Re: Various Locations - Currently 45 minutes out to sea

Of note, here, is that almost all of the navigational data has been copied at one time or another. The intended destination of this vessel would be easy to uncover. Drifter is aboard and could transport all parties back to police headquarters.
What do you do?

Frank had no idea what to do next, so he waited for a plan from someone else. He felt a little lost, not really knowing much about what was going on.

Re: Various Locations - Currently 45 minutes out to sea

with a little side trip to pick up Shadow Strike! Drifter begins to think he should start to charge taxi fees to all these trips... lets see 10% of nothing is err nothing :(

"So people where to next?  Gilligan's Island is always nice this time of year but so is The Jupiter 2.

I think I have some Kyber Crystal shipments still to pick up on Tantooine err scrap that... have not even met with my goffer there yet."

Nighthawk suggests "perhaps if we can find out where this ship was headed, we can go there and foil whatever insidious thing they had planned?"

As our heroes arrive, they discover absolutely nothing unusual occurring. The hotel in question is right in front of them. It appears that Obsidian had his own travel arrangements as he greets the others.

In reply to Ghost Dancer (msg # 251):

After pondering the question for awhile Drifter turns to Ghost Dancer and gives the best answer he can.

"There are settings for you to operate that get you to different bands or lines so if we all get them set to one group band we can all talk to each other on that band.  So once set do not play with that dial etc.  To talk you just push and hold the talk button... I think it is considered polite to say something like breaker breaker your name,  then say your piece then say over and I just mean that one word  to let others know you have stopped talking for the moment.  When you have finished and plan to end the call say something like over and out.   But I only know what I have seen in movies and other alternate realities."

Hilo Crusader of the Caves, long time no see.  How are things going?

Shade moves within the ground, and then flows through the dirt and into the walls of the hotel. Still in a pure energy state, the solid objects all around him should allow him to proceed unseen, while he can see and hear through the shadows-checking on the local area for anything unusual or threating. Also trying not to snoop on people's private lives as much as possible.

The Stuntman hadn't been informed that stealth was the order of the day, and so he felt no reason to hide his presence. Quite the opposite, in fact.

"Nous sommes ici! And that wasn't long at all. I am curious about what kind of relics he has found."

Darryl rushes up to the unknown Super. Pulling out his notebook and pen, he says "Cave Crusader, right? Tell me a little something about yourself. Hobbies, goals, Origin maybe? My readers love to hear those. Abilities would be helpful too."

Blizzard wanting to be polite greeted Obsidian in return. He didn't know them.

"Hello Cave Crusader, good to meet you," he offered.

Does Obsidian have a comic book?

Having nothing to add for now, Knockout just waved to the one called Cave Crusader. For once, she'd stay silent, which was a rare occurrence.

Re: Various Locations - The Hotel Cairo

Professor Michael Robinson arrives to greet the arriving heroes at Hotel Cairo. He is an elderly man who has studied Egyptian cultures all of his adult life. "A few days ago, I uncovered something that would put my name in every Egyptology text book published for the rest of time. I found a tablet upon which were some ancient hieroglyphics. It appeared to have been purposefully defaced, as if to hide what was on it, but I could make out the forms of men carrying the huge blocks from which the pyramids were built. I've begun developing a theory that the pyramids were built through the labor of exceptionally strong people, like yourselves!"

The professor goes on to explain the lack of evidence for his theory to the fact that someone or some group of people obviously tried to destroy all records of such a fact. As an example, he cites the fact that it appears as if someone had tried to destroy the hieroglyphics which he has recently uncovered.

Professor Robinson would like for the heroes to be with him at the time that he presents his theory to the gamut of Egyptian scholars in a few days. He feels that the heroes’ own personal powers will lend credence to his theory. Even better would be if one of the heroes has super-strength himself. Next best would be if the heroes have fought a well known villain with super-strength.

Professor Robinson explains that the meeting is in two more days. He informs them that he has some more preparation which must be made, but he welcomes the heroes to have a look around and enjoy the sites/sights in the meantime. Professor Robinson will also mention that the curator of the Cairo Museum, once he heard that the heroes were coming for a visit, offered to give them a personally guided tour of the museum. Professor Robinson suggests that they accept the offer, for, he notes, there are few who know as much as Manuel (the curator) about Egyptian culture. Professor Robinson would like to meet back at the hotel at 9:00 AM two days later.

In reply to Professor Michael Robinson (msg # 283):

"Now that would be fun.  Professor Robinson would it be of any interest to you to speak with the Ancient Gods of Egypt themselves?  Personall I think it would be fun to chat with Ptah or Anubis just to name a couple of Deities from  the Pantheon.

That is assuming of course that your friend has any depictions of the place made by some true followers of the Egyptian Gods.  I can not go to a place that does not nor never did exist.

They might even give their blessing to your endeavors, then again they might just ask you to not push the envelope.  Still no reason not to try and see now... or is there?  I do love to travel."

Re: Various Locations - The Hotel Cairo

Darryl tells the Professor "I'm no superhero, I just cover them for the tabloids. What I am is a trained Investigator. While I think I could benefit from the tour, I'd much rather look at the site of the defacement to see if I can make any determinations about the ones trying to sabotage your work."

Shade, still observing and listening from a place of concealment, plans on texting his newspaper once he learns a bit more about the defacement. His contacts there might know something about meuseams getting vandalized elsewhere. Could be the same person...

Re: Various Locations - The Hotel Cairo

Bobby eager to find additional knowledge for his comic books thinks a tour of the museum would be great. He could see it now Ninjaman vs the Mummy. So would be nice to have some frame of reference to make his comic book more endearing.

"I'd love to take the tour and I'll be there. I fear I do not have superstrength though. My powers are cold/ice control/generation and vibration control/generation. Now on the Crusher team F.I.S.T., Bull and Shrew all possessed strength well beyond that of ordinary men. F.I.S.T.'s strength was derived from his powered armor. Bull and Shrew both had the power naturally. Bull was the strongest of them all, oh man he hates the color red. It makes him become enraged," Blizzard spouted off.

Re: Various Locations - The Hotel Cairo

"I'm not as strong as Wraith, but It's no secret that I'm superhamnly strong among other things. I just don't see the point. Are you going to pretend there were some kinds of metahumans during the Egyptian pyramid building era ?"

For once, Brooke was not sure she wanted to mingle into such a theory and get associated with such a theory that could impact her image negatively if it was demonstrated it was wrong.
