Imperial Tech is more magic than tech. And also, I put up magic safeguards on my own MID.
Magic is not tech. And so my MID cannot be hacked.


Magic can be hacked.

Also I did tell Techno Technicians true power.

BTW you need to send Technician a transmission cuz he's after you.

Oh so now Whizz is an immortal? Oh btw whizz can you die from attack or a disease or anything?

I am a True Immortal.
I already said I am.
And I cannot be killed. True Immortals cannot be killed in any way except for cutting off their part of the Lone Oak. I, however, cannot be killed by that either.

Rymmie explained it like this:
Lesser Immortals are those who were able to extend their life cycles by a very long time.
Full Immortals were never born and can never die.
True Immortals were born, died, and survived the end of their cycle, thus receiving an infinite pool of energy and an infinitely high overload point.
Also, I can glimpse the Greater Self without going crazy. In fact, I can stare at it.[DOUBLEPOST=1373747308][/DOUBLEPOST]
Nicholas Flamel. Read up on him and your question should be answered. I'm talking about the stories about him, not the real guy. That'd be rather boring.

Omg, I absolutely love that story. But this is not that kind of immortality.

Which one? There are so many. I'm referring to these ones: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secrets_of_the_Immortal_Nicholas_Flamel

Look behind you
*Begin transmission*
Hey guys, pretty excited, getting to see inside the fairly large hadron collider today! Pretty cool, being on the cutting edge an stuff, although by what rymmie and techno say, not that high-tech at all, but hey, not bad for where we are!

They're just taking me into the viewing area now, so excited!

Awesome! Here we are!

Hrm, taking a while to start up, half an hour they say. ah shit, didn't bring anything to do, and I don't know anybody here. And I am not very sociable, so yeah...

Found some elastic bands in my pocket, I'm going to just fidget with them, so bored.

*ALERT, ALERT! MALFUNCTION! MALFUNCTION! PLEASELAKNKBDGHFUVFCDCHBJJ!*

Oh that does not sound good, oh dear, oh shi-BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

*Ragged breaths* I'm alive? What? H-how?

In fact, I actually feel great. What's the deal with this? Hello? Anybody? *Humph* Just get this damn beam of my chest. Hello?!?!?!

Shit, I don't know what happened, but I have to tell someone. I'll run, be back to transmit in a mo'.



Okay, I alerted the authorities. A doctor looked me over, and yeah... I have some interesting news...

Here goes: WEll you know I'm kinda augmented and that? Well that, in combination with the particle accelerator, and, bafflingly, my elastic bands, I am now...

Immortal. Shit just got real...

Let me explain: It's not the normal kind of Lesser, True and all that, but an existence that cannot be stopped. I am invincible to death. I can be harmed, but nothing fatal. That's pretty damn cool if you ask me!

*End transmission*

OOC: PLEASE, someone get this reference, PLEASE PLEASE let someone get it!

And those who do, yes, I know I'm meant to be unharmabley, but, well, that would be OP...

And, according to the 10 Pan-Galactic Gargle-Blasters I just went through, I am now a massive heavyweight, as I am only a bit tipsy...

So essentially you're a god?

No, just a special True Immortal. Unless Rymmie has some kind of backstory made up for someone like me, which he obviously doesn't.

MIDs are special. Theoretically, I could hack you.
At least that's what I gather from Rymmie's explanation.

Essentially you just became a non-OP whizz without unhackable tech?

OOC: Whizz has become a text-book example of a Marty Stu, now that I re-read everything. WHY ARE YOU MAKING YOURSELF SO POWERFUL, DAMNIT?!

Mary Sue is the original and less stupid sounding term.

What?
I'm a regular True Immortal. And some True Immortals have MIDs. And maybe some can look at the Greater Self. That's all.

I know, but that allows J to make the "Whizz is a girl" joke one more time - since it's meant for female characters. Unless Whizz is a girl in this or his character doesn't have a gender (what?) - but that would be wierd as heck.

I'm male.
But I'm not human.
Humans are incapable of becoming True Immortals Any kind of immortal.

In fact, screw it, I am completely invincible, if whizz can be, all according to the Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy! WOOT!

EDIT: fo those who did nto get the reference, but have read HGG, I am referencing Eoin(Owen) Colfer's continuation, part 6, called And Another Thing, in which Bowerick Wowbagger The Infinitely Prolonged is written about a bit, and it says he is so because of an accident, involving elastic bands and a particle accelerator. If you ahevn't read that book, or any of HGG, DO IT NOW!

Jonny, are you human?
Humans can't become immortals unless someone explicitly raises their overload point. Humans also do not have the willpower to survive the end of their cycle. So you better not be a human, or I'll have to perform my first overload extension in thousands of years on a Human. I wanted it to be on the Empress...
