Just my two cents on the coversation of Eggman mentality

Yeah at the end this is a journey we will find in the answer on our own and that is fine by me.

We do have some bases to go off for character development after all.

Sage was the first big attempt to really try to make Eggman look like the human being he is rather that a very dangerous saturday morning cartoon villain.

Belle has made Mr Tinker at least resurface for a little and that is affecting Eggman as we have seen in quest.

Then you have Stone, it may have been movie Eggman, but that Eggman outright saw Stone as a true friend he enjoyed to have around even if he didn't admit it outloud is something that no doubt will influence Eggman to open more as he starts meeting people he can actually tolerate, even if the events of the 3rd movie didn't happen on this quest, that idea is still there.

We can still be evil, but when you start caring about others then you start having second thoughs when the consequences of your actions may also affect them.

We are not at that point yet, but we will probably reach it eventually.

At the end, it may not justify his actions, but once you pierce together Eggman history he has damn good reasons in his mind to not trust anyone but himself with the actual control of the world.

Gotta thanks old GUN for that, since everything can be traced back to the ARK colony massacre and how it completely broke an entire family.

Eggman at the moment is adapting, cause he knows he cannot pull out the old stunts right now with what little resources and many factions out for his head at this moment, how much that changes Eggman it will be seen at future.

Besides it is by our choice, our own freedom we decided to be this way, just because the blue rat tells us we can do better it doesn't mean we will because he told us, but because we chose that path.

Something from a transformer fic I found recently that really describes the freedom Sonic preaches so much more in a neutral tone than his goody two shoes tone.

Every Soul, no matter how small or ephemeral, has the gift of Free Will. No matter how much a God may try, no matter the intent they have, they cannot strip this away. That is the Will of Primus. Life is Disorder. It does as it wishes, for good or for ill.

Now onto the Knuckles talk.

Yeah I rather not poke that island at the moment, Knuckles is honestly one of the guys that scares me the most as he can easily come and go break all our work in half if we take the Master Emerald.

Like not that it is worth much, the more mystical properties of the Master Emerald is locked to the guardian itself, meaning we would actively need Knuckles to really use it on other ways other than a big ass battery.

Without couting that I don't want to deal with Archie echidnas, especially the dark legion which is pretty much like the empire, but on echidna flavor.
 
Knuckles is scary
There's a reason people tend to avoid fighting him face to face
He's probably at like 35 power
It's easy to forget in the modern era, but in his initial appearance, Knuckles was framed as a rival to Sonic, and beat the absolute shit out of him in their first encounter. He might be slower and a bit less quick-witted than Sonic. But he's also packing more brute force than the rest of Team Sonic combined. He can dig, treasure hunt, smash our bots to pieces, and if we take Sonic Heroes into account (Which, I don't blame you if you don't. That game was a bit crazy) he has some degree of geokenisis. How else do you explain him punching the ground and summoning lava?
 
Yeah, we'll probably deal with knuckles later possibly after we get our empire back and take over the green hill zone.
The thing is we might need the Master Emerald to use against Selvaria. If Maxi feels desperate enough he will blow her up, and if she is filled with Chaos Emerald power we will really need something to deactivate that power before she turns half our empire into a crater.
 
I know that I'm just saying once we have a decent amount of our affairs in order and turn our attention towards taking over the Greenhill zone. It's not gonna take a genius to figure out knuckles will try to do.
What part of WE HAVE BIGGER FISH TO FRY
Did you not get
We have several world ending threats to worry about rather than conquering the entirety of green hills
 
The thing is we might need the Master Emerald to use against Selvaria. If Maxi feels desperate enough he will blow her up, and if she is filled with Chaos Emerald power we will really need something to deactivate that power before she turns half our empire into a crater.
That's why after turn five once we find Chuck and Chris we need to turn our attention towards the empire so he doesn't make super nuke
 
For the record I was not saying to steal the Master Emerald, just inflitrate the island at some point and see what's going on.

We really have no need for it and Knuckles won't really target us unless the Restoration becomes desperate and he finds a way to protect the Emerald while he is away.

Oh no is worse than that, normal Selvaria can blow herself up to probably blow up part of our empire.

A Selvaria juiced on a Chaos Emerald?

QM's have hinted that thing being a game over scenario for more than one faction, like literally wiping off green hills off the map.

We still don't know anything about the walking nuke IC yet.

But the moment we discover that they have a walking nuke that could potentially blow everyone out of the map, well a meeting with Knuckles could be on the table.

With everyone else probably with us on that meeting, cause lets be honest, the moment we discover this the stupid thing would be keeping that to ourselves.

We sent a copy of this shit to anyone that can actually understand it, aka only Tails as far as we know and wait for the response.

Cause there is only two ways to really neuther that shit.

We either ask for help or we spent a shit ton of time in combining both the chaos cannon and the life force sucking machine from Unleashed and Lost world on a smaller scale and really, really hope Selvaria can be contained with that shit while we point the energy to any of our enemies.
 
Or we try to steal the chaos emerald from the empire before they can make any more progress with it. That's why probably after turn five we should either infiltrate the palace or look for the conch.

Because the moment once we find out, they are messing with a chaos emerald in character. There is no doubt Eggman would try to take it back.

It's very explicitly been said it won't be easy by the qms
 
FULL MOON Part 2: Do you believe in Gravity?
Winning vote:
[x] Tell me, what is in store for I, Doctor Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik?

"So, your boss wants to know what is in store for him?" Elizabeth asks, as she taps her chin in deep thought. "A bit typical and common question I must say, but I can understand the human fascination to know about their future." Elizabeth nods as she claps her hands, making the book close one more time.



"Well, let's see what fate the cards have in store for Eggman, shall we?"



And with another flourish, the book opens once more, and 3 cards materialize, all in face down position.

"Let's see what the past has to say." Elizabeth comments as the first card is revealed. "The Justice… In his past, your boss made a decision regarding a person, I don't know who that person was or what decision he took, but there will be a time of reckoning, where a due shall be paid, and Eggman can't escape from it. He will need to be wary when that time comes." Piastol stares intrigued at what the card revealed.

"So, someone from his past will come for some payback then? Not that surprising with what I've heard of him…" Piastol comments, as she crosses her arms.

"Yes, that is true. But this card refers to someone significant for your boss, whether he is aware or not of that connection doesn't matter. What does matter is that a choice was taken, the person was slighted and justice needs to be exacted…but whose justice it is, they do not say." Elizabeth explains calmly as she moves for the next card.

"Now for the present, what your boss is dealing with currently." The card was flipped, allowing both women to see the newest card. "The Emperor reversed… Eggman will need to contend with a figure in position of authority, one whose way of thinking is rigid, with a domineering attitude that looks to eclipse all."

"While this figure and Eggman haven't met yet, each of them have been affected by the other and a confrontation is imminent. It shall be a battle to see whose authority and reign is true. It might not happen today, but eventually, a clash of wills…and of egos, shall happen!" Elizabeth exclaims happily as she explains the card to Piastol.



"So…the boss will have to contend with a head honcho from someone in Green Hills? Again, I'm not that sure this is something that…" Piastol stopped for a moment, trying to find the right words. "Revealing?"

"It may seem that way to you, and you might be right, the cards don't always reveal new information, but things that we either choose to ignore, or refuse to accept." Elizabeth explains. "The threat this figure represents it's not evident for Eggman, in fact, it will take time to reach its peak, but it is on its way, no doubt about that." The fortune teller explains as she reaches for the last card.



"Hopefully the future might show us a more interesting sign." She says as the last card is flipped. "The Moon…the-" Elizabeth proclaims…but then she stopped as she looked at the card with a weird look, clearly lost at the moment.

"What's wrong now?" Piastol asks, realizing this is the first time in the whole reading that Elizabeth was left dumbfounded.



"I'm sorry, it is just.. I don't think I have ever seen this in a reading?" She explains dubiously as she taps the card. "Apparently, the moon is set to appear in the future of your boss…"



"What does that mean?" Piastol asks, wanting to get to the point. "The moon itself is a danger for him?" She scoffs at that.



"Exactly as you say." Elizabeth nods, and Piastol can't help but blink her eyes, not expecting that. "Not only will the moon represent a challenge for this Eggman, an encounter shall take place there, one that may or may not put a stop to his life."



"...You are not joking." Piastol says incredulously.



"Of course not! This is what the cards reveal!" She says solemnly. "They also mention something about some type of…liquid laser? It's too vague even for me…" She says a bit unsure at the last part.



Piastol sighs. "Fantastic." She mutters, no way Eggman would believe this type of warning.



"I'm deeply sorry if this reading was not as satisfactory as the previous two." Elizabeth says as the book closes again, but immediately opens a 4th time. "For this, I shall do one last reading for a future adventure some colleagues of you will embark on. I hope this helps them."



The Bounty Hunter isn't surprised anymore that Elizabeth knows about that mercenary and Belle's plans to travel to this Tokyo-to anymore.



"The first card…The Wheel of Fortune, reversed." Piastol stares at the newest card revealed. "I'm afraid to inform you that the start of this adventure will be met with bad luck, events outside of their control shall make their endeavor several times more difficult than imaginable. As much as they try to prepare, the incoming storm will be something they must surpass, if they cannot adapt in time, their quest to find this Maria shall fall before it even starts."

"Next, the Magician." Once the card is revealed, Elizabeth's eyes brighten. "Luckily, The wooden girl and the mercenary will have all the tools and resources available to reach their goal. The young Maria shall be found and several treasures and opportunities inside the city shall be known to the party, ready to be obtained!" She says excitedly.



"And for last…the Hierophant, in reverse position." At this, Elizabeth's face becomes more serious. "At the end of their quest, the status quo will be changed permanently…" She starts, an intensity in her voice that caught Piastol off guard. "Somehow, by someone, a change shall occur, a rebellion will take place and the rigid structure of the City shall be tested and found lacking…but I cannot guarantee that this change will be good or bad, nor what part they shall play. Either your colleagues are the reason for this change…or the victims of it." Elizabeth finishes as the book closes one more time.



"I'm afraid this will be the last reading for today. My services won't be available for now." The former attendant replies to Piastol, as she gets up.



The bounty hunter does the same, looking at Elizabeth, who seems to move to the back of the tent, looking for something. "Don't worry, you have…helped me enough today." Piastol says, not used to saying those words. "For what is worth… thanks. I…needed that, I suppose." She looks away, not willing to look at Elizabeth in the face, hiding a blush as she does so.



"Oh no need to thank me! In fact, I must be the one to thank you!" Elizabeth says as she returns to the table, with a small wooden box in hand. "It has been so long since I have had a reading this… exciting! I hope you find what you are looking for."



"Still, before you leave I have a proposal for you, Piastol." Elizabeth says as she opens the box, digging for something.



"...Depends on what you want?" She says warily.



"I want to learn more about your fashion sense!" She exclaims with enthusiasm, literal stars in her eyes. "I have never met someone wearing such an intimidating and bold style! You must simply tell me your secrets!"



"You want to…learn more about my clothes?" Piastol asks as she looks down at her body, not getting why Elizabeth would be interested in such.



"Yes! I believe we can do…a so-called "Girl's Night" even!" Elizabeth whispers the last part, in clear excitement. "I must simply try this fashion sense!" She says as she retrieves a card from the box. "I'm even willing to pay you handsomely for it! Your boss can even get access to this type of service…for a price of course." She holds the card for Piastol to take. "Behold, a fragment of might from the Sea of Souls!"



Piastol reaches tentatively for the card, grasping it, she inspects it, curious of what Elizabeth meant. "Sea of Souls…ehh? What exactly does this do?" She asks just when she notices a word inscribed in the card: Rakukaja.



At that moment, the card is set ablaze in Velvet Flames, getting consumed in a matter of seconds, but before Piastol can react, a sharp pain courses through her head.



"Aaaarrghh!" She shouts, the pain being nothing that she felt before, having to lean on the table to not fall over. "W-what was that?"



"You will find this power is called Rakukaja, a spell to reinforce one's defenses and brave any attack from their opponent!" Elizabeth exclaims, making a pose. "I believe this will be helpful for you in future fights."



Piastol wants to shout at Elizabeth and tell her to start making some sense, but as the pain subsides, information seems to come out of nowhere…it's not long until she feels as normal…but this time, the bounty hunter feels different.



"Power from the Sea of Souls, eh?" Piastol smirks. "I could get used to this…"



"Glad you seem to enjoy this gift!" The fortune teller comments as she retrieves the box, taking it back to where she got it from.



"Unfortunately, I will have to leave soon…my stay here wasn't meant to be forever. But do not worry! Each few months I will make time to come visit, and if your boss is interested, my wares shall be available for him." She explains as she regards Pìastol one last time.



"Young Angel of Death, may fortune bless you and your destined meeting goes without any hitch." Elizabeth intones as she bows in a sigh of respect.



Piastol doesn't say anything as she starts exciting the tent, but a rare smile could be seen in the Reaper's face.




Piastol and Eggman have obtained advice about their future. Apparently, the Moon is an enemy of Eggman!



Piastol has learned Rakukaja (1 AP cost) in battles, Piastol can use this to gain a bonus at resisting for a limited time!



Each 3 turns, Elizabeth will come to Green Hills and offer Eggman the chance to buy Skill cards for him or his hero units! They will cost income and the rarity and type of skill cards will be randomized.



Piastol obtained a Personal Action to hang with Elizabeth!


QM NOTE: Believe it or not the Moon was the third card…we could not help but do this XD.
 
Let's see what the past has to say." Elizabeth comments as the first card is revealed. "The Justice… In his past, your boss made a decision regarding a person, I don't know who that person was or what decision he took, but there will be a time of reckoning, where a due shall be paid, and Eggman can't escape from it. He will need to be wary when that time comes." Piastol stares intrigued at what the card revealed.
Alright whisper
Now for the present, what your boss is dealing with currently." The card was flipped, allowing both women to see the newest card. "The Emperor reversed… Eggman will need to contend with a figure in position of authority, one whose way of thinking is rigid, with a domineering attitude that looks to eclipse all."
Goji so we have forewarning of his attitude
I'm sorry, it is just.. I don't think I have ever seen this in a reading?" She explains dubiously as she taps the card. "Apparently, the moon is set to appear in the future of your boss…"
THE MOOOOOON
This one is actually the most useful cause it tells us theirs some threat on the moon

As for the rest
Seems we're gonna fuck up gojis shit lmao
 
OK, OK from what I can tell from the reading clearly we're going to be dealing with someone from our past my best guess is our nephew due to us kicking him out. The person we're going to have to contend with as a figure of authority is ironically Commander Walter is my guess because we're going to be meeting gun during the rival reports.

The moon very obviously represents whisper, and her assassination attempt against us.

But for the reading for our adventure in Tokyo to seems like we're going to be dealing with some challenge. I really hope we start a rebellion in that city so it can distract captain no fun there
