    [Discussion] You Are a Rock

    SPOILERS for latest chapter below ----------------------------------------------------- Well damn, what a chapter! We were fairly close with the mind control angle, except that rather than directly recruit people, we take over their bodies instead. Negrek was absolutely spot on with the clutch...

    [Discussion] You Are a Rock

    That sounds fine with me, Claim it is! If it makes you feel any better, I think we could make a good case here for acting in self-defense, since Weavile did just try to straight up murder both us and Lenora after all :unquag: And 100%, if it turns out to be crossing a line we don't want to, we...

    [Discussion] You Are a Rock

    TIL that "enervate" is a word, first time seeing it! "To reduce the mental or moral vigor of, to lessen the vitality or strength of". As is usual, I'm sure I'm about to see it all over the place in the next few days! For the actual ability, it looks to be quite a useful one! :eyes: pays for its...

    [Discussion] You Are a Rock

    Yeah, I've been wondering about that too since the blank expressions they had earlier, and that mysterious 4th Pokemon to also point signs to a mind controller fleeing. Something definitely seems off with how they act and coordinate together. Then again, if mind control or possession was...

    Oh sweet, we do have a new character, nice! Human shaped with prominent claws huh... As Negrek mentioned, lots of potential candidates for that one. Watch it be an Igglybuff on dinosaur stilts or something :mewlulz:

    [Discussion] You Are a Rock

    So after thinking about it and re-reading, I decided to try a riskier approach and bluff as though we have some position of rank over the Prism Knights. Although they keep trying to threaten and coerce us, they seem to know us fairly well, and they've also been strangely respectful in some...

    [Discussion] You Are a Rock

    Yeah, this is definitely a bit of a tough spot we're in :unquag: depending on whether they follow through on their threat here, this might be the first time we're making a choice that directly results in a major consequence to the plot line. Looking at our options, this might be getting too...

    Sorry if I forced it too early... I thought it might be helpful to have a name to refer to our character. I personally quite like Cobble; not only is it nice to say and a rock pun (for cobblestone), but also has another pun in cobbling things together.

    Oh, awesome! So then explicit Rejections seem like they're pretty much only required when we need to quickly change course and remove a Consideration that's above 1. That's good to know!

    [Discussion] You Are a Rock

    I have a small question about the mechanics around Considerations and Rejections. Let's say we've got two Considerations in effect, like this: - (!) I need to retrieve the crystal! - (1) I need to hide! If I make a Rejection for "I need to retrieve the crystal!", and a new Consideration for...

    Put my vote in - this is my first time doing a CYOA on TR, so please let me know if I'm doing anything incorrectly ^^; Thinking about our avatar's background story and whether we were once someone else and got turned into a rock, or perhaps we've always been a rock and were enchanted to life...

    [Discussion] You Are a Rock

    Sentences I didn't think would apply to me last year: "Votes on the actions of a sentient rock" :mewlulz: From what's described here though, count me in! This looks fun and low stakes, and I'm very curious to see what you do with the concept :eyes:
