(35) Savoy: You pass through the outer airlock into the dome's inner chamber, where your footsteps resound on the grillwork floor. Looking around, you are greeted by horrifying sights.
(35) Savoy: The interior is lit by a single spotlight, mounted to the dome's apex, 15-meters above, which circles slowly counterclockwise about the chamber. You see that the entire inner surface of the dome is covered with flashing panels, computers, and webs of circuitry. Suspended around the dome's periphery are several cyborgs - t'sa sesheyans, humans--each wrapped in a cocoon of wires connected to the webwork above. They hang 5 meters above the floor, cyberoptic implants gleaming in the darkness and metallic limbs twitching ever so slightly.
(41) Brox_Teneshe: [Bad dice format]
(35) Savoy: The center of the room seems to be a focal point from a stream of energy, who's source is not readility appearent. The stream of energy flows from the area near the apex of the dome, and is directed just a half a meter above the floor in the center of the complex. At the moment, the pulsing green, blue and black energy ball is about a meter across at its largest point.
(35) Savoy: Directly ahead of you is a triangular dais leading to a 2-meter- niche lined with circuits and panels, with a security camera mounted above. A rearsonant voice suddenly fills the dome. "Don't be shy. Approach the dias."
エッチ(35) Savoy: You see..
(35) Savoy: standing near the back of the dome...
(35) Savoy: near the opening two figures...
(35) Savoy: one is covered in a black hooded robe...
(35) Savoy: and the other is nothig short of a mechanila horror.
(35) Savoy: INT check +0
(42) Tassadar: OOC -- hold on a sec. This is a big dome. Attached to the roof of the dome are several cyborgs, plugged into the ceiling. They are radiating some kind of energy into a focal point in the center of the dome? Is that an accurate picture?
(42) Tassadar: { intelligence, or intuition? }
(35) Savoy: yes... the squares are about 3m big))

(41) Brox_Teneshe: {Ordinary}
whispering to Kevlarn, that mechanical horror figure, is a Magnus!
(42) Tassadar: [1d20+1d4] -> [8,4] = (12)
(42) Tassadar: {marginal for Taass}
(35) Savoy: Both the figures are....
(35) Savoy: seem focused on something else, and don't seem to be too worried about you at all.
(35) Savoy: *FP*
(35) Savoy: .
(35) Savoy: .
** (42) Tassadar tries to hide. **
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {Jason, feat checks have a base 1 step modifiers against you.}
(35) Savoy: *the tunnlle behind you is vurtual gone, as it dissappeared, 'coiling' closed like a nest of black vipers.
(37) Kevlarn: that thing is a magnus
** (41) Brox_Teneshe looks around, trying to see if the hanging cyborgs have responded to our presence. **
(37) Kevlarn: guys
(42) Tassadar: Where is Alaaxis, Timogen? Give us the girl, and no one gets hurt.
** (35) King Barks **
(35) Savoy: The cyborgs hang there motionless
(35) Savoy: the curcuits that line the back of the niche writhe and untwist like a nest of black vipers. There curtain of circuits retracts into the surrounding walls, and behind it you see a brightly lit chamber.
(35) Savoy: You see a third figure now, ...
(35) Savoy: near the back wall.
(35) Savoy: It appears 'merged' into the technology around it.
(35) Tryce: "Come closer"
(42) Tassadar: I must say Tryce, you've got a wonderful interior decorator. {Tassadar saunters closer, hand on its pistol.}
(35) Savoy: *move your figure*
(42) Tassadar: { How? }
(42) Tassadar: { The only map I've got shows C3P0's legs in a sea of darkness. Which is a great poetic image, but hard for gaming. }
** (41) Brox_Teneshe makes mental notes about possible weaknesses of this place (exposed power conduits and capaciters, etc) **
(35) Savoy: **make sure you have the 'miniature tab'selected... and clink once on your figure, and then once where you want to go**
(42) Tassadar: { Is Rubiks still providing a telepathic link, so I can talk to Bronz? }
(35) Savoy: **turns out you haven't heard a 'peep' from RU...
(45) jason (enter): 09:39
(35) Savoy: since you entered in this place.*
(45) jason: (sorry all
(45) jason: )
(42) Tassadar: { I have an enormous amount of blackness on my map. All I see are C3P0's legs. Can you resend the map? }
(45) jason: ( computer frozze)
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {The screen is black, "clicking on" our character is impossible since we can't see it.
(42) Tassadar: OOC - it's okay jason
(45) jason: ( he is hideiing that map tass)
(35) Savoy: TA moves forward*
(35) Savoy: *other actions?*
(42) Tassadar: { It says I must be a player or GM to use the miniature Layer. C3P0 doesn't like people fondling his legs, I guess. }
** (41) Brox_Teneshe makes mental notes about possible weaknesses of this place (exposed power conduits and capaciters, etc) **
(35) Savoy: *puase*
** Sorry, don't understand what a / is...
(35) Savoy: **there, try it now**
(42) Tassadar: Yessir, a very stylish set-up you've got here. The whole "Evil Genius Minimalist" look. Nice! But it's no place to take girls, is it? Let's send her back home where she belongs.
(35) Savoy: *resume*
(42) Tassadar: OOC - nope. It's like those maps of Africa where the whole continent was a mysterious abyss.
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {Is Bronz noticing anything of importantance technically?}
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {Same here, map is still black.}
(35) Savoy: BR sec +2 tactics +2
(41) Brox_Teneshe (whispering): {Security and Tactics, correct?}
(42) Tassadar: { Awww yeah!}
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {Ah, map is working now.}
(35) Savoy: **BR, yes**
(35) Tryce: "Come closer"
(41) Brox_Teneshe: [1d20+1d8] -> [14,8] = (22)
(42) Tassadar: { That is one big Federation symbol! }
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {Failed first check}
whispering to Brox_Teneshe, nothing noticed, yet
(41) Brox_Teneshe: [1d20+1d8] -> [16,8] = (24)
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {Failed second one as well}
** (42) Tassadar studies the weird globe as he walks by **
** (45) Kevlarn gos and backs rubiks **
(35) Savoy: * As you need Tryce... you see...
(35) Savoy: The chamber is sunk 8 meters behind the dais. On the walls are videoviewer arrays that fill the chamber with images and noise from the city outside. Near the back of this circuit-laden encloave, suspended by dozens of wires and clamps, is an obese man with tubes running out of his nostrils, neck, and stomach. His fingers are plugged into sockets in the nearby walls. As you approach, he takes his gaze away from the monitors and gives you a bloodshot gare. "Welcome. I'm Quentin Tryce."
(45) Kevlarn: hi
(35) Savoy: *only KE and BR or to obsqured to see Tryce
(35) Tryce: Hello
(42) Tassadar: {Tass can't see him? Why not? }
(45) Kevlarn: so what is this place
(35) Savoy: [TA, RU, and KIng are close enough to see and talk to Tryce*
** (45) Kevlarn walks up to tryce **
(42) Tassadar: It's nice to finally meet you, Tryce. You shouldn't have been so shy all this time.
(35) Savoy: Now, BR is the only one to far away.*
(35) Tryce: Hello, ask your friends to join us. I'd like to talk to you all at once.
(42) Tassadar: Meeting your little friends and henchmen harldy prepared us for the reality.
(45) Kevlarn: ok
(42) Tassadar: Bronz, would you mind coming up here a moment?
(45) Kevlarn: hey guys will you all please join us
** (41) Brox_Teneshe walks up to the others.... **
(35) Savoy: *ok
(42) Tassadar: { uh.... my map broke. I don't know why. }
(35) Tryce: Welcome to my nexus
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {What is a magnus?}
(42) Tassadar: Quite posh. We'd love to get the grand tour, but we're just here to pick up a friend.
(45) Kevlarn: Tryce what is a Magnus
(35) Savoy: *he doesn't understand that question... typo, that is MAGUS*
** (41) Brox_Teneshe makes a point to not stand "under" any cyborgs. **
(37) Kevlarn (exit): 09:55
(45) Kevlarn: ok Magus
(35) Savoy: *it seems to be following the hooded figure around*
(35) Savoy: *br ok*
(42) Tassadar: { Bronz was asking OOC, I think. OOC, a Magus is a weird cyber-monster. In Character, Tass has no idea what it is. }
(42) Tassadar: { my map is still broken -- it's just tons of green. }
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {Thanks, yes I was asking OOC.}
(35) Tryce: Let me introduce myself formally.
(35) Tryce: I run one of the largest and most porfintable busniessse in this system. As you all can see, I have operatives scattered throughout the city watching anyone and anything that interests me. I can see through their eyes, as it were. You see, my specialty is the procurement and distribution of black-market cyberware. However, I do have contact in the rhodium business who can sell you a consignment for far than what Hessler or anyone else is willing to offer.
(35) Tryce: I know you met with Traven at the Black Nebula, and I suspect he made some mildly tantalizing offer, but you rhodium runners are all the same -always looking for the best deal in town. Well, you've come to the right place.
(35) Tryce: I will have a full consignment of rhodium delivered provided at 10% below current market price. Moreover I will see to it that your ship is safely escorted out of the Oberon system. That only will spare you the Kind Tax and any run-ins with External Forces.
(45) Kevlarn: well that answers that
(42) Tassadar: Tempting. What about Alaaxis?
(35) Tryce: I also know you have an interest in a mutual friend.
(45) Kevlarn: tryce mind if i look over your shoulder to see waht you have on your screen
** (41) Brox_Teneshe appears visibly impressed, but uncomfortable. **
(35) Tryce: "Furthmore, I can provide you with the finest cyberware in Lison at a 25% discount. I can even guarantee free installation return for this very generous offer, I only ask only two things.
(45) Kevlarn: and she is standing over there she is the hooded one righ t
(35) Tryce: 'First, I ask that you must leave Alaaxis here with me. I am a man who keeps his end of a bargain, and I promise you that harm will befall her. However, she is important to me in ways you cannot know, and I must have her.
(35) Tryce: 'Second, allow Timogen to accompany you out of the Oberon system. I have cured him of his cykosis. I assure you he is no longer interested in harming Alaaxis and has decided to search for others of his kind in the vastness of Old Space. He will join a ship waiting near Leen. I would like you to deliever him there. I still owe him a favor, and I'd like to repay that favor now.
(45) Kevlarn: how come she is importen to you
(42) Tassadar: { Tass subtly examines Kev's and Bronz's body language-- are they ready to fight? }
(45) Kevlarn: (no )
(35) Tryce: She is a key to my work... as you can see is multifaceted.
(45) Kevlarn: how
** (41) Brox_Teneshe is openly nervous, with a light sweat on his bro. **
** (35) Rubiks staggers, and falls to one knee **
(42) Tassadar: Tryce, Alaaxis is non-negotiable.
(45) Kevlarn: yep that we can veary impreasave to
whispering to Kevlarn, Your headache has reached MONSTOUS proportions.
(45) Kevlarn: hold on tass
(35) Savoy: *INI-preception check +2*
** (42) Tassadar glances at Rubiks'Nox. Is he hurt? **
(45) Kevlarn: tryce by any chance can you drope the anti-psionics filed it is giveing me a killer headach
(42) Tassadar: [1d20+1d6] -> [20,3] = (23)
** (35) Rubiks Shakes head, and stands up. **
(42) Tassadar: {fails}
(41) Brox_Teneshe: [1d20+1d6] -> [2,2] = (4)
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {Good}
(45) Kevlarn: [1d20-1d6] -> [7,-5] = (2)
** (35) King Licks RU as he stands **
(45) Kevlarn: [1d20+1d4] -> [17,3] = (20)
(45) Kevlarn: [1d20+1d6] -> [8,6] = (14)
(45) Kevlarn: oops fail
(42) Tassadar: Can I ask where you get your supplies, Tryce? Naria? VoidCorp? Illegal cyberware doesn't grow on trees, and you must have a stellar nation's backing to buy off the pirates.
(45) Kevlarn: please tryce we are not here to hurt you
whispering to Kevlarn, You see 'whisps' of green and blue energy wiff off RU and RUs staff... and rise to the energy ball in the center of the room.
(35) King: Of course, but now, with the new landscape...
(42) Tassadar: { my map is still broken. Can't see anything }
(35) King: of the Verge, I have even more powefull firends.
** (45) Kevlarn eyes go wide **
(41) Brox_Teneshe (whispering): Good success on the Awareness perception check, what do I see?
(42) Tassadar: { Gonna leave and re-enter. Hope the map comes up. }
(42) Tassadar (exit): 10:04
(42) Tassadar (enter): 10:04
(42) Tassadar: Disconnecting from server...
(42) Tassadar (exit): 10:05
whispering to Brox_Teneshe, You see whisps of green and blue energy leaving RU and RUs staff, and moving toward the energy ball in the center of the room.
(48) Tassadar (enter): 10:05
(45) Kevlarn: not supriseing we all do at one point of anuther
(45) Kevlarn: how come you need the gril
(45) Kevlarn: girl
** (41) Brox_Teneshe moves causally over to Rubiks and supports him, as he leads him away from the Sphere overhead. **
(35) King: That is on no concern of yours!
** (35) King Voice rumbles throughout the complex **
(45) Kevlarn: ok sorry
** (35) Tryce Voice rumbles throughout the complex **
** (48) Tassadar flicks its tail in frustration. **
(45) Kevlarn: can we come to some kind of agreement to all this
(45) Kevlarn: we dont need to figh t
(35) Tryce: Sure we can, you have heard my deal.
(48) Tassadar: Did you know Sethyk, Tryce? He had something very interesting in his store--a vial. A strange bit of technology.
(35) Tryce: I'd say, its a GREAT one, for someone like your group.
(45) Kevlarn: can i hear it one more time
(35) Tryce: Can you show me what you are talking about?
** (41) Brox_Teneshe observes Rubiks closely, assessing his condition.... {how bad is he?} **
(48) Tassadar: Certainly the authorities might like a good look at it.
(48) Tassadar: I think you know what it is.
(45) Kevlarn (whispering): im going to talk till i can anymore
(48) Tassadar: The question you have to ask yourself is, is Alaaxis more important to your plans than this weird little bug?
(35) Savoy: *RU is still wounded from before...
(35) Savoy: but he never acted this 'weak' until he entered the biulding.
(45) Kevlarn: he is draning off our psi ablity both rubiks and i are suffring
(35) Savoy: *replay of the deal*
(35) Tryce: I will have a full consignment of rhodium delivered provided at 10% below current market price. Moreover I will see to it that your ship is safely escorted out of the Oberon system. That only will spare you the Kind Tax and any run-ins with External Forces.

"Furthmore, I can provide you with the finest cyberware in Lison at a 25% discount. I can even guarantee free installation return for this very generous offer, I only ask only two things.

'First, I ask that you must leave Alaaxis here with me. I am a man who keeps his end of a bargain, and I promise you that harm will befall her. However, she is important to me in ways you cannot know, and I must have her.

I would like you to deliever him there. I still owe him a favor, and I'd like to repay that favor now.

(35) Tryce: Humm... some dead bug, or Alaaxis? NOw that is a hard one!
(35) Tryce: Let me think. Alaaxis of course!
(45) Kevlarn: ok so we do this and tyou give us the girl after we get back
(48) Tassadar: Ahh, but it's a mechanical bug. A mechanical bug that Sethyk found and kept hidden away.
(35) Tryce: No, the girl is mine.
(45) Kevlarn: TASS please
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {Whispering} Tass, we can't negotiate like this....
(35) Tryce: Sethyk and his bugs are no concern of mine.
** (41) Brox_Teneshe is supporting Rubiks to help him stand. **
(48) Tassadar: Jsut a moment, Tryce. Let me confer with my allies a moment.
(45) Kevlarn: she is importen to you right
(35) Savoy: *br ok
(48) Tassadar: Gentlemen? (Tass huddles)
(48) Tassadar: This is absolutley pointless. Either we give in to his demands, or we don't. We have nothing to bargain with.
** (41) Brox_Teneshe confers with Tass. **
(35) Savoy: The ball of energy in the room 'jumps' a bit.
** (41) Brox_Teneshe nods **
(48) Tassadar: If we don't give into his demands, we have to kill him now. We won't get a better chance.
(45) Kevlarn: tryce do you like stones
(35) Savoy: ... and now is back at its original state.
(41) Brox_Teneshe: I agree, let's take his offer for now...
** (41) Brox_Teneshe winks... **
(45) Kevlarn: Brox do you have the sample
(35) Savoy: *RU asks if you want him to try and see under the hooded figures 'hood'
(48) Tassadar: Yes, I have the sample Kevlarn. Here it is.
(48) Tassadar: Sure Rubiks.
(45) Kevlarn: may i have them
(35) Savoy: [1d20+1d6] -> [18,3] = (21)
** (45) Kevlarn holds out his hand **
(35) Savoy: Ru falls to a knee again, as BR catches him.
** (48) Tassadar gives Kevlarn the box with the Unknown Sparkly Rock. **
(45) Kevlarn: thanks
** (45) Kevlarn takes one out **
(45) Kevlarn: hands the rest back to tass
** (45) Kevlarn walks up to tryce **
(41) Brox_Teneshe: You needs to lose some weight Rubiks.... {to Rubiks}
(48) Tassadar: (whispering to Bronz) What do you make of this energy focus device? What happens if we take it out?
(35) Savoy: *pause
(45) Kevlarn: would these be of any intrest to you
(35) Hooded Figure: Heritic!!! *The hood falls back to revile a Gardhyi with strange PURPLE eyes... and purple streaks from the eyes, that make him look like he has been cryig purple dye*

(35) SIS: You need to get back as soon as possible so we can try and find out how to fix it!
(55) Tassadar: King, I officially no longer want to eat you.
(55) Tassadar: What in the Nine Hells of Perpetual Debt is a Jimbar?
** (35) King Licks the laser burns on his side **
(55) Tassadar: And where are Kevlarn and Rubiks?
(35) SIS: That is the other thing... once an event occurs, we should be able to locate you. But we can't find Rubix, or Kavlarn at all
(35) SIS: The only reseason would be if they removed their implace, they died, or if the left this timeline. So... are they ... dead?
(55) Tassadar: { Is the Crazy Globe still active? }
(35) Savoy: *most of the dome is in the process of overloading.. and cblacking out.*
(55) Tassadar: I don't know, honestly. Some Crazy Globe ate them, or something. It was my fault.
(41) Brox_Teneshe: SIS, we were seperated from them it seems.
(55) Tassadar: Bronz, can you make it to the street? We need to have this conversation outside.
(41) Brox_Teneshe: Yeah, I can walk-slowly
(35) Savoy: Well, bring as much data to the ship as possible... and then we'l see what happened ...
(55) Tassadar: {If we can't make it to the street, Tassadar burns a hole out of the wall with its laser.}

(35) Savoy: *although that takes time... you do that ... and empy one clip*
** (41) Brox_Teneshe looks at Tass **
** (55) Tassadar drags Tryce's corpse out to the street, and hides it in some alley. **
(35) Savoy: the ambulance is outside waiting.
(41) Brox_Teneshe: "Shoot the Ord" he says..
(35) Savoy: TA has to REALLY pull to get him loose... but ok*
** (41) Brox_Teneshe grins blankly **
(55) Tassadar: {While Tass is disconnecting Tryce, he uses its dataslate to download some of Tryce's files.

(35) Savoy: *none*
(35) SIS: waiting
(55) Tassadar: Oh wait-- Tryce isn't dead, he's just unconscious. Without any of King's magic spit! Great.
(55) Tassadar: Bronz, can you get to the hospital with Alaaxis? I want to wait for Traven to show up.
(41) Brox_Teneshe: OK, We will see you there.
** (41) Brox_Teneshe goes with Alaaxis to the hospital. **
** (55) Tassadar gags Tryce with some power cords, and trusses him up like a pig. **
(35) Savoy: TA ok*
** (35) Traven arrives **
(55) Tassadar: {When Traven arrives, Tassadar explains, "This guy is key to the whole operation. Let's get him into your car."
(35) Traven: What happened to you!
** (35) Traven does what he is asked to **
(55) Tassadar: To make a long story short, people followed my advice.
(35) Traven: Alaaxis?
(55) Tassadar: She's at the hospital: Bronz is looking after her. But right now this is the bigger emergency, believe it or not.
(35) Traven: OK... and what are we planning on doing?
(55) Tassadar: This guy killed two of my friends, and is the big criminal underboss of Tribon it seems.
(55) Tassadar: Well, I don't want to leave this guy unattended.
(35) Traven: Yes... I know who he is... and frankly... I'd dump this body in the street and walk away QUICKLY!
(35) Traven: If is weren't for Alaaxis, I'd dump you out with him.
(35) Traven: He is dead you know.
(55) Tassadar: Thanks a million, Traven.
(55) Tassadar: {He's dead? When did that happen?}
(35) Traven: You would have to tell me that
(55) Tassadar: {That was OOC.}
(55) Tassadar: {OOC - what's happening to Kev and Bronz?}
(35) Savoy: ** he might be dead or not... that is hard to tell **
(35) Savoy: **from the trunk**
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {Right here, just playing along...}
** (55) Tassadar , unable to decide if he's living or dead, insists that any information in TRaven's corpse will point to a conspiracy. **
(35) Savoy: ... just RU and KU got pulled into the globe **
(55) Tassadar: "As distasteful as it sounds, we need to hold onto him. Alaax isn't safe until we know who's behind Tryce."
(55) Tassadar: I'm just trying to do a thorough job for you, Boss.
(35) Savoy: I'll take him somewhere...
(55) Tassadar: (calls Bronz) Things all right on your end?
(35) Savoy: faily safe. I ...
(35) Savoy: heard he has new powerful friends.
** (55) Tassadar stays with Tryce's corpse at all times. **
(35) Savoy: You better offload him fast, one way or another.
(35) Savoy: - Traven
(55) Tassadar: (calls Yovas) -- We've got an extra passenger, it looks like.
(55) Tassadar: (to Traven) We'll take him off your hands for you.
(41) Brox_Teneshe: Yeah, so far, we are getting fixed up, it will be a few hours before I get out of surgery, she is going to be OK I think.
(35) Yovas CG: I have make arrangements for a shuttle... its a blue section gate 10
(35) Traven: I'll see to her, now. I'll keep my end of the bargin by the way and then some.
(55) Tassadar: {I'm satisfied with Tass's progress, and if you want to switch to Bronz or Kev, it's fine with me.}
** (35) Traven hands you a data slate **
(35) Traven: There is a full carge unit of 45. ready to go.
(55) Tassadar: Sorry it got so messy, Boss. We try to work clean, but some of these guys like to play a little rough.
(35) Traven: Just show that to the dock master... and get out of here.
(35) Traven: The unit is paid for... by a relative of Alaaxis'. In case of her safe return.
(55) Tassadar: Michael Kevik. Her uncle. A famous politician, as I recall.
(35) Traven: I'll be sure she is moved somewhere safe until she is fully recovered, and can decide what 'she' wants to do.
** (35) Traven caughs! **
(35) Traven: How did you know that!
(55) Tassadar: We believe in doing a thorough job, that's all.
(35) Savoy: *TA and BR feel a tickling sensation on the wrists*
(41) Brox_Teneshe: {Once you are ready to advance time, Alaxxis and Bronz will need to settle up with the hospital - Tass has the funds}
(35) Savoy: **done**
** (41) Brox_Teneshe checks the implant. **
