Nice to see that fights aren't just about raw strength and that the right skill at the right time can end a fight before it even started.

Baam is going to be even more of a monster using that white noise skill whether or not he keeps the black march

SIU has set up a good scenario here, because no matter how ridiculous Baam is here, it just means he's going to draw that much more attention as a result. Like, so far he's got "beat a higher level Regular, used an orb, the Black March appeared in his hands," and he's probably is going to end up with "beat a Ranker as a low-level Regular" at this rate.

Maybe this is a thorn fragment?

I don't think so. All the Thorn Fragments originated on the Floor of Death, not whatever weird place Kallavan was at when Jinsung found him.

Maybe it's a piece of Baam's dad's soul idk? From what we know he'd be miserable about having had to murder all those people just to climb

I think it's just a power up McGuffin like any of the others we've seen so far. Lots of them around the tower.

Yeah, I'm getting no impression that this McGuffin is something specifically plot-relevant to Baam. Though it is interesting that Ha Jinsung thought it might make him a Slayer candidate, so I guess it's possible the guy whose power was put inside the crystal could be a Big Deal (otherwise how would this guy be a candidate to take on 10 Family people?).

It does bring up the question of what it takes to be a Slayer. Jinsung is probably the second most powerful dude in FUG behind Luslec and he's not a slayer. I guess they have to be indoctrinated early and built up as slayers instead of just being super powerful rankers who join FUG or something.

The slayers make no sense anyway since they can't actually kill family leaders

Jose posted:The slayers make no sense anyway since they can't actually kill family leaders Even without the ability to kill a family leader, people like Karaka have wiped out entire groups through sheer domination. So there still is a use for slayers, but maybe they should have a different name given they can't do the thing their name would imply; unless the dual meaning is that slayer = enforcer?

Its never really been clear whether or not FUG realise who baam actually is. Like turning him into a weapon using the thorn so anyone in FUG can kill a family leader makes sense but surely Luslec would go berserk if he was aware of who baam is and considering Rachel knows it'd be odd if he didn't

If Han Sung knew there's no way Luslec is unaware. Most of fug probably just thinks he's some irregular they can abuse. Gonna be real funny when they finally realize fug is a great family and bam is the head.

Luslec might be of the opinion that if anyone stopped Baam he's not really the child of Destiny. I'm pretty sure Luslec knows who Baam is because he gave Baam his name, which is not something we've seen with the other candidates.

Jose posted:The slayers make no sense anyway since they can't actually kill family leaders My guess about it was always that you had to possess some characteristic (like Baam being an Irregular) that lets you harm them. Karaka, as a son of Jahad, might qualify for this? Dunno about White, since there are plenty of other children of the Family Leaders; maybe just the way his power source could theoretically make him strong almost without limit. edit: I guess it also makes sense that they'd just make anyone who might be capable of killing Jahad a Slayer. After all, there's no way for them to really know without testing it, so it's possible they make Slayers/Slayer candidates out of anyone who has something weird going on with them that might make them get around Jahad's immortality (like White's weird situation, or Karaka being a son of Jahad).

Part of it is also most surely for propaganda purposes. Can't recruit a power base if you don't at least pretend to believe you can topple the King. White maybe gets around the restrictions by not being 1 person, but a melding of 5.

I don't think Slayers necessarily are meant to fight Jahad or the Family Leaders. I think, in essence, Luslec created them and FUG to kill the GIANT ARMY of rankers each family has so that the chosen one, our boy Baam, can fight the family leaders without getting teamed up on. Anyone with enough potential for power can qualify for this, even if they can't possibly kill a family leader due to the contracts with the admins. Kallavan certainly doesn't seem like he has any way to get around the contract, he's just ludicrously strong. It's been plainly stated enough that, unless you are an irregular, you can't do anything to the Family Leaders. And none of these guys in FUG are irregulars as far as we know (at least until we learn more about them but, I dunno, why didn't they boil them into a weapon?).

I think it was only Jahad that got the version of immortality which doesn't allow anyone within the Tower to kill him, the rest just got immortality. I think the contract also includes the other family heads in the "no killing Jahad" clause as well? I could be wrong. Since Karaka targets Jahad, I wonder if he's banking on getting around Jahad's invulnerability by being a "prince of Jahad." Wagnan looks so similar to young Jahad that I suspect they might be clones. Although it could be that just being a direct decedent is enough. Of course, you don't really need heirs if you're planning on living forever. Hodgepodge fucked around with this message at 23:35 on Dec 4, 2018 |

The various forms of immortality are poorly defined at this point and I wish they would be clarified. We know the family heads got some form of immortality and that Jahad has something extra on top of that (nobody is allowed to kill him?). Thing is, this all something granted by the floor guardians, so does it still count if the guardian is dead? It also seems implied that the bracelet from the hidden floor can do something special, possibly with relation to immortality.

Everyone got the immortality from the administrators except for hendo lok bloodmadder who specifically has to have loads of kids to die for him otherwise he isn't immortal Jahad isn't outright immortal from irregulars but he is apparently far stronger than all the others family heads

Presumably he pissed them off somehow.

I think the contract also includes the other family heads in the "no killing Jahad" clause as well? I could be wrong. With the exceptions of Bloodmadder and V, we know the family leaders are immortal to the point where Arlene literally could not kill herself despite being an irregular like the rest of them. We don't know what the deal with V was, and we know Bloodmadder only vaguely got his deal with a super big caveat because he's a shitlord for some reason. I don't know why Arlene's immortality would be any different from the rest of the Family Leaders. My guess is the reason everyone was on Jahad's side when he went to punish Arlene and V is Jahad might be the only one who can kill them. Which is why we have Mr. Keikkaku behind the scenes, seemingly helping Baam.

The wiki said that being unkillable was Jahad-only, but the reference didn't actually distinguish between Jahad and the other family leaders.
