TLO folks - most of the ACI Board of Directors and probably some other members are getting together for casual RP of the new Feature Episode tonight at 6pm Eastern time. It would be great to get some live RP with you, if you're free. Look for me at DS9: Ilara@Hrisal

Great, I look forward to talking with you. If you don't see me in game, try @WereWolf359 (Telev - he responded above).

The forum RP is underway, so stop by any time and introduce yourself. If it doesn't feel quite right to show up without knowing anybody, say you met Ilara before and I'll play along. =:)

Don't mind the Caitian and the lizardman stalking each other outside, they're just playing. But best not to get in between them, all the same.

From: Captain Ilara Zhal, ACI Fleet Liaison and Diplomatic Corps Chief of Staff
Re: Terran New Year's Eve Celebration

Dear friends,

The Alpha Centauri Institute will once again be celebrating the Terran New Year on Earth. This year we have invited a dancing troupe from the India region of Earth to perform a traditional dance symbolizing the rebirth of human civilization following its third and final global war.

There will also be an art gallery to showcase the collective talents of our attendees. If you have an artistic talent, please bring an original piece to add to the gallery for the evening.

Finally, in response to complaints that last year's location was too cold, we will be celebrating in temperate Iceland this year. Coordinates

I hope to see you there,

-Ilara

((Hello again! I occasionally throw Forum RP parties which are mostly a way of getting to know one another, but may include a bit of plot or plot foreshadowing for future events. You are welcome to attend, since we always enjoy getting to know new roleplayers. I hope we can connect in-game for some RP together, and I'll let you know when we schedule our next official in-game episode.))

[spoilers]

Let me extend you all an OOC greeting! This is Ilara Zhal, Fleet Liaison Officer for the ACI. In-character, I'm still missing in action, but that will change this Friday, as part of an impromptu RP event I'm running. You are all more than welcome to come and RP with us. 7PM Eastern Time is the plan. I'm @Hrisal - ping me and I'll let you know what channel we're using for the RP.

I'm also running a forum RP to lead into it, so head over to the "Ten Forward" forum at ACI if you want to be part of the prelude. http://aci.guildportal.com/Guild.aspx?G ... ID=2866101

Otherwise, read on for a blurb that includes some significant spoilers for the prelude part, but reflects about what the starting situation will be for the in-game RP Friday night, unless something extremely crazy happens on the forums:




Captain Ilara Zhal's ship, the USS Lor'Vela, limps back towards Federation space from a mission of exploration, without its saucer section and without its captain. On board are over 300 refugees from a Vulcanoid race, apparently descended from a Rihannsu colony ship thought destroyed in a black hole in ancient times. They describe themselves as some of the last survivors of a genocide perpetrated by members of their own race. Their genocidal brethren suffer from a genetic "sickness," but the survivors claim to have developed a cure. It will be up to you to determine whether to aid the refugees in curing their brethren and how to rescue Captain Zhal and the remaining crew from hostile territory.
