Ain't nobody entitled to pull a fast one like that, kkutwar, you can fuck right off if you're gonna play that way.

I really wasn't actually expecting anyone to get hurt by the Disruption Grenade, though Cornelius is supposed to be a "villain" who wants to see the fall of Stars. Tossing an active grenade and trying to pass it off as a weapon he stole seems perfectly in character.

I don't really know what you wanted to happen though? Like did you want Taco to just let his character's arm get randomly blown off? O__o

No, I highly doubted that was going to happen. If he just wanted to avoid getting hurt, he could of just missed the catch. Pocketing and then throwing it was overly complicated. I just wanted the explosion to be seen and reacted to since it makes a statement about Repulsor/Cornelius (that, despite partaking in fully heroic actions will nonetheless try to injure/kill Stars once the crisis is over). I would of had him actually fight Cen, but I thought a second battle so quickly might of been annoying.

Aww, I missed out on Cornelius and the kaiju. Oh well!smile I've barely seen any action so far. Granted, Flame Wing is still new to the Stars.

Well, Cornelius isn't done with his thefts for the day and I intend for him to go after a "useless" (as in something that sounds stupid at first, like silencing, that really just needs to be effectively used) artifact. I really liked where our fight was going, and I'm kind of disappointed the background got overwritten with the giant monster battle instead.

Well, Flame Wing is still scanning the city, looking for Cornelius especially, but will settle for anything else. He's already late, and he can blame the kaiju attack for not being able to come to work.

He could drop in on Star Fall. Star Fall is just waiting for Throttle to show up anyways.

Alright, but Star Fall needs to be doing something, well, criminal in order for Flame Wing to notice him.

Hmm, he doesn't have a particular motivation for doing anything 'evil' at the moment. Yet.

He did explode a facility rather messily. Jacques would probably notice it.

@tricksterson (and anyone, really) I'm about to start another scene that would be a perfect time for you to jump in. If you're interested, PM me and I'll write it into the RP.

@Daltar: Quick question; was the building that the Kaiju crashed into inhabited? Because, what Raymond's going to do is quickly search around the immediate area for surface thoughts; chances are, someone's going to know if there were people inside the building. If there were no people inside, then Raymond won't have any serious issues with Mattrin, other than giving him a bit of flak for not considering that possibility. But if there were, than Raymond's going to have quite a bit more beef with him.

I would assume you can decide that yourself. After all, we went ahead and killed the giant monster without any details or outside input.

Just to check before I post, you are aware of the comments made about collateral damage in the setting? I think it was brought up already once.

"However, given the high advances in medicine of all wards, injuries tend to be healed quite quickly and without ill side effects most of the time... plus for some reason, the people of Starline City, even the regular passerby tends to be quite sturdy and resilient... so even though there are fights everywhere, fatalities are in truth quite a rare thing to find... well, outside of the naturally occurring undead and even that can be cured."

From the sign-ups topic. Knocking buildings down is still a Bad Thing because, you know, regular injuries and property damage, but presumably people wouldn't die.

[up]True. However, A)the building still crashed down, and B)even if there's a strong possibility of people not being harmed, there's still a possibility that they could be harmed. Aside from that, Raymond would think that someone who would willingly knock down a building with people inside, even if they are less likely to be harmed than otherwise, is at the least an amoral thug.

Still, you have a point. I've changed 'deaths' to 'injuries', though that doesn't get rid of the issue; as you said, people can still be injured if not killed, and knocking down buildings is still a bad thing.

Okay, I'm back but I'm probably going to roll a new character because I really am not feeling Rio anymore.

Could we have a list of players, their characters and the wards they mostly hang out in?

Well, Jacques has finally seen the need for formal training on how to be a Star. A bit direct in his method of obtaining it, but I had to find a way for it to be a somewhat subtly disguised event for 11 Stars, including himself. I'm sure any Stars in Silicon Street might notice the posters.

Should bear in mind which of the characters are actually active though. A lot of people that signed up haven't posted yet, or only posted once.

I just focused on what characters were approved, though I did leave out Rio in response to Gig's post.

Besides that, Undying, what would you think of Cornelius approaching Jacques in disguise as a Star called Telemax to train him?
