Another detail, MC with high corruption, another notable difference in powers, makes his tail act on its own and more aggressively as well. "Pretty fucking cool shit!" Also, you'll probably have more trouble keeping your tentacles from devouring people. But you'll have more chances to make the monsters submit to you as well as Minyak for now!
I think this just furthers the idea that Ella isnt manipulating the situation as much as some people claim (Being MC dad, faking her friendships for almost a decade etc). Ella allegedy does all this stuff to MC but then when she gets to know MC (personally know MC since she had to do research/interact with MC as dad) she is willing to put her entire plan at risk? No matter if you are as kind/understanding/of the same mind as she is? While it hasn't happened yet we "know" that at some point we are going to be given a choice to side with her or not/kill her or not/fulfill her plan or ruin it so that means Ella is willing and able to have a decade long plan involving governments and extremely powerful people but then almost instantly is willing to throw it away for love (again even if you pick every "negative" option with her like you dont like your powers etc).
The tail operates on it's own with low corruption too, but I'll pay attention to it more in the low and high corruption runs to see how differently it acts.
Ella does alot of work to manipulate Jake to turn him against you, she was also working behind the scenes manipulating things with the Aldains and with Jared's dad. So she's doing a fair bit of manipulation, but she's unlikely to be the main factor behind the scenes.
She's undoubtedly being manipulative but like you said its very unlikely that she is the driving force, also big agree on the fact we have no idea if her goals are "good" or "bad" although the people claiming the more outrageous things seem to be convinced shes undoubtedly evil. Something else that I thought about is what was going on for hundreds of years before Ella was born? Were all the numbered monsters just being mindless/lazy/chained up but then when this random human got powers (even though she would go on to be a "failure" at level 5) they basically all got involved?
I am replaying SH right now and just noticed another detail - that right after Klaus' death your monster parent tells MC to devour Alice and with high corruption you can understand it.
friday or saturday according to patreon post, bout a week he said, super excited.still no update
better push it to sunday just in case
Well, too bad for mommy "4th" Alice is my main waifu I won't do anything against her. if I could, I would devour Klaus, just like I did with Danica and Kenny when you had enough power.
Satiation and power boost. Why humans? Fuck if I know.
Doesn't what the monsters say change depending on your corruption level as well? I remember a guy translated what your monster parents said somehow, and with high corruption it told you to eat more people and you could understand it. And low corruption asked you to get more allies or something. I'm probably remembering this for wrong, it was a few hundred pages back.
If you look in the code for the monster dreams you get one of two versions depending on your corruption:
Food/power mostly. There's also the possibility that they're doing it to mutate themselves too but that's unlikely.
If you mean the monster inside, i guess it's for the corruption, high corruption means you can understand monster language better but also acting out of instinct more often, so you'll be more monster than human since your inner monster will get more control... You will risk monsterfication if you're not strong enough to handle the corruption, meaning the monster is in total control.... (Oscar seems to be monsterfied, we know from Charlie he's a smart guy, he didn't show much intelligence though, but that could be a side effect from getting infected after he died, his turning seems somewhat special)
