He glances back around the rest of the room to see if there is a response. Pleased that there is not, he returns his attention to the machine.So far, so good.A frown replaces the smile as the Nano ponders a choice. He seems to have the controls available to him to shut the production down, or slow the cycle considerably. But he doesn't know what the response will be to such a step. He may only get one chance, and it may cost him dearly. Alternatively, while the ab-humans appear to paying him no heed, he could use this time to interrogate the production information and find out more about what the machine will do in the future. How long is going to keep producing? How many ab-humans will it produce? Will it produce anything else? And finally, what is the purpose behind the machine and who is the keymaster?**Wisco pauses for a moment to check on the ab-humans. If there is a period of time when one batch of ab-humans has existed out the room and down the corridor and before the next has emerged, it may give him a window of opportunity. Switching the orientation of the corridor should prevent anyone from returning, or at least slow them down, allowing him to stop the production without the risk of being interrupted, or worse.Wisco decides to continue with his investigation for the moment until such an opportunity to stop the production presents itself (if it does).[HR][/HR]OOC ** These last two questions are probably not covered by the production controls he has access too. If another roll is required I will rinse and repeat: Numenera (trained) plus 2 Effort + 1 Edge (INT). Rolled a 7. Humm, think it might be time to cross my fingers.If required to make another roll, Wisco will take a moment to Recover (first time for the day I think). Rolled a 2 + 1 Tier + 1 Tough = 4 back into INT pool making his INT Pool 11/13.[/sblock]</blockquote>
