Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Training Room
A tall man with metal tubes poking out of the flesh of his neck as they creep along his jugular towards his head enters the room, giving her a glance before heading to his locker. The man is obviously a born and bred soldier. He strips, ignoring her, before pulling on his new armor. Unlike other Remnants', Jyarl's armor is mostly black, and lacks the cape. However, his helmet is shaped into a human's skull, and his left shoulder plate is as well, but blood red instead of black. Short sharp spikes poke out of his knees and elbows once he pulls it on. It seems they're retractable.
Once dressed, he lets the the lower half of his helmet slide away, showing a smirk as he gets used to it. The leader of the Penal Company slowly makes a fist a few times, learning the feel of the suit. "Perfect..." He says out loud, obviously enjoying it.
Ceremony Chamber
Taul nods and will begin to chant in Nordic. Zefir should feel a pressure around his body and mind, as if ropes and chains are looping around him. It takes several minutes, but by the end, the feeling will tighten before passing into him, as if it gets absorbed into his body. Taul will stop and give a nod when finished. It's a powerful spell, and it might take a few weeks IC for Zefir to "get used to it".Last edited by UncleWolf; 2011-04-26 at 01:10 AM.

Taul chuckles a bit. "Because I'm not a mage. I'm a priest, a cleric. My magic works in other ways." He tells Zefir. It's partly untrue, since many resistance items work on the Divine as well as Arcane, but it sounded good at least.

"It just felt simular to arcane spell, even if I'm not really aware of the difference. Magic is Magic and I don't really like Magic user at all."
With that he tends to go searching for someone other, he wants to know how he can conntect them and all.Grammer is my declared deadly enemy!

Taul will raise a hand to stop Zefir from leaving just yet, and pulls out a bundle, offering it to him. "A comm device and emergency beacon are inside. You can use the first to contact us when you have to, and the second in case you get into danger. Use it sparingly though, and only in emergencies."

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Meeting Room- Terrowin
"Very well. This is the address of the Inside Temple." Terrowin writes down (if the materials are provided; if not, he'll tell Fred) 45 Enirshon Row, Null Zone. It's quite a nice residential district, and much as the Elpmeton Road facility, there's no evidence that the Temple's there. The Cult is good at hiding.
Infirmary- Rebecka
"Thank you." Rebecka takes the potion and drinks it, her face lighting up when she tastes it. "It feels so good to taste again." Even if Rebecka doesn't like the taste of what she's tasting.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

Taul shrugs. "Is there anything else?"

Fred will provide pen and paper. "Now, what evidence do you have of Din murdering your friend?" He asks before pausing. "And what were you planning on doing with Rebecka?"
Infirmary
Arla can't help but smile. It'll taste sweet, and a bit thick, but far from unpleasant. She'll offer her a few more potions like it. "Just take one a day, and it should help you regain all of it."Last edited by UncleWolf; 2011-04-26 at 05:17 PM.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Meeting Room
"Reverend Gertrude had previously managed to convince Din to tell us all her plans concerning us and Gertrude conveyed them to me immediately through an Orb of Brotherhood- a magical communication device we use. Reverend Gertrude, just before her death, informed us she was speaking with Din again to try and get more details. When she was found, she was dead with apple leaves and twigs in her ears, as well as her nasal passages and throat; we know that Din is a practitioner of nature magic, especially plants, because we have had encounters before. Reverend Gertrude's magical dress, ring of poison immunity, purse and other valuables were still there, apart from two- the ring to which her Orb of Brotherhood was mounted and her silver holy symbol. So whilst we have no solid proof, I and other clerics would swear upon our personal prayerbooks that it was Din. As for Rebecka, I was going to continue use her around the Temple, fetching and carrying, summoning to audiences and keeping the Temple clean until she died." The prayerbooks are personalised by being cut from the skin of the cultist's back during a certain ritual, and thus mean quite a lot to the owners. All of it is true, unless I've forgotten something.

"Speaking of which..." Fred pages someone outside the door, and after a moment, the books and box they recovered from the temple are brought in, still sealed. "They've been untouched except for safety precautions to ensure the magic didn't try to escape the books." He says, offering them to Terrowin. "While we can take care of Din, it will help if we had witnesses. Do you know any that were there?"
Infirmary
"I am not your master or mistress, so you have no need to please me, but yes, you did, by following the instructions I gave you, and for being so patient." Arla offers after a moment's pause to consider how to react.

"Thank you. I'd wondered where that book had gone. Don't worry; the binding came from a volunteer. I don't know if there's any witnesses, but it occured in the Black Dragon's Den. Anybody who did see what happened won't tell a policeperson." The book was authored by Jorje Hargonnen, who also donated the binding. The Black Dragon's Den also makes things more difficult, I think.

Rebecka nods slightly, thinking, before turning to Arla and asking another question. "Then... Whose am I now if not yours?"Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
[Outside the Gates]
Just beyond the reality lock, Feia and the white creation snap into existence, without much fanfare.
Hopefully the soldiers have enough sense to withhold fire from the creation, while Feia is present.
Little ectoplasmic restraints have been placed on the creation, mostly for the comfort of the soldiers. Nothing excessively uncomfortable for the creation."Fear and creativity are conjoined twins."

Gate
The guards don't shoot, and after a moment, Edijar is waiting at the gate for her and the Creation.
Meeting Room
"We do have a few sources we can rely on." Fred tells Terrowin, but refusing to tell who. Though, hopefully Raril would cooperate. "Is there anything else you need to tell us before we run what will be a thorough investigation?"
Infirmary
"No one, but you can continue to serve Terrowin if you wish." Arla tells her. "I believe you can go back to him now if you want."

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
[Outside the Gates]
The White Creation tests its bonds briefly, then shrugs and starts walking forwards.
If Edijar or anything the Remnant have set up at the gate can detect such things, they'll notice a very faint, constant release of magical energy by the Creation. Not a spell of any sort, just...causing it to glow slightly.Before you criticise someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticise them, you'll be a mile away and you'll have their shoes.

Aliz, the male combat mage is nearby, and he gives Edijar a couple short gestures, and he nods back to the mage. "How'd you get it?" he asks Feia.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Sue's Quarters
Alice wakes up without an alarm. She's been in the military long enough for that to be unnecessary. For a moment, she's a bit confused. It had been a long time since she'd spent the night with a man. She'd had some encounters since her second marriage ended, but she'd always gone home to her own bed afterwards.
She snuggles closer into Sue's arms. She'd almost forgotten how good it felt to be held.
Machine Shop
Later in the morning, Sunny arrives at the shop. So much work! So much armor to be customized. And the teleporters - she has to work out how they work. She has become something of a workaholic. If it weren't for having Carl and Archer to go home to, she probably wouldn't leave the lab at all.
Fortunately for her, the stress of wedding planning is non-existent, as it doesn't occur to her at all that it requires any more planning than would be needed to plan for a special date.Last edited by happyturtle; 2011-04-27 at 01:13 PM.

As soon as Sunny arrives, a trio of large panther like creatures swarm her, rubbing and nuzzling against her, purring. Stheno and her sisters were obviously pleased to see her.
Sue's Place
Sue's already awake, but hasn't moved, just holding his lover close. She'll feel that his breathing and heart is slow and calm. "Thank you..." He murmurs to her.

Motor Pool
She'll see the three Sirens look up at her before heading back to bathing and resting in their heated pools. There's a new sign nearby saying "Do Not Attempt To Fraternize With".
The scary part? It's needed.
Geoff holds up a hand to stop the goblins. "I really don't want to know what you're planning with that, are you?"
Sue's Quarters
Sue gives a throaty growl at the kiss before giving her a squeeze. When he sees the time, he sighs. "It's almost time, isn't it?"

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ

Sunny will find that the mechanical legs are very simple. It looks like it's intentional.
Grimzig, meanwhile, turns to Geoff. It's a little side project of ours. I figure it might be a useful addition if we get it to work, especially since you guys have less troops than you used to. Oh, and it's just sand in the barrel.Last edited by Morty; 2011-04-27 at 02:03 PM.

Geoff shakes his head. "What is it?" he asks them, needing to know in case he has to file accident reports.

Sue gets up as well, pulling together the stuff for his uniform and passing her the dress. He gives her a quick kiss when he hands it over. "Any time, I won't mind."

"Same," Delisle says with a smile, pulling on her dress, and then twisting her hair into a makeshift bun. She knows she'll be seen leaving his place, and gossip will spread, but somehow it seems to her that it will appear less disreputable if no one else sees her with her hair down.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
"The Lord Professor sent me here willingly when Feia made her intention to bring me here clear. After all, he has been quite willing to talk, if you'd ever bothered to ask to talk. Instead, he's been rather under the impression that attempting to do so would be a waste of a creation as at best it would be returned in pieces."
...wait.
Why does he even need to ask?
The creation falls silent as Affidavit ponders whether they're merely unaware of how powerful Feia is, or if it was some sort of silly test. Perhaps he shouldn't have had the White Creation say anything, in case she wanted to show off.
Oh well. Too late for that now.Before you criticise someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticise them, you'll be a mile away and you'll have their shoes.

"As far as I am currently aware, no. If I later discover more later, I will tell you. Just so you are aware, we will be resserecting Reverend Gertrude, so she might be able to tell you more." Always handy, having the victim able to identify the perp in cases of murder. Although the judge/jury/court might need evidence she'd actually died.
