Dateline: second to last scene of RotJ

Lieutenant Ragan Tollard wasn't sure just what was going on. The Rebels' fleet had been mousetrapped by their own star destroyer force according to scuttlebutt, but there were still calls for damage control parties from all over the station, and other rumors said some of the enemy pilots had been crazy enough to fly their fighters inside the unfinished quadrant... At the moment, he and his crew of enlisted technicians were headed for one of the point defense turbolaser mounts that protected the Emperor's command tower, and the pair of men moving slowly down the side of the corridor were just obstacles to be avoided, barely even seen at the conscious level - at least until one of them snapped out an order.

"You and you, help me with Lord Vader! You two, get a medic-droid and meet us at the shuttle bay. Get moving!"

Attention focused solidly on the here and now instead of the situation he'd find at the gun mount, Ragan abruptly recognised the form of the imposing Dark Lord, slumped on the shorter man's shoulder. The constant wheeze of his respirator was labored and rattling, and whoever the man in the unmarked unitard was, he was also staggering along unsteadily. Spurred into action, Ragan hurriedly confirmed the commands and gave directions to the closest medbay in case Karn and Folgo hadn't been as diligent in familiarizing themselves with this sector as they should have been, before shoving Nuren toward the unknown.

Swallowing reflexively - Lord Vader was a very real bogeyman to nearly anyone who'd ever so much as seen him - Ragan took one armored arm across his own shoulders, wincing a second time as the exposed circuitry where one wrist ended abruptly sparked and wafted sharp smoke past his nose, and put his back into getting the staggering duo to the shuttlebay double-time.

He still didn't know what in seven supernovas was going on, but if something had been able to chew Lord Vader up this badly, he very much wanted to get as far away from whatever had done the deed as possible.

I've posted Luke giving the order before, but it ran through my head just now as a fleshed out scene so I figured I might as well record it. Opinions?

Then the horns kicked in...
...and my shoes began to squeak.

I'm a member of the community choir North Shore Chorus, and our spring programme is based on the works of Shakespeare and other English Renaissance poetry. "In Windsor Forest" is a suite of 5 songs by Ralph Vaughn Williams, based on Shakespeare's works. I'm only listing the songs I think are power songs for now.

Quote:Back and Side go bare, go bare,
Both Foot and Hand go cold,
But Belly, God send thee good Ale enough,
Whether it be new or old!

I cannot eat but little meat,
My stomach is not good;
But sure I think that I can drink
With him that wears a hood!
Though I go bare, take ye no care;
I am nothing a' cold;
I stuff my skin so full within
Of jolly good ale and old!

I love no roast but a nut-brown toast
And a crab laid in the fire;
A little bread shall do me stead,
Much bread I not desire.
No frost nor snow, no wind, I trow,
Can hurt me if I would,
I am so wrapt, and throughly lapt
Of jolly good ale and old.
Back and side go bare, go bare, 
Both foot and hand go cold; 
But, belly, God send thee good ale enough, 
Whether it be new or old.
And Tib my wife, that as her life
Loveth well good ale to seek,
Full oft drinks she, till ye may see
The tears run down her cheek.
Then doth she troll to me the bowl,
Even as a maltworm should;
And saith,"Sweetheart, I took my part
Of this jolly good ale and old."
Back and side go bare, go bare, 
Both foot and hand go cold; 
But, belly, God send thee good ale enough, 
Whether it be new or old.
Now let them drink, till they nod and wink,
Even as good fellows should do;
They shall not miss to have the bliss
Good ale doth bring men to.
And all poor souls that have scoured bowls,
Or have them lustily troll'd,
God save the lives of them and their wives,
Whether they be young or old.
Back and side go bare, go bare,
Both foot and hand go cold; 
But, belly, God send thee good ale enough, 
Whether it be new or old.

Quote:See the chariot at hand here of love
Wherein my lady rideth.
Each that draws is a swan or a dove,
And well the car Love guideth;
As she goes all hearts do duty
Unto her beauty;
And enamoured do wish, so they might
But enjoy such a sight,
That they still were to run by her side
Through swords, through seas whither she would ride.

Do but look on her eyes,
They do light all that Love's world compriseth.
Do but look on her hair,
It is bright as Love's star when it riseth.
Do but mark, her forehead's smoother
Than words that soothe her;
And from her arched brows such a grace
Sheds itself through the face,
As alone there triumphs to the life,
All the gain, all the good of the elements' strife.

Have you seen but a bright lily grow
Before rude hands have touched it?
Have you marked but the fall of the snow
Before the soil hath smutched it?
Have you felt the wool of the beaver
Or swan's down ever?
Or have smelt of the bud of the brier
Or the nard in the fire?
Or have tasted the bag of the bee?
O so white, O so soft, O so sweet is she!

Quote:Blow, blow, thou winter wind 
Thou art not so unkind 
As man's ingratitude; 
Thy tooth is not so keen, 
Because thou art not seen, 
Although thy breath be rude. 
Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly: 
Most freindship if feigning, most loving mere folly: 
Then heigh-ho, the holly! 
This life is most jolly. 
Freeze, freeze thou bitter sky, 
That does not bite so nigh 
As benefits forgot: 
Though thou the waters warp, 
Thy sting is not so sharp 
As a friend remembered not. 
Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly: 
Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly: 
Then heigh-ho, the holly! 
This life is most jolly.

I has...
first seven others can haz too, Friday the 20th at 9pm EDT / 6p PDT
Hear that thunder rolling till it seems to split the sky?
That's every ship in Grayson's Navy taking up the cry-
NO QUARTER!!!

The Silver Wing is far from the average Fen Car. In multiple ways.
For one it is a Mercedes-Benz 300SL!
Then is is perhaps one of the oldest fencar. Build in 1955, it had three known previous owners before disappearing for nearly 40 years until unearthed in a horrible condition in a barn in Bavaria. It was eventually put to auction in 2013 and then sold to an unknown party, who had it restored by the Mercedes-Benz Museum over the next two years. The car was returned to its original condition, before the owner, Naedial Warringer, approached Mercedes-Benz and told then her plan.
After several days of working on the restorers to get them to help her, they carefully waved the car over two month, under the oversight of the German BKA and BND.
In 2016, the Silver Wing finally launched, with a surprisingly small number of quirks for a vehicle where every single part was waved.
== Known Vehicle Quirks ==
* ''Hot seat'': The driver better does not wear any boots with rubber soles. Because the exhaust runs directly below the driver seat. It tends to melt any rubber of plastic soles, through not enough to leave any marks on the car.
* ''24 hours of Le Mans'': Its the born asteroid racer and will not stop until it has completed any race it started. It does not matter if the pilot want to stop or the fuel has run out. The car will complete the race.
* ''Wirtschaftswunder Zeit'': While it does not matter much to the owner, anyone else who wants to drive the Silver Wing better wears suit and tie or anything else that was moderns in Germany during the 1950s. Or the car won't start at all.
== Trivia ==
* ''Old car is old'': One of the oldest active vehicles in Fenspace. Its debatable it isn't actually the oldest.
* It is said that Ben Rodes had to sleep on the couch for a month, because he didn't have the idea to give Gina a 300SL as a birthday present. She has not asked to drive the Silver Wing yet however.

==History==
Technically formed October 14, 2008 when [[Jeph Antilles], [[Myk-El Miller], [[Nene Romanova] and [[R2-
G0] had a long, sit down discussion among themselves upon realizing that they needed to have something to
do, or go stark raving mad. Jeph had already planned on running small cargo between the various places that
were certain to crop up, Myk being an extra mouth that he'd not counted on made it an absolute certainty
that they had to get to work helping the fledgling Fenspace move goods.
By the time of SOS-Con, they were busy enough, both with shipping larger and larger cargo back and forth, as
well as Myk's well received 'Space Safety' and 'Safe Handwavium Handling' courses, that an expansion was
called for. Jeph was already toying with the potential of a fleet of cargo vessels.
Operation [[Great Justice] made it absolutely mandatory as demand for cargo services jumped through the
roof to support the growing military complex that was developing to handle the [[Boskonians].
It is fairly well known that JMC is one of the companies that gets called upon when the [[Blue Blazers]
need the ability to move large physical items on short notice. They participated in the evacuation of
[[Crystal Osaka] when that settlement was sabotaged by [[Reaver] activities.
By 2020, JMC has established a significant presence throughout the outer system, as well as in the inner
system. It's said by some that it's very difficult to not deal with them if you have any intention to run an
operation in Fenspace - even [[Greenwood, Unltd.] uses their services, despite having their own significant
internal shipping operations. By 2022, this made some in the United Belt Alliance uncomfortable enough that
it was easy for Mason to convince them that cancelling all contracts was a good idea.
==Organization==
The name 'Jupiter Mining Corporation' is partly a misnomer, a placeholder of sorts that never got properly
replaced, as the company only mines for its own purposes, predominately ices and hydrocarbons in orbit
around Jupiter itself. This doesn't mean that the company doesn't deal in mining business; shipping raw
materials and finished product from places like [[Prometheus Forge|The Forge], [[Hephaestus] and any place
the [[Rockhounds] have set up shop is a big part of the JMC docket on any given day. They will also bring
in products, mostly food, from Earth itself, settled into an 'office' practically next door to [[Hermes
Universal Deliveries]. This office is only used for contract negotiations and sales meetings; most of the
time operations are conducted directly from the Serenity Valley head offices, or from Starbug 1.
==The Fleet==
===Starbug 1===
''Full article: [[Starbug 1]''
Flagship and nominal headquarters when the company officers aren't sacked out in Melbourne, or in their
relatively modest digs in Serenity Valley. The first ship of the fleet, and used for many years as the
primary cargo hauler, Starbug 1 has basically been 'retired' from most active cargo service in lieu of the
expanded fleet. Instead, it serves, as part of a sideline set of contracts, as catering and transport for
crews of various documentary shows that come up from Earth, the most notable being the Fenspace special
episode of Top Gear, and a 'Handwavium Myths' episode of The Mythbusters.
===Starbug 2===
''Full article: [[Starbug 2]''
Bearing only an outward resemblance to her 'sister' craft Starbug 1, Starbug 2 is specifically designed and
constructed to serve as a lodging vessel for television show crews on especially large contracts. However,
there is sufficient cargo space and facilities available that she can be used when there are two separate
but concurrent show contracts to be filled. Her first 'role' was bringing a crew along for a special series
of 'Long Way' with Ewan MacGregor and Charley Boorman.
===The Blue Midgets===
''Full article: [[Blue Midget]''
More or less mass produced vehicles, they don't bear any more than superficial resemblance to the Blue
Midget designs from Red Dwarf, aside from being painted blue and boxy. As a single, each one is larger than
either Starbug, encompassing four decks, although a fair amount of the space in each is dedicated to cargo
and storage. Each has a crew of three, with more than adequate facilities to support six crew when
necessary.
Due to it's large size, the Blue Midget class contains equipment for external umbilical docking with both
smaller craft, and larger stations. It also carries a single auxiliary craft, typically a 'waved Honda Fit
or equivalent.
All Blue Midgets are officially numbered rather than named, but each one has a name given it by the crew,
the most prominently known being 'Eat And Run'.
==Locations==
===Main Headquarters===
Located in Serenity Valley, the main headquarters is a large (some say it practically rivals the Soviet's
moon headquarters for size) array of domes and docking bays located a few miles distance from the main
settlement. Most of the space enclosed is given over to loading, unloading, and warehousing facilities to
support the fleet of Blue Midgets, with a dedicated set of slips for the Starbugs. There is enough space to
house a quarter of the ship crews in temporary lodgings at a given time.
Contained in the center of the beehive of constant activity is the administrative dome, where the business
operations themselves occur. The bulk of the facility is fairly unassuming, a range of old style cargo
containers and a couple of Irish blockhouses all bolted together into a fair approximation of an office
building.
===Green Planetoidy===
''Full article: [[Green_Planetoidy]
Located in the L5 point near Earth, Green Planetoidy (don't ask) is basically a way station for JMC routes.
Cargos can be easily transferred here - in fact, a number of concerns with significant means themselves of
moving cargo, but not the ability to berth one of the Blue Midgets, will arrange to pick up or drop off
their shipments here instead.

Bearing only an outward resemblance to her 'sister' craft [[Starbug 1], '''Starbug 2''' is
specifically designed and constructed to serve as a lodging and filming vessel for
television show crews on especially large or long term contracts.
Internally, the ship is considerably more subdivided than [[Starbug 1], ironically
resembling the fourth series version of the ship. Most of the open space that constituted
the common room has been compartmentalized to provide additional bunks, a somewhat larger
galley space for meals, two offices for a director or producer, and a storage area for gear
for a production crew. The upper deck quarters area is given over to the JMC crew for the
ship.
Additionally, the ship boasts several hardpoints and accessways to mount cameras externally.
These are shielded appropriately for most any camera equipment a film crew may field, and
include adaptable cabling to connect the cameras to recording and control hardware.
While the ship is meant primarily to supplement Starbug 1 in television contract
fulfillment, there is sufficient cargo space and dedicated facilities available that she can
be used when there are two separate but concurrent show contracts to be filled.
Her first 'role' was bringing a crew along for a special series of 'Long Way' with Ewan
MacGregor and Charley Boorman.
====Known Vehicle Quirks====
* '''''Don't Rush Me!:'''' Anytime anyone on board is in a hurry to get moving, the engines
take 50% longer to actually cycle up than normal.
* '''''Watching My Knickers Spin Dry:'''' Doing laundry in the provided facilities on board
ship will shrink a random pair of boxers, or, if everyone on board prefers briefs, will
replace a pair of briefs with boxers, usually with no discrimination for gender or
preferences.

More or less mass produced vehicles, they don't bear any more than superficial resemblance to the Blue Midget designs from Red Dwarf, aside from being painted blue and boxy, with the rear section being dominated by an array of engines. As a single, each one is larger than either Starbug, encompassing four decks, although a fair amount of the space in each is dedicated to cargo and storage. Each has a crew of three, with more than adequate facilities to support six crew in reasonable comfort when necessary.
Due to its large size, the Blue Midget class contains equipment for external umbilical docking with both smaller craft, and larger stations. It also carries a single auxiliary craft, typically a 'waved Honda Fit or equivalent.
There is usually enough leftover crew space available that an enterprising hitchhiker, for a nominal fee, can hitch a lift aboard one if it's going the way they want to. Depending on the destination, it can be cheaper than hiring a dedicated transport, and in some cases considerably faster. Some Fen, particularly those who possess serious culinary skills, can do a "working route", going to various destinations by trading their labor for passage.
All Blue Midgets are officially numbered rather than named, but each one has a name given it by the crew, the most prominently known being 'Eat And Run'. In many cases this has extended to ships sporting "nose art", which, while not condoned, is also not directly frowned upon.
==Known Class Quirk==
* '''''Shake, Rattle and Roll:''''' Any attempt to push the vehicle past 50% of it's rated speed will result in the ship vibrating like it's about to shed every single bolt that holds it together.

''[[Jupiter Mining Corporation] cargo waypoint''
Green Planetoidy (don't ask) is basically a way station for JMC routes. Cargos can be easily transferred here - in fact, a number of concerns with significant means themselves of moving cargo, but not the ability to berth one of the Blue Midgets, will arrange to pick up or drop off their shipments here instead.
Construction was completed in 2015, with an initial 4 large cargo docks capable of accommodating ships the size of the Blue Midget class, enabling loading and unloading in full atmosphere, as well as a pair of dedicated slips for the Starbugs. By 2021, this was enlarged to 30 cargo docks. Most of the facility is grafted into an asteroid that was moved from the belt, and is honeycombed with passages and large bays with doors accessing the exterior of the asteroid. There is a large number of "buildings" along one large surface on the outside of the asteroid, making it strongly resemble the Space Academy facility from the old television series.
===Facility quirks===
''It's Not Easy Being Green'': The facility, while using the asthetic of the Red Dwarf series, is painted green. All the bulkheads, deck plates, walls, and other opaque surfaces are painted green. Any repairs or additions have green paint slowly oozing over them from already painted surfaces. Thankfully, this hasn't extended to anything NOT bolted down, nor to signage, at least not yet.

"You know how parents tell you everything's going to fine, but you know they're lying to make you feel better? Everything's going to be fine." - The Doctor

Just for fun, and to give Ravenmoon Station a bit of color... Please pardon the wiki markup.
I'm stuck on four of the twenty-two Major Arcana, though. Anybody want to fill in these blanks? And did I pick the best choices for the eighteen that I did name?

Long story short:  some repressed twit stumbled over the Naughty Tentacles page, complained to Google, and for the second time Google yanked all the advertising on the wiki and sent the management into a tizzy.  Naughty Tentacles (a page of some 8 years' standing, IIRC) is now on permanent redlink and goes to a petulant "We don't want pages like this" message.  And Fast Eddie and his coterie have sprung into action -- they took the entire Fanfic Recommendations section down to sanitize it (it's back, but is full of broken markup), and are proceeding to censor the rest of the wiki of anything that Fast Eddie finds squicky.
I'm taking the time to slowly think out my reactions to this; I may end up posting a bit of an essay here when I'm done.

...and my shoes began to squeak.

Saw this on another board, so ninjaed it for our use.

Magisterium Trial: Sic Semper Tyrannis
Requirments: Lore and Destiny slots unlocked. The trial will not queue otherwise.
Recommended: All Three Level Shifts. Rebirth, Barrier. 
iXP: Advanced Psychic XP

Phase 0: The Calm Before The Storm
The league will be dropped into a very pretty map that also serves as the hospital. Gather up, listen to the pigtails, buff, and then run through the Dream Doctor's Rune to teleport to Nova Praetoria
Phase 1: Defeat ALL THE IDF
This is the Faceroll portion of the trial. 250 IDF stand between you and Tyrant. DEFEAT THEM ALL.
I am not entirely certain, but I believe that this fight uses the same spawns as the TPN Trial. Thus, no Seers or Warworks are present.
Phase 2:Battle Royale
Three AVs will spawn! Chimera, Shadowhunter, and Pendragon, each with their own gimmicks
Shadowhunter grows stronger when not in combat. When reduced to 40% health, he'll transform into a giant jackal like hound. Upon death, he infuses his allies with negative energy.
Pendragon is a Brute, and grows stronger with each attack. He also has a shield that can absorb damage. When defeated, Excalibur will fight on its own for a short time.
Chimera will target people with Rain of Arrows. If you see a target over your head, he's about to turn you into a pincushion. One won't kill you, but if a bunch of targeted people stand together the combined damage will wipe you out. He also frequently teleports around the map. Upon death, he activates a Dead man's trigger that... Does something. Never seen it in action.
Recommended order of defeat is Shadowhunter > Pendragon > Chimera. 
Badge Challenge: Triple Threat
Defeat all three archvillains within 5 seconds(?!).
Phase 3: The Quills of Jocas
Black Swan will attack next. She has a few rather nasty tricks.
The most notable are the Quills of Jocas, which will randomly shutdown your incarnate abilities (Including Level shifts!) for a short time. 
Black Swan will periodically teleport the league to her before using the Quills. She also has access to a Void Judgement.
The other deadly ability of Black Swan is her ability to open rifts to Shadow Earth that spawn adds and heal her. Destroy them as soon as they spawn.
Badge Challenge: Shadow Master
Never let six rifts to open at once during the entire fight. This is pretty easy. Just have some people set up to shut the portals.
Badge Challenge: Ready to Rumble
Defeat Black Swan within 8 minutes of starting the trial. This one requires a blend of strong DPS and builds that don't hinge on Incarnate Powers, as Black Swan can shut those off.
Phase 4: The Well's Champion
As soon as Black Swan goes down, a very spectacular cutscene will play. When it ends, you'll be on a new map, and your hitpoints will be critically low. A Rebirth will help heal the league to full.
During this phase, Tyrant will take control of the Hospital. If you die, you will be trapped inside until the Dream Doctor defeats the glowing red portal. He can pretty much solo it though.
During this Trial, Tyrant will be surrounded by Lights of the Well, that buff him. Fortunately, you have a new power: The Quills of Jocas. Stand near a light and press the power (On a convenient popup power tray) to stop Tyrant from drawing on the power of the well!
Tyrant has a few big attacks: A beam sweep, and an AOE lightning burn patch. The beams hit people in front of him, but are not particularly notable. The lightning (announced by a message that the "Air Crackles Around Tyrant!") will surround him and kill anyone who spends too much time in it. Standard burn patch rules apply.
There are two more mechanics I don't fully understand. One is Favor of the Well. The other revolves around periodic swarms of Olympian Guards spawning and running towards him. Fight well and don't die, and you should be fine.
Badge Challenge: The Hard Way
Defeat Tyrant while destroying no more than 12 Lights of the Well.
Badge Challenge: The Really Hard Way
This badge isn't needed to master the trial. Which is good, because it's ridiculous. Defeat Tyrant WITHOUT DESTROYING A SINGLE LIGHT OF THE WELL. If you manage this... Wow. Go you.
Phase 5: The End?
Upon Tyrant's defeat, he will immediately respawn! ...As a level 54-8 AV. Please choose your most hilarious attack and then take him down.
VOILA! You have defeated Tyrant and proven yourself champions of the well! By clearing this trial, you'll earn the Enemy of the State badge, and you'll have some iXP to put toward your Hybrid Slot. It also drops Emp. Merits as normal.
