Necroposting FTW.

I still wonder about fireblades facial expression. Will we ever get a hint/explanation in the pages about that?

I guess considering how much damage a drunken Barsam could cause, we would have to assume that sobriety must be accepted as a Barsam virtue. ...so facing the imminent downfall of their economy due to alcohol-induced collateral damage they chose to become sober space preachers... ...amen^H^H^ahem^H^...

Are the Nibiren different from that?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntrSnMPr2X4 I just watched this clip with Stephen Fry and it really got me thinking. How would the loroi react to the fact that one of the most common curses in our international language (if not the most common) is the same word we use for the act of mating? They´ll ...

I agree a tree-climbing octopus monster sounds like an awesome pet, maybe Stillstorm has one as a pet in her Captain's office just like Jean-Luc Picard and his Scorpionfish.

Now we need a depiction.

How high are the highest mountains on the Loroi homeplanets?
And do they climb like humans climbed the highest peaks?

Kind of wonder how accurate the new calculated Formalhaut b orbit is. They somehow went from an 875-year orbit to a 2000-year one with the addition of just one more data point (which doesn't appear to deviate significantly from the previous three). Reminds me of us playing around with the new mount...

Hm. But they´re about the closest thing to dinosaurs. Which the Loroi as a genetically engineered "new" lifeform didn´t had.
Or did "they" dig in some skeletons?

Necroposting, YAY! But perhaps more to the point, a powerful Unsheathed can junk most armored vehicles. Does this work for incoming shells or warheads on plain sight, too? Or are these objects moving too fast, since in another thread you said: Fireblade can punch holes in armored vehicles (or anythi...

I want a tree-climbing squid-thing! *pouts* Something between a Facehugger and a Squirrel? Unfortunately cats are telepathic as well and the Feline-Loroi alliance will be our downfall, we should have given them more tuna . Salmon, at least. Bah...now we need artwork of Loroi with kittens. LOL oi ca...

Even that let Farseers burn out.

Hm, it´s the LOROI q&a-thread, but one question on the Barsam:

Please tell me that for their appearance you weren´t inspired by this:

"The price is worth it?"

Karst45 wrote:BTW: i witnessed my fist solar eclipse

Next one is in May?

How densely packed are Loroi cities? Is there anything that can compare to modern American/Asian cities, much less future ones? I'd imagine, given their disposition towards personal space, cities would be more European. Shallow but spread out. I have a hard time imagining Loroi bumping into one ano...

I'm not Fred, but to me the possible implication can be phrased in two words: "We're doomed!"

Oh, you missed the other thread?

My conclusion would be to not lay ALL our eggs in the spaceelves-basket.

Rereading the story, another question popped up: http://www.well-of-souls.com/outsider/outsider041.html http://www.well-of-souls.com/outsider/outsider042.html Beryl asks about "human sanzai", and Alex answer is "...only in old sories." Is he referring to sth "real" in outsiderverse history, or just ...

Loroi intelligence estimates that the Historians are somewhere in Tech Level 12 ; That´s around 1 to 1,5 Tech Levels above the rest. Like early combustion engines vs nuclear power.
