"...Elaborate."

Who was that aimed at?

Will picks Meme up and rocks her.
<Say, Selina, I've got a couple questions about your power. First and foremost, can you pull out things drawn by other people? Second, do you have any copies of Conny before you pulled her out?>

i wonder if you need a centralized nervous system, which is i don't know what i'm talking about speak for not having a specific spot of a 'brain' so to speak, i cant recall exactly, but i think i recall that starfish don't have a brain, but function perfectly well moving hundreds of legs underneath the other eight bigger legs, in any case, if you didn't need a specific area in which brain functions take place, as well as having your survival rate skyrocket, from my hopothosis you would move better because all of the brain would be spread out and allows faster reacting, if its possible of course.

((Um...a few things.
1. No, distributed nervous systems don't work like that. Oh sure, each leg might be better-off in reacting to threats to that leg, but the organism as a whole wouldn't be much better-off. Starfish are fine with distributed nervous systems because they don't do anything complex enough to really need a brain. (Anyways, the nerve ring and radial nerve serve the same purpose as the CNS in chordates. A better example for "no CNS" would be the jellyfish.) Humans and creatures of human intelligence need centralized nervous systems to think, because doing otherwise would be basically like having a couple dozen Smartphones scattered across the room and communicating via wi-fi replacing a single normal computer in the middle.
2. Xan was specifically told he needed to keep the brain.))

"Why not? It would solve our food and drink problem forever unless humans have the [alcohol_dependent] tag."

"...Yes, because we would be dead."

Fair enough. I still like the Charisma, because a second level of ghost counts as more than another level in Thrallherd. For my situation, I could take worse four level dips. For the price of reduced casting ability, my thralls get a huge bonus.

No denying that, thrallherd.

I was wondering where Remuthra stood on the GM techniques chart. I think this puts him somewhere close to "Paranoia XP".

Only if you invoke his wrath.

((Soon....and if I had a tm sign to put next to it I would.))

Just use superscript. E.G: Soon^TM

Kyle is terrorizing the outback in his power armor now. Stupid spiders and stuff.

Overkill, mate.

((Its difficult to remeber who she is
