[19:43] If it wasn't for the fact that I don't trust it, I wouldn't even use a clock. [19:44] But clocks are good. [19:45] * SleeeepyFV is now known as LesssleepyyFV [19:45] yea but I almost always wake up 5 minutes before the alarm goes off [19:45] * GoldenH feels like he had a good, 12 hour sleep. but it was only for 30 minutes. [19:51] Sometimes I think that Lynard Skynard's airplane crash was worse than 9/11. Then I think of all the victim's families that would kill me for saying that. [19:54] * GoldenH loads up americas army. Time to kill some terrorists in order to make up for his lapse in patriotism. [19:55] bb for the game [19:55] * DarthTom (~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3499351.sympatico.ca) Quit (Quit: "You think you're better than me because of your Spinaroonie ? Well the Spinaroonie has NOTHING on the Jericho Juke and Jive !" *dances spastically*) [19:55] * DarthTom [~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3499351.sympatico.ca] has left IRC [19:56] * Odessa (Hikari@zaqd378a413.zaq.ne.jp) has joined #pvpexalted [19:56] * Odessa is now known as Hikari [19:56] * Hikari [Hikari@zaqd378a413.zaq.ne.jp] is on IRC [19:56] Good morning. [19:57] goood morning! [19:57] how has your day been so far? [19:57] * GoldenH is now known as GoldenH|49E [19:57] Yeah, cannot put too many "o"s in that. :) [19:58] quite right =) [19:58] I got up, ate breakfast. Hitoshi is out jogging. [19:58] ooh, a jogger. lucky you. [19:58] (we got up, for once we got up together) [19:59] keeping his food warm? [19:59] Well, the jogging is rather recent. I am looking forward to seeing if it keeps up. [19:59] hope it does. I rather preferred it in the afternoon, but I'm funny that way [19:59] He ate a single toast when he left. If he want more when he comes back, he can toast it himself. [20:00] heh [20:00] Hey, I am going to be busy. [20:00] careful, he might burn your house down =) [20:00] * GoldenH|49E is now known as GoldenH|49W [20:01] Oh gods yes! I will be going AFK sometime not too distant! :) [20:01] heh [20:02] * GoldenH|49W thinks he has this Hind map figured out. go in the barn. [20:02] once you're in the barn you've already won [20:03] From Assault side, you mean? [20:04] (so that is what 49W meant...) [20:06] yea [20:07] either side, actually [20:07] It selected defense, Ikilled their entire team on my own [20:07] Getting a couple into the barn is always the key when on a farm, eh? [20:08] Such neat things the US Army teaches the young. ;) [20:10] So Fiat went to sleep again? [20:11] i think he's awake [20:11] I guesss it's not the key.. when your gun jams [20:11] still I got 2 of 'em . fair trade ;) [20:12] * GoldenH|49W dost like the farm. however, in real life, the barn smells of more than dirt and hay [20:12] f ? [20:12] heh [20:12] not when they're sitting on top of you with a gun :) [20:13] Guess not. Two guns action good. [20:14] yea, too bad this game doesn't support that kind of fighting. [20:15] US Army with bullet time...? Neat! [20:19] heh [20:19] got your email [20:20] (both?) [20:20] * DarthTom [~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3499351.sympatico.ca] is on IRC [20:20] * DarthTom (~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3499351.sympatico.ca) has joined #pvpexalted [20:20] Hello, DT. [20:20] yo [20:21] * LesssleepyyFV 's sort of awake. Just.... sort of. [20:21] and on a scale of 1 to 10...that BF1842 was riddled with arseholes [20:21] err [20:21] Bf1942 server [20:21] yea both :) [20:21] the king of the spil-sports:poor guy didn't get a plane....so he kept shooting down allied planes taking off until he got one [20:21] Amusingly, people in americas army actually don't teamkill. [20:21] * Hikari chuckles. [20:21] not on purpose, anyhow [20:22] except for you [20:22] ;) [20:22] I was so pissed, I almos tmissed with that bazooka rocket [20:22] Good soldiers you have got there. [20:22] I won't team-kill, but I *will* defend myself [20:22] should join in, hikari. we're 4/4 [20:22] And meanwhile the Evile Axis was having a picnic on the beach? :) [20:23] * Hikari is busy correcting the OTT post she finally felt satisfied with this morning. [20:23] Naw, the pretty much...damn Japanese one their high-and-mighty hill [20:23] Surubachi, eh? [20:23] Iwo Jima [20:24] Yep, mount Surubachi on Iwo Jima. [20:24] Ahh...yes [20:24] they sank our carrier and battleship TWICE [20:24] TWICE ! [20:24] * DarthTom knows little of the pacific conflict beyond the naval battles, sadly [20:25] Let me guess, your snipers were not good at calling in fire and nobody wanted to be a navy gunner? [20:25] our snipers never got on BEACH [20:26] some games, I'm in awe of the spontaneously devellopped teamwork... [20:26] 5 for 5 [20:26] others, I wonder how we evolved past the 'monkey' stage [20:26] Good picnic the Axis had then, maybe they even got to do a little surfing. [20:27] yesterday I was playing the Bulge [20:27] and the whole axis team decided 'hey...let's make like the Germans...massive blitzkrieg !" [20:28] (I was axis) [20:28] .... [20:28] It went well? [20:28] we swept from point to point, we didn't even defend, just one big sweeping army [20:28] we took a point, moved to the next [20:28] Cool. :) [20:28] The poor yanks never knew what hit them. [20:28] the allies were too concerned with playing catch-up [20:28] 5 tanks, and about 30 infantry in oen area [20:29] against 1 tank and maybe...10 infantry [20:29] it was a massacre [20:30] hmm, might actually loose this one. lets see... one last guy. [20:30] nope. theyfinally one on [20:30] I am fearsome with a tnak or bazooka [20:30] mainly the bazooka, though... [20:30] the dman enemies never seem to notice me hiding until they turn their backs to me [20:30] big mistake...then the tanks are jsut big fat target [20:31] When you have a bazooka, when aren't tanks big fat targets? [20:32] when they are using a cheatcode? [20:32] when they're faing right at you [20:32] and have 2 machine guns and an 88mm cannon pointed at you [20:33] well you just have to make your shot count... shoot it right in that 1" slot that the driver looks through [20:33] ...which is a fairly common occurrance when my team-mates fial to notify us of oncomign armor [20:34] Shoot the bastards anyway. If they have such an arsenal pointed at you, your dead corpse isn't going to need that ammo. [20:34] I do [20:34] Doesn't do SHIT, but I do [20:35] * LesssleepyyFV 's waiting for the BF1942 engine to allow for bullet-time. [20:36] I can just se ethe bullet-time reaction now... [20:36] Never happen, of course, but there's just something bizarre about it that appeals. [20:36] (Bazooka man) "ohhhh shiiiiiiiiitttttttt...." [20:36] *whoooooooooooooooooooossssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh* [20:36] *ratatatatatatatatata* [20:37] *b-kow* [20:37] * LesssleepyyFV thinks it's mainly the concept of bullet-timing crashes and firey explosive deaths. [20:37] "Gyaaaaaagggghhhhhh !" [20:37] *slow motion death fall* [20:37] ...waitaminute [20:37] I tihnk I just described a typicla scene in Windtalkers [20:37] Hmmmm... Need Windtalkers, the game. [20:38] * Tiger I leaps over the hill, enters bullet time, turret turns in slow motion, infantry and antitank guns die, tiger I lands on ground in a slowly expanding cloud of dust, time resumes. [20:38] * LesssleepyyFV knows he's going to get his pathetic ass kicked. I just ask for the opportunity to get it kicked in style. [20:38] okay...does anyone in here know WTF an autococker is in paintball ? [20:39] Semi auto. [20:39] Essentially. Gotta be careful with them, as on occasion they'll get out of sync and gum up the gun. [20:39] No, 'cause there are semi-autos without autococking, are there not ? [20:40] The tippman 98 ain't an autcocker...yet it is semi-auto [20:40] Hunh.... [20:41] I assume they're not kind enough to have blueprints available for scanning? [20:41] whoop. got tk'd. enough for now [20:41] * GoldenH|49W is now known as GoldenH [20:42] hmmmm who's missing... [20:42] * Tabius [~web-Guest@ip68-96-99-12.lv.lv.cox.net] is on IRC [20:42] * Tabius (~web-Guest@ip68-96-99-12.lv.lv.cox.net) has joined #pvpexalted [20:42] ahhh hello [20:42] yo [20:42] FV:nope [20:42] Howdly [20:42] okay, 3 more people [20:42] Hello, Thanos. [20:43] I suppose it's possible, but it would have to be done in such a way as to essentially launch the ball with pure pressurized gas. [20:43] * Thanos [~web-Guest@ip68-96-99-12.lv.lv.cox.net] is on IRC [20:43] * Tabius bows to Hikari [20:44] 'ello, Tabs. [20:44] Hi L........

Something about little cousin's birthday party, wasn't it? [20:48] yea [20:49] Yeah....No Maris :-{ [20:49] Now if I can just pay off the other 2/3rds of my student loans I will be just dandy. [20:49] * LesssleepyyFV 's disappointed. I was counting on him to mug Meridian for that nifty adamant blade. [20:50] You just go Arrow Time (tm) on him yourself. [20:50] Where are you going to school GH, that Diffy Q is only 3 creditsÀ [20:50] MCC ;) [20:50] Awwww.... but that would be work! And likely to get me all scratched up. [20:50] community college, even. I know, it's a lot for a 3 hour class, isn't it? [20:50] Well that just means I pay less. [20:51] Yeah..... [20:51] * GoldenH is now known as Storyteller [20:51] I am used to difficult math courses being 4 credit hour courses and hell on the brain..... [20:52] When we last left our insipid heroes, we were all asleep, right? [20:52] actually both DQ and Calc3 are the only 3 hour math classes, if I remember correctly [20:52] Heheheh and language courses didn't go above 2 SH [20:52] yeap. and that means.. dun dun dun! dream sequences [20:52] NOOOOOO!!!!!! [20:52] :P [20:52] hehehehe [20:52] not everyone gets a dream sequence :) [20:52] Bring it. [20:52] Jynaru isn't worthy [20:52] * Hikari is now known as Cicada [20:52] * Hikari [Hikari@zaqd378a413.zaq.ne.jp] has left IRC [20:52] * Cicada [Hikari@zaqd378a413.zaq.ne.jp] is on IRC [20:53] I would think the people on the ship are already in one ;-) [20:53] lol [20:53] * Cicada never gets a dream sequence... (sniff) [20:53] hehe... [20:53] are you still lugging aroud that block of jade? [20:53] * Cicada 's mind is a terrible place though, so maybe it is for the best..? [20:54] Yes. [20:54] * LesssleepyyFV can see it now. Stealth archer Jynaru kicking people in the head and running away. If I can't have a dream sequence, ain't NOBODY having a dream sequence. [20:54] allright. [20:54] maybe next session. I sure am lazy [20:54] (*Cicada would have dreams of Tabius and Tei fighting through her head*) [20:54] t-6, missing tala, tei, and ... hmm I can never remember how many players I have. [20:55] Shak [20:55] Missing Tala, Tei, the mythical TSJ, and Teh Maris. [20:55] Jyn?> [20:55] TSJ's MIA 'till january [20:55] That's FV [20:55] OH [20:55] And now you understand the importance of not being seen. [20:55] Or maybe of waking up happy and well rested in the morning, smiling and saying goodmorning to Tabius next to her, then turning and saying goodmorning to Tei on the other side of her? :) [20:56] * LesssleepyyFV throws a vorpal goldfish and runs. [20:56] lol [20:56] Wait, that is no dream... That is a bloody premonition! [20:56] Bloody, yes, that certainly applies... [20:56] (Van) "Oh bloody hell, that Bronzed Bastard's never gonna let me hear the end of it." [20:57] * LesssleepyyFV 's just waiting for one of the two to botch a roll and go nuclear on the other. I'll sell tickets to the natives. It'll be better than Tyson/Holyfield! [20:57] hrmmmm An IO staying to make sure that the marriage was consumated? [20:57] * Tei [manxcat@wv-mltn-ubr-c-024-159-089-167.charterwv.net] is on IRC [20:57] * Walknuki (notmyemail@pcp485609pcs.whtmrs01.md.comcast.net) has joined #pvpexalted [20:57] * Tei (manxcat@wv-mltn-ubr-c-024-159-089-167.charterwv.net) has joined #pvpexalted [20:57] Yo Tei [20:58] 'ello, Tei.

[20:59] * Walknuki writes down "Lots of women lunars" [20:59] Just throw Cthulu at them now, save time for later. [20:59] * LesssleepyyFV ponders. [21:00] lunars can be blonds, brunettes, AND redheads. all at the same time. [21:00] But that hair can be in less.... apealing places. [21:00] Bionka Kojo ;-) [21:01] Is sex part of the transformation template? Say the aforementioned river dragon thing takes place. It's a male RD, and a female lunar gets the heart's blood. So when you go to transform, would the Lunar be male or female? [21:01] Okay, Sibling Rivalry is finally up on the OTT. Worked on that damn piece for almost a month... [21:01] Dunno, don't have the book yet :) [21:01] So, of a sexxy woman lunar turns into a half animal thing... is she a furry? [21:01] * Storyteller claps for cicada [21:01] Walknuki, no. Furries are permanantly like that. [21:01] Hope it is not toooooo dark.... [21:01] * Tabius looks sideways at Walknuki [21:01] ^_^ [21:01] should we wait for Tala? [21:01] If it is, just turn up the gamma. [21:02] * Storyteller sets mode: +v Tei [21:02] :-) [21:02] Oooh. Game about to start, or am I interupting? [21:02] game about to start, you can watch [21:02] Eh, 5 minutes. [21:02] 5 minutes is good [21:02] It'll take that long to collect all the wayward watchers anyway. [21:02] * LesssleepyyFV is now known as Jynaru [21:02] * Jynaru [Fiat@dialup-209.246.186.53.Dial1.Atlanta1.Level3.net] is on IRC [21:02] I'll stick around untill my crew shows up.

[21:05] How about if they just leap on you and strangle you with your own arteries? [21:05] Could they just suck all the iron out of your blood? [21:05] From a distance that is.

[21:09] Dude, are you TRYING to make Van's Limit Break ? [21:09] * Cicada beams with pride. [21:09] As the sun touches the great ocean in the far west, a great spiriling of fire will rise in the sky from the central mountain. Like a inverted waterfall, dozens of streams of fire shoot up into the air weaving each other [21:09] (*Ah hush now Vanal...... let the ST tell the story [21:09] then falling to the ground, leaving the afterimage burnt into your eyes [21:09] moments later the island begins shaking [21:10] "The ThunderBirds are 'battling', I suppose..." [21:10] * Werlynn [~Werlynn@ool-182ded4e.dyn.optonline.net] is on IRC [21:10] squeeks emerge from Cicada's blouse as moments later, the bay in front of you is filled with great, streaking lines of fire [21:10] * Werlynn (~Werlynn@ool-182ded4e.dyn.optonline.net) has joined #pvpexalted [21:10] (howdy) [21:10] * Storyteller sets mode: +v Werlynn [21:11] "Holy Malfeaus, its an active volcano!" [21:11] emenating, apparently in a straight line, you see no less than 8 seperate lines of fire burning across the water, only this time you get a better look. It is clearly some kind of large object leaving a trail of fire behind it. [21:11] * Cicada looks around. How are the natives reacting? [21:11] (Holy Malfeas? AHA!!! INFERNALIST! A WITCH! A WITCH!!! BURN HIM!) [21:12] The natives are trying to ignore it, but every so often the try to catch a glimpse [21:12] * Werlynn is now known as Tala [21:12] * Werlynn [~Werlynn@ool-182ded4e.dyn.optonline.net] has left IRC [21:12] * Tala [~Werlynn@ool-182ded4e.dyn.optonline.net] is on IRC [21:12] (but he has no wart...) [21:12] They streak over the waters of the bay at speeds unheard of in the second age of man, until finally stopping somewhere, out of sight. [21:13] (Careful Jyn...remember, Van is eerily similar to Jayne in firefly...and he saved a 'witch's' butt last night) [21:13] as last time: away team: #pvpexalted [21:13] bridge crew: #pvpexalted2 [21:13] (Hey, if you show up with a spaceship and assault rifle, you can have the scene.)

But, you will find a robe and warm food (looks like oatmeal w/ raisins) waiting for you when you wake [21:33] * Vanal wrinkles his nose at the meal [21:33] also you all have private bathrooms and showers and the like [21:33] "I hate that stuff." [21:34] * Jynaru sniffs the meal carefully, and will dip a finger in and touch it ot the tip of his tongue, testing for poisons. Yay for low Lore scores. [21:34] it doesn't SEEM like posion. but you never know. [21:34] those rasins look fresh though [21:34] * Jynaru blinks. [21:34] * Vanal rummages and tries to see if he shoved a ration bar somewhere in his clothes [21:35] "Fresh fruit? Oh, FUCK." [21:35] * Jynaru 'll shower off and see if the robe fits before essaying into the wild world of Anathema cuisine. [21:36] * Vanal shrugs, and trims his goatee and tidies himself up before continuing his search for familiar food [21:36] Roll wits + survival [21:36] !ex 5 [21:36] Vanal : !ex 5, 3, 8, 5, 8, 1, Successes : 2 [21:37] yea, you got a ration bar, enough for a whole day. and a first aid kit. [21:37] (The legionnaire motto :be prepared !) [21:37] * Vanal chows down and pulls on the robe [21:37] mmmm, iron rations [21:38] Jynaru, it tastes like decent oatmeal [21:38] * L_Jynaru (Fiat@dialup-63.210.74.61.Dial1.Atlanta1.Level3.net) has joined #pvpexalted [21:39] (Like I said, who rolls the dice?)

Disconnect=MOJO!) [21:41] (think it just might be a mojo night. stay tuned.) [21:41] (Does the robe fit me?) [21:41] yea [21:41] (Is my cool pirate hat in sight?) [21:43] yea, it's lying right where you left it [21:43] * Tala doesn't remember going to bed [21:43] Any wardrobes or such? [21:43] Tala, everyone went to sleep. [21:43] you were provided rooms. It's the next morning now. [21:44] really nice rooms. [21:45] * Tala goes to where the hole in the hull was before it vanished [21:45] * L_Jynaru 'd like to know if he was provided more of these clothes, or if the robe and yesterday's issue is all that's available. [21:45] Tala, you make your way back to the ship, but the door is locked. [21:46] Yesterday's clothes. Looks like it's been cleaned or something though. [21:46] * Tala attempts to make it no longer closed [21:47] it's locked. attack or lockpicking? [21:47] * L_Jynaru gets dressed and goes over to check on Vanal. Hobnail in hand, as before. [21:47] * Vanal sighs and pulls on the clothes [21:47] * Vanal looks at himself in the mirror [21:47] "I look like a damned PONCE." [21:48] Tala, two kids run by. One boy, one girl. They look like they're dressed in smaller versions of the clothing style everyone else is wearing. [21:48] * L_Jynaru knocks on the door with the hand NOT holding the Iron Nail of Fae-detection. "Hey, Van, you awake? [21:48] * Tala has no lockpicks [21:48] "Yeah, come in." [21:48] Allright Tala. Roll dex + martial arts. [21:49] * Tala waits until the kids are gone [21:49] they run after each other laughing, around the corner after a few moments [21:49] * L_Jynaru will enter, and do the dropping nail on skin bit and watch closely. "How was the rest?" [21:50] Jyn dex + larceny , vanal per + larceny [21:50] !ex 2 [21:50] Vanal : !ex 2, 3, 8, Successes : 1 [21:50] !ex 4 [21:50] L_Jynaru : !ex 4, 9, 10, 4, 6, Successes : 3 [21:50] (Jynaru: : I am not a crook.)

[21:51] * L_Jynaru nods. "Vanal, what kind of shoes do you wear?" [21:51] "size 11 and a half, steel-toed standard-issue legion boots, why ?" [21:52] "Black leather." [21:52] * L_Jynaru sits on the bed and carefully replaces his secret weapon. "Standard issue legion or legion spec ops?" [21:52] "Heavy Infantry." [21:53] "Chack and see if one of your clasps or nails is different from the others. Humor me." [21:53] * Vanal pulls off both his gloves [21:53] * Vanal checks [21:54] "What the fuck are you so jumpy about, Jyn ?" [21:54] "This damn place gives me the jaggies too. No sunlight." [21:54] "You want a complete personnel list of the 10 Days Talon, too ?" [21:54] * L_Jynaru shrugs. "Standard issue spec ops footwear. At least one cold iron nail." [21:55] * L_Jynaru smiles. "Apparently, you're not Fae." [21:55] "No shit, Magistrate." [21:55] "And neither is Tei... and there WAS fresh fruit this morning... things don't look good." [21:55] * Vanal alsopointedly walks over to the bathroom and touches the mirror [21:56] "Happy ?" [21:56] * L_Jynaru blinks. "Something I haven't thought of. There a smaller mirror around?" [21:56] (Tala are you using your weapons?) [21:56] * Vanal points to his armor [21:57] * Vanal fastens his collar around the back of his neck [21:58] "Got any ideas about what's going on? Strange dreams, visitations not from the friendly dynast next door? [21:58] "Well, fae...or a deadland." [21:59] "come on, let's get the others." [21:59] [oh yeah, forgot Accuracy] [21:59] * L_Jynaru shakes his head emphatically. "This isn't a deadland. I've been in deadlands, and this is no deadland." [21:59] !ex 2 [21:59] Tala : !ex 2, 4, 1, Successes : 0, Botch [21:59] add that [21:59] so still 4 sucs [21:59] * Vanal picks up his gear, strap it on and tries to style his clothign around that, somewhat... [22:00] "We hit tha tmagical clothing thingie...I need some clothes that wearing armor ove rwill NOt look conspicuous" [22:00] Tala, you smash the door as hard as you can, but the pearl door absorbs the impact and warbles softly. [22:01] "Feh. As if people who don't speak the language are inconspicuous." [22:01] "At least so we don't LOOK it." [22:01] "We've got to figure out some explanation for that, you know." [22:01] "I don't fancy having a damn shipfull of First Age people after me." [22:01] "Speech impediments ?" [22:01] * Tala attempts to pry it with her claws [22:02] "For all of us?" [22:02] * L_Jynaru shakes his head. [22:02] "Never quite got the hang of that mush of a language they speak ?" [22:02] "country bumpkins ?" [22:02] Tala, you manage to scratch the beautiful inlaid design in the pearl door, but not much else. [22:02] "wait...nix that one. Shak could NEVEr convincingly play a low-rent country bumpkin." [22:02] "Might work. Who do you think would be the best one in charge?" [22:03] "Figurehead, anyawy." [22:03] "I was covering your ass pretty well...me ?" [22:03] Maris walks in, wiping down his claws as he does so. [22:04] * L_Jynaru runs his hand through his hair. "Maybe. Might work best with Shakel. You don't exactly look as if you need a bodyguard." [22:04] "Sleep well?" he says, Irin walking in after him. [22:04] * Tala tries to get to the deck [22:04] "Hello, Maris, Irin." [22:04] "Have a seat." [22:04] "Hm...maybe I'm HER bodyguard ?" [22:04] * Tala shifts her perceptions to the spirit plane [22:04] Irin waves shyly, then they both take the available cushioned chairs. [22:05] "Morning Maris, scalemaster." [22:05] [3 personal essence 2 periph, Spirit Sight [22:05] "Irin, or Shak? There's few enough of us to pass off as servants or at least act as if we're trying to pass off as servants." [22:06] Tala, your perceptions shift into the spirit plane, as you look around you. You can see a least god working on the door, cursing angrily at you as it hammers away at the scratches. Other than that, you can feel some other nearby spirits, and a large presence deep inside the ship, but that is all. [22:06] "Shakel...I think Maris could play the part of Irin's bodygaurd pretty well, couldn't you buddy ?" [22:06] Irin looks at Jynaru oddly. "And we speak old realm now?" [22:06] "We're trying to figure out some sort of cover story." [22:07] * L_Jynaru takes an appraising look at Maris. "Could work. Might be best with Maris and Tala, though. The armor detail slightly resembles her." [22:07] "Remember, as far as they're concerned, Tala's wonky..." [22:07] * L_Jynaru shrugs and yet again palms the iron nail. "Hey, Irin, catch." [22:07] * Tala pauses to tell the tiny spirit (not awknowledging it as a god) that if it had opened the door, she wouldn't have had to do that. [22:07] * L_Jynaru easily lofts the nail towards her. [22:08] "don't you EVER give it up ?" [22:08] "No. How do you think I got this far?" [22:08] "By sleeping around ?" [22:08] * Tala then continues to the main deck to get outside [22:08] The spirit just waves it's teeny little fist at you and goes back to work at the door. Not doing much good. [22:09] "That was more a benefit of the job. Get what they can out of me before I face down one too many crises." [22:09] "You're lucky I don't like men, buddy...or I'd hafta slap you." [22:10] * L_Jynaru motions for Irin to hand the iron nail to Maris. "Feisty before your morning coffee, aren't ya?" [22:10] "And sorry about the precautions, but after the mirrorspell fiasco, it's best to be sure." [22:11] * Vanal scowls [22:11] Irin grabs the nail midair [22:11] Maris takes the nail, looks at it for a moment, and then puts it on a nearby table. [22:12] (Did they each touch the damn thing?) [22:12] Yeap [22:12] "That just leaves Shakel and Tei (a Tei-thing WAs with us, right ?) [22:12] "Where is Tala, anyway?" [22:12] "no offense guys...but..touch the bracer, please." [22:13] * Vanal hold sout his arm, with a shiny reflective lamellar bracer around it [22:13] *they do, to no effect. Maris is starting to look bored. [22:14] "Storm let up yet?" [22:14] * L_Jynaru snags the iron nail and places it in a pouch for easy access. [22:14] "sorry guys...just satisfying Jyn's paranoia." [22:14] "Look, we'd better figur eotu what the fuck is going on, and track down the others..." [22:14] "Dunno. Just got up. Haven't slept on such a satisfying simulation of a bed in a long time." [22:15] "Damned if I know. [22:15] Shakel walks in, wearing what she did yesterday, and looking dissapointed by it. [22:15] * L_Jynaru sighs. "I have to make up for your lack of it, Vanal. How the hell do you know I'm not going to sprout pointy ears and devour your soul, eh?" [22:16] * Vanal tosses the nail to shak "Catch, hon." [22:16] "Hello, Shak. Touch the mirror, catch the nail, win a fabulous prize." [22:16] Shak does, clinking the nail on the bracer before throwing it back to Jynaru. [22:16] "Fae?" [22:16] "all my logn years as a legionnaire developping a kille rinstinct, Jyn." [22:17] "Fae." [22:17] "Standard precautions." [22:17] "I checked Tei last night. He's clean." [22:17] "Great." [22:17] "And disappointed by your threads ALREADY, dear ?" [22:18] "Shakel, have you seen our resident monkess?" [22:18] Shakel shakes her head no [22:18] * Tala continues to the main deck to get outside [22:19] Tala, all the doors are locked [22:19] If you put your ear to them, you can hear a steady, cyclical thumping [22:19] "Damn her. You'd think with all the special tricks they teach monks they'd include a tiny bit of common sense." [22:19] like waves, or maybe machinery. [22:19] also roll perception + awareness [22:19] "Remember, if she get's caught...she's wonky." [22:19] "that's the cover story for her..." [22:20] "She's wonky, I'm a druggie, and the rest of you are countryfolk, eh?" [22:20] "Well, works for me." [22:21] Maris looks at Jynaru amused, but merely continues shining his claws. [22:21] !ex 5 [22:21] Tala : !ex 5, 3, 10, 10, 9, 7, Successes : 6 [22:21] * L_Jynaru drums his fingers on the bed. "Great. Now, anyone else have any ideas, strange dreams or visitations to report?" [22:22] Tala.. as you are working your way from one door to another (right side of the ship, just forward of the center) you feel a wash of essence flow over you. Not spiritual in nature, but a definate disturbance in the spirit world. [22:22] "Nope." [22:23] [still have Spirit Sight up unless scene changed] [22:23] [do i see anything] [22:24] [nope. Least gods seem unusually active though.] [22:25] (Sorry to put such a strain on the NPCS, but dammit, I played the Thing. You can't expect me to wander blithely through this freaking ghost-ship without precautions.) [22:25] (heh) [22:25] (So, they have nothing to tell me?) [22:27] (not really, Irin is hanging around maris, maris is more interested in his claws then you, and shakel seems to just want to get a new outfit. [22:27] * Tala tries to reach the larger spirit presence [22:27] roll wits + investigation [22:28] (Useless water aspects.) [22:28] "Okay, well...let's find the others..." [22:28] "Yeah."

You keep getting close, only to either stop feeling it altogether, or to find that there simply is no corridor passing through the area. [22:30] It also seems to be a rather sharp line between feeling it or not, which makes it difficult to figure out where it is originating [22:31] like a thin beam of light shining through a lense... [22:31] * L_Jynaru will also watch for Tei as they comb the hallways looking for Tala. [22:32] * Storyteller sets mode: +v L_Jynaru [22:32] "So, what did you think of Meridian?" [22:32] "don't trst 'im." [22:32] okay, jyn and vanal with the int + investigation [22:32] !ex 4 [22:32] Vanal : !ex 4, 8, 1, 1, 6, Successes : 1 [22:32] "Beyond that.

[22:35] "Hey ! Tala !" [22:35] She looks rather exasperated [22:35] "Think fast!" [22:35] * L_Jynaru tosses the nail at her. [22:36] * Tala catches it effortlessly [22:36] "This is for?" [22:36] "Security. Touch the bracer." [22:36] * L_Jynaru holds out a hand for the nail. [22:37] * Vanal hold sout his bracered arm [22:38] "What are you doing out here, anyway?" [22:41] * Tala looks at Jynaru like he's wierd [22:41] "What are you talking about?" [22:42] * L_Jynaru bites off a curse. "Do they teach you route-walkers nothing? Iron nail. Standard check for Fae. Touch the mirror, you're not an evil clone." [22:44] * Tala raises an eyebrow. [22:44] "I just caught an Iron Nail, you know I'm not Fae or one of their illusions." [22:45] "I am trying to find a way deeper into the ship." [22:45] "I could not reach the area where the hole was, however I can feel the presence of a powerful spirit here." [22:45] "Exactly. Now touch the damn mirror so we know Bloom isn't trying for the full set of monks." [22:47] * Tala rolls her eyes and touches the bracer [22:47] Tala does not explode into flames [22:47] "Much better. The nail?" [22:47] ]holding it[ [22:52] (I'm asknig for it back. Anyone have anything to say whilst we hold it?) [22:52] (er, I meant she was holding it. :O) [22:53] * Tala hands it back [22:53] "Have you found any of these infernal doors which will open?" [22:54] "The doors don't open. [22:54] "We want me to unlock one of them ?" [22:55] "Oh, yes, brilliant, let's hack the bloody thing down. That's great subtlety, there." [22:56] "Fuck subtlety, Jyn." [22:56] "this place gives me the creeps, and I want the hell out." [22:57] "Fine. You get out of here with a fancy glass sword in your throat." [22:57] "Well, I don't hear YOU giving any damned suggestions !" [22:59] "You want to hear an idea? We find Tei. We find that Meridian guy. If this is what I think it is, he'll tell us what to do." [23:00] * Vanal shrugs [23:00] "Fine." [23:00] * L_Jynaru will assume they all follow their glorious Cap'n Jynaru. Yarrr. [23:01] Where you off to, Cap'n>?>" [23:01] [you 'n the cap'n can make it happen.. if you figure it out in time!" [23:01] (Tei's room.) [23:02] "We should try to find this spirit." [23:03] "And doesn't Tei have the same abilities? Two heads are better than one." [23:03] You all show up at Tei's room. Knocking on the door doesn't seem to have any answer. [23:04] "Tei? You in there?" [23:04] (Any servants or such around?) [23:04] no answer [23:05] Place seems deserted, except for the occasional sound of laughter, sometimes nearby, and the roaring conversation from the main halls above. [23:05] * L_Jynaru leans against the door. "Is there something in the freaking monk's code that says in enemy territory, wander around by yourself and get killed, Tala?" [23:07] * Tala ignores Jynaru's comment [23:07] "Damn. Don't have time for this. Let's just head to the party and hope we see him on the way." [23:08] Shakel looks up and to the right, apparently something on her mind [clothes] [23:09] "Something wrong, Shak ?" [23:09] (A CLUE! Let's write it down in our handy-dandy notebook! I feel like the idiot on Blue's Clues here.) [23:09] "No, nothing's wrong vanal" [23:09] "Well, come on. Maybe you ladies can play dressup again when we get there." [23:10] * Vanal shrugs [23:10] "I heard a steady thumping sound behind several of the doors." [23:10] (Yarrr. At least I don't need sea legs for this.) [23:10] "Random thumps or pattern?" [23:11] "Steady. Steady would be a pattern." [23:11] [same scene still?] [23:12] yea [23:12] last time this scene [23:12] (Ready to move onto the patio when you are. [23:13] patio?

[23:15] yes [23:15] !ex 5 [23:15] L_Jynaru : !ex 5, 10, 7, 10, 3, 7, Successes : 6 [23:15] !ex 5 [23:15] Tala : !ex 5, 1, 3, 5, 4, 10, Successes : 2 [23:16] !ex 4 [23:16] Vanal : !ex 4, 7, 6, 6, 5, Successes : 1 [23:17] You wander back up to the great party, and after wandering around for a bit, and being offered some snacks or wine from several servent-borne trays (whom Irin uses her light knowledge of old realm to thank) Jynaru thinks he spies Meridian in the far corner (left of the great door) talking to a rather well dressed man [23:18] (Well dressed man? Describe. Thoroughly.) [23:18] * L_Jynaru narrows his eyes as he gazes across the room, snagging Irin and leading her towards the pair. [23:19] tall, about 6'1. Maybe a tad overweight. Two large sashes, one red, one yellow, underneath that, woven dark red sweater, black silk pants, loafers. [23:19] A black cape, an adamantium sword at his side, and his hair is white and balding. [23:20] light skin, probably from the scavanger lands, kindly old face [23:21] * L_Jynaru will bow politely and inquire as to the storm. [23:23] The old man looks at you oddly, and Meridian makes a quick remark in old realm you don't undersatnd, before responding in kind [23:23] (roll per + awe) [23:23] "The storm isn't going to break anytime soon. Which is odd. The spirit courts are going to have hell to pay." [23:23] "We're going to try to land ashore anyhow. The hull should be able to take it. We're working on emptying the holds, just in case. [23:24] !ex 5 [23:24] L_Jynaru : !ex 5, 3, 2, 7, 9, 1, Successes : 2 [23:24] And a WP.

I have always tried to be a worthy scolar." [23:29] [23:30] (soloar? scholar?) [23:30] "How long do you expect us to be under lockdown?" [23:30] [23:30] [23:30] [23:31] "Three, maybe four hours." [23:31] "Excellent! I could use some sunlight." [23:31] * L_Jynaru smiles broadly. [23:31] "Yes, but learning a language in less than a day, most impressive." Tala smiles and presents the comment as a flattering complement [23:32] Myridian chuckles. "There's a excercise room if you like." [23:32] * Vanal frowns, and tries to puzzle this all together [23:32] Myridian simply bows. [23:32] "sir...what is the island we are to land ashore on ?" [23:32] "Madam, our age is an age of wonders. My skill is nothing compared to my betters." [23:32] "The Isle of Twilight Tears. WhY?" [23:32] "Twilight tears ?" [23:32] * L_Jynaru sighs theatrically. "And he says I indulge too much." [23:32] "Strange name." [23:33] "You do indulge too much." [23:33] He smiles, and turns to the man and starts chatting again in old realm nonchalantly. [23:33] (Is the man familiar at all?) [23:33] not recognized, no [23:33] (Mystery dude, not our friendly minion Meridian.) [23:34] * Vanal furrows his brow and gently strokes his goatee, apparentlly deep in thought [23:35] (xactly) [23:36] * L_Jynaru will gather the group. "Three, four hours. want to check out this excercise room?" [23:36] [23:36] !ex 24 [23:36] L_Jynaru : !ex 24, 2, 3, 4, 7, 1, 8, 1, 3, 4, 3, 6, 6, 8, 9, 3, 2, 8, 3, 10, 7, 8, 1, 8, 6, Successes : 10 [23:37] !ex 16 [23:37] Vanal : !ex 16, 5, 7, 5, 3, 6, 1, 6, 10, 3, 1, 1, 10, 2, 1, 3, 10, Successes : 7 [23:37] T?

[23:38] * Tala exuses herself and resumes her search for the spirit [23:38] "Sir, there is a Library as well, if you would prefer that." [23:39] * Vanal nods " [23:39] "I may just take a look at it, thank you." [23:40] * L_Jynaru will approach Shakel and mention finishing that little match of theirs from a while back. [23:40] !ex 43 [23:40] Tala : !ex 43, 10, 5, 4, 6, 10, 6, 7, 3, 3, 2, 7, 9, 7, 8, 2, 4, 4, 1, 2, 8, 4, 8, 1, 8, 4, 8, 7, 1, 7, 2, 8, 9, 9, 10, 7, 4, 5, 6, 6, 7, 1, 5, 6, Successes : 22 [23:40] He smiles, bids you good day [you know that much old realm], and walks off with his companion [23:43] "I'd take him up on the liabrary offer...but I doubt I'd be able to read any of it." [23:43] [how long since I activated my charm?] [23:44] long enough for it to wear off [23:44] [i assume scene change, but i was at anima II, so I need to know if I am at anima I or anima 0 [23:45] ] [23:45] [lets say, an hour] [23:45] [k, Anima 1] [23:45] [essence from Stone comes back right?] [23:46] [yea you haven't noticed running out of essence yet] [23:46] [note that you only regain the successes, though. so if that was less than the essence you should have gained...] [23:46] [k, what sort of state? Working, relaxed?] [23:46] Jynaru, you have been sparring in the training room. It's a rather simple room, with what look to be magically padded orichulum walls and floors to prevent damamge. It has been dulled though, so it shouldn't be too blinding. [23:47] [working] [23:47] There are several automatons, and a few other sparring. [23:47] [so 0 per hour?] [23:47] Two obviously solars [23:47] Tala: you regained 22 essence over those four hours. [23:47] instead of the possible 43 [23:47] (Describe the solars and the automatons.

You get no closer to the powerful spirits, but you're starting to think something is wrong with the people, you just can't place it. And the spirits seem wrong too. [23:52] * Tala looks for the others [23:53] * Vanal (~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3499351.sympatico.ca) Quit (Connection reset by peer) [23:53] * Vanal [~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3499351.sympatico.ca] has left IRC [23:53] Jynaru, solar number one has completey white hair, his large, angelic anima glowing in a mix of gold and red, the mark of the dawn on his forehead, and on his brilliant orichulum armor. [23:55] * DarthTom [~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3499351.sympatico.ca] is on IRC [23:55] * DarthTom (~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3499351.sympatico.ca) has joined #pvpexalted [23:55] * DarthTom is now known as Vanal [23:55] * DarthTom [~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3499351.sympatico.ca] has left IRC [23:55] * Vanal [~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3499351.sympatico.ca] is on IRC [23:55] Solar number two has the mark of the twilight, a huge multicolored mandela showing blasphemous gods of the Unconquered Sun, Luna, the 5 maidens, and of course, the elemental dragons (in dragon form) in living colors [23:55] His armor is also orichulum, but branded with his caste. [23:56] It looks like reinforced breastplate to you. [23:56] * L_Jynaru halts the impromptu sparring and settles down to watch the two evil ones battle it out. Taking mental notes for later. [23:57] They are engaging in a massive bout of coutnerattacks and parries. Sometimes, an attack will hit the twilight only to pass through him, leaving him unharmed, or to reflect off an unarmored part of the body, leaving him unharmed. [23:57] The dawn is almost never hit, but when he is, it is generally just a scratch [23:57] * Vanal winces [23:57] their animas are flaring at a rather constant rate, apparently neither really desires to hit each other. They do lots of stunts, though. Solars a stunt-monkeys. [23:57] [door to the sparring room open or have windows?] [23:57] * L_Jynaru mutters under his breath. [23:58] *whisper* "And we're facing off agians tone of these guys ?" [23:58] One blow looks like it should have sliced the twilight's head clean off, but it doesn't. [23:58] *whisper* "To compare them, Bloom's a pansy up against these two." [23:59] others seem to get stuck in it's anima [23:59] "We hope." [23:59] The dawn is actually scaring the freaking bejeezus out of you [23:59] you doubt you could attack if you had to. [00:00] * Storyteller sets mode: +v Vanal [00:00] Tala, you walk in on the scene. [00:01] *whispers* "Whaddya think. Try to challenge one of them to a handicap bout? Jar whatever's going on out of it's groove?" [00:02] "Um....no." [00:02] * Tala 's eyes widen and she stares in horror at the two yozi-damned demons revealed in all their unholy power and she reflexively takes several steps back out into the hall, but forces herself to compose herself and reenters, and walks towards the others, but cannot stop watching the sparring duo. [00:02] Eventually, they stop, and two others take their place. [00:02] * L_Jynaru chuckles lightly. [00:03] Within moments of their first swing, its obvious that the two, incredibly beautiful (app 5) women are dragon blooded. [00:03] And their clothing is certainly not designed to protect them, despite the reaver daiklaives they weild. [00:03] * Vanal raises an eyebrow [00:03] * Tala 's player wonders why the other 2 dragonblooded didn't have similar reactions [00:04] "now this...I can get used to." [00:04] *whispers* "Isn't this a bit.... familiar?" [00:04] Vanal, Jynaru, you notice Tala [00:04] "Not in the slightest" [00:04] *whispers* "My "special outfit" for the servants during that dream?" [00:04] "They didn't wear a damned thing, Jyn." [00:05] this clothing is obvioulsy designed to creatively show, rather than not show anything at all. [00:05] * Tala walks over to the others [00:05] "and if you respond 'they won't for long' i will consider you a disgrace to my gender for being so damn unsubtle." [00:06] "Hello Tala." [00:06] *whispers* "I know, dammit. THINK. It started with Anathema. We weren't happy. Suddenly, we have nearly naked beautiful women." [00:06] [did the powerful spirit seem as "wrong" as all the others?] [00:06] yes [00:06] "To be honest, I was thinking over women much at all there..." [00:07] *thinking of [00:07] *whispers* "When ELSE did we have things arranged to our desires? This is giving me the shivers, and not in a good way." [00:07] "All of the people here seem very /wrong/. But it's not just the people, the spirits, even the minor spirits which inhabit simple items seem very wrong as well." [00:08] [00:08] no [00:08] "Wrong ? Dead wrong ?" [00:08] "no pun intended." [00:08] "Wyld wrong?" [00:09] "I cannot put a finger on its source. Even the powerful spirit feels the same." [00:09] "I know, Jyn...but this isn't quite as perfect. To begin with, the dream didn't scare the living shit out of me." [00:10] "The ship is damaged. Dragons only know what this would be like if it wasn't." [00:10] "They mentioned going aground...I've got a theory." [00:11] "Oh? Explain." [00:11] "We're in some kind of mystical loop. We're seeing the last few days of this ship for some reason." [00:12] "I bet you 50 jade bits that the island we're headed to is Bloom's little vacation spot for troublesome Dynasts." [00:12] "Good hypothesis. But why is it trying to keep us here? We aren't part of the last days." [00:12] "That the ship hit problems, ran aground...and those aboard died." [00:13] "Maybe whatever is contorlling this is deranged ?" [00:13] "due to the damage to the ship ...it would explain the wrong-ness." [00:13] "But what can we do to break the loop?" [00:13] "No fuckin' clue. I'm a soldier, not a metaphysicist." [00:14] "Fuck up whatever's controlling it. Or wait for the disaster and pray." [00:14] "Who know,s maybe we're still on the rickety ship, unconcious and living this out in a dream-state." [00:15] "Try what we did before? Drop lightning on somebody?" [00:16] "On Maris...no offense buddy." [00:16] "Let's try the warstrider this time ?" [00:16] maris is getting the two girls drunk [00:16] "I didn't mean it literally. Let's just try to change something. [00:16] "For example, our comrade's success there." [00:17] "I don't believe we are in a dream this time." [00:17] "Fuck, this is getting too dman complex." [00:17] "I REALLY hate to say this...but we need Tabius." [00:18] "I told you so." [00:18] * Vanal scowls [00:19] * L_Jynaru 's going to take a moment and concentrate on changing a small detail. Say, one of the girl's hair color.

But my wang is still bigger than yours. [00:21] * Tala also looks for unusual similarities [00:21] * L_Jynaru will attempt now to just wake the hell up. [00:21] (Bah.

[00:53] It's 3 rooms long by 2 wide, which is about the size of a typical inn [00:53] Pearl doors, white jade floors, orichulum walls [00:54] Right. [00:54] "Hey... Tala? I got a plan." [00:54] * Tala looks at Jyn [00:55] "You remember Meridian? And his sword-type thing?" [00:55] "Whatcha wanna bet it'll cut through this damn door?" [00:56] "Ok. And he'll give it to us because-" [00:56] "Because we're gonna jump him!" [00:56] * L_Jynaru smiles really broadly. [00:57] "I believe he is Anathema." [00:58] "Then we get Vanal and Maris and Shakel and Irin to jump him too." [00:58] "And we have seen the power these things have displayed." [00:58] "Hell, I kill Anathema all the time. Just shoot them until they sstop moving, and then shoot them some more."
