<strong>Old World Blues....</strong><br/><br/><br/>(http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110723115807/fallout/images/b/ba/Kleinkryptapl.png)<br/><br/><br/>You awake, naked and not alone. Several other people are scattered about, their naked bodies laying limp. As you blink several times to adjust to the dim light, you notice you appear to be in some kind of holding cell. The soft blue glow of the plasma field bathes you in its light. As you stretch your sore body you realize that a pip boy has been attached to your left wrist.<br/><br/>The cold steel floor does little to warm you, as you feel the cold air of the room. Across the plasma field you can make out several data terminals scattered about in some illogical array. Paper read outs seem to be pouring from them. The soft humming of the equipment is oddly soothing, if you take time time listen to it.<br/><br/>It is then that you see a large floating mechanical contraption float into the room. Several monitors jut out from its body and display disproportionate eyes. Atop the metal frame sits a brain encased in liquid. The mechanical creature seems to move side to side, as if examining you like a specimen.<br/><br/>"Hmm. Yes, yes! You all shall do. Forgive me for the headaches I surely have caused you, but, you see it was important to bring you HERE. We wouldn't want you...THERE. Nope. Absolutely not." The mechanical creature said in a rushed tone. Its voice high pitched and high strung.<br/><br/>Two small mechanical hands extended out of its spherical body and tapped the plasma field. "This is for my own protection. And yours. You have been selected to partake in research study. One that will provide numerous information and help me finally one up my colleague and rival!" The thing said, slipping a few feet away from the field.
