Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
But they do have telepathic communications with other species. They can sense them and confirm their sincerity in negotiations. Loroi themselves have an exclusive ability to send and read but they can read non loroi except humans. The human"lotai" prevent telepathic interaction with humans and add ...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
I thought about this problem with a fresh mind and come to some conclusions. Firstly, the original concept is valid, but Jim confused accents places. With the specified communication mechanism, as I wrote earlier, the concept of lies at the Loroi just could not be formed. Instead, it came just the c...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
In this case, the question: Where Loroi get the concept of lies, if they aren't able to lie using Sansai? Why would they give off separately at the mental conversation "that's true", "it's not true," if in a conversation all the same it is clear where the truth, a lie, and where figment? And finall...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
hi hi I think I understand in a way that makes sense now. When a Loroi imagines something, like perhaps an awesome thing that they might, or might not, do in the future, they would generally keep that imagined idea to themselves? It might be culturally uncouth to say: "Hey, I had this cool idea. Li...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
If you're referring to the dialogue about Annie Hall, that was meant to be humorous. Yeah, especially against the background of what we have in front of any artwork is usually mandatory prefix that this product is a figment, and the author does not claim to authenticity and realism of all written /...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
In other words, they are able to understand abstract design and figment, just do not like him and do not know how to use them. But in this case I do not understand such emotions regarding literature / cinema, especially since they have had prolonged contact with other cultures and should be aware o...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
I seem to have lost the thread of discussion. So Loroi understand abstraction / abstract design or not? Simply, if not, to understand, as well as to generate a hypothesis, they cannot by definition - are two sides of one and the same ability that we take roots in evolution rather than in a culture a...

Re: [Fan Fiction]Calm Seas
Not bad. I don't fit in the beta-readers, but one piece of advice: better lines of dialogue to allocate passes above and below and indentions do less, because the monolithic text uncomfortable to read.

Re: A variety questions about ship guns, design and body kit
Loroi used some systems / implants / devices to connect operator directly to computers, or available to them the most - banging on the keys and pull the levers? Do they use at least a basic level of AI to automate the ships gun guidance / operations / provision or is tied all to the operators? As fa...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
What types of Loroi art advanced and how (painting, sculpture, music, songs, literature, etc)?
Whether they borrowed some neighbors cultural elements / phenomena, or they believe these elements are strange, but fun? And if "yes", what and who could borrow?

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
I wonder how Loroi would react, for example, smoking (especially pipe and cigar), or a drunk person? :) What is their dominant style of architecture? "The tower and the toga" or some kind of functionalism? Loroi form their ships something to compensate, or it they have tied up in some kind of cultur...

Since Loroi is also to apply, I ask here. In Loroi/Human hand Railgun battery is integrated with the clip, or inserted separately?
