If I zap her while she's restrained, she is toast. Once she's disabled, I can cut off her limbs with the cutting torch. Should she try and get up, tesla sabre to the base of the skull should keep her down. Permanently.
You're kinda forgetting an important detail. Faith isn't the problem.
If a ghost or a demon is possessing someone, killing that someone won't fix the problem. It's a temporary solution at best.
You need the space magic equivalent of an exorcist to permanently solve the problem.

Hmm... come to think of it, do we know if that phantasm is actually possessing people? Or is there the possibility that it is just outright using their bodies as meat puppets? Because if it's the latter, killing or disabling may not work...

When she began possessing Corsair's character she went through his shield and then "wore" his arm like a glove. She used it to hit him in the leg before "wearing" the rest of his body. And Corsair's character could talk while possessed and so did Faith and Faith is currently unconscious. So definitely some kind of body controller and not a mind controller. I'd recommend Steve remotely enabling her berserk mode, just to see what happens.

I'm still kinda wondering how the hell does Saint design anything operational with Handiwork and Intelligence both 0. :P

To be honest, anyone using Chlorine Trifluoride in anything should need handiwork rolls to hand-load them.  And the pentafluroride is rougher to make and handle, as well as being slightly unsuitable for storage, due to it disassociating exothermically without external assistance.

Force hostages to enact a fanfiction. Now.

OK
PLEASE

WHY DID YOU HAVE THIS ON FILE

You get Faith's arms behind her back and then...nothing. Specifically, she stops  fighting.  There's an odd release of heat and a bit of light but no sign of the banshee, as you put it.
Yes!

...unless that release was her entering the air to strike again. Boy, sure wish Faith was still awake to test moving around...

As soon as you get your hands around it you know you've made a mistake. Bandages, who you can now tell has been dead for a while, slumps limply to the ground. You feel that same razorblade feeling you felt in your side, except now it's crawling up your arms. It reaches your shoulders and your arms, now completely out of your control, move to press the rifle against your chest.
Of course.


You're kinda forgetting an important detail.
Also that General Spinebreaker says to say no to teamkilling.

Or the release of light and energy might have been from her materialising inside your body. Fusion tends to produce some energy. On the bright side, if the amp survived, we could use it to make our own literal Ghost Recon.

Edit: Hey, look! Whoever is experimenting there is trying to weaponize loot. Smart when fighting the HMRC.

Well, here goes. Two amp usages when I'm damn near tapped out. I'd tell y'all to brace yourselves, but I can't. I've been remarkably good at not overshooting, but......

Well, hey, intelligence is basically a useless skill unless you're using manips (or are stupid in reality, I suppose).  And manips are almost entirely inferior to amps.

I tend to think of intelligence as more of a 'formal education' stat.  Someone can be really book dumb, and still be a veritable genius as far as mental thinking ability goes.

And handiwork is less 'knowledge of how things function' and more 'how to make things function differently using your hands'.  I mean, Lerman's way better at handi than Saint, and he gave himself boob legs.  AUX is really more about how things function.

The wiki says it's untested but likely to be effective:
Quote
Synthbody: Untested. Target likely to be incapacitated with any solid hit, or killed with direct hit to braincase area.

(http://einsteinianroulette.wikia.com/wiki/Weapon_Statistics)

On one hand, I'm happy that people are using that, but on the other hand, just remember that right now that basically means "syvarris is pretty sure this is how it would do."

To be honest, anyone using Chlorine Trifluoride in anything should need handiwork rolls to hand-load them.  And the pentafluroride is rougher to make and handle, as well as being slightly unsuitable for storage, due to it disassociating exothermically without external assistance.

Well, when it first popped up, Pyro had to make rolls to mess with it.  I'm not sure if Charles' did for the pawn, but aside from that, I can't think of any time when people were handloading ClF3.

Anyways, even if Saint needs to make a roll, well, being dropped into a vat of the stuff would only be an annoyance to him.  Spilling some on his hand isn't an issue.

Audiodump is PW's personal youtube account.

IIRC, he started it as a place to put pieces of a DBZ porn movie thing that he wanted to make.

And after that he started dating homosexual pigeons.

Yay!  I've been wanting to see a vector overload ever since the space battle!

I'm sorry?  Even if he's all robot, no way do joints work after a few moments of the stuff working on it.

* Devastator looks up the wiki..

ahh, so he's doing it all remotely, then?  That's got it's own issues, though..

Handi:1-1
You somehow manage to fill the cif-3 shell production facility with sentient broom-bots that keep filling the shells with cif-3 long after they are full.

Carbon-iodine trifluoride?  I've never heard of that, and wikipedia has no article on it.  Then again, my chemistry knowledge is practically nonexistant, so maybe that compund does exist.

If the chemical doesn't damage the brooms, then how much damage would the facility itself suffer?  The worst that would happen is wasting a bunch of a chemical that sounds extremely difficult to synthesize.

...Why would we be loading it into shells?  I doubt it's more effective as an incendiary than ClF3, it certainly doesn't sound dense, and it's probably not even explosive.
Yes, I got the reference, I'm just poking fun at your typo.
