"Over holiday?" he asked, in a musing voice. "In Canada?" White stared at her intensely for a moment. He finally spoke up, "I'm glad you thought to ask me now, so that I can brew the potion ahead of time. May I ask what led to this trip?"
"Uh, what?" Richard said as she hugged him. "What, like impersonation?" He called after her as she walked off, "I don't do impressions, River!"

"I don't know what that was about," he said when she had gone, "If she sees something we don't she should just fucking say it. I don't need more cryptic hints in my life."

Professor White was at his desk, John the Raven was standing on the desk, eating little bits of bacon off of White's breakfast plate. He looked up from his uneaten food and put his fork down.
"Of course," he said by way of greeting, "You have a headache." It wasn't a question, he pointed to his own head, "Right about here. There's nothing I can do about it, should go away within the day." When she didn't immediately go away he looked back up at her, "Is there something else on your mind?"
I think we ought to skip to the morning soon.
Hold on, I think we're all a bit lost on the plot. I'm gonna backtrack, and try to remember. It's a shame we lost so much text and data when the first site went down.
Well one idea I had was this:
Military/peace keepers/law enforcement might have particularly powerful ANCIs that use an outside power source(is this normal?). They try to prevent or redirect the worst of ANC overload symptoms with heat sinks, but the greater amount of power still basically guarantees neural degeneration. As such, people in these roles have much shorter life spans, and not just because of the potentially violent nature of their jobs.

My other idea was a separate, isolationist colony that is ruled by an oligarchy, which systematically suppresses certain knowledge, particularly that of ANC technology. This ruling class uses ANCIs to appear as gods to the lower class.
May we create our own colonies/cultures, or else suggest them to you?
I'm still reading the lore, but I'm interested so far. Very well thought out.
Do you have an interest check here and in Advanced to see who bites more?
I've definitely already written that at some point.

I'm really sorry, guys, to drag you all out for so long and then do this, but I have to drop this game.

I've had to take a second job to keep my bills covered, and I just can't run a game, especially one with as much plot as I have planned.

I'm still posting on the site, so you'll see me around, just not as a GM.
Bumping. I didn't get the info up on the first page as quickly as I would have liked.
