Oh, don't worry, I'd get to RPing eventually. For now though I'm just tired and uninspired.

I'll send an elderly, aquatic, exoskeletoned creature with a greatbig long neck and cataracts to keep you company. What's that, spellecheck? Fuck you. Greatbig is so a word.

Well, let's say you're going away from Earth on huge spaceship and suddenly shit goes wrong and you have Super Mutants. Social Experiments prepared them for this.

Revoke the alarm already. Then check the stocks of lichen-like things.
(4+1) The alarm has been revoked, the doors have been opened, and lichen stocks are ample.

Do these things, while grumbling angrily about how I never go to blow things up or set them on fire or anything fun.[/i]
(2+1) Pre-flight checks are acceptable, but you ignore the flight plan, instead tossing it to your beaked companion to file, buzzing angrily and grumbling the while.
(1) Impatience, and a burning desire pull you onward, and you leap into one of the scouts and arm the lasers before you can be stopped. You target the bay doors, (5) which are opened before you can launch yourself at them. The scouter lunges out of the ship, and before you, reflected in the lights of the FireBug, are hundreds of gigantic rocks, floating far coser together than one would normally expect, occasionally colliding and spinning off in new, random directions. You fire your scouter's lasers wildly, thoug hyou see no effect on the rocks, or anything else.

Ugh. See what's on TV.
(1) you turn on the viewscreen, and with an audible Crack!, it goes dark.

Log on to a computer, and troll on the bay 12 forums.
(5) You happily spend some time in the interwaves, chumming the waters, as the saying goes.

Find corpse that looks unhappy. Take it out for a walk.
(4) You manage to open one of the Mausoleum's racks and find a chitinous exoskeleton that has a despondent look in it's multifaceted eyes. You are touched. And now, so is the corpse. You haul it out of it's container throw an arm or two around it's waist, and march it out into the streets.
(5) You are spotted pretty quickly, and an alarm at the morgue alerts the Mausoleum overseers, who come rushing out after you, squawking and flapping their sides at you.

Oh, don't worry, I'd get to RPing eventually. For now though I'm just tired and uninspired.
I'll send an elderly, aquatic, exoskeletoned creature with a greatbig long neck and cataracts to keep you company. What's that, spellecheck? Fuck you. Greatbig is so a word.
An elderly, aquatic, exoskeletoned, myopic creature with a greatbig long neck and cataracts hobbles sedately into your atrium. It blinks slowly at you, and extends its beaked head toward your lower branches to nibble on some leaves.

Break free.
(2 vs. 1) You attempt to shlorp away from the ominous fellow, but fail to make any headway, still feeling the effects of all that garbage you just ate. Fortunately, the fellow slips on something and goes down in the garbage! Advantage - Slime!

Initiate a new project, the "Alternative Food Initiative", which would involve manipulating the lichen-like Formers for greater suitability as nutritional organisms. This would involve protein enrichment, increases in size and other manipulations. They would need to be grown in a humid, nutritious atmosphere, but their lack of dependence on soil would solve certain problems with the current soil-based and hydroponic growth measures.

Bring corpse to food court.
Buy it lunch.
Chat about politics.


You know, its kind of weird that we haven't seemed to encounter any others of the Player races. You would think that they would be more common (granted mine are probably all in jail or shot by annoyed neighbors, but still)

They are there, in the background, somewhere. Perhaps if 2 Delta 3 hadn't been so involved in his dog fight in the park, he might have seen some creature shoveling up one of the Former humidifier beings, for instance. Besides, it's been less than a day. Oh, and you have encountered members of your own race several times, in your habitat and at work. If you'd have rolled a four or three on that last turn, the corpse you would be walking right now would have been one of your own race.

Shitdamnitcrapmonkeys. Okay, I will be spending some time fleshing this place out a little, and providing a little more opportunity for interaction. this might delay the next round a bit. Feel free to throw in suggestions, particularly in regards to your own races. Until next round is up, we can do this in thread. After that, preferably through pm.

((I'm pretty sure its easy to RP my race. Just think of the absolute most socially inappropriate action you could possibly take, and then do it. Also make sure my race treats these behaviors as perfectly normal. That's kind of their charm, they are completely confused by all the taboos of other races, because they don't really have any themselves. Well other then things like murder, but basically if its not a horribly serious and dangerous crime then they see it as no different then playing catch.))
