High-Five tiberyix, grab some unobtanium, time-travel to a time-bank, and sell this stuff!
Time-travel to the time!bank. Deposit the Unobtanium and check the security systems while doing so.
(3) John grabs some Unobtanium. (2+2(dual effort)) You both go to the time bank in the time con, about 15 minutes after you left. You go up to the counter to deposit the Unobtanium (1) (3) which is apparently marked with some government seal, because the cashier pushes an alarm button. The security guards get out their stun guns.
John gained Some Unobtanium (stolen)!

Use My FALCON ARMSTRENGTH to pull myself up and type into the machine and type Teasure and then type Spray Nozzle.
You pull yourself up and go to the vending machine. (2) You trip and hit the keyboard on your way down. (1) You accidentally type KILL with your face. The machine gurgles for a second and dings. You see smoke coming from the slot. You might want to run.

Get a feeling that I need an AWESOME AI. That I must name either GLaDOS or Wheatly.
(5) Not only do you get a feeling, you act on it! You go to the nearest AI store (there's one without shrapnel imbedded in the walls) and buy their top-of-the-line model. (power=1+2(budget? What's a budget?)) It's about as fast as a normal computer. (size:2) It's the same size as a PDA. (usefulness:6+2) It has no chance of crashing, and will actually increase the usefulness of nearby electronics. Through machine-magic. (+1 to using electronics!) (efficiency:1+2) It has a battery life of 24 hours. (intelligence:3+2) It is very intelligent, but not so much that it will resist your commands. You decide to name it GlaDOS. And with that, there is now a much higher chance that portals, heelsprings, crowbars, or cake will appear at some point.
Adrian gained mini-GlaDOS!

Go look for some programs for the laptop. Name AI Rob.
You tell your computerized friend that he is now Rob. He is happy. (4) You find the AI store that Talarion is in and look for programs. (4) Rob has done some research, and he picks a few out. He wants a memory upgrade and a research program, and he wants your permission to download something called "DF3D". (1) The store has the memory upgrade! For free! In the trash behind it! You plug it into Rob and hear maniacal laughter from his speakers! "3y3 4m 73h dr34d3d 14p70p 5y573m-d0m1n47><0r! Ph34r my 1337 ski11z!!!11one!" You have no idea how he can pronounce 1337-5p34k. (Rob will now make a contested roll with the LSD each turn. Whoever wins will control the laptop the next turn. LSD has same efficiency and size, but has usefulness 2, power 5, and intelligence 6).

Quote from: Bank Guards
Get the thieves!
The guards fire their tasers!  (6) The first guard shoots his taser at John! And Edward! And also accidentally his buddy! (dodge: 4, 2, 6-2) The other guard and John dodge, but Edward isn't so lucky. He gets hit in the (BP:4) right leg, (damage:3) but isn't hurt. Guard 2 shoots! (5) He aims accurately at John! (dodge:5-2) John gets hit, (damage:4) and I slightly shocked! -1 to next roll!

Also ask my mini-GLaDOS if it can beat the LSD virus. If the answer is yes, ask it to.

Throw the Unobtainium at the guards!
Fire the Mutant gun at the bank guards!
You get into action! Edward chucks the Unobtanium at Generic Guard 1! (3) (dodge:1) It hits him square on the (BP:3) left leg! (damage:5) Ooooh... Ouch... Guard 1's leg is broken! (3) He is nearly unconscious! -1 to non-luck rolls! Meanwhile, John shoots the mutation ray at Guard 2! (1) The ray flies past the guard and hits a... Chandelier... Rays bounce everywhere! Dodge Rolls The guards get hit! (2) Guard 1 starts to mutate! This mutation doesn't look fun... Guard 2 has tentacles for arms (-1 on weapon rolls) and looks weaker (+1 on damage rolls). (1) Guard 2 is even worse off... He now has gills instead of lungs! He needs to roll vs suffocation! On a 2 or 3 he passes out (-1 to rolls) and on a 1 he dies!

Ask Talarion to get his AI to beat the virus.
Also ask my mini-GLaDOS if it can beat the LSD virus. If the answer is yes, ask it to.
Mini-GlaDOS Agrees to help Rob destroy the LSD! (4) (6) Rob and MG attack the LSD with all of their skill! (Resist:6) The LSD strikes back! (6) (5)  Both survive, and Rob countercounterstrikes! (6) (1) The LSD has been obliterated! But the memory unit that contained it explodes! (dodge: {autofail} {autofail} 6 2) Rob, of course, contains the memory unit! (damage:4) Some RAM is destroyed! -1 to all of Rob's rolls! Taric jumps out of the way of the blast, so well that he (1) falls over a railing! (ninjaness:1) SPLAT! (damage:1) Miraculously, he lands unharmed on his feet, and goes back up to the floor from which he fell. Adrian also dodges, pulling MG out of the way.

TIME BANSHO FAN TO WHEN THIS WAS WORKING GOGOGOGOGOGOGO
You quickly pull out your fan and instruct it to go to when the machine was still working! (5) The fan starts to hum, and you are taken through the time stream! You are in a break room. There are lab coats hanging on hooks. (6) You sense that you are not in the con anymore, and are in fact in the year 2015. You see the label SPC on some of the lab coats, and Site-19 is painted on the walls. The coffee machine is in front of you with a label reading 294 on its side, and several warnings, including one about needing "level 2 clearance" and a brief description of what you already suspected it did (gave a cup of whatever is typed into the keyboard). (3) You think you hear footsteps in the hall outside.

See if I can find some upgrades for my GlaDOS, such as making it faster, or more efficient.

I'm never good at looking really close at things. Probably because I try and look closer than I need to...

Well, I'm going to post my character for when choobakka allows me to join.  If no one else has tried, I will be the first person to attempt a different race than a human!  :D  Constructive criticisim is welcome!

Name:
Xun Qiu, meaning "Fast Autumn", for the season he was born on.
Description: Most people would describe him as a humanoid fox, but he refers himself as a Kitsune, one of the very few of his kind, actually. He wears a white T-Shirt, black pants with a small hole for his tail and special-made black shoes for his feet. He is 17 years old and has cyan eyes and a regular red fox color on his fur.
Mode of time travel: A special gun with a black screen that displays Time/Date/Location in different colors for each, and a small cell-phone arranged set of numbers for each of those three specifications. The gun looks exactly like the Handheld Portal Device, but only the portals are to a different time, not a different location.
Profession: Xun came to the convention completely by mistake, but decided to use it for fun and tourism.
History: Once while travelling around a forest in China in the year 2015, Xun found an entrance to an abandoned underground laboratory. In the remains of the facility, he found a strange-looking device, with a clock/date/location display on the top.  He accidentily set it to before the universe was made, and transported himself to the convention. He learned more about the device and the convention itself, and decided to explore the place.
