Jeneki Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Vanguard Security Officer: "No further without proper clearance. Let's see some ID." Meanwhile, every hero on the way to the RWZ raid just breezes right by him without so much as slowing down. He politely stares and smiles, while keeping his inner rage suppressed. He's a future supervillain in the making. To quell this future threat before it takes root, I propose we all bring him cookies and show him phone pictures of our cats before heading off to the next raid. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clave Dark 5 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 He knows his role there is just performative security, like taking off your shoes at the airport. Mainly he's just there to intimidate all the civvies from going inside. 2 _____________________________ Hi, I'm Clave Dark 5!

KC4800 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Yeah, but the thing is...he says it on the way out, too.

Snarky Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 i suspect he is a transmogrified Rikti who is trying to undermine Vanguards authority by giving orders no one will folllow. it is a subtle long term plan. better than anything else i have seen from Rikti though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I converted him a long time ago. :P He does need an update though. His mothership security briefing still mentions that there are eighteen pylons outside. Poor guy still doesn't know that there are now twenty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roleki Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 He also identifies you on sight, negating the need for ID in the first place. "Hold on, Tootboy, no further without some ID." 1 Those of you who continue to profess a belief in the Users will receive the standard substandard training which will result in your eventual elimination.

Beef Ninja Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Or maybe we could just show him our ID... Nah, look at the kitties. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Hey, $GUY_I'VE_KNOWN_FOR_THREE_YEARS, show me your ID". I mean, he's going his job, I guess. There's a bit of Security Protocol Theatre going on here, though. At higher levels, a hero or villain is: 1) Easily recognizable. 2) Powerful enough to easily restrain the guard and enter before the guard could even sound an alarm. 3) In many cases, may have mind control and/or illusion powers that can "create" an ID or make the guard think that the hero/villain has a valid ID. Of course, it's a comic book setting, so we can just go with it. Also, it provides an opportunity to RP humorous exchanges with the guard... Ralph, you do this every day- don't you recognize me by now? Piss off Ralph, I outrank you. Ralph Williby, don't you get bossy with me. I was changing your nappies when your parents were still privates in Longbow! And so on. 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you know he'll accept cookies? He may be gluten intolerant or on a sugar-free, wheat-free diet. I suggest pollen-free flowers instead, and maybe a good audiobook on investing on a guard's salary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
