>>7002619
pretty sure Onniarch lost it because we were on his case 24/7 out of a yearning for philosophy and innaction

Oh, and please, never post discussion threads or "where's slugquest" threads. I will always inform you if Slug Quest will not be taking place so next time, please, be more patient.

There's no need to shit up /tg/ with quest discussion threads. Multiple quest threads at the same time is bad enough.

The Omniarch conditioned our spawn to follow he who represents SLul-Hugoth and to believe that he does just that. We know he believes only in himself.

Therefore I wish to open our mind to our spawn. I wish to let them see what we've seen and know what we know.

So that they know what stands before them and who REALLY represents Slul-Hugoth.

>>7002672
That could be it.
>>7002682
Request acknowledge. Any other input from anyone else or shall I start posting?

>>7002619
I would just like to clarify, is Tank eaten or has his mind been invaded?
Because if there's no trace of Tank in there (and maybe even if there is), I'd like to Mind Steal like you mentioned was possible Bio.

Focus on any reminants of Tanks mind, try to forge them together to attack the Omniarch from within.

Holy crap I'm in time for the start of one of these...

I don't believe Mind Steal is one of our moves...
And yes, lets try to psychic blast our kids to turn them to us.

>>7002682
This first though.

>>7002710
The body of the Omniarch is controlled by a hivemind that exists within the body. This hivemind is constructed of six individuals:
The Omniarch
The Omniarch
The Omniarch
Liu Xiumin, Human
Shawarma, Finslug
Tank

>>7002619

It is illogical for it to reveal itself. The only reasonable explanation is that Tank (the real Tank) still exists within the body of Omniarch, and is fighting its domination.

This weakens the Omniarch, and gives us an advantage. We should press this advantage - engage the Omniarch in mental combat immediately. Meanwhile, order Fury to try to dominate the hatchlings once again, first by mental powers, and if that proves impossible or doesn't work on some, by killing Omniarch's most fervent new supporters.

>>7002706

Don't do that. Like before, make sure a number of people have gotten behind a plan before you actually go through with it.

Opening our mind to the spawn will just leave us vulnerable to the Omniarch. They're not following him because he's so nice and lovely, they're following him because he's controlling them.

>>7002730
First, lets try to probe the Ominarch's mental defenses - to see if he had his guard up like last time. Then, lets have Fury engage him physically to keep him preoccupied while we try to bring the mind of Tank to the forefront and overtake the Ominarch's mind.

>>7002721
There are no real moves here - there are things you are capable of and things you are not capable of. There's no 'special ability' list. You're free to try anything and see if it works.

On the subject of stealing minds, however, you know that the Omniarch, anyway, is capable of ripping minds out of bodies and combining them with his own.

>>7002730
As I said before Focus on the reminants of Tanks mind and try to empower them to resist The Omnisiah from within. Have Fury assist.

>>7002752
>>7002760
That's two votes.

rolled 3, 3 = 6

WE NEED TO STOP FIGHTING HIM AND SET DOWN GROUND RULES WITH HIM

1. psi powers are allowed but this M.A.D shit is now illegal no fucking way we lose the brood again
2. Psi help can be enlisted from the children but otherwise none else is in on this less we save final blow for fury
3. We fight away from the nest we dont want collateral damadge

>>7002760
>Durr Omnisiah

I mean Omniarch.

>>7002749
>>7002706
I've reconsidered my vote for mind agapism, the baby slugs pose little threat right now. I don't care about winnin them over right now.

"Why are you still pestering my brood Grandchild?"

>>7002775
He is the Omniarch, our current abonmical enemy.

Shush.

Also, I third the mental probing/tank supporting.

WHAT IS A SLUG? A MISERABLE PILE OF GENETIC INFORMATION

>>7002749
They're following him because they are conditioned. Not controlled.

That conditioning is reliant on their devotion to Slul-Hugoth and belief that the Omniarch represents that.

So the plan makes sense and i support it.

>>7002757
Lets Steal Minds guyssss!
Lets Steal Minds.

Instead of asking questions steal its mind to get our answers. We might get TK.

>>7002775
...why the fuck would he agree to any rules?

>>7002749
They're following him because they're only recently born - and he's conditioned them from birth to follow him because they recognize him as the speaker for Slul-Huggoth, not you. So, automatically, they trust the Omniarch more than you. The Omniarch is also more capable of exerting influence over them than you.

In the end, when it comes to your spawn, the Omniarch has more influence over the spawn than you.

So far, the requests seem to lean towards focusing on empowering Tank. I'll go ahead with this, I think - anyone disagree?

>>7002821
Yes, but have Fury back you up in some way.

rolled 2, 5 = 7

>>7002811
THEY ARE MUTUALY BENIFICIAL AND IF HE BELIEVES IN PROTECTING THE BROOD AS MUCH AS BEFORE WHEN FURY KILLED SOME HE WILL DEFINATLY AGREE

>>7002821
Very well. But if the spawn show ANY sign of interfering we need to flood them with the truth.

>>7002821
When we empower Tank, can we have Fury attack to try to throw the Ominarch off balance?

>>7002801
At the end of this fight I want either a psychic Tank or a Telekinetic us, fuck.
So I guess in favour of action I support finding Tank's natural realigious Zeal and calling to him as the voice of Slul-Hugoth.

"Tank... Tank my child, quite the situation you find yoursel in. Mind a helping hand getting out?"

Our hate is MAXIMUM. I thought at the end of the other one we were in a blind rage all ready?

>>7002857
Tank was never the voice of Slul-Hugoth. That was the Omniarch masquerading as Tank after he KILLED AND ATE HIM

>>7002860
Of course we are full of hate. But Tank needs us more than we need to RIP AND TEAR THE MOTHERFUCKING OMNIARCH!

>>7002860
Yeah, HATE empowered reconnaissance of Tank is our action

sage

>>7002821
Oh, if we can RP it nicely for our mental boost/focus/rip, do we get a bonus to success?

I hate to interrupt, but would a drawfag be willing to make a picture of Fury, in all his animal skin-wearing, bone-weapon wielding might? I'd love to see it.

>>7002890
We won' be rip and tearing anyway!

If mind probe fails we try to Steal the Omni mind and get Telekinesis

>>7002857

We're a sociopathic slug-lord who has been betrayed and faces death at the hands of an aberration against nature that's also our grandchild.

There would probably be more rage than implied in this dialogue. That said, contacting Tank is a good idea.

While Tank is definitely a priority here, you understand that your spawn also play a part in this. Your exert your will upon the Omniarch, trying to empower the mind of Tank within the hivemind that exists within that body - however, a portion of your mental strength is also sent amongst your young, projecting the truth into their minds.

You're about to scream your orders at Fury when you see the blood red blur of your grandson soar ahead, roaring with mindless, feral rage as he charges towards the Omniarch - who is beginning to laugh once more, the cruel, sickening sound filling the corners of your mind.

You feel the mind of Tank twitching and shuddering beneath the pressure that you're exerting on it - are you empowering him or just causing him pain? Or is the pain a part of the empowering? Is it worth the risk? Nonetheless, the Omniarch does not care about what you're doing with Tank. It splits its will between telekinesis and telepathy - Fury's spear suddenly shatters and your grandson is thrown off balance, hurtling towards the Omniarch. A gigantic humanoid hand, dedicated to crushing, latches on to the neck of Fury and begins to smash him into the ground, each time bringing a sickening crunch from the writhing loyalist. He does it over. And over. And over.

The telepathy is focused on the spawn, however - and he is putting far more of his mental resources into it than you are. So far, your efforts with Tank are having no effect - but maybe it takes time. Maybe it's worth it? Or perhaps Tank is a waste of time? Nonetheless, that thought doesn't stop the practically mindless Speedspawn rushing towards you, their fangs gaping.

>>7002928
Shit! Everything into the damn revelation-wave. THE TRUTH WILL SET US FREEEEEEE!

Tank won't be able to overpower him even with our help. He needs to die, and we need to give into our biggest strength. Emit hatred. On one point. empower ourselves and rage. Even if only rage and us survive in the end. We can start over. Save him. So far, he's the only one who has proved he is worth it.

>>7002928

We're outmatched. Evidently dividing our strength is a bad idea.

I think there'll be no argument that we have to save Fury. We also know the Omniarch outmatches us mentally (as proved in our previous encounter) - but not physically.

Launch ourselves at the Omniarch. Attack with full force, harnessing our berserk rage. Free Fury.

>>7002928
Oh shit...

MORE POWER TO TANK! FIGHT IT AT THE SOURCE!

>>7002971
You can say:

MY TANK IS FIGHT!

>>7002968
Second freeing Fury and this plan.

>>7002928
Okay shit, I'm the one who suggested the Mind Steal idea, and although its probuably our best offense, I'm feeling a re-emergence of Tank coming on, so we persist and also flood children with the enlightenment as previously mentioned.
Enlightenment for all.

>>7002860
Goddamnit, stfu. I think we have tactics than chanting the word hate over and over again on the internet.

>>7002971
One vote for empowering Tank.
Two votes for attacking the Omniarch head-on.
One vote for turning the minds of your spawn.

>>7002971
>>7002968
We're about to be swarmed... we need to deal without before we can try to save either of them.

We need to put everything into that truth signal.

>>7002928
OK! Lay the smack down on the speed spawn, focus on ripping One of the Omniarch parts of the hive mind into shreds. If you can drop kick the motherfucker.

>>7003007
I vote for spawn turning.

Seriously if we're not persisting in Tank Search then MIND STEAL NOW... Give it a try damn it its not so much a deviation from Mind Blast. Omniarch could do it easily.

>>7003021
Dropkick the Omniarch, crush the mind of the Omniarch.

>>7003007

Agreed. Keep the spawn from zerg-rushing us first, then try to help Fury.

>>7003007
I also vote, for turning minds of our spawn.

It seems like the most logical course of action.

>>7003007
Since the Ominarch has more mental power devoted to controlling our spawn, it would be unwise to contest him in that currently. I still think that we should attempt to attack him mentally, as if we can succeed we can free Fury.

There is also the chance we can attack him physically, while his attention is divided between attacking Fury and controlling our spawn.

Either way, we are going to be physically impeded by our own spawn.

So far, votes seem quite split between empowering Tank and saving Fury - so I'm thinking of doing both of those.

You folks okay with that?

Slug has stated several times we are stuck with the powers that we've trained, we're not suddenly going to be better at "mind battle" simply because we want/need to be right now.

Go with our strengths, outright attack him while screaming hate, make him focus on us while emmitting hate for him.

We could also remind Fury of his own innate Telekinetic ability, psychically ofc.
Like that time with the Bear.

dudes!
fuck tank, he's gone bro's!

HE'S GONE!


Save Fury and kick some goddamn ass. Battle the Omniarch with our bare hands/claws/appendages.

RIP AN TEAR

Fury can watch our backs, once the Omniarch is dead our spawn will regain their loyalty as they will no longer be dominated.

If we get this wrong, Fury will die. The Omniarch is already showing that he has no problems suppressing Tank, telekinetically laying the smackdown on Fury, and spurring the Spawn against us.

Can we really 'truth-flood' the Spawn back to our side without A) Omniarch killing Fury, B) Omniarch blocking/overriding our truth-signal, or C) Omniarch telekinetically raping us while we're busy not defending ourselves.

Truth-flood/spawn-control is a bad idea at this point. I'm with the physical attack plan.

Attack The Omniarch, physically and mentally.

>>7003058
Noooo! We need to empower the spawn!

Wait...Empower the human!

Whoa. Okay.

Recently, votes seem to have diverted between all three of the main fronts.
Fury.
Tank.
Spawn.

With so many different opinions, it's difficult to go with one - so do you folks mind if I try to split between all three?

>>7003058
"Tank, my son. I feel you struggling. Now, feel my rage, feel my hate, feel the burn of the mighty will of Slug-Hugoth, flowing through me, to you. Take the power, my son, resist the hold of the Usurper and FIGHT BACK."

>>7003098
We need a vote... I'm still with Tank/Fury.

>>7003098
don't spread us so thin that we don't accomplish anything


This is just one big-ass snake, we need to chop it's head (the omniarch) off already.

ENUFF MUKKIN' ABOUT BOYZ

>>7003098
Do it if you must, but Crushing the Omniarch's mind and freeing Fury are more important.

I'm with the saving fury idea.

>>7003098
Whatever we do I think we need to focus, not split our efforts.

So while my vote is still for Spawn converting i think we need to pick one of the three and focus on it. Random selection may be in order.

>>7003098

Don't spread us, the last post showed the results of trying to do too much at once. Omniarch outmatches us - we have to pick one achievable objective and go for it.

Ugh. Change of plan, then, looking at all of this information.
- Physically attack the Omniarch
- Divert more power to controlling the spawn.
- Divert less power to empowering Tank.

You guys okay with this?

>>7003099
I put a vote towards anything that will give us an overall focus at either saving Fury or Tank, dont care about the spawn.

>>7003098
Tank.

>>7003145
Dude, don't keep changing the plan, we'll just talk in circles. Just go for it.

>>7003145
I don't much like being spread thin, but everyone seems to be split pretty badly. Could you just randomly choose one? They're all pretty important goals.

>>7003145

attack wih Steal Mind please.

>>7003167
This.

>>7003145
It seems to be more towards Physically attacking the Ominarch and more power towards Fury, none towards the spawn.

>>7003145

I'm happy with this (I'd prefer our mental energies be focused on empowering ourself with rage, rather than controlling the spawn, but beggars can't be choosers).

>>7003169
We can't use Steal Mind effectively, we've never tried it, it was only in the Ominarch's memory, and we can't use all of his powers.

>>7003163
Well, most of the talk seems to revolve around:
- Defending Fury
- Enforcing on spawn
But some people still want:
- Empowering Tank

So, I think I will go with what I listed - it shifts priorities a little bit. You'll all get a bit of what you want.

Enough circles. Posting.

>>7003173
Except for all the people in favour of empowering the Spawn you mean? The spawn who are DESCENDING UPON US RIGHT NOW?

>>7003173

Agreed.

>>7003173
I disagree. We need to deal with the spawn before we get zerg rushed.

>>7003185
well between the GM's posts ideas have been shifting. I dunno who is changing their minds or not.

>>7003184

To be fair, everyone seemed united that whatever we do, we need to focus on it rather than attempting everything.

>>7003208
Fair enough. Just worried about the "practically mindless Speedspawn rushing towards you, their fangs gaping."

>>7003182
Argh, but we could get Telekinesis.

>>7003201
Alright, smash the fuckers then.

We've got a good thing going with Tank, I KNOW IT.

>>7003219
This i can agree with.

You won't let Fury die. This is a son who has been loyal to you, all of the way, despite your initial doubts. What you feel... You can't quite call it hatred anymore. You're not doing this because you hate the Omniarch. Well, you do hate the Omniarch, but it's not just that. The bastard has done so much to so many. It has corrupted so much. You cannot let it get away with this. You speed forward, with the barking Speedspawn on your tail, snapping at your heels. One of them jumps on to your back, but you manage to knock it off - you're splitting half towards the spawn, but so is the Omniarch. You're even - but your bastard grandchild has the initial advantage.

Even as you barge into it and send Fury rolling to the side, it is still laughing. You raise a hefty claw to maul the head of the Omniarch - but it freezes in the air. A crushing claw seizes your arm and the laughter grows as the Omniarch begins to tug, with the aid of telekinesis. "How would you like be left without an arm, just like your weak, pathetic g--

"OUR GOD, SLUL-HUGGOTH."

A telekinetic burst sends you rolling away from the Omniarch as it shoots to its feet, your arm still strained and hurting from the injury that your opponent was soon to inflict. Speaking of the Omniarch, it has ceased its laughter. It begins to reinforcement of the spawn, urging them to attack you again as it steps back, appearing confused - trying to get an understanding of the situation that it is in.

Fury is climbing back to his feet, bloodshot eyes staring at the Omniarch with murderous intent. He currently remains unnoticed by his prey, who is too busy overcoming its confusion.

Three screaming Batspawn are descending towards you from the sky. Speedspawn are charging towards your front. Deepspawn and Tentaspawn from the back.

>>7003310

I'd like to request an (approximate?) count of spawn in the area, and what they are.

Also, who emitted that telekinetic blast that saved us? Fury!?

>>7003310
"BY OUR GOD SLUL-HUGOTH! KILL THE FALSE PROPHET!"

We can take them... and then the Omniarch will be alone and destroyed.

>>7003354
The Omniarch did.
The spawn count is approximately 110.

Yes, they're all preparing to zerg rush you.

>>7003310
Yes good, Fury is Telekinetic.

Now, we can't do much in the way of fighting off the spawn. Concentrte on either Melting or Stealing the mind
OR
Empower Tank to the Maximum.
Time to Gamble and Win you guys.
He's confused.

Focus completely on the spawn Psychicly, If fury has mind powers order him to attach the Omniarchs mind. Dropkick the Omniarch and then beat him into unconciousness.

>>7003310
Again i gotta support the spawn-swaying plan. We need to let them know that their devotion has been based on his lies. We take them and he's dead.

>>7003373
Empower Tank OR Steal mind, depending on what's the most popular, I don't want us being spread out thinly.

>>7003372
Oh, good, Tank scheme is working.
Look for Tank again, send all our power through him.

>>7003372
Can we determine if Tanks mind gave off the psychic blast?

This thread is starting to prove why democracy is the best form of government.

Because nothing good or bad gets done.

I think it is time to make everyone feel it. If we can make a pack of wolves attack eachother with ease, we can no doubt over load or stun our own spawn.

Let's yell. Let's try not to loose control, but let's get all the attention on us, and let fury strike him. Let's let out all of our hatred, all of our emotions. Everyone we have.

Send out the thought that if those underlings dare to touch you or Fury, you will feast on them one by one slowly. Let them know why they should fear us with an unfettered burst of fear and hatred.

>>7003398
Or Steal Mind ofc, get Fury to bat off the spawn off of us if he didn't send the Mind Blast and is not Telekinetic.

>>7003406
No.
>>7003413
Yeah, it can get quite silly with so many opinions being posted so many times.

There is an IRC open for discussion.

Rizon.
#SlugQuest

>>7003372

The Omniarch did? He's not the only one that's confused - we were at his mercy. And if he blasted us himself, why's *he* confused?

>>7003422
It was probably Tanks mind fighting back.

>>7003415
Why scare when we can convert?

I vote for using Tank's mind as a conduit to overload the Omniarch's minds.

>>7003441
Seconded
& Fury bats off spawn.

This time, votes are contested between focusing completely on Tank or focusing completely on spawn.

Think I might flip a coin. But I will wait for a few more opinions, see if you guys come to a unified conclusion.

>>7003422
I'm guessing Tank might have had his hand in this matter. That having been said, empower Tank!

I'm with empowering tank.

>>7003455
Spawn! Spawn! Spawn!
(Wow. Last time I chanted that my wife was giving birth!)

Okay. How about this Bio. you're leaving it really open and that is cool, but what can we reasonably do.

Does it feel like we can openly get our children's minds free if we focus on that 100%

Does it feel like we could free Tank if we focus on that 100%?

>>7003482
Damn it man! Now is not a time for jokes!

>>7003461

Ah, right. Yes, empower Tank. Scream out to Fury 'Defend me, my son!'

>>7003484
You approximately equal the Omniarch in mental power.
The Omniarch has more power over the spawn than you do automatically due to the condition.
However, he's splitting his attention between the spawn and the other things. If you focus entirely on the spawn, you will, likely, be able to control them.

As for the situation with Tank, you have got no idea what's going on in the Omniarch's hivemind.

>>7003455
I'm with Spawn.

I'm totally for focusing on Tank.

Spawn. Once we have them we focus on Tank.

rolled 5, 5 = 10

I vote to empower tank and have fury hold of spawn

>>7003541
Huzzah!

Its a win/win. But to make Fury useful I think we should have him attack the spawn.
And that leaves us with a single Tank shaped option.
We will Brainwash and indoctrunate spawn later.

>>7003541
Spawn it is. Dont forget to dropkick the Omniarch in the face while dominating the minds of your spawn.

Focus on the Spawn. Even if we free tank we'll never be able to trust him again, and chances are, Fury has lost himself to rage and will kill Tanks "body" no matter who occupies it.

Focus on the spawn. Keep Tank distracted and let Fury kill him. Assist in killing him if fury needs help.

rolled 1 = 1

Just did a random roll and the result was spawn.

Going with that, since you folks are still contested.

Posting.

We shall never let Fury kill tank, dammit.
Either we will Get that Telekenesis (Mind Steal) or we will Get a Telekinetic Tank (Empower him to ownership of the Omniarch body)

Don't outright kill Omniarch in any event. We NEED THIS. We're at such a back foot obviously, its not even funny.

>>7003613
We empower Tank to ownership of the Omniarch's body and we will live every day with the risk of that cunt reasserting. It needs to be dead. If tanks mind can be preserved in US then fine... but anything with omniarch in it must die.

>>7003613

We're only on a back-foot compared to the Omniarch.

This isn't 'Twink up your character to ridiculous levels' Quest. Enough about 'Mind Steal', you're turning into that guy with his opposable claw thumbs.

>>7003623
There are 5 other Omniarchs out there after this one. We must take chances.

>>7003561
You're not willing to risk being injured by your own descendants. Mustering all of your psychic willpower, you force the truth upon the spawn - your truth. You inform them of everything and of your position. You place your mind into theirs. Through their minds, you control their bodies. You break through the control that the Omniarch previously had over them - suddenly, the charging spawn that were about to cover you divert from you and begin to flow around you, charging towards the Omniarch.

"What?! No!" The confused bastard grandchild returns the majority of its focus to the spawn, trying to regain its grip over them when it lets out a cry of pain - Fury has recovered his spear and he has sunken it into the side of the Omniarch, managing to pierce its carapace. The loyalist jumps on to the Omniarch, punching and hammering at it with his claws, actually managed to crack the chitin. Each strike seems to cause the willpower of the Omniarch to temporarily wane. It is struggling to grab and throw off Fury.

Things are looking up.

>>7003641
Incorrect.

This body before you is the one host of this hivemind of six minds. Even you can already tell that.

There are not 'five other bodies'. There's this one body, and six minds that share it, some minds with more power over it than others.

>>7003641
There were six minds. One of them was tanks. There is no other tank body out there which means there may not be more omniarchs out there.

A fused mind rather than a hive mind.

>>7003636
Alright. Changing Mindset.

>>7003642
Suggest for fury to use his TK in defense, or counter attack.

Now that we're generally on the attack, I suggest a spread out effort on all fronts as mentioned.

>>7003642
Empower Tank!
CRUSH THE OTHER MINDS!

rolled 1, 1 = 2

While we have the advantage we need to spear that fucker

once we have damn near killed him THEN we can experiment with cutting up his mind

>>7003642
Keep an eye on the spawn, head for the Omniarch, Crush his mind. Pull Fury off before he kills him, scream that Tank is still in there.

>>7003642
The time is now!

Full power to Tank. Use Tank's mind as a conduit to destroy the other minds.if possible.

>>7003642
Tear him to shreds. Poor tank, but there is nothing we can do. Rip and tear until her is weak and down. Then send all the little ones outside the hive save you, fury, and Omni.

Then It's time to do things slowly, take him apart. torture him, but make sure he can't send his mind out into anyone or anything else before we finally kill him.

Do not feign or faulter even if he claims to be tank. Do not except any parts of his mind. And his every bit of our power to make sure he stays in this body as it dies.

>>7003678
Sure okay. But this too:

>>7003676

Fuck year, Slug Quest! Now I am glad I wasn't allowed to work because of my pants!

>>7003642
Huzzah! Full power to the Tank! Keep the Omniarch busy trying to fight a full assault on both the physical and the psychic fields of battle!

We can rip him apart, but I want to try to bring Tank to the forefront. While he's off balance and trying to regain control of the Spawn, lets shift to focusing on Tank.

>>7003642

We have an opportunity to finish off the Omniarch here, but we have to be strong. We have to sacrifice Tank.

Focus all our mental efforts on suppressing Omniarch's telekinetic ability. Order Fury and the Spawn (though they may be under Omniarch control again) to kill the Omniarch.

Tank will be lost, but the Omniarch should die. Fury will get the job done.

I feel trying to save tank will only lead to problems. I think we should keep it simple. Kill him and make sure he stays that way, and does not enter, or eat any other minds.

>>7003723
No dude. The Omniarch has nothing left, if we knock him out we can crush all traces of the Omniarch and get Tank back.

>>7003737

Nothing left? The Omniarch's already absorbed six minds. You're vastly overestimating how well this battle has gone if you think we can slap him around a bit and cow him into submission.

>>7003737
This man speaks the truth and I heartily agree.

>>7003732
Tank is our beloved son, the physic compliment to Fury's brute strength. We need him.

I could be rolling to see what you go with:
- Focus on Tank, possibly losing some grip on your spawn
- Focus on crushing the Omniarch, denying him the strength to control your spawn

Shall I roll then, or is this something you would rather decide? Yet again, the opinion seems split.

>>7003737
That's interesting - can we attempt to use our telepathic powers to *stun* him and use that opening to *pull* Tank back to the forefront of the mind?

>>7003723
>>7003732
>>7003696
DO NOT LISTEN TO THESE PEOPLE

We can destroy the other minds and thus be left with no fear that there is another Omniarch mind hidden somewhere.

>>7003745
He is on his back, Fury is punching his face off, he doesn't have the focus to take over the Spawn again and we can focus on crushing his mind. He has nothing left.

>>7003755
Do both.

>>7003755
Hmm... actually I think I may have to choose the latter. Killing the Omniarch is our priority.

>>7003755
I'd say focus on saving Tank, but roll if you have to.

>>7003755
I, of course, want a Telekinetic Tank. If he proves himself through all this I can heartily put my trust in him.
Besides, even if Omniarch excerts some influence over him for the rest of his life, its basically going to become a day-to-day battle to appease the progress driven Omni inside so he doesn't rebel inside of tank's body.
Sort of like Bleach. Shit, I want Tank to live and I want to play Tank.

I mean the only reason we're not in arms with the Omniarch is because we're playing sluggish compared to his rate of progress. Truth be told, I want to learn what his story is. And by doing so delve into our origins and abilities.

>>7003737
you should remember his nightly excursions
he probably has a backup hive set up just in case

Slul-Hoggoth knows I would

rolled 2 = 2

Rolling on what you're focusing on.
1 - Tank
2 - Omniarch

In the future however, the suggestions backed up with the most logic. If you can justify your opinion, it will be acknowledged far more than the chants of "Spawn! Spawn! Spawn!"

>>7003755

Option 2. We can't let the Omniarch survive, only to raise another million spawn against us.

>>7003810
Alas, poor Tank.

>>7003810
Don't kill him! Just knock him out!

>>7003826

A fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy.

>>7003841
Mama said.

Tank has been one of our most useful spawn, but he is 1/3 the mind that possesses that body. The Omniarch is 1/2. The odds of us being able to crush to Omniarch, and keep it supressed, is not worth the risk. One slip, and suddenly the Omniarch is back to it's old games. We need to crush it now, and mourn the loss of Tank. His memory will live on, but his body shall not.

Reduce it to cinders, we can not let any of the Omniarch's taint live on in ANYWAY!

>>7003810
I'm sorry about tank, but I believe this to be the more logical option. I doubt we could cleanse the Omniarch completely from his mind and if we did there would always be suspicion.

If by "focus on crushing Omniarch" you mean crushing the Omniarch's minds, then this is acceptable. Otherwise, don't kill the body. We need Tank.

>>7003810
You focus entirely on the mind of the Omniarch, smashing the confused bastard into oblivion with your own mind, bombarding him over and over again as you rush forward with the spawn, preparing to handle this once and for all.

Fury is also doing his part. Although the Omniarch is gripping his torso, he is now gripping its inside - and is slowly clawing them apart, having dug through the chitin. Psychically and physically, Fury is exacting its brutal, sadistic revenge, exerting all of its might upon the Omniarch. Combined, you are strong enough to overpower the Omniarch.

But... Something's happened to its mind. You don't understand how the Omniarch works efficiently enough to understand what's going on, so that's as much insight you have on the information. Despite all the psychic bombardment, it's still managing to do something, even as you tear it apart with your mind and Fury tears it apart with its claws.

>>7003857
He's even less than that. Tank is 1/6... there were two other 6ths and the other 50% was Omniarch

>>7003864
Tank is dead.

>>7003868
Well, what happens?

>>7003843
he shall for always be remembered

Remember!
Shmackha, the Traitor
Omiarch, the Heretic
Tank, the Fallen
Scout, the Lost
Flyer, the Mutilated

The Battle in the Swamp
The Great Hate meeting the Great Progress
Within a Red Mist

>>7003868
Is he trying to transfer his mind into another body? Can he even do that?

>>7003868
You see, this is why we should have empowered Tank. Now we're going to have a dead body and the minds have probably jumped off into some spawn of ours.

Is Tank even still there? If so, maximum power to Tank.

>>7003886
Tank is not dead, he stopped the Ominarch from crushing our arm!

>>7003868
Supress.

>>7003890
I take it you want to continue doing exactly what you're doing at the moment then.

But, waiting for the opinion of others.

>>7003868
I think we need to create a kind of... psychic blockade around the Omniarch's mind. Keep it from attempting to leave that body. We don't know it can do that, but it's quite possible that it can and thats a risk we cant take.

We need to rebuild the shield it made itself and use it to keep its mind IN instead of keeping others OUT. Then when Fury is done murdering the corpse we will know it is gone forever.

>>7003908
VOTE FOR TANK.
Change Method
Change it.

>>7003908
No wait, if I have a say tell me first. Is there any way Tank can survive?

>>7003868

Lessen our influence on the spawn. Put up mental shields around ourselves and Fury - we don't want that bastard invading our minds.

Particularly Fury; he's not as savvy as we are, psionically.

>>7003908
Can we pause for a moment and probe his mind to try to see what he is doing? If Tank is still in there fighting against the Three Ominarch parts, I'd like us to boost him or at least smash the specific Ominarch parts.

>>7003935

Also, order the minions to physically attack the Omniarch. Go for the eyes, minions!

>>7003921
this
Fury is more than capable of finishing him of himself
We should keep Omniarch tapped inside his own shell, just in case

>>7003921
Oh please do this! if we put everything into this then it'll save us SO much trouble in the long run.

>>7003921
We can OBLITERATE the Omniarch minds. It's not like they're indestructible. What we have to do is make sure that Tank isn't lost in the process.

>>7003927
You're doing things here that you haven't done before.

You're not aware of what the results will be if you try to save Tank - it's something you haven't done before.

A child that hasn't played with fire does not know that fire burns, for example.

You do not know what the outcome will be if you try to save Tank. Tank might be saved, or you might just be put at a disadvantage. You are uncertain. You are unsure. You do not know if it will work or not.

It's as simple as that.

It's uncertainty.

>>7003908
RIP AND TEAR THE OMNIARCH MINDS!

>>7003947
we need to keep the taint from spreading so i third this plan

>>7003921

I take back my previous vote (shield us and Fury mentally) and vote for this.

Purge this bastard both in mind and body!

The loss of Tank will be regretable, and it saddens me to even think he must die, but his sacrifice will not be in vain, as we will destroy one of the most destructive forces we have had to face.

We must not allow any of the Omniarch's taint to be allowed to exist. Once we have slain this abomination, we must destroy the body with cleansing fire. I am sure we are smart enough to start a bonfire.

Order the spawn to rip and tear, while we blast it's mind to jelly.

And order some to mangle the Omniarch's arm! It is hurting our favored child!

I vote for either the :
Mind Shield around self and Fury. If spawn get infected they'll be advanced senients, we'll lkill them. But fury s already advanced, so we won't be able to tell.
2) Mind Blockade on Omniarch.
3) TANK

Whichever is the most likely to happen based on everyone's votes please.

>>7003957
We have to try, he was there with us from the very start, he was one of our first, he was there when others failed, he Believes in us. He is our Dear Son. We have to try something! Power his mind! Try to take Tank into ourselves! Anything!

We have to believe in our Son! We have to Believe he is strong enough to fight for Life, For us, For Slul-Hugoth!

then again...
If we can get the other half of the omniarch to team up under Tank, maybe we could save Tank, and give us an awesome new advanced sentient

>>7003957
Though unsure of the results, I believe that saving Tank will not put us at a disadvantage - we control the Hive Spawn and Fury, and with the Ominarch without allies we can suppress him if he tries to break free before we can bring Tank to the surface of the hive mind. IF we can bring Tank up, we can attempt to psychically purge the other aspects of Tank's mind, effectively conditioning him like we do our own brood.

Kill him. Eat him. Be fucking done with it so we can move on with growing our species. Keeping Tank or any parts of the Omni alive will be bad.

Just. Fucking. End. It.

>>7004007

>>7004007
Do this. Even if it's just so we can talk to tank one last time before he dies.

How about a compromise between the two prominent options?

disable the Omniarch, but don't kill him
then we can save Tank afterwards
and if it's impossible, Omniarch will be an easy kill

>>7004074
Disabling requires us to know what the fuck it is its doing.

>>7004052
I do remember, but that was because it captured it and had it psychically isolated in the presence of its own brood. Here it only tried to mentally subvert our brood - it had no allies here and with us present it can't twist our children like it did Flyer without us finding out. Simply put, with our mind scanning powers we can detect him if he moves, as he can only inhabit Advanced Sentients.

We can always make a new Tank! Bigger, better, stronger, faster! If we can kill this bastard, who has been giving us shit since we left the sewers, we will be able to dedicate more resources into EXPANDAN AND GROWAN!

Needs of many, needs of few, you know the fucking saying!

>>7004074
Doesn't sound like much of a compromise when most of the posts against saving tank are worried of omniarch mental evac...

>>7004019

The Omniarch is the most dangerous enemy we've ever faced, and you want to go soft on him? If we hold back in the slightest, we will regret it later.

>>7004098
Bringing up another Advanced Sentient as trustworthy and loyal as Tank would be difficult.

>>7004092
Unless he moves all three minds into three new bodies and makes them all flee. We have a limited range.

>>7004107
Its also potentially the biggest payoff we could get in ters of abilities and self-knowledge.
It seems like Omnarch has been playing the game for us so far.
He's not so bad.

>>7004107
This.

>>7004107
I'm not saying to go soft on him - we already have him mostly incapacitated, but the fact remains that he is doing SOMETHING, and we need to guard against that. Since he is occupied doing that *something*, we can attempt to bring Tank to the forefront of the Mind Cluster that is the Ominarch and then use our psychic powers to cut out the parts that are Ominarch.

>>7004110

But it could be done! We have to look at this in the long run! Here we have our most hated foe, in our lair, being assaulted by our entire brood. We can wipe this fucker out and be done with him! No more fearing for our spawn, who may be twisted and warped beyond measure, no more fighting forces in the thousands, with our tiny brood!

We will be able to put our efforts towards getting better, not fighting a war with our own kind!

We nurture and tend our brood, and an advanced sentient will arise from them with time! We saw how quickly Fury ascended to those ranks, we will be able to do it again!

But if we need to fear every time that we enter our change, another foe will appear in our ranks and attempt to usurp all we have created just so we may have one, ONE of our children by our side still, who is also containing our most HATED ENEMY, what have we gained?

God damn I missed the entire thread.

>>7004110

Tank wasn't an Advanced Sentient in the first place.

>>7004166
It's not over yet my good man.

>>7004160
If tank can survive he will have TK and a Shit Load of Knowledge.

This time, the opinion seems to be primarily based on suppression and ending this, once and for all. You land upon the Omniarch and begin to tear the bastard apart, as do all of your young, slowly stripping the flesh from the bone. As life begins to ebb away, the mind is feverishly tearing itself apart while you attemplt to contain it.

"I cannot die like this! Not like this! I gotta survive! I gotta live! I gotta live! I gotta live!" The ranting grows insane as the Omniarch's mind is severed. Suddenly, one of the minds that makes up the hivemind - the human - suddenly suffers a most extraordinary end. It practically explodes into psychic energy, that is immediately leeched up by the rest of the mind. Then the finslug is victim to the same thing. Then Tank, despite all of the struggle he attempted to put up. Tank has just been snuffed out, just like that. Then one Omniarch. Then another Omniarch.

All that is left is one single mind after this bizarre situation of mental vampirism and cannibalism. Empowering by this sudden, insane burst of psychic energy, the last remaining Omniarch, far weaker than the previous three united, barely manages to burst through the barrier.

We must save Tank. We have to at least try.

>>7004177
At the same time, a telekinetic wind suddenly manifests, causing a patheticly weak Batspawn to soar through the air, away from the others that are broken up by the psychic winds. The mighty Omniarch is nothing more than one of your weakest spawn - not only that, but you now reduced its psychic potential. But at the cost of Tank.

There is nothing that the Omniarch can breed with - you know its tricks. You know what it will try and do and you can defend against it. You are ultimately at the advantage here, to a maddening degree.

In the end, your nemesis still exists - but barely. It's nothing more than a gnat. But if you hadn't sacrificed Tank, then what would it have become? How much of a threat would it have remained?

Today, you have lost a great son. However, you have also reduced your greatest nemesis to nothing more than a humiliated wretch who can do nothing to you.
Nothing.

I'm not making a suggestion, because I think this is hard enough for Bio to follow as is. But if you guys do care about "role playing" to an extent, Mr.Hateslug Primarch man, is an angry, distrusting, bloodthirsty fuck.

I find the idea of us taking the risk of bringing anything from Omniarch into our body to be greatly out of character for him. He -might- do something like that for fury, someone whos done nothing but respect, fear, and fight for us and try to impress us. But tank has always been kind of "meh", whiny, and at least once a coward.

tldr: From a Role play standpoint, I don't think we'd play around. I think we'd rip'n'tear.

Granted he could have evolved some, Kindness. but, I'm just stating my opinion.

>>7004160
Should we abandon Tank to the will of Slug-Hugoth and say that his loss is a noble sacrifice for the Brood? His will still exists in some tangible form in that monstrosity that is the Enemy, and by the will of Slug-Hugoth I will not sacrifice him to that fate!

CONTAIN IT! RIP IT TO FUCKING SHREDS!

>>7004177
Oh yeah, that's the good stuff.
Check now for extra advanced sentients. If none are located Fury has been infected.

Kill Omniarch now, I think.

Also, Tank reminded me of this rat we use to have. Runt, I think. Anyone remember that?

>>7004182
KILL IT!

>>7004177
DAMNIT BIO! Nobody actually wanted that to happen! We wanted to save Tank!

>>7004182
My heart weeps for our lost son. Destroy the enemy, utterly. Then let us raise a monument to our son's sacrifice.

>>7004209
You're... not really capable of flight, you know. Plus, the other batspawn are already at a disadvantage - it will win any race against them.

I suppose you can still use your mind against the latest, most pathetic form of the Omniarch.

>>7004204

I remember poor Runt. He was a good rat, helped us become what we are today.

We must make a shrine now. Out of the shell of Tank, to honor all those who have died aiding the ture messiah of Slul-hoggoth. Let the memory of Runt and Tank live on!

>>7004184
the Patriarch has preached faith, trust and family. We have told our strong to protect the weak, we have told them Slul-Hugoth watches over us all and we have told them we shall stand by one another.

So. Fuck you.

>>7004217

Shut up. Most people were specifically saying 'It sucks to sacrifice Tank, but we know it's best for the Hive'.

>>7004228
Crush his mind.

>>7004217
Chill man, its done. There seemed to be like 4 or 5 votes for killing the Ominarch that were the loudest.

Mind Steal! Lets try it before we kill him.

We can afford to.

>>7004217
Last time I checked, everyone was in favour of containing the Omniarch and removing the risk of the Omniarch no matter what.

However, the Omniarch's also too great a threat to remove just like that - but the Omniarch is far weaker than what we could've been if you tried to save Tank.

>>7004228
Do it. Crush it fucking mind to dust.

>>7004182

Taste the Omniarch's remains. If they don't taste of WRONG, then eat, and command Fury and the Spawnlings to eat.

We may be able to get another AS out of this. Speaking of, where the hell are Swimmer and our other named spawn?

>>7004228

TAUNT IT! Show it how great and powerful it once was, and show it how we took it all away, and left it as a weak, pitiful batspawn, fit only to be eaten by some passing owl!

>>7004217
Except for those of us who wanted to contain the situation even if it cost us tank...

YOU are not EVERYONE.

>>7004228
We have tusk harpoons. Fire away.

Fuckin yawn. Sweet, so no matter what we did here OMG TEAM ROCKET, I mean Omniarch BLASTING OFF AGAIN I'll get you next time gadget!

>>7004254
Your named Spawn are currently gestating. You ordered them to mere hours before this event took place.

Everyone in favour of trying to crush the Omniarch.

>>7004254
AS' come by chance. Nothing we eat will get us Powers either.
Please use Mind Steal before killing him Bio, its not that hard I've been begging for it.
You don't want us to kill your prescious creation the Omniarch without keeping something from him do you?

>>7004228
Crush his mind, then interrogate the spawn as to where he went on his trips out to sea, if he had a backup nest it must be purged.

Pull Tank from the Omniarch into our own mind. Kill Omniarch.
Place Tank in new body.
TANK LIVES.

>>7004270

>Butthurt because the BBEG got away, and a crippled form without the ability to raise an army ever again, pretty much defeating him it and leaving to wallow, knowing it once was great and powerful

Quit yer bitchin' we won, and it epic failed.

>>7004283
TANKS MIND EXPLODED! OMNIARCH MUST BE CRUSHED!

>>7004280

The Omniarch's already gotten away. And for the last time, stfu about Mind Steal. It's not a move. There are no 'moves'.

>>7004279
aye!

>>7004283
Tank died, get over it. Noone was in denial about Runt.

>>7004283
Tank's mind got eaten.

>>7004283
Yes, except I don't give a fuck about tank really.
GET HIS MIND INTO YOUR MIND!!!!

>>7004283
Tank's mind popped. This would be great if it were still there, but that didn't seem to happen.

In favor of eating the Omniarch's mind.

Ask that spawn that went with the omniarch to the water what that whole thing was all about.

Check that pile of wood that he dropped.

>>7004279
I'm in favour of trying to crush the Omniarch... ooc i have reservations about it but those are, as i said, just out of character.

>>7004279

CRUSH IT!

Turn it's pitiful mind to mush! All our hate, all our sorrow, all our fatherly love for our fallen son! Blast it's mind to ashes!

>>7004307

This. Let's absorb Omniarch into us. We are the only ones who can and should take the burden of containing him, forever. Not to mention we are the only ones with a right to the kind of power he and us both have.

Our first move should be to speak to the Spawn, tell them the true state of affairs, and the glory of Slu-Hoggath (and how we are his chosen representative on this plane).

Make sure they're loyal, basically.

>>7004297
We can do it if we try. Anyway I'm guaranteeing to you there's no way Bio will let this guy die unless we find out enough about him, and so with that said:
>>7004307
Mind Steal.

>>7004268
Twelve-feet long tusk harpoons.

Also, come on - the Omniarch is your nemesis. If the Omniarch died just like that, not only would it be an anticlimax, you'd remove the nemesis.

Now, you attempt to crush the mind of the Omniarch even as it tries to soar away. Mentally, you reach out and you grasp at the pathetic creature's mind. You grip it firmly and you begin to tear it apart - heck, you're strong enough to make a cat go into a coma with nothing but your mind, you can do the same with this bastard.

A hideous psychic screech comes from the traitor as you tear it apart - and it descends from the sky, just out of range. But you know the damage you did. You can feel it. You practically tore the bastard in half, crippled it. Sent it crashing from the sky and into the forest.

If you're quick enough, you might be able to find it and end it once and for all.

Would you like to search or divert your attention to other things?

Jeeze. Reading through this entire thread.

I think I'm done with this quest.

>>7004348
Find it, kill it.

>>7004348
Search with the mind.

>>7004348
find him, smile, toss him to Fury
walk away into the forest
huddle in foetal position for a while
return

>>7004352
Really? Why? We hammered the Omniarch.

New thread: >>7004361

>>7004348

No, do not send anyone out. He is crippled, and native wildlife will be able to take care of him. We must see how badly Fury has been wounded, and see that our children are given a stern reprimand for following such a false prophet. Do not be harsh, but tell them that you, and only you, are the messiah of Slul-Hoggoth. All of you are our children, and that puts you close to Slul-Hoggoth, but always below you when dealing with the god.

>>7004039
Kill the fucking thing!!!!
END IT!!!!
