"Ma'am? Hello?"
Stephen Hawking continues trying to get a response from the woman.
"Yeah, what is it? You want something?" She says, looking over the top of her book at you. "Because I try not to get into too much small talk with people whole haven't gone through a mission or two."
Go into the new room and search for the exit.
You hop down into the room. As soon as you land, the room changes from a nice, even white lighting to a blinking red. A shrill tone plays. This doesn't seem great...
Chin scratches his goatee. "That makes sense, yes. Though I imagine that with a battlesuit leg it wouldn't be as easy to do it slow - it's likely moving, it likely has sensors warning the user, and even if not, the user will notice at some point."

Appearance: 5'11'', 170 pounds in a rather unmuscular frame, shoulder-long brown hair, short goatee, brown eyes, a rather long chin that earned him his nickname. Age 32
Half a robot foot. Robot right arm.
"Still easier then trying to vaporize it. In the case that it's moving, you can always try to melt the surface it's standing on then harden it back up; trapping the thing. Or hit the cameras; thats always a good one."
"all right, yeah, that makes sense."
speak, await further lessons
"Alright; Now, you should know that when it comes to difficulty of creating things amps follow a reverse bell curve. The easiest thing to do is a spherical area about a foot in diameter where the temperature change is about 100 to 150 degrees plus or minus. Any larger or smaller, different shaped or hotter or colder is going to become harder.
So, if you want to kill a man, you don't need to completely incinerate him or heat blade slice his head off or anything like that. Just put a sphere of heat in his center of mass and heat it up by 100-200 degrees. It's quick and effective and won't tire you out too much, even if you use it several times."
Several generic VR men appear beside her.
"Try it."
Milno sighs mentally, his plans once again foiled by his lack of technical knowledge. "Well, how about the simple one but with the equivalent of a sliding control for the sensors' sensitivity? Also, is there a way that could help me avoid having troubles from decelerating too quickly? I was considering installing some flaps to open and help me stop, but that wouldn't help if I just blacked out or died."
Ask.
"Slider we can do. Flaps too, sure. We'll calibrate it to stop you as fast as is safely possible. Or should I say, decelerate, since it might not always stop you completely."
I have been reading this for a while and want in, should i finish the threads before making a character, or make one anyway and continue reading?
Really up to you. Coming in mostly blind will give you a more authentic "What the hell is going on" experience, while reading everything will let you know more about how everything works and reveal me for the lazy man I truly am.
