Thoughts: Daaaaaamn, Hannah, you’ve been on the grind! Look at you go, killer!

And here we thought only Naomi had unreasonable amounts of determination. It turns out if you give an Alabamian-turned-Floridian a glimpse of having absolute power and godly control, she’ll sink her teeth into it and won’t let go.

Granted, I think Hannah is going to want to take a break from the hardcore training and give herself some time to feel human again, which is understandable. I think we can all use some reprieve once we secure Foodie and make sure she’s safe and sound.

Hannah got the Knight Destroyer in her origins now. Honestly, isn’t the reason plate armor and knights went out of fashion because of technological advances? Huh ... that feels thematic with Hannah, really.

As for the traits, let’s group them up. There’s twelve of them, but they might not be so evenly numbered.

The first grouping has Lore Eater, Side Quest Rich, and Unstoppable Research. Why these three together? Because it’s Hannah’s low key cheat traits. Now that I’m grouping traits together, I can better see how members of my party are growing into their OP-ness and this is Hannah’s way of doing it by wolfing down large amounts of applicable knowledge and acquiring a deluge of side quests from the Star System. If it wasn’t for Hannah’s bravery and tough mentality, she could’ve trapped herself in the village and try to grow herself through knowledge and side quests. But we both know that would’ve made her too fragile.

One, Artillery Hannah.

Two, Berserk Hannah.

Three, Gunner Hannah.

Artillery Hannah keeps Mystic Rush Tank +2 in the beta section and sits back. She sips on a fruity beer and lets her biggest magic guns fire from afar. She can safely use the glass cannon option even for extra oomph. And she can create magic artillery rounds live to buff herself before she shoots all her guns. This is also the reason Hannah’s a Tier 4, a destroyer of civilizations. She can build magic artillery guns from the land at a rapid pace and have them rain destruction and fire down on a city, leveling it without the action costing her too much.

Berserk Hannah is the opposite. She’s rushing forward. She’s aggressive. Mystic Rush Tank +2 is definitely going to stay in the alpha section while Rune Scan +2 goes into the beta section. Thanks to having Aura Mechanic, Hannah can still scan runes efficiently regardless of the debuff. This way, Hannah’s Cube Maker Magic +3, Enchantment +3, and Rune Alteration +2 can work together with Mystic Rush Tank +2 to make her a creator and destroyer, a crafting battlefield berserker. However, this version of Hannah’s quite risky and leaves her open to getting thrashed or killed by more powerful melee opponents or those who can disrupt her process.

Gunner Hannah is my favorite version. It bridges the qualities of Artillery Hannah with Berserk Hannah without putting Hannah too far into the frontline. Basically, Hannah hauls a personal cannon or two with her that’s more human-sized. She makes rounds on the fly, shoots from the midrange, applies other enchantments and mystical powers and crafts, and can call in arty support from the artillery battery she’ll leave in a secured location. This, of course, requires my help with the spectral spiders – who we will deem Team Arty – being established on site of the artillery battery. She’ll have to pre-create various rounds and establish simple and automated golems that can load these rounds with Team Arty directing them, but the pre-work would lead to absolute domination of most operations.

After doing some workshopping, and gushing over the idea of Gunner Hannah, I think Hannah agrees with me. She doesn’t want to be far from the action, but she doesn’t need to throw her face into it.

The biggest problem is deciding on which skill should go in the beta section, and after some back-and-forth debating, Mystic Rush Tank +2 is better off in the beta section with the option of switching it with Rune Scan +2 if Hannah needs the glass cannon feature to set up for a big, big hit. Since she’ll stay in the midrange, she should have opportunities to switch the two skills around from alpha to beta and back for different situations, making Gunner Hannah even more flexible.

Also, having Hannah on site makes it easier for her to see things more directly along with me. Her Aura Mechanic and Aura Generator with my Aura Mastery and Aura Magnificence are powerful together and very helpful for the party overall.

Hannah looks happy hearing all of that. She’s smiling more, even.

I think ... she’s forgiven me for sure.

She’s definitely glowing after all she’d achieved. There’s genuine excitement blazing out of Hannah’s puzzle-like aura as she pokes and prods at my aura. I poke and prod at her aura and tease her into little aura contests where we push and pull.

I’m kind enough to let her think she can beat me before I gently crush her. She laughs it off and challenges my aura once again. Para doesn’t join in, but she shares some impressions of joy and pride in Hannah’s growth and accomplishments.
