Hmm, a light start, but hopefully that will improve over the next few weeks.
THE ANNOYED SAMOANS
My favorite of the show. They're in traditional Headshrinker/Meng/Wild Samoan attire but are much more PC about it (well, 2/3 at any rate).
OF NOTE: If Ozzie really designed anything on the space station, we're all in trouble.
LINE OF THE RP:-Moses on Eating Tourists.
RATING: *** 1/2 (Since they're all intro RPs, I'm grading on a sliding scale.)
REX CREED
More of a "Hey, remember me?" kind of thing, but not a bad way to introduce newbies to Rex Creed's violent ways. I'd be interested to see where he fits in.
NOTE/LINE/RATING: N/A
B.A. JIVE
Aww, I miss the old Pawnbroker. Still, if he's going to be anything more than a punchline machine in this go-around it's probably necessary. More serious look from JP sees him as the first challenger for the "Dangerous" championship and mocking Wolf Masterson and *ahem* Derrick Ford. Left himself WIDE OPEN for retort though.
OF NOTE: Of all the NPC characters, B.A. Jive is most deserving of any championship. His presence means that I know at least one of my trio team members (not that it takes a lot of brains to figure it out).
LINE OF THE RP:
RATING: ** 1/2
DERRICK L. FORD
FAIL
Nah, this was decent but I could have done better. I've noticed it takes me a few RPs to get into the swing of a character, so by the next one I should be alright.
Pretty standard promo. It'll get easier as I learn more about the characters. For now, target number one for Ford is Hayden, not Masterson.
OF NOTE: N/A
LINE OF THE RP: N/A
RATING: ** 1/2, for much the same reason as above.

LINE OF THE RP:
MOSES: That may be true, Offramp, but pretty much everyone forgets the garnish of flying fish roe and asparagus , and my personal opinion is that the inspired dusting of red wine vinegar single-handedly took you from two stars to three in the Zagat International Dining Guide.
RATING: *** 1/2 (Since they're all intro RPs, I'm grading on a sliding scale.)

JIVE: UGH, it just makes me sick, Blaze, when I think about either of those two crackers walking around with my gold.
