So Kyle is a specialist in the field of laser technology and seems to be able to provide them with enough power to be fielded as infantry portable weapons.

On an unrelated note, Spensir's sword is a storm god that can summon thunderstorms that come with their own lightning strikes, albeit normally undirected.

Meanwhile in the Laboratory for Ionic and Molecular Spectrometry (LASIM, CNRS/University of Lyon I) and the Applied Optics Laboratory near Paris in Palaiseau (CNRS/Ecole Polytechnique/ENSTA) along with two German laboratories (The Free University of Berlin and the F. Schiller University in Jena), have been working on a laser system that uses high-power low-duration pulses, to stimulate and direct lightening to protect vulnerable structures.

Think those three might go well together? :P

Or alternatively, Kyle's laser technology, combined with ICARUS' charged particle cannon to create a laser-ionized path-guided electron beam.

...Empiricist, Mabarius is a dude.

But yes, the sword is a god of Storms and Lightning. Not just a vessel.

Well, he's a dude inasmuch as he acts like a gentleman-ish figure.

Considering he's a True God and thus doesn't actually have a gender, it's up in the air, still. Though most of his previous personas were male, too(Thor, Zeus, Raijin, Hadad, Perrun...).

But anyway, yeah.

I take it most of the myth regarding it is false then? Or did the sword actually turn into a swan and *coughs awkwardly*?

man, appearantly I rock. Today I worked in breakfast service, so I got up at 3am (and proceeded to work until 1 pm), which I dreaded, but turns out I am all sorts of energetic. I was more or less praised non-stop about how fast and yet proper I do things, and that I handled the whole thing like a pro. Meanwhile my (7 years younger) co-apprentice broke a rather expensive machine and got yelled at (rightfully so, the machine costs about 500k - that is no laughing matter).


totaly worth getting up at 3 am when you spend the day getting praised. ohh yeah

Congratulations Akroma! I hope that machine wasn't too important for anything you'll need to perform.

Wait, isn't an android, by definition, meant to resemble a human being? What would an android monkey look like? Some random guy in a monkey costume? :P

would a perk Übermensch: +1 to all stats be viable?


I mean, it literaly offers no utility whatsoever, so in essence it's just a 2 level advantage

I don't see a problem with it. In fact, it sounds a bit underpowered. After all, you're pretty much just getting 8% more points to distribute at character creation. I can't see how that'd be overpowered in the least.

and if it becomes a +1 on the roll, rather than the stat?
