Feb 12 2004, 12:17 AM
Yep saw it. I am going to assume a lot of actions since you're all experienced runners but feel free to throw out things at me. Die rolling do your self and post the results, just let me know what you're using and for what.

FYI..I intend to arrive earlier in the evening so that I can enjoy the lovely atmosphere of the club before attending the meet.
Buddha72
Feb 12 2004, 01:18 AM
Sure, anyone who has any sort of night life or high society skill, magical groups, meta-humanity, or organized crime. Roll it and let me know what skill it is for background on the club.

Heads up to everyone, tomorrow afternoon I am going to bump the time line to the meet so make sure you post letting me know when you're arriving and what you're bringing. So try to get any intel in now for me to reply to. I will bump at 3 pm PST. That is all.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled life......

Give me a Perception test please.
Bakatare
Give me a Perception, let me know whether astral or mundane or do both.
Nikoli
Feb 13 2004, 05:37 PM
Perception: 8 2 2 3 5 5
If needed, Sensor: 4
Also, you may want to look at the local user time for each of the players, I know I'm 6 hourse behind you, if that helps at all for timing when to look for posts.
Buddha72
Feb 13 2004, 06:22 PM
Good point- everyone post your time delay off of me. I know Nikoli's now and I know Blitz and Fenris are in the same time zone as me.
Give me an Electronics B/R for cracking the bug and then an Electronics for figuring out the signal to activate it. I will also need a Stealth roll for you placing the bug on a new car.
Nikoli
Feb 13 2004, 06:29 PM
If you thought I was paranoid before...
Electronics B/R: 7 3 2 2 3 (using better than needed tools) for the open test
Electronics Warfare: 2 4 4 2 11 11 for the signal location test
Electronics B/R test to put it back together: 3 4 3 4
Electronics warfare to jury-rig blocking or at least muffling the signal with the bag:
8 3 3 2 14 (sweet)
Don't have stealth, but will default to quickness
3 2 11 2 3 5
electronics test to place bug properly on random car: 4 3 17 5
Perception test going over logs and recordings:
4 13 3 5 1 5
Also, if Murrey feels he has the signal, the frequency for the activator will be in my AOD signal locator, otherwise not.
Just a note, both vehicles have a rating 9 security system with elctroshock and yes, he is paranoid enough to leave that on at night. the van is programmed to turn over every so often to recharge the battery, etc, if needed.
If it's a plot thing I totally understand.
Buddha72
Feb 13 2004, 06:55 PM
Got it - I assume it was on since you have it on the sheet, on the AOD signal locator, is it portable or built into the van? At the level you all are I assume a healthy level of paranoia/precaution.
Nikoli
Feb 13 2004, 06:57 PM
That's not helping my paranoia.
Will edit the out of sequence post to reflect some changes due to the new information. The AOD Locator is in a port on the Remote deck, so it's portable. I have added the necessary ports to it to accomodate. just look at the gear sheet, if it's moved over 2 spaces, it is plugged into the first level back.

Hey all - I just need to know what time you are shooting to arrive at the club and how. I took liberties with Blitz (ducks........guess it's safe) but don't want to step on player toes. Thanks and I hope everyone has a great V-day tomorrow.
Nikoli
Feb 14 2004, 01:09 AM
I arrived at 7 PM and setup my sensors for scanning and recording, otherwise I go in and sit at the bar, sipping coffee or soykaff if necessary.
Grey
Feb 14 2004, 03:07 AM
I'll be showing up with Immortal about 15 minutes early. I'm not going to have a lot of access to computers until I'm back at work on Tuesday, so feel free to move my character where you see fit until then. I'll try to get online at least once a day, but even that I won't be able to promise.
Fenris
Feb 14 2004, 11:44 PM
Aiming for 15-20 minutes before.
Buddha72
Feb 16 2004, 06:42 PM
Ok with everyone actually having a life over the weekend, the time bump will occur either late tonight or early tomorrow morning. Early being defined as before 11 am PST.
So if you have any business to handle before the meet at the club, this is your last chance, and I mean it this time.
Hope everyone had the day off and enjoys it.

Just to give you an idea of what Paladin's ATV looks like... It is sort of like
this picture. The main differences being that Paladin's is more enclosed (and armored) and there is a passenger seat as well.
Buddha72
Feb 17 2004, 07:19 PM
Thanks for the visual. I am waiting for Fenris to post, which he will today. Don't want to jump around too much in the timeline so it's all relatively clear.
Grey
Feb 18 2004, 01:21 AM
Digital Heroin: I'm waiting on a post from you before entering the building. I figured since we're both going in together, I'd wait to make sure you are coming along and stuff.

I thought my flattery was a little less subte than that.
Buddha72
Feb 18 2004, 05:22 PM
Ok now on to the meet and greet phase of the program. I need one last round of perceptions from you all. Fenris has told me to assume he is astrally perceiving 7/24, are there any other things people are doing all the time? Let me know. I will bump the thread late tonight or early tomorrow morning. I'm refinishing my patio today and then I have a Shadowrun game this evening.
Feel free to comment/suggest on the thread whenever. If you all aren't enjoying then I am wasting my time and I hate to waste my time.

Feb 18 2004, 08:32 PM
Blitz: You realize Astral Perception overlays standard vision, right? So you can't make seperate checks without switching back and forth?
Astral Perception: 1,5,2,5,3,5
Blitz
Feb 18 2004, 08:47 PM
Hmmm...didn't think about it from that angle. In that case, whenever Im actively perceiving (i.e. looking about) I will be switching from standard to astral and back again, however, I will not be ALWAYS looking astrally, as I don't want to advertize myself more than necessary.
if this past test was a passive glance, then just use the standard perception.
Buddha72
Feb 18 2004, 09:00 PM
Fenris/Blitz: Astral Perception does overlay normal perception, but does not preclude you from perceiving the physical. Astral perceptions simply adds a +2 modifier to any tests involving the physical world. You can decide if you'd rather take the modifier or the extra actions to shift back and forth.
Fenris

My bad!! I am always hazy on timelines and calendars. DnD damage on my part. It is early summer of 2062. I am going cannon on SURGE, the big wave hits Sept 10, 2061.
Nikoli
Feb 19 2004, 07:15 PM
Good to know. Also, any non-canon groups in your world that are publically anti-surge that the average jow would know about? If I recall the Humanis don't care for them, and I thinkt here was a church group of some kind with strong humanis ties that was pretty dead-set against them
Buddha72
Feb 19 2004, 07:17 PM
Nothing non-cannon that the avreage joe knows but I do have non-cannon things out there so feel free to flex those knowledge skills boys and girls.
