Void Spectrum, as a trading card.

The Deadline

"Dr. Orvis!" yells Archon Maurillo as he enters the laboratory, "How are you progressing on this... Voidcryst Project of yours?"

"Very well, sir, I think we are very close to a working prototype," states Dr. Orvis, his excitement palpable.

"Good. It has been a while since I was able to communicate anything positive happening in this facility at all. You and your colleagues, Orvis, have been most disappointing."

Dr. Orvis looks a bit uneasy and mumbles under his breath about the working conditions and the fact that he and all his colleagues have been abducted... which tends to hamper morale.

"What was that, Orvis? Do you have something to say to me?" Archon Maurillo says confrontationally.

"No, Archon Maurillo, nothing to say at all," replies Dr. Orvis. "However, I would ask that you give me a few days to assure that everything is working within expected tolerances before we move further. This... process... well, it is rather delicate, and has never been attempted before. There are so very many things that could go wrong, probably a good deal more than the ones we have planned for even."

"A few days? A few days?!?" spits Archon Maurillo incredulously, "Do you think we are made of time, doctor? I have my superiors breathing down my neck for results on at least something in this building or they plan to liquidate all of our positions. I, for one, will not let that happen. And that means that you and your doctor friends are on the strictest of schedules. Arakhn herself plans to make a visit soon... so we had best have something to show them."

Dr. Orvis quivers a bit as he says, "Arakhn?!? Here!"

"Yes. Here. I will be back in one hour. You had better have a test ready for me then."

"I will do my best sir, but I really must stress that—"

"Enough. One hour."

Archon Maurillo storms out of the lab just as forcefully as he entered it. Dr. Orvis turns from him looking entirely defeated. He approaches the terminal he had been working at to attempt to get the Voidcryst Project's prototype operational. He sighs heavily... it will be a long-shot at best, but he has no choice.

One hour later...

"Ready, doctor?"

"I believe so, Archon Maurillo... at least as ready as it is ever going to be considering the schedule," replies Dr. Montroe.

"Good enough, then. Let's get this started, shall we?"

Dr. Orvis puts his safety goggle down over his eyes and walks into the control booth to the console there. He begins typing commands, flipping switches and assessing read-outs. As he does this, Archon Maurillo joins him in the booth. In the laboratory connected to this control booth, a protective shield is lowered around a Shadow Cyst Crystal and arms are lowered into position equipped with lasers, and gas dispersion canisters.

"Okay, Maurillo," ventures Dr. Orvis, "I think we might just be ready. Shall I begin?"

"Yes. Were you waiting for an invitation?"

Metagame Information

— This section pertains to out-of-game information about Void Spectrum and is included for the benefit of the reader, or to include other OOC information.

This character was thought of based on suggestions in a forum thread, and my own cogitations based thereupon. What I came up with, is a character I am very pleased with in terms of concept. I hope that the appearance I have come up with does the concept justice. Further, I am excited to make use of some of the T9 VIP costume bits that I have just recently unlocked... namely the crystaline bits from the Fire and Ice Pack.
