X Universe Factional RP- Part 2

Post by Tenlar Scarflame »

And thus I return, after a very, very extended leave of absence. :roll:

Hey to everyone else who was involved with the old X3 Factional RP, I'm back- terribly sorry for disappearing the way I did, but I've only just got a breath of fresh air after finishing up final studio projects, exams, and looking for a summer job. There was certainly time to post around the forum, but the time really wasn't there to keep up the RP...

Hope there's some of you out there that are still interested in continuing. If so, I feel the story is far enough along that it needs a proper name ^^

... Anyone have any idea how we should pick this back up? I'm ready to get Adrian into deeper trouble :D

Tenlar! You're back!

Bloody hell. Took you long enough :P

As for picking it back up, where we left off seems a good enough place. Not sure if posting back in the original thread would be counted as necromancy, though, so perhaps it'd be best to just re-read what's happened so far and start a new thread.

Gardna is ready to... um. Crap. I've forgotten. It's been too long! lol.

Looking forward to the Resurrection!

Lol, it did indeed take me long enough :P

I think at last check, the good Admiral reluctantly agreed to sign up Gardna in a mission to return the Omega Glory plans (or device) to Gencore control. Marcus has just contacted the lackeys of the Baron of Danna's Chance and has been directed to meet up with T'ach and his boys, after having a short brush with Adrian, who is now in the company of Francisca Moor, captain of Gencore's GTAS Resonant, trying to figure out what the bleep is going on. ^^

A new thread might be in order, though I'm pretty sure a lot of necromancy happens in this here Creative Forum; people disappear like me a lot :roll:

glad to see onboard again, SOTS :D

*Back* onboard? I never left! :P

... Even if I did kinda give up on it when everyone else stopped posting ;) I think it was just fiksal and myself, at the end.

Hmmm... any sign of AJK around? At the very least I had some ideas about the Omega that I wanted to share with him...

I've actually been working on my cast of characters off-line somewhat, and I've had a few interesting ideas about the nature of the Omega Glory. The Khaak have their giant death laser, the Xenon have their reverse-terraformer... the Omega Glory could be... something else. :twisted:

I doubt that will count as necromancy, I'd vote for continueing the original thread.

I think my last post was supposed to deal with a Xenon attack, since that probably happens there from time to time.
And Marcus getting drunk and/or depressed and/or bored :roll:

AJK already explained what the OG did. Essentially uses the gate network as a weapon - you can open a wormhole anywhere. You could be anywhere in the universe, deploy it, and destroy planets, stations, ships, with total immunity.

I can't remember the exact explanation, but it makes enough sense for me to be happy :) It's in the story somewhere, fairly near the beginning. Just after Gardna nabs it from Gencore, I think.

Maybe you could end up jumping Gardna once he has it and is on the way back to Gencore, if you're in the neighbourhood. I'll get back to you on that, I still need to write up that chapter.

Just a suggestion :)

if everyone wants it so much, that's definetly something that Marcus would do, once he learns of its existance.

it seems to me while Marcus attempts to make money and make other people respect him, he's probably a kinda guy who gets pushed into situations, rather than (intentionally) creating them.

an unlikely hero, or just right? :wink:

Sorry men! Saw this last night, computer decided it wouldn't take the strain on the keyboard from a revival and promptly crashed :P

Anyway, I'm fine with a revival, only I wouldn't mind if a Mod or ADMIN said it was ok, and I'm great with the idea of restarting all this :D

Also, for future reference this is what the Omega Glory can do.

The plot for it is me and Kardrin found an Ancient One computer on a planet on the deep fringe of known space. Unfortunately the Xenon also found out, and atomized the planet trying to steal the information which our heroes just managed to escape with. After eight (Might be less, can't remember every detail about that thread so long ago) years they deciphered a tiny, tiny part of the information contained, which was about the inner workings of the ancient jump gates. While the actual technology involved was impossible to replicate, GTA did learn enough to know what actually controlled the quantum projectors, or more to the point, how they where able to lock onto another gate. Armed with this info it was now possible to create a crude signal jammer/interference device which could hack into the targeting array and miss-direct the coordinates. The result is something along the lines of a mini black-hole, totally worthless as anything other then a weapon, and it has truly horrific potential as one. With enough hacker devices gates could be used to rip apart entire planets by creating vortexes inside the crust, or inside the hulls of ships and letting the quantum distortions simply erase them from existence.

sell it to a highest bidder,
pack your bags and relax on a beach in Argon Prime, with lots of high class escorts

...someday :twisted:


anyone wants to participate in the Xenon attack by the way? Tenlar, we still cant work in Tach into that, I wasnt excluding the meeting.

Good seeing AJK and Fiksal onboard again :D

As far as the Omega... certainly, staying with the nuts and bolts functioning of the device is definitely a go. But what I'm saying is... what does it LOOK like? How does it interface with a human? And what, besides ripping apart capital ships, planets etc., can it do for someone who's using it? :twisted:

@AJK, I'll PM you with an interesting idea regarding that. It is your baby after all, and given that Adrian's under 'arrest lite' I'm not in much of a position to argue with the good Admiral :roll:

As for Adrian, I imagine that he'll probably be "requested" by Gencore to assist in tracking down T'ach, seeing as his and other pirates' activities seem to coincide with the Glory's theft. And Adrian knows T'ach better than most.

@Fiksal, T'ach can definitely be involved in a Xenon attack- gives him lots of great chances to be downright scurvy. :pirat:

First post of Part 2 has been put up. Can't really consider it necromancy if it's still on the same page :roll:

Anyway, this ought to set the stage and get things rolling again.

So the power was out between 15:00 yesterday and 11:20 this morning- this gave me time to begin a pretty good drawing of Thrk St'st. :D I'll scan it and put it up soon. I'm hopefully going to do a photoshop painting of it. I may do other characters as well (other peoples' too, upon request and with full knowledge that I'm not a terrific artist ;) )
