    The Mourning After (Horror) (IC)

    Xian Xian keeps an eye on the creature, hoping it ignores the prisoners. He focuses on the nearest guard and utters a single word. "Flee!" Xian then cautiously heads towards the exit. Ooc: Casting 1st level spell Command, verbal only. Wisdom save DC 13.

    Star Trek Strange New Worlds, what did you think?

    Overall my wife and I enjoyed the episode. Our biggest gripe is with Spock and T'Pring. It felt wrong. Too emotional for Vulcans. We haven't watched Discovery so maybe they are like that in that timeline? We had other minor quibbles but we can cope with Uhura and Chapel being on the ship.

    The Mourning After (Horror) (IC)

    Xian Xian managed to dodge out of the way of the falling tower, only getting slightly injured in the process. He watched in astonishment as a hulking monstrosity lumbered out of the wreckage. What has House Vadalis been up to? He made a mental note to report this if he survived. Xian pointed...

    The Mourning After (Horror) (IC)

    "So, we don't have any weapons and the plan is to just attack the guards with our hands? How barbaric. Although if that is our only option, I shall do my best, however ineffective that may be." Xian whispers back.

    What was the first music album you bought?

    I don't remember what the first record was that I bought with my own money. My mom belonged to a record club in the 70's and she would let my brothers and I get 1 album whenever she ordered. The 1st one I owned was probably either Three Dog Night or the 2001 Space Odyssey soundtrack. Later in...

    The Mourning After (Horror) (IC)

    Xian briefly considers his options, however limited they were. He needed more information. They might be able to escape from here but with no knowledge of where 'here' was or who, or what, was outside, it was best he followed along for now. Perhaps wherever they were being led to would contain...

    The Mourning After (Horror) (IC)

    "A living weapon?" Xian said in disbelief. "House Vadalis can mage breed some amazing animals but turning people into living weapons? Sound rather farfetched to me. I am a mere entertainer, hardly a fighter. Even if they somehow used magic to make me permanently stronger with more stamina, I...

    The Mourning After (Horror) (IC)

    "If it wouldn't be too much of a bother, can someone please tell us where we are and why? We were strolling down a hallway when some sort of mist overcame us. Is this some sort of barbaric gladiatorial games we have been volunteered for?" Xian asked the crowd.

    The Mourning After (Horror) (IC)

    Xian Xian slowly opens his eyes and sits up. His head aches but different than when he consumed too much beer or ale. He does not recognize his surroundings. Someone or something rendered them unconscious and brought them here, wherever that is. He hears two of his travel mates voices. Xian...

    The Mourning After (Horror) (IC)

    Xian stands ready, eyes and ears alert for trouble. "What monstrosity was behind that door? Was it a Vadalis experiment or something else? I don't like this. We were set up. If we live long enough I intend to find out who was responsible and why. Then they shall dealt with" Perception...

    Picard season 2 (spoilers maybe unmarked)

    I agree this season is a mess. I just got caught up on the last 2 episodes and was astonished at how much I found wrong with them. Guinan should not be on Earth. Wasn't she rescued by the Enterprise B in Generations? How can the Borg queen imitate voices well enough to fool the computer? Just...

    The Mourning After (Horror) (IC)

    Xian looks at their surroundings. All the hallways look the same. "I don't suppose anyone is handy at locating hidden doors? This may not be a trap although we must be prepared and cautious." Xian draws his rapier and moves to cover his companions in case anyone or anything comes from behind...

    Picard season 2 (spoilers maybe unmarked)

    I enjoyed the 1st season more than this season. I don't mind time travel stories if they are done well. This one is not. It reminds me of the Voyager episode when the crew were in the past. One moment Janeway couldn't type on a keyboard and the next she was typing like a pro. The crew should not...

    Recruitment/OOC for Star Trek + Savage Worlds game.

    Are you still looking for players? I have been a trek fan since watching the original series in the 60's as a kid. Lately I've been watching Picard and Lower Decks on Paramount+. I have Savage Worlds (a couple of versions) and played the FASA edition in the 80's and 90's.
