007: AMAs, Third Round

[tarnishedavenger]

So, we've got a load of new people, and that means it's time for me to do the only thing it feels like I get on these comms to do anymore: AMAs.

For you new people, I find it helps when we get together and explain a little bit about ourselves, any powers we have, and our skillsets. That way we know what we're starting with and what we can build off of. So, please, come and introduce yourselves and be willing to answer questions.

We all had different mods in Freelancer. It was an experimental program, so they were testing a lot of different mods with different people.

Ghost stealthing isn't experimental. [Kerrigan shakes her head.] Doesn't matter anyway. You'd give me away, so scratch the marine backup idea.

[bothbarrels]

[ North chuckles. He's not offended. ]

Yeah, you didn't even know the armor was purple before you said that.

[zerg_rush]

Could be brown and khaki and you'd still give me away.

[Shrug.

She's not trying to offend him--it's just that no one's stealthier than a ghost.]

[bothbarrels]

It's fine, I'm a sniper anyway. I'm usually a ways away from the action.

[ At least, he was until Freelancer kept sending him into the fray more and more. But that's beside the point. ]

[zerg_rush]

Oh yeah? What caliber?

[It's not a challenge, it's shop talk. Kerrigan is also a sniper, because it turns out the thing ghosts get used for the most is assassinations.]

[bothbarrels]

14.5 millimeter. In armor I can dual wield them, though that's more of a party trick.

[zerg_rush]

[Kerrigan nods. Pretty standard sniper caliber.]

I usually go with 25 millimeter HE, but I'll kit out with something lighter if I'm not likely to have to crack any armor.

[A shoulder-fired 25mm weapon is insane, incidentally.]

[bothbarrels]

[ North gives a low whistle. ]

Very impressive. What's the longest you've spent in the nest?

[zerg_rush]

Honestly? I don't remember.

[Memory wipes are a bitch.]

I mostly wasn't looking for targets of opportunity, anyway.

["I'm an assassin."]

[bothbarrels]

Oh, well...that's understandable then.

I was often the lookout, on my team, so I've spent a lot of time in nests.

[zerg_rush]

What's your record? And how bad did you smell when you finally came down?

[bothbarrels]

[ North laughs. ]

Bad. It was about seven days.
