Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
Oh, dear.
That's going to cause all sorts of problems.
It's a little late, but I'd really like to know if the smaller time monster is a serious threat to everyone's survival.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
Uh, huh. I'm inclined to thinking this is bad.

and a new//old player enters the game
Ponies not only make ME want to be a better person than I was before they entered my life, they make me want to HELP OTHERS be better people too.
And that is a GOOD thing by any definition.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
RE the concerns this is bad: It may be. But the doc has gone through quite a lot since the bad old days, and if he retains those memories, he may turn out to be different person than before.
Although his grudge against the Baron should be spectacular.

Did he just casually did what these bufoons have been trying to achieve for decades?

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
Oh dear, indeed.
This guy was a Spark dangerous enough to cause trouble for both Wulfenbach AND Albia.
I do have to ask where exactly did this time monster come from in the first place? And what is it doing here at this moment?

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
Do note that "Time Shenanigans" are not innately permanent. We may see Vapnoodle at his Sparkiest, only to end up with a more balanced version in the end as the effect largely wears off. Or the rebirth of a major power player smart and subtle enough to build his scariest creations under the radar even before he was defeated.
Kinda hope he remains an ally however this turns out, but I'm interested in any event.Last edited by Calemyr; 2019-04-17 at 09:53 AM.

Ah, Sparks. High enough intelligence to mimic magic, with wisdom as their dump stat.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
I'm still of the opinion that Sparks aren't innately low-Wisdom, but that the Madness Place applies a massive penalty to any sort of Wisdom-related roll other than Will saves. Agatha can be pretty perceptive, and Othar varies wildly from inhumanly insightful to completely oblivious depending on the circumstances.

And of course he won’t have targeted any of the heroes.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
What’s interesting is that he didn’t have the time to do any science with his second breakthrough, he shoots lightning even though he didn’t modify himself to shoot lightning. Meaning that second breathroughs give you bons fide magic powers.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
So, is this the same sort of breakthrough that Agatha experienced and discussed with Albia, where he'll explode in a few seconds if he isn't careful, or something else entirely?

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
We did already see something similar with Agatha when she drank the water of the Dyne. She had levitation, telekinesis, and from how I've always read those panels most of the energy that melted the medical apparatus and caused the big boom came directly from Agatha.
Firing lightning bolts seems to be par for the course, really.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
He already has lightning shooting rods in his hands. He might as well made tiny but incredible effective modifications that werent noticed by anyone including the reader.
The Baron already explained this to his son, the science from Albia (so from the second breakthrough) is so advanced that it looks like magic, but it isnt.
