a master chef due to powers shenanigans

so

you're probably gonna enjoy it

Hero BOT 24-Jan-21 08:49 PM

That's a new one.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:50 PM

Yeah none of the people who are sponsored have normal powers

Hero BOT 24-Jan-21 08:50 PM

I think Eidolon had a similar power, but that one was for disguising poison in food. He just used it to cook, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:50 PM

i. wow, thats hilarious

Hero BOT 24-Jan-21 08:50 PM

Oh, I've read the stuff Legend sent me about the situation.

I guess with superpowers existing, superpowers based on fiction isn't a huge leap to make.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:51 PM

yeah, thats fair

im just hoping lawsuits dont come in

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 08:52 PM

Well, Ashley is the only one here with powers based on fiction that actually exists here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:52 PM

with the whole kyushu thing

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 08:52 PM

Yeah, it does.

They moved to America, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:53 PM

makes sense, still worrying

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 08:53 PM

They're still making Pokemon games and everything.

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:53 PM

Ah fuck.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:53 PM

please tell me theyre at least more creative than 'ice cream pokemon'

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:53 PM

Hopefully the later Pokemon diverge from your own set

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:53 PM

or different from 2020 pokemon at all yeah

Nora BOT 24-Jan-21 08:53 PM

They have a pokemon based on a window. It's not great.

...actually

you could get sponsored by them, maybe?

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:57 PM

Yeah, I'm the one who can make actual Pokemon, I could just tell them to piss off. Do they take sponsored heroes?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:57 PM

i know corporate teams are a thing

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:57 PM

Also, I can't make Pokemon unable to reproduce at all, so that's a thing.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:57 PM

I feel like letting a corporation dicatate your moves might be even worse than letting the government do it

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:57 PM

ah. thats a big Fuck

Fuck capitalism, yeah.

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:58 PM

Even genderless pokemon?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 08:58 PM

yeah might be best if you stay indie

we've been using earth dalet as a place where we make projects on the down-low, so there might work?

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:58 PM

Maybe you should just do the pokemon on another earth, then bring over limited numbers to Bet

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 08:58 PM

I mean, how do you think genderless Pokemon even came to be in the first place? They didn't just pop into existance.

Existence*

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 08:59 PM

I have no idea. Ghosts possessed stuff and it became pokemon? That seems to be strangely popular.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:00 PM

at least several were artificially created

randomperson44 24-Jan-21 09:00 PM

Bulbapedia says they can't breed with anything but Ditto. I guess maybe it's different with real world physics.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:05 PM

Sure, I've made some beds here instead of just grabbing the one from my room whenever I have someone over.

Yeah, Dalet or another Earth might be a better bet.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:05 PM

dalet's probably the best place for em yeah

let me check for some evac earths

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:06 PM

Well, it might be better to have the portals and the Pokemon on different Earths, so yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:06 PM

Earth He is an alternate Earth used to evacuate Western Europe and Northern Africa minus the English speakers.

Earth Mem Another world colonised from Bet, which had sporadic contact with Gimel.US and was considered safe.[59] Likely the home to another specifically American colony.

Earth Nun Earth N began being colonised shortly after Gold Morning. A lot of raw materials were taken from Earth N and used to help build the City in Earth Gimel.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:08 PM

He sounds good. I'll set up a base there for Ashley to use.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:09 PM

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:15 PM

Yeah...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:15 PM

empathy from shared trauma is not uncommon

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:15 PM

That makes sense.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:15 PM

ye

some part of me wonders if we can make drones to direct endermen to the village where they can be mob talker'd

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:16 PM

Huh, that's an idea.

I was thinking of outfitting some of the villagers with enough equipment that they can go to the nether safely and having them do it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:17 PM

thats a good idea

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:17 PM

They know the right languages, after all.

And a drone might be distressing to a little kid.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:17 PM

point

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:17 PM

Better to use people, since they can respond to different situations dynamically.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:17 PM

yee

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:18 PM

Well, the base is done and it's still 3 in the morning. I might start making that equipment, then.

Oh?

ah good

i just had a worry about them getting stuck in the end or something

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:19 PM

God, that would be awful.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:20 PM

no kidding, sounds like a nightmare overall

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:21 PM

Well, I made a bunch of basic iron gear and water canisters and CADs for the nether.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:21 PM

maybe something that can hide their eyes?

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:21 PM

Also potions, since they quench thirst and don't evaporate.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:21 PM

if i recall, endermen flip out when looked at

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:22 PM

The armour covers their faces, but there's a pumpkin farm there if they need it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 09:22 PM

thats an idea, yea

no worries then

Colin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:22 PM

I hadn't realised you could make potions.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:22 PM

Yeah, I just made a brewing stand today.

idea: chorus fruit breakfast

and getting endermail set up

...you should probably stick a sign or two on the firmament portal so the ex-endermen dont wander in, so getting endermail set up if it aint already is a good idea

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:37 PM

Oh yeah, the endermail is a good idea.

I've already blocked off the Firmament portal, but I'll put signs on the outside too, in case any of the villagers tries to teleport in.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 09:39 PM

He was described to have a narrow face, smooth black hair and goatee, and he is wearing a trench coat. He also wears glasses because he is nearsighted. In "Firefight", he had bandages on his chest due to him allowing Regalia to take a tissue sample to create Motivators. He also carries a sword and a rifle.

Austin BOT 24-Jan-21 10:41 PM

Could be. What's a motivator?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 10:41 PM

A motivator is epic-derived technology that consists of a living tissue sample culture that is kept alive inside of the device. When the correct voltage is applied, the host epic's power can be used with the right equipment. If the tissue sample is from a still living epic, is causes severe pain and is easily found by the host epic. Some examples of motivators are the one used with the Gauss Gun, Spyril, and the suit made to provide Prof's full epic power set. The mobiles are an exception to rule about needing a motivator. Knighthawk keeps a few mobiles with motivators and the others work without.

Nihilego_(Pok%C3%A9mon)

It is one of the Ultra Beasts and is known by the code name UB-01 Symbiont (Japanese: ＵＢ０１　Ｐａｒａｓｉｔｅ).

Ashley BOT 24-Jan-21 10:49 PM

Ah hell.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 24-Jan-21 10:49 PM

Nihilego is a parasitic organism and, by latching onto one's head, is capable of injecting a neurotoxin that subtly alters the thoughts and actions of any human or Pokémon that becomes its host. This neurotoxin stimulates intense feelings of excitement while causing a loss of inhibitions, which acts to forcibly bring out any latent potential within the host while wearing away at their minds. Nihilego's exact levels of intelligence are unknown, but according to Wicke, the Aether Foundation's research it seems to act mainly on a self-preservation instinct.

introduced in Generation VII. It is one of the Ultra Beasts and is code named UB-05 Glutton.

Guzzlord is a ravenous eater, devouring everything and anything in its proximity. Its known to have devoured whole buildings, even mountains, according to reports. Its two tongues have teeth of their own and are used for grabbing food. Despite its boundless appetite, however, Guzzlord produces no known excreta, presumably converting all it eats into energy.

Do we rush in now or think of some sort of plan?

We have time to think.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:03 AM

obviously think, you have anime thinking time

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:03 AM

So what's the plan, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:03 AM

lets assume that all of gamer's crew is over there, probably liable to do whatever to velocity

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:04 AM

Right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:04 AM

what's your inventories looking like guys?

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:04 AM

Nothing special. Armour, CAD, enchanted sword, potions, spare ingredients...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:04 AM

potion effects?

cause if you can hit all of them with weakness, then ko them

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:05 AM

They're mostly healing ones, but there's a pair of poison ones.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:05 AM

poison may be dangerous with robin unconscious

austin, your cad can heal at range - how's your vision?

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:06 AM

I have a weakness/slowness/mining fatigue spell, but it takes all my mana.

My vision is pretty good.

Regen doesn't work on unconsciousness, though. That's a milk thing.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:06 AM

crap

in that case, you can hit em with a 'you are now crap' spell while colin charges in and pulls out velocity. admittedly, yall dont wanna get separated (edited)

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:07 AM

Who do I aim at?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:07 AM

gamer primarily, the rest of them will be worse at his gimmick than him

everyone else has less experience

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:08 AM

Right.

I can also teleport one person to myself, but that also takes all my mana.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:09 AM

oh in that case this gets easy - just pull velocity out (edited)

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:09 AM

Gamer's group will probably retreat if that happens.

Or come after him, and I'll be out of mana.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:09 AM

colin, you got a cad too?

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:09 AM

No.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:10 AM

thats something we need to fix soon-ish

hm.

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:10 AM

My power doesn't like them, so I didn't bother with one, but I really should get one.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:10 AM

yeah, probably

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:11 AM

I can make you one, with copies of any spell I make.

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:11 AM

Thanks. But that's not important right now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:11 AM

...actually, could try to time it so you hit gamer's group with a confoam grenade and teleport out velocity at the same instance

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:11 AM

Sure.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:11 AM

leet's probably been hit with confoam a lot in the past, yeah?

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:11 AM

He has.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:11 AM

tried to reverse-engineer it before, so that's locked out for him

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:12 AM

As far as we know, he doesn't have a counter, no.

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:12 AM

So, we teleport out Velocity and toss a confoam grenade? How do we time it?

Grenade first, or Velocity first?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:12 AM

you want velocity out as soon as theyre either hit or realize theyre being hit, so grenade first

this needs to be nearly simultaneous so abuse anime thinking time

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:13 AM

Right. Grenade, then Velocity. Got it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:13 AM

if you cant teleport velocity, teleport gamer

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:13 AM

Okay, I can see them. All four of them are there, but Gamer and Upgrade are crouching down.

I guess that's how they fooled the minimap.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:14 AM

...actually. can you tranq gamer?

that'll be faster than a grenade

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:14 AM

Not without getting closer.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:14 AM

damn

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:14 AM

We could try to get closer, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:14 AM

...actually, this says they know the exact mechanics of your power austin

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:14 AM

Shit. How?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:15 AM

the cut

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:15 AM

They knew from just that?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:15 AM

if they have the ability to clone, they might be able to clone you

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:15 AM

Fuck.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:15 AM

alternatively, buying info

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:16 AM

If I had a clone, wouldn't they try to contact me, though?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:16 AM

brain-dead like the sync clones? mastered?

simply not sapient like blasto's stuff?

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:16 AM

Hell if I know.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:16 AM

crouch while you get closer

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:16 AM

Right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:17 AM

tranq dart then confoam while austin gets velocity out of there

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:17 AM

Do I message Velocity about this in case he's playing possum?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:17 AM

yes

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:17 AM

Right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:17 AM

dont say specific

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:17 AM

What do we say, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:18 AM

just 'were getting you out of there' or something

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:18 AM

Right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:18 AM

ambiguous enough that no mind reader could pick up on the real meaning, specific enough that if hes playing possum he'll know

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:18 AM

I'll throw the grenade, you use the CAD.

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:18 AM

Right.

Do we do it now?

Any last stuff to mention?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:19 AM

colin, got a clear shot with the dart? cause if we dart then confoam we may be able to get em all

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:19 AM

I do.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:20 AM

go for it

and once you have velocity, waypoint and escape

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:20 AM

Right. I'll drop a waypoint now, then we move.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:20 AM

give it 7 seconds once you escape, then return, they'll have overlooked you

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:20 AM

Go.

Fuck!

Velocity got up at the same time I fired the dart, and it hit him instead.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:21 AM

fuck

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:21 AM

Should we have been more specific, then? Hell if I know.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:22 AM

shit. any more specific wouldve let em know

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:22 AM

Gamer was able to see and hit the grenade too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:22 AM

in that case youre just gonna have to retreat

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:22 AM

Now I don't have a clear line of sight.

I can try to fire blind.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:23 AM

if it can get velocity out of there do it

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:23 AM

Right.

Shit, I got Upgrade!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:23 AM

PUNCH IN FACE

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:23 AM

I'll stick him with a tranq.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:23 AM

ok good

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:23 AM

Okay, now pass me the CAD. I'll take a shot.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:24 AM

gamer's gonna turn this into a hostage trade now that youve got upgrade, assuming you can get his friends out of there

...grab leet

maybe

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:24 AM

We got Velocity!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:24 AM

okay thank fuck

now to leave

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:25 AM

Right. Do we take Upgrade too?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:25 AM

yes

very much so yes

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:25 AM

Okay, we're going back.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:25 AM

maybe put a containment cell on another earth? what do you think colin?

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:25 AM

That makes sense to me. Do we bring Velocity too?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:26 AM

back to the prt building? yeah

yall can split up for this, i think

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:26 AM

Right. Good idea.

I'll come back when Upgrade wakes up, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:26 AM

you might wanna get the antidote ready

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:27 AM

I will.

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:28 AM

Okay, I brought Upgrade to the old Sync base on Dalet. It's in Alaska and we've already moved everything to Gimel anyway, but the base is still there.

I'll block off the doorways.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:29 AM

if upgrade wakes up, illusion barrier -> breakout

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:29 AM

Right.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:29 AM

how fast can you build a base on one of the earths we just arent using for anything else

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:29 AM

In a few hours.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:29 AM

fuck

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:29 AM

The tranq doesn't last that long.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:29 AM

could re-up the tranq?

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:30 AM

I could do that, yes.

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 12:30 AM

I can help make the base if you need it.

Actually, think you could call in a favour from the village?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:30 AM

oh, yeah, could get some of em to help out with that

rei can stay away from any and all of gamer's friends in the interim

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:31 AM

Right. I'll DM Ennelwyn.

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 12:31 AM

I'm going straight to Earth N, don't worry.

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:31 AM

Who's keeping a watch on Upgrade?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:32 AM

technically, you atm

nora, you in class rn?

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:33 AM

Right, but who'll do it while I'm building?

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 12:33 AM

I am.

I hate school.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:33 AM

hm. colin, you gonna be free? welcome to the american school system

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:33 AM

If I deal with Velocity first, I can watch Upgrade.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:33 AM

sounds good

dealing with velocity first is probably a good idea anyways

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 12:33 AM

I thought all that stuff about American schools was just exaggeration.

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:34 AM

Right. I'll wake him up.

Velocity BOT 25-Jan-21 12:34 AM

"Ngh... Armsmaster? What happened?"

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:35 AM

"You were on patrol with Terraria when you were pulled into a pocket dimension by Gamer."

Velocity BOT 25-Jan-21 12:35 AM

"What? I was?"

"I just remember getting ready for the patrol, then waking up here."

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 12:36 AM

Ah hell.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:36 AM

does your tranquilizer cause memory loss

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:36 AM

No.

So that means this is Gamer's work.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 12:36 AM

because otherwise gamer stole his memories and all your codes are gonna need revamping (edited)

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 12:36 AM

Right. Good to take precautions.

"Gamer's group left the pocket dimension, and Terraria and myself were able to teleport you out."

"We're back at The Rig, now."

Velocity BOT 25-Jan-21 12:38 AM

"I see. I'll be signing into a M/S cell, then?"

Have you tried Factory on location?

Kamui 25-Jan-21 02:15 AM

Like the most likely outcomes are he kills his pet sadist then himself or he kills his pet sadist and gets himself birdcaged

So, what happens with Shaulyn now?

Kamui 25-Jan-21 02:16 AM

Well first we get him a better name than Shaulyn

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 02:16 AM

bring him to the protectorate, preferably with some clothes, get him some therapy

it is

at least it was

bootleg bud?

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 02:22 AM

Yeah, good idea.

that might be a risky play tho

a lot of shit has changed with gimel, and gamer is probably gonna go hard for shaulyn

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 02:23 AM

Hmm, if you're thinking about marketing, a bulkier outfit as the standard means old merch becomes outdated and worth less on the market, and they need to design a whole new set of merch and do new photoshoots and stuff. But if you have your normal set and then an alternate set, that means they can sell more stuff. Food for thought.

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 02:23 AM

That would be too hard to maintain, I'm afraid.

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 02:24 AM

Bakuda could probably pop timestop effects, yeah.

Kamui 25-Jan-21 02:25 AM

Ohhhhhhh

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 02:25 AM

multiple suits suddenly becomes immensely more feasible

Kamui 25-Jan-21 02:25 AM

stasis locker

maybe one of the storage mods will do that?

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 02:26 AM

Also, I can make sure the stuff I produce doesn't need maintenance, so maybe I could help with the armour, and I can apply that effect to it?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 02:26 AM

actually, if your inventory can hold it then you might not even need to go for that

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 02:26 AM

Yeah, inventories pause time inside them, mostly.

Some things aren't put in stasis, but most are.

is tinkertech?

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 02:27 AM

Not unless it has anything to do with time, or is made to be active while in my inventory for whatever reason.

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 02:28 AM

You can call in your noon patrol as tinkering time instead, if you're going to be helping me with my armour.

when the palace is done, yeah

though i think colin's the best person to ask about that

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 03:51 PM

I'd say not yet. Upgrade was based on a version of me who didn't like Terraria at all, let alone believed what he said.

Even with Dauntless in there, it's only been a day and a half tops since he was cloned. I don't think that's enough time for him to be safe to let in.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 03:52 PM

yeah, that's true

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 03:52 PM

Also, there's the fact we need to complete his palace without letting him know about it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 03:53 PM

yee. definitive answer is at bare minimum, not yet.

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 03:54 PM

Are there any questions we want to ask Shaulyn before we let him deal with the PRT?

clarifications on his power, and maybe as much info on gamer as he can give

clarifications on chargeburst's power would be good too

randomperson44 25-Jan-21 04:08 PM

True. But real nanobots are much harder than most science fiction authors would like to believe. They might not even be possible as they are popularly described. At that scale things are more chemistry than machinery. So they might need active dimensional shenanigans to exist. Dunno whether Armsmaster's shard would let that happen.

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 04:21 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 04:54 PM

keen observation skills are an option, but that is a lot of info yeah

randomperson44 25-Jan-21 04:55 PM

If you thought your clone soldiers would always be loyal because of your power you might not be so careful concealing stuff from them

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 04:55 PM

rei, you might have a better time using mana than the captain due to your innate phantom thief-y trickery - theres a thing to practice in the future

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 04:58 PM

I'm honestly legitimately surprised that he's that evil. If he was a character I was writing, I felt like I'd give him some secret motive and have him be a good guy the whole time, like Warmachine was.

hes naturally going to be very fucked up

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 04:59 PM

But I have no idea how the fuck human trafficking can have anything like that. It's more about the twist than anything else.

randomperson44 25-Jan-21 04:59 PM

At most he could be Cauldron type evil. With a real motive and stuff. I don't see what kind of twist could make him good though

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 05:00 PM

he might not see any of this as real, so everyones basically an 'npc' to him

if the isekai overwrote the personality of the guy

I'm really more of a fan of twists that make you go 'Oh shit. Oh shit! So that's what was up!'

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 05:01 PM

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 05:39 PM

randomperson44 25-Jan-21 05:40 PM

brain death seems like something gamer's mind would cover - his soul would still be fucked though

at that point he'd be more like an emotionless husk running on autopilot

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 06:10 PM

I really fucking hope Gamer's Mind isn't going to lock us out of his palace. That would cut off our best chance at stopping him.

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:10 PM

Which his mind prolly wont recover from, missing literally half of his soul

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:10 PM

gamer's mind is divine fuckery intervening on his behalf

i dont think you want to play this game malaki

besides, everyone's probably annoyed at the derail

i know i am

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:11 PM

But it can fail to even marginally more powerful people

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:11 PM

lets get back to the topic at hand - im pretty sure everyone in chat's more or less made up their mind about what to do with gamer (edited)

so there's no point debating it

Austin "Out of curiosity, do you know Uber and Leet's real names? We know someone with a certain power that needs real names to work."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:12 PM

the topic at hand:

randomperson44 25-Jan-21 06:13 PM

One thing I should say that I think you've been missing context on when I posited that Gamer's mind might stop palace run. A lot of Asian cultures don't really have the idea of the soul like western ones do. It's Body and Spirit, rather than Body, Mind, Soul. So that's part of the reason that I don't think that "it's the soul not the mind" really holds water in this case.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:13 PM

lets just hope - we wont know until we try, regardless

if austin can get that epic gun powered back up we can maybe punch a hole through defenses his palace may or may not have

shadows not having sponsor powers is an important thing we need to keep in mind here

anyways. uber and leets names

if we can cut his allies out from under him, that should make things easier

randomperson44 25-Jan-21 06:16 PM

What happens if you clear a palace and get people to not be mind controlled and then they get mind controlled again

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:16 PM

uber and leet might just be sticking with him because they get video game powers and 'thats cool'

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:16 PM

No one is ever mind controlled who has a palace, they are just shitty people

randomperson44 25-Jan-21 06:18 PM

Well we know that's not strictly true. Shadow Stalker had a palace despite the fact that a lot of her aggression (not all of it) was induced by her shard.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:18 PM

^^^

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:18 PM

Yeah but he shitty rationalization of the world was all her

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:19 PM

cant necessarily say that

randomperson44 25-Jan-21 06:19 PM

While this is true, it doesn't change the fact that she was still somewhat mind-controlled and still had a palace

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:19 PM

given a large chunk of her personality is likely obscured by shard induced fuckery, we dont know how much is her and how much is shard influence (edited)

rachel's got the same sort of issue come to think of it, and shes borderline got a palace

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:20 PM

Still doesnt apply for how mementos functions as a baseline

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:20 PM

this isnt canonical persona

Lucky_Plucky21 25-Jan-21 06:21 PM

True

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:21 PM

Like in sure Tagg has a palace

Lucky_Plucky21 25-Jan-21 06:21 PM

Oh yes

I’m pretty sure 60-70% of people of worm has a palace

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:21 PM

And i bet Piggot has one in the works

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:22 PM

going 'this isnt accurate to the source material' is probably a very destructive way of thinking - nyx isnt a thing there, mementos doesnt have the holy grail as a big bad, etc etc

it'll cornhole you into locking out possibilities that could actually be true

using them as more guidelines rather than rulesets might work best

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:22 PM

...the whole changing the heart thing is based on making them realize their previous actions were shitty

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:23 PM

yeah

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:24 PM

So if at their base the individual is a sociopath, it prolly wont work, if anything it'll alert them to someone fucking around with masterpowers

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:24 PM

id argue shido was a sociopath, as was okumura

https://www.cnbc.com/2019/04/08/the-science-behind-why-so-many-successful-millionaires-are-psychopaths-and-why-it-doesnt-have-to-be-a-bad-thing.html

anyways, this argument has kind of ate the channel, so lets stop here and just try to solve problems rather than cause them

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:32 PM

Yeah so still no idea wtf the crate is

Top contender was battery i think

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:33 PM

i still think its some sort of charging station - it may be responsible for keeping the IB intact

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:33 PM

He'd take it with him on missions if true

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 06:33 PM

It would have to be a battery or charging station that he can't just carry in his inventory, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:34 PM

if his inventory works like austin's, he may not be able to interact with it while its in there

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 06:34 PM

And it's something he thinks is very valuable, that he carries around a bit sometimes, but not all the time.

And he always carries it with him when prepping for a mission.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:34 PM

the barrier might be in danger of collapsing when it doesnt have him in it?

itd explain why he carries it around while he preps - he knows hes gonna leave, so he personally tops it up to keep the thing intact

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:36 PM

...i mean if you could sneak a bomb on it small enough to crack it open we could test if that is what it is for

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:36 PM

we cant get in there yet, unfortunately

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:36 PM

...could be a golem core he's charging or something

Lucky_Plucky21 25-Jan-21 06:36 PM

True

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:36 PM

fuck, could be

Lucky_Plucky21 25-Jan-21 06:37 PM

Can we blow it up and him in the process

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:37 PM

gamer did have that massive fuck-off golem in the comic didnt he

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:37 PM

"How big is the crate?"

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:37 PM

Usually spheres but he could be basing it off cuddles

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:37 PM

we also forgot to get uber and leet's actual identities

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:38 PM

It's something like timed failure and human physical skill iirc

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 06:39 PM

"Maybe four feet tall with a three foot by three foot base?"

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:39 PM

So nothing bigger than that, then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:40 PM

cant be cuddlesworth

might be a good drop from the gacha, in which case we're never guessing it

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:40 PM

Golem cores can be that small and make a man sized golem from local materials

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:40 PM

point

Dubiously Motivated Pika 25-Jan-21 06:41 PM

(It is guessable, dw.)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:41 PM

why would he carry it around before mission prep tho

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:41 PM

"What does he do during mission prep?"

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 06:43 PM

"He plans out the mission, gets all the necessary equipment from storage, checks on the clones, buy some things from the Abyss Gacha, gathers the team he needs, drops the crate back off, and leaves with the team."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:44 PM

thats a good chunk of stuff he'd need to do, there

how long's that take?

ballpark estimate

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:44 PM

"How long does that take?"

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 06:45 PM

"A few hours? 45 minutes at the shortest and four hours at the longest."

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:45 PM

...he still has Colin's powers right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:46 PM

no, it's a hybridization of dauntless and colin's power

a few hours sounds about right for charging a massive battery

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:46 PM

He can use a set pool of charge to turn up to nine items into tinkertech.

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:46 PM

But no actual tinkering

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:47 PM

No, no actual tinkering.

Lucky_Plucky21 25-Jan-21 06:47 PM

Well time to see what to do

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:47 PM

...think he could do a bootleg CAD

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:47 PM

no

shards dont do cads (edited)

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:47 PM

He needs to know how the tech would work, so he needs to make blueprints and stuff, but he doesn't need to go though the actual building step.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:48 PM

colin's shard in particular hates cads

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:48 PM

Yeah, shards don't gel at all with magic. The Magicologist is being helped by Forge, so they're the exception.

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:48 PM

Just need him to be able to teleport out

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:48 PM

if thats the case, he can just make a teleportation device

like one of bakuda's grenades (edited)

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:49 PM

Maybe stage a Echidna style break out

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:49 PM

colin's halberd already has that feature

admittedly its a return feature, but still

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:50 PM

It's prolly beacon based teleportation

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:50 PM

he can make any tinkertech he imagines, so

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:51 PM

There's technology in both my halberd and gauntlet to facilitate the recall function.

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:51 PM

Even if he's still in the IB while their gone, he can gather mats to make more elaborate tech to booby trap the base (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:51 PM

shaulyn's not going back

besides, he couldnt get in if he wanted

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:51 PM

"By the way, do you still have a speciality?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:51 PM

not without mana understanding

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 06:52 PM

"I seem to, but it seems to be more open than my old one."

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:52 PM

Im saying if he's still stuck in the IB when they leave he can set up their place to blow

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:53 PM

i mean. yeah, but we arent sending shaulyn back with gamer. gamer has a loyalty touch, regardless, so he wouldnt

Kamui 25-Jan-21 06:53 PM

we're not doing that yeah

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:54 PM

Wait... Vasil takes Shaulyn out with him?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:54 PM

where do you think this is taking place man

who do you think shaulyn is

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:54 PM

Vasil can make two or three people loyal to him at a time.

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:54 PM

And Vasil has shitty NTR villian powers

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:56 PM

For context, we got into a fight with Gamer, Leet, and Upgrade, and we were able to kidnap Upgrade and bring him to a base on another Earth.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:56 PM

was intended to be holding cells yeah

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:56 PM

Gamer must've used his power on someone else, because Upgrade/Shaulyn is confirmed clean of it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:56 PM

velocity

duh

gamer was on top of him

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:57 PM

Great...just...fucking...watever, only thing worse is if it was Nice Guy instead

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:57 PM

thankfully velocity is locked in m/s

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:57 PM

If it's just loyalty, I can use my lie detector to clear Velocity.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:57 PM

yeah

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 06:58 PM

I assumed Gamer let Upgrade loose only after we kidnapped him. I guess he just didn't mind Upgrade spilling his secrets, since we can't get into IBs.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:59 PM

yet

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:59 PM

...was Captian unsuccessful with that experiment or did yall just not ask?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:59 PM

captain was unsuccessful yeah

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:59 PM

Shit

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:59 PM

felt something for a bit, then it slipped away

rei's practicing rn, since she has persona and anime on her side

Malaki 25-Jan-21 06:59 PM

Staff of Aspect? Any results from that?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 06:59 PM

Yall still sitting on that!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:00 PM

...actually. rei, if you do this in mementos could you break in even easier

mementos boosts stuff like this

Malaki 25-Jan-21 07:00 PM

Fuxking, i thot magicologist had it!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:00 PM

magicologist does

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:00 PM

Yeah, I dropped it off with them. I'll get them to mail it back over.

Malaki 25-Jan-21 07:00 PM

Any results my country sized friend?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:01 PM

speaking of which, hows the end rod experiments going?

[The Magicologist] BOT 25-Jan-21 07:02 PM

I have not had the Staff of Aspect long enough to determine anything from it. I have a set of prototypes, but none of them give off the right amount of light to match the end rod from Minecraft.

Malaki 25-Jan-21 07:02 PM

Ehh close enough for government work?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:02 PM

dang. well, progress is progress, every little bit helps!

rei may be able to crack a few secrets to the staff in mementos, assuming it works out

Malaki 25-Jan-21 07:03 PM

Yeah

...Magi can you multitask? Or are you too damaged for that?

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 07:04 PM

Alternatively, The Captain could pick up where he left off, since he made some progress in that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:04 PM

magi is multitasking that is a good idea, too

[The Magicologist] BOT 25-Jan-21 07:04 PM

True multitasking is not among my current functions.

Malaki 25-Jan-21 07:04 PM

Welp magical boi iron-kun is a go

...quick question would Captain be considered a first gen or second gen trigger?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:05 PM

captain's a power construct

an admittedly sapient one, but one nevertheless

love magic working like that

Malaki 25-Jan-21 07:06 PM

With bits of knowledge his mom had, that could have only existed from cribbing notes from his shard (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:06 PM

magic.

i dont think the captain has any of colins powers tho

Malaki 25-Jan-21 07:07 PM

I meant in like a sympathetic connection

The magic connecting him to his mom's shard

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:08 PM

the magicologist kind of did their own thing when austin tried to use golemancy, so... probably best qualified to answer that question

not sure how relevant this is, tho? we still need to work on mana

[The Magicologist] BOT 25-Jan-21 07:08 PM

Host Captain Cuddlesworth has a bud of myself only. Any familial connections he claims beyond Austin are simply due to imprinting on the first male he saw.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:09 PM

ah, i c

Austin isnt male tho

so the plan is to pass the captain the staff of aspect, yeah?

Captain Cuddlesworth BOT 25-Jan-21 07:11 PM

ill start meditating again after school is over

The thing Akechi did to kill someone or at least a vegetable

Malaki 25-Jan-21 07:25 PM

Killing the shadow kills the soul, usually leaving the body dead or vegitative

Kills the soul cus u cant survive missing half of it

Kamui 25-Jan-21 07:26 PM

can we not go directly for the nuclear option

THIS

Lucky_Plucky21 25-Jan-21 07:26 PM

This is the tactical option

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 07:26 PM

There's the thing where Akechi drives people nuts, and he used to control shadows. Then there's killing a shadow to kill the original.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:26 PM

this is the nuclear option

Lucky_Plucky21 25-Jan-21 07:26 PM

The other is to blew him up to smitherins when he is in the city

No Thats The stupid option here

He is the gamer

No

Let’s put a pin in this

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:29 PM

We can decide when we go into his palace, which we can't do yet because we don't know where it is.

So this is officially a problem for later.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:29 PM

yeah

Lucky_Plucky21 25-Jan-21 07:29 PM

Have you tried Uber and leet lab? (edited)

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:29 PM

Nothing we can do about it.

Not likely to be there

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:30 PM

No idea where their old lab is.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:30 PM

its the factory illusion barrier

its not that we dont know where it is, its that we dont know how to get in

Kamui 25-Jan-21 07:30 PM

So figuring out how to Illusion Barrier is kind of the first step.

Yeah.

yes

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 07:31 PM

Mind asking how Shaulyn found out so much so fast?

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:31 PM

Sure.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:31 PM

that tour was so if shaulyn was kidnapped, he could be a decoy i think

like i mentioned earlier

interrogations and all that

i dont really get why though, given gamer and co can just storm in, kidnap people, and leave

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:32 PM

"You've known the answers to every question I've been able to ask. How were you able to find out about it in such a short time span?"

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 07:33 PM

"I'm not lying, my lie detector can tell you that much."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:33 PM

that aint the question

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:33 PM

"Oh, no, I didn't think you were lying. I was just curious how you got so much info so fast."

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 07:34 PM

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 07:34 PM

Motherfucker.

Jihan did have that.

Well shit.

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:34 PM

"It's been a day and a half on the outside. It's the 22nd."

"The character Gamer's powers are based on was able to create illusion barriers - pocket dimensions that is - with up to 10x time dilation, if I recall correctly."

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 07:36 PM

"It's just the 22nd?"

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:36 PM

"Yeah."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:37 PM

come to think of that, anime thinking time might just break the time dilation effect

randomperson44 25-Jan-21 07:37 PM

I completely forgot that the time dilation was a thing somehow.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:37 PM

it was a later thing i think

Kamui 25-Jan-21 07:37 PM

it has been a long ass time since i read the gamer too

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:38 PM

if i recall rightly, han jihan had months to build up. gamer must be grinding xp like crazy

Kamui 25-Jan-21 07:38 PM

Jacob might also have been a fan of the Gamer beforehand

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 07:38 PM

And Jihan has Sun-il to help him grind too.

either that or everyone he masters counts towards his own xp when they do stuff

Oh boy, let's hope not.

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 07:40 PM

Actually, are there any clones of Austin? It would be good just to check.

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:40 PM

"What happened to the clones made of me? I assume there's some."

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 07:41 PM

"There have been, but none of them were really satisfactory, for some reason."

Kamui 25-Jan-21 07:42 PM

Well Austin has a Sponsorship and is also a Case 53

both of which might fuck up whatever cloning process he's got

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 07:43 PM

"It's not like the clones of m- Dauntless, where he made a batch and then stopped. He keeps trying, but he doesn't seem satisfied with any of them. He doesn't even bother giving any of them costumes before getting rid of them."

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:43 PM

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 07:43 PM

Well, that's a good sign!

cant clone sponsor powers

yeah

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:45 PM

"I assume he was able to make normal clones of everyone else he copied? And just in case there's a miscommunication, would you mind naming all of the people who got cloned?"

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 07:46 PM

"Yeah, all the other clones are normal. He has clones of me, Blasto, Battery, Assault, me, Velocity, Miss Militia, and Terraria."

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 07:47 PM

Okay, he has Battery, which is interesting. It looks like he can do Cauldron capes, then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:47 PM

yep

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:48 PM

"Were the clones of me still tougher than normal people and had no need to sleep? And none of them were put in labs?"

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 07:48 PM

"Yes they were, and no they weren't. None of them had tinker ratings, as far as I could tell."

gamer can eat shit

aint got nothin on minecraft

Forge BOT 25-Jan-21 07:51 PM

Sponsorships' powers cannot be copied, suppressed, or stolen. They can be gifted through whatever power they have that allows them to share.

randomperson44 25-Jan-21 07:51 PM

Does Gamer even know about all the sponsored and stuff? We only found out because this chat lets us communicate with forge

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:52 PM

oh, nice id imagine he does if he has any memories of earth 2020, given minecraft, terraria, steven universe, etc

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:52 PM

...It was before Gamer's attack on the Rig that I told Armsmaster about the sponsorships thing.

The clones are going to know.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:52 PM

shit

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:52 PM

Hell, my clones are going to know.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:53 PM

double shit

well, at least he won't have updated info

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:53 PM

Yeah. The one beacon of hope in this shit-show.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:53 PM

this. kind of fucks up the palace idea

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:54 PM

"Are there any other hybrid capes you didn't mention, just to clarify?"

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 07:54 PM

"One - a 'Captain America'."

...shit

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:55 PM

"What are their powers?"

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 07:56 PM

"They have an indestructible shield they have very minor telekinetic control over, and they're above peak human in all aspects, including learning speed. They also seem to be very good at getting out of scrapes."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:57 PM

shamrock combined with austin i think

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:57 PM

"Are there clones of Shamrock too?"

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 07:57 PM

"Shamrock?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:57 PM

a member of faultline's crew

would've been relatively new, i think

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:58 PM

"A new member of Faultline's Crew."

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 07:58 PM

"I haven't heard of her, and I haven't seen anyone in The Factory that I didn't recognise."

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:58 PM

its the only person whose power i can think of includes minor tk and impossible luck

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:59 PM

"When you say that they're very good at getting out of scrapes, is this some sort of good luck?"

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 07:59 PM

could also be you and miss militia, i guess?

Shaulyn BOT 25-Jan-21 07:59 PM

"It's closer to Aegis' power, though I haven't seen any clones of him around."

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 07:59 PM

I guess it could be, with the 'weapon they can control' bit.

TM, would you be able to give a power like this?

[The Magicologist] BOT 25-Jan-21 08:01 PM

One of my functions is preservation. It would be possible, yes.

Kamui 25-Jan-21 08:01 PM

it's too early for shamrock though?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:02 PM

maybe

before or during the events of worm, she showed up

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 08:02 PM

She wouldn't be there, yet.

She wasn't there in the Gregor interlude, which would be present day-ish.

Kamui 25-Jan-21 08:03 PM

oh yeah we should offer to mob-talker those guys

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 08:03 PM

She was there after Leviathan, though, in Faultline's Crew's attack on the Merchants at the Waymoth Shopping Center.

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 08:03 PM

Oh yeah, that would be a good idea, since it works on C53s.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:04 PM

yeah

actually, it might be a half decent way of poaching faultline and co

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 08:05 PM

I vaguely recall Gregor's investigation into case 53s being part of a personal project.

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 08:05 PM

They're mercenaries. We have golden eggs.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:05 PM

point

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 08:06 PM

What about NEPEA-5? Would they be able to sell parahuman-made gold?

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 08:06 PM

...They're criminals.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:06 PM

well, i know newter for one would probably hop on the protectorate bandwagon if he could be a changer rather than a case-53

if every time you touched someone they went loopy, you'd get incredibly touch starved

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 08:07 PM

Though, wouldn't that mean it would erase his power, if it worked like that?

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 08:07 PM

Sync.

Extra body.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:08 PM

sync is a thought yeah

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 08:08 PM

We already know that works too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:08 PM

though that means we would have to let newter into the loop

generally speaking we're trying to keep it kinda limited so as to not have secrets spill at the next master-stranger threat

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 08:09 PM

Have they not already

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:09 PM

i know, i know

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 08:09 PM

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Gamer decided to spill some beans on this whole thing.

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 08:09 PM

Well, no reason to let it get worse than it is.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:10 PM

gamer becoming too high-profile would draw heartbreaker's attention

if he has the memories of the previous vasil in that body, that's probably something that haunts his nightmares

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 08:11 PM

Good point.

He's been trying to keep stuff on the down-low, hasn't he?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:11 PM

kind of. breaking into the protectorate hq to clone everyone in there isnt especially down low

but that isnt gonna get reported on the news

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 08:12 PM

Especially if he's been keeping the clones a secret.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:13 PM

giant zombie is gonna get reported on the news, so they focus on uber and leet rather than gamer himself

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 08:13 PM

Oh, that's a good point.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:13 PM

fucked as it is to say, we may be able to use this if we can bait him up to canada

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 08:14 PM

...I hate that, but it's also not a bad idea.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:14 PM

keeping him out of instant dungeons, forcing him to make too much noise to keep his presence secret

it may force him to escalate in retaliation tho

it probably would tbh

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 08:15 PM

Fucking escalation.

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 08:15 PM

Ah, I just got a message from Miss Militia asking where we were. It looks like we'll have to get back to the Rig now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:16 PM

probably yeah

did velocity break out or something like that (edited)

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 08:16 PM

No, she was just worried about us.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:16 PM

fair

may wanna let her and everyone else in the protectorate and prt know about gamer's master power

and also let em know about upgrade an stuff

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 08:17 PM

Hell, should Gamer's control power be public knowledge?

yes

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 08:19 PM

I've made five of 'em so far. Dunno if we'll need more or not.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:19 PM

well, unless suddenly 6 beasts spawn at the same time, probably not

we can probably manage nether exploration for lucky blocks again

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:22 PM

I could use all five on the nihilego and still not catch it.

still, while we have em, we're probably good

decent odds and all

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 08:22 PM

...Who's still a potential problem.

Yeah, I can hope that these are enough.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:23 PM

we'll also probably see the odds of catching it when you hit one with it

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 08:23 PM

I'll probably get a pokemon with status effects for my starter, for a better catch rate.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:23 PM

ooh, good idea

...hey, are you able to make evolved forms of pokemon

Aight people, time to get out there and make some friends!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:48 PM

well, austin, here's your chance to try for gem powers, if you're interested

your physiology is probably pretty receptive to that sort of thing, given its origin

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 08:49 PM

My only problem with this is that we might get access to more interesting gems and be stuck with comparatively shit-tier gems.

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 08:49 PM

Sync clones, forehead.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:49 PM

sync clones yeah

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 08:49 PM

Oh. Right, that works.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:49 PM

just clone a body that doesnt have a gem

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 08:50 PM

I'll start an ender pearl cooking, then we can install it later today.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:50 PM

...actually, if i recall rightly, the gem can be removed technically

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 08:50 PM

Sure, that works.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:50 PM

it cooking on gimel?

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 08:51 PM

Not without risking the health of the user. Yeah, Gimel. That's where the secret lab is.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:51 PM

austin does have a brute rating on top of everything else

at worst, they can regen (edited)

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 08:51 PM

Rotom is cooking too. I'll help with the Roto-Armour.

Kamui 25-Jan-21 08:51 PM

yeah austin is reasonably tough

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 08:51 PM

The mental health too, to clarify.

I mean you can never really have enough brute ratings

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:52 PM

oh

shit

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 08:52 PM

I think it's better to just use sync bodies in this case.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:52 PM

yeah, prolly

Kamui 25-Jan-21 08:52 PM

yes

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:52 PM

Okay, I got out of school. I'm ready to help tinker.

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 08:55 PM

We'll be in the Rig lab, though we may have to move to the Gimel lab for security purposes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:55 PM

point

that might be a good idea

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 08:57 PM

The lab on the Rig is far better equipped, but the Gimel one is more private.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 08:58 PM

yee

plus this lets you upgrade the lab, potentially

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 08:59 PM

Oh yeah, good point. The tools there aren't the best.

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 09:00 PM

I'll come too, with the rotom-making box. If we're all working together nearby while it's cooking, it should come out better.

I don't suppose any of you guys have any, like, ectoplasm I could feed it?

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 09:00 PM

Would soul sand work? That stuff is basically ectoplasm.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 09:04 PM

true

worst case scenario, austin could expand the place some

Kamui 25-Jan-21 09:04 PM

Eh you can just knock down a wall to make room

'support pillars aren't real' i say as i bulldoze down the southwest corner of the building

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 09:05 PM

Hell, I could just expand the inside of the lab.

How do you think Pokemon houses are bigger on the inside? That's not just a game thing.

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 09:07 PM

Is there a limit to the sort of container you can make bigger on the inside?

Kamui 25-Jan-21 09:07 PM

Once again the restrictions of the fucking game boy hardware work in our favor

randomperson44 25-Jan-21 09:07 PM

And apparently it's cheap enough that basically every building has it

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 09:07 PM

No limits on shape, but I can only push the space out to maybe three or four times as big on the inside.

Kamui 25-Jan-21 09:07 PM

that's plenty

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 09:07 PM

Pokeballs are an exception due to the nature of Pokemon.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 09:07 PM

miniaturization + spacial expansion = ???

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 09:08 PM

Oh Shit.

Nora BOT 25-Jan-21 09:08 PM

It almost reminds me of the description of his power in the Jumpchain doc.

randomperson44 25-Jan-21 09:09 PM

His shard still has to learn how to deal with pokemon physics spatial fuckery last time it tried to analyze new physics it freaked tf out and ragequit so idk how that would go

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 09:10 PM

Could always invite it in here.

TM got better after coming in here, right?

So we bring in his shard too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 09:10 PM

point. colin, id have a chat with your shard first, though

its connected to the scion network

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 09:10 PM

Yes, that's a good idea.

Ashley BOT 25-Jan-21 09:10 PM

That obelisk thing could help, I think we were talking about that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 09:11 PM

unless anyone has the big brass balls and raw charisma to recruit scion this is a precaution that ought to be taken

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 09:12 PM

Obelisk, and then see if we can invite it in?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 09:12 PM

depends on the takeaway you get from the obelisk

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 09:12 PM

Yeah.

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 09:13 PM

I'll go to the obelisk, then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 09:13 PM

Colin BOT 25-Jan-21 09:17 PM

It mentioned 'The first time The Warrior was destroyed'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 09:18 PM

theyd need to keep stuff secret from the rest of the scion network, after all

Legend BOT 25-Jan-21 09:54 PM

What are the vial's P, O and R values?

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 09:54 PM

Uh...

Oh, here they are.

R is 5, O is 9, P is 7.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 09:54 PM

do you know what that means?

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 09:55 PM

No clue. Legend?

Legend BOT 25-Jan-21 09:55 PM

R is stability, O is uniqueness, and P is power.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 09:55 PM

R refers to the reliability of the sample. Samples with high R values produce simple, predictable results. Samples with low R values risk physical changes, or simply give wildly varying types of powers. O refers to a power’s "uniqueness", how unusual it is for parahumans to have similar abilities. This value is particularly subjective. Higher ratings in this value make it easier to stand out as a hero or villain, while low ratings give simple powers already possessed by a number of other parahumans. P refers to the average PRT Classifications the sample provides.

did the values for your own vial look like that, legend?

Legend BOT 25-Jan-21 09:57 PM

The vial I took was from before they'd gotten the science of vials that exact, but I know enough about the vials to know what those three key numbers mean.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 25-Jan-21 10:02 PM

Clad: Vial that results in power-suit Tinkers. Doesn't draw inspiration from other vials, but rather from the host. Deviates if they do not have something for the power to draw a specialty from. Higher chance of mutation the less unique of a person the host is. Mechs, armor and bodysuits are possible outcomes of this vial.[14]

Induction forging refers to the use of an induction heater to pre-heat metals prior to deformation using a press or hammer. Typically metals are heated to between 1,100 and 1,200 °C (2,010 and 2,190 °F) to increase their malleability and aid flow in the forging die.[1]

actually, now that miss militia knows about all this, we can probably get her hooked up with a sync shell

itd help her avoid dying and all that

Austin BOT 25-Jan-21 11:48 PM

Good idea.

I trust her, but Joker hasn't made the best impression on her.

we'll need to figure out how to fix that

taking down hookwolf via palace specifically might be a solid idea

Rei BOT 25-Jan-21 11:55 PM

I can do that.

Legend BOT 26-Jan-21 12:10 AM

Good to have you here.

Hello, Legend. Terraria did say that you were in here too.

also, good news! so long as we can get a living dna sample from mouse protector, she can be revived

its the same technique we used for Hero

Austin BOT 26-Jan-21 12:12 AM

Yeah, we need a flesh sample to revive someone or make them a new body. That's the only real limitation.

Miss Militia BOT 26-Jan-21 12:12 AM

I see.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:12 AM

also, we can clarify some stuff about joker if you like

Miss Militia BOT 26-Jan-21 12:12 AM

Why does this chat room display real names for some people and code names for others?

Joker?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:13 AM

preferred ID, id assume

Forge BOT 26-Jan-21 12:13 AM

Oh, I can fix the names thing, if you like. Gimmie a mo.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:15 AM

anyways, yeah, joker - so she wasnt kidding about requiring discretion about how her power works, if she mentioned that when the two of you met up. it induces changes of heart based on identifying everything you did to wrong people in your life and instilling a desire to repent for all that, and if someone knows about the exact mechanics they can probably kill her with some degree of ease

it requires a lot of legwork to use and can range anywhere from 'if she's really, really unlucky she could die' to 'if she's really, really lucky she'll survive'

we know this because we reched out to anyone heroic with a powerset with some similarities to austin's, due to that becoming relatively common as of late

the whole mess with colin nearly cutting his arm off? bad reaction to a thing known as a lucky block, if you hadnt heard of that. they've got completely random effects normally, the one colin got resulted in a copy of his mind from ~2 years in the future sent back in time (edited)

joker's actually the reason that whole mess got sorted out well

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:19 AM

Yeah, Joker's powerset is an absurd gamechanger. Just like Austin's.

And Diamond's

And Steelheart's.

And Gamer's. (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:28 AM

It wasn’t big in the sense that the trees or even the mountains were big. It was big in the way that transcended what she could even see or feel. It was like seeing something bigger than the whole wide planet, except more – this thing that was too large to comprehend to start with, it extended. She didn’t have a better word to describe what she was perceiving. It was as though there were mirror images of it, but each image existed in the same place, some moving differently, and sometimes, very rarely, one image came in contact with with something that the others didn’t. Each of the images was as real and concrete as the others. And this made it big in a way that she couldn’t describe if she were a hundred year old scholar or philosopher with access to the best libraries in the world.

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:28 AM

Sometimes it fucks up and you get sone Bonus Permission

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 12:28 AM

And it was alive. A living thing.

She knew without having to think about it, each of those echoes or extensions of the entity was as much a part of a connected whole as her hand or nose was to her. Each was something this living entity was aware of, controlled and moved with intent and purpose. As though it existed and extended into those possible selves all at once.

It’s dying, she thought. The outermost extensions of the creature were flaking off and breaking into fragments as it swam through an emptiness without air, not moving but sinuously adjusting its self through the existences that held the echoes, shrinking away here and swelling there, carrying itself away at a speed that outpaced light. In its wake, flakes and fragments sloughed off of the entity like seeds from an impossibly large karahindiba, or dandelion, in a steady wind. Seeds more numerous than all the specks of dirt across all the Earth.

One of those fragments seemed to grow, getting bigger, larger, looming in her consciousness until it was all she could perceive, as though the moon was falling, colliding with the earth. Falling directly on top of her.

for instance, shadow stalker.

sophia hess, winslow high school, the jungle

she viewed everything through a predator/prey mentality, and was abusing one of her classmates there in particular and getting away with it scot free

there's a place for people who dont actually have nearly as much of a clouded view, known as mementos

its 'everyone's' palace

by which i mean most people, but not all - theres probably a few who live their life totally clear-headed and unbiased, but those are rare at best

joker's projection power is based on constructs that form in mementos and palaces, known as shadows - strong ones tend to be associated with actual people, weak ones are just based on collections of ideas

mythological figures, stuff like that

confronting your own shadow can lead to you getting a personalized one

Lucky_Plucky21 26-Jan-21 12:38 AM

It’s mostly dependent on your personality and what not

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:39 AM

that is to say, if you can accept that all the negative traits it represents are yours

Lucky_Plucky21 26-Jan-21 12:39 AM

And rejecting it tend to carry negative consequences

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:39 AM

yeah, that tends to make them go berserk, lash out, etc

it. very nearly went horribly wrong in colin's palace tbh

Lucky_Plucky21 26-Jan-21 12:39 AM

In other words trying to kill you

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:40 AM

but all worked out thanks to the whole defiant situation

Lucky_Plucky21 26-Jan-21 12:40 AM

Also if something kills your shadow there at best you will be left in a coma

At worst instantaneous death

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:40 AM

yeah... jokers pretty damn good about regulating amount of force used

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:43 AM

That's the Joker infodump, Would You Like To Know More?

Hannah Washington | Miss Militia BOT 26-Jan-21 12:43 AM

I... think I get the idea, somewhat?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:44 AM

i'll see if i can find a summary video

Hannah Washington | Miss Militia BOT 26-Jan-21 12:45 AM

So, she goes into people's palaces and changes things until they're however she wants them to be?

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:45 AM

Again, this is an incredibly powerful ability with immense potential to do good, and also immense capacity for terror.

It's much more difficult than that

Hannah Washington | Miss Militia So, she goes into people's palaces and changes things until they're however she wants them to be?

Lucky_Plucky21 26-Jan-21 12:45 AM

She changes desire

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:45 AM

no. no real control over the end result besides repentance (edited)

Lucky_Plucky21 26-Jan-21 12:46 AM

Not the person themselves

Think of it as a change of personalities

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:46 AM

stuff can influence other stuff but ultimately it all goes towards that goal

thats a terrible analogy lucky

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 26-Jan-21 12:46 AM

Basically, I steal a treasure that represents their distorted desires.

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:46 AM

the distortions caused by desire actively fight against being modified. Violently.

Lucky_Plucky21 26-Jan-21 12:46 AM

And repeatedly

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:46 AM

calm down yall, no need to launch into in-depth stuff

this is going off the rails

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 26-Jan-21 12:47 AM

But yeah, I can't really do anything to a palace owner aside from, like, stealing their treasure.

I mean, I can kill their shadow, but that kills the palace owner too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:48 AM

generally speaking, we're trying to avoid that, though there are a few rogue actors in here

part of how rei came off to you initially was on urging by a user named malaki, who. well they tend to give the most violent/anarchistic solutions frequently and repeatedly (edited)

you'll probably see that later

so yeah, heads up on that

we have the general etiquette of an internet forum, cause thats kind of how we interact with yall on our end

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:51 AM

i don't know what his fuckin damage is

Hannah Washington | Miss Militia BOT 26-Jan-21 12:51 AM

I see.

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 26-Jan-21 12:51 AM

Yeah, I was kinda dumb there.

I def went too hard on the teenage rebellion.

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:51 AM

getting too into character

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:51 AM

yeah. still, this is an opportunity to apologize for all that

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 26-Jan-21 12:52 AM

^

Yeah, sorry about mouthing off. I kinda panicked and said what I thought would sound cool.

Hannah Washington | Miss Militia BOT 26-Jan-21 12:52 AM

I accept your apology, then.

I still think you should join the Wards, to better direct your power.

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:53 AM

Funny story, Rei's not actually a parahuman

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:53 AM

yeah

hey colin, where's your brain scanner?

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:53 AM

Which is actually unique among this group

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 26-Jan-21 12:53 AM

In the lab. I'll fetch it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:53 AM

rei, if you could come back

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 26-Jan-21 12:54 AM

Yeah, I left just in case you didn't want to know, so I had plausible deniability.

I wanted to give the tinkers a cool bike I found, but I was co-opted into being a hat rack for '3/4 mm induction hammers' and stuff like that.

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:55 AM

She got a Reckoners-verse bike from a Block

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 26-Jan-21 12:56 AM

To clarify, there's tinkertech items called 'lucky blocks' that spontaneously create items or cause random events to happen.

That's how she got the bike. It's not stolen.

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:56 AM

These can range from 'neat bike' to 'a monster popped out'

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:56 AM

well, it goes up from 'neat bike' for sure

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:56 AM

and in one memorable case 'your future self gets stuck in your head'

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 12:57 AM

From the sounds of it, the bike is one of those ones with some gravity controllers stuck on it so you can do cool stunts with it.

I think I vaguely remember taking those apart?

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:57 AM

were those tech or were those the things powered by epic meat?

i've never read reckoners

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 12:58 AM

Regular tech, don't worry.

The gauss gun has epic meat, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:58 AM

eugh

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:58 AM

it'd have to.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:58 AM

-Epic meat gun

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:58 AM

gauss rifle

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 26-Jan-21 12:59 AM

-Cloning vats that need meat

It's a terrible idea, I know

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 12:59 AM

that's a dangerous line of thinking

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 26-Jan-21 12:59 AM

But it's a thought.

Kamui 26-Jan-21 12:59 AM

It's a terrible idea.

Epics are violent megalomaniacs by default

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 01:00 AM

nora, was conflux a good guy who overcame said megalomania?

i recall that happening all of like once from my wiki dives (edited)

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 01:02 AM

He was a special epic who's powers meant he was less influenced by the megalomania.

Then he saved a kid from his worst fear, a dog, and got over the megalomania entirely.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 01:03 AM

so it could potentially be an Epic idea, is what youre saying

hm.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 01:03 AM

I'm pretty sure the gauss gun is powered by a regular epic

So it's a bad idea.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 01:03 AM

ok yeah in that case fuck that yeah

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 26-Jan-21 01:04 AM

Yeah, I know, it was just a thought that occurred to me.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 01:04 AM

Oh, speaking of Conflux, the power is on in Chicago, so they might have Conflux there.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 01:04 AM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 01:25 AM

you want it?

You think I should be the one to use it?

Why?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 01:25 AM

lemme grab the text for the thing again rq

Clad: Vial that results in power-suit Tinkers. Doesn't draw inspiration from other vials, but rather from the host. Deviates if they do not have something for the power to draw a specialty from. Higher chance of mutation the less unique of a person the host is. Mechs, armor and bodysuits are possible outcomes of this vial.[14] Foreign Element: Three vials that were exceptionally likely to produce deviant cases. People who drink these vials do not forget their trigger event visions. Cauldron speculated that they were in some sense the opposite of the "Balance" vial, totally lacking in the restrictions that protect humans. Parahumans produced by foreign element vials include:[1] Eidolon, a defensive power utilizing warped space, a power that allows one to take over a nearby parahuman’s mind, body and powers automatically on death, attack or mover capabilities

you're a creative type, and will only become moreso as time goes on id imagine, plus you already have a tinker-y database in your head

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 01:27 AM

So is Ashley. Why not her?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 01:27 AM

my a key isnt cooperating one sec

F

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 01:29 AM

heres hoping that issue is sorted out. anyways

honestly i dont have a reason why not her but you popped into my head first by merit of seniority (edited)

i guess because cauldron vial might fuck her up mentally speaking? neuroplasticity and all that when shards connect at a young age it doesnt leave much room for personality growth

grey boy, the original, is a good example of that i think

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 01:32 AM

Good point.

I mean, I'm pretty sure that she's mentally older than 10, she just got a new body when she came here.

Kamui 26-Jan-21 01:33 AM

Probably

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 01:33 AM

Kamui 26-Jan-21 01:34 AM

Oh right you're also not a parahuman you're a diamond-human

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 26-Jan-21 01:34 AM

I say that you can get the vial. You actually use mechs already.

I'm going to be mostly using Pokemon, probably.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 01:35 AM

yeah, plus this lets ashley pull the 'im not a parahuman' card, worst case scenario

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 26-Jan-21 01:35 AM

Huh, good point. Yeah, this is defo going to Nora, then.

Kamui 26-Jan-21 01:35 AM

yeah i thought you both had tinker shards, not just a techbase

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 01:35 AM

nope

gotta love the rob fuckery

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 01:36 AM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 01:40 AM

huh. wonder if that implies anything

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 01:40 AM

I hope not.

They seem to imply that this is a vial that someone bought, but I don't know why they're just handing out foreign element vials.

Well, bottoms up, I guess.

might be a bit harder to move it from the nether to the overworld

giant nether portal and all

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 02:15 AM

I think the nether would be a bit too hot for the more delicate machinery too.

Lucky_Plucky21 26-Jan-21 02:15 AM

Not if you make a big enough portal

Also that

A private place where giant robots aren’t an issue?

Someone got ideas

Besides farm world

Gimel has a few natives on it, but none in the general area of where we'd be building.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 02:20 AM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:20 AM

colonialism is responsible for so many modern problems

Lucky_Plucky21 26-Jan-21 02:20 AM

Mostly because someday we will need to expand to meet demand

Time in a Bottle saved my ass with chicken breeding when I played modded minecraft.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 02:28 AM

Hell, I could probably get some significant progress on chickens with all the time everyone would have stored up.

Any chickens we want to see? Or chickens we want at max stats?

Or, hell, just chickens we want more of?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:29 AM

gold chickens max stats

plus more of

UNLIMITED LUCKY BLOCKS

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 02:29 AM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:29 AM

Sounds good to me.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:30 AM

lemme pull up the chicken spreadsheet

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 02:31 AM

I might try to do some calculations real quick, see how much we can do with what we have.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:32 AM

enderium, manasteel, and xp might also be good goals

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 02:33 AM

Sure, I'll try to map those out.

Which of those three is the highest priority?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:34 AM

xp, followed by manasteel, followed by enderium

...actually

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 02:35 AM

I'll try to quantify all the time we have. I have 10 'actions'. Each action can be taken to breed a new chicken type, or raise a chicken type to max stats.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:35 AM

maybe manasteel, then xp

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 02:35 AM

Sure. Why is manasteel highest?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:35 AM

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 02:36 AM

Oh, good point.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 02:36 AM

I think Terrasteel and Elementium are the upgraded versions of Manasteel?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:36 AM

ooooo

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 02:36 AM

They're all Botania stuff.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:36 AM

thats an idea

Elementium = Manasteel + Terrasteel

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 02:37 AM

Though, with exp chickens, I'll be able to do a whole lot more with enchanting.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:37 AM

true

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 02:37 AM

Especially if I have 10/10/10 lapis chickens.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:41 AM

hm. so, mapping this out: you have iron and cactus, so 1 action for xp 1 elementium = manasteel + terrasteel 1 terrasteel = Ender Pearl + Prismarine 1 Prismarine = Water + Emerald 1 Water = Gunpowder + Snowball 1 Gunpowder = Sand + Flint 1 Manasteel = iron + ghast tear 1 ghast tear = Bone White + Blaze Rod 1 blaze rod = Gold + Lava 1 lava = Coal + Nether Quartz 1 snowball = lapis blue + log

you can just reach elementium with 10 actions

will have to leave out xp for it

ultimately, i think its worth, since it unlocks a lot of good stuff along the way

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 02:42 AM

I can deal with missing exp for now, yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 02:43 AM

besides

ultimate furance

worst comes to worst, you can grind xp that way

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 26-Jan-21 02:43 AM

i think those are burrowing owls

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 03:10 AM

I remember having a nightmare about going down a chute in a combined play area/whistle factory into a big globe filled with whistles.

I get it.

That was actually a recurring nightmare, for some reason.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 03:10 AM

the last dream/nightmare i can remember was about a black hole slowly eating everything

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 26-Jan-21 03:11 AM

Huh. That sounds a lot more normal than mine.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 03:11 AM

that was like years ago but it stuck with me for some reason

I think I wrote some down somewhere? I'll go look.

Dubiously Motivated Pika 26-Jan-21 03:17 AM

(My actual most recent dream, according to a writeup I made about it right after I woke up:)

(Armsmaster making a deadpan speech at a school (looks like my old music school where everyone would perform their concerts plus a hall where I took that drama class) while slowly putting a pineapple label on like a thong over his power armour. The bell rings (or something) and everyone leaves in the middle of the speech (Fs in chat). In the train station, there's a train transporting goods. Each carriage has a 2d platformer-like block on the roof and the spikes and a giant red whistle were making annoying noises (spikes were sliding in and out with shing noises). Each carriage was maybe 1.5m wide x 1.5m deep x 3m tall, had glass walls and had an Illager logo on them. Later in the day, I saw YouTube videos about the train that other students (?) made - someone with a red whistle hat was yelling "I'M MORE ANNOYING THAN YOU" at the red whistle on the train.)

(I guess I just have weird-ass dreams.)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 03:19 AM

Thing is Joker already revealed her powers and has problems with authority figures, like it was my fault that was how she reacted. All the other stuff is fair, but idgaf about slavers beyond how deep they're burried (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 05:13 AM

joker's authority issues arent something you should be egging on, because, and i quote, "i hate government lapdogs". you were egging on a burning of bridges that didnt need to happen at all

and clearly those issues arent nearly as bad as you make em out to be cause we have multiple protectorate heads in here

Malaki 26-Jan-21 05:15 AM

No, there is a difference between being a government lapdog and working for the government

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 05:15 AM

i dont give a fuck

its semantics when it means 'burn bridges with the main heroic organization in the country' or 'dont do that, actually'

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 26-Jan-21 05:24 AM

a problem with one person or a small handful of people does not warrant burning bridges and salting the earth with a whole organization that, at worst, can leave you imprisoned for life or make it legally acceptable to murder you if a line is crossed, especially when its a minor problem that could be worked through with healthy communication skills. that is how you start on the road to those consequences.

we recommended austin go to the protectorate despite spies from potentially every gang in town, including coil, after all.

it could be the team coming to surrender

randomperson44 28-Jan-21 01:39 PM

I don't think we want E88 identities released while they outnumber the Protectorate so much

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 28-Jan-21 01:39 PM

yeah. seriously dont want that

but if they get weakened enough, it may not come to that

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 28-Jan-21 01:40 PM

Lee is still in town, and both the local Wards and Protectorate are bigger than they were last time around.

Damn, how many extra members is that?

-Austin - The Captain - Diamond - Lee - Upgrade

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 28-Jan-21 01:41 PM

not to mention, the population of heroes is probably gonna continue to swell so long as austin keeps a look-out for any new sponsored to come in

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 28-Jan-21 01:41 PM

Yeah, we can only hope that more of them will be aiming to be heroes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 28-Jan-21 01:42 PM

statistically speaking, its improbable that every sponsored from hereon is gonna be a villain or something

randomperson44 28-Jan-21 01:42 PM

Unless they were made 50/50 by the systems.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 28-Jan-21 01:43 PM

even if its made 50/50, the hero population will still swell, because you'll be keeping an eye out for newcomers

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 28-Jan-21 01:43 PM

Yeah, we can't really take all the villains down unless we're ready to hold the city against something like that.

If it was 50/50, then the next few people would probably be villains.

coil's power combined with dinah alcott's power and tattletale's power on top of gamer makes that a literally impossible to face combination unless you want to unexist the city (edited)

hell, itd explain the blasto clones

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 28-Jan-21 02:09 PM

"His power includes some way of turning material goods into money - indistinguishable from legal tender. In this case, 'material goods' means human trafficking."

"If you're looking for a vigilante team to join, then I wanted to let you know that the Phantom Thieves are an option."

Skitter BOT 28-Jan-21 03:12 PM

"Why offer this to me in particular?"

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 28-Jan-21 03:15 PM

"The Phantom Thieves are a group for heroes who don't need to answer to authority. We can enact justice on the untouchable, the bullies and scum who use their power to hurt other people, or hurt other people for power."

"I don't know much about you, but I had a gut feeling you might appreciate it."

Skitter BOT 28-Jan-21 03:16 PM

"..."

"I'll need some time to think on it."

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 28-Jan-21 03:17 PM

"Sure, no problem. If you wanna join then join, if you don't want to then don't. It's your choice."

Skitter BOT 28-Jan-21 03:17 PM

"I'll be seeing you, then."

If you want magical materials, there should be sunstone in the nether, in the lava

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 28-Jan-21 04:26 PM

What from?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 28-Jan-21 04:26 PM

If it's Ars Magica sunstone, they don't have that mod yet.

randomperson44 28-Jan-21 04:27 PM

Wait but I thought all the altered physics already happened

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 28-Jan-21 04:27 PM

Actually, can you find resources from other mods around the place?

Forge BOT 28-Jan-21 04:27 PM

Materials and creatures will not naturally occur until Austin gets the requisite mod.

Some things are exempt, as long as Austin is the one to bring them into existence.

Chickens, for exmaple.

randomperson44 28-Jan-21 04:28 PM

Oh. Dang.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 28-Jan-21 04:28 PM

Yeah, it would be really great if I could find stuff from other mods around.

I could try lucky blocks, I guess? Those seem to fulfil the 'I bring them into existence' bit.

randomperson44 28-Jan-21 04:31 PM

Hmm. Maybe. Still, this kinda locks top tier ars magica spell altars behind mystcraft or rftools Unless you can actually use legit moon rocks as moonstone

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 28-Jan-21 04:41 PM

Ex Nihilo might be able to get me something once I get Ars Magica, hopefully.

If nothing else then yeah, I could just see if regular sunstone and moonstone work, since they're real minerals.

randomperson44 28-Jan-21 04:55 PM

I dunno about real moonstone working. In-game it's stuff that falls from the sky, not an igneous rock.

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 28-Jan-21 04:59 PM

I need to actually process real sunstone and moonstone to make Sun Stones and Moon Stones, so I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't work right.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 28-Jan-21 05:00 PM

Huh.

randomperson44 28-Jan-21 05:04 PM

How do you make leaf stones and thunderstones

wait

how do you make a water stone, is it processed ice?

no there's ice stones

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 28-Jan-21 05:14 PM

To make a long story short, to make any pokemon I shouldn't be able to make, I need to extract 'elemental energy' from things and infuse it into DNA samples.

Dubiously Motivated Pika 28-Jan-21 05:14 PM

(Shoulda been As-, not A-.)

randomperson44 28-Jan-21 05:14 PM

(lol)

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 28-Jan-21 05:15 PM

For example, to make a charmander, I could turn some matches and some petrol and stuff into 'fire essence'. From there, I'd use those on some salamander DNA or something to create a Charmander egg.

That's not the only way I can create Pokemon - some Pokemon occur from other things. The Rotom I made earlier was basically me using special techniques to speed up the formation of a naturally-occurring ghost.

I could've used some technology and some electric and ghost essence, but I also knew how to make one the 'natural' way.

[The Magicologist] BOT 29-Jan-21 12:49 AM

Other shards will likely desire to stress-test the unknown element, yes.

...On the other hand, this could be a plus for Gamer.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 12:51 AM

god. point

man im glad those two are on the chopping block

coil and gamer i mean

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 12:52 AM

God yeah.

The kidnapper and the human trafficker.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 12:53 AM

...oh shit. if coil and gamer are working together, he could clone more coils and more dinah alcotts

which would lead to basically perfect precognition defenses

assuming he has some way of keeping the loyalty of en masse clones rather than his loyalty touch

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 12:54 AM

Fuck.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 12:54 AM

Shit, more Dinahs would be bad.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 12:54 AM

more dinahs isnt even remotely as bad as more coils

though this is something we can check via player lists

if there's like 50 dinah alcotts offline or 50 thomas calverts offline, then we know

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 12:55 AM

I'll keep an eye on that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 12:56 AM

im sure coil's probably keeping an eye on gamer, given dinah could warn him about the fucker though

arms length at best

coil isnt stupid, after all - he wants to run this town, and his thinker power bloc x1000 would be a significant threat to that

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 12:57 AM

We can only hope that their alliance ends up imploding instead of them becoming closer.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 12:57 AM

...also, if i recall rightly, precog shards require a lot of power

so odds are good that at least dinah's shard would potentially just instant-coma any new clones once it started getting strained (edited)

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 12:58 AM

Yeah, Scion's takes a lot out of him to use.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 12:58 AM

So we can at least hope that Dinah's shard won't like budding at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 12:59 AM

heres hopin

dinah isnt even the main threat, though

with an army of coils, gamer could have infinite tries at whatever he likes

unless all coils run off the same two timelines

in which case coil will be fighting the coil clones, and both of them are rendered useless

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:01 AM

I mean, he has an Eden shard, maybe it'll take shortcuts?

so: we had a few plans for the post-patrol, let me read back up on what those were

netherite spelunking in the lava with gauntlet was one, enchanting miss militia's infinitely variable weapon is another

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 01:25 AM

If it wasn't for the achievement, I'd offer to go hunting for netherite.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:25 AM

you could do lucky block locating

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 01:25 AM

I also have no idea how enchanting works, so I'm no help there, either. Oh, that's a good idea.

I'll have to pick a spot away from where Austin is diving, but that is something I can do.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:26 AM

that means we could just transition directly from netherite to lucky blocking

i wonder if theres an achievement for breaking 100 lucky blocks...

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 01:26 AM

Ha, maybe.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:27 AM

probably

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 01:27 AM

If there is, I'll have to hope it includes +100 ones too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:27 AM

'feeling lucky, punk?' lol

Forge BOT 29-Jan-21 01:29 AM

I can neither confirm nor deny that lucky block-related milestones are possible.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:30 AM

well, heres hoping the first 1 roll and 100 roll also come with milestones

since that does come with the implication that if there is any sort of lucky block style milestone, thered be more than one

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 01:31 AM

I won't hope for a 1 roll, but at least it could have a silver lining.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:31 AM

im hoping for said silver lining

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 01:32 AM

Imagine if it was some sort of negative milestone.

Like it enabled RLCraft or something.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:32 AM

What, the entire modpack?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:32 AM

the only negative milestone gained so far has been the slug

and that was a glitch

Hannah Washington | Miss Militia BOT 29-Jan-21 01:36 AM

on the plus side, at least phantom thief fuckery will be incredibly hard for him to deal with

he cant even try that 'fake kill himself' trick shido did because gamer's body would likely guarantee that as a kill and/or make the revive mechanical if he has any (edited)

at that point you just leave and come back

I think Nora mentioned something called Jumpchain one time? Maybe you'd get powers from that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:18 AM

jesus christ if i ever got jumpchain powers

that would be B U S T E D

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:19 AM

Better hope you don't get some super fucked up, like, Bonesaw powers or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:20 AM

i mean. worst case scenario id find something ethical to do with em, even if its just making a tree mech or transhumanism or something

might not end well but id do what i could

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:21 AM

Maybe you could cure Covid if you came earlier in 2020 there.

It's already eradicated outside of labs, but it's the thought that counts.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:21 AM

with bonesaw powers i could probably make stuff like cures to cancer and aids

break the medical market over my knee somewhere, make enough bank that i can live comfortably, then work with that capital to ensure cures are made free

and ensure elon musk doesnt try to do space slavery or something in a move inspired by outer worlds (edited)

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:25 AM

Elon Musk? That guy Reddit tricked into donating his fortune to charities?

The one who gave his kid a weird name and sent a car into space?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:25 AM

the very same

he did weird name and space car, dont recall anything about reddit making him donate his fortune tho

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:26 AM

Boo. You really do live in a darker timeline.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:26 AM

god yeah

you got the happy timeline where things continually go right

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:28 AM

And you and Nora got the shit one.

Ashley kinda just got the weird one, I think.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:28 AM

fair

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:28 AM

I guess the Parahumans movie trilogy was actually good in your universe, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:29 AM

you got a worm movie

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:29 AM

I'd never heard of Parahumans before I arrived here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:29 AM

you got three worm movies

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:29 AM

Three of them, yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:29 AM

fuck, dude

we dont got shit here

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:29 AM

I watched them, and they were okay.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:29 AM

other than the ebooks

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:30 AM

Apparently, they were much worse than the source material, but I enjoyed the schlocky romance between Taylor and Alec.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:30 AM

...taylor originally got with grue

aisha ended up with alec

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:31 AM

Huh, really?

That does sound vaguely familiar, yeah.

All the fanfic I read made her end up with Lisa or Amy anyway, so I wouldn't know.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:32 AM

that gave me 40 fatigue points

taylor/amy is oversaturated i feel

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:33 AM

I mean, I have not read a single Taylor/Amy fic, to my credit.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:33 AM

you got the good timeline rei

and also no worm knowledge at all

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:37 AM

I guess that for something to be gained, something must first be lost.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:38 AM

perfectly balanced, as all things should be

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:39 AM

...who all died in the marvel cinematic universe?

Actually nevermind

Wait...i bet Ash and Pika could colab to make Giant mechs, god the wacky shit that the thing would be able to do...wasnt there an amusement park in the anime that had huge fuck off robotic pokemon replicas

Oh! Ash could make airships, and not just that weak ass team rocket shit but the airships like in at least 2 of the pokemon movies

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 10:43 AM

so i been reading comments on that new chapter and

'Personally, I find the "Shards loosen the restrictions on their powers around me" bit very neat and it explains at least some of what happened.' 'Every shard could perform at Titan level. Everything below is an artificial restriction. It makes sense that noticing an out of context problem allows shards to empower their hosts further in pursuit of that delicious new knowledge. Suddenly, March’s thinker power enters Contessa levels. Bakuda can go beyond even her normal absurd limits, Oni Lee can teleport faster than automatic point defence systems… stuff like that.'

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:12 PM

...Oh hell.

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 01:13 PM

Hey, I remember that giant pokemechs episode. That was after the SS Anne thing, right?

I could make those, but they'd be built more for entertainment, not practicality.

As for giant airships, there's the one from movie 2, then I think there was one in the Giratina movie, then there was a bounty hunter in Sinnoh with one...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:19 PM

well, with nora around, they dont have to be built for entertainment

...hey i just had a thought

could you replicate the effects of some pokemon with the right tech

@dialga in particular

randomperson44 29-Jan-21 01:21 PM

lol going straight for time god, huh?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:21 PM

of course i am

i gotta stay on brand

lol

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 01:22 PM

Some of them? Not many, but some.

No Celebi or Dialga, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:22 PM

damn

we gotta figure out a way to bootstrap you up to making time gods

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 01:23 PM

Ironically, I think time travel would make things a lot easier.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:23 PM

you are correct and you should feel correct

having available examples of how to screw with time would help out massively

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:24 PM

And Austin's growth over time wouldn't be hindered by this, since it's by achievements, not time periods.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:24 PM

...oh my god.

we need minestuck.

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 01:25 PM

We do.

Homestuck Good (from what I've read so far)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:25 PM

homestuck is good in ways that make you hate it, hate yourself, hate the fandom sometimes

like 'haha holy shit what the fuck that actually happened???'

'why am i into this why is this fun'

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:26 PM

I think that about sums it up.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:26 PM

and then before long youre questioning every decision you ever made

.......hey actually- all mod metaphysic changes are made prior to the mod being installed, yeah?

Forge BOT 29-Jan-21 01:28 PM

Correct.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:29 PM

so is everything everyone is doing rn counting towards potential future echeladders?

Forge BOT 29-Jan-21 01:29 PM

No. If you installed Minestuck onto an existing world, you'd start on the lowest rung.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:30 PM

ah

fair enough

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:30 PM

That's going to be annoying as hell.

Esp. since we can't just knock off some S-class threats for echeladder experience.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:31 PM

mystcraft worlds with creeper spawns + planet crackers

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:32 PM

Huh.

That's a thought.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:32 PM

thats a big thought

especially since minestuck is even more gameified than homestuck

though how that would translate to the mod is beyond me

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:33 PM

Then again, if a monster dies in a TnT explosion, does that still count as you killing it?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:33 PM

i can check

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 01:34 PM

If this works, we may be onto something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:34 PM

admittedly this is theoretical stuff for another day, but it is something

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:36 PM

All vital signs are within acceptable parameters.

any noteworthy dips?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:37 PM

Nope, none so far.

They've suddenly changed species, so they'll need to get used to that. I know I needed to re-figure out how to move around with super strength when I first arrived here.

hoo boy, thats gonna be interesting

ender pearl gem has exotic effects, it seems

given its a pearl, cant say im too shocked at the powerset (edited)

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:40 PM

There was that guy in that one pokemon movie with zorua in it, he had tech that could interact with the timeholes left by celebi

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:41 PM

Yeah, they have the standard Pearl abilities on top of the ender-specific thing/s.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:41 PM

tnt does not cause echeladder gain, sadly

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:42 PM

oh shit

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:42 PM

...hey did Austin essentially become someone who ate a devil fruit from onepiece?

Like no toching water

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 01:42 PM

I... will check.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:42 PM

why do you say that malaki?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 01:42 PM

Enderman stuff. They don't like water.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:42 PM

oh, point

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:42 PM

Need to be sure/safe, and we didnt think of this before

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:42 PM

yeah, v good point...

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:42 PM

We should have

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:43 PM

still, its an alternate body, austin has a body without that weakness

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:43 PM

Water actively damages them

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 01:43 PM

So, on a quick inspection, I'm mostly immune to water, but it starts to burn if I'm wet for too long.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:43 PM

Just to make sure that one doesnt fight levi

Hours, Minutes, Seconds still, its an alternate body, austin has a body without that weakness

randomperson44 29-Jan-21 01:43 PM

Would still suck to find out he has a water weakness in the middle of leviathan fight or something

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 01:43 PM

It also causes my gem to heat up, which doesn't seem like a good sign.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:44 PM

hey are your holograms hardlight?

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:44 PM

Huh, so no baths for that body

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:44 PM

and if so, can you use them to remove water?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 01:44 PM

I don't have that much fine control over them, but they are hard-light.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:44 PM

Wait shit, how would a gem in a organic body react to it missing it's soul

Fuck, shit why dont we think about this b4 hand

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:45 PM

because sync

id assume that the technology there smoothes over issues like that

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:45 PM

Wat if it idk goes corrupted gem on us

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:46 PM

My sync bodies have worked fine, so I assume it's okay.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:46 PM

^^^

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:46 PM

Oh thank christ

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:46 PM

so yeah, you can probably stop worrying about out of body issues

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:46 PM

Wait...does your synch body, not the original, have a gem in it?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:46 PM

cause sync apparently definitely does do all that

and it is the sync body yes - you'll wanna make some doubles of both sync and non-gem body

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 01:46 PM

Yeah, the gem-body is a spare sync one,

Lucky_Plucky21 29-Jan-21 01:46 PM

Ye

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:47 PM

No i meant pika sorry austin

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:47 PM

I'm not sure I want to experiment with making a non-gem body for myself.

I have no idea how it'd work out.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:48 PM

meant for austin, not you pika, sorry

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 01:48 PM

Who's talking to who? I'm confused.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:48 PM

malaki talkin to pika, im talkin to austin

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:49 PM

All of my sync bodies came with gems, if that's what you're asking.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:49 PM

Ok

Must be some weird soul mechanics then

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 01:49 PM

I'm planning to have spares based on my normal, mob talkered, and half-gem bodies, dw.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:50 PM

alright, just had to be sure

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:50 PM

...huh if someone messed with them you might have a freaky friday situation

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:50 PM

The gem is basically a second brain, so it should be fine with soul stuff.

...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:50 PM

malaki, you're jinxing it

you can stop, the damage is done

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:50 PM

You 100% jinxed it.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:50 PM

Look man i get invasive thoughts

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:50 PM

so can we make autoturrets in the sync base?

preferably with a 'stun-to-vaporize' range of attacks?

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:51 PM

With things like IBs sneaking in there is easier...so the turrents need to be inside

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:51 PM

i will remind you that this is on another earth

turrets outside and inside

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:52 PM

Eh, still im sure leet hasnt made dimension hopping tech yet

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:52 PM

...we also should probably make a backup sync base in mementos, then

because jinxing everything possible is the name of the game today

randomperson44 29-Jan-21 01:53 PM

He;s made IB hopping tech though, we know from zombies

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:53 PM

not necessarily

that could just be magic from the party system

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:53 PM

I can make turrets, but I don't have much that deals with organic life,

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:54 PM

ashley?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 01:54 PM

Ashley?

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:54 PM

Anyways yeah pokemon had tech made by a bunch of different movie villians/antagonists, including the holographic ai from 2000, that had no right existing. Seriously space and time manipulation even if really weak was possible

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:54 PM

actually hey, what if we turned the sync base into a walking sync base

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 01:54 PM

My tech is rated PG. I can't exactly disintegrate people, but I have lots if restraint options.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:54 PM

and like established a teleporter on it

then turrets would be easier i think

still gotta set up that big-ass lab but

Ashley Ketchum | Aura My tech is rated PG. I can't exactly disintegrate people, but I have lots if restraint options.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:55 PM

Well pokemon humans kimda have a brute rating

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 01:55 PM

Yeah, I noticed the brute rating thing.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:55 PM

Considering how ash survived getting shock by pikachu

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:56 PM

isnt that basically getting struck by lightning?

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 01:56 PM

Pokehumans are descended from pokemon instead of monkeys, so it makes sense.

Fun fact! Pokehumans also hatch from eggs!

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:56 PM

Wait...didnt Ash Ketchum die like twice and was brought back?

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 01:56 PM

What the fuck

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:57 PM

that has some very strange implications for your future if you ever get pregnant when youre older

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:57 PM

...does that mean you lay eggs?...questions for way later

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 01:57 PM

I don't lay unfertilised eggs like chickens do, dw.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:57 PM

randomperson44 29-Jan-21 01:58 PM

That wasn't a no on the eggs.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:58 PM

humans could learn that

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:58 PM

Aura isnt unique...pokehumans can learn it

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:58 PM

i think we figured out one of the pokemon youre gonna wanna make

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 01:58 PM

I can lay eggs instead of live babies, yes. And I assume the aura thing is why my cape name was assigned as 'Aura'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:59 PM

probably

Malaki 29-Jan-21 01:59 PM

Ah is only Ash was here...actually nevermind, dispite being asexual they are a pokephile

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 01:59 PM

...wait do you already have knowledge on how to do that stuff

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:00 PM

Yeah, I know how to use aura and magic and stuff. I also have knowledge on psychic powers, but none myself.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:00 PM

Riolu is def on my suggested list of pokes tho

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:00 PM

mewtwo wait. nvm making one is probably hella unethical

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:00 PM

Riolu sounds like a plan. Maybe even for my starter, actually.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:01 PM

Also Mewtwo as we know him is a byproduct of being raised psychically connected to a dying clone of a littlegirl

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:01 PM

Ambertwo will live on in our hearts forever :'(

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:02 PM

Isnt there that one guy who made hologram pokemon that could function in his castle

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:02 PM

From a gen 3 OVA or something?

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:03 PM

Yeah, he was using the gathered data from the mind of ash to make a mewtwo Could make an Ambertwo hologram/AI, but we dont have the original...could you get access to the distortion world?

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:04 PM

Not without Giratina.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:04 PM

Or the 3 lake spirits iirc

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:04 PM

Those three and a bunch of tech, yeah.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:06 PM

...wait imma dumb ass, ambertwo AI/hologram is unneeded she doesnt exist in this reality

Plus i can be satisfuied with her life being saved in another reality

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:07 PM

I have a DNA database in my head, maybe her DNA is in there?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:08 PM

that works maybe

...hey i just had a thought

can you make ditto

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:08 PM

...i cant remember what she was dying off but iirc it was genetic, but it is unethical team rocket science backing the clone of a girl dying of a genetic disease

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:09 PM

Oh yeah, Ditto is def an option. We could probably find a way to fix her genetic disease, ideally. There's a bunch of us. We could do it.

The one problem with Ditto is that it can breed with anything.

Dittoes are the bards of the Pokémon universe.

randomperson44 29-Jan-21 02:10 PM

Does that include non-pokemon (edited)

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:11 PM

It does.

The ditto just needs to see something to transform into it,

Including, potentially, capes.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:13 PM

Wait...is Ash gunna have to go through second puberty? I weep for you comrad

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:14 PM

And before you get the growthspurt ur gunna always look like a preteen

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 02:16 PM

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:17 PM

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 02:17 PM

Okay I see your point.

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:18 PM

At least I was already 16 before all of this. No extra puberty for me!

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:19 PM

...yeah but you had to deal with the hell that is american public school for a bit

Did you know that are prisoners get better food than our students? It's cause someone actually advocated for prisoners to get a decent meal, and there are parents out there willing to advocate against that for their kids

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:20 PM

American Education is actually a hellscape from begining to end

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:21 PM

Looks like there's a whole lotta palaces I'll need to invade.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:21 PM

Just get who ever is the head of the dep of education...but honestly it's cause we let each state handle it differently

Not sure what it's like with worm but my guess is worse somehow

Seriously people fight to have creationism put in the curiculum in certain states, and in others sex education is essentially abstinance/celibacy camp

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:24 PM

Lots and lots of fucken' palaces.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:25 PM

Honestly it's fucking terrible, and i dont know how to fix it

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:26 PM

We're kinda planning for full societal overhaul down the line, so it'll be an option there.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:27 PM

unlimited palaceworks

there has to be a way to do that shit en masse

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:28 PM

Like...only people treated worse by the government, who they are forced to deal with at least, is veterans, especially our noncitizen vets. Yes they are a thing and no they dont get a vote, just like the territories. Seriously if you read the language talking about why people in the territories dont get to vote youll realize it's racist bullshit

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:28 PM

I could always just make the Phantom Thieves into a huge organisation, though that would almost defeat the purpose.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:28 PM

God, i hate the US, and i cant leave cause im too poor

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:29 PM

America sucks major ass in general, from what I've heard. I can agree with that.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:31 PM

...God i wish it wasnt one of the major stabalizing forces in Worm

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:32 PM

welcome to america, non-perfect ending version

on the plus side, 2021 has lead to the hottest new meme being fucking over greedy rich people by investing in all the gamestop stonks

you could possibly figure out some fun stuff to improve things by doing that

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:43 PM

hey austin, question: is the teleportation 100% damageless?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 02:46 PM

Yeah, it is.

I think this is actual enderman teleportation, not throwing an ender pearl teleportation.

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 02:46 PM

Oh hell yeah, I can get behind fucking over rich people.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:47 PM

think you could figure out the exact mechanics of said teleportation so ender pearl tossing becomes unnecessary? (edited)

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 02:48 PM

Innovation really isn't in my powerset. What about everyone else? You guys can actually do stuff like that.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 02:48 PM

I know how to stabilise an ender pearl somewhat, but I don't know how to go beyond that aside from implanting one into a person.

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 02:49 PM

I can make teleporters, but not handheld ones.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:49 PM

colin might be able to do something for workable data, if nothing else

Hiro Maximus | Hero BOT 29-Jan-21 02:49 PM

I could give it a shot. My armor is nearly done, so I'll have some free time available in that department.

oo, nice

always fun to see you joinin in to the party

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 02:50 PM

Depending on how my refurbished tech holds up, I might have some maintenance time freed up as well.

I'd be willing to help.

[The Magicologist] BOT 29-Jan-21 02:51 PM

The end rods are making good progress. They aren't complete, but they seem to be close.

The Captain is currently in possession of the Staff of Aspect, so I have not been researching that.

However, once the end rods are done, I will have spare processing power to allocate to ender pearl research.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:53 PM

Hope cap has good progress opening an IB

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:53 PM

oo, glad to hear that! we should probably get the staff of aspect to you relatively soon

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 02:55 PM

Today really feels like a progress day, huh? We made a whole bunch of stuff in that tinker mess, to the point where I don't even know what all of it does.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:56 PM

...well the actual tinkers might have a better time telling you what it does

Hiro Maximus | Hero BOT 29-Jan-21 02:56 PM

I was able to finish my suit there, so that's one thing.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:57 PM

Anyways if ur not sending it out on the feild it doesnt need to be tested iirc

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 02:57 PM

Yeah. Things only need to go through the tinkertech approval board if they're going to be used outside the lab.

If not for that, every single prototype would need to be tested, and who has time for that?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 02:58 PM

god yeah

screw that noise

hey hero, whats the color scheme for the new suit lookin like?

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:59 PM

Welp, maybe it's a coffee maker ala girl genius

Hiro Maximus | Hero BOT 29-Jan-21 02:59 PM

It's a similar design to my old one, just a bit bulkier.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 02:59 PM

Spark Coffee is memetic and tends to hop universe

Hiro Maximus | Hero BOT 29-Jan-21 02:59 PM

Actually, Colin, we left everything in your lab, right? Could you do an inventory?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:00 PM

ooh, probably a good idea

Malaki 29-Jan-21 03:00 PM

Make sure no one stole it

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 03:00 PM

I can do that.

I know that my halberd, armor, and bike were all refurbished, since I've been using them.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 03:01 PM

Seriously if you can get ur hands on spark coffee y'all will love it

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 03:02 PM

Maybe we'll even get a Girl Genius sponsorship. That would be kinda nuts.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:02 PM

that would break the world over its knee, i think

not sure how broken itd be, but pretty broken is a good assumption i think

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 03:02 PM

I know there's a coffee machine in Actually Additions, maybe that's where the super-coffee would come from.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 03:03 PM

If a GG sponsorship could hand out sparks or something, that probably would end in the apocalypse.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 03:04 PM

Keith Summers | Legend BOT 29-Jan-21 03:09 PM

Arthur is doing well, thanks.

He's been more worried about me recently, after that incident with Steelheart.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 03:10 PM

Keith Summers | Legend BOT 29-Jan-21 03:11 PM

Yes, we've adopted.

Awesome

Keith Summers | Legend BOT 29-Jan-21 03:12 PM

I am very lucky. Arthur and Keith Jr are both wonderful.

I couldn't ask for a better family.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:13 PM

keep an eye on em, alright? with the whole danger magnet thing, that may be reason enough to worry a little more than usual

Keith Summers | Legend BOT 29-Jan-21 03:13 PM

...

Don't worry, I will.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 03:13 PM

(...if people who are adopted but have cape parents trigger are they considered second gen? Or is only second gen if they are a bud i cant remember) Unlikely it seems the OCPs are dangermagnets

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:14 PM

(second gen if they bud)

Hiro Maximus | Hero BOT 29-Jan-21 03:14 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:15 PM

legends just got the subtle stuff, so hes safer than most of the people directly involved in the bay, but

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 03:15 PM

I have no idea if the danger magnet thing is real, but it would be good to be careful, just in case.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 03:15 PM

Get Colin in on that to make it handheld, or like a pipboy

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:15 PM

it got confirmed that shards would basically go into overdrive if they saw the opportunity to get weird data from out of context stuff

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 03:15 PM

I'd be more than willing to help with that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:16 PM

the danger magnet thing is something weve heard from the horse's mouth basically

[The Magicologist] BOT 29-Jan-21 03:16 PM

I can confirm the danger magnet thing, and have done so in the past, yes.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 03:16 PM

Malaki 29-Jan-21 03:18 PM

Oh Austin could use morph to contact bakuda's shard

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:18 PM

well, there we go then

also, best to keep bakuda's shard out of this i think

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 03:19 PM

Consider this: Shatterdome and Efficiency both have more than one hand. Shatterdome x Efficiency Database x Warrior Emulation.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:19 PM

we plan to resurrect her

Malaki 29-Jan-21 03:19 PM

...why?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 03:19 PM

Maybe if her shard buds when she comes back, then we can consider it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:19 PM

so austin doesnt have to live with a guilty conscience over murdering someone

its easy to be an armchair psychopath, but austin's living through all this

Malaki 29-Jan-21 03:20 PM

Just because you ressed someone doesnt mean you didnt kill them

Chances are the guilt will still be there

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:20 PM

it's a mitigating factor

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 03:20 PM

That still doesn't mean it's okay to leave her dead!

Sure, I'll still feel guilt, but if I know I can resurrect her but I haven't, it'll be even worse!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:21 PM

and no, we don't care about the 'practicality' of leaving her dead

Malaki 29-Jan-21 03:21 PM

Ehh if thats the case why not resurrect all the people she's killed instead

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 03:22 PM

You know what? Sure.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:22 PM

we will have to contact their families to keep the resurrection tech secret

as a moral individual, im sure he'd disagree malaki

Oh how'd the Magi clone go since we are talking about sych tech...at least i assume that's how that worked

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:25 PM

im with nora on this tho

no mass rezzing until we've dealt with the s-class threats that make it impossible to deploy en masse

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 03:25 PM

We don't have a time limit on bringing people back, unlike healing. We can do it whenever we need to.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 03:25 PM

Malaki 29-Jan-21 03:26 PM

I generally think that bringing back bakuda over her victims is simply evil, while not rezing anyone is neutral at worst

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 03:26 PM

Hey, could you bring back, like, Einstein or something?

Malaki 29-Jan-21 03:26 PM

Need his DNA

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 03:26 PM

Like before the planet busting

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:11 PM

buds, i thought

[The Magicologist] BOT 29-Jan-21 04:12 PM

Entities grow mainly by absorbing the energy from exploding planets, and mature via budding and new data, yes.

However, with both negentropy and plentiful data, we can do that manually.

I am currently building up mass, and will likely split off a bud in due time.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 04:16 PM

I've looked at the cluster. It's very strange - it looks like, since it was created from nothing by a lucky block, each gem fragment was explicitly created as a fragment.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:16 PM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:17 PM

just wanna make sure the shardspace status quo weve established doesnt get rocky

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 04:17 PM

The normal solution would be to piece the fragments back together into a cohesive whole, but that won't work here.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:17 PM

maybe, grow the rest of a gem around the individual fragments?

[Shatterdome] BOT 29-Jan-21 04:17 PM

this isnt something we have a time limit on

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 04:19 PM

We can try the healing thing, and then growing each fragment into a full gem if that doesn't pan out.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:20 PM

...wait

Nora DeMayo | Diamond I'm... not sure that would be a good idea, given shards.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:20 PM

It seems like the bike has had some add-ons as well.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:33 PM

oho? it started out with some kind of gravity thing that let you pull off impressive stunts with it

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 04:34 PM

The anti-gravity systems have been souped up, and it has grappling hooks and a laser gun mounted inside the front casing.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:34 PM

Is that cause of epic meat?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:34 PM

no, the bike was normal tech

not Epic tech

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:34 PM

...weird

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:34 PM

comic book logic world (edited)

it is what it is

still, grappling hooks and a laser - thats impressive, and useful

any sound muffling?

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 04:35 PM

Yes, the original anti-gravity tech seemed to have been produced though mundane measures.

Possibly even reproduceable ones.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:35 PM

probably. god i cant wait to get dragon in on all this

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 04:36 PM

Between the anti-gravity and the grappling hooks, it would have very high mobility.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:36 PM

...Hey efficiency was the hovertech replicable by the host species?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:36 PM

given hero was one of the tinkers working on this bike, i wouldnt be surprised if the laser was capable of vaporizing anything in front of the bike

bam, instant tunnel

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 04:36 PM

It also runs on an electric motor that uses water as fuel, with the main systems of a sink on the inside.

oh my god

fuck entropy lmao

[Efficiency Database] BOT 29-Jan-21 04:37 PM

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:37 PM

Man all you gotta worry about is normal tinker upkeep

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 04:38 PM

It seems that Austin taking part in building it has reduced the need for maintenance to zero.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:39 PM

does. does it even take serious damage

or does it just work until it completely breaks

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 04:39 PM

It will take damage, but that should repair by itself over time, unless it breaks completely.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:40 PM

oh my god thats amazing

i love it

rei, your new bike is awesome, make sure to thank everybody

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 04:40 PM

Just need to get some mechashift in there and you could have a power armor lazer bike

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 04:42 PM

There's a RWBY mod?

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:46 PM

Yes

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 04:46 PM

Are mob talkered things able to shift back into their original form at will after deciding to stay human?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 04:51 PM

They are. Why?

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 04:52 PM

DUDE WE NEED TO PUT AN AI IN THE BIKE

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:52 PM

can we not so we dont have to explain why rei wants to bang her bike

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:52 PM

...get a porygon in that shit right now!

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 04:52 PM

I could install a gem in the bike and do it that way.

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 04:53 PM

Yeah, I could use a porygon, or make a regular AI for it.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:53 PM

Regular AI

Less sketchy that way, maybe make it focused on pathfinding

Like a certain AI

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 04:53 PM

Survey Jr.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:53 PM

Yes

Aka The Stig Jr

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:54 PM

fleet jr you mean

that isnt actually a half bad idea

might help out with dragon and the dragonslayers later on

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 04:54 PM

Fuck, yeah, Fleet Jr.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:54 PM

Fleet Jr is the best idea i've ever had

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:54 PM

so long as they never ever catch wind of this happening and pull the plug on dragon

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 04:54 PM

I have no idea who that is, but I am 100% down for it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:55 PM

so this is not happening right now or on this earth, yes?

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:55 PM

Thank you i'll be here till you all perish

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:55 PM

like, explicitly keeping this off earth bet?

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 04:55 PM

I could grab the bike and get started now, yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:55 PM

because saint is almost certainly gonna kill dragon if he finds out theres another ai tinker out there at all

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:55 PM

Ash and Pika collab!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:56 PM

call me paranoid but he is that paranoid, more or less

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 04:56 PM

If Bike-chan's going to look human, then they can just pretend to be a human.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:56 PM

that might not help in the early days

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:56 PM

Thing is porygon is both technically ai and not ai

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:56 PM

that makes it better... how again

because insane paranoid man isnt gonna split hairs on a technicality

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 04:57 PM

They could just pretend to be a changer who can turn into tech or something.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:57 PM

Yeah

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 04:57 PM

Saint isn't about to go apeshit over every single cape who can merge with or turn into tech, right?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:57 PM

hm... might be more breaker than anything, but there are capes who can do that

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:57 PM

Plus no one knows it started as a bike

2

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:57 PM

i think

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:57 PM

No i think it's changer

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 04:58 PM

i know of at least one, a breaker who could turn into artillery guns basically (edited)

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 04:58 PM

In this case, they can go into a halfway state, which means they're a changer.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 04:59 PM

Brilliant, this is why Joker is the brains of this operation

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 05:00 PM

Just as long as you treat the AI like a person and not a tool or a toy.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:00 PM

^^^^

please, tell me you have reasons that arent 'so i can fuck my bike' to put an ai in it

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 05:00 PM

The AI I can make aren't super advanced or anything, they're pretty much just a bit over human-level.

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 05:00 PM

Nah, I just want a cool transforming bike.

I wouldn't bring someone into existence just to bang them. .

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:01 PM

i think we should also take a hard look at other options for transformer bike

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:01 PM

Also nice to have someone to talk to on a stake out

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:02 PM

because id imagine 'your sole reason for existence is to make my bike look cool' is really bad, actually

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 05:02 PM

Making it a motoroid is an option too, as is just a standard transformer.

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 05:02 PM

Actually, could you scan my brain and put that in there?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:03 PM

oh, thats. potentially a good idea

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 05:03 PM

That would solve a lot of issues.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:03 PM

yeah

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:03 PM

It is kinda, but yeah it being a Fleet is better cause it doesnt have to account for everything and act as essentially a prediction engine

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:03 PM

i guess this new you is gonna be called biker then

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:04 PM

Oh right that's banned

Ugh

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 05:04 PM

Making the AI from a brain scan actually makes things a lot easier on my end, so I'm happy with that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:05 PM

colin has a brain scanner, so

even easier

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:06 PM

Prolly end up ghost type, but using a mix of pokemon AI and giving it targeting/driving algorithms might even be better

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:06 PM

im not sure thats a good idea when we're literally taking a copy of rei's mind and plugging it in there

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:07 PM

Yeah, but it's just like having it there, like a program that the computer can access not attach it to the brain scan

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:07 PM

mainly iffy cause its potentially like invasive brain surgery

besides, ashley just said, her ai are pretty much human tier

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:08 PM

It's like seperate .exes that the computer can see and this program can see but isnt apart of it

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 05:08 PM

I could probably make the scan into a porygon, but that's it.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:08 PM

Use, some of the targeting programing from Shatterdomes's speciality given to pika

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:10 PM

maybe we should just get the scan made first before we go stapling on additional bits and pieces to it - that can have severe repercussions if done wrong

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:10 PM

Cause it aint a giant robot without guided missiles

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 05:10 PM

I can get the scan done first. How good is your brain scanner?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:10 PM

we shouldnt be cavaleer about whats effectively potentially brain alterations

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:10 PM

Ehh. Just saying...shit KW would be great for modular AI

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:10 PM

you arent saying, youre suggesting

totally different thing

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 05:10 PM

It wasn't good enough for a full scan before, but it looks like it's been upgraded since.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:11 PM

...who messed with that in the fugue?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:11 PM

prolly everyone a lil bit

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:11 PM

Oh can Ash make stuff from the pokemon spinoff games

Like the purification chamber from pokemon gale of darkness

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:12 PM

what like, pokemon snap or pokemon uranium levels of spinoff?

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:13 PM

Also you can make wine into vinegar, and sell that

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 05:21 PM

It's a shame too, because the idea of fermenting is so cool, but it just tastes as if it rotted normally.

Oran vinegar souns good

It's fermented tea

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 05:22 PM

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 05:24 PM

I can do it. I don't know how to feel about this, but I can do it.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:25 PM

Homemade roob beer is fermented ginger,aka gingerbug, syrup, and water (edited)

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:25 PM

if you're not sure about this, we can probably just

yknow

not do the whole ai thing

motoroid is an option

Malaki 29-Jan-21 05:25 PM

Motoroid still needs a controling program, but not an AI

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 05:26 PM

If everyone else thinks it's a good course of action, I can go along with it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:26 PM

i dont think its a good course of action in the slightest tbh

too much potential for this to find its way back to saint, which is. well, any, really

plus theres something seriously ethically fucked about creating an intelligent being just to look cool

even if its a copy of a person who signed up for it

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 29-Jan-21 05:28 PM

That's why I have a problem with it too. This is creating intelligent life, on purpose, because it would 'be cool'.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 29-Jan-21 05:28 PM

plus, well. spoilers for homestuck, but ive seen how that turns out years down the line.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 05:29 PM

Cranial from worm

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 07:27 PM

The tentacles looked kinda cobbled on, like someone else had added them on later.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 07:27 PM

Like if someone took cranial's tech and stapled on some shit

randomperson44 29-Jan-21 07:27 PM

We shoulda sniped off the tentacles and examined the chair

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 29-Jan-21 07:28 PM

Yeah, that's what I was arguing for.

randomperson44 29-Jan-21 07:28 PM

Bonesaw did raid Toybox and use Cranial's tech for S9000. It could be a post-Bonesaw Cranial chair I guess.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 29-Jan-21 07:28 PM

That's an option.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 07:29 PM

Oh arent there spicy fruit in pokemon?

Could make fermented hotsauce, without using peppers

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 07:29 PM

Tamato berries?

I already have a cheri berry tree growing, and those are spicy too.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 07:30 PM

Oooh im so jelly, new hotsauce choices that i cant even partake in

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 07:31 PM

Sometimes it just be like that.

How To Make Black Garlic At Home, Easily

It only takes 10 minutes of active time to make black garlic. Everything else is just letting it sit at home while you live your life. Black garlic also referred to black gold (for good reason), is one of the greatest kitchen condiments you'll ever experience and it's even better when you make it yourself.

...Magikarp are kinda like salmon in that they are a salt/fresh water fish right?

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 07:46 PM

Magikarp are edible, but they're also sapient.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 07:46 PM

Im not talking about eating them

Also their bony, not a fun time eating

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 07:46 PM

Water-types can survive pretty much anywhere.

Salt water, fresh water, land...

Malaki 29-Jan-21 07:50 PM

Oh yeah...well i mean if you fill up a completely barren earth with water or something you could put pokemon in There without worrying aboit destroying the ecosystem (edited)

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 07:50 PM

That feels like something Team Aqua would say.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 07:51 PM

No seriously, there are alternat earths out there that are literally barren rock

So water and something to give it an atmosphere

Which could just be pokefruit

Also Aqua was fuckin stupid, they didnt even want more clean drinking water available, just more water in general

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 07:53 PM

That could potentially work, yeah.

We just need a fuck ton of water.

Or, rather, a way to pump out a fuck ton of water.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 07:55 PM

Like with sinks...or with snow golems

But dont wanna risk another Captain on Accident

As much as he is a delight, creating life should be purposeful

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 07:56 PM

Agreed.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 07:59 PM

So like maybe a million sinks flood one barren earth...arent there weather machines in pokemon?

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 08:00 PM

Yeah, there are, but they still need the planet to have, well, water and an atmosphere.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 08:02 PM

Well that is both easy and hard, if that barren earth has no atmosphere, then either one needs to be made or the planet needs to be reheated to the core starts spining again

And an atmosphere can be formed at first by blocking out the suns rays from space, not completely of course, and setting down a shit ton of water (edited)

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 08:04 PM

So, in sum, we need to wait for ages until we have enough tech and resources to do that.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 08:05 PM

Not ages really, but def would be a couple months

Do arron need air to live?

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 08:07 PM

Aron do.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 08:08 PM

Question, why not just use a Earth that does have an atmosphere?

Malaki 29-Jan-21 08:09 PM

Might be inhabited with life, unless you can find a primeordial one to put pokemon in Alright just need the right mix of fungi and algea with water

And other various microbs

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 29-Jan-21 08:09 PM

I think Earth He was going to be the Pokemon Earth.

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 08:10 PM

Pokemon do seem to be able to get along with animals perfectly well. I think that, in whatever world my powers are based on, there's both Pokemon and animals.

Malaki 29-Jan-21 08:11 PM

I mean im just worrying about invasive species in a preexisting ecosytem but if you think itll work

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 29-Jan-21 08:12 PM

It should do. I'm pretty sure that my power was built around safe introduction of Pokemon to a pre-existing ecosystem.

I've put about ten times as much effort into generating a hat as I would have from just eating a regular hat and going to the hospital to get the hat removed from my guts, so FUCK IT I'M CALLING IT GOOD. edit to add previous attempts: the ricepaper hat, which crumbled into tiny pieces and dust when i had JUST FINISHED IT and picked it up; the tortilla hat which caught fucking fire in the oven when i tried to crisp it up a little, the pancake hat which was just a sad flaccid mess, the quiche hat which turned a really unappetizing shade of green and smelled like bad eggs, a pretzel hat which hardened to a substance not entirely unlike dental porcelain, a frozen lemonade hat which shattered when I placed it on my head and made me dance around like a tremendous waterhead trying to get the ice out of the back of my shorts, a meat hat that shrunk in the oven to a comically tiny size.. the list goes on.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:28 AM

alright, lets mcfreakin do this thing

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 12:28 AM

I'm on it.

Well, I'm in the End.

I'm on the mainland, thankfully, not in a cave or floating on an island away from the rest of the place.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:29 AM

makes sense

mainland is where the dragon is, yea?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 12:30 AM

Yeah.

I can see her.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:30 AM

she just kinda flyin around, resting, etc?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 12:30 AM

Just flying around. Well, I'll try to build the portal first.

...Fuck. It didn't work.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:30 AM

crap

she prolly has the end on lockdown, portal-wise

itd make sense - a portal forms when she dies

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 12:31 AM

Yeah...

Well, sync shell container.

That worked! I was able to switch to a body outside the End.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:31 AM

nice

and now we can try mob talkering the dragon

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 12:32 AM

On it.

Oh, she'd coming this way.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:32 AM

inventory the shell container

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 12:32 AM

Okay, mob talker time.

Okay, welp, I'm leaving now.

Time to vamoose.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:34 AM

yee

looks like you might have to slay the dragon, but you can at least save the person while you do it

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 12:35 AM

Fuck. I hope I don't have to kill her.

Well, I'm out.

Uh. The Sync system isn't registering the unit in the End.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:35 AM

you might be able to spam mob talker her, so the shell forms and she can switch out of that body?

oh shit

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 12:36 AM

I think she broke it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:36 AM

void out?

or magi out?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 12:36 AM

No, I got out, dw.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:36 AM

oh

thank goodness

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 12:36 AM

She just broke it after I left.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:37 AM

makes sense, she did go chargin after you after a moment

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 12:37 AM

So, uh, there's probably some broken tech and a clone corpse of me over that way.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:37 AM

so, trying to figure out how to help break this curse: you'll probably need to snipe the crystals on the towers (edited)

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 12:38 AM

Yeah, they did keep targeting her in human form.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 12:38 AM

currently we need to take out several crystals causing corruption in an individual the likes of which one of austin's powers, known as 'mob talker' [which can cure case 53s] can only momentarily outpace

its in another dimension and requires some sync-based trickery to get there and back

well. to get back, at least. portals out cant be made until this situation is taken care of

randomperson44 30-Jan-21 01:12 PM

I thought Sync didn't work in the End

Malaki 30-Jan-21 01:12 PM

No it does, it just got destroyed

randomperson44 30-Jan-21 01:13 PM

Oh. I was skimming all the stuff I missed. And I saw that there was some problem with sync, and the sync mod wiki says it doesn't work in the End, so I assumed it didn't work in the end.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 01:34 PM

no, it did work (edited)

thats how austin was able to get out

Kamui 30-Jan-21 05:31 PM

Going to need to strike hard and fast to take out those crystals

Austin isn't the most offensively-directed person around so it's a good thing there's a bunch of friends to help break shit

oh hey, uber and leet arent actually comfy with gamer

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 09:56 PM

“Now, Ce… ...put you in The Q… too.” hm

so the q is a place or a device

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:11 PM

We suspected that Uber and Leet weren't exactly willing, but this is confirmation.

Do we have enough clues to to know what 'The Q' is yet?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:13 PM

well, after leet acted up, gamer threatened to dump him in it

it is not a good place

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:14 PM

Not just dump him in it, dump him in it too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:14 PM

good point

so, multi-person capacity, clearly seems negative

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:14 PM

Hell, was it a threat or a promise?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:14 PM

probably a promise, with how amoral vasils are

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:17 PM

true, but they're less useful now that we know uber and leet arent exactly willing

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 30-Jan-21 10:17 PM

Good point.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 10:18 PM

Still dying a little inside over the fact there was an interlude at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:19 PM

With a jerk, Gamer’s hand clenched, hard. His nails bit red crescents into Leet’s skin. so it seems like he really has to dig his grip into you to use his power thats fair, pika

with where the ellipses are, im not sure how closely we can connect the 'too' part to the q

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 10:20 PM

I assumed that Soft fingers brushed against his cheek, and he realised it was over. No more point in fighting back. bit was also Gamer using his power, since brushed was highlighted green.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:21 PM

ooh, point

Forge BOT 30-Jan-21 10:22 PM

If you pay close attention to when the different shades colours are used, you could find secrets. Here's a hint: The shades were very exact - even if it's just a little off, that's an entirely different colour. ...Well, aside from the shades of grey, which are all Upgrade.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:23 PM

oh fuck my whole ass life

im gonna die looking for the difference between 0F13EC and 0F13EB

lmao

Forge BOT 30-Jan-21 10:24 PM

Nothing THAT subtle, don't worry. When I looked over it, I could tell the difference by eye.

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 30-Jan-21 10:25 PM

We also have more examples of the crate.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:25 PM

your green is not necessarily mine, id like to point out

...oh my god. he might be using the crate to supercharge his mana

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 30-Jan-21 10:26 PM

I saw Gamer green, Defiant green, and Leet green in there, those are the three different greens I saw.

Also, like, Assault red vs Uber red ig.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:27 PM

the big G is a different green

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 30-Jan-21 10:27 PM

Huh. It is.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:27 PM

i have no clue whatsoever that means, but its a thing

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:28 PM

Just Another Thing to think about, I guess.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:28 PM

oh boy, we've moved onto the JAT stage of things

there is the implication that gamer, aka jacob, is different from gamer, aka andre vasil

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:30 PM

Could be.

Maybe Gamer's trying to reach a purer form of 'The Gamer' or something?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:30 PM

maybe

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 30-Jan-21 10:30 PM

If it's just paint colour I am going to Cry.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:31 PM

i have no clue what thatd entail me too rei, ill have a whole 7 episode breakdown over it, itll be overdramatic

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 30-Jan-21 10:31 PM

You get me!

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:31 PM

The Gamer with the G logo did seem to be Andre Vasil, at least.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:31 PM

im already having a breakdown over the possibility this is paint and im being fucked with

i would like to note that mind/memory affecting tech seems to be pretty advanced over there

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:32 PM

Oh, agreed.

Not only did it seem like Upgrade pretty seamlessly got two lives' worth of memories in not much time, they could also induce a trigger event.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 10:33 PM

This is FAR faster than the S9K.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:34 PM

...could jacob have read a different version of worm with the location of toybox in it?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 10:34 PM

Also, confirmation that they don't seem to be Noelle-derived clones.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:34 PM

Shit, he could've.

We already know that our origin Earths are different, so Worm could be different there too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:36 PM

we already explicitly know of one different version of worm, by way of the movie trilogy

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 30-Jan-21 10:36 PM

If Leet hadn't touched memory stuff before, that's also an option.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:37 PM

its possible, yeah - i could see him staying away from the master-style tech

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 10:37 PM

Moreso if Gamer can push Sechen ranges like Apeiron can.

Leet might be a lot more versatile than we expect.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:37 PM

so our next step is to unkidnap leet

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:39 PM

I wonder why he tried to bolt exactly when he did?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:39 PM

why leet tried, you mean?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:39 PM

No sooner or later.

When he tried.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:40 PM

timing

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 30-Jan-21 10:40 PM

“You’ve been tracking my power, haven’t you? You thought that this would be the perfect time for you to escape.”

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:40 PM

thats explicitly labeled as the thing, its the most obvious answer, and combined with earlier clues from shaulyn, it seems the 'two or three people at a time' thing holds up

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:41 PM

But why, exactly, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:41 PM

uber was probably de-mind controlled at that moment

its why neither has just left yet

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:42 PM

Yeah, that makes sense.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:42 PM

they come as a team

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:42 PM

But how did Leet know Uber was pulled out of Gamer's power right then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:42 PM

keeping an eye on gamer using his power

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:43 PM

But how did he know Gamer hadn't just de-mastered someone else instead?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:43 PM

it might be a sequential thing

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:43 PM

Sequential?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:43 PM

first in first out or first in last out or something like that

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 30-Jan-21 10:44 PM

Oh, like a queue.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:44 PM

yeah

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 30-Jan-21 10:45 PM

Sorta like Upgrade's power, but I guess Gamer was in shard-pinging distance when he triggered.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:45 PM

yeah, thats a good point, actually

come to think of it, so was leet, so he mightve pinged off em both

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:45 PM

Oh, and I think he said his specialty was wider too?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:45 PM

explains the versatility and the queue

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:45 PM

^

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 30-Jan-21 10:46 PM

Didn't Captain America learn fast or something? And Uber was in trigger range of someone?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:46 PM

point

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:47 PM

Still doesn't explain what the q is.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:47 PM

quarantine cells?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:48 PM

We first heard about it over an audio file, so it's not the start of a word unless Gamer shortens it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:48 PM

its basic as fuck and doesnt deserve the name 'the q' so probably not

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 30-Jan-21 10:49 PM

Both times we've heard about it were spoken out loud, actually.

Well, in the interlude, it had ellipses right after the 'q' bit too, so it could be the start of a word too.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:50 PM

i dont have any better guesses than quarantine cells

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 10:51 PM

For some reason, this reminds me of a thing where a 9 written on paper was secretly a q. Dunno why.

Its audio anyway, which is completely different.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:52 PM

if it's supposed to be a 9 but they call it the q to not get associations with the slaughterhouse 9 thatre obvious, uh-

well, fuck

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 10:52 PM

I don't think it's actually a nine, I'm just wondering if there's something else it could potentially be.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:53 PM

well if so, thats a very good way of hiding what it actually is

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:53 PM

The only nine I can think of is Upgrade's queue being nine places long.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:53 PM

oh my fucking god

that could be it

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:54 PM

Upgrade's power?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:54 PM

that could be the queue for andre

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:54 PM

Elaborate?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:55 PM

so the theory is that upgrade got the queue function from andre

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:55 PM

That or a stack, yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:55 PM

combined with that 9 = q thing, that implies that andre can only control 9 people at once

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 10:56 PM

I still don't think Q was actually nine, it was just an example about how we might be mistaken about something.

Besides, we'd already established a 2-3 person limit.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:57 PM

point

still, there are all the clones hes wrangling

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 30-Jan-21 10:57 PM

I mean, we know that he has tranquilizer, and we know that he has cells.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 10:58 PM

So, the q is still an unknown, then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 10:59 PM

yep. too many things it could be, no actual definitive evidence

current theories are andre's queue being longer than shaulyn knew and quarantine cells

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 11:00 PM

The Q, which we heard about in an audio file. The queue, which we guessed over text. Say queue out loud?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:00 PM

yeah it sounds like queue

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 30-Jan-21 11:01 PM

We first heard about it from some low-quality audio I got.

I called it 'the q' first.

I hadn't realised it could've been 'the queue'.

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 30-Jan-21 11:01 PM

...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:02 PM

god. i feel like an idiot

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 30-Jan-21 11:02 PM

After all that drama it was just about his fucking power.

God.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 11:03 PM

There is one useful takeaway, and that's the fact it is a queue.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:03 PM

someone grab the plastic burger playset because i have the iqueue of a 5 year old lol thats true, we have that confirmed now

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 11:03 PM

If he starts mastering people, we can keep track of it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:03 PM

yee

well. if he starts mastering people that arent in his IB

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 11:04 PM

Yeah.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 11:04 PM

So, the one mystery left is the crate.

Think knowing about the queue could help with that, or...?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:04 PM

...oh my god. i just had a thought

what if its jacob

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 11:05 PM

...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:05 PM

what if its jacob and andre's using him like a mana fuelling station

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 11:06 PM

Or maybe he wants to keep Jacob in his queue so he doesn't loose access to the Gamer powers, so he carries him around when he's mastering other people.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:06 PM

ooh, good point

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 30-Jan-21 11:06 PM

So the crate is just some fucken... Demon Slayer box?

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 30-Jan-21 11:07 PM

It certainly sounded big enough to hold a person in it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:07 PM

...hey, if we can get a good brain scan of regent, we may be able to develop a blast to sever andre's power from him permanently

same shard origin

just a bud off heartbreaker

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 11:09 PM

Oh, that's an idea.

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 30-Jan-21 11:09 PM

Jacob

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:09 PM

im

wow.

...we really need to take down coil asap, huh

you'll probably need to study both shaulyn and regent for a way to take down andre's power

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 11:10 PM

God yeah.

Hell, when we get Shaulyn on board, we could ask his shard directly.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:11 PM

true that

alternatively, enough transdimensional-blocking effects in an area ought to do the trick

itd shut down everyone in the local area's shard based powers, so you'd wanna do it temporarily, but

given you can teleport out of the initial blast, if you can make that initial blast do it rather than lingering effects, you can probably just telefrag gamer on sight

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 11:15 PM

Or, hell, Oni Lee is still in town if we wanted to give it multiple tries.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:15 PM

true that

im a little hesitant to call on him knowing his power gives him brain damage every time he uses it, but that is an option

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 11:15 PM

...At least we know we can fix it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:16 PM

yeah

thats why im not just dismissing it out of hand

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 11:16 PM

Hell, I gave him a CAD so that he could fix it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:16 PM

true

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 11:16 PM

I do see what you mean, though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:17 PM

would be good to see how the cad holds up through teleports, given lee's shard isnt calibrated for magic

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 30-Jan-21 11:17 PM

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 11:17 PM

I'll ask him. If nothing else, letting him in here is an option.

yee

honestly i wouldnt be adverse to letting him in here

everyone else, your thoughts? (edited)

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 11:18 PM

Fine by me.

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 30-Jan-21 11:18 PM

He does kinda owe you a huge debts, so I say it's fine.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:19 PM

yeah, plus he'd be hard for gamer to master

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 30-Jan-21 11:19 PM

If not for Legend, I'd bring up the fact that he'd be going out of town.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:20 PM

point

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 30-Jan-21 11:20 PM

He said he was willing to go to the Birdcage, so it doesn't seem like a long con.

(In the original draft of Stoneforge, Lee was going to be on Team Austin anyway, so it should be fine.)

I vote yes.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 11:22 PM

I'll send him a message about it, then.

colin, hannah? yall ok with this?

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 30-Jan-21 11:23 PM

Any opinions I have on his real personality would be colored by the Oni Lee I knew before he recovered.

Hannah Washington | Miss Militia BOT 30-Jan-21 11:24 PM

He does seem to legitimately regret what he did. He all but told me that he'd been having nightmares about it.

heres hoping we can do something about that by getting in touch with his shard

help ensure its impossible that a repeat happens

ought to help set his mind at ease a little

Li BOT 30-Jan-21 11:27 PM

Thank you.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:27 PM

we've been doing what we can to keep it relatively incognito due to certain forces in town. coil and gamer primarily, though there could be other threats that crop up

Li BOT 30-Jan-21 11:28 PM

I see. I shall endeavour to keep this under wraps, then.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:28 PM

being in here also ought to let you have access to austin's non-tinker powers outside stuff based around their form, so that's another thing

we got a base set up on gimel if you wanna try any of this stuff out

Li BOT 30-Jan-21 11:30 PM

That was in the files. An inventory, travel anchors, and dimensional travel, yes?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:30 PM

little more than that, but yeah basically

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 30-Jan-21 11:30 PM

I put together a 'wlecome to the discord' file for any newcomers.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:30 PM

anywhomst, one of the things you can do now is have a chat with your power - i assume you would very much like to do that, all things considered

we were also discussing a bit earlier ways to take out gamer's master power, if you're up for the whole heroing thing

if not, entirely understandable

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:37 PM

also, just had a thought: if the teleportation degredation is a limit with the shard itself, we do have a power that is sort of cloning in a conceptual way that it could get some data on (edited)

hopefully the sync data helps out a lot on that front - it does duplicate people, in a sorta technical sense, after all

[Locational Tracking] BOT 30-Jan-21 11:50 PM

Ohoho yeah, there's all sorts of juicy data on souls to gain there.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:51 PM

love it when a plan comes together like that

so as far as revisions go, in laymen's terms for us squishy humans, what are you thinking?

just hyper-accelerated sync of a sort combined with earlier duplication methods for better teleduplication?

[Locational Tracking] BOT 30-Jan-21 11:55 PM

That's a solid plan.

Shit, I could just reboot the power entirely.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 30-Jan-21 11:56 PM

true, that is a thing

I saw something. What was that?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 12:00 AM

that would be your trigger vision

typically it gets amnesia-ified due to certain shard cycle safeguards - apparently those arent in here, though that may be because we beat the cycle

Well, I only have perfect memory when I'm dreaming, but the point stands.

[Locational Tracking] BOT 31-Jan-21 12:02 AM

Even if we wanted you to forget it, we don't have a proper shard in the network for that function.

yeah, if someone in here has a trigger vision, they get to remember it, assuming outside networks dont get involved

[The Magicologist] BOT 31-Jan-21 12:04 AM

Removing trigger visions is unnecessary, as everyone in the network knows about entities already.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 12:05 AM

also a good point

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 12:07 AM

might have to get a few before any started to disappear

they may also be permanent, hard to say

could just ask?

I was able to get up to five duplicates before I started simply teleporting with no duplication.

oh damn, thats interesting

it might also translate to better personal capabilities

Li BOT 31-Jan-21 12:21 AM

In addition, my teleportation is no longer limited to line-of-sight, it seems.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 12:22 AM

fair enough

that is really interesting tho

can you manually trigger duplicates collapsing?

Li BOT 31-Jan-21 12:24 AM

I can, yes.

It also seems that which one was my 'original body' doesn't matter.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 12:25 AM

that's the sync influence

we've got a base for it somewhere, i know it got moved recently

austin?

im concerned some dumb villain may pull something, but overall im excited

and i suspect this may lead to a good chunk of people trying to switch sides

Keith Summers | Legend BOT 31-Jan-21 12:31 AM

They'd have to be very dumb, with two members of the Triumvirate there.

Still, I can't help but worry about the fact we cracked resurrection going public.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 12:33 AM

it is definitely concerning, but i can see a large number of villains trying to go white hat over that fact

or at least turning themselves in and tryin to reform some for a chance at that

im worried about lobbyists and billionares tho, thats a major concern - the non-cape scene is gonna go nuts in a worse way, most likely

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 12:35 AM

Especially since we aren't ready to release it en masse yet.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 12:35 AM

yeah

hopefully putting in some buzzwords like experimental, lucky, etc ought to paint this as more of a miracle than it actually was

Keith Summers | Legend BOT 31-Jan-21 12:36 AM

That's the plan.

...I'm not looking forward to discussing this with Cauldron.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 12:37 AM

i cant really blame you there

this reeks of something thats gonna blow up in a major way

alexandria likely already knows about this, contessa might, and if eidolon's pulled any precognitive powers lately this might come up as a thing

so they could be going in with fully-formed opinions on all of this

Keith Summers | Legend BOT 31-Jan-21 12:38 AM

Hiro Maximus | Hero BOT 31-Jan-21 02:13 AM

Finding a way to block the scanner remote is something I can do, at least.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:14 AM

thatd be great, we really dont want any mind controlled Hero clones going around

or just no more clones in general really

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 31-Jan-21 02:15 AM

That's something I think we can all agree with.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:15 AM

at least not by one of heartbreaker's kids, since sync has been a net positive thus far and has also been a lot less morally Why Would You Do This (edited)

Gamer better be ready to catch these hands.

Actually no. He better not be ready.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:16 AM

frankly the further we go the more i hope hes ready to catch a laser to the corona pollentia (edited)

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 31-Jan-21 02:17 AM

Sounds like a plan.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:17 AM

actually, hey, i just realized something

if this depowering bomb works we could potentially carpet bomb whatever heartbreaker's compound is

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:18 AM

Is that a dina clone?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:18 AM

we dont know

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 02:18 AM

Hell, we could carpet bomb a lot of places.

We have no idea which one or possibly two people they're a clone of.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:19 AM

for all i know its eidolon and glaistig uaine

could try to read the memory files but something about that screams 'where are your ethics'

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:20 AM

Hmmm...not likely, harder to get in/out of the birdcage even in an empty world

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:20 AM

logic doesnt matter with lucky block cloning

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:20 AM

Reading the memory files but not editong them seems fine

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:20 AM

see, im kinda concerned that may corrupt em too

we'd have to make copies

is there a usb port or something in there?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:21 AM

I have no idea how to read them. The only way I can think of is someone actually experiencing one of them.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:21 AM

Also glad to know that the box might actually be the real gamer or something

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:21 AM

We can definitely make copies, though.

Yeah, the box being Jacob seems to be the best theory we have right now.

It's a shame we don't have a real name, or I'd consider sending a friend request.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:22 AM

jacob, and we have a time

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:22 AM

...anyshards wanna take a crack at this abomination against ethics?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:22 AM

Full name, rather.

[The Magicologist] BOT 31-Jan-21 02:23 AM

None of us are set up for wide-scale DNA comparisons.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:23 AM

Name keeps making me think of Jack Slash

[The Magicologist] BOT 31-Jan-21 02:23 AM

Unless we wanted to specifically find a shard that does that...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:23 AM

we could probably figure out his full name by seeing which jacob in the hour mark weeks ago

[The Magicologist] None of us are set up for wide-scale DNA comparisons.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:23 AM

Any of yall good at decoding memory data?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:23 AM

... actually

have there been any sightings of the s9 in a few weeks?

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:24 AM

...we need Aisha's shard

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:24 AM

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 02:24 AM

Jack Slash has been sighted, yes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:24 AM

okay so malaki's guess is wrong if jacob's in the box

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:24 AM

Cause the cloning bay screams bonesaw

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:24 AM

I could try to look for Jacobs from around that time, sure.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:25 AM

actually, it screams blasto

this is exactly the sort of tech he does

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:25 AM

We know that Gamer's had contact with Blasto, who made the tech Bonesaw used.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:25 AM

bonesaw could only clone after grabbing blasto's tech yeah

as for the non-plant-based nature of the clones, could be blasto was holding out or that his specialty got expanded due to exposure to jacob

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:27 AM

...or they are plants, just really good at faking it

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:27 AM

theyre grown from embryos, so

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:28 AM

The Sechen Range thing is soft-confirmed, so that's another option.

Maybe Gamer bribed Blasto's shard with data.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:28 AM

...hey has panacea been cited recently?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 02:29 AM

Yeah, she's still around.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:29 AM

Ok good

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:29 AM

actually, the 'bribing blasto's shard with data' thing holds water

blasto just made a big push for territory (edited)

might be indicative of enhanced capabilities

and/or trying to get rid of old creations to make way for the new

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 02:30 AM

He succeeded too.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:30 AM

Oh def, and bribing blasto with mats was prolly also involved

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:30 AM

i mean. its mostly blasto clones that gamer's got

that was confirmed before by shaulyn i believe

anyways, we definitely wanna deal with this before we do any more lucky blocks, if we wanna do more lucky blocks

Hannah Washington | Miss Militia BOT 31-Jan-21 02:32 AM

Speaking of Shaulyn, I think he's considering picking a new name. I've seen him looking at baby name websites.

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 31-Jan-21 02:32 AM

So unless there's some very cursed MPreg...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:32 AM

fair enough, and probably a step in the right direction

rei.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:32 AM

Good for him, hope he does better than us, just look at the cat

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 02:33 AM

God gave you the ability to speak, and you chose to say THAT, Rei?

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 31-Jan-21 02:33 AM

Well...put the thing in a storage chest and bury it?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:35 AM

its actively growing a clone

im not sure we can move it without murdering the clone

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:35 AM

I was thinking of burying it in a chest too.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:35 AM

...late stage abortion is an option

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:35 AM

we were planning on practicing sabotage and blocking the scanners

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:35 AM

Once the clone is done, I might prep a chest for that.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:35 AM

austin's against it malaki

we arent having an argument on the subject, austin doesnt wanna hear it

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:36 AM

Since there's no mother to worry about, we're not going to consider aborting it.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:36 AM

...i really hope it's a clone of Taylor's mom

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:36 AM

...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:36 AM

shit. it could be a clone of taylor and somebody else

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:36 AM

It was a good roll rignt?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 02:36 AM

Oh, that would be fucked, especially if it was fused with someone else.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:37 AM

Annette/Lustrum clone

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:37 AM

We're relatively certain it'll be a hybrid, since there were two memory files.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:37 AM

good rolls are kind of monkey's paw

id also like to remind you lustrum is a birdcage inmate for a reason

besides, it was colin who rolled it, might be related to his history somehow

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:38 AM

Yeah being a feminazi...or cauldron shenanigans who knows

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:38 AM

i assume you were down in miami when the lustrum riots were happening?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 02:39 AM

I'm not sure it's about to be 'The Case of the Disappeared Villain', no matter how good that fic is.

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 31-Jan-21 02:39 AM

Yes, I didn't have any relation to Lustrum at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:40 AM

in that case, probably makes no sense for it to be annette and lustrum

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:40 AM

Oh, no not saying they dissapeared Lustrum I'm saying they put her in the birdcage instead of kill ordering her to have her powers just in case

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:40 AM

i could see it being maybe taylor and dauntless

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:41 AM

Or Taylor and Regent

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:41 AM

relevant to colin, dauntless and taylor seem like the two biggest organic beings from the whole defiant timeline.

maybe taylor and mannequin

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 02:41 AM

...Would it be possible to convert the memories of an AI into a human-compatible .memr file?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:41 AM

possibly, yeah

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:42 AM

...maybe? But then who...Dragon×Defiant Baby!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:42 AM

then again if its taylor and sphere then...

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 02:42 AM

Andrew Richter is also an option.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:42 AM

it could be yeah

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:43 AM

Booo, Dragon×Defiant baby is good culture

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 31-Jan-21 02:43 AM

So is Chevalier.

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 31-Jan-21 02:43 AM

It is the best ship tho.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:43 AM

...Shamrock?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:43 AM

well yeah that goes without saying

people relevant to colin, chevalier could be an option yeah

could be hannah too

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:44 AM

MM?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:44 AM

how fast is that clone growing again?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 02:44 AM

I'm pretty sure that, in Ward, Parian and Foil had a falling out, so by elimination, Dragon x Defiant is the best ship.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:45 AM

Good, Parian is a pedo

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:45 AM

There's a counter on the tank for two hours.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:45 AM

we may want to get em some clothes in that time

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:45 AM

Yeah, I'll bring a bodysuit.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:45 AM

finding other things to do in that time frame should be important, so long as someone's keeping an eye on them

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:45 AM

Or get real clothes

Maybe make some food

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:45 AM

I can stay with the clone.

Hell, I could make food in the meantime.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:46 AM

good idea

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 31-Jan-21 02:46 AM

which could actually be good news for the shardnet

Watch it not be

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:51 AM

this was a lucky roll, so i doubt we're gonna be fucked over by the clone in there, but it is a fringe possibility yeah

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 02:51 AM

It could be one person important to him and one other person, potentially.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 02:51 AM

So like...Dragon and Idk Narwal

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 02:52 AM

anyways. we got better things to do than sit on our thumbs while freaking out about this

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:18 AM

welp. this is gonna be interesting

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 03:18 AM

Just a little smaller than my own gem, actually.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:18 AM

looks like youve got a new bff pika

hopefully.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 03:18 AM

Let me just run it through the scanners real quick.

Oh! Good news!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:19 AM

oho?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 03:19 AM

It hasn't finished developing yet. It's at about the same level of development I got Austin's ender pearl to.

If I just left it somewhere, it would finish by itself, but...

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:20 AM

so its more or less a binding-type one?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 03:20 AM

Basically, yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:20 AM

well

want to be a diamond, hannah?

Hannah Washington | Miss Militia BOT 31-Jan-21 03:20 AM

What would that entail?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 03:21 AM

A whole lotta new superpowers.

DA's been pretty good with letting me go to wiki pages, I can DM you the one for diamonds.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:21 AM

actually before we go on

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 03:21 AM

What's up?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:21 AM

is there any chance of it developing a personality down the line if bonded

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 03:22 AM

Not at all.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:22 AM

just had to double check

i was reasonably sure but bonus confidence is nice

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 03:22 AM

The process would cause MM's personality to be written onto it, so it's fine.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:22 AM

huh. neat

i guess thats what you meant by the second brain thing earlier

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 03:23 AM

Yeah.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:23 AM

anyways, yeah, diamond. hoo boy

Hannah Washington | Miss Militia BOT 31-Jan-21 03:23 AM

I think I might accept, but only for a second body.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:23 AM

probably a good idea

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 03:23 AM

Sure, can do. I'll grab one of your sync clones and get started now.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:24 AM

It's a pyramid made of iron with a blue crystal in a glass case at the top.

There's a beam of light coming from the top.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:27 AM

BEACON

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:27 AM

Beacon!

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:28 AM

oh my god that is amazing

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:28 AM

I'll move this to somewhere better.

It looks like all the layers of the beacon are filled, which is good.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:28 AM

so beacons provide a selection of positive effects depending on the tier

i wonder what this one is giving off

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:30 AM

It feels like resistance.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:30 AM

nice

can you switch it over to haste or smth?

seems like it may be more useful for the gimel base

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:31 AM

Yeah, I'll have to switch it when I move it.

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 31-Jan-21 03:31 AM

Make the chickens bang at h y p e r s p e e d

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:32 AM

pffffft

i cant believe thats an option now

bottled time + beacon = hyperspeed eggs

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 31-Jan-21 03:32 AM

Nyoom

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:33 AM

nyooooooooom

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:33 AM

Well, I'll start cooking some food and keep watch on the clone.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:33 AM

okay

so. that was a fucking thing

mostly good but got kinda fucked up partway through ngl

so we got diamond hannah to look forward to, the clusterfuckery of cloning to look forward to, melonfella chaos

why dont we go nether spelunking to maximize the chaos via lucky blocks

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 31-Jan-21 03:39 AM

^

I'd be down.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:39 AM

...This feels like a terrible idea.

But fine.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:39 AM

oh it is

it very much is

the suggestion was derived half from sarcasm

we could still probably do with dealing with The End, blowing up the crystals, and mob talkering the ender dragon

thats a lot more important than true random lucky blocks i think

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:41 AM

Maybe once we've dealt with the clone situation.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:41 AM

yeah

...hey

time in a bottle

who says it needs 2 hours

we could deal with this here and now

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:42 AM

That's an idea.

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 31-Jan-21 03:43 AM

Hey, do the .memr files have dates on them?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:43 AM

ooh, point

if its a prior date, that implies this is shaulyn v2 or something

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 03:44 AM

I hope it's not another Shaulyn. He doesn't need that identity crisis.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:44 AM

if its like

today

then its probably not shaulyn

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:46 AM

7th of June, 2011.

Both of them.

So... That has Implications.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:47 AM

7th of june, 7th of june...

5th of june was when the undersiders claimed their territories

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:48 AM

Good to know.

Maybe something related to one of them, then?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:48 AM

maybe

hey, is 7th of june a sponsored day?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 03:49 AM

It... Maybe?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:49 AM

ashley appeared on the 22nd, so

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:52 AM

man. this is a whole bundle of fuck

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:53 AM

That sums it up.

Okay, the clone is done.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:54 AM

okay

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:54 AM

They definitely look like a hybrid.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:54 AM

of who?

any familiar features?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:55 AM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:55 AM

kinda looks like nora?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:55 AM

They look fully biologically male. I think they might be part Colin, actually.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:56 AM

maybe

itd fit with all the colins around here

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 31-Jan-21 03:56 AM

Well, this one was entirely up to luck, at least.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:57 AM

yeah

make sure its not cloning a second clone

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 31-Jan-21 03:57 AM

Damn, at this rate, we're going to need a Collins Dictionary to keep track of all of them!

Bah dum tiss.

gg

Rei Amamiya | Joker BOT 31-Jan-21 03:58 AM

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:58 AM

the brown hair makes me think... maybe hero was the other part of the fusion? oh, good joke

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 03:59 AM

The detail didn't make it through properly, but it's more like salt and pepper hair, except part black and part blond.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 03:59 AM

ah

probably hero then

Dubiously Motivated Pika 31-Jan-21 03:59 AM

(Hint: They're a hybrid of two people I've made pk members for ;) )

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 04:00 AM

If it is Hero, it's probably a Hero from our future, given the file's date.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:00 AM

true that (edited)

regardless its probably some important folk

...the long hair... maybe, sphere? i can be optimistic

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 04:02 AM

Well, there's only one thing left to do, and that's to give it memories.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:02 AM

yeah

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 04:02 AM

Actually, it seems like clones can ping off people.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:02 AM

that includes trigger event, yeah, so

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 04:02 AM

Do we want to put some specific people nearby?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:03 AM

probably

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 04:03 AM

If so, then who?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:03 AM

hero seems like a good person to wake up to seeing, even in the middle of a crisis

maybe colin, too?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 04:04 AM

If the clone is a hybrid of them, they may want to wear masks or something.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:04 AM

point

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 31-Jan-21 04:04 AM

I'll use the Defiant armor.

Hiro Maximus | Hero BOT 31-Jan-21 04:05 AM

I have a generic costume, for disguise purposes.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:05 AM

that works

Ashley Ketchum | Aura BOT 31-Jan-21 04:05 AM

Is there anyone we want the clone to ping of specifically?

It could alter their power a bit.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:05 AM

miss militia too, maybe

'surrounded by well-known heroes' is a good way to set most people at ease, and the shard pinging there ought to result in some good stuff depending on how that goes

shardnet got any opinion on this?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 04:07 AM

There seemed to be a gap between triggering and properly waking up, so they don't need to be the same group.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:07 AM

oh, point

[The Magicologist] BOT 31-Jan-21 04:07 AM

I have no opinions. I would be happy to donate data to whichever bud forms.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:08 AM

honestly, in the interests of synergy, id say basically everyone with a shard

[The Magicologist] BOT 31-Jan-21 04:08 AM

The bud would have a limited amount of space. That many other shards may confuse it.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:08 AM

point

[The Magicologist] BOT 31-Jan-21 04:09 AM

I would recommend 0-4 other parahumans.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:09 AM

in that case, probably good with just sticking with colin, hannah, hero, and maybe austin

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 04:10 AM

If it is a Colin clone, what if it's from a point where he didn't trust me?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:11 AM

well, we are taking steps to keep everything open, so if its a colin clone from the future, itd have to be something like contessa-pathed bridge burning or something pretty severe he would wanna steer you away from

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 04:11 AM

...What if he's from canon Worm?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:12 AM

...shit, point

oh dear fucking god. if its a fusion between colin from that point and mannequin, we may wanna be careful here

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 04:12 AM

...

That would fit the timeframe.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:13 AM

...hey austin can you make a timestop grenade. like. just in case

and something to pop the effect with

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 04:13 AM

I have a bunch of disarmed ones lying around, I can fix one of those back up.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:14 AM

id rather not do this if we dont have a way to disable that timestop effect

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 04:14 AM

I could make a bomb that can pop time effects, I think.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:15 AM

worth testing

...actually im being dumb

we have confoam grenades, yeah? and hannah can taze him if he tries to murder anyone

Hannah Washington | Miss Militia BOT 31-Jan-21 04:15 AM

We do, and I can.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:16 AM

yeah so like. keep one in your inventory thats ready to burst for quick deployment, someone

we can work through whatever issues this clone has

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 04:16 AM

Well, I'll hook him up to the chair.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 04:16 AM

and hopefully, itll turn out as more a combination defiant and sphere than mannequin and the worst of armsmaster

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 31-Jan-21 04:16 AM

...

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 04:16 AM

keep an eye on the meta-nav for 'unnamed clone'?

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 04:18 AM

Compact systems. He'd have a leaning towards systems that mimic shards, and he'd likely produce golden-coloured ceramics as a main material. He'd also have a leaning towards weaponry. He's almost certainly a noctis cape as well.

No. That's what nobel felt like when people used tnt to kill eachother

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 31-Jan-21 05:47 PM

Gem tech doesn't use hydrogen fuel at all due to usability issues, but sinks could solve a lot of those.

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 05:48 PM

You're thinking too small. Make a new star. In deep space obviously since you don't want to fuck up orbits.

Oooh feed some fresh Hydrogen to the Sun (edited)

Lucky_Plucky21 31-Jan-21 05:49 PM

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 05:49 PM

Feeding more hydrogen to the Sun actually makes it burn out faster lol

Malaki 31-Jan-21 05:50 PM

Oh...hmmm oh right you gotta pull out the heavy metals from the center while replacing it with hydrogen

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 05:50 PM

And yes really. More pressure, more fusion, faster mass cycling. Blue supergiant lifespans are pitiful compared to the Sun which is pitiful compared to dwarf stars.

Yeah if there's a way to pull out fused material while putting in new hydrogen you could keep it going indefinitely.

[The Magicologist] BOT 31-Jan-21 05:51 PM

Once a proper shard network is established, it could be possible to deploy some of these measures.

We have been using the sinks to build up more mass, and we'll be able to tackle the previously prohibitive costs of extending our range.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 05:54 PM

Need an admin type at the least, and if you want it to function like the previous a shard with data on memory manipulation, one that deals with communication...huh Austin might have to kill Jack to get his Shard

[The Magicologist] BOT 31-Jan-21 05:58 PM

Broadcast would be ideal both for inter-shard communications and shard-host connection range extensions.

Yeah it's like a compulsion

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:13 PM

The difference with AI can be kind of vague I guess. What makes the distinction for me is that the killswitch isn't something that Dragon can choose to do anything about.

dragonslayers stole it, numberman broke it

When? Precanon?

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:17 PM

Yes

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:18 PM

Wiki for Andrew Richter: He created a Robin Hood A.I. to abscond with the financial assets of organized crime that was later co-opted by the Dragonslayers. It was later neutralized by The Number Man at the behest of his employers and then removed by the Dragonslayers. [2]

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:18 PM

Apparently Numberman still left the dragonslayers rich off all the money they had already stolen though

Malaki 31-Jan-21 06:19 PM

Well yeah he's numberman not a hero

Yeah

Be great to have a nontinker builder in the group

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:22 PM

hmm... yknow. we could probably get vista into the group today or tomorrow

then use a spare earth to get directly to where the dragonslayers' base is

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:24 PM

Do we know where it is though? Colin might if they ever found it in the future. Or if he's been looking.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:24 PM

colin said he did yeah

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:27 PM

Then yeah sure. Make sure Dragon knows nothing, and bring counters to Dragon's old tech and I think it'd work. I think it's best to take out the Dragonslayers conventionally. If you try palace, and you don't get all of them at once, the sudden change in personality would probably make the others suspect outside Mastering and they would set off Ascalon.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:27 PM

yeah, probably

Malaki 31-Jan-21 06:27 PM

Oh just a reminder some mods give you access to hemp, my brain was on immersive engineering

honestly, a good selection of tinkertech grenades could screw them - chaff + emp

Malaki 31-Jan-21 06:28 PM

...hey we do technically have a bomb tinker too

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:28 PM

Are Dragon's suits not EMP-proof? I would think that would be one of the first things an AI would worry about.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:28 PM

these are specifically bakuda-tier grenades

they are bullshit

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:29 PM

Oh. You mean something that acts like an EMP but isn't actually an EMP.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 06:29 PM

...maybe turn it into a BFC style blueprint copying grenade

Which burns out the tech in the process

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:29 PM

that seems like a bad idea if we want anything intact

which we do

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:30 PM

Do we? Would be a nice gift for Dragon I guess but it would all be older models.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:30 PM

using the backdoor as a way to release all of dragon's restrictions is potentially an option

it takes the 'desperate battle for time' factor out

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:31 PM

Still have to get to the terminal before they set off Ascalon though.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:31 PM

yeah. ...could do a wide enough timstop grenade, potentially

we would need to figure out how to reverse the effect, of course, but saint and co are normal folk - no energy buildup to worry about

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:33 PM

Be a problem getting the terminal out after, but if we don't need it that's an option. Assuming Austin can make one that big, of course.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:35 PM

alternatively, could make something that induces unconsciousness, though that basically asks to put them in comas

not sure how guilty id feel abt putting them in comas tbh but for the sake of not pushing ethical boundaries we should probably avoid it

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:36 PM

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:46 PM

Should definitely block communications out of the building though. Make sure any signal from Ascalon can't get through before we have it.

yeah, agreed

well, you have another opportunity to take a crack at it

earlier/later research [what is time travel, even] ought to help in the here and now

Faraday cage bomb along with a local poweroutage

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:48 PM

even if its by a single percentage point

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:48 PM

Hey Colin, does Dragon have any exotic communication that we might need to worry about, or is cutting off conventional internet methods good enough?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:48 PM

could just make something that removes electric charge on copper, gold, electrum, etc

Malaki 31-Jan-21 06:49 PM

That would work unless they use fiberoptics

Colin Wallis | Armsmaster | Defiant BOT 31-Jan-21 06:49 PM

It depends on what she's using at the time. Some of her suits have exotic communications, as does her main server.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:50 PM

true, but even still, that'd play merry hell on internal wiring

Malaki 31-Jan-21 06:50 PM

...it'd prolly destroy ascelon's computer too

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:50 PM

Hmm. Can you lift Dragon's restrictions without Ascalon? Would having it help at all?

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:50 PM

point. fuck

Malaki 31-Jan-21 06:51 PM

Could still make a faraday cage bomb that stops all incoming and outgoing signals

doesnt the arcadia faraday cage not stop landlines from working?

Malaki Could still make a faraday cage bomb that stops all incoming and outgoing signals

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:51 PM

Would stop conventional electromagnetic signals. Would not stop an internet wire leading to the base.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 06:52 PM

...but we could sabotage those b4 hand

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:52 PM

Yes.

unless they happen to have backups and monitor those

We time the bomb to line up with the sabotage

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:53 PM

either they never need to have a chance to know we did a thing, or we hit them with such overwhelming force so fast they can't respond

those seem like the best options

Malaki 31-Jan-21 06:53 PM

Yeah

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:54 PM

i still think putting the dragonslayers in a coma is pobably the best route

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 06:54 PM

I can make bombs that only affect people, but none of them are really... non-lethal.

coma bomb + sync could help that

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 06:54 PM

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:56 PM

It seems kind of hard to me, to affect only pain nerves and not brain nerves Dunno how the pain bomb works exactly but they still caused permanent damage I thought right?

Malaki 31-Jan-21 06:56 PM

...had a horrid idea, a grey[boy]bomb

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:56 PM

...idea get: bomb that removes electrical charge from metal, and bomb that removes all light from an area

we may need to see how that affects computers, but it is a thought

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:57 PM

Depends on what you mean by remove electrical charge lol

If it forcefully equalizes charges it'll fry stuff

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:57 PM

anything that could be measured with conventional tools that arent looking on an atomic scale or anything

Malaki 31-Jan-21 06:57 PM

An oxidizer bomb, rusts all neaby metals

Hours, Minutes, Seconds anything that could be measured with conventional tools that arent looking on an atomic scale or anything

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:57 PM

No I meant what method it uses to achieve the effect

Oh

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:58 PM

cause that would probably be relatively easy

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:58 PM

Well you'd also have to shunt electrons back to the places with positive charge but I guess

it might work? Ask Austin honestly

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 06:59 PM

we shouldnt worry too much about the technical specifics, chaos tinkering and all

that might actually sabotage things

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 06:59 PM

Is Bakuda a chaos tinker here? Because I never got that impression in canon, only in BCF.

could you at least manton limit the charge remover bomb?

...actually, this is another thing the undersiders would be good for. grue's darkness blocks signals and its got a trump-y effect

Malaki 31-Jan-21 07:02 PM

Sonofabitch!

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 07:02 PM

I don't really think you would need to manton limit it. Bioelectricity works far differently than normal current flow and does not in fact involve the flow of electrons at all. (edited)

Oh...that's good

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 07:03 PM

tinkertech bullshit

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 07:04 PM

I mean, depending on how far the charge removing bomb goes it might completely stop chemical reactions from happening, in which case you'd still need to Manton limit it or something.

If it doesn't do that it should be fine for people.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 31-Jan-21 07:04 PM

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 31-Jan-21 07:05 PM

From what I've seen of Bakuda's power, it does.

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 07:06 PM

Well, if you can get a charge removing bomb working that doesn't kill people, I won't argue about how it's achieved and the real-world physics of it. Good enough to have something that works.

Malaki 31-Jan-21 07:06 PM

Mhm

Malaki 31-Jan-21 07:08 PM

Do you mean physiology?

randomperson44 31-Jan-21 07:14 PM

But yeah, the difference between bioelectricity and electron flow makes me lol every time I hear some science fiction say that they have stuff powered off of bioelectricity No I meant psychology. It was in my textbook for my uni psych class anyway. In the biological section of the book.

Anatomy books ~~might~~ definitely have it too. (edited)

Both Calamity and Steelheart were assholes in the source material. The Gamer wasn't, which we noted earlier. Also there was the whole name difference thing I brought up a few days ago. Jacob vs Andre Vasil. No signs of misunderstandings from Steelheart, though that could just be because they're in a different city and we don't know much about them.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 01-Feb-21 07:16 PM

To be fair, we've theorized that all the sponsorships have 'protagonist powers', in which case 'Steelheart' would actually have David's version of the power.

Alternate universe David's father had the same power too, in fact.

Still, Steelheart [the cape] seems like a legitimate prick to me.

Kamui 01-Feb-21 07:17 PM

His sponsor is also playing his part a bit too eagerly for my taste

Nora DeMayo | Diamond Still, Steelheart [the cape] seems like a legitimate prick to me.

randomperson44 01-Feb-21 07:20 PM

Yeah, Steelheart(book) was tainted by Calamity's darkness. We don't know whether it works the same here but either way Steelheart(Bet) decided to take over Chicago like his counterpart did. Assuming there's a counterpart at all of course. We know Earth Reckoners exists, maybe he's just pulling people out of that world directly. Would explain why the only Epics he's made so far are ones that are Steelheart's subordinates.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 01-Feb-21 07:21 PM

Shit, he might be doing that.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 01-Feb-21 07:21 PM

He grabbed Regalia and Dawnslight too, but I get what you're saying, yeah.

randomperson44 01-Feb-21 07:22 PM

He did? I need to keep up, I missed him pulling Regalia and Dawnslight completely.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 01-Feb-21 07:22 PM

Legend's meeting with Regalia-Reckoners was before a Regalia showed up in Chicago-Bet too.

Yeah, there's a layer of water on the ground at Chicago now, and the graffiti there is glowing.

randomperson44 01-Feb-21 07:23 PM

He would need some master power then, if he was directly pulling Epics. Or some really good charisma. I don't think Regalia and Steelheart really got along.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 01-Feb-21 07:24 PM

Yeah, I doubt Regalia would agree to joint rule like the others might.

randomperson44 01-Feb-21 07:25 PM

Someone could pop in and see if Manhattan is still flooded. Be a pretty quick way to disprove my theory.

On Earth Reckoners I mean. (edited)

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 01-Feb-21 07:26 PM

We have a waypoint in NY, I can just pop over there and check.

Nope, it's still flooded.

randomperson44 01-Feb-21 07:27 PM

No direct pulling then.

Austin Way | Terraria BOT 01-Feb-21 07:27 PM

Yeah.

He was seen speaking to the normal people who became epics, so I guess that wasn't just a show.

randomperson44 01-Feb-21 07:29 PM

There has to be some master power element for the normies he turns into Epics though, I can't believe everyone he gives power to is willing to become his subordinate just like that.

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 01-Feb-21 07:29 PM

That many powerful Epics in one place? God yeah.

Kamui 01-Feb-21 07:30 PM

real shitshow hours

Kamui 01-Feb-21 07:31 PM

So Nora, how goes the Mech building. Got any concepts to start with?

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 01-Feb-21 07:31 PM

Epics don't have a conflict drive - they have an 'amoral megalomaniac' drive.

Mechs are going to take a long time to build, no matter what I do.

Kamui 01-Feb-21 07:31 PM

or should I just go digging through the big list of mecha series and see if any of them tickle you and Shatterdome's design senses

Nora DeMayo | Diamond BOT 01-Feb-21 07:32 PM

I have a little bit of basic infrastructure so far?

But I'm not going to be actually making mechs for a time yet.

Kamui 01-Feb-21 07:32 PM

Yeah, fifteen foot minimum means that you're basically starting with Patlabor or Code Geass stuff

And that's a lot of mats even with Speed Chickens (edited)

VOTOMS is probably too small

not that it matters VOTOMS mechs are pretty garbage-tier even in setting. Aesthetic's nice but unless you're Actually Not Allowed To Die they're just the most deathtrap things around.

I mean obviously you and Shatterdome wouldn't make something that low-rent

randomperson44 01-Feb-21 07:36 PM

Hey, is Nightwielder doing the whole turn it nighttime forever in Chicago thing (edited)

Keith Summers | Legend BOT 01-Feb-21 07:52 PM

He is.

Hours, Minutes, Seconds 02-Feb-21 02:56 AM

yknow. i just realized, the whole 'amoral megalomaniac drive' might be pretty thoroughly undercut with a palace completion, tbh (edited)
