In case you're wondering, you now have 10 points to spend making a character, and the stats are:

Strength: Damage from physical blows, lifting things, wearing heavy armor, not being a girly man.

Endurance: Absorbing damage, continuing to fight when injured, minimizing debilitating effects like poison or being drunk and being able to continue being active for longer and not crying for 10 minutes after you stub your toe.

Speed: Seeing who acts first, dodging, running away, or otherwise doing things where you gotta go fast.

Dexterity: Hitting accurately, sneaking, balancing and the like. Ie not tripping over your own big fat stupid feet and punching yourself in the face.

Awareness: Seeing things that are hidden, intuiting things about the world, realizing an attack is coming and generally not being a half comatose idiot.

Potency:  The stat that determines  how powerful and and how successful a spell will be. This is the stat that is rolled every time  spell is cast. 

Will: The strength of your mind. Helpful for things that require a strong mind, like not being mind puppeted or controlling things.

Channeling: Determines your capacity to cast spells. Each point  in this stat adds another point to your maximum pool. Each point in your pool is another word you can speak. Ie, if your channeling is 3 and you have 3 points in your pool, you can speak three words.


Feel free to remake your characters as you see fit.

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

So it was like a binary search, except the question is "Has the input been brutally murdered?", and it only ever returns True.

Even me?  Curious how this Null thing will finish up.  I could always just cast another super-boosted black hole and end everyone- that last one was just 5 pot and I can go up to 9 now.

New Piecewise RTD?  Instant re-in.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

Tod-1, about to speak words that he is sure will grant him unheard-of power, suddenly experiences a sort-of tingling sensation. It feels rather odd, but... right, somehow.

"~Awoo... it-is-time... it-is-time-for... VERSION-UPGRADE-IN-PROGRESS!~"

He begins to twitch in a wholly unnatural fashion, twisting, turning and making sounds best described as wholly unnatural as all three of the holes in his head widen in a silent scream.

"~UPGRADING... UPGRADING... PLEASE-WAIT. WHILE-YOU-WAIT-LET-ME-TELL-YOU-ABOUT-THE-NEWEST-FEATURES-IN-THE... BUH... ah...~"

He straightens out as the now-incompatible souls of a great many people stream out of his pale body, making strange patterns in the air as they disappear off to parts unknown. At the end of the ordeal, he looks smaller, weaker, somehow. But there now is an odd spark in his eyes, a hint of something more powerful that was not there before. In addition, he also seems to have sprouted a long, thick and bushy full beard in the area around his mouth-hole, oddly-enough.

"~Welcome-one-and-all-to-the-new-and-improved-version-of-your-very-favorite-home-defense-solution... TOD-2!~"

Seems this is going new places, if you got room for a new face I'm willing to give it a shot and be put on a waiting list.

Sure, go for it.

Well, I'm going to leave a lot of it secret, let you find that out of your own, just like the words, but I can tell you this much:

There's a god that will work well for those who don't want to use magic. One for those who want to specialize. One for those who just want to see the world burn. One for those who prefer trickery and guile.  One for the writers, another for the slippery, a third for the hard to kill and a fourth for those who want to be just a little more....strange.

I'm going for a good guy this time instead of an evil little kid. Character for the part 2 thingy!

Awareness: 1
Potency:  3 
Will: 1

Definitely back in.


This should be epic. Oh, and those of us who were already in/on waitlist get to jump right back in without a rearrangement of the world order, right?
