appears to be a ward. Force is lower than your magic attribute

Lower than 14 eh?

Perception Test (-1 TN; Perceptive Edge)
4, 5, 5, 3, 2, 1

Quick question, when we got to the building was there a buzzer at street level and at the door? Or only at one?

It's someone at street level buzzing up, there is no door bell at the apartment door.

*edits her post* that's what I get for reading and posting in IC before reading the OOC...

Hearing based Perception checks please.

Each person knows the flavor text that was ascribed to people earlier than them, basically reflecting the different rolls that each person got.

There are a few things that will initiate reaction or initiative but, I'm not going to call for it yet in case people want to do something before answering the door.

Is the intention at this point to open the door?

If yes, then roll reaction please.

well, waiting until all the others are ready before opening.

10, 5, 2, 2, 2, 2

Reaction Roll:
4, 4, 5, 3

Reaction (12 + 3 from SUT)
17 11 10 05 05 05 05 04 04 04 03 02 02 01 01

Will karma if needed to go before they shoot Hafiz.

Speaking of Karma...

What's our total up to now? Like 140-something or so?

Here's the order:
Calisto
Fool
Goon W/Gun
Jack
Evil Mage
Donovan
Nanashi

Fenris--I didn't see a post for you so I rolled your reaction.

I didn't bother rolling, since I have the flaw that makes me always go last.

Besides, I'm hiding under the bed.

My guess was your action would be to continue hiding, so I wasn't pressing the matter until the goons got through everyone else in the room and came hunting you down. =)

Is there anything under the bed I can use for more cover to hide behind?

Likely more clutter...yes, Nanashi, is somewhat of a packrat...

Sorry about that McQuillan, thought I had already rolled it.

Spell Defense dice all around

Everyone not Awakened gets one from Donovan's Sorcery Pool. The Fool gets 3.

Calisto 1
Jack 1
Trixie 1
Fool 3
Donovan 0
Nanashi 0

Cool, Trixie will move things around under the bed to hide her the best she can. That way if the team goes down, maybe she'll be overlooked.

Okay, going to wait for the Fool to open the door then try to take out the thug with the piece. Do you want me to post my rolls or what to see what unfolds?

Post your rolls. The Fool is just going to take a simple to open the door and book it for cover.

Ok will wait for the Fool to open the door

Small Unit Tactics (for extra combat pool)
16 10 05 04 04 04 01 (6 successes/3 extra dice)

Will move forward to cut down the Goon

Edged Weapons Sp: Swords (8 skill/8 combat pool/4 ambidexterity) TN 4 (reach to him)

19 11 10 09 09 09 08 05 05 05 04 04 04 03 03 03 02 01 01 01 (13 successes)

Base Damage 11S

Will karma if needed to make sure he goes down before he hurts Hafiz

You're wanting Initiative rolls, right?

4 + 6, 2, 2, 1 = 15

Donovan will attempt to cover the room and intercept any magical threats coming from the windows or the goon with the gun if he is still alive.

No initiative yet, that'll wait for if anyone is left standing at the end of the surprise round.

Jack, what are you doing?

buddha--Roll Int and Spell defense for me.

Intelligence
11 10 10 09 05 04 04 04 03 01

Spell Defense
09

Will karma if needed, feel free to roll. Just let me know.

Simple to look for targets, simple to take a shot if I see someone.

Perception: 2, 1, 11 ,4, 5, 3, 3, 17, 17

Fenris--Jack hears someone moving in the hallway heading for Calisto. Don't see anything yet.

Team--Let's have everyone else roll their Int and any spell defense that happens to be up.

Including me?

What the heck, I'll thow one out just in case.

Int + 1: 14 10 09 07 05 05 04 03 01 01

If you're peeking out from under the bed I'll need it.

ick... 5, 4, 2, 2, 1, 1

Quick question: Can I hold my second simple to shoot the guy when he appears? If I can't, I'll take an action to aim at the location where he'll appear, and try to fire next round.

Intelligence Roll: 1, 4, 10, 4, 5, 4

Spell Pool remaining for Spell Defense: 3, 2, 1, 4, 8, 5

Donovan--You're up.

Ok. I wasn't sure if Jack's turn was over or not.

Yeah, Donovan is done.

Whizbang--You can't directly effect anyone who moved faster than you in a reaction round.

Edited...can I keep those rolls if he's still around when I can effect him?

Sure thing...

Initiative time
