The armour system is as follows:

Armour can be purchased in pieces. One piece of armour may be equipped at each location. They are:

- Head
- Chest
- Arms
- Legs
- Feet
- Inner
- Outer

The Inner layer is a thin base layer worn underneath other equipment. The Outer layer is worn over all other equipment, such as a coat or cloak.

Full Suit armour is an all-in one piece. It can be worn with the Inner and Outer layers, but not any of the other armour pieces.

Some spells will have 3 levels. These are noted by (I), (II), or (III) next to each item in the spell description. When you meet the stat requirement for the next spell level, it is automatically unlocked. If you meet the stat requirement for level II or III spells and have not already purchased the spell at level I, you must purchase it at the level II or III price.

All spell damage or healing values are added to your WIL DMG.

Healing and buff spells are cast against the spell's own difficulty (DC). Attack spells are cast against the enemy's EVA.

GM Boone: Word gets around fast in the RPZ, and the current word is that Spider Sullivan is looking for talent. Spider is a broker, a former merc, and depending on who you ask he's either a legend of the game or a washed-up has-been. He's been out of the broker biz for the past six months or so, radio silent, so his talent search is something of a surprise. Interested parties looking to take him up on a paying tryout gig are invited to meet him at his office - which is just his booth at the Lucky Sevens.
[8:21 PM] GM Boone: Spider isn't hard to find. He sits in a booth with three decks set up in front of him, the blue light of their screens giving his pale and sleepless face an even more sunken-eyed look. He's a man in his fifties with short silver hair, a square jaw, a strong build, tattoos from his wrists to his neck and hard dark eyes. He has the look of an aged punk who never quite grew out of the attitude.
[8:22 PM] GM Boone: RP when ready.
[8:24 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace is basically right on time and opens the door for Kali because he's sometimes a gentleman. "After you."
[8:26 PM] Kali Alvarez: With hands tucked into a hoodie, Kali takes a step around Jace's much taller frame, shoving past him. "Guess chivalry isn't dead." She mused, stepping inside. "Why did you drag me here....again?"
[8:28 PM] Sage: Sage stumbles toward the bar, the hood of his sweatshirt pulled over his head. He speeds up as he recognizes the man holding the door and nods as he too slips inside. "Morning."
[8:30 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace is only marginally surprised to see the vampire again and nods with a slight smile. "Just woke up, huh?" He holds the door open for Sage, too, and then enters behind him. "And that's why I dragged you here." He turns Kali by the shoulder, pointing her towards Spider. He looks to Sage curiously, wondering if they're going to partner up again. "Round two?"
[8:33 PM] Kali Alvarez: She shifts around, setting eyes the broker. Curiosity sets into her gaze, "Count me in." Her attention then turns over towards Sage, "Nightowl." She only jokes, flashing a light grin. "Well, go on, move. Use your long legs, you're first." Kali extends a hand forward, motioning a little for Jace to walk.
[8:35 PM] Sage: Sage shrugs. "You got a problem with my sleep schedule you can bite me. Besides. All the best deals happen at night." He grins and leads the way to Spider's booth, sliding in
[8:37 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace raises an eyebrow, wondering how literally he's supposed to take that offer and then smirks. He shakes his head, deciding not to comment, and follows Sage. He motions Kali in first, preferring to be able to spring out of the booth and deal with trouble quickly if need be.
[8:38 PM] GM Boone: Spider snorts back a stimulant drip and looks the lot of you over as you approach, sizing you up. "Fresh meat, huh?" he asks casually, tapping at the keyboard on one of his decks without looking. Several empty glasses clutter the table. "You all here for the milk run, yeah?"
[8:40 PM] Kali Alvarez: Close behind, Kali follows on towards the booth before sliding in as well and bringing in her legs to cross beneath her. Hazel eyes lock on Spider, raising an eyebrow at the man. "You've got my attention. Why not." her shoulders roll in a slight shrug.
[8:41 PM] Jace Deckard: "Yep. Details?" Jace adds, turning his gaze to Spider.
[8:42 PM] Sage: "Suppose so. I've got nothing else going on tonight."
[8:46 PM] GM Boone: "Jeez, I love the fuckin' enthusiasm. All right." Spider looks over towards the bar, raises his hand, snaps his fingers and yells "Ey, Sev, doll, how about a round for biz?" Seven spares Spider a withering look and says "Only if you shut up." Spider waves the comment off and turns back to you. "So I'm looking for some new talent, and I got a little tryout job. Nothin' too hairy but it'll let me see how you work. And it pays. You do good, you get more work from me. You fuck it up, you don't. Simple, right?"
[8:48 PM] Kali Alvarez: Kali slouches, amused. "Get me a drink, and I'll show ya some enthusiasm." She piped in, waving her hand a little almost like she was pretending to hold a drink.
[8:49 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace nods but maintains both his silence and his observant vigil.
[8:51 PM] Sage: Sage tucks one gangly leg up onto the bench and tries not to look too interested, despite the fact he clearly is
[8:54 PM] GM Boone: "So the client had a boy quit his company and take off with some data, cleared the backups and everything. Boy ended up at a new firm and now they're using that data to compete. We ain't talking G-A, these are small fries, but they still got some money to play with. Client wants you to go in to the company HQ, recover the data, and trash their backups -- however you see fit. Get in, get out, and don't get caught."
[8:56 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace mouth shrugs then nods once. "Got it. Anything else?"
[8:59 PM] Sage: Sage frowns and glances at his two new 'allies' "Uhhh I don't know I'm cut out for this sort of work, I mean computers are fine and all but... not exactly my forte"
[9:00 PM] Kali Alvarez: Kali leans up slightly, hands on table. "No manches, simple enough. Just my area." A wider grin crosses her lips, a bit of excitement in her eyes. "Im sure I can work my fingers around a few things" She raises a hand, almost like tapping in the air with each finger.
[9:00 PM] Jace Deckard: "Good thing our only job, then, is to keep pint-size here in one piece." He smirks at Sage and raises a brow. "How about it? Partners again?"
[9:01 PM] Sage: He nods. "I could get behind that I guess."
[9:02 PM] Kali Alvarez: Kali sets a hand on Sage's and Jace's shoulder, "Hey, just piggy back me through this. I'll take care of the tech-y bits."
[9:02 PM] Sage: "I can't tell if you're serious, pipsqueak."
[9:03 PM] Jace Deckard: "She's being about 78% literal. Give or take."
[9:04 PM] Kali Alvarez: "So is that a no?..." She humors them.
[9:04 PM] GM Boone: "There's some on site security you're gonna have to deal with. So it ain't as simple as hitting a few keys. I pulled a datasheet on the corp and their building. They hire out some el cheapo gunhands." He sniffs back another drip, then reaches into an open backpack on the seat beside him. "Also, I'm running ops on this. Eyes and ears on all of you, direct comm and video links." He pulls out a tangle of hair thin wires and small plastic nodes. "So I can watch how you work, yeah?"
[9:05 PM] Jace Deckard: All business again once Spider speaks, Jace listens intently. He nods again, once, and holds out his hand for the wires. He'll take the opportunity to "suit up" and help Kali if need be.
[9:07 PM] Sage: Sage plucks a set for himself and threads one into his ear. "Just hoping this job doesn't suck as much as work." He eyes his partners. "You two know each other then?"
[9:09 PM] Kali Alvarez: Setting in the ear piece, Kali perks up at the question and gives a scoff, "Sureee." She throws a quick jab at Jace off to the side," He punched me by accident in a bar once. Been best friends forever since..." She sounded slightly sarcastic, but nonetheless flashed a smirk.
[9:11 PM] GM Boone: Spider tap tap taps on one of his decks, setting up the links. He does a quick comms test, then provides you with the address of the building. It's a ride on the SkyTrain away, and then a very short walk from the stop. Once you are ready to head out, you may hop the train to your objective.
[9:12 PM] Jace Deckard: "In my defense, I couldn't see you, pint-size." He says as he stands up to his full height and smirks at her. He'll wait for his companions and then heads for the train.
[9:14 PM] Sage: Sage gently pushes Kali forward on the bench, giving himself room to stand and step out. "You hitching a ride pipsqueak or can you manage?" with a sigh he glances toward the lot where he's stashed his car. "one of these days I'm just going to drive places. Get the batmobile some exercise"
[9:17 PM] Kali Alvarez: Kali stretches a little, moving then to follow the other two out of the bar and towards the train. "Hey, hey. I've got legs, I can keep up. Try not to hit your head on anything up there." She returned, not ashamed of her height.
[9:22 PM] GM Boone: The SkyTrain trip is quiet and uneventful. You reach the stop without incident, and you can see the target building from the elevated train platform. It is a 3 floor cube building with entrances on the north and east sides, with a well lit parking lot surrounding it.
[9:25 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace studies the building and will move if/when his companions move. "Gonna need a floorplan, boss." He says to Spider over comms.
[9:26 PM] GM Boone: "Check shorty's deck," says Spider over the comms. There's a brief flash from one of the LEDs on Kali's deck, signaling data transfer.
[9:29 PM] Kali Alvarez: Kali catches the flash from her deck, bringing up the floor plan once it had been transfered. "So thoughts here? Navigating not my thing. Figured one of you two would be better off leading." She motioned between Jace and Sage. "We've got what? Entrances on north and east." She scanned over the plans.
[9:31 PM] GM Boone: The floor plan isn't labeled, but the first and second floors appear to be mostly cubicles. There's a central column of elevators in the middle of the building. On the third floor, there are some larger rooms with what looks like equipment of some kind, not cubicles.
[9:31 PM] GM Boone: It is laid out in such a way that all rooms exit out into a main hallway surrounding the elevators.
[9:34 PM] Sage: "Looks like most of the office related things are on the first two floors. That third floor might be where they've got the servers and things. I hate the idea of just walking up there though. I don't really feel like volunteering to get shot again."
[9:40 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace chuckles and looks over Kali's shoulder at the building plans. He points to the side door on the east side. "Let's check that out. See if that's our way in." He heads off the train platform and towards the parking lot.
[9:42 PM] Kali Alvarez: "Pretty sure none of us want bullet holes" Kali agreed with Sage and also shared the same thought of the servers being on the third floor possibly. "I can't the servers would be on any other floor, so third floor is definitely a likely." She traced close behind Jace as he began to move. "I can get the data from their network from any source on the first floor, if you can get me in there. Then get to the servers to trash the backups" She mentioned.(edited)
[9:43 PM] Sage: Sage trails behind the other two, glancing around for anyone watching. "Still going to be a hell of a time getting in there. What sort of security have they got?"(edited)
[9:43 PM] GM Boone: Everyone, make a Perception roll.

[9:45 PM] GM Boone: (one sec, phone)
[9:53 PM] GM Boone: Sorry about that. Back now. You all notice a pair of small security cameras, one by each door. Kali and Jace notice the wires for those cameras running along the outside of the building and into a small opening over each door frame.
[9:54 PM] GM Boone: The cameras are stationary.
[9:54 PM] Sage: ((how dark is the surrounding area? Lit by streetlamps or anything?))
[9:56 PM] GM Boone: There are light posts in the parking lot spaced out to evenly light the lot. However, the post on the west side is in the process of dying so it's pretty dim on that side.
[9:58 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace sets a hand on Kali's shoulder. "There. Go in at an angle and we can cut the feed. I'm not seeing a much better alternative just yet." To Spider, "What are the chances they have someone on monitor duty?"
[9:59 PM] GM Boone: "Datasheet says there should be four mall cops walking around this shift, but I got no idea who's on what duty."
[10:00 PM] Jace Deckard: "This kinda place, if there is a guy watching a monitor, he's probably napping." Jace mutters, looking to his two companions.
[10:01 PM] Sage: "It really doesn't look like much"(edited)
[10:03 PM] Kali Alvarez: Kali gives a glance over the camera, following the wire with her eyes as Jace points it out. "We might have some time before they notice they're missing a camera or two. Hopefully enough time." She says, being the first to move towards the direction of the camera. She watched to make sure she was out of its line of sight, following Jace's words.
[10:03 PM] Sage: Sage hisses. "you want me to do that? What if they're thermal? What if you get shot?"
[10:04 PM] Sage: he mutters to Jace, "What if she can't reach the cameras?"
[10:05 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace has to stifle a chuckle. "Ah .... I'll hoist her up?" He shook his head, very amused. "Easy, short stack. Sage is right. Let's save the risk taking for later." He motions to Sage to go first, kind of pointing out the path that would best avoid detection by the camera.
[10:06 PM] Kali Alvarez: "Hey, I heard that. Ass. Then get over here and give me a boost." Kali shot back just as quickly, realizing it was going to be a few inches out of her reach. She gave a roll of her eyes. "Fine."
[10:07 PM] Sage: Sage slides forward, doing his best to stay low and out of sight of the cameras, edging toward the building.
[10:08 PM] GM Boone: Sage, roll Dex to sneak your way to the cameras. +1 due to spatial awareness.

[10:10 PM] GM Boone: Sage is a living shadow and finds himself underneath the camera with security none the wiser.
[10:11 PM] Sage: He waves back at his companions and examines the wires under the camera. "alright pipsqueak, what do I do with it now?"(edited)
[10:12 PM] Kali Alvarez: "Just tear them out, like, all of them."
[10:13 PM] Sage: Sage obliges, ripping at the wires where they connect to the camera

[11:48 PM] Kali Alvarez: Kali makes an attempt to sneak up behind the guard facing Sage.
[11:49 PM] GM Boone: Jace manages to lock the guard in a chokehold. The guard struggles violently, pawing at his arm and kicking back at his shins. Sage, meanwhile, whiffs again on his punch. Kali is unnoticed by the guard facing Sage. It is now the guards turn.
[11:50 PM] GM Boone: One guard is stuck in a choke hold. He attempts to break free.

[11:52 PM] GM Boone: Kali, roll strength.
[11:52 PM] Sage: Sage is now absolutely determined to prove he's not as abysmal at this fighiting thing as he really is. One more punch at the guy's jaw

[11:58 PM] GM Boone: There is a chair.
November 4, 2017
[12:00 AM] Sage: Motivated by his success, Sage swings again
[12:00 AM] Jace Deckard: So very done with this shit, Jace dives for the other gun and grabs it. He will then bring it up and aim at the other guard. "Drop it!"

[12:02 AM] GM Boone: Kali straight up smacks the guy in the head with a chair like she's Stone Cold, and then Jace is pointing a gun at him, and his night is ruined and everything is terrible.
[12:03 AM] GM Boone: "Okay, okay! Jesus I don't get paid enough for this!" He drops his gun and puts his hands up.
[12:03 AM] Jace Deckard: Jace kinda feels like a dick but holds the gun steady. "You two finish the job. Back there." He nods to where the server is.
[12:04 AM] Sage: Sage glances at the bullet riddled servers. "Well i guess thats one way to get things done, Go ahead pipsqueak."
[12:05 AM] Kali Alvarez: Kali drops the chair, gives a shrug. "Got it." She heads over towards the servers, looking through for the one that was holding the back up files on nightwatch.
[12:06 AM] Jace Deckard: Jace motions to the chair to get the guard to sit down.
[12:06 AM] Sage: "You alright boyscout? looked like he hit you pretty good back there"
[12:06 AM] GM Boone: Kali finds the backup server. There is, handily, a tool kit sitting next to a nearby server rack. The guard slumps back into his seat.
[12:07 AM] Jace Deckard: Jace works his jaw. "It stings but I'll live. You alright?"
[12:07 AM] Kali Alvarez: Kali snags the tool kit in order to remove the server to destroy it.
[12:08 AM] GM Boone: The server chassis opens up easily enough. Inside are the easily breakable boards and chips, and some fancy, fragile solid state drives.
[12:09 AM] Sage: "not dead yet. So to speak. hows it going back there?"
[12:10 AM] Kali Alvarez: "Best part of the day." Kali takes each board, snapping it in pieces, and taking enjoyment in creating a mess out of the chips and drives. "I think I got it all. We should be good to go."
[12:10 AM] Jace Deckard: Jace uses his free hand to grab his wallet, pop it open, and pulls out a good few bills. He approaches the guard that took a chair to the face and pushes the cash against his chest. "For your trouble and cooperation. I wanna get myself and my friends outta here with no more trouble. Whaddaya say?"
[12:11 AM] Sage: Sage raises a hand. "bad time to mention there was someone outside knocking?"
[12:11 AM] GM Boone: The guard looks like one of those sad droopy-faced dogs. He takes the cash and sighs, defeated. "Okay."
[12:11 AM] Jace Deckard: Jace rolls his eyes. "Definitely a bad time. There another way out?" To the guard that he just paid off.
[12:12 AM] GM Boone: "Uh. There's just the two doors."
[12:13 AM] Jace Deckard: "Wonderful. I'm gonna give this back to you and I'm gonna trust you not to do a dumb, okay?" He motions Kali and Sage to head out then will give the gun back to the guard.
[12:14 AM] Kali Alvarez: Kali strides on out of the room, heading back towards the stairs.
[12:15 AM] GM Boone: The guard takes his gun in one hand, grabs a beer in the other, then turns his attention back to the last few minutes of Explosionforce. It involves several explosions.
[12:16 AM] Sage: Sage shoots Jace a pleading look. "One quick snack?"
[12:16 AM] Jace Deckard: "Go get the guard that was knocking. These two have had enough of a bad day."
[12:17 AM] Sage: He sighs dramatically and follows after Kali. "Fiiiine. boyscout."
[12:18 AM] Kali Alvarez: Kali gives a yawn, mostly wanting to get out of the building. "Hurry up."
[12:18 AM] Jace Deckard: Jace smiles but rolls his eyes and also follows Kali. He'll pull ahead of her and approach the door. If the guard is still there, he'll jerk open the door hard enough to hit the dude and hopefully knock him back out.
[12:18 AM] GM Boone: There is now a guard on the ground, groaning and stunned.
[12:19 AM] Jace Deckard: "There. One quick snack delivered."
[12:19 AM] Kali Alvarez: "ouch, that looks like it hurt."
[12:19 AM] Sage: "I'll take what I can get" With that he helps himself to a snack
[12:20 AM] Jace Deckard: Jace will usher Kali away and wait for Sage at the train before returning to the bar.

[10:09 PM] GM Boone: You are all kicking back at Lucky Sevens in the heart of the RPZ. A squad combat match is playing on the televisions hanging around the bar, featuring La Republique versus the Fushang Tigers. Seven, the owner, is tending bar. She was once the most famous arena fighter in Vancity – undefeated in 93 fights. In a world of plastic surgeons on every street corner, with her money and influence, the deep disfiguring battle scars still marring her face are deliberate statements.
[10:10 PM] GM Boone: She watches as deliverymen move in and out through the back doors, wheeling in kegs and crates of liquor. A tinny roar erupts in unison from the televisions as La Republique takes out one of the Tigers with a concussion grenade.
[10:10 PM] Baz Balan: ((Weather?))
[10:11 PM] GM Boone: Outside it's overcast and typically chilly.
[10:11 PM] Sage: ((time of day?))
[10:12 PM] GM Boone: Evening, past dinner time. The sun is beginning to set.
[10:15 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace is leaning against a pool table, waiting his turn.
[10:15 PM] Sage: Sage is slumped at one of the tables, his head propped up on one hand, trying to stay awake
[10:16 PM] Baz Balan: Today wasn’t a great day. The land hadn’t been kind and neither was the wind. The day’s forage hadn’t even bought him the drink Bas was sulking into at the bar. He thinks to himself about how only a few weeks ago bandits had vandalized his truck and looted his shop. At least they didn’t beat him this time. Baz hadn’t been in one place long enough to have any friends in town, but ever since his unfortunate luck, he had been frequenting the Sevens.
[10:17 PM] Baz Balan: He shly looks up at the woman tending the bar, smiles politely and points at his drink indicating he'd like another.
[10:18 PM] GM Boone: Seven, typically stone-faced, pulls her attention away from the deliverymen momentarily and pours Baz his refill. From outside the bar, you hear the sudden muffled snap and crackle of small-caliber gunfire. There’s a screech, a crash, the sound of crumpling metal and shattered glass. Voices erupt, shouting, along with another small burst of gunfire.
[10:20 PM] Sage: Sage gets to his feet, surprisingly calm considering the clamor outside and yawns. No better way to start your night than with something that sounds painful and violent.
[10:21 PM] Baz Balan: ((Is Seven still by me?))
[10:21 PM] GM Boone: Seven is still at the bar after having served Baz. She lets out an annoyed huff. This is no rare occurrence. She leans over to glance at the scene out of the bar’s front window. Then she looks back at the deliverymen still hauling in inventory. Then she rolls her eyes and shakes her head.
[10:22 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace looks over, unimpressed but casually alert as gunfire around these parts isn't altogether uncommon. He also keeps a eye on his pool buddy, considering he doesn't trust him enough to not "nudge" his way towards a win while he's distracted.
[10:22 PM] Baz Balan: Baz's eyes, trained on the sound he says to Seven without looking "Expecting trouble tonight?"
[10:23 PM] GM Boone: "There's trouble every night." She surveys the bar, glancing over all of you, and announces to the room in a mostly flat and slightly irritated voice: “There’s a hundred bucks in it for anyone who goes out there to shut that shit down.”
[10:24 PM] Sage: Sage pats his pockets and finds nothing but an empty wallet and his medkit. "You care what happens to the guys who started it?"
[10:26 PM] Baz Balan: One hundred city dollars!? Baz's mind reeled with possibilities. He leaps to his feet and immediately follows the sound, all while patting down his harnesses making a mental check of his dagger and tools.
[10:26 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace swaps his pool stick for a (currently collapsed) compound bow. "Does anyone ever?" He responds to Sage, drily, looking at him askance. He looks to Seven for verification but only in passing as he's headed for the front door.(edited)
[10:27 PM] Baz Balan: Baz grins enthusiastically at the one-liner.
[10:29 PM] GM Boone: "They started it, they can get what's coming to them," Seven answers flatly. Once this haphazard mercenary crew is on its way, she returns to cleaning glasses and watching the deliveries.
[10:29 PM] GM Boone: On the street outside the bar, you see the cause of the commotion. There’s a kitted out silver and blue street racer crashed into a telephone pole, the front end crumpled and smoking. There are three young men crouching behind it, also wearing silver and blue, one bleeding heavily from a cut on his forehead.
[10:30 PM] GM Boone: Everyone, roll INT/LVL
[10:30 PM] GM Boone: format for rolling is: !roll 1d20+bonus
[10:30 PM] Jace Deckard: !roll 1d20
[10:30 PM] BOTWintermute: Author: Jace Roll: !roll 1d20 Result: 5 Unmodified: (5)

[10:31 PM] BOTWintermute: Author: Sage Stotto Roll: !roll 1d20+1 Result: 14 Unmodified: (13)
[10:33 PM] GM Boone: Jace and Baz don't know who these guys are or what the colours mean. Sage recognizes the gang. They're local street racers that call themselves the Blue Devils. They're known to be pretty harmless.
[10:33 PM] Baz Balan: ((can I roll perception to discern the cause of the crash?))
[10:34 PM] GM Boone: You don't need to, because 25ft away from the wreck you can see 4 young men and women armed with handguns, wearing green bandannas over their faces. They’re positioned behind parked cars and a dumpster, intermittently firing at the Blues. The Blues pop up from behind their wrecked car just enough to fire back. Bullets fly all over the street, but not towards you.
[10:35 PM] Sage: Sage keeps himself tucked carefully in the shadows of the door, watching the firefight and turning a bit green at the thought of getting involved. "You sure you two are up for getting involved in a gang shootout?"
[10:37 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace is looking around for cover (the rooftops, the street, etc.) because he's not comfortable advancing like a wrecking ball. "I'm thinking we should be asking you that question." He responds without looking for more than a half second at Sage and his case of nerves, still scanning his area.
[10:38 PM] Baz Balan: "Are you kidding me?" Baz says in disbelief, “She said she’d pay us one hundred dollars! I need that money. Besides, this wouldn’t have been the first time I’ve been shot at this week. Seven said just needs them shut down right?”
[10:39 PM] GM Boone: Jace observes an alley adjacent to Lucky Sevens, the opening of it facing the firefight. There is a dumpster in that alley that would provide half decent cover.
[10:42 PM] Baz Balan: Baz looks around for a decent vantage spot he could portal to
[10:42 PM] Jace Deckard: "Right." Jace agrees, then points to said alley. "If you don't want to get immediately shot in the face, there's a good spot."
[10:44 PM] Sage: Sage sighs. "A dumpster, what luck. They're not even shooting at us yet."
[10:44 PM] GM Boone: Baz sees a short building, maybe two storeys tall, between the Blues and the Greens that would provide a good vantage point over the fight. However, there is no cover on that rooftop.
[10:45 PM] GM Boone: While you're all talking, the Blues and Greens keep shooting at each other. Rolling Blues:
[10:45 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace smirks and looks to Sage. He's mostly teasing when he says, "I plan to be outside the dumpster taking cover but feel free to hop on in if you feel safer."
[10:45 PM] GM Boone: !roll 3d20+1

[10:47 PM] GM Boone: The Blues are taking a beating and aren't in a position to deal much damage back. One of them takes two slugs in the arm and drops behind the car, yelling in pain.
[10:48 PM] Sage: Sage returns the smirk with a fanged one of his own, suggesting "I'm still considering the plan of using it to stash a body later, are you volunteering?"(edited)
[10:48 PM] Jace Deckard: "Nah." Jace grins and starts moving (quickly) towards the alley and his chosen cover system.
[10:51 PM] Sage: ((how much cover is available behind the car with the blue devils?))(edited)
[10:52 PM] GM Boone: The wrecked car offers partial cover. The enemy will take a -1 to hit you and damage is reduced by 25%
[10:53 PM] GM Boone: Jace is able to make it to the dumpster without incident as the gangsters are too busy shooting at each other and hurling juveline insults back and forth.
[10:53 PM] Baz Balan: Warping the space before him, Baz opens a portal to the rooftop, the connecting one inside the bar. Low to the ground he emerges, only his dark, crouched figure peaking over the edge. Taking in the new vantage point, he considers his options.
[10:53 PM] Sage: Sage curses under his breath and jogs after Jace as his other companion disappears
[10:53 PM] Baz Balan: ((Can I see anything differently from up here?))
[10:54 PM] GM Boone: Baz, roll PER/LVL with a +1 due to the vantage point.
[10:54 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace has his bow out once he reaches cover and crouches low, making sure not to leave himself an easy target. He takes a second to really look at the Greens and attempt to sight down the biggest threat.
[10:54 PM] Baz Balan: !roll 1d20+1
[10:54 PM] BOTWintermute: Author: Sebastian Balan Roll: !roll 1d20+1 Result: 4 Unmodified: (3)
[10:55 PM] Baz Balan: ((oof))
[10:55 PM] Jace Deckard: (( LOL happens to the best of us. ))
[10:56 PM] GM Boone: Baz doesn't see anything of note.
[10:57 PM] Baz Balan: Slowly his crouched form moves across the rooftop, making sure to stay out of sight as best he can. Baz peers down the side of building for a way down.
[10:58 PM] Baz Balan: ((This would be on the greens side))
[11:00 PM] Sage: Sage keeps himself low and against the side of the dumpster, grimacing at the smell. "You uhhh need a distraction or something? Forgot my gun in my other jacket."
[11:00 PM] GM Boone: Baz sees a rusty ladder leading down into a tight alleyway. However, the opening of the alleyway is almost directly in line with the Greens.
[11:01 PM] GM Boone: Jace spies one Green who seems to be calling the shots more than the others. If you are going to engage in combat, you may state your attack actions.
[11:01 PM] Sage: ((sage will ready an action to flail and draw fire away from Jace because he owns no weapons))
[11:02 PM] Jace Deckard: (( Lmaoooo that mental picture, tho. ))
[11:02 PM] Baz Balan: ((Is the rusty ladder, like one of those fire escape ladders? Like does it reach all the way to the ground?))
[11:03 PM] GM Boone: The ladder stops maybe a couple feet above the ground, but the drop won't hurt.
[11:04 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace is gonna hold still and line up a shot on the "leader" for this round. "Give me until the count of five, yeah? One ... two ... "
[11:04 PM] Baz Balan: ((Can Baz see his allies from up there as well?))
[11:05 PM] GM Boone: Yes
[11:07 PM] Baz Balan: Seeing his new found comrads ready themselves for an attack, he digs deep, waiting on the fringes of his firey nerves for the shot to be made. He readies his mind to reach into his abilities quickly if need be. Slowly he decends the rusty ladder.
[11:08 PM] GM Boone: !roll d100
[11:08 PM] BOTWintermute: Valid dice roll command not found. Command: !roll d100 Type !help roll for dice-rolling help.

[11:09 PM] Jace Deckard: " .... Five." Jace lets the arrow go. (Focus, +35)
[11:09 PM] GM Boone: The rusty ladder is more precarious than it looks, but it holds up while Baz descends
[11:09 PM] GM Boone: Roll attack, Jace.
[11:09 PM] Jace Deckard: !roll 1d20+2
[11:09 PM] BOTWintermute: Author: Jace Roll: !roll 1d20+2 Result: 14 Unmodified: (12)
[11:10 PM] Sage: Sage jumps up and steps forward into view, shouting. "Oy, shit head greenies! Who think's they're good enough to take on the Blue Devils! Come out and fight me!"
[11:11 PM] GM Boone: Jace lands with his shot, the arrow embedded deep into the Green leader's shoulder. He lets out a yelp, but before they can see where the shot came from, Sage steps into view and yells at them.
[11:11 PM] Baz Balan: ((Am I on the ground yet?))
[11:11 PM] GM Boone: Yes
[11:12 PM] Baz Balan: Baz quietly, but with haste makes his way the the closest Green. Staying in any shadows he can, as silently as he can.
[11:14 PM] GM Boone: Presently all eyes are on Sage, and the Greens don't notice Baz sneaking up on them. There is one Green almost right up against the wall, allowing Baz to stay in the shadows near the mouth of the alley.
[11:14 PM] GM Boone: The Blues take this opportunity to fire back at the Greens
[11:14 PM] GM Boone: !roll 3d20+1
[11:14 PM] BOTWintermute: Author: GM Boone Roll: !roll 3d20+1 Result: 8,15,19 Unmodified: (7,14,18)
[11:16 PM] GM Boone: The Blues land a couple good ones, picking away at the Greens. Their haphazard street gang armour is starting to look a little worse for wear. But now it is their turn to fire back.
[11:17 PM] GM Boone: !roll 4d2
[11:17 PM] BOTWintermute: Author: GM Boone Roll: !roll 4d2 Result: 1,1,2,1 Unmodified: (1,1,2,1)
[11:17 PM] Baz Balan: ((WOW))
[11:17 PM] Sage: ((can the enemy always roll d2's please?))
[11:17 PM] GM Boone: I'm just rolling for who they're attacking, lol.
[11:17 PM] Baz Balan: ((these guys are gooooons ))
[11:18 PM] Baz Balan: ((sorry didn't see the d2))
[11:18 PM] GM Boone: Three of the Greens take aim at the Blues, seeing them still as the bigger threat. But one of them is sick of Sage's yelling and sends a bullet the vampire-medic's way.
[11:18 PM] GM Boone: !roll 3d20+1
[11:18 PM] BOTWintermute: Author: GM Boone Roll: !roll 3d20+1 Result: 3,3,9 Unmodified: (2,2,8)

[11:20 PM] GM Boone: Sage feels the bullet whip right past his ear.
[11:20 PM] Sage: ((Evasion of 11, so that's a hit?))
[11:21 PM] GM Boone: Vamp evasion is actually 12, I had to double check on the race page.
[11:21 PM] Sage: ((but he's got a lower dex, giving him a -1))(edited)
[11:21 PM] GM Boone: Oh that's right.
[11:21 PM] GM Boone: The bullet grazes the side of Sage's head and gives him a nasty bleed.
[11:22 PM] Baz Balan: With great care and a steady hand Baz pick pockets the closest green against the wall.
[11:22 PM] GM Boone: Baz, roll DEX/LVL.
[11:22 PM] Baz Balan: !roll 1D20+1

[11:25 PM] GM Boone: !roll 1d20
[11:25 PM] BOTWintermute: Author: GM Boone Roll: !roll 1d20 Result: 6 Unmodified: (6)
[11:25 PM] GM Boone: Baz comes up empty-handed, but the Green is so focused on the fight that he doesn't notice.
[11:26 PM] Sage: Sage ducks back down, applying pressure to the wound. "I'm fine. Hardly even a scrape. Nice shot by the way."
[11:27 PM] Jace Deckard: Jace smiles but doesn't take his eyes off his target. "Thanks. Nice distraction technique."
[11:27 PM] Sage: "My specialty. Let me know when we're going for round two"
[11:28 PM] GM Boone: Jace and Sage, you may make your combat actions when ready.
[11:28 PM] GM Boone: Baz, you still have movement left for this turn if you want to take it.
[11:28 PM] Baz Balan: ((can I make an attack?))
[11:29 PM] GM Boone: You can attack or move.
[11:29 PM] Jace Deckard: "This is me letting you know that we're going for round two." Says to Sage with a grin and then fires.
[11:29 PM] Baz Balan: Being so close, and undetected Baz removes his dagger and plunges it into the closest vital organ of his Green.
[11:30 PM] GM Boone: When attacking, please state your total damage after your post just to make it easier for me.
[11:30 PM] Sage: Sage ducks around the other side of the dumpster and resumes his waving and namecalling.
[11:30 PM] GM Boone: And then roll when ready.
[11:30 PM] Jace Deckard: * (Focus, 35)
[11:31 PM] Baz Balan: ((roger that))

[11:34 PM] GM Boone: Jace's arrow goes wide, sticking into a sign behind one of the Greens advertising 'Holo Nudes'. Meanwhile, Baz stabs one of the Greens right in the kidney. He wails and staggers forward, then stumbles around until he faces his attacker.
[11:34 PM] GM Boone: The Blues return fire.

Hi all,

I'm aiming to set up a rough quest schedule so I would like to see when everyone is available. I understand the holidays are coming up, so please separate your "holiday hours" from your regular hours.

Just post which days of the week work best for you, and a rough time frame (in EST for my sanity) when you can be available on those days. If your schedule fluctuates, that's fine, just indicate that your availability is tentative.

My availability:

Mon-Thurs: After 7:30 PM, some days after 6 PM but varies week to week, up until 10:30 PM
Friday: 7:30 PM to 1AM or later
Saturday: 1:30 PM to 1AM or later
Sunday: All day until 10:30 PM

Holidays: will be away from 23rd to Jan 1 so unable to host quests.
