(Though I'd note that you probably should have fought, from a purely meta-game point of view. The Chief had a -1 to such confrontations, you probably would have won the pile)
I just felt kinda guilty, though it woulda been funny to work my way up via sneakiness, deception, hiding, and murder to have the stats of 11 missions without going more than 5 metres from allied ships.

If/when you test a possibly probably unstable artifact, remember we have a room for that sort of thing  :P

:P

Also, are there any special wiki edits for a death?

It most certainly would have. Frankly, I would have been pretty open to letting you have the body, but what's done is done.

Congratulations! You have created a giant overpowered monstrosity that is basically only good for building and punching things at the moment! :P

Let me tell you, I've never been gladder. Now I have five other people's dead characters (six if you count Chief herself) to pick bits up from and RP with as I wish.

Wonder if you'd be happier about the stats, skills, tokens, loot or roleplay opportunities.

The stats and loot are what make me leery and paranoid, actually, since having them puts me on fate's shit list. The skills are what Chief had already and thus nothing to write home about (in fact, a core part of my slight disappointment of how she turned out prior to being absorbed), unless by some unholy machination I get to add 10 points to them after each mission.

The RP, though, is intriguing through and through. And RP I'd get to do if I put my backup into action as well, though not the same kind that being Cthunkan affords. Hence why I wouldn't have terribly minded if you ate Chief (in fact, I could have essentially suicided and given the body to you, as mentioned).

I think you deserve it more as a longterm player and not a horrible little sneak IC, Baldman.

@Harry: Remember you still have a huge debt and Milno collects, though eight tokens from the debt can be abated if you can find out how Amiable Amber works, and whether it's useful for Joker, and give it to Milno. You can even get a token from that (Milno spent 8, Thad spent 2) if you don't expend too many shots trying to figure things out.

Wasn't the Friable Wish the pill that made Cthunkan? there are five pills left, I think. Do you mean some other artifact?
Edit; also, Miyamoto has the Friable Wish pills now. if they are the pills.

Typed the wrong name. I meant Amiable Amber, and the post's fixed now.

If there's one thing that being on my 3.5th character has taught me it's definitely that I'm not cut out for high-power play.

Besides, being a horrible sneak is very fun. I should know, since my entire experience within Cthunkan's plurality has been an exercise of horrible sneakdom.

@Harry: Remember you still have a huge debt and Milno collects, though eight tokens from the debt can be abated if you can find out how Friable Wish works, and whether it's useful for Joker, and give it to Milno. You can even get a token from that (Milno spent 8, Thad spent 2) if you don't expend too many shots trying to figure things out.

Is it the same 18 token debt people remind me about thrice-daily? Because I think I've got that covered already, though if you'd accept Friable Wish ground zero reports (essentially everything we all know OOC, but formalized and made completely IC) as partial payment, that'd be even better. It'd be a fun report to write, that's for sure. Unless you mean Amiable Amber there, which I unfortunately intend to stay very far away from to the limits of my ability.

The -2 will get you killed hard enough, I would say. No need to pile it on.

@Harry: Yeah, I meant Amiable Amber. Since you subsumed the owner then it's currently yours.

Well, the ascension is complete. Now, however, Chief is in unique position to settle the question of the fleshhorror's name once and for all!

Aw. So the skinny on Friable Wish isn't legal tender, I assume?

Cthunkan's the name I picked, I think I'll stick with it. Might invent something else along the way.
