Catalyst is Vilkarlig (http://abr.wetpaint.com/page/Vilkarlig), a character of Lying's, which adds a certain depth to the conflict.

Fun fact: Vilkarlig is Danish/Norwegian for 'arbitrary.'

Still, Vert isn't going to be canned forever and will get out whether or not somebody frees him. Why, you ask? 'Cause I said so.

And me.
*is not letting the MBEG go to waste*.

As awesome as stuff like this is, I'm always disappointed when I'm not in them.

Not to nitpick, but Vilkarlig was created by me for that set of three comics I did explaining the backstory to the main plot. As with everything else, Lying expanded on the character and essentially created everything about him besides the name and the fact that he was a demon/devil lord.

I did, of course, intentionally name Vilkarlig after the Danish/Norwegian word for 'arbitrary'. It just seemed to fit the actions of a CE demon (this was before Lying made him LE).

And who is this 'most successful BBEG'? Threeshades? Since when did she serve him?

Actually, no. he has no power over her. ATM at least, maybe he will later on.

The one I talk about is her ancestor Sildyu. everyone should have figured it out by now. if they have read the archives. (damn, back at you, I wan originally on ABR before you, jest had a long pause.)

Edited his wiki page to include his latest activity.

BTW-nice to see you back V...but is it wrong to think she-nameless looks hot?

Green-Shirt Q
2008-09-10, 05:47 AM
Okay. First of all, Vert Doom is a god who has destroyed worlds. have you even read the archives? The main reason that Ins hasn't been defeated is that he is very intelligent and has not only the Sovices but the Pokemon guys at his command. As Q said, Vert Doom would trash Ins, and probably that 'Catalyst' guy.


You are right about everything else except for one small thing. Vert Doom isn't technically a god. He is almost, if not more so, god-like, but his existance is nothing divine. I'll explain everything when the time comes.

But everything else you said, dead right. Here's a cookie.

Yes, Vilkarlig's very first appearances were in Plot Exposition of Vengeance I-III (Comics 41-43 in the archives), by kpenguin. I retconned the whole CE demon/LE devil bit after running it past him.

I'll try to finish the archives after my spore addiciton ends. I'm at about 825 right now, so I'm pretty much exactly 2/3 of the way through (4.5 off exact)(from the archives).

About half as often as I should. But it helps to wait a little bit until plot threads reach a low point or cliffhanger where you can break them up. That way, I can put them in an order that's easier to read thru, with less jumping around.

We're about due for one, I'd say.

Possibly. I don't remember calling him a god (though I do remember saying he had god-like power) but it's possible I might have accidentally said it.

Maybe you are being confused with the other non-related big bad guy I have created for Sprite Wars. The God Emperor of Time (though as we may soon find out, he too isn't exactly a god either).

Most of the Black Mesa reaserch center was focused with teleportation experiments, weapon development and other stuff like that.

I've played through to the space stage and got blue on the first three.
but the only way of winning civilisation is military.

Certainly the military's ICBM makes civilisation stage almost irrelevant, but you can still be victorious using religious or economic pathways.

On a similar, if still off-topic, note, anyone know what to do when you've got one battered ship (Armed only with pirate support, basic laser and missiles) and your heavily-armed homeworld is in the middle of enemy territory? I shot down one city and suddenly I'm at war with an empire far larger than previously known.

Assuming you have allies/colonies and money. I would go somewhere pay to refuel, heal and buy new weapons. (Also if you have an ally planet you may be able to get one of their ships to help you). Then i would attack them as well as you can. If that doesn't work i'd start a new game it's fun replaying the early levels anyway. :smallbiggrin:

I suck at Tribal/Civilization stages. I allied with the first tribe, and the other three popped up as sworn enemies and all attacked me at the same time. I had made it far enough along to start the Civilization, where I again allied with one, and then started to take over the rest. Well, my ally converted almost the entire map while I captured two cities, and then they decided they didn't need me anymore and wiped me out. Luckily, I had gotten far enough to unlock the space stage, was is kinda fun.

So far, I'm fairly disappointed in Spore. Cell and Creature were a lot of fun, but the RTS stages have really poor controls. Space could go either way.

I found the tribal really easy. The first time I did it, I won in less than an hour. The last time I did it (on hard) was with my omnivore (above). I did it without deaths. In civ, my main suggestion is donations. You can get up to +120 relationships from gifts alone. Ally with EVERYONE, and take cities sparingly. I nearly did the civ stage without deaths, but one of my cars was eaten by an epic creature :(

LISTEN. Whether or not is an "official" day backed by some government or other authority figure doesn't mean anything. Holidays are created organically by people coming together and deciding to celebrate or mourn or respect or do something. Sometimes people do just decide to create a holiday

I good example would be Kwanzaa, the American holiday celebrating African heritage created by Ron Karenga back in the 60s. People went along with it because they felt it was worth a holiday.

Talk Like a Pirate Day was created by two guys at a tennis court over thirteen years ago and has since spread into an incredible sensation. Its been given media coverage and everything. But that doesn't matter. What matters is whether we decide to do something about it or not, whether we decide to give a damn.

I wonder if I should officially state in canon that Q has taken the mad scientist prestige class..... *ponders*
