    Dang...doubt a dragon is going to fit. Poor Taliza. She doesn't quite fit in anywhere.

    Got a post up. Thought I'd get Padoc introduced before the plot moves any further. Hopefully I'm not jumping into anyone's plans, but if I am, I'll just go ahead and edit my post.

    Taliza could actually be of use, the Energi around the ship is essentially the Hive's extended body so she could probably keep it occupied for a time. And ok, I'll get a post up sometime today.

    Actually, this will be a good oppurtinity to make the Troll less dangerous. To fit in the shuttle, Tubluk will have to take off most of his armor. Hehehehe, now you guys have to hand around with a Troll dressed in only a loincloth. Smell city.

    Sorry that took me a bit. Fantastic posting everyone, particularly the newcomers, great job!

    I'm waiting for Magnalian to post or to hear back from Epic about some ideas I had before I post in the Hive-mind assassination team.

    Well I'll post today, I was a bit dry on ideas yesterday. So has Padoc possessed an energy ghoul body? or something. I take it as a yes, I pmed you, since I need to work with you on my Tom Wilde post.

    Ok, I had planned on Wilde intervening but it's not shifting my post too much.

    I've only just caught up on my reading, and I have to say, your first post was a really enjoyable read. Nice job!

    @Losthawken: Now that is a very legitimate excuse! Your kids (siblings?) look ecstatic about their new family member.

    So to get this straight, Epicfailpig has to post to answer Hawken, then The Magnan will get his post down, then the hive mind assassination team gets rolling?

    and then we have to assimilate epicfailpig (if he wants to) into the group along with bella....

    am i missing something?

    It doesn't have to be as linear as that, Magnan can interject before Epic responds. We have been standing around for a bit, but don't feel like your character has to wait. Tulbuk could waltz over and pick up the Ghoul to investigate how it is still alive, or he could strike up a conversation with one of the other characters, while we wait for magnan to get us into the air. I'm not sure if Bella is going to make it in time, it will depend on how the posting goes.

    @lost - I know I'm a little late to the party, but... gwah he's so cute! x3

    @cheddar - Thanks a bundle! Though it technically wasn't my first... (but I'll just pretend it was. =P)

    @prettymucheveryoneinWilde'sgroup - Sorry I didn't really introduce Padoc yet. I wasn't sure what everyone's plans were, and I wanted to give everyone else a chance to speak. Plus, I feel like if I had allowed him to keep talking, that post would've gone on and on and on...

    It all sounds so easy, believe me, what I have in store for the Hive and you lot, is to say the least tricky to preempt, but as long as I get some of you to the quantum bit of the widow it should be fine. In fact, they may be different consequences depending on what happens on the Widow. So it should be fun, and apologies for my drifting off the pace can someone summarise the situation with the Nasgar because I'm confused, plus Erif is dealing with the ghouls so once I've done with them, I need to know where he can come in, so that I don't mess up with that character. Thanks and congratulations Lost.

    Just as a note; I'll be out of town for the weekend (I should be back by Monday). If our group is moving, feel free to have Atlas move along with you.

    Same with Ekard... school started and I don't have quite as much time to participate in RPGs. He isn't terribly involved anyways, so it shouldn't matter if he doesn't do much for a while until, say, Christmas break comes.

    Ok so I know that I only joined this site a couple days ago but I just wanted to know whether or not this game was still open to new people. If it is then could anyone maybe give me a summary on what has happened so far so I can jump in better without ruining everything else, or would it be better if I just went back and read everything, not just the beginning?

    The other may sum it up better but currently there are two groups, one is hunting for the orb of pyritus, the other is currently facing the threat of the Energi Hive Mind Truth. Currently Magnalian and Isel are facing off, Nasgar is gone I think, and Bella is following... too be honest I need updating with that section. In my half, with wilde, greywind and co, we are currently planning on boarding and shuttle entering the infected body of the Black Widow ship.

    So Magnan, just out of curriosity, how big are the halls of the black widow?

    And I guess Tulbuk would have a tought time sprinting to get out of the ship from the engine/engineering room, either the tail end or heart of the ship, so I am gunna take him to the bridge.

    I guess I will get a post up explaining why he chooses the bridge.

    Some are quite thin, as it is a stealth vessel in nature, however, some corridors are wide, in the hospital, on route to bridge etc. You'll have Wilde's soldier to guide you too.

    Hi randomme,

    I'm pretty sure this game is open to all people at any point in time, so you'd be fine jumping in whenever you want.

    Magnan has given you a pretty good summary of recent events, which I'd like to add to.

    The game setting is currently taking place on a planet called "Theta Prime". It's a bit of a sci-fi setting, and the planet has low gravity, lots of wildlife, and small streams of controlled gravity (you can read about it on this page; it's on a post by Galeskies). As Magnan mentioned, one group is hunting the Orb of Pyritus (with conflicts brewing amongst the members of the group, including fighting a giant serpent called a Nasgar), and the other is planning on boarding Tom Wilde's stealth spacecraft, with the goal of destroying an alien threat.

    I recommend reading the last few pages of posts rather than the first few, since the entire setting has changed since then.
