Taurvi's Log

[Treewyrm]

ooRP Introduction
[color=grey]In this thread I'll post whatever comes up into the head of my character - Taurvi. He is nomad-human hybrid living in nomad ship (nomad light fighter), allied with HF and unidentified force. Also, as of recent Taurvi has deployed his personal flagship, Harbinger (nomad battleship). Later I will provide full story on how Harbinger came to be. Both are separate entities, but both are linked, share same goals and often act as a single creature. Don't expect to have human conversation with them on your characters, unless you happen to be a nomad as well. I provide this for other players to understand better what my character is, as there seem to be some confusion about his allegiance.

Another common misconception is the identity of both characters due to their tags/IDs. Both of my characters are neither lane hacker nor hellfire legion members, they are independent and their identities are to be revealed in the future. Taurvi is hybrid, he has some humanity in him, but mostly he is a nomad and active one, Harbinger is nomad through and through. Asking Harbinger for any kind of response is somewhat pointless, while he does understand transmissions he does not speak with humans unless it's needed. Taurvi speaks but doens't like that. As for tag/ID there are two reasons I have LH: first is that both are "associates" to HF, and the second, obvious one, is that I don't have nomad ID, yet... Players are free open fire upon my vessels if they are strongly against nomads.

Ideas? Suggestions? Constructive criticism? Feedback is welcome via PM. Please, don't post here.

The original story is available here.

p.s. yea yea, I know my english is horrible... :-(

[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]A little earlier I've sensed a nomad unit sending a telepathic broadcast, possibly from Omicron Delta sector. The message was not familiar. In short it was claiming the mankind as the master race. Strange, as no disconnected nomad has been acting like that, upon the node collapse they usually fallback to their primary instincts and maintain basic sentience. This one, however was sending, trying to convince, but whom? Lost ones can't hear it, they are blind until the node reactivates and starts broadcasting. I suspect he is not exactly what he claims to be, it could be... what do they call it?... a "prank". Then again humans, unless converted, cannot use telepathy. Harbinger has caught the signal and responded, further study reveal the unit is "malfunctioning". It could be one of the leftover mad "converts" as well. Needs to pay a visit to Delta see what it is exactly.

Hellfire Legion has finally made progress in utilizing our energy grid with their weapon systems and sheilds on larger vessels. Covertly several reconstructed battleship turrets have been bought on Bretonia black markets to avoid suspicion. Those are bought in massive numbers aroudn the Sirius, more or less should cause no problem. The turrets were modified to use with Harbinger's systems. It is ironic to note how humanity are willingly supporting their enemies. Suicidal tendencies?

So far everything else goes as planned. The remaining functional Nomad fleet at Iota is in need of newer type of vessels that would not require sphere to be grown, and there are several solutions to it. They are loosing units a lot lately, without reinforcements it'll all be over very soon. The nomad rheinlanders are constructing prototype of gunboat using nomad bio-technology, had a look at it earlier while vising Wilderness, interesting and looks promising for as long as they fix energy output and weapon systems. Worth to note that our implementation of human technology takes a very different path. The jumphole beyond the rim is once again unstable and the node still not operational, this needs to be solved.

As for the rest, humans continue to kill each other. Bretonia and Kusari war goes on and there is no sign of change. Harbinger will assist the Legion at times but I have some other tasks for it.

And so it beings. Harbinger has been deployed and the first prey was caught, a liberty dreadnought of local military branch. No significant damage was dealt to the surface. A custom-designed shield was able to reflect almost every blast although it caused energy grid to collapse for a short while. Interesting. Some escape pods from the destroyed capital vessel made their way home. That is wrong. Harbinger have been brought back to shipyards for further enhancements.


...and the journey back goes on. How many years have passed...

...beyond lies our goal. You could see it there, glowing in bright, hot light in the coldness of the far reaches...

...unseen from the rest...

...but we shall take out time for now. There is much to be done...

[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]Security communications in Liberty where unusually loud this time. Although it was supposedly secure channel meant for limited auditory it seems like encryption was extremely weak and many unexpected guests broke into it. From all over the colonies they were having a discussion. Or was it? Flames raising once again, just like they did thirty years ago. Accusations, false reports, propaganda speeches, bold *words*, scientists and their reports, calls for war, even madman ramblings. Yet none were close enough to see the *spark*. While some were a bit closer the others were just as far from it, balancing back to where it means nothing and poses no threat. Humanity struggles to come with a quick answer and, as usual is looking into wrong directions. Old wounds open all too easily...

...thirty years, time passes by quickly in this form.

Three suns were shining brightly, glaring through the atmosphere of the purple barren planet. Suddenly another "ship" has appeared. It was different, very different...

[font=agency fb]Flash IV: The Harbinger

[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]We stood there with our visions of the present and the future, when suddenly a massive shockwave passed through and we all felt it...

The Harbinger...

For moments we were just silent. Finally we decided that our matters will wait. They turned away and glided into the cold blackness of space, unseen by anyone, and I went to Vespucci, there was the source of that wave.

When I arrived the Monterry was silent, ship wrecks and hull dust were floating around. A major battle took place there. Numerous lane hacker repair ships were floating around and legion squads were transporting injured from the Monterry to other bases. The mighty Harbinger has made his last stand right there, stood to his very last moments defending the base while he could have escaped. But he made his choice. Then, among the wrecks I suddenly felt something small and warm. When I came close there was an asteroid, on it's dark side was a small blue pod attached to the surface. I slowly picked it. It was the last piece left from the Harbinger. They sent all they had, numerous capital ships, they came to destroy him. So desperate to take such dire action.

The small pod was silent, only erratic pulse was the answer. I will keep it and see that the Memories will pass into the Sanctuary.

We have our own ways, we take care. Those came here and caused it all, they will be... taken care of. In their time, in our ways.

ooc: whether Harbinger will appear once again or not is unknown, at the very least I'm putting him down for week or two, possibly even on undefined period of time. This is what it means to RP, folks.
