OOC post discussion

It's a lovely, lovely day in the Desert Zone. The sun's out (because the sun is always out), the spearodactyls are soaring, and monstrous vehicles driven by mercenary tributes and their Warboy henchmen rumble through the dunes and harsh salt flats, hunting for unwary victims.

You are here.

Fortunately, you're not the only one here.

What We're Doing
You woke up with (or close enough to with) another Legionnaire (or Legionnaires) and have banded together. As team members find one another, they're forming a multi-war-rig convoy and making a run straight for the allegedly impenetrable force field in an attempt to break free.

On this journey, they will face opposition from the mercenary tributes. They will also have to cross through the sandstorm about halfway there. (You're also free to bring in your own hazards!)

Because having it all be one gigantic thread would be a mess, we're setting it up for everyone to be able to subthread whatever they want while handwaving the fact the convoy is going to the same place more or less together. Thread, NPC, and plot freely together. There will be a thread reserved for the end of the line.

When We Get There
The "finale" thread will have the Legionnaires reach the edge of the dome and do whatever they'd like to try and break it, instead just proving that they really can't bust out at this point. Then Arcade's hologram will appear to taunt them and use the Arena's teleportation systems to scatter the characters to other locations, wherever players deem fit to drop characters to continue their plot threading outside this post.

How Long Will This Take?
Assume this consumes most of Day 1. Characters will be scattered a little while before nightfall, so you'll have still have some time to do some Day 1 Things™ before Day 2.

Surprise mixed in with fear has his energy shield snapping into place, and pushing against that gun driving it back away from him as he scrambles back 'til his back hits the door.

"D-Don't shoot!"

Aside from the fact that Donut is the only one driving this wacky vehicle, Reaper has no other reason not to. Unfortunately for him (while fortunately for Donut), the driving bit is pretttty important. On top of that, there's a weird force field shoving his gun back, but his grip remains determined as he keeps the gun pointed at him.

"Give me one good reason not to."

The car starts to swerve slightly, as Donut's attention is now currently elsewhere. It's annoying, but he's endured worse.
