GM: Caine Players: Bigman, Nolan Synopsis: Team is hired to kill a priest. Date: Feb 22, 2074 SR - Saturday, February 22, 2014, 6:40 PM «Plot» Caine says, "Ok, here is how I work. This will be a relatively simple plot, but your actions can make it dangerous and complicated. If you decide to attack a swat team, then your likely going to die. That said, if you do start taking actions I think are risky and dangerous, I will ask for your consent before we go any further. That will be your warning your getting into dangerous ground." Calls go out to fixers and such, that a job needs done, a man needs killed, and there is no reason given beyond nuyen. Should you be interested the meeting will happen in a private room at Chrome. The jay will be there in a special chair, and he has a cat. Biggie gets a call from one of his contacts, and money is money…so he puts on some simple clothing, his electronic sunglasses, and heads to CHROME. Once passing the security checkpoint Biggie heads to the backroom. He knows the description of the J, so he isn't too paranoid. Nolan Void makes his way to where he has been told to go. Turns out it's Chrome, a place he's been before. So checking his rig at the door he enters the place looking for a man with a cat. Nolan seems a bit self-conscious walking around with his hands in the pockets of his coat and his shoulders hiked up just a bit too much for someone in a club where being seen is part of the thing. A man is seated in a hoverchair in the private room, a white persian cat sitting on his lap, its head turning to watch you all as you enter. The man is human, with a scar across a milky white left eye. He does not smile or make any real facial expression, waiting for you both to sit down, then he begins to speak. "An associate of mine needs someone delt with, the reason is of no concern, merly the money. The offer is fifteen thousand to kill this man, his security is rather minimal, and he is not aware he has done anything to warrent this action. If you are interested in the offer, please say so." «Game» Backup to offline storage commencing. Game may freeze for a bit… Bigman says "Straight to the point…" he hmms to himself "But I think 15K is low for work like this…"" Nolan Void nods and shrugs a bit, "I get pinged I show up. I assume it is because I'm needed, but I'm not really a wet work kinda guy, right I get folks into places… I get things out of things." he looks to the well put together man and nods, "No bullshit first job in this town, so I'll defer to your judgment." Caine focuses on Nolan, "Locked doors are always an issue, the true question is do you care if your actions assist in the death of someone. If you do, then you should leave, if you do not care, then stay." he turns to look at Bigman, smiling faintly, "It seems fair to me to kill someone who is not significatly guarded. Ohh…..there is one more question. Do any of you have issue with killing a priest?" Bigman shakes his head "This type of job always gives more problems…a priest is definitely higher in the public eye….complicates things any more," he glares a Caine, they've known each other for a bit so it's more of mocking glare. "We leave the body, there will be more curiosity in the crime. We dispose of the body we risk getting caught." Nolan Void shakes his head, "I do care, it is a factor. I'm just not concerned with his plight or his profession. Though he…" Nolan nods sideways to Bigman, "…makes a good point. Much higher profile than some wage slave." Caine smiles faintly, "I'll have a third person helping you, a friend of yours." This said to Bigman. "He will provide some extra magical support." Then he focuses on Nolan. "So the simple question is, would you help kill someone for money. I will have no issues if you say no and wish to leave." Bigman raises a brow at the remark of a friend helping, running throw his Mnemonic Enhanced brain to think of who Caine knows that would be willing to help. "I'll trust you….I'm in" Nolan Void shakes his head, "I'm in, no issues on my part." Caine nods "Very well then, here are the details." He turns the screen around so you can see it, its a flip up on his hoverchair. There is a picture of a priest, a young man actually, in his mid twenties perhaps. "Edgar Grell, out of seminary only a year now. He actually took his schooling in Italy near the Vatican." The image shifts to the warrens, Laymen turf, and thier chapel. "He is now staying with the Laymen, helping out the downtrodden and all that. I am not positive where he rests his head, but every day he is either in the chapel or out helping with the defense of their turf." Bigman ear's perk as he hears the schooling in Italy "This isn't going to effect mutual associatations is it?" Caine shakes his head. "The Jesuits are no ones friends. Especially those in the Vatican that have thier own confessions to give." Nolan Void listens to the details and the concerns which are none of his. Bigman nods "Alright…we've got a place to start at least." Caine nods "See, this is why its worth fifteen." He smirks, "A target in the warrens, they die all the time there. I suggest you get going now. The final member of your group will be calling you sir." He looks to Bigman, "He will have the details on when you receive payment." Nolan Void nods and stands tucking his hands into his pockets he really is a mess. Bigman nods "Even attention of a gang be less the pleasant…" he shrugs and stands up "Who's number should I be expecting anyways?" A phone beeps, its Bigmans, he has a text. Caine nods "I assume that will be him. You should discuss things then, I'll be leaving." The chair lifts up, and heads to the exit, the man heading out. Biggie slips out his pocsec and looks it over, he nods "Alright…" he looks to Nolan Void "Call me Charlie…" he looks over the human "You got a comm?" Nolan Void nods and gives out the number, "I'm Nolan, Charlie nice to meet you." A few minutes after the man in the chair leaves, an elf enters. He moves with the aid of a cane, but he is not old, just looks a little frail. He frowns as he looks around, "Jay already left? Ehh, whatever." He moves over to a chair to sit. Bigman nods and reaches into his jacket pocket pulling out a CommLink, and slips it over his ear, "Alright…" he turns to the elf as he joins the group "Welcome…" Nolan Void looks to the newly arrived frail looking elf and nods, "Oh, ok… well yes welcome." he pushes the hair back on his head and tightens the muscles up in his face, kinda scrunching up his look then relaxing he starts, "I am new to the town, but I'm not totally green, just I don't know if I'll be of much use in planning this thing. I barely know my way around the streets even though I'm living out in the Warrens I've not even heard of these Laymen." Caine frowns "Laymen? So whats going on." He looks to Bigman, "Care to fill me in? I got just some minor contact data sent to me." Bigman thinks to himself and looks to Nolan "No worries, we'll get it sorted I'll make a call to a contact I got in the Warrens, maybe he'll know what they are about" he turns to Caine "Hired for some wet work on a priest…works with a gang on their turf on helping out the needy and all that. Name is Edgar Grell." Sliding his pocsec again to his ear Biggie makes a call, reaching out to Mic, one of his contacts in the Warrens. He's reaching out Mic for more information on the Layman. Caine nods "If your friend doesnt have much data, we can grab a layman and I can dip my fingers into his head." «Plot» Caine says, "Roll etiq Bigman, tn 4" «Auto-Judge[]» Bigman (#9958) rolls Etiquette vs TN 4 for "Working with Mic": 2 3 5 9 = 2 Successes Mic answers the call, "Yo, whats up?" Bigman speaks with mic "Looking for some information chummer….what do you know about the Laymen, and an Edgar Grell, a priest that works with them." «Game» Backup to offline storage commencing. Game may freeze for a bit… Nolan Void pulls his hands out of his pockets and works his fingers in the air a bit before looking at his fingernails and making a look not unlike one makes when they have smelt someone's fart. He mentioned living in the Warrens and he looks it, though he doesn't smell of the gutter he smells of oil and CHOO. There is a short pause, then Mic speaks, "Don't know any specifcly by name, but the Laymen are holier than thou assholes. They got thier little corner of the warrens, south of Shenendoa. Even got a church there sponsored by the Vatican, outreach program. This don't mean they are pussies, they defend thier turf pretty damn hard if anyone bothers them. Thats really all I know, they are armed and dangerous and think they have god on thier side. Dangerous combination if you do go knocking on thier door." Biggie hmms to himself "Send me their turf boundary would ya?" Mic grunts "South of Shenendoa, they border the Saints on the north. You can't miss it, they got the streets walled off. Its like a fort in there, they take thier defense seriously." Bigman nods "Alright thanks Chummer, I'll bring ya a nice bottle next time I'm in your neck of the woods." Mic responds "I'll hold you to that." *click* «Plot» Caine says, "Nolan, roll etiquette tn 4" «Auto-Judge[]» Nolan Void (#8570) rolls Etiquette (Street) vs TN 4 for "Etiquette roll for my contact Carlos": 2 2 2 3 4 = 1 Success Nolan takes the opportunity to give a 'co-worker' a call while Charlie is on the phone, "Carlos, nolan… yeah quick question. You ever work anything out in the Warrens? Familiar with the Laymens' turf?" There is a soft laugh in response to that. "What is worth taking in that cesspool senor? No, I stay clear of the warrens my friend. If something of value is there, the men who hold it are the same kind to take extra efforts for revenge. Stay out of there, stick to stealing from people who are insured and just as happy to have the cred instead of what you took." Chuckling a bit Nolan agrees, "Sure thing, just curious you know it's been awhile since the last bit of work so… well if something does come up you give me a call. Later mang." he then hangs up and shrugs to Charlie. Caine grunts "Well, if you two don't have anything, I suggest we grab a laymen and I read his mind for our target. Hell, I could even disguise one of you as one of them, and you kill him in a confessional…." he grins "Thats definatly like a trid flick, I like it." Oz has arrived. Bigman is already done with his phone call…"So Mic gave me some basic information, and a little bit more…Seems the J had a sort of stretch of the truth. The guy himself may not be armed, but I don't see getting onto the Laymans turf exactly easy or getting out easier. They've "walled" up their turf." Bigman says "Guess we may have to go in a refugees seeking shelter?" Nolan Void chuckles a bit which causes his chest to heave just a bit, "Most trids end poorly for the "bad-guys" I think killing a priest would put us in the bad-guy column." with the addition of the information from Charlie Nolan thinks aloud, "…better to find a reason for him to come out and play?" Caine shrugs "Look, a wall in the warrens isn't an issue, I can float you invisible across it fairly easily. Its the warrens, they wont have high tech ultrasound or anything like that." Nolan Void looking to Charlie he says, "Anything with a dail, pin and tumbler, even fairly mundane electronics I can get us past. Get too high tech though I just don't have the cred to buy the gear. Wish we knew more about the inside of the place." Bigman says "If they've got an sort of mojo working they'll spot us on the astral plane, but I think it's the best option we've got. Of course, my guy said that the Layman are men of god…maybe be something to use later on." Caine shrugs "For fifteen I suggest we try the quick and fast approach. I spent a ton of effort and money on a job before and barely broke even afterwards, so I'm not really doing that whole dance again. Up to you all though. I'm actually looking at the area now, run down houses, small farms on empty plots, water collection areas. You know those zombie flicks where they fix up areas of a town and fortify it? Its like that honestly, like they are trying to make a village out in the warrens that runs without electrcity or running water." He pauses "There is some solar panels here and there, mostly on the church, so its got some power." Nolan Void wonders, "Can you get a look at the locks? If they are mechanical or not? Caine shakes his head "I'm not going to send my spirit in that close, but it stands to reason that without power…." He leaves the last bit.. Bigman nods "Alright, lets get what we need an rendezvous a three blocks north of the turf…pick a street" he turns to Caine, "We get in quickly to the turf, do the job, and get out of turf, split up and everyone finds their way out of the warrens. Do what recon we can outside their wall" Nolan Void agrees with a nod and a< "Sure. Sounds fine." Caine nods "Alright, I'll meet you both at the Angels Delight, its just a little north of the Laymens turf." Biggie makes a quick stop to grab a backpack of gear, and a quick set of second clothes, ones that a bit more ratty and will fit in with the Warrens. He makes his way to the Angels Delight to meet up with his team. The warrens is a dump, even in the better areas. Shenedoa is the Saints turf, and they are a gang, but more docile than some of the others. They will watch you, but they aren't likely to attack unless you do something stupid. Caine is invisible, hanging out on the street and waiting for the rest of the group to arrive. Nolan Void drops some stuff off at his pad and then walks to the meet, it's only a couple of blocks, uncomfortably close actually. Not unfamiliar to the Warrens, Biggie makes sure his bike is paid for protection and makes his way to the bar, waiting for any of his team. Watching the astral plane as well, he probably will spot Caine's aura, and be familiar with it. Caine meets up with the two others, himself invisible. He speaks into his comm. «Alright, so yea, its a wall of cars and junk further south, at night they close up the access points, but during the day they are open. Shall we go see if we can find our guy, you all got any ideas?" Nolan Void shrugs, "I might be able to climb up the walls and such, but once inside… never really was a church go'er. Can't tell you the difference between an alter and a…"he pauses a second and thinks, "Actually I don't think I know the name of any other part of a church? Vestibule? Narthax? They sound familiar." Commlink-Biggie> Bigman says, "Stay in your spell for now, Nolan you fit in a bit better here…I'm going to go change my clothing, still then it'll be best to go in as refugees and playing the part of seeking god…" Commlink-Geppetto> Caine says, "So, I gotta ask, how much do you know about being Catholic? Can you recite thier special prayers in latin?" Commlink-Biggie> Bigman says, "Not at all, but you think a god fearing people wouldn't want to convert a sinner?" Commlink-Geppetto> Caine says, "Maybe, but you think half the warrens wouldn't want to live in thier section where its well guarded and everyone has food?" Commlink-Biggie> Bigman says, "Then get us all invisible and walk in hoping they don't have any spirits guarding the place?" Nolan Void does a pretty good job at remaining quiet. Squinting he looks the place up and down and does his best to be one with the shadows, as it were. Commlink-Geppetto> Caine says, "Thats why I'm here isn't it. Give me a few moments to have my spirit scan for anything awakened." «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Intelligence for "Sweeping the wall for spirits/magic/awakened": 1 4 5 5 7 11 Commlink-Geppetto> Caine says, "I don't see anything, so lets walk a little closer first."

He goes and throws some dirt and sludge over his clothing, messes up his hair, and throws some dirt on his face. He returns back to the main street and slowly picks his way down the street, finding trash can to dig through. «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls 3 for "Does anyone think these guys are suspicious or not?": 2 2 7 «Plot» Caine says, "Nothing obvious happens." Commlink-Geppetto> Caine says, "Ok, so I can invis you both fairly reliably, but if you want to fly, it will have to be one at a time." «Auto-Judge[]» Nolan Void (#8570) has the Active Skill Specialization Athletics (Parkour) with the value '5'. You find a spot along the walls where it looks like its not a difficult…or noisy climb. There is no security close by, a house further down has a man with a rifle watching, though he likely can't see well in the dark. «Auto-Judge[]» Nolan Void (#8570) rolls Athletics (Parkour) vs TN 4 for "Found a fairly good route up, hopefully.": 1 3 4 5 10 = 3 Successes Commlink-Biggie> Bigman says, "I'll probably need a lift and a cover…" «Auto-Judge[]» Bigman (#9958) rolls Intelligence for "Keeping an eye out, flipping through Thermo on glasses and Astral.

Nolan Void nods to Charlie and Caine and points to a jug that is pretty damned obvious about 7 feet up on the wall in this crack, then fades away. He makes a pinball like action with his hand and then gets a bit of a jogging start. He jumps, smears his toes against teh surface and springs up, catches the jug and then quickly does an explosive pull-up launching himself up and catching the jug with his right foot. A vault from there and he has the lip of the wall and pulls himself up. Which would have all been very impressive if anyone could've seen him do it. «Auto-Judge[]» Nolan Void (#8570) rolls Stealth: 2 2 4 «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls 3 vs TN 8 for "Does anyone hear? +4 for distant sound": 1 2 4 = 0 Successes Commlink-Geppetto> Caine says, "Find a hiding spot now, I need to drop the spell to take care of the rest of this." «Auto-Judge[]» Nolan Void (#8570) rolls Stealth: 1 1 4 Nolan Void looking down on the work smiles to himself before laying flat on the top of the wall. He finds a little chunk of ferrocrete up there and tosses if down holding his hand over the wall giving an invisible thumbs up. «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls 3 vs TN 6 for "Does anyone see nolan?": 1 1 3 = 0 Successes «Plot» Caine says, "Casting F5 Imp Invis on Bigman, then F3 Levitate." «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Centering vs TN 2 for "Vs bgcount": 2 3 3 4 = 4 Successes «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Sorcery + Sorcery Pool: 6 vs TN 4 for "F5 imp invis on bigman": 1 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 4 5 5 5 = 6 Successes Oz has disconnected. «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Willpower vs TN 3 for "Drain, need 2": 2 2 2 3 9 15 = 3 Successes «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Centering vs TN 2 for "Bgcount?": 2 5 5 9 = 4 Successes «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Sorcery + Sorcery Pool: 2 vs TN 4 for "Levitate on Bigman, F3": 1 1 2 3 3 4 4 7 = 3 Successes «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Willpower vs TN 3 for "Drain, need 2": 1 2 2 2 2 3 = 1 Success «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Sorcery Pool: 4 vs TN 3 for "The rest of my SP I didnt use on the casting, forgot to add it": 2 3 11 15 = 3 Successes «Plot» Caine says, "No drain.

He channels his mana into a stunbolt and throws the mana into the guard, dropping him to his knees instantly. "Drek…hopefully he didn't get out a call…" Well, he thought he had a shot, and then his vision got blurry and everything went dark, the man falls backwards, his weapon falling against the edge of the roof. It teeters for a bit, then falls over, plummeting towards the ground…… «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls 1 for "If this is over 9, the gun goes off when it hits the ground.": 5 The gun hits the ground….and nothing happens. «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Centering vs TN 2 for "Centering bgcount": 1 1 5 5 = 2 Successes «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Sorcery + Sorcery Pool: 3 vs TN 5 for "Levitate F3 on Caine.": 1 1 1 2 3 3 5 5 16 = 3 Successes «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Willpower + Sorcery Pool: 3 vs TN 3 for "Vs drain, need 2": 2 3 3 4 4 5 7 10 17 = 8 Successes Nolan Void watches this all unfurl happening too quickly for him to react, but then it's over guard is down so is a rifle.

Commlink-Biggie> Bigman says, "Just knocked out a guard…you always say its easier when they aren't resisting…" Commlink-Geppetto> Caine says, "What, already? Where?" Commlink-Biggie> Bigman says, "I couldn't take a chance, looked like spotted me when I landed…hopefully they don't have a check in process." Biggie points to where the guard collapsed. Commlink-Geppetto> Caine says, "Ok, I'm doing that tattoo on you first chance I get. Your too big to hide in corners."

From his memory of the church we can likely get in a second floor window and down the hall, but I'll have to invis you both to pull it off and I'll stay outside just in case. Sound good?" Nolan Void smiles, "Works good for me, but no more heart attacks, cause that last little bit gave me a start." he is obviously saying this with a smirk on his face being a smart ass. "…what I mean is, nice save there." «Game» Backup to offline storage commencing. Game may freeze for a bit… Bigman chuckles "Please…that was nothing…I should release Burst In and To Flames…" he begins to make his way to the church, trying to stay as stealthy as possible. Caine floats off the roof, then follows you both, floating cause well, he is kinda slow without it. Nolan Void remains quiet and moves with Charlie so far so good from the look on his face. The night has plenty of activity, guards mostly, people watching each other. This is a community, people banding together to survive and actually live a life. Its fairly impressive when you think about it, of course, if they actually had SINs this would likely not be necessary. The church is lit, fairly well actually, from some electric lighting, to actual oil lamps outside. The church is three stories total, the bottom level obviously the main rectory, the upper levels offices and quarters. Biggie looks over the church, looking for a dark corner or weak spot in the security to get into the building. Commlink-Geppetto> Caine says, "I'll make you two invis, then you can get into the building. I'll have to stay hidden to deal with the number of spells."

Nolan Void sees where the route should take them to the second story window and takes a short jog towards the wall pushing off and springing up to catch the overhang then pull himself up to mantle the ledge. Slips onto the ledge and peeks into any window or door he can find. Biggie slips onto the ledge and peeks into any window or door he can find. Caine remains on the ground, hiding in a corner invisible, cause this way the building hides him from magical site as well. The second story has a small ledge by the window, but the window has a simple latch lock. Someoen with the right tools can open it, or you could break it. «Auto-Judge[]» Nolan Void (#8570)'s LCE and Saddle Bags (#10695) has the Voucher Item 2 Mechanical Lock Kit with the following information: ----------—[ Shadowrun Denver ]- =======================> Item 2 on LCE and Saddle Bags <======================= Item Name: Mechanical Lock Kit Item Type: ITEM Quantity: 1 Fractional OK: No Clonable: No Players Can Link: No Created For: Nolan Void (#8570) Created By: Mojo (#11250) IC Location: Carried -----> Description for Item <------ A deceptively small lock picking, drilling, and servicing kit.

Approved by Mojo (#11250). «Auto-Judge[]» Nolan Void (#8570) rolls Lockpicking vs TN 4 for "Latch lock second story window": 1 3 3 4 8 = 2 Successes Nolan Void picks a simple flat piece of steel out of a pocket zip up kit and slides it in in front of the latch catch. It requires him to shimmy the shim just a bit to wiggle the latch up until it finally clears the catch. He then pulls the tool out and puts it away opening the window just a crack to look around the edges of it for anything that might fall or that may be connected. The window comes open, it creaks just a bit, but thats all. The hallways are quiet, perhaps they put thier faith in god….or the security in the neighborhood. Bigman grins, almost ear to ear if he wasn't invisible…he flips his vision to the astral plane, and looks around the church. Not wanting to set off an wards, Biggie is careful. He watches the astral plane before making any move, but after not spotting anything…?… he steps into the building and into the light. Nolan Void opens the window fully then carefully slips in to the hallway beyond. This is where it becomes interesting, the fix, the hit of excitement when you are where you are not supposed to be. Nolans' breathing slows and he just soaks up the feeling. Commlink-Geppetto> Caine says, "I'm not sure which room it is, but it should be on the back hallway." You are both invisible, and that helps a lot. The back hallway is found easily, and there are three doors, each equal distance apart. Bigman pulls out a book from his jacket "Da Vinci…go take a look behind the doors…let me know what you find" he whispers, he drops his hand and the book stays floating. Then it disappears onto the astral plane. «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls 1 for "Whos home?": 2 The spirit returns quickly, only one room is occupied, man asleep in bed. Nolan Void follows along quietly, not really crouched or skulking though, very relaxed at home when in someone elses. Bigman says "It's a start Da Vinci, thank you my friend" he whispers and keeps the book on the astral plane. "Lets move in…." he points to the door where Da Vinci indicated there was one person behind." The door is locked, old style key and tumbler. Bigman looks to Nolan "Do that thing you do…" Nolan Void moves up quietly to the door with the sleeping soul behind it. He then peers down at the lock not touching it yet, just looking at it, seeing if it's an old friend, maybe a Schlag, a Titan, an ASSA. He whispers quietly open'er up like a prom date." «Auto-Judge[]» Nolan Void (#8570) rolls Lockpicking vs TN 4 for "oh please ph please oh please… let me get to home plate tonight.": 1 2 4 7 9 = 3 Successes The door clicks unlocked The tension wrench slips into the bottom of the key way slowly, teasing the cylinder to wiggle just a little. Nolan lifts the pins each in turn lifting till they stick, then with a little sigh she gives up and lets him open'er all the way up." «Auto-Judge[]» Nolan Void (#8570) has the Active Skill Stealth with the value '3'. «Auto-Judge[]» Bigman (#9958) rolls Stealth: 1 2 3 «Auto-Judge[]» Bigman (#9958) rolls Stealth for "13KP": 2 5 10 «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls 5 vs TN 10 for "Does he hear anything?": 1 2 2 2 4 = 0 Successes The man sure seems asleep when the door opens. You might need some light to see if its the right target though. Bigman shakes his head "Drek…I can't make this guys face out from here…" Nolan Void shrugs, "If we can do it with no marks I can lock it back up, look all natural like." Caine remains outside, just waiting and holding spells. The room is dark, the man asleep on the bed…. Bigman looks over to Nolan "Cover the hallway…I've got to get closer…" he slips into the room, as quietly as possible. «Game» Backup to offline storage commencing. Game may freeze for a bit… Nolan Void slips aside and then fills in the doorway after Charlie so he can watch the hallway without actually being all the way out in it. Biggie tries to move around the room enough to get a look at the mans face. «Auto-Judge[]» Bigman (#9958) rolls Stealth for "Crap…": 4 5 5 «Auto-Judge[]» Bigman (#9958) rolls Stealth for "Crap…14Kp": 3 5 7 «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls 5 for "Does he wake up?": 1 2 2 7 11 «Auto-Judge[]» Bigman (#9958) rolls Initiative with a result of 17. «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls 1 for "+4 Init from Priest": 5 «Auto-Judge[]» Nolan Void (#8570) rolls Initiative with a result of 11.

Nolan Void turns around quickly at the action, but it's over just as soon as it begun, "Is it him?" he whispers in a whisper so faint it's like a breath. Bigman walks over to the man and rolls him face up to check his identity. "I've got him…as best as confirmed, unless he's got decoys…?" he shrugs "Lets kill the drekhead and get out…" Nolan Void nods, "Wrap his sash around his throat hang him from the door knob, pull his pants down and put his cock in his hand. We kill him with strangulation and I bet we never hear about it." Bigman chuckles to himself "Get in here…I'll need help to get him over to the door…" Biggie cleans up his aura from the spell that was left in the room. Nolan Void nods and slowly closes the door. He helps Charlie with the priest and ties the sash around the door knob. "When I lock it from the outside, well it looks totally accidental. Biggie helps Nolan move the priest over to the door, wraps his sash around his neck and gives it a good tug, making sure to leave burn marks and evidence of the sash killing him. He ties the other side around door knob. "Drek…" Nolan Void is patient as it takes longer for someone to expire this way then they show in the movies. Wait for the heart to stop, no pulse, stage the scene a bit. "Won't be a mess for them to clean, but I guess he didn't get there before, you know…" with that he nods to the doorway. "I guess it's time. I think the priest is an ex-priest." Biggie checks the priest aura, just to make sure that its fading. The man is indeed dying, and his aura is faded and gone. "Alright, lets get the drek out of here before we're seen. Lock the door on the way out, and lock the window on the way out." Making sure things, are more or less perfect, he moves back out the hallway to the window they came in on. Nolan Void opens the door as little as possible to get out into the hallway and then pulls the door shut releasing the handle slowly till the catch is in place. He pushes slightly on the door to ensure it's closed and then picks turns the cylinder back into having not 'fully' rotated it open in the first place. "Locked" he whispers as he starts moving towards the window they entered through and then he waits for Charlie to go first as he'll need to push the latch into place after they exit. Oz has connected. Commlink-Biggie> Bigman says, "Need a lift down…" Biggie waits at the Window looking to get down Commlink-Geppetto> Caine says, "Alright." «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Centering vs TN 5 for "Eeek It hurts!": 1 1 4 4 = 0 Successes «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Sorcery + Sorcery Pool: 6 vs TN 9 for "Base tn 4, +1 bg, +4 sustaining 2 spells": 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 4 4 5 5 = 0 Successes «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Sorcery + Sorcery Pool: 6 vs TN 9 for "Base tn 4, +1 bg, +4 sustaining 2 spells KP:9?": 1 2 2 2 3 4 4 4 4 5 10 11 = 2 Successes «Auto-Judge[]» Caine (#7926) rolls Willpower vs TN 5 for "Was F2 Levitate, need 2": 2 3 3 4 5 5 = 2 Successes Caine works his magic, lowering Bigman to the ground. Its slow going, since Caine can barely focus on one foot in front of another, at one point you almost have to carry him. Eventually you reach the wall, and Bigman goes first, once over the levitate and invis are dropped. Then Nolan goes over on his own, and Caine floats on his own now, sustaining no spells. The group makes thier way back to thier vehicles, and Caine makes a call, and gets the location of the payment, a coffin motel and a code to a coffin, where you all find three credsticks. Nolan Void wiggles the shim back into the catch and slides the latch back into place. It's not perfect, hard to get the same amount of pressure on the latch from this side as when actually pushing on the lever, but it is in place. From there he drops to the ground rolling to a shoulder and then popping back up redirecting the energy of the fall as he moves into a shadow and then back to the outer wall. Parkour needs some speed so he doesn't stop at this point, keeping the momentum into the spring to the outer wall then a vault up and a mantle to press his body up and then back over to fall, roll, and walk into the shadows and away.
