Heaven has exactly one lawyer, but don't tell anyone. Mary Todd's still looking for him.

Woke up Christmas night and there was Santa glaring at me from the door. At least I think it was Santa. We had a marine neighbor, or maybe it was dad? Only neither one had a beard.

Is it weird that I stumbled across the holodeck control panel?

Bio

I am a seven-foot tall minecraft-playing hindu guru drag-queen alien.

Possessor of an Ancient Device™ Model 17. No, I don't know what it does. No, you can't play with it.

Pronouns: It. As in: "What is it? What does it want? Why is it here? Oh my god, it's got my... <insert random body part or object here>"

Likes: World Domination, Writing, Rpg, scifi/fantasy, anime, sketchup 3d models, and anime music videos.

Companions: a host of characters from other games, my personal muse Penny (as in Bad), and the Badger gang - Toothpick, Buttons, Shark, and Mongo. They grew up in the balcony of an old theatre that played a lot of gangster movies. Normally benign, but may invade the OOC forums.

@Expendable I pictured Qaymu more as the sort to hoard old steam-trains, honestly.


Now I suddenly want to redo Qaymu's apartment.



Of course, Qaymu's got a lot of boxes and shelves. Maybe there's a train set in one or two of them.
<Snipped quote by Expendable>

Forklift-certified Dragons hoarding forklifts.


Did you ever wonder about Dragon-Con? Not that I'm saying that Qaymu is in any way associated with that.... ;P

Just mind who you bump into, most fans will think being doused in ketchup and swallowed whole is some sort of photo op.
Are we sure this Dragon (Good) is really... Y'know... A Good Dragon...? *raised eyebrow and skeptic face*


Qaymu hasn't eaten any resident here (as far as you know). For a dragon, he's being very accommodating. And he certainly didn't have anything to do with any sudden departures of the maid service.
Are there lesser or minor phalanxes, or is this it? How would you classify someone with the ability to psychometrically read the history of an object - the older, the better, with a lean towards furniture and art. Psychiccer or astra?
Nooo! Dragon man can't go smoking the gremlins out! That would ruin the whole game! That's cheating!




Dragon


The dragon is an unstoppable superweapon, and will use its flame as early and as often as possible instead of keeping it in reserve. Any survivors will this learn not to venture further. He's going to be very hungry next week and will want to make sure nothing affects his food.

"Who dares send thugs to assault fair ladies such as ourselves?" Gabs retorted angrily, staring past the brawlers to Balenof. "Why shouldn't we use everything we have against those who threaten violence when none was offered, no doubt wishing to take advantage of us and relieve us of our virtue? If you wish us to leave, have you no courage to face us yourself, or is courtesy a lost art in these lands?"

She might have grown up in the streets, but she had a good pair of ears, a small talent for verse, and a vocabulary that would put the old madams of bawdy houses to shame.



Nikos

Zeppelin #27, Gondola



Nikos scowled. That communist mechanic, having worked out the exact number of bars, it was going to be hard to make a few go 'missing' during the loading. Nor could he load extra, if they wanted to be able to escape this place when the invaders were so close.

His eyes glanced up at the catwalk, then headed over to the dumbwaiter, sliding up the hatch and began loading the stores inside. This would at least allow him to move the stores up to the galley, then they could be stacked in the dining room. It would be a bit cramp, but he wouldn't have to come down much afterward. Of course, with everyone else at their post, he'd have to go up and empty it himself. With a grumble, he pressed the button that sent the first shipment up, then headed towards the ladderwell.
Qaymu


Bldg 1, Restaurant
@Lemons - Velvet



Hmmm, Qaymu mused. Older than I expected. Good move, I'm likely to lose this game. I really should have played more, there's so much rust here.

He glanced up at Velvet and frowned. "Are you...?" he began, but she had started talking to the Japanese girls. The one's aura was interesting to watch. He wondered briefly if she'd ever learned how to contain it, having noted its effect in passing on others. Even ordinary humans were affected - although both did have a certain appealing appearance to humans that might excuse it.

He gave them a wary but respectful nod.

The assistant manager's announcement made him frown in concern. Gremlins running lose in the building? And she wanted them caught and handed over? He was not even going to be allowed to roast a few? Well, he could still use his flame as encouragement.
I managed to catch the flu. Today's challenge - keeping food down.

Gabs ducked under the younger man's swing and butted her head towards his chin as she drew her short sword.

"Really," she grinned, "You're going to take on people wearing armor and weapons? And tuck your thumbs inside your fists? Idiots."

What idiot started this mess?
