Message: <blockquote data-quote="Shayuri" data-source="post: 5350676" data-attributes="member: 4936">Shayuri: Have you considered something a bit stronger for a motivation to leave your home for the city? Say entire sections of the Beast which you don't/only half-way understand, circuits you've never seen before, functions un-guested at (aether-magic-psionic-alien-time travel based?) threaded through the more classical circuits, or maybe a critical, mystical central part(s) just plain missing (artifact questing anyone?)? Whatever this missing function does, it could in fact be the main/most formidable part of the mech's true purpose. Gives you a mystery that you can't (entirely) solve on your own, a reason to crave financing (to pay for exotic parts, sure, but books and manuals of lost knowledge don't come cheap, and neither does truly good expert advice (and who *knows* what those crazy sages might ask in lieu of hard cash payments!)). Plus, of course, room for the suit to grow in an unexpected direction in the future.... Interested?Heh, my writeup clearly left something to be desired. This was basically what I had in mind. In other words, Deez has only been able to restore the very simplest and most basic functions to operation. She lacks tools, expertise and parts to do more.But yes, the idea is that with time and access to high tech goodies, Deezy will unlock additional functions and goodies within this machine. It is, after all, a relic from a time when technology was much higher than now. And there are questions too, about it that are unanswered. What was it doing, all by itself in the middle of nowhere, with no pilot, and no real damage (beyond the damage done by time and exposure)? Was it abandoned? Why? Was it hidden? Why?!Etc.</blockquote>
