Fake ID cards
Tape/Video recorder
Pistol
Nervestapler
Climbing ropes and hooks

The Probe Engineer

The Probe Engineer is the reason for the whole team - he's the one the others have to protect so he can use his computer and technical skills to hack into other factions Datalinks. He could also be a demolitions expert, or a mindcontrol specialist. He's the one with the know-how and the cool toys.

Combat Rations for the team
Heavy Encoded Radio Set

Glory to the Hive.

How the game is played :

Simple. Very simple. I post a description of your location, and you post WHATEVER you want to do. I post then what happens

Expect some amusement and excitement. First location will be in the fungus just outside the back entrance of Climatic Research Base. I hope you packed the warm jumpers, because it's snowing. Oh, that means you'll show up really well on the infrared camera above the only visible door. That is unless you want to try the MAIN entrance... which Mission Control advised against.

So... who's in?

-Jam

Vev · October 28, 2003, 19:48

I would like to be er....
*uses random number generator*

Assassin

Suits me fine. I get to be the 'grey man' the ordinary civilian no one notices. What else would I need, some sort of nightvision goggles.

So it is snowing eh? How cold is it? I may pack a cameoflaged drysuit is we going to be outside for a long while.

As for the camera does it have a blind spot? I was thinking of using a board cooled with snow to hide behind and slowly move forward. This is of course, if there isn't anyone looking around the entrace. But I will leave it up to the techie for advice on overcoming this electronic device.

Jamski · October 28, 2003, 20:06

Cool

Which toys did you want from the list, Vev?

-Jam

Vev · October 28, 2003, 20:15

Oh, oops missed that instruction

I was so tempted with the drugs, but in the end I opt for:

Silenced pistol (it is soo secret agent)
climbing kit (now I have to find a way to open that damn window)
stealth generator (although I suspect it is the usual Hive quality)

Personal item-
Mirror on a stick for peaking around corners.

Vev · October 28, 2003, 20:16

Action Alert!
It is because I changed something on the page and pressed the submit button thus causing two things to be created hence causing HongHu to say the next post. Oh yeah, I want that nightvision thing! Oh well, I still have the silenced maulers.

Snowflake · October 28, 2003, 23:21

Do you think posting twice gives you more power vev? And why did you took the one role I wanted to be?

Nubclear · October 29, 2003, 03:25

I'll be God

Don't get on my bad side. And you should PROBABLY keep at least one copy of the Hiverian bible. Uh oh!

Jamski · October 29, 2003, 05:27

Umm, God's not on the list, but feel free to play anyway Tass.

HongHu, actually, I thought of you when I was making the assassin. I don't know if you should be happy about that or not. I thought Vev would go for the engineer. Probably too much like real life.

Mirror on stick

Nice idea. Nice ideas get bonus points

-Jam

Jamski · October 29, 2003, 12:27

Here's a picture of your starting location. Looks like noone's about, it must be because of the snow. Huddleing behing the packing crates to keep out the wind, you wait for the rest of team to arrive.

-Jam

Jamski · October 29, 2003, 12:28

And a map, incase that wasn't clear

-Jam

Snowflake · October 29, 2003, 12:29

I thought there would be a party where one could have some fun and then sneak to the second floor to turn on the computer.

Jamski · October 29, 2003, 12:33

Heh, maybe there IS a party. Trouble is, how do you get in to the base first - and how do you locate the terminal?

-Jam

Snowflake · October 29, 2003, 13:05

I'm going in with an invitation of course. What you expect me to climb in from that little window? I mean maybe I could but that assassin is kind of stocky you know.

As for terminals, this is the university right? You'd expect you can see quite a few of those easily. These are their tools afterall.

Snowflake · October 29, 2003, 13:09

Oh and just let everybody know I am that allmighty newbie that everybody is talking about.

Glad to make your acquaintance.

Reason? For I really am not a classic women loving man. Plus I would have an urge to screw the task if you let me.

Oh and I can't be an engineer it took me about three months to get my no cd crack to work.

Jamski · October 29, 2003, 13:45

YAY! Ok, Vev is the assassin, and HongHu is the rookie

HongHu - the Hive expects you to do your best - now choose what "toys" you want to take from the list above, and we're nearly ready to go.

YAY!

-Jam

Snowflake · October 29, 2003, 14:14

Toy huh? Let's seee: Hmmm you have prepared sooo many fantastic equipment for the rookie. :sarcastic:

Combat Rations for the team - Rations? you mean food? I thought there was a party. Who has heard of a party without food?
Heavy Encoded Radio Set - nah, I have my black butterfly
Extra Batteries - nope, too heavy
Nervestapler - hmmm could come in handy. Is it the mini size?
Extra Rope - Have you heard of anybody who goes to a party with rolls of ropes?
Medikit - Well that could be useful too if it was as effective as the bandit you gave me
Smoke Grenades - I imagine the assassin would have plenty of these wouldn't he?
Warm Jumpers for the team - Oh I'll be riding directly to the door and once I'm inside it will be warm enough. ... What for the team you said? What do you mean a probe team agent couldn't take care of himself?

Ok so let's see what did I get: a minisize nerve stapler. That's it? Oh and the medikit, right size too of course. And my black butterfly.

Nubclear · October 29, 2003, 15:04

GOD MOD:
God looks down upon the University, and sighs slightly.
RESULT: There is now a slight breeze.

Jamski · October 29, 2003, 15:18

Tass, if you MUST be God, then fine, but please don't edit other people's posts continually. Thankyou.

HongHu - what is a black butterfly?

And yes, the new girl gets to hold the coats

-Jam

Jamski · October 29, 2003, 15:19

Oh, and Vev probably wants you to hold the grenades for him

-Jam

Snowflake · October 29, 2003, 15:48

You sure he would trust me with those?

As for the black butterfly, ask vev. Or even Marshal. Or Kody. Or just anybody who has a heart as well as a brain.

Jamski · October 29, 2003, 16:59

Sorry, my heart is broken

So anyone... what is a black butterfly?

-Jam

Snowflake · October 29, 2003, 17:51

That's why I didn't take the duct tape. Thought that somebody may be more needy than I am.

Jamski · October 29, 2003, 18:12

I'm sadly beyond the help of duct tape. I may need a paper towel and a paperclip.

-Jam

Snowflake · October 29, 2003, 18:36

Oops, paperclip was not on the list of supplies. How about that roll of ropes? Oh I forgot. I have a medikit! Let's see what's inside. mmm Tyleno. A few bandit. Rubber bands? Couple Kleenex. Hmmm a small mirror. With a stick. Hold there's letters carved in the stick. v-e-v. A key. Nailclipper. A bag of red tea. Instruction sheet. ... Kleenex has been specially treated with herbs and process instant healing power. (Wow!) Use the nailclipper to cut metal strings or wires. Be careful when using red tea bag. ...

Wow. Ok so you want the rubber band? It should work wonders for any broken pieces.

Vev · October 29, 2003, 19:10

What is going on???

Googlie · October 29, 2003, 21:52

Googlie shuffles up to join Vev and Honghu huddling behind the packing crates. He peers myopically at them thru the snowflakes, vaguely remembering them from the pre mission briefing.

Ah yes, the Assassin and the Rookie.

They look at him expectantly, and he frowns.

"Cripes, they think I'm the bloody team leader, and they're expecting instructions"

Googlie sticks out a mittened hand.

"Googlie. Probe Engineer First Class. Who are we waiting for?"

Vev and HongHu look at each other.

"The Boss," they both reply in unison.

Googlie nods sagely

"Ah yes. What'sisname. I met him at the briefing."

But for the life of him Googlie couldn't remember the face - or the name. That was probably the hallmark of the great Secret Agent - faceless and with a forgettable name.

"Whatcha got there?" Vev asked

Googlie pulled the rucksack closer and opened the drawstrings and peered in

"Just what I could grab on the way out. Download Terminal, Toolkit and this experimental mindcontrol probe. Oh, and this box of Q-tips."

Vev and HongHu just stared at Googlie.

Octavian X · October 30, 2003, 00:22

*cue mysterious sounding spy music*

"Where the hell's that music coming from?"

"Beat me..."

Enter Secret Agent Octavian X (codename: Mr. Xenodoughnut)...

Googlie · October 30, 2003, 00:26

Probe Engineer First Class Googlie looks at Mr Xenodoughnut:

"OK Boss .........what now? What's your plan?"

Octavian X · October 30, 2003, 00:29

Sorry, wanted to claim my spot before someone else did.

My items:

Climbing ropes and hooks - could be useful

Pistol - never know when you'll need it...

Latex face mask and mask making kit - if we look like top University officials, we won't need ID...

I've also brought along my instant xenodoughnut generator. Where would I be without it?

*end secret angent music*
