Questions about goo people

[Callmefrank]

So, recently I decided to begin a project to write a Galotian NPC who aims to modify their species in order to change the view society has on the goo-girls, but there's things I'd like to know more about aince they could help shape the character's motivations and personality.

• What are the physical capabilities of Galotians? From what the Codex says I know that the bigger they become the more impressive their mass shaping becomes, but how agile, precise in their shaping or strong they are isn't mentioned.
• Galotian PCs can change colors pretty easily to match another part of their body. Can natural Galotians shift colors at will or do they first need some of their cells to have their color changed by an outside source too?
• From what is seen of Celise and Roz in game we can tell Galotians are practically immune to corrosives and have very high resistances to physical damage as well as most forms of energy, with extreme cold being the only thing they're more physically suceptible to, but what else makes them good at survival? Since all their cells are just the same and very mutable I imagine they have full view in all directions, maybe even the ability to sense creatures by their temperature if they're sensitive enough. Codex also suggests they don't need to breathe, or at least not in the same way as most humanoids, but at the same time Roz is vulnerable to pheromones. Is it just Roz or do all Galotians need to take in air? Could they not expel the air with pheromones if it's the latter?
• Codex mentions the Galotian Rights Act. I imagine it was set so that goo people can't just be treated as little more than sexdroids or animals, but if possible I'd like to know more about what it entails.
• The Picardine cores are said to need a special chemical treatment to work. How well-known and expensive would that be? Beyond the capabilities of a normal person to purchase or something expensive but still accessible, like some specialty mods?
• Would Galotian DNA be easier or harder to modify artificially? I know their cells are extremely mutable, but I don't know if that's limited to their self bio-engineering or not. And if a smarter Galotian were to modify her cells in a specific way and then give those cells to another Galotian, woild the second be able of replicating that specific modification on her own?

Sorry if these questions are so specific they haven't been thought of before. I don't expect to get some answers and can imagine some of the answers, but asking here just in case so that I don't make an assumptions that goes against any canon I missed.

Excuse me, the politically correct term is 'Galotian'.

Hmm thinking on it if they became bigger and could change their form better, then the agility is a maybe, strength would have to be the same as last one, it's a straight maybe. But if I were to guess the bigger they are is a trade off to their agility depending on if Steele is the Galo or the galo is a npc. If it's Steele then Steele is gonna get shit on and probably suffer some strange bad side effect, If the galo is an Npc then it's gonna probably have insane agility and strength.

I would say the pigmentation of galos are probably like skin color, depending on what their parents were colors were then they would either have a mix of the color if both parents have dominant colors or the parent with the dominant color will have the child as their color, and over time their color would probably change depending on the climate on the area they are in. THEN again,we could say they can change their colors if they absorb certain entities or drugs or items to have their color change or due to illness they could change color, their phisology isn't too explained.

Hmm, I would say if in extreme situations I would believe that they would be weak against the elements, it's just tits makes them ridiculously stupidly over powered. In any other situation if you were to set a galo on fire they would become corrosive but in turn they would also be in pain and seek to stop the the injury as fast as they could such as if you were to catch fire and start burning, extreme cold same thing they would freeze and and become immobile etc etc. Now the not needing air thing, tits op b.s. It's just something they added in because they don't have organs and are almost seemingly like one giant cell.

Galo rights is probably just in the name, it's just rights for Galos so they aren't mis treated or thought of as animals, it's like a sentience type thing where they can make choices and understand morals.

The Picardine thing is something they might just forget about in time if someone doesn't really act on it and add it, but if I can guess from looking at the prices of the shit they already have or stuff in cred it might be like I don't know in the hundred thousands for mods with like side effects that make you a perma galo?

Well Galos are like one giant cell and sometimes cell that split into more than one, it would probably be harder but why would they generally need mods if they can just shape their bodies into what the mod will change you into when you have enough biomass?

I'm pretty sure that the Rhan are the ones that are just 1 giant cell. Galotians are the more true to form 'goo-girls' of this series.

 

[Violent_Peace]

Well isn't like Roz a Rahn?

 

[Callmefrank]

Roz and Celise are the only Galotian NPCs in the game according to the wiki. Flahne and Zo'dee are examples of Rahn. Galotians aren't a single cell that can divide, they're a lot of multi-purpose cells. I agree that many of the things that they could be capable of are pretty op, but that basically comes with the territory of being an ooze and what it imples. In fact, that OPness is one of the motives I had in mind for the NPC I thought of, since goo-girls could do much more if they had the ambition and probably brains for it.

Hmm. Well the only way you'd get more info is if you join their discord and ask the hard questions from the people themselves. I'll just warn you to be careful as they are happy to kick and ban people for speaking..."Incorrectly"
