    Heh. Wow, who'd a thought that that basic OS class I took by mail back in the eighth grade would have led to the capture of an actual, living, breathing demon! That's right, a demon! I almost crapped my pants. Working alongside mystic d00d, we managed to come up with a way to lock the demon down inside an isolated LAN by combining mysticism with my amazing coding skillz. And maybe get some admiration from some cyber witches.

    Maybe I should start at the beginning.

    You see, a couple of days ago, we were clued into these weird guys who look kinda similar and all did stuph at the same time by librarian chix0r (she's an older lady that works in the computer library). She lives in this dorm, and the coeds lived there to. At first, using my keen investigative powers, I noticed that most of the coeds had Irish names and the fact that librarian chix0r managed to get their chatlogs, we knew what they were getting up to. So librarian d00d calls up this friend of his (Miles? Lyle? I dunno, I didn't catch the name). Librarian d00d's friend calls up his friends (real cyber witches! maybe with fishnet hose!), and they think that this might be some cultists trying to call up this demon called Moelock the Corruptor.

    Okay, so I get the idea that if he's trapped in the web and his essence is scattered around and deleted, but these deletions occurred on FAT32 drives, then if they can discover the first letter of his True File Name, they can attempt to recover him. Also, I think that there's something like a product key (like they have in Neverwinter Nights) that keeps two moelocks from being assembled and active at the same time. Kinda a safety switch so that the universe doesn't get overrun with moelocks.

    Since they have to call him from teh net, I work with mystic d00d to come up with a way to lock them into a smaller network on campus. Using his drawing, I locate ten physical computers and create a smaller network with no means of reaching outside, but capable of receiving incoming information. Pretty l33t, huh? Anyway, these feed into a smaller network consisting of only two computers, that likewise can only receive. Using a TSR of my own design, I loaded it onto these b0xen (a link to the TSR will be made available once the usefulness of it in a non-controlled environment is verified), and keyed it to a specific phile, that once executed, would cause them all to isolate simultaneously.

    PRetty k3w1, huh?

    Anyway, while I'm doing this, foreign d00d plays buddy-buddy with the coeds and convinces them he'll work alongside them. I don't know why he did it. The ways of evil are mysterious and boring. I just want to protect the world from evil. And maybe meet some cyber witches. Which reminds me. librarian d00d seems to know some cyber witches and he's got that whole accepting man action going there. Maybe I should be like him. Oh well, I need to tell you how it went down.

    Anyway, these guys, and they're amateurs, they call up this demon (I think they called it a ph33-0r1) that can spray a supersticky snot out like a foamthrower that the police use in Seattle so it can protect them while they finish calling moelock. Well, I know that's a bad scene, so as soon as I get the go code from hunter d00d's phone, I send the code that locks moelock down inside the intranet. Then, I isolate him down to one old 386 I found in the old library, cut the power, and then pulled the hard drive. I think that as long as I don't destroy the drive, no one should be able to summon moelock without having the drive on hand. At least I hope it works that way.

    Oh, and the fight! Well, rich grrl and the crew fought this thing and it only took real hurt from silver bullets, so I guess it's like a werewolf. Good thing hunter d00d always carries some with him. Which means werewolves are actually demons, since their resonant frequencies are so similar. And if they're not, then their energy source may be the same.

    I wasn't there for the fight, but that's what I heard. Now that I've got moelock in this hard drive, I need to build a robot to house my disembodied consciousness should a fate similar to what happened to moelock happen to me. I don't know if I'm brave enough to fire up the box though and try to talk to him.

    Oh, and I've got some wicked majic type action going with the moelock hard drive. I wonder if that would impress the cyber coven?

    Oh, and the hint of the day for fighting evil!

    When faced with vampires, a stake through the heart can be effective. But what if you're not strong enough to hit him hard enough with that stake? Well, never fear! Below is a link to a tranq dart manufacturer. But I bet you're wondering: "what good with tranq darts do me?" Two words: holy water. Two more words: oil of garlic extract. Okay, that last one was four words. But put these in the tranq gun and a vampire's going to have a horrible time while you prepare for the beheading or the staking or just the ol' fashioned burning.
    Happy hunting!
