This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Spike's Traveller- Frozen Elegy [OOC]

You guys can describe yourselves to one another, I'm going to put some details in here to help things along.

Headless-  Came out of an oversized Pod meant for an eight foot tall Aslan (and looking very like Aslan technology), and was more or less standing on a spacer-trunk inside the pod. He is dressed in fine robes with clear Aslan influence, with a hook bladed knife strapped to his wrist on a fancy bracer and a large signet ring on his finger.

Opoapajr- Came out of a pod almost equally large, though looking like human designed military tech, though in very battered and terrible shape, making it almost impossible to tell where it came from. He appears almost to be a creature from storybook legends, a Khanate Supersoldier from ancient past, complete with crude but effective looking combat armor. A strange scar circles his neck above the collar of his armor.  

Ffliz- Came out of a normal human sized pod, clearly military tech, though unfamiliar to anyone else present. He is wearing form fitting combat armor with uniform insignia.  He otherwise appears to be a normal human.

Ras Algethi- Came out of a pod of strange design, almost as if it were grown around him. He is human, skinny and shave headed, wearing a form fitting jumpsuit of silver. There are ugly scars on his scalp and neck, and a shiny new plug of metal and ceramic on the back of his neck. He looks distinctly lost and uncomfortable even compared to the rest of you.


The four pods appear to be arranged in the center of a small chamber, crudely wired into the ship's systems almost as an afterthought.   You are unmistakeably on a starship, and can see clear signs that this is some sort of repurposed storage room, possible once holding ammunition of some sort.


Opoapajr- This couldn't possibly be a star ship, or else its on a planet, because you are clearly experiencing Gravity.

Ffilz, Ras Algethi- the construction of this ship seems clearly crude and primitive, with steel bracing on the bulkheads and so forth.  Flilz, you might think 'fringer', while Ras would be more 'Outsider', but the idea is the same... not made by Your People.

Gravity is light, .2g,  probably due to a lack of power.   There is a hatchway on one wall that is currently closed.


Edit:  I forgot to add. Whatever shape you were in when you went into cold sleep you feel great now... except for a blinding headache.

Moved to IC.

Minor note. Monkey knives are attached to the bracer to force you to use it like a claw... Unless you have altered it of course!

Mine comes off and has a handle if needed.

Spike

No problem. Also you are addressing 'The big one'... Unless I've gotten confused!

How do you want us to keep character sheets?

Headless

Oh! I see.  I got confused.  Is wearing the power armor?  Please describe it.  I am concerned about getting my hand crushed.

Spike

I've got character sheets for each of you, but I'm going to have to redo them for the proper edition.. there were more changes between 1 and 2 in skills than I thought, and the 2nd sheets are very, very grey so hard to read and probably will scan like shit for google-docs uploads.

Fimion, the big one, is wearing combat armor, just much cruder and bulkier than the combat armor that Corporal Ramierez is wearing... not powered.  On the other hand he could look an Aslan in the eye... seven and a half feet tall.   His combat armor looks to be mostly metal and ballistic plastic sheets layered and riveted to a sturdy leather jumpsuit. It looks uncomfortable and heavy, but doesn't seem to bother him.



As for fixing stuff, you are all in an empty room except for your now empty stasis coffins.  I'm willing to speed up stuff due to format, but there isn't anything to look at in here except each other (also... I can stall some so everyone has a chance for input...)

What time zone is everyone in?  Just so I know when to expect updates.  I'm in Atlantic.

Pacific for me

Spike

Mountain zone, about half an hour from Central, but I work nights, so I'm backwards.

Ras- You are clearly in some form of Avatar Server, though from your experience as a Merchant you had come to believe the various Avatar-servers were far more closely linked than anyone suspected. That was one of the forbidden thoughts that eventually led you to Annunaki.  Everyone present is in some form of Flesh-form avatar, but not surprisingly you aren't picking up any Data-signatures from them. Of course, they act a bit like Outsiders, so you don't expect much.
