By the way, smurf, I'd like to go over the Fragmentor Crystals at some point with you...in PM.

Mehehehe. There's always an advantage in more than just EXP to beating my boss fights...but there's a similarly greater amount of danger, as you just saw.

Which is why Kaotaro is going to jail or something if all goes well.

All goes well?

When she didn't do it on purpose?

Really?

That's kindof cruel, Kj. Or extremely cruel.

She's a danger to herself and everyone around her. It safer this way.

Whether she did it on purpose or not, the group isn't exactly liable to trust her.

Mmmhmmm.

Because learning she's going to be imprisoned again won't make her freak out.

And it's not like the thing that's doing this can do so if she's in prison, after all.

Certainly not if that prison is incredibly restrictive and/or has the shitty quality of life most do that results in highly dangerous situations for all involved.

Hell, Bartimaeus is dangerous to everyone around him, why is this different? Because you don't want to fight another boss and know it will happen again because Meta knowledge and Nevlyn magically hearing the creature's final words from afar whilst calling 000 as it spoke to ICARUS during the crash and din of battle?

Trust her? I don't expect them to. But when she's obviously this strong or whatever, and genuinely wants to help, I do expect them to not be DnD level of pragmaticism/murder-hobos.

I mean, as long as she doesn't use too much stuff during a fight, she'll be fine. And if she learns to control it/suppress it, she'll be good. Do you really want to just off her, effectively?

You want to throw a random boss that if it hadn't been for really shitty rolls on it's part would have been difficult at us you have to deal with people starting to act more realistic. If someone I barely knew turned into a monster, especially if it never happened before according to them, and attacked me I would call the police as well.

Kj, A, we beat the crap out of her. B, that guy is from an alternate timeline, so he wouldn't call the cops as he doesn't know why he should do so.

Look at it from Kaiser's viewpoint: he led a mysterious girl from his past to the group, she helped them a little, and then turned into a monster which hurt him and his friends. He also made contact with the AI inside her metal parts, which he is now probably going to attempt to destroy.

A, that was sheer luck.

B, don't tell me what my character would do.

And I don't give a flying fuck about Kaiser. It is not in my interests to let my characters die and it is not in character for them to back off from a fight unless it's obviously a bad idea.

Your characters would have been fine, regardless of luck. Even if too many PCs went below health, I would have asspulled them to safety.

That's what you say but I'm lead to doubt that given how gleeful everybody has been in regards to killing off characters lately.

Killing off characters is hilarious. But since you guys this game won't let me mass murder the lot, I make sure to keep them alive, unless the owner of the character or enough people demand they die.

If I ever join, have that not be the case for my characters.

I'm not expecting my characters to be immune to death but having the chance not to die would be nice.
Also, who's plot is next?

Murder Night still hasn't been beaten, but I'm probably going to let that go... until later. I think the lot of you are far too low level to attack with your usual 'strategies'.
