Gamma Ray Gal at the Tattoo Parlour

I heard from Gamma Ray Gal this morning. I think she must have a "thing" for Sir Jaymes or Zeltyc, because she seems to be hanging around with them a lot:

Hey Tiff! Boy, those Tsoo are tough! Sir Jaymes (BS scrapper) was investigating something about the tattoo process the Tsoo use - something about how it relates to the powers they manifest. He had reason to believe there were a lot of powerful Tsoo hanging out at the warehouse, so he wanted to bring in some reinforcements. In addition to asking me to join, he also brought along Zeltyc (Grav/Emp controller) and severe mary (Katana scrapper), both of whom I've worked with before.


Fighting Tsoo in the warehouse

The warehouse was pretty dark. I think the Tsoo were trying to avoid attracting attention. The place was swarming with them.


Battling Tsoo in a creepy back room.

I had never fought Tsoo before this. Many of them seem to be martial arts experts, specializing in particular weapons. Particularly frustrating are the Tsoo that throw out caltrops. I had to tweak my shoulder bands a bit to reinforce hover mode over flying mode while we were battling these guys. I'm going to have to build some triggers into my gloves or something, as I found it difficult to shift back and forth between flying and hovering. Maybe I can do something to more closely couple the gravity dampening field generators with the propulsion units.

My shoulder bands operate by generating microscopic magnetic and gravitation fields to essentially perform micro-surgery on biological organisms. Really the same magnetic and gravitic field generators that power my costume's hovering and flying abilities, but on a much much smaller and more refined scale. Boy did my costume get a hefty exercise in this outing!

I was knocked unconscious in battle twice during this mission. Thankfully, Zeltyc also possesses some healing powers and he was able to revive me. He also has this nice trick where he can teleport people short distances, so if he escapes battle, he can teleport the rest of us to safety. Zeltyc is a mutant who can manipulate gravity, and i believe this power must somehow involve gravity manipulation. I'm hoping to work with him some to see if i can discover the underlying principles so i can reproduce the effect.

After many long hard battles, we were finally able to arrest Iron Web, the ringleader. It was a tough mission and i learned a lot! Hopefully i did a good enough job keeping everybody battle-ready that Jaymes will ask me to join him and the others again soon!
