If you like this board I highly recommend visiting tg for all sorts of traditional gaming pleasure, qu for the best quests on any *chan, storytiem for 3lewd5me sexual adventures. There is also twgrl for the Towergirls CYOA alone.

The management would like to request the brown pill spammer to stop.

Posting this as a sort of part 2 to the Power Armor CYOA, but it also works as stand alone. Monsters!

This guy will be the foil to the power armor I built in the other thread. Let's call him "Hornet."

His build is ULTRA LIGHT.

His caste is SCOUT. 200 mass left.

First priority is on obtaining VENOM MIST. This can be laid down in order to defend against melee attacks. Head-mounted. 190 mass left.

Oh, whoops, I have to have venom for that to work. VENOM GLAND for 5 mass. Upgrade it with DEADLY for a total of 25 mass. 165 mass left.

I need a BIO-PLASMA GENERATOR now. 145 mass left.

I'll also upgrade it with a PLASMA BLADDER. 140 mass left.

Now, I have FLIGHT for free, so I'll just upgrade it with PLASMA BOOST. 130 mass left. Hornet can probably react to the armor now, if not keep up with it.

As for defenses, I'm taking CHITIN UPGRADES 1-3 for a total of 40 points. 100 mass left.

To further fuck with the power armor, let's copy its mines. PLASMA BOMB with all upgrades comes to 40 mass, so 50 mass left.

All those 50 points will get spent on 2 pairs of EXTRA LEGS and upgrading all 3 with EXTRA POWER. Speed has been increased by 60%. My boosted speed is now 400 mph, which is actually enough to keep up with the power armor. Sweet.

This brings us to the battle of the century - the fire-slinging ultrafast FIREFLY power armor versus the venom-spewing ultrafast HORNET bioform.

Let's use Washington DC as the setting for the battle.

This comes down to a pulse-pounding dogfight above and around the Washington Monument. HORNET is flying high, while FIREFLY is flying low and occasionally dropping to the ground in order to maximize speed. The power armor is using its flamethrower to clear venom clouds, and frantically dodging plasma bombs. Turns out these fuckers are hot enough to actually bypass the FIREFLY's crazy environmental shielding. HORNET's weakness, however, is evident here - the venom clouds it lays out obscure its line of sight, so it can't precisely target FIREFLY.

The bioform pauses for a moment, hovering just above the peak of the monument, when suddenly a burst of light comes from the greenish cloud at ground level. From the mist hurtles FIREFLY, skating up the monument at a speed that HORNET just can't match. Epic music plays as it pulls out its buster blade in slow motion and bisects HORNET in a spray of plasma and polychromatic blood. Unfortunately, of course, plasma hurts. FIREFLY drops hard and staggers away into the night, to fight another day.

I'd say can the armor upgrades in exchange for X-Ray vision, Progenitor Worm/Extra head (to help aim while flying), and some minor perk. Also especially with the second head the two separate triggers on bombs is redundant so removing proximity trigger nets us another 5 points, combined with the possibility you missed the complimentary Plasma Bladder with the generator gets us another 5, so that can get you Poison Globs assuming you went with a second head, from there I'd get compactible for reducing target size.
Also basic ultra light scout boosted fly speed speed ranges from 550 (by 500% being interpreted as multiplying by 5 and scout solely doing base speed and additive multipliers) mph to 900 (by 500% meaning adding 500% of that number and multipliers stacking exponentially) mph depending upon how you read it. So from that we get 60 biomass removed from useless legs (they don't affect your absurd fly speed anyway, just sprinting on land). Honestly from there the build's wide open and anything I put would be more an original build than improvements on yours.

TLDR you spent over half your biomass on utterly useless shit. The battle between your Firefly and an actually decent build from here is an execution not a fight.

Oooh! this is actually really cool. It appeals to my power fantasy of hunting hipsters in new york as some sort of hyper sexual tentacle space demon only to be killed by a black seventies action movie hero.

 No.332

Well, I tried to build something human size that could actually hide, so that left me with small, hunter, and any extra limbs had to be retractable going down the list I ended up with this:

Light - 225-10=215
Hunter - 215-25=190
Thermal Vision - 190-10=180
Brain Upgrade 1 - 180-5=175
Retractable Tentacles x2 - 175-20=155
Progenitor Worm - 155-20=135 (Staying alive is good)
Venom+Deadly - 135-25=110
Exoblades+sting (on tentacle) - 110-15=95
Chitinous Dart+sting (on tentacle) - 95-15=80
Flight - 80-20=60
Regeneration - 60-15-10=35 (I repeat stating alive is good)

A second run through since I had some points left over:
Brain Upgrade 2 - 35-10=25 (More brains never hurts)
Telepathy - 25-10=15
X-ray Vision - 15-15=0 (Can track down other hiding bios)

Find some controller group, a moderate one preferrably. That isn't all about destroying humanity.

All sensing superscout. I will travel at great speed on all surfaces, in the sky, and in the water. For food I will just eat scraps cause I dont requir much and can sense anything. In order to not get killed by other bios I will use my amazing speed, camouflage, sense of smell, and ability to provide services such as deciphering messages and scouting.

Name: Sentinel

Primarily and ambush predator due to a lack of long range weaponry. Flight and camouflage will make it very easy to hunt when I’m up close they’ll be nothing they can do. I’ll try and find other bios that aren’t slobbering monsters and try and carve out a life somewhere where we won’t be hunted.
