The artwork relates to the encasing of the HMRC in metal by Pancaek during the Mission of Many People.))

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

heyyy it worked, put the man into a madness lasting several days..made him tough too, he took several rocks to the head and kept going..
Sure. He didn't die though. He recovered.

Stand in an inconspicuous location and begin to fiddle a gentle tune. Not really much else worth doing right now, it seems.
Someone else comes by with a flute. A large being looking like a misshapen preying mantis settles nearby and begins singing quite well. you are unfamiliar with the language, but it blends with the Fiddle and Flute quite nicely. You collect a small crowd of onlookers, who begin to dance to the tune. Apparently Omega likes live music. A dwarf begins beating a troll's back as a makeshift drum. it works pretty well.

"Dar'yajira understands.  This one supposes bird is not for food then, yes?"

Dar'yajira sighs, casting a final glance across the desert outside.  He then goes back into the canyon, hunting down a snack.  After eating, he'll hunt down the blue munchkin and observe it.
At first, you have no idea where to look for the big guy, but the swolution presents itself - you follow the music and there he is, with a rather unusual band around him, and a small party springing up.

((At some point I said that my char is going to sleep and left it at that, back when it was just me and Ozarck in here. But I would still like to go on a mission.))

Mordred wakes up in his room. He dropped right into the bed when he waddled in, tipsy and bruised. How much time has passed since then? No idea.

He had a dream. He had only one or two since they purged him, or at least one or two he could still recover from the consecutive blur of his morning sicknesses, bleak days and intoxicated evenings. A nightmare and another, omenous one.
This one was different. This was a happy dream. Sort of dream that sticks with you and lets you go through another day or two before it fades and becomes a bleak memory, not nearly as vivid and warming as it was.

Stroll out of my room, go find some water. Then get to the cafeteria and ask around when the meal is served, then inquire what's up in here lately: new faces, accidents, chit-chat of that sort.
You hear about a recently returned group of newbies. You also hear about the sexual exploits of a frost giantess in painful detail. there's talk of a new round of assignments, which seems good, since there's a lot of people going a little stir crazy around here, you know? You hear that some idiot recently got into the ogre den for some reason, and got himself killed, and there is talk of a werewolf in the Legion, but that seems unlikely.

((Well, it's there if I need it or not.

I'm normally adverse to including demons or demon spawn, but I added you. This will be interesting ...

Seek out something more stimulating to observe.
You wander the floor of the canyon. You find an anthill, going about it's usual business. that seems more interesting than those godawful officers, anyway.

So I did sleep way too long.

If there is a specific place for that, head over to where the assignments are given out. If not, hang out here until the meal - pretty hungry right now.

((Sorry, but I am confused about the ER character calculator; It has different skills and stats. Also, do the skills being dependent on stats and other skills have a specific way of working?))
EDIT: Might as well try. I will adjust accordingly if this doesn't work.  ::)

Name of Character: Gavriel
Race: Construct (Human-Sized Golem)

Stats:
Strength: +1
Constitution: +2
Speed: -1
Dexterity: -2
Intelligence: 0
Memory: 0
Will: +1
Charisma: -2

Skills:
Unarmed combat: +1
Blunt weapons: 0
Sharp weapons: -1
Ranged weapons: -1
Magic: +1
Medicine: -1
General knowledge: 0
Skill Mastery/specialization: 0

Description: A human sized golem. He is very strong and durable, due to being made out of pure iron. However, this also makes him slow and with less dexterity. Due to not actually being a biological being, he is not trusted by many. He goes by male pronouns.
How did you become part of the Omega Legion?
Was created PURELY to become a member.
Background: Was created by an expert spellcaster. The spellcaster had created him to contribute to the Omega Legion, but not get himself killed. He was trained in magic before the spellcaster was killed while attempting a powerful incantation. In compliance with his will, he was sent off the the Omega Legion.

welcome to bay twelve, and to Omega Legion. the ER character calculator is to give you an idea of how many negatives you need for how many positives you get. So, go there, input into random stats the number of positives you want, and see how much you need to deduct. You are a newbie, it seems, so I will give you a couple pointers, and the other players will probably as well.

First. -2 in any stat is very dangerous. it makes you a walking time bomb. frankly, I am surprised any of my -2 gang has survived their first mission. Second, the best start is really one with only one or two positives in stats and one or two in skills. this is because with more negatives, you need more points to balance out.

On to your particular character build:
you have +4 in stats, but -5. you need -7 for that many positives. I'd suggest instead knocking it down to +3, -4 (for example, bump dex and cha to -1, and drop one of your +1s to a 0 [syvarris will explain why not to drop your +2 to a +1]). But that is up to you.
For your skills, you have the opposite problem: one too three many negatives. If you had a single +2, you would need -3. but, for whatever reason, two +1s cost only -2.

I hope this explanation has been incredibly complex and difficult to follow.
Let's see, you will be the fourth construct, and second specifically designed for Omega. I'm going to make a club.

You hear about a recently returned group of newbies. You also hear about the sexual exploits of a frost giantess in painful detail. there's talk of a new round of assignments, which seems good, since there's a lot of people going a little stir crazy around here, you know?

So I did sleep way too long.

They'll call you in. For now, nom nom nom.

Well, this seems like a satisfactory turn of events. Keep at it until further notice.
alright. Party started. Someone fetch the ... oh there's the beer.

Arrive at Omega.
How much freedom do these people give a demon?

Not much at all. You are cordially escorted into a small building. the room you are deposited in is comfortably, if sparingly, decorated. you are asked politely to wait [one turn] for someone to see you. You share the room currently with another - a giant toad, colored violently yellow, with the purplest stripes ever. "Name's Trusty Mike. Nice-ta meetcha." he croaks. huh. maybe it isn't the race they are cautious of.

Play with the ants for a while.

Try ensorceling them with minor buffs to speed and strength.
