I'm working on the name. My usual one sounds a bit too much like I'm ripping off HP to be suitable for a fanfiction group.
And so, in this tradition, I shall name this kitten:
Bob.
Just kidding, it's actually Julius Itulia Dent.
The Third.
Earl of Strathgordon.
Why does the cat get a more special name than me?
This is actually my second post, the first one being giving highly dangerous and powerful sci-fi weaponry from an obscure fandom to another new guy. And isn't that what PPC is all about?
Welcome to the PPC! Take a giant bladed yo-yo (currently being nominated for Most Underwhelming Weapon!) to go for your mecha. And, yes, that is a large part of the PPC. Just be a bit careful with that, though—we don't want our agents becoming too strong. There's no fun in an easy mission.
Hi! I'm a newbie, too. Have a lightsaber. Choose your color.
Well.... Red's too Angsty and forever tainted by Pansy, Wangsty Anakin. And Purple is Samuel L Jackson's realm.
So, Generic Blue Lightsaber it is!
Feed it only Generic Meat!
Hello! Have a secenteen foot long, multicolored, wool, knit scarf (curly wig not included), and a bag of jelly babies.
Please use them IRresponsibly.
So fresh, you can smell the tannery! Please do not throw it at anything, as there may or may not be an explosive hidden within it.
Fair winds and have a nice trip here!
Enjoy these Really Cool Shades (TM) as a welcoming gift.
Have some somewhat threatening, moderately powerful sci-fi weaponry from a vaguely well-known fandom.
Hello and welcome to the PPC Posting Board! Have some chocolate, and enjoy your stay here!
Welcome to the Board! Please deposit your sanity in the provided receptacle. *indicates bucket marked "Warg Fodder"* You shan't need it here. Also, here's a bag of sound effects. Don't let them ouuuuuuuuuuuuut...
Sanity? I gave up on that when Lovecraft entered my life.
Ia! Ia! Cthulhu Fhtagn!
You can have whatever is left though.
Poking newbies is traditional. Of course it isn't meant to bruise. *poke*
Among other traditions, many of them crazy, we have an ever-growing list of Links that we throw at all newbies in the hopes that they will be read. In relative order of sensible-reading-ness, they are ...
* The Original PPC Series, which we assume you've already read.
* The List of Killed Badfic, which will direct you to a large number of non-Original PPC Missions.
The Board:
* The Board Constitution
* The FAQ: For the Board
The Wiki:
* We have our very own PPC Wiki
* The very-important-to-read-before-requesting-Permission Permission article
* Our (my!) Guide To The PPC
* The Mission Writing Guide
* The Slash-Sporking Guide
* The FAQ: For Newbies.
When you are ready to edit the wiki, make sure to read Neshomeh's excellent editing tutorial.
And finally, but very usefully,
* The List of Everything PPC
It's nice to meet you. :)
Simon, eh? Other people have epic usernames, and you pick Simon? Genius!
Have a pet cat. You may name him whatever you wish. Sorry, I ran out of sci-fi weaponry.

It's a good thing I'm not handing out bolters 'cause I'd have ran out a long time ago. Here's your cadian lasgun. I'm gonna need to break into the armory to equip all of you...
Last time I had one of those it was a game of Dark Heresy. I made a teammate's head explode as the brain boiled. The headless burning corpse then ran at me.
Why was it burning? Lasfire + that character's ammo stash.
Fun times.
Dark Heresy has the best Misfire table ever. A person's bone marrow boiling causing them to explode like a frag grenade? YOU BET.
And now I know my Agent's method of execution.
*Digs out DH Rulebook and dice*
Yet another new recruit to our ranks. *happydance* Here's your official Frying Pan of DoomTM and some chocolate-covered almonds. Enjoy.
Why, hello there, Simon! You remind me of this guy from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann...
So, have a mecha! A giant mecha! That shoots really hot stuff!
Never know when you'll need a Frying Pan of Doom or a Mecha.
Especially the Mecha. Ooh! Maybe the Tech guys can graft the pan on the mech...
*Dreams of slapping WH40K Titans with said cooking implement*
Heh. Alton Brown would be proud of you for multi-tasking. ^^
Probably in Gundam badfic. All I know about Gundam is that it's about a bunch of hot guys who pilot big mechas.
