IDE/Theory Thread 25: The Red Supergiant is the Forge

[Patchman]

While the gases are chemically similar, they all have their quirks and flanderizations.

Helium is floaty and balloons
Neon is glowy and sleek
Krypton is very bright. PLUS, Kypton roughly means "the hidden one," just like the Void Aspect.
Xenon is the least interesting. It's heavy and does things to yo' brain. Also, it makes your voice sound hilariously low-sounding.

"Xenon is non-toxic, although it does dissolve in blood and belongs to a select group of substances that penetrate the blood–brain barrier, causing mild to full surgical anesthesia when inhaled in high concentrations with oxygen." I just felt that was worth mentioning, given Jake's "brain damage."

Leave it up to Hussie to come up with clever names. The point of the Xenon bit is that it goes with theme as well as completing the Bernie Lomax thing. Hilarious.

xeno means foreign. jake is english.

Oh, nice catch.

Also, yeah I knew about the LOMAX thing.

[brocoli]

LOPAN - Land of Props and Neon (*TH1S 1S STUP1D* - actually I have no idea... Pyramids, Puppets, Penis --NO PLEASE NO all seem viable (except the last one .-.) )
LOTAK - Land of Tunnels and Krypton (Equius had Caves. Tunnels have to do with Void :3)
LOMAX - Land of Moives and Xenon (same as Dirk... Mausoleums, Monsters, Masks, Mirrors, Motion, Mazes, Makers... all of them would be awesome)

Tose little makers. They can't resist a good xenon blow.

My updated attempt at creating a map using various image resources. Not very pretty, but I think it would help those who are lost as to where things are. I included Rose's FAQ server and Lord English's unhackable program's server as well. Sizes aren't to scale, some things were put in a general area such as the servers being in the Furthest Ring.

I don't know what to do with the P (the best bet is probably Pyramids), but the other two are definitely Land of Tombs and Krypton and Land of Mausoleums and Xenon. Any class thing that the B2 kids planets may have had previously was wiped out by the fact that the B1 kids decided to join in, turning the Heroes into Nobles. We know this from Myststuck; one of the tablets comments on the fact that the salamanders' legends changed. All four lands are now depopulated (except for Denizens), covered in puzzles and ruins, and named according to the following form: Land of [grave-type-thing] and [noble gas]. Note that Jane's land name has nothing to do with Dew, Glass, Melody, or Quartz. Though her Helium balloons do dispense water, helium itself does not relate to Dew.

e: also it's new thread time. Ace, do you want it? I'll start it in ten minutes if nobody else does.

This is not entirely confirmed. It may be Land of [opposite of aspect] and [noble gas]. The Noble of Life's land is a land of noble gases and death. The Noble of Heart's land may be a land of noble gases and impersonality, the Noble of Void's a land of noble gases and knowledge, the Noble of Hope's a land of noble gases and despair.

I could see that. Giving LOMAX to Jake (something I still don't fully support...), it could be Land of Mourning and Xenon under your formula. What would you do with the other two?

[spriteless]

IDE 1: The P in Dirk's land will be Princes. He will have to overcome being splintered again. Maybe?

IDE 2: All the alpha kids and beta kids will have similar abilities, but through different means.
Dirk can have multiple copies of himself through splitting, and Dave can through time shenanigans.
A control freak who plans for everything verses someone who can go back to fix everything.
Rose already copied void powers through going grimdark.
Seers make predictions, which void players can counter with perfect free will from meddling omniscience.
Lifey thing seems to have even less caveats than God Tier resurrections.
Page of Hope is the godmoddiest class by design iff you can unlock its potential, while Jade combined first guardian, sprite, and god tier powers, as well as gaining vague future dead dreamself memories.

LOMAX is Jake's land. It's the last that appeared.

I once proposed the following:

Land of Puppets and Neon for Dirk. Puppets being "fake" selves.
Land of Technology and Krypton for Roxy. Technology being the pinnacle of knowledge.
Land of Misery and Xenon for Jake. Misery being obvious.

[unbeliever536]

I could see that. And I get all the reasons why LOMAX is Jake's land, I'm just not happy about it because I prefer giving Xenon to Dirk because he's hard to understand. Krypton works for a comicbooks reference, and Neon... I've said it before, but it just kind of feels right to me for Roxy.


NEW THREAD EVERYONE!!!

[Altum]

So have we totally abandoned the theory that Jake's Land will have angels in it, as part of the Hopey thing?

Land of Messengers and Xenon.

[Druplesnubb]

I like to believe that the angels died with the consorts and are buried in the mausoleums with them.
