Relapse Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Hey guys. I'm still here.Additionally, if it means anything, Matra had near-Pakari strength and near-Kakama speed. That's the top implants, only available to Techna, so yes, I think they are better than regular PCs as far as skills and equipment.But then again, he's dead....For now.

The Dark Chronicler Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Well, my Rahkshi is still in the tunnel system where Matradox is... so I don't know if I should have him see Takapolis or not, seeing as I don't want to do anything to interfere with the plot. If needed, I can just have him out on the surface with everyone else. I don't want to mess anything up, so I thought it best to ask first.

Toa Levacius Zehvor Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Considering unleashing a small horde of robots against the fourth best defended building in the city was just a single step in my plan; and assaulting the third (or second) best is just another, you would be right to fear what comes next.Including killing off all of the Techna, which seems only fair....(Though for the record I can think of ten ways off the top of my head to have stopped Gust)-Toa Levacius Zehvor "I disapprove of what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." - Evelyn Beatrice Hall (often attributed to Voltaire) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So right now Gust is the only one who's any real threat and he can still be disposed of. Factoring in the set-up, your only help would be the NPC guards and any PCs that decide to join in on the action, and in the scenario I have set up numbers would be meaningless.Yes, I believe I can do this. The fact you're questioning your players is a flaw on your part - the players are not supposed to go with the flow and choose 'Techna or Hacker?'. They can. It's recommended for going easy.

Not yet, anyway.And yep, people, I'm still here.-DovydasWell obviously I can't just kill them; otherwise we'd be putting players down right and left if we could. Being PCs, not NPCs, they're unkillable without consent, You need permission from the player to kill somebody off, unless you're the GM punishing somebody (though usually killing isn't the first punishment, and I still stand by my actions)As per your second paragraph, yes, I do understand that. It's better to have characters in-game deal punishment than random accidents, like falling into a sawmill.My statement 'Yes, I believe I can do this' corresponds to my belief that I have a set-up that will either get rid of my characters so I can start something more interesting (or have more time for other things at the very least), or, as I've stated many times, kill off/remove/imprison whateveri the Toa Techna and place my PC in charge of the city itself.(Also I thought we lost you to Skyrim forever.)-Toa Levacius Zehvor :flagusa:Not to make a complaint - wait, I'm always complaining - but the last offense I made, which was undeniably the third based on statements, was -MeA field of electricity emerged to intercept any fired shots, enough to slag them, as once more, Gust was attacked with total paralysis.Which stated 'attacked', meaning that Gust could have simply overcome it (being subjected to two attacks already, he would likely be able to resist it); as per making a saving throw versus an attack.

Relapse Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I don't think you understand. Your character isn't supposed to be in charge. That's what the staff are for. To run the game. Now, I'm not saying your character can't have a personal agenda (which isn't what I said the first time, but whatever) I'm saying I don't think LL wants that agenda to rule. He has plans.
