Alrighty, thank you. I just wanted to be sure the PCs (or someone with a scope or ability) could gain a visual on an abnormal event.

@Mokley Just to be clear, is there a visible change in the weather above the diamond mine?
He executed a gentle salute to Liam with the mouthpiece of his pipe, and thought ..nice fella. Spared a polite gesture to a stranger. Not too common these days. Otto heard rumbling several miles west of the city. His eyes moved back and forth beneath his hood, surveying the horizon for a turn in the weather.
The fizzle from the feedback was very short-lived when the audio feed from the city's PA system cut out.
If Otto still had hair on the back of his neck, it would be standing upright. Media devices were known to be affected by electrical currents caused by adverse weather. Otto muttered to himself,"Isn't the Queens address system hard-wired? Hmm, pretty sure it's a closed circuit. I wonder who they're gonna fry for this hiccup?" He would attempt to humor himself in situations such as this. The alternative solution would be to investigate. "There was time when I would. Just let the engineers handle it, old fart."
...you have an exceptional day --

Oh god this is going to be a novel, I apologize in advance
The story develops better if you write a nice long narrative as the GM. Go for it!
Fail: I meant Vincent
Looks like most of the PCs are ready for Dazz to act...maybe even taze.
Might do that synopsis post tomorrow, complete with responses to people waiting on Dazz.

If it's just oral fixation, we should buy Liam a pack of toothpicks. Practical, gets the job done and looks bad ass. Then he can flick them into the fire and walk away. Call me crazy, but I'm just spit-balling here. :D
"Well. I suppose it's effective."
His inspection was mostly complete. There were discrepancies to report, for sure. Otto's equipment wasn't designed to detect angles, missed rivets...the sort of things the naked eye could detect. Were it any other day, or if the inspection was being carried out by the appropriate number of personnel, W-0173 would be a 'no-go.'
Otto, in his typical hunched-over fashion, stood in the suspended cable trolley at even level with the wall's summit. Indebted workers, robots and foremen busily moved around performing various tasks. He even noticed a few people who were working hard-exceptionally hard-at doing nothing meaningful. Otto gained the attention of a nearby loader robot by throwing a loose screw at it. "Hey fella. Mosey on over here, give this old man an assist, will ya?"
The metal and plastic-clad robot clanked and zipped towards the trolley and stopped between it and the wall. Otto grabbed his bag and used the robot as a step to arrive atop the wall's surface. "Royal funds, hard at work." A stack of unused girders lay nearby, which Otto found as the ideal perch to recover from several minutes of painstakingly boring work. He prepped his wooden pipe and puffed away, waiting patiently for an opportunity to speak with the woman in charge of the workers. Now seemed like a bad time. She looked pissed.

@Mokley
Definitely a good idea, especially for the first chapter of the adventure. I think we'll all get to know the characters well enough after a few rounds. Plus, reading others' stories is the best part for me!
If it might help, I once did a thing in another RP where every round I'd write up a tl;dr for what's happening at the moment in the RP and where everyone is.

Indeed! We have a large group here.
@SmertlessYou haven't missed the start yet. We still have about six registered characters without an IC post. It's all good in the hood!
@MokleyAgreed. The @ strategy would work. However, if said character is interacting with another character with whom they have not been formally introduced, a physical description of the other PC would probably suffice. Seems as though the PC lineup is very diverse!
