It's the same number that I've been rolling for social tests with first impression. When I get home tonight I'll pull up my char sheet.

Edit: Pulled my sheet from our e-mail. 6 Charisma, 2 Negotiations, 2 First Impression, 1 Tailored Pheromones.

Cool. That's what I needed

Does that mean Jake is heading for the door?

Unless Carter wants to add something-yes.

Ok Bishop the scene is yours. We can continue at the current pace or we can fast post, either way you want.

I'll open a channel so we can all see what Carter is doing.

Redjack--I'd say let's move it quickly so that things don't bog down with the thread waiting on me.

Team--We've identified how quickly they respond, what I'd like to know is as follows:
Weapon and Armor level
What the tipping point is for aggression
Security level on the other floors

With the rigger gone from the building, can Jake figure out how much of a matrix presence the security system has? Hardlined systems are harder to hack, but they have different weaknesses. Identify cameras, sensors, guard counts if possible through radio communication or biomonitors.

Are there things within your characters' skillsets that other players can tackle, or pieces of information that you'd like to know?

RedJack--A few questions:
Are the guards speaking English, Russian or something else?
Is there a seat at the bar where I can be close enough to hear what they are saying?

@Bishop
The guards appear to be speaking a mixture of both English and Russian. Moving to the far end of the bar, you are unable to make out their conversation.

Redjack--Carter speaks Russian, can he tell if they are speaking figuratively or literally? Are they looking for someone they plan on killing or a colling corpse?

Errr.. yea.... that's what I meant....
You get the impression he's talking about someone he wants made dead.

I am totally lost in the IC conversation.....

Per your last post, the whores went for Jake. Carter sighed in relief and took their latching on to Jake pleasantly and left. Jake was unsure what to do so Carter suggested that Jake push for Edge play--also known as breath play. Basically Jake would take the two girls upstairs and have one choke the other, with her hands or other implement. If the girls aren't into edge play, it gives him a viable out, if they are, he can push one girl too far--have her strangle the other and in the panic hopefully slip away.

:eek: :eek: :eek:

Ok, my bad. I meant to post Carter, not Jake. Jake had left the bar... Sorry, I appear to be the source of the confusion...

Wow.. I seem to have made a mess of that. Ok, how about I delete the posts back to mine and correct mine?

Works for me. Kvasac?

(And I'm in the part of San Diego that isn't burning yet...So far I'm safe.)

Corrected my post. Delete posts after that. Sorry again.

(Well stay safe! Seems 1/2 of California burns up every year..)

FBM. I still intend to leav fly with Carter.

Yea. Fly is on the ceiling. Check.

hey folks--

Sorry for dropping off the radar. I'm safe, family and friends are all still alive. We lost a couple houses, but making our way through. I will try to get a post up today.

Glad to hear you all made it through safe. Think it may be time for just a few more burnings... this time at the stake for a few arsonists.

Bishop - You get side tracked by the fires after all?

I haven't seen Bishop online in sometime... that is kinda worry some since he said he lived near the fires.

While we wait for Bishop I have terrible need to notice that a lot of games here begin with Down or Up.

RJ I have 0 access to my computer at the moment (among other 5h1t), what do I roll? If I recall correctly I don't have shadowing skill but I might be wrong...

In case I am right about the dice I need to roll: 2 hits

Dragan

@Kvasac
Damn fine roll for two dice. You actually have shadowing at rank 3, so your dice pool is: Intuition(3) + Shadowing(3). The pluses for having a drone on the vehicle transmitting are negated by the low traffic given the hour leaving you a full DP of 6.

In that case: 3 hits

@Trigger:
Been a LONG time since you've posted. Please check in or we'll send Tigger out for more smack..

@blackhawk1w
Ok - You're on deck!!

@All
I would consider Storm pretty much out of the game. Whisper will move to NPC role and finish the ritual magic for the team.

Roger that.

Edited my post...

Ok - The last post from Trigger was August 31. Over 2 1/2 months and he is out.

Bishop's last reply has been a few weeks, but he is near/in the area where the wildfires burned in CA. Gonna assume there is something up there.

Talked to Blackhawk last night. He was confused about where the team was. I straightened that out. I will smack him around about posting asap.

So Jake, charge on and I'll look to do some targeted recruiting for an additional player. Consider Carter along for the ride until we determine more about Bishop.

I take it I am once again all alone?

Blackhawk talked to me last night about troubles posting. I'm gonna swing by and see him today and figure out what his difficulty is. Bishop is totally MIA, Trigger has been dropped and Storm resigned. You are all but alone.

We can run either faster pace, fewer players or I can recruit. You tell me..?

Recruit!!!
New meat!!!

Any news on fresh blood?

This is me resurfacing. Is there still a spot for me?

Take 30 lashes, but yes, there is still a spot.

Yay!
IC dropped to page 2. Time to bring it back, don't you think?

RJ--Is there any obvious body armor on the Russians?

They appear as though they came looking for trouble. Armored jackets or lined coats...

I might not be able to post during next week. Just to let you know guys in advance...

I'm expecting a slow down for the holidays. Post if you can, if you can't we'll definitely pick up strong when everyone is back.

Stealth test--I'd like to keep shadows covering my features more than actually remaining hidden. Modifiers? Ehh, I guess it doesn't matter...No Hits

Social test--To smooth over the edges. I'm not here for their men, we can work together...3 Hits

Some measure of success. They didn't start shooting.

Exactly which drones has Jake launched and where are they?
