research team, get in
Another player plot of sorts, y'all!
The gist of it is that a certain blond jerk is shortly going to be setting up a research team (or several under one umbrella, depending), geared towards weapons development in order to tighten Exsilium's defenses but possibly with room for other projects later. Ostensibly, the idea is to take some of the load off the Initiative's own science team and encourage people who might not trust them completely - it's Initiative-sponsored and they've provided the equipment, but it isn't being overseen by them. This is mod-approved as an organisation that will stick around and be open to new folks both now and in the future, especially those who aren't really fighters to begin with!
Ed is most interested in collaring other scientists, engineers and mechanics, purely because those would naturally be the backbone of a research team and not for any more self-serving purposes, but he also needs people to test things, organise / get resources and information, help with whatever other administrative stuff crops up... so everyone, basically.
The intention is that he'll stay in charge of it for now - despite appearances, he has a fairly good idea of how this kind of show should be run - but there are plenty of reasons to be dubious of a loud-mouthed teenager who claims to know what he's doing, and characters willing to voice a few of them or otherwise clash with him are very very welcome :>
An IC announcement of thiswill go up... tomorrow or the day after, because screw assignment deadlines! It'll be backdated to the 1st, though, IS UP AND NOT BACKDATED BECAUSE I DO WHAT I WANT and signups can definitely be handwaved. The more people the better!
Folks who've expressed interest so far (let me know if any of this is off):
