Dr. Arnold Fresner PhD - Srkad - 06-06-2010 **Incoming Transmission** **Opening Database** **Decoding** Research Log: Hybrid Nomad Investigations Researcher: Dr. Arnold Fresner Date: June 6th, 800 A.S. Location: *Classified* Progress on the variant stabilizer is moving...well... slower than expected. We assumed this would take no longer than three weeks to put together but it seems we have miscalculated. Going into our eighth week now and we finally got the thing running. Our first three experiments killed the host. We are not sure exactly why but we believe it may have something to do with the power cell we are using to run the machine. The current power cell has been used since at least 790 A.S if not earlier. Either way we are going to have to procure a new one, which is not going to be easy. Janko said it could take up to 6 months to find one...it looks like we are going to have to continue to run the experiments for the time being. All in all we have made little progress and our investors are threatening to cut our funds, we cant allow that to happen! Lane said she knew someone who could find us a Nomad power cell...I'm not sure what to think of that, tempering with Nomad artifacts could lead to the infestation of us all and I'm not sure yet if I am willing to risk that...not just yet...not just yet... **End Transmission** ------------------------------------------------------------- **Incoming Transmission** **Opening Database** **Decoding** Research Log: Hybrid Nomad Investigations Researcher: Dr. Arnold Fresner Date: September 9th, 800 A.S. Location: *Classified* It has been over three months since my last log, I have been far too busy to keep track of my logs so this will be a back up log on the past three months... No progress was made with the old power cell, all hosts were killed and we were unable to procure any samples. Our investors threatened to cut our money if we did not have any substantial evidence within 3 weeks time. It was time, it seemed, to take Lane up on her offer. We asked her the price...Lets just say it was more than I had made almost my entire life...We went to our investors but they were not pleased. I promised them results if they allowed us to money for the Nomad Power Cell and finally they agreed. With the money in hand I greeted Lane and we had our agreement. The delivery took only three days, we installed it with complete success and were ready to commence our first experiment with the new cell. When we powered up the machine we were surprised that nothing strange happened...we were expecting at least some change but everything was exactly as it should be. We placed the woman in the converter and pressed the button. The door slammed shut and the machine began to purr. It took thirty seven hours for the process to be complete, half of the time it took for the previous power cell. We opened the door with great anticipation. What we saw, was indescribable...like nothing the world had ever seen before. We have done it, we have successfully made a Nomad Hybrid, a sentient being! Ten years of my life dedicated to this project had finally payed off. Since the creation of the first Hybrid Nomad we have been simply trying to control it, trying to harness its powers and make it bend to our will. The substantial advantages we could have over the other houses will make all this work worth while but it could be quite a long time before we have full control of the subject. For the time being we have had very little contact with the subject but she has spoken to us in rather rough, short, choppy sentences and flashes of what we call "Walking Dreams". We are not exactly sure what these dreams mean but we assume it must be some form of communication. I will continue to track the developments of the subject as she progresses. **End Transmission** ------------------------------------------------------------- **Incoming Transmission** **Opening Database** **Decoding** Research Log: Hybrid Nomad Investigations Researcher: Dr. Arnold Fresner Date: September 15th, 800 A.S. Location: *Classified* On September 13th 800 A.S. our transports were attacked by a group of Lane Hackers known as "The Hellfire Legion". They have stolen all of our research, all of our technology, everything. Ten years of research all for nothing. The government has decided to cut all funding and close our department. I guess I am out of the job. I will, however, not give up. I am going to one way or another procure another subject to proceed with my research. In the mean time I am going to study the Nomads as much as possible. I plan on buying myself a Deep Space Explorer and studying everything I can about these creatures. I hope to record my findings as soon as possible. **End Transmission** //Please provide feed back Here on anything! Thank you! Dr. Arnold Fresner PhD - Srkad - 06-07-2010 **Incoming Transmission** **Opening Database** **Decoding** Research Log: Hybrid Nomad Investigations Researcher: Dr. Arnold Fresner Date: June 6th, 817 A.S. Location: *Classified* While flying through New York today I saw the most peculiar thing I have seen in a long time. I saw a, what must have been, very young Nomad. I say it must have been very young because it was calm. There was an order pilot near by, and we engaged in conversation. Order: Hail Doctor. Dr. Fresner: Hail Order! Dr. Fresner: Oh my god a Nomad! Order: Yes, I suggest you not get too close. Dr. Fresner: I haven't seen a Nomad this close up in so long! This is absolutely amazing! Order: This particular Nomad is almost always very passive in its interactions with humans. Dr. Fresner: Why is that? Order: Well it must be a very young Nomad. Dr. Fresner: I see, in all my years of research I have never encountered a Nomad like this Order: Well you must not have come across very many live Nomads then. Dr. Fresner: No, only one...and it wasn't your typical Nomad. Order: I see, well these types of Nomads are generally very passive. I have never gotten this close to a live Nomad in the wild before! We chatted for a bit longer and I got all the pictures I needed and departed. Behavioral note: Young Nomads seem very passive, they may attack it seems, as they had weapons, but my guess would be only when attacked. After some time two more young Nomads appeared and they congregated together, odd to so many together in the New York system I couldn't believe it. And for me to be able to get so close was absolutely amazing! Hopefully I will be able to record more behavior such as this in the future. **End Transmission** Dr. Arnold Fresner PhD - Srkad - 06-11-2010 **Incoming Transmission** **Opening Database** **Decoding** Research Log: Hybrid Nomad Investigations Researcher: Dr. Arnold Fresner Date: June 10th, 817 A.S. Location: *Classified* I had another run in with a young Nomad today. I learned today that these Nomads are called "Morphs". Apparently, all Morphs act in much the same manner, they are all very docile. It is very interesting that these Nomads allow humans to get so close. I was able to engage in what could be called "communication" today. It was not much, it was about as much as a Hybrid...The only difference being that a Hybrid's speech makes a lot more sense... This Morph was very confusing but showed the ability to communicate thoughts through images even at this young age. This encounter today showed me that Nomads are born with some basic abilities such as telecommunication and the ability to telepathically share images. I will tag and name each Morph I come in contact with to try and keep track of them easier. This Morph is name Ka'Rena Dr. Fresner: Ka'Rena...Interesting Ka'Rena: Light-less (Curious) -ours-(?) Dr. Fresner: Where are you from? Ka'Rena: (Confusion) Define(?) Dr. Fresner: Home? Ka'Rena: Ours Home(?) Dr. Fresner: Yours home? Ka'Rena: Awaiting return elder.lair Dr. Fresner: Elder lair? Ka'Rena: (Image of a nomad 'base' of a lair and a city sphere) Dr. Fresner: Most interesting...Others? Ka'Rena (With many 'elder' nomad fighters and capital ships) Dr. Fresner: Other 'Morphs'? That is when the Morph left. Most peculiar creatures, these Morphs. I hope to have more encounters in the future to further study these interesting creatures. **End Transmission**
