"Ah, but may I refer kind sir with deep pockets to Rifts Mercenaries pg. 90 and Commander Grey...He is modified standard human, not native of anime-dimension, but some women find large eyes expressive and sexy...or so I am told."

All I can say.......Is.......Jeepers! Creepers! Where did you get those peepers?

Darkmax wrote:Colonel must have headaches constantly... that large an eye will press into the wall of the eye cavity....

Extensive biomods...not to mention it pressing into the brain cavity...But pain is part of a Splugorth slave's lot, and after much experimentation, I'm sure the biowizards have found ways to suppress the pain or work around the difficulties and obvious shortcomings of human anatomy....

Just imagine a pair of those in place of your eyes. Imagine how disfigured you'd be.

Yeah, that is true. Imagine the blinders you could put on some of those.

And you thought Vin Diesel's Riddick had problems...

I was talking blinders.

Those are the big panels on the outside of some of those carriage drawn horses.

Yeah. They are on the outside of the horses eyes to keep them focused on the way the coachman wants them to go.

yeah, I'm sure you are right about that. It keeps them from being interfered with during their races.

Though I recall one horse who jumped the rail and took a shortcut(greyhounds are better known for this stunt)......Unfortunately, racehorses are so abyssmally overbred I'm afraid they're something of nitwits who are easily distracted....Like domestic turkeys...

Yeah, but forward synchronized eyes are a characteristic of predatory species(for the most part)...

Hmmm....wonder if you were making a war mount with biowizardry and gave a horse a third eye(or Eylor) covering that blind spot directly in front(provided the horse didn't go mad)...?

Yeah, I think your right about those horses and the way they are bred.

First of all, if I'm doing biowizardry mods on horses, is to reinforce those leg bones, and build in some major regeneration abilities...no more 'shoot the dumb animal because of a leg infection'.....MY horses will either laugh at infection, or simply jettison the damaged leg and grow a new one...

Darkmax wrote:hmm... sounds like an elephant to me!

No, that's only if it's designed by committee...this is strictly in-house design work...

On the plus side, no worrying about horse thieves....
or supplementing your horse's diet with treats....

And that firebreathing option looks so intriguing....

That would make an intriguing horse Taalismn! I know several people who'd like to have horses like that!

A Nightmare - at lest in D20 - is actually a horse-looking demon,
not an animated dead.

Adios

So with Biowizardry we can create a slew of 'False Demons'...have the prestige of owning a demonic mount without the discipline issues associated with keeping in thrall the real thing....

As Barbaro proves...horses are just too fragile....

Which is why my first order of business is to crossbreed horses with giant pumas, with superior megadamage bones, limb regeneration, and the ability to communicate with caretakers(hey, if an injured dog can make his way to an emergency room...).

Or else find somewhere in the Megaverse there would likely to be horses raised since their creation in a magic environment. I know I have a type of horse in some of my own worlds that would be considered a MDC creation.

Gecko-Ponies...they can climb the sides of buildings and graze on window flower-boxes....

Not a tail-swat, but a tongue-zap...

Well, looks like another thread/application for EoE has been spawned....Surveillance sats...

So we also need EoE housings with space maneuvering capabilities...I'll have to check what spells could be applicable for repairing starship hulls and the like...

Maybe there's something ELSE to the Eye atop the Pyramid of the Illuminati/Free Masons?

Shhhhhhh!!!!!

Darkmax wrote:Eeks! If that is the case... the Splynnie must have been absent or worse, becoming less intelligent when he chooses Bush to be his lackey.....

No, Bush is a Namtar Hollow Man....The Splugorth minion is Donald Trump, developing real estate in anticipation of establishing a foothold for dimensionally gated MInion forces to take up residence in the US.

So where have we taken this topic now? I know it's way off target.

??? ??? I'm not real sure how to respond! Those are some real divergent characters!

Darkmax wrote:we are always off-topic....

What of Bill Gates, Taalismn? Naruni?

He's one of the Aspects of NEXUS(from Splicers)...Omnipotent Nerd....

I ultimately refuse to bow down to B.G.!

Bill Gates,
Ted Turner, and Paris Hilton; three of the many heads of the Beast of the Apoclaypse....
And the Gathering of Champions in Africa to fight the Four HOrsemen thought THEY had it rough....

Isn't Brittany S. the fourth horseman?

Brittany actually had some talent before Celebrity Corruption set in...that fungal rot of the nervous system that sets in, causing atrophy of the brain, a backing up of the gastrointestinal tract, and the stiffening of the skin into a plastic imitation of life...

Paris juts had money and parents who didn't ship her off to a military camp to toughen her up....


Hmmmm....Rifts Earth...Possible site for a finishing school for the brats of uber-wealthy in other dimensions?

"YOu don't realize how GOOD you got it with just canned foods you can buy anywhere and a spoon to eat the stuff with, and a safe place to eat it in, until you've spent a week dodging vampires, bandits, sandworms, possessing entities, and trigger-happy Deadboys in Nevada!!!"

LOL That is a funny idea!

True, but 'sold off in the Merakesh meatmarket as daylabor' doesn't have quite the comic value as 'eaten while saying 'good doggie!' to a Phantom Wolf'.

"I'm sorry ma'am, this is 'Camp Merc', not 'Club Med', and we have no Singles Night! Oh, and, ma'am?...DROP AND GIVE ME FIFTY!!!! RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW!!!! AND PUT YOUR TRAINEE BODYARMOR ON RIGHT NOW OR I'LL SHOOT YOU NOW MYSELF!!!! ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES ARE FORBIDDEN!!! I DON'T CARE IF YOU CHIPPED A NAIL, 'CAUSE THE THUNDERBEETLES WILL CHEW OFF YOUR WHOLE ARM!!!!"

Nope...the real mercs are just getting soem ablative meat to distract enemy fire while they carry out the REAL mission(though disposing of some idiots can be considered a REAL mission)....

Send a few floating guardian EoE drones to herd the celeb-suicide squads along towards the enemy....Much more effective that 'rehab' for some idiots....

Darkmax wrote:man... that would be a show of real talents! Talents they don't usually turn up in their movies or whatever the celebrity is famous for. ... Come to think of it, what the heck is Paris Hilton famous for?.....

Broken Field Running? Evasive Driving? Camouflage Arranging? Firing Firearms with Life Ammo? Begging and Pleading for One's Life?
It's the performance of the century if you can convince an opposing enemy force not to shellack your position with napalm....

As for the latter? Professional Celebrity...She's famous for being famous...and annoyingly rich...

Darkmax wrote:Annoyingly devastating!

A train wreck waiting to happen....

Me? I'd rather watch professional road bowling....

Celebrity Boot camp? What about celebrities using or having been seen using Eyes of eylor?

That's like asking.."Are those REAL?"

Hmmm...Eye of Eylor chest implants....has a certain horror factor element to it....

Expecially if you had two of those cchest implants.


I can hear those questions now!

"Are those real?"

"Yes."
SPELL: PETRIFICATION
SPELL: HORROR FACTOR

(imagine being turned to stone and utterly terrified...living death...)

Hmmm Interesting ways it's going!

Who said anything about eating?
But you gotta admitt, it stops people from hitting on you!

Unless a Gorgon decides to hit on you....

Petrifying Bite versus Basilisk Gaze....

Either way, you don't want to be behind either of these women at the bar when they start fighting...

That would be on heck of a cat fight using EoE.

Yep. kinda makes you regret shelling out for that Staff of Domination as a gift for your mage-girlfriend....
