Dragonfire Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 (edited) Tags: Exploration. Location: A08 Crentium Mission Log: Entry 9 ~ No rest for the weary, eh? As soon as I'd finished the biomass extraction on Marphacia, I was sent to a new location which could not be more different from Marphacia in appearance. The entire surface of Crentium was a barren, rocky wasteland, with the occasional shrub or plant poking out from the surrounding sea of grey. For this mission, I was given a small exo-suit to protect me against the hostile atmosphere and environment. As I made my way across the planet in search of water, I noticed something odd. The rocks in front of me were a different shade of colour from those all around me, and they appeared to form some kind of symmetrical shape - too orderly to have occurred by chance. Of course, these rocks were centuries old, worn down by the elements and partially covered in dirt and grass. As I peered closer, I suddenly noticed a flash of bright green - and there, right in front of me, was an extra-terrestrial's face poking out of the archway. At first, I was shocked. I had been told that the alien activity on Crentium was "sparse", and hadn't expected to find one at all. My first proper alien! (Note: I do not count the monster I encountered on Lesser Direstan to be a proper alien ) I remembered my training and quickly levelled the exo-suit's arm (equipped with a laser gun) at the creature, in case it proved hostile. But it did not appear to be armed, and, after a quick glance at me, it sped off across the plain, faster than a human could move. I've sent high-definition photographs of the creature, taken using my helmet, to HQ back on Orinshi. It appears to be bipedal, roughly the same height as an average human, and lime-green in colour, with a tentacled face and long claws on its feet. I'll remain on Crentium for another week to study the creature more closely and judge whether or not it is a sentient being.

Lord Tyrus Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 Thanks guys! Can you resize pictures on flickr and convert them to URLs? Yes there's a whole basic editor, resize, crop rotate etc., and the 'share' button lets you have a BBcode of whatever size you need. Nice build btw. Quote
