What do you think the best one is? Or really any ideas at all. This is, like, technically for a project that might see work, like, ever, but then I realized it's kind of the perfect forum question.
Egbert is obviously not busting out Ancestral Awakening, unless you happen to think it'd be really funny with regards to the tall, heeled boots and tights. But really. What does the funny hammer do on a perfect 8^8? A 413? bluh bluh.

There are, all told, a total of 16,777,216 possible effects the Pop-a-matic Vrillyhoo Hammer can produce — this is the exact same number as the number of possible effects the Fluorite Octet can give, which is 8^8. This tells us that each of the 8 d8 in the Octet is considered unique and has its specific place in deciding which effect is activated.
That is to say, a roll of 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 is distinct from a roll of 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1. How the uniqueness of each die is determined is presently not known. It could be that each die has its pips distributed differently so none of them are identical. It could be that the d8s are all identical but it is the order in which they land and give their values that decides what effect is activated.
And will we let the fire go out?
Is this the end for them now?

Will we let the fire go.. out?

RE: [nobleRadi8ion]
Yes, there are 8^8 permutations, but I think it'd be wrong to call each die unique! Remember, the roll of the Vrillyhoo is displayed as though its options are spun on a wheel. Also, while it's shown (never close-up) as 8d8, it's also designed to look like the Doomsday Device. So the rolls could be multiplicative-- As in, Egbert rolls a 16,777,216 and it's a critical hit with extra cake and pumpkins, or whatever.

the Vrillyhoo hammer is sort of a joke weapon, as the original hammer always was. not that it’s not effective, but it comes with a territory of jokes and pranksterism thaT surrounds John. I think ancestral awakening would still fit, but with John’s ancestor; his prankster nanna or possibly even Sassacre.
This is some straight up delirious biznasty, Dawg!!
Getting away from direct ancestry into "idealized aspirational figure", Ancestral Awakening could just be Cameron Poe
