Question From PandaBear
Submitted on 11/21/2009
Dear Laura,
My Norn says all the time "angel learn CAOS". I was surprised and I rubbed my eyes. I have closed my game. Before I start my game again, I have a odd question: How do I teach my Norn CAOS? I'm afraid that she is going to be angry.

If Norns, Ettins and Grendels had access to CAOS and were able to create COBs and Agents, what weird and wacky inventions do you imagine they'd come up with? Discuss.
I reckon my Norns would come up with a device that turns any object into cheese. At least they'd never go hungry!

That is remarkably close the first idea that popped into my head. xD
So, second thought: they'd make all walls permeable.
You have to be honest with yourself when you are writing. If that leads to somewhere unexpected then perhaps you really needed to go there.

I can see a Bondi Norn inventing a way to turn all those pesky underwater areas to open air. All the better to munch on those tasty crobsters, and no drowning!
Wow, that's like giving all us humans the ability to become gods. I'm sure eventually they'd end up completely tearing apart the fabric of their world!
I can imagine other things... Grendels make the Norns uber-horny, so they have enough eggs to carry and Norns to kill, Etttins spawn gadgets from nothing and Norns self... well, they do just anything XD
Lets play plants! Photosynthesis... Photosynthesis... Photosynthesis...
They'd bypass the Grendel entirely and go straight for the Hand.
