<Doc> Let's talk turkey.
* Doc cracks knuckles.
<Doc> Here goes nothing.
<Boris> yokai
<Doc> Doctor Worm's a mild mannered drummer for a band. That's his stage name, not his actual name. He's a bit off, thinking himself not a real doctor, but a real worm instead. Openly welcoming criticism of his tenuous drumming skills, he claims to actually be part of a front for the CIA. The band he's in is a fake band, having to practice posturing and acting like rock stars in order to monitor the youth of America.
<Boris> I'm not gonna steal that much from the song
<Doc> i thot it was gud
<Boris> the idea is that the references are just references, not the whole thing
<Doc> I have no idea.
<Boris> I don't mind Doctor Worm and Working for the man, hell theres even drumming jokes with Rhythm in there somewhere
<Doc> I'm not very good at this whole thing.
* Boris cracks knuckles instead
<Boris> lesee what do I have to work with
<Doc> I'm usualy firing on all cylinders, but this is like three in hte morning here.
<Boris> Ok, so the starting idea on the character is medical skills?
<Doc> Good idea.
<Doc> Do we want actual medical skills, or thinking he has medical skills?
<Doc> Like, real doctor, or got his degree from a vending machine in Rio?
<Boris> actual is better since most of the folks at fybertech are professionals of some type
<Boris> engineers and scientists
<Boris> a doctor would be fine too
<Boris> doctor working for some 'the man'
<Boris> hmm
<Doc> Government is always fine.
<Doc> I mean, any reason why Finbar and Co. would need to be monitored?
<Boris> well, we always sorta valued ourselves as an underground
<Boris> I dunno, let the gears churn a bit
<Boris> Ah, heres something
<Boris> I've been writing for a while a sort of fictional thing I called fybertech investigations
<Boris> where somebody was studying the records and histories of fybertech characters
<Boris> the flavor suggests a detective agency of some kind
<Boris> private and with its own interestes but still a 'the Man' kind of organization
<Boris> you could easily be working for them
<Doc> Mayhaps this investigation group could actually have deeper ties, into something more sinister?
<Boris> yeah, we could develop it into whatever as time goes on
<Boris> all that matters is that at the moment it doesn't constitute too much of a change
<Boris> no government investigations or our enemies getting in on us
<Boris> esentially a somewhat neutural the man with no reason to bust us open
<Doc> Sounds good to me.
<Boris> for now
<Boris> ok, so medical powers
<Boris> I want to say some kind of fybertech enhanced device
<Boris> but I don't want it uber-powerful
<Doc> Nothing like nanotech?
<Boris> yeah, probably nothing so advanced
<Boris> maybe like subdermal repair via lasers or something
<Boris> or ooh, holograms projected inside
<Boris> since HEAT is a big central thing around here
<Boris> something like that
<Doc> Eh, I don't know how effective that'd be.
<Boris> think of it like tiny forcefields doing skillful repair work
<Doc> I was thinking maybe not nanotech, but microtech at least, which would allow a holographic projection of the area in question with subsequent use of laser scalpels and such for noninvasive surgery.
<Boris> yeah
<Boris> thats basically hwat I was getting at
<Boris> meaning you have to explicitly control it
<Doc> But not so much projecting holograms in, as much as projecting a zoomed in area out for fine control.
<Boris> and its more like super advanced surgery than magic healing
<Doc> It'd be like Operation, only with a 3-D model.
<Boris> yeah, roughly there
<Boris> ok so lesse
<Boris> Doctor Worm, working for the Man, with his fybertech advanced microsurgery robots
<Doc> Heh, I thought of Metal Gear's little bloodstream bots.
<Boris> all thats left is a design which which we should go out and talk to deck about
03:13] <Boris> I want something that says field work
[03:13] <Boris> but is still a little classy
[03:14] <Boris> [03:13] <Deck> Classy War Field Doctoring? I dunno how to do that
[03:15] <Boris> picture of what I meant
[03:15] <Boris>
http://www2.hq.nato.int/shape/graphics/2005/0511/b051109c.jpg[03:15] <Boris> like that but less camo and no armband perhaps
[03:23] <Boris>
http://www.arnadal.no/film/actors/images/alda_alan_1975.jpg[03:23] <Boris> actually thats not too bad
[03:24] <Boris> I had a more offwhite color pictured but it does look kinda classy and active at the same time
[03:23] <Deck> I want to give Doc some cool rugged Doctor look
[03:23] <Deck> Like Mr. Lupus
[03:24] <Doc> Make it a combination of Hawkeye and House, and you'll collapse the interent.
[03:24] <Boris> FTW
