05/27/2011 [DMFA #1222] - The More You Know

[Mao]

As I've said in previous threads, if folks wish to discuss Project Future, there is an appropriate forum for it.  I've no doubt you're familiar with it.  I know it's kind of tricky because PF is essentially a fan-fiction of DMFA and, as such, happenings in DMFA can cause shockwaves in PF.. but those are best covered (and hopefully thoroughly explored) in PF's forums.  This will allow for the discussion of both comics to proceed in a far more focused manner.

I guess my question boils down to whether or not this cubi-transfer can follow bloodlinks in ways other than child to non-cubi parent. To use a scenario we KNOW happens: what about cases where the child just turns out to be not a cubi at all? Would it be possible to follow link from parent to child?

Hah, Amber answers one question and then gets a whole slew of new questions.

This is why we can't have nice things, right ?

I always figured we couldn't have nice things because mow's and warp-aci kept eating them. *shakes fist* You ate my good socks mow!

At leat shen the Warp Aci eat your socks they can be found on the Island of Lost Crap. Just ask Wildy (from a safe distance) where it is.

Pretty Ponies wear socks ?

[Maark30]

Socks are for everyone who wants them.  Sock freedom for all the oppressed pretty ponies.

I would assume that because the kid doesn't have a connection to the clan leader, the non-cubi parent can't be reached.  Although such an occurrence would be rare, since Cubi with clan leaders have access to their power. 

My question is, can the Being still be converted to a clan without a clan leader?

The extended question is there a difference if the Clan Leader is a Tri-Wing or not? 
Have we ever gotten confirmation about clan leaders needing to be Tri-Wings or not? 

[Mao]

While I'm not positive nor do I have a link to back this up at the moment (though I'm sure with some effort I could find one),  I believe that no, one does not need to be a tri-wing to be a clan leader.

I'm wondering if the being had to be willing? I could see some cubi making forced changes to their spouse because they don't want to see them grow old and die

I can't quite imagine someone unwilling in that situation. Except for Dan, but the situation was somewhat different, and he's Dan.
