- [2011-11-20 00:39:17] <Arkeus> Sure they do

- [2011-11-20 00:44:30] <Ironybot> Mostly Camella follow-up and an attempt at introducing her and Hillevi properly.
- [2011-11-20 00:45:14] <BUTTZ> If you're in the mood for a documentary this one covers Istanbul's sub-city
- [2011-11-20 00:45:15] <BUTTZ> http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/cities-of-the-underworld/
- [2011-11-20 00:47:47] <Arkeus> "Look, if I were a wizard all my whims could be made real with a thought. Surely I would have put you in a bikini at least once by now." We'd do it for the expected look on her face, of course. <= you do know some of us were wanting to do that if she comes to smets, right?
- [2011-11-20 00:47:49] <Arkeus> <_<
- [2011-11-20 00:47:53] <Arkeus> Well, not bikini
- [2011-11-20 00:47:57] <Arkeus> but you know what i mean
- [2011-11-20 00:48:37] <Guile> sure, if Armas isnt super attached to his limbs or anything
- [2011-11-20 00:48:46] <Arkeus> He blew up the building, but we all got out all right and shot him a bunch of times so I'm calling that a win for us. <= no mention of us throwing down the building on him?
- [2011-11-20 00:48:47] <Arkeus> awww
- [2011-11-20 00:48:54] <Arkeus> Guile: that's ok!
- [2011-11-20 00:49:37] <Guile> Im a bit disappointed bob didnt use my introductory line for Hillevi, I thought it was pretty good
- [2011-11-20 00:50:41] <Ironybot> We didn't really throw the building on him. I mean, we threw him out and then he got hit with it, but it's not like we were really able to direct it towards him in any fashion.
- [2011-11-20 00:51:10] <Guile> Im willing to take credit for random acts of physics
- [2011-11-20 00:53:08] <frogzilla> Super attached to his limbs? Bah, Armas seems to lose one every other week.
- [2011-11-20 00:53:39] <Guile> you're right. if she wants to make an impression, she'd have to go after our bits
- [2011-11-20 00:53:46] <Arkeus> awww :-(
- [2011-11-20 00:53:49] <Arkeus> That's kinky
- [2011-11-20 00:53:58] <Arkeus> (to say to camella)
- [2011-11-20 00:54:14] <Arkeus> Anyway, gotta agree with your post Ironybot
- [2011-11-20 00:54:21] <Arkeus> Pretty much everything there is good
- [2011-11-20 00:54:26] <Ironybot> Why, thank you.
- [2011-11-20 00:54:29] <BUTTZ> Are you guys talking about tormenting Camella again?
- [2011-11-20 00:55:52] <Ironybot> I don't think any of my suggested lines even hit particularly trollish, let alone torment.
- [2011-11-20 00:56:43] <Guile> we just went from irony to random creepy trollings
- [2011-11-20 00:57:09] <Arkeus> Well, goodnight folks
- [2011-11-20 00:57:13] <Arkeus> 8 Am here

- [2011-11-20 00:59:05] <Ironybot> Not often.
- [2011-11-20 01:00:09] <Ironybot> In other news, there is a palindrome quite soon if someone wishes to prepare a post to catch it.
- [2011-11-20 01:01:09] <Arkeus> yeah, both palindrome and 66666
- [2011-11-20 01:01:25] <Arkeus> if i wake up early enough, i'll try to catch one of the two
- [2011-11-20 01:01:34] <Ironybot> Ah, 66666 hadn't even occurred to me.
- [2011-11-20 01:01:57] <Ironybot> They are a mere twenty posts off. I don't think that there is much time for sleep here.
- [2011-11-20 01:02:07] <Arkeus> yeah, but it's 8 am
- [2011-11-20 01:02:18] <Arkeus> I'd prefer if someone else grabs them
- [2011-11-20 01:02:48] <Captain-Lightning> "Well, I've done it: I've had my heart to heart with Camella, caught up on how she's been doing and appraised her of where we stand right now. So now, with me all warmed up and in completely unrestrictive clothing, I wonder""
- [2011-11-20 01:02:53] <Captain-Lightning> DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN YOU BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOB
- [2011-11-20 01:03:34] <Ironybot> Note how my very first suggested follow-up line to that is that, had we the power, we would put her in a bikini?
- [2011-11-20 01:04:28] <Ironybot> One has to roll with these things.

- [2011-11-20 01:27:25] <TheBeardiestBob> So first let me confirm there will be no second update tonight, got sucked into Skyrim... again.
- [2011-11-20 01:27:31] <TheBeardiestBob> Goddamn that crack-like game.
- [2011-11-20 01:27:47] <Ironybot> So we surmised upon your earlier disconnection.
- [2011-11-20 01:27:56] <TheBeardiestBob> Well I just wanted to be clear.
- [2011-11-20 01:28:08] <Ralith> :(
- [2011-11-20 01:28:17] <Ironybot> Your clarity is appreciated.
- [2011-11-20 01:28:35] <BUTTZ> It's ok, we're inventing a list of must-see animes and b-movies to force on Amen
- [2011-11-20 01:28:49] <TheBeardiestBob> Well best of luck on that.
- [2011-11-20 01:28:55] <TheBeardiestBob> I was hoping I could catch shot
- [2011-11-20 01:29:02] <TheBeardiestBob> but again, not on here.
- [2011-11-20 01:29:14] <BUTTZ> Yeah I saw your reply to him in disc
- [2011-11-20 01:30:04] <TheBeardiestBob> I am getting increasingly tired of his refusal to see his own actions in a negative light, coupled with his... rather passive approach to participating in the thread and entitled sense that if he is unhappy everyone must be made aware.
- [2011-11-20 01:30:16] <TheBeardiestBob> I am likely overgeneralizing at this point but it bothers me nevertheless.
- [2011-11-20 01:30:28] <Ironybot> What is the PM function that you reference repeatedly in that discussion post? I'm not familiar with it.
- [2011-11-20 01:30:44] <TheBeardiestBob> Depends on the irc type you're using
- [2011-11-20 01:30:46] <BUTTZ> History channel documentary: http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/cities-of-the-underworld/
- [2011-11-20 01:31:03] <BUTTZ> The first episode's about Istanbul
- [2011-11-20 01:31:40] <TheBeardiestBob> I remember that show.
- [2011-11-20 01:31:46] <TheBeardiestBob> Host always seemed a bit off to me.
- [2011-11-20 01:32:37] <BUTTZ> It's that goofy 'stache and bald pate
- [2011-11-20 01:32:56] <Ralith> Ironybot: /msg name text
- [2011-11-20 01:33:03] <BUTTZ> If he spoke a half-octave deeper he'd be able to pull it off
- [2011-11-20 01:34:38] <Ironybot> Are you up for answering a few more random Guns for Hire questions, Bob?
- [2011-11-20 01:35:44] <MrTT> ""Look, if I were a wizard all my whims could be made real with a thought. Surely I would have put you in a bikini at least once by now."" - dammit
- [2011-11-20 01:35:45] <MrTT> why?
- [2011-11-20 01:36:02] <Ironybot> Because it would be fun to say?
- [2011-11-20 01:36:14] <Ironybot> Occasionally we make jokes.
- [2011-11-20 01:36:25] <Ironybot> Even more occasionally, they're even funny.
- [2011-11-20 01:36:26] <MrTT> its not that joking is bad
- [2011-11-20 01:36:50] <MrTT> its that it comes off more as creepy
- [2011-11-20 01:39:25] <Ironybot> That would depend heavily upon tone of voice and body language.
- [2011-11-20 01:40:15] <Wutenheimer> you know what the good part about that joke is?
- [2011-11-20 01:40:18] <Wutenheimer> we can do it.
- [2011-11-20 01:45:54] <Arkeus> 366660, huh
- [2011-11-20 01:46:02] <Arkeus> And i couldn't sleep
- [2011-11-20 01:46:14] <Ironybot> My sympathies.
- [2011-11-20 01:46:29] <Arkeus> Someone wants to post 366663 and i edit for 366666?
- [2011-11-20 01:48:50] <Ironybot> I will post a minor edit for 366663, if I don't miss it.
- [2011-11-20 01:50:34] <TheBeardiestBob> ....Dude
- [2011-11-20 01:50:50] <Ironybot> Yes?
- [2011-11-20 01:51:02] <TheBeardiestBob> M'iaq the liar just stole my Skyforge Battleaxe when I put it down in the outworld whilst inventory adjusting.
- [2011-11-20 01:51:05] <TheBeardiestBob> And... ran off.
- [2011-11-20 01:51:08] <TheBeardiestBob> up a mountain.
- [2011-11-20 01:51:19] <TheBeardiestBob> ...I have no weapon now.
- [2011-11-20 01:51:23] <TheBeardiestBob> what the fuck just happened.
- [2011-11-20 01:51:27] <Ironybot> I hope you learned to fight unarmed.
- [2011-11-20 01:51:44] <TheBeardiestBob> That's what this level's perk is for-and I'm not even half way.
- [2011-11-20 01:51:47] <TheBeardiestBob> ...Aaaah....
- [2011-11-20 01:51:48] <TheBeardiestBob> Hm.
- [2011-11-20 01:52:09] <BUTTZ> Oh that scamp
- [2011-11-20 01:52:18] <TheBeardiestBob> I'm not..... really sure how this is going to-oh yes wonderful of COURSE a dragon scream in the middle of the blizzard and battle music
- [2011-11-20 01:52:29] <TheBeardiestBob> Hold on
- [2011-11-20 01:52:51] <Arkeus> ahahhaahahahhah
- [2011-11-20 01:52:56] <Arkeus> This sounds awesome
- [2011-11-20 01:53:10] <Arkeus> Ironybot: 366663 is real soon, so prepare your edit
- [2011-11-20 01:53:30] <Ironybot> Preparations are complete.
- [2011-11-20 01:54:26] <TheBeardiestBob> .....Well, that was this character's first encounter with an Elder dragon.
- [2011-11-20 01:54:33] <TheBeardiestBob> ...At level 17.
- [2011-11-20 01:54:38] <TheBeardiestBob> How did THAT happen?
- [2011-11-20 01:54:47] <TheBeardiestBob> I thought they only popped up 30 plus?
- [2011-11-20 01:54:57] <TheBeardiestBob> Did M'Iaq set this up?
- [2011-11-20 01:55:08] <TheBeardiestBob> Does a bitch kitty need a punishment shower?
- [2011-11-20 01:55:11] <Arkeus> and damn it someone posted 366661 in gfh then delted
- [2011-11-20 01:55:12] <Arkeus> not fun
- [2011-11-20 01:55:19] <TheBeardiestBob> Am I going to need to get a pussy wet?
- [2011-11-20 01:55:24] <Arkeus> lol
- [2011-11-20 01:55:34] <Arkeus> This kahjiit owned you
- [2011-11-20 01:55:49] <TheBeardiestBob> Damn, out of innuendo, and yes M'Iaq did rape me truly effectively.
- [2011-11-20 01:55:50] <Arkeus> Btw, my new thief that i made this moring is already level 12 Oo
- [2011-11-20 01:56:01] <Arkeus> I just almost died from goddam hired thugs
- [2011-11-20 01:56:35] <TheBeardiestBob> Because you are a stealth build

- [2011-11-20 02:03:37] <Ironybot> Arkeus, there's the palindrome.
- [2011-11-20 02:03:51] <BUTTZ> MrTT I'm fairly certain Bob said we already did tell her Armas is a practicioner, not wizard
- [2011-11-20 02:04:24] <MrTT> stealth builds always get raped in games
- [2011-11-20 02:04:42] <MrTT> they always throw a boss you must defeat via normal combat
- [2011-11-20 02:04:51] <MrTT> and can't bypass or kill with the environment
- [2011-11-20 02:05:30] <Arkeus> Ironybot: thks
- [2011-11-20 02:05:33] <Arkeus> did you add anything?
- [2011-11-20 02:06:23] <Ironybot> Minor note that we should look at the souls of everyone and try to pick out anything interesting. Something might come up that's worth investigating in the souls of Ito's new students, one never knows.
- [2011-11-20 02:07:19] <Ironybot> Also, we should be able to tell how experienced someone is/how much life has thrown at them with a glance, these days; I didn't actually note that, but presumably it will come up if necessary.
- [2011-11-20 02:07:48] <Arkeus> Yeah, i talked about that in my own post
- [2011-11-20 02:07:52] <Arkeus> Before Edit
- [2011-11-20 02:08:04] <Arkeus> I'll say it in your words, too
- [2011-11-20 02:09:35] <Ironybot> I basically stole the idea from others' suggestions, but I thought it was worth emphasizing, and I usually try to post a complete course of action such that all other posts could be ignored and I'd be happy with the result.
- [2011-11-20 02:09:35] <Arkeus> BUTTZ, was it you who posted and deleted?

- [2011-11-20 02:09:53] <Arkeus> 'early'?
- [2011-11-20 02:10:00] <BUTTZ> I had a half-finished post
- [2011-11-20 02:10:03] <Arkeus> Ah
- [2011-11-20 02:10:25] <Ironybot> Do you want to take 366666, if you've got something substantial and new?
- [2011-11-20 02:10:28] <Arkeus> I am going to try and grab 366666, but don't hesitate to go for it too
- [2011-11-20 02:10:42] <MrTT> "Also, we should be able to tell how experienced someone is" - THEIR POWER LEVEL IS OVER NINE THOUSAND!
- [2011-11-20 02:10:52] <MrTT> lol
- [2011-11-20 02:10:54] <BUTTZ> Just as long as someone in GFH gets it I don't care
- [2011-11-20 02:11:09] <Ironybot> Oddly enough, that's pretty much exactly what we can tell these days.
- [2011-11-20 02:11:26] <BUTTZ> Maybe it might be wise to look around the grounds on the way out, and look for places someone staking the joint out would be posted
- [2011-11-20 02:11:56] <BUTTZ> We know they've been watching Armas since at least the incident in the first dojo
- [2011-11-20 02:12:11] <BUTTZ> They'd be dumb to not be watching Ito and Camella too, since they're tied to Armas
- [2011-11-20 02:12:20] <Arkeus> indeed
- [2011-11-20 02:12:39] <Ironybot> I found it interesting that Bob noted the Russians and Hillevi must have looked like our bodyguards as we walked around- perhaps a not-so-subtle hint that we are being watched by someone who would draw that conclusion.
- [2011-11-20 02:12:49] <BUTTZ> Well they're all big
- [2011-11-20 02:12:57] <Ironybot> So are we.
- [2011-11-20 02:13:13] <BUTTZ> Lyubov's the smallest person of the bunch
- [2011-11-20 02:13:36] <BUTTZ> Armas is dressed in a pimping pimp fighting suit, so he's the focal point
- [2011-11-20 02:13:42] <Ironybot> What was Lyubov's distinguishing characteristic?
- [2011-11-20 02:13:47] <BUTTZ> Vigilance
- [2011-11-20 02:13:56] <BUTTZ> Always on the look out for problems
- [2011-11-20 02:13:57] <Ironybot> Ah.
- [2011-11-20 02:14:58] <Ironybot> POST TIME NOW
- [2011-11-20 02:15:11] <Arkeus> Got it
- [2011-11-20 02:15:15] <MrTT> its amazing how well informed the goverment is
- [2011-11-20 02:15:17] <Arkeus> sorry, took me a while
- [2011-11-20 02:15:18] <MrTT> they know fucking EVERYTHING
- [2011-11-20 02:15:29] <MrTT> well, not everything but a lotathing
- [2011-11-20 02:15:29] <Arkeus> i was typing something else
- [2011-11-20 02:15:37] <BUTTZ> MrTT they're not full government though
- [2011-11-20 02:15:56] <BUTTZ> They were a third-party mortal brokerage operating with government blessing
- [2011-11-20 02:16:09] <BUTTZ> So they could use deniable techniques
- [2011-11-20 02:16:23] <Ironybot> I wonder if they kept backups somewhere.
- [2011-11-20 02:16:55] <BUTTZ> Or so I surmise, from the sub-text of the information we got from SM, the nature of the attack, Blackbeard's involvement, and the fact that Armas hasn't been arrested for the murder
- [2011-11-20 02:17:24] <Ironybot> After a certain level of paranoia, backups start to be seen as too much of a vulnerability to make the reliability worth it. Otherwise, obviously any competent organization would have them. So the question is how paranoid they are.
- [2011-11-20 02:17:58] <BUTTZ> A good back-up has just as much invested in its security as the working copy
- [2011-11-20 02:18:00] <Arkeus> Well
- [2011-11-20 02:18:06] <Arkeus> This building didn't officialy exist
- [2011-11-20 02:18:17] <Arkeus> It also seemed to not be really 'there'
- [2011-11-20 02:18:20] <Arkeus> also, it was OLD
- [2011-11-20 02:19:12] <BUTTZ> Was it old? Not sure on that point. It also had an extensive staff of mundanes, a shitload of modern fittings, and lots of wards to make it hard to notice magically.
- [2011-11-20 02:19:22] <BUTTZ> That's all stuff you can buy
- [2011-11-20 02:20:36] <Arkeus> Keep in mind the 'wards' were built in the very building
- [2011-11-20 02:20:42] <Arkeus> In the goddam stone
- [2011-11-20 02:20:52] <BUTTZ> You ever work with brick and masonry?
- [2011-11-20 02:20:58] <Ironybot> We don't know how hard that is to do.
- [2011-11-20 02:21:07] <Ironybot> For all we know, it's easy and inexpensive.
- [2011-11-20 02:21:11] <BUTTZ> It's not impossible to put shit in there when you're doing retrofit work.
- [2011-11-20 02:21:17] <Arkeus> mmmh
- [2011-11-20 02:21:32] <Arkeus> Anyway, i don't think it was affiliated with the government at all
- [2011-11-20 02:21:59] <BUTTZ> They had sanction from the government, SM specifically mentioned he couldn't do anything in that location because of an agreement with the mortal government
- [2011-11-20 02:22:06] <Ironybot> We might be able to discover this by talking to Hafaz and friends... which we have still not done.
- [2011-11-20 02:22:16] <BUTTZ> We're doing that next though
- [2011-11-20 02:22:23] <Arkeus> https://www.xkcd.com/ so true
- [2011-11-20 02:22:36] <Arkeus> BUTTZ: he said government?
- [2011-11-20 02:22:39] <Arkeus> i thought he said an agremeent
- [2011-11-20 02:22:43] <Arkeus> checking
- [2011-11-20 02:22:57] <BUTTZ> That stuck out with me, I'm fairly certain he specifically mentioned mortal government
- [2011-11-20 02:23:00] <BUTTZ> I could be wrong
- [2011-11-20 02:23:27] <Arkeus> >[SM]"Sadly, there is nothing to bargain with here-I know the address you speak of, and it is one of a small number in Turkey that... does not exist on paper. Given our deal with the Turkish Government... there is nothing we could offer that would not besmirch our name with the taint of sub-par goods." <= you are right
- [2011-11-20 02:23:30] <BUTTZ> Man we are going to have a grand time teasing Hafaz before we lay it on him that all we want is for him to take jobs with us now and then.
- [2011-11-20 02:23:48] <Arkeus> Actually, what i want from him is contacts
- [2011-11-20 02:24:06] <BUTTZ> Well whatever we get from him isn't going to be as expensive as he's imagining
- [2011-11-20 02:24:19] <Arkeus> heh yeah
- [2011-11-20 02:24:27] <Ironybot> I want him and his to full-on join our corp, bringing their talents and contacts with them on a permanent basis.
- [2011-11-20 02:24:39] <Wutenheimer> so, you guys find the BEAR CAVE yet?
- [2011-11-20 02:24:39] <Arkeus> Ironybot: not immediately though
- [2011-11-20 02:24:44] <Ironybot> Why not immediately?
- [2011-11-20 02:24:46] <Arkeus> Wutenheimer: that sounds nice
- [2011-11-20 02:24:48] <Wutenheimer> it's a cave with 11 bears in it.
- [2011-11-20 02:24:53] <Wutenheimer> and nothing else
- [2011-11-20 02:25:06] <BUTTZ> "So Hafaz I hope you understand how bad an idea it is to write blank checks. I mean, you bought the full-service extraction, healing and everything, and you got it. But that's not really cheap."
- [2011-11-20 02:25:14] <Arkeus> Ironybot: i think it's better if he fives us contact and slowly goes to ur group
- [2011-11-20 02:25:54] <BUTTZ> "But I'm not going to screw you; I'm a believer in the fundamentally fair deal. So let's make a deal."
- [2011-11-20 02:26:28] <Ironybot> Why is it better to move slowly on this? "I saved your life; you take a job working for me" seems like a fairly clean, fair trade to me.
- [2011-11-20 02:27:17] <BUTTZ> Yeah I really agree here
- [2011-11-20 02:27:22] <BUTTZ> Hafaz knows Armas already
- [2011-11-20 02:52:42] -->| AlratanMobile (~alratan@EBA6E553.95AB0D55.36443E58.IP) has joined #golemquest
- [2011-11-20 02:57:03] <AlratanMobile> I take it there is not second update for Saturday?
- [2011-11-20 02:57:20] <Arkeus> [20-11 | 08:27:08] * TheBeardiestBob (cgiirc@Rizon-782A7F7C.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined #Golemquest
- [2011-11-20 02:57:20] <Arkeus> [20-11 | 08:27:26] <TheBeardiestBob> So first let me confirm there will be no second update tonight, got sucked into Skyrim... again.
- [2011-11-20 02:57:20] <Arkeus> [20-11 | 08:27:32] <TheBeardiestBob> Goddamn that crack-like game.
- [2011-11-20 02:57:24] <Ironybot> Indeed not.
- [2011-11-20 02:58:20] <Ralith> Wutenheimer: I found a cave with two bears in it and nothing else!
- [2011-11-20 02:58:23] <Ralith> well there might have been one chest
- [2011-11-20 03:00:38] <Wutenheimer> while cool, its not 11 bears
- [2011-11-20 03:00:39] <AlratanMobile> Something I don't get about recent posts
- [2011-11-20 03:01:03] <AlratanMobile> Why do people hate the idea of operational security?
- [2011-11-20 03:01:44] <Arkeus> What do you mean by Operational Security?
- [2011-11-20 03:02:52] <Ironybot> No one hates the idea of operational security. Many people have a reckless disregard for its dictates and a lack of respect for its necessity, but I don't think any posters actively hate it.
- [2011-11-20 03:03:18] <AlratanMobile> We walk into a location we've never been in before
- [2011-11-20 03:03:29] <AlratanMobile> With people we don't know very well
- [2011-11-20 03:03:39] <AlratanMobile> And immediately tell all our secrets
- [2011-11-20 03:03:50] <AlratanMobile> Including many people would kill to learn
- [2011-11-20 03:04:31] <AlratanMobile> Right after we learn that the Turkish government already knows far, far too much about us
- [2011-11-20 03:04:51] <AlratanMobile> Without checking for surveillance
- [2011-11-20 03:05:04] <AlratanMobile> magical or mundane
- [2011-11-20 03:05:34] <AlratanMobile> Or even considering if the people we're talking to have any need whatsoever to know what we're telling them
- [2011-11-20 03:05:56] <AlratanMobile> Or even whether the secrets we're carelessly leaking are ours to give away
- [2011-11-20 03:06:13] <Arkeus> One thing to note is that J'zargo steals your items. No, seriously, anything you give him vanishes.
- [2011-11-20 03:06:13] <Arkeus> Be careful when using him as Companion. He's very powerful, but... yeah. Don't use him as a pack mule.
- [2011-11-20 03:06:13] <Arkeus> I'd call it a glitch, if it wasn't for the fact that he clearly implies through innuendo that not only does he constantly steal things from the College, but that he's interested in stealing things from you. As it stands, I find that surprising but not at all beyond reason. I'd believe it. So I guess we can add that in as a reason to not take him along for packmule duty. <= fucker
- [2011-11-20 03:06:26] <AlratanMobile> E.g. Anything about the Valkonens, there home or there powers
- [2011-11-20 03:06:53] <Arkeus> We didn't say any of that though AlratanMobile
- [2011-11-20 03:07:12] <Arkeus> In fact, Armas was very very careful into manipulating Camella into believing stuff
- [2011-11-20 03:07:22] <Arkeus> Deceptive Truthfulness FTW
- [2011-11-20 03:07:33] <Arkeus> Also, keep in mind we are at Ito's- this place is secure
- [2011-11-20 03:07:41] <AlratanMobile> That's because Bob was kind
- [2011-11-20 03:07:54] <Arkeus> No, that's because Armas is that way
- [2011-11-20 03:08:00] <AlratanMobile> The suggestion was for "the full story of our trip"
- [2011-11-20 03:08:23] <AlratanMobile> We also have no way of knowing that Ito's is secure
- [2011-11-20 03:08:38] <AlratanMobile> Is there a laser microphone pointed at a window?
- [2011-11-20 03:08:48] <Arkeus> We were told inquest that Camella had made a fortress out of it
- [2011-11-20 03:09:09] <AlratanMobile> Does Camella know how to defeat magitech surveillance?
- [2011-11-20 03:09:10] <Arkeus> And we know inquest that Camella is MUCH more up to date than ourself when it comes for checking bugs
- [2011-11-20 03:09:16] <Arkeus> Better than us
- [2011-11-20 03:09:40] <AlratanMobile> How would she know what a magitech or magic bug could do
- [2011-11-20 03:09:55] <AlratanMobile> Given she's ignorant of magic
- [2011-11-20 03:10:30] <AlratanMobile> As bad, as know associates of us, and given that we know there are multiple attempts per day to infiltrate the mansion
- [2011-11-20 03:10:41] <AlratanMobile> By magical creatures
- [2011-11-20 03:10:47] <Arkeus> She is better than us at that
- [2011-11-20 03:10:57] <Arkeus> And she has dealt with magical creatures getting in it, yes
- [2011-11-20 03:11:11] <AlratanMobile> How?
- [2011-11-20 03:11:32] <AlratanMobile> Can she create wards to stop incorporeal creatures?
- [2011-11-20 03:11:46] <AlratanMobile> Or to prevent something the size of a beetle coming in
- [2011-11-20 03:12:27] <Arkeus> We would have noticed incorporal creatures
- [2011-11-20 03:12:38] <Arkeus> And she sweeps for bugs regularly
- [2011-11-20 03:13:01] <Arkeus> Anyway, there is a difference between operational security and using security as an excuse to be paranoid
- [2011-11-20 03:13:36] <Ironybot> In answer to why I suggested that action, I judge Armas' mental health to be fragile and his social relationships to be largely unhealthy; further, I intend to work closely with Camella in the future and do not wish to risk things like "oh Armas is a cannibal" or "oh Armas does grunt work for a dark god" coming out and disrupting our relationship with her at a critical time. I was willing to...
- [2011-11-20 03:13:36] <Ironybot> ...gamble that anyone capable of defeating both Camella's known tendency to turn her homes into fortresses and our own supernatural sensory abilities, as well as those of Hillevi, would be able to become well-informed on us and our activities through other routes in any case should they care to, due to their obvious resources.
- [2011-11-20 03:13:38] <AlratanMobile> It's not paranoia when we know our property sees multiple infiltration attempts by magical creatures per day
- [2011-11-20 03:14:02] <AlratanMobile> Our supernatural senses are limited
- [2011-11-20 03:14:11] <AlratanMobile> They can only detect creatures we see
- [2011-11-20 03:14:29] <Ironybot> Or those which focus on us using any of several common senses, yes.
- [2011-11-20 03:14:30] <AlratanMobile> Or use sight as their primary means of perception
- [2011-11-20 03:14:38] <AlratanMobile> No, only sight
- [2011-11-20 03:14:45] <Ironybot> No, hearing as well.
- [2011-11-20 03:14:47] <AlratanMobile> We wouldn't detect a blind person
- [2011-11-20 03:14:52] <AlratanMobile> Who uses hearing
- [2011-11-20 03:15:22] <AlratanMobile> I specifically asked about that
- [2011-11-20 03:15:40] <AlratanMobile> Back when we first realised that it wasn't any attention
- [2011-11-20 03:15:46] <Arkeus> When?
- [2011-11-20 03:16:04] <Arkeus> Because i am pretty sure it's been REPEATDLY said that hearing was one of the ways we used our attention-sense
- [2011-11-20 03:16:05] <AlratanMobile> When the water manipulator child saw us
- [2011-11-20 03:16:08] <Arkeus> one of the MAIN watys
- [2011-11-20 03:16:11] <Arkeus> ways
- [2011-11-20 03:16:19] <AlratanMobile> Hearing is one of the ways we use it
- [2011-11-20 03:16:24] <Arkeus> Our hearing is also gettign a lot better
- [2011-11-20 03:16:26] <Ironybot> It explicitly uses both sight and hearing to detect Attention.
- [2011-11-20 03:16:28] <AlratanMobile> But it's very much secondary to sight
- [2011-11-20 03:16:41] <Ironybot> Sorry, not to detect, as forms of attention which it detects.
- [2011-11-20 03:16:44] <Arkeus> As in, much better than human
- [2011-11-20 03:16:56] <Ironybot> Our description of it to Einrik was "predominately built around sight and hearing as the senses it focuses on."
- [2011-11-20 03:17:14] <AlratanMobile> I tried that argument with Bob as well
- [2011-11-20 03:17:26] <Arkeus> Yeah, and we couldn't detect the domoinov because it didn't have sounds or something
- [2011-11-20 03:17:28] <Arkeus> well, not quite
- [2011-11-20 03:17:32] <Arkeus> let me get the quote
- [2011-11-20 03:17:34] <AlratanMobile> Whilst we can detect hearing
- [2011-11-20 03:17:46] <AlratanMobile> We can only detect it from
- [2011-11-20 03:17:52] <AlratanMobile> people who are sight primary
- [2011-11-20 03:18:14] <AlratanMobile> So we can detect the Hearing based Attention of a person who can see
- [2011-11-20 03:18:15] <MrTT> oh yea, camella caught a cat burgler
- [2011-11-20 03:18:18] <MrTT> an actual magic cat
- [2011-11-20 03:18:20] <MrTT> that burgles
- [2011-11-20 03:18:25] <MrTT> and made it her minion
- [2011-11-20 03:18:29] <AlratanMobile> but not from a blind person
- [2011-11-20 03:19:40] <AlratanMobile> So, she can catch cat sized things
- [2011-11-20 03:19:48] <AlratanMobile> What about mosquito sized
- [2011-11-20 03:19:58] <Arkeus> Nevertheless, this spirit has no eyes or ears to track or decieve-and a great deal of my Wyld Goblin Arts are rendered useless by this. In fact, now that I think about it that probably means All non-corporeal, spirit-based entities would be able to ignore my stealth abilities, since the Arts rely on deceiving actual eyes and ears.
- [2011-11-20 03:20:08] <Ironybot> Camella caught what the fuck now? Why didn't she mention that to us?
- [2011-11-20 03:20:22] <AlratanMobile> Why would she?
- [2011-11-20 03:20:35] <Ironybot> Because we were swapping tales of action and excitement?
- [2011-11-20 03:20:45] |<-- MrTT has left irc.rizon.net (Quit: Leaving)
- [2011-11-20 03:20:54] <Arkeus> She might have, if we had asked bob
- [2011-11-20 03:21:02] <Arkeus> he did mention lots of stuff about what she dd
- [2011-11-20 03:21:12] <AlratanMobile> She's a trained special forces operative who knows that blabbing secrets is dangerous for both the listener and hearer
- [2011-11-20 03:21:16] <Arkeus> And yeah, we can deceive people who are about hearing
- [2011-11-20 03:21:36] <Arkeus> AlratanMobile: she told us a LOT, AlratanMobile
- [2011-11-20 03:21:37] <AlratanMobile> Arkeus: no, we can't, but I can't get to may computer
- [2011-11-20 03:21:48] <Arkeus> It's flat out said inquest
- [2011-11-20 03:21:59] <Arkeus> It may be harder for armas than for sight
- [2011-11-20 03:22:03] <Arkeus> but that's how it works
- [2011-11-20 03:22:05] <AlratanMobile> I specifically asked in IRC about a blind man
- [2011-11-20 03:22:16] <AlratanMobile> And was told no
- [2011-11-20 03:22:35] <AlratanMobile> Hearing only works on creatures who are sight primary
- [2011-11-20 03:22:35] <Ironybot> We can rehash this query next time Bob comes around instead of bickering about it.
- [2011-11-20 03:22:56] <Ironybot> And ask if Camella told us epic tales of catching and enslaving magical felines.
- [2011-11-20 03:23:14] <Ironybot> In any case, for now I am off to bed. Be seeing you.

- [2011-11-20 12:35:24] <Arkeus> We should destroy the file on Armas. Burn it down right here? Eat it?
- [2011-11-20 12:35:24] <Arkeus> The best way to ensure it total destruction would probably be through Amen. <= worse way, he means :-(
- [2011-11-20 12:40:31] <Alratan> how about simply giving the files to SB to keep in the Dark

- [2011-11-20 12:42:37] <Alratan> He may be
- [2011-11-20 12:42:41] <Arkeus> We should also keep in mind they aren't ours

- [2011-11-20 12:45:54] <Arkeus> Pretty sure there are ways
- [2011-11-20 12:45:57] <Alratan> If we'd focused on blood rather than soul magic it might have been possible
- [2011-11-20 12:46:04] <Arkeus> Pretty sure if we did order him to, he would acquiesce
- [2011-11-20 12:46:17] <Arkeus> Alratan: that would have been worse, i think

- [2011-11-20 12:46:33] <Alratan> It's the risks
- [2011-11-20 12:46:48] <Alratan> if the mind reading is an irrevocable consequence of ingesting his blood
- [2011-11-20 12:46:53] <Guile> its not like this file is alone, guys
- [2011-11-20 12:47:10] <Arkeus> Alratan: it's not irrevocable
- [2011-11-20 12:47:12] <Alratan> then the only way to execute our order may be to perma-kill us
- [2011-11-20 12:47:15] <Arkeus> he has to sustain the link
- [2011-11-20 12:47:17] <Guile> they must have backup copies, for redundancy if nothing else

- [2011-11-20 12:48:17] <Arkeus> Alratan: we don't, but unless he does have to tell us the truth on things he can tell the truth about, we can't do anything about him at all

- [2011-11-20 13:18:06] * InsufferableMystic flips out
- [2011-11-20 13:18:21] <Ironybot> I am not incredibly keen on explicitly inviting Camella to live in our house, either.
- [2011-11-20 13:18:42] <Arkeus> InsufferableMystic: Dkay
- [2011-11-20 13:18:48] <Arkeus> yeah
- [2011-11-20 13:18:55] <Arkeus> Also, flat out lying about Blackbeard
- [2011-11-20 13:19:13] <Arkeus> Or warning her about hillevi like that
- [2011-11-20 13:19:22] <Arkeus> sounds a bit nasty
- [2011-11-20 13:19:43] <Ironybot> Yeah, she needs a proper introduction to Hillevi, not a quiet word of warning.
- [2011-11-20 13:20:16] <Guile> the twins are kinda interesting. All that power, no restraint or even forethought
- [2011-11-20 13:20:41] <Arkeus> It's interesting to note they weren't that much mroe 'powerful' than some of Stallon's tribes
- [2011-11-20 13:20:50] <InsufferableMystic> And we have thier hearts
- [2011-11-20 13:20:51] <Guile> the Valks? They kicked our ass.
- [2011-11-20 13:20:56] <Arkeus> Though i expect their bloodlines to be quite a bit more trained and better
- [2011-11-20 13:21:04] <InsufferableMystic> Oh other twins
- [2011-11-20 13:21:17] <Arkeus> Guile: i am talking about their souls here
- [2011-11-20 13:21:18] <Alratan> Doesn't Valk take up two slots, and Sami one?
- [2011-11-20 13:21:37] <Guile> dunno. I know Markku takes up 5
- [2011-11-20 13:21:49] <Alratan> Dkay has a good point about Camella's leg though
- [2011-11-20 13:21:57] <Guile> maybe the bloodline compounds again when they start mastering a new aspect of it?
- [2011-11-20 13:22:01] <Arkeus> >[EV][Einrik][In Finnish]"However, it was his Soul's Shadow that was most accurate. It correctly noted it was not one energy source, but two massive sources, surrounded by some number of much smaller forces-at best of an equivalent spiritual strength to... my younger brothers. I would say I am impressed-but given your shadow can only percieve the physical through magical means, it does make
- [2011-11-20 13:22:01] <Arkeus> sense it is the most... discerning of you two now."
- [2011-11-20 13:22:19] <Arkeus> Sami is a compounded bloodline, iirc
- [2011-11-20 13:22:29] <Ironybot> I don't know how we would tactfully approach "hey, I can cut off your leg and then grow it back better than you have it right now".
- [2011-11-20 13:22:30] <Arkeus> Not sure Valks take two slots
- [2011-11-20 13:22:36] <Alratan> Sami is compounded, but only the strnegth of a regular non-compounded bloodline
- [2011-11-20 13:22:52] <Arkeus> Unsure about that either
- [2011-11-20 13:23:01] <Alratan> IronyBot: offer to undo the wizards trolling of her
- [2011-11-20 13:23:07] <Arkeus> Keep in mind Sami is about soul magic, which means that is uses soul much more effectively
- [2011-11-20 13:23:28] <Alratan> does it?
- [2011-11-20 13:23:38] <Ironybot> Also, how long does it take for healing to consider a graft part of her actual body? How firmly did the wizard attach it, in magical terms?
- [2011-11-20 13:23:43] <InsufferableMystic> I want to look a Camella's leg, see if the soul is any different in relation to that
- [2011-11-20 13:23:45] <Alratan> it means we can do different stuff to souls
- [2011-11-20 13:23:53] <Ironybot> These are questions worth investigating before we jump to conclusions.
- [2011-11-20 13:23:54] <Arkeus> with soul
- [2011-11-20 13:23:57] <Arkeus> not just to soul
- [2011-11-20 13:24:09] <Arkeus> Yeah
- [2011-11-20 13:24:20] <Arkeus> Anyway, can someone make a new post for that?
- [2011-11-20 13:24:30] <Arkeus> I can't edit, nor can Ironybot
- [2011-11-20 13:25:12] <Ironybot> We are both perfectly capable of coming up with new constructive points and posting them together with any desired SUSTs as a second post, though.
- [2011-11-20 13:25:55] <Arkeus> Not... at ALL what I was expecting-but I can work with it.
- [2011-11-20 13:25:55] <Arkeus> "Be fair-just because I'm bad at it doesn't mean I'm averse to physical combat-I do rather regularly make attempts."
- [2011-11-20 13:25:55] <Arkeus> I frown in thought.
- [2011-11-20 13:25:55] <Arkeus> "...Actually I think there's a bit of a clear correlation between me getting in a close quarter's fight-and me getting respectably wounded. ...Huh. The POINT, though, is that I just happen to like beating things up with words and fists and weapons. I hope to soon add 'and with my shadow' to that soon enough, actually. Think of me as an equal opportunity ass-kicker.... that's just not that
- [2011-11-20 13:25:55] <Arkeus> good at the actual literal ass-kicking." <= Sometimes bob crack me up
- [2011-11-20 13:26:28] <Ironybot> Who were we talking to at that point?
- [2011-11-20 13:26:59] <Arkeus> If someone could try and make a good reasoning on EXACTLY how to try to merge our kas pin/SotG/Soul-Sensing/Attention/Hearing/Chakra-from-Ito it could be interesting, yes
- [2011-11-20 13:27:08] <Arkeus> Ironybot: still the two bros
- [2011-11-20 13:27:49] <InsufferableMystic> Fluidity

- [2011-11-20 13:28:14] <InsufferableMystic> Then Icy stabs
- [2011-11-20 13:28:17] <Arkeus> Yes, but also the frame of mind Armas must get
- [2011-11-20 13:28:40] <Alratan> Kas Pin/SotG is obvious
- [2011-11-20 13:28:43] <Arkeus> Also, the steps he must go to in order to do that
- [2011-11-20 13:28:43] <InsufferableMystic> Water and Ice and lightning is what his mind must be
- [2011-11-20 13:28:49] <Arkeus> :-)
- [2011-11-20 13:28:52] <InsufferableMystic> A fighting style of the Storm
- [2011-11-20 13:28:56] <Alratan> although we need to spar with Hillevi
- [2011-11-20 13:29:01] <Arkeus> Alratan: yes, the problem is in addign hearing and chakra
- [2011-11-20 13:29:44] <Alratan> hearing is, I think impossible for now
- [2011-11-20 13:30:00] <Alratan> we need to get more training from the goblins for that
- [2011-11-20 13:30:45] <Ironybot> You know, Camella didn't actually promise to keep what we told her to herself. Unless she did so implicitly, anyway; all she said was "I'll make any promise I have to if it means you'll give straight answers."- without actually making any promise.
- [2011-11-20 13:30:59] <Alratan> IronyBot: yes
- [2011-11-20 13:31:01] <Ironybot> Paranoia demands that we fix that.
- [2011-11-20 13:31:05] <Alratan> she made no promises at all
- [2011-11-20 13:31:21] <Ironybot> I am very surprised that Armas, adept of goblinic dealing, didn't pick up on that right away.
- [2011-11-20 13:31:36] <Arkeus> Alratan: our hearing is flat superhuman right now
- [2011-11-20 13:31:40] <Alratan> and
- [2011-11-20 13:31:46] <Alratan> what dioes that has to do with anything at all
- [2011-11-20 13:31:59] <Arkeus> Ironybot: we don't have power to enforce promises
- [2011-11-20 13:32:03] <Alratan> the Attention sense is about reading observers soul
- [2011-11-20 13:32:09] <Arkeus> So having her say she'll make any necessary promises is enough
- [2011-11-20 13:32:17] <Alratan> nothing at all to do with how well we hear ourselves
- [2011-11-20 13:32:24] <Ironybot> It doesn't matter if we have the power to enforce promises or not; the act of making the promise still carries a metaphysical significance.
- [2011-11-20 13:32:28] <Arkeus> Alratan, i am talking about how we can SEE souls
- [2011-11-20 13:32:33] <Arkeus> we should be able ot HEAR them too
- [2011-11-20 13:32:47] <Alratan> We need to use M7
- [2011-11-20 13:32:48] <Arkeus> and from that we could have triple-links with attention
- [2011-11-20 13:33:06] <Alratan> to convince ourselves that our soul sense isn't seeing
- [2011-11-20 13:33:08] <Ironybot> Amongst other things, being able to honestly call the violating party an oathbreaker if they don't keep to their word is rather important.
- [2011-11-20 13:33:10] <Alratan> it's healing
- [2011-11-20 13:33:16] <Alratan> sorry
- [2011-11-20 13:33:21] <Alratan> it's not hearing either
- [2011-11-20 13:33:33] <Alratan> but we can use any existing sense as a metaphor for it
- [2011-11-20 13:33:49] <Arkeus> indeed
- [2011-11-20 13:34:04] <Arkeus> Ironybot: yes, but i am sure that she did promise it
- [2011-11-20 13:34:09] <Arkeus> just not in the dialog we saw
- [2011-11-20 13:34:13] <Arkeus> We'll ask bob, though
- [2011-11-20 13:34:51] <Arkeus> Alratan: yes, the thing i am thinking of is having hearing/attention/sight all three working to feel souls

- [2011-11-20 13:35:02] <Arkeus> And maybe gettign it from three way at once will improve how it goes
- [2011-11-20 13:35:09] <Arkeus> more 'range'
- [2011-11-20 13:35:12] <InsufferableMystic> What was the eye chakra called?
- [2011-11-20 13:35:43] <InsufferableMystic> The Third Eye Chakra, I'mma going to try get us another eye
- [2011-11-20 13:35:56] <Arkeus> The Devil Eye, huh
- [2011-11-20 13:36:10] <Alratan> We really need to replace the missing perception from our second eye
- [2011-11-20 13:36:33] <InsufferableMystic> Three eyes makes two
- [2011-11-20 13:36:52] <InsufferableMystic> But what is that chakra called?
- [2011-11-20 13:37:11] <Alratan> ajna
- [2011-11-20 13:38:39] <Ironybot> I was hoping at one point that we could exploit that chakra's association with intuition to get ever so slightly precognitive. Didn't work out, unfortunately.
- [2011-11-20 13:38:52] <Ironybot> Now I'm left wondering where we can dredge up a prophecy spirit.
- [2011-11-20 13:39:29] <Arkeus> Ironybot: huh, it sort of seems to could work
- [2011-11-20 13:39:33] <Arkeus> it's just we don't know enough
- [2011-11-20 13:40:02] <Arkeus> Also, maybe we shouldn't completely cut off SB from chakra gain as he is recovering right now
- [2011-11-20 13:40:09] <Alratan> tough
- [2011-11-20 13:40:20] <Alratan> he's a big boy now
- [2011-11-20 13:40:27] <Alratan> he has his own chakra system and everything
- [2011-11-20 13:41:15] <Guile> he's a big boy, but he was put through the ringer just recently, and it behooves us to get him back up to speed and recovered as quickly as possible
- [2011-11-20 13:41:30] <Alratan> no, it behooves him to get himself back to speed
- [2011-11-20 13:41:44] <Alratan> {insert Randian quote here}
- [2011-11-20 13:41:52] <Guile> Wayward Wednesday, dude. I dont think its over yet.
- [2011-11-20 13:41:57] <Ironybot> He's our brother. It would be appropriate to watch his back.
- [2011-11-20 13:42:04] <Guile> I'd be a lot more comfortable with SB at our back again
- [2011-11-20 13:43:20] <Alratan> SB is, I think out of action for the rest of today whatever happens
- [2011-11-20 13:43:40] <InsufferableMystic> I only need the eye one and a torso and arm ones, he can have our crotch and legs
- [2011-11-20 13:43:48] <Arkeus> :-)
- [2011-11-20 13:43:49] <Guile> ...?
- [2011-11-20 13:43:51] <Arkeus> Good Good
- [2011-11-20 13:44:09] <Guile> But we never know when we might need the Muladra!
- [2011-11-20 13:44:10] <InsufferableMystic> Though it'd be better to fully focus... Ah
- [2011-11-20 13:44:32] <Guile> Left-hand Tantric rituals might have some real 'oomph' here
- [2011-11-20 13:44:49] <InsufferableMystic> Shadow, water, ice and lightening I can work with
- [2011-11-20 13:45:04] <Guile> also, guess I need to go back and see what weapons we're familiar with from kas pin
- [2011-11-20 13:45:10] <InsufferableMystic> Give me the nature of some chakra I'll connect them
- [2011-11-20 13:45:11] <Guile> to see how it might be integrated into SotG
- [2011-11-20 13:45:12] <Alratan> SB, as I say, does not need us to divert any chakra power to us
- [2011-11-20 13:46:06] <Arkeus> His scarred and oft-broken hand claps about my skull, blocking my vision, his fingers covering my ears as I go blind and deaf. I feel... something, tugging, pulling, prodding at my mind-and I heed Einrik's words, offering this other presence no resistance. I feel something not unlike a sharp headache-and start remembering things that never happened. Day after day spent working with puukko
- [2011-11-20 13:46:06] <Arkeus> and bear-spear, with sword and karttu, with cane and remmi. Night after night spent working in swamps and marshes, learning how to move more efficiently, tiring myself to exhaustion again and again as I ground that innate sense of how to move into my body. Months of working on Hipaisu, striking at nerve targets on dummies and eventually fellow disciples. I remember week upon week of working
- [2011-11-20 13:46:06] <Arkeus> with knife and spear, club and sickle, sword and staff, over and over facing foe after foe, spar after spar. I recall these fights that never were, with foes lacking faces, with stark and burning clarity, the familiarity of the styles movements burning new muscle memory into my body. Lastly, I feel several months, the sense of training... different, more modern-memories of working with a
- [2011-11-20 13:46:06] <Arkeus> bayonet, a style wholly different from my Taiahan experiment and limited Jukenjitsu training-and I soak it up like a sponge. Years of training, dozens, each and every bit of it impossibly intense, completely nonstop, a monstrous regime no normal human could complete-and I remember them, those years of false memory.
- [2011-11-20 13:46:17] <Arkeus> here guile

- [2011-11-20 13:47:41] <Guile> I was going back over the vacation arc. Its hilarious that we almost gained 'Earnestness level 1' trait, but then realized it worked much better if we just faked it all
- [2011-11-20 13:47:55] <Guile> we're already a grand master in that one, I think
- [2011-11-20 13:47:59] <Arkeus> yeah
- [2011-11-20 13:48:53] <Alratan> The Kas Pin training should, presumably, by a Level 3 combat trait on its own
- [2011-11-20 13:49:11] <Arkeus> Seems my instincts were right-so long as I put in self-effacing commentary, the fact I divulged information that normally I'd want to tactically withhold doesn't bother me-though only be dint of my own confidence the twins didn't pick up on it. ...I see now why Einrik feels he can't leave it to his brothers.... not exactly the brightest I've met. ...Oh well, doesn't make them bad people-and
- [2011-11-20 13:49:11] <Arkeus> I CAN'T make any retard-strength jokes, even though the fact I stand a good chance of saying it to their faces without them grasping it if I do it right nigh-irresistible.
- [2011-11-20 13:49:11] <Arkeus> -My shadow feels sad.
- [2011-11-20 13:49:11] <Arkeus> ...NO Retard jokes, dammit.
- [2011-11-20 13:49:11] <Arkeus> -I was not previously aware you could feel something pouting-but I feel my shadow pout here and now.
- [2011-11-20 13:49:13] <Arkeus> Aahahahahha
- [2011-11-20 13:49:26] <Arkeus> Alratan: multiple level 3s, i would say
- [2011-11-20 13:50:09] <Arkeus> That's why Kas Pin + SotG + Chakra + Soul sense + Trying to tie that in recurve fashion to hearing could net us a increase right here
- [2011-11-20 13:50:21] <Arkeus> Especially if we tie it to something Devil Punny
- [2011-11-20 13:50:27] <Arkeus> As 366666
- [2011-11-20 13:51:19] <Alratan> I'm much, much more interested in trying to leverage our ability to read where people are going to look next into an ability to read where they're going to attack next
- [2011-11-20 13:51:39] <Guile> I think bob said we were level 4 with piercing weapons, level 2 with slashing
- [2011-11-20 13:51:50] <Arkeus> Also TIM, we now have 92 95% percentile Human flexibility (we got a 270% increase since beginning of the game), so feel free to use 'flexibility'
- [2011-11-20 13:51:58] <Arkeus> Guile: three piercing
- [2011-11-20 13:52:03] <Arkeus> which is 'master'
- [2011-11-20 13:52:07] <Alratan> which is a shame, as virtually all our weapons are actually primarily slashing weapons
- [2011-11-20 13:52:18] <Arkeus> But that was BEFORE kas pin
- [2011-11-20 13:52:32] <Arkeus> and Kas Pin did have sickle combat, for example
- [2011-11-20 13:52:45] <Alratan> the mere and Silja's sword bayonet are designed to slash with
- [2011-11-20 13:52:56] <Alratan> although they can make piercing attacks as well
- [2011-11-20 13:55:31] <Arkeus> Guile made no comments about Dkay wanting to give Files to Amen, huh. Nor about Inviting Camella to stay at our place
- [2011-11-20 13:55:53] <Guile> Ill be deleting and reposting eventually anyhow
- [2011-11-20 13:56:07] <Guile> once I work out how Kas Pin integrates with SotG
- [2011-11-20 13:56:10] <Alratan> I will do though
- [2011-11-20 13:56:18] <Ironybot> I am hoping that if we work at it, we will be able to move from being able to read others' attention into being able to direct others' attention. That is, master trying to pull their focus to different things.
- [2011-11-20 13:56:37] <Ironybot> We did a little bit of that with the Reaper, and it proved its value right there.
- [2011-11-20 13:57:04] <Ironybot> Drag their attention to the left hand, they don't see the right hand with the knife or the grenade or what have you.
- [2011-11-20 13:57:36] <Guile> right
- [2011-11-20 13:57:46] <Guile> thats kinda what I was trying to say with the Camella spar
- [2011-11-20 13:57:48] <Arkeus> <Ironybot> I am hoping that if we work at it, we will be able to move from being able to read others' attention into being able to direct others' attention. That is, master trying to pull their focus to different things. <= indeed
- [2011-11-20 13:57:54] <Guile> except poorly
- [2011-11-20 13:57:56] <Ironybot> At the moment, we merely treat Attention as something to be avoided- we need to treat it as something to be controlled.
- [2011-11-20 13:58:13] <Alratan> or interacted with more generally
- [2011-11-20 13:58:19] <Arkeus> That we do, and trying to do that in a controlled environement right now could be very, very good
- [2011-11-20 13:58:23] <Alratan> we need to learn to distinguish different kinds of Attention
- [2011-11-20 13:58:29] <Alratan> different motives
- [2011-11-20 13:58:39] <Arkeus> Oh, RIGHT
- [2011-11-20 13:58:48] <Alratan> are they going to pay attention to an area because they are going to attack there
- [2011-11-20 13:59:02] <Alratan> or are they going to because they fear you will be and they want to defend
- [2011-11-20 13:59:04] <Arkeus> TIM: Maybe have a mention on how we were able to sense the Dragons' attention even though they utterly outclassed us
- [2011-11-20 13:59:26] <Arkeus> So it seems our Attention-sense is almost good enough to deal with their weak grasp of their own focus
- [2011-11-20 13:59:47] <Arkeus> Try to elaborate on how it is possible when we couldn't see their souls
- [2011-11-20 13:59:50] <Arkeus> etc
- [2011-11-20 13:59:57] <Alratan> hmm, yes, a loophole in the soul power limitations

- [2011-11-20 14:08:18] <Alratan> I know people will be sceptical about this, but given how we utterly lack the resources to reverse engineer either the Reaper charms or the Repaer gun, and don't have the very high precision manufacturing equipment or magical skills to make them even if we did know how, should we add them to the auction for Mammon's Device

- [2011-11-20 14:09:07] <Arkeus> We talked about this last night
- [2011-11-20 14:09:19] <Arkeus> I believe adding reaper charm + souls + Blood is a bad end
- [2011-11-20 14:09:26] <Alratan> why
- [2011-11-20 14:09:33] <Alratan> we have SM as a cut out

- [2011-11-20 14:09:54] <Alratan> we certainly can't admit that we're the seller

- [2011-11-20 14:10:05] <Arkeus> Alratan: Bad End in the sense that it may REALLy give far too much power too quickly
- [2011-11-20 14:10:16] <Alratan> I really don't understand
- [2011-11-20 14:10:17] <Arkeus> mmmh, point, SM can't say who is the seller anyway
- [2011-11-20 14:10:49] <Arkeus> Another problem is selling a Soul
- [2011-11-20 14:10:56] <Arkeus> it's... not something people like
- [2011-11-20 14:10:58] <Arkeus> at All
- [2011-11-20 14:11:04] <Alratan> Remember what Einrik told us about the fate of most souls?
- [2011-11-20 14:11:07] <Arkeus> So they might not be willing to buy it
- [2011-11-20 14:11:19] <Arkeus> Yes, but it doesn't matter- people don't like that
- [2011-11-20 14:11:30] <Alratan> how they're used to make items etc
- [2011-11-20 14:11:37] <Alratan> they can't not like it that much
- [2011-11-20 14:12:01] <Samar> If we had the chance and he made an offer of BILLIONS, would you guys sell Blackbeard MD?
- [2011-11-20 14:12:01] <Alratan> otherwise virtually all souls wouldn't end up gettign eaten or used as craft raw materials
- [2011-11-20 14:12:16] <Alratan> yes
- [2011-11-20 14:12:31] <Alratan> I'd also arrange for him to be jumped when he came to collect
- [2011-11-20 14:12:36] <Alratan> and sell it to someone else

- [2011-11-20 14:13:36] <Arkeus> Virtually all souls end up being eaten by nevernever
- [2011-11-20 14:13:44] <Arkeus> very, very few end up being used for materials
- [2011-11-20 14:13:50] <Arkeus> and beings who do that are hated

- [2011-11-20 14:15:14] <InsufferableMystic> Hmm
- [2011-11-20 14:15:15] <Alratan> "When you die, your soul is released. Whole bunch of different things can happen to a soul from there. They can be consumed, spiritually erased, absorbed, trapped, used to build a spell-all sorts of things. If a soul avoids any of that, then before all that long, it will be re-absorbed by the Nevernever, reclaiming the magical energy in it. In the process the soul itself is unmade, so while
- [2011-11-20 14:15:15] <Alratan> it takes longer it's the same thing as erasing a soul-and is the most common fate for souls."
- [2011-11-20 14:15:24] <Alratan> that doesn't sound like very few, at all
- [2011-11-20 14:15:26] <InsufferableMystic> Perhaps I should try get 777

- [2011-11-20 14:28:47] <Ironybot> Weapon. Like two giant balls on a chain, if I recall correctly.

- [2011-11-20 14:29:29] <Guile> near as I can tell, the remmi works either like a whip, a rope dart, or most likely, a shaolin meteor hammer

- [2011-11-20 14:36:30] <Fargist_The_Fifth> That's pretty sweet
- [2011-11-20 14:37:11] <Guile> good luck trying to follow that little bit of metal when he's changing grips and hands and keeping your attention with the off hand
- [2011-11-20 14:37:52] <Arkeus> Which is how Armas should try to confound people with Kas Pin more
- [2011-11-20 14:38:24] <Fargist_The_Fifth> But first of all, we need to integrate it into SoTG
- [2011-11-20 14:38:29] <Ironybot> Why "with Kas Pin", specifically? He need to integrate his military arts, not use them individually.
- [2011-11-20 14:38:42] <Alratan> I prefer the confounding approach of them not knowing you're there until they feel your sword entering their back
- [2011-11-20 14:39:13] <Guile> LINE and Krav Maga are unarmed styles, or at least I think thats how he learned them. I wanted to integrate Kas Pin with his mere and bayonet styles
- [2011-11-20 14:39:37] <Alratan> Krav Maga isn't actually that useful against non-human opponents
- [2011-11-20 14:40:03] <Alratan> the kinds of techniques it uses simply wouldn't work on enemies who are disproportionately strong or tough for their size
- [2011-11-20 14:40:04] <Arkeus> Ironybot: with the kas pin part
- [2011-11-20 14:40:26] <InsufferableMystic> Krav Maga is too spesific for disabling/killing humans

- [2011-11-20 14:41:15] <Fargist_The_Fifth> I wonder
- [2011-11-20 14:41:23] <Ironybot> Unfortunately, a huge number of military arts that focus on close-in fighting or grappling aren't going to be terribly effective against opponents with unnatural strength or toughness. But there's little to be done about that.
- [2011-11-20 14:41:25] <Fargist_The_Fifth> Can our physical body still be scarred?
- [2011-11-20 14:41:35] <Ironybot> It shouldn't be able to.
- [2011-11-20 14:41:41] <Guile> I still say joint locks should be fairly effective
- [2011-11-20 14:41:51] <Ironybot> Scars are a product of imperfect healing- our healing is perfect.
- [2011-11-20 14:42:13] <Guile> take THAT, einherjar healing. In your FACE, you imperfect knockoff
- [2011-11-20 14:42:34] <Fargist_The_Fifth> Yeah, but if we ever get cancer, we're done for

- [2011-11-20 14:52:59] <Alratan> you know, we are no more capable of killing or harming Kazadora than we were when we last met him
- [2011-11-20 14:53:05] <Fargist_The_Fifth> Also, I wonder if SB can survive our death now
- [2011-11-20 14:53:33] <Ironybot> That is false. Iron Trick and a now-more-powerful Keihas might well be able to do something to him.
- [2011-11-20 14:53:57] <Ironybot> Admittedly, I don't think we would be able to win- but we're certainly in a better position to harm him before we lose.
- [2011-11-20 14:54:11] <Arkeus> We also are much more able to see his traps
- [2011-11-20 14:54:15] <Arkeus> and sense him
- [2011-11-20 14:54:21] <Arkeus> And we'll only get better at that
- [2011-11-20 14:54:32] <Alratan> Keihas probably still does nothing
- [2011-11-20 14:54:33] <InsufferableMystic> We also would cry like a little gurl if we knew he was coming
- [2011-11-20 14:54:42] <Arkeus> That we would
- [2011-11-20 14:54:43] <Alratan> he's a Level 8 Blood Practitioner
- [2011-11-20 14:54:49] <Arkeus> But it might make IT like us more
- [2011-11-20 14:54:58] <Fargist_The_Fifth> We'd prepare our anuses
- [2011-11-20 14:54:59] <Alratan> Iron Trick, if we roll right, might do something
- [2011-11-20 14:55:15] <Alratan> but I suspect the blood is not part of him
- [2011-11-20 14:55:16] <Arkeus> If we contract artifact mere, too
- [2011-11-20 14:55:21] <Alratan> and is instead an external shield
- [2011-11-20 14:55:26] <Alratan> the mere wouldn't do much
- [2011-11-20 14:55:36] <Arkeus> If we contract artifact it
- [2011-11-20 14:55:37] <Alratan> as I don't theink the blood is part of him
- [2011-11-20 14:55:39] <Arkeus> It might
- [2011-11-20 14:55:45] <Arkeus> "don't think"
- [2011-11-20 14:55:56] <Alratan> and he can just use the remote controlled blood to attack at range
- [2011-11-20 14:56:28] <Arkeus> Guile: i thought you were going to post?
- [2011-11-20 14:56:59] <Guile> bob doesnt like people posting while hes updating, as I recall
- [2011-11-20 14:57:10] <InsufferableMystic> just right
- [2011-11-20 14:57:18] <InsufferableMystic> That would be very irriating

- [2011-11-20 14:58:49] <Arkeus> that's much rarer than triple triple
- [2011-11-20 14:58:59] <Ironybot> Our numerological power waxes!
- [2011-11-20 14:59:02] <Arkeus> Also, we HAVE triple triple if we count my five of a kind

- [2011-11-20 15:04:30] <Alratan> no
- [2011-11-20 15:04:32] <Arkeus> we arrived there at around noon, though
- [2011-11-20 15:04:40] <Arkeus> so beginning of post is more or less noon
- [2011-11-20 15:04:41] <Fargist_The_Fifth> Everybody's looking forward to-the-day's end
- [2011-11-20 15:04:51] <Alratan> [20:30] <TheBeardiestBob> I am currently midway through an update, at the end of which you will still be at Ito's.
- [2011-11-20 15:04:51] <Ironybot> I really don't think we're at anywhere near that late in the day. The whole big Triad thing took what, half an hour to get there, ten minutes of fighting, maybe fifteen minutes of aftermath, twenty minutes to return? So call it an hour and a half.
- [2011-11-20 15:05:11] <Arkeus> Yeah, it's around noon
- [2011-11-20 15:05:26] <Fargist_The_Fifth> Hey, Classhole's back
- [2011-11-20 15:05:39] <Fargist_The_Fifth> Didn't see ya there man
- [2011-11-20 15:05:47] <Ironybot> Before that, the bit with Blackbeard certainly didn't take more than two hours, and it started at what, eight in the morning?
- [2011-11-20 15:05:58] <Ironybot> So it is definitely not after 1300, at the very latest.
- [2011-11-20 15:07:11] <Alratan> I think the current priority needs to be getting a substantial supply of supernatural meat for this evening
- [2011-11-20 15:07:29] <Fargist_The_Fifth> Yip
- [2011-11-20 15:07:35] <Fargist_The_Fifth> ...yip.

- [2011-11-20 15:08:08] <Alratan> as we promised a meal equivilent in magical energy to a double bloodlined human with a soul graft from a god, one of whos' bloodlines is five times average human strength

- [2011-11-20 15:08:44] <Arkeus> As said, we have to see him
- [2011-11-20 15:08:54] <Arkeus> Because we need to go and pay what we owe him

- [2011-11-20 15:13:54] <Ironybot> It was disrespectful to call Sometimes Merchant when we're actively wandering around in his sewers, and he told us to make sure that we had something of value next time we talked. If we wanted to contact him, in person would be the way to do it- and anything less than a significant purchase or sale is just wasting his time.

- [2011-11-20 15:44:34] <Alratan> :(
- [2011-11-20 15:44:41] <Alratan> will have to do my best
- [2011-11-20 15:45:30] <Guile> killer croc level... so fucking lost... developing severe phobia of sewers with giant crocodile men in them
- [2011-11-20 15:45:35] <Alratan> the hearing bit is really the secondary piece, it's the reading the nature of Attention I'm most interested in for mow
- [2011-11-20 15:45:44] <Ironybot> There is quite a bit of development that we can likely do with our attention sensing skills, if we spend some time working at it.
- [2011-11-20 15:45:57] <ferminter> Killer Croc wishes he could be as scary as what lives in our sewers
- [2011-11-20 15:46:08] <Guile> took 20 years to get it to this level, may require serious time investment
- [2011-11-20 15:46:24] <Ironybot> That said, this afternoon is ultimately rather short- we'll need a lot more free time to really develop it.
- [2011-11-20 15:46:43] <Ironybot> The primary purpose of today is to reconnect with our contacts rather than to accomplish new things with them.
- [2011-11-20 15:47:03] <Alratan> what we also need to do is start simulatanously working on a variety of soul based abilities
- [2011-11-20 15:47:12] <Alratan> get some education from the Liab Olmai
- [2011-11-20 15:47:36] <Alratan> the same from the captives of Stallon's tribe the Liab Olmai took
- [2011-11-20 15:47:47] <Alratan> as well as chakra training from Lo Fang
- [2011-11-20 15:47:58] <Guile> I dont think the LO have cell phones, Al
- [2011-11-20 15:48:02] <Alratan> and some more education from SM on how to interpret spirual senses
- [2011-11-20 15:48:20] <Alratan> Guile: no, but the Valkonens have a phone, and there's a Liab Olmai Shaman at their estate
- [2011-11-20 15:48:39] <Guile> ... there is?
- [2011-11-20 15:49:00] <Alratan> yep
- [2011-11-20 15:49:04] <A_Greedy_Squid> i SENSE AN UPDATE
- [2011-11-20 15:49:15] <Alratan> all our pissing about with mobiles was completely un-neccessary
- [2011-11-20 15:49:25] <Alratan> we could have just asked to borrow their landline
- [2011-11-20 15:49:49] <TheBeardiestBob> Alratan, I gently suggest actually seeking out Soul manipulators that are good at soul perception to expand your sensing with. Yes you can learn on your own with experimentation, and yes short of somehow mixing border in the mix or something else crazy, you don't pose direct risk to yourself in the experimentation
- [2011-11-20 15:50:09] <Alratan> It seems that SM falls into that category
- [2011-11-20 15:50:20] <TheBeardiestBob> but it's the difference between an amateur blowing glass, or paying a glass blower from one of the guilds in Milan to do it.
- [2011-11-20 15:50:44] <TheBeardiestBob> Please do recall how much premium information carries when going from goblin to you rather than the other way around.

- [2011-11-20 15:51:51] <Alratan> Both stalking and sneaking are directly based on spiritual perception
- [2011-11-20 15:52:01] <A_Greedy_Squid> Teaching OURSELVES?
- [2011-11-20 15:52:01] <Alratan> so we should just continue buying training there
- [2011-11-20 15:52:02] <Ironybot> But I have been surprised before.
- [2011-11-20 15:52:09] <A_Greedy_Squid> Nah. Have SM teach us
- [2011-11-20 15:52:28] <Alratan> at that cheap rate, by claiming it's part of the same subject we've already agreed a price for
- [2011-11-20 15:52:30] <InsufferableMystic> SM's vent isn't normal, I'd like to have the mundane first
- [2011-11-20 15:52:45] <A_Greedy_Squid> Remember our idea to make Camella talk with her leg?
- [2011-11-20 15:52:57] <A_Greedy_Squid> 'Pssst! Hey! Camella! It's me, your leg!'
- [2011-11-20 15:53:12] <Alratan> Also, we could ask for the six or seven training sessions we're due by the wording of the strikes deal, if they get really difficult
- [2011-11-20 15:53:20] <Ironybot> While it is as suicidally dangerous as ever, Amen is a masterful soul manipulator and in spite of his specialization could almost certainly provide us with a ton of useful information at no cost.
- [2011-11-20 15:53:37] <A_Greedy_Squid> yip yip
- [2011-11-20 15:53:52] <Ironybot> I would go for that over Sometimes Merchant, so long as we are careful with it.
- [2011-11-20 15:54:01] <A_Greedy_Squid> Same
- [2011-11-20 15:54:02] <Alratan> spirtual perceptions and how to interpret what they detect would seem to be one of the least bad things to ask
- [2011-11-20 15:54:10] <Alratan> but still not worth it
- [2011-11-20 15:54:22] <Alratan> and I doubt that Einrik understands how his own spirtual senses work
- [2011-11-20 15:54:29] <Alratan> as he steals them from something else
- [2011-11-20 15:54:37] <A_Greedy_Squid> From babbythulu
- [2011-11-20 15:54:45] <A_Greedy_Squid> !!
- [2011-11-20 15:54:45] <Classhole> !?
- [2011-11-20 15:54:47] <A_Greedy_Squid> Hey Bob
- [2011-11-20 15:54:50] <BUTTZ> Einrik is insightful and well educated
- [2011-11-20 15:54:54] <A_Greedy_Squid> What was the babbythulu's true name again?
- [2011-11-20 15:54:59] <Samar> NO
- [2011-11-20 15:54:59] <A_Greedy_Squid> I forgot and no one wants to tell me
- [2011-11-20 15:55:00] <Samar> DOWN SQUID
- [2011-11-20 15:55:01] <BUTTZ> I'm sure he has an idea of how it works at a minimum
- [2011-11-20 15:55:07] <Samar> we will never tell you

- [2011-11-20 15:55:16] <A_Greedy_Squid> That's why I'm asking Bob

- [2011-11-20 15:56:46] <BUTTZ> They're pretty clever
- [2011-11-20 15:56:50] <ferminter> Very clever
- [2011-11-20 15:56:55] <A_Greedy_Squid> Squids are too
- [2011-11-20 15:57:00] <BUTTZ> Too bad they live such short lives
- [2011-11-20 15:57:12] <ferminter> Turtles get all the luck
- [2011-11-20 15:57:15] <BUTTZ> If they had better longevitity it might be worth trying to teach them
- [2011-11-20 15:58:12] <BUTTZ> Well maybe someone will make a Octogenarian Octopi gmo
- [2011-11-20 15:58:38] <Guile> actually, my 'there is?' referred to a Laib Olmai at the Valk estate, not a phone

- [2011-11-20 16:01:02] <Samar> do you really want to know its name?
- [2011-11-20 16:01:08] <A_Greedy_Squid> Yes, I really want to know

- [2011-11-20 16:07:47] <TheBeardiestBob> And hanging participle ___ need to be used to contextualize _ properly for ___
- [2011-11-20 16:08:03] <Guile> context is important
- [2011-11-20 16:08:22] <TheBeardiestBob> Indeed it is.

- [2011-11-20 16:20:05] <TheBeardiestBob> you know you want to.
- [2011-11-20 16:21:24] <Alratan> Hmm, we know know there's something very odd about Camella, as we have a superhuman (Level 4) combat trait, and as a normal human, she shouldn't
- [2011-11-20 16:22:18] <TheBeardiestBob> She's got a shitton of interlinked lvl 3 combat traits
- [2011-11-20 16:22:49] <cornelius> Quantity has a quality all of its' own
- [2011-11-20 16:23:07] <Alratan> we could hold off the Valkonen twins simultaneously
- [2011-11-20 16:23:30] <Alratan> we should have a pile of Level 4+ combat traits
- [2011-11-20 16:24:15] <Guile> I dont think the Valk twins were going anything but easy on us
- [2011-11-20 16:24:18] <Alratan> *sorry, who should have
- [2011-11-20 16:24:48] <TheBeardiestBob> You abused the fact that until they are taught the stealth arts the valkonen style is SHIT in terms of counter-stealth.
- [2011-11-20 16:25:18] <TheBeardiestBob> That's one of the reasons the family kept Tartalo-Tartalo's GREAT at detection. Like a babysitter for Valks that haven't learned everything.
- [2011-11-20 16:26:05] <Alratan> Also, shouldn't we also have a pile of interlinked Level 3 combat traits from the Kas Pin implantation
- [2011-11-20 16:26:16] <Wutenheimer> huh
- [2011-11-20 16:26:16] <MrTT> " Through it all, Hillevi resolutely shunts the majority of Hillevi's efforts aside"
- [2011-11-20 16:26:16] <Wutenheimer> wut
- [2011-11-20 16:26:27] <MrTT> which one is camella?
- [2011-11-20 16:26:57] <Alratan> as that gave us more years of impossibly tough martial arts training than Camella has been alive
- [2011-11-20 16:27:37] <Wutenheimer> oh god that... that thing
- [2011-11-20 16:27:40] <TheBeardiestBob> Whoops
- [2011-11-20 16:27:50] <TheBeardiestBob> Camella shunted Hillevi's attacks
- [2011-11-20 16:28:27] <A_Greedy_Squid> Huh...
- [2011-11-20 16:28:31] <Guile> we havent exactly tried using the kas pin style in quest- we might pick up a handful of 2-3 level traits when we get around to it
- [2011-11-20 16:28:54] <Alratan> I think we should shift styles to pure Kas Pin now, and go for the nerve strikes that are part of the style
- [2011-11-20 16:29:37] <MrTT> armas has, with memory implants and the like, more combat training then she has been alive... probably
- [2011-11-20 16:29:46] <MrTT> but her soul suggests more experience, much more so
- [2011-11-20 16:29:52] <MrTT> I wonder if it is just combat experience
- [2011-11-20 16:29:58] <MrTT> or if she also had some time shens
- [2011-11-20 16:30:28] <MrTT> besides... decades of experience or not she is still super good at it
- [2011-11-20 16:30:29] <Alratan> yeah, Armas has what, ten years combat experience
- [2011-11-20 16:30:34] <Guile> could be that deep down in the catacombs is more like the nevernever than not. So she didnt just spend a couple weeks down there- but much, much longer
- [2011-11-20 16:30:35] <Alratan> in the field
- [2011-11-20 16:30:54] <Alratan> your soul doesn't get strong during NN time acceleration though
- [2011-11-20 16:30:54] <Guile> and there's something to be said for stupid amounts of genius
- [2011-11-20 16:31:08] <MrTT> 10 years in field, 25 years of non stop no sleep stealth experience (translates to much more time in regular years), decades and decades of kas pin implanted into brain
- [2011-11-20 16:31:37] <A_Greedy_Squid> And Camella can still kick our shit in.
- [2011-11-20 16:31:39] <Alratan> not only that, but a level of training for Kas Pin that a mortal wouldn't survive
- [2011-11-20 16:31:45] <MrTT> maybe a soul can gain combat experience in NN even though it doesn't get AGE experience
- [2011-11-20 16:31:57] <MrTT> and yes she does have ridiculous amout of genious there
- [2011-11-20 16:32:08] <Alratan> we're probably looking at having about ten times as much combat training time as here
- [2011-11-20 16:32:21] <InsufferableMystic> Bob, could i link to my previous post for this update?
- [2011-11-20 16:33:01] <MrTT> well... her training all came directly from herself, in normal time, and in actual combat... and she did have a lot of IRL experience in field operations as a spec op

- [2011-11-20 16:36:46] <BUTTZ> reality
- [2011-11-20 16:36:51] <A_Greedy_Squid> She must have gained some SERIOUS XP during her underground trek
- [2011-11-20 16:36:58] <Ironybot> We're worried about Hillevi blushing blue... didn't she put her glamour back on after showing Camella what she actually looked like? Shouldn't it cover for that?
- [2011-11-20 16:36:59] <TheBeardiestBob> Oh fuck yeah she did
- [2011-11-20 16:37:11] <TheBeardiestBob> She got more xp in that trek than I think you have in any two threads.
- [2011-11-20 16:37:18] <A_Greedy_Squid> ...
- [2011-11-20 16:37:19] <Alratan> so
- [2011-11-20 16:37:20] <A_Greedy_Squid> My god
- [2011-11-20 16:37:21] <A_Greedy_Squid> What a beast
- [2011-11-20 16:37:28] <Samar> how long was the trek?
- [2011-11-20 16:37:33] <BUTTZ> A week
- [2011-11-20 16:37:35] <A_Greedy_Squid> A week
- [2011-11-20 16:37:39] <Alratan> we have a tiny number of encoutners possible due to our control methodology
- [2011-11-20 16:37:51] <Alratan> we've spent three weeks having abour 4 hours pass
- [2011-11-20 16:38:07] <Alratan> xp acqusition rate will alsways be slow
- [2011-11-20 16:38:32] <A_Greedy_Squid> Not with BONUSes
- [2011-11-20 16:38:58] <A_Greedy_Squid> We just got Palindromic Bonus, 4 of a kind, 5 of a kind.
- [2011-11-20 16:39:04] <A_Greedy_Squid> And probably Triple Triple
- [2011-11-20 16:39:15] <Ironybot> What do those have to do with XP gain?
- [2011-11-20 16:39:16] <Samar> for all we know, Camella could be off on a mission
- [2011-11-20 16:39:20] <Samar> while we're still at the gym
- [2011-11-20 16:39:48] <Alratan> yeah, I can't see how we can ever possibly approach the number of encoutners players on IRC can get through
- [2011-11-20 16:40:30] <BUTTZ> And I can't see how they can match a collective for planning and ass-pulls
- [2011-11-20 16:40:39] <Alratan> what?
- [2011-11-20 16:41:19] <BUTTZ> A single person isn't going to do as well at brainstorming and last-minute insane-but-bacon-saving plans as a collective group
- [2011-11-20 16:41:27] <Guile> "Her soul is watching me." That's pretty spooky, even for us.
- [2011-11-20 16:41:29] <Alratan> the fact that we're a fluctuating collective that by it's nature can't make consistent decisions or maintain a long term plan only compounds it
- [2011-11-20 16:41:50] <A_Greedy_Squid> Camella, you just keep getting creepier
- [2011-11-20 16:42:13] <A_Greedy_Squid> Wait, maybe she can soul-sense too?
- [2011-11-20 16:42:21] <Alratan> seems very likely
- [2011-11-20 16:42:34] <A_Greedy_Squid> Then that means...she can see our fucked up soul.
- [2011-11-20 16:42:45] <Alratan> I doubt she can perceive it conciously
- [2011-11-20 16:42:55] <Alratan> remember, to mortals we look liek a funky NN denizen
- [2011-11-20 16:42:58] <MrTT> "<TheBeardiestBob> Military is not the only combat experience" -oho! you know now that I think about it, I have been fighting since I started school
- [2011-11-20 16:43:04] <MrTT> Schools in israel are very violent
- [2011-11-20 16:43:06] <MrTT> no discipline
- [2011-11-20 16:43:13] <Alratan> not like another mortal
- [2011-11-20 16:43:21] <MrTT> I bet she has done so too, gang fights in her teens, things like that
- [2011-11-20 16:43:32] <Alratan> Also, who's Jagda?
- [2011-11-20 16:43:51] <Ironybot> Professor translating our cookbook.
- [2011-11-20 16:43:58] <Alratan> MrTT: Unless the italy in the world she's from is quite different to ours, I doubt it
- [2011-11-20 16:43:58] <Guile> she's an italian, isnt she? and Jagda's the professor
- [2011-11-20 16:44:01] <MrTT> Armas spent only 2 weeks gaining all his powers in the finland trip though
- [2011-11-20 16:44:03] <cornelius> Seems to me like we're just experiencing a facet of her shooting ability.
- [2011-11-20 16:44:13] <cornelius> The innate body position sensing
- [2011-11-20 16:44:19] <MrTT> Maybe she is from a rough neighborhood of inner city italians
- [2011-11-20 16:44:20] <Alratan> Isn't Jagda visiting us rather than the other way around?
- [2011-11-20 16:44:32] <Guile> could be... it does explain how she feels comfortable throwing all those backhands and roundhouses, though
- [2011-11-20 16:44:42] <cornelius> He is
- [2011-11-20 16:44:53] <Guile> I think as long as we feed him magical food, we're good
- [2011-11-20 16:44:54] <cornelius> Still need to get more cooking supplies
- [2011-11-20 16:45:03] <Samar> kelpie krisps
- [2011-11-20 16:45:07] <A_Greedy_Squid> ^
- [2011-11-20 16:45:08] <A_Greedy_Squid> A classic
- [2011-11-20 16:45:09] <cornelius> Our signature recipe
- [2011-11-20 16:45:24] <cornelius> Armas needs to add his own touch to them
- [2011-11-20 16:45:40] <Alratan> We promised Kelpie Crisps
- [2011-11-20 16:45:45] <Alratan> we don't have theingredients
- [2011-11-20 16:45:50] <Alratan> and we have no way to get them
- [2011-11-20 16:45:50] <A_Greedy_Squid> :<
- [2011-11-20 16:45:57] <MrTT> we have a ton of shit to sell SM
- [2011-11-20 16:45:58] <A_Greedy_Squid> But then again
- [2011-11-20 16:45:59] <BUTTZ> We can go kill a kelpie
- [2011-11-20 16:46:01] <cornelius> We have a meeting with the goblins planned.
- [2011-11-20 16:46:03] <A_Greedy_Squid> Kelpie meat is cheap as fuck
- [2011-11-20 16:46:11] <A_Greedy_Squid> It's like...buying sweets at your local store
- [2011-11-20 16:46:17] <MrTT> a single delivery of kelpie is gonna be insignificant, most of the purchases we make are "weekly deliveries for life"
- [2011-11-20 16:46:18] <Alratan> SM is ignoring our calls, remember
- [2011-11-20 16:46:42] <Guile> If we go into the Bosphorus after a kelpie, we are gonna initiate Doony encounter
- [2011-11-20 16:46:43] <cornelius> He accepted he would wait until after we finished gathering information
- [2011-11-20 16:46:44] <MrTT> did we table the building of an underground facility for redcaps?
- [2011-11-20 16:46:45] <Guile> you just know it
- [2011-11-20 16:46:48] <MrTT> or did they actually build it?
- [2011-11-20 16:46:49] <A_Greedy_Squid> ...
- [2011-11-20 16:46:57] <cornelius> We will be done soon
- [2011-11-20 16:46:58] <Guile> no TT, Amen is building it
- [2011-11-20 16:47:01] <A_Greedy_Squid> US WITH A SPEAR AND SILJA, RIDING A KELPIE THROUGH THE WAVES
- [2011-11-20 16:47:01] <MrTT> because that is kinda advertising
- [2011-11-20 16:47:08] <Alratan> not really
- [2011-11-20 16:47:22] <Alratan> as anyone who could witness it will get imprisoned by Amen
- [2011-11-20 16:47:51] <cornelius> Water skiing using monster power?
- [2011-11-20 16:47:56] <MrTT> actually, i had an idea to have amen build and protect an elevator / base underneath the mansion... so that its a mansion overground, then ONE layer of sewer, then an exploration base
- [2011-11-20 16:48:07] <Guile> I can see other uses for it, even if I think trying to juggle SM and Redcap contacts will be hard enough without setting the Redcaps down really close to goblin territory
- [2011-11-20 16:48:08] <MrTT> we cannot remove the protections on the house own sewers
- [2011-11-20 16:48:21] <MrTT> but we can just walk out, enter a sewer, then walk a little bit and enter that second underground mansion
- [2011-11-20 16:48:27] <cornelius> The sewer entrance to be precise
- [2011-11-20 16:48:41] <MrTT> I plan to draw it out and post in questdis
- [2011-11-20 16:48:43] <MrTT> when i have time
- [2011-11-20 16:48:51] <MrTT> which i don't right now, why am i burning it talking here? ARRG!
- [2011-11-20 16:48:53] <Guile> the sewers under the house are really dangerous for some reason. Maybe Amen is brewing one of his death plots down there
- [2011-11-20 16:49:06] <cornelius> The issue is eating up Wyld goblin territory building anything.
- [2011-11-20 16:49:24] <Guile> Amen specified that he wouldnt set it down on Wyld goblin land
- [2011-11-20 16:49:54] <Alratan> Amen's influence goes up and down
- [2011-11-20 16:50:08] <Guile> big question now is - what trick can we pull that can get us out of this fight intact, that doesnt rely on hiding/trickery?
- [2011-11-20 16:50:08] <Alratan> have him build it beneath the goblin territory
- [2011-11-20 16:50:24] <Alratan> I'm about to come up with one
- [2011-11-20 16:51:06] <Alratan> My first version won't have a roll so you guys can review it
- [2011-11-20 16:51:36] <cornelius> How thoughtful
- [2011-11-20 16:51:49] <MrTT> we can buy that particular spot in their territory.
- [2011-11-20 16:51:51] <cornelius> Being entirely seriously there
- [2011-11-20 16:52:03] <MrTT> and for every level do a case by case thing
- [2011-11-20 16:52:24] <Guile> should I post my kas pin musings in disc or quest, I wonder?
- [2011-11-20 16:52:31] <Guile> It's kind of applicable to the situation at hand
- [2011-11-20 16:52:43] <cornelius> Seems like the perfect time
- [2011-11-20 16:53:43] <A_Greedy_Squid> ?discthread
- [2011-11-20 16:53:44] <Classhole> http://tgchan.org/kusaba/questdis/res/347115+50.html
- [2011-11-20 16:54:43] <Ironybot> My clever plan to get us out of this without getting our ass kicked: When we're pretty sure she'll win within the next few seconds, pull out and concede the match.
- [2011-11-20 16:54:45] <Wutenheimer> i imagine jackie chans soul is much like camellas
- [2011-11-20 16:54:58] <A_Greedy_Squid> Dude
- [2011-11-20 16:55:02] <A_Greedy_Squid> |We barely started
- [2011-11-20 16:55:23] <MrTT> real men never pull out
- [2011-11-20 16:55:28] <Wutenheimer> except instead of focusing on his opponent it's focusing on his surroundings
- [2011-11-20 16:55:38] <MrTT> ... of a fight
- [2011-11-20 16:55:47] * A_Greedy_Squid snickers at MrTT
- [2011-11-20 16:55:54] <Wutenheimer> also, after wrapping up here we go straight to jagda
- [2011-11-20 16:55:56] <BUTTZ> MrTT has hit on one way to turn the fight
- [2011-11-20 16:55:58] <Wutenheimer> cooking comes first
- [2011-11-20 16:56:01] <Guile> Thank you, TT
- [2011-11-20 16:56:12] <InsufferableMystic> We need food for jagda
- [2011-11-20 16:56:23] <A_Greedy_Squid> I wonder if we have some hidden Cooking trait
- [2011-11-20 16:56:28] <Ironybot> We will need to pick up magical food supplies before going to see Jagda, or the whole thing there falls through.
- [2011-11-20 16:56:38] <BUTTZ> We need food, we need to talk to Hafaz, we need to try out our whistling trait
- [2011-11-20 16:56:45] <Ironybot> That means we have to go home and/or deal with Sometimes Merchant.
- [2011-11-20 16:56:58] <cornelius> If we get our hands on the full cookbook and read it in its' entirety and then practice we might get one
- [2011-11-20 16:56:59] <Wutenheimer> we have a whistling trait?
- [2011-11-20 16:57:03] <A_Greedy_Squid> Yep
- [2011-11-20 16:57:05] <A_Greedy_Squid> Hidden trait
- [2011-11-20 16:57:12] <A_Greedy_Squid> Level...3 I think
- [2011-11-20 16:57:12] <BUTTZ> Level 3 hidden trait, one of the best whistlers in the world
- [2011-11-20 16:57:14] <Wutenheimer> we will use it on the walk over
- [2011-11-20 16:57:14] <cornelius> Armas is apparently one of the best whistlers in the world
- [2011-11-20 16:57:18] <Wutenheimer> wat
- [2011-11-20 16:57:24] <A_Greedy_Squid> You heard them.
- [2011-11-20 16:57:25] <cornelius> Nice one Buttz
- [2011-11-20 16:57:28] <A_Greedy_Squid> One of the best.
- [2011-11-20 16:57:34] <TheBeardiestBob> See, this here is how Armas SHOULD approach fighting magic users http://images.4chan.org/a/src/1321827029651.jpg
- [2011-11-20 16:58:11] <cornelius> So we should become Blackbeard?
- [2011-11-20 16:58:16] <BUTTZ> Gonna have to learn how to do demolitions safely
- [2011-11-20 16:58:38] <A_Greedy_Squid> We have the Russians for that
- [2011-11-20 16:59:03] <BUTTZ> Yeah we could get them to train Armas
- [2011-11-20 16:59:06] <Alratan> Well, posted
- [2011-11-20 16:59:10] <Alratan> does it make sense?
- [2011-11-20 16:59:27] <Arkeus> waking up to read an update :-)
- [2011-11-20 16:59:29] <A_Greedy_Squid> First of all, we should get Chakra and Shooting/HtH combat training for the Russians
- [2011-11-20 16:59:33] <A_Greedy_Squid> Especially from CAmella
- [2011-11-20 17:00:29] <Ironybot> There is a horrible problem with what you posted. Specifically, you completely ignored this line in the update: "[If so you MUST roll with your idea.] "
- [2011-11-20 17:00:47] <cornelius> He addressed that
- [2011-11-20 17:00:51] <BUTTZ> Easily fixed though
- [2011-11-20 17:00:53] <cornelius> He's letting us read it over before he rolls
- [2011-11-20 17:01:08] <cornelius> To point out issues and/improve ideas
- [2011-11-20 17:01:10] <Ironybot> Ah. My mistake, then.
- [2011-11-20 17:01:13] <Ironybot> Apologies.
- [2011-11-20 17:01:22] <Guile> UU - we dont have the russians in our employ yet!
- [2011-11-20 17:01:27] <Guile> cart before the horse
- [2011-11-20 17:01:37] <A_Greedy_Squid> Sometimes you need to prepare the cart.
- [2011-11-20 17:01:47] <A_Greedy_Squid> And the stuff on the cart
- [2011-11-20 17:01:56] <A_Greedy_Squid> So all you need, is the horse, and we're off to a magic ride through wonderland
- [2011-11-20 17:02:09] <Guile> Anyway, these are black ops dudes. they should be willing to pursue strength and advantages in battle without prompting from us
- [2011-11-20 17:02:10] <cornelius> I'm going to stop you before this metaphor becomes strange and unwieldy...
- [2011-11-20 17:02:19] <cornelius> Damn, too late
- [2011-11-20 17:03:28] <MrTT> buttz, guile, can you explain my idea to me?
- [2011-11-20 17:03:41] <MrTT> since i was joking and don't see how it is that it will win us the fight
- [2011-11-20 17:03:49] <MrTT> @Bob: that was awesome
- [2011-11-20 17:03:54] <MrTT> what anime is that from?
- [2011-11-20 17:04:00] <Guile> fate/zero
- [2011-11-20 17:04:03] <Guile> good stuff
- [2011-11-20 17:04:06] <BUTTZ> Armas has a level 7 talky-man trait
- [2011-11-20 17:04:08] <A_Greedy_Squid> Also, I am disapoint there's no music for our spar with Camella
- [2011-11-20 17:04:11] <InsufferableMystic> I want a third eye
- [2011-11-20 17:04:22] <InsufferableMystic> it would be handy
- [2011-11-20 17:04:32] <BUTTZ> All he has to do to win, is start talking during the fight. It's poor form and it won't win any points with Camella or Ito, but it's there
- [2011-11-20 17:04:36] * A_Greedy_Squid shoves a babbythulu into IM's forehead
- [2011-11-20 17:04:39] <cornelius> Third eye?
- [2011-11-20 17:04:43] <cornelius> We only have one eye
- [2011-11-20 17:04:46] <cornelius> We'll need to steal two
- [2011-11-20 17:04:56] <MrTT> get soul eyes like cemalle
- [2011-11-20 17:04:59] <MrTT> camella
- [2011-11-20 17:05:07] <MrTT> 2 soul eyes + 1 real eye = 3
- [2011-11-20 17:05:28] <A_Greedy_Squid> Bob said that if we focus our chakras on our crown chakra, we would unlock some kind of prophetic third eye
- [2011-11-20 17:05:45] <MrTT> looking good is more imprtant than winning
- [2011-11-20 17:06:28] <Alratan> I want to see if we can enchant our metal eye to be able to perceive
- [2011-11-20 17:06:36] <Alratan> in some fashion
- [2011-11-20 17:06:41] <MrTT> i wonder, with our healing, how good are we in shrugging blows?
- [2011-11-20 17:06:45] <MrTT> say, a punc to the stomach?
- [2011-11-20 17:07:02] <MrTT> @alratan, armas already has, for some reason, no loss of perception
- [2011-11-20 17:07:05] <Alratan> it would still count as a loss
- [2011-11-20 17:07:06] <A_Greedy_Squid> She'd probably cause serious internal hemorrhaging
- [2011-11-20 17:07:09] <MrTT> even though he has only one eye
- [2011-11-20 17:07:12] <MrTT> he has no blind spot
- [2011-11-20 17:07:14] <Alratan> I'm not sure
- [2011-11-20 17:07:21] <Alratan> I think we'd be even better with two
- [2011-11-20 17:07:30] <Alratan> anyway, I meant something funky
- [2011-11-20 17:07:31] <A_Greedy_Squid> We can see even MORE than we would with 2 normal eyes, with our 1 eye.
- [2011-11-20 17:07:33] <MrTT> @Greedy squid, and armas insta heals that and perhaps gets her with a hit of his own
- [2011-11-20 17:07:39] <Alratan> like infra-red sight
- [2011-11-20 17:07:47] <Alratan> or te ability to see magic
- [2011-11-20 17:07:55] <A_Greedy_Squid> Or the futuuuuure
- [2011-11-20 17:07:55] <Alratan> or to see things that are hidden
- [2011-11-20 17:08:02] <Arkeus> Camella's soul is very fun
- [2011-11-20 17:08:03] <Arkeus> :-)
- [2011-11-20 17:08:07] <Alratan> like the contents of the eye is hidden
- [2011-11-20 17:08:08] <MrTT> i think most of perception increases are best when coming from soul
- [2011-11-20 17:08:08] <A_Greedy_Squid> No it isnt
- [2011-11-20 17:08:16] <MrTT> we need an en bubble of detection
- [2011-11-20 17:08:19] <A_Greedy_Squid> Her soul...has soul eyes
- [2011-11-20 17:08:22] <Alratan> so, no improvements for my post?
- [2011-11-20 17:08:25] <MrTT> like that einher's pulsed attention
- [2011-11-20 17:08:32] <MrTT> haven't read your post
- [2011-11-20 17:08:35] <MrTT> yet
- [2011-11-20 17:08:35] <Arkeus> MrTT: that we do
- [2011-11-20 17:08:39] <A_Greedy_Squid> read it, MrTT
- [2011-11-20 17:08:44] <MrTT> i don't have the time
- [2011-11-20 17:08:48] <MrTT> i don't have the time to chat with you either
- [2011-11-20 17:08:52] <A_Greedy_Squid> Yet you do have to chat with us
- [2011-11-20 17:08:54] <MrTT> i can't afford to miss my flight and i need to get ready
- [2011-11-20 17:08:56] <Alratan> catch your plane
- [2011-11-20 17:09:04] <A_Greedy_Squid> Sure. You sure are getting ready.
- [2011-11-20 17:09:07] <MrTT> i have 50 minutes to get everything ready.
- [2011-11-20 17:09:24] <Ironybot> So guys, speculation on Ito's notable students, if any?
- [2011-11-20 17:09:25] <MrTT> that includes printing directions to customer, and packing the right equipment (luckily i have most of it already packed
- [2011-11-20 17:09:29] <A_Greedy_Squid> Pack extra underwear.
- [2011-11-20 17:09:33] <MrTT> i did
- [2011-11-20 17:09:37] <MrTT> :)
- [2011-11-20 17:09:37] <A_Greedy_Squid> Good!
- [2011-11-20 17:09:39] <MrTT> clothes already packed
- [2011-11-20 17:09:44] <MrTT> clothes take 1 minute to pack
- [2011-11-20 17:09:49] <A_Greedy_Squid> Never forget extra underweat
- [2011-11-20 17:09:57] <Alratan> we also did something very stupid by not taking a look at Camella's soul from the moment we walked in the door
- [2011-11-20 17:10:08] <Alratan> and only doing so after we already attacked
- [2011-11-20 17:10:10] <A_Greedy_Squid> Or maybe because Bob was too tired to include that
- [2011-11-20 17:10:15] <Ironybot> Apparently we don't reflexively assess souls.
- [2011-11-20 17:10:22] <Alratan> we need to start
- [2011-11-20 17:10:25] <Arkeus> Alratan, if you have a slcik idea, you MUST roll
- [2011-11-20 17:10:29] <Arkeus> why didn't you roll?
- [2011-11-20 17:10:30] <Ironybot> I had thought that we did already, but eh.
- [2011-11-20 17:10:37] <Ironybot> Because he wanted IRC review before locking his post in.
- [2011-11-20 17:10:45] <Alratan> because we can't delete posts with rolls anymore
- [2011-11-20 17:10:49] <A_Greedy_Squid> Could have posted it in discthread
- [2011-11-20 17:10:52] <A_Greedy_Squid> ?discthread
- [2011-11-20 17:10:53] <Classhole> http://tgchan.org/kusaba/questdis/res/347115+50.html
- [2011-11-20 17:11:01] <Alratan> yes, I could
- [2011-11-20 17:11:09] <Arkeus> oh, also
- [2011-11-20 17:11:12] <Alratan> but didn't
- [2011-11-20 17:11:14] <Arkeus> A couple of things to add, then
- [2011-11-20 17:11:28] <Arkeus> First, our chakra are stal attuned to stealth
- [2011-11-20 17:11:35] <Arkeus> And we have soul manip
- [2011-11-20 17:11:36] <Alratan> yes, and?
- [2011-11-20 17:11:39] <A_Greedy_Squid> Let's fixed that to: 'Help SB'
- [2011-11-20 17:11:47] <A_Greedy_Squid> fix*
- [2011-11-20 17:11:50] <Alratan> why
- [2011-11-20 17:12:00] <Alratan> SB is not going to be of any further help today
- [2011-11-20 17:12:03] <A_Greedy_Squid> Cause he needs it. Of course, but that's after the fight
- [2011-11-20 17:12:09] <Arkeus> We cna...gauge.. how her soul sees us, and try to use our goblinoic training to 'hide' our soul the same way we 'hide' our body
- [2011-11-20 17:12:20] <Arkeus> So that we have blind-spot soul fighting
- [2011-11-20 17:12:47] <Arkeus> Well, we can try to
- [2011-11-20 17:12:50] <Alratan> To her soul sense, we curently look like some odd denizen of the NN, not like a human
- [2011-11-20 17:13:03] <A_Greedy_Squid> yip yip
- [2011-11-20 17:13:03] <Alratan> I'm not sure how much more we can do
- [2011-11-20 17:13:11] <BUTTZ> I think it's funny how you think she has soul sense
- [2011-11-20 17:13:21] <A_Greedy_Squid> Not only that, we look like one FUCKED UP denizen of the NN
- [2011-11-20 17:13:21] <BUTTZ> She's just got a finely trained ability to pay attention
- [2011-11-20 17:13:22] <Arkeus> She doesn't have exactly soul sense
- [2011-11-20 17:13:28] |<-- EvilP has left irc.rizon.net (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
- [2011-11-20 17:13:29] <Arkeus> that uses her soul
- [2011-11-20 17:13:31] <cornelius> For the other students we noted?
- [2011-11-20 17:13:59] <cornelius> The shaved woman makes me think Triad
- [2011-11-20 17:14:00] <Arkeus> Alratan: what i am saying is uses our soul to act on her blind spots liek goblinoic training taught us to do
- [2011-11-20 17:14:07] <Arkeus> The same way we move our body
- [2011-11-20 17:14:12] <cornelius> Did Armas note her race Bob?
- [2011-11-20 17:14:23] <BUTTZ> Remember how Armas noted that even mundane humans have the ability to read Attention
- [2011-11-20 17:14:30] <BUTTZ> It's a feature of having a soul, likely
- [2011-11-20 17:14:31] <Arkeus> BUTTZ: yes
- [2011-11-20 17:14:35] <Arkeus> and it has to do with soul
- [2011-11-20 17:14:37] <Arkeus> indeed
- [2011-11-20 17:14:37] <A_Greedy_Squid> I think Bob's not currently here
- [2011-11-20 17:15:09] <MrTT> armas does somehow have soul eyes
- [2011-11-20 17:15:16] <Alratan> plane!
- [2011-11-20 17:15:17] <MrTT> its how he isn't being impeded by having only one working eye
- [2011-11-20 17:15:18] <Alratan> packing!
- [2011-11-20 17:15:20] <A_Greedy_Squid> Yeah, yet he can't see his own soul
- [2011-11-20 17:15:25] <MrTT> its how he could sense snipers attention on himself
- [2011-11-20 17:15:38] <MrTT> well, can you see your own head with your eyes without a mirror?
- [2011-11-20 17:15:40] <MrTT> oho
- [2011-11-20 17:15:43] <MrTT> SB is our soul mirror
- [2011-11-20 17:15:53] <MrTT> can he scope out our soul and feed it into our senses and vice versa
- [2011-11-20 17:16:01] <Arkeus> <A_Greedy_Squid> Yeah, yet he can't see his own soul <= seeing our own souls is much harder than seeing other's soul
- [2011-11-20 17:16:04] <Arkeus> einrik told us that
- [2011-11-20 17:16:08] <Arkeus> wait, no, amen told us that
- [2011-11-20 17:16:27] <A_Greedy_Squid> Doesn't matter
- [2011-11-20 17:16:34] <A_Greedy_Squid> Hillevi's soul is self-aware
- [2011-11-20 17:16:49] <Arkeus> SBs too tired, though he might be able to give us a sense of approval if we want to use goblinoic stealth with our soul
- [2011-11-20 17:17:07] <Alratan> I can't even comprehend how that would work
- [2011-11-20 17:17:13] <Arkeus> hot/cold kind of stuff
- [2011-11-20 17:17:18] <Arkeus> Alratan: easy
- [2011-11-20 17:17:21] <Alratan> SB has managed to learn how to keep his soul in the NN
- [2011-11-20 17:17:27] <MrTT> hilevi had magical training from birth
- [2011-11-20 17:17:29] <A_Greedy_Squid> No, the Dark.
- [2011-11-20 17:17:33] <Arkeus> We have Goblinoic training in how to read attention and how to evade that attention
- [2011-11-20 17:17:38] <Alratan> The Dark is part of the NN
- [2011-11-20 17:17:42] <Alratan> but I don't think we're learning that in a hurry
- [2011-11-20 17:17:44] <Arkeus> We have our chakra attuned to Goblinoic Stealth
- [2011-11-20 17:17:59] <Alratan> and?
- [2011-11-20 17:17:59] <MrTT> SB is too tired now, we don't do things with him now we do them later
- [2011-11-20 17:18:00] <Arkeus> We need to use that in order to also move/hide/flxible our soul the same way
- [2011-11-20 17:18:04] <A_Greedy_Squid> Something tells me this won't be simple...
- [2011-11-20 17:18:06] <MrTT> armas does not need to see his own soul in this battle
- [2011-11-20 17:18:13] <Arkeus> He doesn't need to SEE it
- [2011-11-20 17:18:31] <Arkeus> but gettign a snse of approval if we manage to use goblinoic stealth with it is good
- [2011-11-20 17:18:50] <Arkeus> Alratan: it has nothing to do with the dark i am talking about
- [2011-11-20 17:19:17] <Arkeus> I am talking about using Goblinoic stealth, the same way we do with our body, but with our soul
- [2011-11-20 17:19:50] <Alratan> Goblin stealth is all about avoiding attention
- [2011-11-20 17:20:02] <Arkeus> By moving in certain ways
- [2011-11-20 17:20:04] <Arkeus> and detecting it
- [2011-11-20 17:20:31] <Arkeus> It's about fluidity and flexibility too
- [2011-11-20 17:20:40] <Arkeus> And our chakra are attuend to goblinoic stealth
- [2011-11-20 17:20:40] <Alratan> not really, the basis of goblin is detecting where people intend to direct their Attention next and dodging that place
- [2011-11-20 17:20:52] <Alratan> Camella does not intend to move her soul eye about
- [2011-11-20 17:20:52] <Arkeus> Not just that
- [2011-11-20 17:21:09] <Arkeus> It's about moving in ways that make people ignore us
- [2011-11-20 17:21:18] <Alratan> so that part of the technique, which is described as essential for the stealth to work, doesn't function
- [2011-11-20 17:21:31] <Alratan> Arkeus: No, not reallt
- [2011-11-20 17:21:32] <Arkeus> Again, Alratan, you are ignorign a lot of the technique
- [2011-11-20 17:21:34] <Alratan> no
- [2011-11-20 17:21:45] <Arkeus> A lot of goblinoic stealth is about flexibility
- [2011-11-20 17:22:15] <Arkeus> Lack of 'noise', lack of 'impact'
- [2011-11-20 17:23:32] <Alratan> ">[Goblin]"-ot enough to simply know where someone's attention is-you must know where it will be. Lacking that, no amount of perception will let you truly Sneak-merely observe, and watch. This is why you must master that sense of attention, muster it into...." "
- [2011-11-20 17:23:33] <Arkeus> It's not just about not being seen
- [2011-11-20 17:23:38] <Arkeus> Yes
- [2011-11-20 17:23:40] <Arkeus> that's a prt
- [2011-11-20 17:23:48] <Alratan> with emphasis on will
- [2011-11-20 17:23:52] <Arkeus> Yes
- [2011-11-20 17:23:57] <Guile> son of a bitch, lost my post because its not accepting youtube videos
- [2011-11-20 17:23:57] <Arkeus> But you are ginoring the rest
- [2011-11-20 17:24:07] <Arkeus> Guile: heh
- [2011-11-20 17:24:08] <Arkeus> :-(
- [2011-11-20 17:24:22] <InsufferableMystic> Go back
- [2011-11-20 17:24:31] <InsufferableMystic> Might still be in edit
- [2011-11-20 17:24:37] <Guile> tried
- [2011-11-20 17:24:42] <InsufferableMystic> :(
- [2011-11-20 17:24:46] <Arkeus> That's why i have it in txt
- [2011-11-20 17:24:54] <Ironybot> Always put your entire post into copy/paste before hitting submit, man. Always.
- [2011-11-20 17:26:18] <Ironybot> On other topics, all the Reapers are supposed to be total badass combatants even before getting into their company, right? Do you think we could tear out a certain soul's combat Traits and steal them for ourselves?
- [2011-11-20 17:26:22] <Guile> I usually do, but I copy pasted the youtube link in after
- [2011-11-20 17:26:35] <Alratan> You know, one of the obvious things the goblins should have taught us, but didn't, is how to sneak around someone who can detect Attention
- [2011-11-20 17:26:42] <Ironybot> Delicious military competence, we must have it.
- [2011-11-20 17:26:48] <Alratan> as you get stuck in a bit of recursive loop
- [2011-11-20 17:27:19] <Alratan> IronyBot; There's a reason I've wanted to buy a lifetimes worth of time training golbins in modern warfre
- [2011-11-20 17:27:23] <BUTTZ> The goblins taught us everything we could learn
- [2011-11-20 17:27:32] <cornelius> Well we can see memories in a soul
- [2011-11-20 17:27:34] <Alratan> not convinced
- [2011-11-20 17:27:35] <cornelius> As a haze around it
- [2011-11-20 17:27:41] <TheBeardiestBob> I.... am conflicted
- [2011-11-20 17:27:42] <cornelius> If we can look at those
- [2011-11-20 17:27:42] <BUTTZ> And, ah, I'd contend that they did cover stealthing from Attention-aware people
- [2011-11-20 17:27:48] <TheBeardiestBob> I want to go out and get some food.
- [2011-11-20 17:27:49] <Ironybot> Buying things from the goblins is bloody expensive.
- [2011-11-20 17:27:50] <Alratan> we didn't learn anything about sneaking up on someone who can see with their soul
- [2011-11-20 17:27:50] <BUTTZ> Look at our initial interaction with the Redcaps
- [2011-11-20 17:27:52] <cornelius> And somehow grab a hold and have say Einrik work them into a useable state
- [2011-11-20 17:27:53] <TheBeardiestBob> But I don't know what KIND.
- [2011-11-20 17:28:04] <Arkeus> TheBeardiestBob: Indian
- [2011-11-20 17:28:09] <TheBeardiestBob> I'm not feeling like mexican, chinese, sushi or indian.
- [2011-11-20 17:28:15] <Alratan> pie
- [2011-11-20 17:28:16] <Ironybot> Pasta?
- [2011-11-20 17:28:19] <cornelius> Greek?
- [2011-11-20 17:28:24] <cornelius> Greek is usually good
- [2011-11-20 17:28:31] <Arkeus> TheBeardiestBob: Korean
- [2011-11-20 17:29:18] <Ironybot> Or get a steak somewhere. Hard to go wrong with large, still-bloody slabs of meat; just ask Armas.
- [2011-11-20 17:29:21] <Arkeus> Also, the way Camella's soul feel familiar (her attention) might be because we DID receive training there
- [2011-11-20 17:29:26] <Arkeus> lol
- [2011-11-20 17:31:45] <MrTT> take a potato, 8 minutes in microwave
- [2011-11-20 17:31:49] <MrTT> put some sour cream on it
- [2011-11-20 17:31:51] <MrTT> and salsa
- [2011-11-20 17:32:06] <MrTT> well... i am done getting ready 30 minutes early
- [2011-11-20 17:32:15] =-= Guile is now known as Guileaway
- [2011-11-20 17:32:23] <MrTT> but... do i have enough time to run to worstbuy and get myself a kindle?
- [2011-11-20 17:32:33] <MrTT> because I don't think I can handle another flight with nothing to do but sleep
- [2011-11-20 17:32:39] <MrTT> or rather, try to
- [2011-11-20 17:34:01] <MrTT> i was gonna buy it earlier
- [2011-11-20 17:34:03] <MrTT> but skyrim happened
- [2011-11-20 17:34:35] <cornelius> Speaking of Skyrim
- [2011-11-20 17:34:37] <cornelius> Skyrim time
- [2011-11-20 17:34:50] <Captain-Lightning> Speaking of speaking of Skyrim
- [2011-11-20 17:34:53] <Captain-Lightning> Skyrim time.
- [2011-11-20 17:36:16] <Arkeus> After wrapping up here, back home or straight to the meeting with Jagda? <= Jagda is the professor, right?
- [2011-11-20 17:36:17] <Wutenheimer> niggers i was already playin skyrim
- [2011-11-20 17:36:25] <Wutenheimer> i was playing skyrim before it was cool
- [2011-11-20 17:36:28] <Arkeus> How the hell can we meet him if we don't have the Kelspie?
- [2011-11-20 17:36:31] <Alratan> Yeah, we're meeting him at home at 6 pm
- [2011-11-20 17:36:32] <BUTTZ> Hey Wut are you going to roll?
- [2011-11-20 17:36:52] <MrTT> i could... spend my last 30 minutes at home for a few day splaying skyrim
- [2011-11-20 17:36:58] <Wutenheimer> roll for what, i dont have a plan
- [2011-11-20 17:37:07] <MrTT> or i could file an expense report so i get my money for last trip a week sooner
- [2011-11-20 17:37:15] <BUTTZ> Money
- [2011-11-20 17:37:16] <Alratan> expense report
- [2011-11-20 17:37:34] <TheBeardiestBob> Money
- [2011-11-20 17:37:40] <Arkeus> lol
- [2011-11-20 17:37:41] <MrTT> yea
- [2011-11-20 17:37:42] <MrTT> you are right
- [2011-11-20 17:37:56] <TheBeardiestBob> Money trumps shenanigans 9/10
- [2011-11-20 17:37:58] <MrTT> and hey, maybe when i come back skyrim would be patched
- [2011-11-20 17:38:03] <Alratan> haha
- [2011-11-20 17:38:04] <Ironybot> The key question you need to answer in order to choose between those options is: Are you powered by GREED, or by SLOTH?
- [2011-11-20 17:38:10] <MrTT> well, i am getting the money either way, its just a matter of getting it now or later
- [2011-11-20 17:38:24] <Alratan> you go on believing it
- [2011-11-20 17:38:25] <Captain-Lightning> Greed.
- [2011-11-20 17:38:27] <MrTT> if i file it now i get it a week earlier
- [2011-11-20 17:39:50] <MrTT> its 1000 bucks or so
- [2011-11-20 17:39:50] <MrTT> to 1500
- [2011-11-20 17:39:50] <BUTTZ> A 1000 bucks you can put to use doing something for you
- [2011-11-20 17:39:50] <BUTTZ> Maybe buy stock in one of those companies that makes tear-gas
- [2011-11-20 17:39:50] <MrTT> lol
- [2011-11-20 17:39:50] <MrTT> more like "pay off credit card"
- [2011-11-20 17:39:50] <MrTT> or 'part of credit card"
- [2011-11-20 17:39:50] <MrTT> or "student loans"
- [2011-11-20 17:39:50] <BUTTZ> Hell yeah
- [2011-11-20 17:39:50] <MrTT> but again, i will get it, its just a week early
- [2011-11-20 17:39:50] <BUTTZ> Interest you aren't paying is interest you're not being bled
- [2011-11-20 17:39:50] <MrTT> so... how much is one week of interest worth?
- [2011-11-20 17:39:59] <Alratan> it's one week less chance for the company to go tits up and never pay you back
- [2011-11-20 17:40:04] <MrTT> and btw, i am currently scanning receipts furiously
- [2011-11-20 17:40:11] <MrTT> that is true alratan
- [2011-11-20 17:40:14] <MrTT> very true
- [2011-11-20 17:40:16] <MrTT> and a possibility
- [2011-11-20 17:40:41] <Alratan> it happened to people I knew at Lehmans
- [2011-11-20 17:40:53] <Alratan> they never got the money back
- [2011-11-20 17:41:29] <Arkeus> Did bob say what the Bonus gave us?
- [2011-11-20 17:41:37] <BUTTZ> Not to my knowledge
- [2011-11-20 17:41:47] <MrTT> damn
- [2011-11-20 17:42:30] <MrTT> mmm... technically i am a contractor not an employee. this could matter a lot. Maybe I should start demanding they give an advance for my expenses before each trip
- [2011-11-20 17:43:00] <Ironybot> Are your skills specialized enough that they are catering to your demands on that sort of thing?
- [2011-11-20 17:43:24] <MrTT> maybe
- [2011-11-20 17:43:48] <Alratan> MrTT: it's unsecured debt either way
- [2011-11-20 17:43:59] <Alratan> best thing to do is get the claim in as soon as posisble
- [2011-11-20 17:44:04] <Alratan> every time
- [2011-11-20 17:44:11] <Alratan> and not let large balances build up

- [2011-11-20 18:01:42] <BUTTZ> Make sure it's safe and use the old appartment
- [2011-11-20 18:02:15] <BUTTZ> Or we could just rent a hotel room to host him for a few hours.
- [2011-11-20 18:02:26] <Alratan> A conference room in a hotel
- [2011-11-20 18:02:30] <Alratan> SOunds best
- [2011-11-20 18:02:31] <BUTTZ> Nice ones will have an en suite kitchen
- [2011-11-20 18:02:41] <Alratan> conference suite
- [2011-11-20 18:02:46] <Alratan> I'll suggest that
- [2011-11-20 18:03:00] <Ironybot> Pricey to get on short notice. Why not ust ask him where his house is?
- [2011-11-20 18:03:15] <Alratan> would you tell us?
- [2011-11-20 18:03:24] <Alratan> also, it's off season

- [2011-11-20 18:07:39] <BUTTZ> I think we should focus on SotG integration rather than M7 attempts
- [2011-11-20 18:07:44] <A_Greedy_Squid> ^
- [2011-11-20 18:07:50] <A_Greedy_Squid> No fuck that. BOTH
- [2011-11-20 18:08:11] <Alratan> Teh first M7 is an attempt to get us the time and confidence to make the attempt
- [2011-11-20 18:08:17] <BUTTZ> Yeah I get that
- [2011-11-20 18:08:41] <BUTTZ> Too bad we can't displace our sense of attention on her so that it appears to come from elsewhere
- [2011-11-20 18:08:57] <Alratan> The second is an attempt to actually make M7 into a combat trait of sorts, merging it with our SotG
- [2011-11-20 18:09:19] <Alratan> as M7 is general manipulation, not just words
- [2011-11-20 18:09:54] <BUTTZ> We really just need some time to fully integrate Kas Pin I guess

- [2011-11-20 18:13:17] <InsufferableMystic> Actually we can work with having someone's attention on us, instead of trying to escape it we should manipulate it
- [2011-11-20 18:13:37] <Ironybot> Yes, that was discussed earlier.
- [2011-11-20 18:13:44] <Alratan> Yep, that's what nearly what I propose
- [2011-11-20 18:13:45] <InsufferableMystic> Good

- [2011-11-20 18:25:20] <Guile> Al, bob said he would ID interesting souls as they came up. Maybe Camella's soul only started unfolding and doing the spiritual attention everywhere trick during the fight?
- [2011-11-20 18:25:39] <Guile> or I guess it could be because it was more interesting narratively
- [2011-11-20 18:25:39] <Ironybot> I'm looking forward to fighting Camella at night, when we can go all out- and introduce Shadowbro to the question. To the best of my knowledge, Camella has no defense whatsoever against him, nor ability to strike back at him.
- [2011-11-20 18:25:56] <Ironybot> Question->equation. That figure of speech kind of fell apart there.
- [2011-11-20 18:26:12] <Ironybot> Anyway, it'll be interesting to see what she comes up with.
- [2011-11-20 18:26:59] <Guile> should we bother? I dont see any real reason to bring SB or Sake to a fight with Camella. I'd really rather keep aces sleeved, even against her
- [2011-11-20 18:27:12] <Guile> and its not like we need to win fights with her
- [2011-11-20 18:29:09] <Ironybot> I think it would be a valuable training experience for both parties. All three parties, rather.
- [2011-11-20 18:29:53] <Guile> if she has no defense against it...?
- [2011-11-20 18:30:25] <Guile> maybe valuable for the next time we run into Cornelius, I guess
- [2011-11-20 18:30:31] <Guile> heh
- [2011-11-20 18:32:05] <Ironybot> If she has no defense against it, then it's all the more important to train with her- because you better believe that she'll bend her energies to coming up with a defense as soon as she can.
- [2011-11-20 18:33:26] <A_Greedy_Squid> Oh boy

- [2011-11-20 19:03:34] <Guile> but we can do it while chakra is aspected to something else

- [2011-11-20 19:04:36] <TMIoverload> You also said having us guide him, and no, as that requires him to think about it. His straining is primarily mental. he basicly needs to relax and not think
- [2011-11-20 19:04:37] <Guile> well, what else have we seen taoism do? Go Ping heals, the Disciples get superhuman stats and their weapons do some nasty damage, there's the Leaping Corpses, plus whatever the souls-inna-box are being used for
- [2011-11-20 19:04:40] <Arkeus> Guile: Well, chakra and soul are probably thing we'll be able to aspect on the fly

- [2011-11-20 19:04:59] <A_Greedy_Squid> CHAKRA TAKES AT LEAST ONE DAY MEDITATING
- [2011-11-20 19:05:08] <Guile> he didnt even want to talk to us, remember; for a purely mental construct like him, exhaustion hurts his brain, I think
- [2011-11-20 19:05:09] <Arkeus> A_Greedy_Squid: not for us
- [2011-11-20 19:05:15] <TMIoverload> Greed, that was before we had soul bloodlines
- [2011-11-20 19:05:20] <Arkeus> Guile: there is that thing he uses to ward communication
- [2011-11-20 19:05:27] <Guile> that might be tech
- [2011-11-20 19:05:41] <A_Greedy_Squid> Hmm. Okay, prob not 1 day, but I'm sure we can't do it 'on the fly'
- [2011-11-20 19:05:53] <Arkeus> Guile: keep in mind that approval/disapproval is soemthing he could do when he couldn't EVEN talk to us at all
- [2011-11-20 19:06:02] <Arkeus> So i'd say it cost him much, much less
- [2011-11-20 19:06:02] <TMIoverload> With internal soul manipulation, we might.
- [2011-11-20 19:06:12] <Guile> I mean, he may be so exhausted he doesnt even want to THINK
- [2011-11-20 19:06:13] <TMIoverload> We'd need to wait for our bloodline to be completed probably though
- [2011-11-20 19:06:22] <Arkeus> Guile: ah, i think he can think
- [2011-11-20 19:06:27] <Arkeus> iirc, he said he was ok with that
- [2011-11-20 19:06:27] <A_Greedy_Squid> We'd need to wait for bloodline, and Laib training
- [2011-11-20 19:06:39] <Arkeus> not just laib training
- [2011-11-20 19:06:40] <TMIoverload> He can, but he doesn't want to Ark. He's mentally strained
- [2011-11-20 19:06:41] <Arkeus> chakra training
- [2011-11-20 19:06:45] <Arkeus> Yes
- [2011-11-20 19:06:55] <A_Greedy_Squid> Chakra training, bloodline and Laib training
- [2011-11-20 19:06:56] <A_Greedy_Squid> Fuck year
- [2011-11-20 19:07:04] <Arkeus> But thinking is something he doesn't mind, iirc
- [2011-11-20 19:07:09] <Arkeus> A_Greedy_Squid: not just laib, btw
- [2011-11-20 19:07:12] <Arkeus> but, yeah
- [2011-11-20 19:07:14] <Guile> and we disagree
- [2011-11-20 19:07:22] <Arkeus> i'll try to find quotes
- [2011-11-20 19:07:23] <A_Greedy_Squid> Also, Remember what bob said
- [2011-11-20 19:07:30] <Arkeus> A_Greedy_Squid: about?
- [2011-11-20 19:07:41] <A_Greedy_Squid> The more lives we have stored, the less chance of us fucking up on soul manip
- [2011-11-20 19:08:06] <Captain-Lightning> This channel
- [2011-11-20 19:08:08] <Captain-Lightning> Makes me rage
- [2011-11-20 19:08:12] <Guile> I suppose SB art would help him recover faster
- [2011-11-20 19:08:13] <Samar> why?
- [2011-11-20 19:08:14] <Arkeus> >"Yes, and please leave me be unless the question is important, conserving energy." <= conserving energy
- [2011-11-20 19:08:15] <A_Greedy_Squid> Why?
- [2011-11-20 19:08:25] <Arkeus> Guile: yeah, possibly
- [2011-11-20 19:08:34] <A_Greedy_Squid> No one's saying the G-word
- [2011-11-20 19:08:42] <Arkeus> your nale
- [2011-11-20 19:08:44] <Arkeus> name
- [2011-11-20 19:08:49] <A_Greedy_Squid> It has a y
- [2011-11-20 19:08:49] <TMIoverload> He isn't just conserving energy. We were outright told that he's been mentally strained
- [2011-11-20 19:09:08] <Arkeus> TMIoverload: not 'strained'
- [2011-11-20 19:09:11] <Arkeus> exhausted
- [2011-11-20 19:09:21] <Samar> he is undergoing backlash of NN training
- [2011-11-20 19:09:24] <TMIoverload> The y changes nothing. I use meh somewhere else, and the word somehow sets my thing off
- [2011-11-20 19:09:27] <Samar> plus his prior exhaustion
- [2011-11-20 19:10:22] <Arkeus> >[Iron Trick]"Doubtful. A shadowbeing's recoil for temporal disassociation is a bit too... intellectual for them to do much of anything until it passes. Thankfully the recovery period is far shorter than a mortals."
- [2011-11-20 19:10:36] <A_Greedy_Squid> Fine, imma change my nick
- [2011-11-20 19:10:44] =-= A_Greedy_Squid is now known as A_Hungry_Shark
- [2011-11-20 19:10:57] <A_Hungry_Shark> :D
- [2011-11-20 19:11:05] <TMIoverload> Why don't you go back to your old one and stick to one name
- [2011-11-20 19:11:08] <Arkeus> But, yeah, i don't think asking SB to gives us 'disapproval/approval' is in any way a tenth as hard as him guiding us throguh tunnels for ten minutes
- [2011-11-20 19:11:09] <TMIoverload> :D
- [2011-11-20 19:11:39] <A_Hungry_Shark> Let's...let's just let him rest
- [2011-11-20 19:11:56] <A_Hungry_Shark> And we should also bargain for some shadowfiend meat/heart
- [2011-11-20 19:12:01] <Arkeus> Yes, we should
- [2011-11-20 19:12:04] <Arkeus> we REALLY should
- [2011-11-20 19:12:30] <A_Hungry_Shark> Also, I wonder...when we eat something, wouldn't SB eat it too? Since...you know, he eats it's shadow
- [2011-11-20 19:12:39] <Arkeus> he recovers some of it
- [2011-11-20 19:12:58] <Arkeus> if we had regenerator high-quality stuff, it would help a bit, i think
- [2011-11-20 19:13:11] <A_Hungry_Shark> And it would be pretty awesome, if we had SB do the opposite of what we do
- [2011-11-20 19:13:19] <A_Hungry_Shark> >Raise right arm >Shadow raises Left arm
- [2011-11-20 19:13:34] <A_Hungry_Shark> >Dance >Shadow stays still
- [2011-11-20 19:13:36] <TMIoverload> By awesome you mean a needless tell
- [2011-11-20 19:14:07] <A_Hungry_Shark> >.<"
- [2011-11-20 19:14:33] <Arkeus> And, yeah
- [2011-11-20 19:14:48] <Arkeus> Leting our 'ID' fight would probably thwart her ability to sense us
- [2011-11-20 19:15:29] <A_Hungry_Shark> Oh god yes...but oh god no, Having IDArmas go on a rampage in Istanbul
- [2011-11-20 19:16:11] <Guile> a little much to win one spar, dont you think?
- [2011-11-20 19:16:32] <Arkeus> Indeed, that's why i didn't suggest it
- [2011-11-20 19:16:43] <Arkeus> Drunken Master!Armas is already a bit much
- [2011-11-20 19:17:19] <Arkeus> Also, if someone wants to make a R post, you can theorize right now that Drunken-Masters are done mainly in order to thwart other people's detection ability
- [2011-11-20 19:17:55] <Samar> except Armas knows that already
- [2011-11-20 19:18:08] <Samar> children and drunks can see through his goblinic stealth
- [2011-11-20 19:18:45] <Arkeus> I am saying that Drunken Martial Arts are *made* for that
- [2011-11-20 19:21:17] |<-- Guile has left irc.rizon.net (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
- [2011-11-20 19:23:53] <Ironybot> I doubt that an entire form of martial arts would be developed solely to thwart our kind of Attention-sensing. Makes me wonder if abilities which detect the intent or focus of opponents are relatively common.
- [2011-11-20 19:24:13] <Arkeus> Oh, i totally agree
- [2011-11-20 19:24:52] <Arkeus> And yes, i expect that abilities that use soul-sensing to detect what one's going to do is relatively common
- [2011-11-20 19:25:43] <Arkeus> I really think we need fanarts, if anyone's feeling up to them

- [2011-11-20 19:27:27] <Ironybot> I really don't think that a basic spar with Camella is worth deploying fanart over.
- [2011-11-20 19:28:48] <Arkeus> It is if it helps us get a new ability
- [2011-11-20 19:28:59] <Samar> this fight has the potential to get us the ability to avoid soul perception
- [2011-11-20 19:29:16] <Arkeus> Also, gotta lol at us monopolizing the last update Ironybot
- [2011-11-20 19:29:28] <Ironybot> Well, we did have some pretty solid suggestions.
- [2011-11-20 19:29:42] <Arkeus> And some pretty solid post numbers
- [2011-11-20 19:29:58] <Ironybot> I was sad that we didn't get Camella to agree to teach Hillevi to drive, though. That would have been great.
- [2011-11-20 19:30:14] <Samar> no car
- [2011-11-20 19:30:23] <Ironybot> A minor problem.
- [2011-11-20 19:30:53] <Samar> well, let me rephrase
- [2011-11-20 19:30:58] <Samar> no car that can seat a Valkonen
- [2011-11-20 19:31:43] <Ironybot> That is merely an excuse to find one- something sure to bring about ADVENTURE.
- [2011-11-20 19:32:01] <A_Hungry_Shark> ADVENTURE is good
- [2011-11-20 19:32:38] <TMIoverload> Adventure is good only after we finish the pressing issues we have.
- [2011-11-20 19:33:01] <Ironybot> This would be adventure for Camella and Hillevi.
- [2011-11-20 19:33:19] <Samar> oh god...
- [2011-11-20 19:33:28] <Samar> M7 vs car salesman.
- [2011-11-20 19:33:28] <Ironybot> Hillevi has a debit card backed by the Valkonen bank account, so they would go on a shopping trip...
- [2011-11-20 19:34:20] <TMIoverload> Is Hillevi's a direct link to the Valkonen's account? i thought it was her own separate account
- [2011-11-20 19:34:24] <Dart666> i kinda want to find a way of restoring Ito youth
- [2011-11-20 19:34:45] <Samar> we have a way, all we have to do is ask

- [2011-11-20 19:35:32] <Guile> thanks. anything interesting while I was gone>?
- [2011-11-20 19:35:33] <Dart666> just to see how strong he would be at his prime
- [2011-11-20 19:35:46] <Samar> reverse aging..
- [2011-11-20 19:35:52] <Samar> sounds like a job for Whaitiri
- [2011-11-20 19:36:02] <Arkeus> TMIoverload: i asked last night
- [2011-11-20 19:36:04] <Arkeus> he said yes
- [2011-11-20 19:36:18] <TMIoverload> Send me the exact quote?
- [2011-11-20 19:36:19] <Guile> we talking about Ito versus Lo Fang? Bob said the other day it's less a technique and more a side-effect of being a chakra master
- [2011-11-20 19:36:49] <Arkeus> [20-11 | 05:36:58] <Arkeus> TheBeardiestBob: could chakra age-maintenace revers ito's age?
- [2011-11-20 19:36:55] <Arkeus> [20-11 | 05:42:16] <TheBeardiestBob> Actually yeah, Ito could feel and move like Lo Fang if he were comperably accomplished with Chakra
- [2011-11-20 19:36:59] <Dart666> we must make him learn it
- [2011-11-20 19:37:10] <BUTTZ> Make him learn it?
- [2011-11-20 19:37:29] <Ironybot> Note that Bob didn't specify the use of a particular technique- it's if Ito reached Lo Fang's level of chakra accomplishment.
- [2011-11-20 19:37:38] <Ironybot> Which is... not a small upgrade from where he is now.
- [2011-11-20 19:37:54] <BUTTZ> I like how Ito is all "Whatever weird things you've met, you've got huge potential and all the finesse of a drunk ox"
- [2011-11-20 19:37:58] <Arkeus> Ironybot: indeed
- [2011-11-20 19:38:04] <Arkeus> Ito's better than i thought, though
- [2011-11-20 19:38:12] <Arkeus> And i think he could reach there
- [2011-11-20 19:38:54] <Guile> nah
- [2011-11-20 19:39:03] <InsufferableMystic> Ito is something Lo Fang will never be; A nice friend
- [2011-11-20 19:39:08] <TMIoverload> Ark, I think Ito is too old to reach that height through pure mundane teachings unless Lo Fang dropped everything to teach him. Lo Fang is older then he looks and all
- [2011-11-20 19:39:11] <Guile> if he's spent his life getting to where he's at, he's not gonna suddenly hit the plateau in the next year or two
- [2011-11-20 19:39:25] <Guile> well, nice is comparative... less shitty than some of our friends
- [2011-11-20 19:39:56] <Arkeus> TMIoverload: 'comparably'
- [2011-11-20 19:40:00] <Arkeus> he also said
- [2011-11-20 19:40:29] <Arkeus> <TheBeardiestBob> chakra experts can push two hundred if they don't do something stupid.
- [2011-11-20 19:41:26] <Ironybot> Which means that Lo Fang is basically in his early-mid career right now, even if he's really in his what, seventies or eighties I believe is the figure I've heard thrown around in here.
- [2011-11-20 19:41:47] <Guile> something like that
- [2011-11-20 19:43:16] <Arkeus> Yeah
- [2011-11-20 19:43:29] <Arkeus> And he is better than the official premier chakra user in Turkey
- [2011-11-20 19:44:10] <BUTTZ> No doubt about it, he cheated somehow
- [2011-11-20 19:44:36] <Arkeus> Or most of the truly great chakra users hide
- [2011-11-20 19:44:44] <Dart666> he might just be a genius
- [2011-11-20 19:45:11] <BUTTZ> He's power-hungry and manipulative. He's a more subtle and patient version of Armas.
- [2011-11-20 19:45:17] <BUTTZ> He cheated.
- [2011-11-20 19:45:31] <Ironybot> Or China is full of Chakra masters, with every town of a few thousand having one.
- [2011-11-20 19:45:43] <Ironybot> We don't know how common they are in what has been cited as the most magical nation on the planet.
- [2011-11-20 19:45:52] <Guile> and he got kicked out of the Northern Shaolin temple for something, probably being power-hungry and manipulative
- [2011-11-20 19:46:49] <Guile> although really, Im pretty sure the Shaolins teach anybody that has the coin and is willing to make a token effort to fit in
- [2011-11-20 19:46:59] <Guile> these days
- [2011-11-20 19:47:22] <Ironybot> I don't know if that would apply to their, y'know, master-level secrets.
- [2011-11-20 19:47:33] <Arkeus> I doubt they teach high-end chakra stuff
- [2011-11-20 19:48:19] <Dart666> we really should start doing some real training
- [2011-11-20 19:48:41] <Guile> guess it depends on the master
- [2011-11-20 19:48:52] <Guile> or some real jobs

- [2011-11-20 19:49:57] <Guile> if a book I read is accurate, some american asshole showed up, hung with them for three years and picked up a handful of styles
- [2011-11-20 19:50:39] <TheBeardiestBob> I am hopefully doing another update tonight to conclude the Ito visit, no promise-but I WILL Answer some Lo Fang backstory stuff from when he was twenty five and below.
- [2011-11-20 19:50:40] <Arkeus> I doubt that include Master-level chakra secrets
- [2011-11-20 19:50:43] <TheBeardiestBob> That sound of interest?
- [2011-11-20 19:50:48] <Arkeus> Yesss
- [2011-11-20 19:50:51] <Arkeus> OH , BOB
- [2011-11-20 19:50:54] <Arkeus> we want to know
- [2011-11-20 19:50:59] <Guile> So, WAS he kicked out for being too Armas?
- [2011-11-20 19:51:03] <Arkeus> Camella told us about Cat burglar?
- [2011-11-20 19:51:18] <Guile> or did he offend the wrong sensei, or...
- [2011-11-20 19:51:38] <Arkeus> Was someone even more of a manipulative bastard than him? :p
- [2011-11-20 19:51:45] <Arkeus> Like, kid of a master
- [2011-11-20 19:52:00] <TheBeardiestBob> He was exiled after having left, shortly after slaying the exalted master of the temple. (Incidentally, in GfH there are multiple Shaolin temples on the mountain, some fully real, some... not. Lo Fang started in a normal temple, got transferred to a magic one without a bloodline)
- [2011-11-20 19:52:02] <cornelius> Obviously he fell in love with a village girl and had a tragic mishap that led him down a tragic life of crime....nah
- [2011-11-20 19:52:18] <Arkeus> lol
- [2011-11-20 19:52:24] <Arkeus> cornelius is grail, right
- [2011-11-20 19:52:30] <TheBeardiestBob> Basically, he strived and strived to better himself, and abruptly realized in that act there was nowhere further for him to go here.
- [2011-11-20 19:53:26] <TheBeardiestBob> So he made the school self destruct around him with the slaying, and brought it down around him as his nihilistic squeezing of the last potential out of the place, he claimed several disciples in awe of his accomplishments.
- [2011-11-20 19:53:38] <TheBeardiestBob> That is what he did right around hitting 25
- [2011-11-20 19:53:44] <TheBeardiestBob> ask questions about shit from before then
- [2011-11-20 19:53:45] <TheBeardiestBob> go
- [2011-11-20 19:53:52] <Arkeus> ...Fuck, he is good
- [2011-11-20 19:54:06] <Guile> Wow. Any of the current crop of disciples from back then? Is Go Ping secretly like 55?
- [2011-11-20 19:54:10] <cornelius> What about his childhood?
- [2011-11-20 19:54:20] <Guile> probably dropped off as a child, like most of em
- [2011-11-20 19:54:39] <BUTTZ> What was his favorite game? Chess?
- [2011-11-20 19:55:02] <BUTTZ> What zodiac sign was he born under? Year of the Rat?
- [2011-11-20 19:55:09] <TheBeardiestBob> No, they are other bosses who rule different parts of the Triads (a few are actually in the Tongs and provide him info). four of his current disciples are descendents of those originals, the other three ones he stole in one of his 'every decade' trips back
- [2011-11-20 19:55:27] <TheBeardiestBob> where he 'harvests' new potential infiltrating as a kindly, travelling master seeking students
- [2011-11-20 19:55:42] <Arkeus> Lol
- [2011-11-20 19:55:43] <TheBeardiestBob> and knowing the lingo well enough he usually avoids recognition as 'oh fuck it's that guy'
- [2011-11-20 19:55:45] <Guile> wow, is he more the 'visiting celebrity' or the 'boogeyman' to the Shaolin temples?
- [2011-11-20 19:55:46] <Arkeus> what a bastard
- [2011-11-20 19:56:00] <Arkeus> "Oh fuck it's that guy" indeed
- [2011-11-20 19:56:20] <Arkeus> So he usually IS better than the Exalted masters?
- [2011-11-20 19:56:24] <TheBeardiestBob> Lo Fang is a boogeyman to them, but the kindly priest routine he's always changing up has been refined so well he can get the 'visiting celebrity' thing going
- [2011-11-20 19:56:28] <Arkeus> Are there Ranks above Exalted masterS?
- [2011-11-20 19:56:38] <Guile> well, if he killed one of them some 30+ years ago
- [2011-11-20 19:56:48] <TheBeardiestBob> Well he hasn't dicked with any of the completely immaterial temples
- [2011-11-20 19:56:51] <Arkeus> Guile: we killed people much better than us
- [2011-11-20 19:56:58] <Guile> true nuff
- [2011-11-20 19:57:07] <TheBeardiestBob> those ones are run by the Chinese dragons, with non-ruling dragons acting as instructors.
- [2011-11-20 19:57:17] <Arkeus> Ouch
- [2011-11-20 19:57:26] <Arkeus> There is more than one 'Chinese Dragon'?
- [2011-11-20 19:57:31] <TheBeardiestBob> Chinese dragons as a whole and ruler in particular are bound to do this from an oath made to the Yellow Emperor way back when.
- [2011-11-20 19:57:39] <Arkeus> Wow
- [2011-11-20 19:57:44] <Guile> I hear Buddhism is big in the temples. Is he Buddhist or Taoist?
- [2011-11-20 19:57:45] <Arkeus> that guy must have been all kind of badass
- [2011-11-20 19:57:46] <Ironybot> Why did he decide to do the pillage and burn routine instead of working his way into the immaterial temples and learning more from them?
- [2011-11-20 19:57:47] <Arkeus> and still is
- [2011-11-20 19:57:48] <TheBeardiestBob> Just like there's more of every nation's Dragon Arkeus
- [2011-11-20 19:57:50] <TheBeardiestBob> this isn't new.
- [2011-11-20 19:58:07] <Arkeus> TheBeardiestBob: i thought you meant 'Chinese Ruler Dragon'
- [2011-11-20 19:58:15] <Guile> he's in there too
- [2011-11-20 19:58:19] <Arkeus> with the way you said non-ruling as instructor
- [2011-11-20 19:58:21] <Arkeus> sorry about that
- [2011-11-20 19:58:22] <TheBeardiestBob> Because you CAN'T get into those without both a connection and an established bloodline
- [2011-11-20 19:58:29] <TheBeardiestBob> he got laughed at when he appleid
- [2011-11-20 19:58:31] <TheBeardiestBob> applied
- [2011-11-20 19:58:32] <Guile> dragons being pricks that way?
- [2011-11-20 19:58:38] <Ironybot> Ouch. That sucks.
- [2011-11-20 19:58:47] <Arkeus> Don't worry, he'll get a bloodline soon
- [2011-11-20 19:58:51] <TheBeardiestBob> even though he Rock Lee'd a good number of the others who got accepted each time he applied.
- [2011-11-20 19:58:51] <cornelius> Established bloodline as in established Chinese bloodline or any bloodline of note?
- [2011-11-20 19:59:04] <Guile> that would totally be something Armas would do if he got turned down. Armas, Blackbeard, Lo Fang - theyre not all THAT different
- [2011-11-20 19:59:15] <Guile> except he'd probably have to use explosives
- [2011-11-20 19:59:27] <Guile> or tricking different masters against one another
- [2011-11-20 19:59:29] <TheBeardiestBob> (For those who don't know: 'Rock Lee'ing' something is using fist and foot to shut down some wonky magic user irrelevant of how bullshit their power is.)
- [2011-11-20 19:59:32] <Arkeus> You know, i want to apply
- [2011-11-20 19:59:44] <Arkeus> <_<
- [2011-11-20 19:59:57] <Samar> Why?
- [2011-11-20 20:00:02] <Arkeus> TheBeardiestBob: the way camella is doing to Hillevi/us
- [2011-11-20 20:00:07] <BUTTZ> It's a shiney thing is my guess
- [2011-11-20 20:00:08] <Samar> another long roadtrip that will take three threads?
- [2011-11-20 20:00:08] <TheBeardiestBob> Basically
- [2011-11-20 20:00:09] <Arkeus> Samar: seems soul-magic heavy
- [2011-11-20 20:00:22] <TheBeardiestBob> Let's just call it 'getting Camella'ed' in GfH
- [2011-11-20 20:00:27] <Arkeus> lol
- [2011-11-20 20:00:29] <TheBeardiestBob> >use great magic
- [2011-11-20 20:00:33] <Arkeus> with Insane Rolls
- [2011-11-20 20:00:36] <TheBeardiestBob> >knocked the fuck out with foot to face
- [2011-11-20 20:00:42] <TheBeardiestBob> >U GOT CAMELLA'D
- [2011-11-20 20:00:55] <cornelius> Unless we somehow deal with all our pressing issues and can then fast forward like two months I'd rather not
- [2011-11-20 20:00:59] <Ironybot> Neither we nor Hillevi are using our bullshit powers at the moment, so I don't know that the current spars qualify. If we get curbstomped in a more serious fight that would count.
- [2011-11-20 20:01:02] <Arkeus> Camella must make you facepalm by trying to give her good encounters
- [2011-11-20 20:01:04] <Guile> "Behold my perfectly ultimate defense passed down from- ohshitfoottotheface!"
- [2011-11-20 20:01:04] <TheBeardiestBob> So questions on Lo Fang?
- [2011-11-20 20:01:17] <BUTTZ> What zodiac sign was he born under? Year of the Rat?
- [2011-11-20 20:01:18] <Guile> Buddhist or Taoist? or atheist, I guess
- [2011-11-20 20:01:38] <Arkeus> PARISTON
- [2011-11-20 20:01:40] <Arkeus> Ahem
- [2011-11-20 20:01:40] <cornelius> Was he dropped off as a child or did he go to temples later in life?
- [2011-11-20 20:01:47] <Ironybot> Has Lo Fang ever been in love?
- [2011-11-20 20:01:55] <Guile> and did he actually manage to take ALL the styles? Cuz Shaolin have a lot
- [2011-11-20 20:02:27] <Arkeus> What was his speciality while training? Direct combat? Misdirection? Chakra Seals/traps?
- [2011-11-20 20:02:51] <Guile> Paris-what?
- [2011-11-20 20:02:56] <Arkeus> PARISTON
- [2011-11-20 20:03:32] <TheBeardiestBob> Year of the Pig, Started Taoist, became nihilistic 'meticulous to the point of OCD' hollow polydeism. By that he acknowledges just about every god anyone even thinks exists-and does not give two shits about them, having long ago decided they weren't worth his time.
- [2011-11-20 20:03:46] <Guile> Yeah, still dont get it. He might be Year of the Cat- being ostracized and all
- [2011-11-20 20:03:51] <TheBeardiestBob> He was dropped off as a child, by what looked like peasants.
- [2011-11-20 20:03:53] <BUTTZ> Except when they ice up his warded chakra room
- [2011-11-20 20:03:59] <BUTTZ> Then he gets kinda pissy
- [2011-11-20 20:04:31] <TheBeardiestBob> Lo Fang loved twice at the temple, one ended alright, the other made him a bit angsty, wasn't why he did what he did, but did make it easier for him to find the focus he needed to get that good that early.
- [2011-11-20 20:04:38] <Guile> well, if they fuck with him, he probably fucked right back
- [2011-11-20 20:05:01] <Arkeus> http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lt2xluSVTB1qgiqq7o1_500.png <= the young guy, Guile
- [2011-11-20 20:05:09] <Arkeus> Killing Exalted masters through manipulation
- [2011-11-20 20:05:11] <Arkeus> Damn Rat
- [2011-11-20 20:05:20] <BUTTZ> Good classic education in addition to the martial arts training?
- [2011-11-20 20:05:32] <Guile> he comes off that way, anyhow
- [2011-11-20 20:05:54] <TheBeardiestBob> He did in fact learn each and every mundane style and a total of seventy two chakra-based AND THREE PRACTITIONER ONLY STYLES THAT ARE ONLY THEORETICAL FOR HIM yet he still memorized because he thought it would be handy.
- [2011-11-20 20:06:09] <Arkeus> ehhehe
- [2011-11-20 20:06:24] <TheBeardiestBob> His 'specialty' was the following list, in order of how well it clicked
- [2011-11-20 20:06:26] <Ironybot> Nice. This is not a man with Armas-style slow learning.
- [2011-11-20 20:06:34] <TheBeardiestBob> >1Taoist Charms
- [2011-11-20 20:06:41] <Guile> That's more like Camella genius
- [2011-11-20 20:06:45] <cornelius> Neither Armas style learning or Armas style time
- [2011-11-20 20:06:46] <TheBeardiestBob> >2 Freeform internal chakra regulation
- [2011-11-20 20:06:53] <TheBeardiestBob> >3 Buddhist charms
- [2011-11-20 20:06:57] <cornelius> Camella genius?
- [2011-11-20 20:07:07] <cornelius> Aren't Labombard/Savoy the best learners out of the group?
- [2011-11-20 20:07:09] <Arkeus> Well, it is Armas-Style LEARN EVERYTHING
- [2011-11-20 20:07:11] <cornelius> And Lo Fang above them?
- [2011-11-20 20:07:25] <Arkeus> I thoguht Camella was the best
- [2011-11-20 20:07:28] <Arkeus> Then Hillevi
- [2011-11-20 20:07:32] <cornelius> I recall asking previously
- [2011-11-20 20:07:35] <Arkeus> heh
- [2011-11-20 20:08:14] <Arkeus> bob: Very interesting. Freeform internal chakra regulation means switching from speed to toughness on the fly?
- [2011-11-20 20:08:17] <Arkeus> things like that?
- [2011-11-20 20:08:23] <TheBeardiestBob> So, any more Lo Fang questions? And yes BUTTZ, he got in some classical calligraphy, the arts, old-school but still useful etiquette stuff, all that.
- [2011-11-20 20:08:32] <TheBeardiestBob> Yes Arkeus
- [2011-11-20 20:08:47] <TheBeardiestBob> Lo Fang doesn't have much energy to work with, compared to most who regularly use chakra
- [2011-11-20 20:08:58] <Arkeus> Still? interesting
- [2011-11-20 20:09:27] <Arkeus> He's all grace
- [2011-11-20 20:09:29] <Arkeus> :D
- [2011-11-20 20:09:34] <TheBeardiestBob> Compared to a 'normal' chakra user who did what he did, he's about 60% under strength. He has low chakra stam, always has
- [2011-11-20 20:09:40] <ManOfTroy> Does Lo Fang have an embarrasing tattoo from his rebelious youth?
- [2011-11-20 20:09:52] <TheBeardiestBob> he works his ass off to mitigate it, and spent most of his youth learning how to stretch just a drop for miles, but still.
- [2011-11-20 20:09:58] <TMIoverload> During that time did he ever mess with anything that would be considered forbidden to students of the school? Styles they saw as anathema or tainted by western or some other influence?
- [2011-11-20 20:10:03] <cornelius> Any rivals during his early years?
- [2011-11-20 20:10:14] <BUTTZ> What did he think of the Maoist reforms?
- [2011-11-20 20:10:19] <BUTTZ> He lived through all that shit
- [2011-11-20 20:10:32] <ManOfTroy> Oh, yeah! That would be nice to know.
- [2011-11-20 20:10:44] <ManOfTroy> And has anyone asked if he knows Jackie Chan?
- [2011-11-20 20:10:49] <Ironybot> What controls how much chakra energy is available, comparing two people with similarly heavy/sized souls?
- [2011-11-20 20:10:55] <cornelius> We should have
- [2011-11-20 20:11:19] <TheBeardiestBob> Lo Fang has a Dragon tattooed from left ankle up leg around body down right arm, one long uninterrupted coiling loop. It is a magic tattoo of his own design, reverse engineering both charm types he learned to find a way to 'charm' living flesh.
- [2011-11-20 20:11:59] <ManOfTroy> Oh, cool! but not actually embarrasing.
- [2011-11-20 20:12:16] <Arkeus> Probably VERY sueful
- [2011-11-20 20:12:17] <TheBeardiestBob> It's pink because he f'ed it up a bit
- [2011-11-20 20:12:21] <Arkeus> lol
- [2011-11-20 20:12:24] <Arkeus> useful
- [2011-11-20 20:12:26] <cornelius> Think Troy was looking for some sort of tramp stamp type deal
- [2011-11-20 20:12:33] <ManOfTroy> Haha, -that-s awesome.
- [2011-11-20 20:12:34] <Ironybot> No one scoffs at the Pink Dragon!
- [2011-11-20 20:12:36] <ManOfTroy> That or teddy bears.
- [2011-11-20 20:12:41] <ManOfTroy> but Pink Dragons? Awesome
- [2011-11-20 20:12:44] <cornelius> Oh god, the pink dragon
- [2011-11-20 20:12:53] <TheBeardiestBob> He indulged in a MASSIVE amount of corpse dissection and general macabre investigation, as he slowly built a preference for a style to maximize his energy with single, penetrating strikes, and is immensely knowledgeable on monster anatomy.
- [2011-11-20 20:12:56] <cornelius> That's such a good nickname if Armas ever finds out
- [2011-11-20 20:12:57] <Arkeus> TheBeardiestBob: How do Dragons view Dragon Tatoo, btw? 'FREE BELIEF'?
- [2011-11-20 20:13:10] <cornelius> Sadly he never say it to his face
- [2011-11-20 20:13:13] <cornelius> But mentally
- [2011-11-20 20:13:17] <TheBeardiestBob> For actual forbidden arts, all three of the Practitioner styles, and twenty one of the Chakra based (and two of the mundane) are all 'forbidden'
- [2011-11-20 20:13:32] <Arkeus> heh
- [2011-11-20 20:13:40] <Arkeus> the Practicionner styles- soul heavy?
- [2011-11-20 20:13:51] <Ironybot> Forbidden to whom, and by what standard? I mean, obviously someone learns them or they wouldn't be around for him to have learned at all.
- [2011-11-20 20:13:52] <ManOfTroy> gosh, Lo's awesome
- [2011-11-20 20:14:33] <TheBeardiestBob> Chakra regulation is based on the soul's shape, as it fits to the bodies chakra outlets. So it's a 'you get it at birth, find a soul manipulation master if you want a do over' thing.
- [2011-11-20 20:14:58] <TheBeardiestBob> The Maoist reforms were ultimately got Lo Fang to hook up with the Triads
- [2011-11-20 20:15:23] <ManOfTroy> Is Lo a righty or a lefty? And...mhm, that's pretty good for us, if horrible for the Maoists.
- [2011-11-20 20:15:32] <ManOfTroy> How does he feel about the recent opening up of China?
- [2011-11-20 20:15:34] <Arkeus> TheBeardiestBob: that's... very interesting, about the soul manipulation bit
- [2011-11-20 20:16:44] <TheBeardiestBob> Forbidden in that the practitioner styles are 'you get executed if you know even part of this and the dragons didn't give you the go ahead' and the rest varying levels of shit, ranging from painful mindwipe, exile, execution.
- [2011-11-20 20:17:01] <BUTTZ> The Maoists did some crazy shit, from demanding little forges in every home to killing all the fucking sparrows
- [2011-11-20 20:18:12] <Ironybot> All right, then I have to ask- who did he convince to teach him those things, and how?
- [2011-11-20 20:18:27] <Arkeus> Probably tortured the fuck out of them
- [2011-11-20 20:18:45] <Ironybot> And for that matter, where did he get a massive amount of corpses to cut on?
- [2011-11-20 20:18:46] <ManOfTroy> Yeah, Maoists were...very crazy, and oddly like the first Emperor of China.
- [2011-11-20 20:19:28] <TheBeardiestBob> He spent three years internalizing the theory of three seperate chakra based mind manipulation tricks, never once seeking help, or in fact even checking out books-all from observation and mental practice
- [2011-11-20 20:19:47] <TheBeardiestBob> then he struck and converted a couple students with permission to access certain records as librarians of sorts
- [2011-11-20 20:20:11] <TheBeardiestBob> and then had them be caught attempting to steal a far less important book, and resist capture
- [2011-11-20 20:20:33] <Arkeus> ... Yeah, we must make sure Go Ping Doesn't stay with that guy
- [2011-11-20 20:20:42] <ManOfTroy> Why not?
- [2011-11-20 20:20:46] <Ironybot> Why not? He could learn a lot from him.
- [2011-11-20 20:20:46] <TheBeardiestBob> they get killed, it's not so strange people look closely, and when they find that the Practitioner scrolls have been replaced with blanks a half year later...
- [2011-11-20 20:20:52] <TheBeardiestBob> well, trails pretty cold.
- [2011-11-20 20:21:14] <Arkeus> Ironybot: i mean, longer term
- [2011-11-20 20:21:34] <Arkeus> Lo Fang's not a safe mster at all
- [2011-11-20 20:21:45] <Ironybot> Longer term, hanging with Lo Fang will probably get him killed- but do you really think that we and our friends have any longer of a life expectancy?
- [2011-11-20 20:21:50] <Arkeus> TheBeardiestBob: Let me guess, he uses those techniques to help 'Morale' more recently?
- [2011-11-20 20:21:58] <TheBeardiestBob> HAyup
- [2011-11-20 20:21:59] <ManOfTroy> Yeah, that's what I was thinking
- [2011-11-20 20:21:59] <Arkeus> hence who his men don't route?
- [2011-11-20 20:22:20] <Arkeus> Ironybot: Armas i loyal to his subordinate/friends.
- [2011-11-20 20:22:23] <Arkeus> Or i want him to be
- [2011-11-20 20:22:26] <TheBeardiestBob> So there, that's most of what Lo Fang did/learned before the age of twenty five
- [2011-11-20 20:22:31] <TheBeardiestBob> more than fifty years ago
- [2011-11-20 20:22:37] <Arkeus> :-(
- [2011-11-20 20:22:38] <ManOfTroy> Armas is Loyal?
- [2011-11-20 20:22:39] <Arkeus> What a fucker
- [2011-11-20 20:22:42] <ManOfTroy> WHen the hell did that happen?
- [2011-11-20 20:22:47] <A_Hungry_Shark> !!
- [2011-11-20 20:22:47] <Classhole> !?
- [2011-11-20 20:22:51] <A_Hungry_Shark> We're back in Istanbul!
- [2011-11-20 20:22:55] <ManOfTroy> Fuuuck, Lo's badass.
- [2011-11-20 20:22:57] <ManOfTroy> Yes! We are!
- [2011-11-20 20:22:58] <A_Hungry_Shark> We must meet the Kitty-Burglar
- [2011-11-20 20:23:03] <Arkeus> Yes, bob
- [2011-11-20 20:23:11] <Arkeus> did Camella tell us anything about kitty burglar?
- [2011-11-20 20:23:20] <A_Hungry_Shark> >Kitty burglar meets Sake
- [2011-11-20 20:23:20] <TheBeardiestBob> No, but it's at the gym right now
- [2011-11-20 20:23:25] <A_Hungry_Shark> Trollanimals, alldayerryday
- [2011-11-20 20:23:29] <Arkeus> TheBeardiestBob: awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
- [2011-11-20 20:23:37] <A_Hungry_Shark> It's here?! Oh boy
- [2011-11-20 20:23:49] <TheBeardiestBob> You gonna get POUNCED because it's become a bit possessive of Camella
- [2011-11-20 20:23:53] <TheBeardiestBob> thinks she's his.
- [2011-11-20 20:23:54] <Ironybot> If it's at the gym.... have we not sensed its soul? Or is it hanging out somewhere else, not watching us?
- [2011-11-20 20:23:57] <A_Hungry_Shark> D'aaaaaaaw
- [2011-11-20 20:23:57] <TheBeardiestBob> so back off.
- [2011-11-20 20:24:04] <A_Hungry_Shark> Look at the psychotic little kitty
- [2011-11-20 20:24:11] <A_Hungry_Shark> Bah, how much stronger can it be?
- [2011-11-20 20:24:12] <TheBeardiestBob> It's still soul-less.
- [2011-11-20 20:24:15] <A_Hungry_Shark> We'll just whip it ba-
- [2011-11-20 20:24:16] <TheBeardiestBob> It's a very veteran cat
- [2011-11-20 20:24:16] <A_Hungry_Shark> Oh.
- [2011-11-20 20:24:25] <Arkeus> O, going to sleep.
- [2011-11-20 20:24:27] <TheBeardiestBob> but no soul yet.
- [2011-11-20 20:24:30] <Ironybot> No soul? How sad.
- [2011-11-20 20:24:36] <Arkeus> Hopefully people post fanart,s logical way to do stuff, the works
- [2011-11-20 20:24:50] <BUTTZ> If it hangs around with us it will be dead or sapient inside a year
- [2011-11-20 20:24:58] <Ironybot> Or both.
- [2011-11-20 20:25:02] <A_Hungry_Shark> Well, you know what they say: "You don't own a cat. A cat owns you."
- [2011-11-20 20:25:03] <Arkeus> Also, i'd like if someone did that "Oh, maybe Drunken MArtial-Style are made to counter soul-sense advantages"
- [2011-11-20 20:25:09] <ManOfTroy> GGreebo?
- [2011-11-20 20:25:27] <A_Hungry_Shark> So, is it mind-melting cute?
- [2011-11-20 20:25:41] <Guile> or is it an ugly as sin alleycat?
- [2011-11-20 20:25:47] <Ironybot> Ah, Bob, also wanted to ask- did Camella actually promise not to tell others our story, offscreen? Because I can't see Armas accepting the kind of non-promise from her that we saw explicitly written out.
- [2011-11-20 20:25:50] <Guile> or is it startlingly ordinary?
- [2011-11-20 20:25:52] <TheBeardiestBob> It knows that humans are weak to this concept of 'cute' and knows it can produce such an effect.
- [2011-11-20 20:25:54] <A_Hungry_Shark> Hey, Alleycats have a certain beauty to them too!
- [2011-11-20 20:26:00] <TheBeardiestBob> So it milks it, as any cat with that understand does.
- [2011-11-20 20:26:01] <Arkeus> lol bob
- [2011-11-20 20:26:13] <Ironybot> Her line was exactly the sort of weaselry that we'd use to avoid explicitly swearing something.
- [2011-11-20 20:26:17] <A_Hungry_Shark> How strong is it? How psychotic?
- [2011-11-20 20:26:36] <Guile> it's not exactly going to murder us in our sleep, Shark
- [2011-11-20 20:26:43] <A_Hungry_Shark> Because I'm thinking of Hugging Camella...RIGHT AFTER THE SPAR
- [2011-11-20 20:26:44] <Guile> ... I mean, it xcould try, I guess
- [2011-11-20 20:26:46] <A_Hungry_Shark> To piss it off
- [2011-11-20 20:27:03] <A_Hungry_Shark> 'As in: She's mine you punk'
- [2011-11-20 20:27:18] <cornelius> I feel bad for Camella
- [2011-11-20 20:27:37] <Guile> we'll armwrestle BanditKitty for her
- [2011-11-20 20:27:41] <A_Hungry_Shark> And then kitty goes 'RGARGBLARGLE git ur manpaws off her'
- [2011-11-20 20:27:45] <cornelius> Demons and monsters constantly calling her out on smelling like us
- [2011-11-20 20:27:48] <cornelius> And cats
- [2011-11-20 20:27:49] <Guile> drinking contest?
- [2011-11-20 20:27:49] <Ironybot> Cunning plan: Write up "grope Camella as a distraction" for suggestion. Roll 100.
- [2011-11-20 20:27:52] <ManOfTroy> Hey, bob, Speaking of 'Cute' is there a way to use Cute to actual kill people?
- [2011-11-20 20:27:54] <cornelius> Well you know why they rub on people?
- [2011-11-20 20:27:59] <cornelius> To spread their scent on them
- [2011-11-20 20:28:00] <A_Hungry_Shark> Yes we know
- [2011-11-20 20:28:10] <ManOfTroy> Oh good, Irony bot. What did you roll?
- [2011-11-20 20:28:12] <cornelius> Scent everywhere
- [2011-11-20 20:28:20] <A_Hungry_Shark> Neuter dat kitty
- [2011-11-20 20:28:23] <A_Hungry_Shark> Fuck off.
- [2011-11-20 20:28:44] <Guile> Cunning plan: use stealth and sleight of hand to remove bra without taking off her shirt
- [2011-11-20 20:28:59] <Ironybot> We can have Shadowbro do that for us later.
- [2011-11-20 20:29:09] <Ironybot> From across the room.
- [2011-11-20 20:29:16] <A_Hungry_Shark> If we actually pull that off, it's going to our "Greatest Life Achievements" list, Guile
- [2011-11-20 20:29:18] <Guile> excellent
- [2011-11-20 20:29:37] <ManOfTroy> Cunning Plan, have shadowbro turn her underwear into bikini. Have Sake remove clothing.
- [2011-11-20 20:29:38] <ManOfTroy> 'What, i'm not a wizard.'
- [2011-11-20 20:29:41] <ManOfTroy> >Trollface
- [2011-11-20 20:29:41] <Guile> Her soul is watching us as we steal her underwear
- [2011-11-20 20:29:48] <A_Hungry_Shark> Fuckdat
- [2011-11-20 20:29:52] <A_Hungry_Shark> Her soul can't do shit
- [2011-11-20 20:29:57] <A_Hungry_Shark> Just watch.
- [2011-11-20 20:30:02] <A_Hungry_Shark> Watch helplessly
- [2011-11-20 20:30:07] <Arkeus> Drool?
- [2011-11-20 20:30:08] <Guile> Her soul can alert Camella. Camella can do many things.
- [2011-11-20 20:30:29] <A_Hungry_Shark> Camella in a bikini or topless is worth dieing at least once
- [2011-11-20 20:30:38] <BUTTZ> God you guys are horrible
- [2011-11-20 20:30:58] <A_Hungry_Shark> multipleliveslol
- [2011-11-20 20:30:58] <ManOfTroy> No, what is priceless is seeing her in a bikini and making her -convinced- we're a wizard and lying about it
- [2011-11-20 20:31:20] <Ironybot> She accused us of lying to her before. I was vaguely offended.
- [2011-11-20 20:31:41] <A_Hungry_Shark> And she thinks Sake is our "exotic pet"
- [2011-11-20 20:32:29] <A_Hungry_Shark> Holy carp a 72
- [2011-11-20 20:32:59] <Guile> so all our rolls are 50+. STOP NOW.
- [2011-11-20 20:33:05] <A_Hungry_Shark> Nah
- [2011-11-20 20:33:07] <A_Hungry_Shark> 1 more roll.
- [2011-11-20 20:33:10] <A_Hungry_Shark> Rule of 3 yo
- [2011-11-20 20:33:30] <Ironybot> You really think an average of 64.5 will be enough to stop Camella?
- [2011-11-20 20:33:45] <A_Hungry_Shark> No, but it will delay our inevitable ass-whooping
- [2011-11-20 20:33:54] <A_Hungry_Shark> And every second counts, dammit
- [2011-11-20 20:33:57] <Guile> Nnnnope. But then, I doubt there's ANY way to stop the Pint-size Determinator
- [2011-11-20 20:34:16] <Guile> And its not like martial arts is our best skill anymore
- [2011-11-20 20:34:22] <Guile> let her rub it in our face
- [2011-11-20 20:34:26] <Ironybot> Anymore? When was it ever our best skill?
- [2011-11-20 20:34:37] <Guile> well, considering how shitty our shooting skill is...
- [2011-11-20 20:34:51] <A_Hungry_Shark> yip yip.
- [2011-11-20 20:34:57] <Ironybot> Our best skill has been our ability to make friends and influence people since pretty darn early in thread one.
- [2011-11-20 20:35:06] <Guile> fair enough
- [2011-11-20 20:35:11] <A_Hungry_Shark> I think he's talking about 'COMBAT skills', Irony
- [2011-11-20 20:35:22] <Ironybot> Making friends and influencing people IS a combat skill.
- [2011-11-20 20:35:32] <Ironybot> See, we used it to kick Blackbeard's ass just this morning.
- [2011-11-20 20:35:45] <InsufferableMystic> and reapers
- [2011-11-20 20:36:11] <Ironybot> Note: I did not actually intend "making friends" to be a pun re: Shadowbro, but in retrospect that's awesome.
- [2011-11-20 20:36:12] <A_Hungry_Shark> I wonder how many charms he takes on every mission
- [2011-11-20 20:36:16] <A_Hungry_Shark> And how much they weigh in total
- [2011-11-20 20:36:34] <Guile> we did 'make' our best friend
- [2011-11-20 20:36:40] <Guile> good one
- [2011-11-20 20:36:47] <A_Hungry_Shark> yip yip
- [2011-11-20 20:36:53] <ManOfTroy> 'Pint-Sized'?
- [2011-11-20 20:36:58] <ManOfTroy> The hell are you on, boy
- [2011-11-20 20:37:57] <A_Hungry_Shark> Ah, can't wait to get BB's BILLIONS of Dollars, and BILLIONS of Charms
- [2011-11-20 20:38:13] <A_Hungry_Shark> We could get the Wrong Laine going in no time
- [2011-11-20 20:38:58] <TheBeardiestBob> http://www.collegehumor.com/video/6429045/suspending-water-without-a-cup-trick
- [2011-11-20 20:39:50] <Guile> we're like 6'5". She's pint-sized to us
- [2011-11-20 20:42:46] <Ironybot> That video seems like a cunningly designed troll aimed at getting other people to repeatedly splash water all over their tables and squander tons of time.
- [2011-11-20 20:43:10] <TheBeardiestBob> That is my impression
- [2011-11-20 20:43:16] <TheBeardiestBob> a very well done one too I'd say.
- [2011-11-20 20:45:13] <Ironybot> Bob, since I think this got missed earlier: Did Camella actually ever explicitly promise not to share the story we told her? In the update texts thus far she did not.
- [2011-11-20 20:46:03] |<-- A_Hungry_Shark has left irc.rizon.net (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
- [2011-11-20 20:46:43] <TheBeardiestBob> No, she hasn't, and probably wouldn't make the promise. She would agree to not tell anyone without telling you first though.
- [2011-11-20 20:47:47] <Arkeus> Right, sleep. What a silly idea Y_Y
- [2011-11-20 20:48:08] <Ironybot> That is... somewhat disappointing, seeing as telling her things was intended to be contingent upon her actually promising to keep quiet about it and I would have expected Armas to be immediately deal-savvy enough to pick up on the fact that she did not.
- [2011-11-20 20:48:36] <Ironybot> Her line "I'll make any promise I have to if it means you'll give straight answers." was not actually followed by a promise of any kind, and we should have gotten one before spilling.
- [2011-11-20 20:49:16] <cornelius> The give and take with Camella isn't really optimal
- [2011-11-20 20:49:57] <Guile> if we step out of line hard enough, I'd guess she'd take us down rather than tell people
- [2011-11-20 20:50:19] <Guile> in which case the promise or lack thereof becomes moot
- [2011-11-20 20:51:59] <Arkeus> We must be careful around Lo Fang
- [2011-11-20 20:52:04] <Arkeus> Mind tricks and all that
- [2011-11-20 20:52:20] <Arkeus> Dammit, i had a fun question when i was drowsy....
- [2011-11-20 20:52:49] <Ironybot> Camella coming after us individually is something I would rather deal with than her telling our secrets to others.
- [2011-11-20 20:54:21] <Guile> you know, mortals can do this funny thing called 'lying', even about promises
- [2011-11-20 20:54:40] <Guile> either we trust her, or we dont - a promise isnt really worth much
- [2011-11-20 20:56:07] <ManOfTroy> WAIT WAIT WIAT, WHAT? MORTALS CAN LIE? NO, BUT...THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!
- [2011-11-20 20:56:28] <Ironybot> It is to Armas. You think he would retain much respect for or desire to associate with someone who he knows has broken their word to him, when he guards the value of his own so carefully?
- [2011-11-20 20:56:53] <ManOfTroy> Yes.
- [2011-11-20 20:57:24] <Guile> If it means we get the Determinator as backup, quite possibly
- [2011-11-20 20:57:49] <Ironybot> Besides, mortals can indeed lie- but if nothing else, even a totally unenforced promise leaves him able to honestly smear someone's name as an oathbreaker to various supernatural beasties who value scrupulous honesty in dealings highly.
- [2011-11-20 20:57:54] <ManOfTroy> Because if we believe people would value their word as we do, we would bring a lawyer with us everywhere. 'Ah, you see, when I said 'tell', including in subection three, paragraph four, that includes sky writing, text messages, and note passing.
- [2011-11-20 20:58:06] <cornelius> Personally I'm waiting for her to prove her worth, and by worth I don't mean ability I mean value to us.
- [2011-11-20 20:58:19] <cornelius> Our side of this relationship has been a lot of give
- [2011-11-20 20:58:21] <cornelius> Not so much take
- [2011-11-20 20:59:53] <Guile> she did kill that woman who shot us in the head - presumably the 'take' will come now that we more or less have her trust

- [2011-11-20 21:00:15] <cornelius> Honestly didn't like the move she pulled implicating us in some deal with the Triads where they could potentially have claimed a portion of a bounty without directly offering aid to us
- [2011-11-20 21:00:41] <cornelius> You don't just make someone beholden to a deal you initiated without discussing it with them first
- [2011-11-20 21:00:51] <Ironybot> That was exceedingly rude of her, yes.
- [2011-11-20 21:01:12] <Ironybot> However, as she does not have the authority to speak for us, it remains to be seen if we will accept her attempt to force a debt on us.
- [2011-11-20 21:01:26] <ManOfTroy> Like we whouldn't have done the same thing if we needed to
- [2011-11-20 21:01:28] <A_Mad_Oyster> Huh? What did I miss?
- [2011-11-20 21:01:30] <Guile> what was it, 5 million to Go Ping?
- [2011-11-20 21:01:32] <cornelius> We wouldn't have
- [2011-11-20 21:01:41] <Guile> we never have
- [2011-11-20 21:01:44] <Ironybot> Yes, five million to Go Ping.
- [2011-11-20 21:01:58] <A_Mad_Oyster> Fuck dat. OUR money.
- [2011-11-20 21:02:09] <cornelius> And Camella did save our life once
- [2011-11-20 21:02:21] <cornelius> But by my count we've saved her own multiple times
- [2011-11-20 21:02:33] <A_Mad_Oyster> We saved her FUTURE.
- [2011-11-20 21:02:39] <cornelius> Not that that it should matter
- [2011-11-20 21:02:41] <Guile> ...?
- [2011-11-20 21:02:50] <A_Mad_Oyster> Everything's she's done til now, she owes it to US
- [2011-11-20 21:02:57] <cornelius> Shut it Mad
- [2011-11-20 21:02:58] <Arkeus> Stop is mad
- [2011-11-20 21:03:01] <Arkeus> it
- [2011-11-20 21:03:03] <Ironybot> Personally I am inclined to say "Sure, Camella, I will cover your $5,000,000 debt even though I'm under no obligation to do so at all. You now owe me five million bucks." They say debt ruins friendships, but hey, five million is five million.
- [2011-11-20 21:03:06] <ManOfTroy> Quit it, Mad
- [2011-11-20 21:03:12] <A_Mad_Oyster> Godammit you guys
- [2011-11-20 21:03:15] <cornelius> You're making a perfectly decent argument sound stupid
- [2011-11-20 21:04:53] <Guile> I mean, we nursed her back to health a bit, but its not like somebody was going to murder her in the street
- [2011-11-20 21:05:13] <cornelius> Prevented her from making a terrible mistake that would have ended with her in some magical Italian prison
- [2011-11-20 21:05:20] <Guile> also, we barely refrained from shooting her ourselves
- [2011-11-20 21:05:41] <cornelius> Or an insane asylum
- [2011-11-20 21:05:43] <Guile> or in the magical version of Il Nono, maybe - governments can recognize talent
- [2011-11-20 21:05:52] <Ironybot> I doubt it would have ended with her in a magical Italian prison- there are a myriad of groups which would have been more than happy to pick up their very own totally unrecorded elite operative.
- [2011-11-20 21:06:28] <InsufferableMystic> also treat the woman who can kill us but is currently friend well
- [2011-11-20 21:06:31] <cornelius> After they heard her story? As far as I know dimensional sliders aren't exactly viewed as a good thing.

- [2011-11-20 21:07:02] <InsufferableMystic> We want her as ally
- [2011-11-20 21:07:21] <InsufferableMystic> PC allies are a boon
- [2011-11-20 21:07:33] <cornelius> Not if you don't get anything out of the equation
- [2011-11-20 21:07:37] <cornelius> Which is my point
- [2011-11-20 21:07:57] <cornelius> A relationship requires a certain amount of respect and giving from both parties
- [2011-11-20 21:08:31] <Ironybot> We might want her as a friend- but by demanding that if we get the bounty on Blackbeard we distribute five million of it at her whim, she's basically placed a five million dollar price tag on retaining her friendship. That's a damned high-maintenance ally.
- [2011-11-20 21:09:09] <InsufferableMystic> When has she?
- [2011-11-20 21:09:15] <Guile> We probably would have spread that money around amongst our allies that assisted us anyway, but it is pretty annoying that she unilaterally decided that
- [2011-11-20 21:09:36] <InsufferableMystic> Also, she got on bb first and lost a leg
- [2011-11-20 21:09:47] <cornelius> So?
- [2011-11-20 21:09:49] <Ironybot> What does that have to do with anything?
- [2011-11-20 21:09:56] <Guile> but then, what could she do? Go Ping's a friend, kinda but he's not the kind to help for free - he agreed to help on the condition of being paid
- [2011-11-20 21:10:31] <InsufferableMystic> Also our falut bb tried to kill her
- [2011-11-20 21:10:38] <Guile> nnnnnno?
- [2011-11-20 21:10:44] <Ironybot> That's just preposterous.
- [2011-11-20 21:10:53] <Guile> BB's an asshole. We're not responsible for him.
- [2011-11-20 21:11:01] <Arkeus> He gives it-I dial it-the Merchant answers-
- [2011-11-20 21:11:02] <Arkeus> And the voice comes from my pants.
- [2011-11-20 21:11:02] <Arkeus> He throws his voice through a phone. <= so damn awesome
- [2011-11-20 21:11:15] <Ironybot> If nothing else, it was entirely her decision to borrow our car.

- [2011-11-20 21:12:31] <InsufferableMystic> Magic loot is better than money
- [2011-11-20 21:13:16] <ManOfTroy> Didn't Camella butcher a sniper that had a bead on us when we were dealing with Crazy?
- [2011-11-20 21:13:21] <Ironybot> People, allies, magic loot, and money are all ultimately things with variable worth, which must be tracked and balanced against one another.

- [2011-11-20 21:13:39] <ManOfTroy> Didn't she start a fight with BB that we were going to start, actual setting it up so we choudl take him out?
- [2011-11-20 21:13:40] <cornelius> I'm thinking about a breach of respect
- [2011-11-20 21:13:53] <cornelius> A rather expensive one
- [2011-11-20 21:14:00] <ManOfTroy> Seriously, why worry about millions of dollars that, honestly, we can make up because we're intenting on being immortal.

- [2011-11-20 21:14:25] <Arkeus> Especially as it's noONLY money if WE manage to kill him
- [2011-11-20 21:14:31] <InsufferableMystic> Think bigger than millions
- [2011-11-20 21:14:38] <ManOfTroy> How is going 'My friend, who owns a vampires money, will spot you'.
- [2011-11-20 21:14:40] <Arkeus> Basically, she is probably assuming BB is hers anyway
- [2011-11-20 21:14:44] <InsufferableMystic> Think bigger than cash
- [2011-11-20 21:14:56] <ManOfTroy> I wish people would
- [2011-11-20 21:14:57] <BUTTZ> Five million to have her running around again and willing to help us is worth it
- [2011-11-20 21:15:08] <Ironybot> Indeed, it is only if we manage to kill him. Which is why we're not bringing this up to her immediately- it's an issue which might well be irrelevant and thus not worth fighting over.
- [2011-11-20 21:15:09] <cornelius> Could you stop with the pithy speeches? I'm not saying we cut off ties
- [2011-11-20 21:15:13] <BUTTZ> We just offered her partnership in the merc company
- [2011-11-20 21:15:14] <Guile> which I'm honestly okay with her fighting BB. If any PC villain is likely to carbomb us, its Blackbeard
- [2011-11-20 21:15:24] <InsufferableMystic> Loyality has no price
- [2011-11-20 21:15:46] <cornelius> Everything has a price
- [2011-11-20 21:16:00] <InsufferableMystic> not a cash price
- [2011-11-20 21:16:04] <Guile> Well, unless we could buy a robot or something as cool as Camella for that price
- [2011-11-20 21:16:06] <BUTTZ> Hey Bob did we tell her what we learned about the Wyld Hunt?
- [2011-11-20 21:16:15] <BUTTZ> The Erlking and all that jazz?
- [2011-11-20 21:16:23] <Guile> we dont actually know that much. Mongolia's a pretty big place
- [2011-11-20 21:19:30] <BUTTZ> Next time we see Einrik we should ask him about it
- [2011-11-20 21:19:36] <BUTTZ> Before we introduce him to Camella
- [2011-11-20 21:35:54] <A_Mad_Oyster> what was the name of that alchemist
- [2011-11-20 21:35:59] <A_Mad_Oyster> who discovered immortality or shit
- [2011-11-20 21:36:16] <A_Mad_Oyster> I think it was Nicholas something
- [2011-11-20 21:37:24] <Ironybot> Comte de St. Germain, I believe.
- [2011-11-20 21:39:21] <Ironybot> Wikipedia has a page on this full of information.
- [2011-11-20 21:39:48] <BUTTZ> oooh dear, I believe I drank too much coffee
- [2011-11-20 21:40:06] <A_Mad_Oyster> That's a good thing Buttz
- [2011-11-20 21:40:13] <ManOfTroy> Why are we talking about the First and Last man?
- [2011-11-20 21:40:32] <ManOfTroy> No, no, Man is talking abotu Flame.
- [2011-11-20 21:40:37] <ManOfTroy> Not the Count.
- [2011-11-20 21:42:16] <ManOfTroy> Anyway, I'm going to bed now

- [2011-11-20 23:41:48] <TheBeardiestBob> Armas should hire him as his IT guy

- [2011-11-20 23:55:15] <Ironybot> After reading that article, I conclude that were Armas to hire Timothy Lloyd as his IT guy, we would end up gaining several levels of either Paranoia or Rationalization, depending upon what gains experience when we go into a speculative doom-spiral suspecting employee betrayal and way too much of it is true.
- [2011-11-20 23:56:35] <TheBeardiestBob> I am just fascinated by the fact he prepared to fuck them over for his firing well before he got fired
- [2011-11-20 23:56:53] <TheBeardiestBob> That takes a very special kind of person to do.

- [2011-11-20 23:58:57] <TheBeardiestBob> I have catching up to do.
- [2011-11-20 23:59:51] <Ironybot> Also, the Coral Castle from the bizarre houses link- look at the story of its construction; how Guns for Hire.
