CAC's spider photo


Recommended Posts

BYOND Key:Fire and Glory

Character name:CAC

Item name:Photo of a spider and a robot


Why is your character carrying said item to work?At one point CAC was given a spider in a jar by a lab assistant, he took it home, and it grew to be rather big, but a far cry from the man-eating spiders the station contains, CAC thoroughly enjoys messing with his co-workers in the quiet hours and likes to put them off by talking about his spider and showing them a photo of it.



Item function(s):Nothing, at all, it exists purely as an object that can be carried and viewed for a description.

Item description:It's a photo of a cyan IPC holding a thick fuzzy spider the size of a football.

Item appearance:Like normal photos but black-grey with some blue on it instead of a tiny screenshot.



How will you use this to better interact with crew and/or stimulate RP?CAC has already talked to several people about the spider he has on Odin, he can (and will) show them the photo of it as well as use it to assist in 'show don't tell' for anyone new he wants to tell about it.

Additional comments:I feel this'd be a very good object for the character, essentially the only reason CAC has the spider is because he thinks it's hilarious when humans get freaked out and it can't poison him in his sleep because he's a robot, and CAC does enjoy using varying degrees of shock value on humans during his work.

I was actually going to draw Fire a picture of CAC with his spider. I'm not sure if it could be incorporated into the custom item somehow, but if I finish it soon, I'll send it over. Maybe make a pixellated version for the spessmens.
Relax, while you drawing it was the inspiration, I don't need it for the item and any implementation would probably be at least somewhat awkward.

Implementation wise, the easiest would probably just to have a link in the examine description :P

Yess, but then I'd need to fuck around with image hosting so the link wouldn't go expiring or shit, and I don't really like the idea of some guy having to click a link to out-of-game if they want to know what the item's meant to contain.


Soo yup, going to sit with just a short description.
