The joy of investigating something that happened a long time ago. Especially in a world that has forgotten so much of that time. It's like modern archaeologists trying to piece together daily life in ancient Egypt from wall decorations and tomb-wards.
If there's one fashion trend in Eternia I approve of, it's the 'active ladies wear leotards.' Woof.
And coincidentally arching her back and pushing her chest out? Yes, one guess what she's trying on Lantern.
At least he won't be thinking with 'Little Blok' this time.
Yes, I rather think you've burnt any hope of reconciling with him.
...With his face melting off? That'd take some focus and control.
And a jumpstart from your magic. Though you only really played the role of 'starter motor'...
And such an... Impressive face it is. Still a better interpretation that the toy version at the top of that page. Yow.
Or it was simply too damaged to put back together. You see his lips sliding off his mouth there, after all.
No neck either, you'll note. Wonder if the top of his torso has exposed flesh there, or is it a smooth lump with a hole for air and food to pass down?
...I don't think you quite have the bone structure for that look, dear.
Entirely natural regret to have, especially since you were beaten by someone not using magic.
He remembers that much from the eighties, I take it. Since he would have no knowledge of the Noughties version.
And quite a motley and distinctive crew they are, for sure.
Limited numbers of disposable troops? Management issues? Obscure rules enforced by cosmic entities?
Heh. He evidently hasn't been gone that long, if she still tends to refer to him in present tense... And if he's some kind of undead, there's no guarantee he's truly killable.
The lady does have a taste for powerful men, doesn't she?
And it did seem to work quite well for him, barring the occasional old-fashioned idiot trying their hand at rebellion.
Make the world better than it is. Which is a common theme amongst Orange-Ringed Pauls, I've noticed.
It's badass? I mean, he wears an obvious weakness on his face, yet rarely does anyone manage to hurt him...
Oh, no, it's even better than merely 'Trydor'. The Classic series of toys named him thus: Trydor Esooniux Scope.
Imagine the childhood bullying....They'll hand you what you ask for, and thank you for the privilege of doing so. Perfect way to use people's own avarice for the better.
Because Skeletor thought small. Sure, he dreamed big, but he wanted everything on a platter immediately. To become truly powerful takes time. He always sought out shortcuts, ones which had big drawbacks that would bite him in the ass.
An alarm bell? Or merely the sound of Lantern's erection hitting the table?
Deliberately obtuse, i would think? He's busy with important research, after all...
This is Paul we're talking about here. Neutron stars wish they were as dense...
The last person she seduced early got set on fire. Also, as stated, he's in a position of mystically-enforced authority over her.
No.
No.
No.
No.
What?
No.
The Cathay from the game doesn't exist, since it contradicts existing lore and the themes of the setting.
That's not an explosion. I was expecting an explosion. I'm looking forward to seeing where this is going!
"in", I think.
Psst, that was Mr Zoat for "They are too powerful and my SI wouldn't be able to just walk all over them.".
Good point, he really should be cautious but I don't see it as an impossibility
Thank you, corrected.
Warhammer dragons are animals. They can't talk or use magic. That's a fairly big departure.
It would be very difficult for her to betray him. Not completely impossible, but very difficult.
I don't like any of the new stuff, and don't remember the old Star Wars books I read in my youth well enough to use those.
...
So she would have either had to have been preparing for a good chance to do it for a while now, and would have to decide that it's worth it to cut a deal with the attackers, or planned for something to happen that day, and been preparing specifically for it. Quite hard to do any of that when she is likely being watched and having her actions, intentions, and loyalties questioned semi regularly.
She would have to create a shell personality without using magic, and hope that Teela Na was careless for months at a time and have plan which gave her no way to receive instructions and didn't require her to attack any Eternian.
Wrong, that's literally stated to just be the common view of Warhammer Dragons.
Umm... I'm not sure precisely which part says it's a common view of dragons, but since at least 2005's Old World Bestiary for 2nd Edition Fantasy Roleplay, they could talk (Quote at the start and reference 2c). Although IDK if there's anything earlier and given Storm of chaos is before 2005 it might not have been made canon from before the cutoff point Zoats using?
Ironically that very book.
Wait, by "that very book" are you referring to the bestiary that I used as a reference or storm of chaos?
The Bestiary.
I haven't gone through everything in the Legends Timeline either but I agree that it is much better than Disney's works in general, while it did a good job in some cases it failed too badly in others. I'm sure if you were too look you would find videos or articles like wiki pages that might jog your memories like Luke's wife and son but while I am holding out hope it is still your decision.
Ok, that might work for in canon or in story reasons but that isn't literally true IRL.
Unreliable narrators is also the reason GW has given for any narrative inconsistencies.
In 5th edition, the death of a dragon's rider resulted in a role on the Monster Reaction Table, to see how the dumb animal reacted to the death of it's master/mother figure.
