    Orthanc and Barad-Dur. You've stepped onto my home field. Congrats. You found my area of specialization. Oops. You stepped on a land mine. Now prepare to die.
  2. I can prove it, if you give me a month to compile a convincing argument. In the meantime, let it be said that stasis inducing compounds either function only at a subatomic level (that's this one) or you have to be fully immersed in it. Maybe the fluid has a strong surface tension that keeps it away from contact with the Shaper's gut.

  3. I like to be concise. So.

     

    One. Essence is a stabilizing compound which keeps things in suspended animation.

     

    Two. Floating in the goo, there are carbon isotopes of extremely high density. (Atomic wt. approx. 130)

     

    Three. These atoms would decay instantly except for the stabilizing goo.

     

    Four. When the compound is activated, by a change in temperature resulting in being brought outside the human body, the chemical composition of the essence changes, leaving the carbon isotopes free to decay.

     

    Five. A neutron is composed of one up quark and two down quarks.

     

    Six. Two neutrons, with enough energy, could be rearranged into one electron, with three down quarks, and one proton, with two up quarks and one down quark.

     

    Seven. This reaction, being sub-atomic, requires a great deal of energy.

     

    Eight. Said reaction could be fueled by the chemical reaction in the sustaining goo.

     

    Nine. Through this process, the heavy carbon can be transmuted into whatever compounds are necessary to create life, drawing oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen from the air. This probably is the source of the ozone smell.
