Yeah, Our Klik had Metal positive and Blood negative before Junior capitalized on that.

Metalic kliks like ours don't have temperature affinities.

As far as the size of kliks, I agree that they all seem to be the same size, except that Junior is growing as he eats. I think Thunt is hiding from us that Junior is an abomination because of what our klik did fusing with the soul of a living creature instead of copying it. I think he's different than everyone else.

So when you say fluid click do you mean fluid or do you mean liquid? The reason I ask is that gases are fluids but are not liquids. Thus you could make an air klik positive or an air klik negative. Which would make either a very powerful or very weak klik.

"Fluid" can also refer to plasma. Plasma kliks and glass klik could then form a "plasma globe" klok with several plasma clouds inside.

The technical use of "fluid" doesn't seem to fit well here. Thunt explained that a fluid klik with an affinity for heat can survive and function in a gaseous form, while a fluid klik with an affinity for cold can survive and function in a solid form. It seems to mean that they are liquid at room temperature, or something like that.

Would a Bone-Klik be a pseudo-geodesic sphere made of actual bones, or just a spherical mass of bone matter? If the latter, would it contain marrow or just the hard outer part of the bone?

I'm thinking a very round, eyeless skull with bone-arms and human-ish teeth.

What exactly is a Temporal Klik made of? Other than differing negs and poz's, what makes one TK unlike any other? That is to say, one metal klik is made of iron and one of gold, one organic is made of wood and another of flesh, but all temporals are made of time, right? And why exactly is "time" a blue solid in The Panel?

Goblins probably doesn't have to ever answer this one since its world is pre-industrial, but for theoretical purposes, if a Klik were made of Plastic, would he fall into Organics or be a distinct sixth type?

Are the panes of translucence connected to the staff - bearing Klok's hands, or does he have Rayman Syndrome?

There are actually 2 temporal kliks in the panel, a yellow one with claw arms is back behind the froggy click. It seems they come in general colors, and their appearance doesn't exactly reflect what they are made of.

Would be nice to make a basic Klik Creator. Anyone feel up to making a list of possibilitys for kliks?

Also my Klik is
Flesh - demonic
This klik is made of the same demonic flesh as mr fingers. Due to this the Rot Klik has the ability to rot off limbs, his positive is the rotten material (the blue mush that follows a touch)
its Negative is healing magic of any type including potions.
This klik has 6 long protruding fingers, 4 it uses as legs,the other two feel around for any creature to get in its way - it has also been known to pray on fellow kliks which are made from organic material such as flesh or muscle.

Oooh, Klik Tables!

Roll a D6 for a type, then roll a D8 for subtype... etc. :)

Here's my stab at the table. I know I missed some options, but this could get you rolling. :P

The table you have made is an amazing start :) hopefully as a collective group can really add to it :)

In organic maybe add undead - roll on flesh table for type of undead flesh or add to flesh table instead, teeth/enamel, in energy's add magical which would lead to another table.

Seconding this - it definitely seems like a pretty good starting base.

As we know by the infomation Thunt has given us, a kliks posative and negatives maybe specific or widely available - the example he gave was our klik been able to eat all metal.
My idea for this (would love for people to add to it, change it or rehall the idea) Before rolling for a Pos/Neg roll D12 for each 1- 4 = Specific pos or neg.. 5 - 8 Semi Specific ... 9 - 12 Wide range.

Ooh, I like that idea. I tried getting something like that by having the rerolls, but as it is, it is far too uncommon to have multiple, let alone all metal. (Though I doubt our klik was ALL metal, since he didn't chew up and swallow Junior's fingers to heal himself. That would have changed how that fight went if he could just heal himself by eating Junior.) Still, I think rolling a broadness number rather than the rerolls would be very helpful. I'll look into it. Also, I'm not sure how to divvy up magic into different types. I took a stab at it, but I'm not aware of any sources for a broad view of how magic works in the goblinsverse.

It's probable that material which is part of a klik can't be absorbed by another klik, or at least that it would require a contest of wills between them.

Or maybe it's too close to how a Klok forms and our Klik wouldn't want to risk that.

Yea, I considered that, but then decided to ignore it. You could be right though.

I didn't think about the klok connection. Interesting...
