Aaaand posted. Generally don't do color for dialogue, but I also don't generally have two characters going on in one post, so as good a time as any to try it out.

Lighter colours help: Such as these, which are naturally soft on the eyes.

On the flip side, a lot of the lighter colours are hard to read on alternate AKA inferior styles.
 
Lots of lovely posts coming up.

Slightly off topic, I adore Mr. Bean and his silly antics, although on most days I find that I much prefer the humour of Blackadder.

I do also feel a bit bad for the poor family with a new door to their apartment. Alas, it is always the proletariat that must suffer.
 
@Everyone: I should be able to pop a post up over New Years! Sorry about the delay folks, for those aware: Lack of my brain medication, making it hard to focus on anythi-- OH MY GOD A FERRET.

No really though, I have notes done. So post will go up soon. :D

A wild ferret has appeared!

I have faith and tomorrow I will be drunk enough to love everyone equally.
 
Bank Truck

-Karl recommends planting C4 on the wall. Karl recommends a decoy path. (Going east, blowing a hole in the north wall to make it look like they went that way.) (No progressive actions taken.)
-Mafuyu climbs up the ladder a little, makes her own suggestion. (No longer covered fully by truck!)
-Terissa advises retreat. (No progressive actions taken.)
-Terra & LJ use explosives to break into the east wall.
Nightclub

-Els follows Maurice's plan and begins the distraction.
-Gabriel tries to start shit with the manager.
-Pavel and Anya slip into the bathroom on the second floor, to wait for "chaos".

The following players failed to post this round.

@Everyone: If you need a little help getting back into the swing of things, let me know. I know I left y'all hanging for a while, my bad.​

It happens to the best of us, I enjoyed the IC post.



@Limeypanda time for another collaborative effort?

I'm a bit busy today but the next couple of days I should be available.
 
It seems most likely that we'll have to engage in a bit of a ménage à trois with our lovely GM, in the near future.
 
I'm game, I'm sure we can find a suitable time for all three of us. :)
 
I have no idea what a ménage à trois is, but I'm game. I think.
 
@Jorick Don't suppose Gabriel could use some assistance in subduing the guard before things get out of hand?

I was planning on sneaking up behind him and zapping him with my lightning gloves as soon as we got out of view of the people on the first floor. Trying to keep things quiet for the moment, since no fights have actually broken out. That won't require any assistance unless things go terribly wrong, and Pavel, Anya, and Staznov are already up on the second floor in case of trouble.

Might be better for you to focus on getting to the laptop at the moment, or aiding Els in the security room if at all possible. Those are both far more important and in need of attention than the second floor activity right now.
 
Yeah, @Zombehs, feel free to try getting yourself to Els' position. Certainly couldn't hurt to have two of us in the security room. You know, teamwork and all.
 
Huh... did not read that post properly, thought Maurice did get dragged off.

Sure then. I take it the security guard wouldn't have made it back to his post yet, leaving the hallway door unguarded?

Also, are the dozen bodyguards stationed at the door at the hallway's end, in the storage room that's between the hallway and basement, or split amongst the two?
 
A late arrival here, Cleared it with Brovo already, though the character itself is still pending.
Forgive me if things seem a little lack luster, I'm so rusty at this I need WD40.


[BCOLOR=transparent]Name: Aiden[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Age: 23[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Sex: Male[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Race: Human[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Subfaction: Democratic Socialist.[/BCOLOR]

[BCOLOR=transparent]Appearance: A Plane looking man, Aiden has never once stood out in a crowd. Standing 5'10" with a slim build that almost borders on athletic and a face that's easily forgotten with blue eyes and short dark hair. Usually seen wearing jeans a blue hoodie with a leather jacket worn over it and leather gloves to cover his augmentations and to further his nondescript appearance. (He spends most of his time in the outskirts and the west end.)[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Biography: Aiden grew up in what would become the west end of the Sanguine Capitol. Born into an impoverished family in an unstable time for humanity Aiden quickly learned to fend for himself, either by scrounging or outright theft, he got what he needed. The chaos of the world didn't phase him much, he was usually away from the heaviest action and he'd known nothing else. Though his parents weren't the brightest people, Aiden had an insatiable thirst for knowledge and he spent most of his time reading in Libraries, whether he used textbooks or the computer, it didn't matter to him. [/BCOLOR]


[BCOLOR=transparent]By the age of 15 he knew more about the world than some people knew in their whole lives. It was at this age that Magitech drew his attention and it became his obsession. Sadly, his mother was diagnosed with cancer and was dead within the year. His mothers death caused a rift between he and his father and in the ensuing chaos of the world they simply went their separate ways after another year, leaving him alone to bare the horrors of the world and for the first time he truly understood how terrible the world had become and how powerless he was.[/BCOLOR]

[BCOLOR=transparent]Fortunately he already possessed the skills necessary to survive on his own and he managed to cope by throwing himself into the study of whatever Magitech or data he could get his hands on, hoping that he could use it to make himself stronger, or at least help him survive.[/BCOLOR]

[BCOLOR=transparent] Over the next few years he began to not only fully understand its workings, but began to improve on some designs and create his own, however the materials he needed were scarce, even in the newly stabilized world and he needed someway to get his hands on them. Fortunately for him the Rebellion was always looking for new recruits and hand the resources he needed. Joining was simply a means to further his research.[/BCOLOR]


[BCOLOR=transparent]In his first three years in the rebellion he spent most of his time stealing supplies and working on Magitech for the use of the more action oriented operatives, rarely able to keep anything for his own use. The next year he was used in a number of more violent actions, and once again he saw how weak humanity was in the face of the creatures that now ruled the world and he knew he would need to become something more than human if he were to have any hope, and that others would soon realize it too.[/BCOLOR]

[BCOLOR=transparent]During the next year he slowly gathered more magitechnical resources for his own personal use and began designing implants, prosthetics and weapons that he could use to improve his weak form. Finally by the time he was 22 he had managed to make himself more than Human. He started by implanting nanites into his body to help manage the processes he was planning. Then he replaced his left arm from the elbow down with an advanced magitechnical limb, capable of any normal task and much more, Including having an integrated weapons system similar to the lightning gloves commonly used by the Rebellion. Finally he replaced his right eye with one capable of seeing in multiple spectrums as well as the ability to see magic. However this is not the end of his plans of augmentation, he has many more ideas and he simply needs the resources.[/BCOLOR]

[BCOLOR=transparent]Personality-wise, he's always been quiet, reserved, slightly introverted and slow to make friends. Patient and calculating he prefers to think things through and prepare for situations in advance rather then work on the fly. [/BCOLOR]

[BCOLOR=transparent]Motivation: He has no stronger desire then to make himself and the human race strong enough to take back control of the world.[/BCOLOR]

[BCOLOR=transparent]Standard Traits: [/BCOLOR]
Magitech Lightning.

Magitech Nanites.

Awakened.

No Threat.

Light Munitions.


[BCOLOR=transparent]Custom Traits:[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Magitechnical Genius: Aidens' comprehension and aptitude for Magitech is such that he can improve on almost any design and is constantly creating his own, allowing for a much greater variety of gear and weapons than most people have acces to. (In this first case, it allows his arm to act as a weapon slightly more powerful than the average lightning glove as well as explains his eyes capabilities.)[/BCOLOR]

[BCOLOR=transparent]Signature: Yeah yeah Brovo, you can kill him if he gets stupid.[/BCOLOR]

Think it's done, if I missed something it's because I'm 80% asleep.

Just noticed the spacing thing, I have no earthly idea how to fix it.
