I apologize for not being able to post recently; I have caught the cold/flu. I will come back with a post once I am feeling better. For now I would like to ask that the TCTF Science Prison raid be postponed until I come back. Thank you.

I was visiting family elsewhere so I wasn't able to come on and post. I'll write a brief post now to synch my time up with everyone elses. We should wait until everyone is on track in the same time, and maybe even do some sort of summary of the story, and what each character's goal/current situation is at that point, so everyone is clear. Things are starting to get a bit tangled
Hehehe, nice spin Kyl. I hadn't thought my stabbing a TCTF officer would have that additional effect, very perceptive of you.
Also, I'd urge people to keep in mind that this IS happening over a very small period of time. So some things to keep in mind are hypos for instance. You can only have so many before you OD on them, and I know that with all this writing it seems like it's spaced out, but really, it isn't that much. I'd say starting at midnight of the next night, we should implement a limit on hypos you can use in one day, and every hypo after that should cost 1 AP point. For instance, limit of 6 hypos per day, and any hypos you use after that take 1 AP each for physical toll. Also, just stuff like physical activity, for instance my guy as walked across half the city, woke up relatively early and had one very small and uncomfortable nap. While you should need to post your physical condition at the top of your post, you should always keep it in mind when fighting and travelling and such.

Jan DID OD on Hypos today, just so you know.

Yes, I do remember you saying something about that I forgot to mention that. I'm just making sure everyone knows that, and suggesting a system to keep that in check.

I like that idea. I think a limit of 7 hypos a day, and then the OD does -1AP each is good number-wise.
And yeah, I'll try to summarize what's happened in the gap.
To Striker: I'd like to run the Science Prison bit, actually. I'd like to step back into the GMing role.

Okie-Dokie. I'll get on that... Right after I take over the world.

So should we all refrain from posting until The Creature is done?
I dunno
But Jin needs to finish that smoke before he suffocates from oxygen deprivation.

I don't think so, but it would be nice to have a summary in the near future just to keep things straight. Also, for any new members that want to join, so they don't have to browse through 5+ pages of posts just to get caught up. 3 was bad enough

I don't know, the 5+ pages that have to be read through serve as a great idiot deterrent.

True enough. But we don't have that many ppl to begin with, and beggars can't be choosers

Just a couple clarifications on the summary, my character's goal isn't necessarily to kill Jan, but retrieve the information he's carrying. Obviously, it's implied that he will most likely not give it up willingly, and I will take it from his cold, dead corpse, but that's not my ultimate goal :3
Also, what do you mean when you say Micah is my "Private name" ?
"He looks mean enough to tear my arm off and beat me to death with it. In fact, he looks mean enough to tear his OWN arm off and beat me to death with it."

Edited. And I fixed the private name thing.
So then, everything's set up: Let's do this thing.
For Certified: As GMing will be my main concern during the Science Prison raid, I won't be able to play my character. Please feel free to RP for Malcolm. Just remember to have him swear in Mandarin Chinese occasionally.

To TheCreature:I have fixed some incorrect parts and added a bit more detail (links to characters for new players) to the story so far. Please edit and insert this into the appropriate post.
A midnight syndicate raid on a medical supply warehouse went bad, leaving all the syndicate troopers dead or captured except for one striker named Jeff, who managed to escape. Jeff then went inside the now abandoned Musashi Manufacturing Concern, hiding out until he could be rescued by his fellow Syndicate supporters. He was then taken back to their hidden base (the Syndicate headquarters), where he was debriefed and told to rest before being sent out on another mission.
Meanwhile, Jin, a young TCTF investigator, Jan, a mercenary sniper (former TCTF officer), and a TCTF Black Ops agent named Vince (who encountered and had his knee broken Jeff as Jeff was fleeing the warehouse) were called in for a meeting with the TCTF's commander (Mai Hasegawa). Once there, they were informed of a series of highly dangerous secret experiments performed by the Syndicate leaders, and are sent to investigate as a team. They found strong leads, but were opposed by the Syndicate forces at every turn. Soon separated, Jin and Vince were called back to TCTF headquarters to be reassigned. Jan (wounded and carrying vital stolen data), however, got stranded in Syndicate territory, where he faced Lucifer, the leader of the Syndicate brute forces. Desperate, Jan sought out the help of Malcolm, a Chrysalis Dealer. In exchange for providing high-quality chrysalis, Jan was implanted with a chrysalis, which saved his life, and allowed him to gain superhuman powers. He has also called together his old gang, preparing for a raid on the TCTF Science Prison, to rescue his lover and fellow Daodan host.
However, there is also an assassin on his trail, determined to steal the secret information from Jan. The assassin, who goes by the name of Micah, has obtained the plans for Jan's attack on the Science Prison, and lies in wait for the raid, so he can intercept Jan. The Syndicate are also planning to gain entrance to the facility, but for an unrelated reason.

"Whoa-Whoa, whoa, your crazy man! Biomatter acid is a wall of death! We'll never make it through!"
"Most of the time you are right, but every so often they need to flush the whole damn thing out due to the acid weakening and then replace it. Midnight today is that time. It's simple, we camp out in the sewers an hour before, and after they get flushed we walk in casually through the now-open backdoor and climb our way up to the normal catwalks. From there we either gun down security or sneak our way in. I prefer the latter."
That being said, why is the acid being drained at 7:00 PM? I thought Micah would have more time to sleep

IT'S NOT MY FAULT!!! I think...
Jan said that the two figures started cleaning the vats, in reaction to me posting about mist. I was just posting that there was purple mist rising as the temp cools.

Question: I know how our characters aren't supposed to have any secret powers or anything, but would the effects of Chrysalis be included in this? I've written a post explaining a unique and rather destructive effect the chrysalis takes on Jin, but i wanted to make sure it was ok before i post. It won't affect his actual abilities, but instead will give him a 'double personality', his Chrysalis induced personality being much different in both his moral standing and in his actions.

Wait, since when did Jin have Chrysalis?

Yeah, whatever, just post it, if somethings wrong with it then Striker will ask you to retcon sometime later.

Chrysalis cannot change the symbiote's personality, even the Imago stage is the person's true nature. Personality disorders cannot be caused by the chrysalis itself.
You must mention that Jin has chrysalis in the character creation thread (edit your post and add that in there).

PTSD can though

Yes, but the way kyletm57 mentioned it, he meant that the chrysalis itself has changed his character's personality.
