Styx Institute - Control Room
|
Oof, that was quick. They figured out how the system worked immediately.
Leona's probably the guy who always knows he's dreaming. Where's the fun in that?
Jamil's stress levels barely moved too...
How did these guys ever overblot? And Vil, for that matter? |
Technician B |
Lachesis System desynchronizing. Down to five percent... Four, three, two... Desync complete. |
|
Simulator cooldown complete. Transferring subjects to the recovery room. |
Technician A |
Testing sequence completed at 2245. |
|
GG. You can both go once the data's backed up. |
Technicians A and B |
Roger. |
|
All subjects have been moved to the recovery room.
They're fast asleep. |
|
Nice work, Ortho. |
|
You too, Idia. What do the results look like for Leona Kingscholar and Jamil Viper? |
|
They just finished processing. I'll throw them up on the monitor. |
|
Wow, their numbers are exceptional! |
|
Spoiled or not, Leona's still royalty. Totally makes sense he'd have top-notch magic instruction as a kid.
His casting speed's off the charts, and his magic pool is huge.
He also knows how to be efficient - he tailors his defense spells to match the potency of enemy attacks.
He hardly wastes any magic at all. Which means he barely accumulates excess blot. |
|
It's also worth noting that stress didn't have much effect on his accumulation levels. |
|
Hmm... I dunno if I can draw anything conclusive from that, though.
I already knew Leona was tough and could handle whatever danger comes at him...
But it's hard to measure how resilient he is when experiencing inner turmoil. |
|
I see what you mean. Because he typically exhibits great mental fortitude...
When he does experience intense emotions, it could cause a drastic spike in blot accumulation. |
|
Stat-wise, Leona would be a great tank, like Vil.
But he isn't suited to a leadership role, personality-wise.
None of their personalities are a perfect fit for their ideal class, actually.
Guess that's why they're in the SSR Epic Troublemakers, lawl. |
|
What about Jamil? What class do you think he'd be? |
|
Hmm... He could probably handle any job just fine, TBH.
But he tends to go for efficiency over speed, like Azul.
Looking at his background...
He had no magic tutoring before entering Night Raven College either.
He's constantly assessing his remaining reserves. It's like he's worried about going OOM. |
|
Ah. So he's the "calm and efficient, or maybe just stalling and using people as shields" archetype as well. |
|
Thing is, he's really quick and precise with defensive magic.
Maybe that's his specialty, since he guards Kalim? |
|
Then it sounds like he'd be suited to a melee DPS role that supports the tank, or a healer class. |
|
Yeah. One of those classes you think is for beginners, but turns out to be really technical and requires a big-brain player to do it right. |
|
Heh heh. This would be a fun game to level in, no matter who you played. |
|
Night Raven Quest, the RPG... Whee hee hee, that doesn't sound half bad. |
|
Ooh, I'd play that! You should totally make it, Idia! It could be open world, with seven countries to start... |
|
No way am I doing open world. The development costs would be ridiculous just for a joke game.
Maybe if it's a 64KB ROM cart. Maybe. |
|
Aww. But you could whip it up in no time. |
|
Sure, but it'd be a pain, so not gonna happen. |
|
Say, Idia. What if you invited the other housewardens to join you in that MMO you play with Muscle Red? |
|
What?! No, that'd be nuts. Where'd you get that idea? None of those guys are interested in gaming.
Besides, everyone who's had a run-in with Styx goes down the River Lethe. No exceptions.
And as you know, that system can erase us from anyone's memory and from any data. |
|
...... |
|
There's no point even thinking about making friends with people on the outside.
After all... Sooner or later, they wouldn't remember it happened. |
