[OOC] Mass Effect: Underworld

@BlackSam3091

When will we see that update? :D

[An Outsider]

@Rithy Very soon.

EDIT: Realized that's a shit of an answer. Just waiting on POOHEAD to post, then I'll get the update up.

[Rithy]

@Rithy (incoming TPK) Very soon.

EDIT: Realized that's a shit of an answer. Just waiting on POOHEAD to post, then I'll get the update up.

@BlackSam3091

Yay! xD

[PrivateVentures]

@BlackSam3091 Oh, and don't worry, my next post burns him out and exposes some damage to the suit. The last maneuver wasn't without serious consequences. Which reminds me, @Rithy, would Vella mind changing out Ellis' heat sinks? He won't be able to get behind cover unless someone does, and he's too weak. Seriously, though, holy crap, it's hard to know what is and is not information to disclose. I was just as bad at DnD, with GM communication. I think it's my tendency to write in secrets and plot twists, and mysterious hidden agendas and junk. It does great in horror and thrillers, but terrible in role play.

@PrivateVentures Hang fire there until the next update post pal, Didact and I are mentioning Ellis' precarious position in that.

[PrivateVentures]

@BlackSam3091 Oh absolutely.

And, in the response to Pizza, you guys should check out Inca Red Drop peppers on pizza. They're mild to moderate, with a sweet, zingy taste that still has a little heat. Great with onions and pineapple.

[Rithy]

@PrivateVentures

She probably could ^^

Though that'll depend on a few factors, such as
- Ellis is not cut off from the group by Cerberus.
- Vella recognizing the problem in the middle of a firefight.
- Vella not viewing the exotic tech on Ellis' suit as too alien for her to try.
- That there'll be time for her to run a little troubleshoot, as while Vella is familiar with power armor, she hasn't worked with a suit like Ellis' before.

and of course

- That her current grenade trick doesn't fail and the room falls on their heads ^^

... , Didact and I are mentioning Ellis' precarious position in that.

Ok ladies and gents, so we got a big problem on our hands in the shape of a literal army of Husks. 2000 might seem excessive, but fuck it, who doesn't like high stakes.

So the players on the infiltration team now have to play nursemaid to the scientists, while fighting their way through waves of Husks on their way to the Assault teams position, while the Assault team have to finish off the turrets, save Ellis (if they want to. They could choose to let him die!) while also dealing with whatever packs of Husks that come screaming from that tunnel before the infiltration team. Think Nazi Zombie mode in COD.

@POOHEAD189 Sorry I couldn't fold your last contribution more effectively into the post. Between Ark and Vella's barrier, there really wasn't many options I could see there to make Skarr's efforts more effective. However I'm thinking, and if @MrDidact is agreeable, we could let Skarr have access to his full range of Biotic powers again, like you planned originally. It doesn't look like AquaAzura is coming back with her Asari, so that opens the Biotic role up. Gives you a bit more versatility in play.

Also, for anyone looking for a really high quality Superpowered RP in an original universe with unbelievably developed lore, you should go check out Vigilance: Blood and Justice run by my buddy @Lord Wraith. It'll be well worth your time.

Ffffffff GM post happens as I'm taking pup to vet... *cries in corner*

[rivaan]

@BlackSam3091 Me is hev a question! I gave Salissa this Fortified barrier generator in her powers/skills section. If we assume its sturdy enough if the biotics pull Ellis away from the explosion to a point, will she be able to protect him with it? Though now that I think about it we never discussed what form that would take... hmm this is problem

[An Outsider]

@rivaan It's certainly an option, though would it be big enough to cover both Salissa AND Ellis, who's armour makes him abnormally large to begin with?

[rivaan]

@BlackSam3091 Well she's called fortress for a reason, if we assume it creates a spherical barrier of sorts around herself she can just jump on top of Ellis and basically protect both of them. Though I imagine the strain from a bloody CAIN worhty explosion even from the distance would pretty much drain the shield's energy to zero. Which reminds me... THE DRELL IS GETTING A SPANKING AFTERWARDS!

[Silver Fox]

@BlackSam3091 question, did you call Phalanx 'Legion'?

[An Outsider]

@BlackSam3091 question, did you call Phalanx 'Legion'?

@Silver Fox

Would you believe that it's Anderson's pet name for her?

[An Outsider]

@rivaan Try it then, and me and D will decide how well it works. We'll be kind, I swear. A barrier that size may come in handy holding back the literal horde of Husks coming her way though, so you sure you want to use it on Ellis? He's kinda a dick.

[rivaan]

@BlackSam3091 Knighty principles D; !!! and she does have a omnishield to block door access with but hmmm... will have to decide on that tomorrow since now it will be sleepy sleepy time.

[Rithy]

*Reads*

xD I knew they'd remember the YMIR's self-detonation sequence!!

[Leos Klien]

@rivaanI am not ;-;
The godammned tunnels survived the reapers they can survive the Cain wannabe!
Psssht, we Brits made those tunnels, takes more than that to make em collapse.

[rivaan]

@Leos Klienmore like... a reaper party on the surface with all the tremors and explosions and stuff and then a huge exploding robot underneath xD? plus its not about the tunnels... its about catching your own teammates with the explosions... rule number one.. never shoot hte Ymir in the head @_@... bloody things.... how many times I had to reload because of that.
