Alright folks--

We're underway. I'm going to augment our number with alternates if the regulars don't get it together.

Roll you're own dice, just post them here. Everyone earns 1 karma per week, spending it will depend on what's going on at that point and how you want to spend it.

Standard bold is for character names and major NPCs, italics for thoughts and comms. Make sure you use quotes so I can distinguish what you're saying.

Holler if you need something.

Sucks to be Jester right now. ;)

[Shadow]

Hehe dude that chopper rocks. It sucks to be anyone who slings small arms at him.

Correction:Sucks to be the 10-15 guys.

[Ecclesiastes]

What time is it now? How much time do we have before the meet?

And that trace program I noticed, is it tracing me? I'd like to analyze that further if possible.

[Misfit Toy]

Any chance we can slow down just a little bit? I'm really excited to get this going, but it feels a little too rushed. I had to completely redo my post twice because by the time I was ready to post, two more messages moving the situation forward were already up. :(

[BishopMcQ]

Ecc--The trace program looks like it was sent out to find you, not to trace your location back into the meat world. The Smartframe was probably scouring the Seattle grids looking for a trace of you and found you in the Arc system. Also unless you are going to get involved with one of the others, presume it is about 10 AM. That gives you 12 hours or so till the meet.

Shadow/Misfit--Sorry about my stepping in, I thought Dade was a contact--my mind fried and didn't make the connection between Dade and Daedalus.

Misfit--I will try to drop the pace down a notch to give people a chance to keep up.

[Ecclesiastes]

I didn't think it was moving that quickly, but if you need it, I'm sure we can accomidate for your slugishness.

[Misfit Toy]

No problem, man. It happens. :) And thanks for slowing it down a bit.

As for you, Eccy: Bite me. :D

[BishopMcQ]

Now, now...don't make me get the hose...play nice.

[Shadow]

Sorry McQ, I should have been more clear in my post.

[Ecclesiastes]

Ok, since I have the time, I'm going to do an Info Search and Info Sortilage on Mr. Falcone.

Info Search
Standard Search - Base TN is 5 - Base time is 2D6 = rolled 6
Search Mods:
Knowledge Skill of 6+ = -2
Keep Low Profile = +2
Matrix Init of +4D6 = -1
Browse Util (Channel) of 6+ = -1
Matrix Etiquette of 5+ = -1
Final Target Number = 2

Computer roll: 11 08 05 04 04 04 02 01
Info Sortilage (Complimentary): 07 05 04 04 03 02
Data Archive Familiarity (Complimentary): 05 04 04 01 01 01
Data Havens (Complimentary): 09 09 05 04 03 03
Hacking Pool: 17 05 05 05 04 04 03 02 02 01

Thats easily 5 successes on the search, plus several more to be used to reduce the time.

Info Sortilage

Base Time is 1D6 / 2 hours: rolled 4 = 2 hours
Info Sortilage: 11 08 04 03 02 01

I think thats all the rolls you need. If you need more let me know.

[Ecclesiastes]

LOL

I love your last IC post Shadow, good stuff! :rotfl:

[Shadow]

Thanks :) His callsign is Jester for a reason.

[Ecclesiastes]

I'm using Switch to lower my Evasion to 4, up my Masking to 14 (making my Detection Factor 12), and my Sensor to 10.

I'll roll Sensor to see if I spot anything fishy going on around me while I download the files.

Sensors: 14 10 05 05 04 03 02 02 01 01

[Misfit Toy]

Astral Perception Test (Lucretia; Astral Pool 3, Aid Power 2): 3 5 2 8 5 8 2 4 4 1 5; 7 successes
Astral Perception Test (Ash, same): 5 4 2 9 7 1 1 1 2 5 1; 5 successes

Perception Test (to see if anything unusual is going on): 2 5 4 3 3 2

And if either of them need a little healing, just let me know and I'll roll those up as well.

[BishopMcQ]

misfit--And the astral rape begins. Both are mundane, Lucretia has an essence of 4.62 with implants primarily in her head--senseware most likely. She is stressed out because she was just double crossed by a weapons dealer. She has no illnesses or addictions and has suffered superficial damage to her ribcage and torso. Ash has an essence of 5.2, also senseware. He is tired and anxious, due to the recent running from gangers and plans to boost a car with Lucretia later tonight. He has a light wound in his shoulder with moderate bruising across his chest.

Ecc--The matrix almost appears to be coming unraveled one file at a time, but the unraveling is very specific.

[Ecclesiastes]

Is there anything I can do to slow it down so I can grab as much info as possible?

[Misfit Toy]

All right, here's the healing rolls for Ash...

Spellcasting: Heal (Force 6, Power Focus 5, no Spell Pool) (TN 5): 10 9 7 4 8 1 5 2 5 1 2 5 4; 7 successes (fully healed)
Drain Resistance Test (3L): 11 1 2 4 3; 1 successes (Light drain eliminated by Trauma Damper)

And a little Healthy Glow to make Lucretia feel better a few seconds later after the Heal was made permanent (in, like, 2 Combat Turns with that many extra successes)

Spellcasting: Healthy Glow (Force 2, Power Focus 5, no Spell Pool) (TN 4): 1 4 4 2 2 3 4 5 2 1 4 5 8; 7 successes (all fresh and sparkly)
Drain Resistance Test (2): 1 1 23 1 4; 2 successes (no drain)

[BishopMcQ]

Ecc--Give me a reaction test.

[Ecclesiastes]

Matrix Reaction: 11 10 09 08 07 04 03 03 02

[Shadow]

Jester is going to park the chopper back at the airfield, and then do a few hours of maintenance on it.

after that I will just wait for the meeting.

[BishopMcQ]

Ecc-- 6 successes, nice job. Let me know when you're ready to browse through your downloads.

Shadow--Sounds good.

Looks like Fenris and Ecclesiastes have a few things to wrap up and then we'll bump to the meeting. IF anyone has further interests or things they need to do let me know.

[Ecclesiastes]

I left me post nice and vague so you can fill in the details of what she finds.

[BishopMcQ]

Ecc--You also have fragmented research papers and theses that Zeidel co-authored as well as images from the autopsy and a partial diagnostic of his deck. It looks to be perfectly operational.

All--I"m going to be bumping along to the meet when I get home from work circa midnight PST. Post if you need more time or I missed something in the details.
