Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Mission Monitor Board The Office of Security (out with the Lardy, in with the Dev)

Hey cheif,

due to increased risk of terrorist activity, I am submitting a request for extra security detail at the fusion powersphere.
As I am sure you are aware, without the powersphere, legionworld would be crippled in its defences.

Also female guards only please

I'll give you as many redshirts as you need, Ded. And I'll consider putting an Elite Guardsman rotation in place, as well.

I was REALLY counting on you as I only have myself and Sharky with extensive experience with both the former Security Offices and the LMB. Will you reconsider with all the defense I'm committing to the powersphere?

Reporting for duty sir.

Well my duties at the sphere are extensive as we are short staffed right now (besides myself I only have Incubus, Hexubus and Autobus to help me).
However, I can co-ordinate security forces in the power-sphere division for you if it will lighten your work load. After-all I do know the areas that are most sesitive and critital

Hrun enters via the window, glass shards flying everywhere.

An axe fly’s through the air the heavy metal gleaming in the artificial light before burying itself two inches from the left hand of the desk duty sergeant.

“Ho constable” Hrun bellows, taking a large draft of mead from his drinking horn, “Inform thy Lord that Hrun craves an audience”

Excellent, Dev! Take a look around and pick yourself out a big fat office! (assuming that's you accepting my offer to join the Office, of course!)

deds, we'll make that coordinating job an official arm of the Security Office, then. Extra funding and resources at your disposal to ensure LW security at our world's most vulnerable point. (I'm sympathetic--after all I died defending the powersphere once) In return you participate in a handful of Elite Guard missions. Suit you?


Ah, Legion World's finest warrior! Hrun, I want only the best among my Elite Guard! Are you and your axe up to the challenge?

I think I can deal with that.

Father's Day ... never easy ... not since I infused my father with rat DNA and stuck him in a cage ... then he went missing ...

but enough about that ... any security issues I should be aware of, chief?

Sharky, since you asked...keep an eye on Quank, would ya? A drunk with a GL ring sounds a bit dangerous.

Thank you for the offer Lardy, but for the time being, I'm going to pass. I'm still trying to figure out what I want out of life these days and I think the Security Office will be a step backwards for me, even if it doesn't include a certain someone.

I wish you the best of luck, of course, and will be there when you need me.

<pointing to her computer brain>

I still have all the data I've amassed from seven years of service to Legion World.

<sees Shark Lad>

Hi Sharky.

<kisses him on the cheek, then exits>

hmmm ... I never noticed how friendly Lolita was before ... strangest feeling I'm having ... as if in some other reality, we could ... nah, what am I talking about?

Alright, chief, I'll keep an eye on Abin ...

Okay, assuming Hrun and Dev are officially onboard, I have enough to get the Elite Guard up and running. Here is our current lineup:

Chief of Security

Chief Taylor

Elite Guard

Lash Lad
Thunder Girl
Blackmace
Shark Lad
Sir Roy
Hot Chick
Hrun the Barbarian*
Dev Em*

*pending confirmation of their acceptance

Head of Powersphere Detail and Special Reservist

My intention is to constantly recruit for the Elite Guard, so it's ranks are not considered closed.

Guardsmen, look for some official announcements about your responsibilities, ranks and assignments very soon.

Meanwhile, Lash...you are immediately in charge of designing and writing our Office's new dress code! My only guideline is that we all show some frickin' SKIN here! We are here to serve and protect the citizens of Legion World--let's show them that we have nothing to hide!

Excuse me, is anyone around here?

<blows out huge puff of smoke from his cigar into the face of receptionist>

Miss? MISS? MISS!!!

I understand you are undergoing construction and a reorganization, but business must carry on as usual. I'd like to register a complaint. I believe someone is following me!

It's embarrassing enough to come down here myself--me, a leading UP citizen and the Governor of Ventura--but I hoped the serious of this complaint would get me an audience with your new Chief of Security.

Excuse me?

<takes cigar, puffs>

Hm. Not bad.

<returns it>

What is your complaint, sir?

<taken aback at first but then smiles in a way only an eye-stalked sentient can smile>

Cigar lover, eh? I'll have a few boxes sent over.

I appreciate you taking the time to see me, Chief Taylor. As Governor of Ventura I have a certain diplomatic importance that requires a certain amount of safety. It is with this in mind that I must register a serious complaint! You see, I believe I'm being followed!

Followed? By whom?

I have no idea! That's why I came to you!

<looks at Dedman>

Hm, smells like a corpse in here.

<back to Chief Taylor>

You see, my species contains a special ability in which we can sense whenever we are in danger. Lately, I have been feeling this whenever I venture out into the streets of Legion World and then I feel it following me around. Always on the fringe of where I am, and then approaching rapidly--I move away and the feeling fades but if I'm idle, it grows stronger again.

Therefore, I can only assume some horrific assailant is following me with ill intentions. It could be a political problem, or perhaps a customer who bet big and got taken by the house. It happens.

So you have no specific idea as to whom it could be and no more than a feeling?

<rolls eye>

Yes, and I don't like your tone.

That 'feeling' I get has never failed me and made me a rich man. I've learned not to ignore it.

I figured you must have informants you pay off for inside information to the underworld or some such nonsense and could get to the bottom of this.

<speaking more quietly>

I could make it worth your effort...

Hello Chief, Governor...

<reaches over and takes the cigar from Gruetis Nyebif's hand and puffs on it>

Your right Chief, it is a very good cigar.

It's also highly illegal to smoke one of these outside of a filtered smoking enclosure.


Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(More pro bono work... you owe me Abin.)

<blows it into Space Ranger's face>

Good thing I have diplomatic immunity, Buck Rogers.

You must be the private dick.

<Pinches the end off of the cigar, pushing the hot ash into the Governors fingers>

Diplomatic Immunity?


Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(Are you immune to heat?)

<pulls back hand after some pain>

I see the ill-manners of the Daxamite race are as potent as ever! It's no wonder you're working in some sleazy backroom office with a bunch of jailbait! You're a bum, Ranger! Nothing but a thug!

ENOUGH, you two!

Listen, Governor of Ventura--this Office's integrity is unimpeachable and we are NOT INTERESTED IN BRIBES!

However, your safety is always of concern. If you'd like, I can assign an Elite Guardsman to investigate and a redshirt detail to ensure your protection.
