Funny. And that takes care of Atmospheric and Tactical Buildings.

The dreaded FRIENDZONE!

The dreaded FRIENDZONE!

Hahahaha, that's way funnier than it has any right to be.

'The capital city of the Friendzone, Justfriendistan, is said to be about as habitable as Negabloktrix's's oldest, unwashed undergarments, the sewers of the Immortal Palace (right below the Maniac's quarters), and Pedonuker's kindergartens.'

With Semaj and RM's excellent advice, I've added in the Red Transparent entry.

[pkbrennan]

For purple transparent you got to say something about warrior monks/knights with penchants for swearing - maybe obscene language causes Purple Transparent to materialise? Sod turning the air blue, turn it purple instead...

Edit: I am on it.

[Quantumsurfer]

That joke is over my head. Source?

I mean, its good we have something and cussing up a storm is as good as anything. Purple was the one element I couldn't figure. I've got ideas for the rest.

I suppose it's Samuel L. Jackson

[Quantumsurfer]

Because he has a purple lightsaber that says motherfucker on the side?

I guess that makes sense. Needs expanding, though, if that's it. I may work from "cussing up a storm."

[Quantumsurfer]

Speaking of which, Arkbrik, Space Wars made me laugh.

Additional ideas/meanings for purple (how can we make these relate to the nature of BrikWars in an epic way?):

Spiritual fulfilment/meditation
Magic/Mystery
Royalty/Nobility/Wealth/Extravagance/Grandeur
Balance (combo of red and blue, warmest and coolest)
Power/Ambition
Passion/Romance
Creativity/Imagination
Lt. Purple--femininity (which we already have represented)
Dk. Purple--Gloom, arrogance

edit:

Blue Transparent is up, by the way. I like the idea behind it.

[pkbrennan]

Yeah it was the Samuel L Jackson thing with his swearing on other films and the purple light sabre but I did not want to mention a black Warrior Monk of the Farce as it would be too obvious.

If you can make it more obvious without mentioning Samuel L Jackson by name, please do

[Quantumsurfer]

Hm. I appreciate the reference but I'd like to expand on it. Each of the other entries is modeled after the OT and so attempts to relate some fundamental and epic action in the BrikVerse. So far--Blue is supernaturally cold epitech from the end of time, clear is the residue that forms when gateways are ripped open between universes and reality tries to make sense of the emptiness between them, pink is the act of friendship which is inimical to the violent nature of the BrikVerse, Red is the essence of that very violent nature given birth by the very purest expressions of it, and yellow is the playroom lights of all the multiversal humans endlessly reflected and refracted exponentially throughout time and space.

We need to ramp purple up beyond cussing and a boner for mace windu.

I like the basic idea though. It fits with passion and magic. The warrior-monks...god, do we have a name for them? I remember Legiteye...was that in the rulebook? I also remember Pedi. Anyway, the monks fit with meditation and spiritual enlightenment. I'd love to include balance in some way. I'd also like to include royalty in some way. Thinking...what do you think, pk?

In other news, I wrote the Ice Fields of Skadus, which was linked out of BT, and the Sanguine Brotherhood, which was linked out of RT, for your reading pleasure.

Clear is the Transparent used by pedonuker, though my sigfig used it as a steam powered nova sword.

Blue is known as Prussian Blue and used by both nations as a cheap yet reliable source of fuel

[pkbrennan]

I think you should just go for it - maybe make purple transparent react badly to swearing? Become weaker or something? Play with it
