I'd have one player as both legs. Unless you're going for slapstick.

Will, I know your not a thief, but your curiosity is going to get you into a lot of trouble ... can't realy speak myself though can I


I'm trying to find my way around this place, you had any luck?

"Yes. Mind if I show you around?"
Will presumably takes Stella (and Meme) on a tour.

((Gold, you can play Nikki. Clay can play Cult, and so on. Basically, within reason the person involved with them most can play the NPCs if they're needed during the week.))
((Noted.
...Now, how to play Nikki...I don't suppose you have the time to give me a few pointers?))

Angel keeps looking for Nikki.
((Hey rag, you still running this?))
((Yes, though it's difficult for me to post during the week.))
((As noted elsewhere, that's fine. Might I request that you let someone else control Nikki and other major NPCs, probably not including the Headmistress, when you can't be online?))

Selina pulls out Harry Potter: The Philosephers Stone.
((Philosopher's. And interesting, somehow I thought it was only called that in Europe.))

With a sudden cry of 'SNAPE KILLS DUMBLEDORE', Darnos goes back to his room. He only pokes his head back in to say 'HEADWIG DIES TOO' before vanishing.
((How would Darnos know?))

That's what a BM costs you from the trader, isn't it?  What is your scale of worth?
Six, actually. And as I have the capacity to manufacture my own...
Something for Basic Goods or another Farm would be useful, though. Something like...oh, Basic Machines.
...Yeah, I guess that would work.

And yeah, some way to nerf Build might be nice, as well as something to buff Production. The Production idea you suggested sounds good; no idea about Build though.

If I had to hazard a guess, most people are putting the priority on combat, since I'm guessing a lot of that will happen.
Yes, but it makes it harder for Angel to be unusually strong and stuff. I had to drop my Combat Claw!
Which actually wasn't that terrible. +1 to damage for 2 points, versus +1 to damage AND attack for 3 points? Especially since I wasn't using that one point of Ninja Magic? But still.

Why does everyone have Combat 2?
Because triffids in my case at least.
*checks sheet*
...Do you mean "In case of triffids"?

Maybe not that long, but an epilogue works.

((Who, me? Grate doesn't know Xan is dead and wouldn't really care. Xan left a bad impression with Grate...))
((What impression is STEPHEN HAWKING leaving with Grate? :P))
(("Annoying/Disturbing but harmless."))
What about Jack? For all the single minute he has met grate.
(("Who's Jack?"))

Quote from: piecewise
(Youtube video of Bolin crying)
((I don't suppose that those two were saying highly traumatizing and confusing things? Also where do you get these videos? And please don't just say Youtube.))



Grate, back at the ship, kicks a wall.
"Ow. That was dumb...almost as dumb as going out with Miss Feyri. What can I do? Glare them to death?"
He formalizes his wandering into a path for the dormitory.
"I'm useless. I can't do anything, unless maybe something gets broken and I need to fix it. And when something breaks...everything always breaks.

"Stupid omnicidal maniacs. Stupid out-of-control space magic stuff."


Before long, Grate reaches the dormitory. He sits on a bed, thinking.

What am I good at? What makes me not dead weight?
Well, I guess I could be a bullet sponge, but I'm not big or threatening enough for anyone to intentionally shoot at me when other people are around, so that's even stupider than it sounded a minute ago.
I guess I could use some kind of techy stuff...
Grate checks his pockets to see how many tokens he has. (I've forgotten, and I don't trust the Morons In Space doc to be up-to-date.)
"I could get what, a Scout Eye? Medicine? Maybe some better armor? There's tons of eyes already, and they're not that useful really. Medicine? I'm no medic. It's better than nothing, but I can't do anything. Especially when people get stabbed in the back with chunks of frozen air or exploded by their own magic sand or blown apart with layshow rifles or something. I guess I could take heads back, maybe get a monorazor, but Head Recovery Guy isn't very useful."

Grate lay on the bed for several minutes, thinking. Then his head turned towards his locker.

"...I could try that. But last time someone played with that, it made things...worse. I need to test it. And for that, I need subjects. Ideally pretty similar, to minimize error and stuff. And I don't think that the others would take a bunch of dangerous pills just to see what happens...maybe I should look into getting lab rats. Like, literal ones. Or maybe guinea pigs, those are cute. Pretty big, though, mice might be better. Lizards don't eat much, though."

"...Who am I kidding, I'll take what I can get."


Head to the AM and Doctor, figuring out the theoretical prices of rats, guinea pigs, mice, lizards, rabbits, zebrafish, octopi, fruit flies, or whatever lab animals are available on the Sword. See if I can figure out some sort of deal to get a bunch for free, or a lifetime supply for a few tokens, or something--maybe I promise the Doc I'll let him have my test subjects after I'm done with them?

I just have one question.

How did Phiali fail in his current venture?

Will locates the others.

"Hey, if any of you see a black cube with a bunch of tiny white-outlined squares on it, like a Rubix cube with way too many bits, let me know, okay? These guys think I stole it...I never even touched it! They saw that!"

I'd rather have 7 Wealth, or at least goods approximately worth such.

Point.

Still not sure what I'd do with the machine, though.

I'm not sure what I'd use it for. Also, you don't seem to have any at the moment...

String-Em-Up is inside. You are outside.
