Bio
Hello all :) I've been RP-ing for about 15 years and these days nearly everything I write is through PMs. I'm getting back into this site after taking a break and am mostly looking at starting a few 1x1s but I might jump into a group RP if I'm tempted enough.

Actually, I said earlier...<Snipped quote by SimplyJohn>...you all just seemed to assume that you were walking. So far the only person to magnetise themselves successfully is Hundred, and she's outside.
When I said the ship was at absolute zero, I was referring only to the atmosphere aboard it. The ship's hull and materials still retain some heat, and although there's very little it's still enough to keep the matter above the critical temperature point required for any condensed matter states to become relevant. Otherwise the energy provided by Mez's little light show would've had a far more impressive effect on the hull.
Oh God, physics.... Though I'm following this, I'm a biologist and haven't touched a physics textbook in years.

Brief History:
Ivy was born the middle daughter of a middle-class family in the borough of Camdem, London. Right from when she was very little, Ivy was a tomboy - despite her mother’s protests, but much to her father’s delight. Her favourite movie as a child was The Great Escape. Since first understanding the concept of the military, all Ivy wanted to do was enlist in the British Army. Her mother, knowing she could not sway her head-strong daughter, made her promise to finish her school education first. However, shortly after turning 16, Ivy’s mother died of Leukimia. Not wanting to be a burden on her father who had both her sisters to care for and support, Ivy enlisted that summer.
After a couple of years in the Army, serving mainly as a rear gunner on attack choppers, Ivy began training to be a sniper. Once her training was completed, she was deployed to Iraq. On her first tour, she was given the nickname “Inanna” by the camp’s translator and allied Iraqi soldiers.
Inanna was a Sumerian goddess and her name meant “lady of the sky, or heavens”. Sumeria was an ancient civilisation in modern day Iraq and Inanna was it’s most prominent female deity. Battles are referred to as “the dance of Inanna” and she alone is the only goddess who can travel to the underworld. Inanna was a powerful goddess who could force any man or god to into submission with her powerful dominance and strength.
The nickname was one Ivy was proud to have. She even got the symbol of Inanna, an eight-pointed star, tattooed onto the inside of her right wrist. This was the hand she pulled her guns triggers with. The sight would greatly comfort her.
Ivy served for three tours before she was recruited my MI6 to work for them as a sniper. Ivy had great faith in her government and was honoured to serve her country in any way she could, and so accepted. Fast forward four years and Ivy is one of the best snipers in the world, with a confirmed kill dossier larger than half the agents working for MI6. However, this is also where her life unraveled.
Shortly before turning 27, Ivy was branded a traitor upon returning to England after finishing a mission abroad. Having faith in the justice system, she did not flee. Her court marshall found her guilty of treason, she was stripped of her rank of Corporal, dishonourably discharged and sentenced to life in a maximum security, military prison. The charges against her were of selling secrets to various terrorist groups and criminal syndicates across the globe. Ivy, however, was innocent. A fact she soon realised her superiors, one of them a lover of hers, knew - they had set her up to take the fall for them.
Escaping custody and going on the run from the British government, Ivy found herself in Brazil. The Red ignited contact with her shortly after her arrival in South America, but Ivy was not interested in anything apart from clearing her name and returning home to her family. Her mind was changed when she came across a murderous landowner who was killing tribes of indigenous people in the Amazon rainforest. The landowner was the same man The Red had approached to to terminate. Seeing the terror and suffering the man was bringing upon innocent people, Ivy made the easiest decision she had ever made in her life.
After she had killed the man, The Red contacted her again. This time she accepted their offer.

No one would have time to put on a space suit, though, with only twenty seconds left, even if it's as easy as getting dressed.
You've never seen me wake up late for work in the morning.

<Snipped quote by TTwoThumbsUp>
There's some standard issue environmental suits stowed in the storage locker to the right of the shuttle's airlock. Felix already prompted Farvis about them when he caught him trying to steal the booze. :)
You'd better hurry though, according to Hundred's calculations we've got less than twenty seconds before the shuttle's survivability rating zeroes out.
I'll edit my post and get her to suit up.
What properties do those suits have?
Sevyn could plug Jemini into the wheel socket and use the bot at a wheel, but when brought up to the drone the Syndarin was answered by a rapid succession of high pitched beeps and whirrs, followed by attempted mutilation by blowtorch.
That meant that the plan was a go.
I am loving that little cricket!
