Re: CHAPTER 1: SOS
That'd be an (easy) Chemistry check, Laraqua: the greens of the atmosphere suggest certain - highly caustic - chlorides in great quantities. You suppress a shudder at the thought of inhaling a lungful of that stuff! " A not unlikely answer, Samantha, and an all-too appropriate quote perhaps, P...

Re: Off Topic Comms
I sing in a progressive metal band.
Your Science Officer, Rose Vinyard, is ready to go, Laraqua. If you want to make any modifications before you post, go right ahead; I'll wait for you to post before I update.
Sorry about the delay - been a VERY busy week!

Re: Off Topic Comms
I'm in a band - our new single came out this monday, and we had a gig on Saturday. The combination of the two events resulted in me spending most of sunday and monday feeling very sorry for myself.
You'll be ready to go tonight, Laraqua. Sorry about the delay everyone!

Re: Off Topic Comms
Your character will be up and ready to use tonight, Laraqua. Been a bit of an insane weekend what with a single launch and everything so I spent yesterday mostly sleeping and feeling like I was going to die, hahaha.

Re: CHAPTER 1: SOS
Failed SAN Check,For just a moment, you are convinced that the cloud cover swirls around a single point, so that the entire planet resembles a lidless, diseased eye, and you get the distinct and distinctly uncomfortable sense that someone - or something - is looking directly at you.

Lieutenant Matumbo finds the planet's appearance more than a little unsettling, but not unduly so.

Re: Off Topic Comms
Given that I've not heard a peep from Laraqua since his post a week ago, likewise Tormsen in the game thread itself, I'll give Tormsen at least til midnight tonight (GMT) and roll his sanity check myself. If he comes back, all to the good but I'll take over Pierre for the time being as a DMPC in ord...

Re: The Character Creation Station
So she should. This is what comes of moving stats about to better suit the character concept and not paying enough attention to what I'm tweaking.
Good spot, Handy, thanks!

Re: CHAPTER 1: SOS
The Captain smiles a little sadly at Pierre's response. " A fair suggestion about the saw, Ms. Golightly; if the Magellan appears to be heavily damaged then I'll send you over with one. However, as we only have two of them I would be reluctant to have them off the ship unless necessary. If ther...

Re: Off Topic Comms
There certainly is, Laraqua! There's still half the crew as yet unmentioned, so feel free to make yourself a new character using the Character Creation Station.
Once you're ready, you can start posting in Chapter 1.

Re: In The Silence Between Stars Needs YOU!
By all means - there're a few characters with a cursory background in the 'Chapter 1' thread already (please note that the Captain is NPC-only), so if any of the sketchy information on them catches your eye let me know and I'll stat them up properly for you. Otherwise, give me an idea of the kind of...

Re: Off Topic Comms
Alright. I suppose it gives me time to write up detailed backstories for the other crewmembers anyway.
Bit of a pain, really, but if you have to fly solo for a bit, you'll fly solo for a bit I guess!

The Captain nods thoughtfully. " Which is why you'll be going over there first, Ms. Golightly. I get the feeling that you'll object if I send Mr. Klein and his itchy trigger finger over with you, so Amantine will handle security, and the Lieutenant here can handle the scientific side. " He...

Space is a scary place. The crew of the DNV Searchlight are answering a 20-year-old distress call from the lost colony ship Magellan . What terrors await them? Want to find out?

Re: Off Topic Comms
We seem to have a curious lack of players at the moment (my fault, owing to my week-long absence). I'll PM the two who aren't Mr. Handy and see if we can get things moving again, so no update til friday for now. If we have dropped to just you, Handy, then we'll carry on regardless and hope some othe...
