The MUX was pretty exciting on Friday. The Quints executed one of their own on live TV... There was a fight in Moscow between the Quintesson forces and the humans and Transformers of Earth… A new Spiral attached itself to the Japan Trench and started quintforming Earth in earnest... Ty took the Federation and Cobra Commander took the Kingsnake to stop them, and Piranhacon and the Quintessons took out them both, as well as the Dinobots. That's when I had to go to sleep. =)
Transformers Universe MUX has moved servers. Our new address is tfuniverse.mudhosting.net 1976. The old address redirects for now, but won't forever. ^_^ Update your MU*clients now!
I've updated the TPInfo object on the MUX, and for our players' convenience I'm copying the information here.
#14: Activist Rescue Contact: Typhoon Added: Tue Apr 02 2013 Info: Western Asian activist Anwar Assan is being held in Trucial Abysmia prior to execution. Prince Jumal, friend of the Autobots, has asked their help in his release. The Joes, who have some experience in TA brutality, agreed to help as well, especially since Cobra Commander is rumored to be in TA and capturing him would be a nice bonus. Joe intelligence suggests Assan is being held in one of two locations, and his wife is in house arrest in another. Jetfire wishes the Bots' involvement to be kept absolutely quiet (robots in disguise!) to keep from causing an international incident. Next Scene: Any night Spike is available we can run a rescue operation. Cobra is assisting TA security. Let us know when the best time is to get the most people on and we'll schedule a date ASAP.
#15: Nuclear Harvest Contact: Typhoon Added: Tue Apr 02 2013 Info: With the Decepticons' energy reserves in Polyhex destroyed, they need a new way to supplement raids, and fast. Scrapper has worked out plans to build a super-reactor on Cybertron, but he needs energy, equipment, and fissionable materials. To that end, Decepticons are staging raids on nuclear power plants. The Autobots must stop them, not only to keep the Decepticons from getting a new source of energy, but also to keep them from causing an accidental nuclear meltdown. Next Scene: Any night we can get a couple of Autobots and Decepticons to rub together. There are a few nuclear plans already on the grid, and others can be created on the fly. Anyone can join in on the fun.
#16: Over Hills and Dael Contact: Typhoon Added: Tue Apr 02 2013 Info: Syrian rebels have captured the small town of Dael, which is sits on a strategically important north-south highway that connects Damascus to Dara'a. It's a big win in a long war, and a loss of that area is a serious setback for government forces. Desperate, the Syrian government has called in reinforcements: Cobra! G.I. Joe is in position to secretly help the rebels, however, to keep the town from falling into Cobra hands. Next Scene: Any night there are Joes and Cobras on - it can be one night or ongoing.
Prowl asked for a recap on what’s been going on plot-wise, so I thought I'd share what I sent her:
On Cybertron there is a big nasty Elder-God-type monster closing in on Iacon that might need some attending to =)
On Earth, Starscream recently attacked O'Hare airport, and the Cons are about to step up some raids on human nuclear facilities.
Skyfire is about to begin closing the Shattered Glass portals on Earth, so he might need some backup.
Also, Western Asian country Trucial Abysmia is threatening to cut off energy aid to the Autobots if Optimus Prime doesn't make a visit, which is difficult since Op is off-planet. Crosscut, Elita One, Prowl and Spike might have to deal with that.
Cobra Commander appears in a pre-taped message recorded in his secret command bunker. He sits behind a large desk in front of a massive Cobra flag backdrop. In his slightly hissing, electronically-altered sibilant voice, he implores the following:
“Citizens of the world, I am Cobra Commander. Since ancient Egypt, the Cobra has been a symbol of protection. When the Decepticons flooded our lands, Cobra was there to stop them, and then lend a hand in healing the world with assistance, food, and technology.
“Our protection will not end there. Cobra was founded to fight the oppression of the United States government, and we are taking that mission worldwide. If you are suffering under the yolk of a corrupt puppet of the US, we will help you bring down that regime.
“However, if you are a brave leader fighting US influence, Cobra will be there to offer military support to put down rebel forces and restore peace and security. No longer will the US interfere in local governments and push their weight around – now Cobra will be there to stop them, with the fire and venom of righteousness.
“People of the world, take heart. Cobra is here to lead us all to a better tomorrow.” The recording, transmitted over local TV stations all over major continents, ends with a cut to the flag of Cobra Unity.
OK. As far as the Dweller TP is concerned, the Dweller is at Polyhex’s door, along with a legion of Trans-Organics and undead energy vampires. The Dweller is unstoppable by traditional means, so feel free to assume fighting continues until the next night I’m on, unless you guys come up with something clever without me, in which case just post so I know. ;)
Shattered Glass-wise, SG-Ultra Magnus attacked the SG-Temple of Knowledge and was driven off by the Autobots there, although not before securing the Terminus Blade. As of now Alpha Trion has decided to close the rifts, so if you want any more cross-rift RP, so it soon. I plan to bring some Bots across to meet up with Good-Megatron, so feel free to join.
Thanks to everyone who helped with tonight’s RP! I’ll prolly be on some tonight, Monday, December 3rd for follow-up.
Reports from Cybertron indicate that the Autobot Hubcap was arrested by Scourge and taken to Polyhex for interrogation. Shortly thereafter the city-state was besieged by the so-called Trans-Organics. A massively larger Trans-Organic has emerged from the underworld and is heading for Polyhex. Windshear has identified this Trans-Organic as the Dweller, master of all of these creatures.
According to Windshear, the Dweller is the one who infected the UberSeeker with the nano-virus millennia ago, and later to Windshear himself. Windshear contends that another disciple has taken over, and that this creature is the one who is the link to the Trans-Organics and the infected Cybertronian. Windshear believes is the kingpin and must be removed from the equation.
In the meantime, Polyhex is under siege, and all available reinforcements are being routed to defend it, and to prepare for the arrival of the Dweller.
Data Transfer from Alpha Trion in the Temple of Knowledge on Shattered Glass Cybertron: “I believe I’ve discovered how to contain and ideally seal the rifts between our world and the strange mirror universe we discovered. For safety’s sake, I’ve given copies of the data to the good Decepticons here in case something happens to me on this side of the portals, and I’m uploading the data to Teletraan II for Wheeljack and Skids to attempt to replicate on Earth. I will keep you abreast of my progress.”
I have a new scene I want to run in the Shattered Glass universe. Let me know if anyone is interested: Scene: Gestapo Summary: Mesocyclone was spotted on a Junkion spacecraft by Kup, who has been named secret overseer of the Autobot Secret Police in Prowl’s absence. Now he suspects the Weatherbots of treason, and orders the Autobot security apparatus to investigate. Principle Characters: SG-Kup, SG-Stormwind Needed: Members of the Autobot Secret Police, SG-Weatherbots, other SG-Autobots, SG-Junkions, and SG-Decepticons to randomly interfere. ;)
