[Arsenal] Run for the hills, the GM's had an alignment change. :) WB Ars. Nobody can trust any of my chars :) 're all... what happened? re Ars Ars: did you catch Ch's question on XP? Ars: PTO Ars: Rick's wondering if he can trust anybody Van: I don't trust you in RL I didn't catch anything after Steve mentioned the REF Field Guide Rick: At least, my driving >:) Rick: DCC Send rick.txt (199.224.107.61) Ars: You didn't miss a lot but, XP has not been tallied for this week. :P Rick: send again, plz?

Anya: n/p Kas: http://dagwood.sandwich.net/pics/cvr-she.gif to see what your new armor looks like. kat: How would you feel about an MDC, space-capable, Knights of the Round Summoning Chocobo in your Totally Munched campaign? :) Ummmm....okay? Ars: catch? Arsenal ponders the Great Oozelfinch in the Totally Munched campaign... Ru`ach: DCC SEND rustats.txt (212.150.0.100) Ars: Do it :) van; armour open at the waist? Kasia watches her keyboard semi-cease to function. Um. semi-cease? rob: What? Ars: And if you do it, you'll be the first to meet the MDC Cow from Space. ;) Ars: It isn't working in my other IRC window. ah van; I wouldn't want to be in a fight where I have skin showing. :) rob: What are you talking about? rob` sighs, wanders off. The new armor, I expect. Will: Ah Anyways... my Totally Munched character would be the Godling. or the Glitter Boy Vander rolled up a L8 Jedi Master Ch`Dith eyes the snapshots from tonight's LAN party, needs to talk to Yvonne about making jpegs a resolution that fit in a 1280x1024 monitor. ... and it started working again. anya: how about the Jedi? Rick: I'll let you play, but you go too overboard, it's MDC Cow from Space. ;) I could always convert a Ping Pong Person into Rifts :) Y'all's Jedi. Pfft. An Asha'man would explode their head and be done with it. Kasia ponders making something to drink/eat. Hey... anya he's a level 5 jedi knight. Will: Be better than playing someone fron the House of Jurai anyways, my Jedi's a L1 Knight (Apprentice?) who was a fighter pilot before starting Jedi training. ? ars: sent email to you but I have a limit to how big an attachment I can send. might not work. ars: informal jedi training. ok... cyclone2.gif is up on dagwood... 's the 38-Lite model. kat: Check out yavin4.org for the Rifts converted Jedi OCC Kasia mp3izes s'more instead. I don't know who ows me, but... ;) Van: she's the one who gave me the URL in the first place. %) ars: you check your email yet? Van: I've seen it. Rick: gimme a minute Ars: Ah :) getting soda BRB Anya hangs out on the PML, has seen that address numerous times. :) How do I get on the PML? bak Rick: re: the charsheet... you need 3900 to level next time. I know did it come through ok *nod* Anyone know if KJ's gonna show? Dunno not me search me OK *pats down Steve, looking for any illegal objects* Rick searches through Steve's pockets. "Nope he ain't in there." Vander finds a vial of crack and a Saturday Night Special. Hey, gimme that crack! street value of the crack? Vander pockets the Special $250 black market credit. Vander hands Anya the Crack Anya looks at it. Uses her Crack Detection Skillz. %) Anya: The crack is from Colombia, and is laced. Oooh. Kasia glances up, daymns. ;) rob` grumbles.. what's wrong with C4nuck cr4ck? Anya hands the vial back to Vander. Just sugar, not gonna get you anything. ;) Kasia sighs, wants to know the tab for this song. :/ "damn low grade crack!" rob: Most Canadian crack is found sticking out the backs of folx pants Will GMs a drug bust! %^) heh. rob` idly wonders how much narcotic gets to the US via Vancouver most places there isn'te even a fence. :) rob: Only Celine Dion's singing and the X-files movie. j/k Will: don't forget Shannia Twain. http://dagwood.sandwich.net/pics/ru.jpg <-- that accurate? Shania's from Canada? No way! yeah backwater Ontario, yeah Ch`Dith offhandedly wonders if we're starting any time soon.. oh, damn... waitin' on the Druggies? Ch: Yep. Ch: looks it... Vander shoves a Fat Chocobo down Rick's throat for mentioning.... that name Give 'em till 11, them stick 'em in neutral. Will whacks Vander. Shania is damn!fine. rob` bloodyassists! will Arsenal helps rob Kasia stands by with her hands in her pockets o/~ Look like we made it / we're still together, baby... o/~ rob` has about 20 Shania tracks at home, but not on CD.. :/ besides, anyone who counts the Eagles as an influence isn't all bad. Ars: *nodnod* rob: You like her that much, PAY. Rick changes topic to "Let the Hobbit Stomping Begin!!!" I just find her and her music annoying will; I've seen her in concert, and that's enough "pay" for me rob: Neat. MMkay. van: but you gotta admit. She has got one hot body. Kasia ponders getting tix to That San Rafel Show. anyway, you guys have a game to play. :) Arsenal points to the link he posted above... that seem accurate for our resident spell-slinger? Rick: Van's neuter, remember? Rick: She's not that good looking oh yeah. That's right. Rick slaps Vander around a bit with a large trout van; in leather, she is Anya has more space on the mp3 drive, is prolly going to start moving mp3s into the windows directory to make room. :P Rick: Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!! rob: Bah Arsenal would like to point out that the last "person" UL said was "good looking" was an anime broad. Not the troutslap! Ars: A little too... don't know how to define it. Too "too" in daisy dukes and a cut off t-shirt she is. Vander shoves Rick down the sink drain and thumps him in good and tight with a broomstick SteveM shoves Vander down the gold head and packs him in properly with a toilet plpunger Ch: I saw that pic in FoM and said, "That's our Ru." %) Speaking of Stopming, now that I was actually in driving distance of New York I'm seriously considering getting tix for Stomp. Prolly need to find out how much they are. Kasia pushes Van into a Turbo Toilet Will: I saw that HBO special they did Ars: I forget. Which anime chick was that? Will quietly pulls on large, heavy, spiked boots. Rick uses Vanders toung as a fan belt and starts the engine. controlfreak.sandwich.net/happy.mid <-- this is what a piano, liking harmony, and 3 free hours do to a person. :) Van: I forget... I think it was one of the ones in Dominion Tank Police. Ars: Ah. Probly the Puma Sisters Idunno. I kind of see her more like, say, a really messed-up version of the kid on page 13 in the main book. Ars: One of the Puma sisters? Will uses the boots to Make Vander One With Mother Earth through the process or repeated pounding. or -> of o/~ When it's noon on the moon, what time is it here? o/~ Anya: neap tide. *G* Ch: if she was a headhunter, I'd say yeah. anya; depends on what time of the lunar cyc--damn Will: You've got to check out this song sometime. ;) Title? SteveM tosses in a couple tabs of some base just to get the toilet clean... %) That's Mathematics. Tom Lehrer. An: I need to grab those... Ah. Was donloading it earlier, will do so again soon. in my ftp under moremp3/TomLehrer there's about eight more Lehrer tracks that I haven't been able to find anywhere, and especially not in the CD store. :/ AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! "Schoolhouse Rocks" songs. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! anyways.... Ars: Remember she didn't really have much more than the shirt on her back when she left home. She's bought new stuff now, but I think she doesn't have the self-confidence/self-assurance you'd need to wear an outfit like that. ch: who?? That outfit basically says "Look at me. This is what I am. If you have a problem with that, kindly go to hell." I don't see Ru thinking that way quite yet. Rick: http://dagwood.sandwich.net/pics/ru.jpg Kas, on the other hand... *ducksandruns* Ch: *chuckle* Ch: Kas *would*. ;) it's the shades... %) *nod* But Ru wouldn't. Ars: Suuuuure..... The shades help. But it's the entire outfit and the stance. Kasia BEGS this program to please save this file as somethign sensible, and not as Hard Travelin'. Besides, I always thought of Ru as being a bit young to look that good Kas: What proggy? Pardon the moment of weakness Van: it's not a weakness to admit that you actually have hormones. Ars: Heh Ch: CDex. Van: Ars is right, you know. Ru: No offence meant if I'm interpreting your char all wrong.... Kasia: *shrug* Kas: Give audiocatalyst a go. it's in /uploads on dwagon's FTO Van: it doesn't make you weak to adbit you have a jabroni rather than just being one. Kasia watches it save it as Hard Travelin'. -O+P Ch: Uh... CDex works for me, and it does all the neat stuff I want it to. It just saves partial files as the first song on the CD. ;) SteveM watches Rick mix metaphors? Steve: He does that often -b+m Arsenal grabs a pic of the CVR-3 while we're waiting... Ars: Domo. Vander ponders actually drawing folx Ch`Dith throws the LAN-party snaps on www while idling Rick decides to download a few mp3s while waiting Kas: the CVR-she is already up... http://dagwood.sandwich.net/pics/cvr-she.gif Ars: Okee. cvr-3.gif is the male armor Yeah, Kasia is leaving the helmet off that *often*. :) heheh Arsenal hunts for the armor Steve is wearing... Ars: SC roolbook, p. 29 Kasia records a Large Kingston Trio song. Err... make that two tied together. Steve: domo hrrm... book opened up right to the hovercycle... o/~ He put five bucks in his pocket, kissed his wife and family, went to ride on the BAR-T. o/~ %) *snicker* anya; five bucks wouldn't get him halfway :) rob: Enh, it's about five-fifty to get me to Frisco and back. rob: Well, neither would ten cents. ;) anya; bah, destroy my little happy world of self-delusion, whydoncha. :) Will recalls his long-ago trip to San Francisco.. my dad viewed that BART as a tourist attraction, we rode for about an hour. Will: *snicker* my parents did the same thing. will; my grandparents still do it, and they live here Weirdness. bus to skytrain, skytrain to end of line, seabus to North Vancouver, and go back. Anya uses it for more pragmatic reasons now. But it's still fun to just get off and ride in some random direction. kats; *nod* Although I can almost maybe see it... I mean, if I take Amtrak home, I'm kinda looking forward to how the ride will be. Never did a train before. Rick wounders how long it'll be till we get started. Yah, it's 11. Ru`ach will brb - foodgetting rob` afks to grab food. Here, anyway. Kasia should make a shake. She was *going* to make a shake. "Then, for the thousands in attendance, the millions watching on TV around the megaverse.... LLLLLET'S GET READY TO BEAT SOME ASSSSSSS!!!" b hrrm..... Vander hides Enh. Ice cream. Breakfast enough. %) :9 Kasia already had ice cream. ;P Ru: Which hour is it there? Will: 5am "Finally... The Rick Has Come Back To (insert town here)." (I'm stuck in Shad's timezone for a while) bum ba bum bum bum bah bum... Kasia afks for food, like everyone before her. BRB. Ch`Dith @hrms at Van. "Isn't that the wrong outfit?" Vander doodles faces and stuff for the Rifts folx when last we saw our heroes, they were on a barge crossing the Mississippi and Ohio rivers, and had just been boarded by a CS Patrol. lemme load the log... +ideas for Ch`Dith thinks fast. Ru`ach helps. Ch`Dith . o O (*tightbeam to Steve* Perhaps the best lie to give these people is part of the truth.) Will lounges against a rail. Very nonchalantly. Vander , back in the safety of the new NSCHQ, belches loudly as he finishes lunch the Duke is hiding in the APC... Ch`Dith . o O (We are mercenaries. Our passenger wishes us to investigate the site where his daughter's bodyguards lost contact with him.) . o O (You may be right.) *heads back topside* ars: where am I? Ch`Dith fires the story suggestion to each in turn, still tightbeamed. Rick: where would you be? Anya fiddles with the fragment s'more, sorta nods quietly, still doesn't say anything. in the APC but I wanted to make sure. Will responds, if possible, *Does the Duke wanna go along? Where is he, anyway?* the CS SAMAS asks the captain of the barge about the cargo. Ch`Dith . o O (*to the fat one* It would help if you acted the distraught, wealthy, influential father who is none too happy at the risk any delay might mean to her safety.) Vander is now known as DukeRyan "Just a few large vehicles my passengers want delivered safely to the other side of the river." *to whoever's in the APC with him* "Did you sasy something?" Bystander [darkside@cz-cblk-150-16-76.cyberzone.net] has joined #Rifts [Bystander] It's DarkSide! Wai! 'lo DS Bystander glances around bovinely, mooing to no one in particular Hey DS moo DS. Hi DS. hey DS Arsenal sets mode: +oo Bystander rob` Ch`Dith . o O (I did not.) Hey DS! Bystander is going to idle and sit in. :) "Uh-huh. I need to speak with these passengers of yours." "Where are they?" "You can start by speaking to me." KillJoy_ [KillJoy@kronos-2-139.mdm.mkt.execpc.com] has joined #Rifts Arsenal sets mode: +o KillJoy_ Hey KJ Hey Druggie oi, KJ what kept ya? Grrr... brains. Ch`Dith acts as nonchalantly annoyed as possible while standing less than a pace away from the Deadboy. All right! KillJoy_ is now known as Trent Work. Ah hey druggie DukeRyan listens to the radio play Dirty Laundry :) KJ: nothing's happened, we've just barely started. Ch'Dith has beamed you a plan, like everyone else, to get the CS off our backs by pretending to be a rescue party for Duke Ryan's daughter. The soldier turns to look at Steve. "And you are?" Ah. Anya looks out over the river, ignoring the Deadboys and the controversy going on around her. "I happen to be leading a rescue party for a patron's daughter. As for the vehicles, you can never be too careful in the Magic Zone, can you?" Will are you around me? Rick: Nope. I'm up on deck, in the bow. Rick: That was OOC to KJ. DukeRyan is now known as Vander "I need to see them. Especially that one over there." The Sam points to the tarp-covered VHT. Vander putters around the NSCHQ, doing minor repairs and stuff I know I wanted to know where his char was. Vander is now known as DukeRyan "Is there any particular reason?" Ch`Dith leans boredly over the railing, observes the Barracuda and makes estimates in his head where to hit, what to aim for and how fast it'd need to be done.. Kasia frowns @ the Dead Boys, refraining from blasting their brains into wet oatmeal by considerable force of cold, harsh logic. "I'll tell you that when I see it." p rob` kills Mal hello. rob: mischan Trent thinks he'd still probably be skulking in the shadows. Not necessarily hiding, just... not in the open. ars; yeah. :/ DukeRyan decides to go out on deck "You do realize that speed is essential for the successful completion of our mission? That every minute we spend here is one less minute we have to keep a father's daughter from being rendered into mincemeat?" *to Steve* "Captain! Is there a reason for this delay?" "So open the tarp, and let's get on with it." *to the Duke* "Yes, sir, there is. These gentlemen are insisting they look at our vehicles." Anya plays with the fragment some more, rotating it and pondering it. Rick checks the APC's Systems. *over comm* Will you wanna help me check APC systems?" Will flinches. ................................................................. Ch`Dith looks up. "Whaddaya expect, Captain? They're always kinda edgy when they find people doing their job for 'em?" this said in a drawl that'd make Van proud. Rick: Remind me to strangle you for that idiocy. Rick: I'm going to assume you meant over the internal radio, not a PA system yeah DukeRyan spares the CS Grunt the barest of glances. "I have no interest in what these people want. We must be on our way." Will relaxedly turns his radio off. Ars: Doesn't Steve have a radio on him? Kas: yeah... does he have it turned on or off, tho? It's in my helmet. Oh, *phew* Trent hears Rick's transmission, involuntarily winces. "Hey, vix! Keg party in the vehicle bay! Bring the weed!' :) RL err, ROFL what's going on right now? Fill me in. Rick: There's a Coalition Soldier on our deck, who would be not real happy if he found our APC. You were already told we were being boarded by CS and to keep quiet. I think that was in last session's log. , btw. Kasia ponders using Jedi Mind tricks. the SAM, on the other hand, turns his head to look at the larger tarp. "On second thought, I'd like to see what is under *that* tarp." Trent OOCly ponders using Angry Juicer Gun Tricks. Ch: I wasn't at last session. It was MY BIRTHDAY. *knock on Ch`dith's head "Hello Mcly."8 +f-8+* Rick: There's a log. You were supposed to peruse that, especially the last part so you'd know the sitch. and, due to a very busy week, last session's log ain't up yet... hold tight while I upload. Ch: ... actually... Ch: There's no log. SO there. Ch`Dith . o O (*tightbeam to the Melter* If he finds the APC, knock out their radio. If they call for backup we're all dead.) *to Ryan* "I believe their paranoia is overruling their supposed concern for people's safety. Namely, your daughter's." . o O (If it comes to that, I've got the SAM) . o O (Will do.) Rick: That still doesn't excuse one of the stupidest pranks you've pulled in quite some time. Rick: Don't cop an attitude. We'd been talking in channel for some time THIS SESSION about exactly what was going on. DukeRyan turns his full attention on the CS Grunt. "Who is your commanding officer? I demand to see him immedaitely! *to Steve* If this takes too much longer, someone is going to pay dearly!" "Paranoia, eh? We've been tracking a stolen APC for a few days now." Will: This is assuming meeth even notices any comment not directed at him specifically. to the Duke, "I *am* the Commanding Officer, as far as you are concerned." "Stolen APC, eh? You do know that Coalition APCs are often sold on the black market?" Kasia focuses her breathing for about fifteen seconds, slipping quietly into combat mode.(Intuitive Combat) Ch`Dith outwardly gives no reaction. Inwardly prepares for a dwagon-patented uberleap "Yes, I do. And we make it a habit to locate and retrieve each and every one of them." by the way, the log is up. Anya takes a deep breath, with her hands tightening on the fragment. Curses silently as a sharp edge slices into her hand. "So the chances of any APC found here being the one you're looking for are quite remote at best?" "That's a laugh." "Now, do you show me what is under thattarp, or do I call in an air- strike on this barge?" *to The CS Officer* "Don't take that tone with me, you pathetic underling! You are causing an insufferable delay, the reprecussions of which very well may land squarely on your neck!" Will smells cooking tension, prepares to RunForArmsIfNecessary[tm]. SteveM walks backward toward the Plow, talking. "All right, let's get down to brass tacks." Kasia follows Steve, keeping her eyes on the Dead Boys Ch`Dith . o O (*to Steve* on your mark... ) . o O (Already ahead of you.) Will heads roundaboutly in the direction of the door on the other side of the APC, still waiting until a fight breaks. Ch`Dith resumes leaning, glances at the barracuda again, notes the antennae closely. Anya looks dumbly at her bleeding hand. Gets up. Starts wandering to the far side of the deck. "You obviously are looking for this APC for another reason, other than it being stolen. So I figure that whoever has it must have done some serious shit." Ru`ach [whtstar2@pop03-1-ras1-p100.barak.net.il] has quit IRC (Sorry, guys. I really can't do this right now. :/) Will notices Anya. . o O (What the hell is she doing? Jesus, is she bleeding? *TORN* Continues getting in position.) "Otherwise, you wouldn't be so insistent. Right or wrong?" *grabs a ahold of the Plow's tarp as he asks this* The Sam walks over to the tarp, and pulls it aside, revealing part of the APC's rear section. "During the theft, several of the soldiers inside were killed. They were murdered for the APC." Trent aims at the head of the SAM, waiting. Still concealed. *to CS Officer* "That is a pity, but it has nothing to do with us. Be quick about this." "Is it as really as open and shut as that? What if there was another reason?" Ch`Dith touches his inner abilities. Calling to - but not yet summoning - his true form. The SAM notes the outlandish paint job the hobbit performed on the APC. "This ain't the one." *choke* *to CS Officer* "Very good of you to notice. Now please get out of our way." Anya holds her bleeding hand into her other hand, tries desperately to ignore the CS soldiers and the pain in her hand. SteveM lets go of the tarp. "So there you go. Wasn't worth all that bluster, wasn't it?" "Just keep your noses clean when you return back this way," is all he says as he flies off. "Captain, you may proceed." Kasia sighs, releases the energy she had stored. DukeRyan goes back into the APC rob` ponders MiSTing this. Trent waits for the grunt to get off the boat, sighs loudly. "That was close." He lowers his rifle. SteveM waits for the grunts to get in their boat and travel off... "5... 4... 3... 2... 1... *sigh*" DukeRyan heads straight for the head and heaves his guts Will heads for Anya. "Jesus, child, what happened?" Ch`Dith relaxes his hold. Nonchalantly walks back inside. [EXHALES] Anya looks at Will, blinks. Kasia sighs and rubs her head. "Your hand." "Remind me to give Vander a raise when we get back." Anya looks at her hand. Blinks again. Trent pulls off his helmet, walks out from the shadows. "Done. He's earned it this time." "Uhhh...broken thing. Playing with it." "Come on, I'll grab a sterilizer and a bandage from the first aid kit. No use Ch`Dith spending more power on fixing that." Will quickly eyes the broken thing. Upon closer inspection, 'Mitchell's Marauders' can be seen painted in fancey cursive by the rear right wheelwell :) Will: it's nothing you can recognize. Anya nods silently, and follows Will, pocketing the piece of broken thing first. Will does as he said he would with first aid kit and all. Paramedic roll? just a fragment of glass... Bystander disappears into the void <[11:47 PM]:> AutoGone - 20 min <[Log:ON]> Will: *nod* SteveM eyes the script writing. "On second thought...." 27 needed 50. Passed. Kasia chuckles a bit edgily. Will also privately thinks horrible things about increasing distraction, isolation, and self-mutilation, all of which he prays are paranoia. Trent chuckles too. "Figures." Anya mutters, "It was an accident." "'Course." Rick looks around out the window. .oO(I wounder if it's safe to come out.) The rest of the trip across the rivers passes quietly... it is late afternoon when the crew finishes unloading the vehicles. ^^^^^^ Sincerely. scratch last line Rick: Not for quite some time for you... SteveM uses the quiet time to paint out the Mitchell's Marauders script. "The answer's around here somewhere, and I'm gonna find it if it's the last thing I do." Trent refuels his Tarantula while they're still going, chats with Ru, etc. Kasia helps Steve. *later* "Let's get more inland... we got a ways to go yet." *muttered when he gets news of Anya's cut* "Remind me to get a full- time shrink for this outfit." By a few hours later, Will is excited again about the prospect of exploring the Magic Zone. "Or a chaiplan?" "Preferrably both." Rick checks the APC's Systems. as a reminder to all psychics, mages, and dragons: since you are in the Magic Zone, all abilities that are affected by ley lines will be. "I guess Vix doesn't really qualify for that second one." Anya follows Will around, like a shadow, and is getting fairly interested in this magic zone place as well. Ars: Gotcha DukeRyan is now known as Vander *to Kasia* "Unless your idea of sacred services involves a great deal of ... medicinal herbs." Vander props his feet up on the desk he got set upo in the main barracks of the NSCHQ, and promptly falls asleep. "*Snkkkkkzzzzzzzzzz* "Or just plain getting stoned." Vander is now known as DukeRyan Van: hold on, we'll get back to you shortly. Will discusses theories as to why ley lines cluster so thickly here. Random convergence? Consequence of The Devil's Gate? Something having to do with the geological or biological conditions of the Mississippi? Kasia adds to Will's speculation. "Dumb luck?" Ars: Was that a midget joke? No Anya argues back at Will. Population density during the Great Cataclysm? Ru pipes in, "They've always been there, just not as powerful. As for why? Why bother asking?" Ch`Dith points out that the Mississippi wasn't populated, and yet miles of it are higly active Anya shrugs, smiles. "'Twas a guess, I don't claim to be much of an expert at Ley Lines." Will laughs good-humoredly at Kasia's comment. "'Random convergence' is scientific obfuscation-ese for 'dumb luck.'" ;^) "There's not many in Lone Star." Smiles. Because some not-so-benevolent entity looked down at the mid- west and decided to play connect the dots? :) *chuckle* QOTN! Becuase Siembeda is from the Midwest? Trent: Like I said... ;) Rick looks at a map. about where are we? Rick: north side of the Ohio, in southern Illinois Ch`Dith notes that several of the greater nexus points were known in ancient times. Stonehedge, Devil's Gate, the Wheel, etc. Mayhap this influx of energy happened before -- and will happen again. Anya nods. The sun sets 2 hours after you disembark from the barge... ... so maybe this "cataclysmic disaster" is really no different from the turning of the seasons... *radioed from way the hell in front of the convoy* "We stopping for the night?" *radioed* "That's affirmative." "You really know how to depress someone, Ch'Dith." "Rog, Cap'n. Turning back." "Neat." *radioed* "We're coming up to meet you." who has Sense Evil? "You mean, someday, this all might recede again, and people will forget of magic and supernatural?" "Okay, sir. I'll be here." Ch`Dith smiles. "In what way? The Earth recovers. The cycle swings back into life." Kasia gets a chair with a back and a paddes seat. Oww. Ch`Dith does. Ah... Ru does, too, if she uses the spell... *to Anya* "Let's hope not. Before, the recording of history was not so well-developed, or so conscientious. It's our duty to remember and pass it on." Ars: I do... "Life and death are both part of the whole cycle. Without one, the other would be meaningless." Trent stops his bike, scanning for trouble still. Anya nods. "The eternal circle." Err, wait. Actually, jsut 6th Sense. "hey Will. could you take control for a little while? I'm gonna go do something." Trent: there are a few blips on your radar at varying distances... nothing steady. Will thinks he can handle parking the APC for the night. (btw, Rick, I won't have the skill until I level up.) I know *to Will* "Not to hear the Coalition tell it." About how far away, and coming closer? Ch: You get a sense of overriding evil in the vicinity, but nothing concrete. "But who gives a rat's ass what those candyasses think?" Trent: some are getting closer, others are moving away. "Words out of my mouth, Steve." Ah. Rick goes into the back to his room. sits in the corner and cries. Ch`Dith growls low in his throat, tries to focus and get a clear reading others are just moving across the screen, nothing coming straight at you. "I do not like this place." "Hey Steve... I've got some contacts here, nothing coming at me though. Might be a good idea to keep a tidy campsite." Ch: you sense several supernatural predators in the vicinity radioed, that. Ars: Anything that'd worry me?
