So guys, something I'd like to raise up. Anyone else think that Cerulean's "build" is starting to resemble Faefnir's from Akuma Quest? I'm finding quite a few parallels between what these two characters are capable of. Hell, we even have a dragon "sleeping" within us (that is to say, the possibility of evolving into a Dragon type). 'Course, with what we're planning, evolving into a Dragon type would kill us.

But somehow that feels appropriate.

>>28346281
Thank you for running this Professor.

I really enjoy the quest threads you run.

So, how fat is our seel implant going to make us?

>eyes, ears, nose.
>musculature
>Pelt and tail and cartilage
>Claws on feet.
>Non-sabre teeth in mouth
>Break up fangs to implant on fingertips

Although I wouldn't mind adding the sabre fangs to mouth for maximum ice breath bonus and just not use them for biting.

>not going for elbow-blades?
I know you're just joking, but hells no to the elbow blades.

>>28346377
>>28346392
Although what would be the difference between putting the teeth or the fangs on our fingertips?

Noticed that Crytten isn't in Ceru's pastebin at all. Waiting until things get finalized?

>>28346377
If we do that, sure. But having the sabres on our hands means we can use their freezing stuff really well on the water guns we have and on our hands. We can bitch slap people to freeze them or turn our Water Gun into an Ice Gun.

>>28346281

The best time of the week is finally here.

>>28346408
I think because when the Crytten parts evolve, the teeth gain auto-freezing property?

Also, I've been waiting for this.

>>28346408
In mouth makes Frost Breath and any mouth launched Ice attack more powerful. They probably wouldn't see any use for melee in mouth because biting pokemon seems like a very bad idea.

On fingertips means they're better for melee. Lower bonuses for ranged Ice attacks launched from mouth.

so am I getting this right? Icy wind has greater aoe and lasts longer, but frost breath penetrates armor and lowers the core temperatures of opponents.
They seem to overlap a bit too closely for separate skill point allocations.

Approve all the remoraid stuff.
Go for Amber Sabre fangs as armblades. I don't have much of an opinion on the rest, though I would like to know what is meant by cartilage layout

>>28346468
I don't want a pelt it seems like going too far on the furry side for me

>>28346527
We have a Remoraid in our arm

>>28346655
>We have a Remoraid in our arm
Remoraid isn't Crytten. Crytten is the part that's launching the breath attacks.

>>28346468
ok with everything as long as the cartilage does not stop are hugs and amber sabre on the mouth

>>28346468
Yes on the Lobe. Wherever it is best used.

Obviously Yes on guns.

Yes on the Pelt. As much area as it can manage prioritizing back, arms, legs, and chest in that order.

Yes on the claws.

Yes on Fangs.

Yes on Chilling Amber Sabre Fangs, fine with putting them in any position. Prefer armblade or claws, but no particular objections to them being in our mouth.

Yes on Freeze Sacs, spread throughout our body pretty evenly, higher concentration on our hands if possible.

Yes on Cartilage. Arms and legs, and the back is fine too.

Cat ears, eyes, and nose if those aren't already included.

>>28346635
Yeah I'd like to get an explanation of what exactly it would look like.

Whatever happened to adding Remoraid cells to our knees?

>>28346669
Oh, forgot to mention in here. Make sure we get the kitty tail.

And bits of Remoraid to facilitate suckers on our knees, feet, elbows, and hands.

>>28346667
You do realize can use ice attacks?

>>28346687
I assume the Crytten's snow pelt will replace the fur we already have growing on us?

>>28346468
approved for remoraid parts, although where on the throat are they?

Pelt only on the outside/back, to maintain hugging prowess.

Fangs approved

Long fangs approved as claws

Freezer sac approved

Cartilage approved

>>28346468
Everything sounds good for a yes. I'd just like to say that the sabre fangs should go either mouth or fingertips.

Fuck elbowblades.

>>28346712
I'm thinking it'll go on top. Layers upon layers of fuzziness.

>>28346702
Nah that's probably not necessary.

Plus it might just cause tentacles to sprout from those locations and who wants that?

>>28346602
One is aoe, the other is a focused shot that freezes through rather than bothering with ambient temperature.

You could ay it's kin to Ice beam except Ice-beam freezes over the surface.

>>28346655
>I don't want a pelt it seems like going too far on the furry side for me
You already have very fine seel fur.

>>28346669
>Cat ears, eyes, and nose if those aren't already included.
Forgot about that.

Cat-eye nightvision, sensitive ears, Tail, and carnivorous nose. (y/n?)

Tallying results shortly. Results that hold a majority opinion will be added.

Ice-spikes are nonretractible, however they will improve Ice-based movement which you can create anywhere with your setup.

>>28346714
>>28346712
Yes, and it's soft until frozen.

Popular opinion also seems to put the amber sabres in the mouth.

>>28346714
>approved for remoraid parts, although where on the throat are they?
Two of them will go into our hands, and the last one will replace the Seel's water sac currently in our throat.

>>28346728
Since the Seel's fur doesn't have any listed benefits, I'll assume the Crytten's is better.

>>28346705
The Remoraid parts are not what is going to be using Frost Breath. Just like how they aren't going to be what's doing Icy Wind.

>>28346714
This sounds good to me

>>28346733
Extra anchoring is useful for sniping, and it'll make us ever better at climbing.

>>28346746
Yes on cat vision, ears, tail and nose.

>>28346746
>Cat-eye nightvision, sensitive ears, Tail, and carnivorous nose.
Yes to all except the nose. The nose is a bit much for me.

>>28346746
>Cat eyes

>Sensitive ears

>Carnivore nose
We're still part seel so...well yeah, actually. Might be good for hunting.

>>28346746
Yes on kitty parts. They're all useful. If we can keep the nose stuff internal so much the better, but it'll be cute no matter what.

PROF

Can you answer whether Remoraids can do mouth-based Frost attacks?

There's an anon in the thread that seems to think that putting the fangs on our hands will still give the bonus to mouth based frost attacks "because remoraids".

>>28346746
y on all

>>28346746
What's the tail do? Balance?

How will those cat parts be affected by underwater excursions? Would we still be able to dive as deeply as we could if we had them?

>>28346468
>>28346746
Yes on everything. As much as we can put in us.

>>28346746
>>28346468

Yes to everything. Sabres in mouth.

So, what the hell are we going look like after this operation?

A white catgirl with a bit of bodyfat?

Our blubber is what matters for deep sea expeditions so I don't see why not.

>>28346746
Yes to the eyes, ears, and nose.

>>28346817

They cannot use Frost breath.
THey can use other types that can be increased.

>>28346836
And giant goddamn fangs. Oh, and the horn. Can't forget the horn.

>>28346746
eyes and ears sound like they could backfire, and they aren't as important underwater.

tail cus tails are awesome

can the nose be used underwater? smelling is very important, but I don't think cat noses are the same as fish "noses".

Yes we'll look like a horned catgirl. With spikes.

We really have to get our Tenacity up, ouch.

>>28346823
Tail will probably help with balance. Also, we can freeze it and make it into a weapon. And it'll be even more dangerous and hopefully fluffy when we evolve it.

>>28346836
A white catgirl with black and blue spots/stripes where the pelt is. Sharp teeth, cat eyes and ears, a cat nose, spikes along our arms and legs, a horn, claws, a fluffy tail.

Overall, super adorable.

>>28346873
Eyes will be fine, we have a second pair of eyelids from Seel just for protecting our eyes. The benefit of ears outweighs the downsides.

Nose is useful even if we can't smell things underwater. Tracking is useful.

>>28346873
Forgot about remoraid gills.

Tallying now for consideration.

Anything above ten, or unanimous will be added.

>>28346882
I think Kitty is really going to hate us after the operation.

>>28346882
We'll need to spend time recuperating. Submerging in water and using Rest seems to be a popular idea? It'd give us the opportunity to visit our friends at the Cerulean Gym too.

>>28346869
>These as claws seem pretty good, I don't wanna be a Chain-Chomp just yet
We don't have to bite with them, but putting them in mouth improves frost breath while putting them as claws does nothing to improve ranged options and is purely melee.

>>28346907
Yes, put in gills. Gills are hella useful. We want them for extended operations underwater.

>>28346746
>Remoraid parts.
Yes to both. Though I guess we can't use lock-on AND headbutt when in close range.
>Snowy pelt(Pending)
Yes. Only on the back.
>Claws[Allows free climbing/ grappling, melee bonuses] (Pending)
Yes
>Fangs[Allows biting/Will change the jaw upon evo](Pending)
Yes. A bigger mouth means bigger blasts.

>>28346907
I'm assuming the kitten parts (eyes, ears, nose) won't affect our ability to dive underwater?

>>28346907
Ooh, gills? Hell yeah.

>>28346907
Gills? fuck yeah!

>>28346925
>Yes. Only on the back.
Why limit ourselves like that?

>>28346468
All the Remoraid parts, including gills.

Yes on pelt, yes on claws, yes on fangs, Sabre Fangs in mouth, yes on sacs, yes on cartilage.

Yes on nose, eyes, ears, and tail. Yes on musculature if that isn't already included.

>>28346907
Yes to gills
>>28346746

Fangs and saber tooth. man, Cerulean is going to become a monster, isn't she? A big mouthed one, just like that Amnesia mosnter.

>>28346746
I'm still good with breaking the sabres apart and putting them in our claws, I don't think people are considering just how fucking obtrusive they would be to have two great big tusks in our mouth.

Could we at least kind of file them down and put them on our incisors, kind of spread it out a bit?

Still not a fan of the cartilage stuff, I really don't think they're necessary.

>>28346907
>>28346919
with the parts we're getting, we should just forget about the bident.
Melee is claws/bite, execution is climbing onto their back(with claws/spikes) biting the neck and FREEZING.

>>28347065
The cartilage means better maneuvering on ice. We can freeze the area around us and make it icy, more maneuverability on ice means we can run fucking circles around whatever we're fighting.

It's very much useful.

I'm picturing Ceru rolling into the Cerulean gym in her wheelchair, totally decked out as fuck with tons of parts, as everyone just kinda stares. Mouths agape. And she's all "hey guys what's up?" but they just keep starting.

I mean, we're almost more modded than Misty is at this point.

>>28346907
Sabre teeth as claws

>>28347100

Not useful against fire types, as they will just melt everything by simply existing. Also not useful in water, obviously.

>>28347137
Possibly moreso

>>28346907
>eyes, ears, nose.
>musculature
>Pelt and tail and cartilage on forearms
>Claws on feet.
>Non-sabre teeth in mouth

>>28347137
I think Misty still has more, since Horsea and Goldeen are pretty small aren't they?

>>28347065
i agree with the long fangs. I don't want Ceru looking like a barioth.

the benefit of the cartilage is way too good though.

I wanna see what Grumpy picked.

I was surprised to see how many other people supported tentacle arms in QTG, so I think it is worth talking about. The main concern the opposing party seemed to raise when it was mentioned in-thread was that they might get stuck to things inadvertently. I imagine holding them flat against our torso when not in use (perhaps looking like bandoliers). The primary benefit would be against non-melee oriented threats (and unevolved graft targets) which we can grab onto (possibly with the constrict move) and engage the contact based freezing technique. We have an inescapable icy death grip. also more arms for the hugging.

>>28346907
Whatever you do.

Just put the sabre teeth as claws and the extra teeth in our mouth.

I don't care about anything else.

>>28347137
They're just jealous of how super fluffy we are. We'll show them, we'll give them hugs and they'll love us again.

Once we acquire a significant other we'll probably make them brush all of our fur and pet our kitty ears.

>>28347176
Hers are evolved. Seadra and Seaking aren't that small.

>>28347190
It just wouldn't look good, anon.

>>28347161
I imagine for fire and other types strong against Ice we'd try a long-range approach.

Not really decided on the whole cartilage thing, but I think it has its uses.

>>28347190
What if

What if we got tentacle arms

And then put more remoraids on them for maximum dakka

>>28347190
OOC as fuck though

Plus ugly

and i think some were fucking around

>>28347161
If we're up against Fire types then we'll shoot them with Water Gun until they cry.

But against most everything else being able to freeze the battlefield and move around on it better than they can will be very useful.

Sabre fangs are going in the fingers, teeth in mouth.

>>28347243

>>28347304
Then theres this guy with a cluancher fetish.

You guys know that the targeting lobe is a passive thing right? like i dont think we need to use a move to sue it and it passively make all of our shots hit.

>>28347328
Oh god
Caterpie shit
IF WE HAVE THE SUPER NOSE
OH LORD

>>28347360
Cancer

>>28347364
Lock on + sheer cold is scarier

>>28347365
It isn't. Targeting lobe allows Lock-On, and it says it takes a turn of observation to take effect.

We may however be able to make it faster if we upgrade Lock-On.

Also, once Seel evolves we'll be able to do the Lock On + Sheer Cold bullshit combo.

>>28347315
>>28347375
Hey, we have gotten a lot of usefull discussion in the qtg. Especialy with the the Prof being there to answer questions

>>28347386
Clauncher has access to aura abilities if attack list is anything to by.

>>28347364
Now that would make Ceru look like a Daemonette.

>>28347386
Oh Arceus, that could allow to go toe to toe with legendaries.

>>28347397
Well the Remoraid Pokedex says that it will not miss within 300ft. i'm thinking we only have to use lock on with things like sheer cold and other low probability things.

I think for water gun it will be a constant thing

An hour has gotten 150 replies

Fuck you proffesssor

I'm jelly as fuck

To everyone spouting "LOCK+SHEERCOLD=WEWIN"...

there are a lot of pokemon with the Sturdy ability that could theoritically wreck out shit. Plus if Sheer Cold render the Pokemon unusable for harvesting then that won't be as big a help as we'd think.

>>28347404
The same discussion that ignored the downsides of eyes, ears and nose?

See no evil, hear no evil, smell no evil.

We're gonna have a problem here.

>>28347480
We don't have to worry about useability for any evolved pokemon.

>>28347480
that's just the easiest WEWIN.
We can also snipe them normal style with ice bullets.

We can also plug our nostrils with our Seel biology can't we?

Should have a decent lung capacity as well.

>>28347487
No downside to eyes.

the ear downside won't be bad and is pretty easily negated

The nose downside might be a problem, but only when we fight bugs.

>>28347480
and legendaries. i doubt he is going to let us freeze moltres solid

>>28347480
Most pokemons that would require that combo to defeat cannot be used for implants.

I wonder if legendaries would be harvestable.

>>28347366
>Caterpie
This reminds me

>>28347265
Prof, how close to the games are you holding with the omnigun-fish's versatility? As long as we have someone to teach us we can learn the TM/move tutor moves? (string shot is one of them, spider-man mode). If that is the case, I would want to go to Vermillion real soon to get thunderwave, (no idea who might be able to teach mirror move, though bird trainers were common in Fuschia, and it does seem sort of ninja-like).

>>28347510
Seels do have pretty impressive lung capacity. We ought to be able to hold our breath for a while.

>>28347528
I certainly hope so.

>>28347524
True, but I could totally see it killing S class threats.

>>28347510
>>28347524
Oh yeah, I forgot that we could plug our noses. 'Course, just like the time Oliver kicked sand into our eyes, we'll have to actually be prepared to plug our nose.

>>28347480
Almost anything that requires that combo is already evolved

>>28347524
Flash is now a magnitude more painful...

Lock On 1
Frost Breath 1
Icy Wind 4
Water Gun 3

We can afford that, yeah?

>>28347579
well, good thing we have lock-on

>>28347579
How many pokemon actually know flash, let alone use it very often?

Definitely worth night vision

>>28347543

You'll be able to learn various moves from others, however I'm more of the opinion that tm-based moves may just be harder to learn.

Bubblebeam is staying as Remoraid can learn it.

I would like to use TMs as a nice little reward now and again.

Fear not though, naturally learned skills will still be naturally learned and tutors are still available. String shot is an iffy one.

Sheer cold is an on-coordinate freeze that requires LoS. It is amazing though, yes.
Also: Stamina will be a thing from now on. 100% with adjusted increments per skill used and environments.

Projectile attacks do not use stamina.

>>28347622
Do we regen Stamina quicker in cold areas? It would make sense considering that Seels canonically get more active as the temperature drops.

>Projectile attacks do not use stamina.
But projectiles are what we're all about.

Kind of gives us an unfair advantage.

Projectiles have ammunition instead. We can run out of water.

>>28347638
Yes. Just as tropic environs may drain it.

>>28347651
Projectile as in water/rock/ice and so on. Beams are non-ammo, instead restricted by stamina.

>>28347596
Let's wait for the skill sheets

I don't think we have to buy lock on

and we should get water gun, cause of our accuracy

>>28347651
>unfair advantage
>in a world where almost everything wants you dead
nah

>>28347596
That should cost 7 xp, so yeah. Though we might want to hold off on more Icy Wind and get some melee stuff like Bite/Crunch, just in case.

And also improving things like Aquabatics, and maybe Amphibious Combat.

Honestly I want to sink a few points into aquatic maneuvering like swim and acrobatics just so we have an excuse to hang around our friends.

>>28347698
>Bite/Crunch
>biting pokemon
>putting our mouth on them
Dear god no.

>>28347698
Bite/crunch?

No, we got them on our fingers for a reason. Pokemon do not go in the mouth

>>28347622
can we put points in seel's water recovery ability? increase the speed that we regain stamina while maintaining mobility.

also, I don't remember if this has been asked before, but can we fill the water sacs with other liquids?
Alcohol to cool down enemies faster with evaporation or liquids that stay liquid at lower temperatures that we keep in our freezer sacs.

>>28347709
yeah, we need to go on down to the pool.

>>28347714
yeah, guns are good because you are only in danger of other guns, not guns and melees

Why do you think the progression of war has getting deadlier and deadlier from farther and farther away to the point where we kill from the other side of the world if we need to?

>>28347732
>also, I don't remember if this has been asked before, but can we fill the water sacs with other liquids?
Someone asked about filling them with jizz once.

>>28347709
Ditto. Our friends must be worried sick about us.(Except for Bryan, but he will be in about a week or two.)

>>28347698
Do you know where those have been or what their made of?
Then don't put them in your damn mouth.

>>28347732
Pretty sure it would be faster to hit them with water and icy wind.

Plus alcohol might get us drunk through osmosis

Shouldn't we have a cryokinesis ability somewhere?

Its mentionned in the Premature Freezer Array but I can't see it anywhere.

>>28347596

Lock On 1
Frost Breath 1
Icy Wind 4
Water Gun 3

Sounds like a good skill distribution.

>>28347788
>cryokinesis
Anything involving ice.

>>28347596
>>28347788
Couldn't we bulp that Frost Breath up to 2?

>>28347788
Let's wait to see the skill sheet.

Frost breath might not be available

>>28347732
I don't think we can improve Hydration, it's an ability and doesn't have a numerical rank associated with it.

With Remoraid guns we can probably use all sorts of projectiles from it. Remoriad/Octillery has a lot of weird moves on their move lists, including Psybeam, Grass Shot, Gunk Shot, Signal Beam, and Rock Blast. Fucking Psychic, Grass, Poison, Bug, and Rock attacks.

>>28347812
We are looking at the sheet. It's there right now. Everything listed there is available.

247 KB PNG

>>28347709
I concur with that.

We should get our fur wet.

>>28347785
water cools more total heat, but alcohol cools faster. icy wind will always be hindered by the fact that it's wind, and not liquid.

Looks like the sheet is updated.

Just tell us how the operation went!

>>28347806
Oh thank you Peerless Professor.

>>28347811
>>28347812
The skill sheet has been updated.

I am not sure about upgrading further ice breath, its seem to be a near range ability and we mostly focus on mid to long range fighting.

>>28347824
You forgot Flamethrower and Fire Blast.

>>28347841

About to. It's been bugging me too.

>>28347856
Those ones are only through TMs though, which makes them harder to pick up.

>>28347543
>and it does seem sort of ninja-like
SHARINGAN
Time to go find Poke-Kakashi

My vote is this:
Icy Wind (4)
Lock On (1)
Frost Breath (1)
Swim Speed (2)

>>28347938
Ok. I just wanted Frost Breath and Icy Wind. Don't much mind whatever the rest be.

>>28347824
It's basically anything which involves a beam or gun-type attack.

>>28347938
You do know that upping Icy wind to 4 will only cost 3 xp, and getting Swim Speed up to 2 will only cost 1, right?

We'd still have more exp to throw around.

I'd go for Icy Wind 4, Lock on 1, Frost Breath 1, Water Gun 3, Aquabatics 1.

>>28347955
Ya, Icy Wind eventually becomes Blizzard and if we do regain stamina from cold then thats one thing we want over everything else.

>>(Remoraid)Omniguns x3(10 corporal ammo cap): Enables projectile and beam based attacks. Neck & Forearms
It bugs me that this one uses parenthesis for the poke name while all the others use brackets.

>>28347988

Since I need to leave, I'll just leave my votes:
Frost Breath(2)=3
Bite(1)=1
Psybeam(1)=1
Swim Speed(+1)=2
Aquabatics(1)=1

I still have no idea how the skill pricing works

>>28348028
Unlikely since remoraid learns aurora beam and ice beam but not frost breath.

>>28348028
makes sense.

>>28348073
How do you people still not get that the Frost Breath is from Crytten and not Remoraid?

>>28348106
That was my point. Why would frost breath become ice beam when something can learn ice beam but not frost breath?

>>28348106
I don't think he was implying that at all.

>>28348028
Frost Breath and Ice Beam do different things.

FB is armour piercing and penetrates to freeze internals. Ice Beam hits the surface.

>>28348073
>>28348074
>>28348126
>>28348127
You two are really simultaneous, geez.

>>28348106

can we get a possible moveset for Crytten?

>>28348144
We'll get it when Prof updates the pastebin.

208 replies and no updates yet. Arceus fucking dammit.

>>28347981
Sounds fine to me.

Frankly, I'd prefer it if we moved on ASAP.

Would Ice Fang work with the tooth claws, since those got put in the fingertips or would we actually have to bite with mouth teeth?

>Writing now, by Arceus I need this too.

>>28348209
Yes.

>>28348209
i think we get it passively since it says they are directly linked to our freeze glands.

Frostbite is passive upon evolution

>>28348232

>>28348222

It's cause we're voting. Don't worry anon. We've still got lots of time.

>>28348210
I justhave to ask one thing Professor.

If machokes do not attack unless attacked first, shouldn't their threat level be really low?

One of the big factor I've seen for threat level was agressivity.

>>28348210
I really like all the upgrades from Crytten. The Freezer Sacs along with the Hide means our core temperature stays nice and cool but doesn't leak out.

One of our biggest worries, heatstroke, has just been deal with pretty effectively.

And we have a fluffy tail! So many cool bonuses from this.

>>28348272
or if the ranger is fighting something and a bit of collateral hits the machoke.

or a rookie panics.

or you try to steal its machop

>>28348272
Depends on how a machoke interprets 'attacked.' Entering territory can set that instinct off afterall.

>>28348320

>>28348341
yep.

I really feel like this stamina system is unbalanced and is gong to need adjusting.

And i am assuming that the ice affects on our sabreclaws is entirely passive? like it says for frostbite?

>>28348386
We don't even have the Frostbite ability until the Crytten parts evolve.

In the darkness, you feel pieces of your body float away, and your senses slowly cut off.

Your sense of smell leaves you, the lingering smells of the hospital room depart, and in time they return, sharper more acute. You smell blood, your own blood as your eyes are taken next, the flickering black replaced by the purest of darkness.

Void.

Soon that too returns and still you see so little, though there's an odd purple mix now.

The muffled voices of doctors leaves and soon you hear everything, the subtle tinkling, the whir of the machines even within your sleep. Your cold, cold sleep.

Time is a fickle creature here as it seems to pass slowly, yet also so quickly. You feel the numb tingling of your arms pried open, flesh ripped asunder and then something invasive.

Yet it would still pale in comparison to being skinned alive and having a new suit place atop your raw body. A vital force breaches your body as a chill takes hold, running your blood cold.

Comfortable at first as it carries on. They tear apart more of your body and add in further things that you cannot see.

It keeps getting colder. It doesn't feel quite as good now.

It keeps getting colder... colder.

It hurts.

Your eyes open and you see people around you, red crystals upon their hands as your mind dives into panic as the pain increases. You breath, gasping out a shivering breath.
"C-cold.. h-hurts..."

Disembodied voices begin to synchronize with your growing panic.

"She's awake- she's awake! It's too soon! put her back under! The blood is freezing!"
"I'm trying, but it won't take."
"Put the sleep powder aeration back in her oxygen, we can't have her-"

The voices scare you, and you try to push up, yet your body won't move, you struggle against restraints, feeling some give, yet the numbness keeps on creeping.

>>28348408
we have a weakened version of it.

Oh dear.

Having major surgery while not fully under is the most universal of fears. Shit would suck.

>>28348575
Didnt we had like..2 critfails in a row?

>>28348638
which were cancelled at the cost of 10 tenacity.

We were awake while being skinned alive.

Thats gonna stick with us.

>>28348638
yes. we used up 6 tenacity to ignore them.

>>28348638
Yeah, but we bought them off with 10 Tenacity

>>28348635
Ehh, we're so cold i doubt we feel anything but cold.

>>28348638
They got erased by a tenacity burn. They should not count. I will be very mad if they do, since we burned 10 tenacity to get that 94.

>>28348638
Yeah, hence our lowered tenacity. We had to spend 10 points to counteract the 2 failures.

Basically, this means we have a -2 penalty for physical actions. Until we can recover (that is to say, reach 10 points) again.

>>28348638
We burned tenacity to force them to be ignored in favor of the higher rolls.

That's the kind of system this is. When you have massive critfail ranges, you need to have a pretty good number of saves.

>>28348635
Especially if said surgery involved having all of your skin replaced and frozen blood being pumped into you.

>>28348662

>Pokelife is hard on a young girl

>>28348728
Yeah, but she didn't feel the pain. just kind of "that isn't there" but sedated as fuck so she doesn't really care.

until this happened

"Nurse Remedy, keep her calm, keep her calm."

A womanly blur looms over you, touching your hair with a gloved hand.
"Be calm child, be calm. We're not quite done yet, your cold is getting the best of you. Please stay calm."

The touch is soothing and you begin to slow down your breathing, but it doesn't stop the creeping frost. You shake your head, wanting to cry.
"Its c-c-cold.."
And it hurts.

"You need to stop it, you need to calm down and control it, you know how to do that, yes?"

You nod weakly at the muffled words as you try to think, try to remember how you controlled the cold, how you turned it on and off.

It keeps creeping, and you see frost forming upon the nurse's gloves, traveling up her arm, and yet she doesn't let go.
"Keep trying child, keep trying."

"Remedy, move, she needs to sleep or we're going to lose her."
A man pulls the woman away, and you see a bright light from above, blinding you.

Calm down, you think to yourself. The logical part of your mind.
But everything is just so cold and-
Cold.
You're Cerulean, daughter of Lorelei, Ice Ranger of the Elite Four that protect Kanto City.

You grit your teeth, blood filling your mouth as you fight through. You're going to be great, the cold is your ally. The cold is the closest thing you have to remind you of your mother.

You're going to make mom proud.

With a beastial scream, you startle the doctors, sending them back a moment as you resume frenzied breaths, and in the next forcing out a blast of cold air, displacing the lack of heat in your own body, and freezing the light above you.

With the numbness fading away, you slip back into darkness.

You're the daughter of Lorelei.

Yeah, now that we have Ice Claws the Pewter style of fighting would work pretty well for us.

Definitly need to change around the style some to reflect that the talons do the work rather than our relatively weak arms, and evading attacks rather than taking the hits. Maybe a good time to learn Evade.

>>28348909

I'm not so sure, anon. We Crytten muscles now.

So you don't want more friends?

Awakening later in a recovery ward, you find Bruise at your side, snoozing away in a chair. Your body still feels strange, cold and still somewhat numb. You can see your breath too, chilling the air.
It scares you at first, terrifies you from what you felt earlier, you clutch at your chest, feeling your healing factor kick in as the stitches gradually degrade into your body

A glance at your hands, and you see that they're covered in bandages along with the rest of your body. You must look like a mummy right now, a cold, little chubby mummy.
