For having just meditated, you feel surprisingly worn out. Sure your vys reserves are full, but physically you're exhausted. Your breath comes out ragged and you ache from head to toe. You didn't really think that just going through forms was all that taxing physically, but you suppose you've been going through the same forms over and over again for several hours now. It would wear down on anyone, right?

You stretch, wincing as your muscles complain. Darzi and Kaur seem to finally notice you've withdrawn from your trance. Darzi is the first to speak. “Looking a little flushed, Mik. You feeling okay? Sore?” You can't help but feel that her tone is the slightest bit mocking; the shit-eating grin on her face doesn't help much. You shoot her a glare and use just a touch of water magic to alleviate the pain in your limbs, though you still feel a tad weak.

Kaur chimes in, she seems considerably more polite. “It's been about six hours since we started-” Gods above, that long? You weren't even particularly low on vys, so far as you recall. No wonder you're sore, that's a damned long time to be going through forms. “-so we've missed lunch. If you'd like, I could probably find someone to fix us something. We could also head down into town and see about scrounging something up, if you'd like.”

Darzi shrugs. “I'm really fine with whatever we choose to do, I'm not all that hungry if I'm being honest.” How can she not be hungry after six hours of running through forms, on top of exercising beforehand? If nothing else, Striking Monkey ought to leave anyone out of breath. You might not be the most in shape compared to some but shadowboxing for hours on end is exhausting no matter how you cut it.

Jealousy aside, you're starving. However, you've also got a fair bit you still wished to accomplish today, and you could always simply wait until dinner was served or snack on the various rations you've got with you.

also helping Aziz study or prepair is important right now, not saying we should reveil anything sensitive (like enchaning or the Varvars chest) but inviting him to meditation sessions with us wouldn't hurt.

So doing kaurs meditation We would be training our fighting style along with w.e else we were meditating for?
Say meditating on nature while shadow boxing?

You shake your head, solemnly. “I'm afraid I can't join you, I've got a backlog of books I need to read and I really ought to get started on them. However, if one of you might bring me a hot meal...” You trail off, leaving your request unsaid.

Kaur frowns. “Do I look like a serving woman? You can fetch your own food, if all you intend to do is hole away in your room and read.” It almost seems as if she has a distaste for the very concept of cracking over a book, judging by the way she practically spits out the word. It strikes you as intensely odd, coming from someone who intends to attempt to reach Grandmastery of an element soon. You've never met a true Vatis who wasn't a bookworm.

Chrys sighs melodramatically, but she doesn't really seem to mind. “I suppose I might be able to get you something. Is there anything in particular you'd like?”

You cock your head to the side, thinking for a moment. “Not really, so long as it's a proper meal. Truth be told I'm starving.”

Chrys wags a finger at you like a mother scolding a spoiled child. “You know it's not good to go hungry, if you wish to grow strong, get into shape, you need to eat. Food is the fuel your body uses to sculpt itself into its ideal form.”

Ugh, you remember that old mantra. Your older brother used to say that all the time, something his swordsmanship instructor used to say if you recall correctly. “I know how the old saying goes, but academic pursuits take precedence. Simply keep it in mind when you get me something to eat.”

Chrys places her hands on her hips and leans her weight on one foot. “Fine, but I expect you to be properly thankful. If I wasn't worried for your health I wouldn't bother playing wait staff.”

You wave her off, meandering your way towards the door to the meditation chamber. “You have my thanks Darzi, though I'd be more appreciative if you didn't feel the need to nag me about it. Keep it up and people might mistake us for an old married couple.”
(1/2)

Darzi huffs, but you part ways with her and Kaur before she manages to get in a response. It isn't long before you've made your way back to the little soot covered room you call home. Your dragon still slumbers peacefully on your bed, so once you've produced the Varistha's chest from your cloak you simply take a seat on the floor adjacent. Carefully, reverently you raise the latch and lift the lid, finding the prism glowing dimly at the center of the mess of books and papers. You pluck up a thick stack of loose papers, most covered in writing on both sides, and start to flip through.

You give the papers a cursory glance, categorizing them into separate stacks as quickly and efficiently as you can manage. It seems like, though the Varistha often spread his musing across multiple sheets of paper, there's no sort of logical organization to his notes. They're just a mass of random scribbling to the untrained eye. Fortunately, yours is far from an untrained eye.

Eventually, and after much sifting through the books remaining in the chest for missing papers, you manage to categorize his notes into six parts.

>Focus on his musings regarding artifacts, you think you noticed something about your Hiacian Armor in there.
>Focus on his musings regarding the nature of the universe, maybe it will shed some light on the Void?
>Focus on his musings regarding how to make friends and influence people, he seemed to have researched it extensively.
>Focus on what he wrote about the nature of Vys and the Soul. It's the smallest stack, so you ought to finish it quickly.
>Focus on his writings regarding various theoretical effects, both metamagic and otherwise. It's by far the largest pile.
>Focus on his theological writings, on the nature of the Gods and their relationship to Samjan and the Shahdom.

Soon we will study
>>Focus on his musings regarding how to make friends and influence people, he seemed to have researched it extensively
It will turn our +4 into a +8. I am sure we're close to getting a +6. SO I think we would either wait till then. Or just read this now. And we will become the gods of battering. And getting out of shit/reasoning with Darzi.

>>36087480
Soma I know I am being a bothersome bitch. And have been nagging you with the same question at least 8 times.
But you never answered.
Could we cast speed on our selves to read faster?
also dis>>36087201

>>36087558
Wouldn't we first have to learn speed in order to know whether or not we could?

>>36087558
I wonder we could meditate whilst reading maybe we'd more quickly assimilate the knowledge?

>>36087596
That's not how meditation works.

>>36087558
>Could we cast speed on our selves to read faster?
You'd need to learn speed to find out.

>>36087201
I wrote out it's effects in the combat pastebin.

>Meditation on Forms: Allows you to gather vys and meditate, while at the same time slowly improving your martial skill. At your level of martial expertise, inflicts a -2 malus on meditation rolls and greatly increases the time it takes to meditate. This will improve as your martial talents improve.

>>36087596
Can't read and meditate.

I think that just using the haician armor. Should help us, considering it has passive health benefits + vys constantly going into us. Should be something like speed...but that may be hopeful thinking.
>>36087596
thats why I say wearing the armor would help. We could increase our mental thinking. Getting more reading done with a better understanding.
But it wouldn't really be meditation it would be spending vys to power up our mental thoughts.

>>36087616
appreciate it.

Guys once we get a bit more reading done. We should have Darzi. Give us a day of her time. And learn our forms better/more forms. Get more efficient in our martial arts!

>>36087665
I totally agree with that yeah

>>36087665
Believe it!

>>36087694
>>36087687
I am happy you guys agree.
But do understand I am talking.. like after we read atleast 3 books.
All the notes.
and a few scrolls.
Get metal to vatis(ATLEAST)
Nature I wouldn't mind getting it up an insight or two, possibly even another rank.
learn speed/slow/5 other effects/or meta's.

>>36087665
It cna only benifit us.

>>36087740
Of course. I'm eager to suggest bashing our head against a red hot iron slab until we become a metal vatis.

>>36087740
I support that.

>>36087740
Yeah I agree with you on this we have all these books to read and we keep putting them off when the knowledge is obviously invaluable and the Metal would be awesome

>>36087770
no thanks..
We could likely gain insight into metal simple by asking Balik. Considering she is a metal(I assume expert or master) Since she can mix it in with the oud and affect others mind.

>>36087808
btw I am very eager to learn speed. to cast it on our selves. See how long it lasts. see if it would help reading books.
try a combination of speeding with a cost of 5 vys. See how much we can get done. Along with 2-3 vys on mental speed. Don't want to go to fast we forget our shit once we're done.
Or just wear our armor while we read.

>>36087740
>>36087808

I would feel pretty good about our non-main elements if we could get them all up to Vatis.

>>36088184
I'd feel pretty good about being able to boost a roll with 10 vys as well.

Guys we really need to name our dragon and figure out its gender

>>36088211
ALso I think once we get to 40 vys. We can have our haician armor on 24/7. We went through it and our body should know how to deal with it. + Now we know it was only due to a smaller vys pool along with never experiencing it.

So after this we call up fulvia and ask her to sex our dragon?

agreed everyone?

>>36088295
Hell, ask her do it it while we're reading, kill two birds with one stone

>>36088295
I'll agree to that I wanna know if it's a boy or girl (or whatever)

>>36088278
Maybe we should read the notes on it first

>>36088314
We might need to be there to keep it calm

Khajinā if it is a girl.

It means Treasure in Marathi

>>36088366
looks too much like vagina to me

>>36088366
What was the male name again? Something related to emperors?

>>36088330
>Maybe we should read the notes on it first
thats exactly what we're doing..

>>36088295
I don't know why you guys are so eager to have Fulvia stick her metal fingers into the baby dragon's cloaca. It's going to eradicate a lot of trust the thing has in us if we do that and it gets scared or angry about the intrusion.

You pick up the stack of papers relating to artifacts and his experiences with them. The oldest notes are written sloppily, barely legible really. Fortunately the Varistha's penmanship improves as he gets older, and the newest sheets of paper are written in almost perfect script, the letters flowing elegantly into one another. You leaf through the pages until you find what you're looking for, a piece of yellowed parchment bearing an intricate sketch of the Hiacian Armor the Varistha wore, though he's dubbed it 'Warlock Armor'.

You extract it from the pile and read over the various notes he's left in the margins of the page. He's drawn little lines leading away from each separate piece and run down a list of elements and what they do when channeled into that particular piece. The only element he's left off is Metal, though there's an underlined note in the top corner that simply reads 'Metal = Reinforce'.

You look first at the helmet, which according to the notes unlocks 'The Sight' when pure vys is channeled into it. When Water magic is used instead, it results in the ability to breath underwater just as one would on land. Fire results in immunity to poisonous or otherwise unpleasant air of any sort. Nature allows one to 'access surface thoughts: tricky'. At least, that's the way the Varistha put it. You wish he'd expounded a bit further on what 'tricky' entails. Finally, Earth allows one to see through solid objects as if they simply did not exist.
(1/3 or 4)

>>36088389
Someone wanted Zaak

The torso seems to mostly have enchantments related to physical abilities. Raw vys will enhance all of your physical abilities to some extent. Fire will enhance your strength and speed, at the expense of stamina and mental coherence. Water will allow you to more easily bend and flow around attacks, but seems to detriment one's strength and physical toughness. Earth is the opposite, it allows one to whether even the most powerful of blows, but you'll be hard pressed to move an inch while channeling Earth magic. Nature doesn't seem to do anything, unfortunately.

The boots seem to have paired enchantments, a note in the margins mentions that you can't channel vys into one boot without channeling it into the other as well. The gauntlets and pauldrons are likewise paired. The enchantments for both are fairly similar, the only difference being the delivery of the attack. Channeling fire will wreath either your boots or gauntlets in flame. Channeling water will freeze whatever you strike. Channeling Earth will rapidly erode whatever it is you touch. Channeling Nature allows you to more easily manipulate the movements of plantlife.

The greaves don't seem to do much of anything, unfortunately. Presumably Metal magic channeled into them will still result in them being reinforced, but other than that the Varistha didn't remark on any effects when combined with other elements.

To some degree enlightened, you set that sheet aside and instead pick up a stack of papers which all seem to relate to the nature of an enchantment. You see a number of runes written on the page, though you've little context for what they might mean. The Varistha didn't seem to know either, he's just written a note in the margins of the page which reads “Strange script, perhaps Ancient Dwoveth? Found on blade of Elven tribal's sword.”

(2/3 or 4)

You recognize the Contain rune, but sadly it's not linked to much of anything. You wonder what it might've been. It strikes you suddenly that the Varistha's golden blade had obvious runes carved along the blade, could these be those runes?

Besides his copying or runes, he writes at length about the nature of artifacts on both this and successive pages. He purports that artifacts are, in fact, living things. With personality, wants, and needs. He supplies an example in the form of a spear he mentions that he found within the Pa'vala. It drinks the life of those it strikes, channeling a portion of their power to its wielder. However, it keeps a greater portion of that power for itself. The more it drinks, the more his strikes seem to be guided by some unnatural force towards his target.

Your readings are interrupted by a knock on your door, which sets your dragon bolting awake. Its head shoots up, where it had previously been hidden beneath its clawed hands in comfortable sleep. You hear it let out one of those strange croaking chirps that it makes, a strange sound to be certain, but when Darzi pushes open the door bearing with her an entire pot of beef stew, scented with various herbs and spices and ripe with vegetables and other natural accouterments, it starts to whip its tail through the air obviously pleased.

(3/4)

As she steps inside the dragon rises to greet her, she deftly avoids its claws as it rises up on its hind legs to get a look at the pot in her hands. Instead she sets it down in front of you, sticking a wooden spoon into the stew. Your dragon backs off, seeming to sense the meal is yours. “Here you go, damned hermit. I've brought you a nice, hearty meal. Hopefully actually eating something will speed your progress, physically. Maybe you won't be huffing and puffing after a light workout sometime in the near future.”

Her tone is teasing, so you don't get particularly offended. You simply take up the spoon and dig around for a generous chunk of meat. Beef is a rare treat, among your people. The sands of the desert are ill-suited for cattle, so it's typically imported from the successor states to your people's north, or from The lands of the Samrajya to your east. As you take the first bite, the meat practically falls apart in your mouth. It's delightfully tender.

>As above, but attempt to meditate instead.

Ricky is gonna get jealous of our dragon in the food department.

>>36088598
These two make sense going together.
getting the sex should take to long

Do you think Soma has a food fetish, or a fetish for describing foods?

>>36088463
>Call up Fulvia and ask her to sex your dragon.

>>36088463
>Call up Fulvia and ask her to sex your dragon
Thank Darzi and let the dragon try some of the beef

>>36088604
Ricky is probably going to ask for the Dragon as a meal.

>>36088725
He can go fuck himself

>>36088463
>>Thank Darzi, eat, then get back to reading the Varistha's notes.
we also need to get our dragon something to eat. Has it had anything since it's initial meal?

>>36088762
It hasn't even been 24 hours has it?

>>36088463
Should probably get the Dragon some food soon too, it's still young, and it's been like, A day hasnt it?
Man, between it and Ricky, we're going to get eaten out of house and home.

>>36088762
We should train it to hunt so it can fend for itself a bit more. And to maintain its own invisibility

>>36088787
It probably should eat something more then once a day anon. Also, what about water? or waste

>>36088819
Luckily we're filthy stinking rich

And it shouldn't be too long until it can hunt for itself.

>>36088847
Most Predators eat once every several days. sometimes going weeks between kills.

>>36088850
Until then we can sell him a goat for 1 piece of gold everytime he's hungry.

>>36088948
Did your parents charge you for every meal?

>>36088847
Don't forget about feeding Ricky.

>>36088986
This is a dragon. We've got to teach it that it needs to hunt if it wants to live.

>>36089016
We can teach it to hunt. We aren't going to have a problem with that.

>>36088948
Lol that's true..
once he understands he can purchase goats with a gold piece. He will give us ten gold pieces. And demand his food. Once he sees his money dwindling he will start to hunt.


Guys what do you think,
We head back into the mine. Get back to the lake, summon 100 ice golem this time. Once we have the attention of the huge diah, we combine the remaining ice golems. And add how ever many we need to have at least x50 the regular golems we have and kill the king fish. Might be enough to get grandmaster. Into manipulation which is what I want peeaonally. Cause healing as grand mastery is easy as fuck once we study anatomy we will easily be repairing limbs and what not on command.

>>36089081
Erick cominbing the 50 into one huge fighter golem. Using it to fight and using magic through the golem to destroy that fish.

>>36089081
>>36088948
Unnecessary. And counterproductive.
Because all it's really teaching him is dont to do anything for anyone, even your family unless you get money for it.
Your really going to try to justify Charging a newborn for food as some kind of Lesson? Whats wrong with yo?

>>36089035
Chrys is a good hunter. We should take the dragon on a hunting trip with her.

>>36089081
>>36089121

Also we don't have much time left since soma confirmed that we only have around 30-50 threads left.

>>36089487
dude, 200 threads was his predicted end time.

And we all know how Soma is with time, so think like 1000-1500

>>36089520
The actual number he said was 200 threads. and that's if things go according to plan. IF. And it wont.

And Soma cannot into time or time prediction.

Enchanting was from the AI core recovered a fair ways down at least. Prof got Centurian armor as well from that time we got spooked about ghosts.

And since we traded the heart for Permanency, I suppose like you said there is that. I really want to return after multiple grandmaster and full enchanted gear for the party and just wreck everything we come across while setting up explosives on every level.

Yeah, I agree. while I want to be at least a vatis in metal soon I really wanna get us up to GrandMaster in water first.

>>36089730
holy shit it works, THANKS ANON!

>>36089759
Let's wait until the other two have attained GM before we attempt it

>>36089705
I read all of that. It may help I know most of it by heart, though..

>>36089366
Those were lierally on the very top, in the Bandit hideout.

>>36089837
We got a motherfucking dragon! and a dragon's heart and knowledge on how to enchant shit.

>>36089759
Vatis metal could be done in 1-2 threads easy even while doing other stuff between meditations. We still need to figure out how we want to go about getting our GM. If possible, the hydra heart seems like our best option at the moment but even that entales finding and killing one of the fuckers.

>>36089759
Eh, I feel we're really rushing for that, we should take it slow first and learn metas/effects for dat vys pool

Anything we do that is incredibly dangerous to us for GM will benefit significantly from every extra Vys we have. If we have a larger number to spend on rolls and a larger total to spend overall we will be more likely to succeed and less likely to be completely fucked if we don't.

We should not rush into GM water and try to eat a Hydra heart or something until we learn more stuff. At least some metas or effects because those are fairly quick Vys.

>>36089837
I refer you to>>36089871
Not on the top.
enchanting we had to go deep. To get what the spirit wanted. When We Almost Died Was then.
and the lake is way above the dragons.

>>36089871
dragon heart was not a good thing to have, regardless of t coming handy with buttholeface
>muh meditation aid
It's indeed cool to have our baby, but one is enough, and the enchanting came with a lot of party members almost dying (Chrys and Fulvia corrupted, everyone in danger in the fight) We already have like a +6 from the temple, a cumulative additional +6 isn't hard to get. Not even talking about how bad an idea going against the demonfish in the lake, or trying for Control GM with such a small thing be.
Besides, I want Healing GM.
But whatever, we have weeks to fuck around here before anything related ro GM

>>36089931
>>36089882
yup, the mo' vys the mo' better
People should also stop powergaming/trying to cheatbthe system

>>36089931
Which is why I say the lake is the best place for this.
+12 guys. Base with out meditation bonus.
we're talking we need 18's very possible.
And we can do the meditation there, killing that Goliath fish. Working on manipulation.
I don't understand why people want to level to go as a healer. We've already have go profeceincy. And I'd rather have the extra experience with manipulation. Since healing were pretty god at.

>>36089986
>we have weeks to fuck around

Even money says something is going to push us to leave before then. I'd guess we have about a week.

I am split between dragon baby being found out and the new head monk having issue with our friends as the cause.

>>36090022
we are NOT pretty god at healing, our healing atm is probably below baseline GM.
Why would you want control? Regular GM control is already plenty, we're a master Fire and we can just fight smart with water.
But really, the +12 is just not worth the danger.
Darzi is a totes cutie

>>36089986
>>36090022
I can't and won't read these until you learn some english presentation skills anon.

>>36090022
Yo, the weakened barrier between realities only gives a +2. The temple's bonus is larger.

>>36090095
I'd much rather the latter, fuck off to a cave nearby and bum around there, visit Kaur and peeps occasionally.

>>36090105
IIRC we are at baseline GM healing currently since we had 3 insights into it. Souma specifically said this and that is why we could reheal our and Dazi's scars.

>>36090117
So wrong. It was more like +8
>>36090105
Do you understand that water is our base element. It's our best element.
it's the element where we can pull water out of thin air even in the desert.
Pulling water out of air is water manipulation.
Making spikes to impale enemies also manipulation.
we've grand master healing as it is.
we do not have manipulation.
studies anatomy will increase our healing effeciancy

Rolled 1 (1d2)

You bow, as much as you can from a seated position, to Darzi. “Thanks for bringing me food, I appreciate it, really.”

She waves you off. “Don't mention it, really it was no trouble. By the way, what's with the chest? I don't recall you picking it up anywhere. What's the pyramid thing do?”

You flash her a grin, sifting through the Varistha's notes until you find the message he left for you, categorized with the various notes relating to Artifacts. You pass it over to her, and allow her to read it while you focus on your food for a time.

One of the greatest features of the brooches is that you don't have to stop eating to talk to someone without violating basic table manners. Thus, while Darzi is occupied with the letter you reach out for Fulvia via the connection you share, but find that you don't need to reach far. She seems to constantly sit just a thought away, anchored at the back of your mind. It's a strange sensation. {Could you come to my room? I think it's time to have the dragon sexed.}

You don't get the immediate response you were expecting, but rather a knock on the door only a few short moments later. Darzi jumps, and your dragon hisses, positioning itself between you and the door. You feel a little touched that it would be willing to protect you, even though really you should be protecting it. You swallow a mouthful of carrot and celery and then call out. “Come in, Fulvia. The door is open.”

Fulvia steps in, carefully closing the door behind herself. There's an almost unsettling eagerness to the way she moves, she's jerkier than usual. Like she can barely contain herself. The smile she projects on her illusory face is almost too wide, teeth gleaming in the light from the Burning Blanket you made. Come to think of it, you're sort of surprised nobody has asked you about that particular artifact yet.

(1/2)

Fulvia immediately approaches, though your Dragon seems reluctant to meet her. Rather it presses itself against you as Fulvia nears. You hold out a hand to stop her before she can start manhandling your dragon. “I'm going to need to ask you to be gentle, and careful. After all, this is a sapient being, more than that it's a damned dragon. The last thing we'd want is the whole temple learning I'm keeping one in my room, though frankly we haven't been making much of an effort to hide it.”

You're not sure how much of that Fulvia heard. You keep a close eye on her between bites as she extracts a long strip of cloth and tries to coax your dragon away from you so she can get a measure of it. To ease the process along, you focus on positive thoughts as well as the word {Go}. You've been making more of an effort to use words with the dragon, hopefully it will pay off.

Eventually your dragon takes a few steps away from you, and Fulvia slowly approaches. She places one end of the strip of cloth on the nose, scratching the base of its horns to keep it calm while stretching the other end of the cloth to the tip of its tail. She has far more than enough cloth. Mumbling something to herself, she moves on to its wingspan. She grabs the small spikes at the very tip of each of its wings and stretches them apart as far as they'll go without the dragon trying to squirm away. She's only barely got enough cloth, frankly you're surprised she manages to stretch her arms as far apart as the wings seem to stretch.

(2/3)

Basic measurements taken, she sits down on the floor behind the dragon. It tries to turn and face her, but you focus on thoughts of it staying still. It seems to reluctantly comply, but chirps in distress as Fulvia lifts its tail to get a look at its groin. There's a horizontal slit where its tail meets its body with two particularly large scales symmetrically arranged beneath it, right where the tale begins. You assume it's female, but much to your surprise Fulvia points to the two large scales rather than the slit itself. “These indicate male, females don't have enlarged anal scales like this.”

Huh, so he's a he then. Weird. How does it work if both males and females just have a slit down there? Do they, like, rub them together or something? Maybe they're like birds? You shake your head, banishing thoughts of dragon sex from your mind in favor of consideration of a name. You were rather fond of Zahak, a popular figure from mythology often depicted as a great serpent or dragon. Supposedly an ancient guardian of your people, when they had first escaped from Elven lands. Still, that name carries unsavory connotations as Zahak eventually betrayed your people and was only killed with great loss of life.

After hearing that story from the Varistha you're really forced to view that story in a different light.

>>36090806

Thats why i suggested adding upgrades maybe intelligence through runes(we have to ask fulvia if she knows any).

>>36090856

I thought we were gonna give that thing to SK so he could make some use of it?

>>36090895
>maybe intelligence through runes
Wasn't it hinted at that the robot had an unshackled AI that was a bit young, it was why i voted to buy it anyway.

>>36090895
it doesn't have a soul, it's a science AI, runes won't help, also don't just use enchanting for everything

>>36090908
He already has the tools so it would be pretty useless for him ,and the same can be said about fulvia, i believe it was bought before SK being part of the team was an idea.

>>36090831
I want to scry him.

Culebre

Cynoprosopi

>>36090927
>>36090913
If it is an AI, could we increase its intelligence or something?

>>36090931
>he already has tools
I'm sure not to this extent, even then another set to work double as fast is useful.
Also, we have magic to substitute tools.

>>36090957
depends, are you a computer scientist? Beause I doubt SK can make AI's, and Fulvia is totally different.

I really wanna try meditating with Zahak

>>36090959
>I'm sure not to this extent
His head/helmet basically has all that, and than there is his tech backpack.
> magic to substitute tools.
Wait what?

>>36090978
not yet, first teach it discipline and obedience
power in a child's hand is dangerous

>>36090957
Doubtful. Also completely possible it is not a true AI but just a pretty "smart" suite of software. I hope the thing has solar panels or something, otherwise charging it could prove annoying.

>>36090999
Do you know what thread we bought it, i was sure it was hinted at being an unshackled AI.

>>36090983
we can make blowtorch flame, manipulate fills purpose of scredrivers and the like.

>>36090931
Looking back on it it was the alternative to just keeping it in our cloak in eternal disuse.
I'd at least like to ask SK about possible upgrades to it, as it would be a good backup if he's ever field-incapable himself.

>>36090996
It's already a master level fire vatis.

>>36091030
exactly

>>36091030
Man, how cool would it be to get GM in fire at together with Zahak.

>>36091015
Hinted. I reserve my judgement until we actually spend some time trying to figure that out.

>>36088441
So did we finish all the notes on artifacts?
Cause if we didn't then
>Focus on what he wrote about the nature of Vys and the Soul. It's the smallest stack, so you ought to finish it quickly.
To finish em off both.
If no then we meditate on speed.

Soma-senpai, what you say about my Nature experiment on your ask?

Can we use permenancy on a corpse?

>>36090977
I think SK might know something about illegal upgrades.
>>36091077
True
>>36091024
Yeah here is hopping either him or fulvia can upgrade it.

>>36091104
don't see why that'd be useful

>>36091104
To make it stay dead forever?

>>36091104
Why?
>>36090927
Doesn't permancy give something our soul?
Also the notes suggest that anything

>>36091123
necromancy?

>>36091131
with permanency+enchantment is at least a bit sentient.
>>36091134
Wouldn't that be a combo of animate+nature+vys?

>>36091134
Still don't see why that's useful. I mean, if you want to go raw science on everything some anon from before was suggesting messing with the souls of animals using our knowledge of enchanting, but a corpse with a soul seems pretty far out there.

>>36091149
Animate + Permancy

>>36091131
>having a soul!=having intelligence/consciousness
or at least we have no confirmation that it does
>>36091134
need animate too at least
also wouldn't be original soul

>>36091168
That doesn't tell me why it's useful, anon.

>>36091104
Why the fuck not?
>>36091143
Using enchanting to give our robot an ai sounds like it could backfire since it already has an intelligence.
>Wouldn't that be a combo of animate+nature+vys?
No reason why vys would be there since it's dead.
It would probably be animate + nature/ water + permanency
>>36091149
It's useful because it's like cheap golems.

>>36091194
>It's useful because it's like cheap golems.
Now there's the stretch.

>>36091184
>need animate too at least
That much is obvious
>also wouldn't be original soul
That's also obvious, that's why I said necromancy and not resurrection.

“I think I'll name him Zahak.” You announce to the room.

Fulvia lets his tail drop and he quickly sits down, curling his tail around his legs. You doubt she understands the significance of the name, mythological speaking. She seems more interested in measuring his seated height and the lengths of his various limbs. Frankly, you don't see how any of these measurements are important. What does she hope to learn by taking them? Does she seek to track his growth?

Darzi, on the other hand, immediately understands the greater meaning of the name. “Zahak? Really? I mean, appropriate considering that he is a Dragon, but don't you think that name bears ill portent?” She passes the Varistha's note back to you, and you hear over the connection you're afforded by the brooches. {Interesting, that he'd leave this to you and not his successor. I get the feeling he has some sort of greater purpose behind gifting it to you than merely passing on his legacy.}

You shrug your shoulders. “Zahak started off as a guardian of our people, and besides that the mythological Zahak was said to be raised among dragons. This Zahak will be raised among our own peop-” You catch yourself, glancing to Fulvia. “Well, if not our people he will be raised among a collection of mortals. Two of which are our people. Hopefully so long as we treat Zahak properly, he will prove a loyal companion.”

Whilst simultaneously speaking, you reply to Darzi via the brooches. {I'm sure you're right, though I've yet to determine what his ulterior motive might be besides preventing me from going on a murderous rampage once I finally lose my mind.}

(1/2)

>>36091194
why would we use nature/water?
Also it's not a cheap golem, golems are stronger and don't cost more once we make the body
>>36091214
still don't see wh you want necromancy

I asked soma if you could amputate our own limbs and attatch them to another human/animal corpse and give it a soul. Bonut point for amputating out own arms twice and giving it 4 arms. Is this weird?

>>36091210
Not really, if a body can already channel vys, we wouldn't really need to create those leylines or whatever, the animate effect probably fits perfectly with humanoids.
The only additional cost to a corpse is to keep it from deteriorating.
How is it a stretch exactly?

After a time, Fulvia seems to have taken all the measurements she'd like and stands. Darzi follows her lead. “Well, I'll leave you to your reading and parenting. Try not to stay cooped up in here all day, I don't want to have to drag you out come morning.” With that, she heads out the door. Fulvia had simply wandered off without a word, seemingly off in her own little world. You think she might have a tendency to obsess over things that catch her interest.

You've more or less eaten your fill of the stew. Darzi had gotten you an entire pot, far more than you could eat in one sitting. With that in mind, you turn your attention to Zahak. You focus intently on a mental image of him, and on the name Zahak, and associating that name with him. On a whim, you decide to include your family name. Thus, you try to impress upon your dragon that his name is Zahak Abdul-Hakim. You're not sure how much it understands, because you find that Zahak simply turns to you and stares with a vaguely confused expression, but hopefully it gleaned some sort of meaning.

Good, we are showing him that the leader has first rights to spoils.

It's a stretch because it's based on variables that we have no vys estimates for, on top of making assumptions on what they need in the first place and using that assumption to presume an alternative method is easier without first having proof of the other being ineffectual. And this goes both ways as we haven't tried making a true golem yet or seriously pursued any of these experimental paths with vigor.
So saying so without actually knowing so makes it a weee bit of a stretch.

>>36091292
I mean like both of us eating from it or something, to familiarize him with the concept

>Give leftovers
>Read notes.
Writin'

Wonder if Ricky gonna be jealous of Zahak getting our family name while he who's been with us for longer than most of the party(Darzi, SK and Mortia) didn't got the honor.

Ricky's not our son though, I mean, we could try to adopt him, but I think he's a bit too old.

>>36091425
Ricky's our bro not our kid. Its different. Still need to get him a hobby though. Playing cards with skellingtons must be boring.Unless by killing them in the void he bound there souls there or something.

>>36091456
I feel like a piece of shit now Soma. I hope you're super proud of yourself.

Atleast the spin looked like it broke his neck or at least knocked outout a couple of moments. Other wise, that would be a pretty terrible way to go out.

>>36091536
Set up the board with the Ricky side facing it and play him in the mundane version? Nice. Though I bet he only plays cheesy lists.

>>36091536
Rivky as a neckbearded gamer? Why does that make so much sense?

Oh shit, I have all of those somewhere.
My favorite is the guy asking to get undressed.

>>36091496
I wonder if he'd enjoy restoring/creating custom gear. some other hobbies he might like: anything artistic, reading, magic tricks, cooking, juggling.

>>36091456
....Fuck you Soma. I hope your sister bites your dick off.

We ought to just drop it on profectus if that's what it takes for someone to acknowledge it.

Wait... you don't think... it's invisible to them?

I wonder if thats how Ricky feels all the time?

Done with your meal, you heft up the iron pot and turn around to place it on the floor in front of you. “Zahak! Come, you may eat the rest.” You mimic your words in thought, while at the same time focusing on the mental image of Zahak eating from the bowl. He seems to understand quickly, pushing himself to hist feet and practically prancing to the bowl, chest puffed up and wings slightly spread to make himself appear larger. He seems quite pleased with himself, though you're unsure why. As he reaches the pot, his mouth opens wide and a blast of flame roars forth, boiling away the water and reducing the meat and vegetables within to a charred black mass. Zahak digs in merrily.

You pick up the Varistha's notes once more, turning over the page you'd been reading to find an elaborate illustration of the Varitha's shield. Inscribed around the edges are the runes as you remember them, but additionally there are a number of runes you don't recognize from the shield, set closer to the center of the shield. You recognize contain and create, but other than that what they say is a mystery. They seem to be acting upon the central, embossed face. Odd that you don't remember these from the shield, perhaps the Varistha was thinking of making modifications? Perhaps hidden runes?

He's inscribed a full list of the runes at the bottom, there are roughly sixteen unique runes, with many being repeated several times over on the shield itself. You feel like if you just knew a few more of these runes you might be able to puzzle out the meaning of the rest based on context, but as is you're completely lost. You're unsure whether or not you can enchant an object without understanding all of the runes used in the process, but illustrations like this make you really want to try.
