Space is big.
Can I suggest something other than Star Wars, at least? Of course, if you already have plans there or want to go, it's fine. But if you are still thinking about it, I just don't find the setting all that interesting.

To be honest, it is too large for a lot of people. Literally massive number of inhabited planets, each with multiple planets worth of places to visit, not to mention space bases and stuff.

Without the Force or Fate messing with you, you could go to a new place every day and NEVER see a fight, jedi, sith, etc, for a life time.

That is how low the number of force users are. Even when actively hunting each other, it still takes time.

You could have a million SI's dropped into a million planets, and have NONE of them bump into each other. Even then, without Dues Ex Machina, Force, Magic, etc, you ain't going to bump into nothing.

Thankfully Adam's travel has the negative effect of showing up at interesting times and places.
 
I'd like to believe that one of the crimes becoming popular in the Worm universe is caused by the new Class of Robin Hood Phantom Thief. Multi-millionaires and aristocrats were reporting break-ins, though they refused to say what was stolen and there was no evidence except various taunting calling cards. Museums all over the world suddenly received donations of lost or previously stolen treasures. Legend wanted to complain about "Heist" missions, but couldn't really find the time.
 
One thing I would love to see, and that I have never seen, is someone taking over Atlantis (Stargate) before the Earth expedition arrives and then trolling them or something.. Adam and Co could have a lot of fun there, they could even continue with the religion stuff and mess with the Wraith AND the Ascended at the same time.

sigh It will never happen :cry:

I'd argue against this because you said they're SIs. There are maybe half a dozen 'key' planets and places that I remember from the movies that SIs would likely head to, if only to see the places in real life. Not to mention some of them would try to interfere with the plot and others would try to find out what interfered with the plot.

I've seen this a few times I believe. Two Harry Potters who take it over (one relatively untrained and is only there for a short time without really taking command, though after they arrive he takes the supreme councelor's room and has full city control locked to him, and another has him build loyal human form replicators under his command. Of course there are others where people take the city and SGC doesn't get to sent an expedition. I'm pretty sure there's got to be some where the new owner trolls the expedition properly and not just unintentionally though, this got me interested in trying to find it.
 
Im loving it, so to infinity and beyond now pfft.
If I could ever suggest a vacation pit stop undertale. depending on how you see the power of the characters it could basically be relaxing stop to study magic and magic lifeforms. (granted determination power levels depend on interpretation.)
 
And Sunbutt isn't? Do you have any names to suggest.
Sunbutt is basically popular canon at this point, among other titles, some nasty that she earned from the fans due to the love they have for Luna and disdain for Celestia...but...that's 'a song of fire and ice' that should probally be avoided.

Better question actually...which world do you reckon is going to be next?

He's got Technology/Surper-science, Magic and Faith/Spiritual. The only other thing that immediately comes to mind would be Psionics or Eldritch/Void.
And Biology I guess but that is covered by other things.
So maybe psycho 100 (not familiar with it tho) or Dishonored but if the non-human character keeps being a thing then I can Pokémon would be fairly littered with psychics and... I'm trying to think of Eldritch settings that don't immediately fall into Faith but still technically count such as Hellsing or the Darkness (video game).
Of course this is more slice of life stuff so probably Pokémon.

Edit: You still have not given any nicknames based on thy esteemed researcher's rear.

could always go to digimon as well "Look dragon I brought you some digital lifeform pets!"
 
Future travels?

Aside from the possibility of Star Wars, there are also some minor series and shows that I feel never actually get visited.
A lot of people head to Halo, or Stargate, or of course Naruto or Harry Potter.

And I won't pretend that those are not options.

No, I want this to be organically chosen by the story. A need that Adam has, then ask the transit method to pick something to help.

For example, I had NO plan on going to Inuyasha's Realm until the need for spiritual protection (Pretty sure Imperio is a soul based attack) was a theoretical possibility, as an example.

So I deliberately DON'T plan too far ahead or decide too soon, because I want the choice to be both accurate but interesting.

That said, after getting magic, spiritual powers, and lots of tech abilities Adam's tinkering options are low. Most require Worm Realm Entities to actually operate, so he needs to get some tech based on more logical science basis than what he currently works with. Oh, 'Technomancy' and 'Research' will help a ton, and Magic will let him cheat, but even if he copies the Tinker libraries he would need to drag moon sized crystal everywhere to make ships. It is inconvenient.

I'm actually wondering a bit...what kind of ability could he pick up if he were to attend the Grand Order? Foreigner servants pretty much define the phrase 'Beyond the Outer Gate'. Same effect could be gained from Fate/Zero thanks to Gilles de Rais shoggoth summoning book.

That's not even including the effects of something massive like Tiamat, who is essentially like the Omega from Final Fantasy 7 in concept or like the Entities themselves partially. Heck, shes definitely endbringer level. Then again, she would probally qualify for the harem at this point.

While I admit his tech options are low requiring shards to work, wouldn't any high tier tech universe have similar problems?
 
Travel Issues!

...And isn't Tiamat in Highschool DxD as well? Unless I am confused, she is in the familiar forest. Mother of all dragons and all that.

Huh. Wonder if they all share a common connection, or if they are just cases of similar ideas appearing around the globe at the same time.

Quite possibly! Some require special materials and ores to work, others require a psychic background radiation (Force), others need certain connections (Bifrost), etc etc.

That said, even the simple stuff that is looked over can be useful! Don't even get me started on how UNDER UTILIZED capsule technology from DBZ is.

Could probably stuff a trillion nukes or attacks into one pill to toss as a last resort. Would have worked easily early on in the series at least, considering how many human martial artists show up.

He would pick up the ability to be dead due to the Age of Gods being over in Fate and Gaia possibly along with Alaya actively hunting down and destroying anything out of the norm. Adam as a spiritual/magical being with his own mana generation would be a big no-no for the in-setting powers. Not to mention anything about the various other planetary beings.

At least that's what I think would happen.
So no, as sad it is he won't get a Saberface, there would be no Grail War for Adam.

Do the servants have physical meat and bone bodies or are they just physical ghosts.
If the latter, then do the Baku rangers count as Foreigner or something else.

You probably have a setting already picked but a few suggestions to throw out there would be Ratchet & Clank, Borderlands, Doom if you ignore the demons.

Edit:

True for settings like Mass Effect which have some sort of Miracalium or weird physics.
Not so true for things like Tony Stark's course of Engineering 101.

Ah, but the Grand Order ...Chaldeas atleast, exists outside of the worlds influence. The organization literally is an anomaly outside regular time while the earths history is under Incineration, and afterword, the Lost Belts are failed other timelines competing to become the dominate timeline of human history. Needless to say that mostly Gaia and Aaylas prescence is Null with the exception of Counter Guardians in a few singularitys like CCC. Tiamats time specifically is actually during the Age of the Gods, and is pointedly the moment when the main crew are the ones who ended the age of the gods by defeating her. Also we have Solomon's singularity which exists outside the time axis and allowed all of the servants to come together in one place even without being summoned. So yes, he could actually attend quite alot of the series. It just would be more dangerous due to conceptual weaponry.

Okay, I can definitely get behind Rachet and Clank. No one has done a worm crossover with it for some odd reason which is stupid because it's an exotic tinker's fantasy and comes with a robot that can nullify Greyboy's everything.

It would be interesting to see the effects of him taking the omnitool tech to another universe. It is such a useful and compact thing that there would be large changes to how things are done.
 
Arm Gadgets and why Inventories rock!

Gaming interfaces and tiny computers are very neat, true, but I find arm based equipment to have a fundamental flaw: Only the other arm can easily use it, unless it has mental connections. I prefer replacing eyeballs or modifying visual data on the fly for the screens/outputs/etc, then having mental inputs or virtual keyboards with mental 'key resistance' for input, like what Washu uses in the Tenchi universe. Her systems probably abuse multiple dimensions as well, and is convenient to use without limiting limb use or risking hardware damage if you get attacked.

Honestly, there is a far more useful feature of many 'Gaming' stories. There have been a few stories that focused on how over powered and godlike 'Inventory' can get.

Forever fresh food? The ability to sort materials, or search within them? Auto Harvesting? Some auto-process items that match a filter (Cook low quality meat), or auto-loot, or auto-convert-currency. I read one story where inventory could use energy to repair stuff, and the guy ran around a city collecting garbage to get raw materials for other neat stuff, such as pattern recreation (Oh yes, I would like another truck. Please drop it on those guys.)

True, but then they would be aiming more for a gun tinker then trying to do a short story of Lung the fire breathing sheep. And I personally can't think of how adding Taylor to the R&C verse will change canon besides the invention of the beeinator before it falls into endless world building to avoid canon.

I can't recall any stories that go into that much detail on inventory but they seem interesting. Can you recall any names or links?

I can think of quite a few ways...but mostly I just would love seeing her unleash the Ryno V and its glorious 'symphony' of destruction in a story oneday. Plus theres always the Sheepinator. The gun that turns its victims into sheep.

Atleast I didnt suggest Fortnite...Season X has introduced some WEIRD stuff like Rift Jars, Super Speed Tacos, and crouching to turn into Prop items.

Another thing I dont think I've actually seen in Worm is a Dark Knight Taylor. A Tinker/Thinker combo power if there ever was one. If she needed a power at all for such a legacy...Its kinda like Tony Stark, all you need is he memories for a self made hero. Same with a lot of DC Heroes actually. But feel like we got off topic a little.
