He didn't see a room having been assigned for him, so after spending some time just wandering he opens his holocomputer and runs a thermal scan to see if it picks up anyone hotter or colder than normal.

I have a flash bang prototype though." He sets a white disc down. "Your abilities are likely what can trigger your freeze cluster, correct? I'd need to find the proper agent if I was to employ something."

He slides over the three clusters, roughly five inches in diameter, he currently has for Silas to inspect as well. All three seem to have different plating but that's all that's obvious from a glance. "I get to cut out the middle-man, sure, but I don't think it'd bee too difficult for you considering..." He just motions toward Silas somewhere, but doesn't finish that statement. Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

If taken part he sees there's a metal oxidant mix of magnesium and potassium nitrate! "That's true, but still the trial and error takes time." Silas looks at the platings to see what they're made of and if he can take them apart.

"The end-game is so worth it. Ever play any of the Batman: Arkham games from way back when? Freeze clusters? So intense." Silas will see things he recognizes but the player doesn't exactly know how to describe! Just that they plating reacts harshly to his intense temperature change. He can take them apart, as well, and he'll see nothing but water within. Any typical agents for cooling/heating would be absent, as per his power.

That might be a lie and all of his gadgets might be based off Bat-family characters. "But I'll move them higher on my list. So far I've been prioritizing based on who I come across. If someone proves to be an issue, they become a higher priority."

"Makes sense. Well you've got a cluster prototype right in front of you - feel free to take one or three, try out a few agents to see what you get. I've got about fifty of these with slight modifications so trial and error won't be as much of a chore." He finishes a fourth cluster and tosses it up in his palm. Then he cools his body down and chucks it at a nearby tree, and the cluster explodes into a slushy mess. "... at least it works." Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

He looks when he throws it, back to the one in his hand, and to Valo a second time. "...what would you like in return?"

One of your own prototypes." Valo glances at Silas, then continues tampering with an additional cluster. He then shrugs. "Figured that falls under the whole "second set of eyes" thing we talked about." Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

There are now five disc colors: black, red, yellow, blue and white. There's a grappling gun and what looks like a laser tag pistol (though lacking in much of barrel so a label maker might be a more accurate description).

This-" He pulls the pistol from the belt. "-has been one of my more time consuming projects. It's a radiation gun that fires a condensed beam that specifically targets nerve clusters. It's based on a weapon of the same design from the Chthonic Empire, though my design is more portable requiring a longer recharge period between shots."

To pack the same punch I would have to sacrifice the practicality of size. Perhaps I could build a much larger cannon, but it obviously wouldn't be practical for every day use..."
