video; un: ROCKET | happiness is a warm gun

[beatupgrass]

[Here we have Rocket, our local raccoonoid, contributing his part of the planning.]

So I don't know shit about dragons, but I do know a few things about fightin' giant monsters, and I want these dudes to fail so bad in their stupid plan that they die humiliated. That would give me an extreme amount of satisfaction. So! I got a proposal.

See, everybody's got their little contributions to this cause, and this is mine- I build things. Specifically, I build gadgets. Tech, weapons, bombs... Mostly those last two. The problem is that unless y'all want me to start ripping non-essentials off the station while those Natha jerks are off on vacation or whatever, I don't have the materials to arm everybody who wants it.

Ergo if you want bigger and badder weapons, you need to come to Wyver and bring me whatever you got that I can make something worth your while with. We'll discuss the payment particulars later.

What types of bombs are you capable of making?

[ He's too ye olde for anything fancy but bombs seem straightforward enough to use. ]

[beatupgrass]

The kind that blow up and the kind that do other things, but generally people want the blowing up kind.

Unless you're talking about the difference in boom sizes, and that's where there's some math involved.

[pebblestone]

[ Definitely the kind that go boom but also he has to take a step back and ask: ]

The kind that do other things? What other things?

[beatupgrass]

Y'know... Make smoke clouds, disable electrical equipment. That kinda thing.

[pebblestone]

[ Fascinating. ]

Impressive, but I think I'll stick to the regular explosive type of bomb. Unless you think you can make enough smoke clouds to blind even a giant dragon.

[beatupgrass]

I don't know a whole lot about dragons, but I think they're generally pretty okay with smoke, 'cause of that fire breath thing.

[pebblestone]

I'll take that as a no.

[ Strike that one off the list. ]

What will you need for a standard bomb then?

[ Please don't say an entire refrigerator. ]

[beatupgrass]

That depends. If you wanna go super old school, you can always see if any of the locals make homemade soap.
