[2/13/2014 6:09:22 PM] Holly: Nilani meets a strange man in the corridor.

[2/13/2014 6:10:25 PM] Nilani: Nilani waves at him. "hello"

[2/13/2014 6:11:38 PM] ?: She finds an elf man with short, spikey dark hair, fair skin, and blue eyes, dressed in armor, and holding out a spear in front of him. He has blue tattoos over his cheekbones, sketching out gently curving shapes. "Um.  Where is this?"

[2/13/2014 6:12:03 PM | Edited 6:12:25 PM] Nilani: This is the crew deck of the voidship Nation.

[2/13/2014 6:12:34 PM] ?: And, uhh. How did I get here? Did I win a vacation?

[2/13/2014 6:13:03 PM] Nilani: Who knows. Did you wake up in a blackish cylindrical poddy thing?

[2/13/2014 6:13:17 PM] ?: That sounds about right.

[2/13/2014 6:14:06 PM] Nilani: Welcome to the club. Pretty much everyone here shambled out of one of those things, except a few hitchhikers we picked up.

[2/13/2014 6:14:42 PM] ?: ... I don't suppose this voidship is safely hovering over Solitaire or St. Benedict or even Tarkishi at the moment, is it?

[2/13/2014 6:14:59 PM] Nilani: heh. no.

[2/13/2014 6:15:07 PM] ?: Well. Okay. Take me to your leader.

[2/13/2014 6:15:25 PM] ?: He stop brandishing his spear in her direction.

[2/13/2014 6:15:59 PM] ?: His tattoos morph a bit into different shapes.

[2/13/2014 6:16:14 PM] Nilani: We haven't decided who is going to fill that position, or whether we need one at all.

[2/13/2014 6:17:05 PM] ?: Hmm, really? All right then. This room is creepy and I'd like to head out there into that much more warmly lit hall, if that's okay?

[2/13/2014 6:18:01 PM] Nilani: sure. did you see the lounge yet? You'll be able to see where we are from there.

[2/13/2014 6:19:17 PM] ?: Well.. that would be something to see, sure, but I find it's best to get awkward introductions out of the way before sightseeing. You don't know why we're here? Or how we got here? Can we get home?

[2/13/2014 6:21:53 PM] Nilani: That's one thing I know. We can't get home. We jump occasionally, which lets us link up with a plane and go gather supplies, but we can't stay there. Raven tried, but he ended up in a pod again. We're flying blind, too. The bridge was blown off who knows how long ago.

[2/13/2014 6:22:42 PM] ?: Hrm. That's a dilemma. So... we can't leave, and we're cursed to wander eternally, or until we die, whichever comes first.

[2/13/2014 6:22:49 PM] Nilani: I'm Nilani, by the way. I'm the resident shady elf.

[2/13/2014 6:22:49 PM] ?: I saw a bad opera like this once.

[2/13/2014 6:23:04 PM] ?: ... do most establishments have a shady elf?

[2/13/2014 6:23:22 PM] Nilani: Most I've been to, recently.

[2/13/2014 6:26:16 PM] ?: He nods, eyeing Nilani. "I'm Murk.  Pleased to meet you."

[2/13/2014 6:27:04 PM] Nilani: Nilani grins at him, not closing her eyes. "Glad you're not a hostile. Well, let's go meet some of the others before they find you wandering about and think you're a vampire or something."

[2/13/2014 6:27:29 PM] ?: ... had a lot of vampires here?

[2/13/2014 6:28:01 PM] Nilani: Only one so far, but he killed a newbie and shook us up for a day or so afterwards.

[2/13/2014 6:28:19 PM] ?: Oh. Well. I'm probably not a vampire.

[2/13/2014 6:29:08 PM | Edited 6:33:14 PM] Nilani: Vampires are fine. Killers, however...

[2/13/2014 6:29:53 PM] ?: I'm not one of those either.

[2/13/2014 6:30:45 PM] Nilani: Nilani starts walking to the galley. "Good to know. Let's go meet some of the others. *mumbling* They'd be fools to stay in that room for that long, though..."

[2/13/2014 6:31:00 PM] ?: He follows Nilani!

[2/13/2014 6:34:02 PM] Holly: ((Swap rooms back!))
