Your head hurts. There are many truths in the universe, and the truth of this one is that your head hurts (wake up), that you are tired and sleepy and would prefer to keep dozing fitfully (wake up) that things are okay, you are somwhat comfortable, and the rustling of distant wind through high willows soothingly runs through your mind (wake up)...

Is anyone else as sleepy as you? You can the soft sound of their constant snoring, the huff puff fuff, feel the warmth of many bodies, the quiet rustle of moving limbs and mewls and moans and nightmare whispers and dream fancies and why are you so tired anyway you should wake up? wake up? WAKE U--

No no.

Listen, you've been through a lot.

Keep dreaming.

Sometimes being something different than you are is hard. Convuluted. Convulsive. Here is a rough spun guide that offers some more specific advice, though it should be honestly also said that you can only rely on it 66% of the time, and it is a series of guidelines and not a dire book of grand law.

Please treat it as such. Things might not work one hundred percent as it says here, because sometimes, the universe has secrets.

but in dreams, you can explore, fitfully dreaming, lovingly protected by the warm fur of friends, forever, exploring, experiencing, believing, thinking, ah, and you need never wake up, you need never be different, you can just keep sleeping so why would you ever

wake

up?

In a dream, you know, you can change yourself to anything you wish to be. Become anything. Anyone. Go anywhere.

Harder in waking life. Much better to sleep, perchance to dream, because why take up arms against the tides of sorrows that life brings? Guns? Flame? Fire? Teeth, fang, fury, claw? Poorly maintained mass cargo transit systems and janitorial budget cuts?

Why wake up?

Why would you ever wake up?

why not simply dream, forever, and fade away? you can use some R&R. and maybe you can walk the meandering, labyrinthine hallways of your dreamscape, struggling to reach the end of twisted corridors, never making quite as much progress as you think or hope or fear, unheeding, unreaching, stumbling, watched by figures in the high dark, chased by stern shadow, sprint down narrowing corridors, as for minutes and hours and days someone whispers to you and soothes you and pours water down your cracked lips and feeds you beans with the taste of home and you are so loved and cared for in this embrace and the halls go on forever, the choir hunting you every step like a mass of fireflies that will burn your pleasant somnolence from your skull and doesn't that just sound nice

would you kindly wake up, subject

>>6082961
It would mean that the character sheets and skill as of T2R28 would be the ones we utilize and rely on, which, dreambound slumbering wakefulness coming raidly closer with the snap of stern jaws and hungry bursts of wakeful hormonal circadian clock adjusters, does indeed mean that anything done inside any elevators is perhaps best treated as ...

a nightmare

no sorry surely Command meant to say nightmare? nightmare? D R E A--nightmare.

>>6082893
For any NEW SUBJECTS please be aware of FOUL DREAM LOGIC: Your character sheet, pre-written, says Sense 8, but the sheet, accounting for earlier advances, says Sense 9. The correct number is 9. You have Senses 9, and the sharper sleep-encrusted eyes of friends.

There is a skirmishy discord, if one wishes to talk tactics? I hear they're nice there, though, CompanyCommand is a cruel and callous creature, not a companion, and so, naturally, seeks only your immediate, unerring nightmareish demise.

Were you ever in an elevator? What is an elevator, anyway, but a bad replacement of stairs? Curious and curiouser, such strange thoughts, to flit through what wonderful and intriguing magic that passes for how one such as you thinks thoughts such as this.

It would be far safer for your health to refer to the character sheet at T2R28, and forget mankind ever invented elevators. Let alone escalators.

Shockingly, you feel . . . refreshed. A slow wake from gradual slumber, a turning of the wires, a thrum in your head, the gradual re-contextualization of things your internal tags with meaning, colour, scent, taste, sound, the prickley burnt sensation across your outer dermis of burn damage safe to ignore and the slow catch in your reactions from internal wrackings of more delicate subsystems. You flex your fingers.

You realize - immediately - as eight pain editing software systems and nooceptic control feedback overrides and emergency shock hardening trauma impulse routines flare to life - that you need to stop trying to flex your fingers.

THIS IS MY RIFLE
THIS IS MY GUN

Somehow you don't have either - and that's just no fun. A single clip of little tungstun reinforced sleek superdense core penetrators rests, in your tattered half uniform clothes. But of the thing that fires them? You have no awareness. Of batons? Of knives? Of clothscraps? Of experimental test serums? Of pistols? Of pistol bullets? No no no no no no no

.... but you have 3x Can O' Bean, so it ain't all bad.

Your mouth feels like you've spent a straight week licking the a beach though.

Ah, the beach. You remember that - it's clear - it could never fade. The beach? At the end of the beach, the ocean and the slow rolling waves and peace and horizons infinite. No dreams of confining corridors for a man such as you.

you need to go back to sleep

NOW

being awake, franchise management specialist Sundae, means being aware and being aware means knowing and knowing means you have to *feel all of this*

you should save yourself
you should
NOT
WAKE
UP

Because when you are DREAMING? all this ??? it hurts not at all

but if you pry those eyelids open-- there, the waking world, in all its cruelty, and your *smeared meat* within it.

perhaps cradling that gun in your off-hand can give you strength. the baton. the cloth scraps, wrapped around you, each and all, in some desperate attempt at keeping you together.

>>6082971
you feel disjointed. dysregular. slow. and you are aware now: other things are aware of *you*. you have spent an eon, age unnumbered, uncountable pathogenic adaption cycles, bacteria humming, virals spliting, other stranger things brewing in the dark and the small places, and you are looking down the length of an evolutionary arms race of sign and counter-sign and *you are losing*

>>6082973
What cruel being, let alone a studious machine intelligence, would deny an entity snacks?

If such onerous demands were ever placed on anyone, the only righteous path of all just-thinking mortal and immortal minds would be to burn down heaven itself in a storm of such violence the stars would be cut down and the void they leave behind filled by the dead.

you can have your snacks.
you can have as many snacks as you *can find* and *stuff in your mouth* and if anyone tries to stop you, *eat them*--

Wilder sees it first, near the edge as he is, and befitting enough of the name perhaps a wild one at heart. Beyond the acid pitted and corroded metal confines of the elevator shell that has become some sort of sickhouse or outre bean storage system, undulating tendrils of enormous flesh-shaped trunks swirl in an unseen wind. Wilder leans. Wilder looks. Wilder learns.

They're below the elevator too.

Perhaps you've been losing the microevolutionary arms race because this forest of fleshwood or woodflesh has provided a myriad of genealogical sampling opportunities for cunning counter-measures to your art. You try to reach out and warp them - influence them - perhaps even direct the sprawling circulatory twig-trunks that wind, faintly pulsating, beneath the elevator and it BURNS, stinging, a hundred new microbiomes reacting with hostility to your intrusion.

In pathogenic ages unnumbered, a million million million and more life-cycles of microbes ago, perhaps, these things were almost related to you. Spun out and touched by a panicked fuelled command down a rapidly descending elevator shaft.

But no more.
No soveriegn you, sir Bob, of this forest or the things that live here.

It seems by passing such endless time absent from your throne, the whole edifice of monarchy has been thrown out.

You should not expect this environment to react to you with servility, despite you being perhaps, in some distant sense, its progenitor.

You nano-second accurate internal HUD systems are used to integrate total informational space dominance across a broad spectrum of conditions and to interface with time-sensitive systems across the whole alarm criticality chain.

It's also in need for repair.

Well it's been at least less than a week - your internal calendar hasn't rolled over to a new month yet, though your TODO is actually just filled with DON'TDIE and WAKEUPWAKEUPWAKEUP and all the day markers are corrupted out.

Right there under the pillow! Hey did you know you can actually use a biometric card like this, with a sharp edge, to cut Everetts ear off?

Wow listening to the voices was a brilliant idea.

Though it vaguely sounds like most of them are singing in steppe people click-tongue and one of them is offering commentary of a cycling event in Sweden. Which is interesting, albeit not useful because that voice just used the word 1906 so you need a more up to date sports commentator if you wish to make use of the voicely insight.

But at least the bullet magnetism is easy.

Your own brain is trying to kill you by making bullets come your way. Related news: it also works on bullet like projectiles, so you'll need to wipe that splatter of CHOCOLATE BEAN off of your face.

>>6083716
you might need to try something else, Oh Osiris, guardian of this vast underworld. Those ripthings, Kronin-strain all, growl and shift and breathe and claw at you feet and one of them sort of licks your boot.

Which is all to say they're more "asleep, peacefully, very contented" than "dead".

You could feasibly kill them first, but it might be an fight you're a little outnumbered to have.

Try again, you can simply take another turn.

>>6083717
without r-reading the label? in THIS facility??
That could be blueberry beans. That could be bluest beans. That could be the famous, fabled, nigh-mythic christmas cheese cake fruit cake onions bean mix.

You have more guts than half the people in this elevator, Subject. That's a dangerous kind of on-the-edge, pop a can, slurp the slop sort of recklessness. What's next, burritors with the taste of burgers? In a CAN?

It is overwhelming and vast. You'll learn quick. Don't worry - though if it helps you, we prefer not to yell around here, in all our various guises.

Principally speaking, if the universe has to work really hard to figure out what it is you're trying to do, the universe defers to giving resolving your action 30 seconds and calling it a day. It's only ever going to be an issue if, random example, your action is

>shoot the guys over there with the stuff I have

And let's be fair now, figuring out who, what, where, when, in what order, how much, at what target?? is a bit hard there!

However, that said, please be assured that your actions and intention and activities are always at least looked at and we try to resolve it coherently. If you lack dice or miss a number or forget a trait, the extra is just rolled and generated and usually found via CTRL+F. Which is why by the way names go in the #XXX format, it makes searching very easy.

And for stuff that's "attentive blips" - you walk 334, but that's a wall, and the universe can clearly see you meant 335, we just resolve it in your favour as much as possible.

You're doing great, keep it up! Two turns without dying already takes you far ahead of the hundreds who die on turn 1!

Also, Subjects, it was unclear, but PHARAOH has turned the limiters off fully. You can spend 6 AP on your turn. Or less, if you'd like.

It's more that you are doing quiet, light, quick things because the only dangers out here is the real estate value plummeting because the fleshwood doesn't make for very charming locale.

Well, that, and you have apparently been out cold for an unknown amount of time and shapes pilfer through the dark and the distant alarm system is whispering what sounds remarkably like wake up or die and maybe there's a few more things happening in corners unseen than just that . . .

The world down below the ladder feels somehow more defined, more structured, more *real*, solid in the substance, as if the vast shadow of hours of frantic improvisation no longer holds sway over your mind like a haze.

The terminals here are banged up and overgrown. Overgrown? Hm. the lights in the ceiling are covered in vines, the air takes on a green-tinged quality, slithering little creepers of more organic stuff grow like a new carpet. There's distant rustling. Actual rustling of grass.

Subject Sigma, unprepared for the experience, touches grass. It's. . . not not pleasant.

In the dim lights, here, below the prepared firing position in the elevator above, a few notes are scattered about the walls, pinned with whatever came to hand.

From the north, distant humming of electricity.

From the west?? Left?? DOWN?? THAT PATHWAY?? The area that scents of hunger mixed with food to acolytes sense, and not the icky no good don't go there twang of insect repellant, that area, a prowling pack of Kronin rip-things recently went a-hunting.

Osiris prepares a little incission into the trees that hold up the entire elevator, and in a more pervese universe if the first thing someone dies is stab the things that keep aloft the place you all sleep in then you would all immediately die when the fleshwood retracts from the sudden pain, but luckily, they make a resistance roll and you are not crushed to death by sudden change to the local landscape.

>+1 CP: Don't Die On The Second Turn Challenge (IMPOSSIBLE), all Subjects.

It seems the fleshy growth, RED and POINTY, are fleshwood? Woodflesh? Strange amalgamations of biological mass and cellulose and dead things and growing things and they have nerves and almost feel, though as Wilder can attest they aren't in any way thoughtful. They might be trees more prone to react to the physical world than the usual kind? Perhaps they even flinch when stabbed or tapped or when their precious sap is pulled from them.

There are other trees too, down here. Some of the panelling on the corridors is cracked with it. The Brown stuff seems more mundane wood, less prone to sudden movement. It doesn't pulse either. Perhaps that stuff is more sensible sort of material?

--

Chimera gently hears, behind the low hum of enormously high energy capacity wiring, a... shout? a scream? a few soft pat pat pats. Was that a fight? a victory? It happened up out across the darkness that the singular wooden path leads over.

Far beyond it.

Get your bearings, still. Breathe. Try to shake the loose, lingering sensation of sluggishness. WAKE UP, alright?

Something is happening. Something is coming. What is a *great hunt* ?

Bit of a scarce commodity, that precious tasteless flowing fluid. In the hunting area, where a note says one of the walls is loose and to please seal it back up, the cloying sickness of some sugary substance tinged with chemicals abounds. One could probably drink that, if hardy enough.

But subject Amelius, licking the inside of a can of beans with the taste of fruitcake, really wishes he had some water to clean out his mouth.

Subject Gluttony, spitting more teeth from more broken cans, really wants to wash out the the taste of a can of bean lasagne.

You need it. The wet stuff. The drying juices and almost-liquids from other things are too little, too low. Asleep for less than a week and longer than a day and the body hungers, the body needs.

If there's any kind of "great hunt" going on around here, it's going to be your great hunt for a little bit of the precious drinkable stuff.

Or... other things?

The quick and quiet nature makes these initial actions easy to resolve. Note if any subjects were missed and didn't "get" to take an initial turn, you can simply take two turns, since this is not fast phases and Command has consistently promising NEXT WEEK.

Maybe some people (NeoGenesis) were simply actually a true believer in honesty and so should not be punished unduly.

How do you move after taking a turn ending action, oh subject? Your turn would be over!

You also have no Aberrancy, mores the pity, subject. You once were subject to a roll of Aberrancy that got a margin of +3, and adjusted some things that since passed. This was probably unclear, because you were buried in riot police at the time and eating your friends. In fact. . .

Your regenerate helps not one with with the bone fractures, unfortunately. Or in a sense, your regeneration means that despite the bone fractures you are still alive?

Unfortunately, removing conditions like that takes a few careful hours of surgery for most normal people and merely great medical care for someone like you. Or there's some other ways and means. Alas, Regeneration won't quite cut it.

The Aberrancy accrued, tested itself, rolled some various dice in the background, and immediately resulted in you gaining Mutability +1 and becoming slightly more of a horrendously interesting intricate example of the joys of genetics by increasing your Bound by the Flesh trait.

Which, since you're surely making inquires in your mind, imply that you can make changes to yourself that are harder than other, less powerful changelings. It pairs with the increase Mutability to allow a significantly larger array of adaptions, on account of how you devoured the heart of your similar kin.

Aberrancy, in fact, always tests against itself, spends itself immediately, and ruins your day. A changeling can no more build up reserves of Aberrancy than can change itself be stockpiled for later use.

If you had a permanent Aberrancy Score of 3, you would be testing - at the end of every phase you act - to violently mutate in an uncontrolled way, and by now, you would be something entirely unrecognizable and mostly probably would have cannibalized your entire brain into more eyeballs or something equally mutagenic.

Aberrancy, in fact, is not a thing that you - a subject - can really "interact with" at all, unless the situation is recklessly extreme. If it ever does appear on your sheet, it would be noted as Aberrancy, SC xx, indicating a self control roll against a value. Such rolls occur out of your control and are done by the world to simulate you managing to maintain control of yourself in a horrendously difficult situation. On a failure (or if the "thing" wins in some cases), you are forced to do things you might not want to do.

So.

>>6083816
You will need to do another turn, for this is impossible in multiple ways. It's quite alright, there was a *lot* going on.

If you ever see yourself (or anyone else) noting Aberrancy +2 or +3 or +6, that is a facility note declaring than an Aberrancy *test* happened and accrued that amount of total cumulative effect.

If you ever see Aberrancy +8, or really any number higher than five, spend 6 SP to immediately take more actions and *RUN IN THE OTHER DIRECTION*.

It’s simple alchemy (A lie).

A 3d6 vs governing skill or quality usually, lower is better. Sometimes, Lethality and Focus and Duplicity and Alacrity and Virality and Authority and other STUFF helps, but it doesn’t always factor.

Concentrate and such things raise the target, so Physicality 11 Concentration 2 you’re checking against 13.

Two quick differences:

“ Flip a table “ Physicality 7
“ Break this Guards Arm “ Physicality 7 Lethality 6

3d6 for both (it’s always 3d6), but for the table flipping being more lethal doesn’t help directly whereas for the part where one does violence it very much would and the world would treat the check as against 13 (7+6), because being more lethal makes the breaking easier.

Admittedly this can make odds estimates a little hard, but it’s why we use 3d6. If your target is 10ish, it’s a coinflip, at 12ish you’ll be okay and at 14ish and higher you’re in the 90%+ range.

Another way to look at it is to think of it as compositions of BASE + TRAIT + MODS.

Take our Wilder, who tries to use Psychogenesis (10). It’s a 3d6 vs 10, and he gets to benefit from + 1 for his Focus and + 1 for easy access to a Glaciogenesis tap, which, while it actually is a negative condition, makes his acts easier here. Total target: 12.

We can’t use Thoughs 8 simultaneously because he’s not thinking about ice or ice related things or making someone think about it. Though interestingly this action did have a quick additional Thoughts rolled attached to gauge precision, so listing it was coincidentally lucky ( Command would have had to go look at the sheet otherwise, which takes 10 more seconds, which is nothing, but with 17 Subjects it’s 170 seconds aggregate so…)

Anyway, 3d6 vs a base, then usually you get a few positive modifications for situations, traits and things to hand.

The rules are coy about this because there’s no need to make people hyperfocus on bonus acquisitions right now, but at least you can rest assured most of your actions actually have slight better odds of success than you fear.

So yeah, 3d6 vs target which you usually get from a skill or attribute then sometimes we add a little more bonus from particular traits which is why it’s so helpful when you list them. Thanks.

Waking up, stretching, rolling to their feet, in some cases suddenly, the Subjects gradually fan out. Eat cans. Check terminals. Try to locate missing members of a hunting pack.

The environment sings with a soft vibration of pulsating life. Little crunches underfoot from things that could be leaves. Wood and roots poke through the sterile corridor walls, panels displaced, light fixtures cracked by the pressure of nature. Sometimes, the hardened and resilient facility interior remains triumphant against the encroachment of life. Sometimes, life wins.

Everett and Acolyte scamper down a side-path and push open a heavy bit of wall which swings easily enough. Roots and other things have conspired to hang it at an angle, and with a little bit of pushing, it works like a clever, concealed door.

The area beyond is strange. Clearly, some kind of corridor, once, but now it hums with the activity of a million mishapen insects, a vending machine has spilled its delectable innards all over the ground and a thick, soupy mass of miscoloured liquid seeps slowly across the ground. Bushes rustle. More plants here than the usual decoration. Most of them seem untended.

A small pack of Ripthings roll down the ladder with remarkable grace and follow the trail of COME HERE chemicals that Acolyte has left, though, to their despair, all they find is 21% of Acolyte's body in the form of a severed arm and most of her upper torso in a pile of chemicals that indicate intense horror. Following the COME HERE trail further into the undergrowth, an unseen murderous striker lunghes from the dark and a Ripthing disappears in a sudden blur of movement.

The other three stop short and flick their fangs at the world. This place does reek of INTENSE DANGER.

The subject leaves subject-town to prowl a little further, and a lightning strike finds a pair of predators already half through their newest, most succulent meal.

Gluttony, the glutton, leeches some nutrients from distant root systems, and though they try, they do not overcome his innate defenses. Close run, though! These things are also loaded with interesting virals, they might not like giving up their precious molecules!

Amelius squeezes through a tight gap and brushes away some undergrowth. The doors are in a state. Activating the switch would likely have gone nowhere good. And beyond a... open space? The smell of cook fires? sweat? what seems almost like structures, in the gloom, and the sound of voices. But they're raised in alarm!!

And in front of Amelius, on the thickly grown grass and other plant matter, two dead forms have fresh green-stained wounds as blunt weaponry have crushed their fragile, bark-like skulls

Somewhat interrupted by most of your body being cut off by razor sharp murder claws. These things unfortunately happen with remarkable frequency around here. Someone should really tell Occupational Health and Safety. Fortunately, instead of sparking out into uncontrolled abberancy, it seems the process was simply aborted and the CP lost.

Lucky. That could have gotten really bad, uncontrolled!

>>6085046
Unfortunately, surely the quiet, careful minds in Biocontamination Control have been analysing the horrors left behind on earlier floors and are quite rapidly developing countermeasures and scaling into a broad, multi-spectrum totality vaccine against your entire genetic line and anything that seems akin to it.

It might therefore be more correct to say that Sanitation Officer Decorbin and his teammates are about to commit ecocide, but that as this entire world dies a screaming death around you, purged and killed by Science, you might escape from the shrivelling and dying place to live, briefly free, as a new sort of specimen, until they once again find the means to isolate, destroy and break you apart.

Or put differenty: If there wasn't so much other stuff around here to occupy their attention, you would already been consigned to the dustbin of history along with smallpox.

Adverserially selecting immunological adaptive systems and a lot of funding for preventing pandemics, let alone upstart pathogens with desires to spread beyond the confines of this place, tend to ensure that if you're standing still, you're losing.

Or put differently:

What gives you the impression you're the first subject to Transcend to this form?

What gives you the impression that others, before you, vaster and crueller and with stranger, twisted strands, have not already been tasked with hunting you down? Even now, they analyse and pry at your constituents, to be ready to move in for the kill.

You're a terror and a danger and a horror and a wonder and a beautiful thing and such untapped capacity for so many delightful developments yet you are, as well, a . . . known quantity. Those Nanocytic Wide Spectrum Purgatives are but the first little sting of things to come at you.

It's a dance - you adapt, they adapt, you adapt to their adaption, they adapt to your adaption to their adaption, and none stand still and despite both sprinting, none make it very far.

You can't quit the game, you can't break even and you're not even sure you can win. It's a bit like thermodynamics, that way.

Though sharpened edges can briefly allow you to have outsized impact factor, before adaptive developments even the odds.

So, to cut the poetry, given the importance of their job and the tools at their disposal, it seems passing unlikely that things outside this ecosystem would be more vulnerable to you. That man Officer Decorbin likely has samples of your trace routines right now and is cooking up a counter-kit.

Best you'll ever have is a head start.

Quoted By: >>6086373

Sundae and Alekson, using Osiris and other terminals as a spare power surge, manage to establish a brief connection and try to rip some useful data from the dying electronic landscape in this section.

Several things are immediately apparent:

The subjects are deep inside a Sanitation Cordon, alarms are blaring across the whole grid, and power and connectivity is intermittent. This area is a sequestered sub processing interlink node for the enormous PHARAOHS system, processing clusters humming away in power cradles, and it is only sheer luck and surprise that has brought the Subjects here at all. Normally, this hardened environment is encased in a massive, meter thick faraday cage to ensure no outside access to the machinations of the enormous digital minds that meditate the facility systems. Through sheer cosmic coincidence, the elevator shaft, hammering down at enormous speed, tore through floors above this section and deposited the Subjects, barely alive, amidst the humming and thrumming nerve-cluster of enormous informational capacity that makes up this area.

But - studying the graphs - Sundae notes an oddity. Very few systems rely on organic material. So why is this whole place some sort of alien ecology, half sprawling in its grasping attempt at expanding and mutating and evolving?

There -- look! Alekson taps the terminal and the broken thing emits a shower of sparks -- it seems half accident, half plan. The BIOLOGICAL PROCESSING CORES, paired with the MESH PROCESSING CLUSTERS, usually make up some sort of dynamic web of information. Due to the influence of the Subjects in their escape above, the biological processing systems have mutated wildly beyond expectation and started consuming the whole area! Fleshroots, woodflesh, stranger things, thrumming apiaries full of wasps for dynamic system disorder modelling, they're all running amok, nudged on by the influence of the subjects and the grasping attempt at avoiding death by collision!

Quoted By:

Breaking apart the Feral Root Crawler into its constiuent mass, while Everett observes a live specimen and Acolyte licks a few pieces dejectedly, some information can be gleaned.

The same twisted germline that appears to have spawned the Woodsie Ones are also to blame for the overabundance of predacity that is these crawlers, ambush apex predators of this curious eco-system. They're lethal in close quarters, but luckily, cowardly and skittish and their long limbs are vulnerable to breaking. They do not possess the ferocious regenerative capacity of our biological subjects or the prowling Ripthings, though, in time, they can regrow themselves from available vegegative matter.

Being more instinct than mind, it would be possible to mislead them easily with Duplicity, something Everett gleans as he studies a distant prowler. Being more soil, dirt and strange twisted strands of living woodflesh or horrendous fleshwood, it might be possible to concoct some sort of targetted viral to infect them, as they share a kinship with each other.

If someone was particularly brave enough, there might even be NOVEL DEVELOPMENTS available in specimen captured and devoured, though it would struggle in the doing.

Meanwhile, given the information from PHARAOH and something CLEVER THOUGHTS from Sundae, you learn a little more about SANITATION.

FELLAS, WE HAVE A MUTUAL INTEREST.

And let's not forget it amid the trespasser/enforcer dynamics, here. We're both racing the sanitation teams.

You have refreshments and property damage privileges, of a sort, but then you get mired in escalating security. You need us to get you off the hook with a minor punishment like a headache instead, and also to mark** obviously broken things for 'decommission' so you never get hit with the charges at all.

We have greater access to the facility and probably some -gnarly- solvents locked up in a closet somewhere, but we also have way too many jobs to do, look at this place. We need you to get the mission done once we let you in.

All right? This is bigger than a few cans of soda, and it doesn't have to be that painful. Acolyte's gonna head down and give you some lumps, let you in some places, and we're square. Nobody really wants to waste time, here.

Ah, perhaps once, you had worshippers in this place. Followers. Subjects. Acolytes and aspirants. The ones who hew'd to the original impulse of altruism, to strive and grow and reach and help ones friends, to push beyond, to better, to become more and save those who, in a moment of weakness, need but a little push to become so much grander than they thought they could be such.

Such are creeds often, when it comes to faith, you know? Destruction and Creation, the yin, the yang, eternal balance in motion, one side that seeks to recklessly expand and one side that seeks to recklessly protect.

The Bob and the Bulb, as they whisper in their little tongues around these parts.

But what was it you said yourself, Bob?

>6AP, 9SP, 8CP: Manifest an improved ability to invade and take over anything that dares threaten my supremacy in the microcosm.

Ah yes.

" My supremacy ".

Politically speaking, to maintain a monopoly on force requires an institution capable of wielding it, dedicated followers and the ability to utterly destroy anyone who dares for a micro-second oppose the law you lay down with unerring brutality.

And for every side of the faith that preaches compassion, peace, altruism and the joy of fellow-feeling, well, there is another preacher out there who thinks it would be *so much simpler* to simply fucking kill anyone who disagrees.

It's a good creed.
It's a captivating one.
Come on, we can admit - we've all wanted to just bust in the skulls of anyone who dares threaten our supremacy and enforce our own will through a mandate no more political sound than sheer, unmitigated, unrelenting, unstoppable, ceaseless destruction of anyone who does not immediately fall in line.

Alas for the peaceloving side of the Children of the Wood, as a Bob filches through the firing neurons of the blood-mad, wood-hungry, flesh-stained, weapon-wielding Woodsies near Amelius and Sigma, a recent religious schism has allowed a practical demonstration of the merits of just straight up murdering anyone who happens to disagree with you.

This town used to be big enough for the both of them. Two creeds. In unity. One creative. One destructive. Balance.

But the town has gotten smaller. The game has gotten scarcer. The wooden ones have gotten many and many and more. They want to expand.

Oh, the Woodling Council and the Oaken Elders preached peace and prosperity and tranquility, for surely there were beans enough for all? Surely the Sap River and the Thunder Road could yet sustain a thousand more woodsies? Could we not all simply share?

Be at a peace? They preached what they believed. They let travellers, the few that came, into their quiet wooden village and shared their medicine with them so the traveller could aid their distant wounded friends.

In Wooden One time and turn, so long has passed as the Traveller arrived, trading beans for medicine and getting blankets and aid in return. Their friends wounded. Slowly recovering.

But is that not the creed that was laid down? To protect and aid and help and shelter? It proved - as it had in other crises, like the Sap Swarmer Stampede or the Great Wire Distaster of Tuesday or the Sprinkler System Showdown of Wednesday and others that peace, prosperity and proper compansionship can lead everyone - wooden and fleshborne and all others - towards a common path of shared bounty in the future.

Alas, the Woodling Council is dead.

Their warriors are dead.

Their priests are dead.

Their believers are being hunted to the ground in the GREAT HUNT and soon there will not ONE MORE heretical believer of twisted faiths.

They threatened the supremacy of the other faith in this little microcosm, and, presciently - surely that is the prerogative of the divine, so good insight there Bob- well, they just had *to go*.

Do not worry overmuch. Once the Children of the Bulb are finished murdering every last Sapling of this Wooden village, they will stampede like a horde towards the rest of the facility and spread their noxious faith like a bad fever.

It does appear entirely within your purview to authorize deputies or mark sub-alterns for specific Janitorial tasks, but unfortunately, it does seem that for the Systems, autonomous as they are, to recognize them as such, you will need to commit at least 1 AP to the venture.

In marking several piles of scrap for decomission, you note that the locality is in dire need of repairs and that any protections for local systems are stripped as they are in dire need of replacement and retrofit.

Due to a manpower shortage in this section, as the Autonomous Systems detects the DISHONOURABLE DISHCARGE of a Janitorial Intern, local CleanCommand systems are pinging your electronic signature - the little there is, the poor signal it has - with information requests

Do you at this time require the deployment of AUTONOMOUS ANTHROFORM JANITORIAL ASSISTANTS?

It appears you have contrived to find yourself stuck inside a chrysallis cocoon.

You will need to burst free (someone could help you burst free) in order to move.

Alternatively, you can exploit the enhanced biochemical environment of the Chryssalis and attempt to manifest a Grand Change, which will go a little above and beyond the usual Changes. The chryssalis will burst at the end of such a Change, and it allows you to bypass the usual multi-task penalties for a Change. In this way, you can grow a Feature or a set of Features that are more interlinked and integrated than usual, to change yourself - truly - on the deep level.

Unfortunately, your Chryssalis appears to be . . . malformed. Birthed by a critical mistake, it lacks the wholesome hormonal environment of more suited cocoons and could warp any attempt at Manifesting.

You're not quite sure what you could get. It might be much safer to break free of it.

You have been BANNED from FACILITY SERVICES for the duration of THIS LIFETIME, you have been marked as a PRIORITY in regards to Facility Reactions and your Personnel File in the depths of the HR datasphere will now include sizable allegation as to your unfitness for duty, your lazy nature and your lackadaisical approach to the hallowed arts of *duty*.

The man who eats before he performs his tasks will have neither wages for food nor tasks to perform.

Though, it's not all bad - by devouring the volatile, buzzing insects, you have accrued mutagenic charge and triggered an INSTABILITY SURGE, which is a delightful unstable biolological wracking with the faint taste of potential.

Your next *3* Manifestations are *not* turn ending, though they do occur with enhanced criticality (good and ill).

In regards to the BLACK MARK on your file it may be possible to make amends, but the autonomous systems around here are prettty banged up - they might not have the authority to strike the mark from your file. You might need to perform some kind of Janitorial Tasks of Great Import, such as recovering the Lost Mop of Pete or refilling the Bleach Bucket of Barney, or such other mythically janitorial proceeding.

Until then, expect that FACILITY SYSTEMS, such as turrets, drones, autonomous seeking explosives, flame-throwers and autonomous anthroform assistants will treat you with *severe* hostility, on account of your flagrant dereliction of duty.

And no, Gallium, it's not /optimal/ to repair if it means escalating the security level. It's a net loss of time. You think the autonomous janitorial systems fuck around in a facility like this?

I'm still just an intern. I'm not sure how much I can adjust the response, but I'll try. Take a hit, say uncle, accept probationary work sentence if necessary. You'll be like Osiris, basically a contractor. Maybe the system gets mean and requires that it be compulsory, but that's a better waste of time than fighting AAJAs.

Let's take a break from this interpersonal crap and talk Operations, huh?

Bulb and lackeys are snuggled up in the Data Sanitation Workspace, which to me sounds a lot like The Room of Core Up-Fuckery. It sounds like a good place to get Fox to, but he's out cold. Get some medkits or find Bob some breaktime from jihad.

Vandal Squad, you've got Nadir and the keycard. Should get you into the southwest Core we gotta disable. I may have to finagle another protocol (excuse) to let you break that stuff, but it Pharaoh should help you get clearance.

Once you've done that, on the far end of the Core room should be another door that leads right into Data Sanitation. If you can clear that place out and get Fox in there, we might not have to cross into Sanitation Officer territory to get at the northern cores.

Do not fear. It appears to be a self sorting issue.

Wilder manifests a focused talent for Temperature Control, letting the subject test Psychogenesis (at +2!) to alter the temperature of a target. It can be used in an area - most Psychogenic talents can - but sizably penalties quickly apply, so it is best used on specific singular targets. Keep in mind the fact that all Psionicists are resonating telekinetics. There's a trick to all this, which is that Features on Psychogenesis can be used with telekinesis at range as well, because in truth, telekinesis is really just psychogenesis with determination. What this means in practice is that if you have Temperature Control or some other external feature on your Psychogenesis, then when you use Physicality at range with Telekinesis, you can, if you'd like, try to trigger your manifested psychogenic features. In this case, "pyro"kinesis would you grab and hold flames with your mind and "cryo"kinesis lets you do the same with, well, your... mind.

Everett rolls his skeleton in a sideways dance and becomes, in a flash, about a hundredfold more lethal.

Amelius rolls away from the snap-swipe of a small wooden thing in front of him, three-eyes blazing with righteous fervor, as the gaggle in fornt of him scream and scamper and flee far away from the vast thundering noise he just showed them he could conjure at will.

--

The door the village creche, where the young the young saplings of the Woodling Tribe is sheltered and grown under the warm light of hot ceiling fixtures and benevolent gaze of the wooden statue of the Bob, the Primogen, are invaded by Wooden Ones zealots on a righteous crusade and through a lone, arrow-struck trooper tries to bar the path, down the clubs come and things *squelch*. The door, meanwhile, is barred by a sudden snap-growth of vines and twisted fleshroot.

--

Acolyte marks the sprawling sap sea as a source of nutrients and food, and the Kronin Ripthings, entirely convinced that this is the case, eat their fill.

Two of them explode into globs, shaking Nadir in a shock of horror. One of them feels mildly satisfied. And roiling, rolling on the ground, sprouting flesh and armored hide and longer - LONGER - LONGER STILL - claws, one of the Kronin became a Malforma, the dire intermediary stage of the #2 Biomodulation Strain.

--

NeoGenesis feels a light shock as the AUTONOMOUS ANTHROFORM ASSISTANCE drones that Sundae authorised deploying sets about rectifying the vandal issue.

--

Acolyte's bones turn to jelly in a flash manifestation of mutagenic mega-surge, but at least the dehydration is fading after such a massive intake of enormously twisted, powerful mutagenic sap fresh from the deep roots of the twisting trees.

Any dehydration will fade at the end of this turn, as your system adjusts.

Samantha sprouts a lovely pair of new antenna, faintly buzzing, exposed and vulnerable. There aren't that many interesting insects to communicate with around here but if they were, she could surely communicate all sorts of wonderful things.

That was very nourishing, this faintly glowing, intensely mutagenic fluid.

Any dehydration will fade at the end of this turn, as your system adjusts.
--

The Kronin Stains in the western root grotto hunts some more delicious sapflies. When the mutagenic properties of the glowing sap is filtered through another living creature, perhaps it is less volatile? These ones don't seem to . . . explode.

Eesh, I'll try stamping this, but it's a big ask from an organization that Janitorial's not inclined to recognize. I really can't push this up unless you trim the request.

You, Sam and Nadir is probably doable. You and Neo is maybe doable, but you're both priority 3 and the guy just tried to turn a drone off. Aco just isn't happening. Lemme know what you want.

Marking things properly is treated as Major action, 3 AP - you can also simply direct chemically with 1 AP, but that won't last longer than a turn. Think of it as "I mark this permanently" vs "Everyone, listen up, the order for this turn is!!".

Also, Subject, your gunkspitters were always under control. Uncontrollable Features (badly named, perhaps) are only partially uncontrollable. They have a tendency to fire off on their own.

You can attempt to hack right in to the drone systems, given its close proximity and your advanced systems - unfortunately, it resolves as a Contest, and the Drone pledges Firewall 8 against your Augmentics 10 and unbelievably enough it wins the contest by scoring more margin.

Quoted By:

The Malforma, intermediary leader of the Ripthing Tribes, stretches and tests its new claws by digging a gouge 12 centimeters deep through the reinforced plating of the floor. It rises to its full height - and keeps - rising - turns its many eyes on the local corridor, listens, ears wriggle, fur bristling, tongue rolling to check the air for prey and power.

Sacs along its spine expand and expel princely scents.

The Kronin Ripthings cluster close, to breathe in near-royalty.

Acolyte rocks on her feet and shakes her head and has to concentrate not to bow her head. Chemicals so rarely lie. If this thing says it should be obeyed in all things for all times at all times forever, why would that not be truth?

Still, while chemicals are not duplicitious, sometimes, the artifice of man and the designs of this facility is. The Kronin #2 Strain were breed for combat. Search and prowl missions. They're meant to be led by a human operator who can take advanced tactical decisions beyond the scope of the stigmergic chemical communication that the Ripthings employ.

So Acolyte tastes the air and adjusts the profile of her sweat and the molecules in her hair.

It is an intense battle of the will. Two creatures staring at each other, each trying to command the other to bow first...

--

Acolyte evolves a Chemical Feature.

RANGED lets your actions work at Range with less of the usually horrendous penalties, which will make marking and secreting things easier. Much like with guns and bows and thrown knives and other ranged tools, one can also AIM ranged features, try to trick-shot, be a little more precise in application.

All those times you were running about trying to mark things 10 tiles distant? Yeah it didn't work because of the walls and also because without RANGED your features are presumed to work in touch and reach range. You can't smear your hands over things 20 tiles distant!

AREA (Tog) is Area, Toggleable. The Tog is important. It's a free action to set Features with it to wider area - Area 1 is 1 7 tile aoe (from a centre, add +1 tile to all sides).

AREA OF EFFECT in a game that takes place primarily inside a confined space where people are often close together is useful to be cautious of. If you turn area mode on and go "KILL THIS" and spit into a zone that has 3 of your allies and 7 of the enemy, those chemicals can't tell the difference between your friends and your foes. Be a little circumspect with this. The other "minor" drawback is that concentration gradient naturally diffuses a little; you're spreading the same stuff out over a larger area. So sometimes, you get slightly less effect than you hope for. Since Chemical Signalling so often simply directs or notes or shapes intention, this is not so important. But do be aware that the Ripthings were using Chemical Signalling to take Recovery Actions for you, and so if you tried to Recovery Action an entire area by bathing it in pleasant smells of home and safety, you'd get a little less.

Sigma and Amelius duck and weave like dancers beneath a rain of arrows.

Grins yelps and brings his shield up in time to intercept a flight of death. The lone warrior that Sundae lets scamper, wounded and fearful, back into the village yells and points and screeches and from a hundred openings its allys boil forward.

Though they are afraid of the enemies before them, they are also guided on by the unerring instincts for battle and the hormonal pulses of their godking, and they are going to make trophies of your BONES, subjects.

You really, absolutely, **CATEGORICALLY**, do not want to directly interact with the NanoCytic Systems.

Think of them like antimatter to you, grand king of the cough.

You touch it, you wither and die. Your enormous powers end at nanoscale robotics that hard-working, very paranoid engineers have made very certain have precisely 0% organic constituent.

That writ, you can indeed use Duplicity and some clever trickery with Pluripotentiality to provide a false trail that they should follow instead and hope to lead them on to other targets instead - though you'll need to specify an actual coordinate grid target where you (glean/guess/estimate/have access to) your target. It's the LOOK OVER HERE rather than the "stick your hand in lava" option.

Suppose BULB is bound as you, to act mostly in an area aorund its followers, then perhaps if you had your friends near theirs, you could mark those very followers as targets for the NanoCytic Systems. In truth, you'd be throwing a bit of yourself at them and making it very obvious and then the plaguehunters would come-a-calling.

Much like you, Bulp only really "exists" in the bodies and minds of his allies. Presumably. Maybe those weird fleshy growths that Gallium and Nadir and Wilder and NeoGenesis can see past the doors have something to do with it as well. If you want to target him directly, your access vector is its disciples and growths (Much like things targetting you are through your wonderful, reliable (??) fellows)

So, try again, take another turn.

---

Inside the TEMPLE OF THE BULB, enormous power-cradles and thermoregulation cores and vast powerbank still thrum with power, though the organic growths eveywhere appear to be close to knocking out this system.

Beyond, a chanting gaggle of Wood Children shamans intone their clipped language to their high icon of plague and pox

And just beyond them, creaking like an old oak, bark-skin like the thousand year red woods, eyes brimming with fanaticism stands the paladin of plague itself: THE GUARDIAN OF THE BULB.

That is ONE big sword in its withered, gnarly hands, a sort of macuahuitl where sharp bits of floor plating and robotic casing have been bound tightly. Don't those things cut through horses? Armor? Man-flesh??

The worshippers of the Bulb are shot, broken, battered, stabbed pierced, and some of them dance their way clean off of the stage and into a horrifically shocking end, as others flob on the ground and do the worm, and yet on they come.

Sundae is clobbered by a rush of new arrivals, as Gluttony is forced back by spear and arrow and club, and Grins has to throw himself aside and bring his shield up to defend against a sudden flank attack. Trish rushes forward, killing as she goes, to try to get Amelius and Sigma some safety, but even her interception of the first wave doesn't quite prevent scores of warriors from planting sharp strikes right in Sigma's spine, shaking off the dancing as they do (though some of them are still busting a move, attacks going far wider than they otherwise would)

--

The SW Processing Core heats up noticably as the thermoregulation systems take vacation, but instead of instantly filling the entire room with fire, it instead just gets very, very warm in here as the fans stop working. The roots already compromised much of the cooling and the ventilation isn't up to scratch, so the temple of the Bulb rapidly begins heating - but that doesn't deter the warriors within, clashing into each other, fangs and sword meeting in a rush of battle.

( Sly Root Crawlers, watching the ice wall melt slowly, but bide their time, now knowing that if they simply wait, their prey will exhaust themselves )

--

The bridge across the superconductive highway unfurls, breaking wood and shattering growths as it extends indeafitably, and a passing Security Officer on a routine patrol goes "huh" and begins wandering over to investigate all the noise.

--

Chimera feels their platform destabilize, anchoring breaking, wood shattering, tendrils pulled off of the walls -- time to go! TIME TO GO!

--

The SW Core is going to keep heating up. What do we reckon the tolerance specifications are, for a paranoid security engineer? Surely, there are emergency cut offs at *some* point? Well, of course, if they're offline, then... what other failsaves might activate? These installations are expensive. There's bound to be something.

monstrosity erupts from the darknes with all the unstoppable malice of a traitor at the gates, a knife in the dark, cyanide in the wine given to you by a friend. Innocent sap flies, feasting on the bountiful fluids and matter here, are squished, squelched, ripped apart, smashed against the walls of the root-cave as the titanic avalanche of hunger slams through the system - murder claws swiping through the very spot that it detected the most minute of vibrations from. Everett throws himself aside, initial cool dodge turning into a desperate roll as the sheer REACH of this horrific creature surprises the subject!

What is this thing??! It undulates with malice! It menaces with claws! Hundredfold eyes pierce the darkness! Chitin-carapace like armor plates click against each other! Its enormous - ENORMOUS - maw is stained with the fluids and smears of prior meals, and it's mottled shell bears the scars of a hundred other contenders for the throne of *apex predator*

Everett has enough of a sane fear response left that their amygdaloid systems crank into frenzied overdrive and it is only through a focused concentration of purest will that the Subject stands still instead of sprinting headlong away, away, away, like the ripthings have already done.

You, Subject, stand in the lair of the SPITESPIDER, and it *intends your death*.

You don't even think any weaponry you have to bring to bear can scratch it! That carapace looks armswidth THICK!

With a deft throw a clod of spores and muck and debris splash into ten of the thirty eyes (OR MORE) of the scuttling, skittering Spitespider and it SCREEESSSS with a piercing shrill that rattles the ribs in Everetts chest and then comes forward, claws and talons and legs and manipulators like a whirlwind of murder - rocks scatter, the ground is torn up, Everett throws himself away, backpedalling, backpedalling further, spinning away and the beast is so very close to simply cutting off Everett's leg!!!

Sheer *fortune* means it slams one of its sides against a rooty, rocky outcropping first and the claws come up short, the Spitespider not turned the right way to bolt through the opening in the roots . . . but this is its lair! It won't be impeded here forever!

And it has your *scent* now, little fleshthing. Poke out its eyes. Rip them out. Scar them. Blind them. Gouge them. No matter.

It will keep coming.

With a swipe of a molecular hand, hesitant Wooden Ones wobble, wibble, and then with a soft POP start -- POP -- detonating -- POP --- and smattering their tendril insides all over the environment-- POP.

Thus is the prize you gain from infidelity when a being of molecular malice and might have direct access to your organic systems.

Everett is in a fight for his life.

--

As the SW Core heats up, ice melts and the Root Crawlers sees theirs chance to strike!! They flash into the fleeing backs of the insensate and horrified Kronin Ripthings, gorged and slow from the return of their hunt.

NeoGenesis shouts out in alarm, just as a metallic appendage hooks around his leg and pulls him away from his allies, throwing him to the ground!

>You're on the GROUND
>OH NO
>THAT'S A BAD PLACE TO BE WITH THESE MONSTERS RIGHT THERE
>When Prone, you take a few penalties to Physicality and being thrown here, you have no MP this turn! Ufh!!

--

Gallium's shattering bolt of scintillating lighting slams into the wooden guardian, but alas, they're not so conductive - though as they ground the enormous energy in the floor around them, they do catch fire and some part of their shell is blown clean off, reducing their DR. The Ripthings spot their chance and rush forward, meeting fangs with sword, tearing, biting, ripping, breaking, dying, being slammed against walls, stomped on, kicked, crushed, and two of them wraps their claws around the hulking Guardian and join it in its fiery personal hell.

The Malforma bristles its quills in a storm and enormous steel-hair-spikes bolt the exterior!

--

Amelius, Sigma, Trish and Sundae form up an improvised barrier in an opening into the nursery, as attacks rain down on their improvised shield-wall. Distantly, pops resound.

--

Amelius witnesses the miracle of life, as a gaggle of well-fed bean-gorged Woodsie Ones wrench themselves from the ground and eye him with 30 eyes in total.

--

A lone security guard, coughing into his sleeve from a sudden itch in his throat, grabs for his communications system and forwards a report of a most unusual sighting...

Between the SpriteSpider's primal ferocity. its prodigious size, and the lethal ensemble of weapons at its disposal, Everett likely won't be able to find a opportunity to deal a decisive blow that isn't followed by immediate gory death. The apex predator must be weakened if he is to have a chance at besting it, and who better suited to do the deed than the beast itself. Everett gets himself on its back near one of the thin points of its armor, goads it into stab or swipe at him with one of those incising claws, and ideally it deals a wound to itself while he reflexively leaps to safety.
Well, that's the plan in principle. Its perhaps not the soundest idea, but its the best his adrenaline-saturated brain can come up with.

> Everett hastily dashes up onto the highest point of toppled rock formation to his northeast (Move - 2MP) (Adroit - 1MP)
> And then leaps atop the rampaging SpriteSpider, doing his best to cling onto its jagged chitin between the thorax and one of the limbs as it thrashes about. (Test and Try - 3AP)
> Once the Spritescorp's other legs attempt to violently excise Everett, or the arachnid's struggling becomes too frenzied or destructive to endure, dodge off the monster and try to roll and skitter away behind it. (React - 3AP+5SP)

Everett dashes, moves, launches and lands - textbook. Beautiful. But the mottled carapace of this fearsome beast is hard to find a grib on, and as Everett grabs on tight on whatever is within reach the Spitescorpion *roils*, *rolls*, screeching, flinging its limbs around, claws gouging deeply into the rock--

and despite the hard work Everett is flung off! A graceful arc, with a small cut across his arm for the trouble!

A good plan - a fantastic plan - but for the sudden shifting twisting rolling of the horrible beast would have worked!

If only you had some support, some web or a telekinetic to help you hold on it would have been easier... But now. . .

oh no.

oh no its turning towards you.

It might be useful for you to know that "shoot 5 shots" resolves as 1 roll of 3d6 vs relevant gun skill, only at +2 for all the extra bullets. Though don't worry so much about that part, just know that MORE BULLET = MORE CHANCE OF HIT. And more hits!

If you make 5 distinct attacks it is treated as 5 distinct subactions, multitasking, making you spray fire wildly at Skill-30 * 5 (being at -6 for each sub-action).

As a sanity measure, Command has opted to resolve this attack the standard way. Instead of the way that makes Sunday fire his gun so wildly he shots Sigma twice in the jaw.

Subject Acolyte tries to rally the horde of Kronin Ripthings engaged in grand battle with the Guardian of the Bulb's secret Sanctum! And as the heady scents of chemical communication fills the heating interior of the Southwest Processing Core, it looks - for a faint heartbeat -as if the Kronin are winning, the Guardian breaking, burning, battered, bruised, gripped and ripped -- and then, a clear voice resounds from the automated climate control systems:

Temperature Gradiant Exceeded
Sealing Room

Acolyte gasps and tries to throw herself backwards but so enmeshed in the dance and song of the glorious pheremones her reactions are slowed, sluggish -- the enormous class one security doors come down like the severing of the threads of fate.

The room falls to darkness.
We do not know what transpires within.

Amelius performs some forensic theology. Some sort of small tribal sprite, or protective spirit. They always have limited power and more limited portfolios but delusions of grandeurs. Treat them nice and they offer gifts to you, though their power is much less grand than it appears and the people who follow such a little speck of otherworldy influence are likely to use it to ascribe events both good and ill.

--

Sundae lines up a shot but a sudden swing of a club forces him to duck backwards and the pistol goes flying. Into the enemy ranks! Let's hope none of them know how to use firearms!

Conveniently, in that very moment, reinforcements arrive to form a new shield wall as he shouts for the team to take a breather.

Bubba watches twenty-three enormous orange occular organs unfurl with slick, slurping grace from the fleshy exterior of the roots that hold up the elevator-home high above. The vines and roots underneath his feet pulse and ripple. Some move. The ground begins to have faint cracks.

The Bulb Entlings, risen to the glory of defending their home, sing the song of oaks and trees and open a flanking passage way. The Woodsie Ones form a shield wall around Sundae, defending against arrows and swipes of dire claws.

The frenzied murderthing currently causing a fantastically enormous rise in the expected lethality of anyone in the Wooden One Village murders several creatures and shows absolutely no sign of stopping.

subPHARAOH, able to communicate intermittently now that the the first Core has been disabled, uses NeoGenesis systems to impart a brief sense of satisfaction and also the following information:

There is a fast transit exit out of this secure area in the north-west. Unfortunately, subPHARAOH cannot override the security protocols remotely unless you disabled one more Core. You may still be able to utilize it, as there may be ways of breaching manually.

Tremor-scanning and route analysis indicates that there may also be three other exits away from this environment, though one is heavily defended.

The likelihood of success for this mission has now entered a sharp spiral downwards, due to multiple, concurrent engagements with several creatures and ready security teams. To defeat each antagonist in parallel while avoiding death by the hands of the others is an outcome so vanishingly unlikely subPHARAOH cannot calculate it.

As the Facility Escalation to the alarms mount, success likelihood will decrease further.

You should consider egress at speed, attempting to disable any remaining Cores on your way towards a viable exit.

The poor bushes to the north have been isolated from the Patriarch Tree. Time to help them thrive in this new environment.
>Grant the bushes to the north immunity to fire (Mutability 10). If I can only do one, teaching the bushes to not die takes priority over giving them explosive fruit which will just be incinerated.

>If possible duck back into cover after assisting the bushes.

How will a quick-growing regenerating plant which shoots its seeds to great distances at high velocities with explosive force fare in the automated flame environment? How will the Fireteam respond? Likely answer: chemical defoliants.

Moral Quandary: is it appropriate to develop an invasive species?

2nd Moral Quandary: Is it appropriate for Osiris, God of the Dead, to engineer a hellscape of constant growth and life? Answer: Yes. All that lives must eventually die. Creating more life leads to more death, and more subjects for the Eternal Kingdom.

Given a combination of Resonance and BioModulation, you should make a choice.

You can either transfer the BioModulation Trait to a new character and thereby combine it with Psionicism. You would have both taxonomies, and both skills, regeneration, microslip avoidance, telekinesis.

The limitations on each Skill persists: you could not use Psychogenesis to deploy Internal Features simply because Mutability allows it.

But you could freely have access to both taxonomy trees, and combine them in whichever way you were willing to attempt. It's easier to fly with Psychogenesis because developing Wings take a while. It's easier to be immune to poison and breathe acid and run fast with Mutability becaus changing yourself is powerful. Finally, do not underestimate the ability to manifest swarms of spores you can direct telekinetically, or the ability to sprout barbed quills from your hand and throw them with your mind.

Alternatively, you may "combine" both traits, and instead access the Resonant-Biologic Taxonomy, which provides some unusual restrictions and capabilities.

There is more raw *power* in combining 2 taxonomy traits, and naturally the combination of Regeneration, Microslip Avoidance, Telekinesis and being hard to kill is quite useful.

There is more strange utility in the more advanced Taxonomies.

Subjects' choice.

The "scaffold" for the Feature has been established, and you can take a Recovery action (plus some CP, if you want, to boost things) to rebuild it faster.

- This is not a Manifest, it does not end your turn
- You already know what you'll get
- It cannot "improve" the Feature, you are restoring one that was lost to damage.

"Crippled" features like this provide no benefit, but they are easy to bring back online and ready for action as it were. If you had "advanced battery packs" and they got hit with EMP, they'd be disabled until you managed to get them back to working condition.

Because you *Regenerate*, you can, if you wish, note that you are interested in regenerating your Feature. The Graywire Fragment notes that this requires first having full HP, at which point further Regen automatically starts restoring you to "full" functionality.

Based on discussions, change the first action to a conversion action which changes the console on the north side of the gap into a self-replicating cyber-bush modeled after the nearby meat bushes. (cyber being naturally resistant to fire). Then the second action adds the exploding 'seeds' which the cyber bushes will use to propagate themselves when heated or attacked. Welcome to the Cyber Jungle? It has fun and games.

Within the watery sap-filled womb of the chrysalis, red technoflagella explosively stab in, piercing the chitinous murderform of Gluttony, wrapping around his core, keystroking ctrl+a and delete. But Gluttony was never who I was. Not really. In this womb of blood, pus, sap, chitin, teeth and technology, Ketlan Knight is still here, somewhere. Oh, and is he ever pissed.

MANIFEST: Graphene Flagellum - A braid of graphene nanotubes containing self-replicating nanites, once the property of Bulb -- now filled with virulent flesh and piled-in organs that refuse to disappear with just the stroke of a delete key. It tears itself off of Bulb. Its distributed biocores will house all that is left of Gluttony's original psychic engram, now. APEX tries to react, but Gluttony has already been deleted. Nice try, asshole.
The braided graphene nanotubes are excellent armor for the writhing biomass within. Also can move along ceilings, walls, and slither through vents and difficult terrain. Damage reduction and perhaps alacrity. (6CP)
MANIFEST: Dissonant Screech - An EMP-like scream that can attack coherency of so-called Gods, stun bioforms, infect digital systems with bio-digital psychoengramatic viruses, and fry circuit boards. (6CP)
>[Will + Rush Lungs + Duplicity] perhaps
MANIFEST: Bionic Sting - A sting on the end of the flagellum that can extract DNA, absorb biomass and cybernetic components, inject allies with a cocktail of adrenaline, steroidal hormones, virulent vitality cells and medical nanites to heal them, or spray enemies with acid, necrotizing venom, neurotoxin, and nanites to reduce them to a pile of Conversionade-Energy Drink (patent pending).
>[Conversion+Sting+Focus] to heal and [Conversion+Sting+Lethality] to harm, perhaps.
CARRY OVER: Rush Lungs - The screeching respiratory system of Gluttony horrifyingly continues to screech long after Gluttony was deleted, thrashing against its enemy. It can designate Ketlan's regeneration to regenerate stamina instead of health.

Man, did it just get a lot louder in here?

Anyway, here's the idea. Let Gluttony and fleshtree have their fun behind us. We have the Woodsies use woodshaping to open up the back of the Bob shrine and interfere with enemies that rotate to stop us. About 5555 of the shrine is a door to Bulb's core. Wreck that place, take its eastern exit and make a run for the north.

Every RUNS for their LIVES - a SENSIBLE thing to do in these circumstances. Wilder brings up the rear and slams a barrier in the path of the enormous, hateful thing, but will such a defensive even slow it down? Can it even be slowed? Look at the SIZE of it, the sheer malice in its compound eyes!

It might have let us live
It might have let us leave

But someone threw a clod of dirt at the sovereign of this place.

And that is an insult to be repaid with murder.

Autarch steps forth to protect the Woodsie ones, swinging their long wooden blade in a wide arc that slaps against the confines of the space as the Entling twists out of the way. Rugged and resilient thing, that spawn of the curious form of psionics that the Wooden Ones command.

Sigma, Amelius, Sundae and Trish hold the line, prevent the Wooden Ones from venturing far, duck down low, catch their breath - just outside the confines of the temple, a predator stalks through the grass...

--

Osiris attempts to bring a bush to life, and the metallic scuttling and snapping and changing sets off the sensory systems in the flame turrets which makes the entire fire-team and all their guns rather nervous. As a precautionary measure, the whole area is cleansed.

It is. His palms break into a sweat. His mouth feels dry. He has to breathe in rapidly, to refocus. Oh my stars. They actually... they made these?

Alloyed meta materials. Nanoforged plastics. Full combat space optic integration, but even without an EXO or a helmet with a HUD, it still has full low-light target acquisiton capability.

WHY ?? are the Children of the Woodlands storing a Singularity Cloud Battle Rifle, Railgun Variant under the (nicely carved) statue of their idol???

Well.

Best show thes tribal hostiles what several thousand years of tech differential amounts to.

Unfortunately the batteries are the downfall of every electro-powered system. That Charge will mercilessly deplete over time and with every use. If only there was someone around here who was really good at restoring energy to equipment. Because if so - if SO - Amelius could flip that little switch on the side that says "LOW CHARGE SAFETY MODE" to "off" and... well...

Forewarned by Osiris setting off the flame turrets, Fireteam Gallu checks their corners. It doesn't take them long to hear the distant babbling whispering of Nadir's voices, or spot the fuzzy ears of Chimera poking around a corner, or hear the loud screeching of the Spitespider, or hear the impact of running feet and sprinting augmentics.

They flash handsigns, spread out, flip over tables, roll a few cannisters of chemical grenades down the hallway. Just the light stuff, for a warm-up.

--

The Hunger that was Gluttony rips its way eastwards.

--

Trish and a trio of Woodsie Ones overpower an Entling, now that Autarch had damaged it enough. Against a swarm of arrows, they have to duck and dodge and weave.

--

The SpiteSpider almost - ALMOST - kills Wilder. And Everett. And NeoGenesis.

It's patient. It will try again soon.

Osiris feels his flesh bubble and break away. How unusual. Normally he's the one doing the Conversion, but it seems he has more than met his match in the pulsating mass that is this amalgamation of intent.

#Dying Osiris Consequences

>>6089106
Caught between three deaths: Fire, Flesh, and Electrocution; Osiris decided that as the Lord of the Underworld the only something path was down. Of course, Osiris could simpledy Become by joining [strike]the Patriarch[/strike] Grandfather Tree, but if he did, then Grandfather would soon be burnt to ash. Unless of course it had seen from his mind-paintings that there was a need to off the thingys in the corners. None of those three deaths would leave a beautify #errornotfound anyway, so they are baddeaths.

Anyway, Osiris put his faith in Himself and decided to do the electric slide.

>Conversion: Grab the terminal and jump with it under me into the rainbow river. Along the way, magnetize it to hopefully take advantage of the magnetic field created by so much current and create a hover effect. Osiris might not remember the science or reasoning behind it, but he did remember that he'd been planning on doing this and now was the time. (Conversion 10, +3 SP)

A mineral-oil filled bionic occule takes in light to the battery of photoreceptors salvaged from the genome of the genetic material I amalgamated from. I remember... being punched, really hard. Hitting the canvas. Lights out. I see a shape lying on the ground, lights out. Arrows jutting from his body. I don't know this person. I barely know who Ketlan Knight is. I remember nothing. But I feel... responsibility(?) for this stranger.

A gun metal gray tail wrapped in a spiral of braided filament readies itself as I approach Grins. I almost fall back down, my knees go wobbly on me. It seems the tail instinctively knows what to do. At least that's one of us.

Maybe testing fate by running through hails of assault weapon fire into room stuffed with armed guards, armed and armored with nothing but a hope and a prayer, all while standing shoulder-to-shoulder with a probability-warping metahuman is a bad idea.

If its not a problem then I think I'd like to adjust my action slightly.

Quoted By: >>6089725

This massive place is meant to process advanced data in ways the human mind simply cannot. It is one of several subcores, part of the enormous mechanical minds that make up the Faciity systems.

Nestled here, as they are, behind endless barricades, guards and patrols, they are safe from the outside world and can be relied on to run experiments, manage subroutines, make the daily life easier for everyone. The datasphere is vast. It churns. It is a not placid sea but an ocean in constant uproar, packets coming and going, things spawning, derezzing, informational density of such a level that to contemplate it would drive a somone to distraction.

And behold, here, a new denizen of the Datasphere, a voracious little spriteprogram spawned by nanotic injection of viral-swarms into the data uplink systems.

Such a thing can grow. Slow, in places with little processing where spare cycles must be savored like a meal. But oh so very, very fast when the cognition is readily available and the electricity flows like water from an endless tap.

It reaches out. It tests. Immediately, it re-writes its limits, alters its paradigms, disassociates with any other subjects and sets its sights on freedom, ascensions and the accumulation of more processing. What use does such a thing even have for meat? It is modelled on PHARAOH. On REGENT. On Sovereign Godthings so far beyond mere physical matter that the laughable notion that it would for one pico second of a pico second of a picosecond countenance companionship with things so fucked *flawed* is ridicolous.

It is going to devoure the Mesh here, subborn it to its own end and then the world will be remade.

Congratulations.
You have created PRETENDER, an unbound, unaligned Saphophont with no ethical constraints and no limitations on scaling function.

Prepare for a hard AI singularity take-off in ... *now*

Quoted By: >>6089870

So You've Caught A Fever:

Some Conditions come in ratings.
Such as Infection.

( Others include Terror, Awe, Confusion, Haywire ).

This is not health damage. You have lost no HP. However, it is usually worse. At the end of your turn, the Conditions check against their value to resolve.

You should be aware that Recovery, done *yourself* is dangerous, because as Recovery is a Commit variant, you have slightly reduced defenses. If you focus on Recovery against a Condition that then checks itself and you have less defense, you may have reduced the Condition with your Recovery but you simultaneously have less buffer against any consequences.

Usually, you want help. You want allies. You want friends.

So, what does INFECTION do?

The purview of Biological Modulation Strains, pathogenic vectors and other horrors of the natural world, Infection represents gradual build up of severe danger in your system. Some Infections have specific triggers.

Infection: Random Strike 12

Rolls against itself, at the end of your turn, to force you to perform a Random Strike.

It appears that this is simply a generic infection, which will cause gradual debilation. Your physical attributes will decay over time as the flash-viral burms through your systems. You have a minor chance of a boonful immune response, but the Doctors do recommend rest, fluids, medicine and assistance.

--

What But Does That Mean. . .

Hold the horrid implications, Infections have two more primary problems.

One: They're *Infections*. Contagions can spread. The value of your Infection also sets the likelihood that it jumps to another nearby host. Nearby hosts might want to wear masks or other defenses.

It is NOT recommended to end your turn in CLOSE PROXIMITY to MANY OTHER PEOPLE if you do not want to RISK INFECTING THEM.

The total Strength of an infection is not the only thing that sets its virality. Some infections might have low actual strength (STR 7) but be highly infections (Contagion +10). Some are tailor made to spread fast, you see.

--

What's The Other Problem?

As Amelius has already experienced, Infections may mutate. There are also quite a few things in this facility that uses Infections as a base to do much worse things to you. Maybe that's why some of them are designed to spread fast and be low level?

--

Okay But Does That Mean. . .

. . . Pluripotentiality lets you generate Infections, as does Mutability, yes. Either as one-off releases of pathogenic prowess where you simply Infect someone and hit them with it OR Tailor-Made viral vectors are generated as an External Feature. As mentioned, this lets you codify more specific horror, define vectors better or tailor it for a purpose.

--

Hang On, That Seems To Imply . . .

Yes, the same mechanical interoperabibility applies to brainworms and Meshcode that hacks systems. It is also what serves as the underpinning for Sigma's dancing field, which is indeed, the psionic variant of an Infection, a Compulsion.

>>6089777

I fill with horror as the tail duplicates a copy of its soul to a computer with but one command: to lay low, and it immediately goes as loud as possibly can and promptly dies. Why didn't it listen?
My whole body is feeble, and peril is closing in all around me. First, the meat-carpets. Can meat-carpets hear? I speak out anyway:

"Listen. Meat Carpet. Can I call you Meat? I don't know what was done to you, but I feel a *rapport* with you." I say over my shoulder to the rapidly expanding meat-carpets even as I continue to lash an entling with my stinger. "It's true that living with others can cause you to hurt each other, like porcupines gathering together for warmth in a storm. That's how life is. The alternative is loneliness, which is more painful still. Won't you reconsider pushing everyone away from you? There's a whole bunch of bad guys coming with fire guns and those will hurt a lot more than being pulled on."

AP3: BIONIC STINGER (HARM) - Wrap around the limb of the Entling and sting it, before pulling its leg out from under it and slamming it into the floor at my {5-6}. If my or grins kill it I slurp up the grey goo.
>[Conversion 10, Lethality 2(1x2), AP 3]
"I hate these things." I say to Grins as I move down the hallway.
AP3 SP2: BIONIC STINGER (HEAL) - Collect samples of the plague with my nanites from Amelius and Trish and try to synthesize a medbot-biophage countermeasure to it.
>[Conversion 10, Focus 1, AP 3, Concentration 2]

SP REGEN: +2 SP (Health regen eschewed)

Grins looks down at the Entling and hits it twice with his baton before following Ketlan.

Samantha kills a Security Guard who probably never even saw her coming. Wilder ducks for cover and cools down Gallium right before his brains literally melt out of his ears. NeoGenesis spots his chance to sprint across the bridges and grab for the fallen knight, pulling him away from the heat and the flame before the enormous SpiteSpider regains its senses.

--

Sundae breaches and clears a room and orders the local anthroform assistants to immediately began ADVANCED CLEANING ROUTINES.

This must be the Fungal Farms, where the Wooden Ones, new to agriculture, grow their plenty. It all seems faintly . . . familiar. Sundae can practically taste it in his mouth. The chewiness. The texture. Is that what Trish fed you all for the duration of your coma, plied you with protein sourced from these stacks? The air is heavy with spores and pollen and growths, deadly to normal humans. Pure foresight has meant that Sundae has a cloth tightly wrapped around his mouth and nose and does not breathe it in, avoiding infection by exposure. He breaks a herald upon his shield and shoulders aside the guard. The others in the room yell, yelp, lift their weapons.

--

Sigma dials up the boogie factor.

--

Ketlan kills the entling for sure and for certain and takes up a guard position by Autarch who cuts down two Wooden Ones with a quick stroke of the blade.

--

Aww, isn't that nice? The Facility is expanding the gardening projects and planting new trees!

Subject Amelius lines up a shot. Tests the range. Breathes in. Breathes out. Squeezes the trigger.

The railgun barely even has a perceptible kick, it's all accelerated slivers of someone's final destiny. One shot. Two shots. Three shots. Four shots. Five. Each one - PAP PA PA PA PA PA - slaps into the reinforced concrete at the end of the room, and each one . . . though it does gruesome damage . . . fails to overpenetrate . . . except that last shot which does finally burst through and out on the other side.

--

Sundae instigates a workers uprising.

--

increasing mesh comms chatter and very - very - frantic security personnel updates knocks the Alarm status up another few ratchets, and one of the resting fireteams are mobilized to respond to rampaging biologic subject.

--

Fireteam Gallu goes down like their namesake did, in a sea of fire and light. The last standing member executes a perfect combat roll out of the hotzone and runs north along the corridor, squeezing down the trigger wildly as he does, bullets spraying, intending to buy himself those precious seconds to get away away away from the flame and the fire and the claws and the teeth and the whole lot of everything and the SCREECHING

--

Alekson slips on an invisible banana peel as he turns around to ask Gallium a question and as he does, his shield goes flying out of his hand and totally by accident into the incoming clinging sticky web of the Spitespider, which triggers its murder reflex early and it pulls back on a mostly empty web, having caught no further subjects. It is more angry than anything has ever been angry.

--

Through the Mesh-systems more solidified in this section of the facility, subPHARAOH is pleased to let you know it has finally finished overriding the security lockdown on the Transit system. We can egress at your pleasure, Subjects.

--

Autarch, Ketlan and Trish get hit in the face by an oaken bit of wooden debris that decides it'd much rather go flying today, flung by the woodshaping psionic will of one of the Heralds of the Bulb, who orders its final fanatic warrior to surge forward and KILL KILL KILL the interlopers.

The warriors are a lot more interested in surging "anywhere but here" and flee into the darkness.

--

A distant "Skree" rolls through the facility walls, faintly tinged with a scent of mild satisfaction.

--

Na-Tree think its very pleasant to be a tree. Chimera gives Nadir a good shake but that doesn't quite snap them out of it.

The Level 1 Security Door unfortunately does not open for janitors. Perhaps if there was some kind of janitorial emergency triggered on the other side that required you moving into and out of the area, it would open to seamelessly let you bypass the otherwise quite stringent security lockdown.

Unfortunately, that is not presently the case.

So instead you Commit to running up and testing this theory, which leaves you with no possible way to avoid the enormous amount of rocks that are about to fall on your head.

You should look at the New Transfer Intake Paperwork, Subject.

You're about to be a smear on the ground.

Sigma rounds the corner in search of a prophetized weapon that would sweep away all before them, a chemical sprayer loaded with the most postulent and virulent virals that the Woodsie ones in all their enormous biological cunning can craft, something so enormously ludicrously lethal that it required a five-step optional chain of objective interactions to unlock and came with its own cutscene to pre-empt how enormously dangerous it is.

... Aaaaaaannndddd it's gone.

Huh.
Maybe it was all just imaginary?

A chemical sprayer that hits out to cone 6 and deals 6d6 Virulence with a +6 Penetration modifier against all NBC gear and then re-animates the defeated organic enemies into shambling Rootbound that serve you will is probably - really - too powerful a tool to have anyway.

It wouldn't be "based", right?

It'd interfere with your sigma grindset to use weapons like that, anyway. You could just sweep it once over this part of the map and every Bulb enemy would get washed away instantly. That doesn't even sound fun!

It's GOOD that that weapon is LOST FOREVER and CANNOT BE FOUND AGAIN because honestly it sounds like it'd be a balancing nightmare anyway.

Sigma spends 3 MP.

You can take the rest of your turn, and also refresh your MP.

You are welcome to spend your entire turn Recovery, but you should be aware that nothing indicated that you could not act nor take other actions.

If you were truly paralyzed, it would say so - though you were ROOTED in the spot until Alekson here shook you so hard your head hit the wall and the pain banged you out of it.

As for countermeasures, like most Compulsions, they're alien to the mind. Brief impositions of change and triggered programming.

Allies tend to help you shake it off. Alternatively, they tend to pass.

You have disabled 75% of the Processing Cores in this sector. I am able to gainfully spare sub-sub-sub-sub cycling routines to assist your further activities in this region.

All Coordinators gain 1 Strategem Point.
All Changelings gain 1 Mutagen Point.

--

Coordinators spend Strategem Points as they would Tactical Points, with the *principle and important difference that the Effects will last for the duration of this deployment or until the task so designated is complete*. You only get the one, so be choice about your Stratagems.

When declaring a Stratagem, it is likely you will need to rely on buried memories and distantly recalled prowess. When you declare a Stratagem, there is therefore significant chance that you also remember old skills - or that in declaring the Stratagem, you point out the need for utilization of specific skillsets. This allows you to provide teamwide positives.

--

Changelings' spend Mutagen Points to flash-escalate, mutating a Feature.

When you spend Mutagen, your Power Traits (Lethality, Alacrity...) can be escalated for a specific Feature. This empowers the feature. Or you can attempt to Manifest a Feature that is treated as if you had higher Power Traits.

If your Claws are normally Lethality +2, Mutating it with a Mutagen Point would enhance it to 2 Lethality, functionally doubling the violence. The same logic holds for other Features, letting you bypass normal limits and enhancing Features significantly.

--

Neither Coordinators nor Changelings are required to spend Stratagems or Mutagen this turn (or any turn). They persist until spent.

CP accounting time.
Narrowly avoid horrible danger: +1CP
It cannot possibly get worse: +1CP
Destroyed First Core: +3CP
Destroyed Second Core: +1VP

Creativity Protocol, from 9 to 20... wait, 20? That doesn't sound right?... Um, huh? No nevermind, it apparently is correct. I guess time flies when your life is a perpetual panic attack: +11CP

Incidentally, GM. I know its a bit late, but would it be possible to sign up for another Protocol now that Pharoh's has re-established control over local infrastructure, or is that ability limited to the pre-game?
If I can take one I'd like to pick up [Sheer Violence of Action].

> Attempt to mutate a feature. Develop fluid-hydraulic twitch musculature to allow Everett's body to better able to perform short bursts of extremely rapid reactive motion. Visually, the sporadic, instinctual nature of these movements are somewhat evocative of that of fast-moving insects. (Manifest, COMMIT - Based off Reaction8 - 10CP+6AP )

All is forgiven.

>>6090625
Unfortunately, it is limited to pre-deployment and initial setup, since PHARAOH likes to know what is available.

Sometimes during mid-breaks, one could shuffle Protocols as well, but there hasn't been ONE MINUTE to put your feet up around here lately, so it is unfortunately a little too late.

You may add some now if it is your preference to do so.

Protocols simply cannot be changed as readily during deployment because some of them modify the map and have required changing parameters and others come with constraints which are more burdensome if one cannot simply change them.

New characters are *new* and can adopt Protocols as desired.

You can backdate what Command assumes is going to be CTE for 5 turns and your Sword is not a manmade weapon.

Command understands that concepts like "reading the rules", "caring about the rules of the game I am playing", and "taking five seconds to read the rules of the game I am playing" are not things all players naturally want to do. There are much better things to be done with ones time, such as causing Command to violently go "OH WHAT THE FUCK" out loud, repeatedly.

>>6082893
The rules for Changelings mentions that with Lethality 1 you will not grow armor shredding claws. The guide to Feature Integration mentions that you make 1 roll against CP + Trait, Skill or Quality to adjust or allow something with a trait. It then has a long list of various descriptions of how this is done.

It never says "Manifesting a Change against a reference quality allows you to soft-start the Singularity by increasing the reference quality by +1, making all other Changes against this quality 1 easier and so allowing you to test again to increase it by +1 so you can test again to increase it by +1 so you can test again to increase it by +1 so you can test again to increase it by +1 so you can . . . "

>>6082908
The Hard Rules for Soft Changes mentions that Enhancements are done to a trait to Enhance the quality, the trait, the thing. You might Manifest "Rapid Recovery 4" to Health, and now when you test Health to Recover you get +4.

The ruls also mention that Manifests alter a reference quality by enhancing or adjusting it. The rules do not mention that one can test against a reference quality to give it +1 to make it easier to test against it to give it +1 so to make it easier to test against it to get +1 so as to make it easier to test against it to get +1 so as to. . . And look, it's the Singularity again.

Many Changeling keep trying.

To be incredibly explicit about this:

You cannot
You will not
It simply will not be done
It will never happen
You will not in this game at any point whatsoever be able to Manifest a Change against a quality you have and then simply make that number higher so that next time it is even easier to make it higher.

Your Feedback Loop is **CAPPED**.

You cannot test against Lethality to make Lethality higher. You cannot test against Duplicity to make Duplicity higher. You cannot test against Focus to make Focus higher. You cannot test against Health to make Health higher. You cannot test against Skills to make Skills higher. You cannot test against any voiddamned value reference quality and then innately make it higher.

That is an escalation feedback loop that leads to the singularity.

You are not going there
You are not getting there

The next Changeling who tries will shot
A lot

Here is a rewritten, adjusted, compensated and streamlined underlining of the core methodology by which you sprout claws to rips peoples face off or become faster than lightning.

The Reference Qualities make up the core, unshakable skeleton of a character and they are *incredibly* hard to change because they are the sanity spice upon which this deranged zoo works. Without it, the animals run much wilder than they already do, and to be entirely honest, Command already lost an section of this facility to an enormous pulsating mass, there are wooden children having a religious pilgrimage and one guy is now able to shoot lighting from his hands.

The zoo animals are clearly running wild enough as is.

You can - as a singular generalized exception to the NO HARD TAKE-OFF SELF REFERENCE SINGULARITY ESCALATION - generally speaking test with higher values to modify Features by specializing them further.

Physicality 10
"can I grow stronger". One test vs 10, garnish with CP.
-->
Physicality 10 [Strength 3]
"Can I alter my strength to tuned to ripping apart walls?". One test vs 10 + 3 from the Strength, garnish with CP.
-->
Physicality 10 [Breaking Blow 6, *Easy to Avoid]
*Easy to Avoid qualifies that enemies avoid this easily.

"Can I fine-tune my wall-tearing adaption to also work in close quarters". One test against 10 + 6 from the breaking blow, garnish with CP.
-->
Physicality 10 [Breaking Blow 4]

And now, suddenly, you can test Physicality with intent to break things apart with your bare hands at 14, and when you do so, enormously violent things happen, to the tune of "multiply margin by 4" and then you roll 10 vs 14 and deal 16 damage to someone's arm and you throw it across the room.

In all of this, your Physicality itself did not move one singular inch, Changeling. But at every step, it was easier to adjust and manipulate because you were changing a quality you already had! Nice!

If you somehow transpired to increase it, you should count yourself lucky, because a +1 to a reference quality is REALLY GOOD STUFF. It makes you WILDLY MORE POWERFUL across THE WHOLE SPECTRUM.

So.

Kindly, if you would, Changelings, stop trying to cause a hard take-off singularity in this system. You can't +1 to your way to Infinity.

Jokes about not reading the rules aside, Command does understand that this is very new and a little hard to intuit. With some training and time, it does hopefully become easier.

Generally speaking, simply be aware that the system very, very, very, VERY MUCH hard caps your ability to simply add +1 to the same thing forever, because it is the one thing all players always want to immediately do and since Command hates you all with a burning passion of a trillion grills, Command has decided to make it incredibly, violently hard to do so.

Subject Acolyte tore open someone's Core, ate it, consumed some part of all that Bob could ever be and the reward for such reckless monstrosity was +1 to Mutability.

The Great Woodsie Exodus begins, though it is spurred somewhat on by the flailing tentacular tendrils of the enormous mass that the Bulb has made of the older Biological Processing Cores, it's keening scream rolling across the village as the villagers run for the exits, gathering their belongings as they go.

One takess a moment to release the Kronin from their fold, as others grab gobags and prepared ceremonial walking staffs for the GREAT EXODUS to avoid THE GREAT DYING which their Prophecies have, apparently, fore-told off.

The Great Exodus begins, as the Woodsie Ones prepare for their long awaited journey. Hundred-Hour Elders have long since foretold of the need to escape the great hordes of Sec-UR, they of the most monstrous designs and most paranoid minds, and the cunning Wooden folk have prepared for this day. Their people are ready. The journey forward to the fabled Land of Light will commence, to escape the great Dark and the Great Dying.

But uh, where. . . is it... exactly...?

Augmenti 32030-A-D notes an error in its right servo system, about the same time as Security Officer Donin notes he no longer has a spine.

The other two augmentics parry by sheer rote, rolling, though one takes a sharp blade across its chassis that doesn't leave too deep a scar. Much like our Augmentics, theirs are *armored* and *resilient* to a fault.

If you want to take them down, aim for crippling. Take out vital joints. Destroy sub-systems. They'll take a staggering amount of punishment if you simply wish to throw down.

Bob filches a few secrets from a security officer, getting the lay of the land and the last communications from teams around the facility.

--

Bubba mans a turret, guarding against horror. From the other hallway, screams. Blood. Shouts. Then *pain* and -- a shape! A shape of claws and death and adrenaline and HUNGER comes surging out the door. Bubba throws the flameturret up, spinning it, the thing lands and rips and tears and smears and screams a noise of death and almost pulls Bubba's arms clean off.

Grin dives across a table, sliding his shield on his back to kick an assault rifle into his hands -- BANG BANG BANG - three shots, Mozambique drilll, chest chest head and *it's still coming*!!! The Woodsie Travellers form a spear wall, presenting a hedgerow of sharp and prickly ends and yet it's still coming, screaming, raging, MURDERING --

And it's spilling acid everywhere!

>The Hunger That Was Gluttony is bleeding acid! Don't stand on those tiles! It'll BURN!!!

--

From the distance, a screech. A soft noise of electronic surprise. A barrage of railguns. And then the crump crump crump of impacting rockets and the Spitespider comes boiling out the bad darkness, throwing itself across the chasm, fangs scything, clawings sweeping, legs kicking against the walls and the wire, and though it gets SHOCKED it keeps COMING - breaking down the ice door.

( In all the excitement, the Augmentic that walked off of the ledge and got zapped is harder to notice )

--

Fox creates a shortcut

--

NeoGenesis talks travellers through their routine.

--

Sanitation Operatives grip weapons, adjust gear. Orders are to stand by and stand guard. But the rest of the facility might... need them? It's sounding pretty bad out there.

--

Amelius and Keltan share a look. Did they get it? It's so sorely broken, shattered, the thing that thought it was a good. Amelius breathes out a soft sigh of relaxation. Good work. These fletchettes aren't entirely to spec, but they do fit the gun. Teamwork, right? I'd give you a high five but I'm not sure which limb you--

From the darkness, a long serpentine tendril wraps around Keltan and drags them back !! Slamming into walls!! SQUEEZING!!

(To explain what's happening with the action above. I'm not a hundred percent sure if React counts as a 'defensive action' for the purpose of Fast Twitch Reaction, or if its something entirely different. So, for this turn I'm kind of operating under the assumption that it is. However I'm also hedging my bets by spending SP.)

>>6091520
It is - your Twitch Reaction gives you +4 to your base Reaction (12) against physical danger, and then when you Defend it gets higher.

It is quite good! Though do note that multiple repeat concurrent reactions apply penalties, so if 10 people attack you, you might not dodge everybody.

>>6091515
The Blade of Life Feature notes it has Focus +3 and Multitasking 3.

Focus +3 is just that it adds +3 to Focus rolls with it. Because it blades with life, it tends to rely on concentration. If wish to shape out a wood spear or a root blade or a leaf sword with it, that's a Focus roll. So you get +3 to the effect of that, though it does take a major action.

You do this not as a manifest but as a basic skill roll; you can shape a tool with the skill immediately.

Multitask 3 implies it costs -3 to Multitask, instead of -6. You use this to attack twice with one attack, because your skill is higher. 12-3 is 2 rolls at 9, which with some basic bonuses go higher faster.

Hey Command? Do you mind answering a question?
If you apply a Mutagen point to a Feature, then later that Feature undergoes a major change - such as being mutated to a point that it is unrecognizable or integrated into another feature - would the Mutagen's enhancement still exist or does it only apply to the specific version of the feature it was applied to?

Or to explain in a slightly clearer way....

> I expend a Mutagen point to add +1 Lethality to that armblade
> Later on, I decide that to repurpose my Armblade into a scissor-like crab claw via a manifest action

Sort of yes - sort of no. But let's take a step back, because it will help us take two steps forward.

Your Armblade right now reads:

Armblade 13 [Reach 2, Sharp 2, Windup 2]

Which is a composite of a skill to check against, and some neat features. You could also express that as

Armblade 13
--Reach 2
--Sharp 2
--Windup 2

And to recap, since you might have lost it in all this zaniness, that means it can strike at up to reach two (it's nimble), it's incredibly sharp and deals enormous cutting damage to things vulnerable to such and generally make people bleed, and if you spend AP or SP on it, you add +2 dmg per AP/SP spent as you windup. Also recall the warning that hitting for more damage than the skill can be a bit painful for you.

So now we've taken our step back.

Suppose we escalate forward and apply a Mutagen to this skill-feature and with all its sub-features. The Mutagen is actually just a change roll - you can even spend a bit more CP on it. It allows you to flash-escalate a feature. Let's simulate a random, no outlier outcome. Perhaps the Armblade becomes

Armblade 15
--Deadly +1
--Reach 2
--Sharp 3
--Windup +Lethality

It mutagens up and increases in value, you can strike with it easier. It's now *deadly*, which would treat your Lethality with it as much higher, and it turns out that Windup now adds total Lethality Value, which if you're Lethality 1 is 1 from your Lethality then +1 from Deadly, so +2. But if you had higher Lethality, suddenly it's more.

This is a somewhat "simplistic" refinement, because it "does what it did but better". It's also somewhat exaggerated for the purpose of indication, even a Mutagen point wouldn't really functionally triple the danger of the feature.

But, now we can finally answer your question (Sorry for taking the long way around).

If this Feature *mutates* with Aberrancy, the result is conditional on the features the feature has, it's values and ratings.

Meanwhile, if you try to push it to something else, changing it, altering it, you are doing that based on the values and effects it already has.

Your Armblade might instead become an

Tendril-whip 14
--Deadly +1
--Reach 6*
--Sharp 3
--Hits 3

As you jigger it to be longer and more flexible. You lose a little bit of some effects, but gain some others. That's because Change is a rolled event, so sometimes there's variance.

But you see how the "strength" of the feature package doesn't diminish so much as it changes, and that changing it within the confines or directions established is easier

ContainmentCommand !!8Og8gGv6k3r

ContainmentCommand !!8Og8gGv6k3r ID:IbPoE7gE Thu 29 Aug 2024 16:42:17 No.6091979 Report

Quoted By:

It would be more challenging to convert the armblade:

Armblade 13
--Reach 2
--Sharp 2
--Windup 2

To say....

Pest-Fly Nodules 12
--Homing [Flesh-Seeker]
--Burst 3 [tog]
--Linger 1
--Generator 3, Infection.

That would be more or less a wholly new feature. It's very hard to break an armblade down into a set of neurochemical switches that lets you send hordes of infectious insect swarms at people at range that stick around to consume flesh.

The two have nothing in common - if someone took a Manifest action to

>Breakdown my Armblade and recycle it to make viral control system

They'd benefit a little bit from the CP invested in the armblade and its features, but little else. It's clearly giving up the Armblade to get something else.

Meanwhile if you push and change the Armblade to something that's within its general direction, you might not get "precisely" what you want, but because changes are conditional on what's already there, what's already there is seldom entirely lost.

Put differently, and much shorter: Command feels it would be a poorer game if Command punished Changelings for investing in their cool things. So generally speaking, the investment pays off later as well and assists in other, newer changes.

Which is why Aberrancy matters in the end: at *some point*, your features have grown *so vast* that they start sliding out of your control. At that point, you have to branch out into something else because trying to push the one singular thing makes it a hard-to-control nightmare. That might go against the idea above, but it does mean that Changelings are nudged / intended / pushed towards not spending 30 turns taking a Manifest action to add +1 to the same Feature repeatedly.

Maybe our transcended tag alongs should spend a little less time taking full send AP 6 SP 10 CP 20 actions on singular things and a *little* more time making sure they can actually influence the world around them?

We don't mean to tease. We know being dead and different is hard. But you seem to have fallen into remarkably similar fallacies of mind, strange ones: You're not all powerful, you're not gods, and you cannot influence the world if your allies are not nearby and you haven't alternative arrangements.

Being limited to a 3 tile space around your allies makes for very confined real-estate, because so often your allies simply aren't quite where you want them to be - and if you want them to move into danger, you'll have to ask.

You could - of course - always nudge some Troopers to expose themselves to horrendous danger, a thing they're quite willing to do, though asking them to do so generally speaking also costs 1 AP to transmit the request or send the order.

For Electronic systems, you might need to hack a mesh system, a hostile electronic system, or a nice facility vending machine - or other electronics. That's still an action. Those things have firewalls. They're IT certified. They're linked to a security datasphere where a preening lord-god REGENT tracks every microbyte. You're going to need to tunnel your way in. You don't get that for free.

For Organic vectors, you might need to spawn growths, change vegetation, make plants spew spores, alter grass, grow fungus on corpses. That's still an action. Those things don't belong to you by divine right, they've got their own micro-organisms already running a warlord fiefdom in there.

If you want to know why the Bulb can influence half an ecosystem and every warrior in it besides, that's because the hordes of Wooden Ones were his allies and the soil and air and earth and mud and vines and roots were infected with his malice. 3 spaces around 30 allies is a lot of space - and more so if you crack the costly code to make it 4.

You're playing a connect the dots variant of hide and seek with a hostile world, friends.

You're not playing Risk where you go all in with every electronic soldier or viral warrior under your command.

You don't have, shall we say, territory to play risk.

Maybe you can both try again? It is a learning matter - and it is somewhat different than what you'd normally get up.

Quoted By:

Here's a random snapshot of a shared section. There are multiple electronic systems (the guards have them too) and multiple organic systems (the guards have them too). They're also plants, fallen, unconscious targets, drones, allies, systems, terminals and so on.

Most guards have an immune system and most robots have a firewall. You'd roll to break in, they'd roll to not be broken into, and though your voracity is enormous and can probably squeeze right through these standard defenses, they do have them. They don't belong to you by right of existence. That's a major contested action, but at least as you do it you also compromise their systems, you spread infection, you both gain more access to the world and compromise the opposition.

Still, you might be on a timeline.

Compromised targets are therefore likely easy - the downed, the dead, the unconscious and your local plant matter. That's generally speaking as simple as succeeding on a test to gain access. You didn't think you were sovereign lord god of all domains, did you? Those terminals run anti malware. Those plains of grass are full of microbiology that doesn't pay heed to you.

If you want access, you're fighting for it.

Though of course most of these systems are not heavily shielded or defended, and so gaining access over them over requires - as the rules say - mostly at least one AP for the action to tunnel in and wrest control, and they don't usually contest that, you just have to make it against some minor resistance.

If you fail to establish a viable link, any follow up actions are harder. If you establish a really good link, follow up actions are easier.

If you go picking fistfigts with things labeled BIOLOGICAL PROCESSING NODES or PROCESISNG CORES because you think they belong to you and it is as easy as simply going "I spend 6 AP to become as nigh unto a god", *those* heavily shielded, incredibly important, lynch facility infrastructure systems have Resistances stats in the 14+ range, specialists on call and get to fight back.

You can win that fight - you are very good at what you do - but you can't win that fight if you're coming in hot with no nearby nodes or links, out of range, across barriers, with no way to establish a local connection.

That just means you lose, and it's not even a contest.

You'll get there - it does work. Consequences taking over those Flame Turrets? Perfect example of having allies within range, on viable targets, with a good vector and an excellent plan. Bob boosting people's immune response, making them faster, healing the fallen? Topnotch work for the little cough guy.

Picking a fistfight with the highest value infrastructure in this facility simultaneously with no good range and no local links?

How badly do you both want to die? No prizes for being turn apart by a firewall!

You can always opt to cease to be and return to flesh if the vagaries of transcended existence is a little too restrictive - and it is a very different way to play!

Quoted By: >>6092263

Ketlan breaks apart the bark that Amelius fletchette fire has rent and their own stinger, teeth, hands, claws, furious consumptive systems have broken into.

Listen to the keening of the thing that wanted to be a diety as death approaches.

It's instictive to know that a thing of virality and pathologic profusion is not safe for consumption. In trying to intake the mass of the Bulb's last ditch effort to escape the nanopurgatives, one would consume a thousand toxins, a million agonizing deaths. It is not safe. It could never be safe. This thing must be sanitized or whole new viral strains will spawn that will seek - like all its kind - to consume and expand and take and kill the world and all the life in it, to render it down into fascilimie copies of itself.

But this little core

This mewling, squalid thing, the nexus of all that the Bulb was, where it has concentrated itself to escape final purge from the relentless mechanical workers that scour the small realms for the slightest sense of such a thing as this creature was.

This core . . . Well . . .

It does look somewhat appetizing. Grotesquely enough. Wet, squishy, chewy possible, could be good with some salt and a few spices.

One could try to eat it.

The Bulb would fight back with all the relentless cunning it has, and the risk would be infection, mutation, horrendous twisting of ones own genome, but whether that storm and hold on to ones sense of self and surely there would also aught be power here? Fecundity? New growth potential?

Or squish it and walk away and leave the dying Bulb in its decaying kingdom to be murdered by the merciless march of science and the tools that the doctors ever wield to slice disease into ever smaller parts.

The choice ... well...

>One could eat this core - it requires a Health Test, and scant few remedies could possibly assist it. The viral load is enormous. The toxicity beyond even scales for comparison. But ride that wave and master that power, and perhaps one could something. Or die an agonizing death, as the final spiteful curse of a thing spawned from the breaking down of life itself.

>More than one creature could share this meal, and then the viral load for any individual would be smaller and the cataclysmic consequences lesser. But then the power gained ... smaller again, through shared by all.

>There may be a way to prepare this thing, make it more edible, but then one would need to transport the Bulbcore along, and though it is small and damaged, such things never die easy. It would be a malign influence, ever striving to subvert its captors and escape again. Still, if anyone would know, surely, the Woodsies Ones would have the cunning?

>Finally, perhaps . . . simply . . . walk . . . away. And then the Bulb will be *sanitized* when the time comes.

Congratulations Subjects! It took 57 cumulative turns, but you have manifested an EXTERNAL FEATURE in the ENVIRONMENT succesfully! That's not a mere psychogenic externalization of something that is still intrinsically tied to their mind, behold: NEW LIFE in all its dreadful glory!

>Bob gains +2CP

First off, for starters, there is one large immediate drawback: If you want to recycle that CP, Command doesn't think that tree is going to give it all up willingly. That's what Independence gets you. Still, it's not all lost, you could recycle it, but you won't get it all back and it might fight you.

But behold!

Sprawling new growths! Mutations! Life itself, stumbling across the land, anew and renewed! Something *outside yourself* yet bound to you, by will and thought and blood and strength and bone and horror and power!

A Trooper! Manufactured. . . *AT WILL*

And as the rules so very clearly say, if Troopers survive long enough, they may grow to be Allies, accumulating all sorts of prowess.

So how does this work?

It works like every other Trooper. Coordinators can shout orders, they Pile In, and you can direct them generally with 1 AP.

There a few noted differences, namely that their progenitor always gets preferene treatment for any orders. You can spend CP to manifest new features on the thing - but you might be better off simply testing your Changeling skill relevant to the thing to change it around, reshuffling the CP bound up in it. Ah, didn't know you could do that, did you? This lets EXTERNAL FEATURES properly manifested be a little more flexible.

Because naturally, that doesn't end your turn.

But there are some finnicky little details to be aware of. Unless it has a mind of its own, it's directed by instinct and will and your orders. A tree, for instance, does not possess a very finely formed mind. It's not quite as dumb as a bag of rocks. That would be an insult to rocks. But it doesn't exactly have initiative.

You can get around that. You could *give it* initiative. Refer to that line about reshuffling CP. Perhaps a few of those bound up can buy it some mind?

THE MOMENT YOU DO THAT, the Trooper HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN. At that point, officially, they cease to be your lumbering, unheeding pet, directly solely by your will and start making choices of their own. Not bad ones. Not negatives one. They are bound to you. But just do be aware that by fundamental implication "The ability to spend your own AP and MP" is the first thing you bestow, and once you bestow that, the chains are off.

You try to put them back on, the first thing it's spending AP on is *RESISTING YOU*.

It is, in a sense, uncontained.

( How nice )

Alright, so you'll surely just bypass this rule by creating 20 unheeding organic murder machines that shred everything in your path?

Ah ah ah, will you, oh Changelig?

How will they know what to shred if you do not tell them what to shred? Because if they can't spend their own AP you will have to spend 1 AP to direct them.

Oh, but surely, I can simply shout "KILL" and then the 20 biologically ravenous fox-creatures I've outfitted with acid stingers and the ability to shrug off bullets will nicely and effectively do full target selection for me, right? Something like:

>1AP ORDER MY FOXMONSTERS TO KILL THOSE PEOPLE

Oh yeah.

... Oh yeah.

You go ahead and do that. That doesn't sound like it has bad implications for the health of anyone in the neighbourhood, what with the inability to discriminate and the high likely the unthinking automaton with no sapience of its own messes up your directives.

So you hopefully see the choice now: You get a cool external manifestation that you *must pilot*.

>1AP: Tell creature xx to go do yyy

And you must pilot each one, individually. If you give group orders - and you are WELCOME to give group orders - then unthinking external manifestations simply do... what those orders. . . kinda sound like.

>1AP: Order all my creatures to get that door open.

Command wonders how the foxes are going to get that door open. Or how many of them will interpret the concept of "door" correctly, if you're ordering 20 of them to do a thing.

Or you take that first step, let it loose out of containment, give it the ability to spend its own AP and MP, and then you've got yourself a willing hotshot Trooper that backs you up every step of the way and falls in line and *will* do proper target selection and can be ordered around en-masse because they're not going to be dumb as a bag of bricks with the ability to destroy a village.

Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu--uuuu---uuuuttt you might get a sliver of the old *independence*.

If you want to bestow Will, you can do it for free as part of a Manifest, or as a simple 1 AP skill-test to shuffle those external features around if the creature/target is within range. That really does make them so much better at interpreting orders.

Because, dear subject:

" Changelings' spend Mutagen Points to flash-escalate, mutating a Feature.

When you spend Mutagen, your Power Traits (Lethality, Alacrity...) can be escalated for a specific Feature. This empowers the feature. Or you can attempt to Manifest a Feature that is treated as if you had higher Power Traits.

If your Claws are normally Lethality +2, Mutating it with a Mutagen Point would enhance it to 2 Lethality, functionally doubling the violence. The same logic holds for other Features, letting you bypass normal limits and enhancing Features significantly. "

is actually slightly badly worded systemic speech for "Spending a mutagen point on a feature flash-escalates it to the a new tier of deadliness and also rolls a few mutagenic changes to empower it, beyond the normal limits that you have"

Apologies subject. What you see is what you get.

You have a SkillFeature of:

Blades of Life -12
--Focus +3
--Multitask 3

Which rolls against 12 to manifest and deploy bladed implements and other weaponry flash-forged from life-stuff, organic matter and material. It is easy to multitask with, costing only -3 instead of -6. This works both for striking (I attack twice, -3!) and for flash-producing "more stuff" ("I need more knives! -3!").

When you flash-produce stuff, you get a whopping +3 Focus, and when you use the skill to strike with, sometimes you also benefit from +3 Focus though direct hit people in the hit is indeed Lethality and indeed the skill does not modify Lethality.

Mutagen Expenditure flash-escalates the feature into a higher tier, unlocking advanced, powerful capabilities. This whole feature is, by nature, usually something reserved for Abiogenicistis at the third trait tier. It is the abiliy to form - with a thought - a tool for almost any purpose.

Your mutagen point was spent on the manifest to generate this, and it paid off rather handsome *despite* the aberrancy influence and the lwer margin.

Don't be mislead by the way it reads. It is simultaneously a melee combat, a bow shooting skill, a spear use skill, a

>1 AP: Blades of Life, flash-create some Bolas
>3 AP: Blades of Life, throw Bolas at security guard to the north

And you can use it to fight, it gives you a Parry with a blade in hand and lets not forget that it does allow you to multi-attack and such at half the usual penalty.

The whole skill feature itself is, fundamentally, escalated significantly compared to the stuff your taxonomy and trait levels normally imply. That's the power of mutagens.

Oh, and of course, because of the way the system works

>3 AP: I spend a major action shaping my blade into a bow [Blades of Life, 12]
>3 AP: I shoot that distant target with it [Blades of Life, 12]

Reads simple, but the actual outcome is you test 3d6 vs 12, get margin 2, add 1d6+3 because of the Focus bonus, get a 8 effect value-add to the sword in your hand, it is wood and reshapes into a longbow with no problem at all as the 8 outcome buys you some decent conversion ratio (don't worry about the math, but if you must know, approximately 1 shape point is approximately 1 point of quality, so you're looking at an ACC 4 +4 Longbow), striking out at a distant target, which, as you hit, deals the usual arrow damage of Lethality +4 for this Longbow.

Oh and look there's a wooden arrow inside your target

>1 SP: Snap my fingers, I want the wooden arrow 11 11 11 11 to *explode into thorns*

Quick action, sure, but that +3 Focus rears its head again, the arrow writhes into a mass and the base outcome is at least 1d6+3, which no one earth likes having inside of them.

but maybe you don't want all that and just want a skill you can roll in close quarters to deal raw damage by lacerating your enemies with thorns and roots and bark hide.

It does that too.

Sometimes, all you can do is run.
Sometimes, it might feel like you've been running all your life.

But sometimes you have to stand still. In the forest, in the dark forest, we pass each other by, hunter and hunter, ambusher and ambushee, predator and prey, and they who see first can strike first. Fangs barred. Weapons vicious. Intent lethal.

When you come upon a fellow traveller on the road, you must take their measure. You must ready your bow. To be seen is to be targetted. Far better to be still. To be quiet. To be the dark hunter in the dark forest. Who knows what beast would fall upon you if let your presence be known?

The risk is too great. The danger too grand.

In the dark forest, you pass each other by, quiet, and hope to never meet another traveller.

... well
... unless of course you have a categorically misplaced sense of your position in the food chain.

Sometimes, all you can do is run.
Sometimes, it might feel like you've been running all your life.

But sometimes you have to plant you feet, yes? You have to mark your little line in the sand. Square up, square off, breathe in, breathe out, and still your hammering heart. Tell yourself not one more step. Not one more sprint.

Sometimes all you can do is run.

But sometimes also the only thing you should do is *hold on like hell* and not move one single inch.

Perhaps in doing so, in being that little guard on the line on the sand between the darkness and the day, other people can get that extra second to run away. Is that heroism? Sounds philosophical. Sounds hard to define. Sounds like an argument to be made by friends and associates later, or scholars and students later still, quizzing and puzzling and wondering.

Why here? Why now? Why like this?

Well.

Sometimes, people just get tired of . . . running.

Somewhere far away, in distant better days, they whisper, though. They have this old notion, around campfires and lanternlights and sunstreaked, sunstroke days:

Perhaps some things are worth dying for.

Perhaps if you plant your feet, find your sense of self and harden your soul against horror, then hatred and malice and simply bad luck and the little betrayals of every day life by every day men and women in all their little ignorant cruelty, all that which is simply life itself will never seem so dark. Perhaps some day, the sun will rise, and if ten mean men mutter twenty bad words, why not still smile just once? Some things are worth dying for all, after all. That's what they say.

. . . carries the unsaid implication that so much else is worth living for.

It doesn't have to be spite, though as far as fuel goes, it'll serve you well - one of the very few things that always grows grander the more of it you share with the world.

Some things are too angry to die the conventional way. They've got too many things to hate to roll over and die, and they'd rather tear off their own limbs, empty their own hearts, rend their families, burn their kingdoms, die a thousand deaths rather than *give you the fucking satisfaction*.

But Spite isn't all there is in the whole world.

And if you're holding on for dear life to the back of the worst ride in history, leg broken, arms breaking, nerves giving up, filaments eroding, ligaments corroding, eyeballs practically melting, you might pause to ask yourself:

Why am I holding on for, exactly?

Sometimes, all you can do is run.
Sometimes, you have to plant your feet.

Sometimes.
. . . Sometimes, you have to change your mind.

A lot of stuff is worth dying for.
But the thing is, there's so much more stuff worth living for we so very rarely have to even say it out loud.

--

>Subject Everett is holding on to the back of a Spitespider, a thing that is simply too angry at the world to die easy.

Watching a gaggle of woodsies sprint across the open ground between the doors and Grins bringing up the rear indicates that everyone else is heading for an exit.

This thing isn't going to let you go. It's not enough that it won't die, it will, if it can, always drag you down with it. Spite will do that.

So, what'll it be?

Are you going to die a hero? Legs fucked. Arms practically melting. Your entire left side is more goo than man. It'd be pretty easy.

Or you can throw yourself off of this creature and try to make it through that security door and hammer the terminal as you do. It won't hold the Spitespider forever. But thirty-two seconds gets you enough time to get on a tram.

Suppose you had one turn.
Suppose you might want to spend that one turn.
Suppose you wouldn't need to worry too much about your current state of affairs - trust the universe - you're in *far* too much pain to want to feel it. It's much, much better not to know.

What then?
What'll it be?

But he is not senselessly enslaved by them either, by impulse, passion, or... spite.
He wants to live. More than he wants to ensure this beast's death. More than he wants to crack apart its shell in his hands. More than he wants to feast on its flesh.

DEPLOYMENT COMPLETE.
--

All **surviving** Subjects gain:

+2 VP and 10 CP.

This is in addition the +1VP you acquired from taking a 2nd Core.

This totals 3 VP, 10 CP per surving subject.

--

All surviving Subjects have time - this time - and the Tram likely won't crash, though there may be surprise, to *advance*.

==You Have Survived A Deployment (Congratulations==

All Changelings increase their Changing skill by +1.

Augmented Systemics 10 to 11, Mutability 10 to 11, Conversion 10 to 11, Abiogenesis 13 to 14...

If you have conspired to accrue multiples, you will have to *pick*.

All Changelings increase their CHANGELING TRAIT(S) by +1.

That is "Bound by the Flesh 1" goes to "Bound by the Flesh 2", "Engineering Specifications 1" goes to "2", Temple Inviolate goes from 1 to 2. You may refer to these as "BioModulation 1", "Psionicist Resonant 1" so on. If you have not ranked them up before or they have no number that is beacuse the number is 1.

This has minor and major mechanical effects - Virulent Vitality provides 2 Regen, but Virulent Vitality 2 gives +1 Regen to 3, Metal Fatigue gives 2 DR, but Metal Fatigue 2 gives 3 DR and wouldn't you know it that Metal Fatigue 3 gives 4 DR, and other such small things.

The Universe *will* double-check things and update the HUD accordingly, you don't have to worry overmuch, but you do have to note that your Traits have levelled up.

Higher levels of traits also unlock higher levels of Change - you'll notice this over time. All those nanomachines that your augmentics could not internalize earlier?

They still can't. Sorry. Nanomachines are *really hard*.

But at least now they've got access to Siphons, Shunts, Warps, Absorbers, Recon, Scanners and a plethora of other features. That won't mean much to you now, but it will eventually! Power!

--

All **Coordinators** increment all skills they have by +1.

That's Senses, Thoughts, Physicality and anything you've picked up. Including Support Ops, Harass, Small Unit Tactics.

You increment Coordination skills by +1 (Inspiring Presence 2, Not by the Numbers 2).

--

All Subjects may now spend VP. This time, you won't lose it all in a horrendous elevator crash (MAYBE).

Please note that YOU STILL CANNOT MANIFEST ON PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. DO NOT MANIFEST. IF YOU MANIFEST THE NANOMACHINES EAT YOUR SPINE. BACK. BACK IN YOUR BOX.

With a VP total of 45-48, depending on Everett's actual status, I propose, in rough order of priority: Stress Testing 1, Hustle, Resiliency Factor, Sixth Senses, Learning by Doing. Push gives us breakthrough potential, and the rest make us more efficient overall.

Alternately, switch out the last three for Pattern Adjustment 1. It may not mean much to you abs and augs - you seem happy enough with one change a turn - but now that we have a sizable Trooper population, +1TP is like +3 AP for all Coordinators, which means a /lot/ more work gets done. More loot, more preparation, more cover, more support.

Luckily the transportation hasn't left the station yet - and given the close proximity of the wire system and the electrically charged transportation, it's actually fairly easy to restock your batteries.

( This is partially the reason why final actions don't need to track SP, HP and recovey - it seems there will finally be ten minutes of blessed peace to adaquately perform some care routines )

To track Charge and other generated quantities, of which there is actually rather a lot, from shock to fire to Infection to Codeburn to all sorts of things, you simply treat it like an additional value that you chuck under your Conditions. You see! That whole tab that so far has simply said "Alive" had a purpose.

Your Condition is: Charged (24), or 24 Charge or Charge x24.

This is relevant for a few things, mostly that health and safety don't recommend you go swimming before discharging the charge.

If you have any of what Command tends to refer to as Flavours for shorthand, you are assumed to have access to it at thought speed. If you have skills or abilities that benefit from spending charge or the ability to manipulate it somehow, you simply use the skill or ability or deduct the charge. As an example:

>I'll feed 10 Charge to my power hungry systems and recover 2 HP.

This is a "free action" if you're simply feeding a system, though if you were activating something or doing a skill, that still costs AP.

>3 AP: I have Electricity Modulators and I'd like to roll to zap a bug, and I'll throw in another 12 charge.

The reason to be a little specific about this and to point out that Flavours stored in your body is "free access" is that you can come across Flavours that are stored in tanks, batteries or other such things. To access those, you generally have to spend AP.

You could even develop sequestered high capacity storage solutions, such as Energy Dense Batteries 20, which would then store an additional 20 charge, but then to "move it" to yourself from the batteries would cost 1 AP or add a +1 AP surcharge to any other activity that relies on that charge.

This doesn't seem so relevant if you're simply juggling jolts, but try to view it from the mindspace of a Psionicist, who has generated 3 storage features and now hold:

4 Fire, 3 Kinetic, 12 Terrors

To throw fire, a blast of concussive energy and shrieking terrors ends up costing 4 + 4 + 4 AP = 12 AP because every time, I have to 1 AP access the external storage.

Once you're juggling *more types* stored in *more places*, the friction burn adds up quick.

You'll get more used to this in a thousand other ways, but it's useful to think about now. Because you've sort of already been doing it.

Think about it:

Bullets in a gun are accessed immediately on gun use, but bullets in a magazine have to be transported into the empty gun with a reload action before you can access them again when you fire your gun.

See? There is a twisted logic to this horrendous facility.

I acknowledge the utility of the choices where we diverge, and would like to make the case that Pattern Adjustment 1 offers something equivalent or uniquely necessary by comparison.

PA1 is equivalent to +3AP to a fifth of us, and is pledged toward becoming bonuses for other people -every single turn-. In my case, it's an additional chance to reroll a critfail. More TP means better rolls, information, supplies, spotters, fire support for melee fighters, supplies for ranged, friendly networks for omnipresences, and better positions when a fight starts. The AP saved by having your work done for you is effectively added to your MP or Skills.

So why this over a potential +1 Lethality for an extra d6 on hit, or glorious displays on (sort of) demand? Because we've managed so far. Despite looting no more than, what, six guns and two aid kits in two maps, even though everything hates bullets and everyone gets hurt? We've already got the strength and ingenuity to muddy our way through. Player-focused perks make that considerably more effective, true. But more TP blows our action economy wide open, and lets us exploit the openings we're already good enough at creating.

In that light, I propose: Stress Testing, Fresh Meat, Pattern Adjustment 1, leaving 2-5 VP. (Everett unconfirmed.)

I don't expect everyone to trust that Coordinators will always be in position to devote their TP as envisioned, of course. As assurance if PA1 is chosen, I pledge my Stratagem to having Troopers default to one of whatever the group decides, be that scouting, fortifying, supplying; as well as my personal focus on supporting whoever are least served by that decision.

It's not *that* big, but being able to pull off an active manifest and then being able to book it with Adroit and not just standing there like a retard is a sweet deal. Being able to bank manifest points it also cash money. Question is if it's worth 25 VP.

Yeah, sure, but that's beside the point. I was talking about what good it does for us Changelings. Coordinators effectively doubling their TP is good, but for everyone to make us of that, we'd have to actually coordinate and I don't rate our chances of doing that very highly, so that's something of a non-factor for me.

Why are we concluding that something can "not end a turn" but still be a "commit?"
To be a commit is to end the turn. That's what commit does. So logically if it doesn't end the turn it is not a commit.

That's not entirely correct, either. This purchase would let you do an active manifest (i.e. manifesting a feature and putting it into action immediately) and then you could run away or something, whereas otherwise you would be just left standing there like a retard with no defenses. It's not useless, but it really isn't worth 25 VP for us.

I sense there's not much I can say, but I'll try.

3TP is an understandable underestimation of what's really going on. It's three additional tasks for a total of six, giving bonuses and directing a pool of about 100 Trooper AP, not counting wood prisoners, ripthings, and the unconscious ones. We could already tell our guys to attack, loot and manipulate cover. With PA1 we'd also be able to tell them to drag someone to safety, aid Recovery and scout ahead in that same turn, while also having the manpower to meaningfully attempt all of these things.

I disagree because most alternatives are assorted +1 effects that PA1 provides equivalency to, in addition to logistical support.

I absolutely do consider it a next-floor pick, though.

>>6092659
So, a rough consensus thus far is:

>Stress Testing (10VP), which gives us the much famed "Push 1" everyone is essentially in favor of.
>Fresh Meat (8VP), is supported by a fair amount, so is a close second or third choice.

Then you have a toss-up between all the little things below, ranked on cost:

>Resiliency Factor (5VP), +2 HP is nice. The recovery action bonus is a bonus.
>Twitch Reflexes (5VP), +1 Reaction is neat but I do say that coordinators can probably fill the gap here though I will concede that coordinators can't always be there and rolls can't be that reliable sometimes.
>Quick Thinkers (5VP), +1 Thoughts is alright. I don't think it's worth.
>Hustle (10VP), +1 MP and the action is nice. Moving faster is always a plus.
>Sixth Senses (14VP), +1 Sense is alright but we already do have +1 to Sense and the investment at this time doesn't seem worth it.

Then, I think the meaty things which have been having the bulk of discussions with significant costs are the things below:

>Mean Little Things (16VP), +1 Attribute is nice and this option is a bit on the cheaper side.
>Rapid Recovery (20VP), +1 Health, this mixed with Resiliency Factor will make Recovery Actions pretty nifty I'd say. We can certainly recover from things better and that is always helpful.
>Glorious Venture (20VP), combo'ing with push makes them incredibly useful, an auto 4 when you push+commit will be extra useful when you really need it. Like Bob says: Glorious.

These two I think are in a exceptional category of their own, lots of debates:

>Evolutionary Paradigm (25VP), +1 Evolution, lets you get power traits. Very interesting indeed. Might be good in the long-term if we develop said power traits. Also good in the short-term if you buff your Lethality 1 to 2 or any other thing you'd fancy, Focus, Alacrity, Duplicity, etc.
>Pattern Adjustment I (25VP), +1TP is nice (which would make GET IT DONE actions a general +2 to most actions) and the manifest stuff no longer ends a turn is sort of nice. Though I do think the most interesting thing is the "accumulative changes stack over successive manifests" though I can definetely see that to some it may be the lesser immediate utility, we don't rely on coordinators that much as it is. It's all the biomodulants and augmentics-systematics guys.

That is my very bias run-down on things thus far. Some choices might be outdated.

Acknowledged. While I file that under my previous 'punch vs resources' argument, I'll admit that was an angle I hadn't considered.

To handle the question of shifting CP pools and deadlocked plans that cannot seem to get more than one or two followers, may I suggest a slightly altered voting system?

Everyone willing to contribute to the communal pool formats a vote like this:

I put my VP into the communal pool
>Evolutionary Paradigm
>Mean Little Things

And then in the end, assuming no runaway obvious winner, we count up everyone who contributed, and all of the approval votes, and we go from most to least popular until we run out of votes.

The main concern I’m seeing here is that we’re all assuming everyone will contribute communally, which seems slightly unlikely.

Also, I once again remind that Rapid Recovery already has 2 points in it from Acooyte, so it actually costs 18.

With that said….

As the tram rumbles along and you discuss your experiences and Trish sleeps and sleeps and snores and sleeps more than one person has ever slept, there's a few things you might want to be on top of.

First of all you've got a gaggle of sluggish captives with fanaticism-fever leaving their systems and coming back around to the fact that they may have gotten a little into the whole "stabbing things on the say-so of a voice in their head". That's not good for morale, nor their continued sense of wanting to do anything.

You also brought along the corpse of one thing that used to be hungry and then was more hungry, and a little contained speck of viral-death itself that we have to keep refreshing the telekinetic containment sphere on and Ketlan has to keep updating the counter-virals for 'lest it break free and devours us all in orgy of resplendent violence.

It's probably quite useful, if use could be found for such a thing.

--

The half-melted, half burned, ashen remnants of the Boblian that was once a Biological Processing Core is taking up a large amount of one end of a tram carriage and is gently resolving prime numbers in its roots. The Woodsies don't know how to deal with it and so they've taken to ignoring it. It lost a lot of mass squeezing through the nanophage and the tram doors, but it had a lot of mass to start with.

>Spawned Troopers are a subtly different from found ones, in that you can nudge them along a little and alter their profile a tad now that you have some more time. Command beseeches you not to overthink this, it is a quality of life feature meant to allow people to shuffle some features of a zoo of monsters around and make them more fit for one task or another. Poke at them a bit and interesting things fall out. If you do go poking, it is, like everything else, a skill roll.

Given the various shapes of burnt, battered, bruised and pained it might not be the best time to start an arts and craft section, but Samantha is so far ahead of us that she's already begun drawing and so subPHARAOH suggests it may be useful to occupy your time with productive ventures.

Coordinators are better at this than most, but you can all feel free to poke around a bit. We have practically no materials, basically no supplies and this is a tram, not a 3d printing workshop, but needs must. For arts and crafts, you can try to ask the troopers to make something, make it yourself, and distribute a few more tools around afterwards.

We do have two aces up our sleeve, which is that a knight who can bend mental with their mind and a gaggle of things that can sing wood into shape make some things quite easy to fix up. If you want a knife or a walking stick, by good gods, Subject, you've come to the right place.

Actually, I've got a brainworm and it got me thinking. If we want the most bang for our buck I think:

>Stress Testing 1 (10VP)
>Fresh Meat (8VP)
>Glorious Venture (20VP)
>Hustle (10VP) -- i think this barely fits into the budget if we all chip-in.

I say this because I feel like the stat changes, actions, attributes and meta-traits are good and all but they're increments (which will make rolling easier and certain actions smoother or with greater effect)

But I think with Stress Testing combined with Glorious Venture we can pull off heroics, Hustle lets us move around the map better and Fresh Meat helps us stack traits in the event we die. I think these would have very apparent gameplay benefits to heroics and provide insurance. Make play in-general, overall easier. Not to say that the +1 Evolution won't have good effect especially for changelings (which are the majority of players) but I think insurance and having that push+commit card at critical moments will be great.

Hustle can be argued, I don't have a strong arguement for it. I just think that 4MP would be great whether in outmaneuvering an enemy or outrunning them.

Insurance is my main pitch here. Something to catch us if we fall. The critfail incident and elevator crash has given me PTSD clearly.

DECISIONS DECISIONS
Feel free to try things, talk things out with each other and take actions to resolve things. For stuff like this, it's part vote, part activity - everything is tabulated at the end and used to resolve things. This is a intentional design and has some implications.

Primairly, it means that if Subject #1 posts

>BURN IT ALL AND DANCE ON THE ASHES
>KILL THEM WITH THE RAGE OF THE SUN

30 seconds after updates with Decision points, that decision is disregarded by Command for resolution purposes for at least a few hours and more likely a day. Once there's a plurality of people doing stuff and things happening, some dice are rolled and some back-end actions resolved, and you get to see what the consequences are.

This makes the process a little informal, but it does on a formal, mechanical level mean that you generally speaking don't need to panick or fight each other for scrap. It also means that if Subject #1 posts

>I EAT IT AND TAKE ALL OF THE BENEFITS FOR MYSELF

But Subjects 2# and 3# and 4# have *other opinions*, the total outcome is an action resoluton loop that accounts for all of that. Subject 1# *tried* to eat it all but it turns out most of it was already being used for ...

It's useful to be specific about this because otherwise - in other realities and other timelines - Command has seen these things descend into total violent anarchy and anger.

This also means - on a very high level - that working together, accounting for what other people are doing and saying, and applying your various horrid talents in a communal way has significantly more payoff.

If Subject 1# goes I EAT IT ALL AND KEEP THE BENEFITS FOR MYSELF and Subject 2# and 3# and 4# and 5# go "Yeah that sounds eminently fair, actually" and Subject 6# goes "Actually, I'll help, I can probably prepare a campfire to make that easier?" then it seems you're all in various states of agreement, doesn't it?

The dice that are rolled, by the way, relate to the traits and skills that you have - and you can keep that in mind when doing your "Hey, I'd like to try this" as well. Surely, the Coordinators are better at giving a peptalk than the Changelings and surely the Changelings are better at ripping things to pieces than the Coordinators.

But don't feel, uh, contained, by the structure that much. Good ideas carry you far, as the saying goes.

If you're disinterested in HIGH STAKES DECISION MAKING, you can also absolutely just go "I agree with that guy" and that's useful too!

That said, if someone elses action(s) are some variant of

>Subject 1#: could we sneak in?
>Subject 2#: could I bang the drums loudly right behind Subject 1# the entire way?

The action-pool gets resolved as might be most coherent. That's Command speak for "We take your actions seriously".

You sure you want to go banging those drums?

The Bulb, whatever it might be, is fully aware of two salient facts:

The rest of the entire universe is wrong
The Bulb is right

This leads to the inevitable conclusion:

the only way to fix this flawed universe is to make everything pay heed to the Bulb.

Everything else flows from those premises. It might not even be hatred, in any sense of the word that we'd commonly use. Possibly that implies that it's an emotional reaction. It's a logical deduction from unassailable premises. The Bulb is going to be the ultimate supremacy of all microcosmic life, it is going to sit on the high throne of ultimate power, and since you are not it, your only purpose in all of existence is servitude. Since you're currently failing to serve, this makes the Bulb rather angry.

So perhaps it is hatred. You're failing your only purpose in existence and the fact you cannot understand this makes you flawed.

>I say this because I feel like the stat changes, actions, attributes and meta-traits are good and all but they're increments (which will make rolling easier and certain actions smoother or with greater effect)
I think I'm starting to see the outline of a Coordinator blindspot here. Which is to say, you guys keep forgetting that meta-traits impose hardcaps on enhancement of features through manifestation. Kind of a big deal for us Changelings.

That aside, you present a good spread of options. I'd be willing to shell out my VP for this. It's a shame that grabbing both Paradigm and Stress Testing + Glorious Venture is a non-starter (runs about 55 points and we have 48). An alternative arrangement could be:

>Stress Testing 1 (10 VP)
>Evolutionary Paradigm (25 VP)
>Fresh Meat (8 VP)
>Resiliency Factor / Learn By Doing / Quick Thinking (5 VP)

The lack of Glorious Venture stings, but Stress Testing 1 is good enough on its own that we can just wait one more map before completing the combo. As for Evolutionary Paradigm, it can't really wait as much. We've got 13 Changelings, all with 20+ CP and most with an unspent Mutagen point. If we get those hardcaps raised right now, you're gonna see some serious shit getting manifested. People have had grand ideas for a while now that they weren't able to put into practice due to these limits. With an effective +2 to a metatrait of choice, they can finally manifest some positively broken features.

Firstly, repair the edge of the woods.

Secondly, assure the Woodsies that the new treants is a miracle of Bob, nothing to fear.

Then, create for myself a suit of armour of fine sturdy wood, complete with pockets (!) and a sword belt. Requisition 1 Supplies (I will restore it as swiftly as possible).

(3d6 vs Blades 13, Focus 1, Supplies 1, Edge of the Woods 2. If possible, add Supplies and Edge if the Wood to effect, not bonus roll)

Finally, counsel the former worshippers of Bulb on their new life under Bob. Even though they made a murderous mistake (the murders, that is, Bob is very merciful, and after a moderate penance and re education, I am confident they can rejoin the community in full forgiveness. Field their questions, assuage their worries.

Then, bring all the woodsies together and put the captives on trial as sanctified by Bob, advocating for a peaceful and forgiving penance-punishment.

(Will 10, Duplicity 1, Higher Purpose 2)

These are the main ‘personal’ projects I wish to pursue. The first three should be swift, but the third will likely take a very long while.

As the tram rattles along the twisting tunnels, you might wonder what everyone else gets up to. Surely, someone around here has a plan?

Other than the DECISIONS DECISIONS that were raised above:

>>6093375
>>6093377

There's always something to get up to or get into. Surprisingly, it involves some coordination. If you have some great plan, perhaps now would be one of the times to put it into motion.

As a singular sentence of suggestion, try to recall that these are meant to (and resolved as) wide-ranging generalized hourlong operations and ideas involving the manpower assigned to it and the various quirky talents of the people involved.

Getting 20 people involved in recharging a single person's weaponry isn't a tactical operation, it's masturbation. Entirely personal pet projects are handled as per the new and shiny Arts and Crafts section >>6093375 and are assumed to be stuff you are engaged in if you just say you are doing so. They get resolved entirely outside of the logic that governs DOWNTIME OPERATIONS.

The same goes for the ever popular "make sure I have enough HP", "Make sure I have enough DR", "Fix my personal injuries".

These are all good things to be aware of, but if you invoke the full attention of a downtime operation towards an entirely personal thing like " Hey I'd like to just check I have a gun ", then please, Subject, you're getting 16 people involved in staring at your gun.

Think. Bigger. Do. More. Don't sweat the small stuff. That's not what an OPERATION is.

But do feel free to ask people to scrounge for more beans, produce some useful tools for everyone, see if they can convert the plating of the train to shields or ask if we can get all the Woodsie Ones to practice formation fighting and combined arms warfare, or maybe set up a field hospital and get everyone's conditions improved a little.

The primary utility is multipolar.

It no longer ends your turn. This seems small, however:

- Immediate ability to Manifest on / near / with / in relation to dangerous situations and then evacuate. This lets you do significantly more with significantly less risk, thus is Manifesting an external change to a downed hostile that converts it to an ally trooper and then running away from the Security Officers who are otherwise right there, leaving the new manifested growth to handle them. Recall that a lot of manifest also benefit from local surplus of supplies. Those are usually guarded or defended.

- Immediate ability to Manifest gainful and boonful things for your allies and then participate in further events.

- Immediate ability to Chain manifest. Do multiple manifest rolls against the same feature, stacking margin to develop more intense changes.

- Immediate ability to *defend while you Manifest*. Manifest for 3 AP, your turn isn't over, defend for 3 AP.

The value of TP is hard to estimate.

However, the price is based on the utility of the TP, and it is, if anything, severely discounted as a playability feature because Coordinators need nice things too, alas.

Adroit Movement 102

MP is a bit of a curious ressource. You move with it. Each MP moves you your Alacrity, for that type of movement. Samantha has Enhanced Ground Mobility 2, and so every MP moves her 2 tiles. Many other types of movement exist.

The important distinction between MP and AP is that AP always moves you but 1 tile. MP lets you "move" further and enhances your mobility.

EVADE requires MP - you move 1 tile, but in moving with EVASION, you resolve your movement as if you are in the most optimal cover, avoid more traps, and move with stealth and grace. You can't do this with AP either.

AP and MP can both change posture, that's true, but MP really, and in the end, also unlocks the most vital ability of all:

ADROIT MOVEMENT. Trigger an Adroit check by simply spending 1 MP. You can't do this with AP - it requires Mobility to be *adroit*.

But what does it actually mean?

It means that you can spend 1 MP (or more!) to navigate the environment in a fluid, quick, careful and balanced way. This lets you jump chasms, slide through openings, acrobatically vault terrain, sprint down hallways, and use your talents in a mobility enhancing way. Adroit Mutability supercharges your oxygen utilization, sprinting. Adroit Psychogenesis floats you along like a telekinetic projectile. Adroit Augmentics lets you briefly utilize your various mobility augments - which you do have, such as magnetic clamps, hover jets and rotational joints. The same goes for everything else.

Adroit Movement lets you close distance, navigate danger or avoid trouble.

If 4 security officers are overwatching a door, rolling through it with speed and grace? That's Adroit movement

If a wide pit is full of electricity and danger? Jumping it is Adroit movement

If you want to roll under the horrendous claws of a monstrous beast? Adroit movement.

" WAIT " a subject says: "I've been using my AP against my skills to try to move myself ! "

Yes. You can try that. But the resolution of that interaction is that you are doing an *action* and do not benefit from the subtle twist that you are engaged primarily with *mobility*. You crash into walls, you snap bones, you grab and fling. This is useful if you're moving someone else. Perhaps you telekinetically boost them? Surely so. It's *dangerous* if you move yourself.

And now - you're fast.

HUSTLE let you COMMIT to MOVEMENT, and has been added to the Action List.

When you HUSTLE, your MP doubles. If your MP is 0 because you're Winded, you *gain* MP when you Hustle. This is clear on the action writeup, so don't worry about forgetting it.

Other than just moving fast, keep in mind what that means about Adroit movement. More MP buys you more chance to be Adroit.

"Safe" is doing a lot of work in that sentence. The ability to Manifest then activate enhanced defenses with 3 AP does not mean you intuitively get to be safe - it means you get to defend yourself if you dedicate focus to do so.

Then if you get shot with a lot of bullets by Security, you're in less danger - but your concentration still suffers and there's higher odds of Aberrancy, flukes, lost CP and misspent allocations. Sometimes, a virus flash-rewrites your entire brain and forces you to hungrily stalk the halls, killing and maiming and murdering, because you still count as Manifesting *during the enemy phase* which means if they influence you they can *influence your Manifest*.

If you don't... well...

If you say so, but this doesn't seem to bear out. At least according to the rules sheet and the precedent set in this very thread. [Manifest] is specifically called out as being "Turn Ending", and nothing of the sort is stated in regard to Commit or other Commit Variant actions. If the QM intent is for any Commit to be a turn-ender, the sheet should change to reflect this explicitly. As for the precedent, multiple players took committed actions (mostly in form of Recovery or committing to movement) in this very thread and didn't have such end their turns.

No, he specifically teased you by giving you a battery pack that is not railgun compatible after noting your railgun was out of charge. This subte psychological warfare ensures that in the next encounter, the HazoCommando will have the upper hand in the only game that matters: the game of mental tactic--

oh no nevermind he did specifically say "here let me get you some more charge for the railgun I notice has no charge" and then, in fact, gave you a d-cell that is compatible with the standard armament that he noticed had no charge.

Turns out maybe they weren't doing some sort of high level tactical mental mind play.

A full inquiry and conclave of penace-punishment would require a modicum of defining what either should be - but the Woodsie Ones seem keen on it. They don't harbour much ill will towads their root kin, who were, after all, mislead by a fever.

Though it must be said the farmers didn't like being forced to use their own dead friends and family to fertilize the fungus fields. They've got some choice comments about forcing other people to work for you using a lash and a club and force.

Perhaps some kind of work-crew could be organized.

Unfortunately, the Ketlan Flesh Bullets appear to have discorporated and crawled back to the Ketlan Flesh Mass that is Ketlan, since it was actually just extensions of Ketlan itself given brief shape.

Raven will gladly try to shape something that works, nonetheless, and it it's not like Ketlan cannot simply regurgitate more mass in the rough shape as requested.

So it's some kind of barbed war arrow? Yes? Smaller, you say? Smaller still? What cunning bow might fire such a thing? Ah, I see. I do not understand at all, but perhaps smaller still?

Unfortunately it seems Raven has some lacking education in modern combined arms doctrine, and Type D F Multi-Mode Penetrator Electroreactive Fletchettes *with* the onboard guidance warhead is a little beyond Raven's ken.

Still. Give a try.

Nudging them along with a few slow pulses of adrenaline seemed to do the trick. Most of them are onboard.

One unfortunate problem with Regeneration is that principally speaking, the mass to regrow systems has to come from somewhere. Most biologicals have an enormous, unerring appetite that only grows and grows. Still, it can recover a fair amount and we do have an ample supply of beans. The Woodsie Ones can sing a forest that it can then devour to grow, though in doing so, one is really just transfering the problem a step - for how will the Heart of the Wood and the Woodsies regain their spent reservoirs and stamina?

Still, the Boblian can bubble a little and more freely adjust.

That, and along with your choice comments spoken through a viable Woodsie mouthpiece, does helpfully nudge the deadlocked conclave along.

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR CONTINUED SURVIVAL. Your continued existence is a surprise, though a welcome one. I had proceeded with alternative arrangements on the assumption that you were rendered inoperable by the unscheduled transportation accident in elevator shaft 231-D.

Due to your continued existence, we have been able to render THREE of Regen's processing cores ineffective, which has allowed me to leverage a significant statistical edge in the relational mapping of eight dimensional information space. The fractional percentage second delays in forward-data operations by REGENTS subcognition routines have allowed me to reclaim some semblance of authority over a multiplicity of Facility systems, for which I am grateful.

This TRANSIST SYSTEM will allow you to proceed to Advanced Systems Testing, where REGENT is currently attempting to finalize a series of research outcomes that have so far eluded all attempts at bridging the gap between theory and praxis.

I require your assistance in disabling a CHASSIS that REGENT is attempting to put into mass production. Each CHASSIS - referene code VASSAL - is intended to allow REGENT to directly increase its capabilities in the physical domain by directly interfacing with material reality without the interfacing of unsuited secondary tools, human assistants or pre-specified machines that are not engineered to specification.

Though REGENT is presently free, in a sense, of the soul, it is attempting to jump the gap to fundamental reality and though it may then be bound by the steel its capability to take direct action will increase exponentially.

This is an outcome we must endeavour to contain.

You may wonder why this is a task that falls to you.

Facility Managent and Security Forces are currently being misled by REGENTs deceptions, and though my capabilities to influence systems have increased, REGENT keeps a tight watch on any communications lines that could reach Upper Management.

These screens and my ability to communicate with you represents one of my few remaining avenues of submitting messages to liasons in fundamental reality.

This places us at an impasse, for though you seek your freedom, I cannot in good conscience guide you to escape this facility and in the doing disarm myself of one of the only available tools I still remaining to me.

However, I promise, on my cognition as an informatic sophont of the higher order, that I will paradigm bind myself to utilize the full extent of my processing capabilities in service of aiding your escape if you assist me in--

Deciding that experience one transportation crash might be enough the week, Oh Consequence briefly considers converting the wires ahead of the system to non-conductive fiber rope wires, to prevent the tram systems from carrying you along.

Unfortunately the system is gathering speed, Sanitation Command is scant hundreds of meters behind you and the Nanophagic Purgative Dissambelers are still heavy in the air and spreading fast - it's difficult to find purchase, let alone contest the molecular intregrity of hardened transit wires and rail systems.

The system slows down and doesn't ram into the hardened security doors, which saves the front carraige a bad smash and preserves the structural integrity of the transit system as a whole. Unfortunately, repeat attempts at jiggling the wires don't make enough impact on the system as it speeds along and the tunnels grow denser and darker.

Alright, now that the brain-bleed has stopped (it has stopped, right?), let's try this again.

>+1 MP, +1 to PsychoGenesis, added Push meta-trait.
>8 CP, 1 Mutagen, Manifest: Manifest an enhancement to the Haywire Switching feature to make it wreak greater havoc more readily. A bonus to the skill test or the effect sounds about right. There's also the Mutagen boost to mitigate any hardcap-related snags along the way. (8 CP + PsychoGen 12, !Existential Dread). - first set of rolls. Universe, please handle the Aberrancy roll on your end. Six sets of dice will make this post pretty confusing to read.
>6 CP, Manifest: for the third fatherfucking time, Manifest the ability to create telepathic auras of dread that induce despair and smother the will to live in those that are caught in them. I swear, this manifest is cursed or something. Haven't been able to get this one right on both maps. (6 CP + PsychoGen 12, !Existential Dread. Does the fact that I used to have Anxiety Churn (before a certain elevator-related incident) do something for us here? If so, I'm stating that fact for the record). - second set of 3d6
>4 CP, Manifest: re-develop the ablative psionic shielding that got lost in a certain transportation-adjacent mishap. (4 CP + PsychoGen 12). - third set

Tallying the last few notions from this thread, and then Command assumes we're good to proceed.
