It is a symbol, a tool, a weapon, a companion. It incorporates all Six of the Holy Machines in perfect harmony. Though Rez would surely kill me should I attempt to unlock its secrets, some day the Harley, Son of David, shall lay open before me. Perhaps after her death.<br/><br/>- All things are compositions of the same basic elements. All things can be analyzed to their components, and then synthesized into new forms. It requires only sufficient skill on the part of the creator. In theory the same principles should apply whether the carriage is of metal or flesh. Sadly, my experiments on the latter have shown that I have much to learn along this Holy course. Yet I shall persist.<br/><br/>- The Magnet is the ultimate expression of the Creator's ineffable nature. It destroys the electronic, attracts the mechanical, and ignores the biological. It separates what is good from what is non-good.<br/><br/><br/><strong>Receiving Hx:</strong>(Biggest potential problem gets +1, everyone else gets -1)<br/>Truth Strong: -1.  (Not part of the Strong, no way, no how)<br/>Rez: +2 (Just like everyone else)<br/>Warner: 0 (Just like everyone else)<br/>Barbarossa: -1<br/>Marco:<br/><br/><strong>Giving Hx:</strong><br/>The character Amanuel finds the most strange -- Lance Corporal Warner.

The only trouble with that is most of'em don't know weird junk from useful tech...So he's gonna get more than a little weird junk from people who're liable to get pissy if their gifts aren't accepted. And then there's that other problem, after all...They're fuckin' thieves. Also, some of the so-called refreshments they "liberate" and want to share would probably work better for stripping cosmoline...<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>That works great. I figure the bikers come by and dump their stuff in a pile. Amanuel says some prayers and then turns on the big junkyard electromagnet, which separates out the good stuff (along with a lot of smashing and incidental destruction). Then we weld things to peoples' bikes, or make mufflers noisier, or what have you. If people are happy, they're happy. If not then Amanuel gets beat up. Later there's organ music, and sometimes pie.<br/><br/>Question for SGTDan:<br/>So am I reading that there's still an operational Marine base out there? I'd always pictured the Quarantine as a lone survivor, not part of an existing organization. Or are all of the other voices just in Warner's head?<br/>Not that having a bunch of Marines can't work out. It just means we've got the Strong family, the Vultures, Marco's boys and now a platoon of Marines around. That's an awful lot of warriors -- Cold Heritage is either going to have to turn them all against each other or else have Godzilla come stalking in out of the wastes.<br/><br/>If it does turn into the Battle of Four Armies, there's Sanctuary in the junkyard for anyone who's interested...<br/><br/>
