PuddOmega: http://tgchan.org/kusaba/draw/src/138662842310.png how is it?
LimeBreaker: menacing.
PuddOmega: good
PuddOmega: it's necro
PuddOmega: in a post apoc enviroment
PuddOmega: long before the quest started
PuddOmega: 40000 years before
Seven01a19: Pudd: Necro is 40,000 years old?
starburst98: he apparently lived through the apocalypse.
Seven01a19: That's like 10x longer than would be credible for post-apocalyptic reconstruction.
starburst98: maybe he fell asleep? and the world was never that advanced n the first place.
Seven01a19: I expect this means 'magic' is actually some sort of advanced technology.
Seven01a19: Oh, nevermind then.
Seven01a19: Still, the people would have had to stayed nomadic. Once people settle down civilization follows immediately.
starburst98: the corruption is magic radiation. which so far only necro has leaned how to turn back into usable energy.
Seven01a19: And unless you have a system of very strict traditions, you're going to start developing very soon after that.
starburst98: also, who says that was the ONLY apocalypse?
starburst98: what if humanity forgot the lesson and did it again
starburst98: and it got worse and worse each time, with more corruption spreading further
PuddOmega: back
Seven01a19: That's possible.
PuddOmega: humanity did it 5 times
PuddOmega: he is older
PuddOmega: and last apoc made civilization a bit hared to restart
starburst98: put this in the dis thread
PuddOmega: more then 90% of the intelligent species went extinct
PuddOmega: this whole conversation?
Seven01a19: Things that make civilization hard to restart include consumption of all readily available fuel sources.
Seven01a19: Going back to the first apocalypse, was that a high-tech society?
PuddOmega: well, most stuff were fueled by migic
starburst98: the ideas behind it. that the world was blasted back to the stone age 5 times.
PuddOmega: first one was ours
starburst98: and how civs started again after the last one.
Seven01a19: Oh, ok. Then species differentiation was the result of humans tweaking themselves for fun and profit.
PuddOmega: yep
PuddOmega: partially
PuddOmega: those are the few one who suevived the last apoc
Seven01a19: As such, you would expect most 'species' to be able to interbreed initially, although there's a small chance that might have changed in the intervening years.
PuddOmega: most of the others were created by the gods
PuddOmega: like human and felyne
starburst98: i can easily see that after the 4th one they finally consumed all the surface and sub surface coal.
Seven01a19: Star: We're on track for that long before the first.
Seven01a19: Likewise, magic would likely be an expression of sufficiently advanced technology - ambient nanomachines, maybe?
Seven01a19: The gods, then, would actually be system administrators.
starburst98: more like pure energy
starburst98: that some can harness
PuddOmega: well
PuddOmega: yes and no
PuddOmega: there are uhh
Seven01a19: And thus Legion would be backups of sentient minds which are partially manifested.
PuddOmega: 10?
PuddOmega: who are actual gods
starburst98: necro can purify corruption, which so far has been seen to cause tons of mutations.
PuddOmega: that exist because they are the base ofthe reality
Seven01a19: Mutation and insanity. Seems more chemical than radioactive.
PuddOmega: but many god then spawned
Seven01a19: So the first apocalypse was Shadowrun?
PuddOmega: and decided to make their own species
starburst98: okay so.. there are the overgods, which were the first. then the undergods who were born after.
PuddOmega: last apoc wiped most of the new "gods"
PuddOmega: taking the species they made with them
starburst98: overgods were probably things like... life, death?
PuddOmega: they were consumed by the corruption
starburst98: anthropomorphic concepts.
PuddOmega: yep
PuddOmega: elemets too
PuddOmega: life and death are a sub god of life and dark
starburst98: cause if we suggest based on this information other people could think we are making bad plans because they don't know.
PuddOmega: light and dark
PuddOmega: the corruption surce is something i can't tell yet
PuddOmega: cause massive spoiler
starburst98: that's cool
PuddOmega: but pretty much is a form of waste energy
***sharah cooks some soulpudding
PuddOmega: they are mint flawored and higly nutritous
PuddOmega: anyway it mess up with most magic inclined creature making their body unstable
PuddOmega: there are way to prevent this, but they all go down to be way to reduce such affinity or shielding an area from it
Seven01a19: Sounds like toxic waste.
PuddOmega: wath the corruption actually is a big spoiler too
<Seven01a19> I would imagine magic is the residue produced by magic usage.
<Seven01a19> *corruption is
<starburst98> yes but it was a sudden affliction
<starburst98> there were magical creatures that didn't have any, but then suddenly did.
<Seven01a19> Counterpoint: Lake Erie catching fire was a sudden affliction.
<starburst98> unless corruption is also a catalyst.
<Seven01a19> But the causes had already been present for quite awhile.
<starburst98> aka magic when it hits corruption generates more corruption
<starburst98> so when a single drop hit a magical creature it went haywire.
<Seven01a19> Then it would be spreading out of control, since magic is ambient.
<Seven01a19> If, however, it converts the residue magic leaves behind into more corruption, then the usage of magic in the presence of corruption would generate more corruption.
<starburst98> yes... so when the big bang happened the world had tons of non-reactive residue.
<starburst98> that just all started changing into corruption.
<Seven01a19> Big bang? I was under the impression that magic was introduced at some point.
<starburst98> the big bang of death
<Seven01a19> Since he said the first apocalypse is OUR apocalypse.
<starburst98> magical nukes
<Seven01a19> Oh
<starburst98> or something
<Seven01a19> There would have to be corruption already for that to happen.
<starburst98> the bomb could of used it, the discovered it in the lab, and put it in a bomb
<Seven01a19> I dunno what the half-life of corruption is, so I can't tell if that would leave areas of permanent corruption or not.
<Seven01a19> Pudd: What's the half-life on corruption if it's left on its own?
<starburst98> yes but the fallout it was did bad stuff
<starburst98> all that corruption in the air spread out
<starburst98> and interacted with all the residue
<Seven01a19> If that were so then ALL magical creatures would be corrupted.
<starburst98> distance could be a factor
<starburst98> th ones with a X area are all corrupt
<starburst98> but as you get further the percentage goes down
<Seven01a19> That's testable!
<Seven01a19> It would result in explicit areas of persistant corruption!
<starburst98> well, when we get back in control we can ask about that.
<starburst98> since it's specific location data.
<starburst98> instead of world as a whole, think it would be better to ask in thread
<Seven01a19> OR we could just ask Pudd if there are large areas of persistant corruption, since that's general world knowledge
<PuddOmega> sorry was distracted
<PuddOmega> the corruption appeared during the 4th apoc, but was contained by the light god until the last apoc
<starburst98> that tells me some dumbass did something really... space piratey, with it.
<starburst98> that may ahve trigged the 5th
<PuddOmega> magic appeared around the time of the first apoc and was turn in a more controled thing after the second apoc
<PuddOmega> the incorrect usage of it was the reason of the second apoc, btw
<PuddOmega> fourth one, spoiler
<Seven01a19> Sounds like Necro is set in Shadowrun.
<PuddOmega> third to fourt there was a good mix between tech and magic
<PuddOmega> i actually don't know well shadowrun
<PuddOmega> readf at all
<PuddOmega> also
<starburst98> http://www.vgmemes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/inject-it-into-ourselves.png
<PuddOmega> how old you thnk necr is?
<PuddOmega> lol
<PuddOmega> pefect plan
<Seven01a19> Pudd: You said he was alive 40,000 years ago.
<PuddOmega> yeah
<Anon44> INJECT IT INTO OURSEEEEEEEEEEELVES
