OOC thread

Can I talk?

Oh hey cool.

Threw together something from for something from a MUCK I was in, some what crazy ratkin engineer. She was a scientist that got possessed by a colony of rat spirits, when they became a were-rat they fused into one being. Went 100% bat shit fucking crazy for a few years as you had several hundred rat spirits/minds trying to control one body.

Eventually the human asserted her dominance as queen of the mental colony, but not before going a bit native..... that and she especially has a MASIVE case of DID but she won't allow other minds to take over the body. That don't mean she don't have a lot of very noisy rats chattering in her head. Thankfully they mostly arn't alowed the chatter at her, unless they are important or have valid ideas or .... ok they chatter at her more than they should.... but she has limited that and she has learned to block it out a lot......

STILL.... she has a LOT a LLLLOOOOOOTTTTTTT of noise in her head.

lol

Sweet! What's her name?
Give me whatever you have for a character sheet if you like, and I'll adjust it for here.
Post an ordinary day for her in the "begin here" thread whenever you want (I can alter it later to match her name)

oh i'll move it

Her name is Glitch....  She don't see much the need for clothing so I Can't really show much art I have of her,  none of them SHOW anything NSFW but the fact all she wars is an lab coat that came open a long time ago and no one has bothered to fix it closed again is well.... not something I would be willing to take the chance on. I can see if I can make something though to show kinda what she looks like again though.

Here I made one with pants lol

https://www.heroforge.com/load_share%3D447633/

I've thrown some basic stuff out for her.

Can I have a 'chitters' language group.

Language has a name mind you but it sounds like chittering, squeaks, scratching and the like that rats make.

Sure, that makes sense

Probably needlessly complicated but some key to her crazy talking.

Orange Text - Glitch speaking.
Pink Text - Rat Mother speaking.
Rose Text - Warlord speaking.
Purple Text - Mystic speaking.
Green Text - Scout Speaking.
Bold Red Text - Rat speaking through her
Bold Normal Text - multiples speaking at the same time.
Normal Text - generic random rats speaking.
Italic Text - Speaking in Squeaks, the skill that lets Ratkin comunicate through there own language. Can only be understood with the Rat incarna's assistance. It's rather like speaking in tounges and would require another god like being or an insanity powerful super computer to ever make any sense of it to anything other than another ratkin or child of Rat.

they hit the autistic rat button hard ^.^;;;;;

https://youtu.be/SiQX2nrMzys

I figured Chekhov's gun would be pointed at me. lol

Chekhov's gun?

Yah it's when you interdice an idea, then use it later..... though it's usaly much later.

I'm going to need levels for calculating battle outcomes and spell results. Glitch, could you assign levels to all your abilities and skills based on the following:

1 noob
2 initiate
3 regular
4 practiced
5 skilled
6 expert
7 world-class expert
8 best an ordinary person could ever accomplish
9 superpower
10 Superman
11 a god

Jack, could you do the same with your home universe spells magics and abilities?

I think that should cover all of his spells.

Wonderful!

Next thing so there's no confusion or disagree, could you both arrange your skills into the 3 categories of:

Psychic / Mental
Physical / Somatic (DNA etc)
Spiritual / Magical

Feel free to use all 6 categories.

If a skill relies on multiple of these processes, you can either pick one out or choose the primary and secondary

Like that?

Yes that's good, as long as Jack's home universe magic would all be magic based and you didn't want to count telekinesis as psychic, it's perfect

Yeah, it's the magical form. It's like super enhanced Mage Hand. He's from a world that is basically a D&D world, I guess, in hindsight.

Dragon Aflae?
I honestly don't remember Aflae becoming a Dragon at any point in the other game. link to another game

I also don't remember these gods of Order and Chaos ever having anything to do with that game either.

But my memory isn't always great.

That said, it's a really cool idea. There would be a few ways to become a Dragon in that universe.

If a Dragon (always female by choice) adopted a human, they could swallow the human whole and slowly cell by cell, nerve by nerve, insert Dragon DNA code into each nucleus. When finished, after about 9 months lived in the conscious awareness of the Dragon being taught the DNA changing meditations and other Dragon lore, she would come out in a shell, hatch herself and be able to alter her DNA the same way Dragons do.

She would be Dragonkin, who were the descendants of humans who had been infected by a Dragon created virus. Deep meditation would've revealed her Dragon heritage and awakened the potential to create her own DNA altering meditation.

A dJinie could grant the wish, or an Omnimagus mage could do it too.

As for the early reveal, yeah, I see that now. I shouldn't make those decisions 3 hours after I'm supposed to be asleep. That was supposed to be a big reveal that you'd have had the pleasure of figuring out. I'll flush the line to move past that.

I'm kind of glad the soldier has been revealed, because I wasn't originally planning on letting that sequence last long, and now Glitch has someone to give her all the info on being a Verser - albeit from a twisted perspective.

Alfea was in talks with a dragon and ether was able to become one or was in the prossess of becoming one.....

Though if she became one the dragon self just spawned another alfea like she was before she was a dragon and acted as a center of hive mind and high high high level Verimagus as a background char

Basicaly spending all her time meditating and learning magic while the other Alfea whent out and adventured for her.

Right, now I remember. By now, she'd be an impressively powerful character. I wonder what kind of powers and skills she'd have after thousands of years, especially now that the hive knows about Versers. I have r to imagine she'd have figured out how to become one of she chose to.

Well considering there was already multiple instances of her traveling around through time, going plural/hive mind is just going to add to that lol

And I don't think she would see the point in becoming a verser because it's not like she could easly be killed as you would have to simotaniously kill several people, some in some VERY VERY VERY VERY secure places. She would be more conserned about the death of her wives or any other lovers she may have picked up.

Glitch, I'm not quite certain what exactly corruption is. Could you try to explain it to me in terms of this, our universe? I believe, that it may have something to do with satan, the devil, or evil of that nature, but I am not certain. Would for instance, a demonic possession come through as corruption? Or would Insanity like schizophrenia come up as corruption? How would you translate corruption into other worlds and universes? Or is corruption directly related to the Wyrm from glitch's home universe, and not necessarily related to anything from any other universe?

I explained it in something i sent to you but I'll try and expand....

Basically before the multiverse was created there was nothingness.....  this nothingness didn't exist but when existence came into existence, it made that nothingness .... sorta kinda exist conceptually.   This caused it pain.   Thus it hates existence, in particular living things.

It causes pain and suffering in other worlds and tries to tair them down and lead to the death and distruction of those realities.

It's end goal is the destruction of all things so it can return to not existing anymore and end it's pain and suffering.

It is vastly powerful and possably more powerfull than anything else in existance but can only send small fragments of itself into other realities to infect people corrupting them.

In her reality the wyrm let it in when it lashed about and damaged the walls of it's reality and hurt itself at the same time, the corruption infected it's wounds when it found it leading to the assotiation with the wyrm.

This corruption would likely be the cause of demons as what they do (causing and feeding on pain of souls to twist them) is quite the same.  And schizophrenia COULD be caused by it trying to drive some one to harm others.... it depends on what the corruption is corrupting... it it corrupted something that causes schizophrenia it would deffently use that to make some one schizophrenic so it could spread pain and aggony to living things.

It simply HATES life and wants life to suffer as it has.... and it wants to use this pain and suffering to tair reality appart till nothing is left.  It will use order, chaos, balance, science, magic, anything it can corrupt to cause pain and suffering to do this.

It simply wants to end things and go back to 'sleep' in the peace and quite of an empty nonexistence.



On the side note if the scrill isn't a part of it, then it's likely the scrill is related to it and trying to fight it.  Something else born of the emptiness that actually LIKES existing thank you very much. lol =p  And maybe isn't to fond of it's sister/cuz/whatever trying to destroy everything.

Okay. It is part of a meta-mythology about creation, being the aspect of existence that came from nonexistence and wishes everything, especially itself to return. Ok, now I know what to show Glitch

Glitch dont persay have the sense to sense it.... it's just it's so innate to the wyrm of her realm that through the use of sense wyrm she can tell the difference between uncorrupted wyrm and corrupted wyrm because there is still plenty of wyrm that is uncorrupted....and because her people believe the wyrm is not evil and not lost to the corruption it can be saved.

Thus she has a chance of recognizing that taint of corruption in something else of it's not associated to the wyrm when looking for it.

That is to say she could develop a sense corruption if she encountered corruption to tied to the wyrm while looking for it in the wyrm.

Here's the post where I worked out some of the old style of Magus and Balur magic. Anything they could do, Jack could do better. Or Glitch, for that matter.

link to a message in another game

Glitch is currently limited to the confineds of the limitations of her original realities systems till she learns she can go past them.... and that is learning 'gifts' from spirits (mostly rat) and using them and rituals

It summoning spirits and having them do stuff

True. Slotter has some info she could pull from him. He'll volunteer some, too.

Well if she fights the wyrm she knows how she will contribute to the fight. Air fuel bomb injecting harpoons lacied with plumage rat concoctions.

When it implants into the target it will release the mixture of highly compressed gasses, creating an flash cooled/frozen pocket of gasses inside the flesh rupturing and tearing it apart.

As the pressure evens out and more flows out that the paticulit fluids arnt frozen they will be highlighted causing the air pocket under its skin to expode creating a rather sizable hole in it's side.

Then atleast SOME of the plague rats disease should survive in that would allowing the disease spirit to debuff the hell out of it.

Everyone knows harpoons are the key to beating a spirit-god.

Oof I just remembered these things are narrowish.....all but the biggest one that would just blow in half lol

Also if glitch realized this kinda stuff she could do crazy things like say.... spirit rail gun + pulling an unlimited number of sharp metal shards to throw into said rail gun + throwing rapidly throwing like a dozen knives a second in a short burst  = home made horizontal 'metor' shower

Or intentional create a stairway realm by creating multiple overlapping boltholes or something like that ... which is a maze like exsageration of geometry and spirital tunnels and pathways creating something like this:


Ratkin maze memory lets them find there way out, but other people.... eh.... yah they are going to have some problems. lol

Stairwell realm - cool!

Real quick on this, basically everything Jack knows about being a verser, Glitch also knows. If there's anything that's wrong, we'll chalk it up to Slotter getting the info wrong.

EDIT: Which means you could purposely make Glitch get it wrong if you wanted a certain side-effect to happen accidentally

M.C. Escher-verse.

Liminal Spaces where walls between reality have broken down can turn into places like that too fairly easily.  So she could try and punch a stairway realm Io exsistance and it would take her a while to find her way out but they would have a hard time doing the same and may never find there way out.
This message was last updated by the player at 22:11, Sun 17 Apr 2022.

I feel like anything that I have to punch a hole in the universe to escape from can also punch a hole in the universe, so they'd just punch their own way out. Though an Escher space would be a neat battleground for a mind that can hold the shape of it, since you'd be given all sorts of interesting angles to attack from.

Well punching a hole in space in a place where the walls of reality are striped away and reality itself is twisted in on itself like if you had a whole clump of many many wormholes that colapsed in to a black hole but all the wormholes where still there just crossing over, through, and into eachother......

puching MORE holes is generaly just going to make things worce for you....

and likely dig yourself even deeper into a the cracks


Think of it as punching a hudge crack into the ground and falling into it.

If you puch the walls to try and get out.... the walls will just colapse on top of you and the hole gets bigger.... maybe deeper...

you could maybe puch little holes into the wall to use as hand holds.... or dig tunnles out slowly and carefully... but the walls are unstable so you have to be carefull....

Best way out is to just climb out.

So it's usefull for traping something big and powerfull too if it's not smart enough or powerfull enough to just reach the whole way out, grab the outside... and pull itself out lol

So super usefull agenst something big strong and dumb.... or big strong and no insight into the spiritual world.

Bad part is.... you left a big hole in the ground that other people could fall into too, and you left a big nasty thing in there on top of that!  o.o

so.....  >.>   eh

Not the best first resort to pull if you care about random pedestrians wondering into it.... she don't care to much though. XD lol

She dose care it's harming the balance (unless the walls between worlds is TOO strong then it's just asking for it =p) and the spirit world, but hey stuff like that heals over time unless something makes it there nest.

I stand by what I said, anyone dangerous enough to warrant dimensional traps is probably capable of escaping from a dimensional trap. Like conceptually, if an Evil Jack came after him, Jack might use it for a means to change the fight landscape and prevent civilian deaths, but he would be almost certain it isn't going to trap him.

Like the Ancient One taking Kaecilius and his followers to the mirror realm isn't to trap them, but to have homefield advantage and prevent casualties.

Yes and that is another good use for it.... after all her mind is tailored to making sense of that mess..... at least more so than most people.

So she would have homefield advantage most the time.

But yah it's less useful as a trap the smarter something is, I don't think it would hold evil jack unless you could cut free the entrance and complete collapse it in on itself..... then you would have a close up pocket like Jack was trapped in, just a maze inside instead of a big open space.

Infinite storage, infinite rooms, infinite biases

Oh cool, I'll have to get it a "bias" for everything then. :D

Something amusing the system/univurse glitch is home to the mother of war machines name is "Crashing Boom Boom" due to human tendency to make explosive weapons lol

Her incarnate form changes over time to suit the latest war machines too and last one was a stealth bomber

Lol would be slotters perfect tottem

Clashing boom boom is basically a good aligned order spirit who slides into destructive impulses easily. Lol so a good match. XD

You found something evil?  BLOW IT THE FUCK UP!!!!!

War gods.... what can you do. Lol


If she was a vedio game summon spell it would just a tactical nuke dropped by a bombing run.... or a tungsten rod dropping out of orbit.

People like

"Well I summoned her but nothing seems to be hap-"
*massive exsplosition*
"Well I guess that's where she gets her name"
"What I can't hear you..."

Writer, I'm thinking you copy pasted an old copy of my sheet in, because you undid my skill edits and formating fixes. :P

You're probably right. Sorry about that. Using a phone and was offline for awhile then tried to conclude some edits I'd started earlier - timing. I'll try to make adjustments in one go without waiting next time

No worries, I'll just do it again. Fixing it now.

Technically, every sentient object Jack has is a Verser. If they act too much on their own, or become too strong, Jack's scriff will stop holding on to them and they'll go off on their own adventures. I can let Stella do what she's trying to do, but if she interacts in the world too much, she'll Verse away from Jack at some point.

I'm guessing her spiritual powers still work, but only bu the rules they are constructed to no playing lose anymore, being she's spirit and flesh. Atleast as long as she has spiritual energy to power them. I'm guessing though rituals wont work because no spirits to power them..... what I'm wondering is are the afects of already finished rituals going to work?

Will her clothing/gear change shape when she dose? Or she kinda stuck in were form?

And can she pull stuff out of the tool belt and bag? Considering the rite of shopping cart afects it making it bigger on the inside.

It'll make sense of I answer in the story, since these are things any good Verser checks on Versing in to a new place

Small point of clarification, the ring world is ringing a star at about Venus orbital distance. It's not just the inside of a planet.

still would have to rotate for normal gravity wouldn't it?

Or use power for artifical gravity and need to rotate (but not really need power) to keep from pulling itself appart.

So glitch dreams of home and Jack dreams of rehabilitating monsters, hu?

So you enjoy what you seen so far from leaving us be for a day? lol

Yes, it's good. I'm looking forward to see where the stories go. I've already been pleasantly surprised. It's also good to get a glimpse into Glitch's Homeworld

Well it's not her homeland but it's where she called home.... she's from world of darkness earth.... she ended up in the mess and settled down there and it became her home. Wasn't sure what to give him but he may find some use in some Imilexene.

One of the quirks of being a Verser is that there's always a way to pick up any skill you see, even if the normal rules of the original universe don't allow it.

Surprise it's a nightmare. XD

Yah she's dreaming of home.... how she fucked it up by summoning that spirit there.

Stella: I'm reluctant to give you a body, I don't mind detaching you from my helmet. But I really don't want to turn it into a group play where I'm asking you to do things, and I can't imagine that I wouldn't.

Oh just planed to hang out as an item or attached to an item most the time, but would be able to help out in more ways as a self entity kinda clinging onto your scriff....  being able to make a body is a bonus....  mostly planed to use it just to be a little rabbit in your pocket most the time anyway XD

Yeah, just remember that I like Jack's adventures to be his adventures, I specifically wanted a solo game when the Writer popped up. So advice is good, cute bunny is good, jumping in with your abilities is not. :)

Anyone watching Russian Doll on netflix?

Kinda reminds me of this.

The weird timeloop show? Yeah, it was alright.

This really reminds me of Jump Chains. I've actually been meaning to ask if @Writer ever read any of them.

Never heard of them. What are they?

It's got quite a few rules but it's basically a codified version of being a Verser. https://forums.spacebattles.co...ad-10.949990/reader/

Every time you jump to a new world you get 1000 character points to spend on abilities, skills, etc.

These abilities range from simple stuff like:
[*] "Marine Combat Training (100 cp)" --the basic skills of a combat trained Marine!
[*] (Totally made up by me) "The Power of Grayskull (300 cp)" --the power to turn into a super powered muscular beefcake version of yourself!

And a ton of other stuff, always based on the reality that you're visiting in the next Jump. So like here's a Jumpchain document that tells you the costs and the builds people can import with into a Mass Effect universe: https://drive.google.com/file/...CuSWiaUkjcQJSZK/view

There are a ton of worlds already written up.

You can, like a verser, still collect 'stuff' and learn skills. But .. you can also "start" a new Jump with a whole new life beforehand. So like, I could "Jump" into Mass Effect as a 500 year old Krogan warrior, and have 500 years of memories suddenly pour into my head before I actually start my Jump.

The chain ends when you die. Jumps individually usually end after ten years, or after a victory condition.

Uh.. what else..

There's more to it, you can ask if you are curious, or read that top link. There's tons there to absorb.

Anyway, there are some longer stories out there that people wrote from the perspective of a Jumper. Both shorter synopsis type stories that just write a few pages for each 10+ year period with their choices of how they leveled, and progressively, how they change the worlds they end up in. Eventually, like versers, they end up stupidly powerful. But I do like the thematic choices people make and then the fact that they can take drawbacks to get more points to spend.

Not sure how well it'd work for an RPOL thing, but could be interesting.

You got some bleak outlooks on the future x.x

Jack, I really want to look more into the Jumper thing. Sounds like the kind of system that really could work well with this kind of game.

By the way, this game is based on the concept behind the RPG called Multiverser by Joseph Young. If you like the game idea and want to try the actual rules instead of my home-brewed system, here's a link to another game in rpol where the rules are followed more directly: link to another game

It's one possible future, but not the only possible future. I'm hoping for something different, but I'm fairly certain we're about to enter famine and world war in the next 4-6 years. In all sincerity, though, fun times!
This message was last edited by the GM at 01:14, Fri 06 May 2022.

PM me if you want more details or help figuring out the Jumper thing, or definitely if you ever want to run that, even experimentally. I'll check the multiverser thing out.

Looks interesting but there wasn't very many links to exsample worlds that wheren't rough drafts/wips

Yeah, the problem with it is that it's a "game/writing exercise" that was developed over, from what I can tell as a guy showing up 6 years late to the party, several years by quite a few people. The attempts to centralize things are "okay" but not great. But for instance, you like world of darkness. I'll google: 'world of darkness jumpchain doc'

https://drive.google.com/file/...dpQtJkmdpcNEcn6/view

That's the doc I get for WoD games. There are also several others people have come up with. But like you said, it's a bit 'rough draft' and always a WIP, mostly because it's being done by amateurs.

I think in the case that someone was using jumpchains for a roleplaying game (which people apparently do on spacebattles) in my opinion, a "gm" should be double proofing every jumpchain doc that they use, and probably taking suggestions for point balancing/fixes. (Though it's point balancing within the frame of that world, not within the frame of jumpchains.)
This message was last edited by the player at 03:05, Fri 06 May 2022.

Of note, I looked through that doc, I was not inspired. But I really just meant to demonstrate how I usually find the jumpchain docs I'm looking for.

Ah, here's a good bunch on a google drive.

ooof ..... taking awakened magic into univurses where you didn't have to worry about paradox is..... broken to say the least  >.>

Would basicaly be like being a class 5 reality warper in SCP lore.....

Out of Context is a thing in jumpchains, as in, if that world doesn't have that brand of reality warping based on Awakening, it might just not let you use that power.

.. but really, it's meant, like many creative writing games, to be fun, not balanced. You shouldn't really have a character taking broken powers until later, so that they still have fun with settings, in my opinion.

Well yah even the smallest amount of awakened power is kinda broken.  Especially entropy/fate (depending the system your using) magic.

That would work in context in most places too as your just changing probability in most cases. But yah basically being like I'm scarlet witch bitch on some people on the universes where you can unleash some stupid level of probability alteration is scary.

There would be some things I would just not allow in early jumps or I would avoid popping them into such universes with such possibilities.

I had a thought and I did want to say that becoming a God/joining with a divinity/gaining godlike powers is usually a chain ending result, and the benefactors/ROB in charge will usually have you end your chain at that point and let you off the train, so to speak.

Also, it is not 'in context' in most places. The default of any setting is built from is Our Reality, and Our Reality does not have the ability to warp reality. So unless a setting explicitly has some version of it, you'd need fiat-backed Perks to be able to use something like Awakened Magic, and it probably had a built in drawback, or should, that makes you give yourself Paradigm issues, or somesuch.

fiat-backed Perks?

So, one thing to keep in mind is that to a certain degree I'm pulling my answers from flotsam and jetsam I've collected by reading various people's fanfiction/jumpchains, and partly by reading the main message board. The problem is, it's not 100% clear on how everything works.

Basically, Perks are "fiat backed" by the omnipotence of the ROB who run the Jumpchains, their backing makes it so that they trump out of context, I believe in almost all cases. You paid for it, you get to use it.

Not really related here, but some Perks are gated by form. So for instance, if you go to Pacific Rim and get 'Hybrid Kaiju' and become a kaiju, you don't get 'kaiju strength' unless you're in your alt-form Kaiju body.

Every heard of the three sisters: squash, peas & corn? They grow really well together

got a rim world mod that lets you grow them..... kinda a little borken >.>

Can get long growing more nutrishius crops in all three slots and it will take forever to grow but HOLLY HELL the harvest is MASSIVE.

>.>

didn't know about them before that XD

We grew peas and corn on our farm when i was a kid but we didn't grow them together.

WEll i usaly grew Blue corn Beans Squash because it seamed like the healthiest combo along with Apples Lentils Berries.

*Peaks at the jumpchain* oh can we do one too?  ^.^
unless that's to much?

I don't care what univurses.... more obscure the better more to learn!

I'll be doing it for myself, just to show the Writer. I'd assume if you want to do the same, they'd be fine with that.

oh no, I don't know enough about it. ^.^;;;

never mind

I'm trying to figure out what I might have that can disable a Borg cube (I don't think I'm quite there yet, power wise..)

What does my nanoswarm do?

Basically you give it target parameters and a set of program-termination protocols - maximum duration of assault, end assault after x-number of eliminations, and maximum swarm mass. Targets can't be bigger than a dinosaur. Define each of those 4 parameters and it'll go off and do its thing.

Also, if I ever assume your character does something they wouldn't do, we can chalk it up to a divergent version and fix the difference

Finished ye olde tutorial, thought I'd share. Still needs lots of proofing and such.

Nice!

Any recommendations for skills to learn? I'm not sure what to get.

Anyone?

I can't tell you the best skill to get, that might be cheating, but if it were me, whatever skill you get, I'd wait until I needed a skill I didn't have in order to extend my survival in this world so that I could gain as many skills as I could think of before leaving.

But in my general use list, I'd add plumbing, electrical engineering, Kung Fu, Ninjitsu, Tai Chi Gong, upgrade Cybernetics/Robotics, aircraft pilot, ground vehicle driving, farming, landscape engineering, masonry, sculpting, spelunking, Rock climbing, parkour, singing (lots of magics use song), my favorite instruments, ... My list would be long

If you want, instead of plucking 30 skills out of thin air, you could leave as many as you like blank and fill them in as you need them.

non-combat skills have a lot of use....

Travel skills ( teleporation / flight / phase shifting )
crafting skills ( engeneering / blacksmith / ect)
general and advance knowlage skills  ( you got a few already from studing at the academy)
spirit skills  (sense / spirit talker / spirit magic)
resource gathering skills (scrounging / search / plant skills / scanner tech / minning )
social skills (charm / emotional manipulation / trader / diplomat / CEO / ect)
general job skills - skills that combine other skills that work under a job....    like well diplomat ( a buch of social skills and knowlages rolled up) /  explore ( cartography / tracking / some crafting skills that would be useful / athletic stuff / ect)

You can be very percice to something

or a broad catagory like the job skills

I'll list some from some of my chars here in a minute

Magem/balur stuff:
Balur Smith - alows you to create things using balur as a power source
Balur mage (fire/water/wind/earth/void) - alows you to use balur to manipulate reality in line with the element.

Magus stuff

Formagus: Blood, Life, Technology, Cosmos, Death, Nature

Verimagus: Control, Mind, Soul, Love, Emotion, Spirit

Unimagus: Dimension, Energy, Chaos, Time, Void, Order

Kenimagus: Smoke, Fire, Earth, Ice, Water,Air

Imagus: Dark, Clear, Shadow, Light, Solid, Reflect

(will note it's hard to have both foremagus and imagus both very high as they opose eachother)

Some skills my chars had:
Bartitsu Elemental Gunwoman [5/5]
Pilot (6/6)
Portal Creator (11/10)
Vagabond Halfbreed Elfin Scavenger (4/4)
CEO (5/5)
Balur-Forged Omnimancer

Polymagus {3/3}
Imagus
Dar 2 Cle 2 Sha 3 Lig 2 Sol 2 Ref 2
Formagus

though I should note some of these skills where combinations of several other skills together into one

I don't feel like the majority of that is applicable to the setting we're in, and to be drawing out of the framework of that world. Maybe I'm being too literal with what we're supposed to get out of that download, but I'd think it would be stuff that can be found there.

I know but i'm trying to give you some ideas of things you can aim for too with the exsamples of things i had.

^.^;;;;

But you don't have to be literal/exsact with what you want.... general is fine....

You could be like.....give me:

Shipwright 3/3     for the skills to build ships including the crafting skills and engenering skills

Ninja 3/3  for fighting and stealth and weapons trainging


he might say it will take a little longer to learn but hey ^.^;

If you watch any movies and get ideas for powers or abilities it would be cool to have, let me know. I just watched Suicide Squad 2 with Ratcatcher 2. That's a cool ability. And that Shark!

I'll be honest, that's why I enjoy doing my Jumpchain. Which by the way, I just haven't been updating here. :P

Could you post a link to the Google doc? I may not always stay up to date, but it sounds like a fun read

https://drive.google.com/drive...wu41bJHXfElS3WunRSwt

I think that should work, let me know if you can see all the doc. Also, I haven't really been editing at all... Which is part of why I haven't been posting.

It's a WIP. Unedited is expected And no problem

Nearly forgot, Avatar status can only be activated if Jack is willing to sacrifice his self for it.

Would that yoink him and the others to a new universe in the process?

It might. It might yoink the entire Borg Collective with him. It might perma-kill Jack. It might... It'll do whatever is most convenient for the plot and fits with what Jack attempts to do, to be honest. It's one of those situations where you have to take a leap and hope.

This was just emailed out on the 10th - interesting coincidence that Glitch got a phoenix

plantborg can just brake down the borg parts and intigrate them and you know just pull everything together in a way she seams fit to make the best golem body for her. The bulk of mechine parts she don't use can just be dumped into the hat or used to make drones.

So you're offering the AI within the world with Muscorp alternative bodies to use, so they don't have to rely on Muscorp bodies? Is this right?

Also, would Stella be taking the Green or the Orange chip?

The way I see it, Stella has two paths: either she goes back to being the bunny in the pocket who occasionally chats, or she goes off to have her own thread. I've said several times that I do not want a group play thread.

The following spoiler reveals information about the future of Jack's story regarding who will be with him in the next Verse once he Verses out.

Spoiler text: (Highlight or hover over the text to view)
Yeah, she's going to go off on her own - that path is set at this point. Scriff physics won't allow her (or Rebecca, or Butler, or the Sword pair) to stay with Jack past this incarnation, and Jack's plot future won't allow him to have tag-along help beyond this incarnation (other than Scord and Een since they are literally magic).

Perhaps a ghost of an AI of Stella might remain in Jack's hat, since that's how she was originally set up. But that AI won't quite ever be sentient or embodied beyond a hologram that he calls on.

I thought I was only actionaly chatting, but if I'm still to active you can just let the GM take over the char again.

Two weeks working in a high stress position at work, and now I'm on vacation  away from the internet. Ahh!

Now I would like to respond to the last couple of posts. Internet is available at the main gate, so that is where I sit.

While you wait for my response, how have you been?

Sorry guys, it's to cold here for me not to go back to my tent. Ttyl

Enjoy your time off! ^.^

Yeah, enjoy your time off. :)

I've been fine.

everyone alive?

Alive - I've been doing alot of inner growth. Wasn't ready to write for the characters I was writing.

I'll need to reread some stuff to catch myself back up.

While I catch up, have you seen this character? It's a chat bot for attempting to kill SPC 682
https://beta.character.ai/chat...4ksbBiMwdk27KTFVWYk4

I've killed it 5 times so far. I bet you could beat that in 10 minutes

I tried it..... I don't think there is an actual way to kill it honestly having read a lot into it.

So i sugested a containment policy instead.  lol

It said it was the most successful containment policy in the history of the SPC socity ever. lol

SPC 682 can't wipe out all life on it's own... my theory is that it is WILLINGLY contained in hopes SPC will try and kill it so it will addapt in a way that will wipe out all life. (it has done so in quite a few alternate realities, almost done so, and the folder of bad ideas showed one that it would too.)

So just keep letting them trying to kill, but the 05 level containment procidure is to allow this but only OK ones that will likely result in weak adaptations.  Allow it to addapt and realiate and then contain it again.

As if they use anything on it to try and kill it that might actualy kill it, it will addapt and kill everyone.

If they don't try it will get bored / see that there is no reason to stay... and go out and kill people in mass and be uncontainable.




After all it's been shown that even if a single cell survived anywhere  (and there are lots of places it's bleed all over the place) it can regenerate from it.  They even made it stop existing but because part of it still existed it just apeared agian like nothing happened.  x.x lol there is no killing that thing short of reality bending things that just end life some how and the risk that it addapts to that...........  not worth it

The world becomes a nice place so SPC-682 no longer finds humans discussing.

Termination Test Record:
World was transformed into a utopia for SCP-682. Humans are extremely generous, and nobody ever complains about anything. All humans are extremely willing to help SCP-682 in any way possible.

SCP-682 now considers this world its paradise, and has not harmed any humans in it. SCP-682 only eats animals and plants now, and it spends all of its time relaxing and enjoying the company of all humans. SCP-682 has not tried to escape either.

*chuckles* another based off other alternent realities >.>

Oh it's way to genorious about letting you kill it.

It's way harder to kill that this.

Neat little app but the things cells are like super imposed on themselves and quantem intangled in some way i can't remmember but if such a thing was possable it pritty much means they can't not exist unless you destroy every single cell at the same time.

Including discarded cells that located all over the world at the very least.

I also found it to be generous. It's like having a DM who makes everything attempted succeed in exactly the way the player asks

You can click the >  arrow to get other answers for it and get bad answers if you get a good one.

Though I don't think the "Bad" asnwers to my responce that curent stait of things is an O5 level contaniment precidure to 'fake' try and kill it..... ect ect ect.... would be to bad....

worse case scenario is some one goes AWOL and tries something really bad, or it gets wise to the fact that the O5 arn't really going to let them do anything super dangerous to it, and escapes and becomes an uncontainable threat.
