Isn't Vex from the UK

tame tide
#

Yea

balmy obsidian
#

Yeah

#

I like Vex. No destruction of Britain.

#

I also like Al and Snicker and Pixel. They're cool.

tame tide

#

Actually I'm not cool

I'm quite warm rn

Had a wholesome idea come up while chatting with one of my players of an NHP support group sorta thing on Hells Gate. NHP gets cycled, and all the others on station gather up with them and bring them up to speed. "Hey you tended to go by this name with us, you're really good at so and so, and like working on x and y" sorta thing

minor orchid
#

NHP therapy-

#

oh dear

formal gale
#

Yeah! Like I'm sure each one has their own personal journal or memory bank or whatever to preserve their skills and abilities between cycles, but I think this sorta support group idea makes sense cuz I've gotten the impression that community building is super important in Calliope

#

That whole "we are struggling TOGETHER" feel

minor orchid
#

it damn is

#

and honestly I can picture it omg

tame tide
#

I don't think Cycling is meant to be massively mind wipe like...

minor orchid
#

it does not but you certainly end up missing a bit there and here

#

I do imagine the group can be more focused on making sure everything's good :>

formal gale
#

Yeah less of a rebuilding of personhood more of a quick check in / bringing up to speed I imagine

cobalt zealot
#

Cycling can be whatever you want

#

It's not hard specified

cobalt zealot
#

Some people fluff it as just reconfiguring the shackling constraints

#

Helps keep the NHP stable more than anything

#

And able to use a "humanlike" reference frame

limber fossil
#

seems like such a cop-out to me yk

balmy obsidian
#

Pfah, Cycling. I'm too good to need to be cycled.

#

It may be a cop out but I'd rather a cop out than a "Your best friend gets amnesia every 10 years or so, isn't that cool and good for character development :)"

dire cloud
#

Canonically, cycling is sleep and Sisyphus is a drama queen.

minor orchid
#

Ha Ha

tame tide
#

Like, Cycling is vague that it can be what you want... Wallflower (I don't think this is spoilers but I'ma be safe) ||mentions it at somepoint and there aren't any drastic changes as a consequence to the cycling itself||

There's the debate of is Cycling killing someone then uploading their mind to a new person? Do they forget everything? Legionnaire states it can be aggressive as a method of a PC removing burdens to reshackle them... It can be mind wiping but I personally don't like it as that...

NHP's are already slaves, a massive consequence to the imperealism of the second committee that is now a pit so deep 3rd comm can't climb out of it, they suffer by being forced to experience life humans....

#

Making their situation more shit than it already is is something I just don't really want in my games lol

#

Well, as the norm atleast

formal gale
#

100% fair

limber fossil
tame tide
#

I just like to treat cycling as comparable to sleeping, but like... tenfold kinda

limber fossil
#

it's why i find that bit fascinating in the core book where it mentions how the golden rules mention humans in particular

#

or uhh pillars

tame tide
#

You only sleep once every 5-10 years or smthn... therefore I imagine it's like mega sleep

formal gale

Put a beeeeg blanket over the casket while they sleep

You can say that you're the one that says the truth, but then still lie.

We can both lie

No because I took up the other job of gate guard who can only tell the truth

One detail I didn't mention is that as soon as someone presented a theory even wilder than hers she immediately dropped the accent and went "What? No. Are you stupid?"

If you can think of some tech that Union might try Tom has said the Vol have already probably built it and can potentially sell it

supple carbon

That's very cool

Have they done something notable?

shell bison

They are the origins of the blink gates (Think mass teleporter tech for galatic supply chains) in the setting and are amazing diplomats

#

They unironically have been able to broker deals that most Union officials cant

supple carbon
#

Damn, that's impressive, very impressive

shell bison
#

They have (Potentially) the biggest ship in the long rim for trade labeled The Bajamesa that goes around and offers trade upon their own request. You don't ask them to trade. They offer it when they show up. They are also known to be pacifist in nature which is where the Sparri mercs hired to be body guards come in.

In case i play another character in Lancer in the future, what's the most gambling mech

noble ivy
#

pegasus with the Engineer talent?

clever cloud
#

no wait that's the opposite of a gambler!

dire shell
#

My thought would be "unraveler with OpCal"

#

But as for the mech idk

noble ivy
#

Tokugawa but you never take heatfall coolant system

supple carbon
#

It's not know here but im a GAMBLER™

With untreated but managed LUDOPATY™ (not really)

And im gonna take notes

supple carbon
noble ivy
#

Tokugawa lives and dies in the danger zone and each time you overchrage you gain more heat per roll

#

to a max of 1d6+4

supple carbon
#

Okay yeah this seems something i would like, im gonna keep it in mind

formal gale
#

If you're open to homebrew there's a really good one in intercorp. One of its systems is you try to call how much heat you'll roll on an overcharge and if you're right you don't take it

noble ivy
#

Heatfall coolant is a core bonus that makes your max overcharge just a 1d6

But... if you want to gamble just keep rolling 1s until you explode

supple carbon
#

I already took nuclear cavalier so im pretty happy with how overcharge works

#

But heatfall coolant, now that's sounds great

west phoenix

Even with nuke cav i don't think you want to risk 1d6+4 overcharges

I honestly want a solid HA defender/brawler that actually has defensive options for their teammates unlike the enkidu and can play the game unlike the saladin

I want an HA tortuga or white witch i guess lol

brawler as in fistfight or?

cause you might like the kutuzov if "brawler" just means "hitting hard sometimes"

Brawler Barb

The drake is one of my favorites because it has all of these defensive options but also a giant fucking minigun

Kutuzov is nice because you can blast someone with the displacer, then when you reload with a stabilize you get to clear conditions off of an ally

True true, it's next on my list, whenever that may be
