not a post yet, but action...

When this chapter of the game started, we had a talented writer (josie) fill the role of our CTO.  However, she did very little actual playing.  I haven't heard from her in a long time (not that I can blame her, due to the stagnation of the game).  But CTO is a very necessary spot, especially on a ship like the Peregrine.

As a result, Reralae is going to step in and assume the role of Lieutenant Tal.  Since there hasn't been much play with her, expect some changes to the character to help Reralae get into her skin, so to speak. 

That said, I think that this will be a boon for the game that really, truly, honestly is about to pick back up.

I'm doing some more behind the scenes scheming, too.

Sneaking a Sunday post...

I'm still in the process of developing Tal's personality, but what better way to do that than by posting?

I've still yet to amend her profile to the Tal I see in my mind's eye, but for now I've made the easy adjustments - closer to average height, built more like a gymnast than a weight trainer. Not physically overwhelming in presence.

One thing of note is that as a betazoid, the Tal I'm playing is an empath to a degree. But it's not as though she can say 'Reina in the corner of the canteen is particularly frisky this evening' from the doorway. For the sake of full transparency, I imagine it much like scent; she might be able to tell the overarching mood in a room, but everyone, including herself, adds to the atmosphere. Proximity might allow her to feel more specific things, but it isn't guaranteed unless she's basically physically side by side someone, or only with one other person.

She also does have the ability to influence emotions around her to a very minor extent. She has given her pledge to Captain Drake not to use this ability save life or death of the ship and crew situations, as her own method of preemptively putting at ease people's nervousness about being around a betazoid. In some ways it could even be thought of like a placebo - is the character just a bit less anxious because she's providing a hint of calm to the storm of emotions in the room, or does thinking she might be trick the mind into being less anxious and more able to act?

In any case, I have already considered that the extent of her personal ability is like the metaphorical gentle hand or nudge at the shoulder or back, some very small degree of reassurance that comes with feeling like someone supportive is directly at your side, to help in mitigating the anxiety and stress response of a particularly chaotic sequence of events. Maybe it helps, maybe it doesn't; it's not a fix all emotional turmoil button, and I must emphasize that it isn't supposed to be one.

And if we find that it detracts from anything, I will revise it to where it's just a personal sense, and not something she can do

sweet!

So glad to have you, Reralae!

Sorry for the delay, folks.  I was referencing some items back in Edgo of Duty, butwe had some gremils there making the pages unreadable with strange accent characters.  I spent some time danitizing and fixing.  Post is coming...

=)

Please be patient with me as I ease into trek-ese; I'm more used to the science role, so tactical will be a bit of a jump sideways

If I err too badly on a call or protocol, please let me know and I can amend my post appropriately. I'll do my best as Lt. Tal though
