NEW VINDICATORS (Full - OOC)

"You to can pick up chicks like me. I will teach you how to dress, how to talk, how to draw attention to your groin, and how to be irresistable to the ladies.
Just like me.
All it will cost you is 29.99 for your copy of Viktor's Video-Guide to Voluptuous Vixens."

[Tattooedman]

Exactly!

I'm kind of waiting for Jason to do what the IT instructor has done. Plug in a computer into his mind so he can hack/surf the web while doing things in the real world.

Well, that's where he got the idea for his inhibitor, but it would take something really drastic for him to consider that-he considers Jesus to be something of a cautionary tale.

Maybe if his body were horribly mangled in, say, an airship crash or something like that.

[Arkrite]

Wait, Jesus had cyber implants?
... either the bible is cooler than I'd imagined or the IT teacher's name is Jesus... ;~)

I think the next step in the game is determining what course of action the team takes. Lex, Kas, and Otso, upon suiting up, will have seen the others getting ready, suggesting that a small army will be going up, so how do you proceed from here? Which idea do you try to run with?

[Arkrite]

I don't know.
The psychic flying concept could be fun, but if Jason refuses we'r at limited options there.
Of course Viktor was also taught how to fly so we could always grab him for the psychic-blindman-flying approach.

Failing that, I suspect Lex is going to try to get either Kas or Jack to get him to the island, any means nessessary... which works better than the "I wonder if I can run up a building fast enough to reach the island" idea ;~)

As for the army, the question becomes: Could they all come with should a plane be available?
I suspect the defining problem against keeping them away is that if they could come they'll probably fight to do so, and with time being of the essance I don't think anybody's going to argue too hard.

Anyways, I'll try to get a post up later.

As for the army, the question becomes: Could they all come with should a plane be available?

The school has a private plane capable of taking the handful of students up there.

[Arkrite]

So is "a handful" all of the ones that want to go, or only ten/fifteen/etc?

[Michuru81]

You will not have to turn away volunteers.

[Arkrite]

Okay, plan B, we inform the volunteers that they will get kooties if they come with us, that should thin the herd ;~)

[flynnarrel]

Martin kooties, those are the worst - French and slimey.

Something I've found helpful with my other games, has been keeping a player accessible list of dangling plotlines. I'll link this post from the front page for reference. If you see something that should be here, but isn't, feel free to call me out on it.

• (NVAE #4) Who is Chuck Faustus? - Semi-resolved: He's a magus trying to set off the Second Blood War.
  
  (NVAE #5) Is the scroll Savateuse tried to steal important, or just valuable?
  
  (NVAE #5) How did Presto and Savateuse, respectively, escape from Pandora?
  
  (NVAE #6) Do any of the students actually have a Lacuna seed in them, or was Lacuna bluffing? - Semi-resolved; Parabola's seed triggered upon her firing Armin's gun; it is unseen if there are others.
  
  (NVAE #7) Where is Tallemaja? - Semi resolved: Greystone fought Tallemaja on Laputa; Chuck Faustus seems to think Tallemaja's hiding at the school.
  
  (NVAE #8) How did Armin know about Novichok agent--something a little too outside his pay grade? - Resolved: Armin is an MI6 agent whose assignment is to protect Kirstie.
  
  (NVAE #8) What's the deal with Armin's accent? - Resolved: see above
  
  (NVAE #9) What did Isaac Newton whisper to Tatjana?
  
  (NVAE #10) How did Tallemaja know about Elfriede? - Semi-resolved: If Chuck Faustus is right about Tallemaja hiding at the school, she may have saw Jack and Elfriede together at the dance.
  
  (NVAE #10) Who shot Lacuna?
  
  (NVAE #10) What did Tallemaja steal from Chuck Faustus?

I say, we survive this first...then worry about dangly bits.

Of courser it should be interesting to see how Michy uses Vlad and Leo, since both were planning on betraying Laputa, but both have to figure out a way to do it without activating the Lacuna seed within them. Then there's the implanted bombs to worry about.

Maybe Vlad can "defend" the power plant and get Lex to blast him to death, setting off the bomb, compromising Laputa's power systems. More likely they'll just get nerfed and end up in Pandora...the "escape proof" prison. Honest it is. Just ask Presto and Savateuse.

[Arkrite]

Honestly, I'd rather not run into Vlad.

As fun as it would be to blow up an entire island trying to get Vlad I've never been very comfortable with the concept of an encounter with him.
NPC, yeah, I'd knock him for a loop.
Former PC... uh... not really comfortable with that.



As for the picture thing, I forgot I hadn't explained, a few months back a new artist was around offering some cheap commissions and I had a few extra dollars at the time, so I got a comission of the active players at the time, and a PC of the GM's choice as Eld decided to decline.
As such we have some pictures of Jack, Otso, Emily, Tat, and Martin.

Or kind of. Like I said, the artist went silent a few months back and I haven't seen hide nor hair of him since. What with the giant storm, and his proximity to said storm, I'm hoping that's the issue and that we'll get some finished inked work at some point in the future.

I stil love the liquidy Martin pic. The expression is spot-on too.
