[Nexus] GLoG 86

[Gullara]

Please read as far as the double lines before posting in this thread

The Good League of Good is a Nexus organization devoted to the redemption of evildoers and the care and support of those in need. If you are looking to smite evil, please check out HALO or WATCHTOWER.

If you are brand new to ffrp, please come to the Nexus OOC thread and introduce yourself. We all want to meet you!

A Brief History of GLoG:

Spoiler

Show

You know what this OP needs? A brief history of GLoG. Which would have to be written by one of the few people who were around from the beginning. Any volunteers?

Our Redemption Program:

Spoiler

Show

Individuals who come in search of redemption should be interviewed by a member to see how their needs can be best met, and then assigned to a mentor who will assist them. Graduation from the redemption program will occur when both the redemee and his/her mentor agree that they have made sufficient progress.

Other Charitable Activities:

Spoiler

Show

In addition to the redemption of evildoers, the organization performs other good works such as caring for distressed individuals in need, housing and feeding evacuees from the city during disasters, and healing sick and injured people in GLoG's infirmary - renowned as the most advanced place of healing in the Nexus.

Attention villains:

Spoiler

Show

Conflict is great! It's the heart of any story, and there isn't much to roleplay without it. However, as a player to player courtesy, please check in with the players who are active at any given time before launching an attack. Not everyone wants to roleplay combat scenes, and sometimes there are other things going on that players don't want to interrupt for a random fight. Either a PM/IM to players, a short post in thread to say ((Mind if I introduce a villain here?)) or a longer post in the OOC thread if it's a larger plot is appreciated.

Also, please don't plan any villainy that will result in destroying the base or having the same effect (poisoning the lake, burning down the forest, etc.) without the consent of the majority of the players who would be affected.

Base Defences:

Spoiler

Show

he GLoG campsite is now under the effects of the spell Plaza of Downcast Eyes. Almost all teleportation and scrying spells are blocked.

A Spirit Charm has been placed on the GLoG grounds. A number of willing spirits serve to protect the grounds. See the Miscellaneous Inhabitants section for more information.

There is a perimeter of cactus plants to encourage anyone on foot to enter by one of the main entrance points.

If any of your characters add more defences, please PM them to Gulaghar so they can be added.

======================================

If you're a newbie, and you've read this far, you should know enough to join in the fun.
Everything beyond this point is Bonus Material.

Description of the new GLoG setting:

Spoiler

Map:

By Gulaghar

After the original GLoG building was destroyed by an army of catpeople, the survivors took out a mortgage and purchased Phoenix Lake Campground. Facilities include the main lodge house, a bathhouse with separate male and female sections, a stable (one horse present, a chestnut mare named Fancy owned by Dr Burnett), various picnic shelters, and a few scattered cabins. It's set in the foothills of the Acro mountains, and mainly surrounded by woods. There are many hiking trails nearby leading to mountaintop vistas, waterfalls, seacoves, and various other locations, both within this thread, and in the Outside thread. The campground is also within easy walking distance of the city of Inside, though there is also a Riftline station just outside the campground for those who prefer to take the train or who have farther to go.

At the lake, there is a small dock with a little shed nearby where a few canoes and paddleboats are stored. The swimming area has a GIANT slide and a rope swing. Because GIANT slides and rope swings are awesome. There is a sandy volleyball court not far from the slide, a playground under the trees, set back from the lake somewhat, and a set of horseshoe pits.

Buildings:

Show

Main Lodge: This large building contains an industrial kitchen with a cafeteria style serving area, and an open space that was once used as the dining hall. The space is warmed by a massive fireplace. Bunk beds are lined up on one end of the hall, opposite the kitchen, and a few comfy chairs and sofas are beginning to appear around the fireplace as they are procured. The building itself is made of stone.

Bathhouse: This building is divided into the men's and women's bathhouses, with entrances at either end. It has shower stalls, a line of sinks, and toilet stalls in each.

Cabins: Individuals can have their own room within a cabin, but they are unlikely to have a full cabin to themselves unless they come equipped with a family. Some of the cabins have been rebuilt, so may have more space than the 4 room cabins the campground came with, and a few cabins have had private bathrooms installed. All cabins are named after trees, and players are free to invent further details about their own cabins.

• New cabins can be added to this list as needed; just pick a tree name and start posting for it. PM Gulaghar to have it added to the official list.
  
• Cabins coloured green are currently unavailable for new inhabitants, with the reason listed next to the cabin name. Typically this means a cabin is occupied by a family or has all its rooms filled.
  
• The bolded buildings are not cabins of the usual sort and are not usually occupied by normal members. Few exceptions exist.
  
• Visitor's Cabin - Apple is reserved for visitors who do not want to stay at the lodge. They are requested to check in at the main lodge, where any member can give them permission to stay for a few days. Longer than that, and unless they are in need, they would be requested to either join or move to their own place or one of the local inns.

Workshop: A well built cabin designed by Reelshka, containing nothing at present but the Mainframe installation. It is locked. Drones fly in and out of a small entrance that opens for them when they send an encrypted signal.

Infirmary: If no PC is present in the Infirmary, patients are tended to by Nurse Piper, a ghost NPC who haunts the infirmary. Despite being a ghost, she is solid enough when managing anything to do with nursing. She has a tyrannical bedside manner, but will always put the welfare of her patients first. She is able to generally stabilize patients and do general nursing care, but cannot provide magical healing or any type of advanced medicine that would normally be performed by a doctor.

PC healers include:
Quinn (The Bushranger) - doctor and paladin
Tobias (Firefox) - druid healer
Dr Adrian Rein (Murkus) - doctor

(PM the keeper of the OP if you want your character to be added to this list)

Infirmary Description:

Spoiler

Show

The outside of the infirmary looks just like all the rest of the buildings. Nothing distinguishes it at all.

But inside, everything is white, with silver highlighting. Even though it doesn't seem possible, when looking from outside, sunlight filters inside. Giving the place a warm feeling with natural light.

A soft, soothing music filters through the whole building and voices can barely be heard saying words of healing and comfort, like: "You are going to be okay." "We'll take care of you." "You are dear to us." and so on.

Each room is walled off for a limited amount of privacy, because the pixies know that humans seem to need this. Strange. But it is limited. There are no doors.

Kinda looks like this:
______________________________________
|___/___/___/___/___/___/___/___/___/___|
|__/___/___/___/___/___/___/___/___/___/|
|__________________________________---|
|_\___\___\___\___\___\___\___\___\___\_|
|__\___\___\___\___\___\___\___\___\___\|


Except the angles are more severe, so that people on the other side of the hall can't see into anyone's room. Only someone intentionally looking in, can see you.

There is also a small living area in the back for the Druid family.

Miscellaneous Inhabitants:

The Spirits
Recently in the history of GLoG, a protective charm has been placed over the GLoG grounds. The shaman Pathfinder bid all the willing spirits that perished in and around GLoG to protect the grounds from those that would wish to do it and its inhabitants harm.

At the current time, Morty controls the spirits for the most part.

The Drones Mk 2
The drones are back at GLoG. Drones are NPCs who can be played by anyone, within the guidelines below:

• Their Primary Function is member safety.
• They no longer have teleport beams or alignment scanners.
• They do have stun beams, little arms, and the ability to record what's going on around them.
• They follow orders, unless those orders conflict with their Primary Function.
• There are only 4-5 in operation at any one time.
• They can be destroyed, but if so, they'll be restored from backup.
• A few have been supplied with medical programming, and thus can be godmodded for infirmary duties.
• They often have weird personality quirks and are prone to malfunctioning.
• Statement: They speak in DarkOrange FixedSys
• The only named drone (so far) is Caretaker, who is a private drone charged with protecting Brinika and controlled by Morty.

The Ghosts
Having been built on a Generic Ancient Burial Ground, Phoenix Lake Campground is haunted by various ghosts. They are generally harmless, and for the most part glad to have some company, though pranks and hijinks may occur. Ghosts can be NPC'd by anyone unless they are listed as PCs in the following list. They tend to speak in Gray, and mostly appear for comic purposes, but this is by no means a requirement.

Ghosts:
{table=head]Ghost|Player|Notes
Lady Anastasia Miranda Ophelia Stuart|Happyturtle|Former royal courtesan
Bloody Gentleman|Hyozo|
Heather|Happyturtle|Drowned teenage girl
Irene|Reinholdt|Nymph
Ironbeard|NPC|A dwarven gentleman rake

[Earl of Purple]

Jamie and Kevin and Friends

[Jamie and Kevin and Friends]

Brinika turns around sharply towards Abigail. She thinks she remembers her but it's been a while...

[Jamie and Kevin and Friends]

Oh. Okay then. Kevin frowns slightly as he finds himself wondering how else Mikani is different from Jamie. She seems to have the same personality...
Then Abigail shows up and he turns to look at her. I think they've actually met before.

Well, aside from a slightly shorter skirt and somewhat longer hair, you mean?

And upon hearing Abigail's voice, Mikani turns.
And squees.
"ABBY!" she cries out, lunging torwards the other girl!
Incoming glomp in 3!
2!
1!
GLOMP!

Jamie and Kevin and Friends

"Ooof!"

Abigail picks up Jamie into a hug, laughing softly. "Let's see... Brinika and Kevin, right? It's good to be back again."

Jamie & Kevin & Friends

"Hello! I'm Natalie, pleased to meet you." I think they've met before, but I'm only about fifty per cent certain. Natalie smiles and waves.

From the old thread.

Grounds

"Ooh, a council. Do they know you're planting a large, poisonous plant in the centre of their home?" Of course, Justin is probably unaware that with the sole exception of part of their berries, an entire yew tree contains a mildly poisonous substance.

It is possible to eat yew berries and suffer no ill effects, but it's generally not worth it.

[horngeek]

Jamie and Kevin and Friends

"Ah, right... I think we met, yes, but not the last time I was here- that was before I spent about four years away from my perspective."

[The Alexandrian]

[Dinner - Rock the Night Away]

Justin is such a sweet, compassionate person! Also, mysterious forgotten memory is mysteriously intriguing!

But no. Alyca isn't going to cry. Not tonight. Tonight is a night to celebrate the future, her future with a wonderful, dreamy boy that she's so lucky to have somehow gained the affections of. The past is dead and buried. It shall not be exhumed and mourned by Alyca this night.

"I'm fine. Really, I'm fine."

Alyca attempts to persuade Justin with a smile before releasing him.

"It's just that I never believed in my whole life that someone would do that for us of their own volition with no ulterior motive. A group of complete strangers putting their lives on the line to save us with nothing to gain from the situation except our freedom is the most beautiful and nicest act anyone has ever done. But enough about slavers and heroes, how is your dryad friend doing?"

[The Bushranger]

Jamie and Kevin and Friends

"Ooof!"

Abigail picks up Jamie into a hug, laughing softly. "Let's see... Brinika and Kevin, right? It's good to be back again."

"It's been a long long time! I've missed you," Mikani declares with a broad smile before letting go and smiling at her friends. "Natalie, Jamie, Brinika, you know Abigail, right?" she asks, grinning.

[Morty]

[Jamie and Kevin and Friends]

"I think we met once, but it was a while ago," Brinika says. She's somewhat less tiny than when Abigail last saw her.

[Morcleon]

[Infirmary +]

Kevin hesitates. Talking animals are one thing, but talking food is just too weird. Um... Well, he sorta speaks to nature and tells it what to do. He can heal any injury, set things on fire, and call lightning down from the sky.

[Infirmary +]

Pearl frowns. He sets things on fire, on purpose? Why'd he do that?

[Infirmary +]

Sayuri continues holding Pearl with a smile, looking down to answer her. "It's just something he can do, I think. Don't worry about people setting you on fire though. I'll protect you!"

Chuckling, she looks back up at Kevin. "Ah, so it's all nature magic? Cool... can it be taught to anyone?"

Zila nods. "Let's."

And she heads down the road, looking for a member so the trio can join...

Setsuna joins the pair, seeking a member of GLoG!

[GrandDM]

Main Cabin
"Don't go driving that thing around here."[/COLOR] It'd tear up the beautiful camp!

"Very well."

The man taps a small metal device fixed to his labcoat lapel, and a large holo-screen is projected in front of him (like Tony Stark's, but gold). His fingers move blindingly fast, dragging several icons backward and forward. He mutters to himself while doing so:

"Send the bike back... hmm, Line 3 has stalled... lack of material... Workers 423 through 476 activate... set co-ordinates... stasis complement below par, activate Weaver 1... done."

The hoverbike activates again, flying off back the way it came. Doctor Harald deactivates the holo-screen and mutters something else, too low to catch, into a ring on his finger. It's a small and understated ring, a thin band of something silvery set with a small golden gemstone.

He looks back up at the cat. "Thank you."

He takes one of the forms, pulls a pen from one of his many labcoat pockets, and writes:

Name
Dr Harald

Age
Total 272. Pysical 22.

Reason for Joining
I've heard you have the best medical facilities

Skills
I'm highly proficient in all forms of technology, but I specialise in programming and biotech.

Past Evildoing
None, unless you count animal testing. I am not here to be redeemed.

Other information
None relevant

((Forms in the first post..? No they aren't. I've looked. I've just guessed at what would be on there. Also, the bike would not tear up the camp; the most damage it would cause is a light coating of dust.))

[Hattish Thing]

Snatchin' Doctors!

*Crackle!*

A thing teleports into the camp for about half a second, before a figure in a cloak attempts to grab Doctor Harald, bike and all, and teleport again to the Frozen Hermitage as fast as possible. No speech, he knew they had good protectors here.

*Crackle!*

[GrandDM]

Snatchin' Doctors!

A thing teleports into the camp for about half a second, before a figure in a cloak attempts to grab Doctor Harald, bike and all, and teleport again to the Frozen Hermitage as fast as possible. No speech, he knew they had good protectors here.

*Crackle!*

The bike is gone, Harald sent it back. Being a scientist, Harald is unable to resist, and is abducted to the Frozen Hemitage.

His form and pen fall to the ground.

To Outside!

[OrchestraHc]

[Main Cabin]

"That makes sense. I had hoped to find a partner somewhere. Someone else to fly with. Just no luck so far." She really should head back into the city sometime to try looking again. It just feels safe here at the campsite.

Main Lodge

"This One is sure Miss' luck will turn around."

[Main Lodge]

"I think so too," Timmy tries to say encouragingly. "I'm sure there are more people with wings in the city, umm... Maybe even dragon wings or... something like that."

From the old thread.

Grounds

"Ooh, a council. Do they know you're planting a large, poisonous plant in the centre of their home?" Of course, Justin is probably unaware that with the sole exception of part of their berries, an entire yew tree contains a mildly poisonous substance.

It is possible to eat yew berries and suffer no ill effects, but it's generally not worth it.

[Grounds]

"Crap, yews are poisonous? Oh damn, that's right, I heard yew berries have poison seeds." This apparently completely slipped his mind. "They knew I was planting a tree, but I didn't say anything about it being poison. Okay, Wooden frame, chicken wire fencing, and at least four signs, and maybe a little gate for you should solve it." It's minimum coverage, but the kids in GLoG are fairly smart. "Also be sure to warn any kids who get too close." This surprise has thrown him off, so he's not a great at dealing with things when he's unsure of himself.

[Dinner - Rock the Night Away]

Justin is such a sweet, compassionate person! Also, mysterious forgotten memory is mysteriously intriguing!

But no. Alyca isn't going to cry. Not tonight. Tonight is a night to celebrate the future, her future with a wonderful, dreamy boy that she's so lucky to have somehow gained the affections of. The past is dead and buried. It shall not be exhumed and mourned by Alyca this night.

But enough about slavers and heroes, how is your dryad friend doing?"

[Dinner - Fine, how about yew?]

"Dryad? I keep forgetting that's what tree people are called. Baccata is doing fine. We just moved her in along with the supplies for the "Archery" range." He thinks calling it an archery range may make it go over better when he actually shows it off. "She's different than I thought she was. Still sweet like I thought, but she's got a dark side." Sound familiar, Alyca? "She's got a weird sense of life and death, that I guess just sort of come with either being part plant or living alone for so long. I wasn't terribly different when I first left home." A kleptomaniacal semi-sociopath with possession, personal space, and anger issues is not the same as a girl with a blase attitude on self-defense. It's not not even close.

Abigail smiled. "Missed you too."

She laughed softly. "Hey, seems like you guys have all grown. Not much heavier, though.

...I might not be the best judge of that, given I can bench-press a car."

[Reinholdt]

There used to be forms...

Main Cabin Roof

Well.
That was a thing.
Maybe it was all just some hallucination of Reinholdt's fragmented mind. Wouldn't be the first time.
Heck if he could do anything about it now anyways if it wasn't.

Rein goes back to sleep.

[Dinner - Darth Alyca]

Justin doesn't know the power of the dark side! He will join them or die! They have unlimited power! They have a Death Star! They have a cookies! What else could any rational insane person desire?

"A weird sense of life and death? How so?"

Alyca casually asks, consuming more soup shortly thereafter. She doesn't understand what Justin is implying with those seemingly purposefully ambiguous words.

You never know! Justin could have just transplanted a psycho killer into the center of a camp frequented by small children!

"And while we're on this topic, precisely how sweet is this Baccata to you? I mean, for all I know, she could very well be your girl on the side!"

Alyca playfully teases.

Alyca playfully teases.

[Dinner - Power and Cookies, you say?]

"I don't think it's my business to talk about, I wouldn't want her divulging secrets about me to her hypothetical boyfriend." And whether she's telling the truth or not, Justin has means of keeping tabs on her. They involve slightly creepy Enclave robot technology, but it only has to sate Justin's suspicions. "And she's a nice girl, but I'll have you know I'm no two-timer. She also knows about you, y'know. Said you're lucky to have me. I am a keeper." For his credit, he seems aware she's teasing and responds with appropriate mock offense.

He also skimmed over the fact that she kissed him, but since she initiated it and he declined, it's probably best to leave that bit where it is. Hopefully the two girls will never ever speak.

[The Alexandrian]

[Dinner - Justin Is Watching You!]

No juicy gossip? Aww! That's no fun! Well, this Baccata girl sounds like a very interesting person. Alyca will have to stop by and meet her one of these days! No reason not to when she lives just a short walk from her doorstep.

"A keeper and a keeper of secrets."

And anything shiny that he can get his hands on, it seems.

"But I don't know about that two-timer line of your's. You had how many of them rigged up to keep track of how long that chicken of your's had been in the oven?"

Oh gods, not the puns! Anything but the puns!

"And don't think I didn't notice your apron when I walked in here either. Was that an open invitation or was that meant for my eyes only."

Like her secret orders are!

Jamie and Kevin and Friends

Abigail smiled. "Missed you too."

She laughed softly. "Hey, seems like you guys have all grown. Not much heavier, though.

...I might not be the best judge of that, given I can bench-press a car."

"Maaaaaybe not," Mikani agrees with a grin. "Hey, how long are you going to be back for?" she asks hopefully.

[Earl of Purple]

Grounds

"OK. I'll tell my tree to be careful with its leaves as well." Baccata's yew is more mobile than it should be, though it's not capable of moving on its own.

Baccata smiles gently, slightly apologetic that she didn't mention it sooner.

[horngeek]

Jamie and Kevin and Friends

Abigail grinned. "Hopefully for good. I'm not planning to leave… that said, I should probably ask your mum if there's anything I can do around here to help."

[Earl of Purple]

Jamie & Kevin & Friends

"It'll be good to see more of you, Abigail." Though Natalie herself technically lives off-world, she spends a lot of her free time at GLoG.

Also, she's twelve years old, not eleven.

[The Bushranger]

Jamie and Kevin and Friends

"Awesome!" Mikani grins happily. "We all need to get together more often," she declares, looking at Abigail, Natalie, Brinika, and Kevin.


I know Oddball would like it if Chiquita returned, too.

[Reinholdt]

The fact that Tobias said it should be proof enough it's not completely true.

An hour or so later, a crowd of NPC doctors file out of the building and leave the camp. One of them is in tears. Toby saunters out after them, muttering to himself. Can't handle a little pressure at all. Would make an awful battlefield medic.

Pounce!
A small blue kitty is jumping down from the roof onto Tobias' hat. No doubt going for the kill. Those hats are dangerous after all.

[FireFox]

[Jamie and Kevin and Friends]

Kevin waves to Abigail, then shyly steps back. He's beginning to realize he is dangerously outnumbered. Why are there so many girls here!?


[Infirmary +]

I don't think it can be taught to people who are bad at learning, Miss. The boy replies seriously.


[Not the Hat!]

Toby is caught off guard. Reinholdt knocks his fedora right off his head. Hey!

[Reinholdt]

[Yes the Hat]

Reinholdt bats and jumps at it some more while it's on the ground. "Mwahaha! The fearsome hunter has slain yet another headwear! RAWR!"

[horngeek]

Jamie and Kevin and Friends

Abigail laughed. "I suppose we should... although I think we might be crowding Kevin a bit."

[FireFox]

[The Cat on the Hat]

Luckily, the psychomorphic artifact is very durable. It just looks slightly more battered now. How marvelous for you. Toby chuckles.

[Reinholdt]

That's That

"So, you were looking for me earlier?" Reinholdt asks, knocking the hat away one last time.

[FireFox]

Brimming with Excitement

Ah... I took care of it, I think. I'd rather not bother you with something so petty. The Druid tries to reach for his hat, to dust it off and put it back on.

[Reinholdt]

Over the Top

"Oh? You sure?" Reinholdt sits and licks his paw clean. That hat was dirty. Wonder why it's kept in such terrible condition.
*nod nod*

[FireFox]

Haberdashing

Eh... He shrugs. I was trying to do you a favor, but I know you can handle it if it becomes a real issue. He kneels down and tries to scritch the cat's ears. What have you been up to?
