Victor asks the Doctor "What turned that HMRC member into a demonic cidada? Should we try to retrieve a flesh sample if we have to kill it?"
He checks his wristpad every so often to check up on Ivan through his turret unit.

((Ahhhhh, I love inconclusive statistics gathering.

You'll want to use the table tags to get everything to line up, though it is more effort than just typing everything out and tabbing it around. It's that 3x3 grid button below Font Face and to the far left of the spoiler button. The td tags are for items in a colum, the tr for a new row.

Like so   takes some copy+pasting
Also pie   Derp
))
((Alright, I will try to use that from now on (and I figure it out). And there will be no pie-abominations. Those heretics who turned away from the monouse of simple tables will  be crushed and (insert favorite torture here):P))

The fuck is going on here? I never posted that...

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

((Well, that could have been better. Could have been worse though, so can't complain. Also, the hand laser battery is only good for 50 seconds anyways - I never got around to feeding it off the generator - so unless this means that the generator just cuts out periodically, and may fizzle out unexpectedly during firing, I think I'm good for now. Still, it's cause for some rebuilding later.))

Anton frowns at the generator. In his experience, little flaws like these never meant anything good in the long run. He looks the unit over thoughtfully for a while, then sets it aside with a sigh. "Well, nothing to it for now. First pancake is always spoiled, as they say. Now, let's get the rest of this hooked up.."

As he sets to work on the laser glove and spark gap assembly, Anton speaks out into the air, talking to Steve.
"Steve, I was wondering. This... Ivan, the mutant. On a scale of "scared little girl" to "main battle tank", how susceptible would you say he is to electric shock?" He stops for a moment and looks up, again looking for something to speak at. "I'd just like to know whether I should shoot on sight or run and hide, if you know what I mean."

Examine generator to see if it can be later remade without requiring more parts.

Consult the saved schematic and continue assembly of the Red Hand.

Converse with Steve.

"Alright. Thats good. Now, I know you have a kill switch. They wouldn't let you run around without one. Can you activate it?"

Open beer, take a sip, then pass it to the demon.

((Is this okay, or should I build something more conventional?

Name:  Vichislav (Vich) Freidberg (Thanks Toaster and others.)
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Age: 46
Gender: Male
Appearance: 1.97m. For the most part, a pretty ordinary appearance of a person who had good nutrition in the childhood, and [I am very bad at writing physical descriptions].
       Facial appearance: It can still be seen that his was once it was a good-looking face. That was before his lips and his nose were cut off. His ears were cut to half their original size. To add to all this, he is missing both of his eyes, which by the scars of his face look like they burned out with hot iron. He emits a constant clicking sound from his mouth as he walks, stopping only in conversations. He can lift his scalp at will.

Personal information:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Reason assigned to HMRC: Volunteer

Strength:
Dexterity:
Endurance:
Charisma:   10
Intelligence:
Willpower:   
(10 points TBD when mission starts)

Speech: 3
Auxiliary systems: 1
[1 point TBD]

Retired Spy (Grunt): +1 Speech, -1 Conventional Weapons   [+2 against torture?]
  Unique features: Blind, visual parts of brain damaged, moves by echolocation and has an MK system built for it.

Well, here's my first character. Very unsuited for HMRC. I don't think he will last long))

Name: TBD (myself? Any ideas how I should name him?)
((how to name space elves:
mash keyboard for about 5-15 characters
add vowel if none extant
attempt to pronounce, if literally unspeakable, you have named your character, if speakable, restart.

how to name space humans:
consonant, vowel, consonant, consonant, vowel, consonant.
attempt to pronounce, if literally unspeakable, restart. if speakable, you have named your character.

any questions?))

((I don't think heating something that is right above us to a ridiculous degree is very smart. Worst case scenario we become +metal statues+. This is a finely crafted metal statue. It is encrusted with sharkmist and HMRC. On the item is an image of HMRC and Pancaek. Pancaek is laughing. The HMRC is melting. The artwork relates to the encasing of the HMRC in metal by Pancaek during the Mission of Many People.))

Or if you want a normal name, this.))

((I was looking less for a RNG (I can find those myself,) and more for an actual name. Thearpox itself, was taken out of an RNG, so I'm perfectly fine with going naming myself after myself. But if someone has an actual name appropriate for my character (example: Steve for computer, Jim for tin man, and so on) I would appreciate it. Otherwise (most probably) I am just going with myself. This problem with me picking it, is simply that I hate all my choices and will probably spend 8 hours on it. Sorry to make work for you.))

((How the fungus can we suggest a name appropriate for your character? What do you mean "Appropriate"? Nobody has "appropriate" names. If anything, Steve could have been better named Dave, as a throwback to Odyssey 2001. The nomenclature is not set. There are no names but the ones we make for ourselves. The nomenclature is not set.))

((If you don't know, don't bother. The point is, I don't like choosing names. I could spend a lot of time explaining how my brain works and doesn't, but I don't think it is worth it. Maybe someone will understand what I mean, maybe not. I'm fine either way. Don't worry about it.))

((The big difference here, is that I'm not asking to be a superhuman avatar-dressed macho. I'm asking to be blind. No one tried that before. Whether PW allows it or not is his call (he could technically just have the doctor fix me three turns after my awakening). It's worth a shot either way, even if it is just a negative confirmation.))
