Re: Spirit Walker - Spoilers - Chapter 15

*It's possible that some or all of her mind is synthetic. I have a feeling The Shadow Fox made the shadow fox's pretty intelligent in the first place. So she had to do was give the fox an education. Darwin still applies in this world. Shadow foxes presumably look like Shadow Fox. So no hands. Their...

Re: Spirit Walker - Spoilers - Chapter 15

*It's possible that some or all of her mind is synthetic. If shadow foxes are as smart as animal foxes, then a part of the transformation would have been an artificial-intelligence style brain expansion. That kind of thing can go wrong in all sorts of interesting and hence entertaining ways. I have...

Re: Spirit Walker - Spoilers - Chapter 15

I don't know if it was just me but did anyone else think of the first Matrix movie when the Spirit Shadowfox was explaining the working of illusions to Kyven? How their mind could make it real and the mind caused pain/injury or whatever the illusion consisted of. That free your mind type speech Mor...

Re: Telepathic immunity

Robocop, and Major Kusanagi seem like bad examples to me. Robocop's brain was left largely intact. The majors may have had allot of augmentation, but the one of the primary themes was the enter-mingling of man and machine and she had several psychic experiences. The technology used in ghost in the s...

Re: Arcans' Creation

It's also possible that someone was working on a method to allow the splicing of specific animal genes into humans to provide for better strength or stamina or night vision or ... to make better soldiers and made a little boo-boo in a virus that escaped and got out of hand. oops. I mean, it's not l...

Re: Arcans' Creation

I rather agree with ANTIcarrot's take on it, economics is why they exist. Why sell one self replicating machine when you can sell lots of different models and keep the design face and make future business to yourself. One -selling point- may be that they are self replicating, but you know who are g...

Arcans' Creation

This topic was taking up allot of room on the chapter threads so I thought it deserved it own. On Arcan creation many people have supported human creation I don't. First reason arcan humanness. If arcans were made by humans to fight in the war. Said humans would have gone only as far as was necessar...

Re: Spirit Walker - Spoilers - Chapters 1 through part of 14

Err, i was not trying to say that the shadowfox spirit is sexist, but the human culture around kyven -may- be. But it may be that having a room full of both gender teenagers are not a good way to teach a trade. Hormones will always be there after all. So it could be that things are separated that w...

Re: Karinne Generation's powers

*snip* If the Consortium are the main power in the Andromeda Galaxy (twice as massive as the Milky Way) they could have astonishing numbers. If they are not then even more exotic technology may come into the equation, brought either by Consortium allies, potential Karinne (foe of my enemy is my fri...

Re: Spirit Walker Spoilers - Chapter 14

There can also be other factors in living longer then just evolution, if you use Humnas as an example. Stone Age humans life expectancy was the early thirties and didn't get much better until Humans Science and Medcine improved beyond simple bandages. Once Humans learned the importance of maintaini...

Re: Spirit Walker Spoilers - Chapter 14

Here's some problems I see with the Shaman trying to replace crystals. 1. Some Shaman are restricted into making only 1 color crystal ie: Coldfoot can only make Red Crystals, some Shaman can't make crystals. So with only around a thousand Shaman they would be very hard pressed making enough crystal...

Re: Spirit Walker Spoilers - Chapter 14

Ok a few things One reason Archans have had shaman longer is they live shorter lives and breed faster then Humans do. This is the Reason they are just now starting to see Human Shamans Born. Also i think it's a first step for Human or ( Earth ) sprits to begin to be Created/born Phantom I have a fe...

Re: Spirit Walker Spoilers - Chapter 14

I have been following this story and I must say I am very impressed by the setup and general way it shapes up.I do have a comment for this chapter tho, we have seen the Arcans and Kiven discuss what can be done about the crystals drying up but noone have said anything about the Shamans ability to c...
