Again, how did you get any of that from this?
"Miss Laura!" Captain Harry suddenly shouts. "One more thing!"

You glance down as the cockpit hatch opens. "Yes?"

He takes a deep breath. "In the White Doll…have you ever…seen anything strange?"

You look into the cockpit.

His gun shot up at the figure before the Transference Gate. "Freeze!" One of his subordinates called out to him, but Harry ignored him. Standing in front of the Gate with her back turned to the royal guardsmen was a tall woman wearing armor similar to his own. At his shout she turned her head, revealing the curious flower pattern in her eyes before her face fell in despair. Harry blinked, and she was gone.

"SIR!"

Harry jumped at the shout, turning to come face to face with his subordinates.

"Sir," The guardsman stressed. "There is nobody there."

"Yes." Harry agreed as he holstered his pistol. "Of course." He was about to apologize when the Gate let out a chime.

--[X] (Lie) "…I don't see anyone."

I mean there seems to be an AU plot of sorts that's trying to explain how the whole cycles thing works and this seems to be the way to find out more about that. I doubt the AU plot is going to just fizzle out of existence if we ignore it so it's probably best to be prepared.

Week 5
Week 5 (Week 5 of the Lunar-Inglessan Dispute).

[X] Canon.
--[X] "I've never seen anything, no."



You shake your head. "I've never seen anything, no." With that you bid the Royal Guardsmen farewell and bring the White Doll back to Bostonia. The castle is a mess of guards and guest milling about, including a mixed cluster of Dianna Counter soldiers and Royal Guardsmen escorting Queen Dianna to a shuttle out of Nocis.

When you exit the White Doll you are quickly ushered into Lord Guin's office. His Pressure radiates with barely-restrained frustration and more than a little fear, but there is a sense of relief in there too.

Kihel, who is in the room with him, is the first to notice you. "Loran!"

Lord Guin, tie undone and dinner jacket slung over the chair he is lounging in, perks up when he realizes you are there. "Laura. Glad you could make it."

You swallow. "What happens now, sir?" The assassins may have failed to kill Her Majesty, but they might have succeeded in killing the negotiations.

He sits up. "Thankfully, Queen Dianna has been very understanding and is willing to continue the talks. Though her adjutant did have some demands of us." He stands up. "Get some rest Laura. Tomorrow is going to be a busy day."

You sleep like a rock after exerting your Pressure like you did, and when morning comes the first thing you do is check on the White Doll. The odd shell on its backpack that was covering the alleged pistol has crumbled during the night, revealing the weapon underneath the rock and soil. Of course, the White Doll's diagnostics system assures you that no matter how clean it might look, it is still heavily damaged.

It still works, but you best be aware of the dangers.

Lord Guin wanted you to go on some patrols later in the week, but until then you have a few days left to yourself. You decide to-


Choose 2

[] Practice with the White Doll.

[] See if you can find Sochie and Miashei.

[] Experiment with Pressure.

[] Check on Keith and Fran.

[] Visit the Heim mines to see what Sid and Joseph have found up there.

[] Go on some extra patrols.

[] Spend time with Kihel.

What are the mechanics for the lightwave shield?

I can't find any indications in the combat where we used it.

Edit: Actually, I can't figure out the precise I-Field mechanics either. Looks like it's an anti-beam ablative barrier that takes damage on a failed I-Field save if it's up and nullifies it on a successful save?

Got it in one on the I-Field. As for the Lightwave Shield, it is more of the same but works on Kinetic and Explosive damage too. However, it only works on attacks from the targeted enemy (or attacks coming from the same direction).

I see.

Is there any penalty for activating both at once?
 
Storywise there shouldn't be, but for gameplay reasons activating both at once caps their Integrity at half its max value (2 for both of them in this case).

I really should have made this clear earlier.
Ugh.

Even so, two saves are better than one.

In that case:
[x] One of the White Doll's systems. (System gains 1d100 Condition)
--[x] Left Arm Lightwave Shield


Slightly less than four turns on average to upgrade this one.

[x] Practice with the White Doll.

[x] Visit the Heim mines to see what Sid and Joseph have found up there.


Hopefully we can pick up an additional ranged option.
