((To the contrary, Coral left the post very open, just as a good RPer would. Deimos can avoid the missles, shoot them down, or whatever and show off while he RPs... you know? ;D))

(Perhaps me and my little squad of grunty yes-men left the Draconis sector. Up to you. The ship isnt cloaked either, it has some mirror generator stuff that makes it sort of invisible or whatever, and my radar picked it up, and we use a radio array to track it, which put a visible tracker on the screen. And about bugs on the station, they are hidden in a few room that they... 'borrowed', and continually steal from and murder the chefs for food. The station has no visible infections, and the bugs are masked by special fields. They hide their flyer bugs in an abandoned docking module, and have a network of tunnels and air ducts for fast travel and ambushes. They hacked most of the station's systems so they can control whats going on. Therefore, if a potentially meaty(Read: FAT) target walks in, his skeleton is shot out in a coffin.

gullable then. if he meets up with sirus and sho he'll become good.  I want a good guy around, and if your really good at roleplaying, you might have a lot of fun roleplaying a really stupid but strong fighter. I always wanted to do that.....lol. |

Well, hes stupid because all he can do is kill, find a way to kill, annoy people, keep prisoners, and command a bug base. Contrary to instinct, he treats his prisoners well usually, but when food runs short, he kills them for food.

I dont think you know what I mean... I'm an experienced roleplayer, and have been part of a few dungeon and dragon groups, and am currently part of a d20 modern group. its very difficult to play a stupid character. You have to think about what they are going to say and do from their point of view. Listening a character who is stupid talk can be so funny. Short, nonsense sentenses come together with abrupt actions to make a very fun character to play with -- and a difficult one to control. If you think you can come up with a character like this to roleplay, and dont mind making him 'stupid' (literally), you might have a good time. If he is SUPER gullable, then he can switch from good to bad very quickly. lol that sounds like fun.... sup to you. |

((Okay guys...yeah...sorry for the hold up again...my work schedule interferes with my posting time, ANYway- I decided to use this as a good time to show off the Black Squall’s combat system))
*Just as Sho began to head down to the White Squall docking port- the whole interior of the the cabin lit up with a bright red. A whole new set of holo-panels also came up all over the control arc, each flashing: WARNING- ENEMY PROJECTILE LAUNCH DETECTED. Cygnus gave him the report on the situation as Sho turned around*
“Sho! the station fired a missile barrage- contact will be made in 50seconds and counting- your command?!”
*With a gleam in his eye and tilted grin acoss his face- Sho quickly followed up* “Shut down mirror surface generator, initiate primary manual combat system NOW!”
*In a split second- all the lights in the cabin shut down, Sho jumped onto a raised circular pad at the rear of the cabin- and was then surrounded by a holo-sphere as the whole cabin was illuminated with smaller holo-panels. The rest of the cabin itself then seemed to disappear into darkness- fading and giving way to a full 360° view of the Black Squall’s surroundings. With 30 seconds to go- he put on a pair of gloves, glowing at the fingertips and a matching headset- everything was almost ready, with one detail left...*
“Your selection for today captain?” Cygnus asked
“I’ll do...something I can relax with...oh- a Beethoven- the...Sonata in C-Sharp minor, Op. 27 No. 2, Moonlight”
*With that, he had 15 seconds to go- and just as the music started- Sho began to move his arms about. With swift and gracious movements- he began to conduct his ships in combat. With each different twist of the hand and flick of the wrist, a different defensive came up- laser pods, turret fire, and rail gun fire. Movements with his entire arms would move the ship, all in perfect harmony with the classical music in the background. The Black Squall became an extension of his whole- dodging and firing with his thoughts, drifting and darting at a moments notice, as if dancing through the battlefield, with Sho conducting its choreography. The only limitation would be the strength of the Black Squall itself- it’s ability to keep up with Sho’s commands. Of course, dodging and shooting down missiles was menial...there was no stress at all*
((for those who didn’t notice...I got the idea from Minority Report- great movie))

"Report!" barked Zraask
"Sir! Ship decloaked, identified as Corvette-class, IFF says its the Black Squall, a pirate ship! Its activating combat maneuvers!"reported the Executive Officer.
"Send out the flyers and call back our surprise party. Fire all weapons that can get a lock!"
"Yessir!"
Sixteen missiles lept from their tubes, white smoke and all. Forty-eight flyer bugs flew out of an abandoned docking module, and the Bug Command Center on the station flurried with movement.
