Could something really weird like this happen? I know it's extremely unlikely, I'm just curious if it would be possible to "glimpse the beyond".

Perhaps Insider might be converted into a wiki of sorts? A little cross-referencing would make everything more awesome.

Re: Will Outsider get a wiki?

I dunno, I personally would be rather honored to pour my heart and soul into an article and then have Word of God come along in its place.

Maybe I'm weird.

EDIT: Also, Insider is quite awesome, but could certainly stand a bit more cross-reference.

EDIT 2: The wiki should cite its sources.

I really don't know how all this works, or which rulebooks to get... I'd love to do this, but I kinda need a little help I think.

Gah, is there a way to subscribe to a thread and get emails when people post? I'm so bad at knowing how often to revisit threads.

hi hi So they decide to eliminate war by waging the biggest war ever... Must be a calculus thing, cause to me that doesn't add up. :P The implication that humanity is not, or will never be capable of self governance is one of those recurring themes that pops up in a lot of places these days, much t...

Re: Outsider RP

Is it too late to get in on any of this? I would absolutely love to get in on this.

Are any campaigns still accepting players? Any using GURPS maybe even?

I love RP I just don't know how this would work.

I think these 'freakishly gifted' ones are called Unsheatheds. Or however the heck you pluralize that.

Re: Uncanny resemblance.

Nnnot what I meant. I'm talking about the plot at its most basic level, 'Officer X does Fleet Action Y' or 'Polity X enacts Measure Y' for example, not literally removing your characters for a permanent time. If X can be swapped out for X sub 1, your story holds water because it doesn't rely just o...

Re: Uncanny resemblance.

Slight deviation from topic (related via Syreen):

I find it completely awesome that you also like Star Control II, Arioch. If your awesomeness level was otherwise at infinity, well, this is infinity plus one.

Re: Uncanny resemblance.

My thoughts on that list are twofold:

One: AWESOME I think that's a Loroi up there in the top left

Two: What the heck is an Asgard doing there?

Re: Uncanny resemblance.

To put it another way, take your story, remove all the space elves from it. Insert, say, pale gelatinous space octopi with glowing eyes. Does the story still work? Then the story is on the right track. Designing species is fun, but ultimately, you should be able to copy/paste anything into your plo...

Re: Uncanny resemblance.

I suppose great minds truly do think alike (if I am, in fact, a great mind. You are, clearly, and people tell me I am, though I'm still not sure if I believe them). Still, I am not good with names. Lori sounded vaguely Elven enough to be Elven, but not blatantly obvious... and, frankly, if it's okay...

Uncanny resemblance.

I discovered Outsider only a few days ago, possibly less than a week. What I found was awesome, yet unnerved me to the core. You see, I've been developing my Cemu setting for some time now, years at this point, as a casual hobby. It was basically my D&D high fantasy setting advanced into outer space...

Re: Farsense and Sensibility.

Am I the only one who suspects that the "Far Sensing Device" was just the Loroi being somewhat coy about their psionic abilities?
