Week 3

[Come week 3 of the Champion Excellence Program the high-flying feelings that came with the dodgeball game last week has dissipated, especially after the...everything that was that trial. Satan Mask sure was a thing that happened.

Just like last week, right on the dot at 7 am, the mechanical woman's voice chimes to awaken the remaining champions on Sunday morning. After the initial wake-up call though there's a new message tacked on:]

Congratulations, Champions! By surviving your second trial, you have unlocked the third floor of the ship. A new mini map has been added to your P.I.P.! To access the second floor please stand on the teleporter and select the floor you wish to be teleported to.

[And again the Champions are awakened they have regained one new memory from the ones they've lost. Starting again on Sunday, as well, Jamie and Bolton will be back to their usual office hours in their usual locations.]

Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday


[ooc: welcome to week 3, everyone! Check-in has begun and don't forget to submit your memory regains!]

Did you get any of your own things back yet?

[misplacedxsheath]

One of them, though it seems as if it's been disabled.

[He lifts the arm that isn't occupied carrying the gigantic tube and shows a pale blue bracelet around his wrist.

It's meant to offer some elemental protection.

[ratherdoweddings]

Oh, you mean for bad weather? Or ethers like yours?

[misplacedxsheath]

Both, effectively. It reduces the effects of cold, and hardly discriminates between active attack and dangerous surroundings.

[ratherdoweddings]

Do a lot of people where you're from have them?

[misplacedxsheath]

Ethers, or objects like this? In either case, the answer is that they're reasonably available to the public, but few possess more than a handful of basic abilities, and equipment that imparts effects on the user doesn't come cheap. Both are primarily used by those in more dangerous lines of work.

[ratherdoweddings]

Wow... The foundation makes sense, though. I guess that's what would happen if we ever decided to work on people beyond making them better able to interface with heavy equipment.

[misplacedxsheath]

They have their uses, yes. Most medical treatments are based upon the same sort of technology. They're also of great use against the Gnosis...even one as skilled as myself would be in danger against them without my Ether abilities.

[ratherdoweddings]

That would make sense. We don't even have a lot of information on what the Jovian Lizards are capable of. Until recently, we thought their teleporters were just spacecraft carriers.

[misplacedxsheath]

Then I presume your civilizations went to war immediately upon encountering one another?

[ratherdoweddings]

They don't want to talk to us, just conquer. Most of their crafts are automated, so very few people in UEAF territory have even seen a Jovian. I'm not even sure what they look like.

[misplacedxsheath]

I suppose there will always be those with that attitude. But it's only a matter of time until they overextend themselves, and fall victim to the results of a number of territories resenting them.
