Cyber-Slig 07-08-2005 09:49 AM

CS : Product and Serial number? Oh emm... I forgot...

CS turns to Anni

CS : I don't remember any of those names, please stop mentioning them! I'm just here enforcing the law, if any of you don't like it, too bad, you either listen, or die

OOC : CS is starting to turn back

Munch's Master 07-08-2005 09:58 AM

ooc: This topic has become really hot in the last hourv or so!

IC:

Dek realised he was starting to have an effect. "Hurry up! If you don't then I'll have to have you demoted and reported to Scylla (I think this is how non-Sligs say it.) Now that violent transactions are ending, please confirm your identity so I can continue about my business and ensure you are correctly stationed."
He muttered again to Floyd "I just hope this confuses him enough to spark this mentioned old personaltiy in him back up."

Arthur just stood behind them ahgain "Yeah, do what the smart guy said!" He yelled over the crowd.

Cyber-Slig 07-08-2005 10:01 AM

CS : Smart guy? Look buddie, a retarded intern is smarter than him. And why is everyone against me anyway? What the hell have I done?

*CS looks at the crowd with confusion*

Munch's Master 07-08-2005 10:06 AM

Arthur now looked outraged. "Don't play the dumb guy with me metal guy, you tried to kill me for hitting a broken vendo! Then this lot came to stop you, then you attacked that mudokon and advanced on me with a gun! That's why everyone's against you, so I guess you're the real retarded intern!" Arthur yelled, almost turning red with frustration.

Cyber-Slig 07-08-2005 10:08 AM

CS : Why the hell would I shout at someone for breaking a vendo machine? I break them all the time. No bloody moolah in this factory. You're talkin' crap. All of you are. I'm ashamaed by you Anni, why would you be so against me like this, defending these idiots?

T-nex 07-08-2005 10:22 AM

Anni backed off a bit.

"YAY!!!!! You're back!!" She screamed with joy.

She ran over to Cyber-slig and hugged him. Then she let go.

"Um, You've turned back. I think the Vykkers did something to you... those scums... But I'm glad you're back." She said and smiled, "Now people, The show's over! You can leave now!"

She looked at the lot, ready to do stuff to CS.

"It's good to have you back. Hey, maybe you could help me with something..." she said pondering.

Munch's Master 07-08-2005 10:23 AM

ooc: Did anyone else just have a page saying something abotu an error when trying to move to a different page?

IC:

Arthur was getting mroe and more worked up "All the time! How? You just came here and tried to kill me! And now you suddenly act as if you know these guys all your life-wait, she's called Anni? How did you know her name?"

Dek began getting his chill pill tube out, he could see a few people, especially Arthur, would needthem before this was over.

big bro boogie 07-08-2005 10:27 AM

*Floyd relaxes and puts back his screwdriver.*

Floyd: "What's up with these people? Anyway, I'll check out that machine."

*Floyd walks up to the Expresso machine, and looks inside the hole where expresso cans normally pop out. He sees a can stuck in the opening.*

Floyd: "Ah, I see. There's a can stuck in the opening here. Now if I just slap it here the can should come out."

*Floyd slaps the machine right in the middle and can comes rolling out.*

Floyd: "I fixed it."

*Another can rolled out.*
Floyd: "Huh? What's up with that?"

*Soon every can inside the machine came rolling out.*

Floyd: "I think I'll report this as 'Bad machine'. Anyway, come and get your free expresso here!"

Munch's Master 07-08-2005 10:31 AM

"Finally, a drink." Arthur said, taking an expresso can and drinking it, then offrering Dekj cone, but he refused. "No my friend I'm not particularly keen on beverages that hype people up."

SArthur continued drinking the can, then turned back to Cyber Slig. "So what's up with you? You a schizophrenic?"

T-nex 07-08-2005 10:42 AM

"NO HE AINT!" Anni said, and turned to Arthur, "He's... I think the Vykkers did somthing to him. So leave him alone, you don't know how it is."

She grunted angrily, and looked at Arthur.

-----

OOC: Might aswell put Razer into the story.

Razer woke up from a deep nap, and yawned. He looked at the clock, and saw it was pretty late.

"Wow, I've never slept like this." He grinned.

Then he heard footsteps.

"So, when do we go back??" he heard a female voice ask in the distance.

Then two shapes became visible.

"Oh it's you." Razer mumbled and Turned around to walk away, but then Kix saw him.

"Hey!" She said.

"I don't have time for you, I'm busy." He said annoyed.

"With what? Sleeping?" Kix asked and laughed.

Dean was gonna ask her to calm down but then Razer raised his gun.

"Now you two-" He said, but then he saw they had walked away already.

He sighed, andput his gun down.

"Why me?" He asked, and walked away.

Munch's Master 07-08-2005 10:45 AM

Arthur looked at Anni in puzzlement. "What do you mean? You actually do know him? Well why was he perfectly happy to kill me a few minutes ago, but now he's fine? And Vykkers are alright, Dek here," *He pats Dek on the shoulder* "Helped heal a mudokon and a Big Bro Slig who were injured. So why is he like this? More to the point, WHO is he?"

big bro boogie 07-08-2005 10:51 AM

*Floyd hear's Arthur talking about Boogie*
Floyd: "Holy shite! I forgot about Boogie's pants. Err... I'll be heading up to the cafeteria."
*Floyd grabs a can of expresso and ran to the cafeteria.*
Floyd's thoughts: "Well, where could those pants be? Oh! There they are."

*Floyd headed up to the pants and dragged them back to Boogie.*

Boogie: "What took you so long?"
Floyd: "A fight with some Cyber Slig."
Boogie: "Ha-ha, nice try."
Floyd: "It's the truth, honest. I've got evidence. Follow me. Oh and could you carry Scrubby for a while? I'll give you some expresso cans for free."
Boogie: "Fair deal."

*Boogie climbes into his pants, and then makes Scruben sit on his back.*
*Floyd walkes up to the Expresso machine area, with Boogie following.*

Cyber-Slig 07-08-2005 10:54 AM

CS looked at Anni with confusion

CS : Emm... why are you hugging me? I haven't been anywhere, I was just lying in my room, watching TV with Fang. (OOC : He shut down because of this, too much electrical activity), and whatever your name is new slig, and your vykker boyfriend, I'm CS, I've been here for 2 years almost. And the other vykkers do stuff, the ones in the machine repair lab. I'd deal with them, but I need them for whenever something happens.

OOC : Oops, I meant Fang, not Freak.

Munch's Master 07-08-2005 11:05 AM

Arthur looked at him puzzled "2 years? Wow. What happened to you, where've you been, and who is Freak? By the wya my name's Arthur." He said, extending his hand.

~~~
Dek turned to see Floyd walking down the corridor and Boogie caryring Scruben with him. "Ah, my patients. How are you so far Boogie, and you Scruben?"

T-nex 07-08-2005 12:23 PM

OOC: He meant Fang, not Freak... Fang is CS's slog.

"Ooh... I don't know why i hugged... Maybe i was happy to see you.. Or a little excited that you didn't kill me..." She said, "Oh well anyways... You've been shut down again i guess... So the Vykkers probably found you and um... did stuff i guess..."

She shrugged and turned to arthur, then first then she noticed a Vykker was there. She got a shock and hid behind Cyber-slig.

"You! GET AWAY FROM ME!" She screamed.

Splat 07-08-2005 02:08 PM

ooc: Wow, it's less than 12 hours since I was last here and so much has been done!

Stivik was a little surprised when the mud that the robo-slig had been attacking came running round the corner and bashed into him.

He peeled himself off th florr just in time for Anni to come running into him from the other way, smacking him to the florr and leaving him rather dazed. He was just beginning to scrape himself back together when that idiot came running back round the corner and tripped over him.

He climbed to his feet and stood round the corner, watching them. His box was still on so he was recording the rather bizarre fight.

He was a little surprised when Dek came round the corner as they hadn't told him any vykkers were working here. Still, when Floyd offered free expresso to the room, he decided to move.
When Anni screamed at Dek he took his chance. He really hated that girl. And this robot-guy might be able to help him, as he couldn't find RG.

Stivik walked into the corridor and picked up an expresso. Then said to Dek. "Ignore her, she's a-uh... a bit... lost upstairs, if you get me. Old vykker experiment, she'd probably be better off back in the labs. I didn't know there were any vykkers working here; how long you been here?"

He spotted Arthur. "Hey, you better watch where you're going in future or you're gonna get yourself in trouble."

Gretin 07-08-2005 10:30 PM

OOC: Yeah, I suppose that's why there was that old rule about only posting once a day. Time-zone differences can be a bit annoying sometimes. ;)
Especially when we RPers from places all over the world, like England, America, Scotland, Netherlands, New Zealand, and any others that I may have forgotten right now. Anyway, now to try and get back in since I've been away for a few days.

IC:
Sefon:"Right, I'll be off now."
He walked out of the special barracks and started heading towards the stockyards again, he had a feeling that he would need to be outside soon.

_______________

Groll entered the cafeteria then stopped in surprise at the large group of people there. He instinctively raised the barrel on his rifle, without even thinking about it.

Groll:"What's going on here?"

He looks down and sees all the Expresso cans.

Groll:"Cripes, this place is a mess! This entire factory seems to have been havoc since before I came! What on Odd was I transferred here for?"

Munch's Master 07-09-2005 01:02 AM

Dek turned to Stivik
"Yes ser certainly does seem a bit quick to react to people without even getting to know them. But an experiment? And a female? Strange. Well, experiment or not, if she is working here now, then she should remain here unless any problems arise. Has anything strange happened with her, unusual behaviour for a mudokon, mannerisms, things like that? And I'm not actuallly working here, I came here as a request from my friend Arthur here to oeprate on his friends and help them recover. I then recieved word from my Labs that I was fired for missing an important meeting and, here I am now, in need of a job. You don't know where the owner of this factory is do you?"

Arthur started drinking another expresso can. He looked at Stivik "I was trying to get away from a mad cyborg trying to kill me, so excuse me if I was too panicked to look where I was going. You're like Cyber was a minute ago, enforcing all rules even if they are pretty pointless."

kjjcarpenter 07-09-2005 01:42 AM

Johnson was still wlking in the wrong direction. He had wlked so far that he was in a part of Rupture Farms that was made of rocks (at least it looked like it) and moss.
Johnson:"Great, were am I know. This area isn't on the map."
Johnson then threw the map to the ground and sat down. He the noticed a door.
Johnson:"What the hell?"
He walked over to it and opened it, all dust fell everywere and there was a loud roar from within.

Splat 07-09-2005 02:41 AM

Stivik: "Don't take it so hard. But there are a lot of sligs out here that would ahve had your legs off after that. How long have you been in the military."
He turns back to Dek. "Yeah, i can't begin to say all the wierd thingsshe's gotten herself into. I've seen her talking to animals, she's been painting flowers over the walls. Just before I came here she got herself in a whole heap of trouble with another slig here. Nick, his name was. You should go talk to him."

ooc: Wow, that last line looked just like something out of a computer game. to much legend of Zelda. Stivik doesn't realise Nick has made up with Anni yet.

MudokonGodWorshipMe! 07-09-2005 07:11 AM

I'll join!

Name: Charderavs
race: Slig ( i only have first two abe games)
Title: Overseer(beating up all the mudokons. and all the other things sligs do. )
Bio: Charderavs( or Char) is a lean mean pant wearing machine. he is very loyal and likes guns and female sligs. As he is an over seer his pants have 4 legs instead of two

Splat 07-09-2005 08:30 AM

That's really not much of a bio. Go back and look at other peoples. I would also recommend you read back on the story a little. The boss, Arnie, is unlikely to hire a guy just so he can beat mudokons.

If you haven't already (and no offence if you have) you should go and read up on the RPG rules. (http://www.oddworldforums.net/showthread.php?t=11928)

MudokonGodWorshipMe! 07-09-2005 10:15 AM

changed it. can i join Dripi?

Munch's Master 07-09-2005 12:40 PM

OOC: Splat, was Stivik talking to Arthur here? :
:

Stivik: "Don't take it so hard. But there are a lot of sligs out here that would ahve had your legs off after that. How long have you been in the military."
I got confused by it cause I was the last guy to talk to Stivik but Arthur has never been in the military.

IC: Dek listened to Stivik. "Nick? Hmm, what exactly happened between him and Anni?"

Jarnww 07-09-2005 01:26 PM

Sev helped himself to some expresso and stacked some in his pants compartment.

Sev:"Waste not want not! :)"

He took a look at the Cybernetic Slig and shrugged. He didn't understand what history he had with his coworkers, but he didn't really care at the moment. At least he wasn't killing anyone.

These mudokons and sligs seemed to have their own special secrets, and Sev wanted to know some of them. But for now, he was going to the Rec-Room to get some shut eye.

Sev programmed his name into the LED sign on the side of the bunk. He took off his mechanical pants, gun and mask and got into the bed and fell asleep.

Splat 07-09-2005 01:27 PM

ooc: Yeah, sorry MM. By military I (or he) meant just... working. For the Cartel. You know.

Stivik: "They had a fight, I think she was bugging him, like I said, she was doing some wierd things, and he attacked her. Nothing out of the ordinary but the boss here is..." He glanced around at the several people still in the room. "Is not big on violent punishments. A bit easy going. He seems to think it's all easier to stop the sligs beating the slaves, rather than letting them get on with it and have them do it for no real reason."

Munch's Master 07-09-2005 02:00 PM

ooc: Ta for clearing that up Splat.

IC:
Dek shrugged "Well, if it gets good business and keeps the workers in line, I don't see what's wrong in it. I personally don't like that method but, if it works well, nobody can critiscize it."

Arthur thought a bit, then answered Stivik " Well I started off at Slig Barracks #1034 where I did a bit in the mudokon capture forces, but I found it too much work so I filed a transfer to the airborne Vykkers Labs and I went there, this was waay before Munch the terrorist. I then got moved because of laziness and failure to stop a riuot, and sent to FeeCo where I worked as a Cargo Delivery supervisor. Ah, good times. Anyway I worked there happily for a while, but got sent here because I was still too lazy, so here I am now, first day of work here and still without a sleep. So I'd say I've ben working for roughly...geez, 20 years. I'm getting old." He answered Stivik.

Gretin 07-09-2005 09:14 PM

Groll walked furthur into the cafeteria and saw Dek.

Groll:"A vykker? What are you doing here?"

Groll had only seen vykkers once before in his life, and the memory wasn't pleasant... ;)

Sefon reached the stockyards and started looking upwards. He though there might be something coming shortly...

MudokonGodWorshipMe! 07-09-2005 10:09 PM

hello? can i join?

Munch's Master 07-10-2005 01:13 AM

OOC: If you want to join just post your character's full bio and start RPing.

IC:

Dek turned to Groll
"Oh, I'm only here performing a couple of medical operations for Arthur's 2 friends, but seeing as i just got fired from my labs, I may have to seek a job here."


OOC: Sorry for the short post, but I had to help this guy join and answer Gretin's guy so it turned out shorter than hoped.

Splat 07-10-2005 02:06 AM

ooc: MGWM, before you start RPing check up on the RPG rules and read some of the backstory. Get an idea of what this thing is about and look out for problems with certain members so you can try to not copy them. A lot of new people here break some of the rules so make sure you know what you're doing before you start.

Stivik shrugged. (To Arthur) "Nothing to rough then? That would be it. I worked at Vykker's Labs for a while. It was all a bit hectic, too many animals running around. And at Feeco. Guarding Dripik's Slig Barracks. When Abe got in it all went a bit wrong. They killed some of us and transfered others. I only moved here 2 days ago and you're right. i haven't had much sleep either."
He drains his expresso and picks another can off the floor while secretly taking a recording of the broken machine, throwing perfectly good (if you ignore the use-by date) cans of profit-bringing coffee around for all the world to steal!

Munch's Master 07-10-2005 02:20 AM

ooc: 2 days have passed since Stivik arrived?! No way it must be more!?

IC:
Arthur picked up one of the expressos, drank it, and answered "yeah, nothing too tough, except the capture corps. Especially if the muds have got weapons, then it can be a problem. Trying ta capture a mudokon while he runs around swiniging a huge club ain't easy. And yeah, I know about trouble at Vykkers, those damn fuzzles get everywhere. But I never knew you were at FeeCo or Vykkers, which ones?"

big bro boogie 07-10-2005 05:12 AM

OOC:
:

ooc: 2 days have passed since Stivik arrived?! No way it must be more!?

Wha!? That means by the time Scruben can see again, we're at W@RF V.8!

--IC--
Floyd: "Hey, you're talking about Vykkers Base Labs? I've worked there before as a machine checker. Then I got transferred here. So umm, what section did you work at?"
(ooc:He talks to Stivik)

---

Scruben: "Ok, so where are we?"
Boogie: "In some busy place. Wait. Yo Dek."
*Boogie walks over to Dek.*

Boogie: "No important body here knows that you're fired, does any? Well, I bet that if you tell The Boss, you were... head medical officer back at... wherever you came from, He'd hire you for sure. Wanna go find him?"

dripik 07-10-2005 06:23 AM

OOC: I'm back. I see I missed a lot, but I've read myself through it. I'm not going anywhere in the next two weeks, so I'll be here and post.

Welcome to W@RF, MGWM! As Splat already said, read the rules, learn from others and you'll be OK.

Welcome to W@RF, Jarnww! You're already doing fine, as I see it. Keep it up. (Do you know Republic Commando by chance? Your character's name is kind of familiar.)

And welcome back, Cyber-Slig!

:

Characters like T-nex's, Havoc's, maybe Dripik's, will have seen the old CS.
Well, It would be strange if I never saw CS, since I'm here since the start of the W@RF series. The things I saw here in the past few years... :D

----------------------------------------------

RG-49 arrived at the Board Room. He ran inside to the Glukkons and the Slig.

RG-49: "RG-49, ready for duty, Boss."

He looks at the new Glukkon and his Slig, suspiciously.

Arnie: "Ah, RG-49. At least someone was wondering where are we."

Otto: "Like they care about our whereabouts."

Arnie: Well, you never know. What's going on, RG?"

RG-49: "The production is surely not going on, Boss. Current Efficiency: 45 percent in separate parts of the plant. The malfunction mentioned earlier led to a boiler breakdown, two injured employees."

Arnie: "Injured employees? Are they safe?"

RG-49: "I know little about their current conditions. My main task is to protect you from any hazards."

Arnie: "OK, then. So, back to the topic. Carl, I've seen a lot of this factory, but I never saw the thing you're asking for."

T-nex 07-10-2005 07:09 AM

Anni, shook her head, as she could that Stivik was already getting to be good friends with the Vykker.

"Now there's two of them..." she muttered, and tightened her grip on CS.

-----

Kix and Dean were heading towards the Cafeteria, and saw the bunch of new and old employees. But one of them caught her attention.

"Hi!!" Kix yelled, and ran over to CS, pushing Stivik aside on her way(OOC: Couldn't resist :p).

A quick "uh sorry!" slipped her mouth and then she turned to CS.

"How have you been? I haven't seen you in a pretty long time." she said and smiled.

Dean had made his way to Kix and saw the big half-slig half-robot.(OOC: I don't remember if Dean has already met CS...)

"Ehm... Hello." He said.
-----

Razer was heading inside the restroom, and walked to his bed. He picked up a package from under his bed.

"Oh yeah... I've been missing you guys..." he said and hugged the pack.

He opened the box, and found several cigarettes, but they didn't contain tobacco. He took one of them, put it to his mouth, and lit it.

Cyber-Slig 07-10-2005 07:15 AM

CS : You people are insane. I was only relaxing yesterday, and today I come to find it that the world is ending, or something. I'll be in my lounge, if anyone needs me...

*CS marched down the corridors and came to his room*

CS : What the...

There was some other slig sitting in here, with Fang

CS : Hey pal, this is my room, care to leave, or shall I force you?

Slig : This is my... ummm... right away Sir.

CS sat down, and called Fang over. Fang disobeyed. He was in the corner shivering.

CS : Not you too... *slaps himself on the head*

T-nex 07-10-2005 07:30 AM

"Ah don't leave me!!" Anni said, as she wanted to do evrything to get away from the vykker, "Stivik, Nick is looking for you... wanted to chat to you or something."

She didn't care to look at stivik while she was speaking, but then she ran away.

"Wonder where he is..." She said to herself, but then a smell caught her.

She entered the rest-room, and saw Razer smoking.

"You know... Smoking can be very bad for your health... Thats how most glukkons die. I don't even think you're allowed to smoke in here." she said.

Razer almost got a shock, but only laughed when he saw Anni.

"You want one?" he asked, took one of the cigarettes, andraised the hand towards her.

"Ehm no thanks, but i apreciate that you asked." she answered, and thought, "Not really."

She sniffed the air a bit.

"Hey wait. This isn't tobacco.. this is..." she said but then she shut up.

"Yea so what... take one... Are you afraid??" He asked and laughed scornfully, "Always doing what the other tell you?"

At this point she got angry.

"I'll show you..." she said, and took one of the joints.

*duhn duhn duhn*

MudokonGodWorshipMe! 07-10-2005 07:55 AM

OOC:where am i Dripik sir?

PerfectKirbyJr 07-10-2005 09:27 AM

Hey, the more the merrier, right? I'll join.

Name: Snipe
Species: Slig
Age: 16 (human years)
Job: Rookie Security Guard
Personality: Complete Mud hater. Usually dosen't concern himself with muds, but he CAN get harsh if it is called for. New employee, so dosen't really have a lot of experiance.
Appearance: Awesome shiney metal pants, but instead of a shotgun, he has 2 pistols.

Munch's Master 07-10-2005 09:49 AM

ooc: MGWM, you can start arriving in the factory by train and then move about from the station, that's how most of us enter. Same for you PerfectKirbyJr, presuming drpi lets you join (which he should, as he's a ncie guy)

IC:
Dek turned to Floyd briefly "Vykers Base Labs? As I said, that's were I just came here from. You were a machine checker? Hmm, I don't recognize you, but it was a big place." He turned back to Boogie "Find the boss? I suppsoe I could do with doing that. Does this factory have any sort of business section: Glukkon offices? Boardroom? Meeting room? As I'd imagine Arnie would be there."
