Suggestions and bullshitting thread, venting, etc. [NSFW]

Might also try some other shiz. Got a Kobold who supposedly worked under a BBEG or two, and perhaps some dragons. It’d be interesting to see a party try to clean up him and his party the hard way.
 
This Kobold is in another campaign on his redemption arc. It’d be cool to see.

@EclecticInspiration  
Your speaking to the guy who just uses nyanta

@NyantaStarhunt  
not gonna lie this kobold might become a main character of mine  
Using one character is cool. Using multiple is cool. I use multiple because I don’t want to spend too much time with one, but in a weird way

@EclecticInspiration  
Trust me. Having just the one is amazing it becomes you and your able to shape it a lot easier. Also fun.
 
I have a funny little thing in my head that every single Nyanta Every made co wait with each other so they can share their memories

@EclecticInspiration  
(by contrast i make countless characters and get ridiculously attached to them.)

@Cerebrate  
I’m attached to each of mine intimately- they’re my little babies.

“Killer Juniors”
 
^{”…he had also swapped his tertiary rocket pod for an 84mm recoilless cannon. It was old tech. A short barreled ugly thing, and Sidonus had been intrigued. Junner had explained that it was a close quarter battle mod, utilizing implosion shells to utterly ruin targets within close proximity. Junner called it a ‘Killer Junior’, after an age-old daisy-cutting tactic used in jungle warfare by artillery units. To Sidonus, the rapport from it sounded like a carronade from the Seventh Hell.”}  
-Teslatic Memoires  
 
An 84mm Venturi effect recoilless cannon, man-portable, loaded with short-fuse implosion rounds—a combination otherwise known as the “Killer Junior”. Hits like a meteor, provided you can get close enough, as the rounds can be dialed to detonate up to 25 meters away, or down to nary a hair’s breadth of distance just safely outside the edge of the 10-meter-wide blast radius.
 
They’re typically used for “termite raids” on Cabalites and Cultists to bring down tunnel networks, but the real cavaliers are those who use the weapon like a jousting lance against larger adversaries. Even colossal-sized mechs sometimes equip them on pintle-mounts rather than machineguns if they know they’re in for some knife fighting against other massive units or beasts. It’s a big step in damage for its miniscule size, if you don’t mind the loss of range, or ruptured eardrums.
 
 
“Romper Stompers”  

 
Ingenious repurposing of mothballed Teslatic mech legs… waaay above their original weight class. I’d be amazed if we don’t find one of these with a leg sheared clean off after a sharp turn. But then if you have a bad idea, Kobolds will strap an engine and a driver’s seat to it. They’re democratic that way.
 
Two 37mm pom-poms in a nest of guide wires bolted to a cannibalized airship fuselage, and who knows how many kobolds crawling around inside to keep the thing running. The bomber crew approach is a cute touch, though. Waist gunners manning smaller mounted machineguns, and a main gunner seated at where the bombardier would sit. Knowing that riveting any more rubber-injected armor (ideal for absorbing hollow-charge penetrations & magic-bolts) unto the vulnerable backside would topple the thing right over, they just stick a dedicated spotter back there and call it good. Too much of everything and a philosophy of radical inclusiveness, especially bad ideas. The Kobold way.
 
When one of these comes in feet pounding, obnoxious music and horns blaring and blazing like the Ecclesia on judgement day, the Romper Stomper goes from silly to terrifying in seconds flat. All the while, those crazy Kobolds will be perched atop, hooting and hollering, though most of all throwing up the bird and tribal gestures at the hapless foes about to be treaded underfoot.

Hey is it weird if me and my straight non furry friend are looking at gay yiff hahaha.

@NyantaStarhunt  
depends. if it’s bad and you’re mocking it, not at all.

@Anonymous #DD80  
I mean we scrolling through it and just being “Critics”

@NyantaStarhunt  
then it’s not really weird, not moreso than most of the internet anyways.

what shooting a ‘‘Killer Junior’’ 5 times in a row would probably do, oboi.

“The Varipapa”  
%’‘MARK IT ZERO!’’% %-Gunnery Chief referring to details jotted into a “D.O.P.E.” book, or marksman’s diary.%
 

 
If you imagine a catapult throwing a bowling ball then you’ve got the right idea. Kobold scrapper-crews melt down the heaviest metals they can find into solid shot, sometimes for proper shells, sometimes hand-packing explosives separately like ye olde cannoneers. The implementation may be crude but you can’t argue with the devastation Varipapa crews have wreaked—I’ve personally witnessed a skipping round pass through a whole mob of cultists before stopping inside a large mutant’s chest.

@Coriolanus  
(approved, the kobolds as a subfaction of the teslatics weld scrap together, and for reasons no one can quite explain, it works.)

 
“Kobold Legionnaires”
 
[ 🎶 ]  
The Teslatics had only just rolled out their newest war machines, dubbed “tanks”, leading a grand military parade through the boulevard of the new capital’s crown-jewel districts, when two weeks later we got wind of a mock-parade out in “The Deads”–the slums closest to the city wall bordering the toxified exterior. Kobold runabouts, chicken-walkers, and infantry processed solemnly down the street, vagrants, drunks, and junkies standing straight-backed and saluting on the sidewalks.  

 
The centerpiece of the column was a newfangled “tank” of the kobolds’ own design, known heretofore as “The Duke”, chandeliers jingle-jangle-jostlin’ on the hood, with a kobold standing proudly out of the cupola, wearing a raggedy trenchcoat with epaulettes made from of the head of a dust-mop.
 
The war council liked their panache and skill with machinery so much, they made an offer in response: in return for enlistment into the Teslatic military, the kobolds’ inhabited slums would be transformed into their own gentrified districts, on-par with the capital’s affluent hub sectors. What was once “The Deads”, soon became “The Seams” thereafter. Kobold legionnaires today are known as units whose training focuses on engineering skills and on a strong esprit de corps, as they draw ranks from dozens of tribes each with their own different cultures.
 

 

 
Kobold Legion Mech, toting a “Killer Senior”  

 
Staple light cavalry unit used by Kobold Legionnaires. Designed on the dreams and wishes of bloodthirsty kobolds, then streamlined by calculating artificers. Far lighter and faster than most traditional war machines, yet still formidably armed. Heavy cavalry can’t stand them, can’t get their head around maneuver warfare over dealing blunt force trauma. Great turning radius and speed plus a wicked stomp. Official designation is the Vorwerkhuhn, but nobody has ever liked saying or spelling that.
 
“Killer Senior”  
 
%“Wolf Like Me.”  
-Motto oftentimes written on the side of 88mm Killer Senior cannonbarrels, in reference to an old fairytale involving property-destruction.%
 
Armament-wise, the Kobolds’ knack for chaotic firepower is exemplified by their beloved “Killer Senior”. Air-bursting implosion ordnance, set to a dangerously short fuse creates a field of shrapnel in front of the firing vehicle; massive swarming hordes of most Houses are rapidly cut down by the sheer volume of metal, while most larger warriors and beasts lose their ears, eyes, and organs to the blast wave, or are simply blown to pieces. Since the Killer Senior was designed for engagements within 100 meters, accuracy is a non-issue. Weight normally dedicated to elongating the barrel is instead spent creating a much thicker one, allowing greater pressures to be exerted without compromising the weapon’s structural integrity—it’s why a Killer Senior is able to sustain such a high rate of fire despite such a large caliber.
 
The end-result is cacophonous, withering to the enemy, and effective, an apt summary for the Kobolds themselves. Ironically, the Killer Senior (& Junior) also happens to be an extremely efficient counter to Kobold war-machinery and numbers, provided any other Houses’ commanders are adventurous enough to salvage and maintain the weaponry.
 
Paired with a Legion Mech, the combination is a consummate herald of mechanized destruction, terrifying in efficiency. The only record by Uruk spies that exists of a legion mech spear in operation, speaks of entire city blocks of a Noblian protectorate all coming down in sequence, as if wracked by massive earthquakes. What few survivors were recovered exhibited some of the most severe cases of shellshock Empyria has ever seen.
 

 

 
”’‘BMC’’, Balefire’s Manmade Cousin”  

 
Scientifically notified as ‘‘But-2-ynedinitrile’’. A clear liquid at room temperature, prepared by passing nitrogen gas over a graphite filament heated between 2673 and 3000 K. It burns with a bright blue-white flame at a temperature of 5260 K (4990 °C, 9010 °F), producing the hottest non-magical flame ever; paired with ozone, the flame temperature exceeds 6000 K.
 
 
“Thresher”  

 
“Extirpator”  

 
 
’‘Expurgate Solution’’  
%“HE TURNED US, INTO FUCKING KILLERS!”  
-Notorious quote recorded from quarreling Teslatic Artillerists, in the aftermath of the “Floranim Malaise”.%
 

 
A formulated cocktail of acids, packed into the infamous 132mm “agitator” canisters which tumble end over end, mixing the contents en route to the target. Teslatic high command forswore usage of the weapon after what happened to a caravan of refugees fleeing Empyria into Floranim territories, but I’ve still seen ammo caches along with both of the related compressed-air launchers; the two-barreled “Thresher”, and the larger six-barreled “Extirpator” variant, at more than one armory warehouse.
 
Mixing the solution is extremely exothermic. If the solution is made rapidly, it instantly begins boiling, releasing large amounts of corrosive fumes. Because the mixture is a strong oxidizing agent, it will remove most organic matter, but also hydroxylates metal surfaces, making them highly hydrophilic, or water-compatible.
 
In other words, it violently melts away textiles, plantmatter, insect carapace, fur, bone, and skin, causing severe chemical burns in the process, but it leaves almost everything made out of metal completely intact, like threshing wheat from chaff, hence the smaller launcher’s namesake.
 
The Empyrian scientist and his assistants responsible for this concoction were so proud of what they made.
 
Atrocities are all good fun, until they make you breathe.
 
After the “Floranim Malaise”, they were all found dumped in a neat row right before the Teslatic capital’s gates, with their insides turned into a black paste, having been forced to inhale and ingest Expurgate. The vigilantes who hunted them down apparently had a flair for poetic justice.

@Coriolanus  
upon hearing exactly what the mixture they had marketed as “fuel of the future” did, Teslatic Premier Matt, awarded the unknown vigilantes the ruby cross of honor, for obvious reasons it remains unclaimed.  
it also started a very keen eyed crackdown on further chemical warfare possibilities, as Matt was quoted having said: “we are the people of teslania, meant to build the future from the natural after the unnatural has failed us. no more messing around with chemically altering bodies, be it to kill or to turn into super soldiers. medicine is the exception and i would like to ament the rule of the oath, do no harm, lest immense harm be done to you! am i clear on that?!”
 
people believe this is due to Matt’s own floranim upbringing, the tigerfolk having left and sought their fortunes still remembering their roots. “technology is an extension of nature, we were given the ability to make it to explore, but we do not fix that which isn’t broken, mutation experiments are out, that’s final!

might be the wrong thread?

(hehe, just having fun kitty. i could put it in the actual thread but it’s more a codex page than anything easy to implement.)
