Head to my apartment, then take a walk to the traveler's office.
You show up at your apartment. Along the way, you pass a rather large squid metal thingy. Really, you didn’t want to look any more closely. Arriving at your apartment, you do a brief scan of the premises. It contains a small couch, an armchair, a bed, and an electrical outlet. Having examined the premises, you depart to the Traveler’s office. Upon arrival, you go in to see the Traveler. “Hello there! Glad to see you! Now, I believe I had some tasks for you. Ah, yes, there is a particularly troublesome branch of history. Around the year 3700, planet Charybdis. A particularly powerful Temporum-based object has appeared at that time. We need you to remove it. You’ll be going into a doomed timeline. Feel free to interact with whatever you find there, but get out quickly! It could wink out of existence at any time.

TIME TRAVEL.
You reach into your inner self and use that Temporum. You feel a cramping from within your chest, and a swirl as the space around you fades away. You feel light, light as a feather, light as a beam of light, zooming through time and space to find your destination. You find where you need to go, and lock onto the location. You arrive, and find yourself standing behind a burning building, looking out on a blasted hellscape. You realize you should probably have equipped your weapons.

"I couldn't give a damn as to what he is or will be. If he's such a problem, then send some goony to give him a forcible case of lead poisoning. You'd be better off killing him now anyways. Bugs are better squashed before they ruin your piquenique, you know. He could be Little Lord Fauntleroy with a queer little breast musket for all I care at the moment. So then, give me a reason why I should care. Why is it so important to know what he's up to, yet not important enough to stop him before he's doing it?"
“So, your concern is that we should just kill him? We have tried. We can’t. We’ve shot him, stabbed him, attempted to rip him limb from limb, poison, disintegration, etcetera, but he is damn near unkillable. We can’t stop him directly by force. But he hates to get his hands dirty. We can stop his plans. We can interfere with his operations, we can kill his agents, we can spread Temporum throughout the timeline. One of his main goals is to consolidate it all here, that much we know. And if that wasn’t enough, we know things he won’t tell you in a million years. Stuff we can prove is true, but which he swears wasn’t seven ways to Sunday. Once again, are you in?”
Year of origin: 1901 Planet of origin: Earth Physical description: Relatively fit, wearing wealthy aristocrat’s clothes. Trained in many forms of combat. Mental description: He likes deceiving people to get what he wants. It could be said that he has more trouble telling the truth than he does telling a lie, and most of the time the lie is more convincing. You may be his best friend and not even know his real name. Combat role: Double Agent Weapons: The Debutante Sir's Rifle Active abilities: Sucker Punch: With his training of combat styles and generally being shady, his sucker punch is something to be feared. It leaves his opponent open to attacks. Passive abilities: Slippery tongue: Coaxing, persuading, and deceiving are +1 due to his people skills.

Equip the rifle. You slot both of your weapons in their correct slots in preparation for a fight.
Year of origin: 1916 Planet of origin: Earth Physical description: A British soldier, fresh from the trenches of World War One. He is pretty large for a human, with ash blond hair and blue eyes. He wears the standard WW1 uniform and carries the standard, extremely heavy, backpack. He stands and walks as someone who is relieved to be out of the trenches. Mental description: Robert has the average thinking processes of a human being. He thinks of home and if he will ever see them again. He thinks of the war, and if he would survive it. He wonders if the war was even worth fighting. All that death over an arch-duke and a byzantine weave of alliances. He's generally fast on his feet. To have survived this long, he'd have to be. Combat role: Defender Weapons: Lee-Enfield Rifle Webley Mk VI Revolver Active Abilities: Dig-In: Robert digs into the ground a small trench. This provides excellent cover against enemy forces, but some weapons might render the trench irrelevant. Passive Abilities: Lucky: To have survived this long, you've got to be lucky. +1 to rolls randomly. Knows Too Much, and Yet Nothing At All: Unknown beneficial future plot effect.
