>>>>>[I don't think the beast is MONICA. It appears to be a great deal
older than she has the possiblity of being. Though, it certianly is no
friend of ours. I have assembled a team here, and they're doing on and
off-line research. We only have access to what is in the Tir, though.
(This is no small ammount, however) Several rituals have already been
undertaken just to determine the nature of the beast. We are meeting with
a number of obstacles. My guess at this time is that the beast is not
something we can destroy. We can only push it back. MONICA appears to be
some sort of potential gateway for the beast. Some sort of Tech
Elemental? Whatever it is, It's powerful enough to be in Great Form. DO
NOT approach it alone.]<<<<<

<<<<<[I'll be decking into MagnaTech shortly. There are a few places I
need MONICA to follow. I think I can trap her. If I can get her
cornered, there are a few pieces of her programming that may be weak. I
think I've found a few 'loopholes' that may be useful. I'm going to work
on activating bits of her code that could prove to be self-destructive.
I'm going to need to get her attention, though. I'm going to try
activating Splut. I'll be there shortly.]>>>>>

This is going to get a bit tricky. Whatever happens, DON'T let MONICA
out. This'll only work once.]>>>>>

>>>>>[Hunting with swords? Well... whatever. Looks like it's going to
be an interesting evening. What do you need all those weapons for,
anyway? You won't have time to decide which one to use. Just bring,
like, one bow, one big hunting knife (a sword if you must *laugh*) and
um... a big gun. (that's in case unwanted company shows up--not for hunting)
Just out of curiosity... Do you know how to gut an animal? Well,
nevermind. If we catch a deer, let me take it. I can use the shoulder
sinews for a new bowstring.
Oh: and don't dress all in black (I figure, you're an assissin,
I'd better tell you this. I know their penchant for ebon...) It creates
too much of a silouette. Night Camo if you've got it. Otherwise, I'll
suit you up with something.
And as to where we're going... How does Old Montana sound? I can
get something to fly us out there right quick, and we might find ourselves
a bear. That's good meat for a year. Plus the hide is pretty useful.
And *smile* we can practice our Sperethiel on each other. I was raised in
the Tir.]<<<<<

>>>>>[To everybody.


So you all want to hunt me down. Ya fuckin' mutie sympathisers.


You think you can kill me? You think you can find me. Bollocks!


I forgive you though. There can't be a lot of intelligence in those
thick trog skulls of yours. You know how I know a trog has got a thick
skull? It took two hits from a lump hammer to drive an iron spike
through one, and another two, to make sure it stuck to the post. Elves
ain't no trouble. Their skulls are like their minds weak and easy to
crack.


Come on then you freaks. Come and get me. One and all. By the time
I'm finished the world will be a better place for your demise.


Come to me and die, like the scum you are.


Oh by the way. If you all want to talk about me. Make sure none of my
buddies are listening to you. Stupid freaks.]<<<<<
