Ok, the bad news: The Lurker In the Angles managed to interface with some origin tech somewhere. And it has managed to effect most origin tech.
The Good news: It isn't leaping through it like we feared it would. But it appears to have made our ability to produce reliable results with it less, well, reliable. This means a few things:
1. We are going to need to try and transfer over to different tech in terms of many systems, though luckily we have some leeway and time to do so. Unfortunately this means that we're gonna be going light on the automanips from now on so I hope you like no gravity. Better than gravity suddenly jumping up to 30 times. Or becoming thermal energy. Or becoming kittens. It's also gonna make jumping a more taxing process and we're not gonna be able to land or use the cannons without a fair deal of risk.
2. Space magic has become far more dangerous. Look at your uncon/exo score. See the +X next to it? Thats the number of times you can use Space magic without any extra danger. Any times more than that and you start getting increasingly hard rolls in the background. The more you use it, the more unstable it becomes, and if you use it too much, you might end up harboring something none too friendly.
Synthflesh seems...mostly unaffected so long as it remains in relatively small quantities. However, too much of it or putting it in close proximity to amps and manips can result in strange effects. Kinetic amps seem to be unaffected for the large part but their outputs are more difficult to guess now, and can often be under or overpowered.
3. The good news is that this is gonna throw a HELL of a monkey wrench in the UWM's mechanisms, so they're gonna be hurting just as bad as us, if not worse. Now is the time to take advantage of it.
Look forward to the consequences in your individual threads.
Also, unknown future consequences which I'm sure the few people in the know are worried about right now! Yay!
Also, I'm introducing a new die. The red "Reality Break" die which I will use for various reasons. It's coming in earlier than I expected.
Actually, they're kinda tempdead. So... inactive? They probably can't physically move, but could well drive themselves mad, I guess.
Ever seen Event horizon?
