CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Does that mean Kvothe will not be in the promo pack, but rather it will be Drake? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Yup! sonvar: @gtgchristopher will what happened with Guise and Scholar be explained at all since they show up together on a few different cards? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar Yes. sonvar: @gtgchristopher will Guise be getting another promo card through the KS? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar Possibly! Depends on YOU! animusmaelstrom: @Gtgchristopher any chance GTG will have official games support at other conventions that the GTG crew cannot get to? GTGChristopher: @Animusmaelstrom We're working on a plan for exactly that! CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Continuing with promos for a bit. I take it there will be a minimum of at least 10 new promos? 5 for the news heroes, 3 for Sky-Scraper and 1 each for Parse and Omnitron-U? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway There is potential for a LOT of promos. evildicemonkey: So promos as stretch goals? GTGChristopher: @Evildicemonkey Yup! And more! bessyrocks12: @Gtgchristopher There has been quite a bit of talk about Apostate on the forums lately, will that storyline intertwine with OblivAeon? GTGChristopher: @Bessyrocks12 Not really, but there is more to tell there. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Is Thiago the new Ra? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway I cannot tell you who the Ra in Tactics is yet. LevelUpLeo: @Gtgchristopher Is the full case for the game a stretch goal, a backer only reward, or will it be available on its own? GTGChristopher: @Levelupleo It's going to be a purchasable product as part of the Kickstarter. sonvar: @Gtgchristopher is there any plans for a comic with this KS? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar Depends on YOU! sonvar: @gtgchristopher Outside of the Scholar is there any other team ups that Guise regularly had? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar He shows up with The Wraith at least once! sonvar: @gtgchristopher how much will the KS tell us about new gameplay mechanics in OblivAeon? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar Initially, at least some, with more revealed over the course of the campaign in story/mechanics updates. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Has The Visionary given you any insight on how well OblivAeon will do on Kickstarter? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Nope! relinquishedmemories: you got past work i could look at? GTGChristopher: @Relinquishedmemories If you want to see more of Adam's work, look up anything Sentinels of the Multiverse related. That's ALL his art. Before that? Very little is available online. bessyrocks12: @Gtgchristopher Just saw the posting for the Fandible Podcast, is that the one from the forums that has been worked on for a while? Also, how much input did you have in that? GTGChristopher: @Bessyrocks12 I had no imput or anything with that. They got an advanced alpha copy of the game to run it. There will be a lot of changes to the game from the point they saw it, but it still seemed to go pretty well for them! Migrantp: @gtgchristopher GTG/DHMG has a coffee game and a beer game. Thoughts on a whiskey game? GTGChristopher: @Migrantp I'd love to make one. I've had thoughts, but superheroes are taking up most of my time these days. That and traitorous auto-mechanics. sonvar: @gtgchristopher any thoughts of using the mechanics in SotM towards a different game GTGChristopher: @Sonvar I'm not against it. More on that in the future, to be certain. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher What are the other Maerynian refugees up to these days? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Lots of art, interestingly. Migrantp: @gtgchristopher will mr fixer appear in Traitor Mechanic? GTGChristopher: @Migrantp Unlikely. But possibly! relinquishedmemories: So he or, well your a artist for games. Neat GTGChristopher: @Relinquishedmemories Adam is the artist. I write the games. And answer questions in the chat. ComradeBubbles: How do people get to, and from, the Block? Is there a fixed portal? Or is it a teleport kind of thing? GTGChristopher: @Comradebubbles Lots of portals! They have portal tech, but it's not 100% reliable. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher If I recall correctly, Tempest was the only one to start being aggressive after landing on Earth. Was he always more aggressive than most Maerynians or was it something else? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Tempest was more aggressive as a direct result of being captured from Voss and then escaping. A narrow escape from being genetically reprogrammed would make anyone a bit more dangerous. ComradeBubbles: Do any of the heroes wish they were doing something else? GTGChristopher: @Comradebubbles Mister Fixer at many times in his life, to be certain. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Are Virtuoso of the Voids born with innate musical talent or are they picked because of their musical talent? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway They have all been master musicians, all of whom were born with at least a shred of talent. But they've also worked in perfecting their mastery. morph1470: @Gtgchristopher what games do you enjoy playing that have not come thru GTG. GTGChristopher: @Morph1470 Ugh, that's a LONG list. Things I've played in the last month and enjoyed: Pandemic Legacy, Machi Koro, and D&D 5th Edition. skyrider19: *who is your character GTGChristopher: @Skyrider19 It may surprise you (not at all) to learn that I am the DM. Estelindis: How do you like 5th ed? GTGChristopher: @Estelindis I like it a bunch. Best incarnation of D&D so far. Advantage is fantastic. grysqrl: @Gtgchristopher Do virtuosos of the void have a connection to previous virtuosos? Can they communicate, inherit memories, etc? And yes, I've been re-watching old Avatar episodes lately. GTGChristopher: @Grysqrl Yes, they definitely do. Though not directly. But there is certainly a connection. relinquishedmemories: would it be better to get the card game or get the online game people people mentioned in chat? GTGChristopher: @Relinquishedmemories Both good for similar different reasons. I have a slight preference for the physical card game, but that's just me. XiphonIII: I prefer Numenera and MHR to tell the truth GTGChristopher: @Xiphoniii VERY good choices! CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Is the incap art of Super Scientific Tachyon the reason she has to wear Shock Dampeners in Sentinel Tactics? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Nope! But good eye! bobbertoriley: @gtgchristopher for the GTG staff, who is their favorite hero to play in a game of Sentinels? GTGChristopher: @Bobbertoriley That's a tough one. I certainly don't have one. Not sure about anyone else - it probably changes a bunch. skyrider19: Alright Chris, if you weren't being the DM, what race/class would you want to play? GTGChristopher: @Skyrider19 Pretty much anything. I care more about the story of the character that I play than the stats - anything can be interesting. morph1470: stretch goal: new art for all the hero character cards GTGChristopher: @Morph1470 That's exactly what the complete promo pack is for. It won't have all the standard character cards, but all of the variants, at least. XiphonIII: @Gtgchristopher Now that we know you're usually a GM, will you be supplying GM advice in the RPG core book? GTGChristopher: @Xiphoniii GM advice in the SC:RPG book will come from both myself and Phil, who is a GMing badass. Bunston_: Stretch goal: All further money will be saved for more Spirit Island Expansions GTGChristopher: @Bunston_ Man, that would be great as well! mrlerobot: Seriously though, it would be cool to have the standard heroes on foil cards, no? GTGChristopher: @Mrlerobot Wait until you see our plans for the Foil pack... sonvar: @gtgchristopher are there rules that had to be ironed out for the video game you didn't expect? If so what were some of them? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar Lots of those! Check out the "fireside chats" that John from Handelabra posts on the forum. HandelabraGames: @Sonvar we keep a running document of "rules questions" that we constantly png Christopher with CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Beside Expatriette, is there any other hero that Citizen Dawn deslikes? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Has disdain for anyone without powers. Has no respect for powerful character who don't do "anything worthwhile" with their powers, as they're wasting their potential. sonvar: @gtgchristopher I'm one the alpha testers for Mega Computer I just wanted to know if any surprised you GTGChristopher: @Sonvar Hah, I don't know that any of them actually surprised me. Since the video game has started, I'll often write a card and then think "Oh, man. They're going to HATE this." CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher How many heroes did it take to defeat Iron Legacy? We know at least Legacy and Young Legacy were invovled DWSetback: And Haka and Mainstay... GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway @Dwsetback At least two different hero teams in essentially two waves. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Outside of Iron Legacy, Progeny, and OblivAeon. Is there a single character that is far more powerful than the majority? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Hmmm, that's tough. GloomWeaver has a lot of power, but accessing it is the issue. The Dreamer's power is hard to measure LevelUpLeo: @Gtgchristopher Is there an origin or deeper connection to M.M.F.F.C.C., or is it just a mysterious carnival? GTGChristopher: @Levelupleo A CREEPY mysterious carnival that is the creation and home base of one of the villains! Bunston_: @Gtgchristopher Excluding Progeny, Iron Legacy, and any villains we haven't seen yet, which villain from SotM do you think would wreck the most havoc if it suddenly appeared in the real world? GTGChristopher: @Bunston_ In this world? Omnitron. ComradeBubbles: How does Expatriette test her special ammunition in the design phase? To make sure it doesn't break her guns etc. GTGChristopher: @Comradebubbles Shooting stuff. Using cheaper guns. Buys more of it than she makes. grysqrl: @Gtgchristopher Follow-up to @LevelUpLeo's question. Has the Dreamer been to the carnival? GTGChristopher: @Grysqrl Depends on what you mean by "[b]een to" ComradeBubbles: Follow up question, has anyone tried taking out her supplier to weaken her? GTGChristopher: @Comradebubbles Certainly! Though she certainly has more than one. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Are the members of The Sentinels weaker than other heroes or is the reason of putting them together purely because they rarely fight without the others? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway They are not much on their own, but they are growing in power. Pseudonymtwitch: How many penstrokes does adam make on average for a character card? GTGChristopher: @Pseudonymtwitch SO MANY Bunston_: @Gtgchristopher In the world of SotM, why are the villains usually stronger than the heroes? That is, why isit more likely that multiple heroes are needed to take down one villain than the other way around? GTGChristopher: @Bunston_ Most of the villains have some sort of plot that they're enacting and the heroes are reacting. You're not just fighting them as a person, but also their stuff, minions, etc. Additionally, the conflicts you're playing in the card game are the big culminating fights - not the usual minor villains but the major cross-over events. xTheKillswitch: @Gtgchristopher So, about Parse's incap art. Any hints as to what's hidden in the code, besides ObliVaeon's name in leet speak? GTGChristopher: @Xthekillswitch The big thing is OblivAeon's name. She sees OblivAeon in the code - the same code that "upgraded" her. This incapacitates her, leaving her in a fugue state, of sorts. (We're just really pleased with ourselves that OblivAeon's name was in the game for so long without getting noticed.) CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Speaking of Minions. Are Citizens and similar actually weaker than most heroes and villains or is it purely a mechanic thing? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Most Citizens are not of the same power/ability level as heroes. grysqrl: @Bunston_ I imagine that it might also stem from the fact that most of the villains are willing to / intent on creating collateral damage while the heroes want to avoid it. It's harder to be careful. GTGChristopher: @Grysqrl That's one of the reasons that Megalopolis is such a rough environment. bessyrocks12: The Time-Crazed Prisoner wasn't as crazy as we all though GTGChristopher: @Bessyrocks12 Still crazy. Not wrong. ComradeBubbles: Do any of the non-flying/non-speedster heroes have personal/hero team vehicles? GTGChristopher: @Comradebubbles Like the Freedom Jet? Or the Dark Watch Cycle? Or the Prime Hang Glider? The Wraith has a helicopter. (As seen in Freedom Four Annual #1!) CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher What would happen to Guise if he was struck by Baron Blade's Regression Darts? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway He'd still be the coolest ever, but less purple. bessyrocks12: @Gtgchristopher Is there anyone from the office that will be incorporated into the art of OblivAeon? GTGChristopher: @Bessyrocks12 Nope. DerpTheBugbear: @Gtgchristopher were there ever any ideas for any heroes or villains that you guys had that were scrapped and will never see the light of day in card game form? If so, I think it would be awesome to hear about "what could have been!" GTGChristopher: @Derpthebugbear If they didn't show up in the card game and they don't show up in the RPG, they probably need to stay on the cutting room floor. DomanRyler: @GTGChristopher Are we going to see full comics produced regularly in a few years or nah? Because I would so buy that GTGChristopher: @Domanryler Adam and I would love to do that and talk about it pretty much every week. sonvar: @gtgchristopher any thoughts to posting your own strategies with hero decks or do you like the ones the community has posted so far? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar I have no interest in sharing my own strategies - this game is all about how you Sentinels save the Multiverse. theshypinkiepie: Have you ever put a fan theory into canon? GTGChristopher: @Theshypinkiepie Not intentionally. Some fan theories have ended up correct, though. Bunston_: @Gtgchristopher So obviously Sentinels has boatloads, nay, yachtloads of references to other super hero stories. Where do you think the line between paying homage to/referencing and ripping something off lies? Do you think there is a line? GTGChristopher: @Bunston_ There's definitely a line. Sentinels has always been both our love letter to comics in general, but also a "this is how we wish things were" sort of thing. We pay homage, but we strive to be consistently original, as well. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Does the Ancient Library actually get destroyed in The Final Wasteland? If so, where does Haka live after that? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Nothing ever lasts forever. sonvar: @gtgchristopher do any heroes have a catch phrase? If so, which heroes and what is their phrase? GTGChristopher: Legacy definitely says a lot of America things. The only specific catch phrase belongs to someone who is not a hero: "All aboard! The Fright Train's a coming!" ComradeBubbles: @GtGChristopher, how was Spite caught before he was super-powered? Just regular old police-work? GTGChristopher: @Comradebubbles Yup, though The Wraith was involved as well. ComradeBubbles: @GtGChristopher, how was Spite caught before he was super-powered? Just regular old police-work? GTGChristopher: @Comradebubbles Yup, though The Wraith was involved as well. DomanRyler: @Gtgchristopher why is The Wraith and Spite nemeses? I hypothesized that he was one of her attackers before she was the Wraith. is it because she caught him? GTGChristopher: @Domanryler Spite was not one of the attackers who incapacitated Maia before she became The Wraith. He's not that sloppy and isn't known for leaving survivors. He's a serial killer who preyed on Rook City. She's a vigilante who protects the people of Rook City. Their enmity was inevitable. bessyrocks12: @Gtgchristopher Is Spite the darkest character you have created? Biomancer is also up there for me GTGChristopher: @Bessyrocks12 Yeah, those two are pretty high up there. The Dreamer has some dark implications, as well. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Are there any heroes and villains that would actually get along if they weren't on opposing sides? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway They're on "different sides" as you put it because they have vastly different view points. Ah, with the exception of Deadline. paulwatson1974: GTGChristopher What price does Freedom 6 Wraith pay to get the subtitle "PRice of Freedom"? Her principles in taking over the Organization? GTGChristopher: @Paulwatson1974 She becomes what she hates most in order to get the power necessary to fight Iron Legacy. DerpTheBugbear: @Cursedronway I always took proletariat vs absolute zero's rivalry as one that could have ended up as a friendship if not for extrenuating circumstances GTGChristopher: @Derpthebugbear That's a good point. Proletariat has been manipulated to the point that he will oppose the heroes, but his story could have taken a very different direction. Sonicblade95: Infinitor is probably in that group since he's not trying to be evil, his powers are just driving him insane and going out of control GTGChristopher: @Sonicblade95 Nigel isn't a bad guy, but Infinitor almost necessarily is. sonvar: @gtgchristopher Is Proletariat one of the new heroes in OblivAeon? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar No. DomanRyler: @Gtgchristopher wouldnt Proletariat have a general disdain for Legacy though anyway? America v. USSR? GTGChristopher: @Domanryler he probably could have been convinced to be less of a villain, but he would always be at least a little suspicious of Legacy. But Tempest and Sky-Scraper are allies if not friends. xTheKillswitch: @Gtgchristopher Are the final five heroes ones we've seen before, or completely new characters? (sorry, forgot the tag) GTGChristopher: @Xthekillswitch You have seen them all before, one way or another. arenson9: Apologies if this has already been asked, but when NightMist brings the various universes together, does it bring any villainous versions of people that we think of as heroes with it? GTGChristopher: @Arenson9 It certainly could! She's pretty good at filtering, though. She's not just indiscriminately opening doors. morph1470: @Gtgchristopher where does infinitor power come from? doesnt it come from the cosmic entity as well or is he just hearing the voices of the cosmic entity GTGChristopher: @Morph1470 Power from the Oblivion Shard. Insanity from the voices. sonvar: @gtgchristopher who was Heartbreaker originally? I'm really hoping it isn't Tony Taurus GTGChristopher: @Sonvar I cannot answer that question right now. Or rather, I will not. Sorry! arenson9: I'm imagining a version of Parse that turned to computer crime ... GTGChristopher: @Arenson9 Hacker Parse! She steals your identity! DerpTheBugbear: @Gtgchristopher I'm sure this is asking for too much info, but I still gotta ask. Will the RPG be letting us make our own characters? Or is it an RPG where you play as one of the SotM characters? I think there was an old Marvel RPG that had you play as specific characters... It was still surprisingly enjoyable... I'd love it either way. I'm just curious. GTGChristopher: @Derpthebugbear There will definitely be character creation in the Sentinel Comics RPG. I am unwilling to make that product without character creation. evildicemonkey: Can you tell us the name of the hero that Nightmist "replaced" when Lanius joined your merry band? Or was Nightmist always the name and mechanics rather than story was incorporated from him? GTGChristopher: @Evildicemonkey You're on the right track. arenson9: Does Beacon have a boyfriend? GTGChristopher: @Arenson9 Yup theshypinkiepie: @GTGChristopher Why did Beacon change her name to Beacon? I mean I understand not wanting to be Legacy while her father is still alive.. but is there another reason? GTGChristopher: @Theshypinkiepie There's always been one Legacy in operation. It's highly uncommon for two super heroes from the Parsons line to be active at the same time. As long as her father still holds the "Legacy" mantle, she's going to be Beacon, but she knows that some day, she will be Legacy. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher You said earlier that Spite isn't know for leaving people alive. Does that mean every victim in his deck is dead? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway ALMOST every one. arenson9: Aha. And is this someone you're willing to tell us about? Is it serious? Is Beacon going to be staying away from Zika anytime soon? GTGChristopher: @Arenson9 Nope. Maybe? Nope. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher I've asked bunches of question that did not mention Cursed Acolyte, how excited does that make you? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Mostly, I'm impressed. bobbertoriley: @Gtgchristopher will the kickstarter on tuesday announce the new heroes, or will be finding that out closer to the release? GTGChristopher: @Bobbertoriley At least some! sonvar: @gtgchristopher will Guise run an AMA during the KS campaign? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar Maybe! CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher How many heroes witnessed NightMist banish Voss? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway At least 3. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Are you willing to share who those 3 heroes are? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway (I'll bet you can guess.) sonvar: @gtgchristopher was there a specific act that Voss did to prompt being banished to the Mists or was it just the general fact he was trying to conquer the planet? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar He was a terrible foe who NightMist was having a hard time coming up with how to deal with otherwise. arenson9: @Gtgchristopher How do Tempest's people procreate? Do they have sexes? genders? GTGChristopher: @Arenson9 That's a very personal question. theshypinkiepie: @Gtgchristopher I'm assuming the other members of dark watch? GTGChristopher: @Theshypinkiepie Good job! arenson9: @Gtgchristopher OK ... Who is the time crazed prisoner? Is there more than one? GTGChristopher: @Arenson9 There are lots of time crazed prisoners - we saw just one of them in that art. DerpTheBugbear: @Arenson9 @Gtgchristopher another question could be, is the identity of the time crazed prisoner even important to any of the story? GTGChristopher: @Derpthebugbear It's surely important to someone. Everyone's identity is important to someone. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher We can see villains like Fright Train, Apostate, and Set in The Block. Are any of them still there? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway A few villains are certainly still in The Block. arenson9: @Gtgchristopher Why does The Scholar live in Alaska? GTGChristopher: @Arenson9 That's where he's from! CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Are there any heroes that can out bake Haka? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Outbake in general? No, but Legacy is quite handy at the BBQ grill, and Setback's cookies are always AMAZING. (Often, amazingly bad.) bessyrocks12: @Gtgchristopher Other than the number, is there anything you would tell us about the environments that may be part of the OblivAeon? GTGChristopher: @Bessyrocks12 They're places! XiphonIII: So does Scholar NOT live in Florida, then? Because I distinctly recall him living on a houseboat in Florida GTGChristopher: @Xiphoniii The Scholar lives and has lived all over. He's from Alaska but has also spent a lot of time in Florida. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Are there any heroes that team up more frequently than others, but do not have a team name? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Sure! Ra and Fanatic used to hang out a bunch. And Unity, The Wraith, K.N.Y.F.E. and Sky-Scraper have had a few interesting team-ups. sonvar: @gtgchristopher is Guise capable of teleportation like Ambush Bug so that he can just suddenly appear with the heroes to save the day when they don't expect it? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar He's more of a shapeshifter. evildicemonkey: Hmmm, do we have any villain team names? Vengeful Five... any others? grysqrl: The Ennead GTGChristopher: Slaughterhouse Six theshypinkiepie: For Profit GTGChristopher: The Cult of Gloom. Sonicblade95: Citizens of the Sun CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher How does Citizen Dawn feel about Ambuscade? He had powers for a little while, but lost them. At the same time, they both can probably speak French! GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway She thinks he is a waste, in many ways. evildicemonkey: @GTGChristopher What machine is Becky about to blow up on Sgt Steel's incap? Is it why she is disfigured in Tactics? GTGChristopher: @Evildicemonkey That's a huge bomb! She never sets a failsafe or a way to disarm a bomb - why would you want to disarm a bomb? CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher How many times has The Operative went to Zhu Long? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway At least 3 notable times. Bunston_: When Adam draws these, is he working from a sketch he did earlier, or is it going straight from his mind to the screen? GTGChristopher: @Bunston_ The character concepts are from sketches and previous work, but he's drawing them right out of his mind, not necessarily looking at any previous references. arenson9: @Gtgchristopher Why did Chokepoint attack Ft. Adamant? Was that covered somewhere that I've missed/forgotten? GTGChristopher: @Arenson9 She must have had some reason for being there. Hmm... CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Is it required for the tattoos to be placed of where the mortal wound occured? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Yes, but not always in a physical way as much as a... spiritual way, let's say. evildicemonkey: Are there any other dragons around? Or is Zhu Long alone? GTGChristopher: @Evildicemonkey Zhu Long is not alone. There are no more dragons. ComradeBubbles: How does Biomancer replicate super-powers for his Fleshchildren? GTGChristopher: @Comradebubbles Ancient flesh-magics. evildicemonkey: So is he a dragon of legend or an alien who happens to look like a dragon, or both? (or other) GTGChristopher: @Evildicemonkey Dragon. Human? Mostly dragon. arenson9: @Gtgchristopher Where did The Scholar get his magic stone? Is it magic? GTGChristopher: @Arenson9 That's the alchemist's stone that he made. GTGChristopher: @Arenson9 Sort of. Raccoonoo: @Gtgchristopher Will Madame Mittermeier ever actually appear in the story? GTGChristopher: @Raccoonoo She already has! CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Aside from The Operative and Mister Fixer, are there any other notable people that have been brought back by Zhu Long? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Yes. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Care to share some names? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Sharing is caring! But it's also telling. arenson9: @Gtgchristopher How old is The Scholar? When was he born? GTGChristopher: @Arenson9 He's in his forties or fifties. Hard to say how long he's been that age. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher How about this, does anyone else have the dragon tattoo visible? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Not that we've seen. DerpTheBugbear: @Gtgchristopher please tell me there's 11 other ancient martial arts masters who have "true forms" like Zhu-Long, and that they are representative of the chinese zodiac, that would be kinda cool to know there are 11 other people out there who are at least somewhat on the same level as Zhu-Long. (I mean, that's how it will always be in my head canon either way.) GTGChristopher: @Derpthebugbear I cannot speak to that. arenson9: @Gtgchristopher Beyond SotM, Tactics, and Sentinels RPG, when will we see the Sentinels characters again? Got plans for other games ... you're willing to talk about? GTGChristopher: @Arenson9 There could certainly be other games, but I'm going to keep that quiet for now. evildicemonkey: How fast can Tachyon run? We have a card named Lightspeed Barrage, is that just hyperbole? GTGChristopher: @Evildicemonkey It's a little hyperbolic. She doesn't really have limits on her speed, other than what kills her. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Is it true that Haka has unknowingly defeated Ambuscade thanks to comical high jinx? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Yes. ComradeBubbles: @GtGChristopher, How does she cope with the G-Force involved in running that fast? GTGChristopher: @Comradebubbles She wears tech to monitor and deal with that very thing. Bunston_: I can't quote any sources, but I'm pretty sure that if anybody on earth was actually moving at the speed of light very bad things would happen GTGChristopher: @Bunston_ Check out what XKCD has to say about that. Raccoonoo: @Gtgchristopher Will "The Host" mentioned in Apostate's bio appear in OblivAeon? Or have they appeared already? GTGChristopher: @Raccoonoo There has been some appearance of "The Host" already, but not in a noticeable way. There won't be more reveals on that in OblivAeon. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Which heroes dislike working with Guise or Setback? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway OH MAN. That's a helluva list. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Are Guise and Setback on each other's list? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Almost definitely. ComradeBubbles: @GtGChristopher, are there any heroes that actively seek out those two to work with? GTGChristopher: @Comradebubbles Expatriette. DomanRyler: @Gtgchristopher Will there be any more new hero teams? GTGChristopher: @Domanryler In the RPG there definitely will. DerpTheBugbear: @Gtgchristopher OH, we need another comic relief character so we can have a 3 hero game with guise and setback. Maybe against Kaargra Warfang in her arena... the comic that goes along with it would have a spoof name, called "The Funny Games" GTGChristopher: @Derpthebugbear Unity? sonvar: @gtgchristopher Have you ever watched JourneyQuest? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar Nope. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Has Unity created a bot version of every hero? Which heroes were least amused of their bot counterpart? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Nope, she's a F5 fangirl. DomanRyler: @Gtgchristopher is Termi-Nation a Team, Subteam, or event based cooperation between the 3? GTGChristopher: Event base cooperation, essentially. But certainly a temporary team, at the least. DerpTheBugbear: @Gtgchristopher but not one with a team name? GTGChristopher: @Derpthebugbear Termi-Nation is a story arc, not a team name. evildicemonkey: @GTGChristopher Which Sentinels character has been "the Wolverine" and been on the most super teams simultaneously? GTGChristopher: @Evildicemonkey Probably The Wraith. Estelindis: Yeah, I feel like the Wraith is kind of an honourary member of Dark Watch. GTGChristopher: @Estelindis That's essentially true. She helps them out a bunch. She's also appeared in comics featuring the Southwest Sentinels. theshypinkiepie: Wait the Southwest Sentinels is an actual team? GTGChristopher: @Theshypinkiepie Definitely. sonvar: @gtgchristopher did the Wraith get any training from Mister Fixer? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar They've worked together, so she's certainly learned things from him, but she's a different sort of style. DerpTheBugbear: if southwest sentinels is a team name that encompasses more than just the 4 sentinels, then I wonder who else has been on that team. Wasn't Guise quoted in one of the Southwest Sentinels issues? GTGChristopher: Southwest Sentinels is just 4 people. DerpTheBugbear: @Gtgchristopher So "The Sentinels" hero deck just truncated the "Southwest" part off? GTGChristopher: @Derpthebugbear Yep! CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher How does Fanatic feel about the new Ra? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Bitter. evildicemonkey: @GTGChristopher Any podcast interviews lined up for any of the team during the kickstarter? GTGChristopher: Not yet! You'd think the media would have sent their usual e-mails to me after our big announcement! Estelindis: Bitter? Huh. Because she misses the old Ra and wishes there was a way for him to have returned instead of the new one? GTGChristopher: @Estelindis Exactly that. elbow13: @Gtgchristopher I have a question from playing last night! Whose hand is Captain Comic in on his incap art? GTGChristopher: @Elbow13 OblivAeon. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Does the current wielder of the Staff of Ra gain the memories of previous wielders? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway The wielder of the Staff of Ra gets the knowledge, memories, and powers of Ra, but not of previous wielders. Bunston_: @Gtgchristopher Did you have a system or method to help ensure the heroes didn't power creep in each subsequent expansion, or was that mostly dealt with in playtesting? GTGChristopher: @Bunston_ Playtesting! evildicemonkey: @GTGChristopher Is ObllivAeon in Nightmist's deck... Mists of Time I think? GTGChristopher: @Evildicemonkey Heck, I'm being a little nice today. Yes. nosirragessej: Like, does Tactics!Ra remember stuff that Washington!Ra did while in Ra form? GTGChristopher: @Nosirragessej Not really. xTheKillswitch: I'm guessing smokebombs are Christopher's means of dodging questions? GTGChristopher: @Xthekillswitch Just my fancy way of exiting forum discussions after dropping bits of information. DomanRyler: @Gtgchristopher Can Ra(s) switch in and out of Deity-form similar to Shazam's transformations? GTGChristopher: @Domanryler Yup, but with a lot more fire. relinquishedmemories: What type of software and things do you use for your art? GTGChristopher: @Relinquishedmemories Adam is using Manga Studio. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Will we being seeing Ermine and Friction again? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Possibly! DerpTheBugbear: @Gtgchristopher So, in tactics, the Dark Watch's lineup has changed... Has the lineup of any other hero team changed? Are there new hero teams that include previously seen heroes? Has the lineup of the Vengeful Five changed? What about the lineup of the Slaughterhouse Six? GTGChristopher: @Derpthebugbear That is a lot of specific information... all in due time. hesjingixen: @Gtgchristopher any hints about the heroes for Oblivaeon? i only know the one *wink* GTGChristopher: @Hesjingixen They're all cool! relinquishedmemories: do you use art tablet for your work? GTGChristopher: @Relinquishedmemories He has a GIANT tablet monitor he draws on. hesjingixen: @Gtgchristopher Will all heroes have a promo by the end? Curious to see Parse's GTGChristopher: @Hesjingixen Yes. JackSwann: Have you announced numbers of heroes/villains/environments in OblivAeon? GTGChristopher: @Jackswann Nope! hesjingixen: @Gtgchristopher Including the 5 new heroes in Oblivaeon? GTGChristopher: @Hesjingixen We shall see! DerpTheBugbear: @Gtgchristopher OH! How does the rest of the Vengeful Five feel about the rumors that Baron Blade is actually working WITH the heroes? GTGChristopher: @Derpthebugbear Most of the Vengeful Five are rather indisposed. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher When Blake Washington found the Staff of Ra, it was in a tomb. When the new Ra found it, it looked to be in a Museum. Does this mean most other Ras survive long enough to put it back when approaching death? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway The one that Dr. Blake Washington Jr. found had been worshiped by the ancient Egyptians. Not all who touch the Staff of Ra become the avatar of Ra. DomanRyler: @Gtgchristopher Was there any particular inspiration for the inclusion of LGBT characters or characters with a disability in the Multiverse? Or is it "That's how life is, and the Multiverse reflects that?" GTGChristopher: @Domanryler You've got it. Character of all types, just like real life. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher So there are multiple Staves of Ra out there? And any of them could grant the avatar of Ra as long as there currently is not one? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Nope. Just the one. DomanRyler: @Gtgchristopher @Hesjingixen AA is asexual? GTGChristopher: @Domanryler Yup! CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Who is a bigger fan of Dragon Ball Z, you or Adam? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Adam. Unquestionably. evildicemonkey: @GTGChristopher How do the toilet arrangements for Lt Vance and Fright Train differ when in the Bunker suit? Fright Train seems to fill it, Vance seems to sit in a chair. Is there a fly for FT? GTGChristopher: @Evildicemonkey Fright Train has hollowed out the suit and can remove pieces of it. elbow13: @Gtgchristopher Do you guys have any board/card game favorites other then GTG stuff? GTGChristopher: @elbow13 I like a lot of games. I also don't like a lot of games. I mentioned earlier that my recently played non-GTG games have been Pandemic Legacy, Machi Koro, and D&D 5E. Bunston_: @Gtgchristopher What do you think are some of the more important aspects to creating a truly co-op game? GTGChristopher: @Bunston_ Feel. Everyone needs to feel like they're a part of what's going on, and that they are making important decisions and contributing. Additionally, the feel of what you're doing at the table should match the feel of the game. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Expatriette seems like the type that doesn't have an issue with killing. Is this accurate? Does the frequency of her killing people decline after joining Dark Watch? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway That is true, but she's getting better about it. sonvar: @gtgchristopher which heroes don't have issues with killing? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar There's several, but certainly not a majority. Not going to list them now, but that's a good question. (Sorry - a little distracted with writing up Scion decks on my other monitor) CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Who is the poor guy on Fanatic's card "Final Dive"? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway That's not the only place he shows up! DomanRyler: He's also in hostage situation! GTGChristopher: And more! DomanRyler: @Gtgchristopher what is his name, and why is he unluckier then Setback? GTGChristopher: @Domanryler His name is [redacted]. sonvar: @gtgchristopher how much do the heroes trust FILTER? Along with that was there a level of mistrust towards KNYFE when she showed up? GTGChristopher: @Sonvar The heroes distrust F.I.L.T.E.R. a lot. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher How many times has a Paul Parson's looked at their child and said "that power would have been handy?" GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway Hah, yeah, that's definitely happened a few times. DomanRyler: @Gtgchristopher what does F6 Bunker's Locomotion power actually do? Ex: Ra's pyre is a thrown fireball more or less GTGChristopher: @Domanryler Locomotion is using Fright Train's resource (in this case, card in hand) of momentum to rid an opponent of a stance or ability (ongoing card) by crashing into them. xTheKillswitch: @Gtgchristopher Speaking of errors, is it true the new oversized promo spite is missing a line of text? GTGChristopher: @Xthekillswitch Apparently? We're going to fix it and print extras when we reprint those. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Is Iron Legacy's timeline pretty safe from ObvlivAeon for awhile? It sounds like Iron Legacy did exactly what Deadline tried doing in the main timeline GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway No timeline is safe from OblivAeon. DomanRyler: @Gtgchristopher Who is your favorite character to play in SotM? I like playing Omnitron-X because I can just play ALL the things GTGChristopher: @Domanryler I have no favorite - I go through phases of playing a particular character a lot, but I seriously love them all for different reasons. Estelindis: @GTGChristopher So was there no way Deadline could have succeeded? GTGChristopher: @Estelindis Deadline would have succeeded in setting the Earth back far enough that OblivAeon would not have had to fight the heroes of this timeline. That would have been worse. CursedRonway: @Gtgchristopher Is OblivAeon in multiple timelines or is there only one that travels to multiple ones? GTGChristopher: @Cursedronway OblivAeon can be wherever or whenever it wants. evildicemonkey: I guess for confirmationwe need to ask @GTGChristopher, was Deadline trying to "protect" Earth from OblivAeon? GTGChristopher: @Evildicemonkey Deadline was trying to protect Earth from attracting the attention of OblivAeon. He didn't know to what end that attention meant, though. evildicemonkey: @GTGChristopher So were all the planets that the Enclave of the Endlings came from visited by OlivAeon? GTGChristopher: @Evildicemonkey No. They all were the result of extinction events, though. xTheKillswitch: @Gtgchristopher Why didn't Terminarch collect two of each race? Did she not intend to preserve their future offspring? Or was it just for her collection? GTGChristopher: @Xthekillswitch She is only interested in endlings. xTheKillswitch: @Gtgchristopher I meant endlings, sorry. GTGChristopher: @Xthekillswitch Right. Can't be an endling if there are two left. GTGChristopher:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endling DerpTheBugbear: now @Gtgchristopher Make a base power for Mario GTGChristopher: Jump:Power: Mario deals 1 target 2 melee damage. If that target is destroyed, draw a card.
