Jarsus Vrax and Trask; may your service to the Emperor cleanse your souls of all sins! Welcome to the personal confidences of the Lady Falkenberg.

On that note, all the players are ready. The game begins as soon as I post the main thread in the other forum. I wish you all good luck!

Sounds like some lizards' law firm.

Sigh, sorry about the delay- just as I was hitting the "submit" button, my wireless cut out. I have since then had to run all over looking for a fucking signal; finally I am in luck. The game has begun!

Oh, and one more quick note: I have placed all the character sheets in the first post for easy access to your information; along with your Duskish nicknames and your archetypes as she who you serves sees you.

If it's okay, I'm going to spend 4 Thrones on bullets.

Certainly. You won't have time on Bevrian for shopping, though! We'll just retcon it into your possessions.

Thanks. And done. And posted in the main thread.

Nice job so far everyone; I shall update the main thrust of the plot at 2:00 pm EST. My system is pretty basic; I'll post a major response once either everyone has weighed in, or once 24 hours have passed from the last major post.

Aw, and here I thought I'd be applying some loving machine oil.

Are... Huh? Maybe it's because I just spent the last half hour chatting with my mindblowingly hot new neighbor, but my mind just went to the dirtiest places. Like, applying it to Lady Falkenberg?!?! She's over 200 years old!

Hmmm, but really well preserved.

You must mean the firearm, right?

He's a coghead, he probably cares more about her augmentics than the fleshy bits attached to them. And those are very sexy augmentics.

Have a very nice day.

It wasn't my intention to get you to think that but yes, I was thinking of the bolter.

Someone really wants that promotion to Interrogator

Well, I do believe this is where the phrase "Never volunteer for anything" comes from.

I'm not sure if I would follow the principal of give power to the first guy to ask for it, but better you then me AcNut. This is my first Dark Heresy game.

I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

For the record, Lady Falkenberg gave Lug her personal seal not because he was the first to ask for it, but because he was the only one who didn't try to shrug it off. Also, I got a kick out of it because I found it highly unexpected.

Oh, and a little shout-out: my girlfriend, who happens to be a writer, is proofing my longer posts. Give thanks to her as you would the Emperor for her efforts on behalf of our endeavour.

Go go Thirdfain's girlfriend! You rock.

And now, my period of AFK-ness begins in earnest. I might not manage tonight's post after all. Sorry 'bout that.

Have a very nice day.

Huh. You didn't miss a sentence saying the subaltern glared at me or something did you? Seems the opposite of intimidation you're trying to propose here.

Thirdfain · Post by **Thirdfain** » Sat Aug 14, 2010 11:37 am

terribly hung over. Update between 3-4 PM EST

-edit-
Sorry, more trouble- I got called in to work; writing this on my break. I won't be able to post until after 9.

I pretty much had the same thing happen to me, sorry. And when the ante alone is about `1/5th of my wealth, it's to rich for me.

Camillia will look up the provided files on their destination of Fornos, as well as whatever information about the ship is available (important personnel, previous destinations, ship history, etc)

Soontir948 · Post by **Soontir948** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 11:58 pm

So, is the briefing on paper or do I actually have to go and use the auto-library?

What does EXACTIS TERTIUS mean? I think it's a grade of tithing assigned to the world, but I'm not sure, and I'm pretty sure my character would know.

Tercius is low down the scale, but still on the developed world scale. This is, however, only my opinion from seeing how its been used in context in other usage. As per usual, the GM's word is the burning truth.
