Neo-Umbrella's Siberian Parking Lot "Looks clear. Move on in." As the last few mutants collapsed and the remaining security guards laid down their weapons, the Shadow Eternity commandos closed in to secure them and the warehouse. As they closed in, Second Lieutenant Julius Aldo took charge of enemy prisoner management. "You're with me, Unteralt. Take some electro-cuffs from my pack." he said, offering his pack as he manhandled the five surrendered guards into a close-knit formation. Complying with Julius' order, Private Bernd Bachmann reached in and plucked a set of ten metallic half-circles. When he placed a half-circle on both of a prisoner's wrists, the circles completed themselves with another half-circle hidden within the cuffs' casing and magnetically linked one to the other. When all the prisoners were safely secured, Julius spoke to them. His tone sounded incredibly bored and forced, scarcely concealing an ocean of contempt for protocol. "Ahem, attention prisoners of Shadow Eternity: you, through interfering with Shadow Eternity's motives, are now our prisoners of war. After a determined period of containment and evaluation, you will either be released to your home dimensions, given the choice to join Shadow Eternity in its glorious war against tyranny, or will be summarily executed. To prevent the latter option from being chosen, please... oh, by Zaius... just don't make our jobs any harder. Alright, tell me: do any of you have asthma or any other respiratory illness?" One of the guards raised his head and confirmed that he did have asthma. Julius looked to him and frowned. "Alright, looks like you boys are staying out of the warehouse. Any of you know of a guard house or a checkpoint? Something that's heated?" Meanwhile, at the warehouse's main entrance, Squads Delta and Beta had taken point at each side of the large garage door. Pelinal Jirich took a small extending megaphone out of his rucksack and spoke into it. "Attention hostiles in the warehouse: come out with your hands up or be neutralized. You have three minutes." At that, he pressed his back to the wall alongside his squadmates, and began counting down. Private Ronly Jones flicked the pin on his grenade with barely-concealed anticipation.

Updated the commando list with more info, just 'cuz.

In the end, Shadow Eternity is not in the business of large-scale conquering so I'm not sure it makes sense for this particularly. There'd have to be a specific object the Leader wants for her ultimate plan on a world for her to send people there, though her intentional vagueness probably makes it easy for people to assume that she wants some conquering to go down.

@VitaVitaAR

Wait, SE's missions are based entirely around whether the Great Leader needs something or not? That seems weird for such a large, active organization with so many generals, leaders, and commanders.

@Earnest Evans

When did this turn into Shadowrun? Also, I guess I'm back in or something.

@Lost Cause

Well, since Vita doesn't like Shadow Eternity taking things from happy-go-lucky settings and these organizations have been around for a while, it makes sense to me that they'd deal with any one of the many Shadowrun-based settings eventually.

Hampus the Red, Neo's Rooftop Umbrella "Alright... You, the one with the weird hat. Hold this man while we go down the stairs. I don't want him dying and messing up our disguise. Alright?" Hoisting the unconscious guard up on Clifford's back, the two slowly made their way down the stairs with much complaining and bickering. At the base of the stairs, Hampus took the guard down from Clifford and hoisted him up in front of Hampus. Opening the door to the warehouse by a crack, Hampus didn't see any immediately noticeable enemies. Hampus turned to Clifford and spoke in a concerned whisper. "Hey, should we go through this guy's pockets? Maybe he wrote his name down or he's got some reagents we can use." Cheat SE Commandos, Siberia's Neo-Facility Parking Lot The steady flow of hostiles seemed to be slowing down. Evidently, Umbrella couldn't afford to waste so many freaks. Jack Morgan, seeing a lull in the chaos, spoke into his headset. "Maintain current formations and wait for enemy forces to recede. When we get a chance, I want Squad Delta to clear the warehouse. Private Jones, you've got your CS Gas grenades this time, right?" "Sure do! I could just use that DMSO vapor grenade the eggheads spent so much time reverse-engineering, you know!" "Negative. We've got confirmation that VIP pod 2 has landed on the roof. Assuming they're doing their jobs, they'll be inside. We'll gas the building, and find them later. They're supposed to have gas masks, so they should be fine." "Sir, I've got confirmation of at least one other Roamer in the area. Big guy, got a hunk of metal and a crossbow for a weapon. Uh, he appears to have walked outside, killed a couple of biotics, and... went back inside." "Acknowledged. The plan will go ahead, but ensure that you recover his body. Any Roamer that big's gotta be prime material for recruitment."

I'd more than love to later, but right now I'm on another RP site and dedicating all my brain power to trying to remember all the arcs we've done in 2+ years on that one. In another note though, how do you feel about Krampus Hampus and co. "accidentally" running into big-bad Simmons?

@CourierSix

It'd be rather odd right now, since Hampus is on the surface and Simmons is supposedly in the designated boss arena at the bottom of the facility. Later on,a "fight" against Simmons would be perfect to really demonstrate the group's piss-poor problem-solving capabilities.

Massive Multiversal Crossover

I have a way to work through things. Trust me. Besides, the faction wouldn't have to solely be arc dependent. They can just be another presence in the neighborhood.

@CourierSix

I'm interested in seeing how you'd give guys like Danic and Alduin a presence in the multiverse. Feel free to PM me the details, and we can flesh this out.

Massive Multiversal Crossover

@CourierSix: Ah, right, um, well out of that list Frieza is right out at least. ^^; @Flamelord: Saber will thoroughly enjoy this.

@VitaVitaAR

I know. I'm perfectly fine with that. I really only included Frieza because I was trying to have pre-made characters for people to use if they wanted to be part of that faction. I'm cool with him being booted from the list.

@CourierSix

I can't really see how you can adapt the Didact or Alduin to a multiversal setting. That, and Zanik's main motivation would probably just be to seed the other universes with Brother Moons, which would be an arc that would either drag on forever or be ended in one grisly engagement. Still, a conflict with the Cold empire's planet-trading organization would be interesting, but it would have to completely exclude Freeza, Cooler, and the like.

Hampus the Red, Neo-Facility's Siberian Umbrella Factory's Roof Hampus was not at all surprised to see so many people agreeing with him. After all, a good plan gets good praise! Hampus was especially grateful to hear that he wouldn't have to bodily lift the unconscious guard, and instead would be leading him like a dog. A mortal muggle dog... One problem seemed to assert itself. Once again, Hampus demonstrated his deific knack for delegation by completely shirking the responsibility onto his more humble ally. "He's asleep! We need to get him up so he can lead us to that chess piece and the C-virus. Hero, think of something!" Hampus looked expectantly at Our Hero. Clearly, this relationship was going to be give-and-take.

In fact, I recall he sliced through the hide of a dragon made out of crystals in one chapter.

@IncredibleBee

Hmm... I wonder if that has anything to do with its name...
