I'm looking back at previous posts, but to save some time, I'll ask anyway.

1) Does the Catwalk directly overhang the Hanger? I'm imagining a sort of metal structure you can sort of see through because of grates in the floor and gaps in the handlebars, but I'm not sure of its placement. Can she jump directly from the catwalk into the hanger? I'm not sure stairs would be usable in this scenario anyway.

2) Is there anything that can help in this situation? Things like Parachutes that can help break the fall - we aren't all world war II pilots who like to jump out of our fighter planes mid-air and pray the ground is soft enough to land.

3) Is her weapon visible from the catwalk?



EDIT: I ended up watching HunterXHunter recently, and have since rediscovered my fear of clowns.

He, yeah, glad that someone else understands. Once a game feels finished, well, you just move on. In my opinion, RuneScape became too casual, there's just no adventure. At least people are nicer, typical RS players used to be megalomaniacal narcissists.

Ha, if that's true, I don't know how you'd cause trouble, but I suppose everyone has hidden talents.

As for the features and dimensions of the Hangar, I actually don't remember, at all. Moving, holiday seasons, and unemployment all scrape my memory away. I think there are a series of catwalks with stairs at the back of the hangar or something like that.

The question is, why do I even care? If airships crash like planes, there won't even be a catwalk in 2-3 posts time. The problem is, does Bridgett pop in for the whole "hi/bye" thing female action heroes are so fond of doing, or is there something more pressing she needs to do?

I guess it boils down to:

~ How many parachutes did the guy bring out of storage?
~ Where would Bridgett's spear be right now? Is it lost to her, or would it have rolled somewhere into reach?
~ Are the crew members (and characters) able to make it to the doorway unaided?

Mmm, I wouldn't know. I don't know Pennywise's motivations, since I've never read that book. Stephan King's whole cock and bull story about spiders and turtles confused me more than that one book of Discworld I read once.

Hisoka's development on the other hand, I like. He's both rational and irrational, and seeks "pleasure" through killing talented fighters at their strongest. His roles throughout the story range from a mid-level boss to a full blown villain to even a much needed ally who saves the day (mostly because he had nothing better to do).

I've always liked wildcard chaotic evil characters over purely evil characters, you see. The human element makes them much more relatable, and therefore, much more scary because everything they do is a calculated decision.



Also, I saw mention of the spear. I just forgot where I saw it, or where it was in relation to where Bridgett and the other characters are now.

1) Your analysis of the catwalk is correct enough that me trying to explain differences would be incredibly nitpicky and would serve to add confusion. It's located directly above the center of the cargo hold, running down the centerline. You can jump from it to the floor, and indeed several people already have so far.

2) Well, if you're looking to bail out, you'd better have your Trigger handy.

On a less reference-y note, if that's actually what you want, there's bailout gear off to the side. Azi already grabbed it and jumped out, although nobody seemed to notice when I described what it actually did in Gareth and Alicia's post section a cycle or two back. It's not a parachute, but rather a matrix-driven device that creates opposing air resistance and stability to slow your descent and make sure you land on your feet. Apart from that, I'd need to know specifics before I could tell you if anything was there.

3) I'm gonna say yes, although it would still be in the weapons locker and therefore she'd have to spot it in there from the catwalk. Up to you whether she actually does or not.


There's several sets of bailout gear out of storage and on the floor, more than enough for everyone in the cargo hold to use.

The spear isn't lost; I wouldn't do that to you, at least not at the very beginning of the story and probably not later on either.

And yeah, even the guy that got shot could probably make it out without too much of a problem.


I would like to note that the airship is not flying anywhere near as high as planes today fly, so the crashing is going to take significantly shorter than it would in real life.

I played in-game on and off for 12 years. I got really into quests, but took so long levelling my skills between each one that I always had another quest to work toward. Once I got QPC last year, I worked for my first 99, but after that it felt like a strain to play (not to mention some other issues, most notably an abusive ex who became tied to RS in my mind - he was the one who encouraged me to get a 99). It's now been about a year since I've paid for a membership and it feels good.

Also, hey to everyone whose names I recognize but that haven't been around in a while. I used to be Bluefirecan or Blue Serval but I've rebranded.
I just play FFXIV at this point. DC: Crystal

The only 99s I really cared about were the combat ones, and pretty much everything else got as high as it was because of quests. I had the quest cape at one point before they made a mining requirement I didn't feel like getting, and I think I stopped playing pretty soon after that. Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.
