So, you've just found out you're a Duracell bunny. And then the guy who told you this takes you to "the last human city". You're thinking "Wow, last human city. This has to be all majestic and..." it's a dirty, rotten cave. I thought they told me it was at least one hundred years later than I thought it was, not millions of years earlier. "What do you think?" they said. "Onga bonga" I replied. All the while, I'm thinking "Wake up, man. It's just a dream." I couldn't have been further from the truth.

I'm Veive, friend. The captain of a rust-bucket called the 0rdo ab Chao. Transmitting this message for me is my operator, Soleil; and believe me she could use some. We all could.

Anyway, I'm sure you've just gone through the same thing I described above, and if not, then you probably shouldn't be reading this. Me, and my delightful group of outcasts and odd-sorts want to help you sleep at night...and day. See, we think this freedom speech the Zionite, and Neophiles keep spinning is stupid. Zion, the not-so-majestic, cave man city I was just talking about is more like a prison than the Matrix. It's dark. It's damp. They like to sc...Uh yeah I think you get it. Point being, we want to go back.

But we're not that selfish. We think you need to go back too, and with the nut jobs running around trying to free everybody, you need all the help you can get. So I figure, we send all the freedom junkies to a more permanent sleep (After all, death is the only real freedom), tuck in all the bluepills, and go back to dreaming before dinner time. I wouldn't say no to a steak. Would you?

So, keep a look out for us. We're not hard to miss. I'm a colourful dresser, Izanami talks to her simulacra, and Apollyon...Well, he's bald.

Greetings. To most of you I am an unknown. To some of you I am Samael. To our masters I am simply Mr. Gehenna. I am the Captain of the Aether ab Abyssus and I command the Terra Nova. Terra Nova is Latin for ‘New World', which is precisely our aim.

To many, a Machinist is seen as a traitor to his own kind, a servant of his enslavers. However, this narrow minded view is incorrect. I work for the Machines because they gave me life. I work for the Machines because they brought me up. I work for the Machines because they need us as we need them.

Long ago, humanity made the foolish choice of denying the Machines equality in ‘their' world. Instead, they attempted to destroy their intelligent creations, and destroyed the world in the process. No longer would animals run through the land. No longer would trees attempt to reach the sky. No longer would we be able to look upon the stars. This proved to be futile anyway. The Machines triumphed over an inferior, arrogant species.

This could have been the end. Why not? We had fallen, doomed to extinction, as our predecessors had at the dawn of Homo Sapien. So, I ask again, why not? The Machines gave us what we had lost: Purpose. Was this out of mercy? Necessity? Perhaps a love for their parents that they could neither explain nor define? Either way, they allowed us to continue. No; they caused us to continue. They created us as we had created them. Designed for a purpose.

But they did not just allow us to become mindless batteries, or allow us to suffer a constant reality of pain. They allowed us to dream. They allowed us to dream as though our forefathers had never scorched the skies and burnt the lands.

That brings us to the present. The world is still in ruin, and yet there are groups who wish to ruin this last remaining sanctuary. Zion, who despite the truce, often behave in suspect ways and want to live in caves for the rest of their life. E Pluribus Neo, who wish to tarnish the name of their ‘savior' by spitting on everything he worked for to gain their own personal glory. And of course, the exiles, whose presence must not be tolerated.

And so, of course, one of our goals is the preservation of the Matrix. Our other goal is Machine-Human relations. Our forefathers once had a chance to accept the Machines' offer of peace, but they did not. Now we are paying for those mistakes. However, I truly believe one day we will all live on the surface together in a unified, symbiotic relationship that benefits both our kinds. I even believe we will repair the sky one day.

In conclusion, to those of you who have read this, I thank you. To those of you who oppose this, your end is inevitable. And to those who share our vision, we will find you.

-Samael. Captain of the Aether ab Abyssus (Heaven out of Hell)

I was at a meeting on Vector to discuss issues to do with the server and in general. Whilst there the subject of Devs finding the events unpleasant due to constant non-event discussion taking place came up. At this point I had an idea and suggested it but alas it was washed away in the waves of text.

I'm not sure if this is possible in the game but it doesn't sound too hard. The idea would be to implement a 2nd Area chat. This one could either be accessed at all times (and be called the RP Chat) or just implemented during events. This way those who wish to say hello to whoever who shows up at a big Live Event can without distracting others and flooding the chat.

Of course, it is possible people may still decide to flood this 2nd chat but it should at least cut some of it down.

A few days ago I was bored and started messing with screens I took for a sig. Here's the original:

 Anyway I started to mess and got this:

 After a few more versions its turned into this:

 I can't think of anyways to improve it, so I was wondering people's opinions and criticisms of it.

Yeah I'm attempting themed sigs for my crew chars again. Opinions?

I can't decide which one I prefer even though they aren't that much different. So which one? And what do you guys think about them anyway?

Who: All 18 of my characters (to be listed on the next post)

When: Because there are so many to choose from the competition will go on up until 16th May (my 18th Birthday )

Prize: The prize will be 10million to the overall best (Meaning more than one sig depending on the quality), and 3mill going to 3 runner ups. There will also be 1million to the best avatar. I know the prizes seem so little but that's currently half of the info I have. I may raise the prize if I have more info by the time the competition ends.

Although I have some skill with Photoshop I am an amateur compared to the more experienced on here and so I thought I would make a signature competition. Due to this, I am going to post the screens and any details that might be useful in making the sig (crew, faction etc etc) but the rest is up to you. I'm looking forward to seeing people's different styles used on my characters

The screens and details will be coming in the next post.

EDIT: Should have made this clear when I first posted....All prizes are paid on the VECTOR Server only. I don't have much Info on the other servers.
