That was me finishing it.

Err.. What? That isn't finished, so what do you mean?

[GentlemanRaptor]

And Nunzillor makes six! Alright, lemme find the Word doc where I typed the opening, and we'll start.

SOUTHERN WISCONSIN - 0800 ZULU

"Spyglass Actual, this is Spyglass 1-1. On approach to the crash site. ETA 30 mikes."

"Spyglass, Actual. We copy. Good luck out there. Actual out."

The droning thud of the Blackhawk's rotors almost drown out the radio, but you manage to catch the important part. Thirty minutes until you get to see the very first alien spacecraft to ever visit the Earth. It's pitch-black outside the helicopter, but there's not too much to see out there, anyway. The only option you have to pass the time is to talk with your squad. Matter of fact, it would be a good idea to get to know them, since you never saw them before the briefing a few hours ago.

You have thirty minutes to introduce yourselves and converse before the chopper lands.

"Allow me to introduce myself. Sir Ronald Bones, Heavy Weapons Savant, and Hunter Extraordinaire, at your service."

[BlitzDungeoneer]

"Robert Frankowski, Close Combat expert."

[Nunzillor]

Aklaq glanced at her companions apathetically.  They were of little importance to her since she wasn't allowed to kill them.  "I am Aklaq, if you must know.  I shoot things.  Then, if they are stubborn, my hands tear their miserable spirits from their bodies."

[kj1225]

"I am Sergeant McTavish."

[Remuthra]

That was me finishing it.

Err.. What? That isn't finished, so what do you mean?

Yes. Yes it is finished.

"Alright kids, you ready to see a live space monkey?"

[Again_Dejavu]

I'm Erik. I... blow things up.

[Remuthra]

"Name's Joe, kid. My job's to be smart about this sort of operation."

[Salsacookies]

"It is a pleasure to meet and to soon work with all of you, and may this day be especially grand for YOU, milady!"
Offer a hand to shake all of the men's hands, and a slight bow for the lady.

[Again_Dejavu]

((How many hands does he have? ))

[Salsacookies]

( Unfortunately, only 2 hands, 1 hand lended to the 4 of you for an equal shake )

[Nunzillor]

The thoroughly unpleasant woman replied to Sir Ronald Bones.  "Yes, yes, pleasure to meet you all, thank you Sir Bones, etc. etc., good luck not dying."

[GentlemanRaptor]

The helicopter's radio crackles.

"Alright, boys and girls, we're fifteen mikes out. Time for a weapons check!"

Each of you was issued a weapon back at base, and they were stowed on the Blackhawk prior to takeoff. You think it might be a good idea to check your other gear as well.
