Professor Etheric 21st Jun 2016, 11:01 PM edit delete

Sometimes Mercy is more than a name...

For reference, Crawford Tillinghast is a character from H.P. Lovecraft's "From Beyond".

Also, Sophie is kind of an expert on alternate realities. Mercy is more concerned with her own reality.

That poster comes to us courtesy of lirvilas, producer of Winners and Losers and MSV. He produced it in response to one of our 30 Days of Characters entries, April Anne Price, who is also a member of the Children of Gaea coven (which is, or course, currently missing three of its members. April Anne is also Sophie's BFF.

I was hoping Nestor was going to be a long-eared donkey. Someone who studies alternate universes is even better, though!

Also, did the cult really have a sign on the front of their building proclaiming that it was the base of a cult?

Professor Etheric 21st Jun 2016, 11:19 PM edit delete reply

Religious freedom. It's not common knowledge that they are an evil cult. Most people tend to think they're just some New Age weirdos...

Podgor 21st Jun 2016, 11:20 PM edit delete reply

Ah, so they pretty much think it's like a Dianetics building, then.

Professor Etheric 21st Jun 2016, 11:26 PM edit delete reply

Something like that, yes.

Contextual density increasing: Takira, the AK-47 of disillusioned IT employees and fly-by-night hackers. Can't wait to see one of those bad boys used in anger.

(All your other characters aside--talking about you, Bish--I'm missing me some Falchionne.)

All in service of building the world, sir.

We are currently in talks re: who's appearing when. Your interest is duly noted. :)

I'm missing me some rich-guy's purple-haired daughter and her former lover/best friend...

(No names, no pack drill)...

Noted!

So did the bearded guy turn Pastafarian? :)

Mercy's shades, are her eyes still glowing or is that just a reflection?

Professor Etheric 22nd Jun 2016, 1:55 AM edit delete reply

Pastafarian, Discordian, Subgenius, Gardnerian Wiccan, Unitarian, Buddhist, Catholic... ANYTHING other than Starry Wisdom.

That is a reflection. The glow would be more blue and leaking out of the sunglasses. :)

A physicist... studying parachronisms... in the 1920s?!?

Even though I'm still working I think I need to take two shots of Jaegermeister now.

Professor Etheric 22nd Jun 2016, 10:42 AM edit delete reply

Lovecraft had characters looking outside of our reality by way of science in that time, so yeah, it's fair game. :)

anonymous coward 22nd Jun 2016, 3:06 PM edit delete reply

Oh, well, if you're going to be drinking that deep from the well of Lovecraft all I can say is that I'll be expecting something special when it comes time for the alien geometries.

Professor Etheric 22nd Jun 2016, 5:12 PM edit delete reply

Have you heard about our new anageometric aperture foundries?

Our technobabble is purposeful.

anonymous coward 22nd Jun 2016, 8:27 PM edit delete reply

Yes, that was the title, that was what they were working on, but I didn't see any angles and intersections breaking my sanity there. C'mon, you can do better than that, I passed my SAN check without even needing to roll on that one.

Professor Etheric 22nd Jun 2016, 8:35 PM edit delete reply

We shall see what we can do...

azureXtwilight 22nd Jun 2016, 2:48 AM edit delete reply

How do you determine which is "Mercy's Stuff" and "Sophie's Stuff"?

Ah, maybe I wouldn't want to know...

Professor Etheric 22nd Jun 2016, 10:46 AM edit delete reply

Sophie has more experience with dimensions, intelligence gathering, and research.

Mercy is a field agent, and more experienced with fighting, action, and interrogation.

lirvilas 22nd Jun 2016, 6:22 PM edit delete reply

"Is the phrase small joint manipulation applicable?"

If yes: Mercy's stuff.

Professor Etheric 22nd Jun 2016, 8:35 PM edit delete reply

Yes. :)
