Full Version: OOC: Down in the Barrens II
How long is it going to take Doc to fix up Stitch? Is he going to need to stay the night or should i wait for him? I was thinking about checking out the storage lot for the items stump mentioned but i don't want to monopolize time from the rest of the group.

Congratulations Daddy!!

WoW! 9lbs for a first time mom. Congrats boss. Enjoy the days while you can. In a few years it all goes down hill....starts with the learning of the word "NO".....then next thing she will be asking for the car keys to take her punk rocker boyfriend out...coming home with a navel piercing and a new tattoo...
Ok maybe that was just my childhood
Congrats! My "new" one just turned one. May you have many, happy memories.
My oldest is now home from AIT, one fully trained, bad-ass army MP.

Hawk; Friday, March 27th, 2071; 6:36pm; Red-E-Stor at 166th Ave NE and NE 92nd Ave, Redmond Barrens, Seattle
Five minute trip from Doc Phin's to the Red-E Stor is uneventful. A first pass by the Red-E-Stor yields the following information: The storage units are two rows, front and back, maybe a dozen deep on each row. There is no lighting in the area and it is encircled by a chain link fence, with two rows of barbed wire across the top. A small office sits at the gate entrance to the lot; It is about 3m square. A total of four cars sit on the street within 1/2 a block of the entrance. They are all older model cars.

Are there any residential homes in this area? People on the street? People in the small office?
FYI:
My computer harddrive decided to get sick and threaten dying. I will have to buy a new one and reinstall the OS. I should be back up to full post speed by this weekend.

Not really sure where Val and Ghost are going next...? Where to?
Yeah! My computer is back. Back to the posting.
Ghost will stick around as long as Val needs him but will be heading home soon to do some astral surveillance and sleep off the beginnings of his hangover.

val was looking for anything useful to find out who or what he was doing down here in these parts. also the baby is taking up a lot of time and what not. so if i dont post once a week RJ please feel free to play puppeteer. thanks.
I didn't forget...just super wicked busy this week with halloween sales and christmas just around the corner. I'll make some time tonight or this weekend to post up IC.
Works for me.
I started to post, but it appears there has been a little back tracking in the posts.
Rather than post in the past, I would prefer to reconcile the team to the current team without invalidating the current timeline. So, at this point, Hawk performed the inital recon on his own. How would we like to get Val & Ghost to 6:42?

Traffic jam? At some point Ghost is going to need to do some astral recon.

I did my best to do the out-of-time chat in a manner that would have been appropriate given the time it happened. The time Hawk left off at doesn't appear to have been fouled. If the group wants to hook up with Hawk they could be arriving shortly after Hawks current time. I will respond in IC appropriate to the decision made by all.

sorry i might have missed something along the way distractions are abundant now a days lol. traffic jam works espcially with the road conditions of the 2070's.
All - The holidays will probably throw a big wrinkle in regular posting and work is still a little jiggy, in addition to sucking my will to use the muscle between my ears when not trapped at work.
Arcana - We're good.
Satyr - Better check the map again. You are out in nowhere and in addition to being nowhere near highway, you are in an area that is a C- security rating at best.

Post is up. Trying to get through RL. How is that new baby Satyr?
i will post some pictures on myspace check it out . i never knew sleep depervastion was from having children lol.
Ok. Ramping back up. December is starting to look like life and work will resemble normal.
----------
Ok. Hawk is at the booth/gate. Val & Ghost are less than 30 seconds away.
LordArcana - Go ahead and post in RE: my last post having you at the gate and the fact your team is inbound.

I'll hold back a post in lieu of a little more character interaction.
Well it looks like i am on the outs with my current D&D Saturday Night Group. Guess this means i have a time slot open i can fully dedicate to here. I'll post up some more IC when i get home from the race about 5pmish EST.
Also got my PS3 back from getting fixed. I'm so happy now...my life is complete

I'm trying to lock back into my posting at least Sundays and maybe slide in a second post otherwise in the week.
Copy that. My posting has gone down a bit too. RJ, anything special Ghost would know prior to dropping (attempting to anyway) the pooches?
Hawk: Perception [defaulting](-1) + Intuition(4) + Vision Enhancement(3) + Thermographics vs. Full-Darkness(-3) = dp4
[4,6,6,4] = 2 hits
[1,2,4,5] = 1 hit
========================
Alex: Spell and spirit wise, Ghost has several magical options available to him as well as any mundane choices. The dogs are on the other side of a chain link fence, so at least you have them at bay for the moment.
=========================
All
Google Maps Link - Red-E-Stor was built directly under the pin (You have to imagine it). The rest of the scene is as it appears on the map.

sorry i have been sluggish on my posting aswell i am trying to deal with familiy and weather here in the UK. i will try to stay on top of my posting though from now on. later.
@RJ
Not sure if the one extra hit would make a difference on those perception rolls, but as part of the 10 BP at character build you told me to take Perception 1, so not sure if i would be defaulting on those tests.

My bad. I see that in my notes at the end of your sheet now:Hawk: Perception (1) + Intuition(4) + Vision Enhancement(3) + Thermographics vs. Full-Darkness(-3) = dp6
[4,6,6,4] + [3,6] = 3 hits
[1,2,4,5] + [5,3] = 2 hit
Hawk: Perception (1) + Intuition(4) + Vision Enhancement(3) + Thermographics vs. Full-Darkness(-3) = dp6 -> Loiterers
[5,4,3,2,1,2] = 1 hit
[5,4,3,2,1,2] = 1 hit

I've been out of town and just insanely busy. Bear with me a bit more. I hope to update all my games tonight.

No Prob boss man. I just didn't want you to think I was losing interest or anything. The conversation you and I had before joining the game still echo's in my skull. I would hate to see my current character used and abused like that
We had established quite a consistent post rate and then I was the one that went and blew it. I am making a concerted effort to retake some free time in my life for posting. As a note, the third week of February I expect to be almost completely off the grid most of the week.

OMG dude, 13 hour days suck hardcore. Just make sure to take care of yourself if you are doing them for extended periods. A buddy of mine died about 2 months ago....fell asleep on his way home and wrapped his durrango around a metal light pole.
INDEX, early end for 13 hour we did awesome knocked out what we had to. so business as usual. I can post regularly now. with a 5 month old daughter i make certain precautions so i don't get tired hello redbull and monster. or yellow jackets if i am really struggling.

Not sure if a perception test is required for attempting to see if the gangers have hidden weapons, but if it is i'm using the vision enhancement(3) of the helmet.

Visual enhancement. Check. Secret perception check made. Check.
Need a post IC that moves us forward.
