Posting Times in this post are GMT+3 Taffer: Hi all! Sorry for absence, still working on making a backup of Defiance Wiki site which might go offline soon. As for Archer's weapon — it looks like VBI PA-12 Haar but acts like Particle Ultimag, increasing its damage with charged shot. 8 May 2016 at 23:29
Taffer: It also has a built-in shield of sort like a Pulverizer has. Many NPCs in Defiance game have shields without having an EGO so that's not a big deal if it's a separate device or built in the weapon. So it's not too much away from what we have in Defiance. 8 May 2016 at 23:32 *
Sandy Bell: Sandy takes out her sonic screwdriver, dismantling all the sentry-bots in seconds, reveals herself as a Time Lord, then gets into her Tardis, goes into the past, making sure the Votans go to Mars instead of Earth. The End! Until the War of the Worlds!
9 May 2016 at 00:48
Sandy Bell: Despite Archer's witticisms, my question is a valid one: Do we continue with Defiance, now that the show is dead and the game is going to die soon too I fear, so no new outside material, or just start a new general Sci Fi Forum?
9 May 2016 at 00:50
Taffer: I'd rather continue with Defiance, but not strictly limited to it. We did like that before so I see no reason while we should change that policy. I don't think that disabling one sentry bot with two charged shots is against the rules either. 9 May 2016 at 01:33
Sandy Bell: I am so lost in this battle, I decided to remove Sandy from it! Have fun guys! Going to enjoy Mother's Day instead! Also, now someone else needs to incorporate Archer's shouts into their posts!
9 May 2016 at 01:33 *
Sandy Bell: BTW, the thing about the Sentry-bot's rear exhaust ports and the huge explosion afterwards is true to the Fallout 4 game! Not a spoiler, just a helpful hint! And u can disable an NPC with a toothpick if the writer wants Taffer, I know that!
9 May 2016 at 01:46 *
Chase Lonehart: I'm confused by why Belle thinks the game is "dying soon". But when it comes to the RP, I don't see an issue of using outside influences. I mean, when it comes to most of the stuff about Indogenes, I've borrowed from other sources. 9 May 2016 at 03:20
Chase Lonehart: So, borrowing from other sources shouldn't be a problem. After all, a lot of modern stories borrow from other existing stories. 9 May 2016 at 03:20
Atticus Batman: I agree with Chase and Taffer we stick with the Defiance universe as always. But it is alright to borrow elements from others if it fits and makes sense. Like we have always done. 9 May 2016 at 07:56
Volodja Uljanov: Just like old fart Marcus Porcius Cato, I have to say once again - we can borrow as long we have a valid explanation how these items we use, got into our story. BTW - name Porcius is probably derived from the word "porcus" 9 May 2016 at 08:23 *
Volodja Uljanov: which means "pig" and that old fart actually was a swine indeed when suggesting that all old and weak slaves and animals should be sold to neighbours. So he was practically praising an ancient used car salesman mentality. 9 May 2016 at 08:29 *
Kaj Oenfer: Yes and it looks like Kaj will have to change the plan slightly. So time for me to finish my post and submit it to add to the drama.
9 May 2016 at 08:42
Kaj Oenfer: added 9 May 2016 at 08:57
Kaj Oenfer: Oh and Volo check your messages.
9 May 2016 at 09:04
Kaj Oenfer: Btw I got a base copy of Fallout 4 for my XBone yesterday and I enjoyed it for the time I played it last night. I'd be playing it right now but my lil bro bought my gaming headset for it and gave me the 8$ I was short on so I could get the game, 9 May 2016 at 09:40 *
Kaj Oenfer: so he feels that entitles him to play my XBone when I am not and he beat me to it tonight. So it is his turn until he goes to bed, and truthfully I do think it is fair and makes sense. Especially since I still mostly play my Xbox 360. LOL 9 May 2016 at 09:41 *
Kaj Oenfer: And although I like pretty much all of the new stuff in this Fallout, there are some things from the previous ones that I think should have been incorporated instead of left out. For instance I am missing the challenge system from New Vegas. I liked that. 9 May 2016 at 09:43 *
Volodja Uljanov: Added some pressure to Taffer now with my short but hopefully tense enough post. 9 May 2016 at 14:51 *
Kaj Oenfer: Saw that. I just added a video to my post, as I thought that Bon Jovi song was fitting at the moment. Now back to Fallout 4 for an hour or so until I am too tired to play and go to bed instead. 9 May 2016 at 15:02 *
Sandy Bell: OK, just reading with my morning coffee, but did Iri open the front door (as Chase wrote) or did Archer blew through it and collapsed it (as Atticus wrote) is a bit confusing, so somebody who has a character needs to rectify the two - please!
9 May 2016 at 15:16 *
Sandy Bell: Managed to got back to the "Romancing the Stone" theme, as Sandy slid down into the ravine because of a rain forest storm, although hers was not nearly as much fun as the one in the movie, but that was one of my favorite scenes of the movie!
9 May 2016 at 15:26
Volodja Uljanov: I know. Volodja should have been sliding next and land into proper place as it was in "Romancing the stone"
But I guess that he won't be missed. 9 May 2016 at 16:37 *
Sandy Bell: LOL! Well, I think Lena and Marcel are still in flight, so no post for her (it would be a single line - Lena appeared deep in thought and was silent during the whole flight), so will wait on timing and when then land to post for her! CYA!
9 May 2016 at 16:50
Chase Lonehart: If I made an error with the door lock thing, let me know and I'll fix it. 9 May 2016 at 23:08
Taffer: I went on with Kaj's version as it was written earlier and suits Volo's and Sandy's contributions as well. Chase, Volo have already tricked the base inhabitants into opening their door, 9 May 2016 at 23:26
Taffer: but the entrance collapsed due to the explosion, trapping Taffer, Volo and Archer inside. 9 May 2016 at 23:26
Chase Lonehart: Okay, I'll fix it. 10 May 2016 at 00:01
Chase Lonehart: Fixed. 10 May 2016 at 01:23
Vo Kshaa: Got the maps of the facility per Volo's request. Hope they fit and don't stray too much from what Belle has in mind. The third map the one from "From Cradle to Grave" mission which actually contains stasis pods so I just had to include it too. 11 May 2016 at 01:30
Vo Kshaa: And the way Vo didn't remember he had them all along should really fit the state of mind he currently has. 11 May 2016 at 01:31
Taffer: For Archer - The main entrance has collapsed from the explosion, trapping Taffer, Archer and Volodja inside and everyone else outside. Sandy was thrown to the river and found an alternate entrance through the sewer. 11 May 2016 at 01:55
Taffer: Volo sneaked ahead deeper into the base to meet Sandy while Taffer met Archer at the entrance and was thinking on making some noise to distract the guards from finding the other team members infiltrating. He also concerned if Archer has a gas mask with her 11 May 2016 at 01:58
Archer, Frankie J: The soldier answered, "Yesir. What's your plan?" Tapping the bag secured to her back. 11 May 2016 at 02:29
Kaj Oenfer: Alright I made a post and hope I did a good job at tying everyone's posts together so it works alright, but will change whatever I need to.
11 May 2016 at 12:50 *
Sandy Bell: FYI Volo, at least one of those round rooms has to be a nuclear missile silo I think with a second one off screen through Vault 111 which is not on the map, but on Sandy's level down one of those halls that just dead ends!
11 May 2016 at 13:21
Sandy Bell: Hi, Atticus! Checking if I got the right Constantine name now, but trying to integrate them more into the story! Got to go - Daughter has an awards ceremony this morning at her HS - she's graduating with "distinction" (4.0)!
11 May 2016 at 14:02 *
Atticus Batman: Attila is the boy and Atika the girl. LOL 11 May 2016 at 14:12
Atticus Batman: Anyway Sandy, it looks like you have it right or did last time I looked. So I am going to go try to get in an hour of Fallout 4 before bed.
11 May 2016 at 14:24
Chase Lonehart: Wait, did I get my post wrong? I thought Sandy called on Chase's expertise for manuevering underground. Did I make a hiccup? 11 May 2016 at 20:22
Volodja Uljanov: I have a post in mind but I am too sleepy. Good night, good people.
Tried to write but got stuck after few lines, so I better do it with fresh head. 11 May 2016 at 22:46 *
Taffer: Archer - "The plan is pretty simple," Taffer replied, "We move forward, making the impression that we're the main strike force. We both have long-range charging weapons, so let's time our shots. You charge, I shoot, then I charge, you shoot. 12 May 2016 at 00:45
Taffer: "We'll keep them at long distance so they could not use their grenades or flamethrowers or whatever close-range weapons they have. Be ready to switch to close-range when we check side rooms." 12 May 2016 at 00:46
Taffer: The next room they entered contained five automatic turrets which Taffer had successfully disabled by sneaking behind the line of defense but once the turrets went off, two side doors opened and two sentry bots and several synths appeared from them. 12 May 2016 at 00:49
Taffer: Taffer will shoot down the first one coming to his hiding spot, then Archer could come to the scene
12 May 2016 at 00:50
Chaos: Is this site still going? Sorry if I'm interrupting anything, I just thought for sure Defi would be dead 12 May 2016 at 04:26
Chase Lonehart: Yeah, Chaos. It's still going.
12 May 2016 at 06:09
Volodja Uljanov: I used pictures from "Rage" because they suited to illustrate Volodja's actions. 12 May 2016 at 11:22 *
Attila Constantine: I remember that game. It had so much hype that I reserved it soon enough to get the free upgrade to the special edition. However it only took a few days to beat and has no replay value. Not to mention the supposed Co-op was complete garbage. 12 May 2016 at 14:04
Attila Constantine: However I did enjoy the weapons, especially the boomerang thing and it was fun for the first play-through. However as every play through is identical and there is no customization it lost the fun factor upon completion.
Still better than GUN though. LOL 12 May 2016 at 14:06
Attila Constantine: The enemy AI in Rage was also great the way they would favor their ass if I shot them there!
12 May 2016 at 14:10 *
Attila Constantine: I got nuthin.
Another words my mental magic eightball says, "Brain cloudy with a chance of freezing up. Try again at a later time."
12 May 2016 at 14:29 *
Lady Christianna: It's OK Chase, I was just thinking the climbing down thing was Chase's forte, & he was supposed to get them down the ravine to the sewer entrance not into the raging river below, but I had Sandy make sense of it - big question, what next? You're up front! 12 May 2016 at 16:37 *
Lady Christianna: Another group post, as I really didn't have enough for any one post! But it worked! LOL! And oh yes Chaos, the Defiance RPG is alive & kicking despite the fact the TV series is dead & the game is dying (in my opinion)! We like the Defiance world!
12 May 2016 at 17:50 *
Volodja Uljanov: Hi. Have to think how to integrate Volodja into the situation. And Chaos - we will keep the world alive. 12 May 2016 at 17:59
Archer, Frankie J: So Archer drew two guns. In the right hand she grabbed her Pulse from its dropleg holster. From the front of her vest she drew her SIG Sauer. 13 May 2016 at 05:28
Archer, Frankie J: As Taffer disfigured the first sentrybot, the other was alarmed and began to traverse toward the threat. The synthetics however acted more cautious. 13 May 2016 at 05:38
FJA: hello, Chaos. 13 May 2016 at 05:51
FJA: Taffer-- lemme think and i'll include more tmro 13 May 2016 at 05:53
Kaj Oenfer: Looks like it's a good thing that I did an Atticus post before working on Kaj's, as you guys just gave me more to work with. LOL 13 May 2016 at 14:27 *
Kaj Oenfer: And how about the Atticus post of using a song from Sweeney todd and a song re-used in the fallout series? LOL 13 May 2016 at 14:29
Kaj Oenfer: Am I correct in thinking that Belle's description of the tunnel means it is only 6 foot tall? If so I guess Kaj is crouch walking. LOL that's a funny image! A purple giant carrying heavy weaponry and crouch walking in a sewer while doing so. 13 May 2016 at 14:33 *
Kaj Oenfer: Alright now that Kaj slightly enlightened Vo on an old military program, I am heading to bed. LOL And I loved the humor in Volo's post!
13 May 2016 at 14:59 *
Archer, Frankie J: Perhaps the soldier's most dangerous weapon in that time was the terrain. She'd found a funnel to force the enemies into. From some place in darkness they detected a short whistle and a whispered "come here." Hesitantly, the synthetics went toward the anom 13 May 2016 at 19:46
Archer, Frankie J: anomaly. The leader of them bravely investigated the source of the noise. However when it got there all it found was a child's doll. Picking it up it whispered "I see you" in the synth's hand. 13 May 2016 at 19:59
Archer, Frankie J: Archer's overwhelming violence of force and surprising explosion of presence panicked the targets. Instead of fighting they instantly wanted to run. They crashed into each other attempting to break away from the scariness of Archer's attack. 13 May 2016 at 20:06
Sandy Bell: Ok, have fun! Erika and Belle are in the pods, so if u want to release them feel free, just let me write the their reactions at being released! Oh, u might want to stop the Doomsday Device too! Bwa HA ha!
14 May 2016 at 20:10 *
Volodja Uljanov: Welcome Pedrocz 14 May 2016 at 22:39
Volodja Uljanov: Volodja had his fun with the bomb. Hopefully I didn't messed things up.
14 May 2016 at 23:47 *
Sandy Bell: Finders keepers, losers weepers! Glad u had fun Volo, but Sandy is still going lecture u about coming down alone without warning! LOL!
15 May 2016 at 00:23
Volodja Uljanov: I will have to read that in morning. It's a night in Europe and I should sleep. Good night/day
Hopefully my post makes sense. 15 May 2016 at 00:25 *
Vo Kshaa: Got Archer, Taffer and Vo to the vault too. 15 May 2016 at 02:53
Chase Lonehart: Welcome, Pedrocz.
15 May 2016 at 04:30
Atticus Batman: Umm why is Atika, the comms and computer person working with the bomb instead of her brother Attila, the "experimental" tech engineer who minors in bombs? Or did I miss something? 15 May 2016 at 15:42 *
Volodja Uljanov: Probably a little error which is fixable. 15 May 2016 at 15:55 *
Sandy Bell: Ummmmmm - OOPS! Fixing it now Atticus! It's fixed now! BTW, that whole Doomsday device was an urban legend during the Cold War, although I made up the connection with the Masons as a power elite, another urban legend, and how it would work!
15 May 2016 at 16:28 *
Volodja Uljanov: I know. DD is a hypothetical weapon, designed to destroy life on Earth and is used in lot of films. Probably a creation of mass hysteria and conspiracy theories. 15 May 2016 at 16:44 *
Erika Widowmaker: Lost my post when my computer got unplugged and I have a rotten battery, so have to post later! Esp. painful after all that Halo game research! Bye!
15 May 2016 at 17:32 *
Chase Lonehart: Sorry to hear that Belle. Take as much time as you need.
16 May 2016 at 00:06
Volodja Uljanov: New post might be even better 16 May 2016 at 12:00
Attila Constantine: Hopefully I tied it all together alright with my post about the Constantines' contributions. And who knows, Erika. Perhaps my post will give you an idea to add to what you already had in mind. 16 May 2016 at 14:16 *
Attila Constantine: BTW sorry about not posting last night but got caught up in Fallout 4 and by the time I finally realized what time it was, I decided to just pop in long enough to read up on what I missed, before bed. Hopefully this post made up for the delay a little.
16 May 2016 at 14:21 *
Attila Constantine: Both songs came to mind as I finished my post, both are fitting, I like both, and couldn't decide which to use sooo.... I chose BOTH! Never settle for one when you can have TWO! 16 May 2016 at 14:46
Belle Starr: Medical complication! Off to Doctor's appointment! Hopefully able to write later!
16 May 2016 at 21:00
Volodja Uljanov: I cross my fingers and keep them that way for awhile. Take your time, Belle. 16 May 2016 at 21:06 *
Sandy Bell: OK, Doctor loaded me up up with some pain killer, cortisone shots in my lower left back that knocked me out for 12 hours, but I'm feeling better now (3am my time), so going to write a short Sandy post, then the longer "awakening" one with coffee later!
17 May 2016 at 10:54
Sandy Bell: OK, super tired but not sleepy, so going to start down my long road to becoming a Valium junkie (just prescribed but something I said I'd NEVER take) and force myself to sleep! Sandy's post is finished, and I'll do Erika's with coffee later!
17 May 2016 at 12:18
Atticus Batman: Never had Valium. Although I definitely know about Vicodin! Dentist had me take it when I had two wisdom teeth removed a few years back! Boy was I tired and loopy! LOL Didn't seem to dull the pain and discomfort when I ended up with dry sockets though.
17 May 2016 at 12:36 *
Belle Starr: Got caught up in your Fallout 4 post Atticus, but be sure and look at the pictures in Belle Starr's Character Description revise here! OTB (off to bed)!
17 May 2016 at 13:00
Erika Widowmaker: Okay, since nobody intervened the awakening with a conflict, the rest of the complex is now empty, beyond just robots & sentry guns, and all data is erased, but there is a forgotten old synth prototype janitor named Nick somewhere keeping it clean!
17 May 2016 at 16:35 *
Belle Starr: Chase, not sure what you had in mind by saying the countdown was in days instead of minutes, but I'm going to use that fact indirectly in my post! Bwa HA ha! Now, since I never played the game, to research Halo - AGAIN! *sigh*
17 May 2016 at 16:44
Erika Widowmaker: Still working on Erika's post! This post is doomed! Just lost two paragraphs for no reason! I'm going to finish this post if it takes all day! Lucky it's my last day of my break, and I've been left to my lonesome!
17 May 2016 at 17:55 *
Volodja Uljanov: Excellent post btw. 17 May 2016 at 20:09 *
Erika Widowmaker: Now read it - it gets better! Bwa HA ha! Proofed and finished! I'm FREE! CYA! Oh, and TYVM for the compliment Volo!
17 May 2016 at 20:41 *
Belle Starr: New pictorial series I started under "Character Description: Belle Starr", called Belle Starr in Alternate Realities! Hope you enjoy it! I like it there as there are references to at least two of them in our stories!
17 May 2016 at 22:17 *
Chase Lonehart: Belle - I wasn't sure of how long the countdown timer was for, or if it had been running since Belle and Erika were put in the pods. 17 May 2016 at 23:22
Chase Lonehart: However, I recalled a few films that involved nukes with countdown timers that had what's called a Dead Man Switch, where someone would have to have to push a button to reset the timer after a certain period of time, unless their dead. 17 May 2016 at 23:24
Chase Lonehart: From what I know, it was primarily for mutually assured destruction, in case that if the Russians fired nukes at the U.S., and there was no one left alive to retaliate with a return fire. 17 May 2016 at 23:26
Chase Lonehart: I figured that was the case with the timers, as someone probably would have to reset the timer while checking on Belle and Erika. If I am wrong on this assumption, feel free to let me know so I can fix it. 17 May 2016 at 23:26
Chase Lonehart: Belle - BTW, when Erika is choking Iri, is she wearing gloves? I mean, I know Belle and Erika are wearing the same outfit, but I'm not sure if Erika is wearing gloves or not. 17 hours ago *
Belle Starr: I would say no to Erika wearing gloves, but how kinky IS Iri? LOL!
15 hours ago
Chase Lonehart: Well, I was thinking as I was reading your post, "Wait... If Erika is choking Iri barehanded, would the Indogene experience erotic asphyxiation for the first time?" Seriously, it's one of those things I just had to ask. 14 hours ago
Chase Lonehart: It sucks for me because now I've got to figure out what it would be like for her at that particular moment. 14 hours ago
Atticus Batman: There is also the fact that most Indogenes come off as germiphobes and Irathiants are considered an unclean race by pretty much all others. So there is that as well. Is Iri that germaphobic though? 12 hours ago *
Belle Starr: Yep, reread Erika's post,and it even says she is glove-less as opposed to when she was Erika-117 and had armored gloves! BTW, I never have played Halo, did I capture at least the flavor of it, or not? Sure did a LOT of research on it!
9 hours ago
Belle Starr: OK, going to give Taffer and Chase a chance to respond to current events, so... maybe a short Lena post!
9 hours ago
Lena Marr: However, I can't find in our NPC list the name of the AI that currently runs Red Deer! Anybody want to help me out -PUHLEEEEZE! OK, found the name Esthete under Red Deer! YEA ME!
9 hours ago *
Lena Marr: Morning Volo - Didn't Marcel remove one of Micor Newlo's hands for touching Lena inapproppriately? If so, it's not mentioned in his NPC description!
9 hours ago
Volodja Uljanov: He actually did. The right one, I remember. Marcel asked to see his ring and then SLASH! And good morning. 9 hours ago *
Chase Lonehart: Actually, Atticus, Indogenes are actually immune to germs and diseases, hence the reason why most of them are doctors, and is also the reason why we never see Doc Yewll wearing mask during the Season 1 episode "If I Ever Leave This World Alive." 7 hours ago
Chase Lonehart: But as far back as the introduction to Iri in the RP, I had to explain why we see them mostly covered up in the show is that their skin is basically part of their sex organs, and that skin-on-skin contact alone can cause arousal. 7 hours ago
Chase Lonehart: This is implied in Season 2's "Putting The Damage On", as we see Lev lightly head butting Doc Yewll in an intimate way. I know that in the show, they have Indogenes covered so to cut down on the makeup appliances, but an in-universe reason was necessary. 7 hours ago
Chase Lonehart: I've even had to compensate for Eren's glovelessness and her sleeves pushed up, with me having to say that the least sensitive parts of an Indogene are their hands and feet (which could allow for them to touch things without having to worry). 6 hours ago
Vo Kshaa: Added a little funny moment for Vo as he tried to introduce Archer to Belle but realized he didn't know her first name till now. 8 minutes ago
Vo Kshaa: "Archer",he introduced the powergirl of the group and immediately scratched his head as he thought he never heard her first name."Excuse my curiosity, is it your last name or a nickname? And may we call you by your first name from now if it's not a secret? 7 minutes ago
