				This thread is for the OOC discussion of "Iron Fist For Hire".<br><br>Iron Fist is the name of a group of hi-tech mercenaries, set in a cyberpunk world not to far in the future. The Mercenaries are BAD GUYS!<br><br>The game thread will involve extreme violence against NPCs and possibly against player characters too. Iron Fist is a ruthless organisation who have no problem with leaving a high body count behind them. Also, they do not subscribe to the "leave no one behind" motto. They do, however, subscribe to the "Leave no one behind <em>alive</em>" motto. In other words, if one of their own is incapacitated, or compromised, the group's leaders will have no hesitation in killing that group member!<br><br>Note that this is not something that will be done to PLAYER characters in a gratuitous fashion. NPCs will be dying all over the place, but PLAYER characters will only be eliminated if the player drops from the RP.<br><br>However, there may be an option for players to run two characters, one being a "hostage" character, and in that circumstance, the hostage may end up being expendable. This will be discussed at need.<br><br>My intention is to have this RP become a long term one, hopefully, with multiple missions.<br><br>Anyone interested in joining, please post a reply here. Discussion of the RP is moving here from the Group RPs Wanted thread called "Your Mission, Jim, should you choose to accept it... (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=78584.0)"

				Okay... First I'd like to present some posting rules. I'm sure they are rules we can all agree on, but if anyone has any objections, or any extra rules they would like to add, now is the time to say something.<br><br>1) No one-line posts. We all hate those... It is totally possible to post a one-word answer to yes/no as a decent length paragraph, by&nbsp; posting what the character is thinking about, what they are doing, and why they give the answer they do...<br><br>2) I realise not everyone can post every day. I'm one of those people who can't. I will try my best, but sometimes things crop up. However I would ask, in the interests of keeping things moving, that you try and post at least twice a week and more if you are able.<br><br>3) Related to that, if you find yourself on-line at the same time as one other person, please feel free to create a private one-on-one RP on the same theme, but for this RP I would ask you to limit the number of posts you make before <em>everyone</em> gets to respond to something sensible? I'm going to assume common sense here and not set any sort of arbitrary limit, but there is nothing worse that coming home from work to find that the RP has moved on about two hours in game time and you have no idea what your character is supposed to be doing! I'm sure we've all had it happen too!<br><br>4) RP style: I'm asking that everyone try and use prose where possible? I will be using third person historic tense. If you want to use first person present I have no problem, but I would like people to describe actions as a story and put speech in quotes and thoughts <em>in italics</em>.<br><br>5) If you aren't having fun, for fuck's sake tell me! Maybe we can do something about it?<br><br>I think that's it.<br><br>Now, characters. I will create a character thread. (May I suggest people bookmark it?)<br><br>I'm the team leader. My job is to co-ordinate the actions of the team. I may or may not be actively involved in the action on a job, but I will always be nearby.<br><br>We need:<br><br>A point man: This is the member who goes in first, neutralises the alarm systems, and will usually be the one to take whatever the target is. Sometimes, the point man might be the only member of the team to enter the target's location. rage0976 asked if he can take this role already, and I said he'd have to earn it... In fact, I'm planning on opening the RP with a little recruitment session, just to see whether the characters created match up to the roles they have been created for...<br><br>A sniper: This is the team member who gives over-watch to the others. Sometimes the sniper will be crucial to the mission - especially if it is an assassination mission. Sometimes less so, if there is no opposition expected. Usually the sniper will be the one adding to the (NPC) body count. Note that, as with the team leader, the sniper will not always "go in" with the team. It really depends on the exact situation. The sniper is the one carrying the heavy artillery, and watching the team's back.<br><br>A hacker/tech specialist. This is the role most crucial to the success of every operation. The hacker is the one who has the building schematics in their head, the one who disables the electronic systems and/or instructs the point man how to do so. The hacker is the one who taps into the enemy's surveillance systems and lets everyone know where they are and where the enemy is. (S)He figures out how things work and makes them not work if required. This role needs to be the most imaginative player, as I'm not going to spoon feed the plot to you guys, and the hacker is going to be making a lot of it up!<br><br>A Locksmith. Not all locks are electronic, and those that are, often are not on any sort of net. They can therefore not be hacked. So we need someone with a skill in taking out every sort of lock, from the most sophisticated electronic ones to the simplest, old-fashioned padlock. This character is most likely to be in on the action with the front man.<br><br>Close combat weapons specialists. The grunts, if you like. These characters are not essential to the plot and can be NPCs - in which case they become expendable. Basically there to provide support and firepower or muscle as required. Not the most imaginative role, but could be a lot more exciting than you might think...<br><br><br>I'm sure there was another one, but I can't think what it could be! If anyone else has any ideas, please post them. We may need a number of "specialists" for individual missions. This is going to be a bit like the "player hostages" idea. We'll cross that bridge as and when.<br><br>Technology:<br><br>As already pointed out, we are in cyberpunk tech-level. That means body modifications are available. The one essential modification for everyone is a cranial implant. If you don't want your character to have one, you need to give me a very good reason.<br><br>Basically (in case anyone doesn't know) a cranial implant is a small computer chip that is implanted in your head. It is linked directly to the brain, allowing you instant access to it's processors. It allows you to have a HUD (Head Up Display) of data actually inside your head overlaying what you can see without the need to wear cumbersome goggles or helmet. It gives instant access to the local computer networks, and also functions as a mobile telephone/radio, allowing silent communication between users on the same network/channel. <br><br>Body enhancements can include anything up to a full anthro make-over. I'm not suggesting this should be a furry RP, but if anyone wanted to be an anthro, they just have to give a convincing back-ground story for why they have had the expensive surgery done! More usual would be eyes and ears that would give enhanced sound and vision - these don't have to be animal-like if you don't want. A simple bionic implant will work.<br><br>Obviously, you can have enhancements to make you faster or stronger... <em>Steve Austin, Astronaut, a man barely alive!</em><br><br>Radar, sonar, and IR emission/detection are quite common too. These are very useful, but often come at the expense of actual sight and/or hearing. Note that, as with any <em>active</em> detection system, the emissions from these enhancements can compromise the user's location.<br><br><br><br>All this technology does give the opportunity for apparent god-modding! To limit this, I'm going to offer the following rules:<br><br>1) All enhancements to characters are to be specified and agreed in advance on character sheets. Once the character sheet is approved by me, no further enhancements are allowed, unless the character takes time out from the RP to have them surgically added! Note that this would normally take at least a month of game time, and in my experience that could add up to anything like a year or two of real time!<br><br>2) All enhancements have a down-side. You are free to decide what the individual disadvantages of your character's combination of enhancements might be, but you must specify them in your character sheet. If you can't come up with something, PM me and I'll work through it with you.<br><br>3) No enhancement can give "supernatural" powers. No flight, no teleporting, no stretching, no indestructibility. You get the picture...?<br><br>Okay. thoughts so far, people?

				*chuckles* You could always fight each other for the role? *sells tickets*<br><br>Having just seen a blog post elsewhere that pointed out how the role of Spock in Star Trek was originally offered to Martin Landau of M:I, I suddenly realised we might possibly need:<br><br>A disguise expert. This would be the team member working the inside. Quite likely along-side the team leader. Infiltrating the enemy and finding out as much intel as possible the "old fashioned" way. This role probably has the most opportunity for sex on the job, and might be best suited to a female character. (Can be played by a male player, but needs to be bisexual).<br><br><br>Weaponry:<br><br>We are talking basically the same sort of thing that is available today, with a few minor enhancements. For example, on-board targeting systems on hand-guns will interface with the user's cranial implant. Note that this system uses blue-tooth technology and like any wireless system it can be jammed. More sophisticated weapons will plug into a socket at the base of the user's skull (called a cranial jack) and cannot be jammed.<br><br><br><br>The Cranial Jack - Sorry, I forgot this bit. If you're a cyberpunk you should already know it anyway. <br><br>The cranial implant CAN have an external socket, usually at the base of the skull whre it is covered by hair. This is used to interface larger items of tech directly with the human brain, via the implant. Such items can be as small as an mp3 player or as large as a space battle cruiser depending on the application. Note that for this RP it's unlikely anyone will be flying any space battle cruisers - but you never know! If we get a commission to steal one, it may happen yet!<br><br>The point is, pretty much anything with an on-board computer can be plugged in to someone's cranial implant via a standard USB port.<br><br>This, however, has it's own risks. The firewalls on a cranial implant generally work fine to stop unwanted software from intruding via the normal wireless communications networks. But if you want to operate (say) a fighter aircraft using your implant, the first thing you must do is down-load the interface software and run it. If this contains a trojan, you may not have time to isolate and destroy it before it takes over your implant.<br><br>Viruses have been developed that will take over not just a cranial implant, but the human brain it is implanted in. They are only temporary, and not, as yet, 100% effective, but they can either render the victim unconscious, paralysed, or in a state of hypnosis.<br><br>And yes, we are the bad guys, so of course we are going to be using them!

				I'm totally up for playing disguise expert as well.<br><br>One more kind of technology which you could employ in the RP would be of the massive artificial intelligences..kind of like Neuromancer and its companion program Wintermute in William Gibson's Neuromancer, maybe an intel like this hires the team or the team has to take out one. Something along those lines.

				Right, troops, listen up...<br><br><span style="font-size: 18pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong>Ha-tennnnn-SHUN!</strong></span><br><br>That's better. All right, at ease. Yes, if you haven't already looked, you might notice that my character is Ex-British Army, Ex-SAS, and Ex-Officer. (The term "Rupert" is a derogatory term used by experienced grunts for an inexperienced officer just graduated out of Sandhurst Royal Military Academy. Anne Laughton is anything but that, however the grunts under her command call her the nick-name with some affection, partly in recognition that she is not a "Rupert" but also because she makes no secret of her sexuality. However she reacts very badly to people using the term in her presence!)<br><br>Okay, that aside, the first mission brief is almost ready. I am going to need your character sheets very soon.<br><br>To help you choose what characteristics to give your characters, I'm posting here a list of skills that will be required for the mission. Please feel free to pick as few as you like. Anyone picking none will not get on the team! Anyone picking all of them will also not get on the team, because I hate god-modders!<br><br>In other words, be sensible, don't be greedy, pick your favourite skills,&nbsp; pick a back-up set in case someone else gets that role.<br><br>Remember, you can always PM myself or the other players, or better yet, post something here to say what you are choosing. I know some of you have expressed preferences already, but I'm seriously thinking that the actual team roles may not be as strictly defined as you might think.<br><br>So, here are the skills required:<br><br><strong>Hacker </strong>- The ability to penetrate a secure computer system, extract information and feed false information in. This person is going to be the team's 2IC.<br><strong>Explosives expert</strong> - "You're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!" Expert means <em>expert</em>. I want someone who can set a charge that will remove a feather from a sparrow's wing and leave the sparrow flying, and at the same time can totally demolish a tower block in one go.<br><strong>Infiltrator/seducer</strong> - The pretty face to gain the required information that isn't stored on any computer. As already pointed out, this person needs to be an expert in disguises, and needs to be bi-sexual.<br><strong>Locksmith/electronics/alarms specialist</strong> - probably won't be needed, but I would like one along, just in case the intel gatherers fail to gather the right intel, and the explosives expert would create too much of a bang!<br><strong>Sniper/weapons specialist</strong> - Again, hopefully won't be needed, but I want some heavy artillery along just in case<br><br>EVERYONE, regardless of their other skills, is required to be a crack shot with a weapon of their choice, be it through natural ability or electronic enhancement.<br><br>Character sheets can be edited right up until I start the mission briefing, which won't be until everyone is happy with their character and everyone else's characters.<br>

				While I'm working on my charrie I figured I'd ask for some feedback on at least one of the modifications I'm considering. I was thinking about having implanted injectors with epinephrine that will be wired to the cranial jack for instant release, giving a boost to the fight response with the drawback of eventually deplating the energy of the body to leave the user exhausted after some time.<br><br>Also, I'm considering if the Scandinavian countries might have joined in a union.<br><br>And finally just for good measure.<br><br>Blade Runner - Vangelis Music Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJrOVLEUBgw#)<br><br>

				Ah yes, the late, great P.K.D. and his master work, <em>Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?</em><br><br>The enhancement seems perfectly logical to me, and I'm happy to approve it. One thing though... Do be careful about relying too much on enhancements. Sooner or later we are going to run across an opponent who can neutralise them!<br><br>So, Norway, Sweden and Finland? Denmark is more likely to stay out, because it has closer ties to the European Union, and would be more likely to join a Federal European Republic - Which Britain would veto and opt out of!<br><br>Other than that, I can see how that would be the case.

				Right... Back on topic.<br><br>I need to make a point that I keep meaning to say but I keep forgetting.<br><br>This is about Iron Fist's relationship with our clients.<br><br>Many of our clients wish to remain anonymous for obvious reasons. equally, we wish to protect our anonymity from our clients for the same reasons. So contact with potential clients is via an anonymous and untraceable email address, in response to various obscure adverts we place on the net.<br><br>However:<br><br>We always want to know as much about our clients as we can, and so we will inevitably hack them, as discreetly as possible, to learn who they are and exactly what it is they are really after. We stay alive by being paranoid!<br><br>Equally, Iron Fist is not above backstabbing out client, if it should prove to be more profitable to do so than to complete the contract. However, it must be pointed out that if we were to do this too often, word would quickly get around that we were unreliable. This would have two consequences. The first, lesser consequence would be the total loss of our client base and the immediate sessation of our income. The second, more serious one would be that our clients would almost certainly turn to our competitors to have <em>us</em> eliminated.<br><br><hr><br>I am working on the last few details for the first mission.<br><br>With three of us, it's probably going to be over fairly quickly! Would the other players, if still interested, please post to indicate such, and either state that they are working on character profiles or post said profiles in the characters thread? I'm looking to start the initial mission briefing this coming weekend or shortly thereafter.

				Edit your char sheet...<br><br>In fact, I'm going to do a little work on mine, before we start.<br><br>Question:<br><br>Does anyone have any objections to me locking the characters thread while the mission is in progress?<br><br>Also, there is at least one major NPC in this mission. I will be playing them, because there were several objections from others to playing characters that were "expendable".<br><br>Please feel free to create NPCs as you see fit. If you want someone else to play one, either post here or PM the person you want to play the character.<br><br>Another question: If the character thread is locked, should I create a NPC thread for people to post NPCs to? Personally I like the idea. Locking the character thread means no one can suddenly gain a skill they didn't have before, but more importantly it will point out to other players that the RP is full for the time being. (It can, I'm assured, be unlocked again). A NPC thread will allow you to post details of any NPCs you create, so we can all see who they are. The bios don't have to be as detailed, obviously. <br><br>There will also be a very important line right at the top: EXPENDABLE: Y/N. If you say Y, the character may end up getting dead. If you say N, it won't. Please reserve this for characters who are important to your main character - girl/boy friends, family, slaves/servants, etc - and that you wish to retain from one mission to the next.<br><br><br><br>So... if I'm locking the char thread, I will need a PM from everyone to say when they are happy with their character. Anna, you don't need to PM me unless you want to change. Yours is perfect!

				Yes, that's what I intended to do once I've finished mulling it over :)<br><br>No objections at all but do we also write a list of equipment, some leeway is always nice but when you pull out the right thing for the occasion time after time it could be a bit suspicious, or do we handle that IC?<br><br>I don't think I'm going to have NPCs running around that are going to be important but it is a good idea with a thread for them.<br><br>Also, any suggestions to modifications or skills you guys would like to see for Sofia?

				lol I know, Chrystal. I've fleshed him out some and will be posting soon.

So, people, you can get to Trinidad as quickly as you like, but feel free to relax and fuck each other - or create NPCs to fuck (My only ruling on sex with NPCs is that you get someone else to play the character, otherwise it's just sad)! Spend some time on the beach, get a tan. (Especially Oni. The guy is practically a ghost!)<br><br>And Anna, have you figured out why I laughed at one of your character's quirks yet?

				That's okay dear. Idachan didn't post either. RL always takes priority.<br><br>But yes, that was why I was laughing. I had already picked the location and actually found the satellite image on Google Earth (10.33.42 N 61.05.51 W in case anyone is interested), then you posted your character and I read that bit about her being agoraphobic in relation to open spaces! Oops! But I figured a) I had spent so much time finding that damn location, and b) it was your choice to make your character that way, so tough! ;) Anyway, Port Of Spain is a big enough city that she'll be okay. We can put a bag over her head or something when we have to drive out to to the target.

				Hi Idachan. Like I said, RL comes first, always. I have to admit to being a bit of a post-aholic.

				Okay, folks. I need an opinion: Several multi-player RPs I'm in are using multiple game threads, to represent different locations.<br><br>Now, So far, we only have the one game thread (obviously) as we are all in the same place. However, pretty soon we're going to be splitting up to carry out separate tasks.<br><br>There are only the five of us, so I don't think it will get too terribly confusing if we all post to the same place, but on the other paw, it might interrupt the flow of play if a sequence of posting between Niki and Mona is interrupted by Sofia posting about making bombs and Kirra posting about flirting with a NPC on the beach... (Or whatever...)<br><br>But equally, we have five players, that's two, two and one on there own. I really do not want the situation where one of you is posting to a single thread all by her/himself - might just as well be writing a story, rather than doing a RP! It's called "Collaborative writing" for a reason!<br><br>SOOOOO: Opinions please? Single thread or multiple threads? If we do multiple threads I would suggest keeping the main thread for characters who are on their own, to post in, and all the main action returns to the main thread. We would then have "branch threads", for example, Niki seducing Mona, Kirra and Anne taking out the maintenance team, or any other branch where two characters (or a character and a NPC played by another player) go off together.<br><br>The bigest problem I can see with that is keeping track of every thread.

				I have no idea how to "side-line" a character in this RP. When I came up with the plot, I had planned for the possibility of people dropping out, and planned it that they would do so permanently. I'm sure you can all guess, and I'm sure Niki is looking forward to being the means of such "retirement"...<br><br>If anyone has any better ideas (we play her character as an NPC until she gets back or we don't need her any more might work), please suggest them?

				*shrugs* She hasn't made a post -anywhere- on E since August 30th. No A/A. NPCing her isn't a bad idea, or we can troll for another talent and "retire" her. We could probably use one more RPer anyway, but I suppose we can run it with the crew we've got.

				Okay, I propose the following. Those of you most opposed to the permanent elimination of Anna's character must take her on as a NPC. How you do this is up to you. One of you can take the character, or you can share her between you and take it in turns to post.<br><br>However, the moment the character becomes a burden to you, she dies!<br><br>Happy with that?<br><br>And if you are, I would appreciate a post from Idachan and/or whoever is taking Anna's character in the game thread, please?

				OOOOHKay, let's have a quick run down of the state of the "cyberpunk" world transport network:<br><br>1) Most governments have collapsed, and/or been reorganised.<br>2) Oil is in SERIOUSLY short supply. There are resrves still under the poles and in the mid Pacific, but getting to them is very difficult. So far, space exploration has not found any off-world hydrocarbons in usable quantities.<br>3) With oil being something like $5,000 a barrel, travelling by jet has become a luxury that only the VERY wealthy can afford. There are still scheduled passenger jet flights, but they are about one a day to each destination.<br>4) Lighter-than-Air transport requires NO oil. Solar cells on the top of the blimp provide electricity to power the blimp. Helium is a natural bi-product of the Hydrogen Fusion Reactors that are used the world over, replacing all coal, oil and gas fired power stations.<br><br>SO, yes. A blimp. Slow but stable. 90% of all air travel is now made via He-Ship.<br><br>If Oni prefers, he can make his own way via the Transatlantic Tunnel, down through the East American Hegemony, cross the border into the Republic of Texas, Through the Central American Union, and catch a ferry from Panama City to Port Aux Prince.<br><br>Or if he really wants to risk crossing a war zone, he could cut through the Republic of Florida and catch a hydrofoil from Miami to Havana and then to Port Aux Prince.... The latter might get him there about the same time as the blimp. The former would take about a week longer!

				Could I ask you to make him sound a little less surprised though? <br><br>Oh and I would appreciate it if no body posts anything about arriving yet... The flight is going to be about 24 hours long (as opposed to nine on a jet) but comfortable with time and space to move around.

				People....<br><br>I haz a question.<br><br>This little by-play between Iffy and Oni is going to take a little time. Now, we agreed earlier that we would keep everything in one thread. I'm wondering though if this is such a good idea? I'm considering having a "cyberspace" Thread. <br><br>The problem as I see it is one of continuity. The interaction between Oni and Iffy is taking a few days of REAL, real time, is taking, maybe half an hour to two hours (depending on what they get up to) of GAME Cyber-time, but only a second or two of GAME real time. I hope everyone follows what I mean there?<br><br>(Just in case you don't, I'll summarise: The posting back and forth between myself and WB is taking a few days; The perceived conversation and subsequent whatever would appear to take maybe an hour...; But this all takes place in Oni's head while he's walking from the terminal to the airship!)<br><br>I notice that no-one else has posted in the mean time, this is probably good, as it saves WB from getting Oni's replies out of synch with each other, but I don't want to hold up the main game, while Oni cyber-fucks the AI (or whatever)!<br><br>Thoughts please?

				Nothing wrong with a specific cyberspace thread, but I know my character slips between the two so often that it might be hard to follow. *ponders* Okay, The cyberspace thread makes sense, but I would ask that for quick trips, I post it as one solid post in the game thread. Anything more substantial, like multiposts or conversations should go in the cyberspace thread.

				Okay... however, I'm still going to ask people to hold posting on the parachute Jump... Yuna and Sunday, feel free to jump in at any time, but I would ask you to make it plain in your posts when the events you are posting are taking place... So, for example, Yuna, you might have Danica arrive the previous evening and spend the night in an hotel, before making her way to the rendezvous site... Sunday, you might have Doc finish his current mission that night and then get a text from Iffy asking him if he would like another job?<br><br>Just suggestions, feel free to do your own thing, but now would be a good time to jump in...<br><br>Things are going to start POPPING!

				Sorry guys, but if Maria's parachute doesn't open, we have a VERY bad situation.<br><br>Namely the mission is compromised.<br><br>Lyn hitting the ground at terminal velocity would not be a problem, because a dead body is a dead body. By the time the cops solved it, it would have been too late.<br><br>An indestructible super-soldier drilling a bloody great crater in the ground is a little harder to hide, especially when the cops arrive and pull a live, dazed and totally naive woman from the hole!<br><br>Oni, it's a question of logistics. They dropped from the blimp at point X. Between there and parachute deployment there would be very little horizontal movement - point Y. After parachute deployment - these chutes are almost like hang-gliders, they will move to point Z before landing.<br><br>X----Y---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Z<br><br>Now, given that deployment is only 700' up, if someone's chute fails to open, they are going to hit the ground not far from Y.<br><br>There is no way the team can get back there in time to stop the cops finding her first! In fact, they would be unlikely to even know where she hit, and would have to search for her!<br><br>So sorry, I am exercising GM's veto. Everyone's chute opens unless they want out of the game!

				OKAY...<br><br><br>This RP is going to be officially locked closed and discontinued, UNLESS everyone (except Kaz, who is having RL fun and games) posts something in the game thread before next weekend!<br><br>I thought everyone was enjoying it, but no one has posted for over a month. <br><br>That is ridiculous. If you don't want to play any more, say so. If you want to move things on, FUCKING POST SOMETHING!<br><br>I'm sorry for the language, but this was my best idea ever for a group RP and it seems to have flopped because people lost interest, when it was actually a really exciting plot.<br><br>So... I shall give everyone until Xmas Day to reply, and then I lock out all the threads, and start again.<br><br>And yes, I shall restart this one, with fresh players. Maybe I can learn from my mistakes and get the thing moving a bit more quickly next time.
