Megaversal Remix

It was as easy as walking through a doorway. Moment earlier it had been a sweltering summer afternoon in a Virginia swamp, and now you look out upon the world and feel a slight chill. It is night, and off in the distance the eerie glow of red peppers the horizon. You stand at the nexus of two ley lines, all glowing with the same red energy as on your Earth. The land around you is damp, as you are on a field of wet grass, cut short as if tended by man. A mile to the east are the lights of a small town. You must already be within their outer perimeter. Though without the Sun's light you're not certain how far from any sentries you may be. There are a number of animal and insect noises all around you, but nothing that sounds hostile. At this range, you hear no real activity, coming from the town.

Welcome to Earth Two.

"Tsk, coming in this close to the natives could be bothersome." A'den speaks to no one in particular.

"We are exposed out here. Fi...Atin, scout ahead to the east. If that is a town I want to know about it. It's inhabitants could prove useful. Do not reveal yourselves. Niner and Darman, you will come with me. We will need to find someplace to hide the airship."

While Fi an Atin scout ahead, you really find nothing useful to hide the vehicle with. It's a dark enough night that a tarp, and putting it by a few trees, could at least obscure exactly what you're traveling around in however.

With no hiding place in sight A'den makes due. He will attempt to find any stand of trees or bushes that can at least partially disguise the outline of the airship.

I knew I should have had that stealth system installed before we left. Something I might have to remedy if we are to stay long on this world.

With that done, A'den will telepathically contact Fi an Atin so that they can meat, and approach the town together.

He takes the form of a seemingly identical Alteran. Carrying only his Dragonfire Sword and the 3 Line Locker bolas on his person.

Just to be clear, are you disguising the women at all, or are you have to have five (with your shapeshift up) fully armed blind warrior women walk up on a town?

Oh, I don't want to just walk in. I intend to do a little recon first. Check out the size, tech level, and what not before I just waltz in.

Besides, I didn't think a swimsuit counted as "armoured up". Wink

I figured since Atlantis didn't even know about this world, no one would even know what a Blind Warrior Woman was.

Don't seem much of a threat at all. Just pathetic mortals attempting to scrounge a living. They pose little threat to me.

A'den turns to the Warrior Women, whispering "We will take the two guards at their entrance. I want them back at the airship. They may be able to provide valuable information. If not...well...perhaps their physiology will be more interesting."

The Plan:
A'den will use Deaden Senses on both Guards before dropping Globe of Silence over the two of them. At which point two of the Warrior Women will hit them with Net Guns, while the other two quickly move in to haul them off.

Then we hightail it back to the ship and lift off into the sky. Attempt to move high enough to not be noticed easily from the ground.

At the airship the guards will be relieved of all their belongings and tossed in a holding cell.

A'den will assume his true form, though much smaller so as not to take up an entire room. So same appearance but about 8 feet tall instead of 28.

"Greetings gentlemen. I see you have a grasp of some of my glorious language. Though perhaps something more familiar?" Switching to American or Spanish. "I have some questions I'd like to ask. You see, I'm not from around here." A'den grins menacingly.

These don't seem to be very good guards. They both fainted at the sight of your dragon form.

*facepalm*

"Humans..."

While they are out I will see if I can pick anything up through Telepathy. Otherwise I will assume the form of a middle aged man wearing a lab coat and spectacles and wait for them to wake up.

I never said they were human. Cool

"Mortals..." Rolling Eyes

If they aren't human, what is it that they look like?

"Orcish Cyborgs? Fascinating. The heavy shackles should restrain them."

((If they are not in them now, I will go in and do it now.))

"Have one brought to my lab. I'd like to see what makes these creatures tick."

With that, A'den happily strolls to his lab.

The two are quickly placed in heavy shackles, while one is taken into your lab for examination. What all are you looking for?

Most importantly I want to disable/remove any built in weapon systems I find. Any communication devices I find. A built in laser weapon might not be much of a threat to me, but they could do some damage to my ship.

Secondly I just want to see what type of cybernetics they are. See if there is anything new. Recognize a manufacturer maybe.

A'den is clearly hoping for some awesome revelation, but will probably be dissapointed at the workings of the lesser races.

Just a Mav bump.
