Nick,
Am I to assume you are attempting an astral quest ordeal to initiate? If so you have two options...
1. I generate the results and PM them to you so you can post IC.
2. I generate the results and post IC for you.
I would prefer to do it all on the board but that is one of the limitation to the system. It halts the story for one person for an extended period. If you have an alternative that will work offer it up.

Yes, I'm doing an Astral Quest to initiate. Feel free to post the results, keeping in mind that this is only a rating 2 quest, so it shouldn't be too difficult...

Basic tactical layout (Any specifics you need just ask.)
Apartment is roughly 10 meters square. Exterior wall faces South. The entry door sits three meters from the east wall. There are two 1 meter windows on the South wall, centered at 3 and 6 meters respectively. Outside the right (west) window is a fire escape. Typical, wrought iron, counter balanced ladder at bottom.
The only bath room sits against the East wall. It is 1.8 X 3 meters.
The bedrooms are along the West wall and all the same size; roughly 3.3 X 3.3 meters. Each has a double bed and dresser.
In the "den" is a couch and three chairs, a trid screen and an outdated entertainment system.
Across the street is an apartment much like the one you are in now. Possible firing positions there.
The hall approaching the apartment is poorly lit. Your apartment is second to last in the hall.
You spot a familiar vehicle passing by during your inspection. The sleek black sports car that passed you on the freeway.
Dawn
[ Spoiler ]
Your inspection of the mark turns up a recently healed scar on his left inner forearm. He seems to be comatose, pupils fixed and dialated. Something about his condition looks famillier. Make an intelligence(4) test please. His suit looks like it was professionally tailored, which after you go through his clothes you discover it was indeed made for him by Onouri Hasada (My 2060 version of Armani) which makes this about a five to ten thousand nuyen suit.

You find a bug hidden where only the most novice of runners would miss it. It has an on/off switch clearly marked and a note written on a piece of ribbon tied to the switch. Paranoia is a difficult thing to live with. If you had found nothing you would constantly be wondering where the ones you missed are. Please return to the place you found it when you are done. Other than that you find nothing.

Tzi... I think that Warding is fairly exclusive. That means I think I can't get into astrally percieving until i finish making my ward, which is about 5 hours. So i'll probably need a time accelerating before I can move on to my next task.
Tziluthi

Fair enough.

Can Razz help with the ward to lower the time at all?
Sicarius

I think you can help improve the force. I donno if you can lower the time.
come on over slacker.

Sorry I didn't help out earlier. I have never done any warding before and wasn't sure how it worked. I'll read up on it.
Frater Inominatus
Nov 1 2005, 11:35 AM
Unfortunately it takes as long as it takes. Though I think I'll allow you to use extra successes to reduce the time if you wish.
Sicarius
Nov 1 2005, 11:38 AM
I couldn't figure out what to roll for the ward itself. I saw the drain code in there. Is it typical sorcery?
Frater Inominatus
Nov 1 2005, 11:48 AM
No, you make a magical attribute test vs the force of the ward. A person can make a ward equal to their magic attribute, a group - the sum of their magic attributes.
Sicarius
Nov 1 2005, 12:09 PM
okay gotcha.
Mush. I set the ward at force 5 for drain purposes, although looking at my rolls i could have gone as high as 9 if i have your magic attribute rating, course F.I would have to let us sorta... backdate it. I donno if htat's cool or not. I found the whole thing a little confusing. So its probably my bad.

Sorry, could someone please explain what I need to roll?
Sicarius
Nov 2 2005, 01:29 AM
I think we need to jointly roll our Magical Attributes (mines a 6, donno about yours) against a target number of 9.
[ Spoiler ]
3, 5, 5, 10, 4, 5,
I managed to get one success, so unless we want to be doing this for the next 9 hours, I think you need to score some successes.
no pressure or anything.
Frater Inominatus
Nov 4 2005, 02:44 AM
That's correct. Each of you rolls their magic attribute dice vs 9. Successes past one reduce time.
Do you want to advance the story or are there issues to be role-played here?

If Os is going to be carrying the package do I need one or two invisibility spells?
Frater Inominatus
Nov 13 2005, 04:04 PM
That is a good question. I can't find anything in the rules about it. Unless someone else has knowledge to the contrary, I will rule that as long as "the package" is a package (READ: unconscious and being carried) he will fall under the spell cast on OS. If Os puts him down or he wakes up he will become visible.
Musashi Forever
Nov 14 2005, 12:51 AM
Ok thanks. Razz will cast one spell for Os, informing him of what will happen when he puts the package down, and then one spell for himself.
