On me to converse? Is Jericho going to wake up and talk, or keep him asleep? @RyanTadashi

@RabidAnubis@Liar BTW just checked, Ryan hasn't been seen online for 8 days. I suppose its up to Erik's input now? Leave Jericho asleep?

@Hexaflexagon I get you're doing DM/GM type stuff, but do you want your paladin to input anything before I post, or are you going for all reactionary right now?
Do whatever, I don't mind short posts when longer aren't feasible
Wow switch, that's a powerful character
Yes
I have the feeling that Kreel isn't going to like Ben very much...


That's fine, forces character development and it's not believable a group of people are always going to all like each other.

Also just noticed we lost our interrogator
I figure we only have like one channel, and the good inquisitor has multiple, which is why we didn't try to hail him?
Ben stepped into the lobby and looked around. The psyker asked the question that he was thinking, and he stepped forward, assuming command. The Pskyer wasn't a commander, and neither was Stukov. The kasrykin was new, and he didn't trust him yet, and Commissars weren't always capable commanders.

Ben had experience with units. They were usually in APCs, but he had led a platoon before.

"Alright. Fan out, find him. Pairs would work better, but no one is forcing it on you. Use your communicators. Squelch twice for help, sounds like this." Ben's communicator was in his glove, and he squeezed it twice, hotkeying the mic twice, making two short bursts of static. "If you can't get any words out, use that. If you can talk, do it. Do NOT break cover if you can help it. We might still be able to salvage this mission." Ben said. He looked around the Lobby and spotted a bar. "I'll be at the bar, providing a sort of lookout. Any questions?" Ben asked the group.

He sensed the Kasyrkin could possibly be doubting him. "I'm Sergeant Ben Duren. 5 Years on Armaggeddon, in service of the Emperor's finest army, the steel legion. Did a year as a Lieutenant." It served as his introduction to the Commissar and the trooper that he didn't know. Provided there were no questions, he waved them off. "Lets crack on." he said, looking around the room, as he headed towards the bar. He pressed the button in his glove, and brought his sleeve up to his mouth. "And if you get any premonitions, be sure to let us know, ma'am."

Safe to assume we have personal communicators? Like ear pieces?
Ben made his way to the lander and was last in. He nodded curtly to every, his face now fully visible. Those who hadn't seen it before would be greeted by a red lens for an eye and scar tissue around it, along with a beard that had probably lingered a day or two longer than it should of. His hair was slicked back, and shaved to the skin on his sides, and some lines could be seen reaching past his collar indicating tattoo work on his body, but nothing actually prominently visible.

The ride down wasn't so bad, much smoother than most rides in a Chimera. Ben rubbed his hands together, feeling the leather gloves he was wearing with his real hand. When the ship landed, he would follow Zhevon and the group out. He scanned around, the weight on his sword on his back, and the comforting warmth of his plasma pistol on his ribcage in his hidden holster under his jacket. Ben looked to the skyline, he wasn't too impressed. He had been to the upper hives of Armageddons cities a few times. They were like this. Just, they hadn't spread around a globe like a disease. Ben felt a familiar itch looking at all of it. Gambling was one of Ben's few vices, but they likely wouldn't have time to entice that. As he kept looking at the narrow pathways he saw greenskins running down narrow streets into imperial positions. He wiped the sweat from his brow and dismissed the idea.

When Zhevon descended, Ben would take the cards given to him, and pocket them. He heard the comments, and followed Stukov and Adrianne. Ben reached into his coat pocket and drew his plasma pistol, and thumbed a rune, prepping it for activation. He left the safety on, and returned it to the holster.
