(Though to counter that - how exactly does Mage Manor work? I'd think that once intruders sneak in, it does all it can to get rid of them as well. I for one know zilch about the Manor, or the Castle's defenses - maybe we shouldn't've been able to just open the doors and walk in? We need a guild bases description thread >>) I'll answer this now. ^_^ Basically, the Manor, like the Weewoo, is a conscious being. Unlike the Weewoo, however, it chooses who to let in based on their intentions. So, if you were to come in to ask to ally with the mages, the Manor would leave you alone. It's got two main defenses: first, a teleportation barrier that will only let through mages and those who the mages want let through; second, a system of stone guardians who attack those who try to enter intending to get in the mages' way. If someone does ignore this and lets themselves in, it doesn't bother with throwing them out, though. It just zaps them until they think better of it. It also has some other, more minor defenses, like spells on the walls and such to protect itself from magical damage.

Would anyone mind much if I just godmode a barrel over to my current location? As it is, I really can't do much until it comes.

They're quicker to reach than PCs anyway, they constantly roam the board, and it's easier for them to get a full barrel down a vertical wall (it's that whole 'lots of little paws to hold on with' logic).

((Sad but true, Vyt, sad but true. And I'll be interested to see how you're going to survive in that thing for an hour when you claimed the blarf to be suffocating that same minute >>)) This is what I claim to be "The One-Hour Break Limit". Basically, it's the default time limit for one's ability to operate before the user dies or falls under a similar situation. On the case of the blarf, the ability was used on himself, so the limit doesn't apply. Instead, he gets the usual real-life limit. Yes, I'm applying a bit of Anime goodness, with a sprinkle of godmodding. That ability was supposed to exist only inside my own story, but heck.

The deck is some dozen meters from the ground. Does the hamsterwheel bounce high enough? ...and why use the hamsterwheel? xD Like I said, Cat Assassin can get on board, and climbing would probably be easier. You pretty much just wasted a lot of energy on nothing (just like you wasted a lot of energy on nothing when trapping the blarf. I'd expect you to fall over with exhaustion any minute now >>;) Lots of irony here >> There's been lots of complaining and arguing these last three pages or so, while in the RP Cat Assassin can get on board, Cyborg doesn't have to get on board, and everyone has a clear shot as of now. Though I wouldn't suggest you to use it in the middle of diplomatic negoshiayshuns.

Though I wouldn't suggest you to use it in the middle of diplomatic negoshiayshuns. It's not irony at all, really. Cat Assassin tends to think too much before commencing a plan, and thus loses his focus on other ways if he finds one. In this case, the thought of "if the mist stopped Bluisa, it'll probably stop me too" overshadowed the possibility that it'll let him in, thus the rather paranoidal attempt to approach the ship. I'm pretty aware that Cat Assassin can enter without any problem at all, but I'm simply using the RP's limitation to its fullest.

Remember Jord, Kyve and the Marine standing behind Bacon? They're back and, if you don't mind, I'd like to keep control of them for a while until the space battle is finished before making them community characters. Gives me more to do than read and wait for IG to post.
