Well Sab's route takes you well clear of the most inhabited bits - that's bound to help (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ork.gif)

About now I don't know that I am pleased to be an expert on magical threats (4 successes)
My current guess is Shedim, or maybe more virulent Insect Spirits. Sadly I think I will have to get a bit closer, but maybe now is the time to take precautions. If they look like spirits I will have done a spirit zapper spell, if they look weird I will cast mana barrier... Mana barrier level 7 sucesses Drain: 2 successes vs code 4http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3124910/ Ah well that's why some nice person invented Platelet factories [ Spoiler ]

Shedim... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ork.gif)
Hmmmm....BRAINS...!!! Seth, shouldn't that damage be physical for overcasting? I've probably missed something there?!? |

I'm thinking Shedim. I imagine Insect Spirits actually smell really weird and would be pretty noticeable.

@Aria
No. I just forgot. I'll change it. @Politeman Yeah I'm thinking Shedim too. Nasty. But then they are all nasty...hence the nukes |

Map updated with the bus wreck - it's not far outside Stillwater...I think you can divert north but it will mean some off road for a bit (no trouble for the convoy)
Visual perception: the woman looks dead! IC coming up later! |

Hmm, smells dead, looks dead, astral is messed up,
Anybody got an Shedim fighting tips? Not sure what's up, can't see the bus on the map. Maybe I just can't find it. |

Just reminding you Aria about the question on what the threat was (4 successes on magical threats)
As I have the skill magical threats at 6 I ought to be able to come up with fighting tips... |

Well you're pretty sure they are Shedim - spirits that possess corpses. You are an expert on possession - what would defeat you? With that roll feel free to look up their powers in SM and determine a course of action (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I can't remember what book shedim first turned up in...YotC? If anyone can remind us then that would be a good place to look too |

Thanks for that Aria.
Ok I will leave a watcher possessing my body if you are happy with that (Optional rule: Corps cadavres and Living dolls p 95 Street Magic) otherwise I will have to send Legundo back to guard my body. Can I get a little closer to the Shedim to see what is going on? If Sgt Sticks wants a report, I had better give him one! |

There are three shedim coming out of the fire that don’t seem to be much affected (other than being pissed off!). One is chasing the hotspur and the other two are headed towards the convoy. You should be able to outdistance them if you want to save on ammo?!?
I won’t count this little air strike as an Event as its story driven at the moment...don’t worry I’ll let you know when they will start to count (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ork.gif) |

I'm presuming there's no way the Shedim chasing us can actually catch us, so Joey and Feral are watching out to make sure our rocket display didn't attract any attention. Let me know if I should make a perception roll or if the Shedim starts doing something weird besides pointlessly chasing us.
Hey, is nicktheviking still in? |

SlaughterSpiritTM Force 7, for 4, 3 and 4 successes (I forgot that I was maintaining a spell, so I have to knock 2 off the end) I'm hoping that they don't counterspell, but there you go.
My drain: damage 5 for each. Well that was lucky 7, 3, and 5, with the good old platelet factories, that's only 1 more physical damage. Hardly worth worrying about! Status [ Spoiler ]

Hi! I'm back off my holidays. This thread seems to have moved on quite quickly. Could you give me a quick run-down on what I need to do now, both Character wise and IC?
Cheers |

Don't worry, not all that much has happened IC...just flick through the thread and come up with some waffle about why you're a bit late (discussing tactics with Sandman perhaps?) and take over from Sticks...or put him in charge if you like (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ork.gif) OoC have a read through the character gen thing in the first post and decide if you want to tweak your character a bit. Don't forget you have all the karma and cash rewards from Emerging Conflict to play with too! |

I thought those were the ones Gash just zapped.
Sounds like they called for friends though. |
