Tanar doesn't mind the promotion and the Knighthood and will definitely not turn it down, he's just surprised since he didn't think he did much.

IC: Liam escapes back to his suite packs his bags and checks out of the resort. He hopes that he can just altered his appearance enough so that he is not noticed as having been involved with putting down the terrorist raid.

He hops a flight back to the capital. He knows that his oldest sister, Larisa and her family maintain an estate just out side the city. Liam hops a cab to the estate. He walks to the door and presses the door bell. The door is answered buy the service robot Serge. "Good Day, Lord Liam! I shall inform Lady Larisa of your arrival". "Thank You, Serge". Liam walks into the great room and sits on the couch. The sound of little running feet break the silence "Uncle Liam, Uncle Liam"! Liam suddenly finds himself surrounded by his neice and nephew, Cara and Niaal. As the children question him rapid fire fashion, "Children!...Leave your uncle alone!, go play!" In walks Liam's oldest sister Larisa. Liam rises to his feet. She greets him with a big hug. "Larisa, I need a place to stay for a little while. I was wondering if I can stay here with you, Connor and the children for a while...until I can get my self settled. I can't go back to Ravenscraig right now, Father will skin me alive!" "Of course, Baby Brother, Serge will show you to the guest room. I was about to go to the Court. You have 20 minutes to shower and dress, because you are coming with me! I think you should act on what ever good will is left after the terrorist attack on Glacier Bay. You managed to ruffle some feathers. And Liam,..." "Yes Larisa?" She grabs him by his ear lobe making him feel as if he was still a small child. "Behave yourself" She looks back at him with her ever present smile as she leaves the room. Serge shows Liam to the guest room. Liam showers and changes his clothes.

(Still at the resort in the aftermath of the attack, Savrax is meeting Bodger)

After Bodger introduces himself, Savrax nods toward the terrorist with the extra holes in his head. “Nice job, by the way. Things rather fell apart there at the end. If it wasn’t for you, Lady Penelope would certainly be dead right now.” After a brief exchange, Savrax excuses himself to check on Slayerian and Ventura. He surveys the destruction of the room and the wounded Penelope and wonders how he will explain why they were almost too late to save the Princess. Even though it wasn’t the real Princess, it was the same as, considering the intel and objective. And with Slayerian being so badly wounded, there were some serious considerations regarding how this op was executed. It was with these grim thoughts in mind that he visited the medic and made his way to his extraction.

IC:Ally will hang out in the room if she still has it for a day. She will go over her moves. Just to double check if she made mistakes. After that one day she will go out and buy a few things.


OCC:The little slug would be her first buy.

money, exp, notoriety, and awards are all updated; (pay day figured on the skill on the sheet at time of pay day) you can review your pay stub in the "Bringing home the bacon" thread of the Player Character's Folder

everyone should now have a listing at the bottom of their character sheet that says Military Record and it will say such and such award given for actions in such and such incident- it doubles as a record for me to see whats been awarded when and where but also acts as a record of the PC's military service.

At the very bottom of the character sheet should be a listing that says EDITS: and I've begun to list the times I edit the character sheet so that I know I've done it and don't accidently pay someone twice for the same time period.

Inactive PCs have been moved to the NPC folder temporarily till I can set up a specific folder for inactive/abandoned/ or KIA PCs

Note: some of the newly created PCs have unspent EXP from character creation and they should post a comment in their character sheet thread concerning what they'd like to do with them. Some need a discription and background (each worth 1 EXP) If you haven't done so you should do a copy & paste of the character sheet I posted for you (you cant edit my post) and do a response in the character sheet thread. Once you've done that I will change the character sheet I posted to a "Welcome to the game statement" and then your character sheet will be editable by both of us.

Also in the weeks following Glacier Bay and while the Pelican is doing a shakedown cruise in the inner system she will return to Clarion for an awards and knight hood ceremony.

Allyson is posted to the Pelican, Bodger will be visited by a recruiter now that he hit the RM's radar in a big way and recruited for the service he's already an engineer with prior military experience and will take an accelerated training course and be posted to the Pelican at the end of the 2 months.
Liam is sort of drifting right now.
Alyssa Blue has been transfered to duties elsewhere and the RM is looking for a new pilot to post to the Pelican.
Grelude will be left in place on the ship as an NPC for now.

IC: Liam is still amazed by the hustle and bustle of the palace, much like he was when he was a kid. "Liam, what exactly happened when you were with the Fleet? Father can't even find out." "The records are sealed, Larisa. One of the few good times it was to be Lord Mowbray." Larisa continues "So, you hid Princess Avana in the closet of your suite..." "I thought it was Penny!" Larisa laughs "If that WAS Penny she woould have choked the life out of you!" "I know". "Thankfully, she should recover...and you should go see her!" "In time I Wi..." Before LIam can finish his sentence an arm pushes Liam against the wall. Two voices yell out "Father!" "Ian" as Larisa and her mother Lady Suzannah Mowbray try to separate father and son. "Just because you helped save the Princess does not cleanse you of your past mistakes, Boy" This lecture comes from Liam's father, Lord Ian Mowbray, The Iron Baron! "Walk with me, Liam" Liam walks with his father. The RMC is talking about bringing back the Raptor Squadron. You can experience as fighter pilot could be useful. Even if you do not join the squadron your Space Fleet experience will be useful to Marines after all these loses. Besides, you need a job...a military job, not a civillian job like your brother-in-law Connor. Your mother expects you to visit her, you come home and don't visit her. I think I will never hear the end of it! I am late for a meeting with the Prime Minister".

everyone has this week to post describing what their character is doing during the 2 month period. The first 4 weeks GST the crew of the Pelican will be running their butts off with shakedown of the ship then they get some enforced shore leave as the ship goes back for re tuning.
active posting gains you 1 exp, a lot is possible- just post about your PCs experience taking some new training and spending some money. NPC contacts can be mined for clues. and of course character development on your part gives the GM a better idea of who character is and can lead to your character being woven more tightly into the plot of the adventure.

go ahead and move over to the new thread unless you have a BIC post
I'll lock this one in a few days.

IC: The day after the encounter with his father at the palace Liam makes his way to the Royal Marine recruiting office. He walsk through the doors where he is greeted by a young enlisted Marine. "Can I help you sir?" "Yes,,,Yes you can. I wish to join up." The Marine turns to an open area of desks "Lt., I have someone for you." A human female in a perfectly pressed uniform walks over and motions to Liam to walk over to one of the desks. She sits behind the desk. "What can I do for you today, Sir?" "I wish to join the Marines, Lieutenant. I have prior military experience when I held a commission in Space Fleet. I was a pilot with the 214th, I flew the S-4 Corsair." THe Marine LIeutenant looks over Liams file. "I see you were booted out of Space FLeet, Lord Mowbray. Why was that?" "The JAG officers and the judge decide it would be in everyone's best interest if the file was sealed. Call it a favor. Its something I am trying to forget." "I see. Normally we wouldn't accept someone under these conditions, but with your experience, your title, your family's distingushed service and with the Marine Corps being short handed these days, we need all the help we can get. This is our standard contract...." After what seemed like an eternity, Liam went over the RMC contract. "Sign here, My Lord" Liam signs. "Lord Mowbray, you must report to the Offcier Training Program on this date. It is a short training program that will familliarize you with the procedures of the RMC and undo that training from Space Fleet. Upon completion of the training, you will recieve your commission. Any questions?" "No" "Good Luck to you, My Lord".

IC:Ally went out to do some shopping. She hit up the nearest pet shop and asked the worker there,"Do you carry anything that is slug like and can be carried on a ship? The cage it has to be in can it have some sort of life support on it. Just in case we lose the ships life support I don't want my new pet to die becuase of power lost or other things like combat."
