I always wondered how Squirrel Girl was the most powerful hero in Marvel. Obviously she traveled to Warhammer at some point and ate one of those acorns.

Jyn has expressed annoyance before about people constantly making joke corrections to his comments that misspelled something from dyslexia, it's a bit rude.Indeed. Enoir and Asari are not connected in canon, unless we got a hidden crossover going on.

I was under the impression the pre Matilde's info bomb this was mostly considered a small local matter that had the Tzar vaguely mobilizing for since he's a giant warhound that considers anytime not on an active war campaign to be The Worst (tm). The "oh shit this is an Actual Issue" mobilizing from everyone, including Boris, happened afterwards.
Well she's a Ghyran expert and literally the only one Mathy directly knows who can actually manipulate said wind so that's a big plus. And I legit think it's a misreading of her Character to assume she'd look at a once in a lifetime artifact and then puppy-dog eyes her girlfriend into letting her take it and toss it into a stew. Finally, assuming she can somehow use the acorn specifically (that the Waystone she can casually draw every from can't do) to revolutionize agriculture and soil management? I'd honestly want to give it to her at that point since that legit sounds like one of the biggest impact projects it can be used for. It definitely is compared to sitting around in storage gathering dust.
....Oh, I did not know that, apologies Jyn.

I mean, if a squirrel eating an acorn turns it into Ratatoskr then feeding it to a Halfling should turn them into Paul Bunyan.
Sounds like a good idea to me!

Completely separated from the whole discussion, I now want to see a puppy dog eyed Panoramia. Sounds fascinating.
Feed an acorn of the Oak of Ages to a dragon and an eagle, Asrai. They are key to balancing out the dread power of the squirrel.
And it would turn Wolf into Fenrir!
Then we wouldn't even need a shadowsteed
nah, it was funny.
I don't mind the one-offs/ or odd ones.
it was the handful of dogged repeaters that start to annoy me.
Perhaps not his greatest asset, as he probably has a few people working for him directly that may be as good in other ways. But yes, Mathilde does have a very good resume when it comes to building bridges with other cultures.
Maybe. The issue is that such beings can easily change their minds and decide after a few decades or centuries that they should be in charge now. I certainly would not trust vampires with their track record. It is a true pity, as they are an almost ideal anti chaos predator, too.
I would not be so sure on that ideal... in the long run feeding on animals and corpses can get a vampire to the point of looking like a Strigoi. I imagine that long term feeding off chaos corrupted mortals and animals would also have an effect, likely similar to feeding on Dhar... which is to say going insane.

Guys... the seed is Ghyran. Wolf is very ulgu by dint of being our familiar.
It won't end well.
It won't end well.
Bad idea, he is choke full of Ulgu and adfing Ghyran to the dystem will only lead to Dhar. Now if one of the Jade's familiar eats it, that could be interesting.
Yeah, the resulting Dhar just makes sure he goes full Fenrir. Never go full Fenrir.
Unless we cast off the weakness of the articles and finally create the Ulgu answer to Necromancy, ushering forth the age of our undying rule. Fenrir is perfect for that.

As much as I desperately want to bind Drycha, junping in blind without any preparation is a terrible idea, and I can't justify the extreme risk.
That said, the only practical use of such a binding would be inprisonment. We have to roll to control any Apparition-bindings we perform whenever we summon them; Drycha is too large a threat to have to roll against to "use". Worse than immoral, it would be a mistake.
If we did bind Drycha, the only reasonable course of action would be to transfer her to an object to imprison her, and then perhaps see if we can get her to talk - promising to save some trees in exchange for lore or somesuch. If she refuses, then we've still secured a hostile Legendary Lord. It would be a big deal.
Still, it's a big risk we weren't prepared for.

Binding Drycha has to be impossible. She's an Ulgu user and her bonds would be made of Ulgu.

It seems unlikely that this wouldn't occur to Mathilde, so given Boney's statement that there's no reason it can't be done in principle, this is apparently not the case.

If it was impossible, then Mathilde would almost certainly be aware of it and the option would not be there.
I would expect it to be very unlikely, but not impossible.
It'd be impossible if she was an apparition that ate Ulgu, but since she just uses uglu it should still work.
Oh, not feeding off of them, no. But in terms of just flat out fighting and murdering them? Vampires are amazing.
I imagine a "successful" binding of Drycha would basically be locking both of us into a perpetual mind war where we keep adding new restraints as Drycha breaks/slips from/disables them.

In the unlikely case that binding wins, and succeeds, i suspect our priorities will go from "capture the insane murder tree" to "get rid off the insane murder tree" in no time flat.
I don't think the bindings themselves will add compulsion to obey, so the best case scenario would be us having a raving genocidal psychopath in our head.
Possibly interesting, but not a good long term development, so getting her to the grey lords for somekind of long term containment would probably be in order.

Well yeah, but they do need to eat something and if you are in the north of Kiselv of all places being the Night's Watch odds are you are going to be eating a steady diet of Chaos Marauder.
No, that just makes it extremely hard.
It is the fact that she's already connected to an entire forest of other spirits of equal or greater power who would fight Mathilde over it that makes it impossible.
Well not so much as drive off a cliff, more like "and what if I fed it my grocery list as coordinates?". Drive off cliff implies far more of control over the outcome I envision.
