Yeah, I'll take that thanks. When our GM says I can, I will turn the thing on and hack my way into it.

Feel free to post up whatever you want to do to Acson's commlink.

Well. I was just going to roll with it as if you had already established a warehouse in dome section of the old correctional facility. You spending that much time there you should be in good enough with the go-gangers to manage something for the time being.

If you don't like that idea ill post something up soon. One of Mr. White's contacts was going to be getting back in touch with him soon anyway. I was just going to wait for that once you guys had resupplied as best you could.

TundraWolf, what kind of gear would you be looking to pick up at your place anyway? If it's just more ammo id be willing to roll with a contact bringing you some ammo for a little extra cost considering the urgency.

No, that works. I just kept hearing that we were all heading to my safe house when we were already riding in it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

And I'll post up on the commlink tomorrow morning. I'm thinking about what I really want to do to it besides turn it on.

Well, the first thing I guess I need to do to the commlink is turn it on. Then I want to hack its node, granting myself admin access. I'd ask Acson for his access code, but why would I make it easy?

19d6.hits(5) = 7 hits
18d6.hits(5) = 4 hits
17d6.hits(5) = 8 hits

That should be enough to grant me admin access.

I'm running Analyze, Stealth, Exploit currently.

You had admin access with the second roll. What's next?

Update: Arrival at the clown warehouse was around 20:45. Healing took 5-10 minutes.
Then Silas and Eclipser were heading over to StufferShack for another 5-10 minutes. Meanwhile, Needle is hacking into Parker Acson's commlink (she currently has admin access and needs to post whatever she wants to do with it).

What's everybody else doing? How long are you guys planning to stick around here before heading out to the Barrens? Anybody doing or saying anything to Acson while all this is going on(we've established that he's hiding something and it's been noticed that he has a worn leather bag with him that doesn't look like something you'd bring to an executive banquet)?

I will message Mr. White silently over the comm to comment that "Maybe we should ask Acson if he knows the one who has taken an interest in him. Even going along with your story, we had to be hired by someone to 'extract him before Horizon harmed him'. Maybe he can shed some light on this Scion character while we wait."

I will also Assense him, just to make sure that I cover all our bases... I get 2 hits.

When he has a chance, Gardner will take a brief moment to summon up another Plant Spirit (Force 6) to have on standby in case something goes wrong, he'll also quickly comfort the Earth Spirit that was severely frightened by the Air Elemental before he lets that one return to Standby as well.

Summoning: 6 hits. It resists with 6 dice.

White is still chatting with Acson. Trying to draw out information, without tipping his own hand.

Acson knows that they were hired by the Scion already. "So, we're all wondering why the Scion is so interested in your well being. Any ideas?"

Dammit. Did Invisible Castle go down again? Bleh.

Anyway, with only 2 hits on Assensing you can't tell much that you don't already know. He's an awakened human. He seems to be pretty calm and unharmed considering what you guys put him through, there may be a hint of smugness about his emotional state. Though he's obviously controlling his emotions pretty tightly. And you don't notice any cyberware or other implants in him.

For the spirit, it looks like you are in luck. It Critically Glitched its resistance roll. If you want to, it is currently extremely susceptable to binding and you can make an attempt to bind it without the required ritual. You would still make the opposed Binding + Magic vs ForceX2 though.

He pretends to be completely confused when you mention the Scion, claiming he's never hear of him before, but he doesn't do a very believable job of it. He blusters about how this Scion must have heard of his exceptional work at MIT&T.

"Now, Mr. Acson, clearly that isn't the case. Lying to us makes me worry that we can't trust you, and if we can't trust you, then I'd have to ask one of my colleagues to ziptie your wrists and ankles, and we don't want that, do we?"

"Hey now. I came with you at the drop of a hat with a pretty flimsy claim on your part. I haven't tried to get away or give you any trouble. I've never seen any Pharoah, Scion or otherwise." He's getting scared now, and it's not helping his lies at all. But he's sticking to his guns that he has never heard of the Scion. "Why don't you tell me why he hired you to get me out of there? You've obviously been lying to me this whole time. I'm the one that should be upset. Not you."

"I've been straight with you. We were hired to get you out of there. Our employer doesn't share his reasoning with us. For all we know, he wants you to mop the floors in his house. If you know something here that we don't, it might be beneficial for you to come clean."

"You told me you were saving from the people at Horizon doing nasty things to me? Are you still trying to claim that was true?" He outright laughs at that claim now. "You actually think they would have spent so much time and money recruiting me to turn around and something "nasty" too me before I even start really working for them?"

"If you really want to know what the reptilian Scion wants with me, then ask him when he calls you."

"As far as I'm aware Horizon was planning on having you killed. Why else would the Scion want you out of there?"

Intimidation roll. (related to the threat to have him tied up perhaps)

8D6E5 => 2

"Do you know how many different companies tried to recruit me? I got approached by representatives of not just one but TWO of fucking great dragons! Everybody wants me. I'd assume this Scion is just working for one of them or the Atlantean Foundation or the Draco Foundation, or any of the other megacorps. I am the shiznit!" In this at least you can be fairly certain he's telling the truth about various parties that would be getting his life long service.

Gardner gives the man a flat, no-nonsense look, "We never mentioned anything about what the Scion looks like. If you've never heard of him, how could you possibly know that he is reptilian or a pharoah?"

He also got 2 hits on his roll thanks to not think you would do anything stupid.

Lol. I wonder if we'll get a bonus to another intimidate roll if we tie his ass up.

"Wait. What? Um....I heard that guy talking about it on the way over here." He randomly points over at Eclipse. And no Eclipse hadn't said word one about the Scion on the drive over here. Acson is looking a bit squirrelly now and hugging his worn leather bag.

"Who brought zip ties? Long ones?"

The sooner we are away from here the better for Silas, I dont want to draw any undue attention to this place Or to ourselves.

"Can we packs up peoples, i tinks it time wuz on da move again to be da safes side!"

Especially if we are leaving needles home here for safety. We dont need to head to the barrens we can just drive round for a while, being very inconspicuous..... Ok... No, even i can't keep a straight face at that one.
