Taking questions for Richard Legard and Marina Nicodelli.

Maz: Uh, did we, dude?

Yocherry: Nope.

Maz: Um. Yeah. I don't, uh, remember that? Killing them? Whoever, uh, they are?

Yocherry: Monitor don't, either, boss, but that ent stoppen them from accusen us!

Maz: Is, uh, this, um, slander, dude?

Yocherry: Monitor don't deal in real fact, Maz. This's all they got. Bread and butter, right here.

I'd appreciate both your thoughts on it, as well as the others if you've got time. =]

RACES:-

Thri-Kreen (Mantis-people)

Chitinous Exoskeleton: +1 Armour at all times. May wear Armour from one tier above their Class restrictions, where relevant. (For example, a Thri-Kreen Brawler with the Slugger trait would be able to wear Mail Armour, but not Heavy Armour or above.)

Rending Claws: +2 Cir and +1 Damage when Dual-Wielding; +1 Cir and +2 Damage unarmed.

Natural Monk: If you are not a Monk, pick one of the Monk's abilities and take it. If you are a Monk, you get both abilities.

Fungoid (Mushroom-people)

Collector: Has +2 Armour against all sources of damage except Fire. You gain the Shield Wall class trait, regardless of whether or not your character is a Knight.

Watcher: May take a turn to attempt to either control or improve a single object made of wood or similar organic materials in the room, made on a DC of the DM's discretion. May not be used in combat.

Decayer: Do +1 Damage to a target for every unarmed attack you made on it in the last three turns. -2 Armour in all situations.

Nehekharan (Dead-people)

Tomb King: +2 Damage when wielding two-handed weapons of any kind. +2 Cir when talking to commoners and merchants, -2 Cir when talking to nobles and similar elites.

Mortuary Cultist: +1 Cir, Armour, and Damage when fighting Undead of any kind, with a further +2 to all of the above against Vampires. You gain the Necromancer class trait, regardless of whether or not you are a Wizard.

My Will Be Done!: All allies in the room (NB: This does not include yourself) may Charge, regardless of whether or not they are Centaurs. If they are Centaurs, they may stop their Charge at will rather than take damage or hit an ally.

===

CLASSES:-

Mercenary

Doppelsoldner: +1 Cir, +1 Damage, and +2 Armour when wielding a two-handed melee weapon. -2 Damage from Ranged Weapons. May not wear Plate Armour

Freelance: +3 Damage when using spears and/or lances, -2 Damage from all other weapons. Injuries heal faster the heavier Armour tier you wear.

Martial Artist: May make two additional unarmed attacks per round OR make their weapon deal +1D3 extra damage this round. May not use sharp weapons, but blunt weapons gain +1 Cir. Cannot wear Light Armour or better.

Ninja: Enemies have -3 Cir when attacking this character at range, while you gain +2 Cir and +2 Damage using throwing weapons. Your throwing weapons do not require ammunition. Cannot wear Mail Armour or better.

Shaman

Witch Doctor: Enemies have -2 Cir when attempting to use Magic Items and/or spells. Allies, including yourself, gain +1 Cir and +2 Armour if they are holding a Magic Item. Cannot use Mail Armour or better.

Medicine Man: Can create/control Ectoplasm in the same way that Sorcerors can Fire or Ice. Works in the same way; however, allies and enemies alike suffer -1 Cir when fighting while Ectoplasm is being used. +3 Cir when looting a room for healing items. Cannot wear Light Armour or better.

Is it true that you murdered Building Maintenance employees Bingle and Filch, then took their places and transferred to WhatThe in what begins a mad takeover of the entire PPC by you and your cronies and will eventually lead to the Multiverse being overrun by Sues?

'Dude, uh, is that, um, necessary?' Maz asked.

'You'd be surprised, boss,' Yocherry replied, flicking a series of switches across the side of the weapon. He held some kind of slide-mechanism along its barrel, and pulled it. It ran down with harsh clacking noises, and the gun purred to life with an electric hum.

'Don't got the grenades this time. Sorry, boss.'

'Grenades?' Maz said, feeling slightly left out of the loop.

Yocherry shook his head mournfully.

'None.'

He punched a button on his console. His grip on the gun tightened.

'Let's see what we got, boss.'

• Maz and Yocherry are (arguably) up for questions! Let's hope we don't break them. That includes the console, by the way.

What's your move set? Is it designed for combat, or stealth, or without anything in particular in mind?

Given what you're wearing (or not as the case may be) certain genders may or may not be a bit more distracted than usual when you fight them.

laughs Nope, we're just buddies.

We at the Multiverse Monitor hear that you've got a thing for a certain Jolteon who's over in DIA, hmm? Can you confirm what our source has said?

Assuming that there would be many, many humanoid enemies in the dungeon under that description.

Right now, I've just been trying to get him to Rudi's more often, but he just kind of clams up around all those agents. He thinks he'll give away too much if he talks, see, and even handshakes scare him because, well. Scars.

Maybe I should just invite some of my friends over and tell Ix he can't hide in the bedroom. That could work.

Do you have any plans for building up your partner's self-confidence, or do you think Ix will just stay down for the foreseeable future?

Name: Keegra Bloodfist

Gender: F

Race: Half-Orc (Tough Hide, Natural Barbarian [Vanguard])

Class: Monk (Martial Artist)

Health: 22 (12+10)

Anything else: Wears warpaint and... not much else. She likes to fight with her teeth and fists.

Because of how vampirism works in Skyrim, I get more powerful the less I feed, so I tend not to do so very often. When I do, I tend to feed on Generic Characters. Feeding on people who are awake (and powerful enough) is outright impossible, so it's the only option. Oh, and vampirism isn't passed on by feeding in any case, so it's perfectly harmless to the characters.

What could possibly give you that idea?! This is ridiculous! I wouldn't go NEAR the Aviator if you paid me.

It's impossible, anyway. She was pregnant before I showed up, and I'm not going back in time to impregnate her.

Now the rumor's addressed, let me make this quite clear: To the Multiverse Monitor:

Stay.

The hell.

Away.

I don't want you near my RC again. You obviously can't keep your facts straight, and you're perpetuating ridiculous gossip. I'd say this is beneath you, but I'd be lying.

• D

You gonna drink Sue-blood like Charlotte? Have you had a taste yet?

Are the rumors true that you are actually the biological father of the Aviator's child?

Hello! I've heard everyone's taking questions, so I thought I'd do my best to answer a few of them. Dee refuses to touch the thing, so I thought I'd answer any questions you guys might have. And yes, Dee, I know you're reading over my shoulder. Well, you don't have to participate, if that's how you feel about it. Dee, just shut up and let me type. Thank you.

Right, so. . . Questions for the Detective and Jack Riggs?

That's the beauty of taking Tentacle Tangle. Against the many, many humanoid enemies in these dungeons - two arms, two legs, size class Medium, and so on - it actually balances out! It only becomes a problem when facing something like, say, a Dragon, and if I have the full attention of a Dragon when I'm only wearing light armour, well, I've got bigger problems. =]

I'll take questions for Yinz'r and Jacob!

Might sound a bit odd, but... what's your favorite bird?

Taking questions for Agent!Tomash and Peregrin (the Millenarian, not the hobbit)

Well, if I could go back as I am now... I probably would. I'm a lot stronger now than I was back then, and I'd be able to save my friends who didn't make it. Plus, knowing about the games would give me a huge help in that regard.

...though changing the past probably isn't a good idea, is it...? sigh

I know I was level 36 when I died, but now... I have no idea. It's not like it really matters in the PPC, you know?

If you got the chance to go back into your original Nuzlocke, but as you are now, at the start of it and able to find your old trainer right at the start, knowing everything you do now, would you do it? If so, what would you do? Oh, and, since it just occurred to me, what level are you?
