One of the primary things we need to do when TWoOtA continues is figure out what the hell happened with Yaos. Maybe Proxxy will have some information?

We destroyed him Soul, mind, and body. He was Willborn, so there was no other way.

I'm aware that Yaos is very dead. What I meant was, why was Yaos in the Warrens, why was his/her soul star slowly killing him/her, what was his/her "bargain", etc.

And the most important question, IS YAOS MALE OR FEMALE? There have been FFS posts referring to Yaos as both: male/female

[javierpwn]

As an Exile, what would you do; spend the rest of your life hunted down by your previous Jailers, or find the super cool weapon rumored to be held by great people, and is so dangerous, they throw criminals of the highest offense into close proximity with it.

As for the Soul Stars, they might reveal alot about the person who they belong too. An example being the Astral Influx, because Ciro has identity Issues, not knowing who he truly is, his Star allows him to transfer consciousness to whomever he choose. Another example being the Illborn Exchange, being as Al has a keen interest on Illborn.
Yaos felt throughout his/her life hat because s/he had powers, s/he owed something to the world; said thoughts manifested themselves into the Star and Voila!

Yaos' gender is yaos.

There, the eternal question is answered.

I am also available for questions on how one pronounces any of these stupid names.

[javierpwn]

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Yaos:Yowse, (like louse, and house)
Riltia:Rill-She-A
Al:Al
Ciro:See-Row
Proxxy-Prah-Ksee
Oric-Or-Ik
Mili-Mill-E
Slog-Slog
Floe-Flow
Cain-Cane

What would've happened if we killed Riltia? Any immediate loot(not from statue)?

Also:WE LISTENED TO ORIC!!!!!! WE CHOSE NOT TO BE A HERO AND SIDED WITH PROXXY!!!1!1!!!1!one!1!1!

[freeformschooler]

I always pronounced Yaos "yay-ohs" and Riltia "ril-tee-uh." Other than that yeah, pretty much.

No idea on your Riltia question lolol etc. We probably would have died. She IS kind of the tank of the party.

I always thought of it like this:

Yaos - Yay-ohs- like rhyming with Chaos
Riltia - Ril-tee-ah
Ciro - Seer-oh
Al of course is Al
Proxxy - Prox-ee

Diplomacy is victorious yet again.

[Corai]

Wait, Proxxy knows everything about the level, right?

She knows where all the loot is then and how to avoid her (possibly ex)minions. Anyone else thinking what i'm thinking?

[Cerol Lenslens]

Damn, I miss the rest of the diplomacy duel, and I come back to find that Slog is dead you pulled a miracle and recruited Proxxy?!?

You guys are awesome.

Also, FFS, I have to say rolling with the unexpected like this has always been in my mind the hallmark of the best GMs.

(I've been pronouncing it 'Yah-oss'.)

[TopHat]

I was halfway through reading that when I noticed the title change.
It kind of spoiled the ending.
Ah well, can't complain, for once I miss something important and everything I would have voted for was chosen.
Oh, and we sort of 'won' DL2.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Poor Proxxy... Her searchbots possessed by Angels/Eye/Voice.

Indeed.
Or maybe hacked by Oric.

FFFFFF WE SHOULD HAVE PICKED UP THAT SIDEQUEST DAMMIT.

Ah well, there's always the next Sibling. And hey, maybe threats from three separate Siblings will convince them that we've allied a Sibling.

By the end of this, we'll have allied with every single sibling, and we'll approach Oric as a single unified army, and when it comes time to kill him, we'll save his poor soul, too. But not by allying with him.
Double-cross-pheonix-down. Kill him, mercilessly, and then when the endless cycles are stopped, we can bring him back right. And show him there is so much more to the world then a prison.

And then we will realize that we never took the sidequest.

Yaos' appearance was part of the Random Event Table (which I jokingly called the Random Subplot Table to Derm once), but meeting her was such an outrageously small chance I didn't think it was going to happen.

Isn't Yaos a guy?

I always pronounced Yaos "yay-ohs" and Riltia "ril-tee-uh." Other than that yeah, pretty much.

That's how I'd imagined it. Yaos rhyming with Chaos.

Wait, Proxxy knows everything about the level, right?

I always pronounced it Ritalia cause I can't read.

[javierpwn]

I thought it was Rilitia for the longest time. Never noticing that there was no extra i.

A quick search of 'rilitia' shows quite a few of my older posts

[Dariush]

Heh, same here. The first time I saw the proper pronunciation I thought it was a typo, but then it was used in the next post... and the one after that... and when I scrolled up there was the same pronunciation, and then I thought the unverse was getting retconned around me. It's an unpleasant feeling.

Congratulations FFS for having achieved your goal!

About inventory management:

As it is a tedious work to do, and one that isn't one of the most necessary ones, maybe you could change the storage image for a list, or an hyperlink list, instead of having to do a new image each time we shuffle things inside or outside of it. It wouldn't really afect the quality of your work at all, and most of us wouldn't really care about that change. It would be even more practical, as you can see the menus of the things in storage.


What should we do with Proxxy:

Go around and find and kill the searchbots, so that we can show her that we can be allies and make her trust us.
