[OOC] Mass Effect: Brink

[DirtyDingo]

Sorry that was so short, there was just not much room to do much with such a short distance between the five characters. Left space for either a short @Gowi post before @The Nebulous advances us, probably to Zik or whatever cool shit he has in store.

[The Nebulous]

That was just fine. Not every post needs to put on a dog-and-pony show to hold up to "Advanced" standards, if that's what you're worried about.

Everything is moving along just fine, but if anyone needs help, hit me up over PMs and we can maybe work out a collaborative or kick around some ideas.

[DirtyDingo]

More worried with my own standards to be honest matr.

Vuulnoghd intensifies...

[The Nebulous]

This is cool and all, but I noticed you don't have a Volus? You should have a Volus.

Here is a Volus.

Omus Vol

"Just according to vuulnoghd..."
_{(translator addendum: vuulnoghd means 'plan')}

Omus was the Dasher's "quartermaster;" which is a polite way of saying he was a gun runner and profiteer who decided hawking (and, conveniently, growing) his inventory out of a pirate ship was good business. He is the perfect picture of Volus vice: A greedy, scheming, self-important opportunist whose loyalty can't be earned -- merely rented. When the Alliance ambush hit and the evacuation order was given, he was the first to abandon ship. In fact, he was abandoning ship before the crew was told to get away. ...You know, come to think of it, nobody's even sure where he was when that whole thing started.

Despite his self-centered avarice, his seething contempt for the frivolous nature of the "Dash-clan" and his reluctance to get personally involved in anything resembling 'heavy lifting', Vol brought a lot to the table. In addition to supplying a respectable panoply of arms and equipment, he had a knack for tinkering, frequently working to create new and improved shield, tool and weapon modifications, which he was only too happy to make available to his companions at very little additional cost. If he ever does get involved in a firefight, then what he lacks in mobility and speed is made up for in cutting-edge weaponry and disgustingly overpowered personal defences he hasn't bothered to share with anyone else.

In the time since the crew broke up, things have gone better for Vol than they have for even the most fortunate of the others. In fact, he's now a minor crime lord on Omega, openly peddling high-powered weapons to every side and slowly expanding his territory. It hasn't been difficult. As one might expect amongst the seedier, more volatile levels of the station, he's had no shortage of customers.

Omus harbors a special grudge against Zik, who has an inborn talent for foiling his schemes. Even today, wheezing, pressure-suited cries of "ZIIIIIIIIIIIK!" can be heard drifting up through the ventilation shafts of Omega's lower levels. That said: his credits are as good as anyone else's. Even the best vendettas have to take a back seat to good business, after all.

@Culluket

Oh, crap! @Culluket, your post snuck in there and I didn't even see it. I'm sorry! You're approved, and welcome aboard! Feel free to jump in anywhere on Omega. The others are converging on Declan and Trish at the moment.

[Culluket]

I thought that was what happened. I did briefly consider seeing how long I could string it out for as a joke, but decided that was too self-defeating, even for me.

And I'll jump in, alright. *steeples pudgy metal digits* Oh, how I'll jump in.

[DirtyDingo]

Anyone planning on moving us up?

[Culluket]

Dropping a post shortly that will definitely agitate the pot.

[Culluket]

Here are the VORCHA you ordered.

[The Nebulous]

@Culluket, that post had me rolling. xD And I got your PM. Everyone! Kill the vorcha! SEND IN THE KROGAN!

Edit: ... But we should wait until Howler catches up with us. :P

[Howler]

Apologies, been a busy week. I'll be around more this weekend, but if you want to fast forward to Zik arriving to once more foil the plans of Omus Vol, well, I can't say I'd be opposed.

[The Nebulous]

Such an insane cast of characters! I love you all!

...And what's wrong with "Dashers", [@Howler?] lol!

[DirtyDingo]

@Gowi @Zorogami Who wants to get stuck in first?

@Howler @Culluket How many Vorcha are there, roughly?

[Culluket]

As many as would make an entertaining workout before lunch.

[Howler]

As many as would make an entertaining workout before lunch.

@Culluket

Current estimates place this at approximately 700 gallons of vorcha, @DirtyDingo, if that helps!

[Zorogami]

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of posts/communication, was pretty sick over the weekend, but im doing a lot better now.
I'm currently working on my next Abrax post, stay tuned for updates :D

[DirtyDingo]

Shall I wait for Gowi or go ahead?

[Culluket]

Carpe vorcha.

[Gowi]

Shall I wait for Gowi or go ahead?

@DirtyDingo

You probably should wait for me, considering.

[Zorogami]

My Krogan blood is anxious for battle, someone post! :P
