I'm still here! Though I suppose...that's pretty obvious. Hi! :D
GM:
I've been busy for a bit and I still need to think of something appropriate. But what kind of nudge were you looking for? Would you like an idea on what to do next, or a plan for defeating the Memento Mori monster?
I gave some simple things you could do next up in post #314. Or do you want something more definite?
Otherwise, I could give a sudden realisation for some of the clues and information that have been overlooked.
You did, and I totally forgot you did because that was a month ago. Should be able to do some of those things at the very least, but I was indeed looking for some GM-nudged ideas on ways to deal with the monster that sound like they'd work. Speaking of...
GM:
And as I said, you're overselling/overestimating the threat of the Memento Mori, which is making it harder to deal with. :p
Yeah, I recall that. I really should have asked for some input on what it is we're looking at. And not just that it's a super scary advanced time machine Terminator zombie monster, but what can it do?
My expectations were as follows:
The Doctor's Type-40 TTC is an old, wimpy, outdated model, and is fully capable of wounding or even destroying the Time Vortex, destroying stars, creating entire planets within it (seriously, it once recreated Gallifrey inside it when an evil Time Lord from the future, which is impossible but happens all the time, stole it to destroy the Doctor). The Type-40 is incredibly dangerous in the wrong hands.
The humanoid TTCs are super advanced models, and I expect they're more powerful rather than less. Then again, it doesn't seem like Compassion did anything too outside the bounds of what the Tardis did, except be humanoid.
My assumptions are that the Memento Mori can be at least as destructive as the Tardis, but we should probably dial down our expectations so the GM doesn't feel obligated to destroy half the galaxy when that ice melts. So what should we expect from the monster, boss?
