Dr. Bakaba needs to be included in the THW lore from now on, lol.
Damn, just when you thought that the purchase of that nice little flat in New Hope was a good idea, now bugs are popping INSIDE the city? No rest for the weary, I guess. Now, where did I store that blaster?
He used to be a shift boss at the now closed power plant…until the pressure got to him. First booze, then street stuff…and then Dr. Bakaba had turned him onto the habit that made living on this pesthole of a pesthole planet more endurable…”Xooching.” Sure, it sounded nuts, taking Exobiologics and either consuming them or grinding them up and getting the hit that way – some of the Exobiologics material – easier to call it that than dead Xenoform bits – had a strong psychedelic effect on people, better than anything in some cases. Dr. Babaka had promised that this batch was *the best.* With jittery hands he took out the nodule and his skinning knife, but as he started to pare a strip off the nodule the knife slipped off the leathery surface and sliced deeply into his hand. Cursing loudly, he dropped the nodule to clutch his wounded hand and stood up quickly to look for a first aid kit. The blood covered nodule rolled away under a steam pipe. In the humid darkness the nodule slowly absorbed the blood…and began to pulse in time to the rhythm of the steam pipe…
Outstanding! "Xooching" and "Exobiologics" are getting added to my No Limits campaign, and I guess Dr. Bakaba could make a cameo appearance as well. I need to get my hands on a Dr. Evazan figure from the old Star Wars Miniatures Game to represent him.
NPC - Dr. Bakaba Rep. 5 Spellcaster from Barylistan, specialises in love philtres ;-)
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, good times coming for BUGS players!
Methinks Dr. Bakaba needs to be the recipient of a Rep 8 Spell of Total Irrevocable Banishment, conjured by The Ed, Sorcerer Extraordinaire ;-)
ReplyDeleteMore importantly, more BUGS to kill!!! MOUNT UP ROUGHNECKS!!!
Dr Bakaba needs to be the Patent medicine salesman in the Devil's Elbow...'It cures...limpness! On fifty cents a bottle!".....But can it kill BUGS!?
ReplyDeleteAt least we can laugh at spam :-)
