You: I'd be ok if you came over, but maybe not when I'm trying to save the universe and all.



CowBoy: Yeah, yeah, saving the universe. Don't have to make it so dramatic. Anyway maybe I can throw you a late birthday party.



You: A two person birthday party.


CowBoy: Ok, that sounds a little stupider than I thought. I really didn't think that out, damn. You know what, yeah, a two person birthday party. Maybe I'll just drive us to a movie or something. I was going to say we could watch movies at your place but you need to get out more.


You: But I took photos yesterday.


CowBoy: I'm not counting the bird photo taking, Yu! Those don't count. You only did those because of the game.


You: Considering everything it took for me to do it counted for me. Anyway, how about those tips? I have this plan I'm doing with the limbo gods so I need to find them.


CowBoy: Uh, are you trying to save the universe or kill it faster? What could you want with the limbo gods? Those fellas are only good for doing really sweet boss killings. Ain't nothing more. I mean you can pull some sweet glitches or lure them into destroying tons of shit by accident but I don't see anything past that and going through the main limbo quest line.


You: Well, I want to see if I can get them to join forces to destroy the sun god.


CowBoy: The people who want to rip each other apart so much they had to be chained down?


You: Yeah them! I broke the chains though when I went to the Helper though. She's helping me out right now. I guess.


CowBoy: Your funeral dude. I don't think they'll help much. People have tried but it either ends in nothing or ends in them killing the universe first, but it's all about how you get there like you said I guess.


CowBoy: I guess I'll give you a little tip. First off, forget about the Neo, don't bother with it. If it would help anyone we'd be able to kill the sun god easy I'm sure, but it ain't going to help no one. Second off, easiest limbo god to bump into is the Singer.


CowBoy: Every time I start a new universe one of my first goals to do within 2 games is to get to the Singer and either set it into a long "Shut the heck up" state, or just kill it. If you don't sooner or later he'll stick his nose into what you're doing at a bad time.


CowBoy: His appearance can be triggered by fucking everything! Characters don't talk enough or are mute? Summoned due to silence. Characters having fun playing music? Summoned due to sound. Character offhandedly "I wish?" Summoned due to wanting to pass on some blessings. Don't even bother looking for it. It'll annoy you and come in at the worst possible moment anyway.


CowBoy: Really, just think about the Limbo god's names and shit. Like you have the greedy Sleeper. How are you going to attract a dude who thirsts for money like a dog in a desert thirsts for water? By being rich as shit and either hoarding it, or suddenly giving it out to people. Asshole will teleport right over, disguise itself and ask for handouts or try to steal it from you.


CowBoy: I think the Limbo gods are supposed to balance the game for when you get too OP? I don't know, all I know is that summoning them and then killing them is fun. Word of warning dude, I personally wouldn't approach a violent Limbo god without a pastor or person whose job it is to be all anti holy and shit.


CowBoy: Normally all that job does is raise morale and sanity which isn't amazing when other jobs do it better and come without the lectures, but unless you get lucky you want a pastor to calm down or distract a Limbo god. It can be hard to know when you need a Limbo god. Fuckers will hide anywhere, as anything. Random rock falls and instant kills your captain? Could be the Neo itself.


You: W-What?


CowBoy: It happened to me and it can happen to you too. I'm not making this up. Limbo gods will ruin your run because "They can."


You: Geez. At least I know all about Limbo gods hiding in plain sight sometimes. It happened to be 3 times already.


CowBoy: They really don't bother the player until they want something. They're more about bothering the NPCs and causing all sorts of questlines to pop up. Just follow the trail of anomalies if you find one and you'll hit a limbo god sooner or later.


CowBoy: I think you met that O-5 guy before? Yeah if you see him again check if he's following clockworks or anomalies. He has a 100% chance of running into a boss as long as you keep following him. Could be a normal anomaly boss, could be a Limbo god. Heck, don't even need that guy, just look for any anomaly hunter.


You: What is an anomaly?


CowBoy: It's like, some blessed creature, object, or place. The Limbo gods bless something and it starts going against logic or "the rules of the universe". Something like that. They're weirdo things, you'll know them when you see them.


You: Oh, alright. I think I've already seen at least one before. I was on a planet where time wouldn't pass. Anyway thanks for the help Cowboy. By the way, are we still going to do co-op later?


CowBoy: If you want to, you might want to save your achievement points for something else. It costs, 500 or 1000 points for it in the game mode section. Might want to wait till you finish up with your sun god run to do it. Co-op is legal for a sun god run though.


You: I'll think about it! You're right, I might want to keep my points to help me with other things. Thanks for talking to me Cowboy.



CowBoy: No problem.

Now it was time to make your captain. First you would need a species.

((As before, you cannot suggest a species that has been on our crew before, or is a species created by Gimeurcookie. You may only suggest one species.

You can also take the hybrid. If you want the hybrid vote "hybrid" instead of any species. You cannot suggest a species if you vote for the hybrid. Hybrid stats and traits in the spoiler.))
