Do we get to keep the gear acquired for us? I'm interested in the SINs even low ones are useful.

Galen - I edited my last IC right before your last post, but it has no effect on yours. Just some details I had to add and edit.

I did consider that as an option, but Bubba wouldnt do that unless told. He also "likes" Morningstar.

Yes. You paid for it. If you want to dump anything, you can contact Daze or Mr. Johnson and see if they want to buy it back.



Poor confused Bubba.

If you want something done proper, you gotta do it yourself!

When did I say he was glowing???

If you are taking information from the FanPro book that I got the basis of this mission from, please remember that:



Please don't read ahead, because not only will it ruin any surprises, it will also mislead you, as I have changed some of the characters, split others, and merged others.

Past history is driving my assumption, but would Bubba really know any better?

When dealing with dragons:

Rule Number One: Never try to shoot a dragon unless you have something bigger than a panther cannon (still your odds are not good).
Rule Number Two: If you do not have a bigger gun than a panther cannon, do what the dragon says. (Give him the damn Egg!)
Rule Number Three: Once the dragon has what it wants exit the scene quickly before it may consider wanting more. (Better to leave alive than not at all.)

I apologize.

I can see the misunderstanding now.



I will no longer make allusions though, because they seem to be taken literally too often.


It also wasn't very clear.

Sorry.

Smash the fraggin egg! (then act your part as lunch!)

That text was why I used the term glowing. I knew he was not literally glowing, but I was using the same poetic license you appeared to be under.

I have none of the adventure texts from Fanpro. All of my adventures are for 1st or 2nd edition

Okay...

Sorry.

My fault. Disregard everything then!

Thanks!!!

+1 PC point!!!

Does he look any different on the Astral, or is he hiding his astral presence/energy? If he is not hiding himself, I think I got 5 hits on the assensing test, if he is masking, his initiate grade is probably far higher than mine. Felix will just be floating astrally in the room with full spell defense on his team.

Well in a past "Bastard as the DM" dragon setting, I played a bad ass character leader type like Kliko that got his ass handed to him from one back hand of a dragon. It was after his bullets bounced off the beast. My character went all in, 14 combat pool dice on top of a skill level 8. Hit the dragon hard but to no avail as the dragon's body and natural armor laughed it off. This character was min maxed and I was riding my high horse. That lasted all but one round with the dragon. A humbling experience and lesson learned.

The dragon cared only for that egg so if I smashed the egg there would have been no salvaging the character due to dragon fury. I lost all karma awards to keep him alive. But a lesson learned which can be applied here, albeit I still have to stay in character.

He looks mundane.

Already all done Came out of whatever was leftover from the Guiana job.

I think I had Ludi mention it IC before; if the team wants to, she can try to sell back whatever gear they got. She can either go through Daze (local fixer) or try to wiggle out another fence from her other contacts.

I have edited the entry post to the meet, so now Felix and Ludi are still in Kliko's vehicle.

Everyone else is where they are, as they have taken actions that would require everything in between now and that post to be edited.

Now comes the big question: what are the warehouses walls made of?

Old red brick

Mind the paint!

You should have used explosives... lots of explosives (as in a truckload with a virgin in distress tied down on top of the truck, common knowledge dragons are suckers for virgins in distress).
Besides, who says the figure in white is a fraggin dragon? For all we know he is some punk ass spell-slinger who desperately needs to work on his tan and had a glow-spell cast on him.

@Juan: Depends on the outcome of our wrap-up meet. We ditch the kit if we have to get out in a hurry, otherwise it is a good opportunity to recoup some costs

Not sure what Kliko means by demo. Jamie doesn't have a trid unit for display. I have the map and most of the overwatch data and knowledge. However, I have no way to display them.

Present your findings

Jamie has a chip with the matrix run-data or Morningstars telcom records? Something like that, A copy of the runs sim-record would be sweet too. Kliko is not really sure to be honest what the man in White expects, but leaves it up to Jamie's interpretation. I believe Corsairs SUV has a display-unit in it.

He just wants to know why you guys kidnapped Morningstar. What was the data you were looking for.

@Bastard: did 't want to actually whip Morningxtar, just an instinctive reaction aborted in time. Pls edit.

Editing now ...

I know y'all are waiting on me. Today's been busy. I'll try and get a post out tonight.

I can post you loading the info and tossing it back to the man in the white suit.




BTW

Edit completed.

Did Felix ever get anything from the Mindprobe or did Morningstar resist enough of it to not reach through his unconsciousness? (I was presuming that I could mindprobe an unconscious person)

Yeah... you succeeded. I forgot. I had a busy summer!

What are you looking for exactly?

Does he believe his vision of Ghostwalker to be true?
Who does he consider to be his master? Does he have one?
Who was he calling with the suspicious Comm calls?

If its looking like he's guilty then Bank accounts numbers and PINs/Passwords for those accounts

Yes. You find that he believes in everything he has preached and everything the Children of the Dragon stands for.

He does not consider anyone his master persay. However, he does believe that Ghostwalker is the Great Dragon Spirit and the reincarnation of Dunklezahn.

He does not have any memories of making or receiving suspicious calls.

I'll edit this into the talking at the safehouse and then post currently in the IC as well.

ntwi: Kliko would probaply check-in with Felix over the radio (preferring to have Felix stay safe inside the car). That was also the reason he dismissed (and recalled) Jamie. He'd also demand the payment from Mr. White first before spilling that second string of mindprobe information.

Whoops, ah well, if I'm astral pulling overwatch I can't hear the radio anyways. My meat body is still nice and safe inside the car, don't worry about that. The rest of me is just not connected with it at the moment. I hadn't thought about holding the second part of the information back until after payment. Guess thats why you handle the negotiations not me.

Mr. Johnson is Brother Goldwing.

The man in the white suit still has no name.

Mrs. Johnson still has no name.

Yes, Thank you. Yesterday was a mess.

You know they actually owe you 70,000

I only subtracted the costs we made through ms Johnson not the costs through Daze and Morris.

Any way I presumed you put the correct amount on it

Oh... got it... I only subtracted the cost from the home improvement store. My bad. I will just stick with your numbers then.


Jamie finds the correct amount on the stick.

...

Kliko already holstered his Predator. He does have a backup PB-120 in the ankle holster

I thought he was holding it at his side.

Charlie says it is clear.

Totally diggin' the connection to the next run.

If she wants something bigger than the TMP, Ludi can always grab one of the two shotguns in the car.

Kliko needs a scope? For a rifle? That is how Mr. White is responding.

Use the blue for radio transmissions and italics for thoughts. The blue thoughts might get confused for open radio transmissions.

I love how this guy pretty much said:

I want you to kill people and blow shit up.
And here's 100 grand.

Yup.

And there are so many creative ways to kill people or destroy buildings, all depending on how much collateral damage you are willing to accept. Below is just a few of the fun thoughts I had while driving to the hardware store, now edited for clarity:

- Invisibility and Levitate on a manhole cover. Levitate the invisible manhole cover in front of the vehicle windshield whose driver you want to kill. 35-70mph impact of ~50 pounds of metal vs windshield

-Levitate a large (~400kg) Invisible rock into the air and let it fall on a person/car/building

-Lightning Ball a gas/propane/methane/hydrogen delivery truck as it drives past the target

-spill Slip Spray in front of a vehicle as a spirit uses the Accident power on it

-Physical Mask the target to look like a shadowrunner/ganger as he walks up to the security guard at the entrance to the building. Let the guards do the killing for you.

-Mass Blindness on someone as they are working on something delicate/volatile
