Toyman bounded down the stairs. He had stashed what he could in various hidey-holes around the library, pulled on his overalls despite the heat and charged up his cars and whichever of his 'copters that wasn't up in the air at the time. After stashing, he had started on some improvised explosives. H...

Toyman was heading dowstairs. This seems like a good time for him to show up.

Toyman hopped onto the banister and almost literally flew down the stairs. Skidding to an unsteady halt at the bottom, he adjusted the straps on his RCD-backpack and raced through the door. Sticks was talking around the corner, where Baby Thunder had spotted him earlier near the door... "Well,&...

The narrow line of the door had made a perfect target. The two slipping in hadn't even had time to contemplate their fate. That entrance looking clear, Toyman went back to the skies. The exhilaration of being in the air, of flying, was gone. He had no adrenaline rush from combat or even from winning...

The drone swap made him a touch dizzy, as always... the sudden confusion of images as the signals switched over, but once he had his cars active, he jumped into Baby Thunder. It was still positioned near the elevator and stairs. Getting it moving, Toyman stretched his senses out... Sticks is down, b...

His cars in motion, Toyman nearly jacked out when he realized he simply wasn't going to be effective if he tried anything else... He wasn't any good in his meat-body. They were simply hitting too fast, too hard. He swapped again, back to Haze and Mist so he could get an idea of where the enemy was h...

Haze and Mist just weren't going to help in this situation -- it wasn't like the gang didn't know where people were, the enemy was everywhere, all the way around them. Toyman swapped his drone set, and as soon as his cars were online he sent Baby Thunder to a spot under a table near the stairs on th...

The cycles split at the bridge. Haze floated high overhead, watching them come in. As soon as Mist was up with the smoke cans attached, Toyman jacked back in. He jumped into Haze, reveling, just for a moment as he always did, in the sensation of flying, of being the machine, of seeing as it saw, of ...

UCAS, New Seattle, Puyallup Barrens, Hell's Kitchen, Devil's Playground, Library Roof 2063-06-01-1200 Local Time Toyman was on the roof, physically, but his mind was far away. He'd finally scraped enough wire together to put in a Matrix jackpoint on the roof, and he was enjoying it. Some real decker...

Toyman nods. "That may be a better idea, especially since we don't know each other particularly well yet. We can split up later once we have a better idea of how we all work. How about it, Welby?"

Here we are now... Entertainers!

Toyman listened to Tevual, and then noted the names of the others who had answered the summons. He considered their evident skill sets and his own desires. "I agree with Oran. I came here to help discover what happened last night and the standing militia men are probably better suited to dealin...

Toyman says, "Hi!"

Toyman had made it a total of ten steps before he heard Tevual turn and speak. Boy in funny hat, eh? Well, I suppose the jester's cap was a bit out of place. He paused a moment, debating whether to stay or leave... His decision was made by an outside party, though... He turned when Marzipan started ...

Sense Motive (to arrive at why Tevual was dismissing them), Diplomacy and Ghost Sound, with a touch of Perform on the side.

And a failed Will Save to keep in his anger at every person who'd ever dismissed him because of his size or appearance or bullied him or the other children around... ;)

Thus Spake Alphonso...

Toyman approached Commerce Waters and saw the stage where the Half-Orc Monk had spoken yesterday. He could see the Monk there again, standing in his orange robe. Toyman paused to collect himself before he approached Tevual. Pulling off the colorful jester's cap, he ran a hand through his short black...

Hopefully that should be enough to help you place me. ;) I made a lot of minor magical items there. Spells used so far: Dancing Lights, Ghost Sound, Silent Image, Create Water (and I'll cry if I can't have my water-globe launcher :cry ). The idea is that the alchemical charge ignites as per a normal...

I make toys. Why the hell am I here?

Alphonso rolled over in bed. Light streamed in the window and across the room, lighting the dust suspended in the air. Pulling his blanket up higher, Alphonso tried to shut the day out, to ignore the aches in his legs and the half-remembered screams in his ears. Giving it up as a lost cause, he rubb...
