Just to update, LA broke both his hands. As we know, Satyr is off the grid for an indeterminate amount of time and Alex has moved his family ~1/2-way across the country. I'll keep posting in as you all are able.

Feel free to work out the details on the assault here in OOC. We can FF as the team needs.

LA - Hope your hands are healing. Post in when you get better.
Alex- Hope your unpacking is going well, same for you.
Satyr - Hope your travels are going well, ditto again.

Not dead - just busy. Still haven't found my books. Weren't in the box I thought they were in. I'm off Friday so I'm hoping I can knock some of this stuff out.

shazam Im back sorry for the prolonged absence.

Ok guys i am back and feeling a lot better. Forgive any typos as my fingers are not working all that great and it still takes a bit longer to type. I'll post up IC in the morning. I'm going to have to go back and reread part of the storyline because that last post Redjack (Val) has me lost regarding the connection of stitch to the warlords to mad max and a favor...


Right now its off to bed time...

If you read back to the beginning of the run, Doc offered 1,000 each, free medical services and to let Mad Max (leader of the Warlords) know you all did a favor for the neighborhood. You have also learned that Stitch is tied in with the Warlords. Small world that it is, if this doesn't go off without a hitch and you are found out, you may negate any good will from the gang leader for the primary run. Just a thought..

Been out of commission for a while. RL and such. I'll try to catch up this week.

Ok. Everyone is kinda back. Let's kick it up and into gear. Satyr - Take back Val.

i was going to roll with what you said in the IC post and see what the others said about it and just run with it from there if possible.

Ghost put in his thoughts. Let's keep going.

Ok. Fast forward to the next morning. Feel free to post for flavor.

sorry i meant to post sooner but I am trying to out process from the UK lol.

Mea culpa. Post posted.

Feel free to had hangover penalties to Ghost for the next bit.

I did a little bump to bring the team back together. Hoping things are coming back together for LA.

Hmmm.. Nearly three weeks since we last heard from LA. If he posts in this week, Hawk will recover fine. If not, he might be catching a nasty stomach virus.

its that time of year ya know. Get your FLU shots.

Indeed it is.

Ok. Give me details for fast forwarding....

Added a Puyallups Game Reference for all Puyallups games.

For the next few minutes Ghost will be contemplating his navel while the headache subsides a bit. Afterward, he's ready to head over to the ganger's place, throw up an invisibility spell and try to sneak the stuff out from under their collective snores.

Nine days since he last checked the board (10/2) and over a month since he last posted (9/7). Since he has checked into the board, but not posted to the game I have to assume his Internet is working but that RL has made this pbp game a non-priority. I will start writing him out of the storyline today.

Saytr - Give me any specifics you want and I'll FF to the next scene.

basically i guess i would like to do a drive by and have Athena do any recon to see if pulling the job right then would be doable. If the thugs are still out we could just steal the whole vehicle and maybe use it for our advantage.

Bridal Boutique Diner to Grey Dragon's Safehouse

Val:
Reaction(6) + Pilot Ground(default: -1) = [1,2,3,6,1] = 1 hit

-------------

Just need to know how close you are getting before you cast invisibility and where you are hiding the bikes.

Just realized I am behind on Karma. 4 karma for posting and getting through the last scene. This makes the following totals:

Val: 7 Karma, 5 CSP
Ghost: 7 Karma, 4 CSP

As soon as he gets his peak of the area. Ghost will maneuver for the cul-de-sac to the southeast of the hideout. Then he'll throw up the invisibility.

almost a critical glitch riding the bike lol. I will follow Ghost until its time to break some skulls.

Given that this is a pbp, now that you have successfully made a default roll, you can spend some of that saved Karma to buy the skill if you like.

Spellcasting 4 + Magic 5 + Intoxication (-1) = 8
[3,4,1,4,5,6,5,4] = 3 hits

Resist Drain

Willpower 5 + Logic 5 + Intoxication (-1) = 9
= 3 hits
Force 5 / 2 = 2 + 1 = 3
3S - 3 = 0S
No stun.

that sounds like a great idea RJ. I think i will be needing any pilot skill when we run from this place lol.

I assume that is a F5 Improved Invisibility on Val?


Done. See first post in this thread for updates.

Yes, yes it is.

Did we ever decide if Ghost's sustaining focus was fit for invisibility? I know we talked about it but can't find it in my notes.

thank you sir.

I don't think we did. It is rating 3, so it can sustain up to a R3 spell when enabled.

EDIT: So it is an Illusion Sustaining foci?

Yes, yes it is.

I've been fighting computer viruses all day so my computer has been rebooting like mad. I'll try to post Sunday afternoon.

Force 3 Invisibility

Spellcasting 4 + Magic 5 + Intoxication (-1) + Sustaining (-1) = 7
[5,5,3,5,1,4,4] = 3 hits

Resist Drain

Willpower 5 + Logic 5 + Intoxication (-1) + Sustaining (-1) = 8
[2,1,5,1,2,2,1,1] = 1 hit, GLITCH
Force 3 / 2 = 1 + 1 = 2
2S - 1 = 1S

Stun = 1

Sustaining is a -2 penalty, but taking the last die still leaves the same number of hits.

Ah yes. Thanks for that.

TAKE 2 -
Force 3 Invisibility

Spellcasting 4 + Magic 5 + Intoxication (-1) + Sustaining (-2) = 6
[4,2,3,4,5,3] = 1 hit

Resist Drain

Willpower 5 + Logic 5 + Intoxication (-1) + Sustaining (-2) = 7
[6,2,5,2,6,2,4] = 3 hits
Force 3 / 2 = 1 + 1 = 2
2S - 3 = 0S

Stun = Still 1

TAKE 3 -

Force 3 Invisibility

Spellcasting 4 + Magic 5 + Intoxication (-1) + Sustaining (-2) = 6
[5,6,2,1,1,3] = 2 hits

Resist Drain

Willpower 5 + Logic 5 + Intoxication (-1) + Sustaining (-2) = 7
[5,5,6,5,2,3,1] = 4 hits
Force 3 / 2 = 1 + 1 = 2
2S - 4 = 0S

Stun = Still 1

Can you believe that I still haven't found my books yet. In some box I've yet to open I guess. I know they packed them. I made sure of that.

The house

Nice picture.

is that the house? Looks good.

Just in case you guys missed the post, its up.

Infiltration rolls please....

Ifiltration 3+AGI 8=11dp=5 hits
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2766962/

Untrained roll. This won't suck. No, not at all.

Infiltration 0 + Agility 3 = 3
[1,4,2] = 0 hits, GLITCH

Damn! Yes, it's going to suck.

Edge, yes, edge is a good thing.

Reroll failures:
[1,6,3] = 1 hit

Better.

maybe you can just stand still and just try to breath quietly lol. its all good if anything goes down have no worries Val will jump through a window and leave you to deal with the bad guys while he makes his escaps j/k

Good news. 50% or more of your dice must be 1's for glitch. If that glitch is combined with 0 hits, it is a critical glitch. Bad news is you mis-figured your dice pool.
Agility(3) + Defaulting Infiltration(-1) = dp2; [1,4,2] = Critical Glitch



Contrary to some discussion on dumpshock, this makes it clear to me that all dice are considered after edge for determining if a glitch still exists.

With the dice pool being the same between re-roll failures and post-roll edge dice roll, I figure you would have either done this instead.

This makes your total dice rolled: [1,4] + [1,6] + [3] You were able to beat the critical glitch and the glitch, ending up with one success.

EDIT: There is one issue. Your dice pools above did not reflect sustained spell(s). So the above example is solely academic.

Assuming you linked one spell and only sustained the other...
Agility(3) + Defaulting Infiltration(-1) + Sustaining spell (-2) = dp0

Being the nice GM and taking the second dice pool as your long shot edge roll, you end up with: [1,6] One success and a Glitch

Yikes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is why I need to find my RPG books.

Intuition(3) + Perception(2) + Hang over(-1) + Actively Looking(3) [2,3,2,3,1,6,2] = 1 hit
