Game-Breakingly

Very

Moderately

Just a Little

Not at All

"Uh... what exactly IS that thing? Regardless, I think we're best served going elsewhere."

Get bookwyrm analyzed, then head... oh, how about northeast?

[superBlast]

The bookwyrm's range is pretty massive, but it's really too big to notice most people without them doing something to attract its attention or drive it into a blind rage.

Like me... before it was massive and after I sent the meteor into it's face. Still surprised the meteor didn't even scratch it.

((Hey can you say if that map is the map of the world or not? I'd love to know where the location of things around the world are generally at.))

It's actually only about 2/3 of the northern hemisphere. But the rest of the world is sort of a 'lost lands', which hasn't been explored much, and as such maps are rare.

Hm...cou,d we reach the rest by means of, say, a miles-long dragon?

Also, are there any people in play with such low Badassery that they'd almost always be the target of the Bookwyrm? And how long is the Bookwyrm's reach? I've got a plan...maybe with Hastur's watch...and we need to put Osborn somewhere safe...

Quite probably. Even an airship or a boat would be just fine, since it's not too far, just large and mostly uninhabited. The bookwyrm's range is pretty massive, but it's really too big to notice most people without them doing something to attract its attention or drive it into a blind rage.

(The Bookwyrm is really the ends, not the means.)

Anyways, I have a plan. It involves taking control of the Bookwyrm for our own purposes. If anyone wants to know more, I'm forming a PMing "alliance," inspired by similar teams in Perplexicon, with which we can organize some efforts to harness the might of that awesome being.

You may have to do that before Hero McSilverSurfer with me tries to kill the thing.

Why?

Why?

He's a HERO of JUSTICE and FREEDOM. Of course he's going to slay the dragon.
Also: excluding me from the alliance? Pity.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Quite the opposite, in fact. I was asking your motive so I could determine how to convince you how keeping the bookwyrm alive is in your interest.

Now tell me, good hero: What justice is there in killing an innocent being that had no choice in being a giant murderous dragon when you could turn the beast to the side of good? My plan will have the Bookwyrm attacking only the evil. In addition, it will form a base for the Forces of Good and Justice, a mobile base which can take Good to the Evil!

And I suppose the leader of this group would be you, then? You would decide what is good and what is evil according to your moral code? That's surprisingly tyrantlike for you, GWG. Also, why do you want to violate it's free will? The dragon is currently doing whatever it wants. If you harness it and get it do do your thing, it becomes your possession. Don't enslave the dragon, GWG. Don't be a tyrant.

If I make it out of wherever I am right now, I would very much like to join your Goodness and Justice Force atop your mobile dragon base.


That makes me wish there was a game like this where all the players are various superheros and supervillains, forming up teams and owning awesome bases/lairs.

The noble Green Ranger, joining the aspiring tyrant? Shame.

((This is interesting and all, but I want to know what this paper does.))
Begin walking to aforementioned palace. Put my paper in my back pocket, sticking out a bit, just begging for someone to steal it.

1. Why would you assume this?
2. You want to kill it. That's a worse trespass on its free will. Besides, the "control" I have planned is nothing more than directing it to attack certain people instead of others. (I'll admit that it might fail if random civilians attack our dragon base, but at least natural selection would reduce such incidents...)

Oh man your turn is going to be hilarious, I just know it.

[Xantalos]

GWG: I never said I want to kill it.

[GreatWyrmGold]

GWG: I never said I want to kill it.

Then what DO you want to do? Let it run about and kill anyone it comes across?
