@Mediocreknight:

''Oh no, the Grails are human. The heavy hitting Ships-of-the-Line that occasionally get together to represent Mankind on the Pantheon/ figure out things like 'How to continue uplifting hoomans and friends without death and suffering'. Can even add to it that they get reared by good Väter and Mütter households to remind them of their 'power comes responsibility' so they don't become God Complex ridden douche canoes, part of why Bertram wants people like Jorge on board. Advisors with a moral compass in order to tell him if he's outta line.''

So your character wishes to create these grails and have them be the bulwark of humanity and ensure their survival? Hmmm... I like that plotline. I'll run with it and we can see where it goes.

''Opium addiction is a helluva thing, opium withdrawls are also a helluva thing. Maybe it was an experimental drug the Order dished out to its guys in the Far East Garrison when Bertram got stationed there. Maybe Bertram got injured at some point and took a liking to the morphine a bit too hard. Essentially yes, its like Super Opium, dulls the pain, gets that delicious Euphoria, and removes the safety governors on your musculature. Bertram got hopped up on it and is reaping what he sowed.''

Also like this plotline right here. That's a great way to cripple your character and give them strength. It's not often you see a crutch/limp like that implemented properly.
