Looks like I lose. But I never staked anything, so HAH. -

Same here, sounds interesting. -

A village healer or the like with access to healing magic could save dozens of lives, and so on. And using only one or two canisters doesn't actually seem to alter one's personality much, as evinced by the fact that PCs in the Geneforge series can use around a half dozen over the course of 3-12 months or so, and not encounter any changes in dialogue or endings.
They would have to be strictly regulated, of course, and even then there would probably be a black market. Then again, short of a whole lot of execution and book burning, there would probably be a black market in them regardless of their legality.
Not just canisters, the whole Shaping discipline. Is Geneforge an allegory, do you think? -

Food coloring. -
I think the overall trend says "Ghaldring" so he can go on the list. everyone else is only a villain either briefly or incompletely.

I'm afraid alternate universe reincarnation was not an option when the master of Avadon clearly likes Risk and Mr. Vogel probably does not. -
Ghaldring, then. I'm composing a list of legendary status villains. He qualifies.

Well, it was brought up...so I took it upon myself to come out and ask it straight. Much as people may laugh (

How about shades of red? For the blood which the games so nicely lack?
Unfortunately, I haven't played Avernum.

True enough. So the bad guy is simply "disagreement"? Is that what you're saying? That's probably true. But some of the characters do things that are outrageous in any light, while others do what could be construed as, if not the right thing, then at least "what they had to do"

Your Same Page Tool Is A Bit Odd, But Then So Is This Post. I Found It To Be Conceivably Helpful, But It Is More Trouble Than It Is Worth.

And piecing together fragmented (literally and virtually) hard drives.

An overriding "bad guy" to the Geneforge series? If so, who? If not, why not?

There will be a museum dedicated to the more primitive techniques used in archaeology.
Oh. And again:
I am sure there will be new "archaeology" departments dedicated to breaking PGP's old encryption so that they can read old presidents' virtual journals. -

Absolutely not just you. It's just us.

Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah!
If only I could afford it...

Hmph. It can be done!

These are some truly epic posts. Wow. Aside from that, my only suggestion was to "incrementalize" your numbers, i.e., multiply everything by five or ten. Then damage becomes more interesting because it's harder to be killed by a margin of 1, which is always SO frustrating.

Did we all forget Tales of the Unknown?

Just FYI.
That will make me first of my kind. A thorough Game Archaeologist for Geneforge. Any other Game Archaeologists here? (Official, please) -
Interesting. So certain creations would only be available with class feats?

THAT is a very good idea.

You forget it might be a pylon, so don't wait for it to move.
Most unfortunately, I am a diplomat, so I missed out on 50% of the Geneforge combat.
