OOC: Fanatic, for future reference, try not to imply anything about another player's character's actions or mannerisms. Just FYI.

Nathan stares at his little flip-book notepad where he's written down some notes.
Appearance: white hair, black skin (real black, not brown), red eyes, pointed ears.
Equipment: Appears archaic; one-hand crossbows, hide and metal armor. However, they have understanding of gate technology, and some way of neutralizing electricity around them.
Misc: They use poison, derived from fungus. There were glowing mushrooms visible through the gate briefly when they came through. Maybe...
He frowned. Why did something about this seem kind of...familiar?
"No...the tour sounds good. I really want to get a look at that gate device."

Staunton glares at Blaise, "This is an Air Force Base, son. Just about everyone here is a 'fly boy.' Get used to it."
Harvey answers Max, "Medical is working on cooking up an antidote. They said they should have something for use by the time we fire up the crystal again."
General Staunton and Harvey Storm guide the group through the facility. Lots of new faces and new names: the technical crew in the operating center, the medical staff in the sick bay area, small bunking areas for military and staff members staying overnight, and finally, the portal room.
Unlike the still images seen during the slide show, the portal room has been reconfigured slightly. The rectangular metal "door" in front of the crystal has been removed and the crystal itself moved to the center of the room. Surrounding the crystal are a dozen stations where a traveler stands, placing the arm holding the crystal-timer into a circular hole that allows brief physical contact with the larger crystal.
Harvey explains, "We removed the gateway so that nothing could come through. After we program a destination point in the control room, a traveling team simply stands at one of these areas and simply touches the crystal. We can send remote probes and other hardware through as well, up to about ten feet wide or so. There's still a possibility of a hostile coming through if they take your timer and use it themselves, but that can't be helped. So, don't let anyone take your timer."
Staunton says, "We've planned a departure for two days from now. In the meantime, each of you needs a complete physical, Mr. Lang needs to talk to R&D and Blaise needs to see me in private. Any other questions?"
