I'm hoping they at least change the Oracle in the mission to some other character (maybe introduce the Priestess, aka the lovely woman in white who answers the door in the first movie when Morpheus and Neo meet with the Oracle). But yeah,...

Fertility clinics plan to offer 'designer' baby services

Where's the RP?

I've been posting most of my stuff to our faction's forum, but I generally stay IC most of the time that I'm jacked in. We generally run a lot of small in-house storylines, but we mingle with other factions when we get the chance.
