Check token count, then smoke cigarette. Buy grenades if I do indeed have tokens.
((I am ready, but should have two tokens left for some grenades. Scout eye, 1. Gauss rifle, 2.))
Smoke, incendiary, frag? What kind you want? You can just post a response, it doesn't have to be an action. I'll just teleport everything into your inventory to save time.
Alright. How about the drones' power source? Until they inevitably get shot down, or do they have a time to live? And how much time do they have on their laser?
One more turn question, continue to be ready to go
"They're charged by the base they come with. As long as you bring them in occasionally, they'll be fine."
Try walking and moving my hands. See if any part of my body has a weapon embedded. Look for the Doc and ask about the alterations. Then ask Steve to give me a text file with everything that happened while I was on surgery. If possible, go to the briefing room.
Hey, can you just give me a basic list of the alterations? And are we near Hephaestus? I think I have to be part of the defense team. And Steve, I will need a resume of the briefing.
Ok, to save time, We're gonna do this:
You get kicked back out into the normal ship.
As per alterations:
That sword of yours is pretty special. You should take a look at it. And learn the art of Iaido.
You're massively flexible and fast. Your body can keep up with your brain now.
You've got built in defenses against projectile based long range attacks, though lasers are still a problem.
You've got kinetic amps built into feet, fists, elbows, and knees.
Your basically the height of cyborg sword fighters.
Await mission start. If possible, quickly link up to VR to try out that heavy laser and see how powerfull it is.
Lars dons his new suit. "Generals Jim and Miyamoto, I am ready to go. Let us fulfill our mission in Steve's blessed name. May the gods stand ever with us."
"Very good. We'll be making planetfall shortly, let's hope we won't need any divine intervention."
We'll assume you got loaded from the bowels of the ship, onto a freight elevator and back up into the hanger. Which is basically the only place you fit anymore.
As per that laser; it is distressingly powerful. Swing your hand and watch things neatly slide down in two pieces powerful.
Go to the armory, buy a laser rifle battery, and painkillers. After that, I'm ready to defend the ship.
Name: Derya Bakkal
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Appearance: Petite and lithe, Derya is quiet and mousey. She has shoulder-length, unkempt black hair. She stands at only 5'3, but she's quite dexterous and dosen't let her small frame get in her way. She prefers loose clothes, although her figure isn't anything to hide. She can be a bit timid around new people, always somewhat afraid she'll misread someone as something they aren't. Derya can be a little jumpy when it comes to certain propositions, as her shaky past with relationships leaves her afraid to commit to someone.
Personal information: Derya can be a bit hot-headed, but she's fiercely loyal to her friends. She's tolerant of most kinds of people, so long as they "aren't the back-stabby kind". She sometimes butchers figures of speech, but isn't too bad with it, and while English is not her first language, she's gotten quite good at speaking it well.
Reason assigned to HMRC: Assault on an Officer
Derya's hot-headedness got her into an argument with an officer on her colony, which lead to a physical altercation.
Which is to say, she clawed him half to death before being "sedated" with many, many volts of electricity. She was offered service or shipping out to a mining colony. Die by slow lung failure, or take a chance with the HMRC?
Derya took the HMRC.

Welcome aboard but do me a favor? Zero out those other categories, as in, write in the skills that have zero points. It saves me time.
You know where you start or anything about whats going on?
Uh well, buy a weapon or something because shit's gonna go down fast.
message the doc back, talk to steve
Murder?
"Steve what are we defending from? equipment wise?"
If you kill one of the others I've engineered, you can get engineered. Think of it as a mutagen based highlander.
>Probably mostly standard gauss weapons. Maybe a few heavier things. if no-one complains, and Flint does not place them for us, get some spy cams from mission fun to put on the outside of the door that the SODS will be using to get to our gangway
((Manipulators and Amps don't need line of sight right? just us to know where they are))
Yeah, we'll give you some cameras.
Go to the Armory, stare at the Avatar of War and drooooool. Continue dazedly staring at anything resembling a mecha until whoever runs the Armory inquires as to what the hell I'm doing.
Purchase a Cutting Torch and a Monoatomic Razor.
You buy yourself a cutting torch and a razor, ready to no doubt slaughter the competition.
"Hmm... Do I rely on the torch, and buy an explosive, or buy a backup melee weapon...
I like bombs and all, but I like cutting things more, so... yeah. I'll just slice things for money and buy one of those totally awesome mecha-suits.
Quick voidsuit test, grab a chair from the wrec room, pop into voidspace, drop chair, pop into realspace, head to the opposite side of the ship, pop back into voidspace, and search for chair. If chair not found, pop out, head back to original location, pop in, then search for chair. If chair is found, pod self. If chair still not found, ponder possibles reasons, then pod self.
((Whew. Test is to see if voidspace is reset when I leave, or if it remains constant.))
Your test shows that you can indeed leave objects like that chair in the void and navigate with them. It also shows that space does seem to be compressed in some manner. The chair is much closer to you in the void then it is in real space.
((Hey guys, if I ever happen to get suddenly banned from the forums, the most likely thing is that I was using a racial slur common in the hip-hop world that has been deemed "derogatory" on here.))
But TCM, how can they get mad at you? You're black! Just like I'm a hot asian woman.

Hey, I was just quoting lines from a disney musical.
Wear bone armor over exo-suit, idly twirl reiterpallasch, be ready for combat.
Bone armor on, Reshpatcherate..pallshchie twirled.
Grab weapons and prepare for departure
Locked and loaded. Vin Diesel has been alerted to do your voice over.
Having thanked Jim for the cutlass, Jobasio looked askance at his dress-wearing gauss rifle.
"...Whig, my dear," he arched an eyebrow, "as lovely as you look, I think you may be taking things a little far. Clothing might impede your primary function, after all-- that is, shooting things that try to kill me. Perhaps we can just stick with that lovely paintjob I gave you for now, hmm?"
>Tactfully veto the 'dress' idea. Undress my gauss rifle, store the mystery dress in my locker. Promise to let her wear it in peacetime.
>Then ask the AM for a bright, royal purple (The colour of House Hootzal, or something) sash to carry my new cutlass in.
Edit: Get a matching ribbon for Whig, too!
>Count tokens.
4 tokens.
Sash and ribbon combo attained.
And I no longer have that -1 in handiwork for men.txt
Buy that shield and I'm ready for the mission.
"Sweet, sweet alchemy! Let's go!"
Add spoon, Lightning Dragon Viperfish blood (use up about half of available quantity) and a magnet to machine - get pill. Give said pill to Lightning Dragon Viperfish, dancing to where'er he may be.
You give the Magnet, blood and spoon pill to Zeus-fish.
Eat pill machine pills. All of them.
You eat the pill.
The metallic scales on your extremities thicken and expand to the point that you now have giant metal clubs on each limb.
Your hair morphs into tiny, wriggling tentacles.
I'm Going to merge the Man and Idiots in space files into something that makes sense to anyone but me. Then I'll do the intro to the mission. Hey, Milno and crew, you're gonna be in the smaller mission thread, so head over there when you're ready.
