Player Plot: The Mole

[cityship]

Transmigrationers! It is time for our first inaugural player plot! (*Cue applause!*)

If you've been following the IC anon memes for a while, this may be something you've seen coming: There is a traitor in the crew, and they do not have good intentions in mind.

There will soon be devices placed all over the ship that will require the crew to find and deactivate them, lest they explode and we don't want them to explode. The devices may require different skillsets to deal with, from superpowers, to the ability to phase into another dimension, to plain ol' hacking and or skill with tools.

If you would like to have a character deal with one of the bombs, please sign up here. Space is limited - no more than 2-3 people per device - so sign up quickly (and please note what skills you'd like to bring to the table! There will be eight bombs in all.

There will also be the opportunity for a person to be taken hostage. If you're willing to volunteer, please post here! (This is not a first-come-first-serve; but timeliness is necessary).

Bomb 1: Renne, Celena, Zetta
Bomb 2: Axl, Angie
Bomb 3: Agent Booth, Captain Keyes, Lash
Bomb 4: John Connor, Dustin, Sarah Connor
Bomb 5: Cowabunga, Cassie
Bomb 6: Starfire, Kira, Ratchet
Bomb 7: Beastboy (finds), Jake, Tenth Doctor
Bomb 8: Tenaya, Ben Skywalker (finding), Lowe

Hostage Volunteers:THE HOSTAGE HAS BEEN PICKED; YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE

ADDENDUM: *THE CONTROLLED PERSON IS PICKED*

If you have any questions about the plot or about the bombs, please ask them here.

BOMB? (Hiatus? What? Bombs!) Count her in.

[cityship]

Sarah is on Bomb Team 3 with Booth and Keyes, and should be glad she isn't with the robots on Team 2.

HOSTAGE VOLUNTEER HERE

[sithhavecooties.livejournal.com]

Oh and Ben has this awkward talent where he can look at a map and know where weapons caches are (wtf) so I'd love to put him on a bomb squad.

[greennotgold]

Hostage volunteer \o

[starbolts]

Bomb volunteer! She has the starbolts as well as precise star-lasers, a flight ability, well above human strength, and her body is considerably more durable than a human's. She's been used as a sacrifice in high-risk situations before.

[morphitudinous]

Billy's disabled bombs in canon, but as this is a mission with limited slots I'd prefer Star have this chance. He's available as a backup though.

[jesushasagundam]

Kira will hack the hell out of bombs.

[cityship]

Kira is on Bomb Team 6 with Dustin/the Fifth Doctor and John Connor.

[quark-assassin.livejournal.com]

Dustin and Five are up for bombs (separate ones of course) and I'll offer Aeneas as a hostage (I am so abusive to this alien sob). Although, if the bomb lines start clogging up with volunteers, then Five maybe could help negotiate hostage release instead?

[cityship]

Dustin/Five (whichever you choose) is on Bomb Team 6 with Kira and John Connor.

[bonnypiperlad]

Putting Jamie in for a hostage volunteer - that is, if you want someone who will try and fight back and/or escape if he can.

[quark-assassin.livejournal.com]

If Jamie becomes a hostage then FIVE IS DEFINITELY COMING AFTER HIM. I mean, forget the bombs, really. .___.

[femalefool.livejournal.com]

Hostage volunteer right here!

[talks2stoplight.livejournal.com]

Count Ratchet in for a bomb team! Beside the obvious mechanical knowledge, his medical tools are good for getting into tight spots fingers might not be able to. Oh, and there's his holomatter projection too. Better to put a hologram in harm's way than a living person? :|a

[cityship]

Ratchet is on Bomb Team 2 with Axl and Angie.

[ofgentlegreen.livejournal.com]

Hostage volunteer if you please!

[staturity]

Cassie can work on deactivating one.

Derp, forgot to say that she's been working on taking apart and putting things back together so this is right up her alley. Also growing and shrinking powers.

[cityship]

Cassie is on Bomb Team 5 with Cowabunga.

[curiousredsoul]

Bombs? Count Celena in on the defusing with either magic, engineering skills or both at once!

[cityship]

Celena is on Bomb Team 1 with Starfire and Renne.

[gunslinging.livejournal.com]

I would be all over having Axl help with one of the bombs. Although I don't think he knows much about straight-up defusion, he is a fountain of knowledge about guns and weapon systems in general. And he's stronger/more durable/has better senses and perception than a human would be.

[gunslinging.livejournal.com]

oh it occurs to me now that built-in scanners and stuff mean he "see" in ways other than straight visual like humans, so he could also work really well to just locate a bomb for somebody else to disarm, if that works better.

[mynameis-jake.livejournal.com]

If there happen to be any bombs that, say:

- require stomping on by a large animal
- reside underwater or in a dark cave
- have small crevices that must be accessed, as by an insect, lizard, or maybe an anteater tongue

then I'd love to get Jake and/or some of the other resident shapeshifters involved?

[cityship]

Jake is on Bomb Team 4 with Beastboy.

[cow-abunga.livejournal.com]

Bomb volunteer. Being able to build bombs would lead to knowing how to defuse them.

[cityship]

Cowabunga is on Bomb Team 5 with Cassie.

[neverwastenaya.livejournal.com]

Tenaya can hack with her MIND!

...Okay, well, she can plug in and THEN hack with her MIND. But it counts! Bomb volunteer.

[cityship]

Tenaya is on Bomb Team 8 with Ben Skywalker and Lord Zetta.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Zetta would love a piece of this actions... somehow. :)

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Oh right, power: There are a couple of options:

Someone with enough mana could simply write a wish in the Sacred Tome for the bomb to be defused, at modest cost to said mana.

Zetta could also invite one of his construct-mooks, have them pick up the bomb, and then dismiss them.

Bombs who fear badass freakin' Overlords may simply shut down in pure terror at his presence.

(Basically, Zetta would be awesome at taking care of a bomb that can't otherwise be disabled.)

[saint-sami.livejournal.com]

Lowe is a hacker, so if you need a hacker, I'll toss him in. Also, I'm offering Shadow to haul people around since he's now the fastest person on the ship.

As for hostages, I offer Sasami, because if I offer Vivio, then whoever the mastermind is would get his ass kicked by either her or her mothers.

And that's just terrible.

[thunder-ace.livejournal.com]

Why is it terrible. THEY HAD IT COMING. :|

Plus I really doubt anyone would get too worked up over the person trying to blow up the ship getting beat up by a few magical girls.

[thewunderkind]

Lash and bombs are like Bread and Butter. She'll disarm one with her eyes closed. Or with a team of people.

[cityship]

Lash is on Bomb Team 7 with Lowe and the Tenth Doctor.

[robots-omgh8u.livejournal.com]

Well how can I not sign John up for this. Of course if there needs to be a hostage rescue team I'd love for him to be on that, so if it's between the two I'll happily let someone else deal with the bombs for a chance to shoot something up.

[cityship]

John is on Bomb Team 6 with Kira and Dustin/Fifth Doctor, unless he's needed in hostage rescue.

[shroudedintent]

As above, if there's a hostage rescue would be interested in throwing 'Vadum for that

[drowpaladin.livejournal.com]

Diplomacy wut? If there is a team for hostage negotiations May might work for that. And I would love to see her there.

I'm going to have Stephen sit out of this one as it seems like there've been plenty of bomb-disarming volunteers so far. ^.^

[sexygman.livejournal.com]

Booth could work on one of the bombs, maybe...he must have some FBI/Ranger abilities filed away that could come in handy during the incident.

[cityship]

Booth is on Bomb Team 3 with Captain Keyes and Sarah Connor.

[bears-omnitrix.livejournal.com]

Amazingly I have no one who could cover bomb disarmament. Not even Reimi and she's from the Goddamn future.

So as such, offering Ben as kidnap bait. Yes, you heard right. He's massive kidnap-Mind Control bait.

[queenofcalamity.livejournal.com]

Is Nura allowed to beat the kidnapper to an inch of his life for touching her kid?

[konoka-chan.livejournal.com]

Hostage, obviously. I even come with an icon!

But uh, if Setsuna somehow becomes on instead, Konoka will start raging. Do you want to see Konoka start raging?

[bladesinflight.livejournal.com]

-- ffff, I just noticed this. It's going to be... interesting if Konoka gets kidnapped while Setsuna is on an away mission (http://community.livejournal.com/trans_pilgrims/405730.html)... XD
