Well, his actual name is Mr. C, but he's good-humored and finds the name Hobomancer funny, so he uses it himself.

Also, I like Quint's description of Diligitis as "chill." I think it's a fitting description.

Chaotic good strikes me as anything but "chill." More like, "aggressively friendly."

"Chaotic" in the alignment chart doesn't refer to erratic behavior or aggressive behavior. It's the opposite of Lawful, meaning the character is chaotic due to their disregard for the rules.

In other words, he's chaotic because he's unpredictable, and he's unpredictable because he is willing to ignore any rule he has to in order to help mortals. He'll do things he's not supposed to do, not do things he's supposed to do, and generally behaves in ways that aren't expected for a character of his status.

given the alignment chart is solely about how a character views morality, and nothing to do with how active or laid back they are, that argument could be applied to all nine spots.

a CE character can appear to be affable and calm in their day to day life, and still be a sadistic _______ with no regard for the law. they don't necessarily need to be running around in a hockey mask or a knife-glove. alignments don't have tells.

Note: in my post just now, he is telling the truth, but it isn't that great according to the standards of his planet, a double major master's degree in that planet usually takes just one month.

Is that because of lower standards, a more efficient school system, or high intelligence? If it's the first two, that's fine. If it's the last one, hid intelligence stat should be considerably higher. Like, a 9 or 10.

even trimming out all extraneous courses, a school system that efficient would only work if the need for memorization and study were removed entirely. either the entire population have eidetic memories, some kind of augmentation that bypasses the normal learning process, or training in mnemonics.

Unless one month on that planet is the equivalent of 2 years on Earth.

That does seem a bit ridiculous though. A single major master's degree takes a minimum of 2 years on Earth. So I can't see anyone doing even a single major in 2 months, let alone a double. It's up to Cyber what he wants to allow though.

whether or not it's even possible aside, it's certainly not a believable claim to some of the characters. hence squidslap.

I'm going to say that high efficiency isn't enough of a reason for it to have taken only two months. Two Earth years, minimum.

the problem here is his implication that the character is actually slow by their standards. therefore what was done to him in the lab can't be the explanation, because the average would still be behind him not ahead of him if that was the case.

yeah, that world having an extended orbital period is seeming a more and more more plausible explanation for the time difference.

So while we’re waiting for whoever Cyber is waiting for, how about I ask you all another question about your characters. What are they afraid of? This doesn’t necessarily have to be a serious, legitimate fear, it can just be something they saw in a movie or just a stupid phobia.
Kolt is afraid of losing another loved one.
Lewis is afraid of other people thinking he’s crazy with no way for him to prove otherwise
Liz is afraid that if Fortis gave her the offer to join him again, and Lewis and Corp were out of the picture, she might say yes.
Quint is afraid of dying, especially since nobody has any idea what his lifespan is like. He could be dying of old age right now and have no idea.

Aren't we all slowly dying of age anyway?

Anyway, I suppose you could say I was waiting on Neon, but I'm not sure if Neon has anything to post. I was going to get writing today, but a tornado hit within 5 miles of the house and we had to take shelter. Didn't get to my computer until just a few minutes ago.

As for fears, honestly I'm not sure. Obviously Hivemind used to be afraid his power would corrupt him, but he's thoroughly obliterated that fear by thoroughly obliterating any corrupt thoughts.

Randy is afraid of loosing Morgan or Eira. Morgan and Eira have similar fears. This isn't a huge fear though. Randy knows Morgan and Eira are one-woman-armies, and Morgan and Eira know Randy is more than capable of handling any threat he's faced with.

Gear is phagophobic. He's deathly afraid of the possibility of being eaten. Considering he became a cyborg after being bitten in half, it's a pretty reasonable fear.

True, but the thing about Quint is that he’s a one of a kind experimental life form that was supposed to be alive for a day or two at most before permanently fusing to someone’s brain. No one has any idea what being like this for so long could be doing to him, and to him that’s kinda scary.

Yeah, don't have much to respond to unless I missed something, which is possible,

As for fears I think Tatiana only has one. Sure she's a bit wary of electricity or freezing, but she only actively fears her past, or rather what her past could be. Since she woke up in a lab on a meteor with nothing else alive in any direction she's left to wonder about the truth and it rarely leaves her feeling optimistic about what it could be. Doesn't stop her from going back to the lab every once in awhile to ponder though.

As for my characters:

Rika is seriously afraid of snakes (Ophidiophobia or Ophiophobia), anyone who was here for the first mission should already know this.

Traci has a moderate fear of heights (Acrophobia), as was mentioned in my latest post.

Dan fears losing Keeva or his mind in this crazy new universe, it's likely the latter would certainly happen if the former did..

Main fears.

Jenny - being helpless

Jaken - has already suffered it and can't again (unless something happens to Rika).

Corp - Usually ignores Fear but, now he's become Empathic, that'll probably change. Has a deal of concern for Liz and Lewis.

Hannabelle. If anyone harms her grandcubs they'll know her fear turns to anger.

Sana - One day Hive will prove he's a better hacker than her...

Keeva - She'll forget her dad.

Cailean and Conall's biggest fear at the moment is obviously losing each other. They're all they have left now, other than Sarah.

Other than that... Conall HATES needles. It's a good thing he was only half-conscious and lying down when Colorado took his blood sample on the Steelhaven.

Cailean, on the other paw, is terrified of dolls. Pediophobia is the proper term. Whether the faces are felt or fine china he finds them unbelievably creepy and unsettling and won't go near them. He can't take his eyes off them either, just in case.

being less than a week old june hasn't had enough time to develop any significant phobias, and in general doesn't know how to process fear properly.

Kobor's issues with isolation don't really need to be explained given they've already come up.
likewise the fact that hivemind can overcome her mental defenses so easily terrifies talya is also already known.

I don't think i ever gave Kol any.

also can someone get autocomplete to stop trying to change Kol into Col.? She's not a Colonel!

Time for another round of “I’m bored and want to ask you guys some questions about your characters.” This time it’s a light bit more morbid; if you had to kill off one of your characters, which one would it be, and how would you do it? For me, the answer is obvious. I’d kill off Kolt, since he’s the only one I kinda wanna write a death scene for, and I’d have him die in a fight where it doesn’t matter how strong he is, he just slowly gets worn down until he’s too exhausted to fight back. Probably have him fight off a seeming endless army of goons that slowly wear him down, or have him continuously throwing himself at a villain miles out of his league in order to buy time for reinforcements to arrive, or force him to fight a bunch of powerful villains back to back, because they’re this close to accomplishing their evil scheme and he’s the only person one who’s close enough to stop them (bonus points if you get what that would be an homage to). I’d probably also have him occasionally flashback to all the good times he’s had with the team as he’s dying, while Price of Freedom plays in the background.
Also, on an unrelated note, I wish there was art of Jenny so I could commission someone to draw her and Kolt being lovebirds together.

Getting stranded in a system housing a black hole wasn't an accident. And getting out won't happen twice. Kobor had been ID'd as a possible carrier of a dormant S class gift. getting rid of one of the four permanently is too good an opportunity to pass up, they try again before finding out about June.
