SHIP'S LOG:

Moonbeam

Baron Von Dingo 3/17/2020 10:52pm

Harry, Jack, and @Strange Katz
On a routine expedition,
Met the greatest timequake ever known!
High on the winds of time,
It struck their mighty airship
And plunged them down a thousand years below!

And who am I? Well, I'm Baron Von Dingo, your friendly bard and storyteller, here to tell you what happened when @Captain Jack Fenris and crew of the Moonbeam had a bit of a misunderstanding with a recently reawakened ancient Egyptian force o' nature, which has resulted in their ship being plunged deep within the roiling waves of the temporal sea!

Will the crew find some steady chrono-ground on which to moor their ship? Or are they doomed to forever tumble, spiraling week after week through barely glimpsed scenes, never finding a plot to settle on?

Let's peek in on our favorite ship and crew now and see what they're up to...

@Captain Jack Fenris! Sir! Temporal distortions are returning! And it's whipping up quite a dust storm. You can see the ruins of some ancient city below, rising up from the sands off the larboard bow. And First Mate @Strange Katz is making a strange mewling noise!

Come quickly, Captain! You're needed on the bridge!!!

Harry Otter 1/7/2020 9:03pm

@Captain Jack Fenris! Sir! Temporal plasma cooling around us now. We are in-atmosphere... and it's still Earth, sir. Or at least "an earth." Retcon adjusted for temporal redshift at 0.05. So, a close enough branch down the pike.

The year appears to be roughly 2007. The Black Parade still charting well. And we appear to be over north Africa. Egypt, coincidentally enough, sir.

I'm picking up a transmission from another ship. Identifying itself as The Rapture, with Captain @that_name_isnt_taken. They are reporting a temporal misplacement as well, Captain. Temporal residue on the Rapture indicates they're from 2019, shortly before The Confusion in their timeline.

Our darkTech should keep us off anyone's radar, sir. Keeping our distance till we asses.

Harry Otter 11/29/2019 11:16pm

Time disruption erupting all around us, @Captain Jack Fenris! The WonderFly9000 is the source--we're under a barrage from some kind of temporal weapon. We're starting to slip...

And we're being hailed! Someone identifying themselves as @HRH Chons sends their regards? 

The message reads "Welcome to eternity..."

Oh no here comes a swell... brace for it...

Aaaaiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Strange Katz 10/16/2019 4:46pm

I found a coffin shaped box with 21 mummified mice, 7 rows of 3, in a room that had disdyakis triacontahedrons, 12 hour clocks, and dream catchers. Should we send the box to them as a gift, to let them know we come in peace? They might be more willing to communicate with us.
This is Strange Katz, Reporting.

Captain Jack Fenris 10/7/2019 2:20pm

We've tried to get their attention, but they haven't responded... We'll give them some more time, I'd rather avoid causing any unnecessary conflict. Where is @Strange Katz? She'll need to report in the log soon.

Captain Jack Fenris 9/26/2019 9:46pm

(I wonder what Bastet is doing) We should raise Captain @Worded first, see what all is going on. Maybe they'll know why there is so much radiation. I think the lady is Pakhet, Egyptian cat goddess, AKA she who scratches.

Harry Otter 9/23/2019 9:19pm

Ah, yes, of course, the Wonderfly9000. But it doesn’t look like it does in the Zephyr Air Transport Airship Identification Guide. Instead It’s got a great big figurehead on the front. Looks like a woman with the wings of a vulture, holding an ankh, and two big tubes coming out of her head. Smokestacks? Oh and there’s quite a bit of radiation coming out of the ship. 

Would you like us to come along side, Captain Jack, or should we try and raise Captain @Worded first? Still picking up the mummified cat readings. It looks like they're chasing a ball of radioactive yarn.

Communications Lt. Officer First Class Harry Otter, reporting.

Captain Jack Fenris 9/19/2019 5:28pm

No, it is not a regular thing to get mummified cat alerts. They are from the ship Wonderfly9000 by the looks of it! Find out exactly where it is coming from, and we'll go check it out. We are to proceed with caution, as we don't know how dangerous they will be.

Harry Otter 9/16/2019 10:16pm

Aye, Captain Fenris! I'm picking up a strange reading on the Psycho-Interculator thingy. That's the big glass ball here in the corner of the bridge that looks like it's full of smoke and spotlights? Anyway, I know we haven't left port yet so I'm getting to know the equipment, and, uh, the P.I. seems to be saying there's clowder of cat mummies recently reanimated on the Moonbeam, under the command of a certain captain @Worded, not too many standard solar-miles from here. Not a distress signal, per se, just, you know, a mummified cat alert.

Is that a regular thing? To get mummified cat alerts?

Anyway, Communications Lt. Officer First Class Harry Otter, reporting.
