[quote name="Entropy Stew"]God I love Launch Eclipse. A few I thought up: <b>fork(2):</b> Create a copy of enemy mob to fight on your behalf. If the target mob is killed, his fork changes into a zombie and attacks your party <b>Forkbomb:</b> Crash the Hugo interpreter <i>perl -e 'fork until (1 == 0)'</i> Alternate effect: create innumerable copies of yourself, greatly reducing enemy chance to hit <b>EMM386:</b> Buff memory to increase max TSR limit. Lose next turn while attempting to configure correctly. <b>Quake:</b> Enemy is pierced with nine-inch nails <b>Quake ][:</b> Force enemy disk access patterns to create a harmonic feedback loop, dragging them across the server room (used to happen with mainframe drum memory. Also: your washer) <b>Quake ]I[:</b> You become the avatar of competent implementor John Carmack. Mental stats increase 50%, HP is halved <b>Doom</b>: Summons a cyberdemon to fight on your behalf. Only executable while EMM386 is active. <b>Divide by Zero:</b> This desperate act opens a black hole. All mobs, NPCs, and PC flip a coin to determine whether they live or die <b>Abort/Retry/Fail?:</b> Target's next action delayed by 1 turn <b><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lace_card">Lace Card</a>:</b> Paralyze target for 10 rounds. Target may sacrifice X bitcoins to IBM to end the effect early. Stun duration is inversely proportional to X. <b>Segmentation Fault:</b> Target below 50% hp is instantly killed. His inventory drop is replaced with a core file, which must be debugged to gain access to the item <b>Debug:</b> Debugs target core or unsummons target bug. Channeled ability. Costs HP and bitcoins per round to execute. Execution time is 1d4 rounds <b>Heisenbug:</b> Summons a small bug to fight for you. Enemy attacks have a -1 penalty until bug is killed. Bug has an 80% dodge chance vs physical attacks. Debugging leveled at the Heisenbug will increase debug's HP cost <b>Throw Exception:</b> Returns party to previous room <b>Pong</b>: Reflect next attack <b>It's On Like Donkey Kong:</b> Summon hammer. Party gains +1 to rolls while hammer is wielded <b>Umeshoryu:</b> unblockable psychic punch knocks enemy to the ground -/ES/-[/quote]
