Program #1 [video]

[ihadahole]

[The good thing about being a machine is that it doesn't take long for Legion to figure out the little communication device. For a moment after the video comes on, the flaps around the eyelight move, flaring out before drawing in close to the light. It looks completely unperturbed by the water dripping off his frame. When it finally speaks, its voice is noticeably mechanical.]

Current location unknown. Shepard-Commander, requesting your assistance.

...Shepard-Commander? Garrus Vakarian?

[He pauses for barely a second before continuing.]

If there is anyone that can hear this, we appear to be out of communication range with our squad. Requesting location data and information on how we have come to be in this place. There is no missing data from our database, suggesting that we have potentially lost recent memory files and have been rebooted from a previous archival copy.

There is currently no known location in the galaxy that matches the description of our current location. Our current hypothesis is that this is an unknown colony, though there has been no news on the extranet about a new colony. More data is required to extrapolate on our hypothesis.

[Another pause.]

We are willing to exchange data or favors for more information pertaining to our current whereabouts. We are especially interested in data on how to return to our previous location.

Comments

video -> action FOREVER

[bufudine]

[A nod.]

I will be there shortly.

[ ACTION ]

[And so he is! It isn't hard to spot the newcomer, given their distinctive appearance. Serph makes sure he's within the newcomer's line of sight before he approaches and holds out a brochure. The information regarding fairies is crossed out. Who needs proper greetings anyway?]

[ihadahole]

[It doesn't take long for Legion to read the brochure and commit the information to memeory. When done reading, they look back up at Serph and hold the brochure out for him to take.]

We are grateful for your help.

[bufudine]

[Oh good. For once, someone who's willing to give his brochure back.

Serph gives a nod in acknowledgement.]

If you need help in the future, contact me.

[...Oh right. Not everyone knows who he is.]

My name is Serph. I am one of the leaders of the Defense Force here.

[ihadahole]

Acknowledged.

We are known as Legion. Is there a particular need for a Defense Force in an isolated settlement such as Vatheon?

[bufudine]

[He notes the "we", but doesn't comment.]

The city is unpredictable. There have been situations that have threatened the safety of residents. We exist to better deal with them.

[ihadahole]

Acknowledged.

[Legion pauses for a second as they come to a consensus.]

We are willing to offer our assistance to the Defense Force.

[bufudine]

[Serph nods.]

What skills do you have?

[ooc: OOCly, all you need to do is fill in the form here.]

[ihadahole]

We are proficient with sniper rifles and assault rifles, and are capable of close quarters combat. We are also proficient at hacking and infiltration.

[bufudine]

[He's making a mental note of all this. Also, perhaps now is a good time to bring up that "we" stuff.]

Are you speaking as the leader of a group?

[ihadahole]

We do not have a leader. Every decision is made through census of the programs within this mobile platform.
