guy wants to build a porter of his own. says he's done it before. not here. his world. needs supplies. think it's worth a shot to offer to work with him.
So do we actually have any appointed trainers here, or is that mission for show? I'm getting tired of having these import-hunting criminals loose and being paranoid.
I'd like to learn the basics of handling firearms- preferably from someone with a civilian background to save on wasted energy and conflicting ideals.
Members of the Constellation: you have done well. Our organization is strong, and our resources are growing. The community now knows our name and our purpose. The government's security has been breached. Their secrets are leaking into the public's view. By revealing the truth of their surveillance and corruption, we will help to build a better future for all imPorts.
There are great changes under way. Starting this month, you will all be paid regularly for your services to the cause. Each of you will find the money arriving in a secure account in monthly installments. You deserve to be compensated for the sacrifices you have made and the risks you have taken.
We also have new and more powerful allies. The work of our scientists has imbued a select few natives with great powers, far stronger than any ordinary soldier. In gratitude, they have joined our ranks as 'Comets.' They are available for employment in your service, should you have need of a protector or an ally. In return, you will be responsible for ensuring their training and continued contributions to our work.
Soon we will launch new and greater operations to advance our plans. This is only the beginning. Until then, continue your efforts. Continue to investigate, recruit, and train. Together, we will not be stopped.
I have a way of replicating the skills of others, and storing them for anyone to use at a later time. I believe that when the time comes for us to perform a major operation, it would be helpful to be able to distribute additional abilities as we see fit.
If anyone has anything useful, I would like to meet with you. Offensive, defensive, or otherwise, I am confident we can find a productive place for it.
First, do we have a base of operations that is both secret from the government and mobile? If not, I have design specifications for something that may be able provide this, given assistance.
Second, I believe the position of Ambassador for De Chima is currently vacant. The role of Ambassador would no doubt be a tremendous asset to the cause, and this is an opportunity we should not squander. Perhaps you may disagree, but I believe it's something to consider.
Third, a question: how far are any of you willing to go for this organization?
Our agents have been hard at work, and their operations continue to be successful. If any of you would be interested in receiving reconnaissance information of the government's Porter bases, simply reply to this message and it will be sent to you by secure channels.
I have a report for you, regarding all the powers that I have copied, or could copy upon request. If there is anything you deem useful, or anything you wish me to retrieve, I will send it your way. The full list is below, sorted by function.
>>>Offensive<<< ○Magic - ice ○Magic - electric ○Magic - curse/darkness - overwhelming unexplainable pain + dread ○Magic - "magatsu mandala" - a ring of death, from Uranus ○Earth manipulation - can be used for all sorts of things, really ○Spontaneous projectile weapon conjuring ○Mind Slice - sword or sword-like weapon required, confuses the enemy and makes them attack their allies
>>>Support/Physical Enhancements<<< ○Enhanced speed ○Enhanced physical durability ○Self-healing factor ○Flight - no wings ○Magic - "masukukaja" - enhance your own speed and that of anyone around you that you wish ○High Counter - chance of reflecting an enemy's attack through spontaneous forcefield ○Turning liquids into alcohol - likely not useful, but in the interest of disclosure ○ Slushie generation - see above
>>>Mental<<< ○Memory manipulation ○Tracking people or places - courtesy of Jupiter
Members of the Constellation. This is an official reminder that unless you are engaged in recruitment, you are to never discuss this organization's activities and membership with outsiders, or identify yourself as a member. Secrecy is our most valuable line of defense, and there is no lack of enemies who would happily destroy us if they were able.
One of you has failed to follow this rule. Tohru Adachi, who you may know as 'Uranus', has endangered us all with his insubordination and lack of discretion. Our cause is too important for this kind of disloyalty to be tolerated. He will be disciplined for his actions, and kept under close scrutiny from this point forward. He will remain part of the group, but all of you should be careful regarding what you tell him in the future.
PRIVATE TO PROMETHEUS
You were recruited by him. While you have performed well so far, we must be certain that you are not involved in this treachery.
You will be in charge of disciplining Uranus, and learning just how much he has told to which people. How you go about this is up to you. Consider it a chance to prove your continued loyalty to our group.
[ It takes a long time for Adachi to type this all out, because ha, he's still in pain. Thanks Yusuke. ]
Hunh. Guess I missed my own coming out party. Guess that's just what happens when you get tied up and tortured~! ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ
Anyway, finally heard back from my contact. I promised not to give her name, so don't bother asking for it. She's a geneticist that used to work in their shady plastic surgery wing, studying imPort DNA for the purposes of enhancing senses for the purposes of curing blindness. Her ideas were pretty much ignored, and when her marriage to the local police lieutenant went public, she was conveniently relocated.
Anyway, it seems like the company has a ridiculous interest in imPort physiology. We'll need to get a hacker in the De Chima offices so we can get more info. My hacking skills are... well, not. Existent.
[ooc; I have the information that a hacker could find from the De Chima office, I can pass it on to whomever would go in to get it. ]
All Constellation members are strongly encouraged to attend this month's SWEAR-OUT protest outside the government's Swearing-In. This rally is a fine opportunity for us to build more support for imPorts controlling their own lives. It could also provide ample opportunities for encountering potential recruits. Speak in favour of Swear-Out to your acquaintances, and consider volunteering to assist with it.
There will also be a team-building exercise at this event. The time is coming for us to act as a group, working together face to face. There are limits to what can be achieved through codenames, after all. If you guess a Constellation member's identity at the Swear-Out, you will be entitled to a generous reward.
As always, continue your fine work. Our better future is becoming closer to reality with each passing day.
