*pokes head over side of ship* Xiphon III: Er...Xiphon the Third. Mechanist Savant, owner of a Nice Hat, and all around alright guy. A pleasure. ![]() i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n557/Icon109/NTWF Smileys/Chives.gif[/img] *calls back up* It certainly is. If you don't mind me asking, what type of airship is that? It looks vaguely similar to something I've seen in some of my studies of outerworld planet systems... *pulls out small device again* Would it happen to be from the Terrestrial "Steem-Punx" era? |

Piksel Zap: Leaving, looks like.Eddie: Aw, don't go, new person! D= ...aw well. Hello Chives, I'm Eddie, and this is my girlfriend Piksel Zap. We're Pokemon; I'm an Eevee and she's a Pikachu.Pleased to meet you. ![]() i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n557/Icon109/NTWF Smileys/Chives.gif [/img] Pokemon, Pokemon... *pulls out a small handheld device* Ah, yes, of course. It's a pleasure to meet you, then. ((...I feel like they might have actually met before, a while back? I can't actually remember, though. It might just have been Mary and/or Deja Vu instead.))[/quote] ((Maybe. I doubt he's met PZ though, since as far as I can remember this is her second appearance since I gave up trying to make sprites for her.)) Eddie: What kind of device is that? |

Xiphon III: I've heard it referred to as such.
*Swings legs over and sits idly on side of ship*
Xiphon III: I just think of it as home though, y'know?
*pats the ship*
Xiphon III: Whattaya think by the way? She's a Keter class carrier, built her myself!

Looks a bit small for a carrier, from what I've seen. Chives, all of the examples you've seen are from outer space :I ![]() i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n557/Icon109/NTWF Smileys/Chives.gif[/img] "Outer Space" is such a broad generalization. |

You should come down to my workshop sometime, I've been working on a few other devices you'd probably enjoy. Although I'm not sure what sorts of technology you folks are limited to. Have you ever heard of a Flux Capacitator? |

*Stands proudly, pacing back and forth across the guardrails giving what is obviously a well rehearsed speech*
Xiphon III: The Sky Ship Aura is a unique bit of construction, courtesy of yours truly, able to keep afloat on two of her engines at the least, although she loses most of her maneuverability that the six rotor design gives her. She has a carrying capacity of up to twelve Flight-ready Ornithopters in her hold, with a hatch to allow mid flight launch and retrieval through a hook-crane. She can hold plenty more if you don't mind stacking them up a bit. She's a full hundred and twelve meters of length, with a forty meter width at midships. Coming to a forward point, she has a wider bow to facilitate a forward motion focused flight pattern. But the pride and joy is the full lounge in the bow, allowing for the comfort of guests. Especially the pretty ones.
*Winks, and flies along the side of the ship with a showman's flourish.
Xiphon III: So whattaya think? She ain't much in a fight, but she's a beauty, if I do say so myself.

I've got roughly a dozen of them lying around the shop at various points. I've been using them for various, ah, "projects" that I was commissioned to do, but I never got around to using them. But there's more. I take it that you've heard about the Chamomile Circuit, then? The what? ![]() i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n557/Icon109/NTWF Smileys/Chives.gif[/img] Species of earth lizard, blends into its surroundings- Chameleon. Yes. EDIT: ![]() i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n557/Icon109/NTWF Smileys/Chives.gif[/img] *looks back and forth over the Aura* Well, color me impressed and set me in a solvent, that's certainly one classy ship. Six rotors, eh? Pretty fancy, considering you're not using it for space travel. |

And with any luck, you won't need to fly her into a fight anytime soon. : .o(What are the limitations on the "can fly with only two engines" thing? Do they need to be opposite each other, or would it work anyway?) |
