New Gadget: The Debiginator
Posted: Sun Jun 16, 2019 4:37 pm
TL/DR: Splits a largo, may make tars.
The Debiginaotr (de.big.inator) is a portable slime tech that looks like three linked slime pedestals. The central one is a little larger and raised a bit. It also has cool blinky lights.
To set it up, the Debiginator is placed on a tech spot. To set it up properly, the player then shoots a largo into the central pedestal, and plorts into the two side pedestals, although food can also be used.
There are then flashes of light and puffs of smoke, which occur for very technical reasons and NOT just to look cool, the engineers would have you know.
During this, the largo is then separated into constituent parts by ways the engineers assure us are very peaceful and humane, and the resultant material is reconstituted around the two plorts.
The largo is place first. At this point, some of the blinky lights that form a ring around the side pedestals of the Debiginator light up a specific color. This color is based on the color of the slime that will be reconstituted on that pedestal. (Pink lights for a pink slime, dark amber for saber [*ahem*], purple for dervish, etc.)
Something must be placed on each of the Debiginator's side pedestal. When all three items are placed, the magical process begins automatically (magic not included).
If the correct plort is placed on the correct side pedestal, the original slime has a 75% chance of properly re-forming. If the slime's favorite food is placed (for pink slimes, this is anything), it has a 25% chance of properly forming.
A properly formed slime is a regular, normal-sized slime. It will sit on the pedestal for 60 seconds, waiting to be vacced up, or will then escape and wander off to do normal slime things.
An improperly formed slime is a Tarr. The lights at the base all turn red, and the Tarr will only be held for 5 seconds before escaping.
If BOTH slimes improperly form, the separation does not properly occur. The original remains, also corrupt as a Tarr. Further, the Tarrs are all immediately ejected, flying in different directions, as the Debiginator tries to protect itself.
Why would someone create this? FOR SCIENCE!!!
Thank you. :-)
