Wait...What? *reads over profile*

...Oh shit!

There we go, all done. Darren's mother has now conveniently died due to lung problems, most likely inhaling too much dust after the colony drop.

True, but it hasn't been repaired yet. So we've got a Hizack, it just doesn't really have a cockpit (and there's blood and stuff crusted on what's left).

...and then there's Ed's Marasai.

EDIT: For anybody thinking about joining the RPG, let me just say that Saosin's profile is the kind of thing I like to see. I don't have to correct anything!

Which brings me to my little problem. The 4th is running out of room in a manner of speaking. We've still got a Salamis full of NPCs (the Thunderchild), but if Saosin is fine being assigned there he'll have no PCs around. Capt. Coates is under my control and will be available for interaction, of course, but that's it unless someone else signs up.

Well, the Herakles has a back-up pilot, so why can't that ship with the Hizack? If a Gelgoog can be repaired with Rick Dias parts and various suits can be retrofitted with panaromic cockpits, why can't a Hizack have a Nemo cockpit?

That Hizack..

...might be what Richard'd need after what his Nemo went through. IE Plowing face first into Luna at full tilt speed..<_<

His Nemo's cockpit should be intact for the most part, aside from some blown out screens and broken monitor mounts.. The rest of the body's frame and everything else would probably be a write off though.

EDIT: They could stick Saosin's char on the Gela as an interim pilot while Richard recovers..just a thought. This would leave Norman in command in the mean time.

EDIT II: Why not make a franken Zack out of what spares we have, the Hizack, and the Marasai's Jenny?

I'm fine with a Nemo, really. There's no reason to conjure a HiZack up IC just for my character.

Also, I guess I'm the interim pilot on the Gela huh? If & when that runs out, I'm fine with Darren being the only PC on the Thunderchild, so long as he's not taking orders from a nameless NPC pilot.

We captured a Hizack after killing its pilot during the last battle, so that isn't a problem. You'll have a MS to use once Sager gets some free time with it and the parts from Barrique's Nemo.

okay that sounds alright to me. But one more thing, any advice on how I should intro in? The 4th isn't in port right now, so could I have Darren spawn from a NPC engineer and report to the bridge, as if Capatin Gyuden has opted to select him as a back-up pilot?

As far as the game is concerned, Darren has "been there" the whole time, possibly as an engineer all the way back to the beginning of the series as one of the Gela's original crew. For the story's sake, "Darren the NPC" is suddenly important enough to introduce as a regular character, so you can just begin playing him however you want.

Most ships have a list of emergency pilots, so he was probably already on the list (at the top, it seems; probably due to his training). Feel free to begin playing from anywhere on the ship; technically your character is still an engineering officer, but by now the crew knows Lt. Barrique has been incapacitated, so you can safely assume you're up for combat duty on the emergency roster.

I hate to say this, but I probably won't be able to post at all next week. I might be able to get internet access at least briefly during the week, but I'm going to be in rural West Virginia, so I'm not exactly getting my hopes up.

In case something comes up, I leave Captain Dombrowski and Jim in Fritz's control and Caroline in Cardi's control.
Don't call it a comeback...

<<Content Edited for Stupidity>>

No, you don't need to post every little action or every day, especially not during down times, like between battles. But during battles, you have up to 48 hours to respond to an attack before the attack may choose to call the hit (make it connect and do what every damage he/she/it feels like with in limits).

It is generally a good idea to check the forums at least once a day, though, to help the story move on.

Actually, I have an idea, I still new but somehow I feel that maybe that Saosin character maybe can be tranfer to Hamburg, the Hizack is in the hamburg and also the Hamburg are full of NPC, would be good if got a PC there. Just my idea.

Actually, there is a problem with that... Capt. Loweno hates the Hizack and is trying to get rid of it. For all intents and purposes Lt. Barrique is off the roster and his Nemo is trashed. The current idea is to transfer the Hizack to the Gela and uses Barrique's Nemo to repair it, so Darren can have a suit.
