I'm thinking Luke, with city states built around geothermal spots. the geothermal spots where used first for metallurgy and then for power-stations and civs naturally formed around these impotent sites.

I was also thinking of having a space elevator seeing as you can build one with Kevlar if you go to worlds even slightly smaller than earth. Luke is so small and low g they probably don't even need to be that tall, it lets them stick to the whole geothermal power theme by running power from them up the cables.

Also because space elevators are cool and they should be in more Sci-Fi

only a start obviously


also octopuses in spacesuits



Well she supposed that was a somewhat reasonable reason to call Yggdrasil a freak, though it was still rather rude in her opinion. Still, his information was certainly interesting, though she wasn’t entirely familiar with all of the concepts. While she could sit here all day asking follow up questions she decided against badgering the mage for any more information. Plenty of time to find out what control domains and the like where in future.

As for the info that they were not the only ones who had that foreign inforamtion thing, well, that wasn’t that surprising. There was a whole brood of them with that same status, the odds of them being the only ones like that seemed slim. She took his advice of not getting full of herself or going to his father's tower to hart and then turned to Sabu.

”So what’s next on the tour?"



It was while Rita was pondering how to get money for her card that the strangest thing arrived. Rita had seen horses before, she had seen humans, she had never seen this odd combination of the two. Was it a half breed or some mad mages creation. She was not sure why either creation method would occur. How would the former even work.

Rita was thankfully pulled out of her train of thought by the horse lady pulling out a bag and offering money for people to get adventurer cards. It was like they the universe was taunting her with easy solutions to problems then adding massive roadblocks in the way. Maybe she could disguise herself as a short human by stealing bed sheets and making a robe?

Wait. Where did the bush go?

It was at this point Rita’s conscious mind caught up with the fact that she was making a beeline for the bag. She hadn’t quite got the hang of this whole thinking about things before she acted deal yet. As a result the hyper aggressive bit of her goblin mind had seen a thing she wanted and had got her body to charge it without consulting the more logical part that was taking advantage of the ring’s stat boost.

The wee goblin committed to her course of action, her cover now blown anyway and increased her scampering pase. She crossing the space between her hiding spot and the horse lady in 3 seconds, dodging through the legs of the Big’uns as she went before leaping up past the bag, plunging a tiny hand inside and grabbing as many coins as she could manage.

If the jumping were viewed in slow motion it would be seen that the goblin approached from the side of Yuji, then leaped in a flip so that she passed by the woman's field of view upside down, a toothy reckless grin on her face, as she plunged her hand down into the bag and withdrew some coins before landing nimbly on her feet.

”Thankyouverymuchgoobye!”

She shouted as she flew through the air. Then, carrying her momentum from the run-up and leap, she attempted a get away, sprinting for the closest embankment that lead to the lake, intending to lose any of her armored pursuers in the lake's waters or the surrounding foliage. She had shoved the random coins into the waterproof satchel and was running on all fours again, clawed hands and feet digging into the ground as she fled.

”I’ll pay you back later!”

If unhindered she would cannonball into the lakes shimmering waters and make for the closest heavily foliage area along the shore.
@Arawak
Alien I think.
Possibly some kind of aquatic race on Luke or Gabriel.

just FYI I'll be posting either after @FrozenEcstasy or on Monday. Looking forwards to seeing the loot system in action.


She was glad neither of them resented having to help in the slightest, how fortunate she was that both of the ones who had pole mounted weaponry were also such gentlemen. She could think of a few of the others who might have been much less gracious. She headed out of the medical lab with hase before someone came to bother Tzi about baring his chest in the hospital being unsanitary and/or distracting.

She briefly stopped by the closest kitchen for something to fill her belly with and ended up going with some porridge. Warm and filing if a little bland. Then she made her way to the common room which was surprisingly empty.

“Huh. I wonder where everyone is?”

She briefly poked her head into the dorm, giving Natus a wave. She was confused as to what he was doing but left him too it. She didn’t want her speaking with him to wake Esther.

“Two in there. Not sure about anyone else.”

She settled down by the fire anyway, drying her outside with the comforting flame and her insides with the food.

“If you want to join me I’d appreciate the company, but I imagine you might have things to do or maybe just want some rest like those two”

She indicates to the dorm with its sleeping and writing occupants.
Taric

level: 1
day/time: day 2 - morning
Location: Platform City - The Barrel Roll
Interacting with: [@RokkuHoshi] Steve, @Crosswire Jack and Shadow, @Guardian Angel Haruki Shantae
Cooldowns
Bastion: 2/2. linked ally: none


Jacks rapid drinking and eating where, in a word, impressive. The man knew how to hold his liquor, of that there was no doubt. On the other hand Taric wasn’t entirely sure what had brought on the sudden urgency or need to drown himself in alcohol that rapidly. Was it the fact that the young woman was a genie perhaps? He had to admit that was rather surprising, and just a touch worrying seeing as Genies were supposedly beings of great power sealed in bottles. At least that was what they were in the stories he had read. Generally you don’t seal thing away unless they are very dangerous. Of course those stories could be wrong or only vaguely apply to Shantae.

”Goodness me, genie magic? That sounds powerful.”

The other option was that it was in reaction to Steve's general ignorance of seemingly random concepts. Like couches. He wondered how Steve's world of architects could contain beds but not couches. It was quite peculiar. At any rate if Jack was ready to go then he wouldn’t waste his time by dawdling and so hurried to finish his own breakfast before carefully wiping his lips clean with a napkin. Taric lifted Bravado from where it sat on the floor and then stood, rested the mace against his shoulder.

”That would be of great help Jack. Lead on”

With his free hand the fabulous defender retrieved a small tin of breath mints and popped one in his mouth before offering the others one as well.

”oh and would any of you like a mint?”
Howlite


Looked like apart from Chromite the others were busy doing their own thing and as a result it was slow going. They got perilously close to losing the drill and spiders to the sinking muck but in the end the mission’s primary piece of equipment was saved and dragged to a more stable part of the swamp. After everyone got outside Howlite sealed all the doors to the ship to prevent more water going in, but the vessel was still buried pretty deep in the muck and the hull had enough reaches that the ship continued to sink slowly.

Howlite took this opportunity to examine the place they had crashed in. The ship itself was in a large muddy crater that was rapidly refilling with water. The rest of the area consisted of pools of water, floating greenery or actual land with plants growing on it. The problem was it was very difficult to tell those last 2 bits apart. Beyond the marshland was a hilline featuring much larger plants of some kind and even further in the distance was the light and smoke coming from what was apparently a human settlement of some kind.



Now that the drill was clear of the sinking ship Howlite tooks some time and properly rigged it up to the two spider drones with an improvised harness, meaning they would not need gems to carry it anymore.

”so where is this dry spot you mentioned?”
