Lazerus and Mira returned fire, the psyker knowing that his shot rang true. The loud gunshots, a known noise on the advanced, gunpowder feudal world, created a panic and alerted the local Enforcers. +++ [20:13] <@BradGM> ++++++++End Transmission++++++++ [20:13] <+Mira_Atella> (( sorry, I'm here, just trying to get this stupid fragment that requires throwing a moogle against a wall and bouncing it off two pillars )) [20:15] * +Mira_Atella disassembles her rifle in a few quick motions, putting it back in her bag then raising her hands. "We didn't start this, someone fired on us!" [20:16] <+Mira_Atella> (( got it! woo )) [20:17] * +Grendel lays on the ground, twitching, arrows having piecerced the cowl of his cloak. [20:17] <@BradGM> **A few of them keep you in check, but they disperse, pointing their crossbows at the windows and houses around. They also check on the woudned.** [20:18] * +Lazerus_Grim releases the grip of his rifle and holds both his hands in a submissive gesture. [20:21] <@BradGM> **a Few gruff looking men wearing cuirrass approaches toward Elana and tries to get her up. Another scum-like Watchmen with a battered plastron approaches you lazerus. "So what happened old man?" [20:22] <@BradGM> Sgt. "Already surrendering? Got a price on your head?" [20:22] <@BradGM> *He takes your face and turns it to see it form the side, then on the other side.** [20:23] <+Mira_Atella> (( they're kind of far apart right? Mira dove behind the statue, so they can't talk exactly without yelling? )) [20:23] * +Lazerus_Grim trie to push his hands aside. 1"I have no price on my head! WE are the victims here!" [20:23] <@BradGM> ((pretty much yeah.)) [20:24] * +Mira_Atella shoots a look to Lazerus, but only for a moment before returning the watchmen as her focus. [20:24] <@BradGM> ((Lazerus, roll fellowship or charm)) [20:25] <+Lazerus_Grim> !dhroll 30 [20:25] <+Servitor> Lazerus_Grim: 77 Failure by 4 degrees! [20:25] <@BradGM> Sgt "I know, just that like that in daylight, seems like someone was sending a mesage here." [20:27] <@BradGM> **Mira, the couple of watchmen near you and Grendel seems half facinated, half fearful of the twitching tech-Priest "Holy Emperor, Throne of Terra! Is it still alive?" [20:27] * +Lazerus_Grim slings the rifle over his shoulder. 1"We may still catch them if we pursue them immediately." [20:28] <@BradGM> Sgt "We'd better get you to the watchhouse, get your...depot..jisition." [20:28] * +Mira_Atella looks at Grendel, "He's going to need special attention, hopefully you have someone mechanically inclined?" [20:28] <@BradGM> Sgt. "We'll handle it." *He head's up toward the hosues, where another group of watchmen are busy getting in.** [20:30] <@BradGM> Watchmen "WEll I don't know anyone that can fix that, there's maybe the Coal King." [20:30] <@BradGM> Watchmen 2"Shh..You want him to ehar you?" [20:30] <@BradGM> **Lazerus, Demon bruhes past your leg and stops at your side.** [20:31] <@BradGM> WAtchmen "It's all right, the Sargeant knows him I heard." [20:31] * +Grendel makes a mechanical groaning sound. [20:32] <@BradGM> **The Watchmen moves back a step at the sound** [20:32] * +Lazerus_Grim kneels to pet his dog. "When do we leave, Sergeant?" [20:32] * +Mira_Atella raises up from her kneeling position behind the statue. [20:32] <@BradGM> Watchmen "Sargeant Ulric!" **Lazerus, the man facing you turn to the yelling watchmen with Mira and Grendle.** [20:32] <@BradGM> Sgt "Come with me old man." [20:33] <@BradGM> **He goes toward the yelling wathcmen.** [20:33] <@BradGM> Sgt. "What's going on?" [20:34] <@BradGM> Watchmen "The metal thing's loking bad, it made a sound." [20:35] * +Lazerus_Grim follows the sergeant. 1"You mind if I have a look at him, Sir?" [20:36] <@BradGM> Sgt "You know that kind of thing old man? Go ahead..." *He doens't sound too pleased, but he,s clearing out of his field of expetise.** [20:37] * +Mira_Atella watches quietly, lower her arms to her sides. [20:39] * +Lazerus_Grim steps up to Grendel and kneels beside him. He makes a show of looking over the Tech-Priest, checking crossbow bolts and other bruises. (manifest Healer, then Dull Pain) [20:39] <+Lazerus_Grim> 1d10 [20:39] <+Servitor> Lazerus_Grim: 4 [20:39] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((Success on healer)) [20:39] <+Lazerus_Grim> 1d5 [20:39] <+Servitor> Lazerus_Grim: 1 [20:39] <@BradGM> ((le crap..faith it?))

Grendle, you awake with a horrible headacke, your facial mask is damaged.** [20:42] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((Success plus 1, Remove 2 Levels of Fatigue)) [20:43] <@BradGM> **The headacke quickly leaves your head, replaced by a mild beating vein in the forehead.** [20:43] * +Grendel groans in electronic pain, struggling to reboot and refocus his augmentics. "W hat happened?" [20:45] <@BradGM> **The watchmen moves back move, the Sarge moves a step, but doens't seems afraid or surprised by Grendel's presence, if only by the fact that he's up after taking multiple arrows to the head.** [20:45] <@BradGM> Watchmen "Emperor preserves us, it talks!" [20:47] <+Lazerus_Grim> "w [20:47] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Welcome back to the living side, old friend. We're safe, for the moment." [20:48] * +Grendel reaches up, adjusting his helmet and examining the damage done to him by the arrows. "I see. The others?" [20:49] * +Lazerus_Grim looks over to the sister. 1"She does not seem to be very alive...." [20:49] <@BradGM> Sgt "I got my best man to get her to the barber-surgeon." [20:50] * +Grendel runs through various diagnostics, testing his movement as well as his senses, before moving on to the mechadendrites, the optical stalk examining the sister before the group surrounding him. "And these?" [20:51] <@BradGM> Sgt "These what?" [20:52] <@BradGM> ((or waht that to Laz?)) [20:52] <@BradGM> ((*or was that to Laz?)) [20:53] <+Grendel> ((That was to LAz)) [20:54] * +Grendel struggles to his feet, glancing around, moving like a damaged machine. "Our opponents?" [20:54] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Servants of the Baron, and hopefully the Emperor. Local law enforcement, it would seem." [20:56] * +Grendel frowns and moves over to the Sister, examining her closely with the optical mechadendrite. "I see." [20:56] <@BradGM> **The Sgt is shocked, enough to get into Lazerus' face "This is an Emperor town old man, you better check your mouth or you'd better get used to get your food from water.* [20:57] * +Mira_Atella watches the happenings, frowning a bit. "Whatever is happening, needs to happen immediately." [20:58] <@BradGM> **Grendle, Elana has beent aken to a local shoppe, a barber-surgeon, which is exactly how the sign tells it: E. Gallon, Barber-surgeon.** [20:59] * +Lazerus_Grim holds his hands up. 1"I meant no offense, kind sir, but these days you can't make any assumptions. I'm glad to know you're on the side of the Emperor." [20:59] <@BradGM> **The Sgt calms donw "Right let's..hey, where's the metal one going?" [21:01] <@BradGM> **inside the shoppe, the tough Watchmen are placng the sister on a wooden table, where a thin and frail looking middle aged man wearing crude spectacles and an apron dirty with coats and coats of dried blood.** [21:02] * +Grendel stretches his mechadendries out completely, making sure they are undamaged before pulling them in as he enters the shoppe, studying the interior before examining the Sister. [21:03] <@BradGM> Sgt "You two, follow me." **He motions Mira and Lazerus to follow him as he goes toward the barber-surgeon.** [21:03] * +Lazerus_Grim obeys, calling Demon along with him. [21:03] <@BradGM> **Meanwhile, Grendel, as you enter the shoppe, the watchmen all turn toward you, looking at you, not too sure how to react." [21:04] <+Grendel> "How is she?" [21:04] * +Mira_Atella follows behind the sergeant. [21:05] <@BradGM> "What?" **The thin man is having trouble looking over the pseudowall of watchmen blocking his view.* [21:07] * +Grendel runs a quick diagnostic to make sure his speech centers are functioning properly. He decides that they are, and that the man is hard of hearing, and increaes the volume slightly. "I said, how is she?" [21:07] <@BradGM> **He finally sees you Grendel, and stops in his tracks, mesmerized by you.** [21:07] <@BradGM> Surgeon "Huh..oh ah..she got shot to the ehad with arrows..unsusual types at that.". [21:09] * +Grendel moves closer, examining both the arrows and the sister. [21:09] <@BradGM> **He returns to the sister, and begins his work, getting out a large leather bound book, with multiple page ripped off. The gruff watchmen are even more uneasy by that " I don't think you should use that book on a Sororitas, Gallon." [21:10] * +Lazerus_Grim waits at the door with Demon, knowing the Sister would not appreciate his help here. [21:10] <@BradGM> **Elana is loosing blood at a serious rate; the shock of the head blows surely brough her loss of concience, but shE'll die without medical assistance." [21:12] <@BradGM> **The sgt also seems uneased by the apparition of the book, which seems to be a tome of human medicae knowledge, but many ripped iinformation.** [21:12] * +Grendel steps forward, the medical mechadendrite twitching as the stapler loads. [21:13] <+Grendel> ((Can staunch her bleeding as a half action)) [21:13] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Let me know if I am absolutely needed, Grendel. You may want to step aside, Barber." [21:13] <@BradGM> Gallon "Wh..waht?" [21:13] <@BradGM> **He was dived in his book.** [21:13] <+Mira_Atella> (( er, aren't we in two different places? )) [21:15] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((sergeant lead us after Grendel to the barber shop)) [21:15] <+Grendel> ((Grendel went to the barber shot that was close by apparently)) [21:15] <@BradGM> ((well, you followed Elana, and she was taken there)) [21:15] <+Mira_Atella> (( ah, I thought he was taking us somewhere else )) [21:16] <@BradGM> ((yeah,, until Grendel ran off)) [21:17] <@BradGM> **Gallon moves back as Grendle approaches the table.** [21:17] * +Grendel focuses the optical mechadendrite on the book that's making everyone else nervous as he uses the stapler to staunch the bleeding. [21:19] <@BradGM> **You staunch the bleeding; as for the book, is it your standartized medicea encyclopedia with many pages ripped, but with purpose more than ripped.** [21:19] <+Grendel> ((uh, say that again in American? :) )) [21:20] <+Mira_Atella> (( that was :P or I understood it anyway lol )) [21:20] <+Mira_Atella> (( they stopped the bleeding, and the book is well worn )) [21:20] <@BradGM> **as is the pages were removed rather than ripped, as the many, many ripped pages are all ripped in a perfect line like using a ruler** [21:22] <@BradGM> **Gallon comes closer and observe the work "He stopped the bleeding! Using those..tiny metal curved nails.." [21:22] <+Grendel> ((Ah..so not just ware and tear, but actual destruction)) [21:22] <@BradGM> ((yes)) [21:22] <@BradGM> ((and more cold, selective destruction than a random ripping fury)) [21:22] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((knowledge corrupts, surgeon, we'll have to keep it from you)) [21:23] <@BradGM> ((or the need is there, but we need to control the need, so to speak)) [21:23] * +Grendel studies the damage done to the sister. "Send word to the Sisters, they should take care of her." [21:24] <@BradGM> Sgt. "I'll send someone to the Temple, Gallon, get those arrows out of her, and get them to the watchhouse. You three, you follow. Belog, you coem with us." [21:25] * +Mira_Atella takes after the Sergeant once again. [21:25] <@BradGM> **One of the watchmen nods "All right, you ehard the Sargeant. Time for a walk." [21:26] * +Lazerus_Grim mentally calls for Demon to 14Come 6and follows after the watchman. [21:26] <+Grendel> "I wish to have one of the arrows myself." [21:28] <@BradGM> Sgt "you'll get to se them when we get to see them metla man. Now follow." [21:29] <@BradGM> **He takes you across the plaza, passed the ambush location toward the gates of the City that follows the Coast. There you're taken to a sturdy, but worn, 2 story stone building looking almost like a smalll fort. You enter by a side door, giving into the inner courtyard where a few men are trianing or playing cards and taking it easy between two shifts.** [21:30] * +Mira_Atella looks around slowly, taking in exits, counting persons, and generally being paranoid. [21:30] * +Grendel follows, pulling the mechadendrites in close, but keeping an eye out for another ambush. [21:31] <@BradGM> Sgt. "All right, I'll need you to surrender your weapons before we get in. Don't want you to get all crazy and start shooting those light guns or explodin' balls now.** [21:32] <+Mira_Atella> (( the bodysuit conceals her knives, so she really only has to give up the rifle, yeah? )) [21:32] * +Lazerus_Grim hands over the rifle, scythe, and buckler, not making any move to give up his concealed folding knife. [21:33] <@BradGM> ((the only saw the rifle, yes; and if it's in the openo f course.)) [21:33] * +Grendel just looks unimpressed. [21:34] <@BradGM> ((you ahve no open weapons Grendle?)) [21:34] <@BradGM> ((or all under robes?)) [21:34] * +Mira_Atella removes the rifle from her bag and hands it over, "This was custom and very expensive. Do you have a coat check tag?" Her sarcasm is more than obvious. [21:36] <@BradGM> Sgt "What's a cheqtag coat?" [21:37] <+Mira_Atella> "Nevermind, just don't damage it." [21:37] <+Mira_Atella> "A small friend of mine would probably hunt you down if you did." She gives a smile. [21:37] <+Grendel> ((under the robes, and you can't give up the ballistic mechadendrite :) )) [21:39] <@BradGM> Sgt "Don't get tough with me girly." *He takes you inside to the second floor to an office with a couple of chairs, a desk, with a small barred window giving into the courtyard** [21:40] <@BradGM> **Sargeant Ulric stis down behind the desk, not too pleased and takes some pre-arraged form and a quill and ink** [21:41] <@BradGM> Sgt "I got to take a depotsicition before we can start our investigation fully." [21:41] <@BradGM> ((And you're in a closed office btw.)) [21:43] <+Grendel> "Deposition? [21:43] <+Grendel> " [21:45] * +Lazerus_Grim sits down in a chair across the table from the man. 1"We'd be happy to answer your questions." [21:45] * +Mira_Atella takes a seat, "Entirely happy, assuming it helps find out who attacked us." [21:46] <@BradGM> **The Sgt looks a bit surprised** "Hmm..ratehr rare your types are so willing to cooperate. Always the acting like thugs." [21:47] <+Grendel> "We were simply walking when we were attacked." [21:47] * +Mira_Atella arches a brow. "You must have us mistaken for someone else, if you think we are thugs." [21:48] <@BradGM> Sgt "Hey, just sayin' when we get outlanders in the city, they generally start trouble or were hired to make some. Not everyday you're the victim, not to mention escorting a Sororitas with one of them with you." [21:48] <@BradGM> **He points at Grendel when saying that." [21:50] * +Mira_Atella gives a look to Grendel, "He's an efficient tool, nothing more." [21:50] * +Grendel crosses his arms. "You have a problem with me?" [21:51] <@BradGM> Sgt. "No problem; you're even rarer, i only saw on of your types in here and it's Metalus, the one they call the Coal King." [21:52] <@BradGM> Sgt "He rules over the big smiths in the Northern districs." [21:53] <@BradGM> SGt "Says he can hear everything and takes you away to be burned into the furnace if you speak ill of him." [21:54] <@BradGM> Sgt "not the like other ones." [21:54] * +Grendel frowns, considering this "Coal king." "I see." [21:54] <+Mira_Atella> "That sounds rather, odd." [21:54] <@BradGM> "All pale and weird." [21:55] <+Lazerus_Grim> " [21:56] <+Lazerus_Grim> "But to the matter at hand, please, Sergeant." [21:56] <@BradGM> Sgt "It's just old wives tales. don't worry. He'd rather flogged you or replace you than burn you alive." [21:56] <@BradGM> Sgt "Yeah..the depotsicition." [21:56] <@BradGM> ((We can Rp the deposition, or you can just say what you tell the Sarge, inclusind but not limited to, why youR'e there, where oyu were gong,who do you work for etce tc...)) [21:57] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((i'm fine with either, i'll leave most of the talking to Mira either way)) [21:58] <+Grendel> ((Well, we're not going to say Inquisition I hope..business is good :) )) [21:58] <@BradGM> ((Oh yeah, mira is team leader! huzzzah Cyclops!)) [21:58] <+Mira_Atella> (( doesn't matter to me which we do, but I would say we give as little information as possible without actually lying )) [21:59] <+Mira_Atella> (( we're trying to find someone, we think they were involved in one of the shipping outfits.. that's about it heh )) [22:00] <@BradGM> ((aND GOT ATTACKED AT RANDOM?)) [22:00] <@BradGM> ((sorry caPS)) [22:00] <@BradGM> ((or send them on some semi-wld goose chase?)) [22:00] <+Mira_Atella> (( well we don't even know why that happened, technically, so we can't say )) [22:00] <@BradGM> ((that he had buddies and they don't want to go back etc etc.. [22:00] <@BradGM> )) [22:01] <@BradGM> ((ok)) [22:02] <@BradGM> **A couple of hours passes as the Sargeant carefully and slowly writes the deposition. During that time a clerk brough him a piece of paper. When he is done he gets up "Wait here." [22:03] <@BradGM> **He exits the room** [22:04] <@BradGM> ((gimme a second going to the bathroom bRBR)) [22:04] * +Grendel glances around. "Have we wasted enough time?" [22:06] * +Mira_Atella gives a bit of a snort, "Somehow, I don't think they're done." [22:07] <@BradGM> **The Sarge returns soon with one of the arrows. "Well it seems the Sororitas wll survive; she's being taken to the Temple, she's in the best of hands now.** [22:08] <@BradGM> Sgt "they also brought the arrows and checked the houses; someone got shot there were blood trails. they lead into the back alley and dissapear shortly after." [22:09] * +Grendel stands and reaches for the arrow, examining it closely. [22:09] <@BradGM> Sgt "You wanted to see one of those? It's like nothing I ever saw, like super polished black bone of sorts.." [22:10] * +Mira_Atella watches Grendel as he inspects the arrow.

NOW I can roll under a 10)) [22:14] * +Lazerus_Grim steps up beside the Tech-Priest and wracks his own brain for anything that matches this object. [22:14] <@BradGM> **The arrow is not made of bone, not at all, but a light weight polymeter plastic, a bit complicated to do, but something the Imperium as a whole uses commonly. The arrow head is treated steel, your typical Imperium Grade steel used in everything; something that this world's technological knowledge cannot attain. Even the feather are made of syntetic fibers...cont.. [22:15] <@BradGM> ...the materials are quite 'modern' for such a primitice weapon, but it is the pinnacle of manually powered range projectile technology on this planet.** [22:16] <@BradGM> **Also, that means either soneome is producing such items locally, or they come from an outside source.** [22:17] * +Grendel grunts in annoyance.

"It's not the first time that something like that happened." [22:24] <+Mira_Atella> "How do you mean?" [22:26] <@BradGM> Sgt "Well, not in the day like that of course, but about 6 months ago, there was some noble, The Earl of Bourfin and his entire family butchered in one night." [22:27] <@BradGM> Sgt "But I heard that all of his guards on Watch were shot in the head, which did not raised any alarms or guards." [22:28] <+Mira_Atella> "I know this made seem odd, given the situation, but is there a chance we could look at your files on the matter? If they were after us, it could help in figuring out who they are." [22:30] <@BradGM> Sgt. "No, you're not part of the Watch and you can't see them. What I can do is give you a mandate to act on the Watch's behalf." [22:30] * +Mira_Atella gives a nod. [22:31] * +Grendel turns over the arrow, considering. [22:32] <@BradGM> Sgt. "It's not lince to kill and it can be removed at any time; it's just honestly, the watch can't get anyone on the job right now." [22:32] <+Grendel> 'Why not?" [22:34] <@BradGM> Sgt. "What do you think we do all day? Sit around and do nothing? There's more than half a million people in Arnhut, and we're not for everyone." [22:36] * +Grendel nods and contingues to consider the arrow, grimacing slightly as his implants fizz slightly. [22:39] <+Lazerus_Grim> "How soon can we get that mandate and be on our way?" [22:39] <@BradGM> Sgt. "The tme I write them." [22:40] <@BradGM> **It takes 10 minutes for him to fill out your name and his to sign them on another pre-made form and gives them to you.** [22:41] * +Mira_Atella takes the paper and looks it over. "I hope we'll be given back our items as well." [22:41] * +Grendel thinks this would be much easier with a functioning noospheric atmopshere. [22:44] <@BradGM> **His writing looks like a child's, but at least it is readable; it states taht you have the same power as a watchman of Arnhuht, in the investigation of case file 2378 and signed by Sgt. Ulric.** [22:44] <@BradGM> Sgt. "Follow me, they're in the armoury." [22:45] * +Mira_Atella follows the Sergeant. [22:45] * +Lazerus_Grim trails along. [22:45] * +Grendel stands, not having too great of expectations. "The files?" [22:46] <@BradGM> **At the armoury, you are given back your weapons..** [22:48] * +Mira_Atella checks the rifle, folding it back in to a compact form and placing it in her bag. [22:48] * +Grendel looks around the armoury, confirming his expectations. [22:49] <@BradGM> **The Sgt gives you the little file they ahve on the ambush, basically your deposition, some bloody papper written by Gallon the barber-surgeon describiing what Grendel did and him removing the arrows, 18 or so arrows that were fired and recovered, and some scrippled note about the blood trails at the firing positions.** [22:50] <@BradGM> **The armoury is just filled with your typical array of primitive weapons, such as sword, clubs, hammers, crossbows, bows, arrows, bolts, pimitive armour as well.** [22:51] <+Grendel> "And the other reports?" [22:52] <@BradGM> Sgt. "What other report?" [22:52] * +Lazerus_Grim takes his weapons and waits for the rest of the team to complete their tasks. [22:53] * +Mira_Atella looks oddly at Grendel. [22:54] <+Grendel> "The ambush from 6months ago?" [22:54] <+Mira_Atella> "He said we couldn't have that." [22:55] <@BradGM> **That was in Maxwell. That's north of here, a couple of days or a ride on the steel beast." [22:55] <@BradGM> ((that was the Sgt taking)) [22:56] <+Grendel> "Then we will have ot go there?" [22:57] <@BradGM> Sgt "Pretty much. But I think you got something else to do here yeah? Not to menton it seems those people are after you, and you're here, see?." [22:58] * +Grendel nods. [22:59] <@BradGM> Sgt. "Good. Because those mandates doesn't work outside the city." [23:00] * +Grendel frowns. [23:02] <+Grendel> "Of course they do not. Then I suppose our first stop would be to the ambush site." [23:03] <@BradGM> Sgt. "Just you watch yourselves now. I don't want a panic in the streets." [23:03] <+Mira_Atella> "We may need to travel north to get that file, and then come back. Could you suggest something safe enough that we'd actually make it?" [23:06] <@BradGM> Sgt. "Well, the steel beast could be the fastest way there, and safest with Grendul on board maybe have some attack by Orks, but they're just xeno savages, easy to kill." [23:08] * +Grendel frowns at the mention of orks, frowning more as the motion pulls at some of the damage. "Ah." [23:09] <+Mira_Atella> "Thank you. I think we'll be fine with that." [23:11] <@BradGM> Sgt "May The God-Emperor guide you in your investigation." [23:12] * +Mira_Atella gives a nod and starts to leave the room, making sure the other two are following. [23:12] <+Grendel> "The Omnissiah provides." [23:13] * +Lazerus_Grim makes the sign of the Aquila with a bow and follows Mira out [23:14] * +Grendel follows the assassin and the psyker out, moving carefully. [23:15] * +Mira_Atella waits a moment until they are out of earshot, "We can't rely on what they've said. We have to get the information on our own. They couldn't even recognize those arrows. You could, Grendel?" [23:16] <+Mira_Atella> (( it's pretty funny hearing a heavy metal Chocobo song in some battles in this game... )) [23:17] <+Grendel> "High-tech Imperial arrows. Not something I would have expected to find on this planet, but not Xenos either. Do either of you have a medikit?" [23:17] * +Lazerus_Grim shakes his head. [23:17] <+Mira_Atella> "I didn't bring one, it would have been too bulky for my suit." [23:18] <@BradGM> ((..Couldn't you use your own mecharendrite on yourself?)) [23:18] <+Grendel> ((Sure, but the medikit gives more bonuses :) )) [23:19] * +Grendel nods and pauses, the medicae mechadendrite making clicking and hissing sounds as it begins to work on his wounds, the optical mechadendrite providing light and sight. [23:21] <+Grendel> ((Standard roll?)) [23:22] * Ribonizer (hehe@bas4-hull20-2925509285.dsl.bell.ca) Quit (Signed off) [23:22] <@BradGM> ((yes)) [23:22] <+Grendel> !dhroll 63 [23:22] <+Servitor> Grendel: 5 Success by 5 degrees! [23:24] <@BradGM> ((So you gain your Int bonus back in wounds)) [23:24] * +Grendel uses the chainscalpel to clear away some of the more damages parts before resuturing and realigning key components, and seems to be moving somewhat better after it all ends...even if it looks like he just jammed a buzzing chainblade into his face beneath his cowl. [23:25] * +Lazerus_Grim uses the pause in their mission to heal himself (manifest Healer). [23:25] <+Lazerus_Grim> 1d10 [23:25] <+Servitor> Lazerus_Grim: 10 [23:25] * +Mira_Atella arches a brow as Grendel proceeds. [23:25] <+Lazerus_Grim> 1d5 [23:25] <+Servitor> Lazerus_Grim: 1 [23:25] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((Fate)) [23:25] <+Lazerus_Grim> 1d5 [23:25] <+Servitor> Lazerus_Grim: 1 [23:25] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((figures)) [23:25] <@BradGM> ((damn)) [23:25] <@BradGM> ((you're at -2 now IIRC?)) [23:26] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((yeah. no fatigue, but -2)) [23:27] <@BradGM> ((Let's stop it here guys.)) [23:27] <@BradGM> +++++++Terminate Transmission+++++++
