Macronomicon

More Suggestions for Calvinian summoning.

The Skill is super lean in terms of choices, *it has 3* I need some more to backfill into the chapter I'm going to release in a couple hours. I already know which one i'm gonna pick, just need more for lvl 20 and beyond.

It’s that time of year again

If you’re one of the handful of people that’s been around since the beginning, you may have heard i’d be gone to the hospital for a thing around this time.

that was barely noticed because I was able to bring a laptop in and do my chapters abroad.

starting next Monday I’ll be in the hospital, for a week, hopefully with a new laptop.

Hopefully I can get a nice one and it doesn’t shit the bed, and hopefully everything goes smoothly enough that nobody notices anything.

Chapter 227: Insurance

The monster holding them captive blinked, pulling itself out of it’s thoughts as it tried to copy her movements.

“Where’s Caitlyn?”

“She went out for groceries.” Alicia said, glancing up from her cards to inspect the doppleganger in front of her. Because the monster was bound by some verbal agreement not to cause Garth apprentices physical harm, he was instead ‘cobbling together’ his own version of Alicia and Caitlyn to use as infiltrators, using what he called ‘ch...

WotR Chapter 64: Confidence

Calvin stood in the center of the road, hands warm in the pockets of his vest. Standing with your hands in your pockets was frowned on in Gadveran military doctrine, he was told, but Calvin felt like he’d earned it. Sixteen years getting beaten by a Malkenrovian Frontliner counted as an achievement.

“You’re late. I’ve only got half an hour left.” Calvin said as Brendan and Charlotte approached at the head of a battered army of twenty-five hundred. Half their original number....

Dupdomancy Abilities+ Mutations Suggestions

I realized I've never given this an actual list.

Multi-Split: User may duplicate multiple discrete objects at once, up to mass limit.

^Used for creating objects with separate moving parts out of solid materials. a ball and chain, a bicyle, a handgun. etc.

And that's all I really came up with. Suggestions for abilities and Mutations welcome!

Chapter 226: The Clone Wars

Dr. Daniels ran through the labyrinthine halls in the shape of a fox, thinking furiously.

Dr. D’s proprioception was telling him he was thousands of miles outside the planet’s atmosphere, which was silly… unless he was in space.

Why the hell am I out in space?

I thought The Fertility was a regular ship or a secret sex club, or both, but no, apparently my clone has created a…

Dr. Daniel’s foxy jaw gaped as he came out into the simulated day...

WotR Chapter 63: The Crying Game

“Is that really you?” Baroke asked as they marched along the path carved into the cliff face, aiming for the relatively lightly defended wall they’d given up.

No sorceress to stop him from burning everyone and everything in it, either. One more push and he’d –

“Stop poking me,” Calvin said, swatting Baroke’s hand away from his shoulder. “Yes, it’s me.”

“prove it.”

“Best time ever.”

“Nah, she could have overheard that, tell me something only...

Chapter 225: War Pigs

“We bring this, the third annual meeting of the Order of Transhemispheric Doppleganger Twins, to order.” Garth said, slamming the gavel down before returning it to ash.

The four of them were sitting in a hastily constructed cabin in the middle of the swamps of Kurm, just Nabeya, Garth, Dr. D, and Veneer. Terrible name. Caitlyn and Alicia were writhing around on the ground as they made drug-induced contact with their driving epiphanies.

“First order of business, ...

WotR Chapter 62: Operation Crossdresser

One of the Guys

Calvin shivered as his shoulders compacted, bones thinning and hips widening as he went through the last of the transformation to become a carbon copy of the only humanoid within one hundred feet.

Calvin held his hand up between himself and a pale Nadia, who was looking at him like a person looks at a Widowmaker stalking the village square in the dead of night.

He inspected his hand, now thin and feminine, matching Nadia’s pe...

Chapter 224: Veneer

The bench is fucking cold, Alicia thought, her head in her hands as she waited for Garth’s message to make it’s way to whoever it needed to make it to.

Not how I thought I’d be spending my time here, butt freezing off because they couldn’t be bothered to get me a pair of pants. Bastards, all of them, but especially Garth.

“May I ask your business?” the guard’s voice came from around the corner, his voice dry from boredom.

“I’m here to talk w...

WotR Chapter 61: Copy Calvin’s Concerns

“Okay, here we go,” Calvin said, focusing on himself, mentally drawing a tight bubble around his entire body.

He’d tried copying bugs and small animals when he had first gotten Dupdomancy, and he knew the results were living copies, but he’d never thought he’d be using it on himself.

He’d never really wanted to, considering that the copy would only last an hour, along with a total lack of ability to cast spells. That and the question of whether or not Calvin ...

Chapter 223: Rigorous Negotiations

“My counter offer is I cut off your head and take control of this ship!” the elder said, her Lantern brightened, forming a galaxy spiral with wispy threads emerging from between her fingers.

“Kya!” The ship’s avatar dove behind a potted plant.

Garth stared at the elder for a moment then took a long, slow drink, finishing the rest of his cup.

“How’s that working out for you?” Garth said, going back to the refreshments and refilling his cup. Dying was thirsty wo...

WotR Chapter 60: Becoming the Villain

“Take a moment to look at things from my perspective,” Calvin said, wiping the globule Diane had spat on his cheek.

“Never.”

“I’ve got…eh, forty or so prisoners while behind enemy lines, and I can’t risk letting them go until the Ilethans – that’s you – are already aware of my presence.

Calvin was giving the speech to their newest female POW, a tough-as-nails wagon driver responsible for delivering goods from Surrak to Brendan. His speech had evolved slowly...

Chapter 222: Bid High

“So Rigor, what does docking feel like for you?” Bel asked with a nervous chuckle. “I’ve never…done that before.”

Veyers wanted to sigh and drop his forehead into his palm, but he refrained. He’d never been trained for anything like this, but that didn’t mean he didn’t understand the stakes at hand.

The snickering of his crewmembers while the Elder wasn’t paying attention didn’t make it any easier, though.

“Pleasant, I suppose, What with the added stabilit...

WotR Chapter 59: Strategy Vs. Tactics

Calvin reincorporated behind the wall, the terrible cold returning along with his body as he fell to his knees, shivering.

Damn, this could have been over already if I’d gotten rid of their commander.

No time for getting his body temperature back. He needed get up and get moving.

Hope I don’t lose Grant. A little. Losing the old soldier stung more in the sense that it was a loss of a capable teacher rather than any emotional attachment. ...

Chapter 221: The Hand Job

“Where is my badge, sire?” Caitlyn asked, hands folded over each other in as dignified a posture as she could manage.

“Your badge?” Maken senior asked.

“This one,” Caitlyn said, pointing at her upper left shoulder, where Garth insisted everyone wear their badges.

“Ah, I knew something was different. That was it.”

Cailtyn was also wearing a candlestick strapped to her head by a strap of cloth she’d cut from her sheets for the purpose of testing her new B...

New suggestions for talking to Girls?

It's been awhile since the first iteration, lets have some extra oddballs we can throw in there.

Chapter 58: Stalemate

“You son of a-“ Black Bent filled her wrists as she pointed a clawed hand at him, waiting to be unleashed.

She stopped herself, taking a deep, steadying breath, her free hand stemming the bleeding of the small puncture wound on her chest.

“Listen young man, if you keep fighting tooth and nail like this, I’m going to be left with no recourse but to kill you. You don’t want that, right?”

Calvin couldn’t help letting out a chuckle. Captured again? This was beginni...
