Btw I've been thinking about this. But since we have established that EMS/Rinnegan eyes don't get lost when using Izanagi... I was wondering if Izanami should be given the same consideration?

I suppose that would make sense, wouldn't it?
Although I think there should be some reduced penalty still, at least for a limited duration.

Cool. I'll look it up in more detail some other time, I'm getting tired fast.

Taken straight off the wiki.
What's it supposed to be?

It is, and as I said, the wiki said it exactly as I described it. Oh well. I'll use blonde then. Thanks.

Also I don't know if it's changed in recent years, but I think you wrote the rules to Technarch feeding wrong.
They can't absorb the energy from inorganic things. Just plants and animals. If you mean they assimilate and absorb inorganic matter... I think you're thinking of the Phalanx actually.

Taken from the Marvel Database and Magus' wikipedia entries (with Warlock's entry of the database having essentially an identical description as the first one):
I disagree. The various sources I have seen indicate the ability to turn 'objects' (as opposed to organic objects), and mention being able to get nourishment from 'ambient and artificial sources', which to me clearly indicate they absolutely can do so. From what I understand, they can transform essentially anything into techno-organic matter from which they can get nourishment, although organic matter seems both their favorite, and one of the best sources of energy. As far as I'm concerned, that's just a matter of interpretation and I see no statement supporting that it cannot be done.

.... Yeah I'm not believing something from a wiki. Unless you can show me a specific comic issue where they do convert and absorb the life energy from an non-living organic object. That interpretation is wrong.

*Shrugs.*
The same can be said in response to your statement. Here, look. "Unless you can show me a specific comic issue in which they clearly state that the Technarchy are unable to turn inorganic matter into techno-organic matter to consume it, then your interpretation is wrong."
So, think whatever you will, but as far as I'm concerned, I have sources - and whether you agree or not, I consider the Marvel Database to be a very much accurate source of information in general which is generally maintained by people who know a lot more about comics than I do - supporting my interpretation, and you don't. Therefore, until I see a better source stating otherwise, I'll believe what I've seen regardless, with all due respect.

The Official handbook of the Marvel Universe states it has to be a living organism. As does Warlock, and Magus' profiles in the MSH Roleplaying game.

*sigh* I'm sorry... I know Warlock can also drain energy from power outlets and stuff, I just don't believe he can or should be allowed to drain energy from things like a sofa or a rock.

Frankly, the latter would have no impact whatsoever since it is nowhere near an official source, but you got me curious with the former one. I do own two different official Marvel dictionaries and sourcebooks, from Marvel Comics themselves.
So I checked them more thoroughly, and both indeed mention the ability to convert organic matter to techno-organic in order to consume it. I'm going to have to admit that you're right, for the most part anyway.
I still believe my other sources who state that 'some' artificial sources can be used for sustenance, as well as energy sources. So I maintain that point, although I must leave which artificial sources are usable to the GM, since it is left vague and unclear.
My final interpretation is as follows: Technarchs can absorb any form of living organic matter be it plant or being, can draw energy from any regular energy source, and can convert 'some' artificial matter, the latter of which is left to GM interpretation.
