Jessica's 3rd Luck
rolling 7d10>8!>9
= 3 Successes
Kurtis examines the medium flow strength Hallow and tries to figure out the oblation. Social skills already failed him, so he doesn't ask questions. Instead, he starts observing the location to spot if any other awakened are present and to see what they are doing.
Supernal Vision:
Well, this would be more like Unseen Spy. He doesn't want his scrutiny to be found out.
April 05, 2019 11:15AMKurtis Kerner: rolling 7d10>8!

April 05, 2019 11:16AMGM (GM): Does he find any mages? Let's roll perception. Wits + Composure = 7

Everybody sleep well?
April 05, 2019 11:27PMJessica: :P

Mage the Awakening Episode 39
April 05, 2019 11:29PMGM (GM): Well, hope everyone feels refreshed.
April 05, 2019 11:29PMJessica: oh god
April 05, 2019 11:30PMGM (GM): It's time to wake up, and Jessica, you are the only one already awake. You were awake for an hour.
As stated before, when you came over into the suite with the others, Justin was curled up stirring on his bed, while Dante and Eve were sharing the other.
April 05, 2019 11:31PMJessica: Lucas is in the bathroom
April 05, 2019 11:31PMJustin: (
thatgif)
April 05, 2019 11:31PMGM (GM): When you returned to your room, you did what you did, and then....
We need a map.
April 05, 2019 11:31PMJessica: (
map)
April 05, 2019 11:32PMGM (GM): My typing on screen is not working
when i click on the screen in requires me to hold the mouse button down to type
the text box disappears
April 05, 2019 11:33PMJessica: you click once you don't hold it
April 05, 2019 11:34PMDante: Nah its doing that to me too. A single click is not working
April 05, 2019 11:34PMJustin: Press escape.
April 05, 2019 11:34PMDante: And then?
April 05, 2019 11:34PMJustin: Clear your cache.
April 05, 2019 11:34PMDante: at which step do I delete win32
April 05, 2019 11:34PMJustin: That's the 4th step.
April 05, 2019 11:34PMDante: mkay, almost there
April 05, 2019 11:34PMJessica: after that you take a magnet...
April 05, 2019 11:35PMEve K.: did you try turning it on and back off?
April 05, 2019 11:35PMJessica: that's not a real thing
April 05, 2019 11:35PMJustin: Re-download your keyboard drivers.
April 05, 2019 11:35PMEve K.: are you using the CD player as a cup holder?
April 05, 2019 11:35PMJustin: Are you using the cup holder for CD's?
April 05, 2019 11:35PMDante: That part is crucial
April 05, 2019 11:35PMJustin: It's 2019.
Nobody uses CD's.
April 05, 2019 11:36PMDante: You mean coaster discs? All the time
April 05, 2019 11:36PMEve K.: That's why its a cup holder now
April 05, 2019 11:36PMJustin: I only purchase the finest coasters from the local cork emporium.
April 05, 2019 11:36PMJessica: i love you guys
April 05, 2019 11:37PMGM (GM): ok this is gonna drive me crazy
i need to type a lot here
April 05, 2019 11:37PMDante: Hold left mouse, then right click once
April 05, 2019 11:38PMJessica: ctr+r
April 05, 2019 11:38PMDante: Is that reload
April 05, 2019 11:38PMJessica: yes
April 05, 2019 11:39PMGM (GM): Ok
April 05, 2019 11:40PMDante: These hotel rooms have too many windows. A person is likely to get shot that way.
April 05, 2019 11:40PMEve K.: lol
April 05, 2019 11:40PMJustin: That's crazy talk.
Officer, this man is crazy. Shoot him.
April 05, 2019 11:40PMGM (GM): Jessica, you hear footsteps down the hallway coming from that direction. (red arrow)
April 05, 2019 11:40PMJessica: i'm calling the minister of public safety
April 05, 2019 11:41PMDante: Its for the best.
April 05, 2019 11:41PMJessica: do they stop at the door or something?
by the time i move to a door they'll have passed
or do i hear from like, a waaays
April 05, 2019 11:44PMGM (GM): You hear it a ways, it starts as a loud walk, but gets slower and quieter and stops at your door, like someone is trying to not wake yall up.
April 05, 2019 11:44PMJessica: specifically us. hm. checking the peep hole
April 05, 2019 11:44PMGM (GM): As you move to the door...
Fighting Style: Sniping, using On-Scope manuever. Composure + 2, using a Weatherby Mk V .460

rolling 12d10>8!>9
= 3 Successes
Window glass behind you breaks before you can really think through it, and the sound of shatter stuns you a bit. A bullet zooms by your face and goes in the following trajectory, punching a high caliber hole through the hallway door. The boom came from the window direction.
April 05, 2019 11:48PMJessica: so to be clear
it didn't hit me??
April 05, 2019 11:48PMGM (GM): It did not. It almost did.
You hear a scream on the other side of the door and a thud
April 05, 2019 11:49PMJessica: Jessica drops to the floor. "EVERYBODY WAKE UP!"
April 05, 2019 11:49PMGM (GM): Everyone wakes up from a boom and... it's initiative
April 05, 2019 11:50PMJustin: rolling d10 + 6

April 05, 2019 11:50PMJessica: rolling 1d10>8!+5

April 05, 2019 11:51PMJustin: Do initiative dice explode?
April 05, 2019 11:51PMDante: Not if you're gentle.
April 05, 2019 11:51PMEve K.: asking for a friend...
April 05, 2019 11:52PMSniper: i dont believe they do no
April 05, 2019 11:52PMJessica: wtf is going on

April 05, 2019 11:52PMKurtis Kerner: rolling 1d10+8

April 05, 2019 11:52PMDante: someone is murdering courteous night staff
April 05, 2019 11:53PMJustin: Kurtis: Night Stiff
April 05, 2019 11:53PMJessica: I don't think we wanna go there
April 05, 2019 11:54PMGM (GM): So. The initiative is: Eve, Sniper, Justin, Kurtis, Jessica, Dante
April 05, 2019 11:54PMJessica: picking up improved initiative
jesus christ i'm almost last an i was already awake
April 05, 2019 11:55PMGM (GM): You did get almost shot, naturally you'd duck and cover and drop to the floor
April 05, 2019 11:55PMDante: My init was down because.. reasons
April 05, 2019 11:55PMJessica: i'm not bitching
REASONS
April 05, 2019 11:55PMDante: :)
April 05, 2019 11:56PMEve K.: Soo Eve is awake, can I action?
April 05, 2019 11:56PMJessica: you're first
April 05, 2019 11:57PMGM (GM): Yeah, you awaken on top of Dante in your lingerie. Dante is still cool, but his skin is less blue toned. Just pale-ish.
Justin, you awaken to find them two in bed.
Eve, you can action
April 05, 2019 11:58PMEve K.: Casting entropic guard
rolling 12d10>8!

April 05, 2019 11:59PMGM (GM): 5 potency, 5 points of armor
April 06, 2019 12:00AMSniper: takes his next shot rolling 12d10>8!>9

Jessica, wood chips fly all around you, as you feel a sharp pain in your neck, as you pass out, taking 8 lethal damage.
April 06, 2019 12:03AMJessica: fucking ow
April 06, 2019 12:03AMSniper: It's Justin
April 06, 2019 12:04AMJustin: Does Justin recognize the scream?
April 06, 2019 12:04AMGM (GM): Roll wits+composure - 2 please
April 06, 2019 12:05AMJustin: rolling 4d10>8!
= 0 Successes
April 06, 2019 12:06AMGM (GM): No, as you woke up, it just kinda mixed with the gunshot. However, your Danger sense kinda lets you predict where you think the next shot will go.
You're pretty sure the next easiest target is Dante. He's looking kinda unusually sluggish.
April 06, 2019 12:07AMJustin: Justin's eyes go wide as gun shots play out. He looks at Dante and Eve in lingerie... and to the miniscule holes in the window from the gun shots. He stumbles out of the bed and goes straight for the windows, holding his hands up to the glass. Transmute Earth: Turning glass into Titanium.
April 06, 2019 12:08AMGM (GM): Oh, one correction, don't know what he knows about calibers, but the holes are huge. These are bigger holes than Kurt's guns, and the glass is shattered.
April 06, 2019 12:08AMEve K.: (and in the other room?)
April 06, 2019 12:08AMGM (GM): (he can move 15 feet per turn)
(mark the window you want to turn)
(wasnt 15 feet the default?)
April 06, 2019 12:09AMEve K.: (I think it would be helpful to know which room we are all in and if the connecting door is open?
April 06, 2019 12:09AMGM (GM): (oh no, its speed based. Speed is how many yards)
April 06, 2019 12:11AMDante: (So speed 10 would be 30 feet per turn while still acting)
April 06, 2019 12:11AMEve K.: (how do you make the person smaller?)
April 06, 2019 12:11AMJustin: Okay, repair + transmute + WP.- 2 for combination.
April 06, 2019 12:12AMGM (GM): (Justin's speed is Str +Dex + 5 = 8)
(So he can move 8 yards)
(yes, Dante. Or double if not action)
April 06, 2019 12:12AMJustin: ( 6 dice + 3 wp -2 combination = 7)
rolling 7d10>8!
= 2 Successes
April 06, 2019 12:12AMGM (GM): Jessica, when you snuck around, did you leave the connecting door open?
April 06, 2019 12:13AMJessica: left it a crack cause i didn't want reading light to wake anyone
April 06, 2019 12:13AMGM (GM): Ok. Justin, move yourself to the window you have transmuted
April 06, 2019 12:13AMJustin: Both windows.
April 06, 2019 12:14AMGM (GM): touching both with one hand each?
April 06, 2019 12:14AMDante: (Speed is not just str + dex btw. I think your size is factored in right?)
April 06, 2019 12:14AMJessica: i think so
April 06, 2019 12:14AMGM (GM): (yes, its str + dex + 5)
April 06, 2019 12:15AMJessica: size is either 4 or 5
April 06, 2019 12:15AMGM (GM): 5
April 06, 2019 12:15AMJessica: cool
April 06, 2019 12:15AMJustin: Is everyone in the right room?
April 06, 2019 12:15AMJessica: think so
i was by myself
lucas has had the three day diarhea
he's almost dead
April 06, 2019 12:15AMEve K.: (he's in one of the bathrooms)
April 06, 2019 12:16AMGM (GM): Justin runs up to the windows, puts his hands on the glass panes, and both panes begin transmuting into solid metal. It gets darker in Suite 2.
April 06, 2019 12:16AMJustin: Well
Were those windows even broken?
April 06, 2019 12:16AMGM (GM): They were not.
April 06, 2019 12:17AMJessica: do not reroll
April 06, 2019 12:17AMGM (GM): Both shots came through Jessica's window
April 06, 2019 12:17AMJessica: you got 2 successes
April 06, 2019 12:17AMJustin: I have to reroll.
April 06, 2019 12:17AMGM (GM): I'm not gonna fuck you over man
You can go to her windows
you have enough movement to make it those windows
but you can only choose 2
gotta be able to touch them
April 06, 2019 12:18AMJustin: Going to transmute the unbroken ones in the room Justin was in.
No WP.
rolling 11d10>8!

April 06, 2019 12:19AMDante: (Who needs WP when you have 7 successes)
April 06, 2019 12:19AMJessica: right?
April 06, 2019 12:19AMJustin: Chemistry!
That is vulgar as fuck.
April 06, 2019 12:19AMJessica: ((jokes on you, the building wasn't designed for that and the heavy metal blocks fall out of the wall))
April 06, 2019 12:19AMGM (GM): The result is largely the same, except these bad boys will be a lot harder to un-transmute.
paradox roll

April 06, 2019 12:20AMJustin: Do I get mitigation for using a rote?
April 06, 2019 12:21AMGM (GM): stand by
April 06, 2019 12:21AMDante: (A rote is 1 mitigation I think by default?)
April 06, 2019 12:22AMGM (GM): (ok thats a yes)
(so 1 dice!)
April 06, 2019 12:22AMJustin: rolling 1d10>8!

April 06, 2019 12:23AMGM (GM): Wallter
April 06, 2019 12:23AMEve K.: wallter
April 06, 2019 12:24AMDante: H should be a J.. shows where my head is at.
April 06, 2019 12:24AMJessica: wallejandro is my favorite
April 06, 2019 12:24AMGM (GM): Ok, so Eve went, sniper went, Justin went
April 06, 2019 12:24AMJessica: Kurtis is next
April 06, 2019 12:25AMDante: Ring ring, oh hey guys guess what I found some mana isnt that great?

April 06, 2019 12:27AMDante: (Oh shit I didnt explode)
April 06, 2019 12:27AMJessica: ((so roll your extra))
April 06, 2019 12:27AMGM (GM): You all recognize a strained violent gargle outside, it's Kurtis. Trying to call for help was his action.
April 06, 2019 12:27AMDante: rolling 1d10>8!
= 0 Successes
(so many 1s)
April 06, 2019 12:27AMJustin: rolling 1
= 1
April 06, 2019 12:28AMGM (GM): Jessica bleeds profusely. And the turn is to Dante
April 06, 2019 12:28AMJessica: I'm gonna paint this whole town red
April 06, 2019 12:28AMDante: at least the living room anyway
April 06, 2019 12:28AMJessica: give me time
and enough paradox
it'll happen
April 06, 2019 12:30AMDante: The living room is an open plan with the bedroom or its separated by doors as well?
April 06, 2019 12:30AMGM (GM): open plan
That pancake looking thing is a couch
April 06, 2019 12:37AMDante: "Shit, was that Kurtis?" Dante will roll out of bed, eyes adjusting as adrenaline pumps. He taps himself and wraps the space around him. (impromptu untouchable)
rolling 7d10>8!
= 3 Successes
April 06, 2019 12:37AMJustin: "I don't know, I think maybe. You guys were having -sex- while I was in the room!?"
April 06, 2019 12:37AMGM (GM): 4 armor, 3 potency, am I correct?
April 06, 2019 12:37AMDante: "You were asleep.. now is not the time."
(yes)
April 06, 2019 12:38AMGM (GM): Space folds over on itself around Dante
April 06, 2019 12:38AMJustin: "Ugh."
April 06, 2019 12:38AMDante: Dante will move toward the hallway. (Can I go through the door or does that require an action?)
April 06, 2019 12:38AMJessica: ((it's good for spell casting))
April 06, 2019 12:38AMGM (GM): You can get to it. Opening it is another action
April 06, 2019 12:39AMJessica: ((sympathetic connections yo)
April 06, 2019 12:39AMGM (GM): ((I agree, we should all have sex))
((sense8 style))
((Diana does it im sure))
April 06, 2019 12:39AMEve K.: ((Justin would never agree))
April 06, 2019 12:39AMDante: ( I guess thats my turn. I'm at a loss here. )
April 06, 2019 12:39AMJustin: ((Game got real weird real quick.))
April 06, 2019 12:40AMGM (GM): ((Self defenses, good turn. Preventing immediate further damage))
And it's to Eve
April 06, 2019 12:40AMDante: (while everyone dies)
April 06, 2019 12:42AMEve K.: "I'm going to check the other room"
April 06, 2019 12:42AMJustin: "Good call."
April 06, 2019 12:43AMJessica: ((pokemon emergency beeps))
Eve K. moves to the adjoining door, opening cautiously, is there any of the windows glass left?
April 06, 2019 12:43AMJustin: ((fcking lol))
April 06, 2019 12:44AMGM (GM): The two shots were placed through the same window. That window is pretty much destroyed from impact of the high caliber. It'sa .470
The other window is in tact
April 06, 2019 12:44AMEve K.: ((Do I still have enough turn to transmute solid on the intact window?))
April 06, 2019 12:45AMGM (GM): (yeah
(How much matter do you have?
April 06, 2019 12:46AMEve K.: ((3, I have the rote for it))
rolling 10d10>8!
= 4 Successes
April 06, 2019 12:48AMGM (GM): The intact window glass transmutes into what?
April 06, 2019 12:48AMEve K.: Titinaum
April 06, 2019 12:48AMGM (GM): ((You don't say, Tittynaum indeed.))
Practically nude, Eve gives the sniper a bit of a shadow before he can take his next shot, and the window closes with solid titanium.
April 06, 2019 12:49AMEve K.: *Show even
April 06, 2019 12:49AMSniper: *show
April 06, 2019 12:49AMJustin: *show
April 06, 2019 12:49AMDante: *show
April 06, 2019 12:49AMSniper: *thanks autocorrect
April 06, 2019 12:49AMJessica: XD
April 06, 2019 12:50AMEve K.: ((OH do I see Jessica is down?))
April 06, 2019 12:50AMSniper: Sniper was in fact going to shoot Dante next turn, but seeing the windows sealed, he moves his scope over back to the other window. Jessica, he assumes is dead as she's not moving and bleeding out, so as soon as Eve steps in to armor the other window, he immediately fires.
A nice dramatic effect as Eve can see the flash on the roof top of the building across the road and the bullet whizzing towards her, and the transmutation wave ripples through the glass, sealing it almost right at the point of impact, so you can see the bullet through the shrinking glass point, until it's all solid metal, and the bullet impacts. Late by a nanosecond.
CLANG! - you hear.
The sniper now has to relocate. He has to use the remaining glass window to find more targets
April 06, 2019 12:53AMGM (GM): Justin!
Eve, yes, you see Jessica bleeding out btw
she is in a puddle of blood
April 06, 2019 12:53AMDante: (needs windows but knew Kurtis' exact position through at least one wall?)
April 06, 2019 12:53AMEve K.: "Justin! Jessica is Bleeding out!"
April 06, 2019 12:53AMJessica: ((can see through walls doesn't mean can shoot through them))
April 06, 2019 12:53AMGM (GM): (yes, he cant penetrate titanium)
April 06, 2019 12:55AMJustin: *Justin starts running over to the door at Eve's words, stopping for just a second as he tries to get past her through the doorway. He isn't immune to the lingerie and does his best to keep his eyes mostly looking for Jess in the other room.
He grabs Jess and drags her body back behind the cover of the steel window before channeling his little remaining quintessence into her form.*
rolling 9d10>8!
= 5 Successes
April 06, 2019 12:57AMDante: (now's the time for rolls like this, damn)
April 06, 2019 12:57AMEve K.: ((
starts humming Under pressure by Queen/Bowie for inspiration))
April 06, 2019 12:57AMGM (GM): Jessica, you're up. Justin's hands is the first thing you feel. You're clear for 5 lethal, so you have 3 lethal remaining
April 06, 2019 12:58AMJessica: ((I've had Some Nights in my head for this session))
April 06, 2019 12:58AMGM (GM): and 1 bashing
April 06, 2019 12:58AMDante: (dun-dun-dun-dununun)
April 06, 2019 12:58AMEve K.: (XD))
April 06, 2019 12:58AMGM (GM): ((Jessica almost died just now. If that bashing converted))
((she took a persistant bashing earlier))
April 06, 2019 12:59AMJustin: Justin moves his bloodied hands away from Jess's neck as he directs the cells to stitch themselves back together. He's shaking from the adrenaline. April 06, 2019 12:59AMDante: (If you could just not roll 8 successes again that would be great)
April 06, 2019 12:59AMGM (GM): (1 good sniper can really fuck a day up)
April 06, 2019 12:59AMJustin: "Dante! Make sure Kurt is okay!"
April 06, 2019 12:59AMJessica: Jessica's eyes are glassy like a beached fish as Justin drags her across the room, leaving a wide red smear in the carpet. As he pours quintessence into her body she sucks in air like someone who's jumped into cold water for extra xp
April 06, 2019 12:59AMJustin: "Jess was inches from death!"
"Hey hey, you okay?'
April 06, 2019 1:00AMJessica: Her hand goes to her neck wound. "Oh my god. Oh my god."
April 06, 2019 1:00AMGM (GM): Another gargle from the hallway, and it's Jessica's turn
April 06, 2019 1:01AMJustin: "It's going to be fine. We have a sniper trying to get us but we'll figure a way out."
April 06, 2019 1:02AMEve K.: "We always do"
April 06, 2019 1:03AMJessica: "He shot someone in the hallway first." ((so question))
((nvm i need to see the guy))
"I can hex him but I need to see him." She thinks about when she tried to use a faerie as a drone. Maybe she could move her line of sight. ((I'mma use Angle Vision and try to get a bead on the sniper))
rolling 3d10>8!
= 0 Successes
damn
April 06, 2019 1:06AMGM (GM): Nope. It's dark out there, and this guy knows what he's doing. It's a veteran
April 06, 2019 1:06AMJessica: Dante's turn
April 06, 2019 1:06AMGM (GM): Yup, Dante
April 06, 2019 1:07AMDante: Dante will open the door to the hallway and have a peek right and left, more alert now as he has no idea what to expect.
April 06, 2019 1:09AMGM (GM): Other hotel guests are still getting out of their beds, unsure if it was gunfire, or something else. Sounds of people scrambling, but the alarm has not yet raised and the cavalry aint coming yet.
On the floor lays Kurt with multiple wounds, in a pool of blood, squeezing a big ass torn hole in his throat with both hands, his eyes are rolling up, he can't recognize anyone or anything, convulsing in a pre-fatal stage.
April 06, 2019 1:10AMEve K.: ((Blood! Blood! Blood!))
April 06, 2019 1:11AMDante: Dante calls back urgently, "He's hit, real fuckin' bad! I don't know if he'll make it!" and then hurries out into the hall, keeping clear of the doorway of the adjacent room. (cant do anything else since I opened the door can I)
April 06, 2019 1:12AMGM (GM): (You can cast something)
(You didn't move that much)
April 06, 2019 1:13AMJessica: ((blood to armor))
April 06, 2019 1:13AMDante: (lol)
(are there people already in the hall?)
April 06, 2019 1:13AMEve K.: ((Was I supposed to roll Paradox for the window?))
April 06, 2019 1:14AMGM (GM): (yes, 1 dice)
rolling 1d10>8
= 0 Successes
(you're good)
April 06, 2019 1:14AMJustin: "Take control of him, control his breathing. I just need you to keep him alive for a few more seconds."
Justin is already staring at the door, imaging what is on the other side.
Eve K. 's voice goes icy "I'll handle the sniper, save Kurtis"
April 06, 2019 1:16AMGM (GM): (there are no people in the hall yet. you can just hear them getting up and moving in the rooms, you guys were faster than anyone else)
April 06, 2019 1:20AMDante: "I'll buy as much time as I can. Kurt don't you fucking die!" Dante drags Kurtis away from the doorway and extends his will, reaching out to Kurt's mind to try communicate with him telepathically. (Can't do any kind of control, no mana)
April 06, 2019 1:20AMJessica: ((do you need mana if it's consentual?))
April 06, 2019 1:21AMDante: (It requires mana to cast telepathic control, or possession.)
April 06, 2019 1:22AMGM (GM): You do what you can, but he's not consenting nor receiving, the man in your hands is fighting for his life, reduced to animal instincts and not much else. He spent the last of his effort gargle-calling out to yall. His hands weaken and his throat bleeds free.
April 06, 2019 1:23AMDante: Dante will at least try to staunch the bleeding at his neck. Is there any kind of medicine roll I can try to slow it or buy time?
April 06, 2019 1:23AMGM (GM): yeah you can tear some of his clothes and try to stop the bleed with a bandage
i'd say dex+medicine
April 06, 2019 1:24AMDante: rolling 4d10>8!
= 5 Successes
(what.)
April 06, 2019 1:24AMGM (GM): ooooh kay.
April 06, 2019 1:24AMJustin: ((fuk))
April 06, 2019 1:25AMGM (GM): yeah, you manage to... stop most of the bleeding. Kurt passes out. That's your turn.
April 06, 2019 1:25AMJessica: ((dramatically rips off Kurt's shirt))
April 06, 2019 1:25AMEve K.: ((Hawt))
April 06, 2019 1:25AMGM (GM): Yeah, Kurt doesnt have much left of his clothes
April 06, 2019 1:25AMJessica: ((with his teeth))
April 06, 2019 1:25AMDante: (and his own shirt. There's a lot of blood)
April 06, 2019 1:25AMJessica: ((yay mage orgy))
((blood to lube))
April 06, 2019 1:25AMGM (GM): (and your medicine is like 1, this is all Dante-epic-passion)
April 06, 2019 1:25AMEve K.: (Dante sleeps in a shirt?)
April 06, 2019 1:25AMDante: (Yes. Med 1. With scoured dex)
April 06, 2019 1:26AMGM (GM): ((Jess is real horny XD ))
April 06, 2019 1:26AMJustin: ((Blood orgy!))
April 06, 2019 1:26AMDante: (No he wouldn't be in a shirt now. Just memes)
April 06, 2019 1:26AMEve K.: (XD)
April 06, 2019 1:26AMGM (GM): ((yeah what the fuck dice))
Aaaand it's to Eve
April 06, 2019 1:26AMJessica: ((you don't get to kill kurt tonight))
April 06, 2019 1:26AMDante: (Right now he'd be in his boxers)
(Yeah fuck off, no killing Kurt)
April 06, 2019 1:27AMEve K.: (Do I have sensory range on the sniper if I move to the broken window?)
April 06, 2019 1:27AMGM (GM): (I didnt kill kurt, the bad guys killed kurt)
April 06, 2019 1:27AMJessica: ((stahp))
April 06, 2019 1:27AMDante: (who are they played by HMMMM)
April 06, 2019 1:27AMGM (GM): (dice
(Eve, roll wits+composure)
April 06, 2019 1:28AMEve K.: rolling 7d10>8!
= 3 Successes
April 06, 2019 1:29AMGM (GM): Your experience in CSI is carrying you out here. You can't see the guy. But you deduce the only place he could be right now. Waiting and watching for someone to pop into view. You can't see him, but you know where he is. (dot marked on map)
It's one of those things, he is waiting for you to pop out, and if you pop out, you will see the rifle, he will see you.
He's in concealment, prone, and has cover
If you MOVE to the broken window, you can see the spot where you know he is
but because its night time, your human eyes cant discern his shape
Eve K. takes a deep breath and steps to the window, once she can see him she will summon shadows on top of him
April 06, 2019 1:32AMJessica: ((my special eyes))
Eve K. 's eyes bleed to black as she mutters in atlantian "I will wrap you in darkness as black as your heart"
April 06, 2019 1:33AMEve K.: burning a willpower
rolling 15d10>8!
= 4 Successes
April 06, 2019 1:34AMGM (GM): Well if it wasnt dark enough there before, it is now. Shadows envelope the roof of the adjacent building, providing a barrier.
April 06, 2019 1:35AMEve K.: (putting 3 in strength 1 in durability, on the shadows turn?? they will try to pull the rifle away from him)
April 06, 2019 1:35AMDante: oooo
April 06, 2019 1:35AMGM (GM): (does the shadow move when you move?)
(or will it go last?)
April 06, 2019 1:36AMEve K.: (probably last, it doesn't have a mind after all, it does as she wills)
April 06, 2019 1:36AMGM (GM): Okay.
Anything else?
that's pretty much it. you moved and casted? but you can move some more
like 10 yards
wait no
Eve K. moves back behind the titanium window
April 06, 2019 1:37AMGM (GM): yeah, like 8 yards
you have speed 10
April 06, 2019 1:38AMGM (GM): does
Eve K. is behind safe window
April 06, 2019 1:39AMSniper: Well, sniper is unable to fire, and suddenly shadow bullshit is happening, it makes him quite uncomfortable, so he takes his losses and books it. Through the Shadows enveloping him if you can see that he is blonde and fairly spry, that's about it.
He stands up and runs off.
April 06, 2019 1:40AMDante: (Kurtis' twin brother, Kurkis)
April 06, 2019 1:40AMJessica: ((Turkis))
April 06, 2019 1:40AMDante: (perfect)
April 06, 2019 1:40AMJustin: ((Kernrad Knerner.))
April 06, 2019 1:41AMEve K.: (umm... Can my shadows try to stop him?)
(Eve is very not done with this bad man)
April 06, 2019 1:41AMGM (GM): (they will reflexively pursue the rifle or him)
April 06, 2019 1:41AMEve K.: (kk))
April 06, 2019 1:41AMGM (GM): ((Right now they would be holding onto the rifle, but they will try to stop him)
And it's to Justin
April 06, 2019 1:42AMEve K.: (also I think I missed the Paradox roll for shadows)
April 06, 2019 1:42AMGM (GM): shadows on a building at night up above, even if sleepers on the street, nobody will care
April 06, 2019 1:42AMEve K.: (or is it mitigated due to rote?)
April 06, 2019 1:42AMGM (GM): 1 dice
rolling 1d10>8
= 1 Success
GM rolls paradox
April 06, 2019 1:43AMJessica: she has rote though
April 06, 2019 1:43AMGM (GM): yes she does
April 06, 2019 1:43AMDante: (base 2)
April 06, 2019 1:43AMJessica: ahhhh
April 06, 2019 1:43AMEve K.: (Eve only rolls 1 dice, ever gnosis is 2)
April 06, 2019 1:43AMDante: (oh, I thought she was higher)
April 06, 2019 1:43AMGM (GM): you cant mitigate to 0 though
its at least 1 minimum
April 06, 2019 1:43AMEve K.: (Ah)
April 06, 2019 1:43AMDante: (give paradox a chance...die)
April 06, 2019 1:43AMGM (GM): so like, either let it go havoc or absorb it
April 06, 2019 1:44AMEve K.: (absorb it, like a responsible mage)
April 06, 2019 1:44AMGM (GM): 1 bashing for 15 minutes, unhealable
April 06, 2019 1:44AMJustin: (hehe)
April 06, 2019 1:44AMGM (GM): now its Justinator
April 06, 2019 1:45AMDante: "I staunched his throat, but he lost consciousness. Hurry up!"
April 06, 2019 1:45AMEve K.: "Sniper is trying to run. I've got this, heal Kurtis"
April 06, 2019 1:45AMJustin: *Justin books it out the door and into the hallway, he takes one look at Kurtis and kneels down next to Dante. He draws on quintessence that isn't there, and in a panic draws deeper.
His nerves overload and die as he sucks the life out of them, harvesting them for the mana he needs to save Kurt's life.*
((Scouring pattern. Killing 1 Dex for 3 mana.))
April 06, 2019 1:46AMGM (GM): You guys see Justin go pale and tense.
Dante, you seem to understand what he just did.
Justin you make it like, barely in time. From shock and pain he near drew his last breath. You truly saved the guy.
April 06, 2019 1:47AMJustin: Healing heart
rolling 9d10>8!
= 2 Successes
April 06, 2019 1:47AMJessica: #Justincarry
April 06, 2019 1:47AMDante: #Justincarry
April 06, 2019 1:47AMKurtis Kerner: gasps hard, starved for air as his throat mends and the body begins to do work, jolted by quintessence "Hhhhhuuuuuuu! Uuuuuuuuh!" - sucks air in like a pump
he's all gargly and bloodied, but his heart resumed beating on its very last beat
April 06, 2019 1:49AMJustin: Justin is pale, his fingers are twitching as he grabs Kurt's jaw and tilts his head back and forth, looking into his eyes to make sure that cognitive function has returned.
"You're okay. you're okay."
He seems to be talking to himself just as much as Kurtis.
April 06, 2019 1:49AMKurtis Kerner: he's trying to talk, really actively and emotionally, but blood spurts out April 06, 2019 1:49AMJessica: #Justis
April 06, 2019 1:49AMKurtis Kerner: his voice box is shot "Brrraaaghhhh braaarrg waaaa"
vague hand motions, dulled eyes
April 06, 2019 1:50AMJustin: Justin grits his teeth and pumps more mana into Kurtis. rolling 9d10>8!
= 2 Successes
April 06, 2019 1:50AMDante: "Its alright now.. let Justin take care of you." Dante puts his other hand on Kurt's shoulder and tries to calm him gently. (emotional urging)
rolling 8d10>8!
= 2 Successes
April 06, 2019 1:52AMGM (GM): Hang on, let me make a check to see if we're out of initiative. If sniper pries himself of the shadows, he escapes and we can act, if not, Justin's second heal has to wait
April 06, 2019 1:52AMJustin: ((gotcha.))
April 06, 2019 1:52AMDante: (yeah kinda just took you saying he fucked off as end. disregard if not)
April 06, 2019 1:52AMJustin: ((Eve tastes blood.))
April 06, 2019 1:52AMGM (GM): Eve, care to roll a strength 3 check for your shadow?
April 06, 2019 1:53AMDante: (dissolve him into deathy goop)
April 06, 2019 1:53AMJessica: ((shoot him with his own gun))
April 06, 2019 1:53AMEve K.: rolling 3d10>8!
= 0 Successes
(Fuuuu))
April 06, 2019 1:53AMDante: (Its ok. We'll just have to kill every blond stranger we come across to be sure)
April 06, 2019 1:54AMJessica: ((i have an idea))
April 06, 2019 1:54AMSniper: has strength 3, he has to, to wield that big ass rifle, and brawl 1 rolling 4d10>8!
= 1 Success
Ok, he barely breaks out, and sees further attack as unfeasable. While she Shadow did not overpower him, it's still a solid shadow and envelopes the area.
April 06, 2019 1:55AMEve K.: (So he gets away or we are still in rounds)
April 06, 2019 1:56AMGM (GM): He gets away, we're in free rp
Eve K. begins to curse profusely "Fucking hell, that fucking piece of shit got away! Damn it!
April 06, 2019 1:56AMJessica: "Can we use the bullets to track him? Do bullets have connections to their guns?"
April 06, 2019 1:56AMEve K.: "Try it, I'm checking on Kurtis"
April 06, 2019 1:56AMKurtis Kerner: calms, aided by both Justin and Dante, but as soon as his voice heals, as soon as he can rasply whisper anything but a gurgle, he exclaims, grabbing hold of Dante's sleeve and pointing to the hole in the door, from which the shots came Eve K. moves her shadows to cover the remaining window as she rushes to the hallway
April 06, 2019 1:57AMKurtis Kerner: "There's a motherfucker running around there looking like me!"
April 06, 2019 1:57AMDante: (Turkis!)
April 06, 2019 1:57AMEve K.: (XD)
April 06, 2019 1:57AMJessica: (Turkis!)
April 06, 2019 1:57AMKurtis Kerner: "He doesn't know you saved me! You gotta hide me. So he stays in my shape!"
Eve K. steps out into the hallway, she looks furious, murderous, and quite fetching in lingerie
April 06, 2019 1:59AMDante: "I could make you less noticeable, but that won't stop people identifying you. We should probably get out of the hal -" Dante stops and looks up as Eve steps out, gaze lingering a moment. "Out of the hallway."
April 06, 2019 1:59AMJustin: Justin moves away from Kurtis and leans back against the wall, breathing hard as his heart thunders in his chest. April 06, 2019 1:59AMJessica: ((none of the rotes look like what i want to try to do with the bullet unless i'm missing something))
April 06, 2019 1:59AMGM (GM): This is when people are starting to come out, scream, panic, call 911, etc. We're gonna have cavalry on us and doctors bugging us. It's good and bad? It's cover, crowd, but also, attention.
April 06, 2019 2:00AMKurtis Kerner: "J.... Justin.... did... did you just.... save my life?"
April 06, 2019 2:01AMEve K.: "Get in the rooms, we need to move, Sniper fucking slipped my shadows, he's running. If we can track him we should try to catch him, especially if he's playing at being Kurtis"
April 06, 2019 2:01AMDante: "He brought you and Jessica both back from the brink. A godsend, that kid."
Dante shifts back onto his heels, then moves to help Kurtis back into the room. April 06, 2019 2:02AMJessica: ((so custom rote for using a piece of something to find the rest?))
April 06, 2019 2:02AMKurtis Kerner: accepts help and holds out a long pause, something going through his mind "Damn. Fuck that guy!"
April 06, 2019 2:02AMJustin: Justin gives Kurt a smile and starts to stand. He stops after an unsteady start and uses the wall to help him up. He seems markedly less coordinated as he makes his way into the room. April 06, 2019 2:02AMEve K.: "Excellent work Justin, you are simply amazing. Thank you."
April 06, 2019 2:03AMGM (GM): Jessica, ok, you wanna try to track the fate of a bullet.
Eve K. helps with getting people inside, shuts and locks the door behind them
April 06, 2019 2:04AMJessica: As they all regroup in the room, Jessica grabs Justin's wrist. "Thank you." She touches the much smaller wound in her neck and looks around the floor for the bullet.
April 06, 2019 2:05AMJustin: Justin looks at Jessica and nods. "It's fine." He moves to the door and starts working some magic into it, repairing the damage that was there before.*
Justin is going to repair object on the door, the window, and the carpet.
Make it look like nothing happened in here.
April 06, 2019 2:05AMJessica: leave the blood
April 06, 2019 2:05AMGM (GM): Jessica, you find the bloodied bullet, and as you do so, you attempt to think on its past. Your face stings with a familiar burn, and a rune activates before your eyes, the floating musical note, Distant Melody.
You have learned Postcognition (Time 2)
April 06, 2019 2:05AMDante: Following Eve's lead, Dante will hurry to the adjacent room's door and lock it as well. April 06, 2019 2:06AMGM (GM): You can fire off the tattoo's power and trace the bullet's past with perfect clarity
April 06, 2019 2:06AMJessica: But not find where the gun is currently
April 06, 2019 2:06AMGM (GM): Not until you see the gun
You havent ever seen the rifle, unless you experience the vision
The rote is Int + Investigation + Time
April 06, 2019 2:08AMJessica: Jessica tries to avoid the puddle of her own blood on the floor as she kneels to retrieve the bullet. The musical note appears before her, and she starts to hum and sing a little under her breath. "Some nights I wake up...cashing in my bad luck..."
April 06, 2019 2:08AMGM (GM): Justin, roll your repairs
April 06, 2019 2:08AMJustin: rolling 5d10>8!

April 06, 2019 2:08AMGM (GM): what the fuck is that roll
April 06, 2019 2:09AMDante: (Holy 10s)
April 06, 2019 2:09AMJustin: ((I don't fucking know))
((fuck))

April 06, 2019 2:09AMDante: (Justin sucked up all the luck.)
April 06, 2019 2:09AMJustin: ((That was the blood roll though.))
April 06, 2019 2:09AMJessica: ((damn, justin stole the good dice))
April 06, 2019 2:10AMGM (GM): Jess, you can't tell this bullet's past. But there is another bullet. On Kurtis.
Your tattoo extinguishes, but you feel like you can repeat this effect with your own mind, although impromptu
with just gnosis + time
April 06, 2019 2:11AMJessica: "
Some nights I call it a draw..." At a normal volume: "Kurtis, I need your bullet. This one's a dud."
April 06, 2019 2:11AMKurtis Kerner: looks around a bit confused, and then plucks it from under his torn shirt and hands it over April 06, 2019 2:12AMGM (GM): Justin, the doors look better than when they were installed.
April 06, 2019 2:12AMJessica: rolling 4d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 06, 2019 2:12AMDante: "Pass me that first bullet."
Dante says suddenly and approaches, hand extended. April 06, 2019 2:13AMJessica: Jessica hands it over absently. She seems very focused on the new bullet
April 06, 2019 2:13AMGM (GM): People start looking at you though, Justin. Like, there's a person hurt and you're repairing the doors.
"Wow, that's some fast maintenance service!"
April 06, 2019 2:13AMJessica: ((isn't he doing it from inside?))
April 06, 2019 2:13AMJustin: ((Si, was supposed to be doors, blood, window.))
Eve K. watches Jessica and Kurtis in turns, before her gaze flicks to Dante at his request
April 06, 2019 2:13AMGM (GM): ((probably, but if he's smart, he's making it look mundane, otherwise it would freak people out))
April 06, 2019 2:13AMJustin: ((Word))
April 06, 2019 2:14AMGM (GM): ((I'm assuming he goes through the motions and pretends to like, align chips and wave his hand like he's straightening things out, or like, carries a hammer and just bangs on shit))
April 06, 2019 2:14AMJustin: ((Yeah, grabs the door and wiggles it around a bit.))
April 06, 2019 2:14AMGM (GM): ((it would be a Forester 101 kind of lesson, carry props))
Oh btw, Justin, you go to check your backpack, and your Gates Book is missing
April 06, 2019 2:15AMDante: (Would it be possible to analyze the sympathetic connections of the bullet via Correspondence?)
April 06, 2019 2:15AMGM (GM): (yes, hold on)
April 06, 2019 2:16AMJessica: "
Some nights, I wish that my lips could build a castle..." April 06, 2019 2:16AMJustin: "Guys, I think we were robbed.."
Justin is searching through his pants pockets.
April 06, 2019 2:17AMEve K.: "What's missing?"
April 06, 2019 2:17AMJustin: "Book."
April 06, 2019 2:17AMGM (GM): Jessica, you witness the bullet loaded into a distinct looking hunting rifle by a man resembling Kurtis Kerner perfectly, except for the clothing, he wears a warm sweater and a pair of black jeans, military boots on his feet. He has what you would describe as a monocle, but it's all modern and tactical, and bulkier, attaching onto his ear, some kind of scanner. He loads the bullet, tracks something through the hotel hallway, and fires. You now have an idea on the man and the rifle.
April 06, 2019 2:17AMJessica: The book is on Jess' bed next to a notepad with a drawing of the Silver Ladder insignia on the top page when you get back in the room. Like it was forgotten there.
April 06, 2019 2:18AMGM (GM): The book on Jess's bed now looks different. Acanthus symbols are on its cover.
Ok, Dante, yes.
You can analyze the sympathetic connections on the bullet via correspondence
Eve K. frowns "I think it's here next to Jessica's bed."
April 06, 2019 2:19AMDante: Dante will do the thing.

April 06, 2019 2:19AMJustin: Justin frowns at that. "Jess did you steal my book? You could have just asked..."
April 06, 2019 2:19AMJessica: Jess kind of blinks back to the present and stops singing and looking at the bullet. "The guy that looks like Kurtis is in a sweater and jeans. He's got a... monocle on? I didn't steal it. I was just reading it. It was on the floor."
April 06, 2019 2:19AMJustin: "It wasn't on the floor."
April 06, 2019 2:20AMJustin: "It was in my pocket."
April 06, 2019 2:20AMJessica: "Well it was on the floor when I found it."
April 06, 2019 2:20AMGM (GM): Dante, this bullet was touched by the shooter exactly once, when it was loaded into the magazine. Thus, it will provide a -6 bonus for sympathetic casting
April 06, 2019 2:20AMEve K.: "I doubt he would leave it out like that. But we can discuss it later, find the sniper."
April 06, 2019 2:21AMJessica: "I didn't--fine."
Eve K. goes to get dressed
April 06, 2019 2:21AMJustin: "Kurtis, do you remember meeting anyone weird? He's not wearing anyone else's face so I assume that he met you."
April 06, 2019 2:21AMDante: "I think.. I can try. Do we have any other details we can use to make it easier to track him?"
Dante leans against the wall now, his eyes fixed on the bullet. A glance at Eve as she passes. April 06, 2019 2:22AMJessica: "His rifle was big? Hunting rifle?"
Eve K. smiles at Dante despite her clearly focused mood as she passes to get her cloths
April 06, 2019 2:23AMKurtis Kerner: "Guys... guys... hold up. We can't follow anyone. I'm still hurt. I'm out of mana... and yeah, I was followed... and... I think... I think I lost, man! I think I lost."
April 06, 2019 2:23AMJessica: "I thought you could pull mana out of things."
April 06, 2019 2:23AMJustin: Justin frowns at Kurtis. Eve K. from the other room "Kurtis a sniper is running around with your face on. You are already wanted by the German police in Berlin, we don't need to add more to that.
April 06, 2019 2:24AMJessica: "Yeah fuck that guy."
April 06, 2019 2:24AMJustin: Life sight on Kurtis.
rolling 7d10>8!

April 06, 2019 2:24AMKurtis Kerner: "Oh shit, right! Yeah, this Hallow I found is crazy. I think that's where they caught up with me. I took a few out, but had to run. Anyways, it's a local amusement park, it's closed, but there's a ferris wheel. We have to ride the wheel to recharge."
April 06, 2019 2:24AMJustin: Any active life magic on him?
April 06, 2019 2:25AMJessica: "Dante can you look in my mind? Would it help if you saw what I saw?"
April 06, 2019 2:26AMDante: Dante extends his arm at the elbow and opens his palm with the bullet in its center, then clenches it tightly in his balled fist. At hearing his name he looks up sharply as if drawn back to the conversation. "If you can share the images of what you saw when you inspected the bullet, maybe. I don't know for sure. Let us try."
April 06, 2019 2:26AMGM (GM): Justin, other than your healing spells' residual effect, you don't see any active life spells
April 06, 2019 2:26AMJessica: ((Finder would do it if Dante knows what he's looking for I think))
((at space 2 it doesn't have to be in sensory range))
April 06, 2019 2:27AMJustin: Justin nods to himself after the assessment. He looks around the room at the other party members. April 06, 2019 2:27AMJessica: ((i only have space 1))
Eve K. comes back to the Suite 1 wearing a black leather skirt and white corset style top, she walks over towards Justin and Kurtis "How is he?"
April 06, 2019 2:28AMDante: ((Finder could work. I dont know if it works with people, but maybe the rifle yeah. Can also scry on the guy based on the sympathetic connection. Either way, Telepathy on Jessica so she can relay what she saw to him.))

April 06, 2019 2:28AMJustin: "He's fine. Might be in a little bit of shock after what he went through."
Eve K. nods, and then to Kurtis "What did you mean by you lost Kurt?"
April 06, 2019 2:30AMJessica: Through Jessica's mind's eye Dante watches the bullet go backwards into the gun and back out to just before it was loaded. Time, backwards, vibrates like a song. Maybe it's just synethasia, or a quirk of the way Jessica cast the spell
((do you want me to copy/paste what he posted?))
April 06, 2019 2:32AMDante: ((If you want, but I'm more curious if this will affect the sympathy at all))
April 06, 2019 2:32AMJessica: *synesthesia
Finder doesn't need sympathy
April 06, 2019 2:33AMDante: ((Hmm.. I guess it doesn't say as much, yeah.))
April 06, 2019 2:34AMJessica: ((we're just gonna track the object itself instead of its sympathetic connection since you know what it looks like now))
((might be better to track the sweatshirt since he can ditch the gun?))
April 06, 2019 2:35AMKurtis Kerner: "I... let's see, I was in the city, found the place where we can charge, figured it all out, then headed back, and i thought i saw someone out the corner of my eye, but didn't see exactly. And then... I saw someone on the roof, wearing my face. I tried to run quietly and not stir a ruckus, hoping to hide, wake you guys up, and then I think.... I think... the door exploded, and I got shot?"
April 06, 2019 2:35AMDante: Jessica, you hear in your head a simple 'thank you' as the telepathic connection dissipates.
April 06, 2019 2:36AMJessica: ((yay teamwork))
April 06, 2019 2:36AMDante: ((Gun seems like a pretty important resource to me, if this is this guy's profession. Don't know why he wouldn't ditch a sweatshirt.))
April 06, 2019 2:36AMKurtis Kerner: Dante, you gain familiarity with the shooter and the gun, reducing the penalty further to -4
April 06, 2019 2:37AMJessica: ((he'd have to put the gun down to shuk it off and he's running. I mean either way, if we get the gun it's loot)
((We switched tacks, we're not doing correspondence))
((Finder works better for this))
April 06, 2019 2:38AMKurtis Kerner: ((Finder is a hippie spell from not my book. How does it work?))
April 06, 2019 2:38AMDante: ((Can't do it right now anyway. No mana.))
((Finder is a core rote))
April 06, 2019 2:38AMGM (GM): ((Nevermind))
April 06, 2019 2:38AMDante: ((Its in the book))
April 06, 2019 2:38AMGM (GM): ((found it))
April 06, 2019 2:38AMDante: ((Have to have mana for sympathetic casting, which Finder still is in this way))
April 06, 2019 2:39AMEve K.: "Ahh, I see. Well, it was a fucking amazing shot by a professional sniper through a door so I wouldn't count that as "losing"."
April 06, 2019 2:39AMJessica: ((are you sure? the description doesn't make it seem so))
April 06, 2019 2:39AMDante: ((While this effect applies only within a mage’s sensory range, with Space 2 she can cast this as a sympathetic spell and track the item anywhere. ))
((finder rote description))
April 06, 2019 2:40AMKurtis Kerner: "Ugh, fuck him. We should go to the hallow... oblate, finish healing up, and... and.... go from there."
April 06, 2019 2:40AMJessica: ((ah i missed that i'm dumb))
April 06, 2019 2:40AMDante: ((I do it all the time. The way the pages are laid out does that to me))
April 06, 2019 2:40AMJessica: "You want to ride a ferris wheel? I might be able to give you mana. Can't you move mana around though Kurtis?"
April 06, 2019 2:41AMKurtis Kerner: (("To cast a sympathetic spell, the mage must have at least 2
dots in Space and a Mana point must be spent.")) page 114
April 06, 2019 2:41AMDante: "I'm really not comfortable leaving this guy around. But we do need to replenish. I can track whatever he has on him in part thanks to Jessica, so we can do so after."
Dante finally unclenches his fist and looks down, realizing he's still in his boxers. "First I'm getting dressed."
April 06, 2019 2:42AMKurtis Kerner: "Not from a living person. No."
April 06, 2019 2:42AMJessica: "Well let's oblate then I guess." She huffs. "Holy shit."
She collects Justin's book off the bed. "I really did find it on the floor. Here."
Eve K. sighs more to let out tension than anything else, watching as Dante leaves the room "Fine, lets get ready to go"
April 06, 2019 2:44AMJustin: Justin takes the book and look sat the symbols. April 06, 2019 2:44AMDante: *Dante moves to the heap of clothing at his bedside and haphazardly dresses himself, checking his pockets and belongings before straightening out the wrinkles and creases. He tucks the bullet inside another pocket and runs his hands through his hair, pulling it back into a queue.
"The less time we spend here the better as well."
April 06, 2019 2:44AMJessica: Down the spine are silver symbols matching Jessica's tattoos, and the cover is adorned with a silver thistle
April 06, 2019 2:45AMDante: "If we leave through the window we can slip out to the van. But with us being tracked like this, we should also scan the van." (Has anything happened to the van's ward?)
April 06, 2019 2:46AMEve K.: (lol what story are we on?)
April 06, 2019 2:46AMJustin: (Gem of Kings arc.)
April 06, 2019 2:46AMJessica: ((lol))
April 06, 2019 2:47AMJustin: "I think trying to shimmy out the window is going to lead to more attention than we want. Let's just go out the front door."
April 06, 2019 2:47AMDante: (Oh yeah. Shit how high up are we)
(I just assumed ground floor)
April 06, 2019 2:47AMJustin: Justin speaks as he steps into his pants, he goes to put his shirt on and starts getting into his socks and shoes. April 06, 2019 2:47AMGM (GM): Justin, the book performs a quick scan, the thistle on the front cover opens up, and changes into a golden palm on the background of a stone book in front of the gates. Thorns dissipate from tree branches, and golden plates shift, adorning the binding with dragon scales once more.
April 06, 2019 2:48AMJustin: Justin nods and slips the rapidly shrinking book into his back pocket. April 06, 2019 2:48AMJessica: ((there's two bookmarks in it, one has a star drawn on it))
April 06, 2019 2:48AMEve K.: ((Ohh she drew in your book))
April 06, 2019 2:49AMJessica: ((not in the book, on the bookmarks))
April 06, 2019 2:49AMJustin: ((If she drew in my book she also drew in yours.))
Eve K. goes to start gathering luggage in Suite 1, checking to be sure all the guns are still in place
April 06, 2019 2:49AMGM (GM): People are gonna be asking you if you're okay, and paramedics are in the building, cops are checking if anyone's hurt. Let's collectively roll stealth to avoid everyone and get through the fire exits, etc
we need 10 successes as a team
April 06, 2019 2:50AMJessica: orrrrr

April 06, 2019 2:50AMJustin: Justin changes faces for him and Kurt. April 06, 2019 2:50AMGM (GM): do it

((forever))
April 06, 2019 2:52AMGM (GM): Ok, Jessica tunes in to the serendipitous moments. A turned back here, a closed door there. She can get some of the pesky witnesses simply out of our way. The lady has her husband call her back into the room. A cop drops his pen and bends over, out of the view.
This mitigates our stealth needs by 2
April 06, 2019 2:52AMJessica: yay
April 06, 2019 2:52AMGM (GM): Collectively roll dex+stealth and the team has to get 8

April 06, 2019 2:55AMKurtis Kerner: Nah, Kurt, bloodied and fuzzy headed as he may be, stops us and has us "go, go, go", at the opportune times, relying on the thief instincts, and Eve prevents a close call by having us take another hallway and avoid an opening elevator
April 06, 2019 2:55AMGM (GM): All of that, to come outside through the garage to a team of cops and paramedics
April 06, 2019 2:56AMJessica: Dante them
April 06, 2019 2:56AMJustin: #dantecarry
April 06, 2019 2:56AMGM (GM): They see bloodied people and rush to us

(I thought Justincarry cleaned up all the blood?)
April 06, 2019 2:57AMDante: (Yeah without mana there's no way I'm telling anyone to fuck off)

April 06, 2019 2:58AMGM (GM): (luckily telling people to fuck off is not magic :D )
April 06, 2019 2:58AMJessica: ((this is why cubic took our mana))
((because we were using magic for literally everything))
April 06, 2019 2:58AMDante: (He took it because he needed it to make Marcella new feet to cut off)
April 06, 2019 2:59AMEve K.: (and to make grey suit Hans)
April 06, 2019 2:59AMJessica: ((sadface))

April 06, 2019 3:18AMGM (GM): The Spell on the van that was cast before has already dissipated. The breach was made about midnight, and it was a Space spell attempting to locate it. No other foreign spells are on it, except Dante's Space spell.
April 06, 2019 3:18AMJessica: "Something hit it at midnight."
"Almost 5 hours ago. They came from five hours away?"
April 06, 2019 3:19AMEve K.: "They followed Kurtis, not the van."
April 06, 2019 3:19AMDante: Dante nods once. April 06, 2019 3:20AMGM (GM): Dante, your phone rings
April 06, 2019 3:20AMEve K.: "Which just means to me we don't split up anymore"
April 06, 2019 3:20AMDante: (What does the caller ID say?)
Dante grabs his phone, watching it ring.
April 06, 2019 3:20AMGM (GM): "Kurtis Kerner"
April 06, 2019 3:20AMJustin: Justin looks at Kurt again, with his more potent life-sight up. April 06, 2019 3:21AMDante: Dante looks over to Kurtis as he watches it ring, then answers it on speaker phone. "Yeah."
April 06, 2019 3:21AMGM (GM): Justin, there's a very potent life spell on Kurtis
April 06, 2019 3:22AMKurtis Kerner: in Dante's phone "Yo DC, what the fuck? Where you guys at? I'm back at the hotel, got yall sugar cubes, but it's a clusterfuck out here"
April 06, 2019 3:22AMDante: (You all hear that. Its playing in the speaker.)
April 06, 2019 3:22AMKurtis Kerner: draws a knife and lunges at Justin "FOR BELLA!"
Initiative pls
April 06, 2019 3:22AMJessica: ((what's the kurtis we're with thinking? he's in the mind thingy))
ah nvm
Jesus christ
April 06, 2019 3:23AMDante: "Kurtis do you have your greatsword on you? We need you here and I can pull you with it I think."
April 06, 2019 3:23AMEve K.: rolling 1d10+7
= 14
April 06, 2019 3:24AMJustin: rolling 1d10 + 4
= 7
April 06, 2019 3:24AMJessica: ((that whole thing was to drain Justin's mana))
((holy shit))
April 06, 2019 3:24AMKurtis Kerner: in phone "Fuck no, it's in the van, Got your mark on my left hand. Ready for pull!"
April 06, 2019 3:25AMDante: ((I should have scanned Kurt's mind. Stupid of me. The thought occurred to me but there was already so much going on))
April 06, 2019 3:25AMGM (GM): ((that whole thing. was to drain justins mana. we were too clever for them to fight head on))
April 06, 2019 3:26AMJessica: ((slow clap))
April 06, 2019 3:26AMGM (GM): ((Dante, the mind shield was 5 successes, only your roll now breached it with 8))
((they had a life spell with concealment 4))
April 06, 2019 3:27AMDante: ((wew))
((still waiting on a roll))
((from jerktis))
April 06, 2019 3:27AMJessica: ((yeah, jerktis))
April 06, 2019 3:27AMKurt Kerner: rolling d10+8

April 06, 2019 3:28AMJessica: ((appropriate I guess
April 06, 2019 3:28AMKurtis Kerner: rolling d10+9
= 12
April 06, 2019 3:28AMDante: ((well played though. Woulda been real fuckin awkward if we let you die))
April 06, 2019 3:28AMGM (GM): ((yeah once you re-read, it will be fishy as fuck, none of it made sense and many of you called it))
((it's just the pressure was being put on you))
April 06, 2019 3:29AMJustin: ((Didn't want to metagame too much but the Chain is a good show.))
April 06, 2019 3:29AMDante: ((Kurt's dialogue was sketchy as fuck. I just thought you were RPing the more carefree mood you had previous session when he went off looking for mana))
April 06, 2019 3:29AMJessica: ((i think he pulled it off better than the chain))
April 06, 2019 3:29AMJustin: ((Fair enough.))
April 06, 2019 3:30AMGM (GM): ((Bravo!))
April 06, 2019 3:30AMDante: ((no u))
April 06, 2019 3:30AMJessica: ((man when did Kurt get replaced then??))
April 06, 2019 3:31AMDante: ((when we rested.))
((Kurt is here now, at the hotel. He just arrived after a long night of hunting for ley lines))
April 06, 2019 3:31AMGM (GM): ((thats right))
so initiative order iiiis
April 06, 2019 3:31AMJessica: ((taking improved initiative as soon as i can afford it. jesus fuck))
April 06, 2019 3:32AMDante: (Badkurt, Dante, Eve, Kurtis, Justin, Jessica))
April 06, 2019 3:33AMGM (GM): Kurtis, Dante, Eve, Slabod (Fakurtis), Justin, Jessica
April 06, 2019 3:33AMDante: ((Can't wait to find out this other Kurtis is also a fake.))
((Gonna start calling you Nestor))
April 06, 2019 3:33AMJessica: ((good god))
April 06, 2019 3:34AMDante: ((Is improved init just a +3 or something?))
April 06, 2019 3:34AMJessica: ((it's +1 per dot but I gotta get dex up to 3 from 1))
April 06, 2019 3:35AMKurtis Kerner: real Kurtis is casting unseen shield on himself and is ready to be pulled.
April 06, 2019 3:35AMDante: ((Oof, that's an investment))
April 06, 2019 3:35AMKurtis Kerner: resolve+occult+forces = 9
April 06, 2019 3:35AMJessica: ((yeah, i feel like 2 dots makes sense right now but not 3))
April 06, 2019 3:35AMKurtis Kerner: rolling 9d10>8!
= 4 Successes
April 06, 2019 3:35AMJessica: nice
April 06, 2019 3:35AMKurtis Kerner: potency 4, armor 5
April 06, 2019 3:36AMGM (GM): Dante
April 06, 2019 3:36AMDante: ((I had the kurts backwards apparently. Ok. Can I pull him as my movement, or does that take my action?))
April 06, 2019 3:37AMGM (GM): ((it's an action, you gotta like, tune in through space, etc))
you can pull and move though
April 06, 2019 3:39AMDante: Dante turns his head to the side and plunges his right hand into the curtains of space around him. He grasps at Kurtis' awaiting hand, feeling the mark on him. April 06, 2019 3:39AMGM (GM): contact
April 06, 2019 3:40AMJessica: ((its another fake and we die))
April 06, 2019 3:40AMDante: Giving a confirming clench at his wrist, he pulls. April 06, 2019 3:40AMEve K.: ((can't be it has chalk mark))
April 06, 2019 3:40AMDante: ((probably))
((Yeah))
April 06, 2019 3:40AMJustin: ((Huh, you could have just done that the entire time.))
April 06, 2019 3:40AMDante: ((Its like... a certificate of authenticity))
April 06, 2019 3:40AMGM (GM): Kurtis steps out next to Dante
April 06, 2019 3:40AMJessica: ((we all need marks))
April 06, 2019 3:41AMDante: ((Waking up from sleep and panic is not the first thing to think of, but yeah.))
April 06, 2019 3:41AMEve K.: ((true))
April 06, 2019 3:41AMDante: ((Can I use my movement to position myself between Justin and the attacker?))
((or are they too close?))
April 06, 2019 3:42AMGM (GM): yeah you can, let's organize a combat map
April 06, 2019 3:42AMDante: ((I'll do that and that'll be my turn end then.))
April 06, 2019 3:42AMEve K.: ((Would still like to know how to make my map marker smaller))
April 06, 2019 3:42AMDante: ((ya I was looking earlier, couldnt figure it out))
April 06, 2019 3:42AMEve K.: ((but yours is smaller)
April 06, 2019 3:43AMDante: ((someone did that I think. Also dont know how to move without snapping to grid))
April 06, 2019 3:43AMJessica: alt key
April 06, 2019 3:43AMJustin: Alt.
April 06, 2019 3:43AMJessica: working on figuring out sizing
April 06, 2019 3:43AMDante: ((you were all crushed by the now sentient Vaughn))
April 06, 2019 3:44AMEve K.: ((aww))
April 06, 2019 3:44AMJustin: I cry every time.
April 06, 2019 3:46AMGM (GM): Ok
Eve
April 06, 2019 3:46AMJessica: can't figure it out. + and - don't work with any keys
April 06, 2019 3:47AMGM (GM): Kurtis, as he steps out, has his palm open and hand extended out to Dante, expectantly. Dante, moves himself in between other Kurtis and Justin, and it's Eve's turn.
April 06, 2019 3:49AMDante: (resizing should be possible with dragging the corners of your token, but its defaulted to GM only. KK might be able to allow players))
April 06, 2019 3:49AMGM (GM): ((it's alt+drag))
April 06, 2019 3:50AMDante: ((I mean that literally just moves and ignores snap for me))
April 06, 2019 3:50AMJessica: same
it's fine let's keep going
Eve K. glares at not Kurtis and murmurs in a dangerously dark voice in atlantian "Why don't you join her"
April 06, 2019 3:51AMEve K.: casting suppress others life
April 06, 2019 3:51AMDante: (hohohoho)
April 06, 2019 3:51AMEve K.: its a contested roll
He rolls composure gnosis
rolling 7d10>8!
= 4 Successes
April 06, 2019 3:54AM (To Dante): Does Third Eye scrutinizes active Mind Spells or does it detect presence of Minds in the area?
April 06, 2019 3:55AMEve K.: (pretty spiffy. Might buy the rote...)
April 06, 2019 3:55AMDante: ((mind spells))
((sense consciousness is presence of minds))
April 06, 2019 3:55AMGM (GM): ((ok))
April 06, 2019 3:56AM (From Dante): ((oh that was a whisper, sorry just got back from restroom lol))
April 06, 2019 3:58AMEve K.: ((Okay?))
April 06, 2019 3:58AMDante: ((That was meant as a whisper, disregard))
((Wondering what the hold up is tho))
April 06, 2019 3:58AMKurt Kerner: rolling 8d10>8!

Badtis resists the Suppress Life spell
April 06, 2019 3:59AMEve K.: ((you have got to be kidding me))
April 06, 2019 3:59AMDante: ((That happened in the van too))
April 06, 2019 3:59AMJustin: Through Mind Link "Slabod's guys are in the van."
April 06, 2019 3:59AMKurt Kerner: "After I put you in the ground, witch!"
April 06, 2019 4:00AMDante: "
That is a fucking problem."
April 06, 2019 4:00AMKurt Kerner: "They know! Come out!"
(Badits was in the link)
April 06, 2019 4:00AMJustin: ((I can't direct straight at Dante?))
April 06, 2019 4:00AMDante: ((Yeah.))
((I don't know tbh. I think its a freeform thing))
April 06, 2019 4:01AMKurt Kerner: ((Ok thats actually a good question))
((his network is advanced enough to do this. retcon that))
((you can think to not-badtis))
April 06, 2019 4:01AMJessica: ((i was gonna say he filters kurtis all the time))
April 06, 2019 4:01AMDante: ((Whereas with “Telepathy,” p. 212, the willworker could contact other individual minds telepathically, she can now connect multiple minds, creating a network. ))
April 06, 2019 4:01AMEve K.: ((pretty much constantly))
April 06, 2019 4:01AMDante: ((I dont see why we couldn't interpret it as selective.))
((its not a hivemind.))
April 06, 2019 4:02AMKurt Kerner: ((yeah, this Kurtis was unusually quiet, he was trying to not think, to not give away discrepancy))
April 06, 2019 4:02AMDante: ((tbh I don't know what to think anymore))
April 06, 2019 4:02AMKurt Kerner: ((yeah ok, you have the drop on them, he doesnt know you know))
April 06, 2019 4:02AMDante: ((literally everything normal is suspicious now))
April 06, 2019 4:03AMKurt Kerner: will attack Justin with the knife, full attack April 06, 2019 4:03AMJustin: ((Don't you mean Dante?))
April 06, 2019 4:03AMJessica: ((i want that knife))
April 06, 2019 4:03AMEve K.: ((through dante?)
April 06, 2019 4:03AMDante: ((its actually a spear))
April 06, 2019 4:03AMJustin: ((Space warp dagger))
April 06, 2019 4:04AMKurt Kerner: ((can he not step around Dante?))
April 06, 2019 4:04AMDante: ((I guess he could. I don't know if there is such a thing as attack of opportunity in WoD))
((or anything like that))
April 06, 2019 4:04AMKurt Kerner: ((it would make sense for this. you're actively blocking the way))
April 06, 2019 4:05AMDante: ((That was the intention at any rate.))
April 06, 2019 4:05AMKurt Kerner: ((okay, yeah he has to shove you aside, and he will do that, by shoving a knife in you first. what's your defense after dex scour?))
April 06, 2019 4:05AMJustin: ((1))
April 06, 2019 4:05AMKurt Kerner: ((Dante's))
April 06, 2019 4:06AMDante: ((Mine is normally 3))
((I think, sec))
(yeaH)
April 06, 2019 4:06AMKurt Kerner: He is going to try to stab Dante and shove him aside with the knife to get to Justin
Ok, so with dex scoured it would be 2, correct?
April 06, 2019 4:06AMDante: ((For the sake of moving forward lets assume so))
April 06, 2019 4:07AMKurt Kerner: ((Plus, untouchable, is 4 armor))
((so 6 total
April 06, 2019 4:07AMDante: ((Ye))
April 06, 2019 4:08AMKurt Kerner: str 5 + weaponry 3 + knife 2 + all out attack 2 - 6 = 6

shrk! the blade distorts in space as dante dodges and manipulates his spacial shield, but the skill of the wielder is able to draw blood
it doesnt quite push you out of the way though
April 06, 2019 4:09AMDante: Dante keeps his feet planted, gritting his teeth at the pain of having been slashed across the forearm. April 06, 2019 4:09AMGM (GM): Justin
April 06, 2019 4:10AMDante: ((is that bash or))
April 06, 2019 4:10AMGM (GM): like yeah i'm assuming there's like a proper fight
lethal
April 06, 2019 4:10AMDante: ((thought so, ok))
April 06, 2019 4:10AMJustin: Justin looks at the van. "Lock your doors buddy."
April 06, 2019 4:11AMGM (GM): click
April 06, 2019 4:11AMJustin: Justin is going to try and combine Vermious Metamorphosis + Control Object.
Keep the door slocked and turn the seats into wasps.
April 06, 2019 4:11AMDante: ((Oh god not the bees))

2-yard radius swarm fills up the van.
April 06, 2019 4:13AMGM (GM): So now there are no seats
April 06, 2019 4:13AMEve K.: only wasps
April 06, 2019 4:13AMJustin: And a fuckton of wasps.
April 06, 2019 4:14AMJessica: ((this is why we shouldn't animate the van))
April 06, 2019 4:14AMGM (GM): well this surely pops our two additional guests out of their ambush and into the initiative roster
April 06, 2019 4:14AMJessica: ((no they like wasps))

April 06, 2019 4:15AMGM (GM): justin, do you want to roll for swarm bites?
or how does it work?
April 06, 2019 4:16AMJustin: Sure.
Essentially they each get 1 die of bashing to attack with.

Next is.... Jess
April 06, 2019 4:17AMJustin: Stamina + Survival roll. If it
succeeds, he suffers no effect; if it fails,
his physical-action dice pools suffer a –
2 penalty for the rest of the scene or
until he receives an antivenin (based
on whatever creature the mage conjures). This penalty is cumulative. If a
April 06, 2019 4:17AMJustin: victim suffers successive bites and the
Stamina + Survival roll fails, his penalties are added together.
Guy who got stung has to make a Stam + Survival.
April 06, 2019 4:18AMGM (GM): stamina 3 + survival 0
April 06, 2019 4:18AMJessica: ((i have a question after the survival roll; who has the guns?))

((Eve has the guns))
April 06, 2019 4:19AMEve K.: ((Eve has them in a bag))

April 06, 2019 4:24AMDante: ((What does my third eye show on "real" Kurtis that is totally not another fake kurtis?))
April 06, 2019 4:24AMGM (GM): ((Your mind shield spell is on him))
April 06, 2019 4:26AMDante: Dante gives a hard look at Kurtis' open hand, a moment of analyzing before a sense of reassurance crosses his face. ((Can I even grab it and throw it to him in my current position?))
April 06, 2019 4:27AMGM (GM): ((you can pull it directly from the van, you can try. the only problem to contend with is bad Kurtis in your face with a knife, so how about do like a stamina+athletics check to do it, avoiding exposing yourself))
((you have the space shield still protecting you, so even 1 success would do))

Eve K. 's eyes bleed to black as she pops her neck, taking a deep breath murmuring in Atlantian "You should have left us be, now you'll rot in purgatory" Eve lunges for BadKurtis to try and throw him off his attack but that's secondary to casting rotting flesh at sensory range.

April 06, 2019 4:41AMGM (GM): yeah you can push him 1 foot in any direction
April 06, 2019 4:41AMEve K.: towards the wasps XD
April 06, 2019 4:44AMJustin: ((Under the van!!))
April 06, 2019 4:44AMIvan: casts Control Base Life to attempt and seize Justin's control of the wasps and command them himself April 06, 2019 4:44AMJessica: yikes
April 06, 2019 4:45AMIvan: rolling 7d10>8!
= 2 Successes
April 06, 2019 4:45AMJustin: Justin reflexively drops the spell as Ivan takes control. April 06, 2019 4:45AMGM (GM): a bunch of bits of leather and dismembered stuffing fall on the floor
April 06, 2019 4:45AMEve K.: (turn them back into chairs)
April 06, 2019 4:46AMGM (GM): (oh they're all rearranged now
April 06, 2019 4:46AMEve K.: (best thing ever)
April 06, 2019 4:46AMJessica: ((poor van))
April 06, 2019 4:46AMDante: ((My van...))
((sniff))
April 06, 2019 4:46AMEve K.: (justin can fix it)
(hes our fix-it felix)
April 06, 2019 4:46AMJustin: ((Pfft, so can eve!!))
April 06, 2019 4:47AMKurt Kerner: Will now heal himself April 06, 2019 4:47AMEve K.: (she could...)
April 06, 2019 4:47AMKurt Kerner: rolling 10d10>8!
= 4 Successes
April 06, 2019 4:47AMJessica: ((bad kurt sucks))
April 06, 2019 4:48AMKurtis Kerner: now takes his action and telekinetically pulls the sword into his hand rolling 11d10>8!
= 3 Successes
April 06, 2019 4:49AMGM (GM): The great sword slides from under the van and plants into Kurt's hand. He now takes his move action towards Egor-Dante
Justin!
April 06, 2019 4:50AMJessica: why wasn't he next to real dante?
real dante had to take him by the hand didn't he?
April 06, 2019 4:50AMDante: (Dante moved away from him after pulling him to interpose between Justin and badkurt)
April 06, 2019 4:50AMGM (GM): Because real Dante pulled him in, but then moved to shield justin
April 06, 2019 4:50AMJessica: yeah i forgot carry on
April 06, 2019 4:50AMJustin: So..
April 06, 2019 4:51AMDante: ( my wayward son, there'll be peace when you are done)
April 06, 2019 4:51AMJustin: What is in front of and behind the van?
April 06, 2019 4:51AMGM (GM): Behind the van is the path to the exit, in front is the concrete wall, to the left are other cars, to the right are us and exit
April 06, 2019 4:52AMJustin: If the van just yeets straight back, will it hit a wall or another car?
April 06, 2019 4:52AMGM (GM): another car
April 06, 2019 4:52AMJustin: And one guy is still in the van right?
April 06, 2019 4:53AMGM (GM): yes
April 06, 2019 4:53AMJustin: Justin gives the van a salute. "Do your thing buddy."
Combined control object and then transmute water right at the end of the trajectory."
Transmuting gas to Nitroglycerine and making it yeet back into other cars.
April 06, 2019 4:54AMGM (GM): no mana to transmute
not your path
April 06, 2019 4:54AMJustin: I have the rote.
FOr both.
April 06, 2019 4:54AMGM (GM): aha
fire away
April 06, 2019 4:54AMJustin: rolling 5d10>8!
= 2 Successes
2 successes is enough for a full gas tank.
:)
April 06, 2019 4:55AMJessica: christ
April 06, 2019 4:56AMGM (GM): it kind of slowly rolls back and touches the other car gently, and you're pretty sure the chemical change takes place
April 06, 2019 4:56AMJustin: "
We should move in the other direction."
April 06, 2019 4:57AMGM (GM): a few moments pass as nitro cycles through the system
April 06, 2019 4:57AMJustin: Justin will make his way opposite the car.
April 06, 2019 4:57AMGM (GM): Jessica
April 06, 2019 4:58AMJessica: Evil eye on Dante/Igor
April 06, 2019 4:58AMGM (GM): actually, Justin didnt start the car, the keys werent in, he disengaged the break, effectively put it in neutral
so you have a non running engine tank of nitro
April 06, 2019 4:58AMJustin: "Nitroglycerin is an oily, colourless liquid, but also a high explosive that is so unstable that the slightest jolt, impact or friction can cause it to spontaneously detonate."
April 06, 2019 4:59AMGM (GM): the spirit of a not started car can only do so much
April 06, 2019 5:00AMJustin: The impact would almost certainly start setting it off.
April 06, 2019 5:00AMDante: ((smells like a roll-to-explode situation to me))
April 06, 2019 5:00AMGM (GM): ((oh wow, yeah))
oooookay
April 06, 2019 5:01AMDante: ((so the land-helicopter explodes?))
April 06, 2019 5:01AMGM (GM): this is gonna be a big explosion folks
April 06, 2019 5:01AMJessica: land helicopter lmao
April 06, 2019 5:01AMGM (GM): bye bye magemobile
April 06, 2019 5:01AMJessica: it's okay, Dante has excellent insurance
right?
April 06, 2019 5:01AMDante: Excellent means it was stolen.
April 06, 2019 5:01AMEve K.: yup
"borrowed"
April 06, 2019 5:02AMDante: Yeah they can have it back now
April 06, 2019 5:02AMJessica: they can have it back now dying
April 06, 2019 5:02AMDante: "Step away? What did you d..."
April 06, 2019 5:04AMGM (GM): Ok people inside the orange are gonna take full damage, and Jessica would take half
But what do i roll for the strength of the explosion?
April 06, 2019 5:04AMJessica: pls don't kill kurtis jesus christ
April 06, 2019 5:04AMGM (GM): he only rolled a 2 on the transmute
April 06, 2019 5:04AMDante: ((You did say it was a full tank))
April 06, 2019 5:04AMGM (GM): rules for explosions?
April 06, 2019 5:04AMDante: ((what does 15-20 gallons of nitroglycerin exploding look like? I have no idea))
April 06, 2019 5:05AMGM (GM): so i guess like, 1 dice per gallon
April 06, 2019 5:05AMDante: ((and then double it for good measure. We should actually look this up if this is happening ))
April 06, 2019 5:05AMGM (GM): ((yeah, where?
April 06, 2019 5:06AMJustin: ((I'm checking on explosion mechanics in WOD book.))
((If they even exist.))
April 06, 2019 5:07AMDante: ((there is a blast section in 20th anniversary Mage book. Don't have source, but do have a forum post))
April 06, 2019 5:07AMEve K.: ((If Justin kills real Kurtis with his car bomb Eve will be pissed))
April 06, 2019 5:07AMDante: ((everyone will be))
April 06, 2019 5:08AMDante: yeah thats the one I'm looking at
April 06, 2019 5:08AMEve K.: ((That
April 06, 2019 5:08AMDante: I put a screenshot in FB
April 06, 2019 5:08AMEve K.: (is old wod)
April 06, 2019 5:08AMGM (GM): ((A frag grenade is damage 2
April 06, 2019 5:09AMDante: ((is it, huh.))
April 06, 2019 5:09AMGM (GM): ((thermite is 4))
yeah this is gonna be something in the area of 6-8 damage probably
April 06, 2019 5:09AMJessica: Hurt Locker, pp. 134-137
April 06, 2019 5:10AMJustin: ((Page 179 has base mechanics in the WOD book))
April 06, 2019 5:10AMDante: ((It sure do))
April 06, 2019 5:10AMGM (GM): 6+ category
April 06, 2019 5:10AMJustin: ((Sounds about right.))
April 06, 2019 5:11AMGM (GM): Alright
but since you dont throw it
i dont know what to roll
just flat damage i guess
April 06, 2019 5:12AMJustin: Maybe
Size + Damage?
For the size of the van?
April 06, 2019 5:12AMGM (GM): van is like size 15
April 06, 2019 5:12AMJustin: Maybe not.
April 06, 2019 5:12AMGM (GM): i mean, this was a very dangerous move
ok
6 damage to Ivan, Egor, Kurtis
and 3 to Jessica
this is aggrevated fire damage
April 06, 2019 5:13AMJustin: Does egor take extra for being richochet'd around in the van?
April 06, 2019 5:13AMJessica: Ivan's in the van
April 06, 2019 5:14AMJustin: Ivan then.
April 06, 2019 5:14AMJessica: Egor is not-Dante I think
April 06, 2019 5:14AMDante: Egor's a bitch is what he is
April 06, 2019 5:14AMEve K.: Explosives
Explosives cause the majority of their damage at the
point of origin, with shrapnel and the force of the explosion
causing secondary damage by degree the further from the
explosion a character is located. The rules for explosives
found in the World of Darkness Rulebook, p. 179 do a fair
April 06, 2019 5:14AMJessica: yeah
April 06, 2019 5:14AMEve K.: job of simulating the effects of an explosion but the follow-
ing rules may be used in addition. Rules for mitigating the
damage caused by explosions remain unchanged.
• All explosives gain the 9-again quality.
April 06, 2019 5:14AMEve K.: • Characters at point-blank range suffer half again
(round down) the fl at Damage of the explosive plus damage
rolled. So, a character standing at the point of origin for an
explosive with Damage 4 suffers 6 automatic wounds plus
any number of successes rolled on 4 dice.
• Characters outside the Blast Area of the explosion
April 06, 2019 5:14AMEve K.: still suffer the possibility of being hit by fl ying shrapnel and
debris. Roll the Damage rating of the explosive against any
character outside the primary radius of the explosion but
still within half the Blast Area in yards (round down). So,
an explosion with Blast Area and Damage of 4 rolls 4 dice
of damage against characters within a 5-6 yard radius of
April 06, 2019 5:14AMEve K.: the explosion.
(from Dogs of War combat book)
April 06, 2019 5:15AMJessica: even chronicles of darkness doesn't use anything over a 4 for explosives but they don't have nitro anywhere in hurt locker
probably because of the half again etc stuff for damage
April 06, 2019 5:15AMGM (GM): Ok so, Ivan, in the van, has 5 armor on him, magic armor
regular defense useless here
for point blank, what do you roll?
6 dice
Ivan takes 6 dmg + roll
Kurt and Egor suffer 3dmg + roll
April 06, 2019 5:17AMGM (GM): and jessica suffers just the roll
ok
rolling 6d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 06, 2019 5:17AMJessica: I do have baby armor
April 06, 2019 5:17AMDante: baby armor for the win
April 06, 2019 5:18AMJessica: So I guess I matrix dodge it since i have temporal armor?
actually it's fate armor
April 06, 2019 5:18AMDante: you were never meant to be hit
April 06, 2019 5:18AMEve K.: the fireball just happens to swerve
April 06, 2019 5:19AMGM (GM): i guess i have to individually roll for each character?
April 06, 2019 5:19AMJustin: I can roll.
Am I rolling 6 dice for each?
April 06, 2019 5:19AMGM (GM): For Ivan subtract 5, for Kurtis 5, For Egor 4 for jessica 2
April 06, 2019 5:19AMJustin: Ivan
rolling 1d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 06, 2019 5:19AMDante: nice
April 06, 2019 5:19AMGM (GM): 7 damage
April 06, 2019 5:20AMJustin: Kurtis
rolling 1d10>8!
= 0 Successes
Egor
April 06, 2019 5:20AMGM (GM): 4 damage
April 06, 2019 5:20AMJustin: rolling 2d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 06, 2019 5:20AMGM (GM): 5 damage
April 06, 2019 5:20AMJustin: And Jess already rolled.
April 06, 2019 5:20AMGM (GM): jess 1 agg
wow
April 06, 2019 5:21AMJustin: Why did Kurt take 4 damage? Shouldin't it be 3?
April 06, 2019 5:21AMGM (GM): oh yeah
3
and egor 4
we are all equal before magemobile!
magemobile mvp
April 06, 2019 5:22AMDante: rest in pieces
April 06, 2019 5:22AMJessica: I have a question before we keep going
April 06, 2019 5:22AMGM (GM): Jessica goes now
is the question "can we do this next time?"
cause yes
April 06, 2019 5:22AMJessica: did my lethal replace my bashing before or do i still have the bashing
also does aggrevated replace anything or add
April 06, 2019 5:22AMGM (GM): you still have bashing, it gets pushed

April 06, 2019 5:23AMJessica: Evil Eye on not-Dante
rolling 4d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 06, 2019 5:23AMGM (GM): ((Slabod Gang - doomed to die in van explosions))

Zzzzzzz
April 06, 2019 5:24AMDante: uhhh

April 06, 2019 5:24AMJessica: no xp
April 06, 2019 5:25AMJustin: guess not..

April 06, 2019 5:26AMJustin: I scoured my pattern to heal not-Kurt.
You too.
April 06, 2019 5:26AMDante: I cant do fucking anything I wanted to do
coz my mana from scouring was used in dream
April 06, 2019 5:26AMEve K.: night all
April 06, 2019 5:26AMJustin: Night!
April 06, 2019 5:26AMDante: night Eve!

April 06, 2019 5:27AMDante: and I played really carelessly tonight. Like I said. Regret.
April 06, 2019 5:27AMJustin: Finally have a use for mana: can't use mana.
:)
April 06, 2019 5:27AMJessica: kurt said he had cubes
April 06, 2019 5:27AMDante: yeah
April 06, 2019 5:27AMJustin: You did good.
Shielded me.
April 06, 2019 5:27AMDante: I have cubes too. A few. But solid form takes time to digest
yap
April 06, 2019 5:27AMJustin: Justin woulda been pincuishioned.
April 06, 2019 5:27AMDante: I wasnt gonna let him stab
how can he stab
April 06, 2019 5:27AMJessica: i
need occult 1
April 06, 2019 5:28AMDante: start reading spooky literature
April 06, 2019 5:28AMJessica: i can't even pick up rotes right now 'cause my impromptu pool is higher
-3 untrained int skills sucks ass
April 06, 2019 5:28AMDante: its a weird problem to have yeah
April 06, 2019 5:28AMJustin: It's common early and late-game.
Eventually you want more Gnosis.
Which ups your imprompty.
...
Impromptu.
April 06, 2019 5:28AMDante: imprompty-dompty
ok, delirium calls for me goodbye
April 06, 2019 5:29AMJustin: Goodbye
April 06, 2019 5:29AMJessica: night
April 13, 2019 10:21PMGM (GM): Initiative Order:
Kurtis, Egor (looks like Dante), Dante, Eve, Ivan, Slabod (looks like Kurtis), Justin, Jessica
Hi guys, everyone waked up, got coffee/soda and ready?
April 13, 2019 10:22PMJessica: box
April 13, 2019 10:22PMEve K.: ready
April 13, 2019 10:22PMJustin: Yeah, box.
April 13, 2019 10:22PMGM (GM): ok before we do, can everyone make quick recount of mana, willpower, and damage please?
April 13, 2019 10:23PMKurtis Kerner: Kurtis Kerner: Willpower 4, Mana 12 (52 mana mote cubes in possession), 3 aggrevated out of 9 total health
April 13, 2019 10:24PMEve K.: Mana 0, 1 bashing, 3 willpower left
April 13, 2019 10:24PMJustin: 2 Willpower, 1 Mana, no damage.
April 13, 2019 10:24PMEve K.: bashing is out of 8 health
April 13, 2019 10:25PMDante: 6WP, 0 Mana, 1 Lethal/7
April 13, 2019 10:25PMJessica: mana 3/10, willpower 1, health is 2 Bashing, 3 lethal, 1 Agg/9 max health
April 13, 2019 10:26PMJustin: Max health is 9 if you need to know.
April 13, 2019 10:28PMKurtis Kerner: Ok Jess, your bashing heals. That was that persistant bashing you got from the dreams
it healed while we were making excuses to cops
so write 1 bashing off
the other bashing will heal in 10 minutes, or pretty much after this combat
Okay, we're good to go, boxing
Episode 39, part 2, The Fight in the Parking Garage
April 13, 2019 10:31PMGM (GM): It's Kurt's turn.
This turn starts with several car alarms going off triggered by the explosion Booo- beee - booo-beee, wowowowowow*
That's the soundtrack for a while.
April 13, 2019 10:34PMKurtis Kerner: Kurt winces at the flame as it washes over him, he gets bumped by the explosion and stumbles a few feet out of the radius, then catches one of the flashes of incoming flame into his hand and commands it into the sword, attempting to set it on fire with a Control Fire spell Gnosis 3 + Forces 5 = 8
rolling 8d10>8!
= 4 Successes
Kurt's sword is on fire for 4 turns. He cannot move this turn, so he concentrates on this, and that's his turn.
April 13, 2019 10:37PMJessica: ((not to interrupt: mana's actually at 2, evil eye costs 1. also have 1 armor from fortune's protection if it matters))
April 13, 2019 10:37PMGM (GM): ((yeah it matters! :D ))
Next goes Egor.
April 13, 2019 10:39PMEgor (Dante form): Egor also gets bumped by the shock wave, and also stumbles, losing most of his move, and taking a fair bit of damage, so he casts a healing spell on himself. rolling 10d10>8!
= 2 Successes
April 13, 2019 10:40PMGM (GM): Dante!
April 13, 2019 10:42PMDante: *Dante sways as the shockwave of the explosion ripples through him, taking a bracing step back. Concern is assuaged as he notices Kurtis channelling the flames into his sword. 'This is the beginning of the end,' he says into fake Kurt's mind through his presence in the network. 'Drop your spells and you may yet live.'
Dante's thumb and ring finger pinch together, his index and middle pointing as he attempts to dominate Slabod.*
April 13, 2019 10:42PMGM (GM): ((Jessica, your Fate is at 2 btw, so your Fate Shield is 2 armor))
April 13, 2019 10:43PMDante: ((mind 5, gnosis 3, WP 3 = 11))
rolling 11d10>8!
= 1 Success
((end of turn))
April 13, 2019 10:43PMGM (GM): ((What does Slav roll to resist domination?))
April 13, 2019 10:44PMDante: ((Think it was resolve gnosis. Lemme double check))
April 13, 2019 10:44PMGM (GM): ((Ok correct))
April 13, 2019 10:44PMDante: ((it is))
April 13, 2019 10:44PMSlabod: rolling 8d10>8!
= 3 Successes
April 13, 2019 10:45PMDante: ((good start))
April 13, 2019 10:45PMJustin: ((Fuck))
April 13, 2019 10:45PMJessica: ((I don't understand armor because i only rolled one success but we can go over it later I guess))
April 13, 2019 10:45PMSlabod: "You already tried that." - Slabod things back into the network. "It does. Not. Work."
thinks*
April 13, 2019 10:46PMGM (GM): ((Shield provides you armor points equal to your arcana, but potency 1 makes it dispellable with 2 successes on a dispel))
((your roll in this case is determining how hard it is for an enemy to just cancel your shield with a counterspell))
Eve's turn.
April 13, 2019 10:47PMJessica: ((thanks))
April 13, 2019 10:48PMEve K.: ((remind me which one is stuck in the destroyed van.. Ivan?))
April 13, 2019 10:49PMJessica: ((yeah i tihnk so))
((we are dealing with Slabod/Turkis))
April 13, 2019 10:49PMJustin: ((Yeah, Ivan.))
April 13, 2019 10:49PMJessica: ((and Egor looks like Dante))
April 13, 2019 10:50PMGM (GM): ((correct, Ivan is in the van, it's all in fire, so you may have to roll perception to get line of sight))
April 13, 2019 10:50PM (From Eve K.): If I cast control shadows can I draw where the shadows cover and don't?
April 13, 2019 10:50PMGM (GM): ((in fact yeah, if you gonna try to target him with a targeted spell, roll wits + comp))
April 13, 2019 10:51PM (To Eve K.): if you roll over 3 successes, yes.
Eve K. winces as the heat from the explosion flares over her skin, narrowing her eyes at the blaring car alarms. She takes a quick glance at the exit before rolling her neck and muttering in Atlantian "Darkness surround us, be my strength."
April 13, 2019 10:53PMEve K.: summoning shadows
rolling 12d10>8!
= 6 Successes
strength 4 durability 2
I get 5 cubic yards of shadows
April 13, 2019 10:55PMGM (GM): Ok, with those successes, per your PM, yes, you can draw exactly which areas shadows cover / exclude, you have superior control over them
April 13, 2019 10:55PMEve K.: ((How do I draw where I'm putting them))
April 13, 2019 10:55PMGM (GM): ((are you not able to draw?))
April 13, 2019 10:55PMEve K.: (Never tried)
April 13, 2019 10:56PMGM (GM): ((there is a panel in the top left corner))
April 13, 2019 10:56PMEve K.: (what distance do these squares represent?)
April 13, 2019 10:57PMGM (GM): (1 square = 5 yards)
((i have to make the van smaller i realized, a van size is like 7 yards))
April 13, 2019 10:58PMJustin: ((The drawing looks like a square is 5 feet.))
April 13, 2019 10:58PMGM (GM): ((i'm bad at this, how do i adjust the drawing
April 13, 2019 10:59PMJustin: ((You change your description or resize everything.))
April 13, 2019 10:59PMEve K.: ((how many yards was the explosion?)
April 13, 2019 11:00PMJessica: orange line
April 13, 2019 11:01PMEve K.: ...
April 13, 2019 11:01PMGM (GM): ((initially 20 yards, but im checking if its realistic))
((explosive level 6 by wod book mentions damage, i didnt see distance requirements, says GM can assign blast radius))
April 13, 2019 11:02PMJustin: 16 yard radius looks like.
April 13, 2019 11:02PMEve K.: ((okay then besides the cars and our place holders being too big the drawing is already to scale))
April 13, 2019 11:03PMJustin: ((I counted the boxes in the orange circle so I certainly hope it's to scale.))
April 13, 2019 11:04PMGM (GM): ((would it help if i pull up a floor plan of an actual parking garage?))
April 13, 2019 11:04PMJustin: ((Nah.))
Eve K. 's eyes bleed to black as shadows gather around the destroyed van, not to put it out, but to keep Ivan in the fire longer. The shadows at Eve's bidding will hold Ivan in darkness and resist his attempts to leave the fire
April 13, 2019 11:05PMEve K.: ((end))
April 13, 2019 11:05PMGM (GM): ((So they're going to basically grapple attempt him, yeah?))
April 13, 2019 11:06PMEve K.: ((well first they will just be dark, if he manages to stumble towards an exit to the van in complete darkness THEN they will attempt to grapple
April 13, 2019 11:07PMGM (GM): ((He is going to jump in the last direction he saw, yes. These shadows basically make even the fire not visible anymore))
April 13, 2019 11:07PMEve K.: ((right))
April 13, 2019 11:08PMGM (GM): ((He will do everything he can to jump out, so he would have to contest his strength+brawl afaik))
It's his turn.
He is feeling extremely hurt and panicked, he tries to jump out of the van's remains in the last direction he remembered.
April 13, 2019 11:09PMJessica: ((omg that would be fucking terrifying))
April 13, 2019 11:09PMEve K.: ((grapple is stregth+Brawl minus targets defense))
((Defense is lowest of dex or wits))
April 13, 2019 11:11PMGM (GM): ((Roll for the shadows, roll 4 dice against his defense, which is 2, as his Life shield doesnt aid in grapple defense but only in damage reduction))
April 13, 2019 11:11PMEve K.: ((so two dice))
April 13, 2019 11:11PMGM (GM): ((ye))
April 13, 2019 11:11PMEve K.: rolling 2d10>8!
= 2 Successes
((yes!))
April 13, 2019 11:12PMGM (GM): Ok, Ivan is grappled by the Shadows so he cannot jump out.
April 13, 2019 11:12PMDante: ((it is now even more terrifying)
April 13, 2019 11:12PMJessica: ((i would be thoughts-out panicked at that point))
April 13, 2019 11:12PMEve K.: ((Yup. gonna give myself nightmares thinking about it XD))
April 13, 2019 11:12PMGM (GM): He will attempt to cast a spell.
Can Ivan see himself?
April 13, 2019 11:13PMEve K.: ((can't see anything. the darkness is complete))
April 13, 2019 11:13PMGM (GM): I'm assuming he sees nothing but darkness now
Ooookay these are gonna be crazy penalties
April 13, 2019 11:13PMEve K.: ((he can feel himself I suppose?))
April 13, 2019 11:13PMGM (GM): oof
good luck Ivan
April 13, 2019 11:14PMIvan: rolling 3d10>8!
= 0 Successes
April 13, 2019 11:14PMGM (GM): He tried to do something.
We will never find out what.
April 13, 2019 11:14PMDante: ((Transmute: Dry pants to wet))
April 13, 2019 11:15PMSlabod: Slabod
rolling 10d10>8!

April 13, 2019 11:15PMGM (GM): Jessica, Dante, and Eve, please roll perception
April 13, 2019 11:16PMDante: ((Wits + Comp, or is it related to something?))
April 13, 2019 11:16PMGM (GM): ((wits + comp))
April 13, 2019 11:16PMDante: rolling 6d10>8!

April 13, 2019 11:16PMGM (GM): This is purely to notice something
April 13, 2019 11:16PMDante: ((ok i dont))
April 13, 2019 11:17PMJessica: rolling 7d10>8!
= 2 Successes
April 13, 2019 11:17PMEve K.: rolling 7d10>8!
= 2 Successes
oh also fire rules...
April 13, 2019 11:17PMGM (GM): Jessica and Eve, please roll your science or academics or animal ken + intelligence, your choice which skill
April 13, 2019 11:17PMEve K.: 2
Y our character comes in contact with a candle or an
inferno. E ither way, he gets burned. Fire automatically
inflicts lethal damage per turn of exposure (no attack roll
is required). The larger the flame, the more harm thatÕs
inflicted. The hotter the flame, the greater the injury.
April 13, 2019 11:17PMEve K.: Size of Fire Damage
Torch 1
Bonfire 2
Inferno 3
Heat of Fire Damage Modifier
Candle (first-degree burns) Ñ
April 13, 2019 11:17PMEve K.: Torch (second-degree burns) +1
Bunsen burner (third-degree burns)+2
Chemical fire/molten metal +3
So, a fire the size of a bonfire (2) and with the intensity
of a torch (+1) inflicts three damage per turn of contact.
In general, if exposure to fire persists for more than a
April 13, 2019 11:17PMEve K.: turn, it catches anything combustible. Y our character continues
to take full damage, even if he escapes the original
source of the flame.
April 13, 2019 11:18PMGM (GM): Eve, his shield, Organic Resilience, protects him from this for that turn.
April 13, 2019 11:18PMJessica: rolling 4d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 13, 2019 11:18PMEve K.: kk
((Int + science))
April 13, 2019 11:19PMJessica: ((academics if you need to flavor it))
April 13, 2019 11:19PMEve K.: rolling 5d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 13, 2019 11:20PMGM (GM): Dante does not see this, probably because Slabod leaves the knife he stabbed Dante with, in Dante, letting go of it. You two however, notice Slabod take a martial combative stance and his skin, fists and face and neck spurt tiny tiny bristles, which seem to be slick with some fluid. You both deduce he's coated himself with some form of animal contact venom.
April 13, 2019 11:21PM (From Eve K.): we can talk freely between turns yes?
April 13, 2019 11:21PM (To Eve K.): yes
April 13, 2019 11:22PMGM (GM): Turn is to Justin
April 13, 2019 11:22PMEve K.: "Don't touch him, he's covered himself in some sort of poison I think"
April 13, 2019 11:23PMJustin: Justin is just going to activate his matter shield.
rolling 11d10>8!
= 3 Successes
April 13, 2019 11:24PMGM (GM): Ambient moisture forms a cushion around Justin, providing armor 3
Anything else?
April 13, 2019 11:25PMJustin: Nope.
April 13, 2019 11:25PMGM (GM): Jessica
April 13, 2019 11:27PM (From Dante): ((Don't know what else to expect from this fight, but if it becomes relevant at all, I still have Third Eye active at potency 8))
April 13, 2019 11:27PMJessica: Jessica grits her teeth against the pain in her arm. The skin that isn't covered by her new goth outfit is getting sort of bubbly-looking after getting burned by the explosion. Burns. Fucking. Suck. But her adrenaline is high enough for now to kind of ignore it even though the toasted skin is tight and stiff as she lifts her hand to do a coin-flip motion with her thumb towards Kurt. ((exceptional luck, using last wp))
April 13, 2019 11:28PM (To Dante): ((There is a 4th enemy somewhere, but he can't seem to get in. This mind is occupied with a sense of hurry to find a good position, from which he could attack))
April 13, 2019 11:28PMJessica: rolling 5d10>8!
= 4 Successes
April 13, 2019 11:29PMJustin: ((4 successes on 5 dice. Nice.))
April 13, 2019 11:29PMJessica: ((yar))
April 13, 2019 11:29PMEve K.: ((yeah that's awesome))
April 13, 2019 11:29PMDante: (Wild roll!)
April 13, 2019 11:29PMGM (GM): ((is this giving kurt 9 again for 4 turns?))
April 13, 2019 11:30PMJessica: ((4 rolls yeah)
((at 1 mana))
((you can choose which rolls to use them on))
April 13, 2019 11:31PMKurtis Kerner: Kurt catches Jessica's coin flip with a corner of his eye as he prepares to strike, a shine or fire reflects in the surface of the coin, his eye, and the tip of his flaming sword. He feels like this is the moment. Between her, Eve, and Dante, his perfect moment to strike at Slabod. Everything just seems so serendipitous. The man coated himself in touch poison, but a blade does not need touch. Surely, he's going to strike true! He sense the blade adjust itself just perfectly and smiles. Everything's gonna be okay! April 13, 2019 11:32PM (From Dante): (I think I should ignore that since Third Eye is for mental powers. Sense Consciousness is for detecting minds specifically. I should have clarified.))
April 13, 2019 11:33PM (To Dante): Oh thank you, yes, ignore that :)
April 13, 2019 11:33PMKurtis Kerner: Kurt will close in and use the flaming sword strike Strength 3 + Great Sword 4 + Weaponry 2 + Forces 5 + Willpower 3 - Slabod's Defense 8 = 17 - 8 = 9
with 9 again
rolling 9d10>8!>9
= 3 Successes
Kurt cuts through the shoulder of his twin, despite the latter's attempt to dodge the best he can, fire blazing through the wound. This gets Slabod's attention, and now two Kurts will be at odds.
April 13, 2019 11:39PMEgor (Dante form): Egor goes next.
Egor attempts to take down the target, which is Kurt. He casts something.
rolling 6d10>8!
= 4 Successes
April 13, 2019 11:43PMKurtis Kerner: Kurtis drops to his knee, as if life itself's been sucked out of his lungs, he manages to stay conscious though, and does not let go of the weapon April 13, 2019 11:44PMEgor (Dante form): moves up to Jessica April 13, 2019 11:44PMJustin: Counterspell.
April 13, 2019 11:44PMGM (GM): Roll it!
April 13, 2019 11:45PMJustin: rolling 8d10>8!
= 5 Successes
April 13, 2019 11:45PMEve K.: ((oh nice))
April 13, 2019 11:45PMDante: ((heroic))
April 13, 2019 11:45PMGM (GM): Justin, please describe how you look.
April 13, 2019 11:45PMJessica: ((yass))
April 13, 2019 11:45PMGM (GM): Your pose, so to speak.
April 13, 2019 11:47PMJustin: Justin eyes the way Egor attempts to weave his spell. He's familiar, he used the same thing to kill Simon.
The world around Egor and Kurt ripples as if the concrete and flesh were made of water and the magic gets snuffed out like a candle denied any oxygen.
April 13, 2019 11:52PMGM (GM): In a quick retcon, Egor's spell is frayed, and life bursts back into Kurtis, having never left him. His grip firm, knees strong. Maybe he only feels it but for a moment and then springs back, or maybe not at all. Kurtis probably is only remotely aware of what just took place, focused on the onslaught, but Egor is very aware. He sees the quintessence from the vapor clad Thyrsus shoot out and destroy his best effort.
"Ffffuck you, blyat!" - he angrily shouts, and glances at Slabod, worried. Is this more than they could chew?
This spends Justin's turn at the end.
The turn is to Dante.
April 13, 2019 11:54PMDante: ((Do I need to roll perception to notice the worry on my doppelganger's face?))
April 13, 2019 11:54PMGM (GM): ((Go ahead yeah, i woulda given it if you didnt roll a 0 on last perception, but yeah DC gotta get his awareness together))
April 13, 2019 11:54PMDante: rolling 6d10>8!
= 3 Successes
April 13, 2019 11:55PMGM (GM): Yeah, you can sense it
April 13, 2019 11:58PMDante: Dante takes a few steps back at Eve's callout and looks to Slabod, then Egor. Noticing the worry, he reaches out with his mind, hand making a similar but more subtle gesture from when he tried it on Slabod. "He's leading you to your death, you know. End him before he ends you and your burning friend." ((psychic domination on Egor, command is to attack Slabod))
rolling 8d10>8!
= 1 Success
((resolve+gnosis resist. Can't roll shit))
April 13, 2019 11:58PMGM (GM): ((gnosis 3 + resolve 2 to resist))
April 13, 2019 11:58PMEgor (Dante form): rolling 5d10>8!
= 1 Success
Egor's face twitches, but he shakes it off.
April 13, 2019 11:59PMDante: ((mechanically I'll move back a few feet and that's another useless turn. At least some of us are doing work.))
April 14, 2019 12:00AMGM (GM): Turn is to Eve
April 14, 2019 12:00AMJessica: ((one more turn before we get venom'd))
April 14, 2019 12:00AMEve K.: ((need some luck I'd say))
April 14, 2019 12:00AMGM (GM): ((pls someone pls))
April 14, 2019 12:00AMDante: ((cant wait))
April 14, 2019 12:00AMGM (GM): ((dont let me get venomed, it will end me XD ))
April 14, 2019 12:00AM (From Eve K.): how does combined casting work? Like how does Justin do two spells in one turn?
April 14, 2019 12:01AM (To Eve K.): you cast at -2, and with 1 higher arcana than you normally need, like you could cast a death 4 spells and a matter 2 or prime 2 spell in one
April 14, 2019 12:01AMJessica: ((if that was a hint at me i don't think i have anything reflexive i can do for you))
April 14, 2019 12:02AM (To Eve K.): you can combine any 2 effects into one, from Death 4, Matter 2, Prime 2 effect
April 14, 2019 12:02AM (From Eve K.): so I need to pull up prime sight to use quell spark, and I want to put more shadows on Not-kurtis. I have rotes both. Are each roll at -2?
April 14, 2019 12:03AM (To Eve K.): you cant cast anything that costs mana, since you dont have any
April 14, 2019 12:03AM (From Eve K.): neither costs mana
April 14, 2019 12:03AM (To Eve K.): you make only 1 roll, with the lowest of the rolls at -2
April 14, 2019 12:03AM (To Eve K.): whichever of the two, prime sight or shadows is lower, you roll that
April 14, 2019 12:04AM (From Eve K.): Prime sight in this case
April 14, 2019 12:04AMJessica: ((how big was your stifle the spark spell?))
April 14, 2019 12:04AM (From Eve K.): do I have to split sucesses?
April 14, 2019 12:04AM (To Eve K.): no, successes affect both spells
April 14, 2019 12:04AMJessica: ((*quell))
April 14, 2019 12:04AMEve K.: ((Quell spark. I have to have prime sight up first))
Eve K. takes a deep breath, closing her eyes to try and remove distractions, her fingertips twitch slightly as she mutters in Atlantian "Let me see the unseen and shadow his vision"
April 14, 2019 12:06AM (To Jessica): you can cast Perfect Timing, Time 1 on me. I get to add your result to my next roll, which i most certainly will be using to resist venom
April 14, 2019 12:06AMEve K.: (Combined cast of Supernal vision and summon shadows rotes. 10 - 2 penalty = 8
burning a willpower, now at 2
rolling 11d10>8!
= 3 Successes
okay
April 14, 2019 12:07AM (From Jessica): ((kk))
April 14, 2019 12:08AMEve K.: shadows strength 2 durability 1
April 14, 2019 12:08AMGM (GM): Okay, you have supernal vision, and draw where the Shadows go. With 3 successes your shadow precision is partial, it will affect everyone in the chosen area.
But you can make the area as small as 1 person
April 14, 2019 12:09AM (From Jessica): now?
April 14, 2019 12:09AMGM (GM): Their attacks would have to deal with 1 durability as a barrier
April 14, 2019 12:10AMEve K.: plus complete darkness
April 14, 2019 12:10AM (To Jessica): nevermind, you cant do it before Slabod goes. Good luck. I hope you have a better idea. Mine was dumb
April 14, 2019 12:10AMGM (GM): Ok, he is gonna be fighting blind then
Eve K. opens her eyes as they glimmer for a moment, tendrils of shadow slowly creeping up around Slabod covering him in a inky blackness both marking him as him and blinding him
April 14, 2019 12:11AMJustin: ((Who goes first, Kurt or Slabod? If Kurt goes first can you delay it until after the swing?))
April 14, 2019 12:11AMEve K.: ((kurt already went))
April 14, 2019 12:12AMJessica: ((kurt went already, now it's slabod and egor))
April 14, 2019 12:12AMJustin: ((Gotcha.))
April 14, 2019 12:12AMJessica: *Ivan
April 14, 2019 12:12AMEve K.: ((Ivan is next))
April 14, 2019 12:12AMJessica: Kurtis, Egor (looks like Dante), Dante, Eve, Ivan, Slabod (looks like Kurtis), Justin, Jessica
April 14, 2019 12:14AMGM (GM): Shadows envelope the evil Kurtis, as we hear "Huyarim do kontsa! Bei ih!"
April 14, 2019 12:14AMIvan: Ivan is really not feeling good and will attempt to heal himself for all he's got.
April 14, 2019 12:15AMJessica: ((no successes))
April 14, 2019 12:16AMIvan: He is at a -2 penalty
but he will use his willpower to survive this!
rolling 9d10>8!
= 1 Success
He attempts to fight his way out of the shadow's grapple, by trying to contest the grapple control
actually, can he? if he did an action?
i'm not sure he can, so he stays there.
April 14, 2019 12:18AMIvan: "Aaaaaaah! Gorrru kurwa! Balatai goru, tvari!!!!"
April 14, 2019 12:18AMDante: ((If the victim has yet to act in the turn, he may try and break loose at his stage of Initiative. Alternatively, the target may try to turn the tables on his attacker and perform an overpowering grappling maneuver of his own. In either case, roll Strength + Brawl, but the attacker’s Strength is subtracted from the dice))
April 14, 2019 12:19AMGM (GM): ((reflexive?))
April 14, 2019 12:19AMDante: ((yet to act I think implies action, but it doesn't specify))
April 14, 2019 12:19AMIvan: ((he acted, so no))
April 14, 2019 12:20AMJessica: ((complainers on onyx path forums are asking for a rules change so people who are grappled can act after breaking grapple, i think that implies it's an action but i'm still reading))
April 14, 2019 12:21AMSlabod: ((let's say it's an action, let's move on))
April 14, 2019 12:21AMDante: ((Ye, wrestling out of a hold seems like it takes 3 seconds to me))
April 14, 2019 12:21AMSlabod: Ok, so Slabod will choose a random direction. He has 3 people around him. Eve, Jess, and Kurt. So he rolls a d4, 1 is nobody, 2 is Kurt, 3 is Eve, 4 is Jess
unleashes an epic breakdance/kungfu combo into the shadows
April 14, 2019 12:23AMEve K.: (the shadows are shadow enough to take it)
April 14, 2019 12:23AMJessica: ((nothing personnel, kid))
April 14, 2019 12:23AMSlabod: His venomous fists fly through the shadows harmlessly though, not affecting its structure, for it has none.
April 14, 2019 12:24AMEve K.: (can't poison an absence of light)
April 14, 2019 12:24AMGM (GM): Justin counterspelled an evil spell trying to kill Kurtis, and turn is to Jessica.
April 14, 2019 12:25AMJessica: last mana on Perfect Timing on Kurt
Int+Comp+Time=8
rolling 8d10>8!
= 5 Successes
April 14, 2019 12:26AMDante: ((5 extra dice???))
April 14, 2019 12:27AMJessica: ((Each success grants the mage a single extra die in the next roll that has to — or is chosen to — be made. This does not include spellcasting rolls.))
April 14, 2019 12:27AMDante: ((holy moly))
April 14, 2019 12:27AMJessica: ((missed that last part))
April 14, 2019 12:27AMDante: ((could be huge))
April 14, 2019 12:27AMJessica: ((whack him real hard with your Great Value Lightsaber))
April 14, 2019 12:28AMGM (GM): ((i dont believe you have the rote though, unless i am mistaken))
April 14, 2019 12:28AMJessica: ((ah fuck, you're correct. i have used it before though, lemme see if i can just buy with xp))
((yeah I have the xp if you're cool with me buying))
((i will reroll if you want though))
April 14, 2019 12:30AMGM (GM): ((you can buy it mid combat but will have to reroll :) ))
((go ahead and mark it))
April 14, 2019 12:30AMJessica: kk
rolling 8d10>8!
= 3 Successes
April 14, 2019 12:31AMGM (GM): Not bad!
April 14, 2019 12:32AMJessica: ((whoop))
April 14, 2019 12:34AMGM (GM): Jessica, you evaluate the flow of time through the battle and tune in to the passage of individual moments, establishing a beat on Slabod's movements, and Egor's spellcasting.
((I actually believe it buffs your next turn. Not sure if it can be cast on another.))
April 14, 2019 12:34AMJessica: ((fair enough.))
April 14, 2019 12:35AMGM (GM): The spell weaves itself, and as you focus on Kurtis and aim to aid him, it heightens your own focus and awareness of his timing and movement.
April 14, 2019 12:35AMJessica: ((kurt still has 9 again on 3 more rolls))
April 14, 2019 12:35AMGM (GM): ((yup))
April 14, 2019 12:35AMDante: ((now you can pull a tristin on Slabod though. Good luck))
April 14, 2019 12:35AMGM (GM): And it's back to top of the order, unless you want to move.
April 14, 2019 12:36AMJessica: Nah I'm out of mana so it'll be shorty punches next
April 14, 2019 12:36AMGM (GM): Ok, Slabod is under "fighting blind" rules, so his martial defense no longer applies, meaning only his magical defenses do.
April 14, 2019 12:36AMJessica: niiice
April 14, 2019 12:40AMKurtis Kerner: Another willful attempt to use willpower, and an upward strike with aim to cut Slabod somewhere in the artery. Since the man is now covered in shadow, it's an approximate strike, but a strike enough.
Same rote against same target, so at -1, and -5 for defense
April 14, 2019 12:41AMGM (GM): ((btw some paradox rolls which we totally been ignoring lol))
((its my fault))

April 14, 2019 12:46AMJessica: ((the baddie bads tried to take control so justin ended the spell))
April 14, 2019 12:46AMEve K.: ((THATS right))
April 14, 2019 12:46AMJessica: ((they are bits of upholstery and stuffing all over the garage))
April 14, 2019 12:46AMEve K.: ((yes I remember now))
April 14, 2019 12:46AMGM (GM): Okay, so the only correction here is, when the venom spikes pop on him, and he cries out, all semblance of reasoning and humanity is gone from him, he's become completely and overwhelmingly obsessed with revenge and murder.
April 14, 2019 12:46AMEve K.: ((XD))
((so... pretty close to the same))
April 14, 2019 12:47AMJessica: ((yeah))
April 14, 2019 12:47AMDante: ((So now instead of FOR BELLA its "FOR BLAEHWFIAHFH"))
April 14, 2019 12:48AMGM (GM): ((he gained Irrationality derangement for the rest of the fight, he will fight recklessly, aggressively, not defend, and go all attack on whoever he can))
((yes, exactly))
((he also will not flee if his team urges him, he will kill us all or die here))
((unless of course dominated))
April 14, 2019 12:48AMJessica: ((dominate him Dante))
April 14, 2019 12:48AMGM (GM): NOW, Kurt strikes
it's a 10 with 9 again
April 14, 2019 12:49AMDante: ((It worked very well the last couple of times :) ))
April 14, 2019 12:49AMJessica: ((practice makes perfect?))
April 14, 2019 12:50AMDante: ((I don't want to keep bashing my head against the same wall, but I will probably do that))
April 14, 2019 12:50AMGM (GM): str 3 + sword 4 + forces 5 + wep 2 + wp 3 - 6 = 11
11
April 14, 2019 12:51AMKurtis Kerner: rolling 11d10>8!>9
= 4 Successes
April 14, 2019 12:51AMGM (GM): Blood and bit of fire fly out of the shadow, and a growl escapes Slabod, but the shadow still stands.
April 14, 2019 12:52AMEgor (Dante form): rolling 10d10>8!
= 1 Success
rolling 2d10>8!
= 0 Successes
Egor's right hand turns into a giant scorpion stinger and he aims at Kurtis.
April 14, 2019 12:53AMGM (GM): Dante.
April 14, 2019 12:54AMDante: ((same spell on slabod would be a -1 penalty right?))
April 14, 2019 12:54AMGM (GM): ((yes))
April 14, 2019 12:54AMDante: ((Yea alright fuck it))
Dante, face creased with frustration, attempts to dominate Slabod, seeing the wild shift in demeanor. 'Give in. Kill the man with the scorpion hand.' ((8 + 3wp - 1 recast = 10))
rolling 10d10>8!
= 4 Successes
((resolve+gnosis))
((wait for it))
April 14, 2019 12:57AMEve K.: ((
closes eyes crosses fingers))
April 14, 2019 12:58AMGM (GM): ((was looking if derangement affects his resolve, it does not))
April 14, 2019 12:58AMDante: ((His particular derangement is purely RP themed))
April 14, 2019 12:58AMSlabod: rolling 8d10>8!
= 2 Successes
April 14, 2019 12:59AMDante: ((...god dammit he's blind. Turn over.))
April 14, 2019 12:59AMEve K.: ((tell him to drop his spells?))
April 14, 2019 12:59AMJessica: ((can't eve make him sighted again?))
April 14, 2019 12:59AMSlabod: ((guide me, oh telepathic lord, to the man with the scorpion hand!))
April 14, 2019 1:00AMDante: ((that'd be kind of a metagamey retcon))
April 14, 2019 1:00AMJessica: ((well you're mind linked))
April 14, 2019 1:00AMEve K.: ((that's true...))
April 14, 2019 1:00AMDante: ((True.))
April 14, 2019 1:00AMSlabod: ((did Dante speak the order or issued it telepathically?))
April 14, 2019 1:00AMDante: ((That was through the link yes))
April 14, 2019 1:01AMGM (GM): It's Eve's turn
April 14, 2019 1:01AMDante: 'He's.. right over there.' ((you know, in THAT direction))
April 14, 2019 1:02AMGM (GM): ((yeah he's still gonna have to roll for direction XD))
April 14, 2019 1:02AMDante: ((no shit))
April 14, 2019 1:02AMEve K.: ((does the whole mind link hear the order?))
April 14, 2019 1:02AMGM (GM): ((up to DC))
April 14, 2019 1:03AMJessica: ((I feel like thinking is a free action XD))
April 14, 2019 1:03AMDante: ((If its possible to communicate with one at a time, which we have done before, then it'd have just been to him.))
((Ya thinking is the freest action of all.))
April 14, 2019 1:03AMJessica: ((yeah but can't you think to her to drop the blindness?))
((it's still her turn before he acts))
April 14, 2019 1:04AMDante: 'Oh yeah by the way I got this sudden realization that I should mention that he can't see but I told him to kill his friend and I think he wants to do it.' April 14, 2019 1:05AMEve K.: "Good to know, I'll move the shadows" April 14, 2019 1:05AMJustin: "Great communication guys." Eve K. wills the shadows the slither away from Slabod and onto Egor, she then studies Slabod to determine which spells he has on him in preparation for quell the spark
April 14, 2019 1:06AMGM (GM): You can do so reflexively
no roll required
April 14, 2019 1:07AMJessica: ((man blindness is fucking powerful))
April 14, 2019 1:07AMGM (GM): Shadows envelope Egor
Okay, so here's what you see for spells, Eve
April 14, 2019 1:11AMDante: ((I guess going forward unless I specify that I'm talking to someone directly, assume its to the whole network. Might reduce future technicality discussion about it later.))
April 14, 2019 1:11AMEve K.: ((can I tell how strong the spells are?))
April 14, 2019 1:13AMGM (GM): ((Hmmmm. How would the character know in terms of numbers....))
((Ok. So. Forces Shield on Ivan is medium potency, Ultimate Honing is strong, Organic Resilience is incredibly strong, and Venom Skin is super weak
Egor's Aura is also in your Supernal Vision, so you can see that Egor's personal organic resilience is weaker than Slabod's, but stronger than Slabod's Ultimate Honing
April 14, 2019 1:16AMEve K.: (so all the ultimate honings Slabod cast are the same strength?
April 14, 2019 1:17AMGM (GM): (yes)
April 14, 2019 1:18AM (From Justin): (Why does he have forces shield and organic resilience? They protect from the same things.)
April 14, 2019 1:19AMGM (GM): (ok now mind you, you have no Life arcana, so this is taking you time to piece together, you dont have the exacts, unless Justin pools in his knowledge within the network, if he could see what you see, he'd tell quicker))
Eve K. mutters aloud "They have a lot of spells piled up on them." then in Atlantian "May your false strength dissolve as the mana it's made from"
April 14, 2019 1:19AM (To Justin): Can you not have multiple shields on?
April 14, 2019 1:20AMEve K.: Quell spark on Slabod's Ultimate Honing on self
rolling 12d10>8!
= 2 Successes
(well that won't do it))
April 14, 2019 1:20AMGM (GM): Doesn't do it.
April 14, 2019 1:20AM (From Justin): You can, but they don't stack potency. Like, if you have both shields up, they'd need to both be dispelled which can be good.
April 14, 2019 1:20AMJustin: Also, you could have Mind and Forces to protect you against both forms of attack. Organic Resilience explicitly protects against forces though.
()
(Was whispering but roll20 split my response.)
April 14, 2019 1:21AM (To Justin): can you pls point where it says magic armor doesnt stack? We have been stacking them for our team all the time, i feel like this is very important for the future
April 14, 2019 1:22AM (To Justin): it makes sense that they all stack, cause different arcana are being used, different phenomena protect the person
April 14, 2019 1:25AMEve K.: (end turn sorry.)
April 14, 2019 1:27AM (From Justin): Page 128
April 14, 2019 1:27AMJustin: April 14, 2019 1:27AM (From Justin): "In addition, multiple spells with the same effect on the same target do not "stack" or accumulate. Only the spell with the highest Potency takes precedence. The other spells of the same kind remain, and may take effect if the Duration of the most potent spell expires, but they have no effect on Spell Tolerance until then."
April 14, 2019 1:27AMJustin: So, if you have two different mage armors on you would get the benefit of one at a time just like if you have two spells on you that both increase your Strength attribute, you only get one bonus.
((Whispering sucks.))
April 14, 2019 1:29AMGM (GM): ((ok good to know, so for fire resistance, they degenerate one after the other then. And for his explosion, I believe we only rolled his defense + organic resilience, so all good))
Ivan will try to heal himself again. At -1 for repeat, and then -2 for having limited sensory perception, so that brings him to -3
rolling 8d10>8!
= 2 Successes
And at the end of his turn, Eve, if you look at Ivan's direction in the fire and shadows, one of his spells deteriorates
Ummmmm so it's Slabod's turn
And i'm confused.
April 14, 2019 1:39AMGM (GM): So Slabod is very angry, he is dominated to "Attack and kill the man with the scorpion hand", which is Egor, but Egor's form is now covered in shadow, so Slabod doesn't know who that is.
So, being unable to determine this himself, he yells "Which one of you fuckers has a scorpion arm?!"
April 14, 2019 1:40AMEve K.: ((He's still shaped like a man with a scorpian hand, just.. all black.. like... Jorg))
((that's what the line on him is that I drew. It a scorpion arm))
April 14, 2019 1:41AMJessica: ((I assumed he could see him for a second or two given that the blackness had to move from one to the other))
April 14, 2019 1:41AMGM (GM): ((it's a patch of darkness, as per rulebook))
((with tendrils in it))
April 14, 2019 1:41AMDante: "The man in the shadows has a scorpion hand."
April 14, 2019 1:42AMEve K.: By conjuring up such impenetrable
and even animate shadows from light, a
Free Council mage can create a barrier
that serves as cover against rangedweapon
attacks, he can conjure a specter
to frighten off an intruder, or he can
April 14, 2019 1:42AMEve K.: wield a battering ram to fell a door.
April 14, 2019 1:42AMDante: ((Episode 39: Everything Goes Wrong edition))
April 14, 2019 1:42AMEve K.: (its a shadow that Eve controls the shape and size of))
Eve K. shakes her head slightly "He's that one there in all black"
April 14, 2019 1:44AMSlabod: unleashes a series of attacks on Egor, whose defense for this is 4, since he can't see. this will suck, Egor is prolly gonna die
April 14, 2019 1:45AMJessica: ((Poor Egor))
April 14, 2019 1:45AMEve K.: ((Kinda the point))
April 14, 2019 1:45AMSlabod: rolling 10d10>8!
= 2 Successes
April 14, 2019 1:45AMEve K.: ((they trying to kill us))
April 14, 2019 1:45AMSlabod: rolling 9d10>8!
= 2 Successes
rolling 8d10>8!
= 3 Successes
rolling 7d10>8!
= 3 Successes
April 14, 2019 1:46AMEgor (Dante form): screams and falls, covered in blood and shadow April 14, 2019 1:46AMEve K.: ((in the immortal words of Captain Mal "If someone tries to kill you, you try to kill'em right back")
April 14, 2019 1:47AMEgor (Dante form): It's a brutal scene, Egor does his best to blindly defend.
April 14, 2019 1:47AMGM (GM): Justin's turn
April 14, 2019 1:48AMJessica: ((shirt to acid))
April 14, 2019 1:48AMJustin: Can Justin walk to the car over there and unscrew the gas tank cap in a movement?
April 14, 2019 1:48AMEve K.: ((Isn't it on fire?))
April 14, 2019 1:49AMGM (GM): which car? the one he is next to?
April 14, 2019 1:49AMJustin: Yeah, this one.
April 14, 2019 1:49AMGM (GM): sure, the gas tank is on the side that's not on fire, it's in the back
April 14, 2019 1:49AMJustin: So there?
April 14, 2019 1:50AMGM (GM): yeah
April 14, 2019 1:50AMJustin: Justin jogs over to the car and unscrews the gas tank, reaching within with his will in order to animate the gasoline and send it out to cover Slabod.
Shape Liquid -1 Dex is 5
rolling 5d10>8!
= 2 Successes
2 successes is gas-tank size.
April 14, 2019 1:53AMGM (GM): Ok, you unscrew the cap, and reach in, and the gasoline starts coming out. It will reach Slabod and coat him next turn.
it's pooling in the air now, in the midst of this
everyone, you can see this, mid action
Jessica
April 14, 2019 1:55AMJustin: DOn't forget vulgar.
April 14, 2019 1:55AM (To Justin): do you have your detect life presence still up?
April 14, 2019 1:55AMGM (GM): oh yeah
rolling 2d10>8!
= 0 Successes
all good
April 14, 2019 1:55AM (From Justin): I didn't have that spell up, just Life magic sight.
April 14, 2019 1:55AM (From Justin): I can see life spells going out though.
April 14, 2019 1:56AM (To Justin): yeah sorry this wont help
April 14, 2019 1:56AM (From Justin): From what I understand they each have some spells cast. If they die those would go out. If they don't go out, I'd know they're still alive.
April 14, 2019 1:56AMJessica: Jessica flinches back from Slabod's attack on Egor. Even without being able to see it, just hearing the impacts and seeing him attack to kill like that right in front of her was jarring. She was out of mana, and tired. But they had to finish this or get finished. ((how do I roll a mundane attack, a kick?))
April 14, 2019 1:57AM (To Justin): Oh hey okay! Okay, there's a tingle, and you feel a presence of another life spell enter the premise from somewhere in the direction of the row of cars (blue arrow), cant exactly tell
April 14, 2019 1:58AMGM (GM): Strength + Brawl
+ 3
for perfect timing
April 14, 2019 1:58AMJustin: Justin's voice echoes into the mind link. "We have another life spell approaching from further into the parking garage. Might be the sniper." April 14, 2019 1:59AMJessica: Kicking Slabod. Don't want to try punching since he has those spines
rolling 3d10>8!
= 2 Successes
April 14, 2019 1:59AMGM (GM): Jessica, what kind of shoes are you wearing?
April 14, 2019 1:59AMJessica: ((sneakers I'm pretty sure))
((unless they were part of the goth wardrobe))
April 14, 2019 2:00AMGM (GM): ((Marcella would like to know what kind of feet you're wearing too))
April 14, 2019 2:00AMJessica: ((I'd totes post a pic of my foot in here))
April 14, 2019 2:00AMEve K.: ((what did Jessica get back dressed in? the goth cloths?))
((Because the goth cloths would have matching boots yes))
April 14, 2019 2:01AMJessica: ((okay then boots))
April 14, 2019 2:02AM (From Eve K.): how is the roll 3 if the + from perfect timing is 3? she has 0 strength 0 brawl?
April 14, 2019 2:02AMGM (GM): You kick Slabod hard and you feel that his body is way harder than you'd expect it to be, it feels like kicking a giant turtle.
April 14, 2019 2:02AM (To Eve K.): she subbed his defense
April 14, 2019 2:02AM (From Eve K.): ahh right
April 14, 2019 2:03AMEve K.: ((if there is a picture of a foot in facebook chat I swear to mormon god...))
April 14, 2019 2:03AMGM (GM): It's a new round.... and
someone joins the party
April 14, 2019 2:03AMJessica: ((there might be))
April 14, 2019 2:03AMEve K.: (( -_- ))
April 14, 2019 2:03AMGM (GM): rolling 1d10 + 8

April 14, 2019 2:04AMKurtis Kerner: is not in the real mind link, that was fake kurt so, attacks Slabod, with 10 dice now and 9-again
rolling 10d10>8!>9

April 14, 2019 2:05AMGM (GM): Slabod is starting to look pretty bad
Dante
April 14, 2019 2:09AMJessica: ((is asleep?))
April 14, 2019 2:10AMJustin: ((Dante reserves turn?))
April 14, 2019 2:10AMGM (GM): ((sounds good))
Eve
((sorry i know night times are hard on folks))
April 14, 2019 2:12AMEve K.: ((I'm thinking just a moment))
April 14, 2019 2:14AMJessica: ((could speed up gasoline from the car?))
((or your kill spell))
April 14, 2019 2:15AMEve K.: ((don't want to mess up Justin's spell))
April 14, 2019 2:15AMJustin: ((Maybe go for a straight damage spell?))
April 14, 2019 2:16AMJessica: ((we are about to have company))
April 14, 2019 2:17AMGM (GM): ((does anyone warn kurt outloud?))
((you'd know he's not in mind link))
April 14, 2019 2:17AMJustin: ((Not sure that'd help us.))
((It'd tip off Slabod and crew that they have reinforcements.))
April 14, 2019 2:18AMJessica: ((is morale a factor for two blind guys and an enthralled dude?))
April 14, 2019 2:18AMGM (GM): ((let me look back at something from the past))
((fuck))
((has justin ever seen kurtis bounce bullets?))
April 14, 2019 2:19AMJustin: ((No.))
((Literally everyone else knows about it though.)
((So they can say something.))
Eve K. moves the shadows back onto Slabod, muttering in Atlantian "May your borrowed strength drift away on the wind"
April 14, 2019 2:21AMEve K.: (quell spark again at -1)
rolling 11d10>8!
= 5 Successes
April 14, 2019 2:21AMJessica: ((YASS))
April 14, 2019 2:21AMEve K.: (better))
April 14, 2019 2:21AMGM (GM): which spell are you dispelling again?
April 14, 2019 2:21AMEve K.: Ultimate honing
April 14, 2019 2:21AMGM (GM): it drops like a box of nails
April 14, 2019 2:23AM (From Justin): ((Friendly reminder that any stamina boosts he has on would die, causing damage to fill up.))
April 14, 2019 2:23AMGM (GM): This drops Slabod's initiative in the roster
Eve K. steps away from Slabod as far as she can
April 14, 2019 2:24AMEve K.: (end turn)
April 14, 2019 2:27AMJessica: ((are we all asleep?))
April 14, 2019 2:28AMJustin: ((I'm not.))
April 14, 2019 2:28AMGM (GM): ((I'm calculating, he's close to death, because this dropped his stamina, hold on))
Ok he's looking reeeeeeally shitty, he's wailing all tiredly and bloodied, only his will alone is pushing him to still stand
April 14, 2019 2:29AMSlabod: "Fuck you.... fuck you all.... damn you all to hell.... you ffffucks..."
April 14, 2019 2:31AMIvan: Ivan is going to try to get out of the van, for which he needs a 4 on a grapple check i believe. He can't outheal the fire and he can't help his boss if he's in the wreck.
rolling 9d10>8!
= 4 Successes
roll for the shadow?
April 14, 2019 2:32AMEve K.: (just straight strength?)
April 14, 2019 2:32AMIvan: or do i just subtract 4?
breaking free of a str 4 grapple
oh i have to do 9-4
so 5 dice
rolling 5d10>8!

Nope, he can't break free, aaaand he dies.

April 14, 2019 2:36AMKurtis Kerner: "Aaaakhrrr!!!"
April 14, 2019 2:36AMEve K.: (the real kurtis this time)
April 14, 2019 2:37AMSlabod: Slabod is in a frenzy. He could heal himself and live, but a good attack on Kurtis will kill the bloodthirsty fiend that killed his friends and his girl.
April 14, 2019 2:38AMJustin: ((Is Egor dead?))
April 14, 2019 2:38AMSlabod: He's willing to fuck it all and perish if he can take Kurt with him....
Egor is dead
No more scorpion hand person
April 14, 2019 2:38AMEve K.: (slabod and the sniper are the only ones alive)
April 14, 2019 2:38AMJustin: ((Dante nap is gonna kill Kurtis.))
April 14, 2019 2:38AMSlabod: Scorpion person being dead, Slabod is free to resume his primary directive
April 14, 2019 2:38AMDante: ((I just woke up a minute ago, catching up.))
April 14, 2019 2:38AMJessica: WAIT
April 14, 2019 2:38AMSlabod: Oh thank god
April 14, 2019 2:39AMJessica: ((Dante is a mind mage but Eric is Acanthus))
April 14, 2019 2:40AMDante: ((I dont know what that means. Dante will cut in here I guess. Slabod and sniper that conveniently just now arrived are all that's left?))
April 14, 2019 2:40AMSlabod: ((yup))
April 14, 2019 2:40AMJessica: ((it means you woke up in time to save Kurtis))
April 14, 2019 2:41AMDante: ((no pressure. Is there a way I can determine if Slabod is close to death or if I should just keep on bashing my head into the mind control wall?))
April 14, 2019 2:42AMSlabod: he looks very very very badly injured, he's covered in burns and blood, and there is a bubble of gasoline floating towards him that will hit him in like a second, he is also drained of his vigor April 14, 2019 2:45AMJessica: ((Dante did you fall asleep again?))
April 14, 2019 2:47AMDante: ((No I'm trying to wrap my head around turn order in my groggy state. Fuck it. I don't want to keep holding everything up. -2 for repeat again?))
April 14, 2019 2:47AMJessica: ((we decided you held your action))
April 14, 2019 2:48AMJustin: ((I'd just kill him.))
April 14, 2019 2:48AMJessica: ((and slabod lost stats so dropped in the initiative order))
April 14, 2019 2:48AMSlabod: ((-2 for repeat yeah. You held action and you're going before he is))
April 14, 2019 2:48AMJessica: ((Eve killed one of his buffs))
April 14, 2019 2:49AMDante: ((Actually I will do something different, yeah.))
*At the crack of gunfire, Dante will reach behind and flick out the revolver from under his clothing, brandishing it with practiced haste and take a shot at Slabod. (Quickdraw and my dice is... 9 - armor?)
April 14, 2019 2:50AMSlabod: his resilience is 5, so at -5, willpower can apply
April 14, 2019 2:51AMDante: ((9 - 2 then))

((better than trying to overcome his resolve and gnosis again and failing again.))
'Get to cover, the sniper returned!'
((where'd the shot come from?))
April 14, 2019 2:54AMSlabod: his armored forehead cracks as a hole appears in it, blood flies free, and the back of his head explodes, or if Dante is all for honorable polite killings, it's a shot through the heart. Slabod drops dead. April 14, 2019 2:54AMDante: ((no his face))
April 14, 2019 2:54AMEve K.: ((XD))
April 14, 2019 2:54AMGM (GM): ((shot came from direction of blue arrow, cause Kurt stumbled back))
As Slabod falls, a liquid cloud of gasoline splashes on him and coats his body.
April 14, 2019 2:55AMDante: (the boxes by Justin are more cars right? Dante will move behind one.)
April 14, 2019 2:55AMGM (GM): And it's Justin's turn
yes they are cars
the car Justin is by, has gasoline like, oozing through the air onto Slabod from its tank
like a fountain
April 14, 2019 2:56AMJustin: How much info does Justin know about the whereabouts of dudebro?
April 14, 2019 2:57AMGM (GM): well if you put up your detect life you might get more, but since you only sense the spell that keeps him looking like kurtis, just kinda that way
April 14, 2019 2:58AMJustin: Gotcha.
April 14, 2019 2:58AMGM (GM): the sound of the gunfire helped, but it's like, all the cars are car-alarm-ing
April 14, 2019 2:58AMJustin: Gonna duck behind car and scour my pattern for a turn.
April 14, 2019 2:58AMGM (GM): so it's a cacophony in here
April 14, 2019 2:58AMJustin: - Stamina.
April 14, 2019 2:58AMGM (GM): BEEP BEEP WOOEEE WOOEEE
ok, scoured. which makes it 3
right?
April 14, 2019 2:59AMJustin: That takes a whole turn yeah.
April 14, 2019 2:59AMGM (GM): ok
Jessica
April 14, 2019 3:01AMJessica: Dante pops Slabod in the face with a bullet and runs for cover, but Jessica is frozen in place for a moment after seeing someone
get shot in the fucking face. "Oh my god. Oh my god." What to do? Out of mana. Shot him in the face. The guy can shoot through walls. Can he shoot through cars? Shot him in the face. She gets her shit together enough to follow Dante behind cover but she's starting to get wigged out. "What do we do?"
April 14, 2019 3:01AM (To Justin): Oh. "The number of times a mage can scour his Pattern within the same 24-hour period depends on his Gnosis. At Gnosis 1 to 4, he can do so only once."
April 14, 2019 3:02AM (From Justin): Fuck me.
April 14, 2019 3:02AM (To Justin): you should do something else
April 14, 2019 3:02AM (From Justin): Life sight then.
April 14, 2019 3:03AMGM (GM): Ok, a retcon by Justin, he can't scour pattern more than once per 24 hours, so he puts up Life Sight
roll it
April 14, 2019 3:03AMJustin: rolling 7d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 14, 2019 3:04AMGM (GM): You sense the life presence of this dude at the very end of the garage row, fucker is staying cleverly outside of spell range, spells range 200 meters, his rifle is more than that
April 14, 2019 3:04AMDante: 'Have to get a bead on his location and get out of range. Unsure if we are behind safe cover. Stay calm, we will pull through.' Dante's tone within the network is terse, but not without empathy. April 14, 2019 3:05AMJustin: "He's all the way in the back of the garage, behind the back row of cars. He's further out than most spells have range."
April 14, 2019 3:05AMKurtis Kerner: looks to Dante, then to Justin, and nods, a crooked smile on his face "Okay."
April 14, 2019 3:05AMEve K.: ((how hurt does Kurtis look?))
April 14, 2019 3:06AMJustin: ((5/9))
April 14, 2019 3:06AMKurtis Kerner: ((yup))
April 14, 2019 3:06AMJessica: ((probably can't take another bullet i'd guess))
April 14, 2019 3:06AMJustin: ((No, not at all.))
April 14, 2019 3:07AMKurtis Kerner: walks into the middle of the driveway, assuming a cocky attitude April 14, 2019 3:07AMJessica: ((wtf))
April 14, 2019 3:07AMKurtis Kerner: "Just you left! Come out where ever you are! It's me you want, right? Is it worth dying for Bella? Cause we're gonna find you and kill you just like them."
April 14, 2019 3:08AMJessica: Is he fucking trying to sacrifice himself? April 14, 2019 3:08AMKurtis Kerner: Turn Projectile: Dexterity + Athletics + Forces + Ring + Willpower = 4 + 3 + 5 + 1 + 3 = 16
with my last 9 again
rolling 16d10>8!>9
= 6 Successes
April 14, 2019 3:09AMJustin: ((Not bad.))
April 14, 2019 3:09AMKurtis Kerner: But the sniper doesn't know it.
April 14, 2019 3:10AMGM (GM): Dante is next
April 14, 2019 3:10AMDante: ((Oh so I resume my previous position in turn order?))
April 14, 2019 3:10AMGM (GM): ((yeah, we called you falling asleep as holding action))
April 14, 2019 3:10AMDante: ((eh yeah))
((Is Kurtis still shielded? Can I even know that?))
April 14, 2019 3:14AMGM (GM): ((Kurtis has your mind shield on him yes))
April 14, 2019 3:15AMDante: ((the mental shield, got it.))
Dante, unsure of what Kurtis' game is, reaches out with his unarmed hand to wrap the threads of space in a protective layer around him. His fingers pinch and drag the space in front of him as if shaping an invisible cocoon. (Untouchable impromptu = 7)
rolling 7d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 14, 2019 3:17AMGM (GM): 4 points of space armor, recorded
space folds around Kurtis before restoring to normal alignment
April 14, 2019 3:18AMDante: '
I am open to suggestions on where the fuck we are going from here.' Dante is scanning the area, but won't move this turn.
April 14, 2019 3:18AMGM (GM): Eve
April 14, 2019 3:18AMJessica: ((Eve still has gun bag))
April 14, 2019 3:19AMEve K.: ((yup))
((pretty sure there's no sniper rifile in it))
April 14, 2019 3:19AMJessica: ((we also need sturdier cover))
April 14, 2019 3:19AMDante: ((agree))
April 14, 2019 3:20AMEve K.: ((we also need to get our stories ready for when the cops show back up))
April 14, 2019 3:20AMKurtis Kerner: ((I got a story for them, invisibility. Pretty sure Dante can also tell em many stories))
April 14, 2019 3:20AMDante: ((oh that was exploded when we got here, honest))
April 14, 2019 3:21AMJessica: ((it was the dead people))
((they blew shit up and shot each other))
((or better yet we're gone already))
April 14, 2019 3:21AMDante: ((thats preferable)
April 14, 2019 3:22AMGM (GM): Jessica, you feel that whatever Kurtis is doing, your luck is aiding him in the gambit. The lucky coin shivers a little, before its charge goes out.
Eve K. draws the shadows in front of the car everyone is hiding behind to make a black space the sniper can't see through, over the mind link "How are we getting out of here? I can drag us through twilight but it will take me a bit to get the gate open."
April 14, 2019 3:24AMDante: ((the right exit, where does that lead?))
April 14, 2019 3:24AMGM (GM): ((It's like, the elevator up to the hotel lobby))
((the left exit is to the street))
Eve K. moves up to the group hiding behind her shadows to watch kurtis, attempts to put an entropic guard on him just for extra protection
April 14, 2019 3:26AMEve K.: (no I don't no mana XD)
(just kidding)
(wait yes I do mana is only to keep it up the whole day)
rolling 12d10>8!
= 7 Successes
(okay then)
April 14, 2019 3:29AMGM (GM): Is there a visual effect to this shield?
How does it look?
April 14, 2019 3:30AMEve K.: (it looks like a sphere of decay circling around him, eating up stray energy)
April 14, 2019 3:31AMSniper: Oh man, the sniper is in for a loop. He's observing us through the scope, having no way to scrutinize our spells due to range. He almost didn't pick Kurtis, such an open taunt, a bait. He suspected he's up to something, so he was going to go for one of the people behind the car. Shadows covering the car don't save them much from heat vision, but all the fires do.
But then, Dante's space shield reflects as it registers on the sniper's scope as an air ripple, and Eve's entropic guard layers on top of it, so the Sniper is thinking that Kurtis put up a simple shield trying to draw him out, to look for the muzzle flash. Sniper however, is using a flash hider attachment, so he knows he won't make a flash, and he's pretty confident that he can kill Kurtis even through that space warping shield and whatever else. From his point of you, it's free damage anyway. He does not know about potency 6 turn projectile. So, he fires at Kurtis.
rolling 12d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 14, 2019 3:33AMJessica: ...
April 14, 2019 3:33AMEve K.: (well.. that was something)
April 14, 2019 3:33AMJessica: ((SCRUB))
April 14, 2019 3:34AMDante: ((suddenly I empathize with the sniper))
April 14, 2019 3:34AMJessica: ((lol))
April 14, 2019 3:35AMGM (GM): Kurt meets the bullet open palmed and the bullet slams into it, and redirects exactly 180 degrees, going, PING-PONG, and hits the rifle, destroying it, and revealing the shooter's position. That for sure makes a spark.
I don't know if i should roll damage for when the bullet is going back at the guy
cause if he takes the damage from that bullet, he may pass out
April 14, 2019 3:35AMDante: ((1 point of persistent embarassment damage))
April 14, 2019 3:36AMJessica: ((derangement))
April 14, 2019 3:36AMEve K.: (and the problem with that is?)
April 14, 2019 3:36AMGM (GM): in any event, now we all know where he is. He's hiding behind a blue minivan at the very end of the garage floor
April 14, 2019 3:36AMJessica: ((jump him?))
April 14, 2019 3:36AMDante: ((how far? more than 200m obviously))
April 14, 2019 3:36AMJessica: ((who's turn is it?))
April 14, 2019 3:36AMKurtis Kerner: "Gotcha!"
April 14, 2019 3:37AMGM (GM): Dante, you still have your space awareness on right?
ah its same range
April 14, 2019 3:37AMDante: ((I dont think I would, no. But it'd probably be same range))
April 14, 2019 3:37AMGM (GM): approximately 220, just on the cusp
Ok, we can drop out of initiative.
He's gonna run, we chasing?
April 14, 2019 3:37AMJessica: yes
April 14, 2019 3:38AMGM (GM): I'm fucking chasing.
April 14, 2019 3:38AMJessica: i vote yes
April 14, 2019 3:38AMJustin: Sure.
April 14, 2019 3:38AMKurtis Kerner: Kurt's gonna bolt after him, boosting his own speed rolling 9d10>8!
= 5 Successes
April 14, 2019 3:38AMJessica: ((well shit))
April 14, 2019 3:38AMGM (GM): if you got speed buffs, use em
April 14, 2019 3:39AMJustin: What sort of vehicles are around?
Anything small?
April 14, 2019 3:40AMJessica: (( are we gonna run him over?))
April 14, 2019 3:40AMGM (GM): If you can think of it, it's there. They're all bleeping with car alarms.
April 14, 2019 3:40AMEve K.: (well several are on fire...)
April 14, 2019 3:40AMGM (GM): I mean, nothing exotic
April 14, 2019 3:40AMDante: ((Before Kurt goes taking off I want to add him to the network. Should I just recast or is there a condition where I can just add him on its own roll?))
April 14, 2019 3:40AMGM (GM): Like, resources 3 cars
April 14, 2019 3:40AMEve K.: (we could hit him with a flaming jeta)
April 14, 2019 3:41AMGM (GM): you can just add him instead of dead Slabod
is anybody staying behind and not chasing?
April 14, 2019 3:41AMJustin: ((What do we think, something small and maneuverable like a motorcycle or smart car or something that we can all fit in like a van?))
April 14, 2019 3:42AMEve K.: ((So we are stealing a car? From the scene of a terrorist attack?)
April 14, 2019 3:42AMDante: 'Is there something we can do to make the clones of us not look like clones of us? I can pull myself to Kurtis to catch up if need be.'*
April 14, 2019 3:42AMJessica: ((Dante should just jump in something and run him over and then we'll catch up. we don't want him to duck into a building))
April 14, 2019 3:42AMDante: (thats over network)
April 14, 2019 3:43AMGM (GM): Oh right, sorry. When the clones die, they dont look like clones anymore, but return to their real faces.
April 14, 2019 3:43AMDante: ((Ooooh, okay. That saves some effort.))
April 14, 2019 3:43AMEve K.: (all spells drop)
April 14, 2019 3:43AMDante: ((wasnt sure if they lived out their durations or not))
April 14, 2019 3:44AMSniper: Sniper is gonna try to use his little trick to get away.
rolling 10d10>8!
= 5 Successes
April 14, 2019 3:44AMJessica: ughhhhhh
April 14, 2019 3:44AMDante: ((bye))
April 14, 2019 3:45AMGM (GM): Ok Kurt is trying to stay on top of him
April 14, 2019 3:45AMJustin: Justin's just going to run after him too then.
What's the roll?
April 14, 2019 3:45AMDante: '
We probably shouldn't split up. Follow?' Eve K. nods and begins to run along after them
April 14, 2019 3:46AMJessica: same
April 14, 2019 3:46AMGM (GM): you can try to boost your speed, other wise Dex + Athletics
could cut him off, there's only one other exit he can use at the end of the garage
April 14, 2019 3:47AMEve K.: rolling 4d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 14, 2019 3:47AMDante: Dante will try to do that then.
rolling 5d10>8!
= 2 Successes
Eve K. if Eve gets close enough she will push her shadows ahead to try and block the snipers escape route
April 14, 2019 3:48AMJustin: ((I can't use Stamina?))
April 14, 2019 3:48AMGM (GM): ((sure you can use stamina))
April 14, 2019 3:48AMJustin: rolling 7d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 14, 2019 3:48AMJessica: rolling 3d10>8!
= 1 Success
April 14, 2019 3:50AMGM (GM): Ok with Kurt in the lead we eventually corner the guy and hold him.
He looks like Kurtis and he's trying to convince us that it was nothing personal, just a job, and all that in a foreign language. Any objections to executing him?
April 14, 2019 3:52AMDante: Yes
April 14, 2019 3:52AMKurtis Kerner: Kurt rolls his eyes and puts away the gun April 14, 2019 3:53AMEve K.: "Questioning him would be good, but not here"
April 14, 2019 3:53AMDante: Dante will attempt to plumb the depths of his mind for any information about who he works for, who his associates are. ((well how long will Read the Depths take narratively?))
Eve K. will move her shadows to the exit near the elevators to try and slow the cops when they arrive
April 14, 2019 3:53AMGM (GM): So this guy, he appears to be more of a veteran sniper than he is a mage. He's awakened, but barely, he doesn't practice magic much, a reclusive type. Between our powers, we can immobilize and hold him easily.
April 14, 2019 3:54AMDante: ((Then we should just take him away from here first and do that.))
((and then kill him.))
April 14, 2019 3:54AMJessica: ((Dante take the knife out of your leg))
April 14, 2019 3:55AMDante: ((its in my arm and I think its edgy))
April 14, 2019 3:55AMGM (GM): Ok before any of this, who was the last person to leave the vicinity of Slabod's body?
April 14, 2019 3:55AMJustin: ((Yeah, definitely edgy. It is a knife.))
April 14, 2019 3:55AMDante: Dante removes the knife from his arm now that the adrenaline has settled a bit. April 14, 2019 3:55AMJessica: ((Eve I think?))
April 14, 2019 3:55AMEve K.: "We need to get out of here, but I'm concerned about taking a car from the site of a terrorist attack"
((depends on who ran away faster from the car))
April 14, 2019 3:56AMGM (GM): Ok ok ok, everyone roll perception
April 14, 2019 3:56AMJessica: ((me and justin only got 1 success so i guess us))
April 14, 2019 3:56AMGM (GM): highest roll wins
except Kurtis cause he took off like a bullet
April 14, 2019 3:56AMDante: rolling 6d10>8!
= 2 Successes
April 14, 2019 3:56AMJessica: rolling 7d10>8!
= 3 Successes
April 14, 2019 3:56AMJustin: rolling 6d10>8!
= 3 Successes
April 14, 2019 3:56AMEve K.: rolling 7d10>8!
= 3 Successes
April 14, 2019 3:56AMGM (GM): jesus
okay, appropriate
April 14, 2019 3:57AMDante: ((slabod turned back into his true form, nestor))
April 14, 2019 3:57AMGM (GM): as you're hiding behind the car and about to take off, you notice a hippie charm around dead Slabod's neck, it dimly glows
April 14, 2019 3:57AMEve K.: ((XD))
April 14, 2019 3:57AMJessica: "Slabod had a charm on him. We should grab that, right?"
April 14, 2019 3:58AMGM (GM): like one of those bead necklaces with a little stone on it, something Bella probably made him
anyone who touches it, volunteer?
April 14, 2019 3:58AMJustin: "Eve should check that with prime sight."
April 14, 2019 3:58AMJessica: ((good idea))
Eve K. looks at the charm with a frown
April 14, 2019 3:59AMGM (GM): that's why i was asking. Whoever is gonna scrutinize that, will not be chasing sniper
April 14, 2019 3:59AMEve K.: ((is this happening now or before we ran from the car?))
April 14, 2019 3:59AMGM (GM): unless you just gonna grab it or ignore it
or come back for it, but then there will be cops
this is before
April 14, 2019 3:59AMEve K.: Eve will look at it at Justin's suggestion
April 14, 2019 3:59AMGM (GM): i asked if anyone is not chasing, but my question was ignored
April 14, 2019 4:00AMJustin: Justin will hang back with Eve.
Dante should go with Kurt.
April 14, 2019 4:00AMGM (GM): Ok, so Eve: it has the magic of Life and Prime
April 14, 2019 4:00AMJustin: Jessica is floater.
She's assumed to be in both places.
ANd nowhere.
April 14, 2019 4:00AMJessica: XD
I'm with Dante
April 14, 2019 4:01AMDante: "
Where are we going from here? I can rather quickly mark you all and pull you to another location as we have done before. I have a couple of possible locations in mind should we decide to do that.' ((Schrodinger's Jessica))
April 14, 2019 4:02AMJustin: Justin's eyes narrow at the hippie charm. Using his life sight to determine the nature of the life magic on the thing. April 14, 2019 4:02AMJessica: ((meow))
April 14, 2019 4:02AMEve K.: (present time) "That's better than going through twilight, mark away"
((Charm study) *squints at the charm further trying to determine what the spell does"
April 14, 2019 4:02AMKurtis Kerner: "We need to charge you guys back up. Anywhere where we can heal and eat some sugar. Now can I kill this asshole?"
April 14, 2019 4:02AMDante: '
I do not know if I will be able to take our attaché by this method.'
April 14, 2019 4:02AMJessica: Me? Why not? April 14, 2019 4:03AMDante: '
No, the sniper. I still want to rummage through his brain.' April 14, 2019 4:03AMSniper: Dante, Sniper's memories if you wanna read em, go for it. Make a roll
April 14, 2019 4:03AMDante: (alright I'll just do it here.)
(impromptu read the depths = 8)
rolling 8d10>8!
= 0 Successes
((I guess this is a sign.))
April 14, 2019 4:04AMJessica: ((he's thinking about pizza))
April 14, 2019 4:06AMGM (GM): No access
April 14, 2019 4:06AMDante: Dante reaches out to search through the sniper's mind, furrows his brow in concentration, and then slackens as he fails to summon up the will to perform the spell. April 14, 2019 4:06AMGM (GM): Justin, what was your roll on the life sight?
April 14, 2019 4:06AMJustin: 6 I believe.
April 14, 2019 4:07AMGM (GM): Mmmm that's not gonna be enough to get everything, but you can deduce it's a benevolent charm, guarding one's well being and health.
Eve can tell there is a Prime component to it, but she can't say what
April 14, 2019 4:08AMJustin: "Thaaat... might be useful."
"Do you have any reason why I shouldn't grab it?"
April 14, 2019 4:08AMKurtis Kerner: "Would you have an easier time reading his mind if I drill a hole in his head?"
April 14, 2019 4:09AMJustin: "From my view it looks good."
April 14, 2019 4:09AMDante: '*Not my day I guess. Or maybe he has some kind of resistance. Not sure. I can't get anything from him though.'
Dante then reaches out to feel for his chalk mark in the alley in Leipzig to determine its presence. If found, he will scry the location.'*
April 14, 2019 4:10AMJessica: ((it was inside the curve of the exit ramp))
Eve K. fetches the charm off the dead body, seeming unfazed by touching the cooling corpse, likely due to her regular occupation
Eve K. hands it to Justin
April 14, 2019 4:10AMEve K.: "lets go"
April 14, 2019 4:11AMJustin: Justin nods as he pockets the charm and heads off. April 14, 2019 4:11AMEve K.: (present time) "Lets go"
April 14, 2019 4:11AMGM (GM): Eve, the charm zaps you with prime energy for...
rolling 5d10>8!
= 1 Success
1 lethal damage
when you touch it
April 14, 2019 4:12AMJessica: ((shit))
April 14, 2019 4:12AMEve K.: "Fucking Ow.."
April 14, 2019 4:12AMGM (GM): it feels like a shock, but not electric
depends on if you've ever been hit with a pure Prime missile
weaponized mana
Eve K. shakes her hand flexing and releasing it
April 14, 2019 4:13AMGM (GM): nobody wants to try taking it?
April 14, 2019 4:13AMJustin: Justin attempts to grab the charm using his jacket to cover his hand. April 14, 2019 4:14AMGM (GM): zap
rolling 4d10>8!
= 2 Successes
2 lethal. But if you keep holding it, it doesnt zap again
April 14, 2019 4:15AMJustin: Sure, I'll keep holding it.
Fortitude ++
April 14, 2019 4:15AMGM (GM): ok, you pocket it
Dante, you locate the alley in Leipzig, the one near Diana Shindiq yes?
April 14, 2019 4:16AMDante: ((tbh I dont remember. I was planning to scry it if I could feel it.))
April 14, 2019 4:17AMGM (GM): You can definitely scry your chalk mark as you find out.
the alley is clear, street sweepers somehow keep missing it, and it did not rain recently
April 14, 2019 4:17AMDante: (Oh I dont need to roll to scry chalk marks or what)
April 14, 2019 4:18AMJessica: ((not at 7 am XD))
April 14, 2019 4:18AMDante: (yea)
April 14, 2019 4:18AMGM (GM): ok ok roll it

April 14, 2019 4:18AMDante: rolling 7d10>8!
= 2 Successes
April 14, 2019 4:18AMGM (GM): yeah, and a chalk mark gets you a bonus to that
you can literally touch them
so yeah you can scry them
April 14, 2019 4:19AMDante: If nothing seems suspicious about the area from the scry Dante will mark everyone that doesn't have a mark, tell them he'll pull them across, then go across and do so.
((yeah I'm remembering that now. But calling that information in my state is impossible.))
April 14, 2019 4:20AMGM (GM): Ok, amulet guys catch up with chase guys, we're together
What are we gonna do with the Chumpy?
April 14, 2019 4:20AMDante: ((pew pew))
((Dice don't want me to know anything about him, so I don't care.))
April 14, 2019 4:20AMGM (GM): ((he shot me in the chest so i do))
April 14, 2019 4:20AMJessica: ((take him with us))
April 14, 2019 4:20AMJustin: ((New party member!))
April 14, 2019 4:21AMJessica: ((kiss him for sympathetic connection))
April 14, 2019 4:21AMDante: ((could do that. If ya'll want to I'm fine. Just can't leave him last.))
April 14, 2019 4:21AMJustin: ((With tongue(s)))
April 14, 2019 4:21AMJessica: ((BOUNDARIES))
((LOL))
April 14, 2019 4:21AMJustin: ((Try and say boundaries with 6 tongues. I dare you.))
April 14, 2019 4:21AMKurtis Kerner: Okay, Kurt is going to lead him on a telekinetic leash, behind all of yall. Anyone looking back?
April 14, 2019 4:22AMJessica: ((Kurt doens't get to go last))
April 14, 2019 4:22AMDante: ((bbbbbboooooouuuuuunnnnnnddddddaaaaaarrrrrriiiiiieeeeeessssss))
April 14, 2019 4:22AMJessica: ((we know that trick))
April 14, 2019 4:22AMKurtis Kerner: Guy is about to trip and have a fall
April 14, 2019 4:22AMDante: ((If we want to actually take him Dante will pull one of you through, then shootman, then everyone else. Put him in the middle so we have control over him.))
((If he attempts to escape in Dante's presence he will roll to dominate))
April 14, 2019 4:23AMKurtis Kerner: who do you pull first?
April 14, 2019 4:23AMEve K.: ((still would like to question))
April 14, 2019 4:23AMDante: ((Kurt first. No funny business allowed.))
April 14, 2019 4:24AMKurtis Kerner: goddamnit

April 14, 2019 4:24AMKurtis Kerner: ok
April 14, 2019 4:24AMGM (GM): we're back in an alley
April 14, 2019 4:25AMDante: ((home sweet home))
April 14, 2019 4:25AMGM (GM): to question the guy, presence+intimidation
or persuasion+investigation
depends on how you gonna play it
April 14, 2019 4:26AMEve K.: (pretty sure it can't be two skills)
April 14, 2019 4:26AMGM (GM): you could also try empathy+presence
oh sorry, it would be persuasion+manipulation
thats what i meant
April 14, 2019 4:26AMEve K.: can it be sleeping?
April 14, 2019 4:26AMGM (GM): yes it should be sleeping
April 14, 2019 4:26AMEve K.: good
April 14, 2019 4:26AMGM (GM): Justin, put the charm on your neck dont be a bitch
April 14, 2019 4:27AMJustin: ....
April 14, 2019 4:27AMGM (GM): :D
April 14, 2019 4:27AMJustin: We don't know what it does.
April 14, 2019 4:27AMDante: (that doesn't sound like a trap)
April 14, 2019 4:27AMJustin: Why would I do that without studying it?
April 14, 2019 4:27AMGM (GM): ok, defeating Slabod and gang everyone gains 5 exp
April 14, 2019 4:27AMJessica: ((because gm called you a bitch))
April 14, 2019 4:27AMGM (GM): ((i didnt CALL him it))
April 14, 2019 4:27AMJustin: 2 sessions and everyone almost dying is 5 xp!?
April 14, 2019 4:27AMGM (GM): ((i just urged not to be one))
April 14, 2019 4:28AMDante: ((yeah I'm kinda with Justin on this one))
April 14, 2019 4:28AMGM (GM): ok ok, lessons learned for another 1 xp
April 14, 2019 4:28AMDante: ((If it helps, I learned a lesson about never trusting literally anyone ever without first dousing them with a deluge of magic))
April 14, 2019 4:28AMEve K.: to be fair Kurtis took what 5? I took 1 lethal because of the charm. How much damage did Justin take?
April 14, 2019 4:28AMJustin: 2 lethal.
April 14, 2019 4:28AMEve K.: 2?
April 14, 2019 4:29AMJessica: ((learned to put up magic defenses BEFORE bed))
April 14, 2019 4:29AMJustin: Jessica almost died.
April 14, 2019 4:29AMJessica: ^
April 14, 2019 4:29AMJustin: Kurtis was a roll away from death.
April 14, 2019 4:29AMDante: ((yeah this is across two sessions that we are talking here. Not just tonight))
April 14, 2019 4:29AMJessica: we also shot our whole load
April 14, 2019 4:29AMEve K.: what is jessica at?
April 14, 2019 4:29AMJessica: Justin healed me
i was 1 turn away from bleeding out
April 14, 2019 4:29AMGM (GM): it was like 15 minute battle ingame
alright Dante learned to trust nobody without using magic detection. 6 xp
April 14, 2019 4:30AMJustin: I don't know about you, but I can go weeks without learning the same amount that I can learn in a sufficiently interesting 15 minute span.
April 14, 2019 4:30AMJessica: that's kinda bad feels
April 14, 2019 4:30AMGM (GM): ok, anything you learned that was interesting?
April 14, 2019 4:30AMEve K.: wow those cops sure took their sweet time responding to the sound of an explosion if that took 15 minutes
April 14, 2019 4:30AMDante: my gunfire hallucination was
really convincing
April 14, 2019 4:30AMGM (GM): I learned that shields that give the same effects dont stack and how explosion mechanics work, which is going to be valuable.
April 14, 2019 4:31AMJustin: I learned that Eve and Dante are an item. Learned that locking somebody in a burning car is sufficiently lethal.
Learned that people with item-based combat are less powerful when you take out their items.
April 14, 2019 4:31AMGM (GM): Eve not 15 minutes in Garage
that took like, a minute
i mean from the sniper attack to now
April 14, 2019 4:31AMEve K.: each turn is 3 seconds?
April 14, 2019 4:31AMGM (GM): total 15 minutes
April 14, 2019 4:32AMEve K.: per person or the whole thing?
April 14, 2019 4:32AMGM (GM): one turn is 3 seconds
but i mean the whole 2 sessions took 15 minutes or so
April 14, 2019 4:32AMJustin: I also learned that we always want to avoid all combat.
April 14, 2019 4:32AMGM (GM): at most 30
April 14, 2019 4:32AMJustin: Combat is not worth as much experience as wandering around.
April 14, 2019 4:32AMGM (GM): times goes normal when we not in initiative
April 14, 2019 4:32AMJustin: What matters it he number of days.
April 14, 2019 4:32AMJessica: I learned you can take control of someone else' s spell sometimes
the wasps
April 14, 2019 4:33AMJustin: More days = more experience.
April 14, 2019 4:33AMDante: Thats a good lesson. I didn't know you could wrest control of a spell
April 14, 2019 4:33AM (From Eve K.): I learned not to trust Justin because he thinks collateral damage is okay XD
April 14, 2019 4:33AMDante: I'm guessing its a thyrsus animal thing
April 14, 2019 4:33AMEve K.: I learned that a lot can be accomplished without mana
April 14, 2019 4:33AMJessica: yeah a lot
April 14, 2019 4:34AM (To Eve K.): whispers display in logs
April 14, 2019 4:34AMDante: as long as you also have WP
April 14, 2019 4:34AMJessica: i also learned dropping to 0 wp doens't fuck you up like i assumed
April 14, 2019 4:34AMDante: ye
April 14, 2019 4:34AMJessica: but that was last game
April 14, 2019 4:34AMGM (GM): Oh Eve, you knew that, give me a good lesson learned!
Surely you learned something truly new!
April 14, 2019 4:35AMEve K.: I learned babies cry a lot when you have to keep typing??
April 14, 2019 4:35AMGM (GM): lmao
we'll talk later
6 exp everyone
April 14, 2019 4:36AMJessica: =/
