OOC: Down in the Barrens II, Saytr's Folley Options

[Redjack]

Umbra can definitely smell that Val has been in the room before. Make a perception test for smell. I will look up a penalty for time and assess that from the right end of the dice.

[Seth]

Read them and weep. 9 successes (I don't think I have ever rolled that well before!

[Redjack]

For crying out loud... Even serious penalties against a roll of [2,2,2,5,6,4,6,1,2,4,6,3,2,4,6,5,5,1,6,5] would still keep 4+ successes. Ok, blood hound, give me a memory test: Log(1) + Wil(3) Ugghh.. I think I know where your Karma should be going. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

[Seth]

Given a hint like that...there goes 1 edge.

Luck is with me: 4 success

[Redjack]

Didn't mean it as a hint, but you did confirmation to several pieces to the puzzle. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

[Seth]

Sorry to be dense:

Arkansas...hes a dwarven shaman magician that I know and can recommend to Val? or his smell was in the room?

[Redjack]

You know and can recommend. He is one of your contacts. His smell is not in the room.

[Seth]

TY I was being dense

[Redjack]

Leaving for Gen Con tomorrow. May be a week before you hear from me.

[Saytr]

awesome have a blast RJ.

[Redjack]

Ok. I just need a post about how you two will get to Ugly Bob's. Its about 15min by motorcycle from where you are, so you have a little time to kill as well..

[Seth]

@Satyr
Can you post the IC suggestion that you give Umbra a lift on the motorbike. Umbra normally walks (or sneaks) to places, and it wouldn't occur to him to ask for a lift

[Saytr]

FYI i will just moved into new apartment will be without internet for a little while until hooked up.

[Seth]

Hope it all goes well.

@Redjack
Up to you how this proceeds. Why don't I go and see the good Sergeant? or we could put this on pause until Satyr returns. Whichever is better for you

[Saytr]

i am back in business sorry to hold up the game.

[Seth]

Welcome back!

[Saytr]

thanks yeah i gotta have my Dumpshock.

[Redjack]

The duo are currently left of POI #150 on my Redmond Map. There are dirt roads out to the Plastic Jungle that the trash trucks use.

[Seth]

Nice maps. Is it OK if I use them elsewhere?

What do I know about Plastic Jungle? 3 successes on intuition + Regional(Seattle)

[Redjack]

All - I can F/F if you all are ready? To the Jungles then?

Nice maps. Is it OK if I use them elsewhere?

Sure. Two notes on the Redmond map.
1) The text and map in 2072 disagree about the crash site. I corrected the map location to match the text.
2) The location of the Verge did not make sense to me. Based upon topography, I moved it to a location that seemed to make more sense.

What do I know about Plastic Jungle? 3 successes on intuition + Regional(Seattle)

The Plastic Jungles are quite a sight, even by Seattle standards. Acres of dirty grayish and tattered canopies of bioplastic stretched high overhead from support struts create a near-tropical world underneath, warm and filled with greenery, the rainwater and (to a degree) the air filtered by the bioplastic netting and the plant-life. There are small trees and bushes, creeping and climbing vines, and exotic flowers in every color of the rainbow, filling the air with a heady scent. Under the foliage are tents and shelters built out of discarded bioplastic sheeting, scrap wood and plastic, thatching and materials harvested from the jungles. It is a strange indoor-outdoor rainforest on the outskirts of one of the largest cities in the world.
--
The abandoned agri-domes have become home for much of Redmond’s metahuman population, the various plants and flowers allowed to grow wild.
The metahuman squatters in the Plastic Jungles are understand-ably mistrustful of outsiders, especially humans. They are organized into neo-primitive tribes, living off the land. Ironically, decades of land-reclamation here have worked and managed to clean up the area enough to grow food again. This makes the Jungles targets for Barrens gangs and scavengers looking to steal harvests and food supplies.

[Redjack]

All - I can F/F if you all are ready? To the Jungles then?

Satyr?

[Saytr]

Yeah sorry, iam good.

[Redjack]

I love throwing in those, "What the hell am I doing?" little descriptions.

[Seth]

Hey I loved that description of me. I laughed. My wife laughed. Fun game

I don't really know how to post IC at the moment. If you want I can do "go left, go right kind of instructions". Or I could kick off "aha he's here" type of noises. Naval gazing posts are good too if you'd like one of those.

[Saytr]

Yeah im in training the next four weeks, got a job with att recently and wow a lot to absorb. I will post ic wed or thurs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
