[20:05] <@BradGM> +++The elevator ride over, the group exited the shaft only to end up in a large corridor concealing a mirror trick. Trekking down the hall, they gave thier firearms to a servitor, before entering a windowed room, and saw they were above a hive world. There a man, Lord Jex, began discussing things with more or less clear wording. As Grendel gets shot in the leg by a dart, Grim saw images of a past life, as well at the highly sofisticated holographic system, making Lord Jex seems life-like. It appears your lives are now his to command, either willingly, by others, or by his will, as he showed that he is no mere Lord, but Inquisitor.+++

[20:07] <@BradGM> ((as in, filling you in))
[20:07] <+Alaric> ((what recap? Haven't seen one yet...))
[20:08] <@BradGM> ((the small block of text?))
[20:08] <+Alaric> ((that's a recap?))
[20:08] <@BradGM> ((You want what, paragraphs? it's not like alot of action happened, mostly blablabla))
[20:08] <+Alaric> ((what actually happened? where are we? what's going on? last I recall, we found an elevator in the freezer))
[20:09] <+Mira_Atella> (( went up the elevator, a creepy old guy got cryptic with us about our lives not being our own, that's about it ))
[20:09] <+Alaric> ((ty))
[20:09] <+Alaric> ((so...where are we now?))
[20:10] <@BradGM> ((Near a high and long windowed room overseeing a hive world with many Imperial Navy ship and transport are in orbit over the planet))
[20:11] <@BradGM> ((They are far enough that it looks like a moon, but it's a planet))
[20:12] <+Alaric> ((so...we still dressed in crappy worker's clothes? on the run, etc))
[20:13] <@BradGM> ((yes))
[20:14] <+Alaric> ((ok...))
[20:14] * +Alaric looks out the window a long moment, old memories filtering up for a bit, before he turns to survey the rest of the room.
[20:16] * +Grendel goes back to studying the ships outside. "So what now?"
[20:17] * +Mira_Atella has kept her eyes on the old man, his last words still ringing in her ears.
[20:17] <@BradGM> Inquisitor Jex s turning his back at you. He's wearing a finely made leather-like long coat with the collar folded high. He's got a battered and thin wooden cane with a dull brass tip, and the pommel is marked over his glvoed hand. He is bald with a chopped short band of grayhish red hair and might be around 40 or 50 eyars of age.
[20:18] * +Alaric looks to the older gentlement pantiently.

[20:20] * TheOneNOnly (~TappedOut@74.80.38.238) has joined #Shadowrun
[20:21] * +Alaric nods to the elder. "Of course. I was trained to bring the Law to the lawless. If I can perform those duties in a greater field of endevor, I would be remiss to not do so."
[20:23] <@BradGM> "And what of you, Mira."
[20:24] <+Mira_Atella> "I'm not sure. I've had this cryptic message thing going on with the techie all day.. It's not helping to just hear more of the same."
[20:27] * +Grendel snorts in binary.
[20:28] <@BradGM> "Your father was not assasinated because he spoiled himself with the tithe ressources, but murdered because he was investigated outside influences within the own nobles houses of Hagia."
[20:29] * TheOneNOnly (~TappedOut@74.80.38.238) Quit (Ping timeout)
[20:29] * +Mira_Atella sighs and finally looks away from him. "I don't believe you, but I'll go along with this if just to prove to myself you're wrong."
[20:32] <@BradGM> "If it's how you see it, so be it. Captain Rother will escort you out."

[20:36] <@BradGM> Mira you see a servoskull dropping down on Alaric
[20:36] * TheOneNOnly (~TappedOut@74.80.38.238) has joined #Shadowrun
[20:37] <+Mira_Atella> "Alaric, look out above you!"
[20:38] * +Alaric immediately drops and rolls to the right.
[20:38] * +Grendel purses his lips, studying the servoskull.
[20:39] <@BradGM> There's a servoskull dropping down silently. It it equipped with a needle weapon and augery system
[20:40] <+Mira_Atella> "What is that thing trying to do to him?!"
[20:41] * +Alaric comes to his feet and pivots, keeping both the skull and the inquisitor in sight. "What is the meaning of this?"
[20:42] <@BradGM> Jex "It is a servoskull. Calling him makes it come forth. Captain Rother, Guide those 4 to the Teleportarium."
[20:42] * TheOneNOnly (~TappedOut@74.80.38.238) Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[20:42] * +Grendel watches curiously.
[20:43] * +Alaric frowns. "And our names? I will not have my name besmirched and be accused of such falsehood any longer than necessary. Bad enough we were forced to kill two of those Enforcers, may the Emporer guide them to their rest, over this."
[20:44] <@BradGM> The Servoskull stops lowering at head height, and begins flying back across room.
[20:44] * +Grendel turns from the window, following the servoskull.
[20:45] <@BradGM> Jex "Your names? As far as your superiors and everyone you know are concerned, you have transfered to a Penal Colony in the Eastern Frindge."
[20:45] * +Lazerus_Grim nods to the Inquisitor and strolls after Grendel
[20:45] <+Alaric> "I believe my 'record' stated that I broke the Law in a most heinous way."
[20:46] <@BradGM> Jex "Serving as a Guard-Colonist, mind you."
[20:46] * +Alaric looks to the tech-priest a moment, since that is where he learned it.
[20:46] * +Mira_Atella cautiously follows the skull, wanting to be anywhere but the room with the old man.
[20:51] * +Grendel continues to follow the skull, taking a few moments every few steps to study the mechanics of it.
[20:52] <@BradGM> Jex "Your record is flawless Arbitrator."
[20:53] * +Alaric nods in acceptance and follows the others out.
[20:54] <@BradGM> Captain Rother flies out into hall made of very well polished black stone. He goes about halfway down and stops adn face the wall.
[20:55] <@BradGM> The Servoskull emints some sort of scrambled code and a section of the wall slides up silenty and rapidly.
[20:56] * +Grendel tilts his head, listening to the code, before peering through the opening.
[20:57] * +Alaric looks through as the sections rises.
[20:58] <@BradGM> It flies inside the room where a faint, constant dim flashing light emits from.
[20:58] * +Alaric shrugs and follows.
[20:59] <@BradGM> Grendel, the code is scrambled, you have no way of decrypting it now; you can save ti if you canr ecord it somehow
[21:00] * +Grendel shrugs slightly and moves on, sure he'll come across something like this again, stepping through the doorway.
[21:01] * +Lazerus_Grim looks excited (perhaps hoping that they would be getting their guns back) but then realizes that it's another passageway and sighs, following Grendel
[21:01] * +Mira_Atella waits for the others to go through before following herself.
[21:04] <@BradGM> You are in a boxed 5x5x5 room made of metal that glows faintly; but you see no wires, tubes, cables, or any machine of any sort.

[21:14] <@BradGM> You feel some great force passing through you and see the others being disintegraded in front of you; You realized that you're all being diseintegrated (except Alaric). Mira and Grim falls unconcious, feeling thier ends arrived. Grendel falls sobbering and tearing at his own flesh. And then a loud flash of lgiht appears and you'Re back in the same place.
[21:15] * +Alaric grits his teeth and bears it, focusing on the LAW!
[21:16] <@BradGM> ((So Mira's down for 4 rounds, 4 insanity point, Grendel down for 5 roudns, 4 insanity, Grim down for 1 roun, 3 insanity.))
[21:16] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((not a 'mundane horror'?))
[21:17] * +Grendel growls, trying to pull the tainted flesh from his body, scratching and tearing at his skin with is fingernail, letting out horrific screeches through his rebreather.
[21:17] <@BradGM> ((is being desintegrated is?))
[21:19] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((yeah, i didnt think so, just thought id check
[21:19] <@BradGM> Mira and Grim, you begin regaining consciousness
[21:20] * +Alaric looks around, breathing harshly. He kneels down to chck the others.
[21:20] * +Mira_Atella groans slightly, turning over on her back, but keeping her eyes shut.
[21:20] * +Grendel continues to twist on the floor, hissing and buzzing coming through the rebreather as he tries to scrap the weak flesh away.

[21:22] <@BradGM> ((roll wise (if any) -10 to Mira/Grim, -20 to Grendel))
[21:23] <+Grendel> ((wise?))
[21:23] <@BradGM> Captain Rother Issues another code and the door opens up. You can ehar the familiar Imperial hissing sounds that machines always have. And the odour.
[21:23] <+Grendel> ((oh..we're at negatives for a while))
[21:23] <+Mira_Atella> (( yeah no clue heh ))
[21:24] <@BradGM> ((yeah for rolls, but it's only for the encounter, so might not have that here.))
[21:25] <@BradGM> It flies outside.
[21:25] <+Mira_Atella> (( still not sure what you meant for us to roll ))
[21:25] * +Grendel staggers outside, following the machine, still trying to get the fleshy bits to work properly.
[21:25] <+Grendel> ((nothing, he meant that all of our future rolls are at negatives))
[21:26] <+Mira_Atella> (( ah, I see ))
[21:26] * +Mira_Atella gets to one knee and balances herself before pushing the rest of the way to her feet.
[21:27] * +Mira_Atella staggers forward, trying her best to stay on her feet.
[21:28] <@BradGM> You are amist a large and elaborate (and ancient-looking) machines with numerous cables, tubes dangles everywhere, half a dozen Tech-Priest of superior skill are communing with the machine spirit. Steams ejects here and there.
[21:29] * +Lazerus_Grim feels really out of place
[21:29] * +Grendel really wants to look around and study the machines, but would like the world to stop spinning as well
[21:30] * +Mira_Atella jumps a bit at the different sounds and sights, attempting to bring her breathing under control.
[21:30] <@BradGM> Captain Rother navigates across the machinery. Servitors are busy maintaing the ancient relic of the past.
[21:32] * +Grendel follows along, taking in the sights as he slowly recovers from the transport, feeling like the machine didn't quite put everything back the same.
[21:37] <@BradGM> You arrive to a small passage. Inqusitor Jex is standing there, waiting.
[21:37] <@BradGM> Jex "Wonderous device is it not?"
[21:38] <+Grendel> "The lack of controls are..unusual."
[21:38] <@BradGM> Jex "It requires a little habit, you may have the chance to exprience it again."
[21:38] * +Mira_Atella looks up without a word, unsure she'd be able to keep her small amount of food and beer down if she opened her mouth.
[21:39] <@BradGM> Jex "Now, some rest and food might be of use. Tomorrow, you begin your formal training."
[21:40] <+Grendel> "Something appropriate to wear?"
[21:41] <@BradGM> Jex "of course."
[21:42] <@BradGM> You exits the room, going inot a large corridor and sits into a chart-servitor.
[21:43] * +Grendel looks around, taking in everything, studying the new servitor.
[21:44] * +Mira_Atella follows for the time, not having the energy or mental feeling to do anything else.
[21:44] <+Grendel> "Simply amazing."
[21:45] <@BradGM> The chart-servitor leaves down the high and large corridor. Many large painting are on the walls, of great men and woman fighitng the many ennemies of Man; but despite what you know, you do not recognized any of the battles or person; short of the Emperor and Saint Drusus
[21:48] * +Grendel makes the sign of the Omnissiah to the picture with the Emperor, otherwise he mostly ignores the pictures, unless they look to have interesting technology depicted in them.
[21:48] <@BradGM> Power weaposn/armour and plasma and such; not your average lasgun
[21:49] * +Grendel studies the pictures, trying to make note of the patterns of the weapons before moving along.
[21:50] <@BradGM> The chart-servitor stops at a door and Lord Jex gets down. "You will found your things in here. Eat and rest, tomorrow, someone will come to begin your training; heed his lessons well.
[21:51] * +Mira_Atella not wanting for another word she opens the door and steps inside, looking for somewhere to sit down.
[21:52] <@BradGM> Jex "I shall also take your keycards."
[21:52] * +Grendel nods to the Inquisitor, wondering just what miracles of technology he can be taught from the Tech-Priests that he has seen.
[21:53] <@BradGM> Jex "You may keep your knives, for now. Consider it a sign of my trust."
[21:53] * +Grendel passes over the keycard.
[21:53] * +Mira_Atella grabs the card from her pocket and hands it to Grendel to pass on.
[21:53] * +Lazerus_Grim holds up the two key cards. "Both of them?"
[21:53] * +Grendel passes over the second keycard as well.
[21:56] * +Grendel steps inside the doors, curiously looking around. "This is an odd day."
[21:57] <@BradGM> You are in a spacious 2 story house with 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen, living room and study. Your things, but not your weapons, are on the kitchen table.
[21:57] * +Mira_Atella thinks she can speak now without decorating their new room in bread and fish, "You think, Techie?"
[21:58] * +Mira_Atella looks to see what things made it to the table for them.
[21:58] * +Grendel grabs his equipment, and without a word disappears into one of the rooms, the door closing behind him.
[21:59] <+Mira_Atella> (( I don't think anything was taken from her, just seeing if there's anything new that they didn't have before ))
[22:01] <@BradGM> ((Your basic gear, minus weapons))
[22:01] <@BradGM> ((and minus amrour))
[22:02] <+Mira_Atella> (( okay, so the workers jackets are gone? ))
[22:03] <@BradGM> ((youR,e wearing them, no?))
[22:03] <+Mira_Atella> (( I remember you had said they were armored.. well hey, who knows what happened when they were knocked out heh ))
[22:04] <@BradGM> ((I meant your basic core book gear is ther eminus armour and wepaons; you ahve everything else))
[22:04] * +Lazerus_Grim hands back both cards and heads inside. "So two bedrooms. Who's my roommate?"
[22:04] * +Grendel returns, much more properly wrapped in his Mechanicus robes, a metal staff with the markings of the Omnissiah firmly seated in his hand.
[22:04] <@BradGM> ((yeah, who wants to sleep in the same room as a psyker?))
[22:05] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((dont everyone raise their hands at once))
[22:05] * +Mira_Atella looks at Grim, "Don't even think about it. Alaric is the only one I semi-trust here and that I wouldn't stab in his sleep."
[22:05] <@BradGM> The food conserver's packed with good food: steaks and vegetables, and condiments.
[22:05] * +Mira_Atella stands up again, feeling much better and heads to the other bedroom to have a look inside at the setup.
[22:07] <@BradGM> It's basic, but doubled; double shower, double sinks, double pantry.
[22:07] * +Lazerus_Grim looks hurt but recognizes the standard anti-psykerism that plagues the Imperium and can't blame her. He quietly grabs his things and walks into the study, opening his book of Imperial Saints and sitting down to read
[22:07] <@BradGM> ((that book'S your charm?))
[22:07] * +Grendel has already dropped the remains of his clothes and gear in one of the rooms, claiming the better bed.
[22:08] <+Mira_Atella> (( I'll have to find my list of items again, it isn't on my printed out on my sheet ))
[22:08] <@BradGM> ((wait Grim= saw it))
[22:08] <+Mira_Atella> (( blargh, need more beer, can't type ))
[22:09] <@BradGM> Grim, the study is simple, a desk wiht writting equippment, a chair, a reading chair and empty bookshelves
[22:09] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((for Mira - 3 doses of stimm, charm (corpse hair), black bodyglove (common quality clothing))
[22:10] <@BradGM> ((FFWD?))
[22:10] <+Mira_Atella> (( minus the armor/weapons, sounds about right, thanks ))
[22:10] <+Grendel> ((FFWD is fine with me))
[22:10] <+Mira_Atella> (( fine with me ))
[22:11] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((yep))

[22:33] <+Elana> ((on their own?))

As Grendel gets shot in the leg by a dart, Grim saw images of a past life, as well at the highly sofisticated holographic system, making Lord Jex seems life-like.

[20:39] <@BradGM> There's a servoskull dropping down silently. It it equipped with a needle weapon and augery system
[20:40] <+Mira_Atella> "What is that thing trying to do to him?!"
[20:41] * +Alaric comes to his feet and pivots, keeping both the skull and the inquisitor in sight. "What is the meaning of this?"

[20:52] <@BradGM> Jex "Your record is flawless Arbitrator."
[20:53] * +Alaric nods in acceptance and follows the others out.
[20:54] <@BradGM> Captain Rother flies out into hall made of very well polished black stone. He goes about halfway down and stops adn face the wall.
[20:55] <@BradGM> The Servoskull emints some sort of scrambled code and a section of the wall slides up silenty and rapidly.
[20:56] * +Grendel tilts his head, listening to the code, before peering through the opening.
[20:57] * +Alaric looks through as the sections rises.
[20:58] <@BradGM> It flies inside the room where a faint, constant dim flashing light emits from.
[20:58] * +Alaric shrugs and follows.

[21:28] <@BradGM> You are amist a large and elaborate (and ancient-looking) machines with numerous cables, tubes dangles everywhere, half a dozen Tech-Priest of superior skill are communing with the machine spirit. Steams ejects here and there.
[21:29] * +Lazerus_Grim feels really out of place
[21:29] * +Grendel really wants to look around and study the machines, but would like the world to stop spinning as well
[21:30] * +Mira_Atella jumps a bit at the different sounds and sights, attempting to bring her breathing under control.
[21:30] <@BradGM> Captain Rother navigates across the machinery. Servitors are busy maintaing the ancient relic of the past.
[21:32] * +Grendel follows along, taking in the sights as he slowly recovers from the transport, feeling like the machine didn't quite put everything back the same.
[21:37] <@BradGM> You arrive to a small passage. Inqusitor Jex is standing there, waiting.
[21:37] <@BradGM> Jex "Wonderous device is it not?"
[21:38] <+Grendel> "The lack of controls are..unusual."
[21:38] <@BradGM> Jex "It requires a little habit, you may have the chance to exprience it again."
[21:38] * +Mira_Atella looks up without a word, unsure she'd be able to keep her small amount of food and beer down if she opened her mouth.
[21:39] <@BradGM> Jex "Now, some rest and food might be of use. Tomorrow, you begin your formal training."
[21:40] <+Grendel> "Something appropriate to wear?"
[21:41] <@BradGM> Jex "of course."
[21:42] <@BradGM> You exits the room, going inot a large corridor and sits into a chart-servitor.
[21:43] * +Grendel looks around, taking in everything, studying the new servitor.
[21:44] * +Mira_Atella follows for the time, not having the energy or mental feeling to do anything else.
[21:44] <+Grendel> "Simply amazing."
[21:45] <@BradGM> The chart-servitor leaves down the high and large corridor. Many large painting are on the walls, of great men and woman fighitng the many ennemies of Man; but despite what you know, you do not recognized any of the battles or person; short of the Emperor and Saint Drusus
[21:48] * +Grendel makes the sign of the Omnissiah to the picture with the Emperor, otherwise he mostly ignores the pictures, unless they look to have interesting technology depicted in them.
[21:48] <@BradGM> Power weaposn/armour and plasma and such; not your average lasgun
[21:49] * +Grendel studies the pictures, trying to make note of the patterns of the weapons before moving along.
[21:50] <@BradGM> The chart-servitor stops at a door and Lord Jex gets down. "You will found your things in here. Eat and rest, tomorrow, someone will come to begin your training; heed his lessons well.
[21:51] * +Mira_Atella not wanting for another word she opens the door and steps inside, looking for somewhere to sit down.
[21:52] <@BradGM> Jex "I shall also take your keycards."
[21:52] * +Grendel nods to the Inquisitor, wondering just what miracles of technology he can be taught from the Tech-Priests that he has seen.
[21:53] <@BradGM> Jex "You may keep your knives, for now. Consider it a sign of my trust."
[21:53] * +Grendel passes over the keycard.
[21:53] * +Mira_Atella grabs the card from her pocket and hands it to Grendel to pass on.
[21:53] * +Lazerus_Grim holds up the two key cards. "Both of them?"
[21:53] * +Grendel passes over the second keycard as well.
[21:56] * +Grendel steps inside the doors, curiously looking around. "This is an odd day."
[21:57] <@BradGM> You are in a spacious 2 story house with 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen, living room and study. Your things, but not your weapons, are on the kitchen table.
[21:57] * +Mira_Atella thinks she can speak now without decorating their new room in bread and fish, "You think, Techie?"
[21:58] * +Mira_Atella looks to see what things made it to the table for them.
[21:58] * +Grendel grabs his equipment, and without a word disappears into one of the rooms, the door closing behind him.
[21:59] <+Mira_Atella> (( I don't think anything was taken from her, just seeing if there's anything new that they didn't have before ))
[22:01] <@BradGM> ((Your basic gear, minus weapons))
[22:01] <@BradGM> ((and minus amrour))
[22:02] <+Mira_Atella> (( okay, so the workers jackets are gone? ))
[22:03] <@BradGM> ((youR,e wearing them, no?))
[22:03] <+Mira_Atella> (( I remember you had said they were armored.. well hey, who knows what happened when they were knocked out heh ))
[22:04] <@BradGM> ((I meant your basic core book gear is ther eminus armour and wepaons; you ahve everything else))
[22:04] * +Lazerus_Grim hands back both cards and heads inside. "So two bedrooms. Who's my roommate?"
[22:04] * +Grendel returns, much more properly wrapped in his Mechanicus robes, a metal staff with the markings of the Omnissiah firmly seated in his hand.
[22:04] <@BradGM> ((yeah, who wants to sleep in the same room as a psyker?))
[22:05] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((dont everyone raise their hands at once))
[22:05] * +Mira_Atella looks at Grim, "Don't even think about it. Alaric is the only one I semi-trust here and that I wouldn't stab in his sleep."
[22:05] <@BradGM> The food conserver's packed with good food: steaks and vegetables, and condiments.
[22:05] * +Mira_Atella stands up again, feeling much better and heads to the other bedroom to have a look inside at the setup.
[22:07] <@BradGM> It's basic, but doubled; double shower, double sinks, double pantry.
[22:07] * +Lazerus_Grim looks hurt but recognizes the standard anti-psykerism that plagues the Imperium and can't blame her. He quietly grabs his things and walks into the study, opening his book of Imperial Saints and sitting down to read
[22:07] <@BradGM> ((that book'S your charm?))
[22:07] * +Grendel has already dropped the remains of his clothes and gear in one of the rooms, claiming the better bed.
[22:08] <+Mira_Atella> (( I'll have to find my list of items again, it isn't on my printed out on my sheet ))
[22:08] <@BradGM> ((wait Grim= saw it))
[22:08] <+Mira_Atella> (( blargh, need more beer, can't type ))
[22:09] <@BradGM> Grim, the study is simple, a desk wiht writting equippment, a chair, a reading chair and empty bookshelves
[22:09] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((for Mira - 3 doses of stimm, charm (corpse hair), black bodyglove (common quality clothing))
[22:10] <@BradGM> ((FFWD?))
[22:10] <+Mira_Atella> (( minus the armor/weapons, sounds about right, thanks ))
[22:10] <+Grendel> ((FFWD is fine with me))
[22:10] <+Mira_Atella> (( fine with me ))
[22:11] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((yep))

[22:19] <@BradGM> ((yes.))

[22:26] <+Mira_Atella> (( heh I need to reprint these pages anyway, I have scribbles and notes on all the white space ))
[22:28] <+Mira_Atella> (( does the ffwd remove the insanity and penalty? ))
[22:28] <@BradGM> ((so anyone takes on any team ciphers or anything?))
[22:29] <+Grendel> ((hmm, I'd have to look it up))
[22:29] <+Mira_Atella> (( I'm open to suggestions. I don't think I read that part yet ))
[22:29] <@BradGM> ((I'll make it 100 xp for everyone, as you got the resoruces time and all to do it))
[22:31] <+Grendel> ((Sure, why not))
[22:32] <+Mira_Atella> (( I'm taking it team ciphers are just skill advacements that make them work better as a whole instead of on their own? ))
[22:33] <+Elana> ((I think you've lost the penalty, but the points remain))
[22:33] <+Elana> ((on their own?))
[22:34] <@BradGM> ((mostly that team ciphers are secret code that you can use so that it's not obvious you're asking for a gun, or whatever in a publci palce or with compromised comm))
[22:34] <+Mira_Atella> (( I don't know, I searched the pdf for cipher and it came up with nothing ))
[22:34] <@BradGM> ((yeah the -10/-20 rolls are gone now))
[22:34] <+Grendel> ((page 99 for Cipher skill in the main book))
[22:35] <+Elana> ((just think of it as your own special language - though I'm unsure if Ciphers are just for writing or they also work with words))
[22:35] <+Mira_Atella> (( must be a different page in the pdf.. still not sure why it's not finding the word anywhere ))
[22:35] <+Grendel> ((depends on the PDF. if its a fan scan, it may not be searchable))
[22:36] <+Elana> ((err words = spoken stuff))

[22:54] <+Grendel> "Training is not enough for you?"
[22:55] <+Mira_Atella> "Training is training. It's not the same when you're out there and something unexpected happens and you fear for your life to the point your body takes over." Turns the page of her book, "It's different, and boring. No rush to it."

[23:09] <@BradGM> It is Inquisitor Jex "Report to Briefing room 5E4. We shall put your resolve to the test."
[23:10] <@BradGM> The vox-com cuts off
[23:11] * +Grendel turns to look at Mira. "Perhaps your training is done for now."

The white-haired female is armed with ...
