Renao, Mid Evening





“Sorry, Carlton, all I know is on those little slips of paper, God’s honest.” She reaches delicately into the breast pocket of his shirt, and removes a folded stack of credits. “I don’t need to count this, do I?” Her smile is sweet enough as she drops a few bills on the table, enough to cover the food she ordered, thumb through a quick count, and turn to go. “Oh, and nice shirt, Caesar. If Headley doesn’t have what you need, there’s the tourist shop near the hunting resort two islands over. Take a water taxi. Becky knows the one I’m talking about. Used to get into all manner of trouble over there, they say.” She winks and saunters toward the water.

Shu District, Ariel, Early Morning





The soldiers start toward MacHale until he is joined by the other doctors, quickly losing interest and focusing on deployment into the nearby parking garage. The soldiers are heading up a stairwell in the garage. MacHale sees them running up the stairwell as he enters the hotel. Ewing and Harrell begin to head into the ballroom, waving farewell to their new colleague. The hotel interior is a bustle of activity for this early in the morning. Women in hats half as tall as they are are gathering towards a smaller conference room ahead, and even the tavern is alive with an early morning breakfast buffet. As he takes another pull on his cigarette, he notes a stream of Greenbow security personnel down the hallway heading towards the elevators

Early Morning, Shu District, Ariel City, Ariel




A roiling plume rises from the burning wreckage of the upended hovercar, a new QMX roadster convertible valued at a few hundred thousand credits, freshly stolen and hopefully insured. The thick billows obscure your pursuers; at last estimate twenty-strong, but the klaxons from Piermont Manor and the neighboring streets suggest that more arriving shortly. Bystanders in their city finery huddle behind squat round bollards, whimpering or peering around them in silent awe as the horror unfolds.

Wuxia, Rules questions, and Recapping current developments




Where we’re at:

So I just wanted to list out what I see as being the last bits necessary before we start the next ‘step’ (which is basically play). This list was generated for my reference, but I thought it would be useful for you guys too as we finish up creation.

Sam:
Need 1 planet, a Sidetracked and an On your Own

LR:
Finalize stunts, need On your Own

Bphage:
Need On your Own

Kenna:
Need stunts, skills, 2 planets and sidetracked

Terry:
Need one Stunt, On Your Own

Obviously, all this is draft until everyone is finished and has a chance to chime in with final suggestions, so that’s one for everyone’s to do list.

Dapper Swain and other notes

Here's my ship layout thus far. It'll need some updates from you guys, and suggestions are welcome.



I still need to finish the exterior designs, but this should get you started. In other news, looks like people are getting together their final bits of character. I'd also like to get any outstanding planets finished up shortly so I have a good feel for what places are available/interesting to you guys.

Let me know what you think.

Sidetracked! et c.

Alright, since the MoCs came in so fast, I'll go ahead and request a Sidetracked and On Your Own from each of you. In your sidetracked, you will 'retell' the story of the person to your left from your perspective. This story may be quite different, as we discussed in the last thread.

Also, might as well start working on stunts and skills (most of you have already).
