Might post a turn soon. But first I must re-watch THIS:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LpjxWF7C6EThis too:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRRJ6mMsVBcTURN 11:
Frelock: Proceed to testing area.
Dragnar: Then head for the testing room.
qwertyuiopas: create a script that can alter the overall colour of an object(or color if the system uses that spelling), as a simple test. If possible, include alpha in colour.
tehstefan: Heeeyyy, ask what the implants do, if the tire thing is still around.
sensei(semi-gm'd, no action): Follow the leader!
R Lee ExKirby: Just find whoever has the highest authority beside me here.
inteuniso(GM'd): Try to framiliarize myself with my surroundings while following the TIRE to the testing area.
3
You follow the TIRE around a urban-looking enviroment, and then to a 10 by 10 by 10 meter cubicle. The TIRE indicates that you should enter...
Dragnar: 4
You follow everyone to the testing room and enter the cubicle...
qwertyuiopas: 5
You recreate the color tool, and decide to include material application as well. (fire at any object to set any color with alpha and/or material) Awesome.
tehstefan: 4
You ask the TIRE about implants, he tells you about them on the way to the testing area. (covered below)
ExKirby: 6
You look around. You don't need any damn technological BS to do recon, you got all you need at boot camp! Looking around, you notice a large, rectangular humanoid robot with the TOAST Industries logo on it's chest watching you from afar. It notices that you have noticed it. It appears to be very heavily armed, where it's arms would be are a series of discs with various implements on them, but none of the pointy things seem to be pointed at you...
inteuniso: 6 (I'll let you choose implants retroactively)
On the way to the testing area, you look around at the buildings. You notice that if you look at a plate above the enterances to these buildings, the name of the building appears on your HUD. You see the following buildings on the way:
Welcome Center (the building you just left)
Storage
High Sec. Storage (with a large locked metal door)
Automaton Storage
Bank
Information
Dormitory/Labs
Automaton testing
and finally, Applicant Testing, which is the building the TIRE instructs you to enter. You also notice some of the public utilities which you ask the TIRE about.

(technically, modules... I don't quite know if I should have them be different, but I'll just assume you have the nearest equivalent available)
NPCs:
Unidentified TOAST robot:
He walks twoards ExKirby. All his arm-discs are aimed at the ground.
His status is unknown.
On the way to the test facility, Inteuniso notices some recurring objects, a red-colored booth similar to the implant boothes and a flat, transparent black plates, and asks the TIRE about them. "The red booth is a TOAST Industries Medical Booth. Enter it when you're hurt, and it'll heal any injuries within minutes. The black plates are stops for the... erm... TOAST Industries Transport System. Before TOAST it was called the ScHil Internal Transport System."
Tehstefan asks about implants. "The TOAST Industries implant technology was extremely important for TOAST in it's early days. The most important effect of it was it's usefullness for VSP... Anyway, the implants you were offered... The flight implant is a simple device, one of the first designs. It uses a forcer to propel it's user straight upwards. Automedical is based on some of the same technology used in the medical booths, it heals it's user slowly. The remote camera is another of the earlier ones, the version available to you a simple 0.5 16 resolution rangercam, which can be used for very rudimentary remote viewing. The sensor implant prints properties of an object you are looking at onto your HUD screen. The aim implant helps one aim with weapons and such things. The telekenisis implant lets one apply small amounts of force to objects without contacting them. The 0-level unit can only impart enough force to toss around a soda can though. The hidden entity detector is based off of the old TOAST Industries Hidden Entity Scanner, which finds various things that aren't plainly visible to the eye, or have properties that aren't apparent. There's a whole lot more of them, but your clearance level is pretty low. You'll probably get a higher level after going through the applicant testing course."
You arrive at a cubular building. "Here we are... step inside..."
As the last participant enters, the door shuts behind you. There's no way to open it from the inside. A voice eminates from a speaker on the ceiling, a human voice. "Hello test subjects! I am Schil, the founder of TOAST. This course will test your apitude to become a member of the TOAST workforce. You are invited to use any method you want to solve the problems presented to you, and innovative solutions get extra points. The computer will instruct you from this point on, press the button behind you to begin the testing. Good luck..."
After pressing the button, you all find yourselves in a concrete room. In front of you, there is a tall, steep cliff of concrete, above which you can see a corridor that leads to a dead end. At each end of the room, light eminates from no apparent place near the end wall, the light coming from behind you is green, the light at the end of the corridor is red.
The voice that greeted you when you entered this world speaks. "Please make your way to the opposite side of the room. Construction materials and a TOAST Industries Construction Computer are to your left."
