Is Neotenic just the morph itself or is it a quality you can apply to other morphs as well? I vaguely recall seeing something like that in one of the books
>>49212054
That synthtaur's gonna fugg that Neotenic.
>>49212164
There's a Social Stigma on Neotenic I believe, but specifically they are a type of morph.
And technically, you can make a cheaper variant of any morph that is already medium sized by applying Reduced Size and Social Stigma (Neotenic) to it - which could indicate the core morph form kept in neoteny.
>>49212361
thank you. I'd like to imagine somewhere on mars there are a bunch of hipsters who have reduced size pods the same way people today try to live in pods.

Only in simulspace, it's a neuter who identifies as female.

Hey, some of you know about rocket science and stuff, right? We even talked about speed in space last thread.
So a point came up on the forum about the idea of infomorphs being useful against borders, because the ship could then do a high speed/g maneuver to deter them or something otherwise unpleasant.
But actually, can it? Assuming the Bulk Carrier uses the same Fusion Rocket the Standard Transport does, which generates .05 gs of thrust as per the book - could it actually cause something unpleasant to a biomorph? A quick google search means you need to put like 5gs of force on a person to render them unconscious. Am I missing something or is that correct that the Fusion Rocket can't generate enough acceleration to cause more than a mild inconvenience to somebody?
Another technical question.
Can you make an immense tin can telephone with the Spindle?
>>49214054
Boarding actions are basically impossible in a hard scifi setting unless your target has been completely disabled. Actually matching speed with a vessel and sending people aboard doesn't work if they have even the slightest inclination to prevent you from doing so.
>>49214252
Neat. Doesn't actually answer the question.
If your autism doesn't allow you to actually work around that, then for the purpose of the hypothetical, assume they did not "board" persay, but instead stowed away on the ship.
>>49214252
That really depends on what the ships are designed to do. If the target has only very low thrust engines for the sake of long range efficiency, for example, they'd be an easy target for a shorter range craft.

HMMMMM
>>49214446
Making no sense there, anon.
>>49214489
I'm agreeing with the point in >>49214414
Or drawing obvious supporting evidence to it, however you want to look at it.
Big, long range ships in the setting use Fusion or Plasma Rockets, which have a much smaller amount of thrust generated over Metallic Hydrogen or Hydrogen/Oxygen -based systems used by LOTVs, your smaller, more localized ships.
>>49212450
Wait -
is this from an actual EP book? It does not look familiar...
>>49214389
>Doesn't actually answer the question.
Yes it does.

>>49213146
I don't get why there's taboo associated with animals or children anymore when basically anyone can sleeve into an animalistic or child-like morph.
>>49214740
Okay, I'll accept then that my original point may have been unclear. The forum post I referenced speaks about "unkind things" to biomorphs by firing the engines and performing maneuvers - which seems to indicate somehow using the acceleration to deter the boarders by affecting them physically.
Even if it was the intention to the read as "yes they can perform maneuvers to evade any ship before it can board", what's your response to >>49214414 >>49214567 ?
>>49214740
Well, can it? Why would some ship designed for deep space operation be capable of high G maneuvering in the first place?
>>49214686
Nope, its from an artists page, I don't think its from anything.
>>49214054
Unless you get lucky and every boarder bangs their head on something when the ship jerks nothing will happen. You could try to give them radiation poisoning with X-rays but that's not likely to do much unless you're getting boarded by flats and the ship is horribly designed.
>>49214780
Its only been about 30-20 years since resleeving has been viable by 10 AF, and less than 15 since its been available to the person on the street. IRL, its been way longer than that since homosexuality was taken off the United State's list of mental illnesses, and its still taboo in large parts of the US.
>>49214054
Completely ignore that table. Those numbers are completely arbitrary. That being said, except for military vehicles and couriers where they don't give a fuck about efficiency, thrust will be minimal, since the higher the thrust, the lower the specific impulse.

It's worth remembering that "Social Stigma" isn't necessarily everyone going "euwwww, gross", but that such a viewpoint is still common enough to cause problems for the player character. You'll inevitably find places where people just shrug their shoulders, and other places where it's a community wide taboo, and everything in between.

So continuing from last thread, has anyone had their GM pull them into their magical realm while playing EP?
