Arcanitech
>Arcanitech is the massive conglomerate of magical technology companies that popped up in the years following Paraply's initial bid for world conquest. Once Paraply was shut down for their power mongering, Ignometics had obtained a monopoly, and was broken down into subcompanies by government anti-trust laws. After Vresch's hostile takeover, whatever was left of the various companies rejoined into the group Arcanitech. They seem to have no clear goal.

Purple it is.

I watch them play out the rest of their game. Rastin is very erratic. He seems to lean towards aggressive, but sometimes does things for reasons I don't really understand.

Roselle plays a slow and steady sort of game. She takes her time, sets up her position, then goes on the offensive.

Rastin loses in short order.

How should I play, orb? Agressively or defensively?

I'm playing Roselle, not Rastin.

I decide to play aggressively, and try to take her out before she can get a good position set up.

Turns out the purple deck is a slower deck. By trying to start aggressively, I weakened my late game position, and just don't have the early power I need to win. We play three games, and I win none of them.

Speaking of actions potentially causing risk, I've been thinking about what sort of summoned armor might provide the best protection and versatility. Some key points I've noticed:

1. Your summons seem to be mainly limited by your imagination and a general mass limit.
2. Summoned creatures can have at least rudimentary intelligence of their own.
3. Even if they look like normal creatures, summons do not have to have physiologies that render them vulnerable to poisons and drugs.
4. For reasons obvious enough that I'm sure you have no need of an explanation, any summons we suggest should be easy to draw.

I suggest starting with a big suit of muscles, chitin plates, and eyes. You'll be blind, so there's no reason not to cover all of your head completely, with a bone grill for breathing through. Give it 2 solid arms of it's own in addition to the hollow arms that fit over yours, and maybe a few tentacles with blades or claws on the end. If your armor looks creepy, you might be be able to scare people off without fighting. If someone's encroaching on your personal space, add spikes.

Y'know, I've been wondering. You told us in the beginning that you are unable to summon anything beyond a certain mass, but that you aren't sure what that mass is. You need to test this. Additionally, you need to train your abilities. Perhaps practice summoning defensive objects (such as steel walls) on reaction. These most recent visits have me quite nervous about your wellbeing.

The whole idea of creating weapons and armor for Coralina to fight with is just no good. She's had no training with moving or using them. After all, it's not like she can't just conjure a cage or something similar around any aggressor.

We also need to have a goal for a creature to summon. I suggest we make it our goal to learn at least enough to summon a Tarrasque. I mean how many summoners can claim they summon the destructive force of godzilla in a CR 30 package.

How does this look? The fibers hold the chitinous plates together, and I can switch which eye I am mindlinked to at almost anytime, so they aren't too much of a weak point. I wasn't sure where to put the spare arms, so I used tentacles instead. The tentacles can have blades or hands on the ends as needed.

>1. Your summons seem to be mainly limited by your imagination and a general mass limit.
Yup.

>2. Summoned creatures can have at least rudimentary intelligence of their own.
No, they don't. They have a direct telepathic link to me, and everything they do is done by me thinking about it. They have no intelligence of their own.

>3. Even if they look like normal creatures, summons do not have to have physiologies that render them vulnerable to poisons and drugs.
Correct.

>The whole idea of Cora fighting herself is no good
Excuse me? I can fight just fine, thank you. Better than that Nic fellow you keep throwing into direct conflict at every opportunity. I just haven't had a chance to show off yet. I lived in Apocalyptia for 6 years or so. There are plenty of threats out there, trust me.

Make sure your armor has some eyes facing backward, upward, and downward. While you can't use them all at once, it would be easier for you to avoid getting surprised if you could rapidly and easily switch perspectives to below, above, and behind you.

Cora was manhandled because Naveen caught her off guard. Naveen managed to hold her down and manhandle her and all that because she is, get this, physically stronger than Coralina is. Cora, initially, did not think Naveen was a threat, nor did she want to hurt Naveen at any point. Well, she entertained the idea, but her logic said that it was a dumb thought.

Cora specifically said she didn't want it here: >>51190
Cora tried to get Naveen off of her here: >>51207
Cora ended up resorting to summoning a gorilla in a tuxedo to get her off here: >>51262

Cora resisted. Had she known she was going to be raped when she walked in, Naveen never would have pinned her. Just because Cora knows how to fight doesn't mean she's all that physically strong. She's a squishy sorceress.

I dig the new battle form. Considering how well it turned out, maybe we should come up with some others. A spider-suit for mobility and optional poisoning? Or a proxy we could send so as to avoid getting into trouble in the first place.

Alternately, since all of this could be taken from Cora if a fight goes badly, maybe she should hit the gym instead. It's no wonder she's a squishy sorceress if Mr. Bananas has done all the heavy lifting for the last five years.

>How would one go about learning how to improve their summons?
It takes... time. And practice. Lots of practice. Trust me, I've improved a lot in these 6 years. The chart here represents roughly the biggest things I could summon at given times. The reason I can't give you an exact amount for the largest thing I can summon is because I don't have any way to measure, and it depends on how tired I am. I can summon bigger things while I'm refreshed and have a clear mind.

>Make sure your armor has some eyes facing backward, upward, and downward.
There were eyes in the back, yes.

>Unless you're great at avoidance I'd suggest bulking up as much as possible.
I'm one of them dexterity based dodgy types, yes. Besides, that is already as bulked up as I can get it. I packed as much extra mass into the density of the chitinous plates as possible.

Ya know a summon of yourself would be a REALLY useful tool for when you come to power. You can make it so both your eyes work in the summon, and you will have a very realistic body double.

To be honest, I had a familiar in mind, rather than a clone. You don't need to deceive anyone - you have important things to do, like pushups, or playing Raiden with Hope. Just tell people you're following another lead.
