Hypatia Event OOC Post #3 - Beginning and Asphodel
Hey, everyone, this is the OOC post for the Asphodel log.
If anyone has any questions, concerns, or suggestions please post them here. At the end of the week, or whenever you feel your character's thread has reached a logical conclusion and you're ready to move on and return to the station, please post a summary of your character's CR, basic opinions,which cheerleader they hate the most, and a quick recap of what generally went down.
It seems like a weird AC, but it's really just something I'd appreciate for clerical reasons, and something that could help people who don't have time to read everything.
If/When you do post that, please put a header: OOC RECAP - CHARACTER NAME
(This one is strictly for my benefit, really, but I would very much appreciate it.)
In regards to this post specifically:
Log or Action OK.
Reasonable New Areas OK.-- If you want to tag an area not listed, before the speech, outside, or something more specific than what is listed, feel free to make a new tag to the post itself. Please add the location into the header.
Wobble-Time OK.--Shepard's speech is, effectively, the first thing that happens. To tag before that, please just put something to that effect in the header. Similarly with dating the next day, late that night, etc.
Speech thread tagging OK.--Feel free to tag any immediate responses to other characters in the Speech thread. Shepard won't be answering them, but that's a viable header to post under.
All technology is bullshit.--So, aside from the storm and the topography, the supply crates are littered about to help make CR easier. The general environment is very spartan, and the crates will only really have things that a military group would toss into them (rations and not cakes, single wool blankets not comforters), but if you want to godmod the content of them, or any relevant reasonable technology (i.e. there's a portable microwave to cook that terrible ration you're gonna eatbut it has no weight setting) go for it.
If your character wants to look over tactical data, but doesn't want to chill in the war-room, Shepard and/or any of the Normandy Crew could logically give them a digital copy, or they could steal a physical copy from the war room. (They're in the...making this easier on everyone box, but hardcopy can't go back to the station for...obvious reasons.)
I hope this helps! I don't want the limits of the IC situation putting insurmountable constraints on CR.

OOC RECAP - ASHLEY
- Had a talk with Femshep re: new recruits, tactical updates, hey-shep-tell-me-about-your-feels. Ongoing.
- Broshep came by to check up on her in typical Paragon fashion. Ongoing.
- Hi Kaidan wat r u doin. Ongoing?
- Glad to see Samus is along for the ride. Ongoing.
Ashley spent most of her time in and around the war room- dealing with the guns (I kind of run with her always being at the weapon bench in ME1), going over if not necessarily shaping tactics, answering questions from the recruits, that kind of thing. You were a lot more likely to see her out and about the rest of the camp than, say, Shepard or Kaidan, though.
Ashley is all for this. She trusts Shepard implicitly; even if she didn't, she's been itching to see Hypatia taken offline for ages. As Hiku established, she's the gun lady, and she'll be training the newbies in the fine art of shooting things without hurting yourself.* Since she's best with rifles, she'll probably be in a long-range/support role once the actual assault starts.**
* I've only ever handled guns a couple times, myself, and certainly never in a military capacity. There's probably something I can google or wikipedia that would help here, but it might be easier to be vague or handwavey about the actual training.
** Soldiers are the tanks in ME1- training in all weapons, heavy armor, plus Immunity (basically another layer of armor); ME3 gives her more emphasis on damage-dealing instead of defense. Vega's the Abrams tank on legs, so he gets the defensive skills. The more you know~
