NEW ABILITY UNLOCKED: SAP BOMB
Eudora can construct an Area-of-Effect bomb of sap. Enemies caught in the splash will struggle to free themselves. A direct hit can bind an entire body; while splash damage can bind hands and weapons (approx. three goons can be caught).

• AGL — Eudora can spit far with small, quick pellets.
• DUR — Larger splash; approx. five goons may be bound with a direct hit.

Eudora’s talents include Climb, High Jump, Spit, Heal-Self, Survival, Intimidate and Camouflage.

Eudora is the class who has the most natural skills and is the most flexible; she can opt for an offensive, bullet-sponge tactic or go for a stealthier approach.

Her AGILITY mod adds +10% to Climb, High Jump, Camouflage, and Spit, but depletes 5HP from total health.

Her DURABILITY mod removes -5% to aforementioned skills, but +5AR to total armor and +10% on Survival and Intimidate.

*Descriptions may change depending on how well this works!

Those are great and all, but could you maybe chill out there, cranky?
Kid didn't mean any harm and it was an accident.

Too bad Victor didn't hear any of that, because he has now fainted in horror.

Compliment her new abilities, kiss her slimy feet, promise her your firstborn son, anything you can to stay alive.

I was trying to be quiet and leave when I saw you were in your thingy, but then the door fell down and I ended up running into it! You've really got to get that door fixed!

Sweet... and it would be considerably more awesome if you weren't about to kill me so can you put me down so I can let you get back to sleep. Also if you don't want anyone to disturb you while you sleep why don't you lock your door instead of having it close on somebody's face when they try to leave you to rest making a loud noise?

... A-are you getting madder? Should... should I just stop talking?

Victor guesses beauty sleep is important. Now to come up with an escape plan. He could just give in and bargain for his life. He could babble on, explaining himself and risk angering the disgruntled insect even more. Telling her to chill out is out of the question.

As primitive beasts, Chupras would be able to spit and quickly run away from their attackers. They also had a second defense maneuver which is probably fainting and playing dead ([03]/[40]). Eudora rolls her eyes and opens the door with a fist pounding on the button pad. No use slapping the mutt up anyway.

Promptly tossing him out, she grumbles and shuts the sliding door behind her. Now that’s an effective escape artist tactic!

Well, nothing much left to do but visit Cybil’s Room!

The Gortian is always operating on something—or doing research even outside of the job. You notice that—at this point living with the super-terrestrials—she doesn’t often take time to relax. Her room is in two parts. Behind the milky-white glass is a sanitary bed and bathroom. No one but Cybil is allowed beyond the sterilizing corridor where she can safely remove her suit.

She stops welding her latest invention and notices you, “Oh, hello Victor! Was that you making such a ruckus?”

Cybil: “Ah, I see you’ve finally finished that thing. What did ya call it again? Anyway…”

Cybil: “Early tomorrow morning we’ll be heading out to the [b]Eoochrqua Bazaar[b] that’s held bi-monthly at Cuttle Harbor.”

Victor: “I’m just curious about how you thought the mission went. I mean—”

Victor: “I didn’t seem to know where to meet. And when I couldn’t save you from Crater…”

Cybil: “Vic, it’s fine,” she assures you, “And don’t worry about last night. It takes a lot more than a slap to dent this armor.”

Cybil: “Next time, we’ll all arrive together. There was a miscommunication between the three of us on when to arrive and it won’t likely happen again.”

Cybil: “I think the mission was a success in its own right. We didn’t know Moss would show up and those weapons have ended in police custody.”

Cybil: “Now that——that ought to put a dent into Moss’ plans!”

NEW ABILITY MOD: ORBITING DRONE
An orb circles the player to provide as an assistant, or a turret. The satellite acts as an extension of Cybil and can hack, scan, and repair, as well as replicate any of Cybil’s abilities. The orb increases the chance to succeed any of Cybil’s talents by 10%. It may only be used once per checkpoint.

Cybil is an offensive class specializing in technology. She’s also a worthy support class to protect her teammates from gunfire and provide some insight on certain species, clashes between alien factions, and exotic cultures.

Have a chat with Cybil and speculate on what that weird little black ball in the giant freezer is supposed to be or what it's supposed to do!

Cybil: “Nah, it’s getting late anyway. You're only on the job outside of this building. Just be prepared for tomorrow and set your alarm.”

Victor: “So who were you talking to earlier?”

Cybil: “You mean, like, at the warehouse?”

Cybil: “Just the officers who arrived first. I recognized most of the party when I was a constable a few years back.”

Cybil: “You can safely assume Jer and I have a reputation with them. Due to my success and support for Jer’s proposed team—well, the department relies heavily on us not to screw up.”

Victor: “That’s a lot of pressure…”

Cybil: “Heh, Jer would get a laugh out of that. ‘Lots of paperwork to fill after every investigation. We are constantly kept in check ever since… well since the first time he's tried to establish a team.”

You decide to bring up the strange, black gumball from the freezer as to speculate what the heck it was. Even Cybil has no clear idea. She had scanned it earlier ([98]/[60]) but nothing could be identified.

Cybil: “Well you got me, Vic. The scanner just came up empty!”

Cybil: “I guess that the freezer is another militarized machine. The orb could be a bomb or dangerous element, or ingredient. I’m just guessing at the top of my head at this point.”

Cybil: “It’s currently in a secluded lab and it's out of our business. If something comes up, I’ll see if Jer can ask his friends to share a bit of information.”

She thinks for a bit, unsure whether to continue—but ultimately mentions it, “I can print my photos if you’d like. They’re more or less, well, confidential at this point.”

Cybil: “But I trust that you won’t let this become an obsession?”

a) Herself; >___

c) Other; >___
d) Leave (go where?)

No more than it will become an obsession for the rest of the team, I'd imagine.

A) So how did a species that needs to worry about suit ruptures get into (and stay in) the field of frontline crime prevention?

>>785056
>ASK CYBIL ABOUT:
>a) Herself; >___
>b) The Team; >___
Never know she was on the force before being on this team. Figured she was like Vic and Eudora and was picked out by Jer for some insane skill or crazy mutation. But if you don't mind me askin, what made you want to become a cop anyways? Especially on a world where you can't walk around outside of your room without wearing that suit? Just seems a bit odd to pick this place out all the places you could have gone. I mean Her skills would be valued anywhere. And what made her and Jer want either you or Eudora on the team as well. Not that you're complaining you just find it weird that someone with as short of fuse as Eudora being cleared for a experimental special task force, she's can be a bit of a pain to get along with, and while Vic is awesome again I would have thought that for something that seems to be testing the waters and soaking up so many resources you guys would have wanted someone with a bit thicker resume.

>THE PHOTOS:
>[Leave them]
At this point I don't see why we should even care. Their's absolutely nothing we can do with the orb at this point and I feel that our efforts are best focused elsewhere. If it becomes important then we can deal with it when it comes back to bite us in the ass but as for now that ship has sailed, let's move on.

Leave photos. Too confidential.

Also, ask about the team. Suggest maybe merging your special attacks and abilities together for some kind of team attack, Chrono Trigger style

>>785056
Make a joke about how the strange, black gumball could be some ancient super weapon technology from a long destroyed civilization like in the plot of some sorta video game. Then suddenly realize that, holy shit, that might actually be what it is and you just made a really lucky guess!

You decide not to take the photos. There’s nothing anyone here could do at this point. There are still a few questions he was curious to ask.

Victor: “I didn’t know you were on the force! How does your species get into the frontline of crime prevention when they’re at risk of suit ruptures?”

Victor: “I’m sure your skills are valued anywhere but out of all the places to live and become a cop no less; why? If you don‘t mind me asking…”

Cybil makes a slight chortle, “Oh, Victor. My species is fine! It’s just me who’s stuck in this suit!”

Cybil: “And when you’ve lived two-thirds of your life in an isolated room hooked up to tubes and wires—you would too want to break out.”

Cybil: “But I guess the need to serve and protect is a ‘Gortian’ thing; it’s in my blood. I don’t know how Chupras or Arthocobs value order—but my species established many laws of the galaxy after centuries of barbarous interplanetary wars.”

Cybil: “My father worked relentlessly to find a cure for my immune deficiency. He and Jer were best friends before I was even born. And this suit was one of his last designs before…”

Cybil: “…well, his passing.”

Victor: “I'm sorry...”

Cybil: “No worries, Vic. It was many, many years ago.”

Cybil: “And to be situated here, I guess feel like I’m following in his footsteps. I was stuck on Khlaatus when it shifted to an isolated state and Jer, more or less, was able to rescue me.”

Cybil: “Kerchek really is like a father to me now.”

Victor: “So I see how you ended up chaperoning us. But how come Eudora and I were chosen? I’d assume you guys would want someone more qualified. And—don’t get me wrong, I’m okay with Eudora—but she seems to have a temper.”

Cybil: “Eudora knows to be responsible in the line of duty. Yes, she can get aggravated but she knows her limits.

Cybil: “And you do remember your training once you first arrived here, right? As for why you two were chosen…”

Cybil: “Jer has this childhood fantasy to create a super team. He’s a mutant himself, in fact. But he’s grown too old to fight anymore. And not all mutations benefit everyone,” she refers to her own immunity, “yet you and Eudora have something unique to bring to the table.”

Cybil: “You were given the opportunity to join, and here you are! If you focus on your heightened mutations—and use them to your full potential—”

Victor: “And merge our abilities for a devastating attack!”

Cybil: “Or that—we can be an effective team and clean up this city.”

"well thanks for the talk, but I do have one thing to say before I head out. If Jer is trying to turn us into super heroes I get a say in what my super suit looks like. I can't decide if it should have a cape or not."

just say the super suit part sarcastically and that should get a laugh out of her.

“Har har,” she smirks—or at least indicated that she had, “I see you're getting pretty tired; you should get going to bed. I haven’t noticed how much time has flown.”

He just had one last thing to do, and it was to send his mother a message. She’s on a completely different planet, so phone calls may take years to go back and forth.

Usually foreigners would send video messages through a rather interesting form of ‘space mail’. Victor sets up his monitor to prepare his speech: whether it’s how he’s been doing for the past few days or maybe share details about his job. The program is free, thus the video can only last a few paragraphs unless he upgrades.

Like he's going to pay the full price...

WHAT SHOULD HE INCLUDE IN THE MESSAGE?:
>___

>>787246
"Hey mom, it's me Vic, but I guess you know that already. Just checking in to tell you how I'm doing. Just got back from my first mission and don't worry it went pretty well and not only did I help put a bunch of bad guys away I even fond something important looking after the fight, and don't worry I'm fine. They never even got close enough to touch me.

But yeah my team is also pretty great. Jar my boss is a pretty chill guy and I'm getting a feeling that he has a thing for super heroes which is actually pretty cool. Cybil who is the team leader and is also pretty cool as in not only is she pretty good at her job but actually knows how to talk tech so if I ever get bored or need to bounce ideas for some toys I got in my head off someone I finally have someone to talk to around here. Next is Eudora... She's kind of, well, a bitch but 2 out of 3 isn't bad but she's really good at her job and works well as in the team. Also I'm pretty sure she might be a slight narcoleptic or just lazy as she does like to sleep a lot and god help anyone who disturbs her beauty rest.

Anyways, just calling to let you know how I'm doing and to say hi. Hope to hear from you soon."

That short enough?

>>787281
looks fine, but I would take out the part about finding something important, probably just replace it with "a bunch of contraband", just in case. Gotta be absolutely confidential,

also, replace "bitch" with something else like "scary" or "loner" or something. the person we are writing to is his mother after all, she might not appreciate the foul language.

>>787344
well seeing how she threatened to beat vic to a pulp because she doesn't understand how door locks work I felt that calling her a bitch would actually be in character for vic seeing as she kinda has been nothing but a bitch to the little guy. Plus Vic doesn't seem to be the type of guy who would sugar coat things and will speak his mind unless it actually would be detrimental to his health.

Plus I kinda get the feeling that at some point one or more of our teammates will probably be surfing through our computer's logs for one reason or another and I figure little slip ups like that would provide some humor.

Victor: “Hey ma, it’s Victor. I mean—you can obviously see that. How are the sibs? And Dad?”

Victor: “Anyway, I’m just telling you how things are here in Port Echo. I got back from my first mission and it went pretty well, actually!

Victor: “Cybil’s the team leader, just as cool. She knows a thing or two about technology while on the job. She can make a hologram and all this cool stuff with gadgets!”

Victor: “Guess I should be happy she’s on our side. But God forbid if she loses her beauty sleep. I’m thinking she’s somewhat of a narcoleptic for sleeping in her room so much. She’s kind of a loner anyway so I guess that’s fine.”
