Felix has two watchers patrolling the astral space of the Y for intruders. Starting from 21:00:00, one will last until 23:00:00, the other until 01:00:00.
He also has a fire elemental, force 4, on call.

Well if unimportant, I´d say, just make something up. In your special case, however, you should consult TG (better repost the request here with a GM flag, so he don´t has to sift through the IC, befor he can answer.

@ Silo, Rokur and VegasSo, do we have a game?
We should allso decide, where/how we get the dust (reminds me of GTA radio
). Will we still go to Rahim first (good oportunety, to ask him, whats up on the sreet, too, hes well informed IIRC). If he don´t has what we are looking for, where to head next, has anyone conections?
TF will propose to Halo, to ask her brother Ciro, where a good party is running, if we still want to con. Otherwise, we could head down to the crime mall to meet a dealer.
But first, do we have a game?
We are so fast and efficient with this Nova run, we could be a Red Samurai SWAT Team
EDIT: If Aziz is at the Zo e, too, TF would allso play against him.
EDIT 2:
I have requested some time ago, to put up a new page at the wiki. Akin to the "memorable moments" of the old wiki. Though I would include an "IC Quote of the Week" section. I know, there isn´t something reall funny up every week, but I think even the semi-cool quotes, that where best in thair week, would give a nice flavour thing, to scroll through. Thoughts?
BTW I edited TF´s birthday, most/all in the gang will now think, he was born Jan. 26th 2053. So, he´s already 17 by this date (though Auran may know more, nobody knows his real b.o.d.). He will look a bit young for 17, but he´s an elf after all, so it´s not really conspicious, playing well to the clishé.

Ideally, all NPCs should have some motivations, personality, etc, written for them in the Wiki. Once that is done, you can write for NPCs freely within reason. If you need something resolved, like with Treeno there, just pause and I'll get to it ASAP. Stating what you want to know OOCly might help, as well.
Posts made today can go up to 8 am the next day. Posts made tomorrow can go up to 1 pm that day. I'm giving a little bit of stagger to it so there isn't a huge amount of backposting.

@GM
Felix has his Fire Elemental (see wiki sheet for stats and such) patrol the astral space of the Y. If he finds any intruders, he is to inform Felix of their location, and engage them in combat. Of course, all the 410 crash members don't count as intruders. The Fire Elemental will disappear at sunrise.
Felix is also going to ward the main "gathering / lounge" area. Since I have no idea how large it is (but probably under Felix max warding capacities), I'll just do that one for now. The rules also aren't totaly clear concerning one thing: is it Magic X 50 cubic meters of TOTAL ward (as in all the wards maintained by the mage, when put together, cannot exceed that amoount) or is it EACH ward cannot exceed Magic X 50.
Personally, I think that the total thing is more logical.
Anyways, here are my rolls .
CODE |
Creating a ward, Force 3 Rolls: [6] [6] 2 [6] 2 4 4 1 1 4 Hits: 3
The ward will last for 21 days, starting on April 13th, and will take Felix 3 hours to set up.

@ VoorheesJust figured, I don´t want to loos 100

.
I´ll roll a die, as soon as you posted Aziz´s call. Even will be Heads, Odd will be Tails. We can than also just roll our A+L(-Damage
), but I think it is more colourfull, to find out who goes first.
So, to speed things up, make your call&roll, then I´ll make the 1 die roll and TF´s pool dice pool roll, then we can switch into narative mode again
.
EDIT:
BTW, to Aziz, TF looks nervous, when he´s happy?
EDIT 2:
For simpisity´s sake, I´ll just use the first die of TF´s pool roll for the coin´s result.
BTW, well, maybe TF allways looks nervous to Aziz. "Probably is afraid of me."

Well, anyways, Felix will be busy warding for about three hours. My guess is he's going to be rather tired after that (he'll be at something like 6S on 11S).
MK Ultra
Apr 11 2006, 01:15 AM
I´m starting to feel tired, so, here´s my roll for the game of pool
CODE |
Agility (6) + Logic (5) + Damage (-2) = 9 dice [5] 4 4 2 2 [5] 1 [5] [5] Hits:4 |
So, the dime shows Tails and TF is putting up quiet a good performance, despite his damage. IIRC Aziz will win, if he keeps his former performance, but we´ll see.
If TF wins, he will say
TF: "You can keep the title, but I´ll take the money!" He says, grabing the cash with a smile.
If he looses, he´ll say
TF: "Well done for a rooky. Looks like JJ´s right!" He smiles as he indirectly accusates Aziz of cheating.
He is then ready to go. But where do we go? Pharmacy?

If Rahim has what we need, there would be no need to go further with it. Don't know what the best option is after that though.
MK Ultra
Apr 11 2006, 02:29 AM
Mechanics would be Negotiate+Char (2/12h) extended, to find some on your own, we could use teamwork (Auran should lead).
Buying from Rahim (or any contact) would cost an extra (C x 5)% though there would be a Haggling bonus for Loyalty if hes a real contact (and Home ground, but not 1st Impression).
Don´t know if the time of extended tests can be reduced in any way, or if base time is the minimum.
If TF is needed for Teamwork, here are 2 rolls (finding and haggling). He will take a line befor. If 1st Impress &/or Home Ground don´t apply, disregard the last 2 or 4 results.
CODE |
Charisma (4) + Influence (3) + Damage (-1) + Home Ground (2) + First Impression (2) = 10 dice 1 3 [6] [5] 3 [6] [6] 1 [6] 3 Hits:5 |

Pharmacy/BaBa is in the mall with The Zo e so it's an easy walk there from what was posted on the old Wiki I'd assume.
Meh, trying to figure out how to stay involved or stay behind. She'd probably go with only because JJ can't negotiate out of a paper bag

I was figuring he looked nervous because he was walking into a public place with a Halo who looks like she just got done making the beast with two backs.
And... I'm not really sure what you mean for die rolling coin flipping, so I'll say heads and let you proceed.

Charisma (6) + Ettiquette (2) = 8 dice 3,[5],1,[5],[6],2,4,2 = 3 hits |

Vegas
Apr 11 2006, 04:06 AM
Yes we're on home ground if we're in the back of the BaBa.
In case Halo's skills are needed (not sure how they'd work in a teamwork test per se. (BTW: All Halo's Thresholds are +1 for the next 2 hours)

QUOTE |
Hits: 6 Looks like Aziz defends his title and made 20 bucks. You want to describe the game, or shall I? |
With Auran (astral perception through deep weed) gone, TF is pushed hard, to use magic fingers and cheat (which means it would be better, if I describe the game (you can add to it later). How would we handle this?
Making him win blatantly would seem excessive, he wants to make it subtile after all. What about another Agility+Logic test (using the spells Agility and applying the -2 of the spell (normally for using skills, but I think it apply´s here) and -2 for sustaining it), than adding the successes to those of the earlyer test.
Hm what where the rules for noticing magic again? TF wouldn´t do, if there is a real possibility of Aziz noticing. But since he will cast the spell, while behind Aziz´s back, I think there is no way for him to notice, is there?
Obviously, he can have a clue, when he begins to have less "luck" of finetuning. Maybe do a Perception against TF´s hits from the Spells A+L. If he succeeds, he´s got some suspicion. But there is probably no way for him, to be sure, unless TF glitches. Then again Aziz would probably think TF is cheating anyway, if he looses.
EDIT: I just noticed, that this doesn´t work. TF will have an Agility of 1 or 2 for the spell, Logic is 5, Damage -2, Remote mod -2, Sustaining -2, so it would be 1 bonus de at most. Seems funny to me, that he can´t manipulate the game subtily, because with the decent pool roll he has himself, it´s probably an easy task. However, I don´t want to impose anything on you, so I´ll just drop it. At least, this dampens TF´s reputatin in the Zo e of beeing a pool shark, so he will have an easyer time making reall money of it in the next days

@ Rokur & Vegasyou should use at least Homeground, Loyalty (1) and Street Cred (-Notoriety) modifire!!
Same goes for
Halo, though she would allso suffer -1 die for being intoxicated. The support hits from her (-1 for Bliss) give that number of additionall dice to roll for
Auran.
The situational and other inter-personal modifires should be handled by TG
- don´t know if Rahim is attracted to them +2 (don´t think so, but who knows),
- he´s probably got a friendly disposition +2
- It´s probably advantagious to him, to sell a large stack of drugs +1, at the very least even +0
- Don´t know, if he´s got a street rep, but i think default would be no.
- The fact, that he´s operating in our turf probably gives us a heavy bargaining chip +2
So, if it was my call, I´d say +7 +Homeground +Street Cred.
Rahim will roll against it with Char+Negotiation probably 8 (Conection+6) would still be resonable for an orkish drug dealer.
It´s up to TG how much the price is cut down for each net hit, but the default would be 5% IIRC.
BTW the shirt thing was really funny

If you would allow any of these modifers, pls ask for a re-roll or maybe chage around Rahim's roll (I just rolled unmodified Cha+skill above)
