At first, it seemed things had calmed down. She could only follow Ovaan and hope they were still going the right way.

And then the screaming started again. No sooner had they arrived and Ovaan gone to land did someone start absolutely losing their mind. Velona grit her teeth. Couldn't at least one other person hold it together around here!? She spread her senses out to the max to get an idea of what was happening around her. There were four individuals, though only three still stood. One seemed to have a tail growing out of their head and another... just had a tail.

She froze up. That last one. Such a familiar shape. Not one she knew specifically, but so achingly similar.

"Kaio-Ken!"

And now the one with the strange head appendage was letting out an absurd amount of power. Velona didn't need the ability to sense energy to know it was too much for her to handle, especially in her condition, but her mind made itself up regardless of sense. She had too many questions and no time or patience for people to be tearing each other apart right now!

She hadn't yet made her landing like Ovaan, so instead she burst into motion, like one missile moving to intercept another. Had she simply flown into the strange being's path, she no doubt would have been flattened. Instead she shot straight down and, with one last burst of power, aimed to strike the being's ankle with the tip of her foot.

With any luck, she'd forcibly alter their trajectory, causing them to fly themselves into the ground and crash, giving them all a chance to figure out what the hell was going on! Assuming she succeeded...

"AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO-" She paused and cleared her throat, proceeding with a modicum more decorum, "Am I the only one who hasn't gone completely insane around here?!" She glanced toward Ovaan and the odd girl they'd found, looking to them for back-up should things get any messier. At least she knew they were (hopefully) on her side for the time being.

If there's a problem with anything please let me know.

Just got back from my folk's place this weekend. Sorry, something came up. I'll be able to start replying in a little bit.

@Chev

Nah, just me being a mixture of impatient and needlessly passive-aggressive. :P

The Official RPG Writer's Club!

This could be neat.

@Double@KillamriX88
I hope I didn't stump you two too much so that now you can't come up with ideas to post.

@PPQ Purple

That's not the problem I assure you.

Mass Effect: Phoenix | A 24th century adventure in space

Mission overview:

An Asari matriarch contacted the Citadel claiming to have vital information that has been determined to be extremely relevant to the mission of the W-178. Matriarch Sotiria is located on one of the rebuilt colonies in the Terminus sector, on Planet Chalkhos.

Dossier:

Full name: Matriarch Sotiria T'keros

Race: Asari

Citizenship: Terminus Systems, Chalkhos

Aliases: Matriarch

Age: 889

Gender: Female

Psych. Eval.: She is one of the few survivors of the Reaper's invasion and subsequent bombardment of Chalkhos. The Reapers sudden, albeit violent, departure is likely the only reason she or anyone else survived.

She has shown great diligence and power of will by returning Chalkhos to a place worth living upon after being nearly completely razed to the ground. She has also shown the ability and willingness to deal with and negotiate with Aria T'loak following the latter's expansion into other parts of the Terminus cluster. The fact that Aria seems to be willing to leave Sotiria with any level of autonomy says quite a bit about her capabilities.

While formerly rather chaotic, Chalkhos and the surrounding region has become quite stable under Matriarch Sotiria's influence, and is becoming a rather potent economic hub.

Phys. Eval.: While likely having some combat training in the past, she has long since become more of a governor, and is in most ways a typical civilian asari.

5' 8” tall with darker blue skin, with perhaps a tint of violet.

Biotics: Typical asari, with literal centuries of practice, though she has long since stopped putting it to any strenuous practice.

Qualifications: Effectively the governor of the largest settlement on Chalkhos. Centuries spent growing her influence, culminating in her effectively controlling the area around her cluster at least behind the scenes. Though, if anyone asks, Aria owns it all.

History:
Being 800 plus years old, there's too much to go through. More important is the last 100 since the reapers created a hole for her to fill when they killed most everyone else on Chalkhos. She took charge of the shattered group of survivors and when help eventually arrived after the end of the Reapers, it didn't take long for word to get out that Chalkhos was a prime location for those looking to rebuild to head to.

The Terminus systems had always been bordering on, if not totally, lawless in many parts. However, there were plenty who just wanted to live, and for those, Sotiria heard them. Having spent much of her life there, she was no stranger to those shadier dealings and knew her way around them. She knew just how far she could push the limit without becoming some underworld kingpin herself. She could help those with simpler intentions survive. She could build an economy that wasn't based entirely on stealing and smuggling illicit goods.

But she still had connections. Many had been lost, but she just found new ones. She wasn't the only one filling a gap in the aftermath, and she helped cherry pick many of those replacements, hoping to build it all back as something better. After all, the stronger the economy, the more the underworld had to work with as well, so in the end... everyone could win. At least that's how she pitched it to her more stubborn detractors.

There are, however, myriad rumors of how she attained the power she has. Many other Asari are not a fan of her, as rumors abound she made unsavory use of the Asari's innate ability to appear attractive to many species, which of course only fueled one of the less loved stereotypes about Asari.

Recruited: N/A

Notoriety: 6
Spend enough time in the terminus systems these days, and her name is bound to come up eventually. If not her directly, you're likely to run into part of her network. And, if nothing else, if you make a big enough splash – she'll definitely know about you.

She is, however, lesser known outside of Terminus space as her influence is far, far lesser in other sectors, though her name may still carry weight with some.

Mission details:

The Matriarch Contacted the Citadel eight days ago. After having confirmed her status and agreeing that she is worth speaking to, the assignment was passed on to the W-178 now that it has been green-lit and crewed.

Subsequent communication has suggested that the Matriarch is now in fear for her life. It seems others have become aware that she contacted the Citadel. Whether it is whoever is involved with her intel, or simply those in the Terminus Sector who are not fans of the Citadel is unknown. This is now the W-178's first priority assignment.

The Matriarch has supplied basic information about her retinue in case of any complications. Caution is to be exercised, but those listed should not pose a threat.

The Matriarch has also called for other outside assistance in the form of a mercenary. She has only supplied her name and physical metrics. All other information on this mercenary being supplied is currently unverified, though she seems to have a bit of a local reputation. The crew is to take this information with a grain of salt, though it should not prove terribly relevant to the task at hand.

@KillamriX88@PPQ Purple

Velona mentioned a commotion, which I can only assume is referring to the Supreme Kai of Time's shout? I'd like to know which of the other groups we'll be heading toward before I post.

@Double

Yes it's the stuff with the Supreme Kai of time. I didn't even think the other group was making a commotion at all.

Dragon Ball: Shattered Worlds

Cool. That's all I needed to know. Anyway, when you do post and have more free time PM me. (does this forum have a PM system? I assume it does) I have a question or two. But no rush because it's for the super long term. Like a season from now worth of long term.

@PPQ Purple

At the top right of the site there is a big button that says "PM" right next to "Subs" and your profile. You can start a PM convo with anyone by going to their profile and hitting the big blue button. You can't miss it.

Dragon Ball: Shattered Worlds

@KillamriX88 No I skim read the posts before the post and thought someone was more mechanical based. I just errored up because I read Chev's post and it happened to be in the wrong group. That was my fault i'll edit my post.

@Chev What members of the group are there so I can edit my post accordingly?

@vancexentan

As far as I can tell, we have Majin Eve (Nac), Yaksha (Atom), Maize (King), and the Supreme Kai of Time (Chev).

Dragon Ball: Shattered Worlds

@vancexentan Is he calling the Majin a robot?

@PPQ Purple

Ovaan's reaction, in a nutshell, started off like this:



Only to transition into this:

@Double

Don't worry, Velona will keep ya boy on task.
