Dannylonglegs

Is this confirmed? ~Insectoid Aristocrat

My profile picture changes regularly, but it's usually my Sigfig, "Dannylonglegs". Currently it's displaying the "Danny Longlegs" that I'm playing as host of my mafia game. Story is that growing up my favorite themes were Rock Raiders and Insectoids. While "Doc" was my favorite character from RR, the Insectoids didn't really have easily distinguished characters... and in fact the combination I currently use is not a "canon" combo, I don't think. It might be but it's hard to tell. The darn thing's very well loved. there's not much of the face to see underneath his helmet, sad to say. Either way, As a kid I'd "make up" names for the characters that turned out upon later review to have been somewhat canon names for the characters that I must have read in a magazine or something! so that's the story of Dannylonglegs. I love sci-fi, insects (and other arthropods) and aliens and weird stuff like that, so I feel the ominous and mysterious Danny Longlegs figure fits that well! Also, the gun is an aquazone hose gun that lost its rubber bits. (It's purist) I don't see many people using the guns even though they're super cool looking. So that's why he has that awesome gun/blaster. The character he represents varies from story to story. Sometimes he's a manipulative alien sociopath (Blacktron Mafia) and sometimes he's a heroic character (AG, although he's not yet well developed there). Almost always he's loyal to the Queen and/or the Insectoid people in a kind of g-man-esque way. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Hehehehe! Maybe! I've opened a few now! They are adorable in a disgusting way! I love 'em! I needs moar! Ooh! That's a great idea! It's a shame there's no "Satyr" leg piece, but I totally approve of that headpiece recolor ed for a Satyr! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

I will admit to not paying very close attention. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

I don't think there's need for that. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Blacktron Mafia: Day 4 Players only, please. Comments on how great JJP is at editing belong in the discussion feed. : "I did warn you not to trust me." : "Aye, I do recall..." Years ago, in the same room.... "Hello, I'm Colonel Jack Jones, the new commanding officer of this Federation Facility. I take it you're the Insectoid Ambassador? Insector Longlegs, was it?" : "Danny'll suffice. So, what brings you to the balmy beaches of LI-420?" "I... I just returned from the war on Planet Australia. Blacktron... They rounded up those who swore loyalty to the Federation... They lined us up for miles.... And their leader... Vicious... She killed every tenth person. I was 9. My son was 10." "Hmm. That's unfortunate. Now, I must warn you: Don't trust me. My loyalty lies to the Insectoid Empire, not the Federation. I only act to benefit my people." "Don't trust you? Hm. That's the most honest thing I've heard a man say in a long time. All these bureaucrats I have to manage are so insincere. I respect that. I think you and I will get along just fine." __________ "We don't have to fight, you know. The Insectoid Empire will accept you as a refugee. I'll see to it personally. I'd hate to have to kill you over something so utterly insignificant as this planet and all its inhabitants." "No. It's not about the planet... you don't even understand what you've done... and that may be the worst part of all. No. This. Ends. Now. " "Oh be reasonable! Your feeble human frame is no match for my cybernetically enhanced physique, and heightened reaction time! " Night 3 "Orders from the boss! We're taking out the Ambassador and his lackey tonight. You take the Colonel. You take the Ambassador. I'll finish what Raygun started." "Soon the Blackness shall consume all. Our time is at hand. "Hey! Where the Frack are they? "Just think it over! Your human life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friend!" "I'm not even this game's primary antagonist!" "Fuck! You! "I'm very sorry for what I'm about to do." "No you're not..." "It has been a pleasure working with you. You know, I truly admire your stubborn resolve and your force of perseverance despite overwhelming odds... It's a shame this all fell apart. A pity I had to do this..." Meanwhile.... Bock Pathos (Bob) Received a few unwanted night guests. The first serenaded Bock with . The next brought in a disco ball and performed mariachi music... The third was the ghost of Christmases past. And then someone switched his outfit. "I've been assimilated!" He exclaimed! Elsewhere, a mysterious figure brought fruits to friends. And another ghost returned to quote unquote "Screw with [the living]" And a potted plant fell to the floor, and shattered, As the Night turned to Day, the morning bell rang. The facility members shuffled into the meeting room. Fewer than before, but not as few as some feared. "What's all that blood from?" Someone asked "Where's the Colonel?" Another asked. [/url] Then, a tired looking Danny stepped into the meeting room. "So, Upon 'investigation' I found that 'Rip' sewer (Captain Nemo) was Loyal to the Federation." He stated, his normal chipper attitude now more subdued, and serious. "So. Who's next?" The characters looked at each-other awkwardly... "24 hours till you can vote." _______________________________________________ Major Dave: "I found a Doctor." Elsewhere....

I will not intervene should someone suggest there are clues in the pictures, because there are none. There are not clues in the character flavor text.

Very soon now... ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Wow, I guess you can rush art. Gimme an hour guys! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Sorry for the quantity of pictures, comrade. You can't rush art! :points_up: ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Make that another 30. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Very quickly learning that. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Due to some transportation issues I have run into, this may be another "12:00" start. Sorry to those of you who sleep. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Hahaha! This is awesome! Love the body shaping, and the great coat is wonderful! The face is very clever, and quite amusing! Great work! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

This is an awesome figure! Great details on the corset! You're kraken me up! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Indeed I did! I didn't even loose my seat as branch head like I thought I would! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Bridgewater Mall finally has the mini figures in stock! I have like 5 less than a full set... but I got 5 flies! now I only need (at least) 5 more flies to fulfill my unholy ambitions! for the swarm! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Thank you for the generosity! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

All actions have been recieved, and the next day will be up sometime tonight. I still have several pictures to take, but I expect I should be ready to start the day maybe as early as 10 pm EST or thereabouts ~Insectoid Aristocrat

20 credits to Bob. ~Danielle Long

I will accept night actions until 12:30 am (thirty past midnight) EST. Until then, all actions can be changed. That means you have about 10 hours to submit or resubmit your night actions. I'll probably be asleep at that time though. Once this deadline is reached, I will start the day about 24 hours later. Get Prank actions in before then though, please, so I can take those pictures today. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

He's soOOoo cutee! :wub: I got 4 of him! d'aww! I wuv my bat minifiuwes! Also, the Evil Knight: He's just a perfect mini figure. The spikes of villainy are a perfect touch! He's menacing and very Blackguard-y!An all-round stupendous figure. Alien Hitler: I mean the Alien Villainess... That's lipstick, and not "facial hair" Even though we can clearly see that "Her" actual hair is the same colour as the "lipstick." Definitely not Alien Hitler. Cthulhu Alien: First off, he's adorable. Second off, he's Cthulhu, third off, I own 7 of him. Kimono girl: She's perfect! I love Kimonos, and the Company pulled off the Japanese aesthetic delightfully! Galaxy Patrol: All-round solid minifigure. Viking Woman: That face is the absolute best female face. It's just generically "Unhappy" enough to be used for almost anything! The rest of her is great too! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Octan is also in most need. Being a massive Mega-corp requires continual growth, and new employees! Octan is always hiring! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Just noticed that. Hope there's nothing you don't mind us all seeing, JJP! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

It's all JJP! I give directions, and the man just does it like magic! I love how he did that shot especially! :grin: :wub: Also, thank you very much, Captain Nemo, for playing! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

The denizens of Meeting Room 1 had come to a standstill. Unsure of how to progress, and still lacking in evidence on which to base their votes, the town began to lose its zeal and bloodlust... Which didn't suit Danny Longlegs well.... The Insectoid Ambassador removed the room's chairs and leapt back onto the table. "You have to vote!" He announced. "Them's tha rules." The Town gazed up at him, trusting him to have their best interests at heart. "So!" He continued "Who'll it be!? Who will you select today?! Remember, puny humans, Blacktron is here, and they will kill us all.... If you don't kill them first, that is!" The Town thought for a while, discussing possibilities, role-claiming, etc... All the while, Danny watched them from behind his dark green insectoid fish-bowl helmet. "So! Will it be the half-human half-Ufoan-Cyborg? Is she Blacktron?" Danny demanded of the assembled group, swiveling to face 4 of 2. The group discussed and then fell silent. "No? You're not sure?" He questioned. "Alright. Who's next?!" He queried. The lean Insectoid swiveled once more, twisting to face the opposite side of the table. "So what of this Paul fello?" He asked, "He's the only one with a chair still, the lazy sonofagun. Is he Blacktron?" The Insectoid waited for an answer, the glassy helmet reflecting the light of the meeting room. "OK! Next?!" The Insectoid demanded, a note of frustration in his voice. "Y'all have to vote!" He reminded them. The Insectoid swiveled once more. "What about those in this corner?" He questioned. "Bock? Zipzop? Anyone? Anybody want to be brave and sentence one of them to death?" The lone being stood upon the table, the crowd below waiting anxiously, and discussing ferociously. The Insectoid could only watch them as they made up their minds. Beneath the table, and behind the crowd, Colonel Jack Jones watched the scene in dismay. "The fools" He mumbled to himself. "What the hell is Danny doing, leading a lynch mob like this? It's almost as if the damn fool wants us all to perish." Danny swiveled back to face the camera to his original position, waiting for the group to make a call. "Oh!" He announced. "What about her!?" He questioned, gesturing to 'Rip' Sewer. "She's one day from retiring!" He stated, "That must mean she's Blacktron, right?!" He demanded, frantically. The group muttered to themselves, and finally enough of them muttered in the affirmative for Danny to feel confident in his target. He grinned. "Then it's settled." He announced, clearly pleased. "You have chosen 'Rip' as today's target of interrogation." "Oh, you're kidding me!" 'Rip' belted. "You're not going to kill me? Are you?" She demanded. "We'll see." Stated the Insectoid, stepping down from his pedestal, for a god was he, "We'll see." The Meeting room was cleared away by Colonel Jack Jones as Danny left with 'Rip'. "Alright!" the grumpy man stated. "Go on and git out! I don't want any stragglers today!" He declared. "You'd have better been right about 'Rip'." He stated under his breath. "I don't know how much longer we all have." ____________ Later, In Danny's evil lair private diplomatic room... "So that's her alignment. Good to know, Onyx." "Now, Ambassador Longlegs, what of your promise?" "Hold your earth-horses, there Onyx, I stated that I wouldn't hand over the facility to your people until they outnumbered those loyal to the Federation. It seems like a smart rule to me." "Your arbitrary allegiance frustrates me. Pick a side, Longlegs, Blacktron or the Federation?!" "I'm already on a side! I'm loyal to the Insectoid Empire... To whom you'd be paying tribute, should you want this planet. Gotta pay the rent, after all." "It sounds to me like you're playing both sides." "Yup! My house, my rules." "When my people get there, you will be playing by my rules... and the cards will be very-much stacked against you. End transmission." "What a nice lady." -------------------------- Meanwhile, in the local Blacktron Message Intercept Base.... "End transmission." Onyx: "We're so close now. We will soon be able to erase another planet from our list." Princess Lee'ah: "Yes, It's wonderful! Together we will liberate the galaxy from the tyranny of the Federation! Do you have confirmation that their shields will be down?" Onyx: "The Ambassador has decided to stand in our way... so we will go through him. The shields will be down." Princess Lee'ah: "Excellent! And our agents on the inside?" Onyx: "I will go to see to the liberation of this planet myself. This revolution will not be civilized." -------------------------------- Back in Danny's Quarters: ; "I should have known you were up to no good!" : "Wow! How long were you standing there?!" : "Long enough. I heard everything." : "Everything?" : "Everything." "That's unfortunate. So... What's next?" : "You're going to pay for everything you've done!" : "I've got Diplomatic immunity!" : "I don't mean in court..." : "I notice you don't have a gun." : "You don't have one either." : "Then we're both unarmed?" "Not quite." : "I was going to say the same thing." : So... This is how it's going to be. : "I did warn you not to trust me." GET YOUR NIGHT ACTIONS IN 24 HOURS!
