Quickdraw quiver allows you - as far as I am concerned - to use the quickdraw action with arrows. And yes, the seeker shafts are a flat addition to the existing arrow.

Did Abdecker miss or ignore bnc's request? Or did you miss it OoC?

Sorry, missed your post ooc. Should probably refresh more when posting from my smartphone
Volker
Mar 21 2019, 06:37 PM
ah okay ^^
how does it work, rulewise? Do I have to buy cybereyes? Or only the additional costs for magnification, thermovision and stuff? What capacity do I have?
Thanee
Mar 21 2019, 07:06 PM
You should buy sensors, not cybereyes.
p. 446 SR5 for individual stuff or p. 123 Rigger 5 for the drone specific Sensor Attribute.
As for capacity... p. 122 Rigger 5 "The Basics" covers that.

Yeah, you basically take the camera that is already within the drone as part of the sensor array and add the necessary vision enhancements
Volker
Mar 22 2019, 06:53 AM
Okay, thank you, lads!
In my case, I have sensor 5, thus also a capacity of 5. Thus, I could add:
- low-light [1]
- flare compensation [1]
- thermographic vision [1]
- vision magnification
Volker
Mar 22 2019, 06:58 AM
Okay, lads, thanks!
As I have sensor 5, I should also have 5 points of capacity.
Does a drone need the smartlink upgrade of its sensors or does it count as if having a DNI?
If not, I'd like to take:
- low-light vision [1]
- thermographic vision [1]
- flare compensation [1]
- vision magnification [1]
- vision enhancement 1 [1]
That would sum up to € 2000.
Jack_Spade
Mar 22 2019, 04:57 PM
Drones use smartsoft from Rigger5, no need for smartlink
Volker
Mar 22 2019, 05:49 PM
If that's okay, I'd also take:
audio enhancement III [3] € 1500
select sound filter II [2] € 500
So, that would be € 4,000 for the upgrade. We received € 10,000 from Nacl, so that'd be a plus of € 6,000 right?
Can he organize both upgrades?

It's a safe place, we can do as much or as little with it as you want. But the main function should be to give you IP a time to coordinate, reach out and plan your next steps.
You have a reasonable guess that Bean Si will already be in Salzburg, so whatever measures you want to undertake to find, help or stop her, now is the time to talk them through.

Well, no need to overcomplicate these things - also I think I had so many NPCs ignore Anna's advances, I thought it was time for her to have a more satisfactory outcome for once

@Jack: So about our new toys: Can we assume Abdecker already brought us/installed the non-exotic presents? Or are our characters still in the dark about when our presents arrive?
Volker
Apr 3 2019, 05:51 AM
Abdecker told us it would take some time and he'll reach out to us then. IC only one night passed.

Ah, thanks, I totally missed that part.

@Jack:
Wraith has the spell Mindnet (Extended). If he uses that spell to show Anna Kerstin's aura, would you allow Anna/her spirits to search for her, just like if she had seen it herself?
Jack_Spade
Apr 5 2019, 02:02 PM
A creative solution, I'll allow it
Luckace
Apr 5 2019, 07:26 PM

Apr 7 2019, 12:23 PM
Do we know anything by now how she regains essence?
Jack_Spade
Apr 7 2019, 08:54 PM
Regaining Essence?
That's only something Strain I HMHVV sufferers can do (and certain spirits). Kerstin needs flesh from sapient beings.
But yes, you can assume that she will not go out during daylight.
Also, you know that she was pretty obsessed about what happened to bnc, going so far as to hire Abdecker to look for her.
Volker
Apr 7 2019, 09:32 PM
a) Doesn't she need the flesh for regaining essence?
b) Do we know which results Abdecker already provided her?
Thanee
Apr 7 2019, 10:19 PM
I think she is more like a ghoul than a vampire. Ghouls do not lose Essence at all. But they have to eat raw meat to survive (as "regular" food). Vampires lose Essence and have to refill that, but they also have a "special diet" (blood in their case). The raw meat is the equivalent to the blood.

Ah, all right. I never occupied myself much with ghouls. Thought it worked the same way. Thanks for clarification.

Just a reminder: wraith does have a relative current picture of Kerstin in his mind: he dug through the memories of Assault, who nearly caught Kerstin a month ago.

Apr 12 2019, 08:43 AM
lol, I confused the two mages. It was Anna with the Resist Pain spell.
@gilga: Does the "I'll do that" refer to the heal spell or is she indicating that she's the one with the painkiller? Because if the latter's the case, bnc didn't get it.
Gilga
Apr 12 2019, 05:40 PM
Anna has magical painkillers, she'll use them though she thinks bnc is crazy. bnc should know that Anna has magical painkillers she used them in front of her for herself, and Nova and perhaps Wraith (not sure about Wraith).
Volker
Apr 13 2019, 12:13 PM
@gilga: bnc would only state laconically that surgery is not considered to be mutilation in modern civilizations, but she'll happily accept both the Resist Pain and the Heal spell.
@Jack: Did we regain one point of edge in the Adler?
Jack_Spade
Apr 13 2019, 04:40 PM
Yes, certainly
Luckace
Apr 14 2019, 07:59 PM
So, I just thought of something that I find pretty cool, but I'm quite unsure if the rules would allow Wraith to think of that:
There is the band "Twisted Sister". To anyone doing research, a name like [i]"Twisted Sister Revival Corp"[/i], combined with a band's logo would only hint at some neo-rockers, which fits perfectly with the alibi of "tell us your pirate-channel".
To Kerstin, however, it'd be a dead giveaway at bnc's return.
I kinda like that idea, but, well, remembering Twisted Sister a century past their prime would be quite a feat.
@Jack: How does this go - Do you allow simply carrying over present-day cultural references or do I need to make a knowledge roll or something?

Is it a 20th century band IC, too, or is it a contemporary band of the 2070s?

When were we supposed to meet Abdecker in Innsbruck again? Was it tomorrow, and did he roughly specify a time?
