Doc was arrested, so if Unarmed is able to make it back due to his job situation changing he'll be relatively easy to bring back into play.

If I determine Doc becomes a full blown NPC, I may bring him back out to resolve certain subplots (Grack and Doc) or I may just leave him to rot in the Greybar Hotel.

In case my post wasn't clear, he isn't dead, they just stun batoned him into unconsciousness and arrested him.

For your purposes though, assume he's out of commission for the indefinite future.

Fortunately, I'm sure you'll all be glad to know the police were able to put down the mad lunatic troll before any innocents were hurt, keeping the good people of Bellevue safe from the unsavory lowlife criminal elements that are distressingly common these days.

Thumper has some interest in spending time playing with the gun and figuring out how it works (training time), but he wasn't lying about the game of pool. That's higher on his priority list.

You guys are doing great RP, go ahead and 'find' a pool hall somewhere if you want. If you do go to one, someone write up the location and a brief description and stick it on the wiki so we can use it for future reference, as I have a feeling you guys will be going back there more than once.

@Winter Or Vegas: I had a thought on how to get my martial arts stuff down. I'll just tell you guys what I want and can you tell me what I get? I think just two manuvers fer right now. A disarm and either a trip attack or a bonus dmg attack.

@Vegas: Could you link my take of Baby to her sheet? I can't seem to do it. :O

@Slipshade: Hey chica! Como est ta?

@Meriss

Your takes are linked to Baby's sheet. I'll have to look through maneuvers for you later, can't do it this very second.
OK, just taking a quick peek here, likely options would be:



@All

I'm gonna go in to everyone's takes and add Baby in so people can write their takes for her when they have the chance.

Meriss - Slipshade the player = Bueno

Baby = No tan bueno

Grack accidentally summoning a Force 1 Spirit of Man and then napping off stun.



Am going to IC about 75 minutes forward. More to follow once it looks like others have progressed to my point in time.

@Vegas: Cool, gracias chica.

@Winter: In that case I'll take Disarm and Sweep, and convert my last Category B BP to Karma and hold on to it for future use. Am I clear to continue the Saga of Raymundo?

EDIT: Nevermind. I didn't realize you preapproved me to post on the last page of OOC *duuuuuuuuh*

Thought I should mention that the stuff Baby pulls off of the gangers in her opening post is all stuff I paid BP's for. I just wanted to give her a reason to have it.

@Slipshade: Welcome to the crew. That pic of baby is hot lol. Where did you and Vegas get those pics from lol?

@Adamu: You got a double post in the IC

@WR: My IC is up. If there are any problems with it let me know, otherwise I think the ball is back in your court as far as Fool is concerned. Oh Fool went from A6/B6 to B4

Man I see three area's Fool would love to fit into within the gang. Help running the girls( great for his addiction), Pushing any drugs we make if Felix really can make them, or it would be really cool if could help out Baby(I just feel like there would be a really easy connection there, she could teach Fool how to ride and he could possably start helping her smuggle stuff. Especially if she upgrades to a car or van.). All of those sound exciting any of you people doing those things look for opportunities or include Fool. Im out of action for awhile but I want to fall into one of those area's naturally. Just giving a heads up to people I may be working with =).

Meriss - Post a complete breakdown of your spending for me and I'll approve or disapprove. You have put up several versions over time and I don't want to guess which one is your 'final' submission for my approval. Thanks!

Also, don't post IC just yet. See my note to Abbandon below. Feel free to discuss his decision with him.

Abbandon - You posted kind of far, time and distance wise. That's not a problem, but your post gave me an idea.

Would you like to hook up with Meriss? I was considering having his group spot you on your way to the clinic, but if that's the case, obviously you'll have to edit your post to account for this.

Just so you know, the reason I'm doing this is for the possibility of hooking up you and Meriss in game, since you both have been playing by yourselves for some time now, so this is at least a chance for you both to have the opportunity to RP with other players.

This is strictly your call, if you'd rather stick with your original post, I'll take it from there, but I wanted to give you and Meriss the option so we can get more interaction between PCs.

Also, Fool still doesn't know what time it is, so please convert your time/date stamp to question marks, like my original one. Let Meriss and I know if you want to have Ink and Fool meet up, in which case also edit your post accordingly.

If you want to stick with the original post, let me know and I'll respond IC.

Slipshade - Love your opening post. Dark, grim, and depressing as hell.

Pragma, Voorhees, Rob - For timing purposes I actually prefer it if you guys go shoot pool for a few hours, so by all means, please run with that! If you need anything from me, let me know.

All - I haven't had time to go through Slip's character in detail since his last revisions, can someone please run his numbers and check the math and that he's in compliance with all the character creation requirements, and let me know if he's good to go? I know some of you are excellent at that stuff, so I figure I may as well make use of your talents. Thanks much!

If anyone needs anything else from me, let me know.

@Grendel
Thumper sent Legiion a message a while ago detailing what they'd found in their old turf. However, for the sake of chronological integrity we might want to say it was lost in the matrix and just wait until the Thumper et al. get back from the pool game. WR1 may have something to say about it.

@Slipshade

I checked Baby's sheet over. Stats and Atts are perfect, only thing I caught is the gear list. You're over by about 70 nu if I include the 20 Stealth tags you've got listed above in with her commlink but don't have accounted for at the bottom with all the rest of her gear.

If you tweak the gear in some fashion so you shave off the 70 nu you should be good to roll.

Sounds good. If you check my latest IC post you'll see that it does very much matter who's at the Gang HQ at that particular time. So for simplicity's sake, it's probably best to say you all followed your plan to go shoot pool somewhere and assume the message was lost in the matrix, since Legion hasn't responded to them yet and I've already moved forward with my preplanned event.

All - Don't forget to periodically update your takes! Baby is linked to all of you so you can post your takes of her, and of course you can update your takes for everyone else as well. Vegas updated Nevada's, and Baby's are fun to read as well. So by all means, keep updating your views of one another and your rival gangs.

@Abbandon - Don't know where Vegas found Nevada's pic, but I just hit a modeling agency website did a search and looked through about 200 pictures to find someone that was close to what I pictured Baby to be. Cute, but not sexy and could pass for a boy or younger kid with the right clothes and make up.

In the future Baby wouldn't mind showing people the ropes when it comes to being a courier/smuggler or just riding. If it helps her status in the gang and if Legion wants to start operations that need it. She'd be all for it. Something to think about though is when it comes to crossing a number of gang territories she prefers to go on foot. "You know, all stealth and shit." Bikes and cars have there uses, but they can get trapped and blocked in easy. Mode of travel tends to depend on need.

Vegas - Thanks for looking it over. I forgot about the stealth tabs. I will update soon and let you know what I changed



WR1 - Thanks, I tried. And thanks about the takes. I kept them pretty short till I interact with everyone a little more.

Well I'd rather be alone heh. Dont want anyone to see me like that. Maybe he could spot some naked guy with a blue tarp cape and not think anything of it, or he could recognize Fool and yell out but get ignored by Fool. Fool is near death I dont think he will be that talkative or provide that great of an interaction with Ink lol.

Thanks for pointing out the double post - sorry about that, everyone. I was having a horrible time getting the board to accept my posts the other night (was that just me?), and something must have gone wrong as I tried to bend the computer to my will.

Anyway, I already have my next post to bring Grack up to Legion-time (4-ish) planned out in my mind, so I will stick it there, and post a note here when it is up. Won't be tonight, though.

@Winter: You got it boss. Spoilered more for brevity than anything else.


And Ink is going to swing over to the Sally Ann and grab the second seating for lunch and sit through the sermon for something to do.

Edit: or not, *sigh* I don't know why I thought that the rescue mission had a cafeteria still. Oh well. Pizza Bank it is then.

Edit the Edit: Winter, I'm not sure if you were ready to have us squaring up with the Plague or not. But I figured that as soon as they figured out that none of the LoCoS would be trying to stop them they'd be on the move south. Integrate or not as you see fit.

@Abbandon: Well If you want to be alone thats up to you.

WR1 - Character is fully ready to be checked out. Vegas had a bit of confusion at the stealth tags, but we figured it out. Go ahead and finish looking her over when you get a chance.

@Slipshade

Did the final go-over with WR, got his approval to tell you Baby's approved and you're good to go

Rock on friend, get to posting!

@Winter: I had thought on how to make some money, but I'll need your approval. Spoilering the discussion so that it's a bit more private.

Well damn, my time stamp doesn't much match my description. I will edit it when I get home.

Okay - I have replaced that heinous double-post with an entry bringing Grack up to the same time as Legion.

@Winter - as long as you don't object, that post was intended to represent two hours training toward Astral Combat.

No sweat Adamu.

Sorry guys, didn't get anywhere near as much done tonight as I'd hoped. I'll try to catch up on those who are waiting on various items over the course of tomorrow and Friday night.

WR1 - Here is a stealth (Infiltration) Roll for Baby if you need it. I have no idea how much you have her marked up for Damage, but I assume it is bad. I'm just hoping the others are pretty focused on each other.

@WR1
I know you're busy but I shot you a PM and wanted to double check that it hasn't vanished into the ether.

Slip - You're fine, as long as Baby doesn't move or otherwise draw attention to yourself. Be aware they may know you're there, they just might not care. If Baby's seriously stupid enough to make a move at this point...well, uh, great character, I suggest starting work on your next one!

As for her condition monitor, I'm going to say Baby has 7 boxes of Stun and 7 boxes of Physical. My rationale is she's been physically, mentally, emotionally, and sexually been beaten into the ground for the past several days, with very little, if any, real time to actually recover. She’s not quite on the verge of death (after all, they just wanted to beat her into submission, not kill her outright), but she’s very messed up since it was over such a prolonged period of time.

Pragma – I have your PM, I need time alone with Arsenal to ponder your questions and give you a good reply.

WR1 - No Baby isn't stupid. She's not even gonna twitch. I completely agree with your damage assessment as well. I will record the damage on the wiki.

Slip - One more thing, Baby knows the name Cherry as well. Everyone knows he's the Number 2 for the UV Nights, and as such is a fearsome character in Kingsgate as well.

Not so much for who he himself is (although that's certainly part of it; you don't get to be the number 2 in that group by being a slouch) but for who he represents, namely the single most dreaded individual in Kingsgate: Meltdown.

Yep, I'm sure Baby is going to be VERY quiet indeed.

Side Note: I really liked her internal monologue, it didn't even occur to me that from another POV, it could look like Legion and Nevada are together. Very interesting...

Yeah that just came together weird. I was thinking about what Baby knows, which is very little and what she sees. She knows the warehouse is gone and was told there were no survivors. She makes it back and sees Nevada, who kind of had a rep as a girl that didn't have a problem sleeping her way to the top, with Legion of all people on the 8-Balls old turf. Just kind of fell into place. Baby won't likely jump to any conclusions, but she can't rule it out either.

Vegas - That was kinda her rep wasn't it? If I was reading things right.

Slip - I would suppose she could definitely carry that rep, even if it's not entirely accurate. Then again it's the streets of Kingsgate, who cares about accuracy Run with it, it still fits the character very well

@ Vegas - Just wanted to make sure I wasn't throwing something out there that was totally opposite Nevada's character.

Oh lord no. Not at all

Slipshade - How could you possibly think that way about Nevada! She's as pure as the freshly fallen snow!

LOL!

Yeah, the Yellow kind.

Hehe

After all the hurry to catch up to everyone, it feels weird not having to post all the time.

I'll just HAVE to write up something for Five Corners now.

@Slipshade: Please do. I think it would be awesome. If for no other reason than that it would give us (the players) in visualizing Baby's formative environment. Or why she is the way she is.

@Winter: I guess from Grendel's non reaction to Inks message that the Trix has not diminished its appetite in any way? Or maybe Legion just does't give a flying fuck. Or who knows? Does Inks message home get there? Also I have an idea on how to move Ink and Child foward to get them back to HQ. I was thinking on posting my next IC with them starting to do some scavenging in Corsairs turf. I'll post that tommorrow. Need to sleep.

@Meriss

Grendel not responding might have more to do with the fact that Legion is over 3 hours ahead of you IC in game time (when you posted). Hard to respond in a "flashback"

@Vegas: True. Never thought of it that way. Oh well.

Hmmm shall I advance? yay or nay?

So how are we handling the pool game? Opposed Agility + Logic test, like in the 410 Crash game? If so, I'll just go ahead and do that...

Agility 7 + Logic 2 = 9 dice.
2 [6] [6] 1 [5] 4 3 [6] 1 = 4 hits.

Ooooo I dont know how you did it in 410 but I instantly thought of a way.. first you roll 1 die and consult a table:

The numbers in brackets is the threshold for the shot. I play a ton of pool on yahoo lol.

Hey All - Real Life hit me kind of hard over the last few days, sorry there hasn't been much in the way of updates from me. Look for me to get caught up this weekend.

I play in a lot of pool halls, heh...

While that would work, I like the less cumbersome and neater Logic + Agility test.

@ WinterRat1 - No problem. I don't know about everyone else, but it gave me a chance to get caught up.

Pool Test, Agi+Log # dice 8 :: 1 5 3 1 6 1 4 2 -- 2 hits

Thumper gets stomped. Which is pretty appropriate -- this isn't his strong suit.

I'm ready to IC up to the present if we get cleared for chronological advancement.

Thats fine by me.

@Winter: The general idea is for Ink and Child to wander around in Corsairs turf to find whatever they can salvage. If they see any old Corsairs Ink will offer them membership in the Ravens. Also he wants the whores to keep an eye for any potential buisness.

If you want to fast forward through this, I don't mind. Or if you want to RP it out thats cool too.

Abbandon -

First Aid Test by the Clinic: 8 hits
Less: Minimum Threshold of 2

Total Boxes of Physical Healed from Clinic's First Aid Test: 6 boxes.

Physical Healing Test
Total Hits: 3
Time to Heal 1 Box of Physical: 8 hours

Time to Heal all Stun: 5 hours.

No Physical Boxes healed due to rest as of 20:00:00.

Summary:
It took Fool 5 hours to sleep off all the Stun. He also healed 6 Physical boxes due to the clinic's first aid test. Apparently there's something to be said for being treated by trained professionals in a good environment.

Fool will wake up at 20:00:00 with 0 Stun and 2 Physical, and will heal an additional box of Physical per 8 hours of rest, per our healing time rules.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Can I keep the hospital clothes ?? lol.

I know I couldnt make the first aid test for the clinic but was I suppose to have made my own healing roll? The only reason im asking is because If I was and you were waiting on it I didnt mean to make you wait.

ooc: I will be waiting around until everyone catches up to me timewise. I guess I will work on a dream sequence but hold on on posting it.
