Pluto VII [OOC]

I think that would be just great, because a threesome (no pun intended) is easier for the situation our characters are just in.
Really, if you play one or more of the crooks, we do not know in advance what they will do.
 
How the scene will continue now will entirely depend on Fiona, and her reaction.
 
Talon, if you are willing to play the thugs (including their leader) please PM me.

There is some background information about them that has not yet surfaced in the thread but is required to play them correctly.
 
So I've moved Seth into position to perhaps meet up with the ladies. Maybe he can join with Michaela should she decide to pursue Fiona, or alternatively I can just continue the story with the thugs and I'll play both the leader and the thugs appropriately. I'll follow your lead on whether to proceed with Seth or not from your next post Cherubian. I'm also perfectly content to continue playing the 'bad guys' for the time being should it go in that direction.
 
Now we have this pretty little OOC thread here and the OOC communication still happens IC...

*overly theatrical sigh*

:)
 
I'll take the blame for that one. I got a bit excited by the action. :D
 
Well, hello there, ladies and gentleman!

I'm here, assuming command of the role of The Boss. Here goes my character assignment. Since I've had not found where he is introduced, I guess I should reinvent his looks as well:

Name: Drake "The Boss" Hercledis
Gender: Male
Age: 34
Appearance:
Drake is quite a figure. Not as tall as his personal Enforcer Jack, he is taller than most of the 'dwarves' that live on the Station - or so he likes to refeer to most people every now and then. Broad-shoulders, Drake is naturally strong, but it had been many, many years since he had really got into a wrestling fray. He is capable of bashing some skulls, but that's more from his sheer muscle and strenght than any skill. Bald, naturally.
The long years into comanding his small kingdom has also grown a belly into "The Boss". Not too large, although it does shown, he likes to pose next to a small Buda figurine in order to amuse his guests. As hung as a man of his size should be.

History:
Known as 'The Boss' for most, and only rarely speaking out his true name - mostly when he refeers to himself into the third person - 'The Boss' was born within the structure of a Earthen Slums into South America. Growing up into such a violent place, he grew up to become the chieftain of several small pocket of narcotraffic, due to both his willingness to take risks coupled with a good amount of planning. Of course, he was no mastermind, but a luckly chain of events ended up benefiting him the most.
However, one emerging that fast and earning some renown had also being chased by other criminal lords and, mainly, by the authorities. Three years ago, his coven was breaken into a combined force of order enforcers, guided by his rivals gun-totters. In the very end, he managed to flee and witness the destruction of his well-wrought Empire from a probe's window as his building was downed by heavy military weaponry.
In the few years since he reached the confines of the Universe, The Boss was quick to bend the few smugglers and criminals too loosened and poorly organized into a capable, loyal and obedient net of contacts, from the upper places on the orb down to the very sewer rats.

Modifications:
His girth means he can pack quite a punch. Too slow to hit square and without any techniques, he is a strong buffon - but also a tough one at that. He had a secondary dermis implanted under most of his skin, capable of deflecting most of the poor trafficant's outdated and worn weaponry.

Attributes:
Abstraction 2
Body 3
Combat 2
Coordination 1
Electronics 1
Leadership 5
Mechanics 1
Perception 3
Persuasion 3
Willpower 3
 
Soooo....I was reading over last night's posts and was suddenly struck by the idea that you're waiting for me to jump in as Jack. Not that I mind, I'd be happy to, just want to make sure we're on the same page.
 
I'm here, assuming command of the role of The Boss. Here goes my character assignment. Since I've had not found where he is introduced, I guess I should reinvent his looks as well:
He was introduced in post 104. Considering you both worked from a blank slate your description is surprisingly close to Talon's.
 
Next week I wont have much time, so I am not sure if I can post much. So you can spent some time fighting with the bosses guards, etc. (The bodyguard screws around while her poor boss is fucked. tsk, tsk.)
If I cannot post in that time, feel free to assume that Fiona has passed out temporarily.
 
(The bodyguard screws around while her poor boss is fucked. tsk, tsk.)
So they are both basically doing the same thing, right? :)

And after all, Michaela is just following orders, sort of.

What worries me a little more is the activity (or lack thereof) of LordLuck during the last week. Did the two of you intentionally pause Fiona's treatment to give Seth and Michaela time to catch up, or is there another reason for that strand to stagnate?
 
I just finally got word from LordLuck, and the gist is that we better plan without him for the future.

So how do we proceed? My original intention was to blackmail him into helping the others after the rescue - not even he would be able to weasel out of this when we have strong evidence that he has kidnapped a high ranking embassy employee. This would have given the group very good connections to the stations underworld.

But that would require someone to continue writing for him.

Either way, it is time to look for a new writer ... again. :)
 
As previously mentioned, I am willing to play any NPC parts that are needed, and would be happy to resume the role of The Boss.

I think the Blackmail option sounds great personally, and as you have mentioned, leaves open some handy connections with the criminal element of the Station that could come in handy down the line.

So, ready and willing, just give the word.
 
I am really glad to hear that. So if Belinda does not object within the next 24 hours - starting NOW - I would say go ahead.
 
I have no objections, but not so much time the next three days, but I will drop in if possible. As mentioned, if you get stuck due to my absence, just assume that Fiona has passed out for some moments or is to shaken to act, etc.
 
Cherubian, it would appear that your PM box is full. Hopefully you'll see this old thread pop up in the list, wasn't sure where else to post this. :)
 
To bad this thread has died off.

I agree.

That said, I wouldn't mind reviving it at some point in the future when all participants are available to take on another thread, should everyone be interested in doing so.
