Fox Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Hmm. For the sake of the Lab, I could probably skim another pp off Dragonfly's build to throw it on the pile, if needed.
Avenger Assembled Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 I can put one of Citizen's PP there if needed. He's a sidekick of a member. And that way, he can bring in his teen hooligan friends from Claremont and they can loiter!
Dr Archeville Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 I have an entire Player Award slot I'm not using, Protectron can easily pitch in some EPs for The Lab.
Supercape Posted November 4, 2011 Author Posted November 4, 2011 Personally I think Protectron is the most logical way forward, promoting "it" to full Lab member (as it has been an associate for some time now).
Fox Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 That's true. He lives there, after all. Even if he wasn't a founder or a scientist, he's a useful sort.
Electra Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 I haven't done an edit in ages, I have tons of spare pp. Miss A could toss in to make up the extra points.
Dr Archeville Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 So Protectron'll donate 5EP to the Lab, covering the loss of Gossamer. Do we want to add more stuff (like SC's suggestions)?
Raveled Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 I could get behind the Masterwork Library, Labs, and Workshop, maybe a Universal Translator power (actually worked up a Device like that in Ironclad's News thread -- direct contribution from her, maybe?) and even a Think Tank from Agents of Freedom, but I really don't think we need much else.
Supercape Posted November 9, 2011 Author Posted November 9, 2011 WIth Protectron's addition bringing up back to equilibrium I would say keep the Lab as it is - its perfectly functional for all our needs. Sure we could probably squeeze a few more things in with another PP but to be honest I think its fine in status quo.
Fox Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 Yeah, I'm with Supercape. The really fancy things should probably be saved for individual headquarters.
Supercape Posted November 11, 2011 Author Posted November 11, 2011 In any case, I think a (? short) social thread for Protectron's promotion is called for! Who is up for that?
Raveled Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 If Protecton's always getting folks fruit baskets, then what do we get Protectron? :P
Dr Archeville Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Nuts. Speaking of, I went ahead and added Protectron's contribution (5 EP) to his latest char edit request.
Electra Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 If Protectron needs really fancy HQ stuff, he can always just visit a buddy. Miss A has three HQs these days and is babysitting a fourth, so there's plenty to choose from!
Thunder King Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 I would like if Voltage would be able to join the Lab. I can contribute up to 3 PP towards it if necessary. Voltage's specialties are electronics and computers. Link is in my signature. Thoughts?
Supercape Posted January 29, 2012 Author Posted January 29, 2012 I would support this, he fits the Lab criteria (maybe a bit young but 18 is old enough!). What do others think? If Voltage joins (after suitable plot and thread?) then we have been all contributing 1PP to the Lab, which Voltage should too (no more, no less!) that gives 5 more points to the Lab.
Raveled Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 Looking over Voltage's sheet, I don't have any real problem with him joining. He's very, very focused on one area and he's young, but you could've said the same things about Ironclad when she joined. I would like it if he had some threads with the other Lab folks before joining, just so he doesn't come out of thin air to any of the characters.
Fox Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 I agree with Rav - I have no mechanical or fluff qualms, but would prefer to see a little IC set-up before any official Lab invites go out - partly so that he just doesn't come out of nowhere, and partly to make sure that it's realistic for the other Lab members to invite him in, personality-wise.
Electra Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Assuming appropriate setup threads, I would be okay with it. With Miss A and Dragonfly busy with their own companies, there's some Lab space going spare.
Raveled Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 Since the Voltage issue seems to be settled, I'd like to bring up something else. The Lab has no Reputation table. I'm going to take a stab at fixing that! Gather Information DC 10: The Lab is a collaborative research organization, sited in Hanover in Freedom City. DC 15: The Lab was founded by several superheroes, including Miss Americana, Supercape, Dragonfly, and Ironclad DC 20: The Lab is a not-for-profit organization, but has on occasion worked with various other organizations, companies, and governments. Part of me thinks there should be more there, but I can't really think of anything else.
Dr Archeville Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 And on a related note, a thread I'm in with Supercape lead us to realize the Lab doesn't have a logo/icon. Should that be addressed?
Cubist Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 How's this? Yes, this design is heavily inspired by typical presentations of the periodic table… …and here's another candidate logo.
Airon Posted April 5, 2012 Posted April 5, 2012 I would like for Saiph to have an experience similar to Glow's in this thread, a visit to the lab for either "studying his powers" purposes or for a very short internship (he's not a genius, but he has a bit of sciency knowledge, and he knows SPAAACE!). The real reason Saiph is bugging Duncan Summers for a visit to the Lab is this Complication of his I’ll get them back: He still looks for a way of finding his missing teammates. He’ll bother every super-scientist in the City searching for help. so at the end of the visit/experiment he can get a chance of explaining his problem to the scientist overseeing him. Also, and I'm just throwing it in, since he's empowered by the Lor, and Supercape plans on bringing in a Lor NPC... maybe Saiph's energy signature is what leads to the meeting, or something like that... anyone up for this?
