Right, this thread and the RPG have been a long time coming, but unfortunately my participation in it will be very sparse until a much longer time coming still, as I've virtually no time online between now and the 10th of July. At least, as far as I can see.

Anyway, this thread is for anything you'd like it to be for. If you want to post stories or information related to your characters in here without directly involving them in the RPG proper you can do so, and this will also be for talking over plot points and any problems/general questions that might arise.

After opening the RPG I'll leave it a while before I start the main story element rolling, so's everyone has time to settle into their characters and functions. I just need to figure out the mechanics of things and it'll be off.

Thanks for being patient with me. I'm sorry this has been so disorganised, heh.[/COLOR]

[color=navy]I ask this about most RPs, but what's the place look like? Is it more than one storey? Where do we stay? etc. etc. It helps to know stuff like that.

Thanks.[/color]

Well, I'm guessing that it's a pretty large facility, and I'm pretty sure that all of our characters live there (that was more or less stated in the Adventure Inn thread, as was the fact that the facility has accommidations for a lot of different races, and presumably everything required for the more millitary aspect as well).

I do have one question for you, Solo: what year does this RPG take place in? I ask because they date willprovide a clue as to the level of technological advancement (also, I'm assuming that Clandestine is ahead of the rest of the world in terms of technology, seeing as how there are aliens at the facility, and I'm assuming that they are ahead of earth, simply because they'd have to have interstellar travel to reach our planet).

[COLOR=#503F86]The facility itself is massive- think in terms of a small city, and it's not all on one level. It's made up of several complexes:
-Residential, which includes various trade outlets, recreation grounds and accomodation for most of the creatures living there.
-Research, which is the largest standalone section. It has several hangars which stretch about a mile underneath the ground and leads to the surface. From here they dispatch transports and vehicles of many different kinds. This complex also includes the storage of most of the military equipment. The training grounds are also located here, and there's a small residential area, too.
-Compound; a prison system used to hold violent creatures and keep artifacts in safe storage when not in use by the researchers. It has a small accommodation section where the prison guards live on rotation.
-Operations; A comparatively small section compared to everything else, this is where the entire facility is run and monitored. There are subsections for each major complex. The Agent Superiors reside here.

Everything is linked via a series of corridors/lifts/tunnels, and an incredibly long (and very fast) underground railway network links Clandestine to the major cities of Australia and to their Coastal Facility to the north, which is basically a plane/boat depot and transport station.

Inside, the place is kept pretty clean. Most of it is built like [URL=http://www.msm.cam.ac.uk/phase-trans/2004/Westminster/Westminster.html]Westminster Underground Station[/URL] with [URL=http://minimag.cz/dupe/images/florenc.jpg]various other influences[/URL], but the residential areas are much more homely, with carpets and plants dotted about the place. There's a large underground garden there as well, along with gyms, playing fields, cinemas, etc... Each corridor and room has its own serial number and everything excpet the houses are monitored by CCTV.

It's set in the present day, but some liberties can be taken with technologies as more alien artifacts and things are found/developed.[/COLOR]

[color=Navy]This is probably a stupid question but do the hackers hang around in the Operations area? It makes the most sense but I haven't been feeling smart lately and I have the need to confirm everything.

Sorry if its very blatant and it just doesn't make sense to my mind.

[color=#503f86]I don't mind questions at all ^_^ It helps me get to thinking, too.

Hackers do various things. Ones stationed within the base, when not on a break, carry out maintenance all over the complex or build and research technologies in the Research Complex. Some work on a rota system in Operations, but since it's generally a fairly boring task not many people volunteer for it.

UPDATE:

I'm not going to be able to post until Sunday evening, but I promise I'll initiate this chapter's main storyline when I can post. I'm sorry I've not had any time recently, but please keep posting as much as you like. Thanks for your patience, again >_>;[/color]
