Okay, was wondering. Now if only Blitz will respond so we can continue.

Thanks Blitz.

There are several kits scattered about the room. With a little hunting around you'll find what you'll need.

All

If you have any Electronics or Mechanical skills give me a roll. You can use a knowledge skill if it involves the same or cybernetics. Open test so just post the skill and the highest number generated.

The time in game is now 3 am.

Eight hours later, poof, isntant ward Force 8 ward!

Magic check: 2,2,8,9,4,9,3,8,7,1

Fenris, just how did you get in the van?
It's locked.

Im sure he would have asked for it to be left unlocked and Im DOUBLY sure no one would have told him NO seeing as how he's warding it.

Fair enough. But, isn't that a colossol waste of time? won't the ward be shattered as soon as the vehicle moves?

No. The location doesn't need to be stationary, it simply needs to be a space defined by physical barriers. I couldn't ward a random empty space in a field. The barriers in this case will be the walls, floor, and roof of the van.

[EDIT]And rather then drag the process out for another two or three posts, I assumed you'd give me access to the van, as we've already discussed the fact that we were going to ward it just as soon as we had time, and you agreed.[/EDIT]

Give Fenris a gold star!!

That's correct.

Like I said before, good point.
Yes, Murrey opened it for you.

Going to bump the story line around 5 pm PST (my time) to when Iblis gets back to the house with your money.

Intelligence check to search the Toyota.

How much was parking?

Nikoli

It will cost 20 nuyen to get the car. The car looks clean.

Blitz

What force ward did you create on the house?

Noted, thanks.

My plan is to ward for 6 hours (Force 6 ward)

Then to take a much needed shower to refresh myself, mind and body.

Then to sit down with Izzy and see if he's comfortable with letting me mind probe him.

what time does Iblis arrive?

The time in game is now 11 am.

Eep...my warding only took me 6 hours...I should have been able to begin the mind probe if Izzy was willing at around 9:30 (giving time for a shower)

Drat...it looks like the time line crept forward. Nevermind....I think I can salvage it

Buddha, do I know any spells that might be effective on the nomads without hurting the hosts? Perhaps mana only spells on the astral, or Spirit Blast or something?

Sorry...brain fried...dont remember my target numbers here

Fenris, what about spirit bolt?

How sure would I feel about the connection between the wierd tracker on my van and the crushed walker drone at the club? Do I think the same peron worked on both or possibly had the same teacher, etc?

Astral Perception: 08 05 05 02

Fenris

Mana based spells would affect the Nomad and leave the host uninjured. Physical based spells would affect the host but not the Nomad. The spirit line of spells would work as well.

Nikoli

You are pretty confident that the bug and drone are the handiwork of the same person or persons. The parts all have the same uniform lack of identification. I assumed that you took a look at it during the down time. You found the memory contained still photos of Changlings attending the rave. Every person photographed was accounted for amongst the dead. You put the final body count at 53 people.

Thanks.

Who currently has the Battle-tac receiver?
There is a text message on it.

Paladin has one.

Were there any other drone on the sunscriber list?
Co-ordinates of the rigger in control?

Nikoli

One other drone and this one seems to have been relayed through a condor (the other drone) and then a SAT-link of some sort. The SAT-link info is heavily encrypted and seems to have mods to it that seem more computer based than riggering. You've heard of all sorts of nasty things deckers can do to stored data.

So this looks like a rigging emulator thing, not a rigged thing?

You think so.

Gotcha.

sorry...will post when I get home.

Uhm........what happened? You forgot about me and my little thread?

Look that way.

But I'm sure we'll forgive her.

sorry...ive had NO time...i can't wait until this f*#$% conference is over.

I PROMISE Ill post tonight

HA HA! My 2nd successful link thingie! I have mastered this technology!

Grats. BTW, that art is wicked

well buddha? what additional details can I give them?

Blitz & Nikoli

Izzy never got a good look at the plates on the van but tthe body type matches the Leyland-Rover Transport (I am assuming you have a complete index of current vehicles) design.

Thanks.

Blitz & Nikoli

Going to jump the gun and give you all the info. The exterior of the van has nothing unusual to it that Izzy could see. Moira is pretty confident that she could recognize any of the four people if she saw them again.

All

Just to make sure no one forgets anything. You have a blood sample, a syringe with traces of something in it, some rope from the ceiling, and samples from the ritual area in the clue bin for the Scooby gang to track down old man Withers with.

I forgot about the syringe, I just edited my last IC post to inclued that.

Does the workroom have any chem tools?

No such tools here.

Does it have a steel bucket, lighter fluid, a ceramic bowl and a lighter?
I'm thinking I could use the gas spectrometer, zero out the fumes, etc of the lighter fluid, and burn a sample of the materiel in the syringe.
