I was thinking they'd meet Hal. Given that Hal (and the Varroi under his command) have a vested interest in denying the data to Lucy, then I could see them bringing Marius to Cooperative Earth to assault the blacksite themselves and destroy the data.

@Tank O The Lake

I'm very fine with this. Darkred's latest post is roleplayerguild.com/posts/5652062 if you want to kick off.

- These suborbital jets hit you pretty hard on ascent. Just... be aware of that.

*It's not hard to get into the terminal, and after a few letters stuffed with bills handed to the security personnel, they're through the baggage checks and screenings.*

- How's first class sound? Lucy's loaded, you know.

@Tank O The Lake

What better way to go undercover than undercover in style? Let's do it.

Myriad Reality

Sorry about that

@darkred

No worries. @Tank o The Lake did you want to rope darkred into the current events or do you want me to take their char in a different direction?

@TruckKun

Cool character! Any backstory?

Also, have you read the rules and post format guidelines on the first page?

Myriad Reality

@darkred

Here's what it would look like in our style:

*Falls through a portal only to find himself not in Rome, not the good one or even the corrupted one, but instead lands on a strange planet, lost in time*
Ubi sum?
*Carries a gladius, shield and an out-of-place gun*

Notice on this one it makes the actions direct and first-person, and removes the author's commentary? That's the direction we go.

@Etcetera

Ahhh so like
Touch:
Taste:
Sight:
Smell:

etc...

Like that format mostly?

@darkred

Getting there, but think of our style as a first-person movie script.

*Enters the busy saloon, buzzing with frantic patrons, and draws my gun with a clear look of frustration*
Hey there partner! Who said you could leave this town!?
*Walks over to the counter and slams my fist on its surface*

Anything in *action symbols* is considered free information for anyone at the right vantage point. e.g. Nobody can hear the thoughts of characters but they can derive information from their tone, expression, etc. You might have something in action symbols that characters aren't present for, e.g. *Vanishes into my pocket dimension and begins crafting a spell*, but the point is that everything stated is technically observable to anyone who might be present. Actions and dialogue are the two forms of interaction in MR, so no author commentary, asides, bonus info, etc.

Myriad Reality

Alright post made!

@darkred

Sweet, good to have you! Will need to format your post with our formatting (style guide is on the first page with the rules). We're easy, just treat ** as your "security camera footage" where you can record the 5 senses of characters, then everything else is dialogue.

Myriad Reality

Thank you.

@darkred

Still wanting to jump into the action? I haven't seen our friend Tank in a minute but we can work something out if so.

I'm impressed that this rp is still going on.

@Scarifar

Thanks! With any luck it will outlive us all

Myriad Reality

Hey, sorry about that!

@darkred

No worries, welcome back!

Myriad Reality

Hmmm, good point. No idea. If I find a motivation, I'll come back.

@Jimbo

Rad! Always open to brainstorming, so here's hoping we can find a place.
