From Mazeworld
14:03:36 <Hebizuka> *You have a bit of trouble understanding what happened... The last thing you remember, you're pretty sure you died, but here you are, slowly waking up from what seemed like a very long nap. The first thing you notice is that you're waking up in a hospital bedroom. It doesn't look like home or anywhere familiar.* 14:03:47 <Hebizuka> *The next thing you notice is that you're naked and there's nothing that belongs - or used to belong - to you here. And just as you make note of that, a television turns on automatically on the end of the room, revealing the head of a human male. Lab coat, thick frame glasses, bald head ; he looks like a medic.* 14:04:03 <Tempest> [Medic] Hello? Can you hear me? 14:05:40 * Keska_Matsuo remembered little aside the copper taste flooding her mouth before the light's went out, but here she was naked and alone in what appeared to be a hospital. Eyes patrolling for anything of note, till the television flicked on and someone was apparently talking to her "Is this hell?" 14:07:10 <Tempest> [Medic] No, this is not Hell, but I'll get to that later. I know you must be feeling disoriented right now but I have important questions to ask, which will help me determine if, er... everything went well. Once this is dealt with, I'll explain all that I can, but my questions first, understood? 14:08:26 * Keska_Matsuo spent the time the television was talking absently rubbing the cheek where she was sure she put a large hole into, wondering if she missed that badly "Questions? i guess so" 14:08:52 <Tempest> [Medic] Alright. I'm going to need you to tell me your full name, your gender, and your age. 14:09:54 <Keska_Matsuo> "Keska Matsuo, female and 19" 14:10:37 <Tempest> [Medic] Okay. Now, come closer to the TV monitor. I'm going to display choices for the next questions. What species are you? 14:10:41 <Hebizuka> [Choose one] >Human >Halfling (subchoices) 14:11:41 * Keska_Matsuo took a few steps towards the television and sat herself down crossing her legs, being reminded of many lessons about sitting so close to a television and making sure she could read clearly "Human" 14:12:30 <Hebizuka> [Info] As a human, you have no racial advantages or disadvantages. 14:12:56 <Tempest> [Medic] Normally, for the rest of this, I'd do this myself with more advanced machines, but we've had a lot of equipment damage recently.... So I brought in some old measurement machines, reference posters, and a bunch of mirrors. You're going to use them for the questions I'll ask. 14:13:20 <Tempest> [Medic] Take a peek at the mirror in the corner, and tell me what you'd say your constitution would be. 14:13:23 <Hebizuka> [Choose one] Average, Thin, Slender, Athletic, Muscular, Overweight, Fat 14:14:42 * Keska_Matsuo looked around at the equipment dotted around the room, finding her way over to the mirror and talking a good look at herself, more concerned with finding out where the bullet she shot herself with went "Thin" she answered while looking closesly at her mouth. 14:15:25 <Hebizuka> [Info] Thin constitution grants Agility+2, but 20% less maximum limb HP 14:15:28 <Hebizuka> *Confirm choice?* 14:16:23 <Keska_Matsuo> *Confirm* 14:18:01 <Tempest> [Medic] Vey well... Now, using the equipment in the room, I need you to give me more superficial information. It's mostly for the sake of having a more complete file. 14:18:10 <Hebizuka> [Indicate your height and weight.] 14:19:42 * Keska_Matsuo moved over to the next piece of equipment, very old school style scale and measurement device all in one. Stepping on and looking both down and up to get both of the needed results "158cm, 53kg" 14:20:41 <Hebizuka> [Skin color? Select one] Diamond (Albino), Opal (Nordic, pale white), Pearl (Caucasian), Peridot (Arabid), Heliodor (East asian), Citrine (Malay, filipino), Carnelian (Latino), Axinite (Native American), Onyx (Black), None of them (specify which color) 14:21:15 * Keska_Matsuo did get a good idea of what her skin color was during her mirror examination "Nordic" 14:21:30 <Hebizuka> *Understanding it as Opal-type.* 14:22:14 <Hebizuka> [Indicate your hair length and color, and your eye color.] 14:23:26 * Keska_Matsuo ran a finger through her hair slowly while looking "Black, shoulder length, red highlight, Blue eyes" 14:24:18 <Tempest> [Medic] All good so far. At the very least you look... yourself, if I may. Now, we'll check your physical abilities, so keep your eye on the monitor. 14:24:39 <Hebizuka> *You will now decide your Primary statistics. You will be given points to spend across a few statistics; adjust as necessary.* 14:24:46 <Hebizuka> *For this first part, you have 5 points to distribute among five statistics. All of those stats are currently set at 0 points. They can go no lower than -4, and no higher than +4. If you want more points to spend, you can remove points from stats at 0 in order to put them elsewhere.* 14:25:03 <Hebizuka> Points to spend: 5 14:25:03 <Hebizuka> Natural Pain sensitivity: 0 pts - 100%. 1 pt = 5%. (LOWER is better) 14:25:03 <Hebizuka> Natural Strength: 0 pts - 100%. 1 pt = 10%. (Higher is better) 14:25:03 <Hebizuka> Maximum Pain before blackout: 0 pts - 100%. 1 pt = 5%. (Higher is better) 14:25:03 <Hebizuka> Maximum Blood: 0 pts - 20. 1 pt = 1 blood. (Higher is better) 14:25:03 <Hebizuka> Natural limb health modifier: 0 pts - 100%. 1 pt = 10%. (Higher is better) 14:27:18 <Keska_Matsuo> +2 NPS, +2 NS, +1 MPB 14:28:29 <Hebizuka> *Reviewing choices:* 14:28:32 <Hebizuka> Points spent: 5/5 14:28:32 <Hebizuka> Natural Pain sensitivity: 2 pts - 90%. 14:28:32 <Hebizuka> Natural Strength: 2 pts - 120%. 14:28:32 <Hebizuka> Maximum Pain before blackout: 1 pts - 105%. 14:28:32 <Hebizuka> Maximum Blood: 0 pts - 20. 14:28:32 <Hebizuka> Natural limb health modifier: 0 pts - 100%. 14:28:39 <Hebizuka> *You may confirm or adjust further.* 14:29:12 <Keska_Matsuo> *confirm* 14:29:47 <Hebizuka> [Info] As you have chosen Thin constitution earlier, your actual limb health modifier is 80%. 14:31:12 <Hebizuka> [Info] Your maximum limb health is as follows: Head - 08 ; Chest - 32 ; Chest - 24 ; Arms and legs - 16 ; Hands and feet - 12 14:33:15 <Tempest> [Medic] Good. You're in good physical shape, this is reassuring. Now that I know your body is working like it should be, let's talk about fighting skills. 14:34:09 * Lunar_Rabbit (Rally@StormBit-0jpoq2.sntcca.sbcglobal.net) has joined 14:34:19 <Hebizuka> Points to spend: 10 14:34:19 <Hebizuka> 1 point in any skill category = 50 Training Points (TPs) in that combat skill. 14:34:19 <Hebizuka> 0 or 1 points leaves the skill level at Unskilled (low accuracy) 14:34:19 <Hebizuka> 100 TPs/2 points required for Basic level (normal accuracy) 14:34:19 <Hebizuka> 250 TPs/5 points required for Skilled level (improved accuracy) 14:34:19 <Hebizuka> 14:34:19 <Hebizuka> No skill can have less than 0 points spent - you can get no more than 10 points to distribute. 14:34:19 <Hebizuka> Each weapon type represents one skill ; there is a total of 20 combat skills, not 3. (E.g. points are placed in "Auto rifle", not "Firearms", and so on.) 14:34:19 <Hebizuka> 14:34:19 <Hebizuka> Firearm skills: Bolt-action - Pump-action - Lever-action - Auto pistol - Auto rifle - Auto shotgun - Semi-auto pistol - Semi-auto rifle - Semi-auto shotgun - DA revolver - SA revolver 14:34:19 <Hebizuka> Explosive skills: Grenade launcher - Rocket launcher - Planted explosives 14:34:19 <Hebizuka> Melee skills: Blunt - Sharp - Piercing - Thrown - Non-firearm ranged weapon - Unarmed (martial arts) 14:36:38 <Keska_Matsuo> +5 Semi-Auto Pistol, +5 Semi-Auto Rifle 14:37:33 <Hebizuka> *You will receive 250 TPs in Semi Pistol (Skilled), and 250 TPs in Semi Rifle (Skilled). Is this correct?* 14:37:46 <Keska_Matsuo> *confirm* 14:38:25 <Tempest> [Medic] Excellent. Now... I don't suppose you want to stay naked all day, so let's assign you some equipment. Pay close attention here, alright? 14:39:03 <Hebizuka> *You have 5 points to spend across ALL equipment categories, including weapons, so choose wisely.

Thanks for keeping up with me and my questionnaire. I will be coming in person to deliver your equipment - just give me the time to gather it for you. 14:53:54 <Hebizuka> *After a little while, the medic shows up in person, pushing a cart inside of the room. There are three boxes inside of the cart - presumably containing your gear.* 14:55:12 <Tempest> [Medic] Good morning, Keska. 14:56:29 * Keska_Matsuo was back at the mirror inspecting herself when the medic arrived, turning to face them and all the goodies they brought with "Morning" 14:57:02 <Tempest> [Medic] Feel free to open the boxes and gear up. We'll talk afterwards. 14:57:53 <Hebizuka> *Boxes: Clothing, LBE, Weapons* 14:58:26 * Keska_Matsuo pulls out the three boxes from the cart and lines them up, opening each in order from clothing to LBE, to weapons. 14:58:36 <Hebizuka> =Clothing crate= 14:58:36 <Hebizuka> [Clothing] Top - Shirt with tie (Upper body, Arms) - AC: C2 - Blunt-resistant - RagOK - Weight: 3 - [Cond: Brand new] 14:58:36 <Hebizuka> [Clothing] Bottom - Cargo pants, plain color (Lower body, Legs, Crotch) - AC: C3 - Blunt-resistant, Sharp-resistant - Weight: 5 - [Cond: Brand new] 14:58:36 <Hebizuka> [Clothing] Headgear - SPECTRA helmet - AC: A3 - Blunt-PROOF, Sharp-PROOF, Piercing-resistant - Ballistic protective - Weight: 9 - [Cond: Brand new] 15:00:01 * Keska_Matsuo sets about putting each piece of clothing on. 15:01:27 <Hebizuka> =LBE crate= 15:01:27 <Hebizuka> [LBE] (Backpack) Jaeger rucksack - Capacity 60 units 15:01:27 <Hebizuka> [LBE] (Utility belt) LE duty belt - Capacity 2 units + Ammo 1 (4 pistol mags only, max tier: Small) + Spare wpn.

We're finished with the things I want you to do, as far as I'm concerned. Now, you may ask any questions you have on your mind, I'll try to answer as best as I can. 15:07:36 * Keska_Matsuo finishes with her equipment and looks back to the medic, shrugging her shoulders thinking about the hundreds of questions she might ask but forgoing the option "I think i'm good" 15:08:02 <Tempest> [Medic] Really? You're ... taking this a lot better than I imagined. 15:08:13 <Tempest> [Medic] Well, I think the psych questions I had in mind come at the right time... 15:08:56 <Keska_Matsuo> "I've answered enough of them, lets get through it quickly" 15:09:21 <Tempest> [Medic] First, do you remember how you died? 15:10:23 <Keska_Matsuo> "M1911 bullet through the left cheek, exiting the back of the head, not sure if i died from the that or swallowing several pints of blood though" 15:10:57 <Tempest> *The medic grimaces at the colorful description. Less because it's gory and more because of the delivery.* 15:11:54 <Tempest> [Medic] Ahem... moving on. Which of these descriptors apply best to your personality type? 15:11:56 <Hebizuka> Type A: Reserved, responsible and passionate, but also stubborn, tense, and squeamish. 15:11:56 <Hebizuka> Type B: Creative, strong, always active, but also irresponsible, selfish and unforgiving. 15:11:56 <Hebizuka> Type C: Cool, adaptable, rational, but also cold-hearted, indecisive and forgetful. 15:11:56 <Hebizuka> Type D: Confident, optimistic and strong-willed, but also egotistical, unpredictable and doubtful. 15:11:56 <Hebizuka> I have no idea / I'm not sure 15:12:43 <Keska_Matsuo> "Not sure to be honest" 15:14:12 <Tempest> [Medic] My personal evaluation is Type B, in case you want my opinion. 15:14:23 <Keska_Matsuo> "You're the expert" 15:14:58 <Tempest> [Medic] Question 3 out of 4... How would you describe your ability to withstand stress in your daily life? 15:15:04 <Hebizuka> <<< Very low ; I try my hardest to avoid any and all stressors 15:15:04 <Hebizuka> << Low ; I stay away as much as I can from stressful things 15:15:04 <Hebizuka> < Below average ; I have difficulty managing stress 15:15:04 <Hebizuka> Average ; I can handle stress, to some extent 15:15:04 <Hebizuka> > Above average ; I am used to stressful events 15:15:04 <Hebizuka> >> High ; I've grown to handle all but the hardest events 15:15:04 <Hebizuka> >>> Very high ; I feel completely insensitive and unable to be stressed out 15:16:16 * Keska_Matsuo contemplates the answer up till the point she shot herself "High" 15:17:03 <Tempest> [Medic] Last one... How energetic would you describe yourself as? 15:17:07 <Hebizuka> <<< Wet noodle ; I am unable to do any sort of hard work lest I pass out 15:17:07 <Hebizuka> << Weak ; I am tired easily and I require frequent resting 15:17:07 <Hebizuka> < Fragile ; I am average, just not very endurant 15:17:07 <Hebizuka> Average ; I am capable of taking some hard work if I need to 15:17:07 <Hebizuka> > Tough ; I'm not afraid of hard work and can last a while 15:17:07 <Hebizuka> >> Hyperactive ; I can handle so much, inactivity actually tires me 15:17:07 <Hebizuka> >>> Unstoppable ; I could last entire days of work without sleep 15:18:10 * Keska_Matsuo never slept much if at all "Unstoppable" 15:19:12 <Tempest> [Medic] Alright, that's it then. If you're sure that you don't have any questions, I'll go on and explain the basics. You died, indeed, but my boss, the Administator, saw fit to have your soul captured and placed in a new body, which I was tasked to build. 15:20:09 <Tempest> [Medic] While she doesn't want you to work for her in return, you do have an objective - that you're free to work on or not: finding the four Cardinal Amulets, ancient legendary artifacts. Nobody is really certain that they exist or not, but the Admin confirmed that this is your goal and that they'll grant you the right to return to your homeworld. 15:20:44 <Tempest> [Medic] And that's it. My job is done, all I have left to do is escort you to the town of Arnett. You're free to go from then on. 15:21:54 * Keska_Matsuo lets out a small sigh of relief now the pysch test is over, listening to the explanation of the medic about what happened, not exactly taking it for a whole truth but not in a position to deny it either "Then lets get going" 15:23:04 <Hebizuka> *The medic simply noddles. You're taken outside of the little run-down hospital bedroom. And after a little bit of walking, you find yourself in the Social Square Center of Arnett - a big room that branches off in four directions, hinting at several shops, businesses and facilities.* 15:24:43 <Tempest> [Medic] That's where our paths split. If you want to visit town, make sure to peek at the town map. Every town has a social square, and the map is always in the center of it. 15:25:01 <Tempest> [Medic] If you want to leave, look for the Town Entrance on the map, and get there to reach the exit. 15:26:00 <Keska_Matsuo> "Thanks for the help remaking me i guess" 15:26:26 <Hebizuka> *The doctor simply gives a nod, and leaves. You're now free to move and act as you please.* 15:26:38 * Keska_Matsuo gives a slightly morbid glare at the medic as she leaves. 15:28:35 <Hebizuka> *You are now in Arnett's Social Square Center. There aren't very many people coming and going at this time of the morning - in fact you're the only one in the SS Center right now. You can hear the background noise and the vague sounds of ads on a radio speaker.* 15:28:56 <Hebizuka> *But more importantly, you can see the town map, which indicates which facilities and parts of town you can reach from where you are.* 15:29:33 * Keska_Matsuo wanders over to the town map and takes a look to see what is around. 15:30:56 <Hebizuka> =Town map= 15:30:56 <Hebizuka> Social square: SS Center (you are here!), Bank, Hiring bureau, Bar, Restaurant (diner), Takeout stand, Shooting range, Library 15:30:56 <Hebizuka> Other areas of town: Center - Social Square (you are here!) // North exit: Hospital, West exit: Residential area, East exit: Shops, South exit: Town entrance 15:32:16 * Keska_Matsuo seeing as she has no money at all decides to head south and go exploring. 15:33:24 <Hebizuka> *6 turns pass, while you walk along the South street and exit the Social Square...* 15:33:45 <Hebizuka> [Area] Arnett - Town Entrance 15:33:58 <Hebizuka> *You're now in the Gap corridor, which is really just an empty room with signs and directions.* 15:34:18 <Hebizuka> [Doors] East: Generator, South: Town Gate // North: Social Square 15:35:54 * Keska_Matsuo looks to the generator room with curiosity, taking a stroll that way. 15:36:20 <Hebizuka> [Area] Arnett - Generator 15:37:37 <Hebizuka> *A mere turn and a door passed, and you find yourself in the control room of the town generator. You understand that this is a facility that provides power to the entire town of Arnett. Two engineers can be seen there, one of them sitting at the power monitoring computer, and the other standing near the door to the north.* 15:37:58 <Hebizuka> [Doors] North: Corridor (Locked) // South: Back to Town Entrance 15:38:41 * Keska_Matsuo makes a mental note of the power station for future 'endeavors', before turning on her heel and leaving the way she came. 15:38:53 <Hebizuka> *The engineers didn't even notice you came and left.* 15:40:03 <Hebizuka> *Back in the Town Entrance's Gap corridor.* 15:40:27 <Hebizuka> [Doors] North: Social Square, South: Town Gate // East: Generator 15:40:39 * Keska_Matsuo continues on her original path out of the town, south. 15:42:11 <Hebizuka> *The Town Gate - really just a room guarded by locals that serves as a threshold between the outside and the town proper. It is currently guarded by two Maze Citizens - one with a conventional rifle, the other with a pistol.* 15:42:45 * Keska_Matsuo gives the pair of guards a small wave before heading out of the gate proper into uncharted territory. 15:43:54 <Hebizuka> [Doors] West: Toilets, South: Access corridor // North: Gap corridor 15:43:59 <Hebizuka> *Going south?* 15:44:15 * Keska_Matsuo continues going south. 15:44:45 <Hebizuka> *The Access corridor is - for people coming in town, the first thing they see, and for people leaving, the last "safe" room before the Uncivilized Area (UA).* 15:45:13 <Hebizuka> *Above the door you just passed are signs: "WELCOME TO ARNETT". The walls are plastered with old, faded and torn posters and placards advertising about various things.* 15:45:25 <Hebizuka> [Doors] South: Leaving Arnett for the UA // North: Town Gate 15:46:26 * Keska_Matsuo takes a passing glance at the sign on her way southward. 15:48:39 <Hebizuka> *You are leaving for the UA. Usually, when leaving a town, you are prompted to select a destination.
