RE: Weekly Field Trip: Wed 13th, 2008
21:00 ET, Meet in the Common Room
i.e. Lord Mako’s Request
I, Dr. Octavia will be leading the upcoming field trip. The security level for this trip will be of an accelerated sophomore level [1], with possibly a few advanced placement positions available for worthy freshman. The selection for these coveted spots will be determined immediately prior to the event.
I have room seven, with NO more than four being –talented- freshmen [2]. The goal will be disclosed at my digression, and on the way. For now, I will only divulge that it involves Lord Mako, and his recent concerns expressed directly to me.
Sigma is not just about ‘pretty’ things, gossip, and bloody back rubs ladies! You must EARN these rights and privileges, as you will be required to TAKE them in your future careers if you truly wish to walk as goddesses’ among the enfeebled masses. As a potential Sigma graduate, you carry the great responsibility of being the steel inside the velvet glove! The velvet aspect I will leave for others to cultivate.
While not a ‘mandatory’ assignment for all girls of the house, this will be a GRADED field exam, and posted to your permanent record [3]. The subject for this field trip will focus on group tactics, a subject that has been woefully lacking to this point.
EXPECT to be tested…and bring your medi-transponders this time goddamn it! Grades will be assigned as I see fit, with possible make up exams for the no shows (by personal appt only!), or by fiat as I am so inclined.
Notice: I anticipate that in being the ill-disciplined, soft, and vile little wanton rabble that you are, that you shall all FAIL…miserably!! I do not curve. Period.
To date, none of the Sigma tactical groups I have observed has shown anything close to group acumen. My long military training with Lord Recluse will be instructional on this point! We may not remedy your obvious shortcomings on Wednesday night ladies, but I assure you…you will become familiar with the basics. Even if I need to acid etch the principles in your feather-soft asses!
I urge you to impress me ladies, for I assure you, I WILL impress you if I find myself displeased by your efforts!!
Final note: Additional points may be assigned for sisters who work with less experienced students effectively, OR … to those students who attend well to "the Extra Credit Option" [4] after the evening’s field work.
AS always, sign the waiver provided below…in blood if you dare.

[1] ((the Renault TF lvl 25-30+; Seeking the ‘Eye of the Leviathan’; please note this for any Coralax tie-ins, arcs, etc that may be found to be useful to the troupe. Also I would love to try to work in a ‘Circus’ hook for anyone if they are interested in using the opportunity. Let me know :) ))

(( damn! looks like I need to level up some more... ))
(( Oh. and I don't think you can lackey in anyone under the min level. So, level 25 is a requirement! ))
*Ali goes to sign her name and nicks her thumb on the stylus* OW! Damnit.
She then signs her name, not really quite understanding that the 'pen' doesn't use red ink...
(( Will try so hard to be there, since Thessa HAS the Coralax background, and all))
Thessa nips some skin of her thump with her teeth, and signs with her pinkish salmon blood, knowing Dr Octavia well enough for that.
*Sandre looks at the bloody smears below the notice and rolls her eyes* Oh how gauche.... *She coughs a couple of times* Oh no, it seems I'm coming down with something.... guess I can't make it! *Smiling a bit to herself, she continues on her way*
(( Hrm, Mercy is like 12th, so I am DQ'ed from this one? ))
((Sadly yes... [thanks Ali & Mercy ;) ]...whatever I was drinking when I thought you could lackey up for this has worn off. As it stands right now, you must be 25+ to go. I've only played since beta *headslap*.
Anyway, everyone let me know what levels you are...and I will try to figure something out ;)))
(( correction... GOT 25! Yay. ))
(( Mercy, if I see you when I get home from work tonight, I can hop on my 50 and see if we can't power level you a bit. I'm guessing its too little too late, but its worth a shot, no? ))
(( Sibs is 30 so I'm good to go with the TF, but if we can't take enough people along we should probably just do random missions... I have the MIdnighter arc up and ready to run on Sibby, and that's something we can lackey/malefactor to so that we can include more people... but I'll leave it up to Doc Oc since she's runnin' the show! :D ))
(( AWww.... I actaully would kinda like to maybe do the TF ^_^;; You know, Thessa... Mako... Coralax... the Levathian... So much yayness))
Felicia smiles and takes a gold pin from her hair and picks her thumb and then begins to write with the pin in flowing script.
"By the pricking of my thumb Felicia Onyx this way comes."
(())A brief lesson on Field Trip Nights!
Around each Wednesday, I pick/contact/collaborate with an instructor to take over the following Wednesday. Its that instructor's chance to do a sort of "broader" class room setting, and to take it where they wish. While we are about inclusion as much as possible, the reality is that there will always be a newcommer just around the cornor, or a level split that doesn't quite work out. Its clear Alice has a plan, a story beyond simply doing the taskforce, and I encourage this. Other weeks, like last week for example, it can be a bit more free wheeling.
In short, it is up to the Weekly Mentor to do what they do, and we try to accomidate as best we can.
Although I wish I could get some Mercy time, since we have this nasty habit of completely clashing schedules!
(( I'm definately wishing I could make it. Given that Leviathan is a creature of an age equivocable to "Kali," the two might have something to say to one another. *Wouldn't it be great if Kali showed up mid-field trip to have a chitchat with its kin?* ))
(( Thanks for the PL offer, Alli, I appreciate it.
I'm guessing the majority of the group will be 25+. I say go ahead and do the missions, I can certainly join in the RP even if I can't actually be smacking people around.
Of course, I defer to Dr. O. since it's her show. ;-}
))
(( well... that was fun. Octavia didn't turn out to be the nastiest foe on the map. THAT honor goes to the Eye of the Leviathan. 25 feet tall, controlling 8 or 9 waterspouts, plus psionic attacks.
... and Ali got dropped, twice. Which meant, the Leviathan got to have its way with her, or at least a little bit.
... the emergency surgery afterward was ...rather intense. ))
(Intense but fun RP.
Thessa pulling living coral out of her, Mari worrying and tending to HER Girl, Felicia trying to do basic surgery with barely freshman knowledge, Dr Qiang removing her limiter and going bat shit powerful....just awesome to read and be part of!)
(( Oh if only you had had Sandre there to give the blessings of her goddess ))
