Everybody have Doctor's cells in their heads because his syringes were always empty and not everybody has amps. You aren't paranoid enough.

And that's why there are multiple Doctors, to cover multiple HMRC ships. And he has the perfect cover because everybody's going to get injured and end up in the infirmary. Alone. With the Doctor. And no one to see what's going on.

What happens if you tell a true AI, like the one that was on the Mission STAN ship "This  statement is a lie."? Does it go boom?

Is the average schmuck in ARM ever going to find out the dark and terrible secrets of the setting, or will that information forever be privileged and beyond the reach of dubiously competent "soldiers"?

Why is Steve so mellow anyway? Has mocking the inmates lost its charm? Or are we merely not the most mockable set of inmates anymore, strange as that may seem?

How competent is the Sword's ARM in comparison to the revolutionaries on the other former HMRC vessels? Do the other ships have their own equivalents of Milno, Miyamoto, the Hephaestus crew and so forth?

Which ex-prison ship in Steve's employ is overall the least competent, would you say? Have you an example of them screwing up really badly in broad strokes? Say, going down to negotiate with a planet Steve would like to have and instead just shooting everyone?

Do synthflesh bodies have tongues? If you made the largest possible set of human-style mouthparts (plus voicebox) out of synthflesh, what would it have to say?

Screaming. Incoherent insane screaming and babbling followed by it trying to eat you/anything around it.

Would you call ER a crapsack or crapsaccharine universe?

With the death of Mesk finishing the complete elimination of his team from Mission Serial Killer, has the little redhead girl sated her thirst for vengeance, or are other 'Corpsmen in danger (notably those from the other team from that mission)?

How does she do that, actually? How did she kill off and/or emotionally destroy all of them? Is she a supergenius mastermind, a prescient savant or simply a 'real' witch (like Timmy)?

What are the plans for the potion-vending machine, will we eventually get one installed?

Will we gradually see more new NPCs on board now that the Doctor has left for Hephaestus and we are not cordoned off within our unit quarters? Specifically, both crew NPCs and (other unit) ARM trooper NPCs?

Will Dr.Clark have more spotlight now that he has a name?
:P What about Fred (the Armory Kiosk assistant)?

You said the fate of large groups evens out to around 0 - what if it's a group of people all with +4 fate?
What about a group of people all with -2 fate?

The armory entry for the Tesla Saber implies that we can't make plasma swords due to copyright issues. Given that we are now independent, does that mean ARM is free to manufacture plasma swords?

Are there any planets in a situation like "Water World"'s (the 1995 steampunk waterborne postapocalyptic cult western flop), in the ERverse? Will we ever see any? Are there water-covered, surface inhabited planets at all, more generally?

Purely out of interest, how much of the various inessential parts of ER do you generally read? For example, character bios, idle chatter on ship, irrelevant bits of Tinker entries, even OOC? Are there any bits you want to read more/less of?


Also, what's the cat called?


Very important, that last one.

I don't really know if it goes here, but talks get pretty random most of the time, so why not.

@InfiniteHeavens:

What was the deal with the fog we crossed on our way out of Slenceville? Was it some sort of border marker between neighboring realities or somesuch?
Was there a way to move further on wheels from that point where we crossed the mountain bridge? Have we missed any roads? Were any of them hidden?
[/s]

Did we have any event so far from where things could go completely different? Was the way we dealt with Most High the most likely way we could deal with him?

When looking at 'True' A.Is and Wetware A.Is, are 'true' A.Is smarter for the same size? And do Wetwares normally contain the memories of the constitute brains?

Extra question: I remember you once offhandedly mentioning that dead people's souls probably went to the void or somesuch, at what point do the souls go into the void? If they disappear the instant they go braindead, what about revived PC's? Are they then little more than automatons moved by their brains signals only?

If their souls are returned upon revival, do they still remember the void? Do they still remember their time with Timmy? Do they have nightmares about it?

Would this theoretically mean that there's multiple Xan souls floating around the void depending on if you view his various incarnations as seperate souls or not!
