Hilgar helps the guy sit up, which is a little difficult as he is kind of floppy.
Hilgar: "There there, we're not demons. or goats. We're robolds!"
Mirrak: "We're here to trade, and not in souls!"

The salamander sniffles and wipes his eye. "So that isn't one of the pillars of hell come to herald the endless day?" He looks to the distant Jormun, drifting ever downward.

Murdoc: "Nah, mate" the hunter says, plopping the horns back on his head. "Just a big wurm."

The three surround the goatherd, eagerly awaiting him to make the next move. The lizzbolds have adjourned to some nearby rocks to nap in the sun. The salamander pets the goat in his lap while staring at Jormun for a while, glancing nervously at the bolds around him.

salamander: "So, uh, if you're not from around here, how do you know our language?"

Mirrak: "Just a little brain trick we robolds have!" she taps the side of her head. "Don't worry about it."

salamander: "Oh that's, huh." he seems a little lost, but shrugs it off. "Sorry, we don't get many visitors up here. It's just me and the goats. I'm Sinni, by the way." Climbing to his feet and brushing the last loose leaves off, Sinni backs up a step and gives the bolds a sinuous bow. "Please be welcome on our lonely peak. So eh, what is it you seek on this lonesome peak?"

>>1100438
Information, first and foremost. We seek knowledge of these lands, like what settlements are nearby and what resources there are to trade for. We can provide numerous services that are likely in short supply in these parts, and maybe some interesting materials not found here, though in that case we have a limited supply...

One important thing to seek would be making it clear that Jormun is just a longboi and not a pillar of Hell. He did accidentally (?) fall into their world, and then fell into it again recursively, to avoid crashing into the ground. I imagine if there are sapiant beings nearby, they might be a little concerned about it.

On the note of services in particular - healing (and potentially alterations) are some of your specialties. Do they require maintenance, or are they set-it-and-forget-it kind of things? I don't remember. Anyway, ask if there's anyone who is sick or injured, you can help. Alterations have the potential to be even more valuable, but also could cause consternation and should be approached tactfully in case e.g. they take it as an affront to the Creators or st.

You know, maybe before you lost your memories, you were able to keep him silenced before, just like now, which might actually put your pre-amnesia self in a better light.

>>Gene-angels bred for purpose of supersoldier from various Kretra selected lineages and gene-splicing in the Core galaxies of the Kretra Super-Empire.

>>Gene-angel agility build is the perfected form of Gene-angels for responsiveness, neural pathing and a critical phenomenon described commonly as non-thinking among gene-psychologists, making them perfected all-biological killing-machines.

>>Defences. Agility Gene-angels are adamantly rooted in their ability to avoid contact until a critical strike is opportunized, speed of movement and "miraculous" fluid-like evasion of attempted attacks. Their bodies consist of meta-elements called Fluions and neuro-restructuring muscle-joint biomaterials, that are behind a extraneously heavy biological hyperbreeding and genetherapeutic readjustment processes. The agility properties of Agility Gene-angels would be best popularized in the neocommercial series of Terminomutant-1000 from Judgement Utopia season 17.

Agility gene-angels commonly are structured with joint-muscle mass and do not possess any kind of other structural skeleton, that would inhibit its fluid movement, albeit the gene-angel attempts to mimic bonestructured walking style to provoke anti-bone attacks then to evade such attempts and looking for an opportunity to single-slice through opponent's defences to a critical location with its adamantium-bone arm-blades.

Oh, I just felt something. Is that you, Muni? I was wondering why you've been so quiet. It's been about a week since we last spoke. A lot has happened since then, and we've been quite busy.
The farm you suggested, while not finished, is in a state where we've started to plant seeds in the finished plots; the approximate yield won't be something that we could trade with at the moment, but enough for emergencies. We've got a fundamental outhouse setup with a pit for ease of dung collection, which Kent has surprisingly taken care of despite it's stench. and a storage area doubling as beds for the freed people. The construction of individual huts or homes and furniture is still underway. It's enough progress that we can allow ourselves a little rest in between and nearing the end of the gruelling work hours.
I've never worked this hard before, and my physical body feels the same.

As for the freed people, besides work talk, I've not had much time to get to know them individually; I'm currently taking a break as I don't think I can push myself anymore. Getting to know the freed people would be friendly. The children have been helping with our jobs, but we've been allowing them time to play and be kids, and we're not at the point where we need extensive child labour.

I asked Kent and Aludem :Auldem_normal_noanims:
if they were spying on us, telling them why I wasn't accusing them of wrongdoing and how those skills could be helpful in the future.
Kent said nothing, his stomach mostly grumbling. Meanwhile, Aludem took all the credit and loudly boasted about his accomplishments and past accomplishments; Auldem has been loudly complaining while helping us with work, begging and moaning to know when we'll send somebody or something to go on an adventure or even a supply run.

Trick, Kent, and Baredibor :baredibor_normal_noanims:

Time well spent grey mother.
Bedding should be a secondary priority now.
Anything made can be moved to the eventual residence.

Have you cohsidered spending a little time making a simple game?
Skittles, chess, dice, even something as simple as a stick to throw rocks at.
Something to relax with and perhaps socialise around.
Build bonds.
Learn who works well with each other and those who do not.
A community is like any construction, you have to know where every part goes best or it will fail to work.

Time to get to know some people. You'll need to learn who you can trust so you can delegate tasks.
Getting enough shelters built for everyone is the next priority. Don't want people getting sick and unable to work.

They'd probably look good in a monochrome asymmetrical one piece dress.
Maybe a patterned outfit with a mix of light and dark shades. A toga would work well too.

Also you're right, this whole mind thing seems completely unlike what we've done before. Nothing about our abilities have ever had any subtle effect, especially on the mind, which is why I feel a good portion of what you're feeling is really you.
Trust me, when we exert our influence it's pretty obvious, you'll typically blank out for a while when following a command, as far as I'm aware it's the same thing we could do to those who hold us for long enough, but allows it at a distance, kind of like what happened with Sergei when we first met him. So it must be some quirk of his rather than ours.
Seriously though, the things we made Venian Makag do with that power...
Well, we're a bit more careful with it now of course, nobody wants a puppet emperor.
Ah, don't tell Sergei we forced Venian Makag to do kinkplay though, it'd hurt his national pride.

That's ok, because you love thrashing it to bits, the only ounce of joy you can remember right now is how good it felt feeling that things ankle crunch.

I'm betting it'd feel amazing to see it's head crunch and turn into a pile of splintered circuitry. That would probably heal all the wounds and make things seem positively rosy again. Just don't slow down, for even a second.

Oh right we know the dinodata does *something* when applied directly to a repteka, so let's apply some to ROCKS to see if that heals his severe damage.

Need to get back to NEW HOME so you can make it safe from the RAD AMOEBAs. Doing that with DIIRA and BIG RAD YOLKIE will be hard, but what else can you do?

Ah, I just realized there's one option we've been ignoring. We can send Reptekas out to go get things. Not just raw resources though, we can go fetch stuff from our base(s)! We can, for instance, fetch enough materials to repair the CART, which should allow us to transport the giant Rad Yolky.

Alternatively;
BLU go back with the radyolkies and fetch TOXIC WASTE for travel rations, and let the radyolkies eat waste at the site so they get bigger, which would let us travel faster and also fight the radmoebas better. And while that would potentially result in creating more giant immobile radyolkies down the road, what's more important is that we survive the trip back home.

I guess the nailed plank could serve as a weapon.
You could try to use a pole to pry up the garage door, maybe... Or try to force the lock on the gate with the hammer and screwdriver. Use them like a hammer and chisel? Do you have any idea how to pick a lock? You have most of the tools needed here, you're just missing something thin enough to put into the lock and manipulate the pins.

If you can pry up the garage door you could put the plank(s) under it to keep it propped up. Hmm, you could even use the pliers and hammer to blunt the opening so it's less dangerous, but hammering it would be very loud.

Well you could twist all the barbs away, but that would take a long time. Propping up the garage door seems quickest.
And keep one of the poles as a weapon, or the nail plank. Whichever isn't too heavy.

Aw that hammer isn't broken. It's just been shortened for use with smaller paws/hands. You could use the (shortened) hammer and the screwdriver to probably bust the hinges off that door and climb the ladder. Problem is, that's gonna be LOUD!

Just try to pick a lock with that screwdriver. And keep it for now, it should work as a shiv.

Derringer stock? Lockpick? This feels like the sort of thing we shouldn't convert into something else immediately. The potential is worth more than a toothpick launcher at the moment.

The new guys could be useful. If they're really that talented, then if we can spring them, they might be a big enough distraction to cover whatever we're doing. The downside is that they might be loose enough canons that we get caught in the crossfire. Communication is gonna be limited, but scoping out exactly what their talents are and how dangerous they would be to us should be a high priority.

What's that in the lower-left corner? It looks kind of irregular, not intended, especially with the discoloration. Does it go somewhere, is it a pipe, or just a random, unintended hole from a stray gunshot or something? Did someone punch it and leave blood around the jagged edges?

That toothpick is going to turn into your life line here. Might even be able to use it as a lockpick.

If you made a low-grade gun with the Concealment trait, something prone to failure and nigh-incapable of firing but with a supernatural chance of evading discovery, you could put the splinter in its hole.

No matter what, continue to make getting unstuck your primary focus. The chances of you getting killed for "resisting" shoot way up if you're still stuck in place when your turn at trial comes around. And if you do actually decide to resist, this is an extremely disadvantaged position from which to do so.

In the meantime...

"So, Barbara; I know one half of why you're here - you were found guilty of something death penalty-worthy regardless of whether you actually did it. But if this trend of 'special talents' continues... what special ability have you supposedly got that made the authorities extra scared of you?"

Come to think of it... this whole production seems wildly unprofessional for the purpose it's supposedly serving. There's duct tape holding down the intercom button. The way the 'contestants' have arrived is inconsistent in several ways. There are robot guards, but they're wielding wooden spears - and they aren't even in particularly good shape.

Actually... try asking everyone where they're from, come to think of it; specifically, where they were arrested and sentenced. Compare stories in full (assuming the new guys can take their tape off now that they aren't being watched), making no assumptions about details like that. I'm still of the theory that this whole show isn't legitimate, at least beyond a certain point. A front for some criminal group underbid for the right to handle the "disposal" of death-row inmates from various places - that only some inmates had to sign paperwork could suggest they're from different places with different laws and procedures pertaining to prisoners' rights. The goal, of course, is to recruit different criminals with supernatural abilities and help them 'disappear' off the living record to become everymen with no history and thus theoreticall

That’s cool I guess, doesn’t beat something though. Something is waaaay better.

Enable Dowsing option:

This better be a real quest or I will give you a spam-kin'.

I get the feeling theres a pair of mice with a clipboard taking notes as we bash our collective heads against this maze...

Hm.
Maybe its pictographic?
Responds to images.
Not normally the done thing to post an image unbidden in someone elses quest though so...

Addendum; Or, perhaps even more worryingly in an attempt to prevent our own future from coming to pass europe was intentionally nuked by the mutineers or a radical faction of mutineers (a victory lap was mentioned in the dream, someone took things too far…). Destroying Europe could have been a desperate gamble to have things turn out differently.

Didn’t work though, because here we are again, different players, same events. Guess its just human nature.

I'm not sure we caused the nuclear blasts. Those may have been part of the colonization efforts. The "victory lap" that broke the camel's back.
Regardless, both Disquiet and Rage agreed that it had to be done. They were both certain that it was necessary to kill everyone, because of what was at stake.

>>1099132
Do you remember what was at stake?

Dear god, we are time colonists.

But what does that have to do with orbital nuclear bombardment of ancient Rome? Was that... why "it was necessary?" They weren't trying to stop Rome's ostensible evil, so much as set up shop there? And you fucked shit up so they couldn't? Why nuclear, then? It'd make the whole place unusable! The colonists already left the moon and took over Rome, and you... had no other way to breach their planetary defense systems?

This is getting nowhere. Are... are you "kid?" Are you OK?

Maybe if you can find security logs from the medical bay you can find out what was in the box she smuggled in. (Or maybe the boxes they use there are like the one you found the pipe bomb in.)
Also, a club, huh? I hope it was in habitat 3. Maybe you could go there to relax.

And I suppose we should keep some brain cells on the lookout for "the thing we were supposed to do". Nothing occurs to me yet, but maybe it'll click for somebody else.
