Okay, and I just realized, @shenron , that you and me got a bone to pick.

You might not have known it, but you were accidentally trash talking Toph. Who indeed goes around barefoot and whose element is earth.

And that is a mistake.

A grave mistake.
 
Look, if our Mum is the sorta degenerate that goes barefoot around the wilderness on a hike, do we even want to associate with her? :/

Yeah, 'cause Toph turned out to be an amazing mother, right?

(fuck legend of korra)
 
Seriously though, a Mage version of Toph would be pretty cool.

The 'blind but can see using earth-senses' thing could totally be replicated easily enough.

And the metalbending would be her expanding her paradigm, logically. "Well, metal has earth in it..."

No.

That's totally different. Toph at least pretends to wear shoes with those ankle cape things she wears. Completely different.

It's not like she had a particular sterling example to follow from her own parents.

Not sure what else I can find on them.

The Wiki?
 
'Be reserved' has a better chance of winning, so I will switch my vote. Again. Happy with me dancing to and fro, @ZerbanDaGreat?

[X] Be reserved. You have no idea where you are or who you're talking with, not even a shred of context for what's going on. Refuse to talk until you have Dad in the room with you.

Hey, i am pretty sure bows are lawful in Australia.

Yet another advantage of gods over puny tool-dependant mortals.
 
[X] Be open. You don't have anything to hide, and if it helps them find Mum and keep her safe then you're more than happy.

I'm pretty sure there is still a path to having killer robots over being a killer robot and I'm also pretty sure that's preferable.

They're the group that thinks Anys Syn is right when she says that magic kung fu is the answer to everything, but blame the dragon-blooded for overthrowing the Solars.

:V

Honestly i hace zero interest in working for The TU if we can avoid it.

It isn't even a paradigm thing, it's just the whole secret dictatorship thing.

Also, the work conditions suck.

(Sure, the pay is good, but is not like you can spend It if you can't leave the suspension tank).

Any combatant in the Ascension War is not going to be a carebear. And Meg's talents basically lean him so far towards 'getting gud at fite' that he's basically railroaded into joining a combatant group. The Golden Chalice are terrorists, the Knights of Radamanthys are mercenaries who could probably scream "ANY DEED. ANY PRICE," House Janissary draft young wizards to get killed like this was XCOM (and are traitors and also terrorists), House Quaesitor is basically the 40k Inquisition with wizard hats, Cult of Ecstatic combatants are more like Fight Club meets Snowflame than carebears, Verbena are scary as fuck, VA Cyberpunks are also terrorists, Akashic Warring Fists tend to accumulate so much bad karma they need multiple lifetimes to pay it off (i.e. they're also terrorists), the Taftani are terrorists who deliberately target civilians...

You can have a nice, morally clean job in the Technocracy or the Traditions curing cancer or preaching New Age stuff or making robot arms for disabled veterans or advancing net neutrality. But that requires you to be the kind of person who isn't capable of murdering a werewolf and thus won't be pressured by superhumanly charismatic mentors into becoming good at fite.

Or

We could do our own thing.

You can either fight together, or die alone. Mages need people to watch their back-and if you spurn both sides, those people are in very short supply.

Q: What do you call a mage who does his own thing?

A: Joke's on you, corpses can't be mages.

Alt A: A Nephandus-in-waiting.
