[Vesper]
Vesper introduces himself to any newcomers.  "An airship this should be interesting."
He smiles to Alex and then to the others. "Were going to get some more cold iron on the way I hope."

Looking at Anne, Alex responds, "Not a true sniper but a
      markswoman myself. I have been working as the team's armorer as
      well. More of a ranger myself however. Pleased to make your
      acquaintance?" Her JA-12 is a pretty good sized rifle as well. 

Any strange reaction out of her dagger? 

The Coalition ranger can but shake her head. How can a good
      Coalition girl get involved with so much magic. She has heard of
      line ships and even seen pictures of them but has never
      encountered them. She has seen otehrs dress in as fantastic a
      clothing (ooc: I have a person who dresses in what is effectively
      a Napoleonic British Naval uniform)  

"Hello captain, I do not understand why are going to see whales
      though," Alex responds (ooc: Don't think Wales has been used as a
      location in her presence before.)

OOC: feeling a bit shoehorned here, as the GM went to the next scene without pausing...usually, in this sort of situation I just don't reply at all, since there's nothing for my character to interact with that hasn't already happened...but apparently the GM is waiting on me for a response, so...

Ted, Alex, Louissa, Vesper and Oz, along with Jacek the Borg, Oz,

The head of the council introduces the man. "This is Simon von
