- [23:12:00] Shadow Have we even established how much of an interplanetary "hotspot" Daeridune is?
- [23:12:41] Shadow It wouldn't be too farfetched to explain depending on what this implies
- [23:14:06] Shadow If anything though you can just make a new N if this is more trouble than it's worth, though I liked the character
- [23:15:03] Starr I /think/ he was a prototype Zaiek
- [23:16:08] Keileon We already have offworlders on Daeridune, and I think we established the planet was spacefaring
- [23:16:38] Keileon Ah, yep
- [23:16:52] Keileon SCT Daeova is capable of interplanetary travel
- [23:17:23] Keileon So there's that
- [23:17:42] Starr ah right its SCT
- [23:17:48] Shadow It's not SCT
- [23:17:53] Starr oh
- [23:17:56] Starr ..then what is it
- [23:18:16] Keileon After
- [23:18:21] Keileon iirc
- [23:18:39] Keileon And not in any of our main timelines afaik
- [23:18:53] Shadow Unknown. My guess is that it's in the near or far future from SCT, and the timeline is unknown as well. It could be Drei but it's most likely an entirely different timeline
- [23:18:54] Keileon Or at least it's not Prime or Alter. Not sure about Drei.
- [23:18:58] Starr yeah i guess he's probably a trader's son, like Zaiek is
- [23:19:00] Keileon lel
- [23:19:26] Shadow It's definitely neither Prime or Alter, though, so there's that
- [23:19:52] Keileon Honestly it /may as well/ be Drei at this point
- [23:20:19] Keileon Unless there's a reason to keep it separate from literally everything
- [23:21:02] Shadow Tentatively? Maybe. But there's some... circumstances... surrounding AoF and I think it's best I keep the timeline ambiguous before definitely labeling it as Drei
- [23:21:15] Keileon Alright
- [23:21:32] Starr don't we need cerby here
- [23:21:53] Shadow We aren't going to CP lol
- [23:22:10] Keileon I will say this in case you're worried about interfering with other things in Drei: I only know SCT-era Shiveztel. After that is up to circumstances. Shiveztel forges his own fate.
- [23:22:39] Keileon Cerberus still there?
- [23:23:06] Shadow Oh no it's not about interfering with other things, it's actually the other way around. Developments could easily make AoF unfeasible to Drei
- [23:23:15] Keileon Ah
- [23:24:30] Ziolang lolDrei
- [23:24:43] Ziolang I try not to think about that because >Kivorde-less Deveron
- [23:24:45] Keileon What are you lol'ing at
- [23:24:57] Keileon Hey man we had developments for that
- [23:25:15] Ziolang Yeah, they'd just still be running around nuking planets
- [23:25:18] Ziolang Space pirates
- [23:25:22] Starr Drei doesn't exist in DR
- [23:25:27] Keileon Plus Deveron/Euthora alliance
- [23:25:43] Keileon starr it'd be the other way around
- [23:25:47] Ziolang More of a "we won't nuke you if you watch our dergons"
- [23:25:54] Starr Okay, other way around
- [23:26:00] Keileon Also >space pirates
- [23:26:07] Keileon >Sarkiri are also space pirates
- [23:26:15] Starr >CrazE has space pirates
- [23:26:17] Keileon That would be fun
- [23:26:18] Ziolang Well, maybe more like space nazis?
- [23:26:24] Keileon Craz had space police
- [23:26:25] Starr You mean Grenians
- [23:26:33] Starr No crazE has space pirates too
- [23:26:38] Starr I swear to zhenn
- [23:26:41] Starr shadow can vouch
- [23:26:45] Shadow He does
- [23:26:47] Starr see
- [23:26:49] Keileon of course he does
- [23:26:53] Keileon Well, still
- [23:26:58] Starr Crysian-level space pirates
- [23:27:02] Keileon We can't expect-- LOL
- [23:27:12] LordXGigaX sighs
- [23:27:20] Keileon --expect the entirety of the spacefaring manaverse to be good
- [23:27:45] Starr I could never drum up anything for Drei
- [23:27:48] Keileon Sarkiri actively kidnap/kill people, Vodera take over planets, Craz does whatever the fuck
- [23:27:51] Starr not much of a point, really
- [23:27:58] LordXGigaX I just don't care
- [23:28:04] Ziolang Also that's a lot of time for Vodera to be running around nuking worlds... they'd probably have some kind of empire thing by now
- [23:28:11] Starr so I just assume all my characters never...suffer in Drei, and lead normal lives.
- [23:28:21] Keileon Zio do you realize how awesome thaat sounds
- [23:28:25] Keileon *that
- [23:28:31] Keileon Also I just remembered
- [23:28:33] Ziolang ... yes.
- [23:28:41] Ziolang This is why I avoid Drei
- [23:28:44] Keileon Euthora, Ceskion, and Ferona are all in the same star system
- [23:28:47] Starr that means Vale/Emri have normal lives
- [23:28:51] Ziolang Because I'd have to dev an /EMPIRE/
- [23:28:53] Starr I'm happy
- [23:29:01] Starr Hey crayon its not so hard
- [23:29:05] Keileon Which means if Deveron has contact with Euthora, they'd run into the other two
- [23:29:10] Starr 80% is just politics
- [23:29:14] Keileon You don't have to dev the entire empire lol
- [23:29:15] Ziolang Also if- ^
- [23:29:17] Ziolang er
- [23:29:21] Ziolang @Kuda
- [23:29:45] Keileon Ceskion's a very small world but I kind of think the Sarkiri would put up a hell of a fight
- [23:29:57] Ziolang Granted a Vodera "empire" would just mean "planets with only Demons on it"
- [23:30:16] Keileon either that or the sarkiri are hired like mercs to avoid said fight
- [23:30:23] Ziolang Of course I'd have to figure out what happened to Hira-...
- [23:30:25] Ziolang ...
- [23:30:26] Ziolang ...
- [23:30:28] Ziolang uh oh
- [23:30:31] Keileon ????
- [23:30:55] Ziolang What if instead of Hirasu "melting" into Vorpal... He /mastered/ it.
- [23:31:05] Ziolang He'd be a literal deity
- [23:31:09] Keileon Niiice
- [23:31:15] Ziolang crap
- [23:31:46] Ziolang That would... imply that he had 100% mastered impery over the entire aether of Vorpal
- [23:32:17] Keileon And what would that imply?
- [23:32:25] Ziolang And if planets get vorpalized... he'd basically have absolute control
- [23:32:36] Ziolang I'm... aaaaa how does this even
- [23:33:06] Ziolang shadow help Hirasu's trying to take over the manaverse
- [23:33:15] Shadow Good
- [23:33:16] Starr why are all demons mean
- [23:33:18] Keileon ... Actually
- [23:33:29] Keileon If he really wants to control the Manaverse
- [23:33:32] fryborg [Jake] I, for one, welcome our new Vodera overlords
- [23:33:38] Starr eyyy eeb
- [23:33:39] Ziolang loleeb
- [23:33:42] Keileon The reach that Ceskion and Ferona have would be /invaluable/
- [23:33:45] Starr when did you get here
- [23:33:56] Ziolang Of course this would beg the question
- [23:34:02] Ziolang Of what Hirasu's motivation is
- [23:34:11] Starr demon motivations
- [23:34:12] Keileon Power corrupts~
- [23:34:19] Shadow Create the Vorpalverse
- [23:34:20] fryborg [Jake] I'd say I've been watching for the past... 10ish minutes, I guess
- [23:34:22] Starr LMAO
- [23:34:42] Ziolang >Vorpalverse
- [23:35:02] Ziolang Isn't that literally just what I had before I grafted Deveron into the manaverse?
- [23:35:11] Keileon We've come full circle
- [23:35:16] Ziolang welp
- [23:35:20] Ziolang Thank you, Drei
- [23:35:21] Shadow Ouroboros must eat itself
- [23:35:27] Ziolang Your destiny is to become the Vorpalverse
- [23:35:28] Starr i like my worlds to be mana/eon please thanks
- [23:35:31] |<-- Flem has left irc.paradoxirc.net (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
- [23:35:50] Keileon Starr why do you care it's Drei
- [23:36:05] Shadow At the rate this is going Drei is going to be the doomed timeline
- [23:36:06] Starr what if I do end up figuring out what i want to do on drei
- [23:36:23] Keileon then you wll do so after submitting to your vodera overlords
- [23:36:36] Starr no
- [23:36:42] Keileon Or develop a defense
- [23:36:47] Shadow That would make interesting conflict with the plot threads they've laid down, no?
- [23:36:57] fryborg [Jake] What would happen to a Manacle if its planet were vorpalized?
- [23:37:07] Shadow Asking the questions
- [23:37:09] Keileon If you do figure it out? React to the situation.
- [23:37:16] Starr It wouldn't connect with the others because Vorpal =/= Mana I'm guessing
- [23:37:32] Keileon Wasn't Vorpal a form of Mana though?
- [23:37:34] Shadow Vorpal IS LITERALLY repurposed Mana
- [23:37:37] Keileon yeah
- [23:37:45] Starr Then idk
- [23:37:48] Ziolang yeah
- [23:37:50] Shadow Very modified, reegineered Mana
- [23:37:57] Shadow reengineered*
- [23:37:57] Ziolang It's like... solid mana?
- [23:38:12] Keileon Now I'm vaguely wondering
- [23:38:13] Ziolang Aetheric matter
- [23:38:15] Ziolang idek
- [23:38:30] Ziolang It's very potent
- [23:38:30] Keileon Shadow, do you happen to know if Phantasia would go the route of Prime or Alter in Drei?
- [23:38:51] Ziolang >mfw Zio might not even exist in Drei
- [23:38:59] Starr Good, Emma keeps her ability to walk
- [23:39:16] -->| Flem (Flimzy@hidden-c87s1s.res.rr.com) has joined #Manaverse
- [23:39:17] Ziolang She'll just be subject to an entire Demon empire
- [23:39:31] Starr ...so
- [23:39:34] Shadow I'm guessing it'd be like Alter
- [23:39:44] Starr she's just gonna lose it to some other demon anyway LMAO
- [23:39:46] Shadow No way it's going like Prime without Shadow there
- [23:40:10] Keileon Wait Shadow's not there in Drei?
- [23:40:17] Starr Grenian+Syel empire combo would be a hell of a good defense
- [23:40:28] Shadow ... did you forget the entire precept of Shadow's route in Drei?
- [23:40:32] Ziolang Tho alter has to deal with an aetheric eldritch abomination so
- [23:40:35] Starr he goes to crysia
- [23:40:36] Starr iirc
- [23:40:36] Keileon I remember vague bits
- [23:40:42] Shadow Yes, Starr got it
- [23:40:44] Keileon I didn't remember if he left the planet
- [23:40:52] Starr he gets to settle with his second waifu
- [23:40:58] Shadow LOL
- [23:41:00] Keileon alright then
- [23:41:12] Keileon Now, without spoiling anything
- [23:41:26] fryborg [Jake] Here's hoping that, if Shadow goes all that way for a waifu, he doesn't get
- [23:41:26] Keileon Would the Alter route go /any/ different if the planet was Vorpalized
- [23:41:29] fryborg [Jake] hung out to
- [23:41:30] fryborg [Jake] Drei
- [23:41:40] Starr LOL
- [23:41:51] Ziolang >mfw the entirety of Drei is becoming vorpalized
- [23:42:02] Keileon The /only/ reason I ask is because I know FM has to do with Malice
- [23:42:09] Starr Drei sucks now thanks crayon pls youre killing me
- [23:42:11] fryborg [Jake] Vorpalized Phantasia. Interesting
- [23:42:15] Shadow Yes, a lot different. So different that I don't even want to think of the implications
- [23:42:22] Ziolang ^
- [23:42:43] Keileon >mfw I'm getting people who didn't want to think about Drei to think about Drei
- [23:42:46] Shadow So we'll leave that aside until I can actually reveal what's happening behind the scenes (Shadow FM)
- [23:42:52] Keileon shadow fm
- [23:43:45] Starr I'm only thinking about Drei now because it scares me now
- [23:43:48] Starr redundancy
- [23:44:02] Keileon The entirety of the Manaverse doesn't have to be Vorpalized
- [23:44:20] Keileon ie I feel like the Vindrite pantheon would actively keep the Vodera away
- [23:44:24] Ziolang I highly doubt one planet is going to take the entire verse so
- [23:44:30] Starr Zhenn just nukes everyone to hell
- [23:44:37] Keileon No I mean
- [23:44:47] Starr "Ew vorpal touched my worlds. Lets nuke my worlds."
- [23:44:50] Keileon Demon Empire vs nonvorpal planets
- [23:45:15] Keileon I'm pretty sure we're slowly turning Drei into magic star wars
- [23:45:17] Starr Well, in a plot sense if I were to DR in Drei, I wouldn't have much space to do plots without having it involve them just constantly fighting off demons
- [23:45:21] Keileon or star trek
- [23:45:22] Starr >Star wars
- [23:45:36] Starr 1-3 or 4-6
- [23:45:37] Ziolang The plot of Drei is an MMO
- [23:45:41] fryborg [Jake] Hirasu Starkiller
- [23:45:42] Keileon LOL
- [23:45:46] Ziolang Which side will you join?
- [23:45:47] Shadow Consider the fact that Hirasu would be literally a god-tier character, Vodera could /actually fight off deities/, in theory
- [23:45:55] Keileon Yes
- [23:46:05] Ziolang Utilizing a form of mana that's /more/ potent
- [23:46:42] Keileon Of course, we might see more planets pulling a Rinul
- [23:46:48] Starr exploding?
- [23:46:54] Keileon And by that I mean in both senses
- [23:46:59] Ziolang Basically, in theory, Hirasu could probably take on most Deities one-on-one. So worlds with pantheons he'd probably "save for later"
- [23:47:02] Keileon Dimension bubbles and/or eploding
- [23:47:12] Keileon *exploding
- [23:47:13] Starr that sounded a lot like crazE
- [23:47:58] Shadow Damn son, Drei took a very interesting turn all of a sudden
- [23:48:05] Shadow Blame latenight dev
- [23:48:38] Keileon If this happens I see Euthora having a weird alliance with Deveron because dergs, Ceskion attempting to ally while keeping its non-Vorpal status, and Vindrgard actively fighting the Vodera off
- [23:49:06] Starr Mantua eons itself outta there
- [23:49:21] Ziolang This is like... Manaverse-wide war
- [23:49:23] Keileon Would be a good way to have Vindrite dragons do something other than destroy humanity every millennium
- [23:49:30] Keileon ... especially...
- [23:49:39] Starr that's all I could pretty much call in this supposed situation
- [23:49:44] Keileon Hey, how much of this would take place in actual /space/?
- [23:49:46] Ziolang Because Vodera would have been doing this for /millennia/ by SCT
- [23:50:39] Keileon Because Vindrgard has /also/ been perfecting life for millennia at SCT, and Draco Contriventus don't need air to survive
- [23:50:57] Starr >Space dergs
- [23:51:01] Ziolang Well Vodera use dimensional shenanigans to conceal Deveron and likely startered doing the same for worlds they conquer
- [23:51:04] Keileon Vindrgard, even being isolated in Prime and Alter, would be at the forefront of the fight in Drei
- [23:51:25] Starr Wouldn't this mean Crysia is basically fucked in this timeline?
- [23:51:29] Keileon good
- [23:51:34] Starr because >Over reliant on mana
- [23:51:40] Ziolang Not necessarily
- [23:51:43] Starr And Greniou not because >Not enough mana
- [23:51:54] Keileon How would the fight /go/ anyway?
- [23:51:59] Keileon Like, the actual battles
- [23:52:01] Ziolang Let's see
- [23:52:10] Starr gundams with swords
- [23:52:20] Starr w-..why am I even entertaining that thought no
- [23:52:21] Keileon I doubt that the Vodera can vorpalize an entire planet instantly right?
- [23:52:29] Ziolang Well by SCT planets would be aware of the Voderan "Empire" by now and how they operate
- [23:52:47] Keileon Wait this isn't Star Wars
- [23:52:51] Keileon This is fucking Spore
- [23:52:55] Ziolang So I imagine there'd be dimensional fail-safes to keep the Vodera from just... materializing and sweeping them away
- [23:53:16] Ziolang Vorpalization is very rapid
- [23:53:31] Keileon Like this is literally Spore
- [23:53:55] Ziolang I've never played Spore
- [23:54:02] Shadow <Starr> Wouldn't this mean Crysia is basically fucked in this timeline? --- Probably, probably not. Just because you present a logical counter to something doesn't mean the other party will just stand there and take it
- [23:54:14] Shadow Consider the fact that other worlds could develop some form of counterplay
- [23:54:26] Starr I mean, they'll be replacing their /primary source of function/
- [23:54:47] Starr If anything, if Crysia is in danger then expect like 25% of the Leeg of Faggots to show up at some point
- [23:55:00] Keileon Vodera: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Grox
- [23:55:17] Keileon Shadow
- [23:55:31] Keileon "probably, probably not" is condradictory
- [23:55:32] Starr sounds about right
- [23:55:41] Keileon "maybe, maybe not" is what you mean :V
- [23:56:24] fryborg [Jake] lol technicalities
- [23:56:46] Shadow I mean, "replacing their primary source of function" is pretty much true for 90% of the Manaverse worlds. And once again, just because you have water and the enemy has fire doesn't mean you automatically win
- [23:56:57] Ziolang ^
- [23:57:03] Starr if you're me then it does :P *shot*
- [23:57:19] Starr Nooow a question that's probably answered
- [23:57:35] Starr so do the people in mana-converted-vorpal worlds...die because of the conversion? Or
- [23:57:43] Ziolang As Vorpal is [very crudely put] essentially just more potent Mana, some worlds probably wouldn't have a problem adapting
- [23:57:57] Ziolang They can
- [23:58:01] Starr Ah
- [23:58:08] Keileon ... In fact
- [23:58:10] Ziolang Some do, most live
- [23:58:22] Starr So they just turn into vorpal people?
- [23:58:24] Ziolang It mostly just overloads the mana circuits for a long time
- [23:58:28] Shadow They can die, but if they're /also/ converted into Vorpal entities then they'll adapt to Vorpal
- [23:58:45] Keileon Let's throw both Euthoran and Vindrite dragons into the mix. One has scales that very easily absorb and retain Mana, the other actively eats Mana
- [23:58:47] Starr Dunno if Vodera bother with converting the people
- [23:58:57] Keileon What happens when they only have access to Vorpal?
- [23:58:58] Ziolang They do
- [23:59:09] Starr >tfw Saezer metal will lose its purpose
- [23:59:11] Ziolang Vorpal is a form of mana, they'd be fine
- [23:59:14] Starr there goes Greniou's business
- [23:59:31] Keileon So Vindrite dragons may wel be one of the best weapons against the Vodera
- [23:59:35] Keileon *well
- [23:59:44] Shadow I don't think it's a matter of "wanting to convert something". You can't order a bomb to just destroy the environment
- [23:59:52] Ziolang ^
- [23:59:55] Shadow Similarly, Vorpalization just... happens.
- [23:59:58] Ziolang It vorpalizes /everything/
- [00:00:03] Starr I'm just....imagining a vorpal Starrcast
- [00:00:15] Starr Vorpal Starr with...Eon...I guess?
- [00:00:22] Starr I mean without eon the sky serpent race are basically worms, so
- [00:00:27] Keileon tbf they probably wouldn't be any different aside from Aether
- [00:00:28] Starr idk how that would go
- [00:00:33] Shadow ^
- [00:00:36] Ziolang The major reason why people don't auto-adapt to Vorpal is because Vorpal is synced to Degol
- [00:01:20] Starr But then again, for me it wouldn't matter because they would all lead normal lives, so no combat specs to worry about
- [00:01:24] Ziolang Vodera are used to how Vorpal works and how to command it. They subconsciously use Degol.
- [00:01:38] Keileon How would Deveron interact with its "allies" then? Teach Euthorans Degol? I mean sound-wise it's not too different from Drakine
- [00:01:47] Ziolang Vorpalizing would be like revoking a society's language and replacing it with an entirely new one
- [00:02:01] Shadow It's not just about teaching
- [00:02:04] Ziolang It's still a language
- [00:02:09] Ziolang They're just not familiar
- [00:02:12] Shadow There's a purely mental component involved with the activation of magic
- [00:02:20] Shadow So they have to get used to /that/ as well
- [00:02:24] Ziolang Yeah
- [00:02:33] Shadow It's like suddenly learning that 1 + 1 = 3
- [00:02:37] Ziolang ^
- [00:02:40] Shadow And it screws up /everything/
- [00:02:49] fryborg [Guard Dog of Hades] In reference to the highlights for AoF a while ago (sorry, was making food) if we reboot it I probably wouldn't participate-- at least not as a main character
- [00:03:04] Starr rip cerbs
- [00:03:07] LordXGigaX oh so 3 + 3 = 19
- [00:03:09] Shadow Aw, why?
- [00:03:51] Ziolang [lol itd be like taking C++ away from a bunch of programmers and making them only able to use Java]
- [00:04:02] Shadow [lmao programming jokes]
- [00:04:27] Starr >programing jokes
- [00:04:46] |<-- Starr has left irc.paradoxirc.net (Quit: A new future is mine for the carving, to staunch the bleeding with ashes.)
- [00:04:53] Shadow she couldn't take it
- [00:05:20] Keileon prolly ipod
- [00:05:26] Ziolang And actually it's """"easier"""" to use Vorpal than mana. You can learn spoken "incantations" or "presets" and perform magic without fully understanding the mechanics behind it
- [00:05:46] fryborg [Guard Dog of Hades] I'm just not that interested in CPing, and it doesn't feel like a good time for me, either. My willingness could easily change with time, but I don't see myself taking part if it starts up in the near future
- [00:05:49] Starr|Ipod iPod yeah
- [00:05:56] Ziolang Just as long as you're invoking the meanings of the words and attaching them to your mental desired outcome
- [00:07:01] Keileon Sooooo basically Eragon magic
- [00:07:20] |<-- LordXGigaX has left irc.paradoxirc.net (Quit: Time to gtfo!)
- [00:07:52] Starr|Ipod No blendy don't quit too
- [00:08:19] Ziolang kinda
- [00:08:58] Keileon Also hm
- [00:09:18] Keileon This would actually give reason behind Vindrgard's attempt to perfect humanity
- [00:09:40] Keileon A sort of "we've been preparing for something like this, now it's time to act on it"
- [00:10:31] Ziolang I will say though
- [00:10:50] Ziolang The battle against Vindrgard would've happened around the same time as Euthora
- [00:11:00] Ziolang So we would need to know how long ago that was
- [00:11:10] Keileon Wait why would it have been?
- [00:11:39] Keileon It's just Ceskion/Euthora/Ferona in the same system. Vindrgard is faaaaar away.
- [00:13:31] Ziolang oh ok
- [00:16:40] Keileon This dev though
- [00:17:11] Ziolang I think we should forget it ever happened
- [00:17:15] Ziolang Set Drei down
- [00:17:18] Keileon I love how Drei suddenly got very interesting
- [00:17:23] Ziolang And back away reeeeeaaal sloooowwwly
- [00:17:27] Keileon no
- [00:18:04] Keileon Do you fear what you've created, Zio
- [00:18:20] Ziolang The problem isn't that I fear it
- [00:18:24] Ziolang But that I welcome it
- [00:18:26] Ziolang T-T
- [00:18:37] Keileon Embrace the dev, Zio
- [00:19:01] Keileon You control what is very probably the ost powerful race n the Drei timeline
- [00:19:06] Keileon *most
- [00:19:15] Keileon . . .
- [00:19:33] Keileon Shadow, what would Outside Observer Shadow do with all this happening?
- [00:19:46] Shadow No idea
- [00:19:55] Shadow I don't even know how his route actually /goes/
- [00:20:07] Shadow He might not even be an Outside Observer
- [00:20:20] Keileon Let's assume based on the other timelines: would he get involved? Run? Fight? Submit?
- [00:20:56] Keileon For that matter I'm wondering if the /hierarchs/ would get involved
- [00:22:26] Shadow Depends on the approach of the Vodera, I guess. It's most likely going to be "submit and die or fight and die" so probably just... run given the sheer scale of all of this. Not much he can do there.
- [00:22:26] Ziolang >inb4 world vorpalized before Shadow is even A Thing
- [00:22:37] Shadow However, if he has his Reality Marble.
- [00:22:42] Shadow Then everything changes
- [00:22:46] Keileon Oh???????
- [00:22:48] fryborg [Jake] Generally my understanding is that it wouldn't be impactful enough on the scale of preserving reality that the Hierarchs would not even get involved at all
- [00:23:18] fryborg [Jake] It's confined to a single timeline, so it's considered the "natural progression" of things. No need for the Hierarchs to obliterate or otherwise modify the timeline
- [00:23:56] Shadow Because with his RM then he, by definition, has a chance of beating Hirasu
- [00:24:22] Keileon He'd probably have to find Hirasu first
- [00:24:29] Shadow Yes
- [00:24:52] Keileon Also I'm loving how this is basically becoming Vodera empire vs some unnamed resistance force
- [00:25:01] Keileon Because resisting by yoursef will get you killed
- [00:25:07] Keileon *yourself
- [00:25:48] Shadow And Eebit's just about right about Hierarchs, though there'd be some heavy debates about the subject. Whether it's even okay to let Mana be repurposed or just do the usual "watch the developments" approach and then choose a course of action
- [00:25:55] Keileon Ah
- [00:26:06] Shadow So there /might/ be some Hierarch involvement, but it wouldn't be a large-scale thing
- [00:27:25] Keileon I can imagine if Shadow has his RM in Drei Vindrgard may just try to contact him and go "come over here, we can help you, you'll get yourself killed if you do this alone anyway"
- [00:27:47] Keileon Which they wouldn't do in Prime or Alter unless something like /this/ was happening
- [00:29:01] Ziolang Also worth noting is that due to Vorpal's nature and being synced to Degol, some Vodera could command the aether at a level not much lower than Hirasu methinks
- [00:29:22] Keileon So basically the Vodera become their own gods
- [00:29:29] Shadow Like I said, I don't really know about his route in Drei and maybe he doesn't even unlock his full potential there so his route is just ?????? at the moment
- [00:30:00] Ziolang Potentially; it would be incredibly difficult and require extreme mental/physical/emotional/spiritual training
- [00:30:27] Keileon It just reminds me of a quote I once attributed to the surviving Diclonii
- [00:30:33] Keileon "we are our own gods"
- [00:31:07] Ziolang And I imagine "finding Hirasu" wouldn't be too hard
- [00:31:16] Ziolang Cause he'd probably be at the frontlines =x
- [00:31:41] Keileon But that'd mean he'd also be surrounded by his troops
- [00:31:43] Ziolang I mean, he is a Vodera after all.
- [00:31:49] Ziolang His best troops
- [00:31:53] Ziolang The nigh-god troops
- [00:32:02] Starr|Ipod You sound like craze now
- [00:32:09] Shadow Then yeah, in that hypothetical scenario Shadow would quite literally be the trump card. He'd just need a way to get Hirasu in the marble alone
- [00:32:14] Keileon RM or not, I'm not sure Shadow could take down ffty high-tier Voderaa, multiple which may be godlike, by himself
- [00:32:22] Ziolang Well
- [00:32:26] Keileon *fifty
- [00:32:37] Ziolang Actually Hirasu would probably have his best commanding their own invasion forces
- [00:32:39] Keileon *Vodera
- [00:32:54] Ziolang So there's that
- [00:33:14] Ziolang Aaaa I don't like playing such high-power characters =<
- [00:33:26] Starr|Ipod Why not?
- [00:33:29] Ziolang dev y u do dis to me?
- [00:33:33] Starr|Ipod Id kill to play some
- [00:33:37] Keileon and yet, what happens to zio in prime
- [00:33:42] Ziolang He dies
- [00:33:46] Ziolang so
- [00:33:50] Keileon I thought that was Alter
- [00:33:50] Shadow Because absolute power is boring
- [00:33:52] Starr|Ipod I thought that was alter
- [00:33:53] Keileon w/e
- [00:33:56] Keileon LOL
- [00:33:57] Starr|Ipod Oh
- [00:34:04] Keileon Starr I thought I accidentally doubled
- [00:34:04] Ziolang Actually he lives in Alter
- [00:34:07] Starr|Ipod Yeah, we thought that was alter
- [00:34:09] Starr|Ipod What
- [00:34:10] Starr|Ipod Lmao
- [00:34:21] Ziolang /Deveron/ dies in Alter and lives in Prime
- [00:34:26] Ziolang The opposite is true for Zio
- [00:34:26] Keileon o
- [00:34:36] Ziolang Zio dies fixing Deveron in Prime
- [00:34:38] Keileon Okay well
- [00:34:43] Ziolang He lives to see it collapse in Alter
- [00:34:46] Starr|Ipod Speaking of, what if DR existed in this drei and Emma does have a demon ship come true there
- [00:34:47] Keileon I think this rules out AoF being in Drei
- [00:34:59] Keileon because S has bigger things to concern himself with
- [00:35:02] Starr|Ipod Just with some other demon
- [00:35:06] Starr|Ipod Let's call him Bob
- [00:35:35] Ziolang I could always move Vordera empire to its own timeline
- [00:35:52] Starr|Ipod Demon Hisao
- [00:35:57] Ziolang Cause otherwise it's the /epicenter/ of Drei
- [00:35:59] Starr|Ipod Alright I think I've had enough milk
- [00:36:08] Ziolang >Demon Hisao
- [00:36:09] Starr|Ipod puts the milk down
- [00:36:13] Ziolang what are you even?
- [00:36:18] Starr|Ipod EXACTLY
- [00:36:25] Ziolang LOL
- [00:36:25] Keileon Zio, nothing wrong with that
- [00:36:29] Starr|Ipod he'd probably be at either the highest or lowest of his class
- [00:36:48] Keileon CoU and its shananigans are basically the epicenter of Alter
- [00:36:53] Keileon *shenanigans
- [00:36:57] Starr|Ipod One part, he's too cheerful and good, another...physically he can cripple ATK-based people
- [00:37:00] Starr|Ipod Easily
- [00:37:16] Shadow It's fine. I think it gives a lot of meat and background lore to Drei
- [00:37:20] Keileon ^
- [00:37:28] Keileon Drei needed the dev
- [00:37:30] Ziolang darn, I was trying to escpe
- [00:37:33] Ziolang *escape
- [00:37:39] Starr|Ipod It sounds pretty cool
- [00:37:49] Ziolang so now I need to know...
- [00:37:58] Ziolang Is Zio there and does he play any kind of role?
- [00:38:13] Starr|Ipod I thought you said he doesn't exist in drei
- [00:38:17] Keileon This even potentially gives Shiveztel a reason to exist after SCT lol
- [00:38:19] Ziolang I said idk
- [00:38:23] Starr|Ipod Oh
- [00:38:44] Ziolang ... if he did he probably wouldn't be named Ziolang
- [00:38:49] Ziolang But Zyolen
- [00:38:53] Ziolang welp
- [00:39:19] Keileon pls, by all rights Careodry's name should be Ceriodry
- [00:39:27] Ziolang I'll make him some front-lines grunt who dies in his first real battle
- [00:39:39] Ziolang gg zyo
- [00:39:57] Starr|Ipod Cardry
- [00:40:00] Starr|Ipod Knows ur sins
- [00:40:03] Ziolang Yeah but with Degol not being lost, there would be no reason for Zio's name to be mispelled
- [00:40:12] Keileon cardry the local fish
- [00:40:21] Ziolang space fish
- [00:40:28] Starr|Ipod [cue face]
- [00:40:34] Starr|Ipod Proud acomplishment
- [00:40:39] Starr|Ipod Accomplishment
- [00:40:47] Keileon Careodry plays a big role in Shiveztel too. Wonder what he thinks about all this.
- [00:41:31] Keileon Actually better question. Does he or Shiveztel /care/? Euthora's in a good position in Drei.
- [00:41:55] Starr|Ipod Emri picks up Shadow and goes "let's tap in to your potential to beat up demons ok? Ok." And becomes his mentor
- [00:42:39] Keileon ... Then again
- [00:42:58] Keileon In technicality, Shiveztel is /descended from/ the dergs Deveron put on Euthora
- [00:43:08] Starr|Ipod No Starr stop thinking about a demon Hisao
- [00:43:23] Starr|Ipod I don't even think the boxers have a baby
- [00:43:26] Starr|Ipod Navy
- [00:43:28] Starr|Ipod GOSHRIEN
- [00:43:32] Starr|Ipod VODERA
- [00:43:33] Ziolang Euthora might have to be Vorpalized tho
- [00:43:39] Ziolang just sayin
- [00:43:42] Keileon Why's that?
- [00:43:53] Starr|Ipod >ally?
- [00:44:14] Keileon I thought the idea was "watch our dergs and we won't Vorpalize you"
- [00:44:18] Ziolang Not the best plan to leave an entire race of vorpal beings on a mana planet
- [00:44:31] Keileon Do remember they assimilate and adapt
- [00:44:40] Ziolang And I doubt a race bent on vorpalizing the manaverse would let one go free
- [00:44:56] Ziolang They just... wouldn't slaughter the inhabitants...?
- [00:44:59] Keileon Would they if it meant having Euthora as a willing ally?
- [00:45:31] Keileon I mean I'd think that like
- [00:45:34] Ziolang It really depends on Hirasu's motives
- [00:45:42] Keileon If they can't instantly vorpalize a planet
- [00:45:55] Keileon It'd be worthwhile to have allies that can utilize Mana
- [00:46:42] Ziolang I'll have to learn more about why their even doing this in the first place to understand what they are and aren't willing to do
- [00:46:47] Keileon lel
- [00:46:59] Shadow Don't you think it'd be the same thing to Vorpalize them without killing anyone and actually teaching them how to use Vorpal
- [00:47:38] Keileon Might work, yeah
- [00:47:57] Keileon For some reason my brain went "but they can't use mana if they can use vorpal"
- [00:48:00] Keileon Although
- [00:48:06] Keileon >Later generations
- [00:48:27] Keileon It might be more worthwhile letting them keep their Mana and otherwise keep a close eye on them
- [00:48:57] Shadow I don't know what you're implying with later generations
- [00:49:02] Ziolang >inb4 Euthora is allowed mana as a test sunject
- [00:49:13] Ziolang *subject
- [00:50:14] Keileon Okay like I'm not sure how the circuits work but eventually the ability to use normal Mana would be "bred out" in favor of optimizing Vorpal and we'd get a case of Season 0 Zio. What are they going to do if the Vodera run into a Mana planet they have trouble Vorpalizing?
- [00:50:32] Keileon Euthora could very well just be a source of shock troops
- [00:51:01] Ziolang They'll just keep Euthora and its mana under a microscope for research purposes
- [00:51:08] Ziolang lol idk
- [00:51:21] Keileon Like I don't mind either way, I'm just thinking in terms of practicality
- [00:53:14] Shadow What I mean is what good would it do to use Mana in that situation? They just want to Vorpalize everything. Throwing Mana at it really changes nothing because you can have the same effect with Vorpal entities--just without the Vorpalization
- [00:54:20] Keileon If they can't Vorpalize a planet right away, they would benefit from having Mana-using troops to subdue the locals until the planet CAN be Vorpalized
- [00:55:24] Shadow Except that they can already use Vorpal without having to be in a Vorpal environment. It's literally the same thing as just sending Vorpal-users in that case
- [00:56:19] Keileon I thought there was an issue with suddenly dumping a Vorpal user into a Mana environment, though I suppose even in Zio's case he adapted
- [00:57:05] Ziolang By now they'd be used to how that works. Plus, unlike Zio, they don't have Kivorde mucking everything up
- [00:57:19] Keileon Ahh right I forgot that detail
- [00:57:22] Shadow There would be an issue but they've been doing this for millenia
- [00:58:04] Shadow Another point in favor would be the fact that they cannot stay too long in a Mana environment as they risk "normalization" but that takes a lot of time
- [00:58:05] Ziolang They would probably use objects like Rilan's spear for Vorpal cycles as well
- [00:58:41] Ziolang Plus if Euthora is surrounded by Vorpal, wouldn't it eventually adapt anyway?
- [00:59:06] Keileon They're Vorpalizing the planets, not the... do they need to Vorpalize space too?
- [00:59:30] Shadow There's Mana in space, so
- [00:59:31] Keileon Or does space not have aether
- [00:59:32] Keileon o
- [00:59:34] Keileon okay
- [00:59:42] Keileon now how would that work
- [00:59:56] Shadow Literally nothing changes visibly
- [00:59:58] Shadow lol
- [01:00:07] Keileon Like would space normalize the planets, or the other way around, or...
- [01:00:09] Keileon oh
- [01:01:07] Ziolang You know they probably have to do some kind of containment field thing or dimensional shenanigans in order to vorpalize a planet
- [01:01:32] Shadow Besides, unless Vorpal is "infectious" or something, it'd be Mana that would normalize Vorpal, even if you got a space full of Vorpal surrounding a Mana planet
- [01:01:52] Shadow So a containment field would prevent that, yeah
- [01:05:59] Keileon So how much Mana would be needed to normalize a converted planet?
- [01:07:05] Shadow Not much, all things considered. Technically even a single potent of Mana could normalize an entire planet if given enough time
- [01:07:27] Keileon Then I think I know how Vindrgard would be fighting the Vodera Empire
- [01:08:19] Keileon Because, do remember, Vindrite dragons are made out of what boils down to crystal Mana. It's just a matter of getting through the containment field.
- [01:08:19] Shadow But obviously this would take ridiculously long; bigger quantities would increase the efficiency. You could even craft magic designed to accelerate or deliberately cause this process
- [01:08:48] Shadow Yeah, it's a logical conclusion, which is why I said that Crysians weren't necessarily fucked
- [01:08:49] Shadow lol
- [01:09:01] Shadow You can counter a counter
- [01:09:53] Keileon Because Vindrite dragons are fucking /powerful/ creatures, even aalone, and even once you kill it I don't think the Vodera would initially realize the dragon's there to normalize the planet
- [01:10:08] Keileon After a while they'd figure it out, but until then...
