00:42:50 Devastator: Sorry
RC missed you.
00:51:25 Piecewise_: good to be seen I suppose
00:54:25 Devastator: Also figured out the best idea for a mind trap in Cabal.
00:55:12 Devastator: temp d12 Ape. Summon an incredibly strong ape spirit to be a bouncer. Guy opens a connection, ape spirit goes in, punches him in mental face.
00:55:40 Devastator: Puncing people in the face in mental combat is the best.
00:58:28 Devastator: hell, might even be rolling a d20 of it's own with strengthen ape.
01:17:29 Devastator: still, probably be worth a turn of not controlling someone because busy punching ape.
02:21:55 Piecewise_: use that one at a bar
03:05:19 Devastator: can't do it without getting more mana, and scraped up all I have for this time, unless we convert the gyrotourbillion.
03:09:12 Devastator: I'll just talk it over with
syv, and go convert it.
03:09:42 Devastator: and you're being quiet because we have no way of knowing that info.
03:13:21 Devastator: (Damn you and good GMing habits.)

07:03:27 Devastator: I think we have to convert that gyrotoubillion to find out what it's worth..
PW isn't answering the question because it's something we'd have no way of knowing.
07:04:05 syv: Yup. TBH, the thing is only really worth either money or mana, the actual mechanism is largely a useless novelty.
07:04:31 Devastator: Well, unless we wanted to animate a machine gun and make a self-adjusting mount.
07:05:13 syv: If you think mana payout goes up with the quality of craftsmanship, then it should pay out quite a bit of mana, and I completely agree with melting it down.
07:05:36 Devastator: It goes up with value and rarity cost, and this thing looks like an expensive rarity.
07:05:43 Devastator: so probably worth a good chunk of mana.
07:06:00 Devastator: I just don't know if that means 15 mana or like 80.
07:06:25 Devastator: Probably worth at least 20, really.
07:06:57 syv: Nah, making a self-adjusting mount would be simpler just making some swivels and such, and then animating them. The gyrotourbillon has related parts, but isn't really a weapon mount, at all. I think it would have to be massively stripped apart and rebuilt to do that effectively, assuming it's large enough in the first place.
07:07:17 syv: I'm willing to bet on it being valuable!
07:07:46 Devastator: We can do the RP related to that if you want to do it today.
07:08:00 Devastator: lets get it done, I want to stick to the 3 turn schedule.
07:08:02 syv: What skill is drawing, in Cabal?
07:08:45 syv: Ekrov would love the complexity of thing, and at least would want to copy down the design before destroying it. Seems reasonable, we have days IC.
07:09:16 Devastator: I'd also guess that converting this thing will take longer than the usual half-hour or so.
07:09:42 Devastator: 50-50 split should be good.
07:11:21 syv: I wonder if "Animate" could be used to make a targeting HUD for the guns.
07:11:35 syv: Ahhh, lots of stuff that could be done...
07:12:19 Devastator: Maybe. Sounds a bit tricky, but should be possible.
07:12:29 Devastator: Could make a magic scope with View and a conventional one.
07:12:33 Devastator: then maybe you could animate that.
07:36:03 Devastator: Also, I can make things smaller/larger.. probably have to make it smaller, really. I think it's huge given that it was in the middle of a whole airship.
07:36:44 syv: I hope enchanting it isn't necessary to melt it down, spending mana to let us gain mana seems non-ideal.
07:39:42 Devastator: Nah, don't think so.
07:39:56 Devastator: but we could scale it if we wanted to use it.
07:41:26 syv: Making a giant gyrotourbillion would be completely pointless, I think. It's a device that aids the accuracy of timekeeping, nothing more. Might work better if it's bigger, I guess. Certainly be easier to make. But its actual purpose wouldn't be improved.
07:51:39 Devastator: I doubt it's tiny, though.
07:51:43 Devastator: wouldn't have found it if so.
07:56:27 Devastator: I don't know what they used it for, but probably holding something steady despite orientation changes.
07:56:32 Devastator: so maybe nav tools?
08:01:50 syv: Reading about gyrocompasses now, and no, this is a very different thing.
08:02:00 syv: I should probably not read about these, and just return to writing.
08:02:10 Devastator: but you can't write without a huge load of random crap.
08:02:15 Devastator: it's what makes writing good!
08:02:36 Devastator is still waiting for book 3.

13:53:24 er: Spent most of last week away from home, one night of which I had a minor headache, and then maybe 8 hours after getting back I catch something horrible.
13:54:33 er: Dunno what this is or how I got it, maybe from being around people.
13:54:57 er: Humans are gross, disease riddled things after all.
