The fridge is the first place I look for food, so the lunch crew might have gone through there. Plus if they went through the trap door one would still be loitering around here from being used as a ladder, right? So we could pretty much rule the trapdoor out.

Adrax said the doors shift though, so it stands to reason that methods of entry, such as a ladder, may do the same. I'll second checking the fridge door first though.
>Check through the fridge door first, then the high tech door carefully.
Edit: So I apparently typed Veraxus instead of Adrax. Do not let a tired Hichico type.

Yeah, it's likely a different door. Though the chance that any door is the right door is quite low.
If we're trying to find the mors unit, it couldn't have gone through the high door without help so we can cross that one off. The freezer door is kind of arkward but the small opening might've seen as something that could shake a persuer off. I don't like the thought of leaving Adrax and Edel though.

Try opening all of them before picking one. But if that isn't an option, then yeah, fridge door seems reasonable.
Also, since people already too exposed to this planet aren't affected by The Fool, then does that mean it's related to chaos?

You: Wait back up a moment, what's this about player avatars? And what did Cowboy's avatar look like? Maybe I've come across it.
AbsoluteTrash: Laughing my butt off. it’s a cowboy duh. What else would it even be. Player avatars are like, simple minor things. You don’t gotta worry about them being in your game if they are, cause they have really minor powers. Like god of soda pop!
You: Does cowbow avatar have a leather jacket and a leather hat as well as two toned eyes?
AbsoluteTrash: Yeah that's the one!
You: Well he got himself eaten by a shark.
AbsoluteTrash: Rip. Just like cowboy would have wanted to die. Unless that shark was a god he'll respawn one day.
You: Well, I hope he’s ok, but like you said the gods might kill him. Speaking of gods, can you like talk to the sun god, I mean I’m sure not many people have tried so maybe it’s possible?
AbsoluteTrash: Well duuuuuuuh people have tried. Not everyone is in to total murderer! I tried talking to the sun god once.
AbsoluteTrash: Went sooooooo badly. Killed like 40% of the gods and replaced them all with like…things? It’s hard to explain I have lots of screenshots but they’re not on this computer so woop woop. Wait! I’m not suppose to share any info with you unless we’re trading anyway so pffffff forget that.
Show Content
Spoiler
You: What do you want to trade for info, because I’m not sure what you want here, you seem to know a lot…
AbsoluteTrash: Yeah to be honest I’m like the Fortuna guru, it’s hard to get new info to me. I mean I’ve kiiiiind of stopped doing sun god runs cause it’s a total dead end so most of the info I can give you is totally useless. :/
AbsoluteTrash: I mean I wanna beat the sun god run so I’m always on the snoop out for new deets but like. Shrug, I won’t care if I never beat it. I guess if you see something odd about the sun god run you can tell me and if I’ve never heard about it I can tell you.
You: Well there is one strange guy in my game. His name is Sonny and he’s in one of my character’s head, telling them what to do and stuff.
AbsoluteTrash: Doesn’t sound too weird, I mean some characters just have like, weird imaginary friends in their head. Just bring the character’s sanity up and poof! Most of them leave.
You: Here's the thing though, Sonny is trying to make cea (the crewmember) wish him into reality through Fortuna. And if Cea does, sonny has been telling him that he'll make Cea immortal. Plus...this is the weirdest part. When we tried to use another crewmember to talk to sonny, we were transported outside of the universe. Apparently in to the under universe? He said he was like a dreamwalker but he isn’t.
AbsoluteTrash: What what? OH MAN THIS SOUNDS GOOD!!!! Could it be THEM? The missing piece?!?! I AM HYPED YOU GOTTA TELL ME MORE. What info do you want buckaroo?
Show Content
Spoiler
You: Well I want to know about just what you’re talking about.
AbsoluteTrash: Well no duh I gotta tell you all about that when I ask you questions. :V
You: Well ok, I got this The Fool drink. Mind telling me about it?
AbsoluteTrash: Well see. Those drinks are part of the Major Arcana set of drinks. (There’s no lesser arcana set of drinks in this game so ??? weird to call them Major Arcana.) The company that makes them is run by Mors so that’s why they’re kind of weird and twisted and I love them.
AbsoluteTrash: Each one has an upside, but also like, a hidden downside. If you know tarot cards you can prob guess most of them, but some of them are just kind of hella random? Either way, almost all of them turn your character in to a “monster” or creature. I mean it’s Mors so like? The norm for Mors.
AbsoluteTrash: You’ll normally find at least 1 or 2 in each game, they’re good to save up for usage at the start of a game, seeing as most of the time they’re like. End game items. So you find them when it’s a little too late to get the full effects, so it’s just like, wrinkles nose, welp. I guess that’s the whole point of it anyway?
AbsoluteTrash: Either way, The Fool is a good one for actual late game play. Prob one of the only ones that’s actually for end game play. If your character drinks it. They lose all of their traits. And their intelligence drops to 1.
AbsoluteTrash: BUT you get to put in 5 green traits, 5 green traits YOU pick.
AbsoluteTrash: Matches well with The Fool being the card of new starts.
Show Content
Spoiler
You: But you said that each card turns them in to like, a monster or something right?
AbsoluteTrash: Yeeeeeep! The Fool turns your character in to like an animal version of themselves. Like, lets say your character was a notail? I mean LAUGHING MY BUTT OFF THEY’RE ALREADY MONSTERS BUT LIKE STAY WITH ME HERE OK?
AbsoluteTrash: If you gave this potion to a notail, they’d like, turn in to like a werewolf maybe? Or like a wereant. That’s what would happen.
You: What about a gondii, I mean they have no way to eat, can we use the poition on them?
AbsoluteTrash: Never thought about that, but yea you can. If you inject it in to them but like. I mean, that’s a little weird. Your character is going to have to be a little off to get an injection of a drink in to them. I mean I guess if you want a big ole parasite on your crew that’d be neat. I ain’t really in to crawly bug things myself but I got a friend who reeeeeeally digs it. My friend is a bug master…uh like….game/glitch bugs and normal bugs.
You: You mean cowboy?
AbsoluteTrash: Nah we got like, a few people in our Fortuna chat. Everyone has like their own section of what they do there.
AbsoluteTrash: One of them is the bug master. Only likes to play the glitchest version of Fortuna and tries to ruin the game as fast as possible. Reeeeally fun to watch.
You: Does this friend know how to kill the sun god?
AbsoluteTrash: Glitchy would NEEEEVER try to kill the sun god. All that does is bring order and Glitchy hates order.

AbsoluteTrash: Ok time for my question. What does Sonny look like?
You: Like a snake, if the snake was only drawn with straight lines. Sort of off white in color, with a black and grey underbelly.
AbsoluteTrash: AWWWWW YEAH! We’re striking gold here boys!!! Please, you have to tell me how you got Sonny. How did you get Sonny I need this info so badly.
You: The crew member was randomly generated.
AbsoluteTrash: Well fuck me I guess.
You: Well our crew member is a Klannec with a Sir, and [Imaginary Friend] is that helps. His baby sitter had the same thing apparently.
AbsoluteTrash: Yeah that is nice but it just proves that this missing piece is basically randomly generated which is lame. You’re like, super lucky. I mean. I don’t think you understand how lucky you are.
AbsoluteTrash: Are you ok with giving me your game, like a copy? I need this. There’s only a few save files with this last piece, and almost all of them are from like the end of the universe.
You: What do you have to trade?
AbsoluteTrash: I mean unless you want another game file in exchange for it all I have to trade is knowledge.
You: I want more questions.
AbsoluteTrash: I'll give you 2.
You: 3.
AbsoluteTrash: 2.
You: I guess you aren't getting the copy.
AbsoluteTrash: I guess you aren't going to be asking the Undergame master about the undergame as one of your questions then. :3c

You: Can you at least give the potion to Cleo and then take a picture of what happens? And also tell our patrons that we're sorry and goodbye for us?
AbsoluteTrash: For sure I'll take a pic. I'm prob going to kill this Cleo person afterwards though cause. Ugh. Monster bug sounds gross but I got it.
AbsoluteTrash: Want me to record myself telling your patrons goodbye. Athena is prob going to be boring as heck but who knows how Helios will reaction.
You: Yeah....take a video....just so I can see. I hope it's not too sad.
AbsoluteTrash: Helios is kind of boring so maybe he'll be like “Bye”.

AbsoluteTrash: It’s stupid but my player avatar is just a furry robot and cause my game is like, BIG in the Fortuna community I got like the worst memes. Five Nights at Trashy.
AbsoluteTrash: Dumb stuff like that. It’s all in fun and it’s pretty funny sometimes but yeeeeeeah. I’m sure that won’t happen to you. Anyway I got to go send this game to people now.
AbsoluteTrash: Oh yeah before I leave I should give you some info on the undergame!
You: I thought that was a bluff.
AbsoluteTrash: Nah….you might even call it a…..double bluff. B|
AbsoluteTrash: Ok so once upon a time the Fortuna dev crew were making a space exploration game with gods in it and what not. Before they had Greek gods they had like a total mash up of gods.
AbsoluteTrash: The theme of the story seemed to be darker too? I mean like, Fortuna is about sad stuff and hopelessness but also hope too in a way? This game just seemed like about I don’t know. Despair I guess?
AbsoluteTrash: Maybe if the game was finished, we would have seen the true theme of it. Basically it’s kind of sad. Think about reading a book that ends at the worst part. Someone tears out the rest of the pages so you never see the upside.
AbsoluteTrash: Anyway, the undergame basically is heck. It’s messy, one wrong move can destroy your game forever. It is interesting though from the times I’ve been able to go there. Looks like a game pasted together with glue and sticks.

AbsoluteTrash: The sun god lives here, when you don’t summon him out but talking to him just causes him to tell you gibberish glitched sentences hacked from sentences you’ve heard from your game before.
AbsoluteTrash: Nearly everyone is like that there though! They’re missing so much of themselves that they just, exist.
AbsoluteTrash: There is a way to “Fix” the characters though. Gotta find the matching AIs and pretty much fuse them.
AbsoluteTrash: A lot of the undergods are basically just the pre forms of some of the AIs. Basically they just, looted the code from them and made it in to another character with a greek/roman theme.
AbsoluteTrash: I mean it’s clear that the Fortuna devs get reeeeeeeeally lazy with coding and what not. I mean they didn’t even get rid of the other game. Fortuna is just on top of it. In a weird way, it’s being supported by it, and if it were ever to fall Fortuna would fall too!
AbsoluteTrash: The sun god destroys the game in a way by fusing Fortuna and the other game. He does this, I guess because he wants his friends back. He wants them to be alive again instead of soulless husks, but it never works and is kind of sad to watch.
AbsoluteTrash: The game collapses on itself, unable to handle things. Always missing something you know.
You: Is Sonny one of these missing pieces?
AbsoluteTrash: We don’t know! But I do have a clue as to what Sonny is. Have you like. Ever thought about the limbo gods?
AbsoluteTrash: There's 9 Limbo gods.
AbsoluteTrash: Isn't there something really stupid about that? >: |

You: Is there anything weird about it?
AbsoluteTrash: Uuuuh 9 is an uneven number and it's right next to 10. Who wouldn't go to 10?
AbsoluteTrash: Things just don't stop at 9. Unless it's groups of 3s. But the Limbo gods aren't groups of 3s, they hateeeee grouping together.
AbsoluteTrash: So why 9? We have an idea. The 10th limbo god. Was cut.
You: No I mean did the 9 always hate grouping together?
AbsoluteTrash: I guess you don't know Limbo lore but yep it's always been like that. They try killing each other when they see each other.
AbsoluteTrash: There’s tons of lore on why but uuuh to make it easy they’re like, made half out of betrayal.
AbsoluteTrash: Anyway if that's all you wanted I'll be off now! You can use the other question later.

You: Alright but can you tell me about the other players? I just want to know about them seeing as I can’t be in the Fortuna chat.
AbsoluteTrash: Sure. I mean Cowboy told me you’re kind of bitey about the way robots are treated but so far in this convo you haven’t been pretty bitey towards me so??? Maybe Cowboy was just being a jerk and you were being like that towards Cowboy and he assumed it was about something else? Idk. Anyway I guess you you really really are like that you won’t like some of these guys, but I love all of them.
AbsoluteTrash: We got Glitchy who I told you is all in to glitches. Glitchy is kind of a country Hick but Glitchy is our country Hick? Glitchy is always like. We this, we that, a lil weird but I can dig it.
AbsoluteTrash: Likes both types of bugs, and Glitchy’s patron is always Atheris + Whatever poor poor robot Glitchy is likely going to kill or corrupt next.
AbsoluteTrash: There’s cowboy, the dirty causal we all know and love. His favorite AI is Artemis and he likes Apollo too but not as much as Artemis. Of course Cowboy has the dirty causal team up.

AbsoluteTrash: We also got a speedrunner on our group but I can’t remember their name at the moment. They’re kind of monotone and you can never get a sense of what they’re thinking. Doesn’t even have a stable patron! I know I nicknamed them Speedy, but I don’t think they’ve taken to the name much.
AbsoluteTrash: We also have a chat bot who plays Fortuna that’s made by Speedy. It’s for their live streaming channel. It takes what users say and then does it in Fortuna. It goes badly…a lot…but it’s pretty popular to watch in the Fortuna groups.
AbsoluteTrash: There’s another dude in our group, but I don’t know what she’s about, she doesn’t talk much apparently? I think she’s been too busy to play for the past few weeks but she sometimes just randomly pops in with new artwork and stuff.
AbsoluteTrash: And that’s the whole group! I know Cowboy has another friend who was suppose to play Fortuna but they just kiiiiiind of went missing. And don’t tell Cowboy I told you this, but cause they went missing Cowboy had to give you the copy. Before Cowboy was just going to give them the copy but RIP.
AbsoluteTrash: Or, not rip. I hope whoever they are they’re ok. Apparently they’re a coder? No idea like I said.
AbsoluteTrash: So yeah! Text dump, that’s all of them. If you want to gain contact with any of them I can prob give you their contact info as long as you’re willing to play nice.
You: I think I can try talking to Glitchy.
AbsoluteTrash: Wow really, Glitchy is like the opposite of who i thought you would pick, from what Cowboy told me you're like, the ain't Glitchy. Anyway I'll give you the info but like I said....play nice. If Glitchy says something you don't like just say you gotta go. Don't go yelling at people over video games.
AbsoluteTrash: Anyway! I've sent your info to Glitchy, I don't know when they'll respond but I'm sure they will sooner or later. So yeah, see you!

Edit:
We should consider giving Marble the potion since it'd get rid of her pretty bad sleeping traits. She'd still have good stats with a single point in intelligence and we won't need a psychologist in the late game. Plus, if we remove her [psychic disable] this way, she'll be able to work in the same place as Adrax.

Plus, Marble now has the [Injured] trait, which caused her to lose 2 agility. Using the potion on her might bring back those two agility points, or at the very least it will get rid of that trait. Getting rid of her injuries as well as her psychic disable could work out well. She'd be able to work with Adrax, who can easily bring her int back up to 10 with [Trick Room]. Albeit temporarily.
The real question is what positive traits do we give her. Personally, I'd go with:
[Pack Mule]
[Rarely Misses]
[Quick Thinker]
[Psychic Powers]
[Fireproof]
Pack mule would just be useful in general. Cobalt proved rarely misses can be extremely handy. Quick thinker would reduce our chances of being ambushed/getting into unforseen trouble and the last two...
I just think it would be interesting for Marble's [Psychic Disable] to sort of just fade away and reveal the psychic powers she should normally have, and the fireproof could just sort of be a "Result" of her actions previous planet.

True, but in the case of Cleo she'd also get 5 green traits to help compensate for her complete lack of traits. Plus we've got Adrax to cover the intelligence department and we don't have much need for an engineer on the crew anymore. Seems to me like she'd get the most improvement out of this.
Another factor to consider, Adrax has Trick Room. Using this would put all Cleo's stats below six, meaning that twice a day she becomes above average in everything.

I think we could use an engineer actually. We just got a whole bunch of scrap with the new ship and we got more scrap when we beat the Somnus unit. We can go upgrade the living heck out of our robots and weapons.

If we're talking traits I'd go with
(Spoiler'd cause it's kind of a tangent and takes up space.)
Show Content
For size
[Protective] (Useful for a physically focussed character and leaves at least some part of Marble's original personality in tact.)
[Cryomancer]([Psychic powers] is kind of a general trait, and Adrax can already do it. A specific mancy should be more powerful, and Cryomancy, crontrolling ice and cold, would fit with marble's thing where she counteracts her families fire.)
[Street smart](Compensates a little for the loss of brains.)
[Motivated]/[Adaptive](These could help migitate Marble's reaction to the potion's effects.)
[Never misses](Good combat trait.)
I wouldn't go with [Pack Mule] since Marble can already carry 12 weight units worth of items, and Marble can probably take quite a bit of fire with her high endurance if she needs to so I don't expect [Fireproof] to help that much.
Other traits to consider would be [Cute] since it might make it easier to sail ships, thus making it easier to get cool hybrids, [Chip Magnet] because every stat sheet could use [Chip Magnet] and [Animal Communer] to hopefully help deal with the pterodactyl.

My only goal is to get as many Minithenas as possible.

Considering we have an indestructible ship that we can just crush whatever with I don't think we'll really need any offensive upgrades. Even if you still think we do, we can always have Cleo pop it once she's done those things. Or just have Latta do it since she's a Jack of All Trades.
