Minotaurs Out-Of-Character Thread

@Golem2God . . .

Yeah, I'm thinking She is bat-shit crazy; forgot to precisate is NOT betrothed to ME but to another Man that She disparage caustically and continuously. . .!!

After all is an "Old Adage" that says "Do NOT Stick IT into the Crazy. . .!!" ; I fell for a little for Her tricks (after all it was SHE that came after Me, asking Contacts & Cell.) but NOW I don't care anymore what Her motivations were. . .

Had YET too much of psycho women in the past. . .

. . . . .

Anyway organizing something Good and Reliable for incoming New Years' Eve; hopefully for Us ALL will be a good 2019 far, Far, FAR Better than 2018 was. . .

 

@inane.imp ; @Golem2God ; @Beodren . . .

I'm slowly (TTtttooooo Ssssslllllooooowwwwlllyyy. . . . .for My tastes !!) reigning in the last mishaps of a Horrible Last Year (2018 was MORE Horrible that other past years it was CHOCK-FULL of promising ideas and even GOOD things, that made SOURER the various issues that are YET plaguing Me) and, while TODAY Afternoon have to go to an impromptu Work Conference and check some MORE "Family Banking Taxes" issues, then I could write down the LAST useful infos about the Battle Map and so You could start the Attack at Your leisure (or asking some MORE infos to plan a PERFECT attack). . .

Outside the various issues of R.W. that are strangling My (few) free time and (scarce) creativity, I PROBABLY have made the idea of the idealized "Simulated Teseum Smuggler Warehouse" a TAD too perfectioned and tailored on the capabilities of the Team, to have a "Vanilla Standard Touchstone" of the TYPICAL "Target" of the Minotaurs Paramilitary Enforcers aimed operational theatre. . .

As yet said the "Enemy Personnel" is representing "Rogue Caledonian Cateran-Bandits", "Traitor Inrmandhinos Basque Pirates", "U.S.Ariadnan Borderlands Desperados" and the Wulver / Dogwarrior "Kazak Mafyia Thugs" that more or less SUM UP the "Civilian Criminal Underworld" that comprises the low key "Lowlives" of Planet Dawn's "Submondo Underworld" where Svengali usually pay his cronies, the N.E.M.E.S.I.S. Slavery Ring acquire Duped Enforcers (And whose disgusting "Indentured Prostitution Operational Practices" will be put OFF SCREEN on the BACKGROUND as directly asked by @Beodren . . .!!) and a POTENTIAL "Shaasvastii Speculo Infiltration" could have fertile roots to "Infect". . .

Other DIFFERENT enemies would be EITHER Paramilitary Mercenary Forces employed by Offworld Teseum "Robber Barons" or the VERY "Drone Hordes" of Svengali (that employs "Cheap Knock-Offs" of Pan-O, Yujing, Haqqislam and Nomads "Surplus Vintage Frames" rebuilt with Araidnan Tech Base as "Basic Models") and so TECHNICALLY IDENTICAL as the Minotaurs Available "Personnel, Wargear and Mech-Arsenal" (so these will be ESSENTIALLY Mirror Matches). . .

. . . . .

KEEP IN MIND that the "Simulated Criminal Warehouse" is SUPPOSED to be INSIDE the Borders of a typical "Fringe Outskirts Community" of Planet Dawn, JUST BEYOND the typical overseeing of the NATIVE Law Agencies (U.S.Ariadnan Marshalls, Kazak Military Police, Caledonian Archons' "Roving Warbands" of the Justicar, and the EXTRA EFFICIENT but LOW NUMBER Merovingian Metro "Gendarmerie S.W.A.T."); this means that a FEW ELITES STEALTH-INSERTION of EXTRA CAPABLES Veterans (such as Cyber Dogwarrior Mormaer, Hi-Tech Nomad Gecko Exoframe and a ALIEN Hybrid-Tech Assault Specialist) will be the BEST POSSIBLE option to LIMIT unwanted casualties and collateral damages. . .

. . . . .

Should the Operational Target be an Offshore Unused Oil Drilling Platform transformed as "Smuggler Flotilla Haven" by Irmandhinos, or a "Fortified Outpost Repurposed Stanitsa" (the typical Kazak "Paramilitary" crossbreed between a LARGE Family Farm and a SMALL Border Township) where EVERY breathing soul is EITHER

1°) Active Member of the Criminal Operation (or their IMMEDIATE FAMILY, and so ARMED & DANGEROUS even if Small Offsprings Stablehands or Elderly Matron Grannies). . .

2°) Chained UNBROKEN, but crazed / enraged Antipode kept in a cage or ENCLOSED Wired Patrol-Lane; so POTENTIALLY a danger EVEN for the Criminals if freed (as some R.W. Thugs employ RABID Pitbulls to "Fence In" their Backdoors). . .

3°) Captured / Imprisoned "Human Shield Hostages" / Forced Labor (such as Paramedic kidnapped from a healthier community and forced to "Indentured Service" by the Criminals); VERY SUBJECT to "Collateral Damage" but HOPEFULLY kept in an insulated Location (to be HOPEFULLY rescued by a "Daring Alpha Fireteam" STEALTH incursion. . . . . JUST BEFORE an Air Attack Bomb-Strafing commence !!). . .

. . . . .

Hopefully I will be able to Link:

1°) "Sanitized" Battle Map, FOLLOWING CLEARLY the Tactical Suggestions of @Beodren and showing what Roving Patrols, Fixed Emplacement Sentinels and OTHER "Useful Intel Data" will be ON EACH P.C. chosen path of approach. . .

2°) "Inner Structure Overhead Gantries" and Guard Turret "Linesight / Firearcs" to have a good idea about how the STEALTHIER of the Fireteam Members could go "By Rooftop Silent Moves". . .

3°) a VERY GENERIC survey of the Tactical ASSESSMENT of Enemy Forces with PREDICTABLE "Reinforcement Vector Direction" of OTHER stationed troops (A.K.A. Your devious Gamemaster "Burning" Heat Points to "Summon" FURTHER Enemy troops); these will be VERY USEFUL to place the D-Charges, Portable Repeater Antennas and "Heavy Snipergun Markers" by a "Support Team" (such as @Golem2God character's Merovingian Wife Squad, that EXCELS as "Support Distant Sniper / Machinegunners"). . .

Another OPTIONAL "Support Call" that the Players could "SUMMON" by burning Momentum / Infinity Points / VERY GOOD Leadership Rolls is a "Combat Pet" (Uja's Snakewolf "Knucker" or Alistair's "Barghest" [?] Cyber-Antipode) leading a "Small Pheromonized Pack" of their MORE SAVAGE brethrens toward a Target as a sort of "Zerg Rush Organic Smart-Missile"; a TRUE "Heat Seeking Smart-Missile" that is LAUGHINGLY able to pierce the measly Enemy Defences to strike a "Gun Nest" entrenched even INSIDE the Main Compound or @inane.imp Zondbot Drone leading a "Sabotage Swarm" of SMALL Arachnoid Ariadnan Robots (no more HITECH that CONTEMPORARY remote piloted "Spiderbots" but fitted with TESEUM Blade-Fangs) to cut a "Wall-Door" or weaken a Support Ceiling Beam. . .

This GENERIC SURVEY will "Cross" a OLD "Municipal Blueprint" of the Compund Structure with an Aerial Recon Drone / Satellite View "Sweep Intel Search"; will have ALSO I.R. / Thermographic scans, BUT as with ALL "Planet Dawn Black-Ops" the presence of Low % Teseum Alloys EVEN IN STRUCTURAL BEAMS and of ACTUAL HIGH % Raw Ore Ingots in "Target Crates" of Smuggler Havens is a SUREFIRE WAY to have "NOT 100% reliable Intel" (as BEFITTING an "Abstract Tactical Rule System" as Infinity is)

 

Still coping with the USUAL R.W. Issues, but continuing to finalize everything that is discussed and TRYING to keep it BOTH well-balanced and flexible ENOUGH to allow for "Last Minute Requests" from the Players. . .!!

Work-In-Progress, results (HOPEFULLY) soon. . . . .!!!

 

Forgot to add an IMPORTANT "Tactical Ruleset Discussion". . .

As for now the "Proposed Plan" was ROUGHLY alongside the lines of:

. . . . .

1°) on the SOUTHER side of the Map, in the shallow brackish waters of the disused Miners Harbour, JUST before the Loading Ramp of the Cargo Boxes Depot "Transformed" in a "Smugglers Hideout" there is the Gecko Suit of @inane.imp ready to act as needed. . .

At the moment is not clear WHERE (if at all) Tony Rodriguez would like to put his "Ancillary Zondbot Tin-Man Drone"; cleverly He decided to NOT send it scouting around because not VERY suited to Stealth (even if SOME of its "Vanilla Gear" could be EXCHANGED, even at last minute, for "Stealth+ Mods" !!) and likely vulnerable to the Heavy Weaponry of the "Simulated Criminal Guards" patrolling around. . .

At the moment the "Submerged Navy Seal" Gecko is PERFECTLY suited to execute "Sensor Scan" sweeps of the zone and SUBTLY scramble the PRIMITIVE sensors, radios and digital cameras of the "Ariadnan Thugs" (so the Humanoid Drones of H.I.V.E.M.I.N.D. acting as "Typical Lowlife of Planet Dawn"). . .

The combination of Tony's UNDIVIDED attention (as NOT actively piloting, for the moment, a Light Exoframe in the mid-tick of a battle) + the "Customized" Advanced Sensor Suite of the Gecko + the Geist "Betty" (a Hacking / Anti-Hacking personalized L.A.I.) is QUITE powerful indeed. . .!!

This will give Him AMPLE occasions of execute SUCCESSFUL Rolls of Awareness + Skills and ACCRUE Momentum to grant as useful bonus to the two other P.C. actively scouting the Location PHYSICALLY. . .

. . . . .

2°) From the other two sides (North and East) of the Map will enter the MOST STEALTHILY possible Uja and Alistair, with "Barebone Wargear" (Light Monoedge / Teseum blades and Cal.20 Autoshotgun "Pistols" with Silenced "Light A.P." Shells with the Subtle:2 and A.P.=1 tags) and working around the Visible "Sentinels Sight" and Cameras Arc-Spanning. . .

They will be able BOTH to carry each a typical "Ariadnan Satchel Bag" of D-Charges AND Evo Repeater Antennas (no more encumbering / difficult to Hide that a Big Collapsible Nightstick); each D-Charge is worth a COUPLE of Evo-Antenna and the Satchel Bag could carry easily (and NOT noisily, but Stealth-O.K.) 10 D-Charges (Ariadnan C-7 "Neo Semtex" Plastic Explosive packets with tiny encripted Radio Detonators) or 20 Antennas or a Mix-N-Match of those numbers. . .

While the D-Charges would be VERY useful to open up "Assault Avenues" (1 in an INTACT wall will grant a small hole where EVEN a Dogface or a "Naked Symbiosuited" could squeeze into, while 2-3 carefully, strategically placed could open a Hole BIG ENOUGH for a Nomad Gecko to gallivantly saunter through, especially if put in a YET damaged wall section) the Antennas could grant an EXTENDED ratio of Tony "Uber Hacking". . .

PLEASE NOTE that while they are Robotic Drones, they are ALSO controlled by a "Free Unlimited Artificial Intelligence" RIGHT THERE (and so MORE effective than a distant "Garrison" of Dakinis / Garudas that A.L.E.P.H. could "Puppeteer" ONLY via a Remote Proxy Encrypted Channel and Subspatial Quantronic Link!!); and MORE ON IT they are effectively simulating HUMANOID ORGANICS of the "Ariadnan Ateks Flavour" that have NOT a Cube, a Geist or a Comlog as other "Human Sphere Citizens" would have. . .

On the other side, while NEITHER their "Minds" NOR their "Primitive Cased Ammo Guns" could be hacked, their Surplus Digital Snipergun Scopes, their Sentinel I.R. Visors and their Tactical Mastoid Radios wil be LAUGHABLY easy for a competent Corregidoran Nomad to hack with "Panache" (trivially easy Scramble / Disturb comms with alarming grind-screams, a little more difficult create "False Sound Holoechos", "Fata Morgana Illusions" or "Stolen Voices" of accepted Commanders !!). . .

. . . . .

3°) @Golem2God Uja'Rak'Se'Ok will be wearing JUST the "Unarmoured Undermuscles" of the Tohaa-Made Symbiotic Suit (to LATER add-on the Armoured High % Teseum Alloy Plates, the Winged Jetpack, the Anchor Recoil Bracing and the Enhanced Sight Helmet that will create the "Hybrid Heavy Aerial Deployement Assaulter" !!!) that will enhance quite Speed and Dexterity (while, under the Platings will be more "Geared" towards Strenght-Enhancing) and offer sizable bonus to a "Stealth Incursion" that IF NOT Silent and Shadowy will be AT LEAST mind-numbingly Quick and Agile. . .

His "Attack Pet" Knucker, the Ariadnan Snakewolf, will be EXTREMELY helpful to scout around (imagine an Acidic-Poisonous Velociraptor that is more or less shaped like a "Boa Constrictor" with spindly Komodo Dragon legs) and could be "Stealthily Commanded" with some quickly typed Comlog-Prompt of Pheromonical Nature. . .

. . . . .

4°) @Beodren Alistair will be wearing not much than the typical "Zip-Belts / Velcro-Straps" Light Fatigue of a Dogface (those that enlarge, fall-off, are discrded when assuming Dogwarrior Battleform), UNDER a Camo-Stealth "Highlander Fusilier Poncho" enhanced by ALL the Hi-Tech that Haqqislamites, Nomads and Tohaa could conceivably put with "Smart Fabrics", "Nanotech Weave" and "Reactive-Adaptive Varnish"; his "Stealth Incursion BONUS Momentum Points" will be LESS Quick'N'Nimble than Uja and more "Hide-In-Shadow / Plain-Sight Invisible" nature. . .

His "Attack Pet" the Cybernetically-Enhanced Antipode (don't remember if we settled for a nickname like "Cujo", "Barghest" or "Baskerville" as reminding the Hellhounds of Highlander Culture !!) is STILL quite apt at "Move Silently / Hide In Shadows", but is ALSO quite "Heavily Armoured" and MORE IMPORTANTLY is the ONLY ANTIPODE with an Active Datasphere Presence that make It quite able to act as "Mobile Repeater" and EVEN launch ISTINCTUALLY some "Attack String Codes" written, on the fly, by Tony Rodriguez. . .

. . . . .

5°) Like said, this is a "Typical Standard Vanilla Mission"; even if being SIMULATED in the middle of the Minotaurs Headquarters is SUPPOSEDLY being "Happening in the Middle of the Ariadnan Borderlands". . .

BUT THERE IS STILL possibility of "Fellow Mercs Support" of the typical kind that WILL BE available to "Fireteam Alpha" during TRUE LIVE FIRE Missions; a "Camouflaged Van" (with HIDDEN "Heavy % Teseum Alloy Plating" that make it a "Covert A.P.C.") for missions in Close Urban Areas where "Stealth Aerial Extraction" is unadvisable AND / OR one of the "Paramilitary Vtols" of the Minotaurs that will be flying HIGH ALTITUDE but STILL be able to "Airdrop Supplies" or launch a PRECISELY aimed-through-laser-painter A.P. / Frag Missile. . .

While "Fireteam Alpha" is mainly a FRONTAL ASSAULT Unit (even if capables of Stealth Scouting the MAIN ISSUE of Alistair and Uja "Tactical Shthick" is be FULLY ARMOURED / FULLY ARMED and "Screaming Charge" the Enemy); a typical "Support Team" either YET deployed on nearby rooftops or hiding in the Vehicle(s) will be AKIN to Uja'ak'Se'Ok Wife, Arabelle Archer, "Fireteam Omega", a 5-strong Squad of Merovingian Metros "Urban Warfare Specialists"/ Loup Garous "Heavy Snipers" / Moblot-Briscard "Support Gunners". . . . .

On the "Live Fire Exercise" issue of a SIMULATED battle, please remember that WHILE THE HUMANDROIDS are employing "Pain-Taser Paintballs" Ammo, to NOT kill "Fireteam Alpha" on their FIRST "Solo Mission" the PLAYERS will fire Live Ammo (H.I.V.E.M.I.N.D. does not. . . MIND !; the wrecking of His Drones is STILL "Useful Gear Data") they will have LIVE AMMO useful for the Players to pilfer to REPLENISH "Spent Reloads" (so, for example, one with "Combi-Shotgun with Underbarrell Grenadier" will have 2-3 LIVE 40mm. Warheads and 1-2 pouches of Cal.12 / 20mm. LIVE "Boarding-Shotgun Banana-Clips", GOOD for the Players to "Loot From The Corpse" !!!)

. . . . .

If there are other issues that have to be addressed PLEASE FEEL FREE to ask. . . . . . . . .!!!!!

 

@Golem2God ; @Beodren ; @inane.imp . . .

It is NOW 15 Days, two weeks that 2019 started AND STILL R.W. try to kick Me in the Nuts. . . . .!!!

Workplace Problems, Tax Issues, Lousy Job Associates and "Assorted Psychotic Familial Crew" (from noisy, obtrusive Relatives to TOTALLY crazed "Would-Be-Lover-But-Maybe-Not" Women) are ATTEMPTING again to drag Me in the mud of "Not-Being-Able-To-Do-Anything". . .

Luckily they JUST managed to slow down My retooling of stuff, but VERY SOON will be able to post EVERYTHING that is needed to properly Start, and "Roll On" the Simulated Live-Fire Mission. . .

. . . . .

Comparing the Stats of the Players Characters and the ones of the "Enemy Bots" I checked that EVERY Enemy, UNLESS is a "Sentinel Model TOTALLY hidden in Camo, between stacked crates or roof beamings" is IMPOSSIBILITATED to Act BEFORE the Players, even if having "Overwatch Reaction Skills". . .

As such, when any of the Players feel that Action is a little slow down, could DECIDE to Move still OUTSIDE THEIR ALLOTTED "TURN" and NOT awaiting a Written Answer by the G.M. to (HOPEFULLY Silently) proceed to Eliminate a Roving Patrolman, Fixed Emplacement Guard or Posted Sentinel, who will be able to REACT only IF & WHEN surviving the "Silent Kill Assassination" (and GOOD LUCK to "Raise Alarms" if a burly Morat or a Cyberlimbed Dogface is strangling You, has YET kicked away the gun and a Corregidoran Geist is scrambling Your Radio Comms !!). . . . . .!!!

. . . . .

In THEORY this will SPEED the resolution of the "Metal Gear Solid" styled Incursion BEFORE the "Big Gun Battle" will happen with carefully, smartly placed D-Charges crumble half of the place down. . .

We will see if My OPTIMISTIC predictions are accurate or not. . . . . .!!!

 

Yeah, sorry, but at the moment I'm ALMOST bed-ridden with a "Second" Iteration of Seasonal Viral Flu (coughing OFF my Lungs !!). . . . . and STILL I have some important Job-related issues to solve (sitting in front of My Workstation, and draped in MORE Pile-Blankets than a Haqqislamite Troop, like a Khawarji / Touareg, is Cloaked !!!) along with "Family Money" tax problems to check. . .

. . . . .

Will try AT LEAST to post AS SOON AS POSSIBLE the "Evident Location" of the Not-Hidden Guards and those "Patrol Paths" that will POTENTIALLY intersecate with the PROJECTED avenues of approach of the Characters, as evinced by Your well-drawn Map. . .!!

Should a Character need to roll AGAINST a "Reactive Enemy", without the Gamemaster's intervention, then their Stats will be as follow:

The "Sentinel Drones" are like "Pan-Oceanian Fusiliers / Corporate Cops" (Lower Stats of both in a given Skill Field) with Light Infantry Armour and Light Shotguns. . .

The "Tough Brute Sergeants" (stationed at keypoints) are like "Ariadnan Wulvers / Chimera Gladiators" (whose Stats are LOWER !!) with Medium Infantry Armour and Boarding Shotguns. . .

The "Camo-Cloaked Snipers" (a Few on the highest EXTERNAL Vantage Poinst; far more inside) are like "Ariadnan Caterans / Submondo Smugglers" with Light CIVILIAN Armour, Non-T.O. Camo Cloaks and Heavy Shotguns with REDUCED Reload, Range AND Damage Stats overall. . .

No "Nemesis-Level" enemies (close combat specialists like "Assassin Cyborgs") will be appearing as Reaction to Players insertion vectors. . .

. . . . .

I am very, Very, VERY sorry for the Delays, but Real World STILL kick Me often in the Nuts. . . . . .!!!

 

"Health Levels" Status Update. . .

I'm slowly recovering from the Bad Viral Flu wave, and it was quite hideous (the peak was hallucinatory-level agony, with bones aching and muscles badly cramped, lungs as if on fire, spasmic coughs and a general feebleness of very hard-to-suffure kind !!!) but I managed to resist, soldier-on and endure. . . .

As is said in Old Adages "What Does Not Kill You, Make You Stronger !!!!!"

 

@Beodren ; @inane.imp ; @Golem2God . . .

My "Personal Shitstorm" (many, multiple, tiny and JUST annoying small things SOMETIMES are worse, all combined, than a SINGLE Big Issue !!!) had FINALLY passed and, while it was quite annoying, I managed to "Survive" unscathed, more or less, so I think that I could be able to resume the Assault of the "Simulated Battle". . .

Managed also to find some EXTRA Stuff from Modiphius Games, linked from their Forums of OTHER Games with a Ruleset compatible with Infinity, that COULD be Cool to add to our Game; as soon as I managed to see if they are balanced will submit it to Your check and approval. . .

. . . . .

At the moment the Plan proposed by Lieutenant Alistair was good ALSO for Uja and Tony, if I'm not mistaken, so we will act on that. . .

Should You want to propose alternatives, feel free to express them; at worst I will "Edit" an Action that result NOT in the best interests of a given Player Character. . . . .!!!

 

@inane.imp . . .

Don't worry about it; we will proceed easily on Your recommendations, moving the "Chess Pieces" along until You can resume. . .

@Golem2God ; @Beodren . . .

We discussed beforehand that the Gecko of Tony could stay easily submerged in the shallow waters of the harbour; could anyway help Your stealth insertion by employing Your Comlogs (encrypted with Extra Secure Quantronic comms; courtesy of the Money of the Haqqislamite Backers of the Minotaurs paying the BEST Data Cracker of the Nomad Nation to write hyperpowerful Tactical Squad Networks). . .

Essentially will be AS IF the two Team Mates are "Mobile Pitcher / Repeaters" with whom Tony could do His "Hacking Magic". . .

Also a similar "Two-Way Only" Secure Tacnet is done with the Comlog of Alistair and Uja, with the "Mirror Clones" of their Geist (lobotomized "Limited Intelligence" copies of their own) housed in the Chem-Dispenser Collars of their "Combat Pets", the Cyborg Antipode (don't remember if a name like "Barghest", "Hellhound", "Cujo" or "Baskerville" was selected or not) of the Ariadnan Caledonian Werewolf and the serpentine Snakewolf of the Morat Daturazi-Krakot. . .

In that case the "Hacking Repeat" of Tony will NOT be direct, as with the Team-Mates Comlogs, but will need to "Rebound" from their own Comlogs to the Pet's ones. . . . .a little complicate, but potentially useful as the beasts are EXTREMELY suited to Stealth Incursions. . . . .!!!

 

@Beodren . . .

The Antipode was kidnapped at the "Ariadna American Frontier", many years ago, by some unscrupolous Desperados, sold to Nomads Smugglers and subjected to ALL manners of hideous, horrific experiments by Praxis "Black Lab" Scientists in Tunguska. . .

They wanted to know why Antipodes seems to be 100% rejecting Cybernetic Implants (while they were Psychopatic and Deranged "For SCIENCE !!!" mad scientists, that wanted to weaponize Antipodes, BUT were paid ALSO by "Patriotic" Ariadnan Military Committees that wanted to have BETTER Controlled Packs). . .

Antipodes, as a RULE, reject ALL manners of Non-Silk based Implants (and EVEN High % Silk-Based Bioware has a BIG % of rejecting lethally !!) and have ZERO "Digital Avatar Mayasphere" presence (meaning STANDARD Anitpode P.C. / N.P.C. Sidekicks, have NO "Firewall Damages" but neither Virtual Attacks or Action Options). . .

But the unfortunate that is now Your "Bonded D&D Ranger Familiar" is the LAST of a rather LONG string of Failures (more or less 10-15 Antipodes, all powerful Alpha Chieftain strains, of various breeds were callously sacrificed by the "Evil Mad Genius Cadre" of the infamous "Malpheas Module" of Bakunin's Praxis, NOW "Cleansed with Purging Flames" by Moderator's Elite Task Forces) BEFORE they realized that the HIGHER Teseum % Pure Alloy a Cybernetic Part is for an Antipode and the LESSER is the % of Lethal Rejection. . .

Your Cyber-Antipode is the ONE and ONLY of His kind in ALL of the Human Sphere, and has ENOUGH % of Teseum / Nessium Alloy, bonded with EXTRA Pure Silk to have rather ASTRONOMICAL costs of maintenance (possible ONLY amongst the Minotaurs, who "Blend" the "Fringe Science" of Nomads, Haqqislamites and Renegade Tohaas !!!). . .

If let himself choose a Name, will select something that ROUGHLY could be translated in "Antipode Language" (there are TWO, one Guttural "Neanderthal Cant" easily spoken ALSO by expert Human Pack-Controllers, and another IMPOSSIBLE for Non-Antipodes to understand, as it is a complex mix of Grunts, Howls, Yelps, Expressive Postures and Pheromone Emissions !!) as something much like: "Metalface Painful Outcast". . .

 

Excellent Name. . .!!

Antipodes usually have TRIPLE names, when they are a "Complete" Tri-Pack (as EACH name refers to a "Single Third Part" when doing "Battle Language") so "Iron-Masked-Wolf" (or whatever combination) is a cool, good name, as the "Cyberbox Cranial Implant Geist" and the Bond with Alistair have the Cyborg Antipode AS Intelligent AS a COMPLETE Tri-Pack (Single Antipode "Lone Wolves" = Slightly smarter than Trained Dogs; Complete Tri-Pack, or K9 "Half", are = Very Intelligent & Capable "Human Savage Barbarian" !!). . .
