#theres gecko's too

[thelargek]

Every night at least two frogs hang out on my window. I've seen as many as 7. It is the most pure thing.

[yrwnrsk]

if I ever made a benny companion mod, the companion quest would be about exploring his relationship with his tribal past and his whack ass present. one of the outcomes of the quest would be him finally being able to get a fucking melee weapon, as his stats reflect. he gets a bat and a knife in his inventory

[cinnabeat]

i cant stop thinking about the fucking lizard

[leolaroot]

im trying to imgine a pet that monk could handle and actually enjoy owning. dog no fucking way he hates those beasts cat no way shed too much and claws in his furniture rabbit no too much hair ant colony no i think he would be afraid of the ants. lizard no they stinky poop. fish. maybe but the tank low key sucks hes doing like 50% water changes Daily theres no fucking nitrogen cycling here NO plants NO decor maybe a single layer of substrate. then a hugeeee filter system that he scrubs daily. and the fish is miserable a little bit. but i dont GUYS i think he just wouldnt own pets. he wouldnt want to no matter how much i think he would potentially benefit mental health wise by owning perhaps a leopard gecko or oh a tank of shrimp. god you know..YOU KNOW WHAT. I GOT IT. MARIMO BALL.

whats the arch i havent played aj in years

the arch was a prize from the spring egg hunt back in early 2018, similar to the trellis and gazebo items. it was part of a set essentially.

i remember it specifically because i had hosted an ingame wedding for my friend, and drawn art alongside it which i'd posted on my (now deactivated) deviantart account. the thing is, the arch doesnt exist. theres no evidence of it having ever existed, aside from artwork i did that ALSO doesnt exist anymore. theres no information on the wikipage, no hidden images anywhere, no scrap of info anywhere in the depths of deleted or unreleased items.

"oh but brody youre making it up then. or you misremembered [x other archway item]."

WRONG.

at the time of the animal jam wedding, the only other feasible item i could've mistaken the archway for was the passion flower item, which 1) bears no resemblance to the spring egg hunt items 2) was out of stores at the time and did not return until later that year. for a little cringe jammer such as myself it was TOO rare for me to get my grubby little paws on. i mean just look at this thing.

"but what did it look like? maybe i remember it!" UNFORTUNATELY, JAMMER. the only imagery i have of my beloved arch is a mockup made years ago by jamblr user @gecko-plushie, which, for those interested, still does not accurately depict the arch as i remember it. the real arch was wider and rounder, with two shades of wood.

NONETHELESS. the arch is real. any jammer who doubts me will be sent to the pit alongside graham and all those other dreadful nonbelievers

[bulbabutt]

i understand theres 193 episodes of 87 so i get why people wouldnt watch all of it (like anything thats description says don turtelli is in it, skip it, trust me, you do not want to see that) BUT if anyone wants a list of good 87 tmnt episodes i started making one when we hit s4

id say watch s1 theres only 5 episodes and its the set up for the show but if you just want to put on some fun stuff heres a list i made while watching it (thus it is missing other good episodes cuz i only thought to do so halfway through the binge once we kept getting banger after banger)

raphael meets his match [the mona lisa episode, if you watch this you will understand why she kept coming back even tho shes only in this episode, shes an icon]

rebel without a fin [just genuinely one of the funniest episodes]

what's michelangelo good for [mikey talks to animals and proves his worth to the team]

donatellos degree [really good donnie ep, really good irma moments]

the big cufflink caper [the turtles join the mob, this premise alone sells it]

raphael drives em wild [raph bodyswaps with a new york cab driver]

michelangelo meets mondo gecko [need i say more?]

napoleon bonafrog colossus of the swamp [absolutely goofy, but i love the punk frogs, and april forklift certified confirmed]

raphael vs the volcano [raph thinks hes going to die so he becomes a superhero]

donatellos duplicate [donnie makes an evil clone]

leonardo the renaissance turtle [the turtles give up fighting crime cuz of a robo cop but Leo doesn’t trust it, really good Leo moments]

adventures in turtlesitting [second baby turtle episode, this time with big brother mikey]

return of the turtleoid [i just like the little turtle man ok]

shreekas revenge [krangs ex comes to town, he proposes to shredder, and this episode is a meme you cannot miss this one]

too hot to handle [donatello almost throws down with a 10 year old]

night of the dark turtle [donatello becomes batman, this one was clearly commentary on btas taking over as the popular kids cartoon so its SOOO funny abt it]

combatland [duplicate turtles, a donnie raph team up, best ending freezeframe]

shredder triumphant [the actual shows finale before it had to get edgy and all the people behind it changed hands, really good send off]

RvB Pets yap session

Alright so i've got a few of these down right. so this whole pet assigning thing started with me imagining sarge with a puppy, and naming that puppy warthog. ITS SO FUCKING UCTE urggg "get in the warthog" fucking dog trots over at the sound of his name "no! warthog stay! down boy." and then theres just a whole bit where hes tryna get warthog to back off or sum idk its silly. What breed of dog would this be though? See I was thinking toy poodle because while i feel like he wouldnt choose it, its cute as fuck so who gives a shit right? Bernese Mountain Dog. Think about it, I did. For a good like 10 minutes while leaving my friend on read because i was thinking so fucking hard. So we either have a toy poodle or bernese mountain dog and I cant get over it, the two are the most best guesses ive got. He walks into the shelter, donut or some1 bringing him there for wtv and he sees this tiny ass toy poodle chewing on a blue dog toy and boom, its his tactical toy poodle he has in his manly tactical purse. While bernese is like so insanely silly its great, the dog knocking sarge over in excitement and sarge trying to order him to attack grif but giving up with a nuetral grunt and saying. "maybe tmrw" or smth ITS SO FUCKING ISLLLY but also maybe beagle just trhowing that out theres would be so sfucking silly too OKAY and then after that we move on to donut right? i got this one almost immediately, parrot. no questions needed, parrot. I cant exactly see donut with parrot.

We get to grif right, Lizard. HEar me out, grif with a bearded dragon. not sure why not sure how but holy shit i fucking love it man.

Doc. See this ones a bit hrmmm not sure because it has to satisfy both doc and omalley and i for somereason think; golden retreiver. doc would have tried to suggest smaller dogs, hes likely looking for a dog ok to be like near people and maybe even like be atherapy dog and omalleys like fuck that these dogs r for pussies and then doc gets to golden retreiver and hes like, i mean sure and boom silly.

Simmons, bunny or guinea pig. feels right.

Tucker, like the legend this mother fucker is. has a snake, simmons kkeeps his distance as things have likely happened multiple times on purpose or not. chicks dig snakes. (im chicks(im a whole male))

caboose already had a pet. RIP.

Church honestly not sure with this dude, could also see him having a lizard or cat. confusing fella. OH MY GOD WAIT hedgehod im sorry it has to be done church with a hedgehog i need it.

Washington, cmon guys you see this shit coming. cat. obviously.

Now if lopez to able to have a pet, right? id like to think maybe a small dog, and he wouldnt out right look for it but he'd find it right, it would have 3 legs and probably be struggling a bit to get around and lopez would take him in and make like a little wheelchair thingy for the little dog and then they become best friends.

tex? not sure honestly, maybe she'd think having a pet is dumb? and i think carolina would just like not be into it really.

drgrey. lizard but not like bearded dragon but like maybe leopard gecko? or maybbe switch dr grey and grif? not sure im confused now but alright reptile awesome possum

Locus. Dove. Locus with a dove, hear me out. It was injured and he helped it out and now its his friend.

felix the bitch would have a snake not because they r evil or anything but felix thinks it makes him look badass, and it does.

give me more characters i want to do mor eof this NEOW

EDITT!!!

KAI TY TO WHOEVER SAID THIS honestly not sure for her hrmmm,, i feel like she'd have a parrot or a turt for some reason not exactly sure why but i do

ball python, leopard gecko, and ranchula enclosures more details under cut

ball python: 40 gallon enclosure. newly bioactive, featuring a fern and isopod colony. couple inches of substrate mix (includes coco fiber, peat moss, fir bark, etc) topped with mosses, leaf litter, and cork bark. sits around 70-80% humidity. 2 hides, used to have 3 but she never used the last one. the uvb lamp is mostly for the plant, but i do like giving my animals a day/night cycle so its helpful for that too. heat mat is on the left side, and thats usually the hide she prefers to hang out in. i really like checking back and seeing the new holes the isopods have eaten into the bark :P

leopard gecko: 20 gallon enclosure. half sand-soil mix, half packed-soil mixed in with things like cork bark and other padding for variation, firmer in some places than others. the sand provides digging material, something he enjoys doing often... it always looks different when i check in. theres some leaf litter and mosses on the soil side purely for more texture variation. the humidity matches my room which tends to be around 30-40%. colorado is dry. 4 hides across the enclosure. 2 succulents under the uvb lamp.

egg is actually featured in the photo, see if you can find him

taranchula: very simple in comparison to the other two. just coco fiber and some leaf litter. he has set up in the log hide and is webbing it to his liking, doesnt leave often.

[ackee]

ok for dragon stuff, immediate thought is like. Komodo dragon, bearded dragon, or Chinese water dragon bc of the name. Basilisk lizards are also kinda that, and theyre well known bc they can run on waterAlso- depending on the kinda vibe you wanna go for that might influence what reptiles u take inspo from. Like my main thoughts are "full fursona", where it's anthro but got a lizard head, "Demi human" where it's kinda like. Person with lot of reptile traits and/or like lamia stuff (snake bottom human top), or "shifter" which could give u a gradient of being more human or draconic at diff times.Also there's the question if u wanna include wings as a big part of the dragon, bc there's some like gliding lizards and snakes (the gliding lizard is called Draco I just looked it up bc I couldn't remember the name so. Nother dragon name 👍. Snakes r Chrysopelea) Also if u wanna give an elemental vibe, here's some stuff:Water: obv Chinese water dragon, but also marine iguanas swim. Basilisk for the running thing too lol. Sea snakes are really cool (and often super venomous)- I love sea snakes so much it's unreal. Special shout outs to sea kraits, love those guys (and sea kraits arent fully aquatic so theres a bit more leeway to have the character on land like. Real world logic wise). You could also play with gators/crocs/caimans or fresh/saltwater turtles if you wanna branch out. Also anacondas hang out in waterFire: not lizards but you could take inspo from salamanders (technically inaccurate but derives from old times- salamanders would hang out in logs, and when ppl tossed the logs into the fire they'd run out, so it looked like they were emerging from the fire). There's not a huge amount, but gila monsters might also be a good choice bc of their coloring (and living in hot places)Earth: basically most desert reptiles I'd say. Immediate thought is horny toads (small fat very cute and also yes they are called that). Gila monster again. Rattlesnakes, Kingsnakes (which eat rattlesnakes bc they are resistant to their venom), and since I mentioned turtles you could do a tortoise thing? Also some snakes will steal other animals burrows after they eat themPlant: iguanas (not marine), vine snakes (they're so skinny), eyelash vipers (icons), most geckos (crested, anoles, etc) chameleon, some monitorsAir: mostly the gliding reptiles I mentioned before lol Some other special mentions for interesting reptiles: elephant trunk snake, legless lizards, skinks, gaboon vipers (FAT) that one snake whose tail looks like a spider. I feel like I had more but I think my brain is fryingANYWAY reptiles are so cool! This is definitely kind of just a massive blast of diff reptiles lmao. If there's a specific vibe you're going for I could maybe narrow it down to reptiles that fit better lol!

THANK U THANK UUUUU‼️‼️

Can I just say I love how stupid baja looks?? I wanma squish em!!!

/pos!/gen/lh

Can u tell me about Baja more?? I really really like them dnjfkfk

Baja considers this a high compliment, baja is also the texture of a gecko, so pretty squishy fgchgjvhxf Shadows had baja for almost the full 500 years! One afternoon shadow woke up after recovering from his darkling form (~25-30 years old) and wam bam pow theres a tiny palm sized baja disregarding personal space and making DIRECT eye contact with Shadow. Baja is shadows personal darkling eye, as shadows the heir to the black arms, and Bajas mission is eternal loyalty to Shadow and assisting him in reviving their species. Shadow doesnt know this yet. Young baja tried to bite and eat everything in their line of sight (they still try occasionally, but theyve been scolded out of the habit by shadow), including the delicious flesh of all non Shadow mobians. They managed to knock this off pretty early through substituting with raw freezer meat and ham cubes. Ham cubes are like Bajas cat treats, if they even hear the sound of the plastic opening they are there. waiting. Baja also likes mimicking shadows quills and resting between them, their tendrils trying to imitate loose quills. Additionally, theyve picked up on how to mimic lifeforms Mobians deem cute in order to get what they want, so they have an array of chirps squeaks purrs peeps and chao noises in their vocal bank. Sonic and Co have also taught them horrible memes n shit, like a living steam deck. They are very affectionate and love getting pet by Shadow, took them a long while to get warmed up to everyone else though. Baja has also been trying to form the hive with shadow for many many many years, but shadows mental barriers were too strong for a weak baby baja to bypass. They managed to connect to shadow in 1000YB way earlier than Happy auau because shadows grief started to consume and weaken him, they have a stronger bond, but at the trade off shadows instability lead to him misusing their bond and abilities. Baja may not have connected to shadow for a couple hundred extra years in HA, but theyre pretty satisfied with all the affection and love they receive.

hi its phantom-tamer oc again this time im just dropping a batch of things u made up for phantoms ahdvdjfm

- hypercarnivores that will regurgitate anything that isn’t meat out of their stomaches. They can drink water too, but prefer blood

- they have barbed tongues, meant for licking blood and meat off of bones and also for preening one another

- in my version they’re not undead mobs, but their equivalent of burning in sunlight is getting blinded if theres too strong of a light source (eg sun or glowstone)

^ - if they’re forced to look at bright sources of light they can become permanently blind within minutes :(

- phantoms generally live in groups of colonies up to 10-50 (depending on habitat, could be even more)

^ - some people refer to groups of phantoms as “nightmares” much in the same way you’d call a group of bats a cauldron :]]

- phantoms rely heavily on camouflage when hunting in groups.

^ - this also means that whenever a phantom happens to be born with albinism, it is almost always eaten no matter how old it may be

- within phantom colonies, they tend to travel around area to area but typically reside in biomes with bad weather or dense forests usually with fog. anything bright is a no no (caves are also a good nesting spot but are more risky with spiders willing to take a bite out of them)

- places where phantoms nest or reside are usually very visible: scratches on trees and torn off, mauled branches, bones littering the ground, the constant distant trilling of one.

^ - phantom nests r usually called “graveyards” :3

- phantoms have a VERY in depth communication system, almost akin to regular humans

^ - the most similar thing that is able to be compared to their communication system is sign languages: simple words or “meanings” that can string together a sentence just via specific calls, screeches, trills, etc

- their level of intelligence is the same of a 9 year old (able to recognize body language, remember faces, locate weak points on prey, etc)

^ - they can also feel emotions much the same (empathy, compassion, etc) which most people usually don’t realize about them (usually assuming its like a snake thing where they don’t feel affection) (but phantoms do!! my oc would know that with how some of her phantoms smother her in really unneeded affection)

^ - also kind of obvious but they can make really strong bonds with one another

- in my lil version they have two sets of eyes: one on top, aka the normal pair of eyes and then their bottom eyes

^ - lower eyes dont have eyelids, meaning they do the gecko lick thing, even in their sleep

- whenever they spot prey their top eyes diliate from a full green to two pinpricks of green in full black (essentially tracking their prey very closely)

- ALSO also in my version they dont have any back legs, having a somewhat wyvern shape with their bodies

^ - they perch via the claws on their wings (on like. The elbow part. or something idk what to call it)

- they have this sort of ribcage section on their bodies that is able to open— it has two main uses

1.) secretes stomach acid (which is. very strong) onto caught prey in order to soften them for biting

2.) childbirth (they just sort of spit the babies out)

- two rows of teeth (ouchie)

- male phantoms tend to be smaller in size but faster in speed, females tend to be larger (child holding reasons) (also to protect said children from potential attackers), have larger claws, and have more steady flight meant for long distances

- most colonies have some sort of leader; one that usually tends to be biggest and most brutal, and is the one that takes charge when finding new areas to nest in

- you probably guessed this already but they’re nocturnal :33 during the day when they sleep in their dark areas they hang upside down like bats, or hold onto branches with their wings spread out

^ - they have glowing markings that look similar to eyes and use it to scare away predators (similar to moths having eye camouflage!!)

- most phantoms find strength in numbers, meaning when one finds itself lost, old, or heavily injured the rest of the colony will usually leave it behind once it either doesn’t return or is unable to fly. (Phantoms that formed a strong bond with the sick phantom will usually offer comfort and fetch one last meal for them before killing them)

- phantoms are able to mimic cries and sounds from all kinds of species, usually being cries of horses or the whining from dogs, and very rarely human screams.

^ - there have been folklore made about those screams before people found out it was from phantoms

^ - they use said screams and cries to lure unsuspecting prey in

- phantoms have their own form of mating dances and courting !! this usually occurs in winter when the weather sucks and it gets darker quicker

^ - male phantoms will offer certain kinds of trinkets to appeal to a possible mate’s preference, show off to them, make a nest, or do some sort of feat to impress the potential partner

- above clouds and after hunting sessions, phantoms enjoy playing with one another (chasing, nipping one another’s tails, interlocking tails and going into free fall with one another for a moment, races, etc)

- baby phantoms are the sized of month-old kittens when first born :3 their diet also mainly consists of bugs and rodents until growing larger and consuming bigger prey

i love these vulture sized man eating blue wyverns .okay ramble over thanks 🗣️‼️

You inspired me! I’m at work so it’s on paper, but here’s some sketches!

I love the idea of phantoms being like… vulture sized. Perfect to pick up under an arm. They’d be really nice to use similarly to falcons— probably good to bring in to catch stray vexes or birds or whatnot!

I have made a couple headcanons off of yours, so feel free to bounce them around if you don’t have them already!

- Phantoms likely are a sort of… bat/snake mixture (I had some shark ideas too— face shape or teeth!) My drawings are somewhat… bat/snake/dragon/lizard/shark/bird combo… a lot of elements, lol.

- They’re surprisingly light for their size, averaging roughly 10-20 pounds (more similar to wild turkeys rather than condors, and perhaps lighter bones for easier flight)

- They have talons and feet similar to owls, with their third digit able to rotate so they can have it in the front or back for better grip on prey. They prefer to fly firstly, then crawl, then walk— they’re usually in the air!

- Maybe they could spit venom also? Like how you said with the stomach acid— they might just be able to spit it on cue, because it’s a little more accessible and would make their bites more of a nuisance to people. Good for defense too, especially for baby phantoms!

- On that note, they prefer to bite rather than claw. They’re notorious for their bites, with those rows of razor-sharp teeth (not to mention the bite strength of like. A parrot, if given a good shot), but they sometimes use their talons to pick up smaller prey like rabbits, chickens, parrots, baby animals in general, etc etc. I’d think they’d mostly eat on the spot, preferring to cache tiny little bits of food (or eating a good fill and keeping it in their crop for later) rather than trying to lug around whole kills…? Like. Eat a rabbit foot instead of carry a rabbit back, if that’s anything?

- Maybe they lay eggs? I feel like they’d have a good brood patch of sorts going on, their underbelly being super warm.

- Their outer ribs/bones thing going on is either the ends of their spinal column poking out for defense against predators (perhaps activated at will with the ribs, like that one newt species), some good coloration, or maybe even semi-translucent skin/scales!

- You mentioned second eyes! When I think of that, I imagine them to be more like iguanas— something sort of vestigial, a simple eye that detects movement and brightness. That way, they can stay alert to subtle changes that they might be blinded by something soon!

- If they get blinded as you say, rather than burning up as in game, I can only imagine the chaos after a sunrise when the phantoms are out late. You’d probably end up with a bunch of injured and half-blind phantoms on your doorstep (does your oc rehabilitate?).

- Their tail’s a little longer to act like a rudder! Instead of flapping sporadically like a bat, I feel they’d flap a little slower, but more determined… maybe even like swifts? Like, capable of gliding up at super big heights up in the wind columns, but they’d dive down and flap like sparrows to get back up to where they were to get another shot at it.

That’s all I can think of right this second, and it’s a pretty long train of thought! I haven’t really proofread all that much because I’m working a lot this week, but I’ll have more time soon! Thanks for your asks, I love hearing about it, phantom anon :) (phanon? Who knows) Anyways, have some drawings!

[terraliensvent]

god forbid any popular artist also have worth outside of their art, right? I mean seriously, you all are fucking crazy. these trial mods all seem to be capable people yet you really cannot take anything positively.

I think a lot of you forgot that they’re going to choose many more mods. Stopping pissing your pants because you weren’t chosen and be patient and understanding.

society expects 18 year olds to work, but once they are working on something that matters (in the grand scheme of life) LESS than real life jobs in food safety, childcare, etc. You all throw a tantrum?

you all say you have faith in Tycho until one thing you don’t like happens. One mod that wasn’t who you wanted? C’mon.

strongly agree with u anon, this is my thoughts exactly

i think people are being way too quick to jump on tycho because of how bad things have been before, the mod picks are not that bad at all and again, this is only round 1, there will be more

and there really isnt any justifiable reason outside, "geckoes is popular, comforthour is friends with tycho and also pretty young," like theres no evidence of them being bad or rude or having a shady history, its just pettiness for the sake of pettiness

again, if the full staff team picks come out and its ALL pop artists or ALL tychos friends, then ill have some complaints, but for now i think you guys are just really chomping at the bit to have something to post here about

[roronoasrighteye]

one piece brain rot pt. 2

plot twist! its me rating their arcs. (MY OPINIONS!!) ((some are in order?)

romance dawn: 6/10. Solid intro for the show though! Zoro'a episode was sad + funny

(more coming soon hihi)

[deepest-dope]

not to expose myself but i love scars so much i think they look cool af and i love just giving characters scars heres a compendium of scars i think jessup has since i cannot yet draw them for you or myself. yes they are almost all from stupid accidents no he is not embarassed of any of them

his nose has visibly been broken once or twice but also theres a scar from a hubcap frisbee incident. chance threw the hubcap too hard and jessup caught it with his face, so now jess has straight scar across his nose. bonus idea jessups nose does a weird whistle randomly during the day, and also when he sleeps. hes been trying to figure out how to whistle it on purpose since he got it.

on his left cheek is 2 or straight lines, middle one is deeper then the others, creeping all the way up into his hair line. this is from the gecko jessup fistfought to death to get his jacket leather. hes also missing a small chunk off the top of his ear. these are kinda faded though

theres one on his neck from running around with a knife without using proper safety techique and he tripped an fell one the knife leaving a puncture wound that was very luckily not too serious.

top surgery scars. you get it.

he has a big round bitemark looking thing on his side/waist from setting a bear trap on a hunting trip and almost immediately falling onto it. this is actually the one he thinks looks the coolest out of them all.

yet another bear trap scar on his calf. chance literally warned him he was about to step on one and he said “yeah i saw it” immediately before tripping right onto it...

while practicing aim with one of micros pistols he shot himself in the other calf because he wasnt using proper gun safety measures that micro JUST taught him. its his most faded scar by far but still very much there.

i think he has more but these are the ones he actually like remembers. between micro’s training and papa’s good raiding tactics he doesnt actually have many real battle scars. hes too good a warrior working for too good a leader.

[glacierbash]

ok i'll bite. who is gecko kenshi, why is she so cool, and why does she sit Like That?

The worms are flying OUT of this can. Gecko Kenshi time.

I started this Kenshi run ~6 months ago, where it was originally just Truth the bug guy. Gecko was the very first person I recruited. I went into a little outpost, talked to her, and she threatened to pull her pants down. I knew I needed her in my party now, so I ran around for 30 minutes to get enough money to recruit her.

Gecko is not martially skilled. She’s not a very good fighter. She can defend herself with a weapon, but that’s about it. What Gecko is, however, is STRONG. Specifically, Gecko is strong enough to carry a person without suffering a major speed loss. Situation 1 in which rhis was helpful: one hour after opening up the save again for the first time in months, I fuck up an assassination attempt and suddenly we’re being fought by two guys much stronger than us at fighting. Even though I have a party of 3, it’s bad. We win, but barely, and we just barely escape the city. Gecko collapses into the dying state, and Truth goes into a coma. It’s Spade (the third Kenshi freak) who saves both of them from bleeding out, but Spade no longer has a working right leg!! So she can no longer stand!!! After about 5 IRL minutes of terrified waiting, Gecko rises and I know what must be done.

I have Gecko pick up Truth and hide him, then I have her carry Spade and run until we find a place selling prosthetic limbs. Gecko carries Spade through a jungle raining acid, avoiding wildlife that can and would kill and eat them, all while Gecko is malnourished and starting to starve. She is still running at 20 MPH consistently. That is not a sprint. That is her jog. She carries Gecko into a town, buys her a leg, but—you can’t amputate in this game! You can’t just cut off limbs! So, the next best thing: have Gecko carry Spade over to a river of acid, so Spade can swim in it until her leg falls off, and then replace it with the prosthetic. It works!! And now Spade’s alive and well!

Second situation in which Gecko being strong and fast saves the day. My team needs a backpack, bad. Specifically to train their strength, but they need it. On my way to a shop that should sell some, however, I see a battle happening in the distance. It resolves before I reach it, but out charges the “Hungry Bandits,” the weakest faction in game. They will do nothing but rob you of your food. But, I’m carrying thousands of the in-game currently, cats, in food! And I know we’ll lose! Rather than run, however, I have EVERYBODY throw all their food into Gecko’s inventory, who takes off running and doesn’t look back. She far outpaces the bandit that follows after her, leading him to his tragic end at the point of a town guard’s blade.

Gecko returns to find the party bloody and knocked out, but alive. She heals them up, but just as the party goes to continue onwards, MORE bandits of a stronger faction spill out and attack the starving bandits, an all out bandit war where both of them agree they want to kill, or at least incapacitate, us. Gecko is the hero, but not by her fighting prowess or her bravery. Gecko runs, and fast. Once again, she grabs the town guard, who sprint out to put an end to this fighting. Gecko hides in the distance, staring at the carnage until it dies down, noticing that all three of her companions are in a recovery coma.

So, knowing that there’s sure to be more bandits in this little crossroad, Gecko goes and picks up one of the party members (a new recruit named Ruka), and carries her in town, and into a bed, which speeds up recovery by 8x. She goes and grabs Spade, healing her from the dying state before putting her, too, into a bed. All that leaves is Truth, but Gecko sees something terrible as she approaches: Slavers, approaching him. If they grabbed Truth, thered be almost no way to get him back, save for getting strong enough to raid the camp. The slavers could knock her out easily, but she wasn’t about to abandon her captain.

She charges in, picking up Truth, and just as the slavers point her out, she’s sprinting away. 20 MPH. She outruns even their fastest footsoldier, and they give up chase just as Gecko makes it into the third and final bed, putting Truth in before she stumbles downstairs to the bar, and orders herself a drink.

You see, Gecko sits like that because her back hurts from carrying the party. Truth may be the first character I made for this save, but Gecko is becoming my favorite. She’s a hero when she doesn’t wanna be. She’s survived being chased by an entire horde of bandits, getting shot in the head, and survived. She’s TWICE gotten people prosthetic limbs because Truth ALSO lost his leg, and she carried him. She’s the hero. She’s MY hero.
