for humans or vulcans, maybe - keep in mind the carrier was built by the caitians, and they may favor more aggressive names, as would tellarite or andorian captains who can potentially submit rename requests to starfleet command
-
alex: that's not a viable option - the vampire could just sneak aboard one of the evacuating shuttles or escape pods
-
(*slaps nick with a giant tuna*)
-
(*squirts tala*)
-
alex: you're welcome...i mean, i could hop over with some prowlers, but i don't expect to actually find anything - what do you think about this? *he then turns to dundee as he asks the question*
-
alex: unless those EV suits of yours come with infared sensors - which they should - so that anyone over there sweeping can find a hidden vampire, yes...and unless they're actively attacking someone or trying to sabotage the ship, for which it would need to make itself visible to do so, i wouldn't be provoking it anyway…
-
alex: i can't handle it either - not without help
-
barriers mean nothing to someone who can hide in the shadows - because vampires can also use them for travel; you would need to turn up the lighting enough to eliminate every shadow on the ship...and that would make EVERYONE uncomfortable, especially me
-
(why? it's inferior to the first vanguard carrier) alex: i don't know what you expect me to do about it - trying to find one vampire on a ship that size with one person when he can just stay one step ahead of whoever's hunting for him is like trying to find a specific grain of sand on a beach when the grain can cloak and…
-
alex: something can try to blend into shadows all it wants - it's still throwing off heat that infared can pick up...even vampires do generate SOME heat
-
alex: oh, for the love of...hold off on further questions while i deal with this *he opens the channel* whatever we forgot, we're not going back for it
-
well, if you know there's a high chance of a torpedo spread coming closely behind a shield drain, the obvious counter would be to activate brace for impact (and polarize hull if you have it) as soon as you start losing shields, because that will significantly blunt any incoming kinetic or torpedo damage (the latter was…
-
alex: well, lunari prime is an earth-like continental world - it would be considered a class M planet under the federation classification system, like earth is - located within the goldilocks zone of a class K5 star - significantly cooler than sol and more of an orange tint compared to sol's yellowish-white, and which…
-
(i DID say something)
-
(well congratulations; you have the gift of excellent recall of minor details - i am not so blessed...i even forgot rakesh's fur color or that matt had a pet frog until i read back through this entire thread last year - and then i wrote it down so i wouldn't forget again) alex: actually, i think i do know someone like…
-
(you do when i forget minor details within a few days unless they're routinely brought up - why do you think i keep mentioning the color of my wolves' fur and eyes and the fact alex has claw marks over his left eye? because i'm not unique in having memory retention that bad - a lot of people do)
-
(like i'm supposed to remember he has scars when you never bring them up? and the only oil rig i remember is the one we found on prehistoric earth, and matt was there for that, not alex)
-
alex: well, not anyone familiar to me since i've met hundreds of millions of people with black hair and blue eyes
-
(so did anyone actually go through the mission yet? though, i don't know why you'd need to - when you're just farming dialogue, a youtube walkthrough works just fine...provided you can find one where the person playing doesn't just F-spam through all the dialogue)
-
alex: waitaminute...did this guy ever give his name?
-
alex: could've been another werewolf or werebear or something like that - did you happen to notice if the shotgun wound scarred over after it healed? if it didn't, that's a good indication...and that those clawmarks were caused by another one, since wounds made by werecreatures don't ever heal even on other werecreatures…
-
alex: non-interference policy - mages used to live openly among mundanes, but that changed several centuries ago for reasons i'm sure you can think of - christianity being one of the big ones the only mundanes who were actually made aware of our existence after we went underground were the heads of various governments, to…
-
alex: trying to explain the history of magic would require significantly more time than we have - but i can at least say that basically every mythical creature you've ever heard of isn't quite so mythical - and we also have many you would never have heard of - including dragons, vampires, unicorns, chimaera, kelpies,…
-
alex: well...magic IS real - at least as far as there are certain beings who can manipulate the energies inherent to the universe to accomplish a variety of effects - as for that movie, i don't think that was real...mainly because if it were, an entire underground ecosystem of that magnitude would be common knowledge by…
-
(vampires can also shadow, turn into mist, a wolf or a swarm of bats depending on the specific type - and don't leave your neck exposed! or any part of your body with a major artery running through it for that matter)
-
*alex waits for Dundee.exe to reboot*
-
alex: that was my reaction when i first learned about the goa'uld - the aforementioned parasite species - too - which was actually secondary to my reaction at finding out humanity...or at least the USAF, had means of traveling to other worlds across the galaxy in seconds about 70 years before the invention of warp…
-
alex: earth-shattering in what way? like, 'finding out most of earth's gods and demons were a parasitic alien species who used humans as both hosts for themselves and as worshippers because they were ego-maniacal, megalomaniac a.ssholes' earth-shattering? or that the same species that originally built atlantis were also…
-
alex: so, since this is going to take several hours...if you have questions, now is the time

life finds a way, matey
