To lazy to send this to individual people, so here goes:

Nightmare is planning a showdown with the Wanderer. He expects it
will happen a) sometime Christmas week, and b) be in Berlin.

The showdown so far involves (in no particular order):

Stealth, and a huge list of my characters which I don't feel like
typing out.

Kor, Griffyn, Trax, GoD, are you all in? Is anyone else in?

When I get a list of all those individual people that are going to be
involved, then I will explain to those people what is going on.
Hopefully before the 20th (as the owner of Stealth is going away
then).

Mike

PS. Tonight or tomorrow, I start the fireworks in Berlin. Shadowfox
and a bunch of other characters are arriving in Berlin (Stealth
included) on Monday.

I, as Kor and Trax are in.

You have access to as much or little of Serenity's officers as
you Nightmare or Shadowfox want. Trixie is in, Akira wants in. Honestly,
the whole of Serenity's Founding force + the second tir of officers for
what he did to Trixie. Trixie, of course, wants to taste blood.

Again, N / S will have to get word to us so we know where we need to be. Its
unlikely anyone is going to let us fly 6 attack choppers into Berlin so
we need to come in commercially unless soeone else has a plan.

Sprinkler will be getting word to Kor soon. Nightmare is getting the
toys that you will all be playing with, assuming that people pay him
for the goods. As such, he'll need shopping lists. (as much or
little detail as you want on shadowtk. In private I need details.)

Should be a drekload of people there....

Nightmare wants a lot of people. He has got a bunch for him.
Shadowfox is bringing a bunch. Sounds like Kor is bringing a bunch.
Could be interesting.

(In other words, as many people as Kor is willing to drag over).

Later,
Mike

You better send me off-line just what that means. (Have to be
accurate when I describe things)

Okaaay.... how much of Sasha's force does Stormwind want to hire? :)
They're extremely effective, though not exactly subtle ;)

Sasha's offering Serenity more mercs than they can handle :)
Practicality will probably cut it down to one or two platoons plus some
sappers, and maybe some mortars in support. They may or may not bring
some LAVs (wheeled APCs, not T-Birds).

Basically the force sent depends on what you want :) But Sasha would
definitely contribute.

Griffyn is in. Neuron Basher is in in a BIG way. He doesn't just
want to kill Wanderer. He wants to see him slowly tortured to
death. Not normally in character for him, but he's severly pissed
about what happened to Trixie last year, and this is bringing it
back up like it was yestereday.

A couple of quick points --

1) I like the fact that the Wanderer has a lot of mystery surrounding
him. I think most good "villians" or "anti-heroes" should have that
mystery element.

2) People interested in getting involved in the Boston mess should
contact me off-line. (mrgoldbe@**.netcom.com) I mostly have a loose
idea that I'm running with, and no overall idea on what the ultimate
goal is. But, wtf, I'm having fun right now, making it up as I go.

This does, however, relate to why Shadowfox is MIA, and the recent
attack on the safehouse in Seattle.

3) The comment from D (NodeX Ottawa, Sysop and Guru):
"I doubt even Haze likes the guy."

That is an impressive statement until one remembers all of Haze's
public and private comments about the Wanderer/War. I think it would
have been more impressive if it had been Twitch who was referenced in
the statement, but that is just me.

Although, I am not convinced that Twitch would object to the Wanderer's
style.

4) People in the know, should wonder at the significant differences
between 'the Wanderer' and 'War.' The difference, among other things,
was why he could have worked with Jason Stormwind, and why he let
Pestilence convince himself not to kill Haze.

This is an important thing to keep in mind, especially since War/the
Wanderer normally gets portrayed through his actions.

Later,
Mike

As instructed. Off line.

WTF. I'm interested. There's a small group of dissillusioned no hopers
heading in that direction who are happy to get some action. :)

>Although, I am not convinced that Twitch would object to the Wanderer's

hehehe. Nope. In fact Twitch is considering that crucifixion <sp?> is
pretty cool right now. It certainly grabs the imagination anyway.

He doesn't have the ability to dig in the matrix for old records, but
there are rumours about the Wanderer, and though Twitch is not societies
forst choice of representatives, there is a respect there, something
that Twitch is not used to. Wanderer does what he dreams of doing.
Wandering the world, and having "fun". :)

And why Griffyn and War didn't mix it up when they had to work
together.
