I'm going to assume that it was mentioned what Tormond's stats are on the Discord Channel? Can someone either share what we know about them on here, or give me a link to where they were already mentioned on here?
… Because I'm very interested in finding out. Especially as it sounds like he's got 'good' martial. For a Rotbart. But then did the 'Roll 4 Sixes' for Intrigue...
Also, seeing as the 'Tormod is not to...' list was canonized. Might giving more detail on Jessie?

Sadly no. That picture came from me insisting that Tormod grew up to be very androgynous, due to a misreading of the sidestory omake about him. Us on Discord are still just as ignorant as to his stats as you are.

not really, the level of physical superiority over Avernites is near nonexistant and being bad at working with groups, or existing in society would be a massive minus

@Durin, wait, so we've reached the point where Avernites are genetically physically superior to normal humans?
On the social, they're not bad at working with groups, they're just optimised for smaller groups. That is, less than the 150-member groups that humans optimise for (which modern societies greatly exceed, I should note.) On average they'd be better at squad-based tactics than humans for sure, and on a societal level, well, some humans are below-average in social skill, but they can exist in and contribute to society effectively nonetheless.
EDIT: To be clear, I'm dropping the idea. Just talking about stuff, now.

andres you've been watching tierzoo haven't you.
My headcanon is that thunder warriors augments are derived from neanderthals DNA.

I have, and also you pinged the wrong person.
Call it natural selection, survival of the fittest, what have you. Avernus has a habit of weeding out negative traits and promoting positive ones through a liberal application of blink spiders and other wildlife, so those who live to establish a bloodline tend to be peak human. That and whatever direct effect the planetmind may or may not have.
They have had 360 years and about 16 generations of that, and it shows.

yes, it may be as risky as the Primordial Sea though

low risk
- Location
- Earth
So, to summarize:
Low risk (do freely, intermix with world cleansing if the DDs don't line up, no DD required):
1. Eldar Pantheon
2. Sanginour
3. Malal
4. Primarchs (already on plans)
5. Curses
6. True names
High risk (wait until the vault is done, must at least DD, TD if possible):
1. Primordial Sea
2. Well of Eternity
In other words, the low-risk action list, while nowhere as bad as the Telepathica and Munitorium implementation planning backlogs, still has the "too much stuff, too little time" issue. I know that there have been arguments that some of these might not give us anything of value, but we can always give the information Lin gets to the Eldar and other sane major human polities. This might as well be our last great contribution to the galactic state of affairs if we fail the Tyranid campaign. Also, the Emperor won't be reborn for millennia, so once Lin dies, we won't be able to do this research for what may as well be forever on the timescale we're working with. Can we please not waste Lin's time with something any run-of-the-mill Deacon or Ecclesiarch can do?

Primarchs true names and curses as well.
Are these references to established characters? If not, mind if I snag one for an omake? Specifically for one of Solvi's kids?

Wait, did Durin say that true names and curses were options for Lin?

Yes, although True Names is something Ridcully may get more out of.
So 53 (mean of piety and learning) +35 (traits) +10 (Areatha) + 20(double down) +20( triple down) = 138
138- 75 = 63 chance of success for primordial sea. I am hoping that we get 20 from all the other diplomat actions, Eldar, grey knights and people of Avernus. Giving us 83 percent chance of success.
Also something for a critical we need 165 over the -75 so we need to roll a 240 to get a critical. Another thing is no reroll so we have to roll above a 37 or something bad happens.

hm...if anyone can throw down some omakes in prep for the sea-action....now would be a good time to start building up the pile.
if we can get 3 put down we cut failure rate in nearly half and thats before the diplo actions. (I recall from previous o-makes that it seems like durins rule of thumb being about +5 per o-make...I want to say its around 500-1000 ish words in such a o-make....but I don't have word-o-durin to back that up)
If we are doubly lucky we can prevent luck from even coming into play for this roll with both o-makes AND diplo actions by getting the chance of failure below 0. (at least in theory...who knows what durin has in mind for this roll).
a good focus would be to o-make the diplo action's into having something to help us with (there is very real possablity that durin has no plans to give us any buffs for the sea action at the moment....so o-making such into existence would obviously make the difference). perhaps some kind of potion from the nynin or the eldar having a yogo-dance of some kind that stablizes the mind.....
Of course, if we crit, we would want the o-make bonus's to possibly get us to a total of 240 (we would need about 102 at the moment for our roll...so just 1 omake could give us a crit-window)
