I imagine having radios is relatively common in a city with this level of tech, but no phones.
That said, it sounds like Reyna is referring to military equipment we might have had from the Unkillables, but I'm still not sure about everyone else's relationship with them at this point in the...
When Jeanne-Marie was a child and teenager in Quebec, she spoke American with a Quebecois accent (and her French is likewise a Quebecois dialect rather than what they speak in France either in 101 PA or 2023 CE). When she came to Chi-Town, she quickly learned that people in the imperial metropol...
I think that sounds fine :)
Sorry about your headache. I'd recommend some music too, but I'm not sure I have too much that wouldn't exacerbate headaches rather the relieve them.
I want to play in a believable world? You speak as if you have something quite concrete in mind, but I really can't grasp what it is.
I'm happy to have Chan-Chan and Jeanne-Marie have some kind of relationship pre-game, but libraries and pawn-shops aren't really the kinds of places she hangs...
We already had this conversation, around here:
You've made a character who doesn't have very much natural overlap with mine BG-wise, but earlier this week you indicated that you would have had business with the Unkillables where we could have met. Without knowing anything about the nature of...
Not a puzzle so much as missing information. I'm not sure any of us has explicitly stated when they joined the Unkillables, though I suppose I can start. Jeanne-Marie joined in 98 or 99 PA prior to arriving in Tolkeen. She met the Colonel elsewhere, was approached for recruitment and joined...
No, this happens during the Future That Was. I think, maybe? That part isn't completely clear.
This happened several years later during the Future That Was when Chan-Chan was not around.
That's a bit of a rub, but the way you survive coming out as a spy is 1) do it yourself rather than be...
No, they were all in the Unkillables or at least closely associated with them. I imagine they were often a team within that company, though.
Jeanne-Marie probably didn't.
It's important to remember that past-Jeanne-Marie was a spy and thus lying about her loyalties and beliefs. Much of her...
From my understanding, a core part of the premise was that we were together for at least the last few years, and in particular we were together at the end. Once it becomes clear that more than one of us are back, everyone should fairly readily jump to the conclusion that all five of us are back...
Since they'd be meeting in the context of the Unkillables, it probably doesn't come as a great surprise that Jeanne-Marie has killed people, probably in the area of a dozen, certainly no more than fifty. She does not enjoy killing. Depending on what constitutes a "healer" to Sense Life, she...
Jeanne-Marie is working with the Unkillables already, so if Chan-Chan has interacted with them, it's very likely they've at least traded words. In particular, if the Colonel needed to trust Chan-Chan, Jeanne-Marie is one of the people who helps him figure out whether that's something he can...
I'm just taking a short moment to weigh in on this. In the excellent sci-fi novel Spin by Robert Charles Wilson, when orbit becomes inaccessible (for very different reasons), they restore global communications using a system of sub-orbital communication balloons, which might be an idea for some...
BTW @Dannigan I'm not sure I understand how you see Chan-Chan in the two timelines. From my understanding you want her to be untainted by the Future that Was, which means that she would have left Tolkeen shortly after the speech, right?
But in this new Future That Might Be, her time-senses tell...
