IrishTree is having issues with posting, so he's told me to post these.
He's see fit to grace us with the ability to make teachers for the various courses at Beacon, so if half of us is doing nothing, the other half can do class-stuff. There's a class list, if you want to suggest more classes, go ahead.





Ineko stopped and thought for a second, he wasn't sure either. He let out an audible 'hmm', and his drones launched from his back. Hovering in various places in the room, they seemed to examine the new home and the people in it, primarily the resting Gideon and standing Beliya. Ineko meanwhile, was searching his boxes for a marker and some paper. Pretty soon, he found a large marker and some sheets of paper, along with some duct tape. He made a beeping sound and one of his drones flew close to Ineko, who wrote the words "Are we allowed to leave campus today?" on a sheet of paper, then taping it and the marker to the drone.
"Go find a professor or a staff member." He told the drones, Ineko then opened the door and they flew out. After they all left, Ineko then said, "Now we wait." He got back to organizing his crates.

After a few minutes, the drones came back. In big letters, "NO" was written on the back of the paper. Ineko took off the marker and paper then held it up for Beliya to see, "That answers our question. What now?"

Shall I start the IC, or is anyone still waiting on approval?


I think we're all good to go.

EDIT: Edited in amateur cooking and woodworking into my character sheet. So he knows how to chop down a tree and make a small log house for himself, and to cook up the stuff he finds in the wild.
EDIT2: Edited in some additional details to the equipment section.

The appearance of the colony?It looks like a NASA-themed trailer park/shantytown, (which is technically what it is). It was constructed by dropping a daisy cutter into a forest (they checked for sentient organisms first, don't worry), and then having people enter pods to land onto the crater. The landing modules were then disassembled and turned into "Housing Cubicles". Living conditions are on par with long-term RV camping. Food and water are currently rationed, but are usually present. In good times, you'll see flea markets show up selling home made goods, with people playing instruments in the street.If all goes well, Zion will strike it rich and become a bit more suburban (and then regular-urban) in its appearance.


Are there other buildings aside from the NASA Modules? I was thinking since the colony is essentially surrounded by forest, that wood based structures would also be present. Like a wooden tavern/trading post, cabins, that sort of thing.
Edited in a small pot into my character rucksack.

So he can make soups or stews if he wants, just notifying.
So uh...
Are we accepted?
Hope there's room for one more.

-"Monday", a custom built heavy .44 Magnum revolver, handed down to Wintergreen by his father.
-Modified Derringer, a small caliber, single shot compact gun built to be hidden underneath the sleeves of clothing. This Derringer is always meant to be concealed, even when firing. The user does have to be careful not to shoot their own hand however.
-Rucksack and belts, containing a basic medical kit, a reusable water container with its own filter, a firesteel spark lighter, non-perishable foods, a small pot, ammunition, and some extra room for whatever is needed to be stored.

-Amateur Woodworking/Lumberjack, he's got the muscle to chop down trees, and the skill to make a small wooden cabin for himself. He's also able to make tables, chairs, simple stuff like that. However, he's unable to make more intricate wood based things.
-Adept Xerian and Human martial arts, by no means a master, but he can get the job done, or hold his own until someone comes and helps.
-Adept Marksmanship, by no means a sniper. However, he's really accurate with his pistols. With a rifle, he's also pretty good, but a Sniper will always outshoot him.
-Master Gunslinger, he's got a very quick fast draw. He's called one of the fastest guns in the frontier.
-Master Survivalist, practically being raised around the wild, he's got innate knowledge of how to survive indefinitely on the land.

Bio:
Born from his father, a Human Patrol Officer and later a Hunter, and his mother, a Xerian Huntress, Jackhi was a mistake. Mostly because neither of his parents knew that they could have a child together. And neither did the Doctors. On both sides.

However, despite that, his father and mother still loved him unconditionally. However, as a child, he was less loved by his peers at school. Due to his peculiar skin and eyes, he was often bullied by the school bullies. To remedy this, his parents taught him both their respective hand-to-hand fighting styles. They may or may not have been trying to one-up each other to see which one Jackhi liked more. To their mild despair, he liked both, and tried to mix both styles, although they did not meld together well at first he eventually did learn how to mix the two into one years later. Equipped with the fundamentals of martial arts, he soon became a rather troublesome child to the school. He was often sent to the Principals office for fighting, never throwing the first punch, and usually winning. He soon gained the reputation of being a rebel, which didn't bother him much.

In his teenage years, his mother began to teach him how to fight with a blade, and his father began to teach him how to shoot, as well as finishing up his martial arts training. In school, he went from the victim of bullying to the cool mysterious outsider nobody messes with unless they want a broken jaw. By this time, he had gained a couple of friends, and a couple of girls interested in him. Frankly he was and still is as dense as a neutron star. He never got a girlfriend. But he did learn how to shoot a revolver, so I guess that sort of balances out. The important part of his teenage years is that his parents began to take him on hunts. This is where he picked up his survival skills.

After he graduated school, he became an independent Hunter. Hunting wildlife and bringing back meats, fruits, nuts, and various other edibles to the colony. He learned that he could make some money by getting furs, so he did. After earning some money, he had bought some gear, a new mask which doubled as a helmet, and began to venture further and further away from the colony. He hunted rarer wildlife, bringing back rarer meats, and much rarer furs, hides, and other items he could sell. During his hunts, he sometimes came across bandits and outlaws. Most of whom wanted to rob or kill Jackhi, most of them died, and this is when he learned that he could earn some money for Bounty Hunting. He decided against perusing it though, but if a bounty is right in front of him threatening to kill or rob him, Jackhi would turn into a bounty hunter, albeit temporarily.

When his father saw the progress his son was making, he handed Jackhi his pistol. Monday. A custom built, high caliber, heavy hitting durable six shooter, which he uses to this day. His mother actually didn't give him anything, since she expected him to make it this far. Sometime before, he was captured by a couple of criminals who wanted to ransom him for cash. After escaping and collecting a couple thousand in bounty, he had his modified Derringer created by a good friend.
Despite his reputation as one of the fastest guns in the frontier and thanks to his helmet, everyone in the hunting community assumes Jackhi is human. Due to the rarity of Hybrids surviving past childhood, and that whenever asked, Jackhi just says he prefers the mask rather than pills.
Darn, a day late.

Claiming my place as 2nd in line.

"Unfortunately no solid proof, but a coupleof indicators. For one, I can't talk to it." He said, "Well, I can sort of. But I have no idea what it's talking about. I'm working on translating it, but it's coming out slow. I'm not a linguistics expert." He shrugged. He got up and looked at his pile of stuff, "We should really get some tables. How about right now? Hit the town real quick."
"Fascinating...I'd honestly never have imagined you to have such interests...but, I'm curious, why biomechanical life? Is there even evidence to support such a thing existing naturally?" Beliya asked,
"Biomechanical life would solve lots of problems around here. If we need to expand our walls, just plant seeds in a perimeter and watch a metal wall grow from out of the ground. If we need defenses, plant a seed in the ground and it will grow into a plant that hunts Grimm. Biomechanical prosthetics that allow the feeling of touch, the possibilities are endless." Ineko explained, "And this I suspect is biomechanical." He said, raising his chin again, showing his synthetic throat once more, "If it can be artificially created, chances are it can be made to grow in a natural fashion."
