Love paint adventures! I'm pretty sure I read all of them, but he needs to post more.

[favoritehookeronthecitadel]

Uh, I'm writing my next post, and I'm not sure where the Reaper is in realtion to the squads. Like, how far away Rea's group is from the Reaper in Rebelle's post, and whether or not they'd see the building collapse. For now, I'm just going to write that they saw a Reaper in the distance.

I was going that kind of route also, that they see it at least.  Pretty hard to miss really!

It seems our mission to kidnap Lankist from Sexyville, USA to make him update more might be back on... lol.

From my perspective, Central was far away from the fighting as there was no sense of urgency in any of the scenes there.

Unlike the other groups who appear neck deep in Huskies.

That was one of the reasons I introduced the vehicle........ And I'm totally naming that thing once we get enough people together and Wyld find's a crate of champange from somewhere. After introducing the VI in the Kestrel drivers helmet, who Gizmo cobbled together.

Digressing.

The vehicle is there to move Wyld from the camp to the action quickly. Likewise, if we map areas out where things happen far away from each other, the vehicle makes a handy scene changing tool.

The way I see things from the map, the Reaper is north, the direction the shuttle was going, and the direction Wyld was traveling away from. If they keep going south they'll eventually run over, run into meet the rest of the group.

She's still got to get to the location of the Mako that was packed with combat supplies (thermal clips, medigel's for dextro's and amino's, heavy weapons, etc), that was described as being in a no mans land. Hence, I think the Mako would be best served as being located in the South West of the map. Further away from the fighting where no one will disturb them.

Once there and the Mako and crew are secured...... or raided for goodies, cause if you open a chest you get what's inside, Wyld will have no direction to turn other than survive.

I'm working on idea's after the Mako in conjunction with the idea that Hammer team are moving towards the beam. Mostly I've got an idea of the team holed up in the Ritz (that is now the _it_).

Because after all the things they've been going through, They could use a stiff cuppa tea.

If we intend for the group to reach the beam however, I think a map to indicate the distance would be helpful as well as show where it is in relation to the groups at present.

If it's West, then that would imply that Reaper forces are chasing the group. If it's East, then with Reaper forces coming from that direction, it implies fighting through them.

The landed Reaper is north, and south seem to be a direction where anything could be.

As for the Reaper. With buildings in the way, they may see it's spire. The shockwave of it's landing blowing between buildings. Plus if they can't see it from whereever they are, they can surely hear it's blaring walrus-esque horn cry.

Okay, first, hello to the geth. Second, it is good we talk about this so we can get some consistency. Reaper landing is certainly a dramatic occurrence. I'll do my best to keep all of the things in mind about other characters, but of course, we're going to probably have to be flexible to account for the occasional difference in ideas for scenes. But I'm really liking how its going so far. And the spontaneity of figuring out how it all comes together is part of the fun for me, too. Now, off to read the new stuff...

[Redbelle]

I've already edited what I wrote from rescuing an Asari and a human to two humans.

Quick brush up on Zia's bio made the mistake evident.

Although looking through Naomi Brooks character I've yet to come across anything to suggest her species. I went with human as a baseline.

[MrStoob]

Me and Kel have been trying to co-ordinate a bit, get a sense of intentions and whatnot. I said in that, and it's queried above, that I would like to get Elaine to the conduit run. It's their current orders anyway, so it's going to be Capt Grelk's objective for his squad at least.

Apologies if I've taken the liberty with her squad expanding in development and becoming characters in their own right lol.

Edit: that said, who said they're going to make it with her?

Yea, my reckoning was that the groups that Elaine's squad was originally assigned to were to ensure no surprises from behind for Hammer, so East (AKA 'this-a-way') should be away from the conduit as Reapers backfill their losses behind them.  So, in short, chasing the group towards the conduit.  That can give breathing room for Wyld's shenanegins.

So, I figured those Ravagers above and to the left were so close, maybe those were the ones who moved off after the shuttle.  Since FavoriteH's update, things got a heavy choreograph, but I figured how they look is this way now.  Maybe Rea spotted the shuttle through the ruined building.  Also, put where I think the Reaper (and old HQ) was, generally same direction as the downed shuttle.   And the direction of the conduit...basically south.  Though Grelk didn't have a shuttle, I figured maybe he was directing the downed shuttle who's pilot is now deadsky.  OR, alternatively, there is a new shuttle on the way.  Needed clarification on that before I could do my part.

Honesly, a ride is cool, either in a shuttle or a cadillac.  Thought, personally, we might even have to walk

Hey everyone! I see I'm falling behind the rest of you...well that's becouse it's summer holidays time here, and as people go, the rest have to pull their weight.
So the problem is that my turn is coming up, monday to be exact.
I'm going to enjoy our coast for the rest of July drinking cocktails and swimming, and I don't expect I'll be posting in that period, sad to say.
Not sure how that will effect the whole thing...
And yes Naomi is human and she's an adept too.

Well, thus far, Wyld's picked off the Brute. Called back Pepper and co for an evac while the Reaper stomps around. And has asked who needs help to one of the two coming out of the shuttle.

Wyld hasn't entered yet to see the Turian.

[FuriousFelicia]

All three are human

[Kel Riever]

Furious Felicia...you won't be posting until Monday, or not for the rest of July?

Talked to Mr. Stoob, who was saying Grelk was on the ground, FYI. I don't know who the Turian is that Redbelle was referring to, though there are a lot of dead Turians on the ground.

FavoriteH has a shuttle coming in as far as I can tell. Which isn't the crashed shuttle, I believe. Anyway, I'm waiting for Khambilo to post and then I'll do my part.

Oh.

The commander sounded Turian....... not sure how he sounded Turian, but he did.

Makes him surviving harder. Being flat lined with no vitals I can explain away with the metal Turian shell to ward off Palaven's radiation......

Not sure how the tough old goats gonna get out of this one.

[favoritehookeronthecitadel]

I'm going on a date and having some friends over, and after that I'll post. I'm also going to make some edits to clear things up, since there's some confusion and I was a little confused myself.

Well, I can bundle them into the Caddy and get them out of dodge. After that, we'll have to discuss what to do with them as having no one to handle their characters may be difficult to keep them in the game.

That said, I was planning on dropping the techs off anyway at a point in the future. Although, Zia's mysterious connection to a certain T'loak may be something I can build on. I already alluded to a fight in the Citadel at Purgatory. It was with an Asari. Nuff said.

In fact, I may have to start getting into flashback territory to explain some of these things. And how they are being brought to bear on what happening to her now.

[Redbelle]

Ok. So I at least know what I am talking about. There are two shuttle in play.

One is Zia's, and Wyld just killed a Brute to rescue them

The other, is Captain Grelks who landed behind a shopping mall and is waiting for people before he is forced to leave.

I might tackle getting Zia's group up and out tomorrow so I can put the Reaper/Central aspect of the story to the background of what is happening.

Capt Grelk is Elaine's squad leader.  The shuttle part was a bit of confusion, he's down the road away moving up to Elaine/Rea's position with Reynolds (human solider #2, possibly in a red uniform so if anyone feels like random acts of violence towards the squad, he's your man... hehe).

Typing now. Next part in an hour to hour and a half...

[FuriousFelicia]

Naomi, and the commander were supposed to be just side chars..something I intended to drop eventually (first idea was to make Zia the sole survivor of the chrash) so in the end she meets Wyld, and the story continues.
I think it's best if we dich the commander, which btw is the reason for no name as I didn't intend to keep him anyway Naomi was also an unintentional development...she can go hold a barrier somewhere
It would be difficult to write for someone else's character thoug, especially the dialogues, and their behavior.

@Kel
Not sure really...kind of brain frozen atm..haven't even had time to play from wednesday or get to my PC. That's why I still didn't confirm your FR...been using mobile

If it's ok, I'm going to write Wyld and Zia out of the shuttle and getting onto other things.

[Redbelle]

Wyld and Zia are out of the shuttle.

Zia nearly killed Naomi to get a shot at killing the Brute. (Naomi doesn't know this).

Naomi might have fallen a little in love with Zia, largely thanks to their near death experience.

Zia's bitten some fight into Naomi.

Plus

On the ride away from the Reaper, they encountered the spot where the big fight went down where they left Niria.

And Gizmo has halted everyone so he could man up and answer, 'The Call of Nature'!

So they are still a little ways behind the rest of the group, but making progress catching up.

And we may find out what happened to Niria.
