    Addition of The Solar Empire
     
    Hello Everyone! I would like to inform you that we are adding another organization to the current service. If you would be so kind as to welcome The Solar Empire!
     
    https://duafaction.com/tse/
     
    Why we are adding them?
     
    The Solar Empire is one of the organizations that we contacted before we launched the DUA Services. I have been working with their leader(MrStarWars) in order to determine if they would have valid interest and if they qualified. After running our tests to determine if they were a candidate, we found that they were such. 
     
    Their member base is also fairly large, and they did not have a website(Nor is there any plans for one), making them a very interesting example of an organization that can benefit from our services. 
     
    Due to their main appeal being roleplay, they did not need as much for their development, relying on their community in part. While I would not go for their approach(obviously. I started this service after all), I am happy to welcome them on-board.
     
    Thank you for your interest,
    MasteredRed of the Diverse Unified Accord

    Really, the possibilities are really endless. One idea would be the conception of spies. If you had a stealth ship that was really well designed, you could infiltrate behind enemy lines and scout. You might not even be able to have weapons because they emit a signature that can be tracked. As well, radars, depending on their power might be able to detect a disturbance.

    Hello Everyone!
     
    I'd like to welcome you to this topic today to announce the project that the DUA has been working on for a couple weeks now.
     
    This service will allow you to have an organization website without the hassle of setting it up yourself. Think of it as a way to create something interesting but not have to have all the worries of updating it and maintaining it that would normally be involved. While this service is by no means complete, it will showcase some early features that we are looking to provide you.
     
    https://duafaction.com/vms/
     
    https://duafaction.com/tse/
     
    Now some of you may ask the purpose. Let me direct you to the below paragraph. 
     
    Our Purpose
     
    We decided when we began the Diverse Unified Alliance(Now Diverse Unified Accord) that we wanted to help organizations get on stable grounds in Dual Universe and really thrive. In order to do that, we have proposed a number of services in order to find out if they will be able to help organizations. While we can not nearly implement them all at the moment without access to the game, we can add a number of them now. This is the start of those services.
     
    We hold our ability to deliver upon these services high and hope that you will find a place for them in your organization.
     
     
    What you can expect
     
    As we announce this new implementation of our services, let me tell you what you can expect from them:
     
    -A custom designed webpage to feature the content you want on there
    -Certification for organizations that meet the DUA's standards
    -Ability to track the number of visitors to your webpage.
     
    As of now, we have implemented these features. For future reference, let me point you to what we plan to add.
     
    -Organization management panel
    -Tracking of organization statistics
    -Multi-page organization hosting
     
    We aim to pave the way for organizations to host their own content. While we can not reveal all our plans, I will go down to the details below.
     
    Cyrule Certification 
     
    Cyrule Certification is a service for the individual member that allows them to vet whether the organization they are looking at is a valid and proper organization. In the future, such things may become a problem. As this services implies, Cyrule of the Diverse Unified Accord will examine each organization to ensure that they follow the standards below:
     
    -Does not contain Alternative Accounts(Alts)
    -Does not scam members
    -Does not engage in malicious practices
    -Looks to provide a worthwhile experience to its members
     
    If your organization abides by the standards above, then it is likely to be certified by our Cyrule branch.
     
    Requirements
    There are requirements for entry into this service. This is in part due to the fact that I'm not going to pay for large scale server hosting(like NQ). nor do I want to make a product that would eventually cause problems on a community scale(Needing to put your organization on multiple sites to attract attention).
     
    So, because of such, the following requirements are involved for your organization to be selected as a candidate or for you to apply for these services:
     
    -Does not contain many Alternative Accounts
    -Does have good standing with the community
    -Does look to gain a website
    -Does not tick me angry(ie. enemy)
     
    Additions to the above aforementioned requirements, the following does help your case of your organization's ability to join this service:
     
    -Is a friend of the DUA
    -Is a friend of CSYN
    -Is lead by a 'community leader'
    -Is small in size and looking for assistance
    -Is getting backing by some people or other organizations
     
    Conclusion
     
    These services are still under heavy development and will need more time to branch out. However, we offer early adopters a chance to be engaged in the early design process and give them an opportunity to make something great of this service.

    Thank you for your response. This isn't at all similar to CSYN though, as we aim to have a bit more involvement with our member organizations to help them plot their path. As well, we offer web services while CSYN plans to be based more in-game and doesn't want to host for individual organizations.

    MasteredRed got a reaction from Caprikel in Traveling City   
    So, we have discussed flying cities before. Traveling cities basically are the same thing(they could probably only exist if they are flying) and we decided the general answer would probably be no.
     
    This was only really the case though for cities that could enter into a planetary atmosphere and float. The exception to this rule could be a city that was self sustaining in space. In order for that to work though, here is what you would need.
     
    -A very wealthy sum of money.
    -A number of basic resources
    -Ability to supply city with lots of supplies via trade routes or cargo drop offs
    -The best engineers to design the most self-sufficient designs
    -Time and patience
     
    Assuming you gain all of those, you should be good to go... except it would still probably be a multi-organization project that would take many, many months to build. It's not impossible though. In EvE, there was a massive DeathStar that was made, capable of destroying entire fleets of ships. It was destroyed in recent memory but the idea is still there.
     
    It is very possible and very much a thing. There are some cons that you also need to take in.
     
    1.
    This wouldn't be a traveling city
     
    There is no real way to create engines that could propel this thing into new sectors of the world. It likely isn't happening. The only real possibility of making it a traveling city is if you started off with momentum and built upon it(maybe, maybe not) but that's not a sure fire bet. It's going to be more stationary the larger it gets. At some point, the term city might mean a couple large structures that can support up to a thousand people(maybe more).
     
    2.
    It's not cost effective
     
    Building a city like this would not be cost effective. Building a city on the ground is just as efficient and the cost for delivering supplies on the ground only get cheaper. While the same may be said about space travel, it is still going to be less economically viable to build it in space rather than on a planet which hosts the very resources used to build it. 
     
    3.
    At some point, just call it a space station
     
    The whole point of things like this is for them to serve as a station in space. While I have no doubt that someone will build a massive construct that has the potential to house all of their organization and then some, it is still just a space station. The fact of the matter is, a space station is much better for the economy, it creates jobs, and it doesn't necessarily have to house respawn nodes, survival gear, shops, and more. But there is a point brought up....
     
     
     
    This will happen. We dare to dream the impossible for a reason and this is just simply one of those times. While I do say that smaller space stations are more economically viable, that is in investment/return. If this giant construct were to actually function, then there would be great rewards to be made. I doubt you'll get a traveling city, but a death star might have to suffice.

While the same may be said about space travel, it is still going to be less economically viable to build it in space rather than on a planet which hosts the very resources used to build it.

    At some point, just call it a space station
     
    The whole point of things like this is for them to serve as a station in space. While I have no doubt that someone will build a massive construct that has the potential to house all of their organization and then some, it is still just a space station. The fact of the matter is, a space station is much better for the economy, it creates jobs, and it doesn't necessarily have to house respawn nodes, survival gear, shops, and more. But there is a point brought up....
     
     
     
    This will happen. We dare to dream the impossible for a reason and this is just simply one of those times. While I do say that smaller space stations are more economically viable, that is in investment/return. If this giant construct were to actually function, then there would be great rewards to be made. I doubt you'll get a traveling city, but a death star might have to suffice.

    So, we have discussed flying cities before. Traveling cities basically are the same thing(they could probably only exist if they are flying) and we decided the general answer would probably be no.
     
    This was only really the case though for cities that could enter into a planetary atmosphere and float. The exception to this rule could be a city that was self sustaining in space. In order for that to work though, here is what you would need.
     
    -A very wealthy sum of money.
    -A number of basic resources
    -Ability to supply city with lots of supplies via trade routes or cargo drop offs
    -The best engineers to design the most self-sufficient designs
    -Time and patience
     
    Assuming you gain all of those, you should be good to go... except it would still probably be a multi-organization project that would take many, many months to build. It's not impossible though. In EvE, there was a massive DeathStar that was made, capable of destroying entire fleets of ships. It was destroyed in recent memory but the idea is still there.
     
    It is very possible and very much a thing. There are some cons that you also need to take in.
     
    1.
    This wouldn't be a traveling city
     
    There is no real way to create engines that could propel this thing into new sectors of the world. It likely isn't happening. The only real possibility of making it a traveling city is if you started off with momentum and built upon it(maybe, maybe not) but that's not a sure fire bet. It's going to be more stationary the larger it gets. At some point, the term city might mean a couple large structures that can support up to a thousand people(maybe more).

    To be honest, there is no real incentive to actually join the alpha than to be a part of the group. It'll be fun but the beta will have more developments and will have some refined mechanics that are more balanced. I don't really think you'd mind either one though, as the gameplay will probably have continuous fun.
     
    However, if you do join the alpha, let me know. I'd enjoy seeing a master strategist in game.

    So, this is a simple problem.
     
    GO FOR 4K MAN. JUST DO IT. A HIGHER SCREEN RES IS ALWAYS BETTER.
     
    None of the statements I just typed are true. Let's go into why you want 1440p.
     
    Assuming you want 1440p for it's resolution, you need to consider why this choice over 1080p. If you really just want it due to your preference, then go ahead with 1440p. However, if you are picking 1440p just for it's higher resolution, there isn't much reason to stay with 1440p over 4k if you are just wanting high resolution.
     
    So, down to the actual discussion. 1440p is a larger size compared to a 1080p monitor, offering a much higher space to work with, but so is 4k. Let me put down some percentages for you.
     
    Let's assume a 1080p monitor, or 1080x1920 is 100%. That would mean a 1440p monitor is 177% of a 1080p monitor, offering a 77% increase from a 1080p. 
     
    However, 4k is much more dramatic. A 4k monitor is 300% of a 1080p monitor, meaning it is a very high increase at 200%! A 4k monitor is also at a 25% increase from a 1440p monitor! That is a dramatic increase.
     
    Now, to address another one of your concerns about scaling, as it can be a problem with some games. Most games however do not have that problem. If you are playing on modern games, you shouldn't see much of a problem at all, as these issues are commonly addressed with developers becoming increasingly aware of the resolution increase in monitors. 
     
    With that being said, your final concern with 4k being worthless on a small screen is interesting. As the human eye has only so much of a resolution that it can cover, but I assure you that a 4k screen is still an increase. It is more noticeable on a big monitor, but it isn't worthless as has been described.
     
    One problem may be that content over streaming services, such as Netflix, Hulu, or some others may not support 4k, however that issue is being address and since you want to handle almost anything, I'm judging that as not a primary concern. 
     
    In short, go ahead for 4k if you view it as worthwhile. Not all content will support it, but if you want this laptop to last a while, handle things smoother, and just be a better package, then 4k wouldn't be a problem.

    Not really. There are some people I know who were not able to acquire alpha due to their financial status, however they received alpha through the devs. It isn't many, but there are a few.
     
    As I should state though, it doesn't really matter if you post your age, give your current status in life, or whatever details. As long as you are a respectable, mature member in the community that does not antagonize the devs, members, and so forth, then you shouldn't really have a problem.
     
    If you truly want to be apart of the alpha team, then just be mature, active, and act respectable. 
     
    On another note, I believe they might select more people for the alpha at another point. The kickstarter solved most of that, but there are some circumstances where people could not/can not pledge. In that case, the devs might look at those people. I don't really know at this point.

    There is little point in asking that now. A person brought out a very exceptional point to me.
     
    People are interested in the game due to a key number of aspects. You can categorize their interests and figure out which groups will be dedicated. Allow me to point these groups out.
     
    Group A(Let's call them the "Interested Hobby" Group.)
     
    Group Interested Hobby is interested in this fine game because it's simply something interesting. They may play Minecraft or Space Engineers and want to take a loot, due to it aligning with what they like in video games. So they'll likely join DU for a little while and pick some things up. Maybe serve to make a little bit of progress but more likely than not, they will eventually quit. 
     
    This is because they don't align with the demographic of what DU is expected to be. People who are willing to dive into the game head first, spend a fair amount of time investing into it, and then create a slot in the game. Some might stay because they have found a new interest, however those banking on an old one will likely leave in time.
     
    Group B(Let's call them the "Buyers" Group)
     
    So the Buyers group is likely to buy a DAC, play the game for a little while, and then quit. These people could be the ones you see on Steam going through and buying something, only to play it once and never see it again. These could also very well be the people who play with the free two weeks or the limited skill tree(I think they went for the two week trial), and then just simply don't get any further. 
     
    Group C(Let's call them the "Player" Group)
     
    Now the player group will likely comprise of the actual players. For instance, people who are active on the forums and community now. These will probably comprise of the people actually in the game so I expect them to be somewhat noteworthy. They might make footholds for themselves. Maybe create a movement. These are the people who you should expect to see upon arrival into the game and who you want to make good friends with. At least not turn them against you.
     
    The community is somewhat interesting already, as we have entered into a section where rivalries, attacks, alliances, trusts, and so forth are already being formed. One of the reasons why you don't want to tick people off to say the least. 
     
     
    That's just an oversimplification of the groups you might expect to see in game. After all, we are just in Pre-Alpha with none of us actually being able to play even a close to completed product. A lot of work will go into it and we can expect the devs to feature more for us once we get closer.

    Non-Canon Roleplay Begin:
     
    Dominar Diablo-
      It had been sometime since he had awoken. The AI had been giving him instructions, explaining to him why he had spent the last 12 thousand years in a glass tube. After walking around the halls of the Arkship, he was directed to a locker by the AI. Inside were the standard issue spacesuits. Taking one of these suits out now, he started putting it on. It took him a decent half an hour to dome the suit, as all of were cold. Once the suit was on however, he activated the in-build life support. His entire body heated up in a matter of seconds, the coldness dying away.
      "That's a relief..." Speaking still took an effort. My throat was still dry.
      "Sounds like you desperately need something to drink." It was the AI. She had long since ditched the robotic personality after she was asked to sound more human and less, well mechanical.
      "I can direct you to the Arkship Pub, if you so wish."
      "Yeah...alright." Taking one last look into the locker, I noticed a simple, black, cloak. I paused for a moment, before reaching inside the locker and grabbing the cloak. I domed the cloak and pulled the hood over my face, before turning and following the AI's directions to the Arkship Pub
      What the hell is going to happen next…
      MasteredRed -
      Once we knew our path towards our lives, we hurried for it. Not looking back, not trying to think of what was before us. We just knew that we would come into this world looking for the best opportunity to lay the foundations for our strength.
      The strength we desperately tried to cling to and find for ourselves. Little was known about where anyone would go, as people were waiting. All that was left was the simple idea. The idea for that foundation.
      "Hmmmm. I wonder what they're all up to.…"
      I imagine we're about to enter into the atmosphere here soon. If things work out the way I recorded my expectations of them to, the race for power will begin shortly.
      Dominar Diablo -
      The halls of the Arkship became more and more repetitive. The same walls, the same doors, and absolutely no windows. The AI was still speaking to me, still explaining things
      "How long until we reach the Arkship Pub...?"
      She replied, promptly. "Not long now, however, I recommend you take a slight detour."
    "Why would I want to take a detour?"
      "Because there is another crew member who has recently awoken. He is just around the corner to you."
      "I see. I suppose it's worth taking a detour then, where to?"
      "Through this door."
      I looked to my left and noticed a door that had suddenly unlocked, the light at it's handle was bright green. I approached the door and grasped the handle, turning it sharply and pushing the door open. I was met with another hallway. In front of me, a man.
      MasteredRed -
      Never was it imagined the things that would go on. Never would it be imagined how people would band together only knowing a name to follow. A name that indicates who they want to follow.
      "Ummm.…"
      The man sees someone in front of him and turns around directly, almost looking to avoid the person in front of him.
      I'm just going to go find some tools or something. I'll need to get off this ship quickly.
      From there, he proceeds to run directly away from the person behind him.
      Dominar Diablo -
      Seeing the man run away at the sight of me was rather unsettling. I watched him go, unsure of what to do, trying to figure out why he would run.
      "Uhh.."
      "It seems this particular crew members is being careful. He's not scared of you, just unsure. I'm monitoring his vitals and the only thing that is out of the ordinary is...well, nothing."
      The AI had said something quite unexpected. Rather alarming to the person on the receiving end of this speech.
      "So, if he's not scared, he's simply avoiding me? I didn't think this cloak was worth avoiding..."
      Having this thought, he began running after the man.
      "Hey! Stop!"
      MasteredRed -
      "Huh? Seems he was actually expecting something to happen."
      The running member stops and immediately turns around.
      What could he possibly want. I need to find all the members as soon as possible.
      "Ok then. What do you want sir?"
      Dominar Diablo -
      He skids to a stop and pauses.
      I'm actually surprised he stopped running.
      The sudden burst of energy had quickly faded, the after effects of 12 thousand years of sleep taking a heavy toll. He eyes the man for a moment before taking his cloak off, revealing dark eyes, dark hair and a stern face.
      "What..why are you running?" His expression would be curious, but stern. It is worth noting this man is no more then a young adult.
      "You are the first person I have met that is also awake."
      GrandMasterApex -
      After 12,000 years, finally his pod opened. Stepping out slowly, very weak and very confused, the man paused to look at a familiar site. Running through his thoughts to find answers, he realized that he knew very little and questions began to spring all over his mind. Looking down he saw a card, with a picture and a name that seemed familiar. Taking the card he sat down, staring blankly into space, lost in his thoughts.
      MasteredRed -
      "I ran because I have things to do. I've already been to one meeting and I don't have much time to lose."
      I wonder why he ran after me so quickly. Doesn't quite make sense to me, but I'll hear him out.
      "Now, can you pleases give me a reason as to why I should stay. After all, I can't stay here forever."
      If I can't get to an area that's large in open, I won't be able to spot any DUA members before they leave the Arkship. I shouldn't be wasting more time than I already have.
      Dominar Diablo -
      He pauses again.
      "I don't really have a reason for stopping you, only that you are the first person I've seen since I woke. Can you tell me your name?"
      He's obviously in a hurry. I probably should not keep him here for long, but even so...
      MasteredRed -
      "I'm MasteredRed. At least, that's the name I have with me. I imagine we've experienced major cognitive dysfunction, or at least most of us. I can remember a bit more details than some people I met at a meeting, but it's still blurry.”
      He must have been affected by the journey quite a bit. I wouldn't be surprised if he's lost about 98% or so of his memories. That's the average I guess.
      "So, what would your name be? Don't mind me asking but since you've asked for mine."
      Dominar Diablo -
    "Dominar is my name. Dominar DIablo. I don't remember much about...well. I remember a few things only. What I do know is.."
      He pulls out a piece of paper from a pouch at his belt. It was a list of names and organizations present on this Arkship After scanning through it real quick, he nodded and put it away.
      "It says here you are the head of one of the many organizations present on this Arkship. I suppose you are looking for the rest of your members. Do you mind If I stick with you for a while? Perhaps I'll end up joining your cause. If we are to 'rebuild civilization', it will not happen if we are all going solo."
      MasteredRed -
    "Ah. Well, good to see someone has been keeping track of things. Probably Anasasi. However, I don't think we'll see each other unless your going to a large open area that I think is ahead.”
      Honestly though, he could join the DUA, but I'm not sure if he has the qualifications yet.
      Raises hand
      "Anyways, it's been nice talking to you. Sorry I've had to keep it short."
      Dominar Diablo -
      He frowns
      "Right...well, If you are looking for a 'large and open' area, might I suggest the Arkship Pub? it's where I was headed originally, before I noticed you were nearby. I could take you there if you want...It's the place you will most likely find who you are looking for. It's obvious by now you are looking for someone."
      He examines MasteredRed. Taking in his being, summing him up, so to speak.
      This man looks like he knows what he's doing. I wonder which organization he's in charge of. He thinks back to the piece of paper Right, the DUA. I think I heard about them before we launched...
      MasteredRed -
      "Yes that would work. I'm a little bit tired.... as usual. All this stuff can be a bit overwhelming at first. That's why I tried a couple exercises to try and prioritize what I remember. It seems to have worked out. I just can't remember my name.”
        As all these events unfolded, something beyond this conversation, beyond this group was unfolding. The planet Alioth was bellow them, and the starts within their reach.
      GrandMasterApex -
    Walking weakly down the corridor, following the voice of the AI, the man now known as GrandMasterApex was recalling the things he had found while investigating his room. As well as a mechanical pet and some strange items known as DACs, he had stumbled across a holotape. The contents of which still puzzled him more than they had helped. He reached the Arkship pub and proceeded through the door
      He finds an empty table and sits down, staring blankly around.
      Dominar Diablo -
      "I see. Dominar Diablo is my real name, I know that much. On the other hand, I don't remember anything about myself in particular, even though I remember a few events leading up to the Arkship's launch. Alright then, the Pub is this way."
      He gestured to the way he he came from and then turned to head in that direction
      I never imagined things would turn out this way. When I first woke, I felt like I would be on my own for a long time. Perhaps it wont be that way...
      The AI spoke now  "There seems to be another crew member who has awoken while you two were talking. I could direct you to him if you so wish, he is a member of the DUA. MasteredRed would want to find him"
      Dominar stops walking at this and turns
      "Red. The AI just told me one of your members has woken and is nearby. Do you want to find him? Actually, he just entered the Arkship Pub."
      MasteredRed -
      "Hmmm. How convenient. I don't have an AI with me due to a number of problems I had. However, it make sense that he would be waking up now."
      Before we left, I tried to grab a list of those who would be removed of Cryogenic Sleep first. It should be Apex, but I might be mistaken.
      "Alright. I assume you know the way. Could you please go with me to find him?"
      Dominar Diablo –
      He nods
      "I’ll lead you to him. This way now."
      He turns around again and continues walking towards the door.
      MasteredRed -
    "Alright. Tell me a little bit about yourself while we're walking."
      He begins to walk and turns his head towards him, listening to what he might have to say.
      Dominar Diablo -
      Chuckles a little
      "I'm afraid I know as much as you do. As I said earlier, I don't remember anything about who I am. The only reason I know my name is because it was stored in the AI's files. What I do know is, I'm a rather calm person. Apparently, so the AI says at least, my vitals didn't even spike when I first woke."
      They had reached the door now, and had turned left, heading down the long hallway.
      MasteredRed -
      "I see. Due to some differences in myself, I have most of the important memories I need. I worked in a factory that produced Kyrium, I had a brother, and many good friends. Really, there's quite a lot that I remember, just not details that I would need for a large advantage over others."
      Dominar Diablo -
    "Fair enough. One of the major events I remember is when the first Arkship that launched...crashed...Actually, that's the only major event I do remember. Everything else is just simple things, like meeting the AI for the first time, and heading to my cryotube."
      A bright light suddenly appeared as they turned a corner. Ahead was a door with a sign above it reading "Arkship Pub". The door was open slightly. There was still some ground to make before they reached the door.
      MasteredRed -
    "The First Arklight.... I think that's what people in my area called it at least."
      He looks up at the sign as well, giving off the impression of relief.
      "That wasn't a good day for some of us. Quite a few lives were lost in that incident, and I know that it's changed how things would have happened by quite a bit."
      Dominar Diablo -
      He nods again. His own expression would be slightly relieved. Less because they would finally be able to meet this member of the DUA, and more because his legs were very tired after so long without use
      "We have arrived. The AI tells me that your member is inside."
      I hope I don't regret helping him. If he's anything like they say he was back on Earth, then I should be happy we met. Even so...12 thousand years in space can change a man.
      MasteredRed -
      "I think he's probably a person known as Apex. I've talked with him before we launched I believe."
      If it isn't, it's probably someone who applied in the general application. I know it's probably him though. He tried to reserve a seat for himself early on.
      Both him and Dominar walk through the door
      From there, a vast view of people flooding the pub is present. Many just awoken and confused. Others wanting to meet and greet as many possible. All these ambiguous faces present, filled with so many different expressions. Fear, Excitement, Sadness, Joy. None the same as the other. All wondering what to do next.
      GrandMasterApex -
      Noticing Master Red walk in he turns to him and gestures to him and his accomplice to join him at the table.
      I recognize this face from the holotape as being Master Red, however I have not seen his accomplice before.
      "You must be MasterRed, Please, join me"
      He turns to face this person accompanying the MasterRed.
      "And I do not believe I have had the pleasure. You might be?"
      MasteredRed -
    "Ah yes. This is Dominar. He helped me find my way to the pub."
      Dominar Diablo -
      Courtly nods to the man sitting down, but Dominar remains silent doing so.
      GrandMasterApex -
      "I see, Well I am GrandMasterApex. Although as to what I was a GrandMaster of is still a mystery to me"
      "It is clear from listening to the rabble in this pub that many of us are suffering from sustained cryogenic exposure. It seems to be effecting some more than others, however one thing that is constant is that without the help of the AI, none of us can preform basic tasks."
      Dominar Diablo -
      I glanced around at the faces. Some of them were watching us, others were burred in their hands. Even more had tears in their eyes
      "So it would seem. Not all of us have access to the AI, apparently."
      GrandMasterApex -
    "Some have encountered problems yes"
      MasteredRed -
      "I didn't receive an AI as well, but I had prepared my mind for this trip prior. Strengthening the memories and information I needed. Not everyone did that though, so that's what's happening."
      MasteredRed glances around at everyone as well
      "Not that I have a problem not having an AI. I prefer it due to the... things that I would likely encounter."
      Dominar Diablo -
      "So, shall we continue the search for your members, Red? Or perhaps we should eat some twelve thousand year old powdered food."
      MasteredRed -
      "If I remember correctly, most should probably still be asleep. Right now, I think we should try and figure out what we should do.”
      Someone bumps into Apex as he stands up.
    Then it was known, things were probably going to be tough from here on out.
      Dominar Diablo -
      Dominar would bear his cloak, which had been stuffed into a pouch at his belt. It was able to fit due to how thin the material was. He'd look up suddenly as whoever had bumped into Apex started looking at them.
      GrandMasterApex -
      "Yes I do believe we have spent enough time on these formalities, their is much to do"
    As the man who bumped into Apex has turned, the robotic dog Apex is accompanied by start to bark.
      "Do watch where you are going sir!" Apex snapped.
      Signaling to his pet to be silent, Apex takes in the face of the man.
      "I do believe an apology is in order don't you, Or has twelve thousand years of chryo made you as rude as it has stupid?"
      Dominar Diablo -
      Dominar frowns slightly.
      "Apex, I think you are overreacting a little. 12 thousand years of cryosleep would make people clumsy to say the least. Perhaps assuming he did it on purpose is a rash move, isn't it?"
      He glanced towards the man who had bumped into Apex, examining him.
      GrandMasterApex -
    "Perhaps... I ache from my slumber and my patience is short, I do apologize for my manner. But I would advise you to be careful as some may be a lot more volatile."
      Apex joins the group to leave the Arkship pub
      I shall remember this moment, he may be more dangerous than he initially looks.
      "you are right Dominar, shall we move to a place a little... less crowded"
      Dominar Diablo -
      He nods, satisfied.
      "Alright. There's an empty table further inside, or perhaps you'd like to leave the Pub all together. MasteredRed?"
      As Dominar began looking around, more people were watching them now. The man who had initially bumped into Apex had long since disappeared.
      MasteredRed -
      "Yes. I think it'd be a good idea t-"
      Jerked backwards by a force, MasteredRed falls back and turns around, looking at the face of the man who bumped into them initially, and his friend.
      The man grunts as he throws a punch towards MasteredRed.
      Dominar Diablo -
      Dominar turns sharply as Red seems to fly backwards. Seeing the two men as he falls to the floor, he rips the cloak off of himself and throws it at the two men, attempting to distract them for a fraction of a second.
      As he does so, he fiddles with something on his left arm for a split second, then raises his left arm to reveal a Nanofromer. His left palm promptly lights up as a piece of metal the size of a fist shoots out towards the one throwing the punch, aimed at his head. The attack was not lethal, however. With the first man on the ground, Dominar aimed his Nanoformer at the second man.
      "Make a move...I dare you." Dominar said, his voice was low but steady.
      MasteredRed -
      "Alright then.”
      MasteredRed then quickly moves to the right of the man. The shock from Dominar's attack keeps the assailant’s friend from turning to face him.
      "Not a smart idea."
      His fist raises towards the second mans face, revealing the punch to come. Without warning, the second man is hit to the head, and knocked down to the ground.
      GrandMasterApex -
    About to signal his robotic pet to attack the men, he noticed Dominar spring into action and instead assessed his combat ability, after all, those who could defend themselves were going to be needed in these coming times of uncertainty.
      "Well I can't help but feel responsible for this... little misunderstanding... and as such I shall try to rectify this little problem."
      From a secret compartment he reveals a DAC and places it in the hands of the robotic bar tenders arms
      " to the man who can... resolve our little problem."
      "...perhaps we should leave now."
      MasteredRed -
      "Yes. There's no one here from the DUA at the moment anyways. It'll be a little while before anyone wakes up."
      He turns around and begins to move towards the exit
      Dominar Diablo -
      Dominar turns his head and watches the second man, eyes narrowed in like he's watching a target.
      GrandMasterApex -
      A crowd of people, now desperate to get their hands on the DAC circled, the two men as the group walked out of the Arkship pub. Events that would no doubt one day come back to haunt them.
      "Well I do believe that escalated rather quickly, good work in their Domino I must say. It seems even after the chryo you seem to be able to defend yourself rather well."
      Apex places his glance on MasteredRed.
      "and of course, it seems you have not lost your touch with the fist either Master Red."
      MasteredRed -
    "Thanks. Also... Domino... I'm pretty sure you just called him Domino... I think they’ll stick"
      GrandMasterApex -
      "Well I am a little shaken from the experience but Domino does seem rather fitting... watching how they fell as such."
      Apex laughs with his joke.
      Dominar Diablo -
      Dominar lowers his left arm and retrieves the cloak from the ground. Doming it quickly, he follows the two outside.
      "Wait, Domino? Lovely"
      He pauses. Catching sight of someone in the crowd, he frowns.
      "Ah...Good..."
      rmhenn –
      Three small throwing knives impale the wall just above the two mens’ heads. The point of origin is easily traceable to a man standing in the doorway, cloaked in a beige military trenchcoat, pointing his right arm at the attacker.
      “Very entertaining, but I think there has been enough of a show for today.”
      The mysterious man walks over to the bar and takes a seat, ordering nothing more than a water.
      MasteredRed –
      "So then"
      The pub was left in confusion as to most of what just happened. One thing was for sure though. They had just attracted attention for themselves.
      Dominar Diablo -
      "Lanez. Why must there always be knives involved when you make an entrance?"
      rmhenn -
      "Because, knives are fun."
      Lanez takes a sip of his water.
      MasteredRed -
      "You say that, but I'm pretty sure those men have a different idea in mind."
      Dominar Diablo -
      "Where did you even get the knives? Did you plunder the kitchen? Or did you just have them in your locker."
      rmhenn – 09/14/2016
      "With much talent, and a Nanoformer, and some spoons."
      Dominar Diablo -
      Dominar Sighs
      "Why did I even ask. Lanez, we're leaving. Feel free to grab your water and join us."
      rmhenn -
      rmhenn grabs his water and follows Dominar out of the pub.
      MasteredRed -
    "So, Lanez, Apex. Please do tell me what you guys have planned here, if anything."
      GrandMasterApex -
      The GrandMasterApex takes back the DAC from the bar tender.
      "it seems the problem has resolved itself."
