Kobold King

I can't speak for anyone else, but I find Windreader's constant and doomed quest to remove her banes one of the most hilarious parts of this thread.

That is beautiful. Somebody call a cardiologist, because my heart just swelled three sizes.

Sounds like a lot of fun. Such a shame. Hypothetically, I'd love to be cut in on any such conversation to weigh in on how an Allosaurus Warrior would behave in different scenarios. If such a PM existed, of course.

Scans of the fossilized skull of Allosaurus atrox, which just happens to be the species Neverthere has encountered, indicate that Allosaurus possessed a brain in almost all ways identical to that of modern crocodiles. A pair of brief Google searches confirm that modern crocodiles' brains are affected by alcohol in much the same way as humans. (The searches also brought up a plethora of articles about drunken Australian men trying to ride saltwater crocodiles, but that is neither here nor there.) I'm not sure how saurian drunkenness would manifest. I have the sneaky suspicion that all it would really do is make the Allosaurus drowsy and sluggish. I have no way of authenticating this hypothesis, however. You know, in a way it's a shame that this is a solely hypothetical question. I'd rather like to see something like this in the RP.

Granted. You lost 95% of the memories of your past, and the remaining 5% you recall is entirely filled with all of the pain and bad days you've had in your life. I wish for a way to communicate with Kobold Kings of parallel universes.

Would they extend the same compassion towards Backtrack, or would Margaret simply walk into the room with him, pluck out one of his eyelashes, and nonchalantly walk out while he's crying?

What? But then they could create a device that accurately counts off seconds and minutes as they occur! They could even make it round with numbers around the rim for easy usage! GM, you must put a stop to this overpoweredness!

Could she have gotten those from Cricket's DNA? It occurs to me that Lucentia is just snotty and passive aggressive enough to be GLaDOS.

Now Oregon's thinking with portals.

"Hey, Moby?" "I told you not to call me that, Slaughterhouse. What is it?" "Just thought you should know that you have one less hair than usual. You had 108,763 hairs on that pretty scalp of yours yesterday. You let that sweet old lady in here... and now you have 108, 762." "Um... what?" "Do you think this is a coincidence? You should have let me butcher that grandma when we had the chance!" "You memorized how many hairs are on my head?" "Aren't you in the slightest concerned about her getting into your hair? She could steal your DNA and build machines out of you!" "I'm far more concerned with the fact that you've MEMORIZED THE HAIRS ON MY HEAD."

Awesome! I can't wait to see her in action. Maybe her most prized piece of tech could come from a spatial distorter whose DNA she harvested in California. It allows her to fold space in a subtle way, allowing her to form short-lived wormholes from one nearby location to another. It could help her to escape tight jams.

I theorize that certain individuals inadvertently connect their accounts to the Rep Dimension, a world where everyone on the planet sits around clicking on green arrows all day. This allows them to accumulate dozens of upvotes in a matter of hours, with little obvious causation. Also, you should know that I've officially started a Reputation Log on my computer, where I can chart out our respective reputation levels and determine whether you're gaining rep at a faster level than I am. I haven't gotten as far as I have by ignoring potential threats. Making this character a grandma would be awesome.

You're welcome to him, but one thing to keep in mind is that this man would be EXTREMELY careful. There's no way he could survive as a David Charleston kind of character, carrying out his operations by the seat of his pants. I think he'd need to plan his harvests in excruciating detail, taking the place of people like servers or barbers at the exact right time to collect from an Epic. And he would most likely not be a fighter--at the first sign of an Epic being on to him, he'd need to call off the harvest and get as far away from said Epic as possible. Epic harvesting isn't a job for the rash or the brazen. He'd be a tough person to write, but you're free to try your hand at him.

If I were participating in What Happened in Astoria, right now I'd be creating a vanilla character. Remember how in Steelheart it mentions the thriving trade in Epic DNA? There's a line that mentions how some people harvest DNA from live Epics, and then secretly sell them on the black market. Can you imagine a man who covertly takes samples of Astoria's most dangerous Epics? He would have to be Astoria's resident badchull/super agent.

Alloy of Law:

I worked hard on that one. Oh, they know I'm insane. And most of them are insane too to some extent or another, which helps. Unrelated, but while looking for MLP dinosaur art I think I found what the Mane Six would look like as chiskreven.

Thanks. This had me giggling like a lunatic in front of my laptop. My entire family thinks I've lost my mind.

That, or it is a curse word, but none of the characters were foul-mouthed enough to use it.

I'm surprised "Nighthound" hasn't become a curse by the time of Steelheart.

Sparky sparkmuffins? Slontzecakes?

Is it kind and supportive that I upvoted this, or cruel and taunting? I'm just I had enough upvotes to spend on that comic. If I hadn't been able to upvote that model of comic, pony, and AU perfection, I'd have started uttering speels of Reckoners-themed curses myself.

Guess what two alliterative words will be uttered by Backtrack next time he suffers physical harm.

I hereby declare this AU canon. She should have spoken to Backtrack. He alone is cowardly open-minded enough to recognize the perils of Calamity's Cupcake.

Not. Enough. Ponies.
