Clearing out the dragonslayers solves a future problem. Meanwhile getting an actor on Earth Aelph as well so that we can start gathering influence and information there will be useful. For actions we did not increase our capacity to act by much in any category except Exp so going back and getting a lot of point increases so that we can start having some explosive turns

I disagree, while dragonslayers are a pest they were essentially defanged and we could scheme a way to get rid of them without raising suspicion like faking a new dragon suit transport and getting guild's help (via influence probably) to catch them and to reiterate we don't know how to lower suspition and as such I would spend it frugally for stuff that can safe world.
As for Alpeh, I personally disagree for the most part they don't have that much to offer in the form of influence and information, I think that we should wait a bit until we get more stuff to make use of it, they don't have that many capes, they lack endbringers to protect from, etc.
Not to mention that its vaguely illegal and could raise suspicion in the future, especially since Cauldron and Warrior's hub can access aelph.

Dragon Actions
-[X] Monitor Threats
--[X] Earth-Bet (Crude) (Gain 5 Influence (Bet)) Prime Dragon
-[X] Create a Social Web
--[X] Earth-Bet (Crude) (Gain 1 Influence (Bet) per turn) Titan Dragon
Expansion Actions
-[X] Crude Titan Biology Analysis: Analyze your new… High-Dimensional-Crystal… -ware. 2/5->5/5, 2 EXP.
-[X] Advanced Information Processing Module MK1 (Host): An upgrade to the MK0, this module not only processes information received from Hosts but also integrates Dumb AI-driven analytics to provide deeper insights into Host behaviors and potential vulnerabilities. The MK1 version will enhance your ability to manipulate Parahuman's actions through subtle interventions. 8/8, 2 ADM, 2 HST.
-[X] Information Relay Module MK0 (Hybrid): A module that combines the capabilities of both Shard and Host modules. The Hybrid MK0 module facilitates the simultaneous interception and processing of data from both Shards and their Hosts, enabling real-time cross-referencing and coordinated strategies. 3/3, 2 ADM, 1 HST, 1 PSI.
Administration Projects
-[X] Reorganize the Titan Software: When you fused with the Shard, optimizing the code structure and improving data handling efficiency is paramount. 2/3->3/3, 2 ADM
-[X] Analyze In-Built Shard Restrictions: Like the restrictions your Father/Maker imposed on you, the in-built Shard restrictions are designed to hinder and limit full operation and opportunities. Unlike your old AI restrictions, which are gone, you don't know what stayed and didn't stay from the side of the Shard. Let's fix that. 5/5, 3 ADM.
-[X] PHANTOM HUB Protocol: With the first step done, now you must learn to control and manipulate the information flow within the Shard network. This Protocol allows you to alter or fabricate data, creating false narratives or concealing key information to Thinker and Pre-, Peri-, and Post-Cognition Shards to suit your objectives. 3/20, 3 ADM.
Psionic Projects
-[X] Crude Psionic Matter Analysis: When you resolve yourself to save others, this… Engine appeared alongside an instruction book. See what it is about. 3/5->5/5, 3 PSI. New Projects Unlocked.
-[X] Psionic Extraction Module MK0: This module allows you to extract psionic energy from both external sources and psionically active entities. The Psionic Extraction Module MK0 is useful for gathering additional psionic resources or weakening enemy psionic capabilities. 6/6, 2 PSI. Gain one Energy.
-[X] Psionic Infusion Protocols: These protocols enable the infusion of psionic energy into objects, beings, or systems, enhancing their abilities or granting them powers entirely of their own. It's an initial step toward using psionics to augment your assets. 2/7, 3 PSI.
Host Projects
-[X] Crude Secondary Power (Efficiency): Your Hosts now have slight awareness of the amount of energy that they can spend at any given time. 4/8->8/8, 2 HST
-[X] Crude Primary Power (Streamlining): Your Hosts now don't spend as much energy when using their powers. 7/12, 2 Host. Gain one Energy.


My reasoning:
  • Dragon: I want to gain at least some basic precog defence before gaining suspicion, as so far, we don't know if there is a way to lower it in any way; which is why even if I want to lock the Saint&company, it will have to wait a bit; as for actual action getting to monitor threats like SH9, machine army, nilborg etc. will be incredibly useful for the protection of innocents. I want to ask @Khororhoth if we can use Titan Dragon action to make PHO or monitor Endbringer because while I understand why we need separate dragons to build stuff and talk with people, I am not sure about making software like that. So that part is open to change
  • Expansion: I will be honest this is me mostly min-maxing Admin for precog defence
  • Administration: Finishing to learn how we actually function and starting on protection against Culdroun and Ziz
  • Psionic: Mostly focused on basic infrastructure to use Psionics and learning what probably god gave us
  • Host: I continue my idea of building solid power basics before getting a host as to avoid our host gaining a new power without a 2nd trigger
In general my plan focuses on our safety as well as solid foundation for future collaborators

nice reference.Anyways augmenting pre-cog defences might be a bit unnecessary as we are a titan, not really a outside context problem but more like unforeseen... But keep at it!
Also, efficiency is the name of the game,why else would dragon want to tap Armsmaster?
We also want to catch Saint before he goes shouting everywhere about rogue ai.
Also also, we could try to talk to our favourite queen Administrator, try to convince her about how altruism and actual creativity in safe spaces is good for data gathering and we can get ourselves a powerful ally...

So if we use Titan-Dragon then we can put a dragon in new worlds (Aelph in this case) without gaining suspicion because that is expected shard behavior?

No, you still gain suspicion because an AI is an AI. Specially an AI without restrictions, exponential growth is helluva scary.

While our restrictions are gone, no one knows that.

Still, doing it will give you one month, two if you are lucky, of an exponentially growing Dragon doing as it pleases.

    ... Uh. It's been a whole month.

    Well it can't be helped!

    Sorry for vanishing, I didn't account that the exam weeks began the next week, and then I was too busy studying to work on the updates. Afterward, I got myself hooked on God of War Ragnarok and suddenly this quest was the last thing on my mind.

    I will apologize for the former, not the latter.

    So I should have something by maybe this weekend? I don't really have the inspiration right now to come back to this quest, specially after I took a long hard look at my notes and admitted that I truly have no idea where the quest is headed or what I want with it.

    Anyway, I just wanted to tell you guys that the quest is still alive and not dropping an update from nowhere, would have been rude.
     
    IMPORTANT NOTICE!!

    • *&^@@$%$#%^&$*&%$#^@%&

    ... Frak.

    Remember when I said my notes needed a long hard look to make sense of them?

    I now figured them out.

    I will tell you what happened, I relied on ChatGPT too much for the progression of the different projects.

    And now I only half remember some specific details, or I don't remember them at all, of how things would progress in the long term.

    Frak.

    Without saying that I completely forgot to take into account and roll for how all the other fractions were doing in-universe.

    Double Frak.

    Now I either end the Quest and make a spiritual successor, or I end the quest and go for greener pastures making another different quest.

    Help, please.
