But isn't the whole point of [<something or other in all-caps> INTENSIFIES] that the avatar image vibrates?

[smurfingtonthethird]

Probably. All I know is that it's one creepy ass bear.

[Empiricist]

What country is the spinoff set in?

[smurfingtonthethird]

None, it's on a random chain of islands in the Pacific, far away from anything that could result in collateral damage.

[Empiricist]

Oh so it's somewhere between a luxury resort, a private boarding school, a nuclear test site and a closed circle?

...

Who would be interested in a Infinite Stratos RP game?

So are the students volunteers, are forcibly taken there? Which organization/government is running it?

[smurfingtonthethird]

10%/90% volunteer/forced; private organisation.

[wolfchild]

So I am assuming something is stopping the forced ones from banding together to blast their way out?

[smurfingtonthethird]

Isolation, guards, and the fact that most of them have nowhere else to go make up for that.

It's called themselves

In between Stabby McStabson, Collateral Damage Incarnate, Mister Furniture Spiker and Magical Ponzi Scheme, I don't think any of the PCs would have much of a chance of escaping.

I would imagine they'd have rather good facilities and treatment, effectively promoting Stockholm Syndrome and whatnot. Presumably they targeted and abducted people who didn't have much of a future, those who wouldn't be missed, those with little connections. Then, plonk them down in the middle of a state of the art facility in some nice island somewhere, give them what they didn't have. Give them a future. Give them what they craved. Then, the prisoner to volunteer ration will begin to fall.

Yeah, especially with Hilda's ungodly 156 max damage cannon.

Thank god she can't summon things, or I imagine she could easily summon another archon for a dozen turns, if she got good rolls.

Well, she can separate parts of her body to attack multiple enemies simultaneously, but that would divide her stat pool. I dunno, I haven't really thought of it nor used it before.

How good are the facilities, treatment of students and whatnot?

[smurfingtonthethird]

How good are the facilities, treatment of students and whatnot?

Very high quality, plenty of luxury, and the rules are fairly lax... for those that behave.

Right, so basically, the usual Art of War 'treat prisoners well so that they help you' business?
