Why do you want to join GLoG?
Any other important information:

Also, before you join, read the Rules of the Spork. If you are not a member, then when your character arrives, you will be outside the front door and must roleplay getting entry, but bear in mind that whenever your character enters GLoG, alignment scanners will try to detect his/her current intention's alignment (so even the most evil of people might come off as good, if they think they are. If you wish to post, IC, on GLoG's bulletin board, it is located here, and there is a Full Members list here. If your name's not there, feel free to go on and add your character's name, and information.

Ground Floor

Spoiler

1. Front Entrance - Where people go in.
2. Great Room - The main lounge.
3. Infirmary Wing - Only slightly more equipped than the average hospital. Expect to be here. A lot.
4. Member Quarters - Where people sleep. Rooms can be fully customized, and several times bigger on the inside than they really should be, due to dimensional mojo.
5. Gazebo - Step cautiously, and you may just survive.
6. Pool Area - Indoor Pool and Hot-tubs.
7. The Armory - If you can kill someone with it, it's there.
8. The Conservatory - Rare plant specimens abound!
9. Covered Walkways - Are Covered.

Basement 1

Spoiler

Spoiler

1. Water Works - A veritable mass of pipes.
2. The Vaults - Shiny...
3. The Labs - Beware the Mutant-Half-Were-Pirate-Zombie-Dog.
4. Detention Blocks - Totally humane, we swear!
5. Sparring Pits
6. Training Mats
7. Shooting Range
8. Obstacle Course Area - Over eleventy billion possible combinations!

Basement 2

Spoiler

Spoiler

• Secret Drone Factory - Completely Inaccessible. Who built it? SECRET! Who designed the drones? SECRET! How do the drones even get from the factory to the base if it's 'completely inaccessible' anyway? I SAID IT'S SECRET GODDAMIT!
• Particle Accelerator - Why do we even have one of these?

Roof

Spoiler

Spoiler

• Helipads - For helicopters and other VTOL type aircraft to land. Duh.
• Garage - Is a lot bigger on the inside, due to dimensional mojo. [Insert witty comment or pun here]
• Vehicle Teleporter - Used to get ground vehicles from the roof to the ground. May or may not be a lift-ramp-portal-mass-driver-cannon thing.

Great Room

Members Only Areas:

Spoiler

Some areas of the base are DNA locked and alignment locked so that only members with no evil intent can enter unescorted. These include the Security Room, the Armoury, the Detention Wing, and the Artifact Vault.

Artifact Vault - Set next to the Armory, this is where GLoG's major artifacts are stored. The door is DNA locked to members only.

Spoiler

The Brightheart
The Brightheart is a plain orb, set upon a stone plinth labeled 'The Brightheart'. Also on the plinth is a note that says:
'Do Not Remove. Ever. No, not even then. (But maybe then.)'
The Brightheart itself glows with inner light, and throws up a positive energy blanket of moderate strength (heals most surface wounds, and makes undead sick) a few meters in radius. Touching the Brightheart results in having a large amount of positive energy run through you (heals all wounds, and drives undead to near death). Inside the plinth itself is a gate to the Negative Energy realm, which draws off the excess positive energy from the Brightheart. Should the Brightheart be removed, and taken away from the base without the necessary preparations being made, two Very Bad Things^TM will happen.
A) The Brightheart's positive energy will not be siphoned off, and so it will be returned to full strength, throwing up a powerful positive energy blanket about a kilometer in radius, and killing anyone who touches it, living or no, through sheer positive energy overdose.
B) The gate to the Negative Energy realm will become unstable and tear, creating a giant Negative Energy rift in the middle of GLoG.

Banners:

GLoG's defences, and Security cameras, and the Drones in GLoG. Other information may well be found on our wiki.
The GLoG portals:

Spoiler

The portal between GLoG and HALO is still open, providing instantaneous transportation between the two organisations.
But anyone passing through it arrives outside the front door. If they've already been cleared (previously interacted with GLoG without hostilities), they can walk straight in without having to roleplay out knocking on the door and so on.
There is also a smaller portal operating between GLoG and Farthing Cottage

First time visitors, or people who have previously caused trouble have to wait for someone to undeadtime to decide whether they can enter the building (GLoG), or not, unfortunately. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Susan's in the greatroom, standing up fairly uncertainly, leaning hard on a table.

But when protection starts to hurt more than it helps, it's time, for better or for worse, to let go.~

~I..... I never meant to harm anyone...... I just wanted to keep her safe. Away from men and women who would do her harm.~

Silence.

~I will try to help you.~

+++++++++++++++++++

Susan might feel a pair of hand gently start to touch her hips. You are doing fine, sweety. A feminine voice says kindly.

[billtodamax]

"****!" Says Susan as she spins around. Or rather, she tries. Instead, she starts to spin, the collapses. "Argh... who are you?" She asks.

[Lex-Kat]

Vidalia frowns down at Susan. My name is Vidalia. Let me help you up. She holds out her hand and will help Susan up, if allowed to.

[billtodamax]

She can, but she's going to have to be supporting most of Susan's weight.Susan will let herself be helped up until she can lean on the table again.
"Sorry I freaked out, and thanks." She says. "I'm Susan." She says, smiling.

[Lex-Kat]

Vidalia is stronger than she looks. But super-strong, but she's fit.

She helps Susan back into position. I'm sorry. I have a tendancy to do that sometimes.


After getting into position. So what is it you are trying to do, walk?

[billtodamax]

"Well, standing would be nice first." She says, with a mirthless smile. "It's not strength that's the problem, it's the damn balancing." She says.

[Lex-Kat]

Vidalia smiles back at Susan.

She'll help Susan as much as possible, including placing her back in her chair when she's tired and needs a break.

But her player has to DEADTIME. Night.

[billtodamax]

Night Lex.

Susan will, leaning heavily upon Vidalia, make a couple of steps, before collapsing back into her wheel chair.

Silence.

~I will try to help you.~

~I know. And you did a good job of it,~ Quinn 'says', softly and in an encouraging 'tone'. ~Thank you.~

Quinn now goes to stand, hoping she's still invisible, and considers her next move.

Alexis wakes up on the couch again, stretching slowly.

[The Bushranger]

Alex is sitting next to her, arm around her shoulders.

((Changing computers, brb))

[SeptAngel]

((M'kay))

Hey you. She smiles softly to him.

[The Bushranger]

No, hey you. Alex smiles back. Feeling better?

[SeptAngel]

Much more rested. She leans over and kisses him.

[The Bushranger]

He kisses back happily. "That's good to hear. Hungry?"

[SeptAngel]

Starving. She laughs, realizing she hasn't eaten in a few days.

[The Bushranger]

Of course, nobody ever seems to go to the bathroom either.

Well then, I suppose I should provide for the needs of my fair lady, then? Alex winks, and goes to stand to head for the kitchen.

[SeptAngel]

True

Sounds great. She gets up, slipping her hand into his.

[The Bushranger]

Alex squeezes it happily, then leans over to give her cheek a kiss before leading her to the kitchen.

[SeptAngel]

She hops up on the counter while he fixes something. What's my man making me?

[The Bushranger]

Grilled chicken in egg noodles with spinach alfredo sauce, Alex declares with confidence as he sets about making, well, exactly that. What would my girl like to drink?

[SeptAngel]

I'll get the drinks. What would you prefer? She asks sweetly.

[The Bushranger]

Hm. Surprise me with something as sweet as you are, dear. Alex smiles and turns his attention to cooking.

[SeptAngel]

She fixes up some lemonade that's nice and sweet. Without realizing it, she starts humming softly.

[The Bushranger]

Alex looks over at hearing her humming, stirring the noodles as he watches and listens.

[SeptAngel]

It's a slower romantic sounding song. She seems to move with it while putting out the plates and silverware.

[The Bushranger]

A smile grows on Alex's face as he watches, only distracted by the need to occasionally work on the food, and he starts humming along as best he can as he dishes up the food.

[SeptAngel]

Hearing him humming, she catches herself. Oops... She blushes a little, how cute.
