I understand some of you are reluctant to change your names or use a different moniker when we make the drop in 1916's Gallipoli. If you're not from a standardized Earth, I suggest you reconsider. If you need assistance, I'll assign you one myself. You don't have to consider them names but codenames to be discarded after we return to BASE.

An example of this: Rider is now Kale. I told him I would notify you all of this alteration.

Think wisely about the impact small things could have on a timeline. They add up and any amount of skepticism brought about by our foolishness is too much. Thanks.

Based on every other username I have seen I suspect it is an attempt at humor, but many seem to have a modicum of truth. I am indeed a witch.

Where is the truth in yours?

[dipolar]

There is no truth in mine. It's a chain of many shitty restaurants that sell quick, greasy meals for cheap.

I assume they used the initials of my messier code.

What do witches do? I've only heard of the fake ones.

[courtintrigue]

Not exactly flattering then, is it. What is a messier code?

What witches do depends on the witch. Would you be inclined to believe me if I said I turn people into toads and perform blood rituals every full moon?

A man named Charles Messier gave stars clusters and galaxies numbers to distinguish them. These are applied to Contractors, the sort of thing I am, to classify us. An example of a messier code would be HM-432. Mine is BK-201. So you see where they got it from the initials.

No, not at all. What sort of witch are you, then?
