The Council of the Damned: Anathema (Magic and Gods and Technology!) Still Recruiting!

Mere upstarts and usurpers when faced with the powers of old.

Nice work with the faction, a bit on the silly side but it will probably fit in well enough with the twisted machinations that have come to define the world.

@Klomster Just for clarification, this is a submarine/aircraft carrier? With no support vessels or friendly docks that could turn poorly fast. It will be amazing if it works but since you said the crew will have no idea whats going you are going to start in quite a pinch.

At times its as if the whole world is blind, people believing that their meaningless lives will continue in this doomed existence. Well in the land of the blind the one eyed man is king, and we the council can see. But I am not sure, I have done this dance before and found my partners to be lacking. They thought they knew me, no one truly knows me. Many will make the claim that they do but in truth they only know my earthly shell. My soul is between myself and the Reaper. But I digress. I was raised in the company of mercenaries, not very successful ones at that, they did however give me the right ideas when it came to power. So, I sought power. And no where does power run more freely than hell, it was simply a matter of being more clever then the current demon rabble, once I had power it was a simple matter of keeping it. All real challenge behind me I looked to the long term, that's where this new council came in. My fellow council members can see the inevitable that this blind world does not, what we do now we do not just to survive, but to flourish. The past has its place, do not ask of mine.

"Yes, very much so."

Nathan half helped, half hoisted Javier over to David before nearly collapsing on the small path.

*Huff* "You know-" *Huff* "When I took this job I didn't-" *Huff* "I didn't realize how different it would be from working on a space station."

After taking the minute to catch his breath Nathan took Javiers' other shoulder and the trio began back to the camp, sun nearing the horizon.

So I assume the USS Tulsa is from an alternate timeline, right? Or did they actually use airships in the Battle of the Atlantic? I can't say I've heard anything about them, if so.

@Iluvatar

The actual USS Tulsa was a gunboat but I'm assuming this is a coincidence. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Tulsa_(PG-22)

As for airships themselves, while not a major element in any army or doctrine they did see use mostly as patrol vessels in war.

He said he was going to rival with America and Japan for control over the pacific, since three way battles don't work well it could drive the elves to one of the alliances, and even if they don't the war could escalate forcing America or Japan to call in their allies. It's a World War after all.

It was a long, hard trod through the jungle, between having to carry Javier, a machete, and a hunting rifle Nathan was rather exhausted by the time David came into view. Javier was faring better with some light painkillers in him, but even with the splints and walking stick his leg would need some extra work.

"*Mutter* Oh thank Christ */Mutter* David? That you?"

"I don't know, maybe three? I'm not a woodsman. If you are at the camp already then head directly between the set of brambles to the north, behind that is a freshly cut trail through the foliage, we will meet you on it."

Half carrying Javier, Nathan set off towards the gentle incline, hunting rifle in his good hand.

Looks like this is going to be an early cold war.

While Nathan was relieved that both his radio had worked and this new ship was in fact help that meant whatever was wrong with his radio was intermittent, which had a bad habit of turning up at bad times.

"We have an injured Expedition member in need of surgery and I'm in the process of bringing him back to our base camp. Do you know if you are nearby? Any land marks?"

Nathan had walked around to the gentle incline and was helping Javier to his feet with the walking stick as he radioed. Between the splint and walking stick and some help Javier could probably be transported back to camp safely, if they went slow.
