[23:16] <@BradGM> ((hehe)) [23:16] * Grendel records the information and examines all the data that he can, as well as examining the workings of the shields. [23:17] <Lyra_> "I figured he'd just use some kind of archeotech mechadendrite." [23:17] <@BradGM> **Grendel; it's your standard navy pattern double void station shield.** [23:18] * Grendel praises the custodianship of the Tech-Magos again before returning to the unfortunate world of the non-enlightened. [23:19] <@BradGM> **As you exit the shield shrine, you see a couple of ignorant voiders looking at another who's tapping at a flickering light.** [23:20] <@BradGM> ((possibly with thier finger in thier noses and drooling)) [23:20] * Grendel studies them closely. [23:21] <@BradGM> **The one taps the lgiht for a few moments until it stops flickering, and they resume their work.** [23:23] * Grendel makes a note of them and continues on. [23:23] <@BradGM> **you saw nor heard any litany or ritual of the light, nor did he used machine oil on it** [23:23] * Grendel moves towards the light and performs the litany of light! [23:24] <@BradGM> **roll tech-use!** [23:26] <Grendel> !dhroll 88 [23:26] <DiceServitor> Grendel: 26 Success by 6 degrees! [23:26] <@BradGM> **the light shines brightly, at least 60 watts more than what it used to! The voider eveng ot to shield thier eyes with thier hands as they stare impressed at the new sun that appeared overhead** [23:27] <Grendel> "Proper care and litanies should be supplied at all times when using the ritual of tapping." [23:28] <Mira_Atella> (( There needs to be a CBS "The More You Know..." star on that )) [23:28] <@BradGM> Voider "Thank you mister machineman..boss...sir..? That thing 's been like ever since I started working here 12 years ago." [23:29] <@BradGM> ((Or a shooting cog instead of a star)) [23:29] <Mira_Atella> (( Works for me )) [23:30] <@BradGM> !dhroll 37 [23:30] <DiceServitor> BradGM: 20 Success by 1 degree! [23:30] <@BradGM> ((going back to the room Grendel?)) [23:30] <Grendel> "Proper maintence, proper care and proper supplication to the Omnissiah and the glories of its Machine Spirits, even those of the light. Praise the Omnissiah." [23:31] <Grendel> ((Once I've instructed the yokels!)) [23:31] <Grendel> ((But yes :) )) [23:32] <@BradGM> !dhroll 28 [23:32] <DiceServitor> BradGM: 78 Failure by 5 degrees!

[23:32] <@BradGM> **Two seems totally daft by your teaching, but one, the one who knew how to tap the light, seems to be now filled with knowlege than even transpire his own presence in the Galaxy.** [23:34] <Grendel> ((One day, Grendel will have this place turned into a proper bastion of the Omnissiah's Glory)) [23:34] * Grendel returns to the flophouse. [23:34] <@BradGM> ((aaan ok if we stop it there?)) [23:34] <Mira_Atella> (( Sad. Bacon ranch fries were brought to me by my cousin. They really just put fries in a box and put some ranch and crumbled bacon on them. There needs to be cheese or something, nothing is sticking to the fries well )) [23:34] <Mira_Atella> (( k )) [23:35] <@BradGM> ***Grendel you return to the flophouse, where Lyra and Mira managed to create a trip alarm system which send out a audio promt when someone activates it.** [23:35] <Mira_Atella> (( And the amount of ranch is pretty abysmal )) [23:36] <@BradGM> ((wow, how can soemone fail that much when bacon is involved?))
