Does anyone have a link to the introduction of the glory that is Comrade Dimitri?
There wasn't really one. It was done via IRC, so the description is all there is to it. I like to think he literally just popped into existence the moment I flipped the switch on the Id Manifester, maybe with a muffled "for the motherland" in the background.

Ah.  That... is a problem.  But it looks like you still have arm bones.  Can you use what remains of your upper arm or shoulder muscles to force your head towards a wall?

Edit: I think you still have a leg!  Edit 2: no wait, you're lying on the floor.  Just use your neck muscles and smash your head on it.

Just checking, why is knocking oneself out a good idea in this situation?

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

Saint cut off all outside communication to contain the mind infection. Steve can't shock us right now, and if he still can, won't know to because communication is shut off, and i REEEALLLY don't want a mind roll, I think chansing a knockout is my best bet, but again, I don't know if we can self inflict the shock

Well, just a bit of correction: Steve always can shock you. Those channels are always open, just in case.
(Of course, if the communication is severed physically - e.g. you are in a different universe, dimension or something like that - then he cannot. But that's probably the only case.)

The capability to shock yourself is limited, it has to be specially enabled - I agree, it is kind of strange, so maybe we should look into that. That said, the mission commander generally holds the shock trigger of the team, so whoever is the nominal mission commander could issue a shocking order for other people (if internal communication is available).

Someone already broke out of it, it may be a mind thing. The things we view as real become real to us, if I'm unconsious, I'm not viewing anything. Hopefully someone can save my ass before I wake up. I may be interpreting the scenario wrong though, so it is still a risk. My mind is also low, so I don't want to risk a resist action

@ Nik:
No one told Steve that shit just got fucked before we shut off communication though, so Steve won't know to shock us

Now that the trial has started, I'd like to ask people if we could perhaps try and keep things as ic as possible for the duration of the proceedings. Both to avoid any ooc arguments, and to avoid influencing the participants in a way that'd make it harder for them to earnestly just respond as their character would. Not that comments are strictly verboten of course, but I think you can guess where I'm going at.

Ask the anomaly politely to stop. You've got good charisma.

That Id manifestation seems rather cool. Was part of its appearance randomized?

"Hey steve." You speak into the air.
>Yes?

>That is horrible and disgusting. It will no doubt set you apart and create fear in your team mates. So of course.

Apparently pw asks you 5 words which describe your character, then builds it based off of that.

So, Petra has 0 Mind. So I guess I just have to hope for a 5 or 6. Or that if she dies it's not a permadeath.

Correct. The words I used were Underwhelmed, Smug, Supreme, Wizard, Commissar. Then out popped Comrade Dimitri.
