> Water into *plasma* which is then piped... Lets strip some of that piping which can contain stuff hotter than most suns! (source: http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/2001-02/983243860.Ph.r.html )

> Hmm this is basically a steam jet... wonder if we can seal a pipe section at one end, then mix ground magicite, clay, and a bit of gunpowder to get it started, and get an SRB...

> Why can't we get one ofthe varius chests and coffers nad have two of the pirates cary that around?

You give all the pirates Sword chucks and alcohol as reward for their good behavior, as they drink it the high speed swinging becomes more and more dangerous looking, but not a single injury occurs, strangely enough.

You strip off a section of pipe, the hard water buildup is unimaginable, but nothing usable remains in it.

You have the pirates take two of the coffers from a couple of rooms back to carry excess loot.

"Magicite is fairly common, In fact, It is one of the prime minerals at Goddess road, if I had enough magicite I could probably begin repairs on this ship for that matter."

You replace the pipe back to it's original place.

Nighttime is here, better let it in before it breaks our doorbell... freeloader.

What now?

Not sure I understand this sentence. ))

((there is no plasma still running through the pipes, there was just some crusted hard water buildup on the inside of them.))

Turn to grey cloak blue girl. Ask her where she is from and ask her how we can help her.

Assuming we haven't done so already.

((Oh! I didn't mean getting the plasma itself, I meant getting the pipe. Which we apparently did then? ))

((What do you mean by "hard water"? Ice? deposits of impurities like salts? Crystals of Water-magic nodes?))

> Take a pipe section abaut as long as a sheild shoud be, cut along one side, unbend the cylinder into a rectangle. Attach a handle and call it a shield. Test.

> What metal is the broken equipment made from? Is there some spare magicite in the room to power smelting some of it?

Removing the pipe is as easy as unscrewing it, but adamantine is well known for being nigh indestructible, crafting a shield out of any of it would be nearly impossible with the tools you have.

"My name is (Name), I was sent by my father to learn the ways of the princess and maiden. in order to best fulfill my... goals."

The way you could best help me would be to take me to Lady Lover, the queen of Plothole, the city of demons. While her Kingdom and subjects can be displeasing, she is well versed in the ways of grace and civility."

"Lastly, I myself am from the tinkerer's district of Goddess road, I was, raised, there all my life, and would be more than able to assist you in any business you have in the districts."

"And as an afterthought, my observations while on this ship lead me to believe that it could very well be functional even in it's ruined state, and that the pirates were able to find large amounts of fuel by attracting a certain type of monster that hoards it in a special pouch on it's sides."

"It's true, while they are nasty little things, they are chock full of magicite, just about any kind of flammable substance will attract the little devils."

The Buildup is of impurities, such as calcium, minerals, and salt.

The broken equipment appears to be made of a variety of different things, glass, wood, iron, small steel bits, springs and sprockets and gears and wires and pipes and gaskets.

While you could smelt the broken equipment using magicite, you do not have any equipment to do anything useful with the molten metal, you think anyway.

> Shine shape equipment to do anything useful with the molten metal, specifically useful would be further tools for smiting that can't be made directly using shine shape or shadowmancy, such as ones we need to enchant with reinforcing and heat resistant nodes as well.
> Do that.

> Look up steel, magicite, and adamantite in the metallurgy book again.

Searching all the places it might be, you unfortunately are unable to find any magicite for your plan.

Spoiler: You decide to read more on steel magicite and adamantine, maybe this will give you some ideas. (click to show/hide)

Quote

"A common material, steel is a widely used commercial metal in the higher sectors, created from inserting trace amounts of carbon into iron, many wizards have developed secret methods for transmuting iron into steel, and vise-versa, even on the battlefield. While it is nothing special, Steel does have a thaumic atunement to ambient magic, due to the carbon in it, many steel objects can gain sentience if preserved for several thousand years in a specific area."

Quote

"Magicite is a common fuel used in many different applications, from industrial to magitec, a small rock can hold enough energy to power most moderately sized devices for several days.
Magicite is created when magical energies deep below the surface coalesce in silicon deposits, eventually forcing it into a special molecular state where it can begin to absorb thermal and magical energy at an astonishing rate. many creatures can transform into magical variations when enough Magicite is taken into their bodies, and while these beasts are powerful, if these areas are damaged enough, the Magicite can destabilize, disintegrating the monster's remains. a prime example is the Pepper knights and Pepper kings that roam around the outskirts of Goddess Road, but due to their biology, are unable to survive in the high iron and silver concentrations that exist in Goddess Road sand. Magicite is also well known for it's use in making Antimethod, a drug commonly used by mechanical beings to enhance their performance."

Quote

"Adamantite is a rare ore found deep within the bowels of the planet, originally discovered by a dwarven rock farmer, It was adopted into use by the dwarven empires as a sign of royalty, in recent years however, it has also found use in industry as an extraordinarily sturdy metal, used in airships, armor, weapons, tools, machinery, and even implants created by specific orders of druid."

you also read the entry on Arcanite while you are at it.

Quote

"Arcanite is commonly used due to it's total immunity to heat, cold, and magical radiation, making it perfect for magical machinery where controlling the flow of energy is essential.
It has also been noted for it's properties in stabilizing spectral entities, allowing them to, when covered in Arcanite dust, Remain on the physical plane indefinitely."

bump.

Oh, uh. Ask everyone about the monsters that have/eat magicite (I can't remember), then begin the hunt!

Also, where did our little flame friend go? He and our prey appear to have the same appetite.

Shadestyle · « **Reply #777 on:** September 17, 2014, 04:48:10 pm »

"Common monsters that possess magicite are pepper knights and the rare pepper king, you can also find it in ancient machinery, and very rarely, exposed veins."

Two things to keep in mind are merchants who can have some for "Sale"... whatever that is, and a group of sand pirates, pricks have a magicite detecter for their sand submarine, and steal it from us whenever they can."

"If you get too much magicite in one place, they will know it."

You look out to the horizon with your party, ready to hunt, you see several things on the horizon, and mentally color code them.

You could go to one of the blurs on the horizon, examine one further in an effort to divine what it is, or try to set some bait, you believe they mentioned pepper knights being attracted by flammable substances.

After a while the sand on the horizon takes a silvery color.

Your flame friend is in a lamp in your inventory.
