    Wasn't financial. The colony has startup issues and they needed the workforce. Bowman's design could use looser programming requirements due to being better at adapting. The later almost-crisis was financial.

    Ah I knew that version of Kara had to have something wrong with her mind to be acting like a five year old all the time. Kinda reminds me of the Renegade-verse version that had brain damage and had to have the blank spots filled in with eradicator programming.

    What about Hephestian, god of technology? He's got the god mojo, the tech mojo and OL in still on good terms with him.

    Borne of Caution (Pokemon Isekai)

    That's a good point there. Some pokemon abilities that are kind of meh' in a match would curbstomp when employed by a group.

    The point about an extremely physically capable species not being inclined to develop tech is partly incorrect, and subtler than most literature portrays. When you depend on your tech to a high degree, you lean into it and make inventing and developing it a main focus. You poke into every last...

    It's more that the way rings work in this setting, the intent to inspire fear is specifically a yellow ring thing to increase the strength of your constructs. It's incompatible with orange, and for non-enlightened users, the wrong mindset shuts the ring down. The same thing would happen if he...

    Does this version of OL know how to brand or assimilate?

    This right here. Even things that are technically morally acceptable can still be used by the state to bully or coerce people, hence why the law should err on the side of caution when possible.

    During the bit where OL was visiting their compound on Venus, it was mentioned that the Sivanas already invented their own bleed generator from scratch.

    IIRC in the comics it was his sister's deafness that he was trying to fix.

    Is the fact that he's not in the book the reason he can't say his name, since true names have metaphysical significance in this setting, if the book doesn't know he exists, then he couldn't have a true name?

    The pseudo-x-gene would be the reason survivors exist at all.

    My personal headcannon is that people who got powers instead of dying from accidents and other science shenanigans are ones with a partial X-gene, or something analogous to it, that allowed them to be altered instead of exploding.

    It's cannon to the specific version of the X-men universe he's using.

    It was mentioned way back during the bit where they were deporting J'aarkin back to Mars I think.

    It's the one-two punch of him being strong, clever, and capable to activate the monkey-brain, and being adorkable and kind to tug the heartstrings. Plus wall-crawling really sculpts the glutes. In one issue an alien he encountered at a party was later able to recognize him in costume by his butt.

    Well, at least we have confirmation of why we have all those altPauls running around. Krona needed identical versions in each universe as common connection points to pull his multiverse shenanigans.
