Strangers in a Strange Land [Mass Effect]

Reader mode
Just to give you an update on my progress (and to prove that I haven't been twiddling my thumbs doing nothing):

I tried writing-up the Nod character I mentioned, but I ended-up simply not having enough points for everything I needed in order for the character to work as intended. My idea was to take a Mobile Construction Vehicle as an Item, Blueprints for the most basic structures I need to get off the ground, and then enough Theories for me to boot-strap most of the Nod tech-tree. The problem being that I just haven't been able to squeeze all of it into the amount of points I have available. . . and that's without paying for any additional characters.

If you're interested, the Assets I was trying to get (taking my best guesses as to the cost) were:
Mobile Construction Vehicle (Item) (-40)
Electronic Video Agent (Item) (-20)
As much Tiberium as possible (Item) ([as many points as I could spare by the end])
Tiberium (Theory) (-30)
Tiberium Refinery (Blueprint) (-10)
Tiberium Harvester (Blueprint) (-10)
Tiberium Power Generator (Blueprint) (-10)
Tech Lab (Blueprint) (-5)
Nod Construction Technology (i.e. Nano-Assemblers*) (Theory) (-100)
Nod Cloaking (Theory) (-60)
Nod Lasers (Theory) (-50)

*of the "can build a main battle tank in minutes" variety

I'm currently in the process of making another character, this time from Eclipse Phase, and so-far it's going great. I'm deliberately avoiding the really setting-breaking tech, and as such I'm ignoring mind-uploading completely. That said, I'm very tempted to take a Nano-Bot Hive on the grounds that nanoswarms are awesome (they're not self-replicating, so it would only be mostly broken. . . :p).
 
I don't know what these will cost me, so let's see how many of these I'll get to keep.

Name: Rukino Saki
Appearance: Here
Virtue: "An Idol's Protection"
As a girl who had once been a top idol, Saki possesses the desire to protect the people around her. To Saki, caring for her friends and fans is her duty as an Idol.

Vice: "I'm Right Here"
As a girl who had once been a top idol, Saki longs for people to acknowledge and show her that they care for her. She is vindictive towards people who refuse to acknowledge her, or look down upon her.

Pillars:
I am an Idol - (2)
As an Idol, Saki wishes to love and protect those she cares for from afar, as it is an Idol's responsibility to spread her love equally.
Devotion to those she Loves - (0) Broken
When it all ended, Saki found that she had lost too much of what she had. Her best friend had betrayed her. Her fans saw her as a monster. And most importantly, the young man she fell in love with was dead.
Will you Marry Me? - (3)
Even though Haruto had died, even if he had said those words out of obligation for what he believes to have done to her, Saki could never forget that he had spoken them.

Oh man those are some optimistic price guesses! Like, all the buildings are easily twice as expensive or more. The MCV is basically a military-industrial complex in your pocket, and is probably actually multiple items in one with an estimated post-discount pricetag of ~100 points. Tiberium itself isn't exactly cheap either. It's both incredibly useful and incredibly deadly, especially as Nod. Also it has an obscene growth-rate. Easily another setting-breaker hovering around 80-100 points.

I don't think we'd even let you have gameplay nanofabbing timescales. Like, just nope. Not happening. Bump it up to a week or so, maybe.

Anyway, EP should be doable, as long as you're not lugging around too many theory/blueprint things.

The fundamental flaw here is that it isn't very interesting. AI with hunger for knowledge is just kinda... bland. Also the Virtue is a bit hard to translate into direct actions, and the Vice more so. They also seem more like impositions from an outsider than Virtues/Vices to the AI itself.

Anyway, basically, this is a pretty one-dimensional character. Try getting something that makes it more interesting.

Wow, that leaves me with... Just a tad less than a hundred points to spend. Nice. Anyway, here are my next asset ideas :

The Ruinous Powers look and laugh cruely as they watch their Chosen fight in their names. Any followers he gathers will slowly be rewarded by the Gods for their successes - or punished for their failures. These "gifts" typically take the form of mutations, slowly sending them down the path of becoming true Warriors of Chaos themselves - or mindless piles of rage and mutated flesh. It casts aside any doubt that Azatesh's Faith is anything but true and turns his followers into twisted warrior-ideals, no matter who or what they were before dedicating themselves to the Ruinous Powers. The Gods are notoriously fickle though...

Azatesh is not spared this scrutiny either. And while it takes far greater triumphs or failures to move the Gods in his case, the rewards and punishments are all the more terrible for that. (if say, he helps stop the Reapers from winning - which would cleanse the Galaxy of the touch of Chaos - he'd definitely be made a Daemon Prince) That being said, they will make their displeasure known if one of their greatest chosen is too cowardly to face a worthy foe in battle.


A richly decorated tome, bound in dragonskin with gromril reinforcements, its seemingly endless pages - a library's worth somehow contained in a single normally-sized Tome - being made of human skin and covered in the dreads symbols of the Dark Tongue of the Ruinous Powers and the Daemons. This Eldritch work posses a malign intelligence, the essence of a daemon chained to its pages. This intelligence is mostly loyal to Azatesh and will allow the tome to magically find its way back in his position, but similarily, should Azatesh offend the Gods(mainly Khorne) it may suddenly elude his grasp until he makes amends.
This dark work contains all the information required for a masterful ritualist to enact dark rituals without having to use a sorcerer - something every servant of Khorne is loath to do. From binding the daemonic to a material host - living, dead or inanimate - to making them manifest in the materium itself, to supplicating the Gods for specific blessings, like turning a mundane servant of chaos into a full-blooded Warrior of Chaos in one single transformation.

Of course, these blessings are not without their drawbacks. The ritual for forcing one to become a full-blooded Warrior of Chaos will turn anyone deemed unworthy into mindless beasts, from Chaos Spawn for the most unworthy, to Warhounds of Khorne or even Juggernauts for those that fall just short. Unless one is extremely picky in who one choses in a hundred supplicants(and they have to be volunteers), perhaps a fifth will succesfully undergo the procedure, with one in hundred amongst them being marked for greatness beyond being a mere Warrior of Chaos. Three or four in a hundred will fall just short and one in two will become Chaos Spawns, useful as disposable cannonfodder but little else, while the rest will not be useful for anything, safe perhaps for feeding the Chaos Spawns.

Summoning Daemons is also a very involved procedure. Summoning a weak spirit of the warp with barely more effect on the Materium than a poltergeist demands little more than a minute of chanting and a tribute of freshly spilt blood. Summoning even a Lesser Daemon, like a Bloodletter cannot be done without at least sacrificing a single sentient being. However, the bigger the ritual(and sacrifice), the larger a host is summoned, but as the host one wants grows larger, the ritualist needs more an more assistants(their skill is unimportant. their faith is, though) and the ritual takes longer and longer. Not to mention that tearing a gapping wound between the Warp and Reality leaves marks, and the more one uses that somewhere, the closer Materium and Immaterium become. In fact, it is possible to make them one on the scale of an entire planet, although that would require rituals involving hundreds of thousand of cultists. Not to mention that the reaction of any sane military to this will be drastic.

Summoning a Greater Daemon is perfectly possible, but on its own requires the self-sacrifice of a Warrior of Chaos(or the sacrifice of a rival Champion of Chaos) and hundreds of other sacrifices. Not to mention that these beings sit as far above Azatesh on the Chaotic totempole as Azatesh sits above mere cultists.

Binding a Daemon to a host takes less effort than summoning him, but the Daemon tends to strongly resent that and a failed binding(outside of an unbound Daemonhost) will lead to having to contend with an angry Daemon out to kill the Ritualist being unleashed.

Also, while this book cannot usually be stolen like usual theory assets, the more Azatesh uses this knowledge, the more the Pandora's box opens and it becomes easier for a determined/obsessed individual to find sources of such dark lore. Especially idealistic people out to understand and undo the works of Chaos - Chaos loves irony and the fall from grace narrative.
And since Chaos thrives on strife, these newly minted servants of Chaos will almost always be rivals and enemies.

That's a lot of fluff text I can't be bothered to read just now. Could you paraphrase what it practically lets you do? That's what we price off after all.

The batarians might well be crazy tinpot dictators ruled by effectively SVers with delusions of grandeur, but their military and counter insurgency capability is pretty good nonetheless. Again, interstellar polity versus tiny group ends badly for the tiny group.

I mean, you have options, yes, but moderate your expectations. The world isn't going to be acting any more stupid than it normally would.

Name: Flynn Walker
Appearance: [Casual] [Combat]
Virtue: "Making My Own Path"
They say I'm a hard man to get a handle on. Maybe they're right- I'm not much of a talker. I let my actions speak for me. Perhaps it'd be simpler if I took the easy path; but I can't. Even if it means fighting deadly foes or going up against society, to do the right thing and follow my heart, I'll forge my own way.

Vice: "The Cost of Victory"
How many have I been forced to slay for the sake of peace? Angels of heaven, demons of hell, deities of the land. It mattered not. To break the cycle of freedom and order, of destruction and stagnation, I even took up arms against my comrades. There was no price too high for the sake of salvation.

Pillars:
"Humanity" (3)
The choices I have made; the sacrifices I have had to suffer, it has all been in the name of humanity. The angels demand we obey without question and sacrifice those not chosen. The demons clamor for a world of chaos, where the strong rule and the weak are crushed. I refused both, and placed my faith in humanity, that it could rise against either extremes.

"Protector of the Masses" (1)
I was born of the Casualries caste, the laborers and workers of Mikado. When I became a Samurai, it was for their sake that I fought demons. And as I walked through the ruins of Tokyo, it was for the hopes of the survivors who clung to life that I continued my battles.

"The Middle Path" (1)
No matter how dire the situation, there is always another choice. It's just a matter of looking hard enough and fighting with all you have.

Eye of the Gods :
- Any people that get drawn to follow his banner slowly mutate as the gods grant them their blessings. Slowly makes them more dangerous warriors. However, if they are too weak(notably of will) or they draw the ire of the Gods they get blessed with suck or might end up as the insane bestial crossbreed of a shoggoth and a jabberwocky due to being so mutated that they become mere beasts.
- This is a proof that Azatesh's Gods are real, easing recruiting and increasing fanaticism.
- Azatesh is also subject to the whims of the Gods, although they need bigger events to actually care enough to bless him further/cast him down.

Esoteric Tome of Kharneth :
- A big theory bundle materialized in a necronomicon rip-off
- Can't really be stolen, but can disappear on its own if the Gods are displeased with Azatesh or they just feel like it.
- While it can't be stolen, someone determined enough to acquire the same knowledge will end up finding because there are never enough people corrupted by Chaos.
- The more Azatesh uses the theory, the easier it is for other people to find it. These peoples almost certainly won't be on his side unless he pulls a Genghis Khan(stomps them, so now they work for him) but will actively try to undermine him to gain favor with the Gods.
- Can force blessings of the Gods, but high rates of failure(IE, Chaos Spawns or even more useless).
- Can summon Daemons, but require 'human' sacrifices to summon anything like a bloodletter and up. Greater Daemons won't want to obey him.
- Can bind daemons to people or stuff, making daemonhosts/daemonically possessed items. Daemons don't like that, so better not botch the restraining rituals.
- Unleashing the Legions of Hell has a tendency of making the local environment(up to planetary scale, as making an Eye of Terror 2.0 is next to impossible) closer to Hell. This is good-ish for servants of Chaos(there'll be more influence of Chaos Gods other than Khorne, and they're not his friends, but also more blessings/daemons of khorne). Also, seeing the Legions of Hell march and a the environment literally go to Hell has been known to induce oribtal DEMOCRACY deliveries.
 
Sadly I couldn't find a quick reference video with all of KR: Wizard's spells. In general they're pretty quick spells, though, and not a huge AOE. The Barrier generally conjures up a round shield maybe 5 feet wide (if untransformed) or a square wall about 6-8 feet wide/tall (transformed).
It's kind of wonky because the strength and exact manifestation of a lot of spells relies on whether he's transformed, which Style he's in, etc.

Of course, not saying anything big would happen in anything that can be called a "reasonable" time-frame. Still, we all know where the Reapers come through first...and Velayne can definitely appreciate that cosmic joke.
 
So, I'm definitely interested in this, and was thinking of using Iji, from the game of the same name, but I'm currently on my phone, so typing a full character sheet is nigh-impossible, but I can provide feats for the variuos technologies in the setting if neither Usandru nor MightyDwarf are familiar with it.

EDIT: Lol, can't even type one sentence right.
EDIT2:Fucking Hell, autocorrect is stupid.

I know Iji, but only to the point of playing it once, and I don't usually obsess about the tech in things I read or play, so feats would be good. No rush though. Get yourself to a more decent machine first. :)
