So this "Rogue Trader" thing apparently has nothing to do with Sarbanes-Oxley

I've been having this casual thing with this intern chap from down the street. (Not OUR intern. That doesn't actually fly here.) Anyway, at one point I casually ask whey he won't schedule anything on Saturdays, and I can immediately tell he doesn't want to say anything. So I yank his chain a bit, and eventually he says he has a "role playing group." When I express surprise at not being invited, he looks even more confused. Turns out this version of roleplaying has nothing to do with "I'm a bad girl who needs smiting."

So apparently he goes to this other fellow's apartment, with some other people, and they roll dice, and things? Anyway, I'm going next Saturday. Anyone know about this? How do I win? More importantly, how do I dress? I mean, there's informal and then there's informal and then there's handcuffs, you know?

Sadly, no. Besides minor bioluminescence, I cannot actually create the complex imagery. Also, I can't talk beyond enchanted items developed to give me a voice. I can replicate the details of a circuit board (for example, I could fabricate one lying on me, a table, if I'm in a room with a bunch of electronics) but can't actually get it to work. Sending electricity into my body would mess up my mind and physical responses like any other creature.

It's also too much effort if I have to pretend to be functional. For example, pretend I'm in a room, waiting or a unfaithful husband to wait for some prostitute. I can carry a television I had made that also records images, and a DVD player. I act like the furniture it is resting on, then record the entire tryst while sitting there. It's honestly my modus operandi for jobs like that now; most people don't get freaky on the television.

Bad things still happen, though. :(

I never looked at it that way. I'm just so used to dividing creatures by modes of reproduction, I guess. Undead fall under a category of reproduction I cannot understand at all.
Most common method is binding a soul to a dead body and reviving it.

Or binding it to various gems/phylacteries and having only one part in your body.

One does not make anyone except himself a lich. They make poor servants.

Serverants that you have on your hand since you can break their soul.
And they think they can win because justice will aid them.
They are hilarious.

I have been around long enough to know that "justice" and our kind are a poor mix.

Sorry for taking so long to respond, I've been incredibly busy. I can't say with what at the moment, but depending on how things go, I might be able to tell you guys about the project I've been working on, assuming anyone wants to know.

I have no idea. One moment he was there, and the next he was gone gone. I would question whether or not he was actually dead if not for the fact that she somehow saved the corpse, which we later had for dinner.

So. Today is the big day. If this works out, we'll pretty much be done. If not, well, Yukari promised she'd resurrect me if something goes wrong, so here's hoping I'll be able to report back either way.
