-1, the bonds of friendship cannot be tossed aside so easily. On a lesser note, if MadMonkey is like most GMs then such a decision will likely come back to bite us in the butt later on.
+1 to this. We should at least give him the option to choose if he wants to come with us or not.
Also, he would be powerful meatshield ally if he came with us.
Try to persuade Matthias with the promise that if he came along, there would be even more blood to spill in the future.

Matthias was tasked with killing all sapient life. We are sapient life, therefore Matthias WILL try to kill us at some point, therefore Matthias is not a friend, therefore we should leave without Matthias, it will make it harder for him to find us, especially since this ship seems to be the only way out of here. We leave, Matthias is trapped in the
Land of Blood. We need to be smart
+1 not to mention even if he doesn't kill US, if we bring him to any world with sapient life on it, he'll almost certainly have no qualms about killing others

F IS FOR FRIENDS.

WHO DO STUFF.

TOGETHER.

Trust in the power of friendship to show Matthias a better way, It worked for plankton. It can work for him.

That's just the writers settling for status quo.
A forum interactive choice game however, isn't limiting itself to things remaining the same as most TV shows are.

U IS FOR YOU. KA. LAYYYY-LEEE.

I will hear none of this anti-friendship rhetoric. Also I blame Mr. Krabs for plankton's relapse. We should definitely learn everything we can about this ship thing before checking in with Matthias though.

Oh my god voiceovers for everyone here. I'm watching it immediately.

*Starver is my favorite voice.
*I am now Slowpoke Rodriguez.
*Sound effects for arena were the best.

hmm...

Attempt to reanimate one of the dead occupants. We need more answers than a sycophantic computer can offer.

Considering the computer and the ship are one and the same, it probably has more answers about itself than a body and mind separate from itself

Not necessarily.

The ship will have pertinent information on how to operate itself, but it has no need to be able to wax philosophically about the ultimate reasons it was constructed, or to meaningfully explain any of the historical circumstances leading up to its creation, or to warn about any consequences of its activation.

Yeah I mean, let's give it a go.

I expect necromancy is a separate discipline from hemomancy, as it generally is in DF, but no harm in trying.

Indeed, I dont know if we can either... That's why I said "attempt".  It never hurts to try-- AND, since the reanimated body would essentially be a blood puppet, if it gets cocky, we can just put it down with a thought.

More dangerous though, is that the device we are in has a giant "Sign of Armok" sigil pulsing and glowing on the floor. The last time a symbol like that got blood on it, things got real, real fast.  Be careful around this one, M'kay?

(There is probably a REASON that this is the "Clara III", and not the "Clara I". Just sayin.)

A valid point.

Anyway, last comment on the live reading, I died when he did the voice for Noi and her feathered companions. 100% perfect.

Edit:
Seriously hearing that SQUAWK i'll spare you..... FOR NOW in a parrot voice is the most surprisingly threatening thing I've ever heard.

You should post here if you know another one of these is going to happen 8>
