Chapter 5 by The-Drunken-Bandit The-Drunken-Bandit

Where do you look?

Invader Zim

Then again…

This world is rather stupid and thus your choices and henchman are rather limited…

So, limited in fact that you can only see two possible choices in Henchs that you can recruit from this world. Both of whom are extremely hostile and will be extremely difficult to recruit.

Those choices being Gaz membrane and invader Tak.

  1. Gaz membrane- Gaz is an extremely antisocial and rather cynical teenager. She’s been like this ever since she was a small child. Though this could be due to the fact that she was not naturally created. She and her brother dib were created via cloning experiments created by their father Dr. membrane. The foremost scientist in the entire world, who realizing that in the future he would eventually pass on, decided to create a legacy in the only way he knew how.

That, of course, being SCIENCE! Mad science, but still science. The end results of which you’d have to say are rather mixed. For the simple fact that both children that the good doctor created were the extremes of two different mindsets.

Dib was designed to be the ultimate form of a thinker, a future scientist that would inherit the membrane name. While Gaz was designed to be the ultimate form of a fighter, someone that would protect Her older brother if any harm came to him.

However, like most of the good doctor’s experiments, he went a… little too far… The end result can be seen in both Gaz and her brother. As Gaz is extremely antisocial and extremely aggressive towards people, mainly due to the fact she sees them as idiots.

To temper this internal aggression within her, Dr. membrane gave her all the Video games she ever asked for. in the hopes that if would sate her rage, to which it did! A little well in fact. As the end result caused Gaz to have an obsession with them, along with pizza. Gaz rarely smiles if ever and if she does it usually at the suffering of another being. Also, Gaz is rather cynical and extremely hesitant to do anything that does not benefit her. As a result, it is going to be extremely difficult to recruit her.

Even if you offer her the entire collection of the video games that exist in the wider multiverse, there is no promise that she will actually do as you order. As Gaz may simply just blow you off, you may need more incentives to keep Gaz willing to follow your orders… That said Gaz is an experienced brawler, as she has often gotten into fights with both Zim and dib as well as several other beings throughout the world. This combined with her natural ruthlessness makes her an excellent choice as muscle for your adventures across the multi-verse…

  1. Invader Tak- Tak is a little bit better than Gaz, but still comes with her own problems and emotional baggage. Tak is an irken, a rather hostile alien species that seeks to conquer the entirety of the universe. Tak was born like all the other beings within her race, as she was created much like the mice men. As she was born essentially in a specialized Vat and then brought to life by a machine that attached Her Pak (essentially a life-support system/multitool) and proceeded to electrocute her in order to start her heart.

Once she was effectively 'born' she was assigned the role of an invader, an elite warrior class of her species. Whose main role was to invade planets and prepare them for invasion by the rest of the Alien fleet. To which she nearly succeeded in becoming, if it wasn’t for the fact that Zim caused a massive blackout on the testing planet in which she was taking her final exams on.

As a result, Tak was never able to become an invader and was **** into hard labor upon a Junk planet for 70 years. To which she did for about 50 years of the 70-year sentence. During that time Tak scavenged and created what she could to eventually take **** on Zim. To which she eventually did try to Destroy the little green idiot. However, unfortunately, Tak failed in the endeavor as Zim was helped by Dib and his little sister Gaz. Tak tried once again later on when she tried to hollow out the center of the planet to make it essentially a giant refrigerator for the tallest to store their snacks in, but once again failed due to the actions of Zim. Now Tak is now once again on the Junk world where she was exiled to after she failed the invader exams. Only this time she has an even longer sentence of 120 years instead of 70.

This, however, has not stopped Tak wanting **** on Zim and now she even has a little resentment towards the Irken empire. As Tak slowly become fed up with the insanity and stupidity of the Empire. These circumstances have made Tak feel unappreciated and feel that her abilities were being squandered by the bureaucracy of the Empire. You could possibly twist those emotions to get her to join you on your adventure through the multi-verse.

However, this does not mean it would be easy as Tak is still an irken. A species that deems all others less than themselves. So even if you were to offer her a position of your right hand, she may not accept it on the sole grounds that you are not an Irken. Despite this, Tak is an excellent choice as a hench as she has extensive military combat training and has developed great technical expertise from her years of scavenging through the junk world she was exiled on.

As you said before these are perhaps the only two options you have in decent henchmen in this world. As a result, you don’t think you can search any deeper…

Which do you pick?
