I'm a bit stuck, so I'll leave the decision up to people here:

Which world should Xiaoqiao intervene in?

- [ ] Unnamed Fantasy World
- [ ] Anime: Sailor Moon
- [ ] Totally not Law and Order
- [ ] Urban Supernatural Generic
- [ ]totally not Outlaw Star
 
I think we're a little far from the power levels in Sailor Moon... Totally not Outlaw Star sounds interesting. Although I'm not familiar with Outlaw Star, since it's definitely a different world, I guess it's okay.

[X] Totally not Outlaw Star.
 
World 3: MCU, Part 8: Soviet Union, June 1990. (cont.)
Sorry for the delay!

I do have a bit of things to mention: Right now I'm running off the MCU, but we're 18 years prior to Iron Man. I was going to start the X-Men movie plots (or modify them) starting in '95. I can start having comic adventures, or something, now, and keep them up. Anyone have any opinions?

The alternative is we start fast forwarding when there's nothing going on. That's fine too.

From Last Turn
Artifacts now 1 turn from gaining level
Craft(Simple) +1.1sp, Spellcraft +.3sp

Enemy Turn
Meiling attempts to strike at Hitomi directly.. [1d100 -> 21] and misses

Base Building
The base gains
- Skiled Foxgirls (+30 to all rolls)
- Strategic Coordination Room (Weapons Accuracy Rolls +50 total)
- Secondary Command Center
- Portal Room [Event in Hitomi phase]
- Shrine Room [Event in Hitomi phase]

Xiaoqiao was busy setting up the room, and the crew quarters, like everything else, were deep in the inner shell of the base, which itself had it's own armor. The idea was even if the asteroid shell was destroyed, the base would still be intact. And also the crew would be secure.

Walking through a buzzing base - Xiaoqiao had missed this feeling. A few of the leaders were even multi tailed kitsune like her, and she was being called to the new command center. The one she had built for herself was now a private office for her, and she had built a proper command center. Walking in, she nodded in approval. It was multi level, with the captain's seat in the center with holopanels that could be drawn up. In concentric levels around, there were stations dedicated to base functions, near-base space, monitoring, etc.

"We've got it working, Xiaoqiao." Her second in command nodded at her. Xiaoqiao looked at the thick metal walls, and then they began to glow as the holo-initializers lit up. Soon, a picture of space was spreading over the 235 degree viewscreen, and then the tactical systems began to indicate information about them.

"Good job." Xiaoqiao smiled. She was glad to be the no longer sole engineer. "Do we have the secured uplink to the monitoring constellations?"

"Not quite. We should get full observational data next month. We do have some interesting indications already." The holocameras switched to a view of Earth from the "asteroids" long ranged sensor arrays, and emissions began to light up. Including a very odd gamma radiation sequence. But the database flagged them as Skrull and Kree, and Xiaoqiao's face became still as it pointed to one, identified as a "Reaper Satellite."

"Hm. Well. Designate that a priority threat, and keep our eyes on it." Xiaoqiao directed. "I think this means we'll have to work on the Industrial Fabricator project soonest. I'll keep my eyes open on Earth, as well."

"Understood."

Xiaoqiao headed to a segment within the base that housed the new Industrial Fabricators. With the base staffed, they were able to use the banks of the Arc Reactors properly now, and they had already done some testing and upgraded the stealth and lessened the emissions on the ship.

'Maybe I should prepare a fallback to the dark side of the moon.' Xiaoqiao suspected that gravitational deflectors would pick that up though. There was the asteroid belt, but that'd impose more requirements on fighters.

The Star of the Void would need to do a lot of things, and she was already not looking forward to it.

- Industrial Manufacturing - Xiaoqiao can now manufacturer parts without needing to.. well, create them herself. They aren't as good as her parts directly, but they are sufficiently close. (Also enables creating of starfighters.)

After discussing it, they came to the conclusion they could upgrade every weapon over the next three months, as well as prepare for (and build) very large particle cannons. But the problem was that the asteroid is a large target, and even if they did two sets of weapons so the base could become a dreadnought-class ship, they would need defenses.

The thing is, spacefighters are.. complex things. It would take time, or they'd need to take costly trade-offs. Also, some of the members there had.. some interesting suggestions.

Starfighter/Weapon Program Voting
- [ ] Weapons Focus (delays Starfighters for 4 months, raises Weapons to Very Good, adds in weapons such as the ULH Particle Cannon)
- [ ] Starfighter Focus (weapons will raise to Good, but not above that until after the Starfighter Program.)

Starfighter Options
- Just use Republic spacefighter bases. (Initial DC: 100). Note this is visibly alien, and will not be able to stealth.
-- [ ] Basic: Use the Aleph Fighter. (SWTOR.) (Will take 3 years to prototype. It's not a great option, but it'll work.) [DC 100 Craft(Advanced) checks each month to progress (170 to advance 2.)]
-- [ ] Upgrade: You could attempt to evolve it. (Will make the X-Wing fighter. +1 year to prototype.) [DC 140 Craft(Advanced) checks each month to progress (210 to advance 2.)]
-- [ ] Maximum Upgrade: There's a number of upgrades that could make it the ultimate starfighter. (Makes the E-Wing fighter.) (+2 years to prototype (5)) [DC 160/230 checks.]
- Use modified Current Era tech. (Note it'll be less effective, but also: a lot less obvious.)
-- [] What aircraft do you want to look like? Active aircraft are: F-15J, F-15E, F-117, Mirage 2000, F/A-18Hornet, Panavia Tornado, Saab 37 Viggen, Su-27, SHIELD Quinjet (Note, you will seem to be that nation, too)
-- [] Basic: Just modify your advanced tech into it. (1 year to prototype. DC 180/250 to advance, to represent the difficulty. Will not be as effective as the purposebuilt stuff as the Republic.)
-- [] Upgrade: Modify the form as needed to make it space compatibile and such. (2 years to prototype. DC 150/220 to advance. Will be average effectiveness.)
-- [] Maximum Upgrade: Don't even stick with the base form except for stealth recon and transport variants. (2.5 years to prototype. DC 140/210 to advance. Good effectivness)
-- [] Write In: But explain. Xiaoqiao has *seen* active deployments of 6th gen fighters and stuff like the F-35 (assume she's from the 2030s in her timeline), but she wasn't a military otaku, and you'd have better luck of arguing from an anime or TV show. (Which I will accept, especially as Xiaoqiao will be going through various settings, and therefore, can get access to the info.) (Subject to QM Veto.)

Starfighter Focus Options
- [ ] Normal staffing: This project has 100 people on it, which is the amount of people who will be in the spacefighter corps. (+15 to Craft(Advanced) rolls)
- [ ] Slight Focus (10 RP): Give them additioanl resources, which will make it 120 people. This will mean a slight less focus on intel gathering. (+30 to Craft(Advanced) rolls, all rolls are Advantage+ (3 tries))
- [ ] Additional People (30 RP): Create more people by retrocasual editing. This means they have 150 people. Xiaoqiao will have to do more life support and other crafting work to support this next turn. (DCs 120~130) (+60 to Craft(Advanced) rolls, all rolls are Advantage+)

Other Base Options:
- [ ] Divine Inspiration - Each month, can roll again for double progress. (2 AP)
- [ ] Reform the base into an asteroid basically encasing an armored shell encasing a battleship. (4 AP, takes 10 months.) (for 1 AP less, make it take 3 months longer.) (Will give the core base more defenses and three more module spaces.) (Trade off: Hitomi will lose half of her SP bonus to learning. Every turn, a 20% chance of missing something on Earth, as well.)
- [ ] Build Simulators for Training, as well as Practice. (4 AP, DC 135 Craft(Advanced)) (-1 module) [While simulators cannot be experience, they will be more prepared for what may come. It will mean you can deploy from the completion of the starfighter, but also, can keep your ground based forces skilled. Xiaoqiao can also use this to gain a temporary (1 turn) bonus against enemy types.)

Base Choices (pick one or the other)
- Communications (-1 module)
-- [ ] Communications Hub: This specializes in SIGINT and deployment of satellites and scanning/talking to communications. Xiaoqiao will have the ability to hear into things deeper and talk to most things. She will have less abilty to detect stealth/stealthy approaches.
-- [ ] Listening Post: Better sensors and intercepts, but less ability to read communications and no ability to talk to others not detectable on standard communications.
- War on Heaven (-1 module)
-- [ ] Train Staff and Operatives on Generic Combat - No special bonuses, but not weak to any particular tactic or force.
-- [ ] Demon Focus - Good against demons, may be less good against other force types.

General Other Base Infrastructure Stuff - note the more posts you get, the wider view of the solar system you get.
This can be taken once a year.
Currently, you do not expect any armadas or alien invasions en-masse.. but you've ran across a few isolated already. As such, maybe a limited deployment a bit further out might help. A widescale deployment is probably overkill. You think.

- [ ] Patrolling probe deployment (Each raises the chance of detection by others the closer they are deployed to the Venus<->Mars line. But it also gives you more warning of invading fleets.) (Deployment will start in 3 months.) [On transmigration, they'll go dormant.]
---[ ] Kuiper Belt Orbit (2 AP)
---[ ] Jupiter-Saturn orbit (2 AP)
---[ ] Asteroid Belt orbit (1 AP)
---[ ] Earth +.6month orbit (1 AP) (Risk of detection from: .. everyone.)
---[ ] Venus orbit (1 AP)

Your Actions
- Train and Build up Celestial Host Troops. (X AP) (+.5% Attack Power per X AP) (Take Infinity) [7 AP spent]
The commmitte members, including, you, have several gods of combat, and as such, you volunteer to train and build up troops from your own worlds and domains. Many are happy, a suspicious few are estatic at such a crusade, and you breath a sigh of relief that you can start training immortal and mortal forces. You suspect this will be ugly, before it's done.
[Celestial Attack Meter: 5.6% -> 9.1%]

- [MCU] The MCU universe has several Outside areas that could be used as traps for archdemons for cannon targets. (15 AP 100 Qi.) (-10% Underworld Attack Power) (Taken 0 times.)

Luring archdemons into the Outside realms of the MCU universe is.. well, risky. But your test works well. It reveals, though, you should not do this again until Xiaoqiao can deal with it. If it wasn't for the fact that the realm was inimical itself, the archdemon would have emerged onto the MCU universe. Also, most archdemons may be beyond her capabilities to pin down at this point. That said..

[Underworld Attack Power -10%: 99.7 - 10 -> 89.7%]
[Unlocks Quest "Master Travel to the Outside Of The Material Universe" 'You may have to fight in the Outside, the Superflow, etc. But if you can't get there..' '''Objectives''': Master Portal Travel to Realms, '''Rewards''': 20000 XP]
(Actions changed)

- Deal with one of the corrupted universes yourself. (Xiaoqiao Power Ranking: Medium) (3 AP) (Awards +10000 XP, Xiaoqiao will run her turn at half HP/Qi)(At 10 of these, Xiaoqiao will also gain an epithet.) (Random rewards) (Note: This will also eliminate worlds for transmigration.)
-- World One: Totally Not Outlaw Star

Xiaoqiao ..dreams?.. during meditation. It's a weird world, of colorful characters, but more importantly, it seemed to remind her of a lawless frontier. Down to the flashy not-neon signs, shootouts, and .... weird yin-yang robots.

She .. is just glad she has a caster gun, but even so she's not sure why she's here. Then.. well, she can't miss the surge of demonic power ahead. And.. well, she gets it now. There's a lot of outlaws there. A lot a lot. A crew seems to be skulking around, well armed.

And she can guess what they're trying to do, and well..

One of her weaknesses is that she can't stand by. So she decides to start with an energy draining bullet, followed by a regular bulletstorm with the second gun. This catches many of them off guard, and a full fledged firefight erupts. Xiaoqiao uses cover and switches to her area of effect bullets on the caster gun. Strangely, that draws more attention, before the technique goes off.

And then, well, Xiaoqiao got her taste of demonic magic and while she thought it was neat, and inspired a possible technique, it wasn't one she wanted to try and emulate right now. She would have to abandon the bullets for the techniques she could use directly, and fired back at the dark dragon with a pheonix technique, taking out most of the enemy in a go, and recieving support from the crew. Inside, she saw a woman in a tube with demonic energy attempting to flow into it.

In front of it was a succubus, and Xiaoqiao hit her with a flurry of holy strikes. If it hadn't been for the *other* caster gun, she might have lost. Purifying the tube and woman was also time consuming, but they got her out.. only to find that the building would be able to continually try, and Xiaoqiao investigated to discover the re-enforcement.. and deep well.

And more were coming out of it. Even when they resorted to a missile bombardment, it really didn't work too well. Xiaoqiao could figure out how, it was just.. draining to channel the sufficient amount of energy.

It was, paradoxically, more energy efficient.. and probably wiser long term.. just to direct a full blast of holy energy into it. So she did, and while it was a "normal" application to change energy types of a technique, the downside of how she utilized things is that it was more energy expensive, and took more time, requiring fire support.

(Roll against exhausting more than 1/2th Qi available. - 1d100+70 (+20 Kerian Pantheon) vs 100 -> 153, successful)

But it was done. And Xiaoqiao found herself waking up, wondering how real that was.

[Multiverse Corruption Meter -2.1% - 68% => 65.9%, Underworld Attack Meter -.5% - 89.7% => 89.2%]
[Rewards are dependent on Xiaoqiao's level, but will always be: Multiverse Corruption Meter, and one other stat]
[Other Rewards: 1d10 for type, 1d100 for how good -> 6, 20 (Knowledge/Skill Book; Terrible Quality); Gain a book that can impart knowledge on intricate woodcarvings on furniture.]
(Title Chance: 1d100 -> 85 (over 66) -> "An Outlaw In Space" 'Being an outlaw means you often have to rely on your wits.' (Gain +15 to sneak attack detection, +15 to sneak attack initation.)
(+10000 XP, 1/10 progress to Epithet)

Hitomi Phase
By now, she's splitting her time between the base, and maintaining the compound.. which has caused some looks - who has a foxgirl maid?

Which she has happily repaid by teaching the students learning there how to maintain by having them do it while she criticizes. Hitomi took some pride in her skills, after all.

The talk in the Soviet Union is.. slow. The security concerns, alone, after all. She is assigned to follow up on some mutant detection reports, and well..

[Encounter 1: The Ten Rings]
The first was in Central Asia, and .. well, Hitomi made several grim notes after having to dodge firepower that she'd need armor to explain why it didn't affect her much. Also, it'd be useful for her crew.

Her musings were cut short when the mutant? came out.. wearing a Ten Rings uniform. Great. Just lovely.

Their power was apparently over sand, and Hitomi solved *that* by flying up in the air.. and unleashing an energy blast at the area, killing the mutant, the cell, and crystalizing the area around them.

[+3400 XP. Respect (+15 Soviet Union, -10 Ten Rings)]
[Next turn, an armor option will be added to the base voting. Note this will also give Hitomi a "armor" appearence.]

[Location Roll: 37 Asia - Siberia]
[Encounter 2: A Cold Discovery]

Hitomi would rather not be here, but there was a peculiar reading detected from here and she had been contracted to investigate by SHIELD. It was in very remote Siberia, which was currently very warm, being summer, and she was baffled by the visible decrease in temperature. She almost wish she had brought a sensor platform, but she was very sure it was below 0 Celsius, and that was.. suspicious for June.

And while she had a good tolerance, -30 Celsius was still cold. Eventually, she reached a ice wrecked installation. And very dead bodies. She investigated further, and found.. well, what looked like an attempt at a fusion reactor that somehow was extremely endothermic. And she had to struggle to use the controls to disable it, and eventually had to just download the information and grab the journals and papers, move the bodies so they could be buried properly, and destroy the attempt.

After burying the bodies, and watching the temperature return to normal, she began iterating through the papers, and - as far as she could tell, this wasn't sabotage.. just an ill-fated attempt at fusion power.

Right..?

[+2300 XP, may have a follow up.]

- For that matter, Xiaoqiao is looking for things, maybe she should be nudged towards a suspiciously empty orbital starship that contains an amazing power... (3 AP 50 RP) (Note: This may derail a lot of MCU canon.)

With the approaching deployment of survelliance and sensor satellites, the odd gamma radiation trail isolated to a stealthed spaceship. If the platform didn't have some current gen galactic tech in it, she wasn't sure she'd be able to detect it. Still, she glided over, and maintaining the thin energy barrier that allowed her to be mostly shielded against cosmic radiation - she hadn't had time to test more than the ability to breathe in space - and.. she saw a cloaked ship, operating in no-emission mode. She.. very carefully boarded, and was immediately accosted by Kree refugees.

[Diplomacy Roll vs DC 160 (Extremely Suspicious) -> 1d100+95+1d23 => 55+95+23 -> 173]

It took her more time than she'd like to convince them about why she was here - namely, she could detect the gamma radiation from the ship. This alarmed them as they were.. unsure why the Starforce couldn't detect them.

[Gained Intelligence on faction: Kree Empire/Starforce]

When she reached the engine, Hitomi's eyes widened. This.. was -

[Will Save vs Baneful Teleport: 1d100+1d23+29 vs DC 80 => 89+21+29 => 139; Major Success]

.. well, she could see the Space Stone powering the Tesseract. And she was nearly space warped, but resisted it.

[Spellcraft Save: 1d100+1d23+69+55 (Divine Rank 2+Levels+Fate Defiance) => 72+19+124 => 215 vs 200]

[Xiaoqiao has gained the following powers from the Space Stone - "Portal Creation"]
[Any telekinetic ability can now be rolled to breakthrough deeper understanding at +100, possibly advancing two ranks]
[Instant Transmission gains two traits, and is now rolled at +100]
[Gain deeper understanding to power generation, as well as spatial manipulation.]
[Unlocks Base Upgrades to Active Shields and Power Generation]

"..huh." Xiaoqiao shook her head. Even without touching the Tesseract, she could see it's multiple timelines. And after a moment's thought, just built something to lower the gamma signature around it, and left it there. For now. She couldn't secure it, either.

Besides, she didn't want to interfere.. yet... with at least some events that occured in 1994.

[Xiaoqiao Level Check < 25; Cannot absorb further powers of the Space Stone, nor it's ability]
[QM Note: For *very* obvious reasons, most of the Infinity Stones's power are limited to this multiverse. She also will never be able to attain Thanos's control, either. That said, it offers her a significant power upgrade. She can absorb the first stone at level 25, then every 15 levels after it. The exceptions are:
- The Soul Stone, which Xiaoqiao will simply seperate Soulworld and destroy, if possible.
- The Power Stone, which only grants abilities that enhance and can be completely absorbed. Note that under level 50, Xiaoqiao cannot safely absorb this.

The stones can be safely destroyed once Xiaoqiao is Divine Rank 4. (The stones can be *unsafely* destroyed now, note this may have negative effects for whatever star system she's in, and will probably irritate Thanos immensely.)]

She did offer to up the internal defenses of the cruiser and remove some of the Kree overrides, which the refugees took up gratefully.

"I can also port some supplies here, as well." Xiaoqiao mentioned. "I'm going to test the technique I learned first, for obvious reasons, but if you can give me your chirality and other details, I'll get on it."

She gets it, then nodding, focuses herself and teleports herself back.

[+15000 XP]
[Gain upgrade options for personal weaponry, as well.]
[Next turn, a roll for upgrades will occur]

- Portal Room

Hitomi was pacing it, and then decided she wanted something that could permit up to two vehicles if scaled up, so she began building the emitters and testing it by point it to the Martian surface.

[Craft(Advanced) 1d100+1d23+71+60 (Speciality+Technique) vs DC 200 => 99+131=>230 vs 200; Success

The tests came back successful, meaning that they could now deploy.. if they needed to. The Portal room was then locked down with both digital nad physical interlocks, and defenses pointed inward at them.

[Spellcrafting 1d100+1d23+107+15 (Bonus) vs DC 160 (Divinly Hard) (Building a booster for interdimensional travel.) -> 26+17+15+107 = 165]

She manages to lay a runic circuit with symbology to allow her to use the room to boost her ability to teleport or create portals.

She faintly hears Heimdall mention to her that she should find a library - perhaps on Xander? He also provided coordinates, and warned her that it was still at war with the Kree Empire. There were also rumours of the Library of Worlds, but even he could not find them.]

Hitomi penciled that in for later, then. She did test it by testing theories on the portal.. but was very diverted, and realized.. she had entered the Realm of Death.

And was .. very confused as to why. Still, she advanced in. That was obviously a diversion. Ahead, she met what she presumed to be this universe's Death, a woman with a skeletal face, wearing a hood.

"Ci Xiaoqiao." She was greeted. "Do not interfere too liberally with this universe. It must flow."

Xiaoqiao peers at the figure, realizing it wasn't in fact, Death, per-se, as it wasn't an abstract entity. "I see." She also knows something's a bit wrong here.

"This -" Death was slower than her on the attack as Xiaoqiao released a bunch of Void energy, then shimmers, revealing a glammor. Xiaoqiao inexorably continued, revealing it to be an archdemon. "How did you know?"

"I just know when I am talking to a real Death." Xiaoqiao said. "And on top of that.." The space distorted, and a figure without shape or form entered. "I may be weak, untested, and only faintly aware, but even I can sense Oblivion." The archdemon was very silent as it was destroyed, and Xiaoqiao had to fight to maintain her calm. "Maiden of Endings, you may be called by me or Death to take out enemies of the Multiverse from time to time. They come from beyond - like you - but be aware, you're only tolerated as you work within existing powers, and are clearly trying to prepare for outside encursions. Be careful with that toy of yours. You are at least, distantly, and vaguely, a little sister, and I would like to see more of the Void exist." The being? pauses.

"Even if I disagree with your view on things. Still, it would be wise to work on your divine sense."

"t-Thank you." Xiaoqiao manages. She also returns and realizes she can transmission between locals, just that from other realms is extremely draining [-900 Qi at current level]

The problem is that she blew out the runic circle and power systems to the portal room, and cutoffs are now properly being added, as well as atmospheric processors - so she can't drag back hostile atmo.

[+20000 XP.]

- Shrine Room

By contrast, this was easy to set up. Xiaoqiao had selected a Shinto shrine surrounded by a traditional Chinese temple setup, and began the process of purifying and seeking blessing on it.

Thankfully, there are enough local gods that she gets a good blessing on it, and the blessing on her weaponry is also renewed and strengthened.


[Treaty of Leningrad event next turn]

Voting will likely close tonight or tomorrow at noon. Base options will likely begin to taper off. Note if you vote for another interlude, please suggest a world. (subject to QM Veto, but I'll work on something close.)
 
Due to some circumstances, I'm unlikely to have time to make a plan within a day or two. Maybe someone will compile it in my absence, but if not, I will do it when the opportunity arises.
 
[X] Plan: Starfighter/Weapon Program Voting
- [X] Weapons Focus (delays Starfighters for 4 months, raises Weapons to Very Good, adds in weapons such as the ULH Particle Cannon)
-[X] Maximum Upgrade: There's a number of upgrades that could make it the ultimate starfighter. (Makes the E-Wing fighter.) (+2 years to prototype (5)) [DC 160/230 checks.]
- [X] Additional People (30 RP): Create more people by retrocasual editing. This means they have 150 people. Xiaoqiao will have to do more life support and other crafting work to support this next turn. (DCs 120~130) (+60 to Craft(Advanced) rolls, all rolls are Advantage+)
-[X] Other Base Options:
--[X] Divine Inspiration - Each month, can roll again for double progress. (2 AP)
--[X] Reform the base into an asteroid basically encasing an armored shell encasing a battleship. (4 AP, takes 10 months.) (for 1 AP less, make it take 3 months longer.) (Will give the core base more defenses and three more module.) (Trade off: Hitomi will lose half of her SP spaces bonus to learning. Every turn, a 20% chance of missing something on Earth, as well.)
--[X] Build Simulators for Training, as well as Practice. (4 AP, DC 135 Craft(Advanced)) (-1 module) [While simulators cannot be experience, they will be more prepared for what may come. It will mean you can deploy from the completion of the starfighter, but also, can keep your ground based forces skilled. Xiaoqiao can also use this to gain a temporary (1 turn) bonus against enemy types.)
-- [X] Listening Post: Better sensors and intercepts, but less ability to read communications and no ability to talk to others not detectable on standard communications.
- War on Heaven (-1 module)
-- [X] Train Staff and Operatives on Generic Combat - No special bonuses, but not weak to any particular tactic or force.
--[X] Patrolling probe deployment (Each raises the chance of detection by others the closer they are deployed to the Venus<->Mars line. But it also gives you more warning of invading fleets.) (Deployment will start in 3 months .) [On transmigration, they'll go dormant.]
---[X] Kuiper Belt Orbit (2 AP)
---[X] Jupiter-Saturn orbit (2 AP)
---[X] Asteroid Belt orbit (1 AP)

This is a serious investment, but I think it will pay for itself. Also, how many database modules are available? A separate information sheet for the database was in great demand.

[X] Plan: Level up.
-[X] 3 to Vitality and 3 to Intelligence/
-[X] 3 to Perform(Singer) and Profession(Maid), and 4 to Spellcrafting.
-[X] Feat: Demon Hunter. Thanks to experience, Xiaoqiao receives a bonus to perception against Demons and to resisting their magic.

Let's trust Xiaoqiao's opinion. I hope the feat works correctly.

[X] Plan: Calm before the storm.

----[X] 13 AP.
--- [X] Equip Celestial Host Troops. (25*N RP) (+.5% Attack/Defense Power per N)
----[X] 175 RP.

There's not much that can be done right now. I'm still not sure about the Ancient One's fate and what can be done about it. What kind of philosophy are we following here?
 
I'm torn on the Ancient One but considering you need to take on the dark dimension it's possible.

I'll elaborate on the database this turn too
 
.. base. the modules mainly represent that there's a limit to bonii if im honest but I'm going to make a sheet for it and remove it from the per turn tracker except for in progress things.

post delayed but is under construction.

Somehow, making a battleship stat sheet have the right nonsense is.. difficult. (i.e "useful stats without having nonsensical numbers.")
 
Okay, so I'm going to work on posts and hope to have one out tomorrow. For the ship, I'm going to link designs so people can pick one in the next vote.
 
Base Stats
Star of the Void
Status as of: June 1990

Appears to be an asteroid of the Apollo group. It contains many shielded gun and shield emitters on the surface, as well as a sliding hangar door. Two more are being built to match the other bays on the base.

There are self-destruct charges, as well, to prevent technology leakage.

The drives of the base are carefully vented to spread out and prevent a single plume, and operators often rely on gravity capture rather than engine output.

Currently, the base inside is being moved and connected to form a capital ship, a dreadnought-class starship.

Base: Star of the Void, Dreadnought (Large Capital Carrier)
Current Location: MCU, Earth-Sun L2 point.
Population: 1300
Stats:
  • Armor: 4000 Good -> 7000, Very Good (in June 1992)

  • Weapons: Pending vote, but OK (Staffing Bonus) -> Very Good (in October 1990)
  • Power: Good (11 of 17 Arc Reactors Mk II installed.)
  • Engines: Very Good, FTL Capability: No

Active Weapons:
Missile Launchers (Very minimal available missiles)
CIWS Phalanx Array System
Turbolaser Arrays
Repeater Rail Cannons (Asteroid only)

[Under Construction]6x Ionic Cannon Turrets (Completion October 1990) [Requires ship to be separated from asteroid]
[Under Construction]1x (Primary) ULH Particle Cannon (Completion October 1990)

Probe Deployments:
  • Kuiper Belt Orbit (Expected deployment August 1990, expected activation September 1990)
  • Jupiter-Saturn Orbit (Expected deployment July 1990, expected activation October 1990)
  • Asteroid Belt Orbit (Deploying, expected activation August 1990)

Special Features:
  • Built Into An Asteroid - The Asteroid provides additional armor and stealth.
  • Folding and Hidden Docking Bays - When not in use, the bays can be effectively hidden.
  • Archive Library - (..+15 to Knowledge and Linguistics)
  • Crew: Skilled Foxgirls (+30 to all rolls) (High Ability)
  • Strategic Coordination Room (Weapons Accuracy Rolls +50 total)
  • Secondary Command Center
  • Industrial Fabricators -> current priority: spare parts, munitions, testing models.
  • Shrine Room [+10 Armor/Dodge, +50 damage/to-hit to demons]
  • Portal Room - Incomplete.
  • Starfighter/Hangars - (Queued)
  • (Being Built) Simulators - Provides training in a variety of mostly accurate simulations and environments. (Provides constant training of (+3 sp) to relevant skills, allows for slow trickle of experience (1000 XP a month.)[Completion: November 1990]
  • (Being Built) Listening Post - Sensors are able to detect more hidden and stealthed entities, but less ability to read nonstandard communications if it is not set up for it. (Completion: October 1990)
  • Empty Module

Base Changes

- Ship Form
[ ] Something like a WW2 battleship Space Battleship Yamato (Note: has more CIWS and cannonry. ULH becomes Wave Motion Gun)
[ ] Something like a mecha anime battleship Hiryu Kai (ULH cannon becomes the Bow Super Gravity Impact Cannon)
[ ] Large mecha battleship Dreisstager (Note: This is 2km in length.)
[ ] Something like a sci-fi battleship Mon Calamari Capital Ship
[ ] Write In, subject to veto.

- Armor

Xiaoqiao concluded they needed some form of armor, and spent a week looking at existing armor. The problem is she didn't want to go so far as later mech exosuits, but increasingly, it would make more sense for providing some protection against space.

So, she was thinking about a set of different armors - with the mech exoskeletons meant for extreme uses. And also a bit larger than one person, to provide them with tools and weapons.

But right now she just wanted better armor. Something for stealth uses, maybe...

[ ] Basic "Earth inspired" Republic-era armor (Protection: Good; Obvious, some restrictions on movement) (Completion: September 1990)
[ ] Stealth chic - more Earth masked (Protection: OK, Good movement and less obvious.)
[ ] Magic-weaved kimonos and others. Incredibly obvious, time consuming (Xiaoqiao has to make each set), but best protection and good on movement. (Completion: March 1991)
[ ] Skip this, go for large mech exosuits. (think larger but sleeker Iron Mongers, built for multiple uses with carrying capacity. May not have the same weapons.) (Completion: 199X) [Think something like this instead of something like Iron Man armors.]

Options not taken now can be taken later, but may have longer durations.

- Shields

Xiaoqiao had been considering. The Space Stone had shown her how to manipulate space on a deeper level, and she was looking at the deflectors in a new light. Namely, they were inferior strictly to a system that could sharply increase gravity and create spatial fractures.

And as such, she put that on the to do list. Maybe even research a way to do it on the personal level.

(4 months, replace shield generators with "Space-Time Gravitional Fracture Barriers", Shields become Extremely Good)

- Changes
The command team, after thought, seemed to agree that weapons now made sense, fighters later.

They gave the small team building it carte blanche, and they returned with what htey called the Voidfighter
(Protoype duration: 5 years to first fighter.)
(DC 160/230 checks)

Thankfully, Xiaoqiao had more people now, and she went and improved the life support and rooms.

[Craft(Advanced) 1d100+1d23+61+60 => 1d100+1d23+121 => 106+121 => 227, Sublime Success]
[The life support system is a marvel of engineering now, and Xiaoqiao makes sure to write down full schematics and build instructions, for later use. Comfort++ for the base.]

In addition, several rooms dedicated to the starfighter building and testing are added far off from the rest of the base, which now boasts a tram system with the population it has.

- Arc Reactor

The power used by the Space Stone was.. fascinating. The Arc Reactor could be shrunk and improved, certianly, but she felt that might be more used for personal weapons or armor, or for nodal uses.

She could use the Tesseract's source, but she rather suspected that wherever the energy was coming from, she didn't want to rely on it.

This meant she could either deploy..
[ ] Arc Reactor Mk III (ten times the output, half size) [more power, but more maintenance, and more people needed] OR
[ ] Void-wave Reactor Mk I (10 RP)(fifty times the output, same size) [Less people needed to maintain, less fuel]

and potentially..
[ ] put backup miniture MK II in places (1 AP) to ensure constant supply to critical systems if engineering went down
[ ] have a backup power core (3 AP)

But she started making better alloys, compressing and strengthening them, while she worked out the best design. It was good practice.

It also let her work out some preperations for the portal room, as well.

[Matter Conversion/Transference/Compression +10 for breakthrough chance]

Meanwhile, after a vote, they started a company on Earth, to act as a front for their operations to get rations, and also, because there were experiments with current level Earth tech they could do to focus on say, combating climate change.

(And totally not because Xiaoqiao had serious concerns about the US monopoly on power, and knew what it could lead to, as well as a jaundiced view to Stark International being a weapons broker.)

(And extremely totally not because they wanted to experiment with life support systems, or various ways of keeping themselves fed, etc...)

This should be located in..
[ ] Australia (Consequence: Some concerns with the government, also a Five-Eyes member.) (Technology bias: materials, green energy.)
[ ] Oceania (Consequenes: Some down the lines with China, or the Phillipines, will also be focusing on various ocean cleanup and mainteance functions, biasing the recieved technology.) (technology bias: materials, ocean remediation)
[ ] Africa (Consequences: Will have to provide own security, and probably focus on building infrastructure, and in worst-case scenarios, have to assist SHIELD with nation stability. Technology bias: farming)
[ ] South America (Consequences: Expect a lot of political pressure over the companies green policies, esp it's Amazon policies. Technology bias: arcologies, green energy, farming)
[ ] North America (Canada, Far North) (Consequences: Focus on weather issues, will likely need to fight off US influence on certain issues.) (Technology bias: arcologies, weapons)
[ ] Antarctica (Consquences: A lot of the people with claims to Antartica will be unhappy with you. The people stationed there will be happy. Supplies will likely need to be ported via the base.) (technology: tiny-arcologies, materials, farming)
[ ] Write-In if you have a specific non China or Russia or US region, with two tech biases. If you give it additional consequences, you can add a tech bias. Subject to QM Veto.

(QM Note: This is largely a cover, but Xiaoqiao will seek to bias it towards things benefical to Earth long term, and also provide people with wages and spending money. This means it'll be a voting option, as well. That said, it's going to be a minor element unless people vote for options that put it front and center, such as "help fund AIM's research into EXTREMIS")

- The first probe, the Asteroid Belt, was deployed and sent out on silent thrusters.
No one picked it up.. you think. (See Interlude)

- Train Staff and Operatives on Generic Combat - No special bonuses, but not weak to any particular tactic or force.

Meanwhile, drills started, trying to get the personnel up to a good standard (42) - and so far, they're trying. Thankfully, you have time.

(roll increases every month until they reach Excellent standard.)
Your Actions
- Train and Build Celestial Host Troops (13 AP)
Celestial Attack Power: 9.1 +6.5 => 15.6%

The attack power is rising, but you know it's nowhere near the ability of the underworld to attack, nor can it withstand their attack. But it's progress.

-Start hunting down concentrations of demonic powers for Xiaoqiao to investigate

You locate a few worlds in the current universe, and a few worlds to move to as soon as you can.

[You gain the choice of "Topeka PD [Not L&O]", "Tales of Sahirn [Fantasy Anime (Dungeons)]", and "Decia, Knight of the Stars" [Sci-Fi/Fantasy Mix] for next oneshot. Xiaoqiao has two target worlds in this universe once she can reliably portal.]

Peculiarily, it's not obvious for a few, that worries you.

- Equip Celestial Host Troops
Celestial Defense Meter: 6.1% + 3.5% => 9.6%
Celestial Attack Meter: 15.6% + 3.5% => 19.1%

You work on equipping the troops further, and make a bit of progress.

Hitomi Phase

The world's leaders met in a summit to bring the cold war to an end, and bring a new era of peace. Many security agencies were providing support, and Hitomi had been asked as a consultant to assist.

This proved to be prescient, as several attempts to derail the summit occured.

[1d100 => 2]

There was a variety of forces, and the security staff was ran ragged trying to keep up with it, with only SHIELD and Hitomi largely on top of things.

At the end of it, though, an argument about disarmament occured. The US was trying to push for limited disarmament and non proliferation, and many were arguing with the representative of President Bush.

Fairly, Hitomi thought, but she was biased against them. It was the fifth day of the summit, when she was resisting the urge to snap.

She had been fighting with HYDRA agents and various terrorists who didn't even have a name
[Damage to HYDRA: 36; Moderate damage to European assets.]

And when one of the delegates showed a willingness to put nuclear threats into play, she snapped.

"Do you want to know what happens when you launch nuclear weapons?" Hitomi snapped, her magic making her tails and hair float. "Let me show you."

And she shows them how her world died - in a massive nuclear exchange. First was the alarms, over where she lived in Ikebukuro, and how she was one of the few to make the bunkers set up in the late 2030s.

But it wasn't enough. Having to watch her wife die of radiation poisoning in front of her - the slow death of radiation poisioning and running out of food - seeing the ham radio and other sources drop off one by one after the global internet collapsed.

In the end, even the satellite connections gave out, but gave a horrifying view of a dead world.

There was collective silence at the emotions released. And then...

The Treaty of Leningrad was a surprise to all not involved - the world's leaders pledging to rid the world of nuclear weapons.

Those present, however, know the truth. They saw the effects of nuclear war - through it's only survivor, Xiaoqiao. And they saw an Earth die. Maybe even their future if they were uncareful.

As such, the world moved towards peace, and away from nuclear weapons. There was a lot of effort under the scenes, though..

[Treaty of Leningrad and Nordic Accords signed. +15000 XP, gain Epithet next turn.]
[Soviet Union joins the Security Council.]
[HYDRA is eliminated from SHIELD by October 1990, gains anti-terrorism mandate.]
[Tensions in the Middle East begin to increase..]

- Interaction 1 (very fortunate, major reward) [Eastern Europe]

Hitomi was traveling through Eastern Europe on a mission - mostly looking into some supplies and a few reclusive genius engineers she could hire.

Her company was looking to do various things, and no matter it's eventual goal, she needed to have skilled people in it.

This village, though..

Well, she got the feeling she was being eyed for a knife in her back. And she didn't like it. And she wasn't even LOOKING for someone here, they were just nearby.

She sensed someone about to take a shot at her, but before they coudl fire, a man fired first, with a silver arm.

"...They don't like outsiders around here." He said to Hitomi. "What are you here for?"

"I am here to talk to Anton Minovsky." She said promptly. "I read a paper of his on optimized farmland, and wanted to talk to him about it."

"... Farmland?" He says, as if he couldn't believe her.

"Farmland. I'm interested in .. shall we say challenging environments to grow crops in?"

"He might be interested. I know he moved out here to get away from Stark and his goons wanting new weapons."

Hitomi deep sighs. "I swear no one from that comp-. Got it."

"I'll escort you." He says, abruptly. "HYDRA is still out here."

Hitomi just nods, not wanting to get into it.

And it turns out that HYDRA was still out there- the two find themselves under attack, and both clearly priortized. But against the Winter Solider and Hitomi, the entire platoon was wiped out.

"Who are you?" He says in amazement.

"I am Hitomi Takeda. I work with SHIELD sometimes, so they don't like me." Hitomi says matter of factly. "It probably didn't help I exposed them."

"No.. but anyone working against HYDRA is a friend of mine. Bucky Barnes."

".. Bucky Barnes?" Hitomi blinks. "From the Howling Commandos? I'm impressed."

A brief explanation ensued, and Hitomi's eyes narrowed. "I .. have some people to chase down, I see. Such a thing cannot be tolerated."

"I am on it, but we can exchange contact info? I could use an ally."

Hitomi nods, the two exchange info, and she goes to meet this mysterious scientist.

[Gain Contact(The Winter Solider), +6000 XP, unlocks later quest, gain scientist for company.]

- Interaction 2 (mysterious) [Central China]

Hitomi was on vacation again, traveling through Central China. This was a working vacation, as she had heard some disturbing rumours emnating out of central china.

But she only reached a bit before she could tell she was in a mystical realm. And .. a lot of mystical monsters. She was having to unleash her skills, and flying around on her sword a lot. It was actually a good workout, and she found herself enjoying it.

But why she was here?

'Don't forget, little one. You have not yet changed your fate..' A voice comes to her, and she finds herself on a mountain in China.

What was that about?

[+9000 XP]

- Interaction 3 (minor) [Mysterious Lands - Indian Ocean]
Hitomi was.. okay, look, she had to go to Australia to interview someone, and she was flying across the ocean. On her sword. Through storms and rain.

She was enjoying every second of it. It was a challenge to attune her shields to the lightning, and it was a great way to cultivate her inner energy. But she suddednly encountered a hole in the clouds, and spotted an island that should not exist, and from what little orbital survelliance she had, did not exist.

She .. also found that she could not approach it entirely. It was keeping her out. She managed to fly around it, but found that really odd...

[+3000 XP, later quest unlocked.]

- Interaction 4 (major) [Australia]

Reaching Australia, Hitomi.. found herself the focus of a lot of official attention. It probably didn't help she didn't spend much time in the cities, but headed towards rural Australia to meet a reclusive scientist who had applied.

However, they had applied, and she was curious how they could help.

And she .. found that there was a lot of people there who were very nervous about a "mutant".. or a kitsune. She talked them down, and managed to talk to the scientist.. and probably has a new hire.

Sheet updated. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask. I plan to end voting on Saturday afternoon when I should have time to write.
 
I have just been informed I will be unable to write until Saturday *evening*. If no one has a plan up by then, I'll hold off a few extra days.
 
Okay, so it's Wednesday.

I've been thinking. With interest as it is, it might be better to simply focus on *one* aspect of this quest in a restart, instead of the hydra this has become.

And so far, that's base building, although I've contemplated either cultivation or a more directed transmigration with limited carry over.

That said, that'd still be a few weeks out, as classes will slow any posting cycle down.
