Futuristic The Deep Dark: A Space-Age, Galactic Freeroam RP

I would give a number for the Rooktan's reaction movements, but I'm not good with translating speed to a measurable number. I'm better at giving in story examples of their speed than the numbers themselves, but they can dodge a punch to the face if they sense it coming in time.
As for the close combat, it truly depends on the arena. Dark cave or human ship, the Dredge will most likely win. However, in a swamp the Rooktan have the advantage, as well as a Rooktan Ship setting. In fact, it would be quite hard for a Dredge to stowaway on a Rooktan ship thanks to the ship being built for Rooktan physiology and psychology. Rooktan ships don't have air ducts like human ships do, mainly because the Rooktan preferring extremely humid environments, so the Dredge can't do a sneak attack that way unless they can fit through pipes several inches wide that recycle the air. Heck, they probably would not even be able to stay on a Rooktan ship long enough to hide thanks to the ship's AI. They monitor everything on the ship to make sure that nothing breaks and that there are no stowaways, so a Dredge that gets on board would probably be ejected into the vacuum of space.
Until the Dredge gets control of the AI. A Malachai would be able to. Bob knows what im talking about.

Nemo might bee able too hehe


But anyways, him being the psionic Alpha of the Klavikans and Coits would be awesome. Can he have that ability? :D

Your assuming a lot about the hackability of the Rooktan AI. I mean, first there is the coding of the AI itself, which was first designed by Rooktan, then redesigned and improved by the AI themselves to ensure that they never have their will taken from them. Then their is their compartmentalization, which ensures that if they ever are hacked, they can cut off the portion that has been and close down any connections to the outside that would allow them to be hacked. Then their is the fact that there are not really any direct connections to their core, so hacking would have to be wireless, which is really easy to just cut off.

Your assuming Dredge use coding like we do. A falsity.

Both of you are assuming a lot of things
 
[QUOTE="Jarkov Malachai]Indeed we are, but tis all we can do thanks to the limited amount of data available to both parties.

Exactly how does a Dredge take over an AI anyway?
 
[QUOTE="Jarkov Malachai]Same way they can take over a host.

[/QUOTE]
So your telling me they can combine with inorganic components with no genome or sustenance they could use to survive? Well, it's not like that threatens the Rooktan AI anyway. The former compartmentalization, as well as the AI core being compleltly sealed off from any remotely accessable part of the ship would prevent that.

Liiku would shit on your.pitiful AI.


So primitive

I said take over the AI, not phase with it.

But you said the same way it takes over a host.

Yeeuup, and Phasing onto a host and taking it over are two very different things. Foremost being a mutualistic relationship whilst the latter being maliciously parasitic.

But how is the process of joining any different?

I could tell you but id be spoiling now wouldn't I? Rest assured its not BS, and only a few Dredge with the right expertise and genes can do it but its possible.
 
I'm pretty sure that we're not going to come to a mutual agreement out of this debate, as no one has the desire to divulge all the secrets of their species at this point. We do have a few extra scraps of info here and there, and if our dear old host undertakes the duty to format it and add it to the canon + your agreement, the results of this will be something more than simply inter-player relation building.


I'm actually slightly interested in the Rooktan AI, in the sense that I would like to be able to pentest an instance pf it. But I assume that its going to destroy my machine the second I get past its DMZ, not to mention being forced to stumble around a sophisticated honeypot before even getting onto the real network.

I'm actually working on a species description of the Rooktan AI right now.

The Liiku have their own AI who would literally laugh at your AI and hack it and kill it


lets not forget they have inter dimensional portals, Mechs almost as good as a damn Dredge and are 4billions years ago
 
Now I do not want to pentest a Liiku AI, which would destroy our network and fry the hardware of every computer in the company, including the corporate mainframe, as I so much attempt to force my way into a honeypot as an unauthorized user. If that happens I'm probably going to get fired and sued the life out of me.

don't worry the Liiku never actually come out in any rps


bur if they do its always after they got their ass beat in the other dimension and are severely weakened
 
I hope everyone realizes bob says that shit all the time but its all for a joke, took me forever to realize that.
