Thamian's 'barrack'
Commander Xerxes Thamian Meridian Started conversation Apr 11, 2003
You enter a dark room, with a lighted weapons rack on your left filled with 20 different types of pistol, 5 different rifles, a small hand grenade dispenser, a bazooka hanging alongside 20 different cases of different ammunition, and 30 different knives. Just beyond the weapons rack is another rack full of tools.
On the right is a wardrobe full of lots of different military uniforms(standard, desert, tropical,artic, dress, etc.), predominately colonels uniforms, but there are a few sergant's uniforms. Beyond there is another wardrobe full of different types of battle armor, and at the end of this is a charging berth for an armored space-suit (this is empty most of the time).
In the middle of the room is a desk cluttered with military memorabilia, and a computer terminal. On the right of the desk is a bed. On the left there is a fridge. And behind the desk is a large, comfortable-looking leather chair.
The whole of the opposite wall is taken up by a huge oak bookcase, packed with Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, Issac Asimov, Frank Herbert, and Anne McCaffery books.
And the whole of the ceiling is taken up by an enormous, black flag, which has two massive, crossed, white cookries inside a white circle.
And below this circle, in blood-red letters, are the words:

It is not dark. It has got a florescent strip light around the top of the walls.

*colonel, gripped by worry for Krytie, grabs a multi purpose toolkit, and runs out of room and down to the B-H-P-U suite*

*colonel swings by on his way to the bridge, and puts up a sign on the door saying: KRYTIE, MOVE ANYTHING AND I'LL START MUCKING AROUND YOUR BRAIN WITH MY RESYNCHRONIZER.*
