* Mary_jane`^ walks over to the computer and calls off the alarm
<AlcarGM> The alarm goes off. You have a lot of messages asking "WTF was that?!"
<AlcarGM> only in politer terms.
* Mary_jane`^ stands at her computer for an hour or so typing up a reasonable explenation without actually saying what it was... while not lieing about it either =p
<AlcarGM> .. Ah! Politics.
<Mary_jane`^> exactly
- Quote 8404
-
<AlcarGM> You've spent a week at Camelot, fixing up the areas, trying to find hackers willing to help you, putting out press releases and bleeding money like reformed AA members at the bar come closing time. The first match is scheduled for tomorrow, assuming you get anything who can acutally fight with a sword fighting in it.
<Mary_jane`^> tsch, I am so charging for advertising and addmission
<Mary_jane`^> I'm going to make a proffit off of this mofo if it kills me ;p
<AlcarGM> So far most of the applicants have been actors, aspiring kids just off the farm who've come to find their destiny accompanied by a wise mentor who got drunk, sold them to Hutt Trading Co. and buggered off into the great unknown, a few mercenaries who are promising if you want people killed, and SPCA members :p
<AlcarGM> You may die to regret those words :)
<AlcarGM> YOu also have a few people showing up thinking this is some kinbd of game, and asking to be knights and wizards, like in "That VR game, you know? The new one: Legends of Zorrelda."
- Quote 8405
-
<AlcarGM> Lancelot: "On a minor note, the castle has no armoury."
<Mary_jane`^> "Seriously? What's there?"
<AlcarGM> Lancelot: "An empty room."
<Mary_jane`^> "Oh! that's right. It's in hell."
<AlcarGM> he blinks. "Pardon?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Arthur has this weapon fetish."
<Mary_jane`^> "Arthur has this weapon fetish."
<AlcarGM> Lancelot gives you the blank look of someone who considered a single armoury amateur fetish, at best.
- Quote 8406
-
<AlcarGM> The dwarven mine is rather easy to find. Dwarves may be masters at hiding their actual homes, bt the giant smoke stacks and mining machinery tend to give it away
<Mary_jane`^> "Aha!"
* Mary_jane`^ walks over to the mines then
<AlcarGM> You walk over, and find several dwarves milling arounr outside. ONe of them is working, the rest observing. Obvious the dwaven version of city employees :p
<Mary_jane`^> "Uhm, excuse me." To the busy one =p
<AlcarGM> Dwarf:: "Hi ho, hi ho, it;s off to - " in a deep baritone, then spots you and says, in a woman's voice. "Err. hello. Hi."
<Mary_jane`^> "Uhm, hi. I'm looking to obtain some weapons and armor?"
<AlcarGM> The dwarf frowns. "Appointment?"
<AlcarGM> The head dwarf frowns at you, then turns as pale as someone under a beard can. "She - does not need one."
<Mary_jane`^> "Oh ah.. I need to schedule one." Nodding. "Is now a good time?"
<AlcarGM> The head dwarf nods eagerly, so much so that his dwarf issue helmet fals off, hits the ground, and cracks oipen. You spot the "made on Taiwan IV" sticker before he picks it back up. "Certainly, ma'am. What do you require?"
- Quote 8407
-
* alcar is now known as AlcarGM
<AlcarGM> Were you planning to do anything special chatting with the generals and Lance?
<Mary_jane`^> you mean like suddenly bust out a knife and kill everybody?
<AlcarGM> besides the obvious.
- Quote 8408
-
<Mary_jane`^> "Are you a spy?"
<AlcarGM> <Lancelot> "Hmm?"
<Mary_jane`^> "A spy, from that dwarf?"
<AlcarGM> <Lancelot> "I've never met the dwarf before, so no."
<Mary_jane`^> "I see."
<AlcarGM> <Lancelot> "Why do you ask?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Because there are some things about you that resemble him."
<AlcarGM> <Lancelot> "I do not come from somewhere Else, remake planets, or am a dwarf. Given the legends of dwarf size, we may be similarly endowed in one respect, but I hardly think that merits comment."
<Mary_jane`^> "No, that's not it..."
<AlcarGM> (( "It's not?!" ))
<AlcarGM> <Lancelot> "Are you sure?"
- Quote 8409
-
* Mary_jane`^ goes to take a shower and do the same, waiting for the end of the day.
<Mary_jane`^> "Hey Tad..."
<AlcarGM> The day comes to an end, for lack of something better to do like take a romp though the woods and rape twilight.
<AlcarGM> Tad: "Yes?" sleepily, waking.
<Mary_jane`^> "Let's go visit the Fate."
<AlcarGM> Tad: "..... uhm .... why?"
<Mary_jane`^> "You know that feeling you get after you've been alone for a long time, and then suddenly something new happens?"
<AlcarGM> Tad: "Being alive?"
<Mary_jane`^> "That's why..."
- Quote 8410
-
<AlcarGM> Clotho is busy crying, ignoring you. Lachesis is hugging her and Atropos just nods, walking over to you and looking calm and unconcerned now
<Mary_jane`^> "You could smile once."
<AlcarGM> Atropos: "I try not to. It frightens people."
- Quote 8411
-
<AlcarGM> Atropos: "one such as you hardly has to. You - are strange, you know that?" she cocks her head, like a bird, studying you. "I see chaos in you. With a wing. It makes.... no sense, but more sense than it should."
<Mary_jane`^> "I AM chaos. Well I try to be. The wing, I dunno..."
<AlcarGM> (( :p ))
<Mary_jane`^> (( I'm not fond of breaking the fifth wall, but as long as this is as far as it goes whatever ))
- Quote 8412
-
<AlcarGM> Clotho: "You - " *sniff* "you're NOT Chaos. The dragon saw it, but won't remember. It's .... *wrong*, and alive, and it hate us."
<Mary_jane`^> (( God dammit alcar if you bring amber into this I swear I'll stop playing right now =p ))
<AlcarGM> (( LOL! Oh? :p ))
<Mary_jane`^> (( If I want to play amber, I'll play amber. This is risus ))
<Mary_jane`^> I'm not joking about the amber thing. I'm very sore from the last time I played the world and I think it's a cheap world to begin with
- Quote 8413
-
<Chaos`^> anyway, i guess you'll have to redo your plot =p
<tatterdemalion> which one? :)

<Chaos`^> the damned amber one

<Mary_jane`^> aha!
<Mary_jane`^> I know what I'll do that will make your day hell
<AlcarGm> oh? :p
<Mary_jane`^> I'll go to heaven!
<AlcarGm> What makes you think you aren't already there? :p
<Mary_jane`^> God hasn't shown up and threatened to do bodily harm?
* Sparkie is busy.
<Mary_jane`^> cute
* Sparkie is that, too
- Quote 8415
-
<Mary_jane`^> "Perhaps you were more discrete than I was."
<Mary_jane`^> "The one thing I haven't learned in five hundred years is that I should only pick the battles I know I can win."
<AlcarGm> Jesus: "I praded into a town on an ass to raise a prick from the dead I hadn't even liked. I was many things: discrete was never one of them."
<Sparkie> You mean the ones I'm not allowed to use dice for :(
<Mary_jane`^> exactly
<Mary_jane`^> "Yes well, there's something to be said about forgiveness as well."
<AlcarGm> Jesus: "You have to allow yourself to be forgiven first."
<Mary_jane`^> "That's Arthur's shortcomming as well."
<Mary_jane`^> "I should go find him. It was fun talking to you."
<AlcarGm> Jesus smiles slightly. "And that of all honest men, I suspect." He nods to you. "Merry part."
<Mary_jane`^> "Don't hesitate to say hi next time you see me"
- Quote 8416
-
<Mary_jane`^> "I think you had been torchering yourself since Merlin took control of your actions."
<AlcarGm> Arthur: "I like to think he did. But I let him, at some point. I agreed with him."
<Mary_jane`^> "Indeed."
<AlcarGm> Arthur: "The funny thing is that i feel sorry for him, now. Sometimes. He had his own burdens, and I never noticed."
<Mary_jane`^> "Merlin's only burden was his quest for vengence against the god who wronged him."
<AlcarGm> Arthur: "Sometimes burdens look a lot like gifts."
<AlcarGm> he shakes his head. "I am not sure who wronged him, if anyone. Or myself. But I let him seduce me with promises of power."
<Mary_jane`^> "He sought power, so that he may some day... I don't know, punish god? Resurect his lover?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Power can change a man."
- Quote 8417
-
<Mary_jane`^> "Indeed. Lancelot does not need a king. He is no longer a knight."
<AlcarGm> Arthur: "He need *something*."
<Mary_jane`^> "He needs a friend."
<AlcarGm> Arthur: "..... Oh."
<AlcarGm> He considers that. "I could try it?"
<Mary_jane`^> "I'm sure you could. How hard would the urge to order him to do something be, though?"
<AlcarGm> Arthur: "Probably, very. We were friends, yes. But he was always so ... intense. I thinkhe scaredme, somewhat, even before he went mad."
* Mary_jane`^ nods
<Mary_jane`^> "Your curiosity is one of your downfalls. Even with Galahad, your question was more than just in passing. You were considering actually telling him to stay."
<AlcarGm> Arthur pauses, the considers that. "Perhaps. I test people," with a shrug
<Mary_jane`^> "So what makes you think you would be successul at being Lancelot's friend, but not his king?"
<AlcarGm> Arthur:" "Because he scares me."
<AlcarGm> (( *snickers* ))
- Quote 8418
-
<Mary_jane`^> "Where's Nora?"
<AlcarGm> Satan: "Nora?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Nora, the half-succubus lady?"
<AlcarGm> Satan: "Oh. Her."
<AlcarGm> Satan: "Last I knew, having an argument."
<Mary_jane`^> "Where?"
<AlcarGm> Satan: "Purgatory. With .. her ancestor, I believe."
<Mary_jane`^> "I don't suppose you could make the door go there?"
<AlcarGm> Satan smiles at that. "No. It's .. outside of Hell."
<Mary_jane`^> "Didn't think so."
<AlcarGm> Satan: "I throw the rejects there."
* Mary_jane`^ hmms and just uses power to go to where Nora is
<AlcarGm> Satan: "Like Peter. He was always losing the keys to the front gate.... "
- Quote 8419
-
* Mary_jane`^ hmms and just uses power to go to where Nora is
<AlcarGm> (( this could get.. awkward.... ))
<Mary_jane`^> (( Why do you say that? ))
<AlcarGm> You vanish, and appear in the middle of a cross between a battlefield and an orgy. Perhaps it's both. Living and dead bodies, corpuplating, decomposing, killing and loving in some mad passion play out of Stephen King's head.
<AlcarGm> (( Well, Alcar's head, but Stephen King sounded better. ))
<Mary_jane`^> "This is Awkward."
- Quote 8420
-
* Mary_jane`^ consults the three experts on magic in her head "Any suggestions?"
<AlcarGm> Tad: "..... drag her out of here NOW before she does something stupid?"
<AlcarGm> Tad: "Stupider?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Stupider isn't a word... And I can't drag her out until I find her soul. How do you get a soul back?"
<AlcarGm> Snake #1: "She's still herself."
<AlcarGm> Tad: "Well, it *should* be a word."
<Mary_jane`^> "A word?"
<AlcarGm> Tad: "Of course! If we can think it, it has to be real. Somewhere. Or somewherer!"
<Mary_jane`^> "The word or the soul?"
<AlcarGm> Snake #2: "I fear my brother is right."
<AlcarGm> Tad: "The word, of course."
<AlcarGm> Tad: "Are you feeling okay?"
<Mary_jane`^> "What kind of word? I can't let her leave here without her soul... I would have to kill her."
<AlcarGm> Tad: "Stupider!"
<Mary_jane`^> "IT'S NOT!"
* Mary_jane`^ clenches her teeth "About the soul?"
- Quote 8421
-
* Mary_jane`^ looks around for a gate to heaven =p
<AlcarGm> Ypou don't see one. You do see barbed wire in the sdistance. and shapes manning lkines, with high powered assault rifles. You can See they are angels. it seems heaven is thataway. And .. under heavy guard.
<AlcarGm> Probably Homeland Security.
- Quote 8422
-
<Mary_jane`^> "That's not the point. the point is that you decided to become a demon, and you know what that means."
<AlcarGM> Nora: "I did not decide to. It just happened."
<Mary_jane`^> "Well I am going to see what I can do about reversing that."
<AlcarGM> Nora: "And no, I have no idea what that means. I don't think anyone does. Your point?"
<AlcarGM> She blinks, then narrows her eyes. "What I am is *my* business, MJ. Not yours."
<Mary_jane`^> "It is when you force me to promis to kill you otherwise."
<AlcarGM> Nora: "Excuse me?"
<Mary_jane`^> "You don't remember? You made me promise that if you ever become a full demon that I was to kill you."
<AlcarGM> You can fee her power like a dark, rolling cloud of energy inside he. There's a LOT of it.
<AlcarGM> Nora: "Actually, I don't. And guess what? I changed my mmind."
<Mary_jane`^> "You can't change your mind when you're a demon. It doesn't work that way."
<AlcarGM> Nora: "Duh! I just did."
- Quote 8423
-
<AlcarGM> Nora: "I am still Nora," firmly.
<AlcarGM> No one answers you.
<Mary_jane`^> "Nora the demon."
<Mary_jane`^> "Follow me."
<AlcarGM> Nora: "And you wonder why I never answered your message."
- Quote 8424
-
<Mary_jane`^> "Now where is Tyler..."
* Mary_jane`^ looks up at the ladder and shrugs, jumping on it and climbing it =p
<AlcarGM> You leap up a mile and land on the alien Jacob's Ladder. In direct defiance of the laws of cosmic narrative, nothing at all interesting happens.
- Quote 8425
-
<Mary_jane`^> "Gabe, how are you at making souls?"
<AlcarGM> Gabe: "Making souls?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Nora is short one."
<AlcarGM> Gabe looks at Nora a little more. "Oh. Do you want one?"
<AlcarGM> Nora: "What, like for a ornnament?"
<Mary_jane`^> "What? Ofcourse she does!"
<AlcarGM> Nora: "Why? I had one. I lost it. It's not like losing car keys."
<Mary_jane`^> "Right, it's like losing the car."
<AlcarGM> (( nice :P ))

<alcar> "Oh, right, a place to sleep." *waves hand*

<Mary_jane`^> "Being hunted just for your power is also a price, but it doesn't relate to you personally."
<AlcarGM> Gabe: "Think about it. Things - happen around you, MJ, that don't around anyone else. You've been a fulcrum, and a catalyst. Maybe that's price enough.
<Mary_jane`^> "I just thought it was bad luck."
<AlcarGM> He grins. "Bad luck?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Well yeah, all these things just start happening around me... And I meet the strangest people just by sitting down..."
<AlcarGM> Gabe: "I'm not sure it's all bad."

<AlcarGM> AI: "Radical. Okay, any preference on how to stop it? Siphon into nearby universe? General dispersal? Absorption? Other?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Define Absorbtion."
<AlcarGM> AI: "I, personallyt, recommend channeling it into a tantric sex spells."
<AlcarGM> AI: "Self-powered by assault. The most unstable but cheapest method."
<Mary_jane`^> "I'd like to know a little about it, but I want something more stable."
<AlcarGM> AI: "Not proof against all forms of energy attack. Warranty is only valid in A+ conntinuums."
<AlcarGM> AI: "Righty-o. Basic stopping power. Solar level good? Great. Basic absorption so you don't melt local planets, I assume? More environmentally Friendly. You'll get a SpellCo inside label on your spell."

<Mary_jane`^> "Ok, then the games will have to be tomorow. We'll start at 5am, I can hold it 8 hours after the shield falls."

<AlcarGM> He nods. "They'll get through a planet shield probably before the 24 are up. Whoever *they* are, unless they run out of funds first."
* Mary_jane`^ sighs
<Mary_jane`^> "Assuming Gabe could hold them for a half hour, we may be able to hold it off indeffinately, unless this was just a small sample."
* Mary_jane`^ taps her finger on her hip "Unless...."
<AlcarGM> He raises an eyebrow
<Mary_jane`^> "Alright, as soon as the games start, the solar system will disapear. That should stop the attacks durring the games."
<AlcarGM> Lancelot staresd at you. "Is that all?"
<Mary_jane`^> "What do you mean?"
<AlcarGM> Lancelot: "Just disappearing it?" dryly
<Mary_jane`^> "I was going to ask Gabe if he would move it, too. Why?"
<AlcarGM> Lancelot smiles. "Good. You'lllneed to reroutre all media signals to come and go from here, to be safe."

<Mary_jane`^> "Let me see..."
* Mary_jane`^ feels for the staff
<AlcarGM> The power flows into you sluggishly.
* Mary_jane`^ feels for the judgements
<AlcarGM> You can feel .. something Judgement seems. .skewed? Out of shape? You're not sure, but part of it isn't ..there anymore, and it's trying to compensate, and failing.

* Maxx`-` shrugs setting the snake skin aside and continuing on with the head dress of all grass
<AlcarGM> You manage to make some using grass blades and bits of the palm trees.
* Maxx`-` puts it on and stands tall and proud
<AlcarGM> "What are you doing?" the snake asks pleasantly, having gotten back into it's skin. It's a diamondback, the diamonds glittering under the sun like small stars, or a woman's smile when she becomes your best friend for ever and ever until debt do you part

Amy looks better, and the other wolves look almost as bad as fenrir. two of them lying on the ground while two Amy, in human shape, is bandaging them and cursing under her breath.

<AlcarGM> fenrir spins the moment you enter, a deep growl rumbling - then relaxes, slightly. "You arrive like a storm crow, don't you?" he says, his one open eye cold and very, very angry.
<Mary_jane`^> "We have to leave."
<AlcarGM> Fenrir blinks. The other wolves cower, and Amy blanches. "Leave?" he says, gently. The two wounded wolves try and expose their throats.
* Mary_jane`^ nods
<AlcarGM> Snake2: "Is it too late to pretend I'm not with you?" under his breath.

* Mary_jane`^ thinks and looks at him with her truthsight
<AlcarGM> He shrugs lightly. "It was nothing."
<Mary_jane`^> "It was more than nothing, Lance... If it's not what's bothering you, then what is?"
<AlcarGM> Oh, it's bothering him. It was an old thing, what he considered a vain childish moment, only to realize, thanks you you, it had been much more than that. he didn't like knowing that about himself, at all, and, if he would not consider it dishonourbale, would probably have kiled Arthur, and then you. Or tried to. Right now honour is the only think upholding him, and he's brittle as egg shell undernreath that
<AlcarGM> Lancelot: "I am fine."
* Mary_jane`^ blinks
<AlcarGM> The truly scary part? he believes that :p

<AlcarGM> you have whatever treasures you collected while dumpster diving :)
<Maxx`-`> hmmmm... dumpster treasure

<AlcarGM> no particle accelerator?
<Maxx`-`> no, but could i have botched nukular bomb?

<AlcarGM> The town remains still and quiet, as if you'd wandered into some fallout movie about the Last Man On Earth (Well, The Last Man And The Dude With The Lamp On His Head). A car or two does pass, and you see some people playing in a park you pass, but no one says hello. They just stop doing things and stare at you.
* Rich` forgot he was still wearing the suit and decides he should have taken the time to change... ah well.
<AlcarGM> (( into the black one. With sunglasses man! ))
* AlcarGM thinks it figures that he runs an MIB game and not a single PC dresses up as one.

<AlcarGM> You reach the wood without incident, unless you choose to start one. The woods are run by the Collins family, and whose woods these are you definitely know, since there are lots of NO TRESSPASSING signs, and the woods are fenced off with barbed wire.
<AlcarGM> On the plus side, since they're into sustainable agriculture and not clear cutting, it's difficult to tell that they forest has been mined of trees for a good two decades.
<AlcarGM> A police car, local, is parked beside closed off road, empty and locked.
<Maxx`-`> (ok done moving large objects)
<Rich`> (( they own the entire woods? ))
<AlcarGM> (( Yup. Probably the whole county, technically. ))
<AlcarGM> (( lumber, mining, etc. ))
<Rich`> (( bastards. ))
<AlcarGM> (( What, can't people enjoy the fruits of others people's hard work on thweir behalf living sweatshop-style so they can prosper?! ))

<AlcarGM> the firepit is empty except for some sticks in it that form the letter G. The ashes for the greek letter Gamma as well behind the sticks.
* Maxx`-` looks about the area for any other signs of inteligance
<AlcarGM> You don't see anyone or thing else here., Just you, and the rain which is slowly letting up
* Maxx`-` gets on out of the area and heads in a random direction
<AlcarGM> You walk out. Ten minutes later the rain stops and the sun comes out and begins baking the ground, which steams a little. Shortly, you see a figure in the distance. An old man casrring a watering can that is also, at the same time, a staff he is leaning on.
* Maxx`-` walks on up to the old man as if it where nothing
<AlcarGM> The old man nods to you, a door behind him that isn't actually there. "Bright the day."
<Maxx`-`> "Dark the night"
<Rich`> (( jeez, how many drugs is Maxx on right now, anyways? :P ))
<AlcarGM> (( do you want to know? :p ))

<MechaBlue> The real-time DMing allows for the situation where the halfling decides to dry-hump the black pudding

<AlcarGM> A few people watch you. The men, recognizing you, go silent andgradually the crowd quiets, sensing Something Is Happening.
<AlcarGM> Tad plops down inside your head, muttering about wizards.
* Mary_jane`^ looks at her que card for the names of the teams and the watchamacallit
<Mary_jane`^> (( As long as it isn't a boojum I'm ok ))
<AlcarGM> The Snarks and the Jabberwock.
<Mary_jane`^> LoL
* Kuth flies down from the sky, currently being a rather large asain-style (i.e. mostly snakelike) dragon with pale-colored metallic scales. By rather large, I mean about the size of a large battleship.
<Mary_jane`^> "Ladies and gentlemen. It's time for tonight's Main Event!"
<AlcarGM> You sense Power above you... diminshed, but Kuth is... senseable even when drained of power.
<AlcarGM> A lot of people look up. Cameras whirl and flash.
<AlcarGM> Two of the mercnaries gape, one of them saying "if that's the main event, I quit!"

<Mary_jane`^> (( Give awards to who exactly? ))
<AlcarGM> (( the jabberwock? :p ))

<AlcarGM> but the winners get awards!

<AlcarGM> Okay. The ship gets filled with ... err... do you really want to fit an entire pack? :)
<Mary_jane`^> What else am I going to do with them?
<Mary_jane`^> if I leave them here I'll be throwing them to the wolves!
<Kuth> (( it'll be cosy. ))
<Mary_jane`^> plus space ships are big.. I'm sure there's a big cargo area for a big pack
<Kuth> (( not all spaceships are big :) ))
<AlcarGM> Lesse ... Nora the demon. Tyler/Jacob the half angel. Fenrir, his daughter Amy, and 200 wolves, plus his mate. King Arthur. Lancelot, Merlin, Gabe, Kiesha, MJ, Kuth, Tad, Suzie, AND Hobbie
<Mary_jane`^> Well i'm sure this one is
<AlcarGM> I *think* that's everyone :p
<Mary_jane`^> 200!?
<AlcarGM> yes.
<Kuth> (( roflmao ))

<Mary_jane`^> If Murder is older than creation, as excalibur would lead me to believe, then doesn't it have a counterpart, one I can use?
<AlcarGM> lol. Possibly Life itself :p
<Mary_jane`^> damnit
<Mary_jane`^> I mean a weapon I can use =p
<AlcarGM> you gots one :)
<Mary_jane`^> a life?
<Mary_jane`^> no i don't
<AlcarGM> Err. Okay, then.
<Mary_jane`^> I need one
<Mary_jane`^> i guess you might consider sitting at the computer every night playing rpg's a life
<Mary_jane`^> most everyone seems to have gotten one
<Mary_jane`^> a life that is
<AlcarGM> heh
<Mary_jane`^> I knew it would happen sometime, but I didn't expect it to be so... anti-climactic

<Mary_jane`^> oh!

<AlcarGm> Sherrif Patterson: "What drugs are you not on?"
* Maxx`-` shrugs
<Maxx`-`> "7 or 8, few greens few blues"
<AlcarGm> Patterson: "....."
<AlcarGm> Patterson: "Would you happen to know what tore his head off?"
* Maxx`-` shrugs
<Maxx`-`> "Tree branch for all I know."
<AlcarGm> He does not quite grind his teeth together. "And?"
<Maxx`-`> "And?"
<AlcarGm> Patterson: "DO you want to examine the body?"
<AlcarGm> (( hello? MIB agent? Dead fellow agent? ))
* Maxx`-` shrugs
<Maxx`-`> "Might as well, been a while sence I saw a freash one"
* Maxx`-` heads for the body bag to take a look at it
<AlcarGm> The body is, indeed, Kenny. Sans head. as in, torn off. Quite cleanly, though not by a blade.
<AlcarGm> Still in costume, dead at least 8 hours. No flies on the corpse, which is odd
* Maxx`-` eyes it a bit more in detail "On realy pissed off Ant eater did this if you ask me"
<AlcarGm> The sherrif stares at you some more, then lowers his voice. "If this is some fuckin' F-B-I lingo, you can take it and shove it so far up your ass you'll need a team of hamsters to dig it out!"

<AlcarGm> A man is standing by it dressed in brown and green and csrrying a shotgun. He's smoking a cigar and eyeing the spot as if waiting for something.
<Maxx`-`> "See anything strange last night?"
<AlcarGm> The man looks up into the tree, surprised, but doesn't raise his gun. He leans back against a tree. "Aside from you?"
<Maxx`-`> "Was I out here last night??"
<AlcarGm> Man: "You're in the trees. I heard 'em in the trees last one. One fell here. So I'm waiting."
<Maxx`-`> "Who's them?"
<AlcarGm> Man: "The vampires. I see them, leaping through trees. Like rabbits. So I put garlic bulbs in the trees, and one fell. I'm waiting for later, when everone goes away. Then, well -" he spits. "Then we'll see."
<Maxx`-`> "This i've gotta see..."
* Maxx`-` sits down some place semi out of the way his back to a tree
<AlcarGm> The man looks a bit taken aback. "Almost no one believes me. But I've seen them. I've seen them rise the earth to breakdance to disco music under the moonlight."
<Maxx`-`> "Coreogrify any good?"
<AlcarGm> The man stares at you supsiciously, then shakes his head. "Worse 'n drunken hillbillies shooting up stop signs."

<Kuth> "Where's the shield generator?"
<AlcarGM> AI: "Behind the crew compartments. It looks like a gas tank," helpfully.
<AlcarGM> AI: "We do take leaded, though."
* Kuth flies out of the cockpit and tries to find it.
<AlcarGM> Kuth - it's not hard to find, though you have to rap a few wolves unconscious who've managed to get though air ducts and into the crew area to play some wolf version of street hockey It does, indeede, look like a gas tank. If a gas tank was the size of a smal apartment.
<AlcarGM> The ship shudders slightly.
* Kuth looks it over, considering... then just shrugs, separates himself from his body, and flies inside of it. He then tries to enhance the power with magic, and build up for a pulse of power to try to destroy, damage, or at least repulse the entities.
<AlcarGM> Hrm. Effective...
<AlcarGM> You fly in, merging with the <insert technobabble here> energy drive. It feels like taking a warm bath, really.
<AlcarGM> You can feel the energy shield now, like a pale aura around the ship, changing to become, well, part of you.
<AlcarGM> AI: "General warning: We are invalidating the warranty."
<Mary_jane`^> "What warranty? you're over 500 years old, your warranty expired!"
<AlcarGM> The AI is, of course, ignoring you :p
