>>31644I guess
>>31645Kek, thats fucking ironic
>>31648You replied right before I deleted it. It's actually an artifact item: an un-craftable item, capable of breaking the game.
>>31649Ah.
Now to research sovereign glue
>>31649Okay, Torc can make the glue.
He just needs the "Craft Wonderous items" feat...
Unless GM is iill to stray from the rules
>>31651The tower facilities replace the need for feats.
Did Lenos ever get back from his date?
I wonder how it went.
>>31636>thinks its going to make sense somehow>>31638>what's Dax>condescending intensifiesYes. New gear. You just got a duplicating chopstick so rations are not really an issue.
>>31641Who?
>>31651How many nifty machines do I have to throw at you?
>>31655Just hold onto it for a bit, it will come up in conversation.
Thez snaps out of her trance and immediately makes a bee-line for the library and starts writing, scribbling notes, making sketches, amd throws a whole bunch of books down on the table around her main work.
>>31656Uh, 420 machines
>condescendingRude, I haven't gotten there yet
>New gearUhhhhh, I can't think of anything Torc would need.
Any sugestions faggots?
>>31657Torc teleports back to the tower
"Good morning, what are we doing today?"
>>31659"I'nis," is all Thez says, as she furiously but precisely and deliberately continues working.
>>31660"Sorry, I don't really feel like
doing your husband"
>>31661Murderous glare, continues working.
(I know, that was for the condescending bit, but still).
Dax is a symbiotic life form that merges with the organism it is paired with, where both consciousnesses unite. The host gains the full knowledge and perception of the parasite, while the parasite gets a new body to operate in. The parasite maintains its disposition regardless of the host it is placed in (there was an episode where Dax was forcibly taken and put into an antagonist, but after doing so assumed Dax' affable manner and perception), and the host personality takes a back seat.
>>31663So the host expereinces everything but has no say over what happens?
>>31664Essentially. In the series, there are a number of training proceedures that allow the host to maintain its self better, in preparation for the joining, and which allow Dax a more 'stable' environment to operate in (which amount to "Sort Yourself Out Anon!"), but yeah. Dax is several thousand years old and its presence is rather overwhelming.
>>31667I think I'll watch DS9 after TOS
Thez continues working, her fancy broom has been largely dis-assembled and is laid out on the table. Her pretty-shiny plates are stacked neatly in another spot. She loses composure incrementally, and several of her notes and diagrams are dotted with tears, but she continues to work, sketching/compiling/working on something.
>>31670"So...
What are you doing?
If you don't mind me asking."
>>31674>>31673Torc incoherently mumbles
"Thanks for the information, real useful."
>>31674Hello there
She reaches her hand to her forehead for a moment, and curses herself for a moment.
"Please excuse me," <whoooof>
About a minute or so goes by and she <whoooof> reappears wearing those ruby goggles that Lenos was always wearing (they were hers to begin with). As she reappears and resumes her 'work' she says to Torcuil. "In chess, one doesn't ever win by accident. One doesn't stumble into their opponent's checkmate, not to any reliable degree anyway. Someone has done this deliberately, and they have the element of surprise. I don't know who it is, and I don't know why, but before I even make my first move I am going to ensure that every move is a winning move."
>>31663>symbiotic life form>life formThen why didn't it fix the problem when Tracy burned Infernius's entire body and grew a new body from his balls? I suspected he had some kind of brain worm.
>>31677I know you burned him but I missed the "to ash" part.
>>31676"So, military stradegy?"
Torc pulls up a chair across the table
"What exactly are you planning to get him back? I should be able to find him, and I still have plenty of his hair for spells."
>>31679"Find him? What's your method? My plan is to ensure that he can be followed wherever or however far he goes."
>>31678I said "to smithereens" in
>>30981 → >>31681Hmmmm. So you did. But, Infernius' player disregarded that as being effective. I can think of a few reasons for that (fire resistence, momentary etherealness of the invader, etc.) but it seems that its still Game On.
>>31682reeeeeeAlright then...
I still have his horn though.
>>31680"I was thinking of Scrying, but if you have a better idea, I'm all ears."
What class is Thez in general
*walks into room* (that she's only ever used to store body parts)
*inspects Soros's Arm*
>blood is probably dried up
>disappointment.png
>claws and look wicked though
>would make for great unholy blades or gauntlets
>maybe even a full plate of demon armor
*inspects troll and hydra skulls*
>one could plausibly make for a great enchanted mask
>this was a comment I typed earlier but never posted
What can Tracy do during this time? Her first action would be to feed her birds.
>>31684"I'm designing a device, a compass of sorts, that operates on the principles of Locate Creature. It won't tell range, or actual location, but as long as we're on the same plane, it will point toward his direction," she says holding up the hand that has his bull-horn ring on it.
>class (kek)L14 Fighter
L20 Monk
L9 Shadowdancer
L6 Horizon Walker
>>31685Thez has an item creation hax. Tracy doesn't know that yet, but get creative.
>>31686I know what 2 of those classes are.
"Smart, actually I could use scrying while you use that to pinpoint him"
>>31682Just say that the Dax didn't have enough room in the stupid bull's tiny brain, so it decided to control him via his balls.
>>31686Kek. I guessed everything but Horizon Walker.
Actually, that's a really alluring class, now that I look at it.
>>31688>Horizon Walker is a archtype of RangerTeach me your ways great one.
Can Thez make torc a magical cattle prod for the Infernius fight?
Shoots electricity and has a chance of paralyzing?
>>31687Horizon Walker is a prestige class based on a nomadic lifestyle, where the benefits are more to do with the environment that one inhabits than the specialty of a particular class.
Shadow Dancer is a rogue-ish class that is more about being elusive and trickster-ish than about stealing and backstabbing; its a largely performance (read: circus) based class.
>prod"Yes."
>>31690Oh....
>yes to the prodIt better be enchanted in the name of Mike "shock the gay away" Pence.
"Thanks Thez, and don't worry. We'll get infernius back"
>>31689"One can't learn the ways of a Horizon Walker by studying or being lectured. One learns that by Walking."
>>31692These boots are made for walking
And that's just what they'll do
Someday these boots are gonna walk all over you
"Oh, I meant the ranger aspect...
But okay, I understand.
I have a whole list of items that I want someday, but the one that'd be most useful would be those animated Abyssal Demon Claws, so Tracy could function as if she had hands, and deliver devastating effects with a extra effects with them during her sneak attacks.
>>31691>prodhttps://youtu.be/OCCjzN8Mghc>>31694Well, Thez is gearing/strategizing up to find Infernius, and she plans on making adjustments to her own reportoire, so when the opportunity permits, say "Hey, I could use sum of deez."
>>31695Truely electrifyingMike "If you like another man's rod, you'll get the cattle prod" Pence
Tracy lumbers through the hallways, in nightmare form, (her body is covered in 'affectionate' pecking wounds), dragging the Remains of George Soros's severed arm by her chains, headed towards the forge.
"Does anyone know if Lenos has gotten back from his date yet? I haven't heard from him in days." asks to anyone around
Trumpaladin, awoken from his cot in the monastery, has a few more words with the Spartan trainees, then rides Fae back to the tower
