Through the portal you can see what looks to be a beach. However the bright blue sky above, seems to have clear broken lines making a dome of blue and white panels. The water also seems to brush up against a similarly fake horizon. Above the water a massive semi-transparent humpback whale floats idly as if swimming through the sky. To one side, seemingly in the middle of this strange scene, is a large metalic door, about two stories high.

Regaulius the techmarine.
Exoskeleton Engineer 1 [0/100]
Scrapyard [53/100]
- One Spacesteel Repair Hull [51]
As the time to activate your powers draw near, you notice that while more stable, it seems your powers are still limited to only a couple hours each day. The systems of the ship may have been refuled, but your strength comes from a missing divine. You wonder how many cycles will be able to survive without him.
At that moment, an alarm sounds in Regaulius' work area, and a thin white mist covers the techmarine, and everything in his possession. A computerized female voice announces that he will be put into hibernation due to 'Power Apathy Failure' Whatever that means.
A small portal opens up in one wall, and Regaulius slides through it, as another crafter replaces him on a black metal-stone slab.
Gather any nearby materials.

You exit the ship planning to gather something nearby. There's plenty of what seems to be artificial sand in the beach room, along with water. But there is something much more interesting floating up above. However, confronting the telepathic space whale head on, seems rather dangerous, as it was shown yesterday. You however, are determined, and quietly creep along towards the massive beast. Blending your plant-like body into the foliage growing in the room, you get very close. Right before the strike with your powers you feel your mind gripped in an iron fist. One tiny eye swivels to focus, and the whale song echoes in the room. Whatever this whale is, it is not something to be trifled with. Your plant-like body shakes with primal fear, and for a moment you begin to doubt that you will survive this encounter. The gaze then softens, and a small purple thing latches onto your shoulder. Looking next to you, a small purple whale sits next to you with a happy little smile like expression. You are not sure what just happened, but it seems to want to go with you, so you return to the ship with it.

Gather.

You also head out into the ship. Looking around you walk through the hallways filled with female crew members. The spaceship seems to be on high alert. Something about a 'black moon' having just destroyed a planet outside, hence the wreckage you were able to gather corpses from. However, other than that, this ship doesn't seem to have a morgue, and you can't find anything useful like a storage room. Eventually you decide to return to the Aglaia, and perhaps fiddle with some of the corpses you already have.

sell 1 steel mesh window screen [17]
Buy 1 pristine cherry red '79 corvette [100]
Disassemble pristine cherry red '79 corvette for useful parts
You return the screen to the group storage, and turn your sites to the corvette. There are many parts that are usable on a car like this, and with the quality of it, you decide that taking it apart should give you a good amount of usable materials.
92 (woot, crit, hope you like car parts)
You snap your fingers and your clothing turns into a typical mechanic's overalls, and a large power-fueled metal saw appears in your hands. With a wicked grin, you attack the red vehicle. Parts go flying everywhere. You skillfully and elegantly disassemble the car like a bad nightmare of Johhny 5. Your body seems to almost move on it's own. Smoothly and effortlessly you sort of fade from consciousness and when you return, every part of the car is laid out before you. Even more than you can carry, and several items spill over into group storage.

You are able to retain 8 items in your personal inventory, filling it. While the rest go into group storage, and you glow powerfully with the amount of energy it produces for you.

(This is rather extreme even for me, but I decided before this turn that anyone who takes the car apart would get an overflow like this, and you did roll a crit. Since the car got a perfect 100 for it's influence roll, all the influences of the parts can be almost as good. And I'm sure there are more parts I didn't list, not really a car expert, but figured this was plenty.)
Note: your inventory is full, you need to either craft or remove items into group storage to gain any new items.
Alrighty then, in case mcclay is out, I'd like to buy the crystal raindrops and form them into a ring.
Waking up from hibernation you groggily look around. It doesn't take you long to figure out what's going on, and you get right to work. Purchasing the crystal raindrops from group storage, you feel a bit of your powers wane, and you start work.

What seemed so simple before, is much more difficult than you thought. These raindrops are no ordinary crystal. Looking at them closely, each one swirls with a glow of internal power. Looking deep inside gives the impression of being swallowed up by a massive whirlpool. They almost seem fluid and move a bit in your hands as you hold them. The whole experience is fascinating. You end up spending your time for crafting today experimenting and enjoying the strange raindrops.

As the time for this world ends, the portal shimmers and shifts. And a new world is visible through the gateway.
11
Through the portal you see a room that at first glance seems like a typical school classroom. With one big difference. Every surface is covered with gore. More than just covered, every surface is made out of these things. Blood. Guts. Putrid yellow pus. Bulging stomachs and bladders. Various pumping organs. Occasional gouts of disturbingly vague fluid. The shape of the room is still there. Desks, chairs, chalkboard, door to the hallway, walls, floor, ceiling, but they are barely recognizable in the mess. The scene is disgusting, and a bright orange light appears above the portal, signifying that the ship is containing the stench.

Whew, what a turn. Not sure what mcclay was thinking, he posted yesterday in the Eagle's thread. But either way, we have to move on.
Enjoy the new world, heh.
