Do we really need to given that it is the Gaiden?

Who's Candor?

Not really, I just can't see Cyanea being upset with it, which is why I was wondering about the deaging mentally. I don't know, what do you guys think is funnier, Cyanea being stoic about it, or Cyanea being mentally the same age she is physically?

Betting five bucks it's Candor's fault.

@Bloodplum: I think the latter might be a bit more amusing.

@Aqua: ...Figures that would be the only option so far that makes sense...

Gomorrahala

Mythological inspiration: The Biblical damned city, which always struck me as being damnded for just having a bunch of rape-y assholes than, say, any sexual practices.

Other inspirations: The Last Of Us

A near plant like Grimm that resembles a pillar of a salt in its resting state. When active, it begins to "bleed" a red mucus that quickly evaporates into a black cloud.

The Gomorrahala resembles the [those zombie wasps] in how it co-opts humans and faunus but it does so differently. It is more psychic than physical, the black cloud infecting those who suffer with negative emotions, much like most Grimm are attracted too.

As the spores inside the person grow, it strips them of their intelligence and their empathy, turning them into sadistic brutish monster. As they spread misery, the spores are able to further spread. Eventually, the spores calcify and the host body is transformed into another pillar of "salt".

Most frightening of all is how certain people are immune to Gomorrahala. Those who are already sadistic and psychopathic keep their intelligence and the spores never grow far in them. They are carriers however, able to walk calmly among people and spread the infection. What is worst is how people like that may develop command over the lesser infectees

People with awakened aura are immune as well.

I got a question, why doesn't everyone have an awakened aura?

Also bored, Isano, want to do a after bit from the ultimate plot?

Plum, Insano's still firewalled out, unfortunately.

I mean like general citizens? It's not like you can actually DO anything with it without training, and it's not like doing it en mass would cause things like an increase in crime, since anybody doing crimes would likely have their aura awaken by someone who is already a criminal and be trained that way.

Where does Isano live that he only has access to one computer?

I feel it requires intense training, or is something only a select few people can do.

.... Pyrra did it in like ten seconds to Jaune, who has no training. While I guess we can argue that she's a pretty badass case, it seems to be that anybody with an awakened aura could do the same.

or is something only a select few people can do.

See the second part, it is quite possible this is the strict screening beacon has.

And why Jaune got in, despite being... well himself, who would kinda not pass any normal definition of strict screening compared to every one else.

Honestly, I kind of want to see what badass cheating Jaune did to get into a renown hunter school with fake transcript. That'd be a fantastic fiction, Jaune the super hacker.

wild mass guessIt requires effort, inverse proportional to how much you have in potentia.

Jaune had a lot, it require little effort to awaken, but Pyrrha was going out on a limb there.

Well he was literately the first friend she made that didn't get all starry eyed or buddied up just because she was famous so she was probably super hoping.

Me neither. I liked having all the options to the left as a sidebar.

...Figures. Everyone leaves after I say that. And since I have writer's block, I can't just make a post myself. Might as well drown my sorrows with the Simpsons...

Honestly, I don't really know how to proceed, on top of Easter preparations likely going to take me away from the net.

I promise to figure something out by tomorrow. ^_^;
