Alrighty, can someone shoot me a quick summary?  I'm interested in finding out what's gone on so that I can work up a new character!

In the last roleplay, Lanthae was destroyed by a flock of space warships that effectively ended the Augments vs. Purifiers fight with neither side winning. The surviving characters migrated to the next door town of Corona and lived lives for 6 months.

Second roleplay started when Vergil (a psionic gecko and Pterano's main character) summoned the characters to join his team and travel the globe searching for 'waypoints', secret radio things that, if all of them are accessed, tell the user how to find some giant hidden ship called the Cataract that is super badass. The commander of the space warships, Kalis, is a powerthirsty space warlord and Vergil's former leader and both want the Cataract for themselves so they can destroy the other.

Having located all but two of the waypoints, Vergil's team is now sailing down the river Nile of Egypt about to assault a power plant or something because it has the next waypoint. Vergil's team currently has:


Triste: A mysterious gecko who knows Vergil from the past and is super secretive
Soren: Scientist augment-constructing guy
Emilena: Leads a small gang of drug runners. The only two who joined Vergil's team are Flora (a futa fuchsia folf) and Rio (an underage pickpocket)
Marita, Rose and Marie: lesbian hacker, stripper, and card dealer respectively
Tony: Son of a mafia don, Tony fell to his death and got better
Anne: A cybernetic unicorn who does drugs
Axel: Lily's husband. Lily is no longer on the team after Vergil fired her for disorderly conduct
Kojurro: Who lived in the Lanthae forest for 6 months and went native.

Adrian was a member of Emilena's drug-running gang but he was separated from them in South Africa and nobody has seen him since. Nobody is playing him if you want him back.

There's a subplot where a superspy named Marion is working for a shadowy corporate guy named Mace who has assigned her to keep an eye on Vergil's team. Anyone who feels like correcting or adding onto this summary, please do so.

Vergil doesn't want to destroy Kalis, he actually wants to find out more about him, and why he rebelled against the Federation in the first place, as well as learn about the leader of the rebellion who's now dead, Rex, as he suspects he served under Rex in the past. He knows Kalis used to be a hero, and if possible, he wants to help him if he can.

Mace is Rex's brother, and CEO of Zaloga Corporation, one of the four huge weapons manufacturers in Corona. The ship itself is called Devastation's Inception, and it's located in a place called Torment's Cataract, which we'll find out why when we get there.

Kalis isn't technically space, he just has an air fleet that was meant for space travel but was never used as such due to first the Scorched Earth War and then Rex's Rebellion breaking out, creating a demand for aerial battleships on the planet instead.

But yeah, that's basically it in summary.

Any further questions just ask. :)
