[20:15] <@Braddoc> Then, as they drove in a deserted stretch of road, a pursuing vehicle suddenly rammed their car. A short gunfight ensures, before Parlow lost control of the car and it barrel rolled into the field [20:15] <@Braddoc>. Lazerus checked on Grendel and Parlow while Elana and Mira exited the wreck and shot their stalkers, sending the car into the ditch, the driver dead, the passenger having just rolled in the back seat, 35 meters away.++ [20:15] <@Braddoc> ++++++++End Transmission++++++++ [20:15] * Braddoc is now known as BradGN [20:15] * BradGN is now known as BradGM [20:15] * Servitor (~Servitor@modemcable176.168-23-96.mc.videotron.ca) has joined #Shadowrun [20:16] * Servitor (~Servitor@modemcable176.168-23-96.mc.videotron.ca) Quit (Read error: EOF from client) [20:17] <+Mira_Atella> (( want us to wait on that? )) [20:17] * Servitor (~Servitor@modemcable176.168-23-96.mc.videotron.ca) has joined #Shadowrun [20:17] <+Mira_Atella> (( tada.. nvm :) )) [20:18] * BradGM sets mode: +v Servitor [20:18] <@BradGM> !dhroll 11 [20:18] <+Servitor> BradGM: 76 Failure by 6 degrees! [20:18] <@BradGM> ((it works)) [20:18] <+Elana> ((lol)) [20:18] * +Mira_Atella stands there, holding the rifle on the car in the ditch. "Do we want to risk giving them an advantage by going over there, or just wait?" [20:19] * +Elana remains in cover - for now. 1"How good are you at this range?" [20:19] * +Mira_Atella looks at Elana, as the others don't look like they'll be moving soon. [20:20] <+Mira_Atella> "I'm still shaken up from the crash, so I wouldn't hold my breath about getting another shot like the last one." [20:20] * +Grendel checks over his wounds, examining the bandages to see if he tore anything open again. "We will need to hurry." [20:20] <+Elana> "Cover me, then." 6Not hesitating for long, the Sister moves to advance on the other vehicle, gun at the ready. [20:21] * +Mira_Atella nods and readies the rifle, keeping her eye on the car. [20:21] <@BradGM> **You're in some plowed field, running and moving is rather difficult; roll agility** [20:21] * +Grendel leans over the car, holding his pistol steady. [20:24] <+Elana> ((still with the penalty, right?)) [20:24] * +Lazerus_Grim returns to their damaged car and pulls out the xenos device, ensuring its safety.

"Careful, someone is alive over there." [20:27] <+Lazerus_Grim> !dhroll 31 [20:27] <+Servitor> Lazerus_Grim: 60 Failure by 2 degrees! [20:28] <@BradGM> **THe device seems to be in one pieces and undamaged.** [20:28] <@BradGM> ((one piece)) [20:29] * +Grendel stands up, and starts moving with Elana.

[20:32] <+Mira_Atella> "Wooded area by the car, better move faster." [20:33] <@BradGM> ((not shooting?)) [20:33] <+Mira_Atella> (( thought they had moved too fast, but sure if I can )) [20:33] <@BradGM> ((Grendle and Laz: you're about at 20 meters from the other car)) [20:33] * +Mira_Atella focuses on the target, taking a shot at the person. [20:33] * +Elana gives a handsign to the side as if trying to communicate some kind of tactic, seemingly unaware that the other acolytes may have no experience with this kind of gesture. [20:34] <@BradGM> ((you get +10 for range, -20 'cause he's running, +20 if you spend half action aiming before)) [20:34] <@BradGM> ((who else got war cant?))

[20:57] <@BradGM> ((Lazerus can do something before you reach the car Grendel)) [20:57] * Mira_Atella (~Athenis@pool-71-110-226-114.lsanca.dsl-w.verizon.net) has joined #Shadowrun [20:57] * Gloomster (~Gloomster@24.160.33.5) has joined #Shadowrun [20:57] * BradGM sets mode: +v Mira_Atella [20:58] * +Lazerus_Grim opens the back seat and pulls the dead bodies out, placing the case on a cushion.

[20:59] <@BradGM> **Lazerus, the only dead body in the car is that of the driver, whichc falls out when you oepn his door.** [20:59] <+Mira_Atella> (( well can't really do much about that, it's a modem/router combo thing heh )) [21:00] * +Mira_Atella lowers the rifle and leans down, looking in to the car to see how Parlow is doing. [21:00] <@BradGM> **Grendle you reach the car as lazerus takes care of the dead body in the way.** [21:01] * +Grendel examines the car, checking to see if its still viable. [21:01] <@BradGM> **PArlow appears to be more or less concient, but despite his wounds he seems to be alive, if only weakly.** [21:01] <@BradGM> **Grendle, roll common lore (tech)+10** [21:02] * +Mira_Atella frowns, "Parlow, are you able to move? We need to get you out of here." [21:02] <@BradGM> Parlow "Mhmm...*mumbles*.." [21:03] * +Mira_Atella climbs in to reach him, grabbing hold of him, "This is probably going to hurt." Tries to pull him out of the vehicle. [21:03] * +Elana proceeds to the recently shot enemy, first checking if he is still alive. [21:03] <+Grendel> !dhroll 73 [21:03] <+Servitor> Grendel: 57 Success by 1 degree! [21:03] <+Mira_Atella> (( stupid netsplit, I wanted to gloat about that shot too lol )) [21:04] <@BradGM> **Elana, the man took a rifle round and 2 heavy auto-pistol slugs; his vitals signs also confirm his recent death by your hand.** [21:04] <+Elana> ((hahah)) [21:04] <@BradGM> **Grendel, you check the sacred machine aprts of the car and all seems to be in working orde,r if only with slight gunfire damage.** [21:04] * +Elana proceeds to search for any clues regarding the man's persona - identicard, badges, dogtags, ... [21:05] <+Mira_Atella> (( nevermind the bullet hole in the windshield heh )) [21:05] <@BradGM> **Parlow seems to wakes up as you move him "Ahh..What happened..Ow..who's making construction on my skull?" [21:05] <+Elana> (( we can duct-tape that :P )) [21:05] <@BradGM> **roll search Elana** [21:06] <+Elana> !dhroll 24 [21:06] <+Servitor> Elana: 15 Success by 0 degrees!

[21:06] <@BradGM> ((**you find nothing**)) [21:06] <+Elana> ((>.<)) [21:06] * +Mira_Atella moves around so she can look at him, "I think you need to work on your driving skills, buddy. Can you stand up?" [21:06] * +Grendel looks over the car, communing with the machine spirit. "This should be viable for getting us to the spaceport." [21:06] <@BradGM> **You find an identity card on him, a certain Jok Pagoty** [21:07] <@BradGM> **Parlow, I dunno, I'm not dead, so I should be able to.* [21:07] <+Elana> ((but no clues regarding who he is working for right? got it)) [21:07] <@BradGM> **Grendel, roll drive, (ground vehicle) -10 to get the car out of the ditch.** [21:07] <+Mira_Atella> "When you guys get the car moving, swing over here. Parlow is alive, but walking all the way over there might not be an option." [21:08] <@BradGM> ((no Elana, if he's under contract, it's not official)))) [21:08] <+Grendel> !dhroll 2 [21:08] <+Servitor> Grendel: 45 Failure by 4 degrees!

[21:09] * +Elana returns to her companions at the commandeered enemy vehicle, waving the dead man's ID: 1"No marks of affiliation. They could belong to one of the local gangs." [21:09] <@BradGM> ((yeah, MUCH better)) [21:09] <@BradGM> **Grendel, the engine gets drowned and the engie stops.** [21:09] <+Elana> ((fire! fire! fire!)) [21:09] <+Elana> ((:P)) [21:09] * +Grendel frowns and attempts to communicate with the machine spirit in order to appease it. [21:09] <+Grendel> ((The Sister can walk to the spaceport)) [21:09] <@BradGM> ((the others can help push, at a +10 for each, max 2 guys hleping)) [21:10] <+Elana> ((*glares* ;)) [21:11] <@BradGM> **Grendle, roll tech-use+10** [21:11] <+Mira_Atella> (( hehe.. but someone has to carry her big chest )) [21:11] <+Elana> ((*slap* :P)) [21:11] <+Mira_Atella> ) [21:12] <+Grendel> !dhroll 73 [21:12] <+Servitor> Grendel: 45 Success by 2 degrees! [21:12] * +Elana reaches the vehicle, giving the Tech-Priest's doing a mildly curious look. 1"Is the transport salvagable?" [21:13] <@BradGM> **You managed to get the engine alive agina, thanks to liberal use of the ancient 'choke' lever** [21:14] <@BradGM> **roll drive(ground) -10 to get out; check if some help you** [21:14] * +Grendel mutters the correct rituals to use the choke and the pedals. [21:14] <@BradGM> ((All the while, Lazerus, is with his cussionned case in the back seat.)) [21:14] <+Elana> ((don't choke the machine spirit!)) [21:15] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((i'm too old to be driving. besides, they erased my advanced driving technique training)) [21:15] <@BradGM> ((hahaha)) [21:15] * +Grendel looks in the mirrors and checks to see if anyone is helping push the car out. [21:16] <@BradGM> **The mirror reflex noone!** [21:16] * +Lazerus_Grim reads the Tech-Priest's mind (though not a telepath) and he hops out, helping to push. [21:17] * +Grendel gives the car a little bit of gas, attempting to free it from the devilish trap that is a ditch. [21:17] <+Grendel> !dhroll 21 [21:17] <+Servitor> Grendel: 54 Failure by 3 degrees! [21:17] <+Grendel> ((sigh)) [21:17] <@BradGM> ((you had +10 for Lazerus helping you so 31..ro rer-ool this one)) [21:17] * +Elana gives Laz a puzzled look. 1"What are you doing? Will the vehicle not move by itself?" [21:18] <+Grendel> ((nah. Last time I forgot the fatigue..21 is correct)) [21:18] <@BradGM> **The tires spin but you can't get it up the light, weak angled slope.** [21:19] * +Lazerus_Grim grunts as he strains against the car. 1"Sometimes these tech-ie things required faith, Sister, but even you will wear armour into battle." [21:19] * +Grendel sticks his head out the window. "The machine spirit requires encouragement to return to the road." [21:20] <@BradGM> ((yes I can picture the scne, a TP sticking his ehad out of a car yelling at others to push him out of a ditch..oh priceless)) [21:20] <+Mira_Atella> (( lol the sister is completely clueless )) [21:20] <+Elana> ((rofl)) [21:20] <@BradGM> (("The Omnissiah demands that you use your legs instead of your arms!")) [21:21] <@BradGM> **Indeed elana, Grendel seems to ahve difficulty in getting the car out fo the ditch** [21:22] * +Elana furrows her brows at the Tech-Priest's explanation, but decides to follow the suggestion nonetheless and add her own strength to Lazarus'. [21:22] <@BradGM> **Meanwhile, Mira is Dragging Parlow toward the toehrs. The dick is able to walk with a limp and some assistance from mira.** [21:22] <+Mira_Atella> (( lol )) [21:22] <@BradGM> **Roll again Grendel,: you got 2 helpers, so +20 from the drive (Ground)-10 test** [21:22] <+Elana> ((oO)) [21:23] <@BradGM> ((that came out wrong?))

[21:24] <@BradGM> ((well, he is a private investigator)) [21:25] <+Mira_Atella> (( hahaha, yeah.. definitely came out wrong )) [21:25] <@BradGM> **Grendel, it doens't wrok at all: can do it another time before mira and parlow arrives** [21:25] * +Grendel attempts to coax the car out of the ditch, applying the proper ratio of gas. [21:26] <@BradGM> ((same mods)) [21:26] <+Grendel> !dhroll 31 [21:26] <+Servitor> Grendel: 64 Failure by 3 degrees! [21:26] <+Grendel> ((oh, come on!)) [21:27] <@BradGM> **Grendel seems to have dug a trench in which he cannot get out.** [21:27] <@BradGM> **Mira and Parlow arrives.** [21:27] <@BradGM> **Parlow "Need a hand Tech-Priest?" [21:27] <+Mira_Atella> "Problems?" [21:28] * +Mira_Atella glances at the car, the two pushing, and Grendel looking frustrated. [21:28] <+Grendel> "The machine spirit is unwilling to return to the road without help." [21:28] * +Elana grunts. 1"I hope ... spirit will ... resume his work before ... we reach the spaceport ..." [21:29] * +Mira_Atella makes sure Parlow can stand on his own before she joins the others to push at the back of the vehicle. [21:29] <@BradGM> **He is able to maintain his balance.** [21:29] <@BradGM> ((well I did say 2 max, but ok; +30 to the test Grendel)) [21:30] <+Grendel> !perc 51 [21:30] <+Grendel> !dhroll 51 [21:30] <+Servitor> Grendel: 43 Success by 0 degrees!

Can you improvise anything?" [21:35] <+Lazerus_Grim> !dhroll 29 [21:35] <+Servitor> Lazerus_Grim: 26 Success by 0 degrees!
