Sudanna

Maybe you could gain a couple of valuable crystals, about 500xp, and a ring of puresteel.

Sarcasm? Petty, compared to complete, soul-crushing evil and depression.

Well, you must admit, it is a girly name. Not quite as bad as Nikki, though. No offense.

Sitting still in a cave for a year and a half. Not necessarily alive. It gives the lichen time to grow, you see.

You lived in a cave? Nalyd's soul is a cave. Only worse. . . *Moment of introspection*. . . *Shudder*.

Shanti.

Might have been Sharon, but there's a senile old lady two doors down by that name, so no.

Well, you can get a trilogy discount, can't you? Nalyd forgets. Check the price page.

Yes, that theory is wrong. Plain and simple. Monarch is the GF1 PC. Greta and Alwan display no emotion over Monarch other that "He's crazy, kill him." The third Shaper from GF3 probably died after falling in love with Greta.

And Nalyd can be as mistaken as he wants, thank you.

Yes, well, you have fun with Greta, Silver. At any rate, Monarch is the PC from Geneforge 1. He fits the "I used the Geneforge and destroyed it" ending perfectly. He also has an abundance of control batons, which were in abundance on Sucia island, and he most likely learned how to make them. He was also quite obviously self-shaped, from the Geneforge or the canisters, and the canisters were just left lying around on Sucia, while the Geneforge there was the only one that deserves the title.

And, just so you know, The Doctor had the idea first!

No. Period, no. The Doctor would say why, but an angry dad is coming his way.

And, they would have been fine if they wren't inherently violent and terraforming the land carelessly. If Barzahl hadn't smuggled canisters off of Sucia, then he wouldn't have gone insane, he wouldn't have broken away from the Shapers, the Takers wouldn't have broken away from him, the Drakons would have remained drayks, and nothing would have happened! So you can blame him, or Zakary at least, for not taking appropriate action. That's where your precious Rebellion has it's roots: a recklessly power-hungry egomaniac. Worse yet, Tully likes him.

What is stopping them from simply living under Shaper rule? Apparently, it isn't overly oppressive to the average citizen, other than reduced prices for Shapers. The only thing worth complaining about is the restriction of magic.

As for the creations, there's plenty of unexplored terrain, especially on Terrestria. You can always pick an area to defend, provided that it's far away enough from any towns.

And how do you think the world might become entirely Rebellion? Diplomacy? Drakons? Not gonna happen.

The Trakovites were the Sholai for G4. They weren't actually Sholai, but they were mistakenly named after one.

Um, it's on the first or second page of this thread. You'll have to copy, paste, and splice it into the game files, though.

Yes, it was probably a cruel joke on the part of Jeff. If anyone changes the graphic, can they post it here?

Nope. Won't happen. The most you would get would be strange looks and bad vibes. Besides, your all new noobs, other than Milla.

But, on a less disparaging note, this has been a frustration to Spiderwebbers for a long time. Jeff has decided against it, probably because it would be an unfair restriction if you joined the Shapers.

Well, in this one, you might have indirectly controlled guard creations, periodic attacks, actual defense measures, etc.

It won't happen. Wait for Blades of Geneforge: an RTS. And, no, that won't happen either.

The ideal setup would be: Intelligent creations such as the Drakons, Drayks, Gazers, etc. having equal rights if they wish it. They still must live semi-subservient to the Shapers, and nobody will hesitate to destroy them at the first sign of hostility. They will live in a specially formed territory, and allowed to die out.

Shaping should be volunteer only. All who wish to join, can, but they undergo rigorous psychological and physical tests to be admitted. Serviles who are not Shaped are allowed to join the other independent creations in their pseudo-freedom. All creations deemed by the Shaper Council to be safe continue to be created, but Serviles are shaped only with complete obedience.

The Trakovites are exterminated. Naturally.

Mind you, this is simply the arrangement that would appear to be the best accepted by all sides, without undue bloodshed. It is not the best or most secure.

Probably because the arms are always held straight out, T-Rex style.

Demonslayer isn't the best sword in the game. It's really only sub-par, even when used against demons.

And type with some semblance of literacy.

Um, Rentar-Ihrno is FEMALE. And if you read the description, you would see that Erika was winning. Erika was just caught by surprise by the boulders falling from he ceiling.

Yeah, the short-shorts under the robe do tend to detract from. . . Well, everything.

Maybe she developed a sort of "Aura of Darkness" spell for emergencies.

Awful, Small Fry. You are the ultimate embodiment of the Anti-Spidweb.

They aren't earned, in the sense that you did not learn them. Instead, you took an extremely expensive shortcut. The expense going into canisters far outweighs the benefits, which are the same as learning the spell, with some ego, addiction, and anger thrown in. Kind of like steroids.

Plus, you can never rule out the possibility of some random ignoramus stumbling over a canister and learning, oh, say. . . Charm.

The Shapers reject canisters because, first of all, they have adverse psychological effects, and second of all, they are not earned. With canisters, anyone, anyone, can gain any power. A six year old could cast Acid Rain, or create a Kyshakk. Worse yet, a complete outsider, unaware of any kind of Shaping could use one by accident, and the power could unleash itself randomly, simply because the user lack the control or discipline to control it.
