Topic: Destiny's Flight - A Serenity RPG
Subject: checking up...


Sanders rapidly typed into his PADD and nodded. "No Captain. That is fine. The LEO station asked me to check, that's all. Enjoy the weather." He smiled as he put away his device and looked knowing at Ken standing there looking bored. The Marshall had already lost interest in them, you could tell by his body language. He returns to his men and his table where he tells someone named Hudson to give him back his beers.

Ken looked up at the Officer as he finished and flashing him a smile and a nod as the man turned to go join his men… Ken’s gaze followed him and met the eyes of the female Marshall and he gave her another wink and a knowing smile of his own…

He turned to the table and sat down with his Captain and Tess and raised a brow questioningly… he didn’t need to say that he found is strange that the Marshalls would be checking in on them.

“So Captain,” he said as he downed the last of the drink and set the glass on the table, “what now?”


(Nice Zorg quote too…. I see I am not the only one to pull obscure references and put them in posts.. )

Subject: Moving... once again...


Evening, 23th Sempore (Teladay), 452 E.R.
The Lonesome Traveler, Pardinal



"Tadirien. Tadirien Vanlithe, at your service... probably. Are you lot MV6?" The elf reached into his pack and pulled out a packet as he spoke. "My orders are to hand deliver this message to Elessarae of MV6 and then to join that group for the remainder of its current mission. Are you that group? What's our mission? They didn't fill me in before dispatching me from headquarters."

He stands there for a few seconds, caught up in his excitement, before realizing he was still holding Elessarae's missive. "Oh, yes.... sorry. I believe this is for you, m'lady."


Elessarae looked up and showed no surprise at the sudden missive from the MV … it had to be serious for them to send it out so shortly after them leaving and to send a replacement… she reached out and took the missive from the courier.

“Thank you Sir,” she said as she undid the seal that only she could have opened safely … she unrolled the parchment and read it… what was said around her she apparently was unaware of as she read… her face slackened slightly at the message within… she raised her head and seemed to stare off into the distance as she contemplated what she had read… she was brought back to this room with the sudden realization that someone was speaking directly to her

"… Elessarae. Therefore you must obey the summons. However you must not risk your new assignment by riding off into the dark of night right away. The distance is great and you can make up the time lost during the days ahead. At first light, you will leave MV6 and begin your journey back to Londelirinen, but not a moment earlier." With a sudden urge to show his love for the bard, Danamar reached out to stroke her hair lightly and gave her a sad smile: "Tomorrow can wait. Tonight we shall celebrate the meeting of a new friend and the departure of another."

She reached up and took Danamar’s hand and pressed the back it to her cheek… she returned the sad smile… oh how she was tempted… but she knew it could not be…

“ah my Danamar,” she said… the first emotion showing upon her face… was sadness… he knew before she spoke what her answer would be…, “I must leave at once… the message was clear… the need is urgent… I can not delay one moment longer.”

She rose and gathered her things… trying not to look at Danamar lest she see the hurt that would no doubt be in his eyes… once she was ready she turned to the party … her gaze taking in all of them as if… it might be the last time she saw them.

“We all have our own journeys to take…” she said as she paused her gaze upon Danamar… “we must do our duty and protect those that can not protect themselves… be strong… and take heart … we will meet again.”

As if afraid she might falter… she turned and left the Inn… the door closed behind her and she was gone… leaving an emptiness within the room… and within their hearts.

Having eaten and rested… they spent a little time learning some of their new team mate… yet the emptiness of the loss one of their own left all of them feeling as if they should turn in for the night… they all acquired rooms and at first found sleep elusive… and not very restful…

They all had strange dreams that night… visions of darkness… death… people screaming… people crying out for lost loved ones… upon awakening in the early morning… something didn’t seem right… looking around they saw no unexpected visitors in their rooms… but they sensed something in the Inn was not as it should be…


(Ok.. hopefully we can get this moving along again... if you have any questions you can use the Q&A .. if they are private then PM me.. I would like a post a week from all... more if you feel inclined ... if you can not post one week please let me know... I realize that RL can be troublesome at times... so lets get this game on the road... post at will )

.. you may if you wish post a backstory for Tad.. but.. it isnt necessary... what has happened in the past is not as important as what he does in the future...

Edited to add: I dont plan to post an update till the end of this month... but if anyone feels the need to post for their character to get them caught up to where they are at the time... please by all means post.

Subject: strangeness...


(Thanks that is the way I imagine it was spoken… glad to know I was right about something )

“Well duh,” Timmy said and rolled his eyes at her and shook his head sadly, “I know you’re a drow… remember I said it earlier… but..”

He stopped swinging his feet as he looked closely at her with a puzzled expression.

“I sense… something strange about you…” he raised an eyebrow as he looked at her as if waiting for an explanation.

Timmy seemed by appearances to be just a little human child… but his mannerisms sometimes hinted at a mental capacity that was far superior to that of a child his apparent age.

Character Description/History:

Irael awoke in the wild elven lands, not knowing where he was. As he sat up, he felt a throbbing pain in his head, though he had no idea why he would feel it. Looking at his body, he realized he had been stripped of everything he owned, and was lost. Not daring to give up, he got up and wandered aimlessly, searching for someone whom he could ask what happened.

A day later, he was found by a patrol team, and brought to the village. He rested in the infirmary until he was capable, and then began to ask around what had happened. Nobody knew why he was there, or how. Simply that Irael now was part of their village. Irael attended the school of elven swords and sorcery to be able to prepare himself for when he was to be in a dangerous situation again, so that he would not be harmed. Being with his kin, he learned the way of mixing the sword and magic in combat. Irael excelled at this, and became the top of his class. However, his desire for knowledge of who he had been before he awoke that one day puzzled him to no end, and so he left the Syl village and went off questing for the answers.

The boy sat swinging his feet as he waited for the girl’s response… his eyes widened when she spoke and he smiled back at her.

“It is a gift..” he said and shrugged his shoulders.. “I don’t know how I do it.. I just wish it and see it in my head and others see it too… I don’t know how to teach you.”

“I’m Timmy,” he said to her again swinging his feet which didn’t come close to touching the floor.

Topic: Destiny's Flight - A Serenity RPG
Subject: a fresh face...


“Excuse me? Are you part of the crew to the ship there - Destiny? I’d like to speak to the Captain?” The two marshals that stay with their captain wait patiently.

Raising an eyebrow at the question from the Fed officer… a Colonel by the insignia on his uniform… Ken remained as cool as a clear night on St. Albans.

“Yeah….” he said straightening himself as he looked over the Marshalls “that is our ship… the Captain is inside… come on I’ll show ya.”

He noticed the flirty look from the female marshal … he smiled back and gave her a little wink before turning to escort them inside the bar… he left the others to decide for themselves if they should follow or continue on to the ship.

Once inside he headed them towards the table where the Captain and Tess were seated… he caught the eye from the Captain and with his hand in front of him he flashed him a alert signal where the Marshalls couldn’t see it.

“Captain…” Ken stopped and gestured to the Fed Officer with him “This here gentlemen would like to talk to the Captain of the Destiny.” He said that so that Jon would know that the Marshalls had the name of their ship… which meant that probably had other info as well… Ken stepped out of the way so the Colonel could converse with the Captain… he glanced at Tess giving her a look that she would know meant to be ready here just in case

Ken stood to the side as if bored… looking like he was waiting to see what this was all about… he reached down to the table and lifted one of the glasses that was left there with a little of the wine still inside… he sipped it and made a satisfied sound.

All this was an act… he held the glass in his right hand… this was his main gun hand and he hoped it would relax anyone watching him into thinking his gun hand was filled so he wasn’t ready to draw a weapon if needed… but Ken was quite fast… and if the need to draw a weapon presented itself he could drop the glass … draw his sidearm… fire off a couple of rounds… all before the glass hit the floor… but he was hoping none of that would be needed… he was curious about what the Feds wanted with the Destiny.

(Nice Aliens movie reference there… made me laugh. )

Hmm… I don’t believe I have RPed with Grugg before… this should prove interesting … since he is the Captain does that mean we have to feed him? Perhaps Ken should.. as he seems to be a wonderful cook from what I have read thus far.

Well… I look forward to RPing with all of you…

Andrew saw the man as he started to step from the shadows but he kept his eyes cast downward as if he didn’t see him until he spoke up.

"Hey! Who are you?" he calls out, "There's a curfew tonight!"

He pulled up as if startled.. looked at the man and then smiled and gave an audible sigh.

“Well goodness… you startled me there Sheriff,” he said with a faint smile as if everything was alright… then he furrowed his brow as if just hearing the man’s words.

“Curfew?”… well to tell the truth I am new here abouts… I have been out in the brush for weeks and just now came into town… didn’t know there was a curfew… no trouble I hope… but see I just came into town looking for a hot meal and something to drink” he said nodding to the saloon door.

He studied the man… obviously a deputy.. must be one of the ones he heard about from Ash and Wolf… well he knew he couldn’t be soft here.. he had to take care of this and quickly.

“You see… I left my ride back there..” he said this turning slightly to his right and pointing back the way he had come with his left hand … the turn served to hide his right side from the man as his hand raised to his pistol .. he doubted the man would see it with the blocking move and the dimmer light and with luck the man might actually glance towards the direction he was pointing … “and all I have with me is this…”

The last was said as he turned back … turning his body so that the drawn pistol was already leveled at the man… he didn’t hesitate .. with the pistol still close to his body.. his elbow braced against his ribs for control… he let go two rounds towards the center mass of the man’s chest… and then extending his arm to full … he let the third shot go towards the man’s face.. just in case… you never know who is wearing body armor these days.
