Jarl Bloodwolf Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I am creating a successor chapter of the White Scars that is asian themed. I am not going to go all out with the theme I would like for it to be fairly subtle and I have most of it set. But I need help concerning gene seed, I would like to have a mutation of either the Sus-an membrane or the catalepsean node or both. I am looking for ideas on how these can affect the chapter in a meditative way. Maybe one enhances them psychicly and gives them visions or one dosen't work properly so they have to meditate regularly. And I know I could just have them meditate as normal because it is recorded that marines do that in there prayers and such but I want something unique. Also this chapter is not a bunch of Buddhist monks in space or shaolin monks.

Wildfire Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 1. You should probably wait longer than 5 hours before asking why no one's answered. 2. I think people probably feel you've answered your own question.

Jarl Bloodwolf Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 Really? 5 hours isn't enough time for someone to answer one question? I'm sorry but that just seems stupid (and no I'm not calling you stupid) but it dosen't take 5 hours to answer a question and I'm sure if I haden't said anything this post would have died. And as for answering my own question I just gave 2 general examples of what I am looking for, my question is concerning other suggestions that people have. I don't mean to seem rude or anything but it's not like I posted a multi page story (which when I have responses came back in less than 5 hours). I did a follow up post to keep the post alive where people can see it. If no one has any ideas then I'll stick with what I've got but if the post isn't there for people to see no one can reply. It wasn't out of impatience or anything like that and again I'm not insulting you or trying to be rude.

Heru Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Really? 5 hours isn't enough time for someone to answer one question? The Liber Astartes board is one of the slowest on the whole site. It can go for over twelve hours without a single post. So yes five hours isn't enough.

Grey Hunter Ydalir Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 ++ Am I going to have to do the polite speech all over again? If someone grates you, be like cheese and lie there and don't say anything. - Ferrata ++ As to answering your own question: Maybe one enhances them psychicly and gives them visions or one dosen't work properly so they have to meditate regularly. There you go. Also this chapter is not a bunch of Buddhist monks in space or shaolin monks. There are plenty of other cultures in the world who have similar practices. Hell you can even pull something like the berzerker 'trance' that the viking berzerkers went into, or some of the other similar types of warriors from those dark age cultures. Warrior trances, meditative prayer or just plain old calm meditation.

Ferrata Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Jarl, I would like to remind you not to bump your own threads - it ain't cool. For further notice, 5 hours is not enough time for someone to come and answer the question. You posted just before midnight on a Thursday, that means everyone in Asia is in bed, and those in Europe/Britain are going to bed. There are only Americans awake - so the board is slower. Chillax, take in some other posts and I'm sure your writing would not have been stiffled if you had to wait until morning.
