"... he's one bad mother-
Shut your mouth!
What? I was only talkin' bout St. Badger!
Oh, we can dig it!"
Get the survivors to the Sword. Poke Mesk at the ones who need immediate treatment before getting moved until they get better. Or not, if he's not responsive - after all, we can revive people, can't we?
"Fear not, survivors, for the Honeyed Badger has saved the day, along with his brave sidekicks! Follow us, and you will be delivered in the safe hands of the ancient masters of the sacred art of triage!"
Judging by their faces, you're not helping. Really, talking nonsense at a bunch of traumatized survivors probably ain't the best way to get them to cooperate.
((Seeing as Charles is a Speech-Charisma character, I'll have him stay in the Sword and possibly try and demoralize them by radio or something.))
((Could you please repost this in the combat thread? That'll make it easier later on when we need to organize everybody.
Also, you sure you want to stay on the Sword? Cause I could always put you on a defense team with another player character so you wouldn't be alone, so to speak; Not saying you have to, just pointing out the option.))
((Maybe, I'll consider it, but seeing as Charles' rifle fires ClF3 and he is entirely able to roll a one unless he uses a dynamic bonus, limiting him to attack every two turns, his partner would probably have to be competent enough to do it alone anyway.))
Charles clears his throat "Ladies and Gentlemen, if I may have the honor of speaking to you all today in such dire circumstances..."
Charles speech rolls them in an attempt to proselytize them to the ARM and make them hostile to the UWM.
[speech:6+1+1-1]
"Ok people, here's how it goes. We are a group of formal criminals turn rebellious organization. Among our members are murders, arsonists, mad bombers, mutants, psychopaths, tiger fuckers and Jay walkers. We are lead by a computer whose great size and level of galactic observation makes him as close to omnipresent as anything humanity can come across outside of scripture. Our goal is to overthrow the entire UWM and to recreate the government as a freer, better society. Possibly run by Murderers, arsonists, mad bombers , etc.
Now you have two options. You can come with us, be rescued and live out a nice, mostly peaceful life here or on any other planet, if you want to tag along with us until we get where you want to go. OR, I can have the guy who just punched a 3 foot thick slab of concrete in half shoot you in the stomach and then pump you full of memory erasing drugs so that you forget being afraid of us, and possibly your childhood. Your choice. Now, Show of hands for the gut shots and Amnesia?"
No one raises their hands.
"Peachy! Now if you would, please answer any questions my colleges have and then we will start our little march back to the infirmary where we'll get you checked out and then you'll be free to go."
""can a mark suit make out here yet..... .... cause I can't ..... take much more
RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN (well roll) towards the end room pop hatch then pass out or something
[5]
By some miracle you manage to stumble out the door and close it behind you before passing out.
You wake up in the infirmary with the doctor looking down on you.
"Have to replace...Mostly everything. Your body is too hot for the nurses to work on. You're giving people radiation burns just by touching you."
And then darkness.
Lars bows to the assembled civilians. "Hear ye the words of Charles, who speaks for the ARM!"
Support the efforts of the diplomat.
"I feel as though my support may have been misplaced." You muse to yourself as the survivors shakily form a single file line.
"Ah... Damn it."
Go to the stash. Get a drink. Moderate self.
You drink several big gulps of booze.
"You're banned for vulgarity and spamming." you mutter to yourself.
buy kinetic amp and gauss rifle
Just gonna check but you know the kinetic amps aren't the "put in your brain" amps right?
"Ah... Damn it."
Go to the stash. Get a drink. Moderate self.
May walks to the bar(?).
"Oh hi Thomas!"
Be moral-support girlfriend to the toughened fighter-soldier guy, just like in the movies.
You head over to where thomas is quietly berating himself for using leet speak and give him a hug. You tell him he's not a complete failure.
Steve Saint follows Marcius to the Armory, and smiles upon spotting Steve. He offers to shake Steve's good hand
"Hello there, mind if I ask who you are? I'm Steve."
Steve Saint then buys a Sub-Exoskeleton Model C "Confidence", for two tokens. Saint also wants to know if the GM is willing to let him hold a conversation with Steve.
I don't think those ever made it into the armory; you'd have to wait for the AM to get back for custom stuff.
>Likewise. Yeah, you can talk to him. Anyone can talk to steve any time!
((Can we make more tokens somehow?))
Buy a Mark 2 from the armory via Steve. Ask either Steve or Simus for a weapon (or tokens to buy a weapon.)
Steve gives you a MK II
>According to my records you're pretty much crap with all forms of weapon. So here, have a cutting torch. It can be used as a weapon in a pinch and it's more your speed. He gives you a cutting torch.
"Well, just talk to them and I'll check who's seen too much after that. After my entrance, I think they'll prefer to hide rather than listen." Milno says to the rest of the group, stepping to the side and letting them do their thing before checking for any witnesses. He takes a moment to dust off and send Steve a short message with a question:
Is the Armory Master ok?
Ask Steve.
>She's fine. Just resting. Even she has her limits, and it's easier to rest when she's not trying to maintain her appearance.
