Trying to write an IC post for the Concordat meeting but need confirmation for it to be a-okay to use either a Tagali corpse or a Tagali volunteer as a meatpuppet for the Matriarch/Hive Queens.

No

Anyway, so the Pact is killing itself before anything really comes of it? Damn, I had this whole 'Skyllian Blitz' idea planned out to either test your defenses or weaken you.

Mkay. I'll figure something else out, then.

Any suggestions for meatpuppeteering?

You can use a Vecanta. In their culture the dead are more honored than the living (30 year lifespans so see).

Either way this meeting ends in a war, all that is up for grabs is whether its 3 v 1 or 2 v 2. I'm just as upset as you are, I was so excited for the Jihad

Link to your app so I can see what a Vecanta looks like? Also, would you prefer if it is a corpse being meatpuppeted or a 'volunteer'?

I fully expect a 3v1.

Here is the species app. Although you can use the search bar.... anyways it depends on how long it as been "used". It could be a corpse but wouldn't that be really smelly and disgusting? Decomposing and everything, you know.

Well, actually, it's less of a corpse and more of an Infiltrator having eaten the corpse's skeleton and organs and then inserting itself into the leftover skin and such; healing it as necessary and preserving it, mimicking their eyes as well.

Essentially, the Infiltrator keeps the skin from smelling and is stuck inside that skin until it dies or is required to shed that skin.

They're really bitter about being conquered. But they would not want to be "liberated" by people like you nor any foreign power.

Alright have fun with that corpse. Good thing they wear masks it hide their face. Just got to replicate the red piercing eyes.

Edit: Just keep in mind that their masks are meant to show mortality. So their masks look like their own skulls or the skulls of other species or creatures. The really hardcore Vecanta wear actual skulls.

The only thing is, though, since it is an Infiltrator; they tend to not have vocal chords, or if they do have them, they need to be careful when speaking because sometimes their voices will sound... unnatural compared to members of a species an Infiltrator is used upon. However, when it is a 'volunteer' being meatpuppeted; they can speak more clearly and such because the Matriarch/Hive Queens simply tell them what to say and semi-control them.

This is because the Xathoi rely entirely on psionics for communication with each other. Not to mention that only the Hive Queens and Matriarch are really sentient/sapient and independent of each other, making physical communication an alien concept to them for the most part. I dunno, an Infiltrator works, too; but they probably end up communicating via psionic telepathy.

We don't tell them their being annexed when we're actually fighting, that bit comes after... until then they can aid us in the establishment of an "independent" ostian state... or who knows, maybe there WILL be an independent Ostian state should we get our hands on it

You could do what the Tengeri do and have the Queens project what they're going to say to everyone in the room telepathically.

Probably what I'm going to have to do via the Infiltrator in a Vecanta meatsuit being an 'ambassador.'

Either that, or introduce a new 'ambassador' form for the purposes of communication. Might just do that, but meatpuppets are more fun.

Hellooooooooooooo... would you like to meet the Xathoi Hives?

Only anywhere between 300-500 of them at any given time are actually sentient/sapient (Hive Queens), plus the Matriarch / Empress. And they communicate purely by telepathic means because physical communication is alien to them.
