[DW] Blackthorn and Swordhand: OOC Thread

[Mazer Rackham]

@Steel, saw your body contortionist post - perhaps he draws the Roman way, pulling from the same side in reversed grip?

 

Just an idea.

 

EDIT: Mol, I am working something up.  Should have it in place shortly.

MR: problem is, both grips are on that side and swinging them free in a charge motion makes sense with the right shoulder forward.

 

Also reverse grip with a D&D style 'long sword'? Nope, nope, nope!

[Mazer Rackham]

Tyber's nine feet tall, you'll clear the deck, and if not, you'll have that cool Anime sparks thing flying everywhere...

 

MR.

[Steel Company]

Ugh... even up sizing the blade to Astartes proportions puts the blade around five to six feet long... not long enough to clear the deck.

@ Mol -

Telepathy was the thing I've been specializing Montesa in. He knows short and long range telepathy, which allows him to send messages to other people, but not receive them in return. That being said, Mind Scan, which is a fairly uninvasive psychic power, has the option to be able to have proper telepathic communications with a single target on a 5 DoS faceoff. I would have assumed the Captain would be more than aware Montesa would never attempt to invade the mind of his Captain, even if he was able to, so I would have argued Diocles might've intentionally failed the test, making it easy for Montesa to create a link for them to communicate freely. But, if you don't want me using my Telepathy powers,I won't.

 

 

Looks like Vorr cut off any chance at subtlety... :P

Vorr is as subtle as a brick with the word subtle written on it. If you want I can tone it back a bit though :)

[Commissar Molotov]

Too late now!

[Commissar Molotov]

Update up - and the Librarian's news might be quite a shock to those who have stalwartly stood behind Akkad...

[Reyner]

Oh :cuss has finally hit the fan!

[Mazer Rackham]

@ Mol only

 

Do you want the reply in, or do you want to let the scene breathe?

 

@ Reyner - and gone through the ceiling!  

 

MR.

[Commissar Molotov]

It would be interesting indeed to hear Vorr's thought process when confronted by news of such treachery!

 

Indeed, for all of you in balancing what you know of the man in front of you, compared to what you are being told. Think about the instinctual revulsion a Marine might have...

 

We are mining a rich seam here!

Mazer: we can do the reply up to Diocles' response?

Oh god I'm so conflicted, want Vorr to react now or let Akkad respond first? Edited February 6, 2021 by Reyner

[Mazer Rackham]

Akkad first.

 

Before you blow his head off. 

 

Oh yeah, look at that new sig too....

 

EDIT: Reply up.

 

MR.

[Reyner]

Hahaha amazing

[Mazer Rackham]

I can hear Vorr's thought processes...

 

Traitor!

But...it's Akkad...

Traitor!

But...it's Akkad...

 

Shut up brain, this Traitor goes up to eleven!

Pretty much! This is why Akkad still has a head!

Killer posts, guys! Really looking forward to introducing Helgrim to the team.

Steel:

Regarding Placeholder #3, I'm not sure about Tyber openly demanding proof just after Diocles has firmly confirmed that the Librarian is telling the truth - it seems to convey that you don't trust Diocles or are defiant. I think either (1) Have Tyber express disbelief and shock rather than a refusal to believe, or (2) Have Tyber ask how the Captain came to know about the war.

 

Just a thought before I reply.

[Steel Company]

CM:

 

 

Will do, most of the questions he has are going to be an internal dialogue, as well as protesting that Akkad must be innocent of this.

 

But he will ask how the Captain knows this information.
