Yes, they are very, very much like that. Except there isn't one that will make you not explode if you step on something sharp.

DATABASE UPDATE: This one pertains to BOTH groups, as DJ is just that omnipresent.

So, wait, does that imply that normally we would explode if we stepped on something sharp? That seems like a pretty severe design flaw.

Aren't you guys glad you have a medic who has the schematics to confirm this?

Oh, right.
"You haven't told me what I'm looking for."
"Anything that might be of interest to Slitscan. Which is to say, anything that might be of interest to Slitscan's audience. Which is best visualized as a vicious, lazy, profoundly ignorant, perpetually hungry organism craving the warm god-flesh of the anointed. Personally I like to imagine something the size of a baby hippo, the color of a week-old boiled potato, that lives by itself, in the dark, in a double-wide on the outskirts of Topeka. It's covered with eyes and it sweats constantly. The sweat runs into those eyes and makes them sting. It has no mouth, Laney, no genitals, and can only express its mute extremes of murderous rage and infantile desire by changing the channels on a universal remote. Or by voting in presidential elections."

Because that's where the power needs to end up!

They have another reactor in their cores, too. But that powers only the body, none of the weapons.

Mission 3 for the main group is now OVER. CI can continue in the thread until the next mission starts.

You have one(1) Month of IC downtime where your character will be allowed to do as they please within the database. Research, video games, training, whatever. If you want to do something special (Research a specific subject, try to contact Thirteen (Or Vi, or anyone else), invent a better mouse pad), let me know and we'll work out the details.

As a reminder, I NEED SHEETS NOW. If you're not sure if I have your sheet, check with me, it never hurts to send it a second (Or third, or fourth) time.

The NEXT group doesn't need to worry about their sheets just yet.

I just wanted to make sure that everyone that hadn't seen Ashton's report the first time had had a chance to respond to it. I guess the only people who haven't done so are Kid, Janet, and Darren. And if the GM is ready to move on and Spleen hasn't posted in a week and a half, I guess it's officially okay to broom things along.

Universe of Battle reaches 10 million subscribers.

The popular online RPG, Universe of Battle, has reached 10 million subscribers.

The game, made by Stormsoft Entertainment, is currently the best selling single product in Krynus's history. As a follow up to their best-selling Battlescape series, the game started off immensely popular, and gained fame from there. Now, it's accepted as a perfectly valid way to spend one's evening, especially for the physically disabled.

Pitting players against one another by having them chose a faction (The well intentioned but ultimately misguided Coalition, and the warlike but honorable Legion), players compete against one another for ultimate control of the Universe.

The game is not without problems, though. Some parents think that their children are getting too 'in' to the game and becoming far too absorbed in their virtual surroundings and not the real world.

The sales results are clear though: Universe of Battle is king.

Rainy Season Begins with a Bang


The rain has come to Deck City, and with it, the common cold.

Within it's first week, the rainy season has already dropped over an inch of rain, and begun to fill doctors waiting rooms with sick children.

Time will tell how we fare this year.

D-52 to unveil new form of law enforcement


D-52 has begun to put out press releases concerning their Bluesky project.

It's unknown what, exactly, the project entails, but the Alliance, as well as the Empire and the Southern Colonies have signed off on it, as have several advocacy groups. The only official word is that this new force is expected to be met with mixed feelings, and they expect backlash to be high, but insist it's "For the best".

Time will tell.

Just to clarify for everyone, because I actually think I forgot to mention.

On top of the bikes, and the other personalized stuff, EVERYONE gets a PDA, like the one Janet was in. It'll be in the lockers. The PDAs come with the important wires and already seem set up and good to go.

SOME THINGS:

1: NEXT people need to post. For real. FOR REAL.

2: I'm thinking of making a general, catch-all CI thread for people to use if they want to just do general CI. The timeline will be vague "Between missions", probably constantly in The Mall, once that area of the database opens up for their use.

3: From mission 4 on (That includes NEXT people!), you will PICK YOUR OWN MISSIONS. Missions central to the plot will still be done at the correct time and place, but to give people more of a feel of playing a game, the group at large will get to collectively pick their missions. I'll be marking them with a few things to indicate the importance of the mission (New party members, new equipment, new archetypes unlocked through doing the missions, ect.)

Any objections?

ARE YOU READY?

Mission 4 for the main group is coming quickly to an end. Thus, I will be posting the options for the next missions:

1: Juliet (New Party Member, Follow Up/Split mission)
2: Marco (New Party Member, Weapons (Random)
3: Fitting In (Loss of one party member, Plot Central)

For clarification, missions marked "Follow up" will immediately be followed up with the next sequential mission. If they're marked "Plot Central", they will be chosen automatically later, if not chosen immediately.

CAST YOUR VOTES.

I vote for putting off the plot as long as possible. Just like a videogame! Juliet and Marco both sound interesting. If either of them happens to be a medic class, they get my vote.

Imperial Super Hero In Town



Imperial Super Kid Ellastic is in Deck City this week, making an appearance at local schools and gathering places.

Ellastic, who's real name remains unknown, is a favorite among children. The only public information on her is that she's thirteen years old and is an Imperial citizen. Her powers involve extreme elasticity and plasticity, allowing her to stretch and bounce like rubber.

Ellastic will be staying in D-52 headquarters, under the protection of the Diamond branch, but will be available for photos and autographs throughout the week- A great chance for your kids to meet a real life superhero.

Schedule details on page 10.

Prototype motorcycle stolen from factory



A prototype motorcycle was reported missing this morning from a factory in the Joker district. Michael McMahon reports that one of the factory doors was ripped off it's hinges entirely, and the cycle driven right out.

The factory is currently shut down pending investigation. The bike was reported to be "Nearly indestructible", but apparently not theft proof.

Flooding in Wetlands



Now, I know what you're all thinking. Wetlands? Wet? Inconceivable! But, it's true.

The already record rainfall of the stormy season is flooding the wetlands just outside the city faster than normal. Already plans have been put in action to sandbag the lower parts of the city to keep the water out, but that will also lead to road closings and traffic delays while detours are set up.
