If you're happy with the mirror, it works.
Alright. So... did she jump over with Lily and Kalyn?
Nope. There are a lot of mirrorverse characters; maybe some will come over later.

yeah problems with combat is that either the GM only has time for 1-2 posts a day, or there is a player involved in combat that only has time for 1-2 posts a day so the GM has to wait, either way combat takes a long time. It's really a shame, as this really holds combat back from getting properly exciting. if it could all be handled in one day, it'd be better
Indeed. Although I can recall several occasions where such things were done, leaving important characters out of the fight.
Poor Matt.

"Magic comes and goes and waves, machines exist regardless and are developing exponentialy. Depending on how long a cycle is, by the next time dragons awake, they might not find a single biological life form is left. We are the embodiment of change. Magic hasn't got shit on us."
"In my time, I have seen several civilizations rise and fall, thinking themselves immortal. A few cycles ago, it was the Romans. Last cycle, their monuments were in ruins. Why, construct, do you believe yourself to be superior? Are the people of the past so inferior to the people of today?"

"Okay! Who's Ickyrus?"
Lunette nods and leads Lily and Kayla to Kyle. "ICARUS is a robot," she says along the way.
"Oh. Neat!"

Quote from: kj1225 on February 28, 2014, 10:58:00 am
"Uh huh."
Kyle is playing flappy bird and not paying attention.

Kayla follows Lily.
Thw dragon looks irritated. "This is why humans could only claim the world while we slept; you cannot keep their attention for more than a minute without an imminent threat to life and limb."
Lily and Kayla may reach Kyle.

I'm pretty sure that "junk DNA," aka DNA for genes that are no longer expressed, is by definition unimportant.

And yeah, I would have probably done that too. Maybe they didn't have DNA from any archosaurs they knew related to that bit of genome, so they resorted to frogs? That would also explain why all species with any frog DNA wound up being able to breed.

I bet it would make a great ally.

OR, it could be Cain. Who would make a great "ally" but a terrible ally.

Anyways, yea or nay, GreatWyrm? Is Mirror!Neferis okay?
If you're happy with the mirror, it works.

Quote from: Akroma on February 28, 2014, 10:40:42 am
I still think the mirrorverse characters should be villains for the final battle in a clash of universes where the everyone in the mirrorverse, even including mirror gods, fights our universe
That could be, hypothetically, neat. But probably too time-consuming.

"Hi! I'm Lily! Do you know where Kyle is? He asked to meet us."
Lunette cocks her head slightly, as if listening for something, "Hello Lily, I'm Lunette. Kyle's with ICARUS. I can lead you to him if you want."
"Okay! Who's Ickyrus?"

Quote from: Akroma on February 28, 2014, 09:46:34 am
"The eventual future of life on this planet, you may call me ICARUS, a pleasure to meet you - maybe."
"Haughty little construct, aren't you?"

Quote from: kj1225 on February 28, 2014, 09:57:14 am
Kyle points out all of the lasers swords powered armor and the explosive device on his body.
"And I'm one of the planents heroes who is not very impressed by a bunch of dusty old cliched dinosaurs."

Kayla does not move.
"You fancy yourself a hero? And we are much more than mere lizards, ape. We are embodiments of magic, our race older than the trees, older than the mountains."
It seems that, surprisingly, dragons not being awake since centuries before the term "dinosaur" was coined do not understand the insult.

Lily drags her along.

Lily climbs out of the pool, completely dry.
"C'mon, let's try and find Kyle. You'll like him. He's cute."
She drags Kayla through the halls randomly.
Lunette is suddenly in front of Kayla and Lily and waves at them, "Hello. Who are you?"
"Hi! I'm Lily! Do you know where Kyle is? He asked to meet us."

"Stella was born while the council was sleeping. She is not bound to their rule. She is a free dragon. The same goes for everyone of her kind. She herself choses whom to obey."
"Regardless, she is needed."

Quote from: Akroma on February 28, 2014, 09:30:11 am
"Relax Kyle. This is Stellas decision. Until she has made it, let's remain diplomatic. In case she choses to obey the council, that is fine. The problem only arises if she choses not to, but the dragon in front of us decides not to acknowledge her decision. In that case, I recommend preparing to defend Stella. Did you bring any heavy weaponry with you?"
The dragon glares at ICARUS.
"And what, praytell, are you?"

"None of your concern. The dragon must be brought to the Council of Wyrms. Do you know where other dragons of your kind are, young one?"

I wanna try looting a battlesuit, but i have the distinct feeling that if i forget to melt the suit cameras the commander is gonna blow me up...
That might be amusing. Especially if only the one sod knows the battlesuit's turned.

I call dibs on his stuff. Unless PW doesn't kill him, in which case I call dibs on his stuff after I slice him.
That's not fair. Gamerlord should get to choose who gets his stuff.

((You know what, Piecewise? Can you just kill my character? I can't keep up with what's going on and what everyone else is doing and reading through this and the other threads to try and figure it out is more of a chore than it is enjoyable.))
You might want to bold that, maybe put your current team name at the top. Otherwise piecewise might miss it.

That said, I'm pretty confident with my current pace. But I have this list that doesn't seem to get shorter. It feels like running up the endless staircase and then looking back (Super Mario 64 :P). I am wondering if this is how Toady feels when checking his list. lol.
Nah. His staircase is spiky and several times as infinite. And infested with bugs.

Al: throw everyone over the gap, then do a pole-vault using the Bartering Ram.
Because there's no way this could possibly result in the horrific deaths of the entire party!
Anyway, I vote that we head back to where Oric was/is.  If he and the angel are no longer there, grab the rainbow key thing using Ripriver to float across.  Actually that's a point, instead of messing around trying to get the party across, why don't we just get Ripriver to scout ahead across the chasm to see if the room's worth exploring or not?
+1 to all, especially the -1 to assisted suicide.

"You interrupted my meditation for this... prank?"
"C'mon, you never get out. This'll be good for ya!"

Yomiko is giggling over mindlink since Will got in trouble. She also stops gaming the RNG enough to switch over to Wills team. She is still playing sniper.
<Couldn't take it anymore, huh?>


A dragon flies over to Stella, ICAURS, and possibly Kyle. It looks a lot like the one that took Colrath's head, but bigger. Not huge, but a bit bigger. He(?) speaks to Stella.
"Are you the dragon who was seen in the battle against Colrath?"

Why are the dragons being dumb and wanting to kill humans?
When did the dragons show an interest in killing humans?

Quote from: kj1225 on February 28, 2014, 08:06:00 am
Why would he? He doesn't listen to the public channel like Will.
Kinda dumb of him, since that's where people post all the warnings and call-to-actions.
And, more interesting to Kyle, the "for a good time call..."s.

-Use bird DNA to fill gaps, not frogs you silly.
In the book, they used all sorts of DNA, understandably assuming that it wouldn't matter much as long as they replaced it with the right gene. After all, the genome of virtually every living thing, let alone every tetrapod, is pretty much the same for the most part. It's the rest that matters. (And a good bit of the difference doesn't even code for things anymore.)
Just Wu's luck that the one trait that could have screwed the whole operation up wound up in that stuff they were replacing.
