New theory: All mercenaries are Illborn in disguise!
...Except the ones that aren't in disguise, I mean.

I was just expressing that I feel its silly to name everything after drakes.
I'm not. Just creatures that seem similar to an extant species of drake, as the Tusked and Stonefaced ones seem to be to me.

I'd just roll with it, Donzie. You're just doing a slightly different type of magic, the magic of love:D
Don't make me Arcane Lance you.
Also don't make me look up...nastier Dragon Age spells to use spells with the same name of...
((Look at it this way, you can't fail a roll based around fixing jukeboxes, and isn't that more useful than any silly old arcane lance? :3
No, especially since it's untrue.

"What. The. Fuck. Was. That."
Determine what my pants do and then punch the bitch that threw? a rock at me. And then apologize and explain I've had a bad day.
[5-3] They look awesome, or pathetic. Your choice.
[8+3v8] You punch Faye right in the chest. [9-4v5-2+3] Faye's breath is knocked out of her, [8-3] and your hand is sore.
You cap it off with an apology.

"Oh my god, oh my god, I'm sorry! D-did I hit you?"
Seeing the angry, brightly-colored man walking my way, respond peacefully.
Ah, please, I didn't mean to hurt you! Please don't come any closer, or- or- I'll have to use this!
Shake spear half-menacingly.
[8+3v8] Kyle doesn't listen, he punches you in the chest. [9-4v5-2+3] This only knocks the breath out of you, thanks to that wonderful bit of armor you have. He then swears under his breath before saying, "Sorry, I've had a bad day."

Continue pressing buttons.
[4-2+1] You find no new functions. Someone grabs the suit, though, which makes you feel...violated.

Head to Lucky's corpse, nimbly grab the angelic hat, run behind boulder again and try to see what it does.
You snatch the Hat and retreat. [3+1+1] It contains some kind of defensive enchantment.

Look for a way down the mountainKyle Johnson
[4-1] Short of using magical girl powers to fly down...you've got no idea.

Go inside, grab the vine-making thingy, walk outside, zap it at the wall, walk back inside, return it to its owner, politely thank them and apologize.
You grab Snow's bathing suit and tug. "It won't come off!"

What's so hard to understand about "one-piece bathing suit"? Why do people keep trying to take it?
I mean, why does person keep trying to take it?

I'm tempted to see if you could convert to the Other...of course, you might end up with Agatha's fate...

They know our name. We know who they are. give them our traditional greeting for them whatever it is. Then show them the nearly dead girl.
We don't necessarily know who they are. They might just know our nickname from a second-hand source or something.

Anyway, try to recognize the voice before answering.
Just don't tell whoever just called you about the little positive energy injection you gave Selly.

you should probably get that guy/girl/thing calling you to help get Selly into a proper bed, Closets aren't good places for unconscious girls... or conscious girls for that matter.
Agreed.

Somewhat off topic, but hey Freeformschooler, remember Ursula from Bay12RPG? I wonder if she could be put in an update sometime as a cameo?
Ah, yes, that project. Did it ever get somewhere?

30609
Works for me.

I think we need to develop some god damned eyes!
No we don't. Eyes are pretty useless in murky water, and rather hard to develop anyway.
We need eyes eventually though.
Why?
Eyes are only "dominant" because those clades that are unusually good at adapting happened to have eyes as an ancestral characteristic. If the ancestral chordates had electricity-sensitive rather than light-sensitive cells, we would be arguing over electric sense vs. that crazy light-sense. Also, as noted, many creatures lost their eyes, so clearly they aren't all that important...especially if we have a variety of other senses that can be used in their stead.
And look at our creature. Its closest parallels are cephalopods and cnidarians, two clades which have not ever had a terrestrial member. What makes you think we're going on land any time soon?
Because if we want to be able to make nukes, we'll need fire to smelt the materials. And I'd say we're more fish with tentacle faces and deathcloud-makers in their gills. And pocket guts. And fangs. And a radula.
Okay we have many features from octoPODES but we look like a pretty fishy.
And that spearface guy might make nukes before us if we don't get onto land eventually.
1. What makes you think that we want nukes?
2. What makes you think that Bay12 can't come up with a way for aquatic animals to create a nuclear-age civilization?
3. Since this is an evolutionary suggestion game, what makes you sure we'd be able to control our civilization?

Chilled icecream did exist, actually. It was however more of an Easter/arabian thing.
So did firearms and pyramids.
This isn't the real world. This is an imaginary world Mal made up. He said that the iced cream works, so it works. There's no anachronism.
Let's nip this in the bud. We are on our last strike. No more on the subject.
Especially since we just seem to be arguing about what arguments are valid for deciding that the fim is okay.

Foreign trade sounds interesting, but before we decide to get into it let's check on the international situation. Unless you're trying to get Arthur out of his position, of course. Then encourage him to trade with whomever.

30612
Nah. If we want to work with the Archmage, we should write him an apology note and give him a few days to cool down first.
The quest will probably be taken by then! Besides, no time like the present to make amends.

30613
Agreed, but keeping a dungeon filled with babbling priestesses probably wouldn't hurt our Evil credibility...

Well, I have nothing against corrupting number 2. I doubt that we have much chance of success using the direct approach, but Posing mongoose as an informant seems valid.

I'd also like to note that possessing #2 allows us to keep control over the military of the area.

Namely fishes, yes. But may I point out that whales are more closely related to us humans than to tuna?
Point being?

Quote
Besides, naming a furry bear-like thing "drake" is kinda stretching the thing... Maaaybe the tusked things, but not the stoneface.
It's furry?
And the tusked ones show clear similarities, for instance in the morphologies of their limbs and dorsal surfaces.

Proposal:

Hats are now known as Fluffy Wambledrakes.
That's just silly and it seems to be strawmanning my position.
No more silly than calling everything a drake just because it has one or two features which may or may not show some similarity to a mythical animal.
Actually, it is and I was correct that you were strawmanning me.
