Subject: not really
remeber we were going to discuss what we wanted to ask and then have each player respond and you and I would both have the info. I've pinned nothing on you. It is my fault it didn't get done yet. I just wanted to know if anyone wanted us to still continue that way.

Subject: Engines are priming...
Ok folks! I plan on getting the game started probably before the weekend. I'm going to try to do posts on the weekend so people have the week to get their posts in. If this doesn't work out then I will let you know when posts from me will come out. I had originally planned for the Captain to do a sort of interview with each of you. This was to be an effort to get to know the personality of your character and get a bit more background. This info would be know by the captain and me only. I was hoping to use this to gear the game toward the players a bit. Anyway! I will start the game regardless, but if anyone would still be interested in doing this please let me know. Thanks to everyone for being patient with me.

Subject: saving the girl
"I'm glad the two of you showed up. Even with my equipment it would have been hard to do this alone."
Quintin started walking back toward where Seira was pinned. "She is the captain's daughter. Name is Seira. Not really sure how she got here. Most of her wounds seem fairly minor. She has a few broken bones but nothing that couldn't be set by the doc. She passed out just beore I got to her. I'm guessing the pain got to her. I figure it will be easier to revive her after we get her out."
Quintin started showing Lance the door which was pinning the girl. He started pointing to a few points on the door and motioning in specific direction. "I'm thinking about cutting here , across here. From this point to here. One final cut here up to this point. I think that should break it up enought to move and get her out. You see any better way to do it?"
Quintin knew they had to get her out and finish their original task. "Once we have her out of there I can stabilize her and revive her. Rosettia or myself can stay with her and the other can acoompany you to engineering. I think we should be getting back to the others soon."

Subject: Curiosity killed the .... valshari?
Airion watched as the half-orc worked on the lock to his cell. Once it had been opened he just stood there. The newcomer handed a lock pick kit to him and was speaking about returning it. Airions thoughts were racing as he ran his fingers over the exceptional tools. very nice but I would prefer to have my own tools. oh well can't be helped right now
Airion quickly moved to the other cell and carefully began working on the lock to release Hieronymus an Ele. As he was working he started quietly talking to the newcomer. "I can assume we don't have much time, but we need answers. First of all who are you? We should at least know the name of our savior."
The questions were quickly racing through his head and he wasn't sure how much time they had.
"It would also help if you told us who hired you. What the situation is outside of that door. Where we go once we are out of here. Oh and most important, how to we get our equipment back?"
Airion was fairly sure he had gotten the most important questions out. He had more but they could probably wait.
"I've just about got it. Shouldn't be much longer."

Subject: Daleel
Daleel followed his companions out of the office. Once they were outside Argent suggested finding another way in.
"I didn't like the sound of that scream. It seems odd that the merchandise can get unagreeable."
They seemed to be out of options for getting in an easy way. Daleel figured they didn't have the time to waste on another plan.
we could storm the warehouse. dangerous considering we don't know what is inside. possibilty of being cut off while finding the cargo. worth the risk. I dunno. got to try.
"We can rush the warehouse, not by the main door of course. There is another door. One that seems to run directly into the warehouse itself from this side. If it is locked I can pick it but everyone needs to be ready to move in and face whatever is in there. Then we need to search for the cargo and get back out. It is risky and dangerous, but it may be our only option at this point."

Topic: Submission: The Explorations of Zanthora
Subject: surprise surprise
Once Quintin was in his room he immediately went for his bed. He had to move some debris out of the way of the matress and then lifted it. There sat both his swords. the one was a simple katana and not very important. The other was an ornate katana. The scabbard was intricately carved and matched perfectly with the pommel. It had been in his family for ages. He carefully placed both swords on his left hip.
Then he continued searching his room. Things were scattered everywhere. His storage locker was turned over on it's side and the lock was broken. He opened the doors and started rummaging through looking for his cutting torch. It was a mess guns had fallen off their shelves, shelves had broken loose, ammo and powerpacks were strewn about. Right when he got his hand on the cutting torch something made its way into his room. He went to back out of the closet to see who or what it was, and bumped his head on the door "Damn". As he turned around he heard a female voice. "You don't by chance have a blaster on you by any chance do yo..."
Quintin could hear something moving around in the passageway. He knew Shadow was out there but it sounded too large. "Yeah I got lots of weapons", he turns around and looks in the locker for some weapons not bio coded to his DNA. He finds a blaster and a pistol. He quickly checks them and hands them over. "I've got more but only I can use them. The captain's daughter is further down the passageway. I need to help her."
Quintin grabs the cutting torch and hooks it to his utility belt. He then reaches into the locker and grabs a laser rifle and an extra core pack. "What is out there anyway?"

Subject: out of nowhere
Quintin made his way through a particularly rough area of wires and twisted metal as he was talking to Seira. He could feel he was getting closer to her. wish I had a rescue dog with me right now. Would make this a lot easier. With the thoughts of getting to the captain's daughter at the forefront of his mind he totally missed the fact that he had just passed by his room.
He was more focused on the loud clang and the piece of metal now laying just a few feet in front of him. "Seira, is that you?"
Quintin moved slowly toward the entangled mass in front of him. As he approached he saw the girl in the middle of it. He was thankful that he had found her. Unfortunately, she appeared unconcious and stuck beneath an entry door. It wasn't going to be easy getting her out. He examined the situation a bit more closely. He couldn't move the door even with some help. He would need hydraulics for that. Seira's injuries seemed mostly superficial, but it also seemed like her hip or her leg may have been broken when she was pinned. He couldn't tell for sure until he had her out of there.
He started working to move some of the debris so he could more easily reach her. As he did so he uncovered a placard on the wall and realized how close he was to his room. ok I have to check my room for my gear. Most important things to look for, my cutting torch, my med kit, and my sword.
Quintin grabbed Seira's hand and hoped she could hear him as he spoke. "Seira, I found you. I'm going to get you out of here, but I have to check my room for some equipment. I won't be long, hang in until I get back."
Turning around he backtracked down the corridor until he found the door to his room. Luckily it wasn't completely shut and he could squeeze his way in. He just hoped he could find what he needed.

Subject: Daleel ponders
Daleel was confused by the fact that the door was not locked. It through him off and unsettled him. As he was contemplating moving into the warehouse he heard a whistle. He looked around worried that there may be authorities in the area. (assume I see no authorites and instead see Echo and his gesture down the street)
"What possibly could he want?" Daleel casually walks toward the street and leans agains tthe side of the building. He pulls out a small piece of jerky and begins chewing on it as he casually scans the street in both directions. When he looks in the direction that Echo was indicating, he notices three rather surly looking fellows.
He stands up and stretches a bit before walking back toward the door and the others. Once he is back off the street he motions for Echo to come join the rest of the team. "Well, it seems that Echo has possibly spotted a complication. There are three rather surly fellows coming our way. I can't say for sure they are coming here, but I can't say they aren't either."
The small halfling started pacing back and forth. Time was running out. if they are on their way here it could be bad for us. "They will be here nay moment. Fighing here in the open by the street would not be wise. I think we should move in the door and take the fight to a more enclosed, out of the way area. Hopefully there aren't too many more inside."
Daleel put his hand on the door and prepared to slowly open it.

Subject: back in the slammer
As the events in the prison unfold, Heironymus had all he could do to keep from shaking his head at the stupidity of most leaders. Why did they always seem to blame the innocent? Why did they always seem to think that torture and death were effective tools? Stupid.
Still, he kept his mouth shut because, stupid or not, he had no desire to be tortured. He had seen such behaviour Airion was surprised by the guards. He wasn't sure what was going on but, he was confident this was not the way things should have went.
Once they were in the cells he was even more confused about the situation and their present sittuation. (assuming I am in the cell with Hieronymus and the ladies are together)
"I think we should assume that Allyn did set this up. If nothing else he went to the autorities for assistance, and they assumed we are in on it."
Airion thought back to the letter we should have read it. why didn't we? too scared I suppose "We really should have found out what was in that letter. How do we know it didn't point us as the kidnappers?"
Airion paced around the cell. He didn't like being locked up, especially twice in such a short amount of time and both for reasons unknown. "I'd pick our locks and get us out of here but they took my tools. Unless someone has something I could use we're stuck. I'm not so sure breaking out would help us much anyway. So what do we do now?"
"Well, this is a nice "thank you." Do you suppose Allyn had us arrested, or is he unaware of what is happening? Since all we did was deliver a message, who in this city do you think benefits from conflict? I wonder how they figure that we were involved?"

Quintin heard the sound of metal striking metal ahead of him. good she can move
"Seira, I'm glad you are still trying to talk to me. It lets me know you are still ok. I'm an EMT as well as security so when I get to you I'll check you out before I move you."
Hearing that Seira was pinned and possibly had something broken troubled him. He knew there was a risk for her going into shock and right now he didn't have the equipment to deal with that. As he moved through the corridor he realized he was getting closer to her. He also realized that he was getting close to his own room. Perhaps if he needed it, he hoped he could find some of his equipment still in there.
"I do know Lyonna, she happens to be my boss. She is quite high up. The head of Security in fact." The metal rang out again, much closer this time. "I'm getting closer to you. It's not easy getting through here, but I should be with you soon."

Topic: High School Troubles, Stress, and Woe is Me!
Subject: some thoughts
I dealt with stress in high school pretty easily. A few ideas...make sure you don't forget any work at school. This can really stress you out. get homework done as soon as you get home, or after any afterschool activities I would always get my work done as soon as I could, that way I could devote the rest of the evening to games, nap, fishing, whatever came up. That helped alot. Eat healthy and make sure you eat breakfast skipping breakfast alwaays stressed me out because I was thinking too much about when lunch was. Don't sweat the little things This one is pretty self explanitory and stands very true. Worry about what is important. Talk to your parents!! If anyone can help you through stress about school it is your parents. They can help finish those last minute projects, get you past that pesky math problem you've been stuck on, and most importantly give you a hug when you feel down.
Hopefully some of what I said helps. It has been a while since I was in school but I still remember it.
And with the games here at the inn. Take your time. You are a good player and I am sure everyone enjoys your posts. We all understand that real life comes first though.

Quintin heard the girl cry out "I can't keep talking!"
She sounded like she was in pain. She kept talking a bit anyway. "Wh-who are you guys?" There was a pause and then "I'm Seira, the Captain's daughter. I-is my mom alright?"
the captain's daughter? She wasn't suppose to be on the ship.
Quintin had to talk to her to find her. He was closing in on her voice but it wasn't easy. "Ok Seira. I'm Quintin one of the security personnel. We are looking for survivors and supplies." He wasn't sure how to address the question of her mother right now. He couldn't tell her she was dead. Not yet at least. "It sounds like you are in pain and I can imagine it is hard to talk. If you can move your hands perhaps you could bang on something nearby so I can find you.. I'll keep talking to you. If it sounds like I've passed you tell me to stop."
When he was done he waited for a response, but it wasn't what he expected. Behind him down the corridor that Shadow had taken he heard commotion. It may be possible that there was danger. Shadow can take care of himself. If he needs me he'll yell. Besides I have to save this girl and soon
Quintin continued talking to Seira, making his way through the wreckage toward her.

Subject: the silence is broken
Quintin and Lance were searching everywhere. They were looking for anything remotely usable. The search so far was not going well. They hadn't made it to any of the living quarters yet and the corridors were mostly bare of supplies. Still they kept searching.
At first there was a lot of noise. The creaking of steel beams and ship infrastructure. A howling icy wind just outside pushing to make it's way in. The buzz, pop, sizzle of broken electrical conduit. In one area Quintin could hear the muffled wail of a broken alarm siren. The sounds of the two men searching for something, anything. Soon the sounds faded as they grew accustomed to them. Then there it was, a strangled voice. "Somebody help me!" It wasn't as quiet as the first time he thought he had heard it. This time he was sure.
"Shadow, did you here that? It sounded like a girl. Someone else is alive in here. We need to help her."
Quintin and Lance had come to a cross corridor. This was the start of the living quarters. Quintin tried to listen again for the girl. He couldn't quite pinpoint where the voice came from. He needed to know where to start looking.
"We'll split up, you take the right corridor, and I'll take the left. If one of us finds her just yell."
With that said Quintin headed down the left corridor. Trying to get the person to talk he started shouting out.
"Hey, whoever is out there. We are here to help. You need to keep talking so we can find you. Please!"

Subject: not bad actually
I had thought of a position like this. Someone who was primarily for recon. The captain is skilled at this but I think it would be beneficial to have someone who can leave the ship and bring information back.
I kind of dropped the idea because of the need for the primary crew and not knowing how much interest there would be.
I need to find out if I have a mechanic first and foremost. I am open to this idea again though if I can fill it.
