"Ow, fuck. Why do I feel like that was supposed to be just strong enough to hurt me without causing lasting damage? Fuck it, we'll get back to this later, you sadistic tube of death." Jason mutters, laying on the ground for a bit before slowly getting back up and checking for another challenge.

Talk to Shackle, get back up. Accept the hand up. Maybe go get some food. Meat 3, Side 3. Eat and relax a bit.

EDIT:Actually. Since Jim is loaning me tokens, I'm gonna go buy a Nyars Box: Green, Small, Hexagon, Horizontal Line. And open the box. What's in the box PW, what's in the BOOOX!?Better not be another box.

[Nikitian]

((Oh, and I think it was 'Enhanced Movements Mode' originally, wasn't it? Str/Dex assist via use of rocket pods. 'Exaggerated' one was about rapid movement of an exoskeleton.))
So it wasn't a prison ship originally? Interesting.

Are the plants specialised for the task? Can other kinds of plants be grown in their place?
Also, where else does the train go? It seems the ship is quite big, to put it lightly, just to house the mentioned places and their duplicates. I mean, this isn't the only hydroponics room on the Sword, is it?
Which brings another question - there are a few other former convicts' compounds, aren't there?
Also, could you tell us about this suit color differentiation of your suits. What does each color mean?
((Some of the colors might have been mentioned earlier, but this seems the best opportunity to get the full picture.))
Ask. Finish the tour by peeking at the Engines room, then go back. People might have unfinished business to settle before the next Jump and the missions that would immediately follow.
((As in, including dr. Sanctor himself. Though not much, so sacrificing this action for SCIENCE and other tourists' sake. ))

ADD:((Well, why not.))
By the way, Steve. It's been quite a while since the Defense of Hephaestus ended, but with the new missions coming... Did I actually get anything for getting shelled out of action before I could actually do anything useful back then? Humor me, if you don't mind.
Ask Steve.

Ulrich Leland. Location: Hangar

"HELP ME! SOMEBODY HELP ME! HE'S TRYING TO KILL ME!" Ulrich screams as well as he can with a broken jaw.

Scream and run to the Infirmary before someone else attempts to mutilate me any further...

Spoiler: Description (click to show/hide)

Name	Ulrich Leland
Age	28
Gender	Male
Appearance	Short dark brown hair. Brown eyes. Lightly tanned. 174 cm height, slender, built more for dexterity than raw strength. Missing two front teeth. A broken jaw. Right arm ripped off.
Personal information	Thief. That's what he is. Driven by his desire for wealth (of others), he started his trade early as a pickpocket. Soon he moved on to easy burglaries and eventually to high value heists. His demise was to join a group of thieves, successful but short-lived. In wake of their success the group became too proud and careless and started to make mistakes, such as failing to notice hidden security cameras. The last mistake was attempt to steal jewelry from a one of richest men in the city. Security had noticed their scouts eyeballing the mansion and prepared a trap to caught group in action. Normally such criminal activity would be punished by 15 years of forced labor, but the victim happened to have connections with judges and law-enforcement and arranged much worse punishment for the thieves: the HMRC.
Reason assigned to HMRC	Multiple robberies

Carried (Hammerspace) 5 tokens

Locker MK I

[Lenglon]

Sticking with Maurice
((but yes, I'm interested in the next mission, and still have shopping to do.))
third time's the charm:

oh, and Lyra never got the mission end tokens from mission 12. she didn't do a whole lot, but she was active for the ground action and attempted to engage and be helpful throughout. could she get the standard 5 tokens added to her current 3 for a total of 8?

Haven't pressed this since I've been on-ship, but if I'm going to try to join a mission I kinda need a reply, even if it's a 'no'

Hey guys, I'm back. Currently using a shitty internet service - university one. Well, at least it's not as bad of a situation as one in which Nikitian once was, heh.

Wake up, Mir
Mir suddenly found himself fallen out from a stasis pod. While trying to recall some information about what had happened, a certain image sprung up in his mind. An image of shuffling through entertainment VR programs. And after that? None, blank, nada.
^ohmygod S-steve, for how long was I in stasis? What's happening right now with the missions?

...

Walking through the ship Mir has noticed a man wearing a familiar type of clothing - a white protection jacket.
Hm, what is this?
As a man of science, Mir became interested in so-called "artifacts". After asking Nyars about the price, Mir bought small box with green hexagon crossed with a diagonal line on it - as it was the only size he could afford.
Buy the box for 3 tokens. If succesful, open it.

[SeriousConcentrate]

Jim held out one of his hands to help Jason back up, assuming he wanted the help.

[NAV]

"Sorry! Wrong movement mode. I just got this thing.
Infirmary's that way."

Dubley makes a note in his mk3's controls to distinguish between enhanced movement mode and exaggerated movement mode. Easy mistake to make. Good thing that didn't happen on mission.

Then he caries Ulrich's arm (and Ulrich if necessary) to the infirmary.

[Beirus]

"Thanks, Jim. The Shackle didn't seem to think telling you about the challenge was a good idea. Even though it didn't say I couldn't."

[SeriousConcentrate]

Jim pulled him up and shrugged. "It's alien technology; who knows how it works. I appreciate the thought at least, even though you got a shock out of it. You should have a seat, maybe some food, and make sure you're OK before you try any more of these challenges it has. It might give you a harder shock if you fail two in a row for all we know."

[renegadelobster]

((Spoilered because of length))

Thaddeus stares at Dern for a bit before turning his attention back to the Doktor. "Huh. That looks painful. Anyways, I was thinking of some mods to try and help myself be more useful during black-ops missions. The main thing is, that after all of these mods I would like to still look like a fairly normal human.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The most basic mod would probably just be enhanced healing, probably a step up from the gene mod thats on the Armory board, but not as intense as what Mesk has. Different biological vision modes would be useful, hell, just being able to see infrared would help. I was also thinking of turning my left arm into a type of gun, have a sort of collapsible tube with powerful muscles to propel the ammo I would use. Probably have to have my arm expand a bit when its in use. I also had an idea for two different types of ammo, just a bone shard of some sort, probably alot denser than normal, maybe with a poison or paralytic on it, the other would be some sort of small creature that I could give simple instructions to, and then fire it out, or set it down to cause havoc. Being able to see what they see would be useful for scouting also. Oh, and for up close and personal work, back on my home planet the used to talk about this guy that was from Old Earth, he had these knife-like bones that he could extend and retract out of the top part of his hands. Lets see what else... eh, maybe some sort of basic biological armor? That or redundant organs, oh, and while I'm thinking about organs, to produce the bone shards and/or the creatures, I was thinking replace most of my gut. I'm sure you could streamline most of my digestive organs anyways.

Thats about it, any thoughts, or ideas? I'd definitely be open to any of your suggestions on this. Oh, and before I forget, about what will that cost me?" 

[Icefire2314]

Glance at Ulrich running around screaming about people trying to kill him briefly before examining VR some more. "I suppose that's normal."

 Ulrich Leland cancels sanity: Insane

[Beirus]

"Yeah, thanks for the advice, Jim. Although I was hoping to build up some charges before the next mission. Never know if I'll run into another flesh horror like that horrible Xan--Stacy hybrid."

[SeriousConcentrate]

"Xan-Stacy hybrid? I'm guessing I missed a few things."

[Beirus]

"Yeah. Stacy blew out the ground we were standing on with his gun. Mesk saved me, then Stacy ended up broke and Xan decided he wanted to grow him a new body. It was bad. So many legs...and the singing! It was like fifty feet tall, and a gigantic leg. My Shackle blew off the lower half of it, and then it grew more legs! And wings! It was horrible." Jason shudders at the thought.

[SeriousConcentrate]

"...I see. Well, I hope Steve glassed the continent if not the planet."
