Starlord stood over a tactical display as he waited for the team to assemble after their mission.

by **Daniel Uriel** » Wed Aug 01, 2012 10:48 pm

Daniel was looking very disgruntled as he came into the briefing room, muttering something likely unpleasant under his breath.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Wed Aug 01, 2012 11:03 pm

"I got the information that you wanted." Rachel said, still sounding a bit shaken.

by **Bobby Bowen** » Thu Aug 02, 2012 9:33 pm

Bobby stood off to the side, looking off into space. literally.

by **Kevin Gravis** » Thu Aug 02, 2012 9:34 pm

Kevin took a seat anxiously.

by **Calvin Strong** » Thu Aug 02, 2012 9:36 pm

Cal lounged back in the seat next to Kevin, messing with controls on his staff that only he could see the labels to.

by **ASHLIE** » Fri Aug 03, 2012 2:02 am

Ashlie was sitting in the back, looking like a piece of equipment.

by **Narrator** » Fri Aug 03, 2012 12:41 pm

"We get everyone out safe?" Starlord asked.

"Dast well looks like none of you are happy about it."

by **Daniel Uriel** » Fri Aug 03, 2012 4:25 pm

"Well, there was this guy, and he kind of was cleaning the floor with us half the time and killed our prisoner, so yeah, not our best moment," Daniel grumbled from his seat.

"There was also some kind of superpowered Skrull dressed like a Mad Max reject," Kev said, "Pai-something."

by **Narrator** » Fri Aug 03, 2012 6:27 pm

"Paibok? Must have been part of the ambassador's entourage. Dast Skrulls made a bunch of fellas like him when they were tryin' to make another Super Skrull."

by **Calvin Strong** » Fri Aug 03, 2012 8:10 pm

Cal smirked. "Hear that, man? You beat up a junior super-skrull," he said, elbowing Kevin in the arm.

by **Kevin Gravis** » Fri Aug 03, 2012 8:15 pm

"Did more damage than you did," Kevin pointed out with a smirk.

by **Narrator** » Mon Aug 06, 2012 7:38 pm

"Well then, that's enough of that. What did we find out?"

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Tue Aug 07, 2012 12:21 am

"A bunch of things." Rachel said "Can I just show you? It'll save time."

by **Narrator** » Fri Aug 10, 2012 12:20 pm

"You can show Cosmo if you have to," he said as he nodded to the dog. "I get enough of that dast mindspeaking."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Fri Aug 10, 2012 1:35 pm

With a nod, Rachel linked with Cosmo and filled him n on how the mission had gone, and what the ambassador had revealed.

by **Narrator** » Fri Aug 10, 2012 1:37 pm

"This is not good, comrade." Cosmo broadcast.

"Dast well spit it out, then."

"It is the Church, Peter."

A grave look crossed Starlord's face.

"Folks, we've got a problem."

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 11:41 am

"You recognize the assassin?" Ashlie deduces.

by **Narrator** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 11:45 am

"He's part of a whole mess of dangerous to know people."

"The Universal Church of Truth. They're the bastards that figured out how to weaponize faith, of all things."

by **Kevin Gravis** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 12:05 pm

"How... how does that even work?" Kev thought aloud, "'I strongly believe I have a gun, therefore laser fingers'?" He made finger guns and mimed shooting with a whispered "Pew, pew."

by **Narrator** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 12:13 pm

"Here's the thing: one person doing that? It dast well doesn't amount to much. Their enforcers aren't channeling one person's faith, they're channeling whole ships of it. In some cases planets are tapped just for their belief."

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 12:23 pm

ASHLIE's head jerks and twitches.

"Please elaborate on mechanism of 'Belief'."

by **Kevin Gravis** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 12:43 pm

"Basically... umm... thought has energy... and they can harness it. Think of it that way Ash."

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 12:50 pm

"Average biological neuron signaling only has a potential of roughly 110 mili Volt, not nearly enough to produce a discharge of energy."

by **Narrator** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 12:54 pm

"The mind's a funny thing. It ain't bound by facts. You can think something without any proof, and you can deny something in the face of evidence against it. Dast well ain't logical, but that's what belief is."

"You get a whole ship of people that believe that these fellas are the chosen warriors of God, and the ship's designed to channel that into the armor of their enforcers. Dangerous stuff."

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 1:37 pm

"That is impossible."

by **Narrator** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 1:39 pm

"Well, seems you know a bit about belief yourself, considering you've seen the dast proof and still don't believe it."

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 2:09 pm

At that the robot somewhat collapses in on itself as it sits back down. It almost looks like it's pouting, which of course is ridiculous. It's just reprocessing it's memory banks.

by **Daniel Uriel** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 8:19 pm

"Guy did seem to have to say that he 'believed' something every three words," Daniel muttered. "All right... so what's their angle?"

by **Kevin Gravis** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 8:40 pm

"Space for the Space God?"

by **Narrator** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 8:43 pm

Starlord gave Kevin a look.

"Cute. No, their deal is the more faith they have, the more force of belief, the more they can do."

"And at this point we have to assume your friend's with them. That give anyone here the hibblies? Anyone?"

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Sat Aug 11, 2012 8:59 pm

"Way ahead of you." Rachel replied, shuddering a little at the thought.

by **Kevin Gravis** » Sun Aug 12, 2012 11:51 am

"There's no way Mira would actually help them," Kevin said firmly.

by **Narrator** » Sun Aug 12, 2012 1:31 pm

"Well there ain't but one way to find out, is there?"

by **Daniel Uriel** » Mon Aug 13, 2012 12:24 am

"All right. What's the plan, then?" Daniel asked, getting his game face on.

by **ASHLIE** » Mon Aug 13, 2012 2:14 am

"We need to locate one of their ships."

by **Narrator** » Mon Aug 13, 2012 12:39 pm

"Planning on hijacking one and riding it in?" He rubbed his chin. "Might work..."

by **Bobby Bowen** » Mon Aug 13, 2012 7:52 pm

"It'll work."

Bobby nodded, cracking his knuckles.

by **Calvin Strong** » Mon Aug 13, 2012 9:09 pm

"Mmm, never really liked churches. All that 'unnatural abomination' crap gets old. Let's do this thing," Cal mused.
