Nyx is currently landed on planet in a large clearing. Time is almost 22:00 ship time, but the planet still has a few hours of sunlight left since the Nyx landed.

Pilots Sara Hawkins @vietmyke & Cassandra Atkov @Civetta were both deployed for recon with several military personnel to set up a large perimeter.

MacKenzie Newton @Fuzzybootz was trapped in a storage room on the Nyx while sent to check all active droids aboard the ship, however while in a storage room, she was knocked unconscious by debris from an overhead shelf just in time for the Nyx to launch from the Vitae, thereby locking all non-essential doors and trapping her inside the storage room. She was then later found and brought to the medbay where she was patched up and is now on her way to find Gavon TreVayne (@Rawk) in order to explain the situation and request permission to continue with the away team.

Amara Locke @Subject Zero assisted Kenzie in the medbay and then immediately headed for the cargo bay to pack up supplies needed before boarding the Beast Command Vehicle

Karen Anderson @Draken is currently waiting to board the Beast Command Vehicle

Michael @Heat decided to take a stroll and never came back...j/k...actually, he did and is on his way to board the Beast Command Vehicle.

Gavon Trevayne @Rawk is currently up in the Navigation/Cockpit area of the Beast Command Vehicle, along with the (NPC) Captain Eccleson and the Beast's driver/pilot. He was tasked with overseeing the Civilian population during the away mission.

Captain Bryenna Eccleson: military Captain overseeing mission, currently up in the Navigation/Cockpit section of the Beast Command Vehicle.

Lt. Rorq: sent along to spearhead the geological survey. Anyone doing earth-science type stuff is encouraged to use her.

On that note, I know some of you are reeeeaaally busy with real life stuff but if you could please give @Rawk or @Heat a small message to let them know what's going on, with it being finals and coming up to Christmas I am willing to be more lenient for deadlines but please let us know you are still alive.

I LIIIIIIVE!
I need to get my bearings with the most recent posts, but your summary helps a lot, @Rawk. Thanks!

No worries @Draken, your next post can essentially be Karen's activities up to boarding the Beast Command Vehicle. I am working on the next post to move things forward...

@Rawk NPCs: Lt. Rorq was sent along to spearhead the geological survey. Anyone doing earth-science type stuff is encouraged to use her.

@Sep I've decided to wait for the thing with the cryopods to blow over before introducing Aria Summers. I don't want what I want to do with that setting to mix up or interfere with what's actually going on in the setting.

@Rawk NPCs: Lt. Rorq was sent along to spearhead the geological survey. Anyone doing earth-science type stuff is encouraged to use her.

Thanks mate, I added it to the OP :)

Disclaimer: Fell asleep writing that, will double-check on boxing day and make any/all fixes as necessary.

First of all, I hope you had a very good holiday (whichever you celebrated) and am hoping you for all the best in the New Year. Due to the holiday season, and before that scholary season, I have posted in order to keep the ball rolling to prevent stagnation. So the Away Team (You know who you are) are now in the active zone where you can start exploring and looking around. There are very few ground rules on what is in the area, feel free to invent (The only thing I am keeping under the control of the GMs are the spheres).

As this is our first away mission, where we have a lot of people working towards similar objectives we're going to try something. Each PC is going to be part of a Survey Team consisting of at least 3 (up to eight) members, plus two security personnel (humanoid or droid). These squads however will be manned largely by NPCs, don't feel the need to delve into backstory unless you feel like it. "Dave who specializes in biology" works fine for me. If you so wish to collab, you can go along with one other player character (I expect you to organize these duos by yourselves) which will allow for collabs but won't cause them to clog things up.

These groups can cross paths, though only for a short period of time. Though if someone leaves a group (I.E. If @Rawk and @Heat were a group, and Michael wandered off by himself @Rawk could go chill with @FuzzyBootz as @Subject Zero went running after @Heat) another player can fill the buddy slot. Any questions on this feel free to ask, I feel like I may have written it in an overcomplicated way but it's really simple.

People on the ship:

If you're bored, not sure what you want to do. Drop me a mention, I'll sort something out for you (Similarily to what I did for @The Spectre).

Still accepting players?

Still accepting players?

Though your question was answered in the Discord, yes. Yes we are.

@Fuzzybootz @Heat @Subject Zero @Draken

Civilian Away Team post is up...

Aside from the military detachment who are currently setting up a perimeter 50 meters from the Beast Command Vehicle, the civs are assigned two Sec Agents and with a couple of science teams (NPCs) who are doing whatever it is they do to survey the area.

I had thought about allowing each player to make their own team, but after all was said and done only @Draken was left without already having a predetermined team, so I assigned.

Anyway, there it is. If you have a problem with the grouping...suck it up ;)

Well, I have finally posted after months of not posting because of reasons.

Good to have you back :)

*checks up on the RP I have procrastinated joining* So...how's it lookin' fellas and ladies? What's been going on in the RP?

@POOHEAD189 A lot, though I am afraid we're not currently accepting at the moment due to Christmas busy period. We're getting everything back on track before we consider bringing in new blood.

Alas, poor @Sep! I knew him, @Rawk; a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy; he hath borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how abhorred in my imagination it is!

He should do it more often, it was a good post.

Agreed. Although the funny part is I made that comment before reading his IC, so now I get why he made his OOC post.
