this was originally going to be a pm to Leo, but Shadow asked me to put it up OOC.. so here goes..
@ leowulf you're completely right.. I was kind of looking for a fight. I have a long standing dislike of a certain breed of roleplayers who consider "roleplaying" being as pissy and unlikeable as they possibly can simply because it serves their ego to cause a stir. having said that.. I unfairly lumped you in with that group, without really observing you playing any other character. so.. I concede and offer all apologies.. ;) damn smileys. |

Wot! I can't believe you brought that up! You... well, okay, casual insults aren't my strong point, so I'll just say you can't accessorize. Take that! <sounds of a catfight begin to brew> |

Hmmm, James' last instruction just made me think of something: what are we going to do about Whisper? Can we have her NPC'd?
I know we just let Cougar kind of slide of the show, as it were (hindsight: we should've had an IC post that he didn't make it through and the Gate got him). |

The heck? My IC post in which Torque examines the Gems is gone. It must not have processed somehow. I'll have to repost it.

Since Whisper's an NPC Shadow can make her the Goa'uld without ticking off any player by destroying his/her character.
Of course now that I've said it that kind of ruins things. . . |

I don't really want to play Whisper, and I was kind of hoping I could convince Morg to come back. But she hasn't responded to my emails...
For now she will go along with whatever James said. |

After the last time you fell, I'd have thought you burn some karma to not do it again. :)
Are there any columns in the main room? Doorways? Any cover? Small Unit Tactics: 1, 3, 8, 10 |

There is very little cover. The main entrance way though is a corridor, and from the entrance you cannot see into the temple itself.

When we get the results back, and assuming Cosmo managed to stay afoot, these are the rolls for his two quick actions if/when he gets the chance.
Command to send Skyboard to the shadows at the top of the temple and wait on stand-by with Sensors on passive (Task Pool +3 dice): 1 4 7 3 2 4 1 3 3 Disappear into the closest shadow-filled nook (Stealth, Karma Pool +4 dice): 13 3 1 4 5 6 10 And there he'll stay, watching the scene unfold from his brave, bold position cowering in the GM's namesake. |

If I were you I wouldn't start giving the GM ideas on who should become Goa'uld, because he might try to fake you out. :) "Ah, Torque, you feel something funny on your spine." :vegm: |

Hey guys, I don't want to start anything now and then have it hang over the weekend... so I am going to hold it here. Feel free to post, or get ready in whatever way you feel is appropriate.
See you all bright and early Monday morning. |

Well whatever works I guess.
@Tziluthi: What do the Goa'uld have to do with spines? I saw the movie Stargate and Ra looked a lot like The Thing, kind of rock-like with sharp teeth when he wasn't in human form. |

For all intents and purposes, the movie is completely different from the series.

The Go'ould in the series are actually parasitic sybiotes. They look like snakes and take over a body by wrapping thier bodies around the spine and lodging its head in the lower brain stem of the "host". Hence "Snake-Heads"
The host is powerless but apparently remains aware of its surroundings and actions. Like being on a hitcher jack with a decker. Talk about nightmare... |
