<b>Hey kid, what about me and the guys at Sat Comm?</b> *Turns around in his chair and sees Steinsky is concious.* "Hey sir. Good to see youre alright. Uh, If you can walk, I need to talk to you in private." *Helps Steinsky away from the group of marines that has huddled around Frosty to get ammo* "Were in a tough situation sir. The ship has stopped and Cpt.Terran and a group of others has lost contact with us. I havnt heard from Major Carter in a long time and I havnt seen any others with rank. So I geuss youre in charge now sir. I dont really have any ideas sir but we should keep the loss of Cpt.Terran secret. It's your call now boss."
"Alright, we're still low on muntions and weapons, so its up to us to get some more, the Khara have moved unbeleivalbe fast and unless we can do some heavy hiting, we might as well roll over here. The ships primary armories are here *points at map* The men up top mad it harder than h*ll to get to it, to make it harder for pirates to jump ship and use our guns agaisnt us. It takes an high end security code entered at both consoles next to the door to open. If Steinsky knows the code, or the cc can hack it smoothe sailing, if not, we'll need 2 weilders to open it. The hard part is going to be here *points at a place in map bout halfway between comsat and primary armory* This is the main ventalation crossection, its a bit cramped to expect any buildings or one of the hives, but its chucked full of vents. You, you'll be comm boy, you job is to sort out the general chater from what we need to know, eveyone else turn off comms and listen to everything around you. Keep your eyes open and watch ur backs. "
* looks at Steinsky and Kharma talking, catching only small snipits of the converstion, and a depresingly morose tone of voice*
"OK everyone without a gun get one, if someone doesnt have one and you have 2 give em one of urs. I'm going to see if Steinsky knows the codes."
*walks up to Steinsky and Karma, catching the last few words of thier converstion "your call now boss"*
"There are many things that are you call now boss, one of wich is can that chair of yours hack the main armory, do you know the codes, or are we going to have to hunt down a second weilder to get in?"
Since the a khara have a "Super" alien can I be a super marine???
I wanna be Major Zayl a veteran fighting the Zerg and the Khara......
I'll be in charge of a elite squad of marines carrying equipment the TSA and the outer rim marines jointly developed. I'll arrive in a DropShip...... is that ok?
maybe you could have laser vision while you are at it to get rid of the webs [/sarcasm]</b>
"Just because we havent heard from carter doesnt mean that hes dead. he is still in the comm chair, and while he is in there, he is still in charge. As for terran, well, there is nothing we can do to help him. with any luck he will be with a few others and hopefully he will be able to make his way back to us. if not, we just lost one of the best men."
<span style='color:green'>"Thats the last tiem i -Join the TSA, See the universe, Meet interesting people, and Things- HAHAHA they werent kidding when they said meet interesting things, look at those god forsaken kharra, they sure are interesting, AT THE END OF MY BOOMSTICK!"

<b>Yeah, but i'd still appreciate if you'd leave the twists to me and play your own character. Hard to develop any kind of plot when the one I had planned is bombed to pieces each time I log in.

Sorry to blow up your nice intentions, and I know roleplaying is supposed to be an individual thing.

<b>I make a move that we let xect clear up the story to his liking, he can phase people into one big group etc, sound good to everyone? we need this story to be back in a single plotline</b>
<b>I'm asking for actual volenteers, not random npc people, from what xect said so far, we have little to nothing in the way of actual weaponry, so i figure going and geting some is a good idea for the team.
