Man, you don't know how long formatting all that took.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Since Zrk hasn't posted I'll leave him out for now. 6 people was the intended limit. If he returns then he is welcome to play.
"Ugg, neanderthals" I sigh under my breath. "If you make a clearing here, they'll know exactly where we are and that we are coming for them with absolutely no technical or strategic benefits." I explain to the explosion fanatic. With this, hopefully, explained, I pin my hair up, put on the helmet to my Hostile Environment Suit and head towards the South. Flowing water has consistently been the source of many early settlements, why should here be any different. Be sure to move silently.
Sing Weird AL's NewestOldest hit,: 'Amish Paridise' to lift the team's moral.
"Tarran, don't go to that Island!"
Head into the forest and move up and into the tree-branches and begin my search through the suppirior vantage point/hideing capabilities
"oh alright, I won't make a clearing here" Follow Theta
Walk towards the floating island cautiously.
If you do not mind, i think i will do aerial reconnasance
Mount up on Salth (my dragon), and preform aerial reconnosance, specifically focus on remembering any landmarks i cna use to go between

As the group of 5 touches down, the alien warrior Kir'Zhan descending first, followed by the others, with Gordon reluctantly jumping out last, readying his shotgun.
"I never got around to trusting those fancy machines"Well, tough luck. It's our only way down to the surface. Unless you want to sit in your quarters all day while we do all the work. Replies Taric, without the slightest respect for his teammate. Pulling out a pack of C5, he proclaims,
"I'll make a clearing so we can get a better view"Sareesa does not look amused.
"Ugg, neanderthals," she sighs.
"If you make a clearing here, they'll know exactly where we are and that we are coming for them with absolutely no technical or strategic benefits."After explaining, she pins her hair up, and examines the area.
"We should go to the river. Flowing water has consistently been the source of many early settlements, why should this be any different?"Gordon, giving the go-ahead, nods and says,
"Yes ma'am."An almost robotic, yet still identifiably female voice interrupts the group.
"Let me introduce myself, if you will. I am Thea. I was sent to assist you on your mission. I've been to this planet many times before, so I believe I will be of use to the group."He turns around, and sighs.
"Don't let it--her near me."As the group progresses, the faint whine of a
Bumblebee Combat Shuttle, the primary vessel used as escape pods for the Terran Navy, echoes over the jungle. In a blaze of light, it touches down, taking the lives of countless trees with it.
The sole occupant, Sergeant Tarran of the Terran Navy, steps out of the ruined shuttle, brushes the soot off of the name
Iced Fire, and stands pondering what to do.
Sareesa-3-Now that everyone knows where to go, Sareesa silently sets out into the jungle. Watching Kir'Zhan climb up a tree, she almost bumps into one herself.
Gordon-2-Gordon, now in need of inspiration, decides to sing a tune he remembers back from a
long time ago.
"As I walk through the valley--"Thea interrupts his singing with a slap to the face.
"Don't. Even. Think. About it."Kir'Zhan-4-To gain a strategic advantage, Kir'Zhan climbs up a tree using his natural spikes to hook onto branches. Even though the tree is quite tall, he is used to climbing of this sort and makes it to the top faster than any
human could ever hope to. Looking around, you spot the island, as well as the river. No sign of sentient life in sight, but he does notice the leaves of the endless canopy are quite stable. Walking on the leaves can have it's advantages over the uneven and rocky ground.
Taric-5-Reluctantly, Taric puts away his C5 and follows the rest of the group.
Tarran-4-You notice a large floating island in the distance. Curious, you begin walking towards it, before a
dragon flies overhead. those even exist?
Rayn-5-Climbing up onto Saith, you jet into the sky on a plume of dust, and notice three main things: a tree laid out horizontally across the river, a large swath of knocked-down trees, and a faint glow coming out of the darkness below the island.
Vorthon:
You can be in the waiting list.
Or Zrk can be removed if he doesn't post soon.
