Heard you need a nice strong man to help you. He spends a second straightening out his hair. Got to look nice for the ladies too, strong and a gentleman.

"Those must be some -- discriminating -- ladies. Telirix Sporestorm, gentleman of fortune, at your service."

A tall thin male damaya lashunta leans casually in the doorway. His antennae sweep an arc that encompasses the room. He's wearing a green basic flight suit. A cheap needler pistol and a couple grenades hang on his belt. A simple pack is slung over one shoulder; the nose of a light reaction cannon secured to the pack with webbing can be seen over his shoulder.

[Shifty]

OK thats FOUR players - up to 2 spots remaining.

Welcome back therealthom!

[Makai]

Hey therealthom, DG!

It seems that we have a well-rounded team, Soldier, Envoy, Technomancer and Mystic. We should have all skills covered (even if in most of them we have 1 PC to roll ;))

[Tim Power!]

One of my games didn't start. So i will join.

[Shifty]

Welcome!

[Tim Power!]

As I noticed now, all of the character are in the 1-2 tier.
I will change the character for a 1-2.

[DM Kludde]

Still a spot left? I have a mystic or a technomancer in the 1-2 tier, and would love to join.

6 Sleeps to go!

[Makai]

Just FYI: I bought for Makai Technopathy Node augmentation (throat) which basically gives her limited telepathy with constructs which would be RZMR. Not that I think it matters but just letting Shifty know.

[O.K. Coral]

I am so excited!

[Shifty]

ONE SLEEP TO GO!

[Makai]

woohooo!

[RZMR]

You hold on for one more cycle, while your brain regenerates from the strain of its inputs and rejuvenates for another day of toil. Come the next, your journey to enlightenment shall start.

[O.K. Coral]

I am quite Curious Tellrix. Do you have the profenciency to wield an heavy weapon at level 1?

[therealthom]

No. But the damage is so much better, that I think much of the time I'll be ok. I'm planning to multiclass into soldier at level 2. If hitting is a problem, I've got the dart gun too.

[therealthom]

Sorry, Gayel. I read the italics as broadcast telepathy even though you didn't bold them. I'll pay more attention. Oh and nice way to work that little nudge into your RP. Respect.

And OK's name suddenly became pretty funny. Nice.

[O.K. Coral]

No worry. I knew the mishap, but i still roll with it.

I forgot to say about what copaxi are

A copaxi is a colony of individual, genetically identical polyps that have developed into an anthropomorphic form. Each polyp includes five feeding tentacles, about 2 inches long, that facilitate filter feeding. These polyps adapt and intertwine to form every part of a copaxi’s body. Their segmented, calcium-rich exoskeletons sometimes develop elaborate horns and head crests that serve as unique identifiers for a copaxi.

And they don't have mouth, but still can speak.

And Ok has clothing similar to western wear.

Poeple takes time to realise the pun.

[therealthom]

Got to say my first thought when we entered the room was -- gamer-boy's man-cave. And I'm seeing our interlocutor as Dad in Back to the Future.

[O.K. Coral]

I am having a blast for the moment. A mystery to unravel, one sentence at a time.

[Makai]

For me it's like a horror movie ;) Clone-infested space, you show up in a basement just to be fed oddly tasting tea by a bunch of weirdos. Not far along you wake up wearing white sox to your sandals :P Horrifying :D

p.s. I still don't get the pun behind OK;) I am letting giving myself more time to realize.

[therealthom]

The pun is based on old time American West lore. You might also get it if you were a HUGE fan of the original Star Trek.

[O.K. Coral]

Huge fan of the original Star Trek?

I am not but i am curious.

[therealthom]

One of the best episodes of the rather abysmal third season, Spectre of the Gun.

[Makai]

Ahh, ok. Yeah, there is no way for me to figure it out. I googled it and it was a gunfight in Arizona

I've never seen that western and I am no a Star Trek fan.

[O.K. Coral]

I think RMZR would play also?

[therealthom]

Don't know why, but I really wanted to beat them. And it gave me a chance to use detect thoughts which I seldom remember. The dice were way against us though.

:D Yeah. We did not roll very well. But it was a good attempt. Especially the idea of cheating them. I liked it. Well done.

WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD
Vault 341 consists of about one square mile of suburban-style neighborhood surrounded by a holographic perimeter disguised as greenery.

KEY LOCATIONS

Board Meeting: This communal building located at the center of the neighborhood operates as a library and play space for various analog games. Games -- Joros are smart and dedicated.

BoThumbs Up: A small whizdisk-themed sports bar a few blocks away from the metalworks. This popular local hangout doesn’t open for business until early evening.

In-Choir-Ing Minds: This small musical performance studio is located in the eastern part of the vault.

OuroJoros Hospital: A hospital equipped for minor emergencies located to the north, near the Whizdisk Stadium.

Beg, Borrow, and Steel Metalworks: Located along the vault’s southern perimeter, this scrapyard and outdoor workspace surrounds a set of spigots and valves that pump out molten metals used for construction and manufacturing. Divergent Relton

Sketch That Kitsch: A glass-walled art gallery to the west displays and sells artwork created by vault residents. Divergent Annalise

Whizdisk Stadium: This massive stadium complex houses sports fields and serves as a bustling daytime hangout for whizdisk players. Divergent Finbar

Yo Gurt to Try This: This health-focused smoothie bar located on a residential street to the west currently offers free samples. Divergent Kenro

[Gayel Nord]

Wait.. we could have rolled athletics?

[Shifty]

Well you could have picked up the equipment and started playing etc, but you all wandered off instead.

[O.K. Coral]

I understand now. Joros wake up some day and find were they are good at working and so they work there. You need to act like you belong here.

And what fun would that be? I like walking into danger. Actually, I didn't think it was worth it, the characters themselves should be prepared.

[O.K. Coral]

Can we help her with an enginnering roll or something

[Shifty]

What are you Engineering?

There are a number of things you can do.

[O.K. Coral]

G%* d*!mit GM you are making us roleplay! I would suppose helping find the good bits or putting some order in this scrapyard.

[Shifty]

Well write it up and throw some supporting dice and we can see what happens... :)

[Shifty]

Friday afternoon here - heading into work and up into the mountains with a crew for a couple of days for some adventures with mud and chainsaws due to the 'rain bomb' that has hit the region. Back Sunday night my time (~48 hrs)

Will post if I can get comms up there but otherwise offline.

[O.K. Coral]

Makai, you could "soften the foes", take a -4 for non lethal or wait that we drop one to steal his non lethal weapons, or you could harring fire those (like me ) who have non lethal- weapon.

[therealthom]

Or we could just kill them and take their stuff!
