《Diary of Erica Kron》Day 220
Advertisement
As the Origin was caught up talking to Willow today I worked on experimenting with armors.
Something the Origin said the other day gave me the idea to try to specialize my Astrie armor. My reasoning was as follows, if directly weakening the power isn’t an option why don’t I weaken the scope? It worked, it worked much better than I imagined it would in fact. Not only is the baseline power level easy for me to endure, but if I specialize it enough I can even go as far as doubling the power level. Of course, at that point it’s useless for an entirely different reason, being able to do one specific task incredibly well can be useful, but I’m better off with something less specialized.
I know I can use this with flesh manipulation, but that is still too broad to have a large effect. This much still isn’t enough, but it’s a step in the right direction.
One other noteworthy effect I managed was a combination of Glovine and Singing Grass. I didn’t make an armor out of it but I was able to synchronize lights to the sound. It was interesting but I don’t really see a practical use.
Nothing else was really noteworthy, but I do feel more confident in my decision to create an armor out of every magical plant I have available.
Anyway, Good Night Diary.

Of Men and Dragons, Book 1
Book 1 is now available on Kindle, or in paperback/hardcover! You can buy it here! Jack crash-landed on a planet where the natives are seven-foot-tall carnivorous cat-lizards currently somewhere between stone and bronze age. The good news is the natives think the ship that crashed into their mountain is a dragon and are steering clear of it. The bad news is they just left one of their own as a sacrifice to appease the beast. No matter what Jack and his AI co-pilot decide, his life just got a lot more complicated... ATTENTION: This is soft sci-fi rather than hard sci-fi, hence why I chose that tag. For those of you unfamiliar with the distinction, here's what Wikipedia had to say. 1. It explores the "soft" sciences, and especially the social sciences (for example, anthropology, sociology, or psychology), rather than engineering or the "hard" sciences (for example, physics, astronomy, or chemistry). 2. It is not scientifically accurate or plausible; the opposite of hard science fiction. Soft science fiction of either type is often more concerned with character and speculative societies, rather than speculative science or engineering. The term first appeared in the late 1970s and is attributed to Australian literary scholar Peter Nicholls.
