Citizens of the Rogue Isles, Destined Ones,

I am writing to you from the Arachnos Research and Development (ARAD) Laboratory facility, hidden deep within the bowels of Grandville. For those unfamiliar with my name I am Master Zaprobo and I am the founder and a chief scientist of ARAD.

Since the inception of the Destined Ones Program, Arachnos Research and Development has been field-testing and creating new weapons for Lord Recluse and his lieutenants. We have developed some of the finest robotic artificial intelligences, personal munitions and devices that the ingenuity and resources of our scientists can provide.

It is not enough.

We need you - the scientists, tinkerers and technologists of the Rogue Isles. We also provide a home for all automatons, robots, artificial intelligences and mechanical men. We have the finest minds, and the best technologies to guide you and upgrade your capabilities for the weal of Arachnos.

Join us, and together we can found a better tomorrow, through superior weaponry.

Yours, in the name of science,
Master Zaprobo

Out of Character (OOC)
This is an open advert for people wishing to join the VG "Arachnos Research and Development". We are a themed villain organisation - scientists and robots, working for Arachnos to devlop new weapons.

Requirements
We do have some requirements of our members, and hence we are not for everyone. We require you to...

- Be of Technology (for Robots/Humans), Science (for Robots/Humans) or Natural (Humans Only) Origin.
- Be a Robotics Mastermind (human or robot appearance), */Traps Corruptor (human or robot appearance), or any Archetype/Powerset designed as a robot/automaton/human lab-coated scientist.
- Interested in a low-to-moderate amount of Zone PvP (Field Tests).
- Willing to involve a low-to-moderate amount of roleplay into your playstyle.
- Willing to work together to the betterment of the SG Laboratory/Base (using SG mode to earn Prestige, etc.)

Playstyle/Playtimes
We have a casual playstyle, with no real requirements beyond pooling Salvage and earning Prestige. As we grow beyond this, we will consider more frequent SG Events (Field Tests and Strike Forces).

We seek people who mainly play in the evenings (7pm onwards) but will welcome anyone at any time. Field Tests will usually be arranged for Thursday Evenings (7pm onwards), to allow the maximum amount of people to participate.

There is no set SG uniform. We are, accordingly, very fond of lab coats however! Plus Arachnos seems to like their creations in black, red and grey.

Facilities
ARAD as a group already have an equipped base, with dual-telepads and worktables. We are always looking to upgrade this, and with the new additions for Issue Seven due, it is an exciting time to be an ARAD member.

Contacting Us
If you like the sound of us then please do not hesitate to contact @Doc Bot, @Dr E Genius or @Master Zaprobo on Global, or visit our forums at http://arad.bbfun.com/ where we have more details on the group.

Awesome idea btw guys seems like a really fun thing to make

Our MM heavy missions are scary to behold! Plus, since I wrote this, we upgraded our lab with another Telepad so we can now get anywhere in the Rogue Isles in a blink of an eye (or wait of a loading screen )

We're all ready for Issue Seven - with Prestige to spare for the new Empowerment and Storage Stations (we may even place some decorations soon!)

Small correction to Zaps comment.

Our MM heavy missions would be scary to behold if Zap would actually turn up. He currently uses feeble excusese like real life to get out of them

Awesome group Zap' .

Unfortunately, Prof' Vulcan has signed a lenghty tenure with The Evil Echelon.
You guys up for a coalition ?


 

Posted

Ah, slowly but surely the odd scientist joins our ranks, and a new robotic intelligence reports in for repairs...

We're also very interested to hear from any other Arachnos-themed groups for Coalitions...


 

Posted

Foolish idiots at Arachnos! They've started senidng me their damn mutants and mages. We're trying to conduct science, not herd a bunch of misfits!

Still, I had to find a home for them...

(( All ARAD members, have a look in our forums, we have a sister villain-group now for our non-Tech alts ))


 

Posted

Ah, a spate of new scientists and creations have swelled our ranks... so much so that we have had to increase the laboratory facilities to accomodate them.

I'm sure the new Medical Reclaimator and Auto-Doc will see adequate use.

Plus, I see the supplies I have ordered from Arachnos have started to arrive in the lab. Our plans for some new base devices will soon become a reality...

Very nice initiative Master Zap. Just the kind of VG I would have joined, if not busy elsewhere. We all know that if you can't beat them, make something that can. Haha-Haha!

Dr. RapidFire would join if he was ten levels higher. I'll get him trained and I'll drop you a notice when he reaches lvl 20 or so.

We run "lowbie" nights every Monday with pre-20 toons (currently around L10 I believe) so you'd be welcome aboard any time!

This is off the topic, but I thought you quit Master?

He has a very open relationship with his computer, just don't question it

As he said ARAD are looking to Grow again.. we had a good high point but have had people leaving the game..

We opening the restrictions a little to include All Tech and all Science Origin People..

We are a good Concept based SG, semi RP and looking for some good people to help us regrow.. we have a decent base (although it needs rebuilding a little due to member loss) but has the basics.. we'd like to get involved with raiding eventually, so anyone interested send a message to Myself or Zap...
