Why not just mention to your server player that prototyping it could invoke the Ten Plagues of Egypt or something similarly nasty and that it's not worth the risk?

While that might be amusing to see her reaction, Denise would likely test the theory to spite me. And again, she's not religious, my father is.
For the moment I will tell Kayley, who is still on an alchemization ramage, what things she shouldn't use. She at least is likely to pay attention, and I'm not certain any of us have alchemized much besides food since she took up her self-assigned task of creating more weapons than any of us know what to do with.

chavoy spenih intends to address post-[as ension] [c r uption] in her article but it is worth noting here as well
tuntin thank you for the well-said explanation and reminder sometimes it's easy to forget the objective matters when talking about such things especially with how controversial [co rupt on] is and the topics connected to it
just let's all try to keep things civil if you have to argue about such things take it to private messages thank you
mislul no one wants to see anyone else hurt over all this spenih sympathizes
that said these were all good things to add to the list thank you for your input!

I should probably mention this.
A single squid is fine. Combining multiple squids (or octopi), whether by alchemisation or prototyping, is not, and bears a very slight bit of Other Corruption.

I've heard of relious people being untouched by Angels and atheists corrupted by them. It tends to depend on the individual- and some people just seem somewhat prone to small amounts of it no matter what.
I've never seen a strong case of Angel corruption before, but the Prince of Rage got REALLY corrupted by the Others in my first session- gray skin, gibberish, black oozy stuff, the works. She got chased out of her Dream Tower during an eclipse and got a punch of Other corruption in the face.
Anyway, the Heart player was of dealing with the Bard of Life, so as the Hope player I slammed all the psybuffs in my arsenal on her and proceeded to hug the absolute shit out of that woman.

cL: You did extremely well. Most people freak out at Corrupted Player and forget that even the extreme case of Corruption is curable. Kudos for keeping your cool. Yes, Corruption is dangerous, it is controversial. Does it make Corrupted people gibbering hopeless morons? The answer is: NOPE.
EDIT: Almost forgot: to any of you that think that Angel Corruption only comes from religious texts: pomegranate fruit, which is harmless by itself, when used in Alchemy creates strong Angelic Charge.
Also: unless book is really dripping black/silvery ichor leave it alone. Unless its Necronomnicon, in that case do indulge in burning. Most books don't Corrupt you with their presence alone. Common Sense is everything. If you get paranoid, the next thing you would do is to burn a Goth girl or a guy in a t-shirt with "Jesus Helps" written on it.

Seriously though. Whether one is religious or not has nothing to do with how corruptible they are. Religion can cause problems to player only if they start being idiots about it. Exactly like everything else. Your resistance to corruption depends mainly on your aspects an not at all on whether you are convinced that there's an old bearded guy in the sky.

On that note, what Aspects are resistant or susceptible to corruption?

Stars are the ones that can catch Angelic Corruption cause of their Underworld affinity
Heart is strangely easy to get Corrupted by others and so is Life.
The best resistance is Time Players for Others and Breath Players for Angels.

I'll update the list of known items in a sec. I'll throw in the notes about variable factors between players, too. Just...Sorry. I get the feeling I am not responding in the best manner to this right now.

In my defense, that was four years and several hundred maturity quests ago. I won't disavow it in public for fear of starting a flame war and having to defend my decision, but take it with a grain of salt.

LC: Don't worry about it.
Also: some void players get access to the passive ability [Squidissension] that gives their others resistance a healthy boost. While the natural resistance of Time players is usually better, a Void player with [Squidissension] trumps that. It's how they can take their casual strolls in the outer ring and keep the amount of oozing black ichor to a manageable level.
