Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Entrance
"And you're looking to join Remnant?" She asks with a bit of obvious skepticism. "You'll have to turn over all weapons before being allowed in."Last edited by UncleWolf; 2011-06-07 at 10:27 AM.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
At the very least, I want to get a decent look around.
Grant says as he takes his new knife from his belt. He then shakes his left leg so that his other knife falls out from the hidden pocket near his shin. He then takes his hand gun off of his belt as well and offers it to the guard.
I think that's everything.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Gate
"You'll be escorted to the Interview room, where someone will be waiting, but beyond that, you won't be given access to anything." The guard states as her companion retrieves the weapons. Those on the walls and towers seem to shift a bit towards the gate's direction.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Why is it that those men get closer to this position after I'm disarmed? Because it's a hundred times more likely that I'm gonna go crazy now that I have no weapons.
Grant says as he looks up at the walls.
Anyway, I suppose we should get moving.Avatar by Crimmy

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Gate
After a new pair of guards arrive, also a man and a woman, the previous set will guide Grant into the compound and towards the Interview room, where a person in a set of heavy bronze colored power armor awaits.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Interview Room
Grant won't be able to tell if it's a man or woman wearing the armor, and he'll notice that it's covered in hundreds, if not thousands of ornate etched lines and swirls. The figure is also not obviously armed, but if the size of the power armor meant anything, armed would be only a relative term. "Take a seat." Edijar says, his voice finally giving his identity away. "Why are you wanting to join?"

"No, it doesn't." He says as he leans back. "But I doubt that's your only reason for it. We don't exactly give the best pay around, if that's what you heard. So what is it?" The helmet tips a bit to the side, green "eyes" staring at Grant. "You don't remember me, do you, Grant?"

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
"So, from the sound of it, you're in trouble with HALO? If you can't work well within your own organization, how can I expect you to work here, where it's going to be much more restrictive? We don't hire mercenaries. We hire soldiers."

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Hang on, I never said I was a mercenary. That hurts. No offense to any mercenaries out there though. Who said I was in trouble with HALO? I never suggested that I was in trouble there.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Don't you just love when you don't actually have to type out that kind of thing?
Gustav nods, taking it all in. It's definitely an interesting state of affairs. The various organizations are particularly interesting, and dangerous.
"What is the hierarchy of the Remnant itself? Who are our superiours? Just as importantly, who will we be working with?"

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Interview Room
"Hmm...perhaps I mistook what you said." Edijar admits before running over the past few remarks in his head. "No, mercenaries don't get in trouble for working Inside, as long as they're registered and keep us in the loop. Look at NO. As well as abide by the laws of the city."
"Though, no matter what, we will have to contact Tobias or someone else who is at charge of HALO for the moment to speak with them and confirm your membership status with them. What is it you're hoping to do here?"
Meeting Room
"That mostly depends on what sort of unit you get yourself put into, or in charge of. You could easily be put into Intel and report to Hicks, or some other unit to report to someone else. All in all though, Commander Vasquez is the leader, followed by Edijar. He's the one who looks like a giant bronze...golem I think is the word for it here. Once you get in, learn and befriend a few people here. They'll watch your back. Period." Jyarl informs him before going to answer the last question.
"As for those we work with, again, it depends on the unit, but we try to keep friendly relations with a few of the ACROs and amiable terms with the others."
Testing Labs
"You'll find out once we're finished here." Bugs tells Feia.Last edited by UncleWolf; 2011-06-07 at 02:43 PM.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
If I was going to accept a job here, I would be doing something with regards to training. I've always been partial to teaching people when I get the chance.

"And what makes you think you're qualified to teach people combat?" Edijar asks, genuinely curious as he's one of those who takes a direct hand in the training system.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Back in the day I taught breaching and basic bearing and got my top ratings doing that. I used to do it pretty regularly when I was still actively in combat. I was more teaching a specialized skill since not all soldiers are going to need to know how to breach. Though everyone should know how to deal with house to house combat.
Grant says, not making any attempt whatsoever to sound impressive or act like anyone should be impressed.
I do that sort of thing still when I occasionally go on non HALO related missions.Last edited by DoomITP; 2011-06-07 at 03:30 PM.

"Since we protect a city, most units are trained in Urban warfare anyways. Some more so than others. Is there anything else that might set you apart from the standard fare?"

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Everyone does things differently. Learning methods from different people give the soldiers in the field a wider variety of skills to use. I might make something stay in their memory more than someone else who does the same thing for a different aspect of what we would be teaching.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Let's see... I can teleport, shoot blast of energy, I'm not easy to damage permanently, but because of the amount of energy required to do some of that stuff, I can't do a huge amount of in succession but by cutting back on energy blasts I can usually take more damage or teleport more often and vice versa.

Edijar nods and taps a small symbol on his wrist. "If you'll wait a while, we're running a background check on you. Is there anything you feel we should know beforehand?"

The Blue Creation nods and stands, offering its hand, though it suspects they won't shake. Doesn't hurt to be polite and try to undo some of the irritation caused by its master. "That is good to know. I believe we are done here, so, thankyou for your patience."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.

Bugs reaches out to shake the Creation's hand, but the other two are a bit wary. Unless he has anything else to say, the Creation will be guided out of the gate and Teleportation Blockers.

Three hulking robots make their way to the entrance of the HQ, waiting outside the gates. The one furthest left looks at the address on the recruitment poster it has. Yep, this is the right one. They await outside, waiting for the current inhabitants of the HQ to react.

The three Cylons will see that the place is perpetually guarded, and will be stopped at the front gate. "Do you need help?" The male asks.

The Blue Creation has the perfect diplomatic handshake. Somewhat firm, not too relaxed or tight, held for just the right length of time...geeze, you'd think it'd taken a course on the subject or something!
Blue follows them out quietly, then with a simple "Thankyou for your time, and your cooperation" walks a short distance away before being 'ported off to...wherever Affy sends his creations.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.
