Knowhere IC

I've noticed we've picked up quite a few new arrivals this week, so I figured I'd just take a minute to say hello to the new arrivals.

My name is Adeleis Shepard, Captain of the Normandy. From a different than the one we've got here -- which is absolutely worth the visit if you're ever curious -- but I've been here awhile now. If you need any help getting your bearings, don't hesitate to let me know. If you're looking for a way to meet some new people, we've got a great new community center and I also run a weekly poker game -- all experience levels welcome. Just let me know if you'd like to stop by if there's a seat at the table.

For those of you with, or looking to acquire, flight experience, I'm also your go-to here. We've got several classes of ship including, if you're someone with...lets say, mental gifts? Anyway. If you've got the brain for it or the ability to work with interfaced technology easily, a very large ship we're still looking to pick up pilots for -- because it would be a shame if we suddenly lost that knowledge. Everyone else, doesn't matter if you're used to flying stick or with computer assistance, I'm happy to log some flight time with you. Same goes for all you aces back home looking to keep your skills sharp.

Hope you're all settling in alright.

Shepard, Out.

And I'd like to see about getting something we could use to test the targeting systems on the new defenses. Please not a life fire exercise. I'm all for being thorough when it comes to safety, but not at that much risk to myself if it can be avoided.

My name is George Mason, I'm from Earth in the early 2040s, and I'm new here.

Things that should be known about me:

• I have a dormant infection called Kellis-Amberlee which is highly unpleasant, and results in zombification. Therefore it would be in everybody's best interest. It only spreads via contact with infected tissue or fluids, so talking to me is fine (If you want to do it in person for some reason), but I believe everybody should know.


• I'm not insane for sitting in rooms with no lights on. I have an eye condition.

Things that I would like to know:

• How do I receive access to a pharmacy and (ideally) a medical lab as well as ophthalmology equipment?


• Is there anywhere here to ask for a loan? I have a medical condition that's going to make staying the barracks suck.


• Is there Coca-Cola here?


• Who here has no issue with shooting people in the head if it's necessary?

It's a pleasure to meet you all.

Let's see if I have internally consistent hallucinations.

Just a friendly reminder that tonight's poker night. In honor of the current mess going on with the passports, we're going to change things up tonight:

If you and your partner want to come, and your partner has never played poker before, you can play but you have to be their coach. If neither of you have played, but you want to come for a night of cards, gambling, and drinking, come on down. We'll teach you the rules. No buy in. Drinks are on me. We'll just play for fun tonight, get to know some new people. Hope to see you all there.

Shepard, Out.

(OOC: I will actually post results this week. Sorry about being so overwhelmed by life I've dropped the ball on this event. If you want to come, just sign up IC below. If you're part of the linked plot and you and your partner want to come, sign up as the same, but please include an OOC note in the subject line as to who the player and coach are so I can separate out the results please.)
