New Beginning Poll

[Zaleramancer]

Nothing, really..

Mostly because I only play mmos when I have nothing else interesting to do..

And right now I'm reading a webcomic/bouncing around Tvtropes/listening to music/plotting space roleplay..

[Zaleramancer]

Oh, and I'm reading through some rulebooks for GURPS..

[Celadon's Penultimate]

NB Hiatus is canceled.

So says I, teh Penultimate. The End.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

If you say so....

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Did you not read the inscription above???

SO SAYS I.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

yes, yes....so says you.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 Then it's settled.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I've been on a bit of a cyborg kick lately.....might go upgrade myself.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Hehe...that would be interesting.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Bionic arms for Marv...

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Or perhaps a fullmetal suit?

Oops, did I say fullmetal? I meant "full metal"...

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Your idea intrigues me.....

[Celadon's Penultimate]

It should...

[Myself]

Since New Beginning is again on hiatus. I will revive this thread after almost a year of being dead.

ARISE THREAD!

Here is a new question: With New Beginning powers, how would you treat normal humanity?

[Philote]

I probably wouldn't treat them any differently, though it would be annoying having to rescue them all the time

It depends on if the events of New Beginning were taking place or not.

If so, then I would do everything I've done so far in New Beginning.

If not, then I would probably have little to no dealings with them, only coming to Earth to pick up mortal friends and family members, and then occasionally come back here for homesickness' sake, and to take vacations, go on trips, distribute random luck/misfortune and whatnot.

I'd be a fairly minor presence.

[Zaleramancer]

I'd improve the world the best I could.

I'm in a position to do so, simply because I have more of an infrastructure than any of the rest of you. I have an extra-dimensional space with a surface area equivalent of Eurasia; millions of Magic Servants, Homunculi and Golems; Hundreds of thousands of employees, immigrants and refuges; hundreds of clones, doppelgangers, back-ups, partials and automatons all linked to my expanded consciousness; and an exoself that spans many psionic crystals, computer databanks, eldritch energy flows and all of the pre-mentioned bodies.

And a hundred Reapers to top it all off.


I would begin by instigating a subtle trend towards World Peace. With my corp of Seers and Psychics, I can easily spot troubled areas of the future between groups and countries. Disguised diplomats could be sent out to smooth things over, as well as more arcane methods of discouraging violence. I would offer certain services to people for a low cost. Teleportation of goods would reduce the effects of global warming, and if I set things up so that the Teleportation Circle require some type of maintenance I can simply hire those that would be laid off

Healings would also be sold, though costs may be waived to those in economic trouble. I would insure that only fairly serious illnesses, injuries and degenerative conditions would be healed to avoid causing all of the health industry to collapse. Life-Extension treatments, Body-Modification as well as never-fail contraceptives to anyone who wants them, to avoid the whole Abortion issue entirely.

Using my network of people, I could ensure that homeless people get a place to stay (I have plenty of room), as well as smoothing over adoption so that more people get children who need homes.

I'd, of course, use the popular support I'd have by then to pressure the government into accepting Same-Sex Marriage, so we can all move on to more important issues.

Like helping people in third-world countries.

I can easily make sure that everyone gets meals, as well as help set up farms and roads (Enriching the soil and slowly altering the climate patterns to cause slightly more rain without making other places drier.). I'd remove the limitations of healing for places like this, without any health industry, to make sure that everyone was healthy and well. Not to mention I'd have Golems around to protect everyone from any kind of crazy dictator.

Once the various humane issues are dealt with, I can turn to global ones. Simply by offering to sell special filters to car companies that remove most of the pollutants from car exhaust would help. Then donate the money I gain from that to various alternative fuel research groups. Then, I can encourage the various industries to adopt less polluting methods of power by offering up some type of valuable substance. I'm sure there's something they'd want that I can simply conjure up. I can send in green-mages to accelerate the growth of jungles and plants in general to reduce global carbon dioxide levels. Once I've established control over the global weather-systems, I can slowly redirect things to reduce the global temperature to an acceptable level.


And I think that's everything I can think of currently.

[Mik_Hael]

I'd either leave.

slowly subjugate all of existence.

take my place as God's errand boy.

Or just piddle around existence messing with people for the rest of eternity while running a side hands for hire business.

so one of four things.
