A thin smile crossed Robespierre’s lips. “You choose you words carefully, there might a future for you as a Politician. You know me by reputation of cause but if you are loyal to the republic you will have nothing to fear. And if I thought you less than loyal you would not be here you would be elsewhere.†He poured Rene a glass of wine and placed it before him before taking a sip from his own glass. “And what of our own brave sweet Marianne? There have been tales of a young woman who has come to assist our brave troops, who has render them aid and could not be harmed by sword or musket. Not all of these stories could be tales from those filled with the honour of war?â€

Yeah all looks good.

Offices of Maximilien Robespierre 4th Thermidor AN II (22nd July 1794) Despite the power and influence that Citizen Robespierre carried he was not one for extravagance, so the offices he occupied were a simple uncluttered affair. As Rene deSaens was showing in by rather nervous secretary he was waved into a seat as Robespierre carried on reading. “It says here that some prisoners of the state were rescued by a woman referring to herself as Britannia. They even swear that she glowed faintly and was stronger than any man they had faced.†With that he put his reading glasses on the desk and looked up at staring into Rene with his searching brown eyes. “But do you believe such stories Citizen deSaens? After all we are living in an Age of Reason.â€

For convince sake everything is now being spoken in French, unless noted otherwise.

We begin to explore a little of Rene's past.

Aliments Avenir Restaurant, 15th July 2012 Something was amiss with Rene, it didn’t take a detective to work that out. He seemed his normally friendly self but Lucy could tell that something was playing on his mind. The finally straw was when he didn’t comment on a very expensive bottle of Cognac. But she knew he’d never tell her directly, so a different tact was needed. “I believe you promised to tell me a little of your past. So let us sit upon the ground and tell tales as Shakespeare would say. “

Lucy gave a little smile. “Well you’d be in luck Penitents friend gave me this before we left.†She got from her pocket a neatly folded bit of paper on which someone had hastly scrawled some number “I think this may be his telephone number. And if it is I’m sure they must have a way to contact each other.†She looked puzzled for a moment “Though I’m not quite sure why he has such a fascination we me?†Her face was perfectly neutral and with her eyes it was impossible to tell if she was being serious or not.

Well like Lady Liberty or Britannia she'll have a host body so you won't have to worry about her spirit. I'll try to get something ready for next week.

“Pft. The gym his is all fancy with all those toy and stuff, but personally I don’t think you need them all. Give me a bracing hilly countryside, or atop the cities rooftops, and maybe some simple gym equipment and I’ll be just as dandy as someone using all that fancy stuff.†Blodeuwedd realised she’d been ranting a bit and give them all a slightly embarrassed look. “Well that’s my opinion, I sure others will disagree. The pool here’s nice at least.†She gave a rather weak smile and carried on walking.

Merge Trois gave a little mock curtsey. “And I’m help but my very, very, close and personal friends Merge Trois...†Another spotlight and the monitor showed another Merge guarding the entrance to the studio who gave a little salute “...and of cause Merge Trois.†This Merge was escorting all those from backstage onto the stage." She gave a friendly little wave. “So you are all now my hostages.†She tilted her head and gave a gormless expression “But Merge are you crazy? Freedom City is full of Superheroes, some of which could be in this very room right now.†Looked around sweeping her arms for emphasis. “Well I’ve thought of that and thanks to my good friend Camera Obscura I can keep a watch on all of you.†She sweep her arms out and the screen displayed a live shot the entire audience, with one section sweeping over everyone before panning back to the stage.

They were both met by the host of this new show a pretty Asian woman by the name of Ami Hu. She seem quiet friendly as she explained, mostly for Liz’s benefit, that they would do a take of the show’s introduction before the band was introduced and a couple of takes, if necessary, of them play before, if time, she would carry out an interview with Agnes. It wasn’t long before they were show to their places and recording of the show began. “Hello ladies and gentlemen I’m Ami Hu and welcome to my new show.†There was a pause as the audience applauded. “I’m happy to say I get the honor of opening the show by a track by an UK artist who has made Freedom City her second home. Ladies and gentlemen I give you….†At that point the studio was plunged into darkness, whilst from the gloom came another voice. “Please that British Invasion stuff is sooo last century. Now you have the honor, no the privilege to be present during the unveiling of Freedom Cities newest Super Villain…†a single spotlight illuminated a figure at the back of the room “…MERGE TROIS!â€

Agnes looked a little sheepish and tried to cover this by bursting into action. “Let’s get going there start to panic soon. You know one of the advantages of my change is that I can potter around in these heels without feeling a thing.†It was a few steps towards the studio before she decided to explain her rush. “Since my return it’s kind of been just me and my Manager, she’s not the biggest in the world in fact quite the opposite. But she was just about the only one who would represent e after the diva I’d become off of my earlier fame. Ah here we go.†The studio was quite a decent size the stage being split into two, part being the desk where the interviews were going to take place with a modern almost new room feel. Behind the desk was a massive video screen where images could be displayed. The rest of the stage was a performance area where Agnes band were already setting up.

Ah the peril of posting without laying everything out . Frances National Personification has since the Revolution has been Marianne. I was thinking that back in the 1790'sduring the French Revolution the National Convention worried that Gallia could form a counter revolution imprisoned her through magical means. As to who and why I'm saving that for another time. As for the much safer looking Roman vs Nazi thread I'm thinking of a small exploratory force so waves of soldier to wade through and maybe one or two surprises. It all depends on who and how many are interested in taking part.

Sounds cool. Amend or add a new post to that effect and I'll take it from there.

I've been thinking over a few possible thread ideas and I'd thought I'd share to see if anyone would be interested. 1. The players get involved with helping a Roman Parallel stop an invasion from a Nazi world. 2. Gallia the former spirit of France, imprisoned during the Revolution, is freed and sets about getting revenge on well everyone.

Horray! His grapple roll 1d20+15=20. He's all your what do you want to do?

Attack Roll 1d20+8-2=19, I suspect that's just a miss but just in case 1d20=19. Yay lucky me that defiantly a miss .

Sensing that the tide of battle had begun to turn Agnes just couldn’t help but give a little smile and her aura shone just a little bit brighter not enough to dispel the darkness but it was enough. She let off a series of careless little blasts, not really paying much attention of where the blast was travelling. “You’ll never win you know, because there will always be people like us to stop you. I’ve stopped your type before and I’ll do it again. So you know there is nothing wrong with surrendering to us right now, it’ll save you some time and a lot of pain.â€

Lucy listened along carefully nodding she hoped, in all the right places. So this was all looking like someone with a problem against organized crime, the poor officers just got in the way. She had been making an effort to get up to date with modern crime families but that had all fallen by the wayside with the search for her own origins. She lent in a whispered to Starlight “I think we should try to find out how the criminal were connected. Do you have one of those portable telephones to contact the others?â€

“Well we use trained mundane to search out potential artefacts, we don’t have the trained mages to check everything. Besides I think this guy’s action spooked them.†“WILL YOU TWO BE QUIET.†The massive Avian swung his warhammer in a massive arc, managing to total miss the pair of them, it did however manage to put off Blodeuwedd well-timed counter attack which missed the foe by a wide margin. “Though now might not be the time to discuss where the statue came from. Maybe after we deal with this fellow.â€

Blessed's attack 1d20+8=12 Blod's attack 1d20+8=17 That went well, back round to EH

Blodeuwedd wasn’t quite sure what to make of some of Tona statements. She’d heard stories about dumb American hick who didn’t have much education, but there was also stories like that about Wales and she knew defiantly knew that wasn’t true. And Tona didn’t strike her as practically stupid. But then Tona was allowed to keep mysteries just as much as she was. And maybe her new roommate would tell her more about herself. “Subito likes to start all his tours at the library, but I must admit it’s has quite an impressive collection. It’s got one of the best translations of the Mabinogion available plus decent copies of Sun Tzu and Machiavelli.†She knew the copy of Mabinogion was the best version she’d pestered the Librarians for ages until they got a copy.

Lavender look thought for a few second expressing her thought out loud. “Well the Grue like to hide their presence until there ready to strike… and we’re at the extreme range of our sensor. But the Grue will want them†she pointed at the holo of the Lor ship “to know they’re there. So we might have a chance.†She barked a series of orders and the rest of the crew went to work with a grim determination. After a few tense minutes the display flashed and bought up a grainy image from a smaller Gas Giant orbiting Soo-Tine VII. It was impossible to make out any details of the size or class of the craft but it was defiantly a Grue Saucer.

Weirdly all my character have something to do with magic in one way or enough, though collecting magical artifacts is more Blodeuwedd's forte. I might even be tempted to help out and GM something, if nobody better come along, though I'd like to hear a little more of what you have planned.
