Erm, @ partial shifts, see the beginning of the thread.
Aylia has been doing them since pre-game start. did them in mission 1 on the darn boat, did them on the fairy mission when concerned about mental side-effects of plantbeing form, and so on.
@combining forms, see Frost Giant + cat. see mission 1 where Aylia went from partial-shifted to cat directly to raven form when the boat toppled. see shifting from star sprite directly to giant frost cat in the last mission at the mimic for a 3-form combo during the shifting process.
So in response to your cagyness... wut? these are well-established abilities and i'd link them if i wasnt on my phone.
*grumpyface* 'm not being cagey. I just don't remember you using partial or combined forms before. I had to look back to find that you had that flavor text bit with catform.
If I remember correctly, you did partial shifts to cat form and the like "for fun," and did so in ways that were not game mechanic oriented (i.e. flavor text type things that didn't have an effect on actions and such). I do not remember completely though, and this was just before I took up the habit of saving outgoing messages, so I can't be entirely consistent here. I do not remember the partial change to plantbeing at all. Ah well, If I need to, I can adjust later.
For partial shift to floaty: you can hold things, but you lose significant amounts of dexterity. As for actual floating - you expand out of your normal size enough that clothing and equipment are left behind - you need to specifically gather what you want in order to carry it when you are shifted enough to float.
as for combined forms - the only one I know you have done is frostgiant+cat, and that was done in a life threatening situation and had permanent consequences. And now you discover a basic difference between your natural form and your chosen ones - your basic form is a template - a blank slate on which you can write forms. Your chosen forms are not simple to mix and match. Frostcat and Floaty, you find, are rather difficult to hold in your mind together, and you fail to bring one form into the other at all.
Dar'yajira replies smugly "Oh, this one paid Twoleg exactly what it needs, even if it does not know it. But regardless, Cat will happily leave."
As said before, Dar will now leave, dragging the metal with him, preferably somewhere secluded. Once it's been transported, he will try and transform back into his original form--since he was able to change form into what was locally natural at +2 magic, one would imagine he's quite capable of the same at +3 magic, though I don't expect him to actually fix his default form.
So, you are changing to 'normal cat' form as an enchantment? This works out fine. Your little sprite friend helps you get your metal to a secluded place and then leaves, having lost interest in the proceedings.
Noir listened quietly to them...as they spoke and talked and she breathed relaxing thinking. Letting her mind wander and think about what she had done. But she began to think about what she should do. What she could do? She wanted to leave. Like jack and dar said. But she woulden't abandon them. She woulden't abandon aylia and Dar. She would protect them no matter what she had to do. Especially if that...devil was telling the truth. They were all she had. Her father would speak to her when he......got his damn head outta his ass. Noir smirked it felt good to think that. To condescend to him.
"Yeah it is. That path is making sure Aylia and Dar don't bite it. It's being strong enough to live up to being a demigod. It's to making father and mother proud.....Thank you."
Do above turn to look at the one ive been speaking with.
You turn around and see a fat woman sitting on a giant toadstool. Well, perhaps 'fat woman' is a bit undescriptive. She's like a half-melted ice cream cone, spilling over the edges of her seat, which is, upon closer inspection, a chair with colorful spots. It has a back and even arms, but the arms are nearly hidden by the folds of gooey girlness flopping and oozing over the sides. She smiles, and the folds ripple in rather hypnotic ways. She claps her hands together, making her arm fat wobble and ripple.
"Well, that was quick. I doubt you are 'cured' though. Still, go and perform your ritual. Come see me if you have more problems.""Statement: Intelligence coming to visit, huh? I suppose this place could use some of that.
Query: Tell me about this other artifact that was retrieved recently, it sounds interesting."
Keep talking. Also, do the omega peeps who investigated the painting think it can be talked to in a safe manner, or is it so malevolent that it's basically a waste a time?
"the other artifact? All I know is that it is supposed to hold great power and that it may be useful here in Omega Base itself. And no, it wasn''t retrieved - the mission failed rather spectacularly. Not that Brass expected it to succeed - but they did expect it to fail a bit further in than it did. Brass was hoping for more information than that mission retrieved."
They think the painting is a waste of time, whether it can be talked to safely or not. of course, they won't stop you from trying, but the painting is likely to end up in a niche in the Asylum - or on the wall across from the cell of a 'troublesome inmate.'
