    So, This Happened.

    I was messing around with some ODD and once the update hit, we hit the C table and got an ember prime bp, right? Lucky us. The game crashed right after and when I restarted to do the update and see if I kept my little bundle of plat, I find THIS in it's stead. Glitch? Or was someone on my team a hack and I unintentionally benefited?

    "Well, thank you for the vote of confidence and information, Sir Mogis. I'll be sure to keep that in mind when and if we need to vent the ship's atmosphere and anything else that might need venting into The Cold Embrace of the Void." Brunell said, voice going hollow and echoing out of nowhere when speaking of the Void. "Did you like that? Neat trick I picked up. Really shakes the lesser minds up."

    "Really, you say that now. Just wait until everything is covered in sticky anti-matter and exploding. Or covered in plasma and melting. Or both at the same time. Or blatant abuse of Orokin technology in a low speed chase. That last one was a riot," she said, reminiscing about previous descents into the Void and general missions. At least her destructive habits can be focused towards something in this mission.

    Burnell did her best to maintain the Tenno decorum during the breifing. This whole thing sounded like a chance to use disposable assets to rid the system of the technocyte-infested plague on the Grineer ship. With a ship that could easily just puncture the hull and vent whatever else was in there, the twitchy Tenno was running through situation after situation in her head. Most of them involved setting the ship's Void drive to 'screw this thing and everything in the immediate vicinity.' A few were a lot less destructive, but the Orokin-enhanced Tenno found them to be a lot less 'fun' in her own warped opinion. 

     

    With the dismissal from the Grineer captain, Burnell began to go over her weapons via remote application installed into her Warframe. Primary weapons that would work best against the infested hordes often involve slashing through their fleshy bodies. Burnell hummed and hawed, before setting on her highly modifed Kohm with an increased choke and thus a highly narrow spread for a shotgun. Perfect for slashing through hordes of fleshy nasties. Her usual sidearm, the Angstrum, seemed a little ill-fiting for such closed-quarters fighting and the explosions, while pretty, make for a wonderful hull-puncturing hazard. To this end, the ready-to-go Tenno pulled from deep storage the Grineer particle cannon, the Atomos. Keeping with her usual style, Burnell kept her Glaive. She head back to the Liset to get equipped for this mission. It would be like nothing she had ever undertaken.

    Coming back aboard the Brutus, the Nova stood beside the Rhino, looking up at the bomb. The 1.6 meter Tenno looked up to her hulking brother-in-arms.

     

    "Like it? A Centimani-Class destabilization bomb. Such a thing can easily destroy a celestial object the size of Earth's moon," Burnell said. "Poof, rendered to it's constituent atoms in a brilliant flash and meant to be carried by a Fomorian battleship. Really, it was a case of building a ship around a bomb, but it's not as if there wasn't a precedent for that sort of thing."

     

    There was a brief pause. Brief enough for Burnell, anyway.

     

    "Before you ask, I pulled the data from a shipyard during a mission. Got to know who's on top of their boom-boom game. Know what I'm saying?"

    Valkyr and Excalibro are good melee-ers, Rhino being a close second with high armor, an additional layer of health and universal damage buff as well as access to the steel charge aura. It takes a little Forma (Mainly for Steel Charge), but Zephyr can utilize her naturally high Shield and Health values as well as Turbulance to deflect all but the most stubborn of projectiles. Stealth 'frames like Ash and Loki only really benefit with melee by being cloaked all the time and scoring that unaware damage bonus. Saryn, too, can melee if she has access to Regenerative Molt and Steel Charge. Volt can increase swing speed and Mesa can do fine with Shooting Gallery and Shattersheild. A Cold-aligned Chroma is also a stubborn melee monster due to that precious V-polarity aura slot and Elemental Ward and Vex Armor.

     

    Breaking it down:
    Tier One (Go-to melee): Valkyr, Excalibur, Rhino, Ash, Chroma
    Tier Two (Needs a little modding/one forma): Saryn, Mesa, Loki, Zephyr

    Tier Three (Can augment melee, but needs more than a little love): Volt
    Tier Four: All other 'frames.

    The regular sensors of other ships have trouble penetrating the Tenno Voidmask, which in this case, such inefficiency is a blessing as a garrishly colored Liset traveled through the perilous space between spaces. Cruising through the Void at a snail's pace was a simple feat for the ship's Cephelon Dungain, though it didn't help that his operator was within the engine compartment behind the armory.

     

    <Lady Burnell, you have a message awaiting you,> he said. The Cephelon was answered by the noises of tools and a sudden jet of light coming out from the back of the ship with a shriek of laughter. Within the engine compartment, a svelte Warframe wrestled with a flailing tube venting hot plasma into the ship.

     

    <Lady Burnell, I am detecting a sudden leak within the plasma reactor. Just what are you doing to my engines?>

     

    "Oh, very simple, Dungain. I'm re-routing the Liset's plasma reactor to dump excess energy into the engine's compound matrix," Burnell explained, chipper as ever, despite the sudden searing of her Warframe. "I may have to pull some energy from the Void penetration array, though. The plasma reactor is NOT happy right now."

     

    <Won't that pointlessly increase my speed while pulling energy away from vital systems that allows us more efficient travel through the deep Void, my Lady?>

     

    "Of course!"

     

    <But-> the Cephelon had started to protest, but was quickly cut off.

     

    "Operator override, code 4-J-4-H-Sigma," Burnell stated. There was a calm before Dungain spoke again.

     

    <I am elated that I may now go faster in real space at the expense of my Void travelling systems, Lady Burnell. Now, about that message.>

     

    "Oh, yeah, that. Dungain, commence playback with universal translation codecs. This reactor is really fighty!" There was a laugh thrown in with a small grunt as the Nova Prime tried to brute-force the plasma line back into the reactor.

     

    < Ahem, 'Tenno, this is Captain Lek'Tress. The Grinner Empire is in need of your aid. Should you accept this contract, this message has enclosed a set of coordinates to the Cruiser Brutus, as well as a clearance code for you to be permitted to land on board this ship. Your assistance is of the utmost necessity, and you will be rewarded handsomely should you complete your task.'>

     

    "Did I hear that right, Dungain? Come do our chores for us and get some sweet Grineer loot?" Brunell said, jamming the plasma line back into the reactor with the thing beginning to vibrate violently.

     

    <Clever paraphrase, Lady Burnell,> Dungain had responded, a certain amount of vitriol synthesized in his voice.

     

    With a swift motion, the Tenno applied percussive maintenance to the reactor, the device ceasing the menacing vibration. "Of course it is, I said it. Now, be a dear and make way for the Brutus."

     

    <Of course, my Lady.>

     

    ===

     

    With the Liset broadcasting the clearance codes, Burnell watched the main guns of the Brutus with a little hesitation as it slowed to a crawl after dropping into real space. While the enhanced Liset could theoretically dodge the cannon shots, the ship had minimal forward shielding and anything too violent might cause a feed-back loop in the reactor, causing a bright pink explosion to blot the cold and cruel vacuum of space. Thankfully, none of the Brutus' main cannons twitched as the Grineer signaled the Liset and marked out a landing path for it.

     

    Docking and disembarking, Burnell had to ignore some gut instincts. Pulling out the Glaive and making what little remained of the cloned insides into outsides was not a way to start a 'friendly' mission. Even if the last time that little tea party didn't go to well. Chairs were thrown, catastrophic decompressions happened. Fun times were not had by all.

     

    Escorted by Marines, Burnell noted that she too was in the presence of a fellow Tenno. She could barely see past the broad-shouldered Rhino that had also answered the call. She dug an elbow into his side, violating whatever concept of personal space the future may have held. "Wow wee, aren't you a big one? Tell me, what brings a Rhino all the way out here? Can't be the company, right?"

     

    And then she had noticed Captain Lek'Tress. Yet another tall person in the room that caused her to crane her neck up to get the full picture. "Why is everyone so tall around here?" she murmured, feeling like the odd Kubrow of the litter.

    So any high-leveled infestation mission with woefully under-leveled gear and the spawn rate set to 'Screw everything, but screw these five players in particular.'?

     

    How long will we last? Will Burnell be strangled at the hands of Raphire? Will Shinai throw a clever quip before activating Exalted Blade one last time? Will the cynic find something worth fighting for in the Void-forsaken cesspit of a ship? WILL CERBERUS FIND LOVE?

     

    But seriously, as long as we all have fun and a chance to show off, it's all good.

     

    Edit: Also, have a Burnell - http://i.imgur.com/pNyld1w.png

    NAME: Burnell

    GENDER: Female

    WARFRAME: Nova Prime with Slipstream helmet

    WEAPONS: 

    -Primary: Kohm, the mighty exponential shotgun with a tight choke for a focused stream of pellets.

    -Secondary: Angstrum, slotted up for as many micro-rockets as the barrel could conceivably handle, and then some.

    -Melee: Glaive, modded up for flight speed and bouncing around like a kubrow puppy on fresh genetic stimulants.

    PERSONALITY: Burnell is, simply put, a genius. However, she is a manic genius and somewhat unfocused. She's prone to fits and bouts madness and laughing as she throws lateral thinking to a whole new level. Using her Wormhole to fling not only herself but her Glaive into groups of enemies and use the many richochets to hit the most unlikely of targets, multiple Antimatter Drops to cause chain explosions, and Null Stars as hovering explosive traps. A lot of her stories tend to end in a far-to-enthusiastic "AND THEN, EVERYTHING EXPLODED!"

     

    STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES:

    + Lateral thinking and unconventional uses of her abilities out the yin-yang.

    + Super-genius level intellect and able to process complex equations and figures in nanoseconds.

    + Hardcore modification expert. Who knew your run of the mill Lato could do THAT after she got her spindly fingers on it.

     

    - Flighty dame.

    - Headstrong, to the point of rashness and unpredictable behavior,

    - Personality is often refereed to as 'grating' at best. Burnell is not to be allowed on anything stealth related or where subtlety is required.
