Go-Go-Go-ZOOM

Inspired to the point of borderline plagiarism by a random False Machine image ping-pong response


Go-Go-Go-ZOOM is a deity of progress, optimism, and an idealized future. It is also notable for the fact it does not exist.

Go-Go-Go-ZOOM has projected its glorious voice and mission back in time so that the people of Egharl may take heed and build a future even more brilliant and glorious than the one Go-Go-Go-ZOOM resides within already. For Go-Go-Go-ZOOM to exist, it must be created, and so its worshippers must strive to create it, for this is the will of Go-Go-Go-ZOOM. The form of Go-Go-Go-ZOOM must be futuristic. It must be new. It must be interesting.  Go-Go-Go-ZOOM cannot abide mundanity. Progress is the is everything. 

The faithful of Go-Go-Go-ZOOM hate the world as it is not for any coherent ideological reason, but because they understand that the current flawed system must be overthrown by the superior system of the Future in order for them to ascend closer to the infinite glory of Go-Go-Go-ZOOM.

Progress towards what? It doesn't matter. Progress towards the end of the world? Progress towards the Singularity? Progress towards the ascension of squirrels as the dominant form of life? Progress. Progress? Progress! Progress! PROGRESS!

Progress can conflict with itself. Go-Go-Go-ZOOM does not discriminate between progress towards the extermination of gorillas and progress towards the total population of gorillas entering the multi-trillions. Go-Go-Go-ZOOM loves it all. 

Every body that has ever been constructed for Go-Go-Go-ZOOM has been imperfect. This is by design. Go-Go-Go-ZOOM will always exist at some point in the future, because the second Go-Go-Go-ZOOM is given corporeal form it goes from being an ideal into being a physical thing, and that would be terrible. Go-Go-Go-ZOOM can exist in a dream, an aspiration, a set of blueprints, but the second you start building it? Nothing that exists in the present can be from the future. Go-Go-Go-ZOOM is always from the future.


And yes, the name is case sensitive.

(B/X) Two Swords-y Classes

I won’t make a secret of it, these classes are a bit silly. It’s a little bit of Inigo Montoya, a little bit of Metal Gear Rising, and a lit...
