SfU: I'll be moving things on to meeting the Internal in the evening - 10pm Irish time or so. If the PCs can resist murdering each other just a little while longer we might even make it into the building soon.

[BetaB17]

SfU: I am calm

[Aarah]

SfU: Is there a significance to being calm in the rp? I've noticed a few folk saying it in here.

[BetaB17]

. If the PCs can resist murdering each other just a little while longer

I AM CALM

(No, there isn't. It's a one off line I used, then Dov copied it, and now we're here)

[The SheoDovah]

SFU: I did not copy you, Beta. Don't make me enact great harm upon those cakes!

And rather than display any aggression, muted or not, she gave a cold sigh and holstered her gun "I am calm"

He stumbled backwards and pointed the sawnoff at the ninja. "I am calm."

[The SheoDovah]

SFU: We both think alike.

SFU: Stare all you want, Beta. We all know who to thank god for.

GWN: Whoops. Didn't consider that as a possibility and thought suppressing fire would be a viable, good, tatic. At least Kerr isn't Xcom otherwise, Lester would have paniced, run forward or the one shot that hits is an instant kill.

GWN:

"I give up! I give up!" the raider shouted

I smell a rat!

[The SheoDovah]

GWN: Aarah, do you really think Kerr would lead us into believing that it is safe then spring a, she's springing a trap on us isn't she? I see your plans, Kerr! Can't fool me! Ok, you can but i'll think of ways to subvert your plans!

[Kerr]

Greybox: It's up! Hopefully the OP is okay, if anything looks wrong let me know, I hope I didn't leave in typos or mistakes. I probably did. It's really big but you're meant to treat it like an enclyopedia for the setting, not something I expect you to consume right now. But it should be a useful reference. Also I might need to adjust the Character Sheets. But yeah, no point keeping it from yous, the earlier it's up the more time you have to read and plan characters. We'll probably start in late August, we'll see what suits me and players. It'll definitely be after Fallout ends.

And before anyone asks, yes, that person mentioned at the top of MJ Belt Settlements and again under Entertainment & Socialites is exactly who you think he is.

The hype is real!

Greybox: Greybox!

How long did it take you to type all that out, Kerr?

[Kerr]

How long did it take you to type all that out, Kerr?

I don't want to know. I wrote it in bits and pieces over the course of last month, couple of hours here and there. So it wasn't too bad. Hopefully the size isn't too imposing and scares people off.

[BetaB17]

First off... And keep in mind I've skimmed through and am just now reading thru.. But Kerr, m8.. Where are my aliens?! D: (Sorry, I just HAD to) 2nd.. And really, forgive me here... But Geothermal Power? Mars? I thought Mar's core died off long ago.. I mean, I could see venus or any of the other geothermally active planets/moons being valid sources and... I'll.. I'll shut up now...

[Kerr]

I'm honestly so glad I cut all the aliens stuff out.

But Geothermal Power? Mars? I thought Mar's core died off long ago.. I mean, I could see venus or any of the other geothermally active planets/moons being valid sources and... I'll.. I'll shut up now...

That sentence shouldn't have survived the editing, thanks for bringing it to my attention. It implies geothermal power is dominant on Mars rather than really supplementary and localized compared to solar and fusion, which yeah, don't know how I kept that in. Eh Mars is complicated, from a geothermal perspective it's a lot less active than Earth but it's not completely dead. We honestly don't know how viable geothermal is or isn't quite yet. If you don't know geothermal power involves pumping water underground, having that water be heated by the earth and then the water coming back to the surface where it turns turbines. It's really big in Iceland because of volcanic activity. So I'm working off the idea that there's still some geothermal activity under the surface in areas home to lot of volcanoes and in those regions of Mars (like Olympus Mons) it sees use. Maybe that's a stretch on my part although to be fair, so is the idea that we'll be terraforming Mars by the 2080s and be using Fusion Power.

[Baloth-Kul]

Greybox: Excuse you, MARS is PLENTY hot enough to generate geotherm--Oh, the planet, right.

I'll get to posting a character sheet soonish!

[BetaB17]

^I mean.. Even with lower thermal activity, it's feasible if people intend to colonize beneath the surface or have a massive mining complex... Your already in deep, why not go the full mile (Plus all that water vapor will help speed up biological growth. I.e so much green, bruh! (I'm getting Venus flashbacks from Destiny!!)

Oh dear.. Mesh..

treating it like a joke, but most people fill out actual info

Status: Dead Inside.

Will that count as a joke or truth?

[Rook]

Greybox:

transhumans on Mars continue to live largely in Romdeau, a domed region roughly the size of India with a flourishing ecosystem

Is that an Ergo Proxy reference, my dude?

[BetaB17]

GB: Just when you think you've read enough.. It.. Just... Never... Ends... <3......

[Kerr]

Black Legion:
I never should have said I wanted to swap characters with Beta. What have I done?

Greybox:

Is that an Ergo Proxy reference, my dude?

Yes, I'm sorry.

When I say I don't want people to read this all now I mean it, don't, it would be really boring. You'll make me regret not putting it up in bits and pieces or seriously cutting down the OP to something more digestible and churning out more setting info later. Skim it, read it in bits and pieces, if you're interested you have ages, there's really no rush.

[The SheoDovah]

BL: Once you go Beta, you never go back. Because he is known to hoarde characters.

Greybox: Erh... i'll read it at some point. Maybe. Mars is gonna to threaten me into doing it ain't she?
