The Fine Mr. Jezerit.

Selidor- an allusion to a certain quote concerning the words 'cellar door'.

Jezerit- an allusion to a certain group of witches in Frank Herbert's Dune.

Anyhow, my insane human character; also the narrator of my 'sparratically' violent short story. Yes, he is left handed. Yes, he has heterochromatic eyes. No, it's not supposed to be gold, it's supposed to be brown. But I forgot to change it. Eh.

-P.

p.s. I'm assuming we can still post here even with the new MOAG site? Which looks absolutely breathtaking, by and by.
p.p.s. I bought a special dice set for Selidor today (with Juanito and X-zebo) ... it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.

More for the MOAG site:

OK, I think we should have a bit of a contest for a MOAG logo. Looking at the site, I noticed it's missing something important. I think we should make a general logo for MOAG. ..as long as Mr. Wire agrees at least.

The M.O.A.G. site is officially live. Let's keep it that way.

Okay, so I've updated all the HTML and CSS pages, so we have everything that is done so far, which isn't much.  Get a hold of Shadowwire to find out what he wants you to write up, draw, eat, whatever, and let's get this all down.  

If there's enough interest, I might be convinced to travel down on a weekend and give those whom Shadowwire deems worthy a quick class in editing HTML.  It's not that difficult, but we want to control it so none of the CSS and layout is ruined, which can happen very easily.  I do it all the time.

I've added a link section to the right here, so we can link to the site from the blog.  I'll put a link on the site back, when I can.  I've also added my blog, and feel free to add other links, as long as we are personally involved in them, like Squirell, you can link to your other blog, but let's not link to ESPN or something like that.

Anyway, sorry it took so long, I've been working on something else.  You can view it here.

Anyway, back to work!

Fermi paradox

Wiki "Fermi paradox". Just do it. What better way to explain what Im thinking right now! I love WIKIPEDIA! My home away from ho,... Wait. I can be there and at home.. Like I am now! Yay! isnt technology great?

Speaking of Technology, The official M.O.A.G Website (www.mastersofallgalaxies.com) is now under construction! Not much to look at yet, but it will be in the near future. We have waited countless generations for this time. A few more days wont kill us. . . . Or will it?

Hope you like this post. One of the other stories posted got me thinking. What else was going on in the city? What if there was somting else happening during the hunt?



Out of breath Mark ran down the subway tunnel. Looking for a safe haven. Where had these creatures come from? Why? The air was so filled with smoke and death. Growing up in New York, Mark knew how to take care of himself. But this wasn't what he was used to. He was.... scared. He heard footsteps somewhere behind him. Please.... please don't let them find me. The wall to the left of him seemed to turn to fire, as he was knocked to the ground.
Mark scrambled to his feet, "Damn, what do you want? leave me alone!!!!"
He was greeted by a low rumbling sound, was that a laugh? Before he could run the large metal creature grasped him by the waist. With one giant hand it lifted him to its face. Mark struggled to get free. He didn't stand a chance, but he had to try. Pain shot through him, and everything went dark.
Mark woke in a room filled with other people. Two of the giant creatures where at the only door. He was alive..... how? "Ooh my head. What did they do?" Another man sitting in the room was complaining. "Don't worry," another said. "These ones aren't here to hurt you.?
"What do you mean?" asked Mark. The man looked at Mark, no visible expression on his face. "Its a long story, lets wait tell the others wake up."
Mark rubbed his head, such a headache. "Fine by me, I can hardly see straight anyway."
The door opened, and another creature came in with a woman in his left hand and another two men in his right. It tossed them into the room and left. One of the Guards inspected the prisoners. It found that one of the men had a broken arm. It made some strange noises, and took off its helmet. Helmet.... these where not machines.... what..... they where so large.... and....
This took Mark, and a few others off guard. A woman in the room screamed. Another man found an opportunity, and charged the alien creature. But the creature saw him coming and casually knocked him away, a good 45 feet away. And from the way the man landed Mark strongly suspected that the man was ether dead, or would be without urgent medical attention. The creature made a disappointed sound. And spoke some strange language to the other guard. The strange man sitting in the corner said, "The captain wont be happy, we came to save as many as we could." Mark turned to the man, but lost for words just stared. "Suppose it is time to let you know...."
There was gun fire outside the door, and several explosions. Then the door opened and about fifteen of the creatures came through. They grabbed as many "prisoners" as they could carry, which turned out to be quite a few. The strange man grabbed Mark. He was incredibly strong. One of the guards pointed a gun at the wall far wall. And the others moved away from the wall. The creature pulled the trigger twice and put a large hole in the wall. The creature carried away the prisoners. And the strange man pulled Mark away. "We have to move or you will all die." The gun fire was getting closer, and Mark looked back. More of the creatures where fighting there way into the room. They tossed down several devices and ran with the others, away from the battle. Mark saw another creature running after them. The creature fired multiple shots at the group. And one of the big creatures carrying prisoners was hit. The armor was badly damaged and one of the prisoners was killed. The injured creature tossed the surviving prisoner to another, and turned to fight the oncoming hostels. Mark saw the devices open and begin firing on the creatures that where coming for them. Mark didn't get to see much more of the battle. Three ships came into view and picked up the crew and prisoners.

more to come.......

Jadak 4: Communication Log (Archive #DS1P3P4s)

This was a fun one to write. I hope everyone enjoys the format I put it in. Sorry it is so long and sorry that it comes so quickly after the last entry. I'm just getting really bored lately and this story is in the front of the queue. Also, remember that you can freshen up on this story by clicking on the Sarg/Garg label at the bottom of this post. Thanks again guys, keep on keepin' on.

CSO/ This is Chief Science Officer, Qillus Tann. Can you hear me Jadak 4? Repeat;... (interference) ...Jadak 4?

CommO/ Captain Argus. Incoming transmission from Shuttle2. You wanted to speak to him?

Capt/ About time. Mr. Tann, how are things going?

CSO/ Not too goo... (interference) aulty comm sys... (interference) You are coming in rather poorly. There seems to be a... (interference) ...hear me?

CommO/ Sir, Tann's signal is cutting in and out. Wasn't Shuttle2 scheduled for maintenance due to trouble with the comm system and engines?

Capt/ Yes, but I scheduled him for launch clearance a full hour after the maintenance was supposed to occur. That should have given the repair crew ample time to get that thing fully operational.

Find any information you can about this, immediately.

CommO/ Yes, sir.

Capt/ Mr. Tann, we are getting a lot of interference on our end as well. Are your engines operational? Repeat: Are your engines operational?

CSO/ Negat... (interference) ...t I could to the comm system to get them ru... (interference) ...I'm a Scien... (interference) ...ot a technician. (interference) things are good down...

Capt/ Intelligent? More so than you realized before?

CSO/ Affirmative... (interference)... and curious.

CommO/ Sir, the maintenance on Shuttle2 was rescheduled from 0900 to 1100 hours--

Capt/ and Mr. Tann was cleared to launch at 1000 hours. Who authorized the change in schedule?

CommO/ Chief Security Officer Prink. He changed them at 0850.

Capt/ That son of a bitch! Get Prink here right now!

CommO/ I can't, Sir. He took Shuttle1 down to the surface. He took a few of his security team with him.

Capt/ Damn it! Get him on another channel! He is going to spend some time in his own brig!

CommO/ Uhhh... I can't do that either, Sir. I have tried. He appears to have shut off the comm system and has not responded to several hales.

Capt/ What the hell did he go down there for?!

CommO/ The reason he gave in the log is: Recreation.

Capt/ On a desert planet? What could that idiot be doing down there that he can't do on this ship?

CommO/ I don't know, Sir.

Capt/ Prep Shuttle3, I'm going down there myself and bring Prink back dead or alive!

CommO/ Uhhh....

Capt/ WHAT NOW?!!!

CommO/ Sir, all the other shuttles are down. They took heavy damage from our last mission. 1 and 2 are the only ones operational.

Capt/ Aaarrgghhh. (sound of heavy object being slammed.) Keep trying that backstabbing puke Prink and keep me updated. Inform Mr. Tann that we are doing everything that we can to get him back to the ship, but he will have to stay down there for some time. We will keep him informed. I will be in my quarters!

CSO/ Sir, when will so... (interference) ...wn and help me with the engines? I am in no hurry to get off the planet, I just want to know when I can... (interference.)

CommO/ Tann, this is Comm. Officer Rouse. The Captain wants me to inform you that we are working on getting someone down to you as quickly as possible. Someone had rescheduled the repairs for Shuttle2 and that is why it was not fixed. Please be patient and continue with your current actions. We will keep you informed of any status update.

Jadak 4 out.

Emotions Run Deeper Then You Know

For those waiting with bated breath and those coming apart at the seams and even for those just looking to read something, enjoy. Also to anyone that thinks this is going on for a long time...... you don't even know, hang on for the ride. We are still on the first climb of the roller coaster. :)

This creature is amazing. Its curiosity is so… I don’t know… intelligent?

The creature did follow me to the camp that I was setting up. It watched me from a distance for a while like a domesticated animal unsure of a new person. It never took an aggressive stance or looked to be threatened in anyway shape or form. I continued to set things up and move items out of the shuttle, but I always kept my eye on the creature, just in case it did become aggressive. At about twenty minutes after the creature arrived at my camp, it started to look around, taking in the surroundings like a curious animal would. I kept watching him… I mean “it”, but I stopped to keep a better eye on it. It looked, but it did more… it observed. It went from thing to thing staring and… cataloging? I could see, in it’s eyes, a sense of more than curiosity… more like a hunger for knowledge. A curious child wanting to know more about things they don’t understand, if you will.

Then the creature moved over to the opening to my shuttle and I swear I saw it gawk at the cargo bay… like it didn’t expect the shuttle to be three dimensional. It made me smile and then I laughed. I felt like a father laughing at the child realizing something for the first time.

My laughter seemed to startle it and it looked at me with, what I can only call, ferocity and contempt. It then hissed at me and stared for a few moments. I asked if I had insulted it, but it only turned and walked away.

I don’t know why I said what I said. I came down here knowing that these creatures were fascinating, but also knowing that they were not intelligent….

I may have to change my report on these things. This is amazing.
