Love the stick figures...lol.

Artistic talent at work, I just use dots and circles personaly.

Hello?

We were talking about Dashifen's map of the rose. There's rather amusing stick figures that are supposed to represent Troll bouncers. I just thought that was funny...big ass Trolls as tiny stick people heehee.

Yeah, the IC thread just kinda died. Has anyone heard from Elfie? He hasn't posted IC in a while.

He's got tests and presentations this week. He plans on coming back but he's busy this week. Do we want to take a break and wait for him?

Thats fine by me, I just like to know whats going on, that way I don't think the game died or something.

It can't die! I just got here

Nah -- we're not going to die yet. We might be slow for the weekend though, I have an assignment due Tuesday that I have to finish up and a busy schedule for the next few days. But, if we're still at snail's pace by about Tuesday, I'll just get everything going again.

Okay what are we waiting on guys? I know that Elfies bogged down in work so I would say he's on autopilot for now, but is there a reason that this hasn't moved forward. Are you all waiting on me to do something?

Oh, I thought we agreed to wait for Elfie. I guess we can just keep going without him though. I'll make a post when I get back, I'm off to the DMV now.

Soluna, could you give us a description of your character?

You'll find a blurb about our characters on the second page of this thread (at least its the second page for me). I'll repost Akuma's here for you just to make it easy:

Akuma

Not much is known of The Demon or where he came from. He appeared on the east coast scene about a year ago taking on just about any type of work that fit his skill set, though most it was wetwork. Physically, he is fairly unimpressive and bland, most people wouldn't know him if they saw him. He is japanese, about 5'10", and has an athletic build. Those who do know him, know not to cross him, for he always repays any wrong done to him.

He has the fastest reflexes around, is deadly in a firefight with both pistols and rifles, and can still hold his own in melee with the use of Kung Fu and his katana. He is a master at Stealth and handy with electronics.

Ok, I guess at this point I'll wait for Elfie to get back to the game while the two ladies run off and have fun.

Hehe, sorry man.. It could be worse.

He's been spending about 20 hours a day playing FF11 and the other 4 are classes I'll kick him in the ass -- he owes me for this month's bills, too

I'm here I'm here, and it's only been more like 3-4 hours a day. I have your utilities check also! And hey, I did have a lot of work to do

I'm sorry I disappeared, it wont happen again.

I know Whee --- gang's all here Soluna -- does Gwyn have a car? right now I think you have only one car between the four of you ...

I have a bike with two seats if need be.

Sweet -- n/m we can work with that. For the purposes of making an IC post about the two locations for the two groups, Gwyn and Rowan use the bike and Akuma and Lex can use the car that they got from the Mafia

Image of the Motel since it's a bit more complicated than the club.

I have a tricked out bike as well, remember? I was thinking of using that, considering the place we're going to.

Nevermind, we'll go with the car, seeing as how you already used it in the IC

Gwyn is a human private eye. She's lived in the area all her life. She became a private eye after being fired from her job at a cops-for-hire organization. She discovered she was awakened when she began to know when people were lying or not. She sought training from a shaman, discovered that her totem was the gargoyle (now she knew why she liked star gazing on the roof) and the rest as they say is history

Is that enough or did you need more?

Soluna, Gywn and Rowan took Rowans Motorcycle, not a car... YOu might want to edit the IC post to fix that.

Akuma and I have the car.

For note, I'm trying to bring in the pistol, in a concealed holster, of course. Anything else big i'm leaving in the car. Don't plan on causing any trouble this time through

What is Akuma briging, and is Lex wearing a long coat or not?

Actually -- give me a basic gear list for everyone -- armor and weapons are what I really care about just to know what you're carrying, but if you're planning something and it requires some special gear, let me know.

Akuma is carrying his Predator 2s. The current conceal on them is 10. +2 from concealable holster and +4 for his long coat.

For armor he is wearing his form fitting, secure clothing, and secure long coat.

Rowans waering her Actioneer suit (Jacket Version 4/2), and is carrying her gaurdian in a conceled holser, its loaded with gel rounds..

The only other gear she has on is her pocket sec, a micro recorder, and her cougar finebladed short knife.. muahahahahaha... Basically what she wears around most places (with the exception of the armor, she doesnt always wear armor).

Lex has his browning (conc: 6 +2 from the QD holster = 8 ).
Form fitting lv3 and a secure ultra vest = 6/3 armor. no sec long coat.
didn't bring the alpha or the deck.

FFBA lvl 3 covers.. everything.. its decribed as having a hood and gloves and boots... scary huh?

Yeah, but I always assumed the hood , gloves, and boots were removable.

Gwyn has her form fitting shirt and secure long coat on and she's packing her salevette gaurdian in it's quick draw concealable holster loaded with regular rounds. Then of course she has her magic

Sorry about the car/bike mix-up

I'll get a layout for the area of the club that you can see up tomorrow. It's late and I'm tired so I'll just do it in the morning

Just so I'm sure that I'm reading that right... Its a gay bar?

you're reading it right This is gonna be fun to roleplay

*groans*

It's not all gay --- there were some women going in Here's the layout.

The room that you know has to be there is because the length of the building on the outside and the placement of the door, etc.

_____________________

Also, Soluna, when you want to cast a spell, you can do the rolls yourself, especially since I don't know how you want to use your spell pool. So, you can just tell me what you're going to do on the IC thread, then on the OOC thread (this one) post the rolls. This counts for just about anything that you want to do. If you don't know the target number, then just make the roll and post it, and I'll fill in the target number later.

Okiday here's the roll:

21 11 05 04 04 04 03 03 02 01 01

I got four successes on the drain roll, too.

Elfie, Grey -- are you waiting on something from me?

I'm taking over again to get us on the move.

Rowan's Perception test: 5, 5, 4, 2, 1, 1
Gwyn's Perception test: 15, 5, 5, 2, 1

Grey/Elfie, are you waiting for Soluna and PFogg to finish up their fun before doing the bar?

No, I'm just a big dork and got wrapped up in the action some of my other games have going on. (I was in three different combats). Sorry bout that man.

Perception: 10 05 04 03 02 01

Must resist the urge to start Food Fight ....... Pausing to allow Soluna to describe Gwyn's astral form and tell me what she's going to do once she gets back to the motel area.

Aww, don't start food fight without me, I still have never been in it
Anyway, I'm pretty much holding back until Rowan and Gwynn have had their go.

Perception: 08 07 05 04 02 02 01 01

Astrally I want to look through the office and any rooms in the office, as well as all the hotel rooms. I'll be looking for auras that seem frightened, confused and anxious. Depending on whether or not I find any, I might materialize and see if the people in the room match the picture of the wife and daughter.

This male strip club thing is timing perfectly with the gay/lesbian runner thread on the main forums

I'd like to astrally perceive the car and then if there are no awakened people in it, here's my roll for summoning a force 2 city spirit.

Summoning: 05 04 03 03 03 (5 services)
Drain: 10 05 04 03 01 (no drain... )

When the spirit appears I tell it to follow the black sedan and come back and tell me where it stops.

If there are no awakened people in the car I want to astrally project and see if a woman and child are in the car at all.

Interesting. I'll check out the office, too, while I'm at it.

Ok here's the clairsentience roll: 07 05 03 02 02 02 02 01 01 (one success)
Drain: 05 05 05 04 02 02 02 01 01 (no drain)

Dash: Gwyn has the perceptive edge, so that's a -1 for my perception test as I'm looking for things right?
