Unity or Civil War?

omg this thread needs more pyro

 

[BLADE]

I've said this before, but Mandos need to settle this with a dance-off.

We need a Mando-burner to replace Ru, our furry-burner.

 

[Raif]

Yeah, didn't Ru have a character whose only purpose was to set shit on fire? That could definitely make for a welcome addition to all this mayhem.

On a serious note, now that Corden/Lucius are about to have their Zoolander-esque Walk Off, can we take a moment to sum up the situation? As far as I can tell (and I am admittedly ignoring some people's posts because of their complete ridiculous refusal to acknowledge what was actually going on around them in the thread) EVERYONE minus one or two exceptions (Xeno, for one) should still be contained inside the original chamber, yes?

While we're at it we should probably come to a consensus on who is contained with whom. I'm assuming Mars and I are together in one field, but past that I'm a bit fuzzy on the whereabouts of everyone else.

 

[Orphen]

Well let it be said That alarann, other than the one whose head rolled. Is right and royally ****'d UP! Just you wait until he gets his next suit of armour! Though that being said, i'm with whatever clan is currently carrying me. Be it with the Fetts or otherwise.

 

[Mars]

To be fair, Nite, if those missiles hit you or you were in the blast radius, you should be dead.

 

[Orphen]

To be fair, i'm wearing full body bes'kar alloy clad armour, which is made and fashoned to support him from shock and impact damage. The plates of the armour are linked in a way that balance the pressure over the entire surface of the armour. The armour is power armour giving it the ability to lock in place. The deonations went off above him as he fell, having them literally explode on each other, but most of the force would have gone up because of the floor. And he had a mandalorian iron kite shield. Not beskar alloy. Mandalorian iron, which is meant to be almost indestructible. Shield pearched above him with lightning quick survival reflexes, in which even so... MOST of his armour was shredded, his legs are mutilated, the arm not holding the shield is vaporised and he has a full concussion, possible, and probably skull fracures as well as the inumerable fractures in his arm which braced the shield.

He captain america'd i think i took well enough damage. He made his armor save. I thought i was fair. He may not even survive treatment, and they were only micro missiles. "I" thought i was fair :( Why do you want me to die?

This is a brief summary of key events so far and a reminder to everyone participating...

Just as the talks became heated, an unidentified Mandalorian engaged his jetpack in the midst of the gathering, firing a number of projectile rounds into the crowd in an area around Titus. Mid-flight, the jetpack malfunctioned. It wouldn't be clear whether Titus was the intended target of the attack since a number of non-player characters were also hit. Apollo's aide-de-camp, Jon Viggo, shouts "GUN!" and slams Apollo to the ground, shielding him from possible harm. Immediatly following this, Apollo Ordo gives an order to his clan over an encrypted channel as he fires a number of micro-rockets with thermal detonator warheads at an unknown target. He and his clan begin engaging Loyalists at will. Loyalists fire back, turning the densely crowded chamber into a battlefield. An alarm sounds and out of thin air, containment fields divide the chamber and its occupants. The crossing fields form cubes, separating warriors from one another. Some people are trapped alone, others in small groups. Some are trapped with enemies, others with allies.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY:

From an observer point of view, no one but the members of Aliit Ordo know that Apollo ordered them to attack. Also note that no one would know that it was Saren that fired the first shot that set everything in motion. As far as our characters are aware, it could have been someone from either side. That means that no one should be posting "Clan Ordo started a massacre!" or "Saren fired the first shot!" or anything of that nature. Sure, your characters can point fingers and say the warrior with the jetpack who fired the first shot was someone from the other side... that's only natural to accuse your opposition of treachery, but the fact remains, it isn't certain who is actually behind it all. Please remember to keep OOC information separate from IC information. Remember that this chamber is PACKED. Everyone is at least within arm's reach. There's no way to know who is being targeted. It's utter chaos. Warriors on both sides are getting shot by their own side. No one really has a grasp on what happened. They just know that SOMEONE shot into the crowd and that Clan Ordo went into a frenzy immediatly after their leader's aide knocked him to the ground... anyone with sense who witnessed that would think, "Hm, Clan Ordo couldn't have started this if Apollo's second is reacting like it is an assassination attempt." A keen mind would probably deduce that the mysterious warrior with the jetpack was some kind of assassin or perhaps even someone acting on their own and not in collusion with either the Seps or the Loyalists.

Think about it. How would your character see this event unfolding? He or she might jump to conclusions, sure, but be realistic and think about their position in the crowd and the environment. There's no way anyone can know, beyond any doubt, which side the warrior with the jetpack belongs to or who he was attacking, especially since everyone is so close to one another. Was it a Loyalist attacking a Sep? Was it a Sep attacking a Loyalist? Was it an assassin or bounty hunter acting the part of a Mandalorian to take out his or her mark? Was it someone trying to sabotage our efforts at peace? Those questions should be going through our characters' minds. Nothing is certain at this point.

And as a point on that, as the room is pact, Alarann may have had other people soak some of the blast for him, who would also be beskar alloy armoured Mandos... Thanks Corden ^^

Mandos = the best hit-shields!

Also, sreeya had no issue with the survival :/

Yes, that makes sense, but keep in mind that the rockets could have easily flown just above the crowd, not through it. No matter how many bodies are close by and what type of armor they are encased in, a thermal detonator is designed to cause a small fusion reaction upon detonation. That reaction results in an expanding particle field which in turn atomizes almost any material that does not conduct heat or thermal energy within the blast radius. That's what Wookieepedia says, anyway.

 

[Raif]

/high five Corden

That was a very well put together and unbiased summary. Good job.

 

[Orphen]

Don't worry i got you. I thought i took the correct amount of extensive damage from the attack. And it was extensive damage. But the word 'almost indestructible' comes to mind again. I'll probably have the shield fall to pieces too if that helps make up for it. Yes, i'm coming from a perspective of him not wanting to die. But alarann is built as a juggernaut of defense. I would almost hesitate that any light weaponry could oust him in a single blow. Especially if it hit his defenses head on. If it were the one missile. I probably wouldn't even have broken his armour. Doubling the damage... His life hangs in the balance. If he gets medical attention quickly. He may survive. I may have to roll a dice on it. 4+ feel no pain roll.

(fun fact on this, i rolled a 6 on an invulnerable save for the shield ^.- to help me come to a conclusion on the damage. When in doubt, roll a dice!)

Please read this guys, lol.

 

[Apollyon]

Example: A'den my character is just trying to ensure his clans safe exit and will open fire on anyone who threatens him, his clan, or anyone he deems as a close friend. Every man is on his own currently...because of the pure chaos

 

[Django]

Who exactly would Titus be in a chamber with, if anyone? I'd like to work it out for my post I'm remaking. :) I'll make Titus' survival make sense, I promise. :333

Edit: Very nice summary Corden.

 

[Apollyon]

Well Fetts are with Erie...so I have to figure out how we are coming to a truce after a brief fire fight

 

[Django]

Hmm, I suppose Titus would be able to get close to Eire before the little chambers came. If no one has objections to that I'll go ahead and do that. I mean, if a Sep wants to beat up Titus some I'm fine with that. As long as you promise not to kill him. ^^

Edit: James, maybe A'den and Titus meet up again here? That would be interesting. And A'den would be close to Eire, no? Maybe they are in the same chamber. If that works for you.

 

[Apollyon]

Actually of A'den could use Titus as a bargining chip that would be useful! I mean if your okay with that?

 

[Django]

As a bargining chip? Haha. What do you mean exactly? I'm interested...
