Falling Skies: Reboot (Mecha, Space Opera)

I have about another week in the field before I'm finally home!

Falling Skies: Reboot (Mecha, Space Opera)

@vietmyke still alive and will be with the group by June! Still in the field, returning home on May 27th (tentative but most likely)

Rise of the Shield Hero - From Another World

My likely return date will be the 29th!!

Rise of the Shield Hero - From Another World

I'm sorry for not posting after I said I would! I've been feeling a pretty hardcore case of writer's block v.v I will try to get through it and get a post up for you guys today. As a reminder, I'm leaving for the field tomorrow morning so I'll be off the radar until June 7th at the latest (could be back as early as May 26th though). I'll have the occasional opportunity to have my phone in the field so I wont be entirely out of touch, but I definitely wont have time to post while I'm out there.

Again sorry for the procrastination everyone! I'm still very much in for this RP!

Rise of the Shield Hero - From Another World

Oh my I totally didn't realize it was my turn to post! Woops! I'll try to get one up in the near future!

Rise of the Shield Hero - From Another World

So heads up! On April 19th, the military will be deploying me to the field for a large scale training exercise. I'll be gone from 19 April to anywhere from 26 May - 7 June. I'm not gonna be able to post at all during that time, but I'm definitely not out for the count! So we'd probably be best to either put the RP on hiatus during that time, or Auriel can split off for that time and you guys can keep going until I make my return!

@Whoami would Auriel know some spells she could have taught Fer? lol

@Omni5876

She could probably teach the two of them some healing spells. But a lot of her healing and magic comes from her divine gift. She seems to be genuinely blessed with a holy gift.

Regrouping

(Mood Music)

Auriel had finished signing the book out from the library. She had no intention of returning it, lest the Church discover its contents and destroy it as well. Auriel had seen the corruption in the Church of the Four, and it worried her. Now that she was uncovering more of the truth behind their actions, would she become a liability to them and their agenda? Auriel kept quiet as she turned back toward the library. Then she heard the armoured bootsteps of a knight approaching her. He notified her that the heroes had come for her, and before Auriel could even take a moment to gather her wits, the knight was taking her to the exit of the Cathedral. It was clear that despite her rank and stature within the Church's hierarchy, she wasn't as welcomed there as she had originally thought.

Auriel stepped out the large front doors of the Cathedral and immediately saw the two heroes. She smiled and made her way down the marble steps to greet them. She hear Cole explain the plan, "We're going back out? Are we sure we can do this before the first wave comes?" She stopped herself and nodded obediently to Cole, "Very well. I don't need any supplies, I'm still quite well stocked from our last foray into the countryside."

She looked to Fer and smiled again, chuckling at his lightheartedness. It was something she could appreciate even as the pressure of their task loomed ever more oppressively over them. She nodded to him, "You have nothing to fear! So long as I am fighting by your side, no harm will come to either of you."

Kills
--DATA REDACTED BY ORDER OF THE IMPERIAL SECRET SERVICE--
--ANY ATTEMPT TO ACCESS SUCH DATA WILL BE CONSIDERED TREASON OF THE HIGHEST DEGREE--

Psychological Analysis
Dearil has become very aware of his own mortality after what he saw during his time in the Imperial Secret Service. Doing the dark and dirty handiwork of the Emperor has jaded Dearil over time, which negatively affected his relationship with his wife and daughter. Dearil has never looked back since leaving the ISS, and has found himself to be quite comfortable working a mundane job such as piloting a cargo transport. Dearil is a very lax kind of guy, preferring to throw formality out the window to live it up like every moment could be his last. He shows heightened levels of excitement and anxiety as he intends on leaving behind his military career in order to finally give his family the father it needs. With his MAS days behind him, Dearil often will often look back reverently at the good times as his chapter of duty draws to an end.

Personal Record
Dearil really doesn't talk much about his past, mainly because everyone knows he can't exactly say much about his history. It is no secret to his peers that Dearil once served in the Imperial Secret Service as a covert agent of the Emperor. Many people has simply resigned to the reality that finding out about the deeds he has committed during his mysterious tenure are best left unspoken. Being that his time in the ISS took up a large portion of his military career, Dearil found himself unable to relate to many of the rank and file soldiers of the regular military. Still, he tried his best. Once he was managed to transfer out of the ISS and become a transport pilot, Dearil took to his new job gleefully. No longer did he have to soak his hands with guilt.

Dearil has since flown for the 5th fleet in his trusty bucket of a transport, The River Styx. He has been running routine flights between all of the ships of the 5th fleet on the daily, transporting all the goods to allow for the fleet to operate at its best from weapons and ammunition to food and cigarettes. Being the guy who hands out the cigarettes to the stressed out marines and MAS pilots, Dearil has quickly been accepted among the fleet personnel as their favorite friend. Dearil's constant buzzing between all of the ships, taking small group of people and precious cargo to where they needed to go earned him the nickname 'The Ferryman'.

But the long times away from home and the constant threat of death at the hands of the Coalition has put a strain on Dearil's family life. After a while, Dearil struggled with that reality and eventually put in for his formal release from the UEE military. The process was slow and painstaking, but he had finally gotten the stamped forms back authorizing his release after the return of the 5th fleet.

Transport Profile

The River Styx

Role
Heavy Cargo and Personnel Transport

Chassis
SHT-8 Carry-All

Description
The Carry-All is a multi-purpose heavy transport utilized by the UEE Spacy as a logistical craft. It is capable of a variety of cargo such as ship components, heavy weaponry, ground vehicles, MAS units, as well as up to a platoon of personnel. The Carry-All is capable of both spaceflight and atmospheric flight, and can also withstand the dangers of atmospheric reentry. Additionally, the Carry-All is equipped with a small warp drive to enable it to jump small distances independently. This warp drive practically allows a Carry-All to circumnavigate planets to run vital supplies to distant ships of the same battlegroup.

While Carry-Alls are traditionally used for logistics, they are large enough and armored enough to be used as combat dropships for heavy equipment into a hotzone. They feature only a very limited amount of firepower however, and thus they are required to be escorted by MAS units or fighters to avoid interception when being used in this role. Carry-Alls are large supply ships, and thus they require a rather sizeable landing zone on planet surfaces. They are not the best option for mountainous terrain or heavily forested regions. The Carry-All can hover however, which allows it to come to a stop over rough terrain in order to safely deploy MAS units from above.

Systems
Twin MG-88 Nose Turret

Mounted on the nose of the Carry-All is a twin-barreled ballistic repeater that fires fifty caliber rounds. It is adequate enough to provide suppressing fire to soft bodied targets such as infantry, ultra-light MAS units, and light vehicles. The weapon cannot however hold its own against harder targets like full on MAS units, tanks, fortifications. Additionally, the tracking on the turret is notoriously slow, which makes it ineffective for dogfighting or dealing with fast moving targets.
