[20:10] <@BradGM> +++0857 Hours Hive Sibellus time+++
[20:10] <@BradGM> +++After giving tribute to Watch Commander Boreale of the Deathwatch, Mockingbird recieved a large warhammer which they brought back to Inquisitor Jex, who quickly dismissed them. Mira and Grendel went to Bradon to returned their equipment and get news about a cut in Grendel’s pay since he did not bring the flak helmet from his armour.
[20:10] <@BradGM> The rest of the cell returned to their quarters for a little respite. 3 days later they were demanded by Jex, who informed them of their incompletion of the task given. The Inquisitor left them a data-slate, informing them they were given a last chance to prove their worth.+++

[20:11] * +Mira_Atella sighs as Jex leaves, "Well that was fun."
[20:11] <@BradGM> Captain Rothers is in the Briefing room with you
[20:12] * +Elana almost seems to sulk. Then again, the Sister rarely sheds her serious facial expression.
[20:14] * +Grendel reads through the slate, before passing it around. "Perhaps we should all be sure to read it to ensure there are no..mistakes?"
[20:15] * +Mira_Atella takes the slate and reads over the information as well, transfering some details to her own slate before handing it to someone else.
[20:16] * +Elana 's eyes fall on the slate. Despite following its course, she patiently waits until it is handed to her.
[20:18] <+Grendel> "Captain Rother, are you able to provide information on where the beacon is held?"
[20:18] <@BradGM> Rothers "Please define question parameters."
[20:19] <+Grendel> "The location on the planet where the beacon is held."
[20:19] * +Mira_Atella looks at the information again, "It seems to be finding is part of our job."
[20:19] <+Mira_Atella> (( finding it* ))
[20:19] <@BradGM> Rothers "Cannot underatnd question."
[20:19] <@BradGM> ((rothers might not know about the info))
[20:20] * Daiya (Daiya@rrcs-71-41-160-142.sw.biz.rr.com) has joined #Shadowrun
[20:21] <+Elana> "It says that this Governor seems to ... collect such tainted artefacts. I would presume that it would be located in or near the governor's palace. Finding that building should be easy once we arrive."
[20:23] <+Mira_Atella> (( server splitting again or just quiet? heh ))
[20:23] <@BradGM> ((quiet it seems))
[20:24] <+Grendel> "Perhaps. The keeping of xenostech is quite risky. He may wish to hide it."
[20:25] * +Elana nods, for once in agreement with the martian priest. 1"It is quite possible that only very few people know of its exact location. We will have to approach one of them - without identifying ourselves as who we truly are, it seems."
[20:27] <+Grendel> "Captain Rothers, what are the transportation options to reach the planet Modra?"
[20:29] <+Mira_Atella> "I know that splitting up is not a preference, but if we're supposed to remain incognito, we might have to. We stick out a bit as a whole."
[20:29] <@BradGM> Rothers "Off-world transport shall be organized by Inquisitor Jex when Cell Mockingbird will be ready to leave Scintilla"
[20:31] * +Grendel nods, considering the options. "Perhaps once we arrive I can ask to see the beacon."
[20:31] * +Elana arches an eyebrow at the suggestion. 1"Is it not too early for such plans? We should make planetfall and erect a base of operations first, then see what we are dealing with before deciding anything."
[20:31] <+Mira_Atella> "I wasn't suggesting it as a plan, just something to keep in mind."
[20:34] * +Grendel shrugs. "Perhaps. In that case we should decide what we are taking with us?"
[20:36] <+Elana> "Everything. If we can acquire unsuspicious transportation, there is no need to leave any useful gear behind. We should, however, keep it stored and out of sight until absolutely needed."
[20:37] * +Grendel glances at Elana's armor.
[20:37] * +Mira_Atella nods.
[20:38] * +Elana pauses, then adds: 1"I suppose we also require civilian garments. Some of us may need to disguise certain features of their appearance." 6A finger tucks up a loose strand of hair dangling down in front of her face, though the gesture seems to be intended as a hint towards the tattoo marking her cheek.
[20:38] <+Elana> ((no armour, just robes today))
[20:40] <+Mira_Atella> "Rothers, is the transportation secure enough that we won't be stopped, so that we can take our gear?" She gives the skull an uneasy glance.
[20:40] <+Grendel> "Is is easier to disguise some of us."
[20:40] <@BradGM> Rothers "Off-world transportation information not available at this time"
[20:42] * +Mira_Atella grumbles under her breath. "How can they expect us to do anything if we can't even plan the most simple of travel arrangements?"
[20:43] * +Elana eyes the servo-skull. 1"I am sure this facility offers ways to acquire this information."
[20:44] <@BradGM> ((asking Jex could work))
[20:44] * +Grendel considers. "We should acquire any items we need from Bradon, and then see. I am sure there is nothing that we will be unable to get through."
[20:45] <+Mira_Atella> "And how do we pick items to take with us, when we know nothing? Take the wrong things and we'll get taken on the spot."
[20:45] <+Elana> ((he'd just say we can't do anything on our own! :P))
[20:46] <+Mira_Atella> (( heh, who wants to go after the angry yelling man after he stormed out? Not everyone at once now.. ))
[20:46] <@BradGM> ((send Rothers, he,s already dead))
[20:46] <+Elana> ((XD))
[20:47] * +Grendel turns to Captain Rothers, ordering him to go see if Inquisitor Jex has a way to get us and our gear to Modra safely, as well as a base of operations once htere.
[20:48] <@BradGM> Rothers floats there for a moment "Vox-link established"
[20:48] <@BradGM> Jex "Yes Mockingbird?"
[20:48] <+Elana> "We are likely to be identified as off-worlders regardless of how we clothe. However, there is nothing bad about being seen as visitors, as long as out true purpose remains hidden."
[20:49] <+Elana> ((our))
[20:49] * +Elana pauses, turning her head to Grendel, intent on letting the Tech-Priest handle the conversation.
[20:49] <+Grendel> "Inquisitor, will we have transportation and accomodations for our gear on the transport to Modra, and once we arrive?"
[20:51] <@BradGM> Jex "Of course you will! I would not like you to miserably failThe rest of the cell returned to their quarters for a little respite. 3 days later they were demanded by Jex, who informed them of their incompletion of the task given.

[20:51] <@BradGM> ((oops))
[20:51] <@BradGM> Jex "Of course you will! I would not like you to miserably fail again."
[20:51] <@BradGM> ((there, better))
[20:51] * +Mira_Atella rolls her eyes a bit.
[20:52] * +Elana clenches her fists, but does not speak up.
[20:53] <@BradGM> Jex "The Captain That will so gladly transport you is a trusted character WE have used in the past; he runs a tight ship, so I am expecting proper conduct."
[20:54] <+Grendel> "Of course. Will we have transport to the planet and back whenever?"
[20:54] <@BradGM> Jex "That is behond my powers, but I am certain the Captain shall be able to arrange such trivalities."
[20:55] <+Grendel> "Very well Inquisitor."
[20:57] <+Elana> "When and where will we board?"6, she adds after a moment of hesitation.
[20:58] <@BradGM> Jex "Another thing. I will require Alaric's knowledge of the aRbites for a moment, but I would not want you to be undermanned; I shall send a replacement; Wait here a moment for Captain Rothers to return."
[20:58] * +Grendel frowns. "Very well."
[20:58] * +Elana exchanges glances with the Acolytes as the replacement is announced.
[20:59] * +Grendel turns to the rest. "It seems we will be able to keep our gear on the ship in orbit if need be, or perhaps on whatever lander he provides."
[20:59] <@BradGM> Jex "You shall board when ready, but time is a factor in this; the data-slate is 3 standard weeks old."
[21:01] <@BradGM> Jex "Anything else Mockingbird?"
[21:03] <+Grendel> "That will be all Inquisitor."
[21:03] <@BradGM> Jex "I know. Alaric, follow Captain Rothers to the Teleportarium this instant!"
[21:05] * +Elana rises. 1"It seems that this Captain can be trusted. A lander would indeed be the most ideal place to store any gear that may betray our true identities. It will be protected from the eyes of the local folk and security forces whilst at the same time being ready to be called upon, together with the vehicle itself."
[21:05] <@BradGM> Alaric rises up more or less rejoiced at the prospect of being left alone with the Inquistor. He gives you a look, almost like a good bye and leave with the Good Captian.
[21:05] * +Mira_Atella speaks almost inaudibly "Anyone getting assigned to us at this juncture must have messed something up even more than our little issue, or they're being sent to babysit." She sighs.
[21:06] <+Grendel> "Perhaps."
[21:07] * +Elana lets the Arbitrator part, though not without a short nod and a blessing.
[21:09] <+Grendel> "Perhaps the Inquisitor needs another Captain Rother."
[21:10] <@BradGM> ((pfff))
[21:10] <@BradGM> ((he'll make a hat with Alaric's skin))
[21:11] * Daiya (Daiya@rrcs-71-41-160-142.sw.biz.rr.com) has left #Shadowrun
[21:11] * Felucia (Daiya@rrcs-71-41-160-142.sw.biz.rr.com) has joined #Shadowrun
[21:11] <@BradGM> ((then with a clever system or ropes pulleys and tech, you'll have a servo-skull puppetteering a human-sized doll))
[21:11] <@BradGM> ((or=of))
[21:12] <+Grendel> "We will need a Vox-caster."
[21:12] * BradGM sets mode: +v Felucia
[21:12] <+Elana> ((>_>))
[21:12] <@BradGM> 10 minutes later, Captain Rothers return with the replacement
[21:12] <+Elana> "Do you not think a vox-caster would be somewhat ... suspicious?"
[21:14] <+Grendel> "If the lander is compromised, it will be the only way to communicate, and if we must separate."
[21:15] <+Elana> "Perhaps we can use local vox-transmission. Two groups with vox-casters the manner of those used by His Imperial Guard would surely attract attention."
[21:17] * +Grendel looks at the newcomer from beneath the cowl of his robe.
[21:21] <@BradGM> ((?))
[21:22] <+Grendel> ((Well, I assume the newcomer is going to atleast describe themselves : )) )
[21:22] <+Mira_Atella> (( I was waiting for some kind of intro.. or something ))
[21:23] <+Elana> ((same here ;))
[21:23] <+Mira_Atella> (( Not sure if Grim is alive lol ))
[21:24] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((i'm here, just love listening to you guys talk strategy))
[21:24] <+Grendel> "If its not necessary we can leave it on the lander, yes?"
[21:25] <@BradGM> ((won't be long))
[21:26] * +Felucia looks around the room, she was a rather oddly clothed girl with what right now looks more like dark brown hair that falls down to her back but is oddly clumped togehter, her clothes are presentable but look rather old and worn, her face is pretty definately not somone youd just pass over though the rest of her makes her look closer to a homeless vagabond then somone sa respectable
[21:26] * +Felucia as the lot she seems to be before, the only decent looking clothing is her green trenchcoat that kind of covers up most of her figure so the rest cant be truly seen.
[21:27] * +Mira_Atella raises a brow as the girl steps in.
[21:28] <+Felucia> brb
[21:28] <@BradGM> ((huh..))
[21:28] <@BradGM> ((heh))
[21:29] <+Elana> "If it will become necessary, I should think we stand together ..."6, the robed Sister adds before her eyes wander to the new inductee, studying what appears to be the cell's newest member.
[21:29] <+Elana> ((another victim of the hive holok scheme, I see :P))
[21:30] * +Grendel looks over the newcomer, before turning back to the Sister. "it is reasonable to take the precaution."
[21:30] * +Lazerus_Grim steps up to the shabby one and introduces himself.
[21:31] <+Lazerus_Grim> "I am Lazerus Grim, eldest of this team and pleased to meet you, Lady....?"
[21:31] <@BradGM> ((adding some mind powa on this intro for laughs Lazerus?))
[21:32] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((yeah, i did just get Trusting Aura))
[21:32] <+Lazerus_Grim> 1d10+5
[21:32] <+DiceServitor> Lazerus_Grim rolls 1D10+5: 8 +5 = 13
[21:33] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((manifested but no overbleed, so just +10))
[21:35] <@BradGM> ((still, you still look more charming and friendly))
[21:35] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((like i needed the help....))
[21:35] * +Grendel continues speaking to the Sister. "It does not cost anything to do so."
[21:36] <+Mira_Atella> (( Yeah really.. the techie is just scary looking, Elana always looks constipated, and Mira looks like she wants to rip everyone's arms off and beat them to death with them lol :D ))
[21:36] <@BradGM> ((You're the Obiwan to R2, Lea and Chewie))
[21:36] <+Elana> ((:D))
[21:37] <@BradGM> (("Those are not the acolytes you're looking for, cultist."))
[21:37] <+Felucia> (nice visuals)
[21:39] * +Elana does not seem to be convinced yet. 1"If you wish - though I do not think it would be wise to venture beyond the distance of our micro-beads, lest we cannot help each other in times of need."
[21:39] <+Grendel> "Plans often go awry, yes?"
[21:42] * +Mira_Atella ponders for a moment, "Often? Try always."
[21:42] * +Felucia watches them bicker just feeling her trust in the group grow and grow
[21:43] <+Felucia> "Im felucia nice to meet you all, it is nice to hear such positive things about your rate of sucess
[21:43] <+Grendel> "Better to have it and nod need it, then need it and not have the blessing of the Omnissiah, yes?"
[21:43] * +Mira_Atella glances at the new girl.
[21:44] * +Lazerus_Grim whispers aside to her.
[21:45] <+Lazerus_Grim> "They're kind of engrossed in the planning right now, better save the introductions for when they're not too busy for you. Enough of them, though, how did you get here? I mean, with us?"
[21:46] <+Felucia> "I was recruited, mainly I guess for my odd way of using my skills, though how I got here I still dont fully understand."
[21:47] * +Lazerus_Grim nods, the story all too familiar.
[21:47] * +Elana eyes Mira for a moment. 1"Thy reep what thy seed"6, she intones before her attention returns to Felucia. 1"Do not pay too much heed to these words. Though we may not be the best messengers this side of Holy Terra, so far we succeeded on other, more vital tasks given to us."
[21:47] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Well, you'll fit in just nicely here, we're all a little bit of a misfit in some way."
[21:48] * +Elana gives Lazerus a somewhat displeased look at the notion.
[21:48] * +Lazerus_Grim proceeds to describe each of the other members of the team, mostly giving positive feedback but also making a point to include a funny story so that the newcomer doesn't feel intimidated.
[21:48] <+Grendel> "What does the newcomer do exactly?"
[21:48] <+Felucia> "looks like not everyone agrees with that label"
[21:49] <+Felucia> "well so far I talk"
[21:49] * +Mira_Atella narrows her eyes at Grim. "What do you think you're doing?"
[21:49] <@BradGM> ((he's whispering while you're tlaking))
[21:49] <@BradGM> ((Or at least he's muffed by Grendel and Elana talking about vox-casters))
[21:50] <+Mira_Atella> (( Mira turned towards the two of them, I can do a roll if I need to, to hear it heh ))
[21:50] <@BradGM> (('least that's what I understood))
[21:50] <+Elana> ((I'd be delighted to hear the funny stories though :P))
[21:50] <@BradGM> ((depends if lazerus is still whispering or not))
[21:51] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((it might not be whispering but it is hushed so as not to draw attention from the group and interrupt their conversation))
[21:51] <@BradGM> ((ha ok))
[21:52] <+Mira_Atella> !perc 44
[21:52] <+DiceServitor> Mira_Atella rolls [ 44% (or Lower) : 12 34%, Success ]

[21:52] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((darn you, Assassin))
[21:52] <+Grendel> "And we will need armor as well."
[21:53] <@BradGM> Mira you are able to ehar lazerus talking about the others in a granpa is reconforting with stories kinda way.
[21:53] <@BradGM> ((since I suppose you're mainitaining your power Laz?))
[21:54] <+Elana> ((nice description ;))
[21:54] <+Lazerus_Grim> 1d10+5
[21:54] <+DiceServitor> Lazerus_Grim rolls 1D10+5: 2 +5 = 7
[21:54] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((yep))
[21:54] * +Mira_Atella asks the question, but doesn't much wait for an answer, "Do you share our personal information with everyone you've met less than five minutes ago?"
[21:55] <@BradGM> ((so you got your heartwarming granpa aura floating))
[21:55] * +Lazerus_Grim gives Mira an innocent look.
[21:56] <+Lazerus_Grim> "I meant no harm, only trying to introduce the new girl and give her some perspective on how we do things and such. And also trying to comfort her as I'm sure she's a bit intimidated and maybe scared at the situation she finds herself in."
[21:56] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((trying to soothe Mira's raging emotions, should i roll Charm for that?))
[21:57] * +Elana studies Felucia once more. 1"Hmm. The Emperor sometimes works in mysterious ways. Rest assured that you do have a purpose here."
[21:57] * +Mira_Atella stands from the chair and walks towards the door, "If she's here with us, I think she can handle it. Jex didn't pick us for our naivety and innocence."
[21:58] * +Lazerus_Grim mutters aside to himself.
[21:58] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Well he certainly didn't choose you for your tact...."

[21:59] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((Felucia would have heard it though))
[22:00] <@BradGM> Mira, lazerus clears his troat
[22:01] <+Mira_Atella> "We should go to the armory and get going. Longer we wait the less viable anything we were given will remain relevant. He said it is 3 weeks old as it is." She taps the dataslate in her hands.
[22:02] * +Mira_Atella gives a pointed look at Grim and leaves the room, heading to the armory.
[22:02] * +Grendel nods, getting to his feet. "The newcomer has yet to say what she is good at?"
[22:02] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((i'll be right back, have to shut down my computer for a moment))
[22:02] * +Lazerus_Grim (~knight.ri@173-165-239-237-minnesota.hfc.comcastbusiness.net) Quit (Quit)
[22:07] <@BradGM> ((ok))
[22:07] * +Grendel shrugs at the lack of response and heads to Bradon to get kitted out for the mission.
[22:07] <@BradGM> Mira you arrive at Munitorium D
[22:08] * Lazerus_Grim (~knight.ri@173-165-239-237-minnesota.hfc.comcastbusiness.net) has joined #Shadowrun
[22:09] * BradGM sets mode: +v Lazerus_Grim
[22:09] * +Elana goes to accompany the Tech-Priest, once more nodding towards Felucia as an incentive that she should join them as well.
[22:09] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((sorry about it))
[22:09] * +Mira_Atella requests the same items she asked for on the previous mission, and also some baggy clothing to wear over it all and a long jacket to conceal the swords. "There's a new addition, Bradon.. be careful Grim doesn't tell her your life story."
[22:10] <+Elana> ((no prob, wb!))
[22:10] <@BradGM> ((np Grim; Mira and Grendel left for Braond, leaving you Elana and Felucia))
[22:10] <@BradGM> Bradon "Oh really? How so?"
[22:10] <+Elana> ((I'm actually going with the TP - I take it we're all going?))
[22:10] * +Lazerus_Grim stays with the new girl, intending on showing her the way to the armoury.
[22:12] <@BradGM> ((Yeah just that Mira arrives with a head's start))
[22:13] <@BradGM> ((enough for that lil, exchange before you all arrive))
[22:14] * +Mira_Atella shrugs a bit. "Considering none of us really know why we're here, him telling her after a few minutes about us just doesn't feel right."
[22:15] <@BradGM> Bradon "Bah, you know with what his type works; I suppose there's a reason for that."
[22:15] * +Felucia follows lazerus. "so have you ever been to Tarsis Ultra?"
[22:15] * +Grendel places an order with Bradon, filling out a form for Imperial Guard Flak armor, an auspex, a glow globe, Magnoculars, a multi-key, pict recorder and a vox-caster.
[22:16] <+Mira_Atella> "We'll see." She slips the requisitioned items on over her suit and adjusts the weapons properly, holding the rest in her hands.
[22:17] * +Lazerus_Grim thinks for a moment and then shrugs. "If I have a don't remember, for I am old and my memory is not what it once was. I tell you, cherish your youth, little one."
[22:20] * +Elana arrives together with Grendel, pausing for a moment as she re-thinks the upcoming task before requesting a maglocked chest large enough to hold all her possessions including the armour as well as a set of civilian garb. Further she inquires about some sort of skin-toned creme with which to cover up the ecclesiarchal tattoo on her cheek.
[22:20] <@BradGM> Lazerus, Elana and Felucia arrives at Munitorium D
[22:21] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Bradon, my old friend, we have a new member in the group. Felucia is her name, and so far just talking is her game, but I'm sure she has other talents, perhaps even some she'll need gear for,"
[22:22] <@BradGM> Bradon "Right Lazerus, i suppose you already told her about how things work here?"
[22:22] * +Grendel bundles up his gear to put on someplace else.
[22:22] * +Lazerus_Grim aside to Felucia, "Name the gear you want, within reason, and he'll loan it to you. Return it in good condition, and you'll keep on his good side. I'll fill out these first couple requisition forms for you, so you get used to the process."
[22:23] * +Lazerus_Grim ((that should say)) "....so you can see the process in action and don't get bogged down with the paperwork."
[22:24] <@BradGM> Bradon gets your things and seems a bit surprised at Elana's request.
[22:24] <@BradGM> ((and not just because she used the word "creme"))
[22:25] * +Elana retains her serious facial expression, raising a brow at the squat's reaction.
[22:25] <@BradGM> Bradon "Ooh, must be going somewhere really discreet for you to do ask for that..."
[22:26] <+Elana> "Perhaps"6, she half-admits, not feeling entirely sure about how much the quartermaster is supposed to know regarding the various cells' operations. 1"Let us just say that we may have to conceal our most obvious identities."
[22:27] <@BradGM> Bradon "Then maybe a haircut or a dye-job then?"
[22:27] <@BradGM> Bradon "Not every women in the Imperium got the bowl cut sister."
[22:28] * +Elana seems somewhat reluctant at this suggestion. 1"Maybe if I would just ... wear it in a different way? I would prefer this .. disguise to be as temporary as possible."
[22:28] * +Felucia watches how the group handles themselves just keeping silent and taking in as much information as she can.
[22:28] * +Grendel steps back with his gear, wondering how this is going to play out, all due to his study of the Imperial Creed of course.
[22:29] * +Mira_Atella looks around for Rothers.
[22:30] <@BradGM> Rothers was tailing behind with Lazerus and Felucia
[22:30] <@BradGM> Bradon "dying's not too hard; Mira do it all the time."
[22:30] * +Mira_Atella looks to the skull, "Did Jex tell you where the captain is that is helping us, or what his name is?"
[22:30] <@BradGM> ((dying hair mind you))
[22:30] <@BradGM> Rothers "Negative."
[22:31] * +Elana eyes the assassin, giving a slight nod. 1"Truly spoken. And I suppose it would come out easy enough with enough water, no?"
[22:32] <@BradGM> Bradon "Of course it does, nobles do it all the time I'm telling you. Nothing to be afraid of."
[22:32] * +Mira_Atella looks back, hearing the tail end of the dye conversation, "Yeah, it's easy enough depending on how long you need it to stay."
[22:33] * +Mira_Atella walks close to Elana and whispers, "Does it seem like we're purposely not being given information? Nothing about this new person, no name or location for a captain we're supposed to meet, no details at all."
[22:34] <+Elana> "Very well"6, the Sister concedes. 1"My thanks for the suggestion. Given our mission, this should be in accordance to the rules of my Order."
[22:35] <@BradGM> Bradon "since you're requestin' civilian clothing, if i knew where you were going I might get you something that actually fits."
[22:35] * +Elana lends the assassin her ear, followed by a short glance towards Felucia. 1"Are you implying that she may be part of whatever test our Inquisitor may have in mind for us?" 6A whispered reply, not louder than Mira's initial remark.
[22:36] * +Grendel adjusts his requisition to include a mono-axe, 2 doses of Frenzon, 2 of Slaught, and 2 of Stimm.
[22:36] <+Elana> "The Hazeroth Abyss"6, she answers the Quartermaster. 1"What was this world ... Modra?"
[22:37] * +Mira_Atella shrugs, "I don't know, just the lack of information makes it seem like he wants us to fail."
[22:37] <+Felucia> "so..... does anyone want to tell me what we are doing?"
[22:38] * +Mira_Atella retrieves her dataslate and hands it to the girl to read. (( don't have link on hand if someone else does ))
[22:39] <@BradGM> Bradon works his cognitor engine for a moment "Ah,..that's something.."
[22:39] <@BradGM> He switches the screen to show you
[22:39] <@BradGM> ((long story short; you know of the roaring 20s? like that))
[22:40] <+Grendel> ((Elana the flapper girl? lol)
[22:40] <+Mira_Atella> (( .... ))
[22:40] <+Elana> ((I will not take one of those silly hats :P))
[22:40] <+Mira_Atella> (( Well at least Mira is used to wearing skimpy revealing things heh ))
[22:40] <+Grendel> "There is no much point in trying to hide my affiliation."
[22:40] <+Mira_Atella> (( have to adjust to not have anything baggy though, so hard to carry weapons ))
[22:41] * +Elana arches her brows at the example, though she does not seem to be -too- shocked. It is not inconceivable that, to the Sister, any kind of civilian clothing would seem foreign.
[22:42] <@BradGM> ((worse case you cna always got the pant wearing adventuress))
[22:43] <+Elana> ((hah, true!))
[22:43] <+Elana> ((with stub revolver ...))
[22:44] * +Mira_Atella sees the example on the screen and slides the baggy items she got back to Bradon, but keeps the long coat as it still seems appropriate enough. "I'll let you decide what would be best to conceal the two guns and the swords" She gives a grin to him.
[22:44] <@BradGM> Bradon "That green trenchcoat's good"
[22:45] * +Mira_Atella nods, "Yeah, I figured that was still passable. But those baggy things, not as much."
[22:45] <+Felucia> (so ummmm lol what link on the dark heresy page is for hte data slate?)
[22:45] <@BradGM> ((what baggy things Mira?))
[22:45] <@BradGM> http://dark-heresy.wikispaces.com/Slate
[22:46] <+Elana> "If this will serve to keep my disguise - I would prefer shoes without heels, though. Better yet, firm boots. And something that would not obstruct my movement too much ..."6, she continues to voice her wishes as her indoctrinated militant mind already reverts back to what sounds like battle preparations instead of viable infiltration.
[22:46] <+Mira_Atella> (( heh guess you didn't see it earlier, she asked for everything from the last mission, plus baggy clothing to cover the weapons. Then you had him sliding stuff over so figured you saw it ))
[22:47] <+Mira_Atella> (( but now only the weapons are viable lol even the bodyglove would be really obvious ))
[22:47] <@BradGM> ((ah ok; yeah got confused with something else))
[22:47] <+Felucia> "Ummmm do I have indigo clearance?"
[22:48] <+Mira_Atella> "If you didn't, you do for now at least."
[22:48] <+Felucia> "okay" goes back to reading.
[22:49] * +Lazerus_Grim steps up and requests a similar set of clothes, filling out the paperwork.
[22:50] <@BradGM> Bradon "I suppose you would like some local weapons?"
[22:50] <+Mira_Atella> "So it looks like we aren't going to get away with much in the way of armor or larger weapons. Nothing that can't be concealed under a coat, and we can't all have coats if we're going to stay in a group." She ponders a bit.
[22:50] * +Mira_Atella nods to Bradon.
[22:51] <+Elana> ((weren't coats really fashionable in the 20s? :D))
[22:51] <+Felucia> "well it seems like we need to find a way into this guys place and find out as much info on why the eldar are attacking here? I think I can help out"
[22:52] <@BradGM> (trenchcoats and all that))
[22:52] <+Felucia> (yeah in the year 40020 they were popular)
[22:53] * +Lazerus_Grim claps Felucia on the shoulder. "What other reason would Jex have put you with us? I'm sure you've got some mighty great skills beneath that unassuming aura."
[22:53] * +Mira_Atella takes the dataslate back from Felucia and puts it away in her coat.
[22:53] * +Felucia looks him up and down. "Ill keep my aura to myself but thankyou for the rest."
[22:55] <+Felucia> "but you all must realise to really get decent info we cant just march aroudn like a army of god"
[22:55] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Simply meant persona, little one, nothing nefarious."
[22:55] <+Elana> "Regrettably"6, the Sister adds.
[22:55] <@BradGM> Bradon brings a stub pistol of sturdy construction with spare magazines and silencers.
[22:55] <@BradGM> ((a stub for each one of you))
[22:56] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((what stats? Type-Cs?))
[22:57] <+Elana> ((normal RAW stub gun I'd say))
[22:58] <@BradGM> ((nah; same as type-c, but 7 round capacity
[22:58] * +Grendel picks up the gun. "And the axe and the narcotics?"
[22:58] <@BradGM> ((and it's S/2/-))
[22:59] <@BradGM> ((what Grendel?))
[23:00] <+Elana> ((he added some stuff to his list -> * +Grendel adjusts his requisition to include a mono-axe, 2 doses of Frenzon, 2 of Slaught, and 2 of Stimm.))
[23:02] <@BradGM> ((missed that))
[23:02] <@BradGM> ((but ok))
[23:03] <@BradGM> Bradon "I got a few cans of flak spray too if you want them; good for quick armour, but it won't last long."
[23:03] * +Mira_Atella nods to Bradon, "Given the lack of armor, that would be great."
[23:04] <+Elana> "Flak spray?" 6She does not seem to be accustomed to such gear, now looking at Mira in hopes for a brief description.
[23:04] * +Grendel fills the injectors on his medicae machadendrite with multiple hisses.
[23:05] <+Grendel> "Ah, and a medikit for the frails.'
[23:05] <@BradGM> Each can is like a standard spraycan. Bradon explains that each can is good for 2 full clothing spray, giving the benefit of guard flak armour for a short time
[23:05] <@BradGM> ((3d10 rounds))
[23:06] * +Mira_Atella says to Elana, "It's like spraying on a flexible layer of armor to something, doesn't last too long, but it's better than nothing."
[23:06] <+Felucia> "just wondering do you all have any gaseous grenades?"
[23:06] <+Mira_Atella> "I use to use it a lot because I couldn't wear armor doing my job before all of this."
[23:06] <+Mira_Atella> (( used* ))
[23:07] <@BradGM> ((only work on clothing))
[23:08] * +Elana nods at the explanation, adding a 1"Useful" 6as her personal assessment.
[23:09] * +Mira_Atella takes one of the cans and puts it in her jacket.
[23:09] <+Elana> "Gas? Not that I know of. I would not be surprised if Quartermaster Bradon would have a few stored somewhere, though."
[23:09] <@BradGM> Bradon "what kind of gas?"
[23:10] * +Elana acquires one of the cans as well, studying its appearance for a moment.
[23:10] <+Felucia> "I prefer paralysis or sleeping, anything non lethal that can help keep stealth to a maximum
[23:11] * +Grendel gathers up his gear in a bundle.
[23:12] <@BradGM> Bradon "i got some stunning grenades, or hallusinogens."
[23:12] <+Felucia> "I guess stunning is the best, I maen having htem possible freak out from halisinations wont help us any."
[23:12] <+Elana> ((the latter sound like a lot of fun))
[23:15] <@BradGM> You get 3 stun grenades
[23:15] <@BradGM> ((whoever wants some can get 3 as well))
[23:16] * +Mira_Atella looks over the clothing that Bradon suggested for her. "These look good."
[23:16] * Calvin^ (~calvin@199.68.228.87) Quit (EOF from client)
[23:18] * Ribonizer (hehe@bas4-hull20-2925522383.dsl.bell.ca) Quit (Signed off)
[23:20] * +Grendel turns to Captain Rother. "Please alert the Inquisitor we should be ready to leave within the hour."
[23:20] <@BradGM> ((ok I supopse you each take a set of clothes, a gun+silencer a can of flak spray..))
[23:21] <+Lazerus_Grim> sure
[23:21] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((sure))*
[23:21] * +Felucia puts the grenadesi nto her pickets. "so is tehre any plan on where you wnat to head first?"
[23:21] <+Mira_Atella> (( yeah, and Mira still got her two swords, they should be fine under her coat yeah? ))
[23:21] <@BradGM> ((yes))
[23:22] <@BradGM> ((I suppose you get your trenchcoat or get a unarmoured one from Bradon?))
[23:22] * +Mira_Atella looks at Felucia, "If we're going back to the quarters to dye Elana's hair, we might want to wash yours as well."
[23:22] <+Mira_Atella> (( have my original one, yeah ))
[23:22] <+Grendel> "Can that not be done on the transport?"
[23:23] <+Mira_Atella> (( heh I didn't picture those as having little bathrooms ))
[23:23] <+Elana> "How long would we be underway, I wonder?"
[23:23] <+Felucia> "if we are goign to the parts of town I would assume I dont think sparkling clean hair will help our situation"
[23:24] <+Elana> ((well, we have to go through the warp - that means a ship of 1+ km length :P))
[23:27] * +Mira_Atella shrugs, "You're the one that brought up our appearance, and we'll be doing the Sister's anyway." She gathers everything and waits to hear back from Rothers about where they're even going to meet the transport.
[23:27] * +Grendel does not wish to have to tell the Inquisitor that they're delaying because the women are washing their hair.
[23:28] <@BradGM> An hour later, Rothers signals that jex is awaiting for you in Briefing room 8!
[23:28] <+Mira_Atella> (( lol it's called disguising her as not being a SoB ;) not slumber party makeover time ))
[23:28] <+Mira_Atella> (( We can just say the dyeing and what not was done in that time? ))
[23:28] <+Felucia> "Ill be fine mayhbe after this mission Ill take the time with the facilities"
[23:29] * +Grendel heads towards Briefing Room 8 with his gear.
[23:30] <@BradGM> ((Qand it's 11:30..getting alte))
[23:30] * +Mira_Atella took the time before being called to change her outfit and put each item on her person in the most concealed manner.
[23:31] <+Elana> ((soo did we disguise already or not?))
[23:32] <@BradGM> ((yes))
[23:33] * +Mira_Atella looks at Elana and the new hair as they walk to the meeting, "Definitely better."

[20:11] * +Mira_Atella sighs as Jex leaves, "Well that was fun."
[20:11] <@BradGM> Captain Rothers is in the Briefing room with you
[20:12] * +Elana almost seems to sulk. Then again, the Sister rarely sheds her serious facial expression.
[20:14] * +Grendel reads through the slate, before passing it around. "Perhaps we should all be sure to read it to ensure there are no..mistakes?"
[20:15] * +Mira_Atella takes the slate and reads over the information as well, transfering some details to her own slate before handing it to someone else.
[20:16] * +Elana 's eyes fall on the slate. Despite following its course, she patiently waits until it is handed to her.
[20:18] <+Grendel> "Captain Rother, are you able to provide information on where the beacon is held?"
[20:18] <@BradGM> Rothers "Please define question parameters."
[20:19] <+Grendel> "The location on the planet where the beacon is held."
[20:19] * +Mira_Atella looks at the information again, "It seems to be finding is part of our job."
[20:19] <+Mira_Atella> (( finding it* ))
[20:19] <@BradGM> Rothers "Cannot underatnd question."
[20:19] <@BradGM> ((rothers might not know about the info))
[20:20] * Daiya (Daiya@rrcs-71-41-160-142.sw.biz.rr.com) has joined #Shadowrun
[20:21] <+Elana> "It says that this Governor seems to ... collect such tainted artefacts. I would presume that it would be located in or near the governor's palace. Finding that building should be easy once we arrive."
[20:23] <+Mira_Atella> (( server splitting again or just quiet? heh ))
[20:23] <@BradGM> ((quiet it seems))
[20:24] <+Grendel> "Perhaps. The keeping of xenostech is quite risky. He may wish to hide it."
[20:25] * +Elana nods, for once in agreement with the martian priest. 1"It is quite possible that only very few people know of its exact location. We will have to approach one of them - without identifying ourselves as who we truly are, it seems."
[20:27] <+Grendel> "Captain Rothers, what are the transportation options to reach the planet Modra?"
[20:29] <+Mira_Atella> "I know that splitting up is not a preference, but if we're supposed to remain incognito, we might have to. We stick out a bit as a whole."
[20:29] <@BradGM> Rothers "Off-world transport shall be organized by Inquisitor Jex when Cell Mockingbird will be ready to leave Scintilla"
[20:31] * +Grendel nods, considering the options. "Perhaps once we arrive I can ask to see the beacon."
[20:31] * +Elana arches an eyebrow at the suggestion. 1"Is it not too early for such plans? We should make planetfall and erect a base of operations first, then see what we are dealing with before deciding anything."
[20:31] <+Mira_Atella> "I wasn't suggesting it as a plan, just something to keep in mind."
[20:34] * +Grendel shrugs. "Perhaps. In that case we should decide what we are taking with us?"
[20:36] <+Elana> "Everything. If we can acquire unsuspicious transportation, there is no need to leave any useful gear behind. We should, however, keep it stored and out of sight until absolutely needed."
[20:37] * +Grendel glances at Elana's armor.
[20:37] * +Mira_Atella nods.
[20:38] * +Elana pauses, then adds: 1"I suppose we also require civilian garments. Some of us may need to disguise certain features of their appearance." 6A finger tucks up a loose strand of hair dangling down in front of her face, though the gesture seems to be intended as a hint towards the tattoo marking her cheek.
[20:38] <+Elana> ((no armour, just robes today))
[20:40] <+Mira_Atella> "Rothers, is the transportation secure enough that we won't be stopped, so that we can take our gear?" She gives the skull an uneasy glance.
[20:40] <+Grendel> "Is is easier to disguise some of us."
[20:40] <@BradGM> Rothers "Off-world transportation information not available at this time"
[20:42] * +Mira_Atella grumbles under her breath. "How can they expect us to do anything if we can't even plan the most simple of travel arrangements?"
[20:43] * +Elana eyes the servo-skull. 1"I am sure this facility offers ways to acquire this information."
[20:44] <@BradGM> ((asking Jex could work))
[20:44] * +Grendel considers. "We should acquire any items we need from Bradon, and then see. I am sure there is nothing that we will be unable to get through."
[20:45] <+Mira_Atella> "And how do we pick items to take with us, when we know nothing? Take the wrong things and we'll get taken on the spot."
[20:45] <+Elana> ((he'd just say we can't do anything on our own! :P))
[20:46] <+Mira_Atella> (( heh, who wants to go after the angry yelling man after he stormed out? Not everyone at once now.. ))
[20:46] <@BradGM> ((send Rothers, he,s already dead))
[20:46] <+Elana> ((XD))
[20:47] * +Grendel turns to Captain Rothers, ordering him to go see if Inquisitor Jex has a way to get us and our gear to Modra safely, as well as a base of operations once htere.
[20:48] <@BradGM> Rothers floats there for a moment "Vox-link established"
[20:48] <@BradGM> Jex "Yes Mockingbird?"
[20:48] <+Elana> "We are likely to be identified as off-worlders regardless of how we clothe. However, there is nothing bad about being seen as visitors, as long as out true purpose remains hidden."
[20:49] <+Elana> ((our))
[20:49] * +Elana pauses, turning her head to Grendel, intent on letting the Tech-Priest handle the conversation.
[20:49] <+Grendel> "Inquisitor, will we have transportation and accomodations for our gear on the transport to Modra, and once we arrive?"
[20:51] <@BradGM> Jex "Of course you will!

[20:51] <@BradGM> ((there, better))
[20:51] * +Mira_Atella rolls her eyes a bit.
[20:52] * +Elana clenches her fists, but does not speak up.
[20:53] <@BradGM> Jex "The Captain That will so gladly transport you is a trusted character WE have used in the past; he runs a tight ship, so I am expecting proper conduct."
[20:54] <+Grendel> "Of course. Will we have transport to the planet and back whenever?"
[20:54] <@BradGM> Jex "That is behond my powers, but I am certain the Captain shall be able to arrange such trivalities."
[20:55] <+Grendel> "Very well Inquisitor."
[20:57] <+Elana> "When and where will we board?"6, she adds after a moment of hesitation.
[20:58] <@BradGM> Jex "Another thing. I will require Alaric's knowledge of the aRbites for a moment, but I would not want you to be undermanned; I shall send a replacement; Wait here a moment for Captain Rothers to return."
[20:58] * +Grendel frowns. "Very well."
[20:58] * +Elana exchanges glances with the Acolytes as the replacement is announced.
[20:59] * +Grendel turns to the rest. "It seems we will be able to keep our gear on the ship in orbit if need be, or perhaps on whatever lander he provides."
[20:59] <@BradGM> Jex "You shall board when ready, but time is a factor in this; the data-slate is 3 standard weeks old."
[21:01] <@BradGM> Jex "Anything else Mockingbird?"
[21:03] <+Grendel> "That will be all Inquisitor."
[21:03] <@BradGM> Jex "I know. Alaric, follow Captain Rothers to the Teleportarium this instant!"
[21:05] * +Elana rises. 1"It seems that this Captain can be trusted. A lander would indeed be the most ideal place to store any gear that may betray our true identities. It will be protected from the eyes of the local folk and security forces whilst at the same time being ready to be called upon, together with the vehicle itself."
[21:05] <@BradGM> Alaric rises up more or less rejoiced at the prospect of being left alone with the Inquistor. He gives you a look, almost like a good bye and leave with the Good Captian.
[21:05] * +Mira_Atella speaks almost inaudibly "Anyone getting assigned to us at this juncture must have messed something up even more than our little issue, or they're being sent to babysit." She sighs.
[21:06] <+Grendel> "Perhaps."
[21:07] * +Elana lets the Arbitrator part, though not without a short nod and a blessing.
[21:09] <+Grendel> "Perhaps the Inquisitor needs another Captain Rother."
[21:10] <@BradGM> ((pfff))
[21:10] <@BradGM> ((he'll make a hat with Alaric's skin))
[21:11] * Daiya (Daiya@rrcs-71-41-160-142.sw.biz.rr.com) has left #Shadowrun
[21:11] * Felucia (Daiya@rrcs-71-41-160-142.sw.biz.rr.com) has joined #Shadowrun
[21:11] <@BradGM> ((then with a clever system or ropes pulleys and tech, you'll have a servo-skull puppetteering a human-sized doll))
[21:11] <@BradGM> ((or=of))
[21:12] <+Grendel> "We will need a Vox-caster."
[21:12] * BradGM sets mode: +v Felucia
[21:12] <+Elana> ((>_>))
[21:12] <@BradGM> 10 minutes later, Captain Rothers return with the replacement
[21:12] <+Elana> "Do you not think a vox-caster would be somewhat ... suspicious?"
[21:14] <+Grendel> "If the lander is compromised, it will be the only way to communicate, and if we must separate."
[21:15] <+Elana> "Perhaps we can use local vox-transmission. Two groups with vox-casters the manner of those used by His Imperial Guard would surely attract attention."
[21:17] * +Grendel looks at the newcomer from beneath the cowl of his robe.
[21:21] <@BradGM> ((?))
[21:22] <+Grendel> ((Well, I assume the newcomer is going to atleast describe themselves : )) )
[21:22] <+Mira_Atella> (( I was waiting for some kind of intro.. or something ))
[21:23] <+Elana> ((same here ;))
[21:23] <+Mira_Atella> (( Not sure if Grim is alive lol ))
[21:24] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((i'm here, just love listening to you guys talk strategy))
[21:24] <+Grendel> "If its not necessary we can leave it on the lander, yes?"
[21:25] <@BradGM> ((won't be long))
[21:26] * +Felucia looks around the room, she was a rather oddly clothed girl with what right now looks more like dark brown hair that falls down to her back but is oddly clumped togehter, her clothes are presentable but look rather old and worn, her face is pretty definately not somone youd just pass over though the rest of her makes her look closer to a homeless vagabond then somone sa respectable
[21:26] * +Felucia as the lot she seems to be before, the only decent looking clothing is her green trenchcoat that kind of covers up most of her figure so the rest cant be truly seen.
[21:27] * +Mira_Atella raises a brow as the girl steps in.
[21:28] <+Felucia> brb
[21:28] <@BradGM> ((huh..))
[21:28] <@BradGM> ((heh))
[21:29] <+Elana> "If it will become necessary, I should think we stand together ..."6, the robed Sister adds before her eyes wander to the new inductee, studying what appears to be the cell's newest member.
[21:29] <+Elana> ((another victim of the hive holok scheme, I see :P))
[21:30] * +Grendel looks over the newcomer, before turning back to the Sister. "it is reasonable to take the precaution."
[21:30] * +Lazerus_Grim steps up to the shabby one and introduces himself.
[21:31] <+Lazerus_Grim> "I am Lazerus Grim, eldest of this team and pleased to meet you, Lady....?"
[21:31] <@BradGM> ((adding some mind powa on this intro for laughs Lazerus?))
[21:32] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((yeah, i did just get Trusting Aura))

[21:32] <+DiceServitor> Lazerus_Grim rolls 1D10+5: 8 +5 = 13
[21:33] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((manifested but no overbleed, so just +10))
[21:35] <@BradGM> ((still, you still look more charming and friendly))
[21:35] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((like i needed the help....))
[21:35] * +Grendel continues speaking to the Sister. "It does not cost anything to do so."
[21:36] <+Mira_Atella> (( Yeah really.. the techie is just scary looking, Elana always looks constipated, and Mira looks like she wants to rip everyone's arms off and beat them to death with them lol :D ))
[21:36] <@BradGM> ((You're the Obiwan to R2, Lea and Chewie))
[21:36] <+Elana> ((:D))
[21:37] <@BradGM> (("Those are not the acolytes you're looking for, cultist."))
[21:37] <+Felucia> (nice visuals)
[21:39] * +Elana does not seem to be convinced yet. 1"If you wish - though I do not think it would be wise to venture beyond the distance of our micro-beads, lest we cannot help each other in times of need."
[21:39] <+Grendel> "Plans often go awry, yes?"
[21:42] * +Mira_Atella ponders for a moment, "Often? Try always."
[21:42] * +Felucia watches them bicker just feeling her trust in the group grow and grow
[21:43] <+Felucia> "Im felucia nice to meet you all, it is nice to hear such positive things about your rate of sucess
[21:43] <+Grendel> "Better to have it and nod need it, then need it and not have the blessing of the Omnissiah, yes?"
[21:43] * +Mira_Atella glances at the new girl.
[21:44] * +Lazerus_Grim whispers aside to her.
[21:45] <+Lazerus_Grim> "They're kind of engrossed in the planning right now, better save the introductions for when they're not too busy for you. Enough of them, though, how did you get here? I mean, with us?"
[21:46] <+Felucia> "I was recruited, mainly I guess for my odd way of using my skills, though how I got here I still dont fully understand."
[21:47] * +Lazerus_Grim nods, the story all too familiar.
[21:47] * +Elana eyes Mira for a moment. 1"Thy reep what thy seed"6, she intones before her attention returns to Felucia. 1"Do not pay too much heed to these words. Though we may not be the best messengers this side of Holy Terra, so far we succeeded on other, more vital tasks given to us."
[21:47] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Well, you'll fit in just nicely here, we're all a little bit of a misfit in some way."
[21:48] * +Elana gives Lazerus a somewhat displeased look at the notion.
[21:48] * +Lazerus_Grim proceeds to describe each of the other members of the team, mostly giving positive feedback but also making a point to include a funny story so that the newcomer doesn't feel intimidated.
[21:48] <+Grendel> "What does the newcomer do exactly?"
[21:48] <+Felucia> "looks like not everyone agrees with that label"
[21:49] <+Felucia> "well so far I talk"
[21:49] * +Mira_Atella narrows her eyes at Grim. "What do you think you're doing?"
[21:49] <@BradGM> ((he's whispering while you're tlaking))
[21:49] <@BradGM> ((Or at least he's muffed by Grendel and Elana talking about vox-casters))
[21:50] <+Mira_Atella> (( Mira turned towards the two of them, I can do a roll if I need to, to hear it heh ))
[21:50] <@BradGM> (('least that's what I understood))
[21:50] <+Elana> ((I'd be delighted to hear the funny stories though :P))
[21:50] <@BradGM> ((depends if lazerus is still whispering or not))
[21:51] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((it might not be whispering but it is hushed so as not to draw attention from the group and interrupt their conversation))
[21:51] <@BradGM> ((ha ok))
[21:52] <+Mira_Atella> !perc 44
[21:52] <+DiceServitor> Mira_Atella rolls [ 44% (or Lower) : 12 34%, Success ]

[21:52] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((darn you, Assassin))
[21:52] <+Grendel> "And we will need armor as well."
[21:53] <@BradGM> Mira you are able to ehar lazerus talking about the others in a granpa is reconforting with stories kinda way.
[21:53] <@BradGM> ((since I suppose you're mainitaining your power Laz?))
[21:54] <+Elana> ((nice description ;))
[21:54] <+Lazerus_Grim> 1d10+5
[21:54] <+DiceServitor> Lazerus_Grim rolls 1D10+5: 2 +5 = 7
[21:54] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((yep))
[21:54] * +Mira_Atella asks the question, but doesn't much wait for an answer, "Do you share our personal information with everyone you've met less than five minutes ago?"
[21:55] <@BradGM> ((so you got your heartwarming granpa aura floating))
[21:55] * +Lazerus_Grim gives Mira an innocent look.
[21:56] <+Lazerus_Grim> "I meant no harm, only trying to introduce the new girl and give her some perspective on how we do things and such. And also trying to comfort her as I'm sure she's a bit intimidated and maybe scared at the situation she finds herself in."
[21:56] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((trying to soothe Mira's raging emotions, should i roll Charm for that?))
[21:57] * +Elana studies Felucia once more. 1"Hmm. The Emperor sometimes works in mysterious ways. Rest assured that you do have a purpose here."
[21:57] * +Mira_Atella stands from the chair and walks towards the door, "If she's here with us, I think she can handle it. Jex didn't pick us for our naivety and innocence."
[21:58] * +Lazerus_Grim mutters aside to himself.
[21:58] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Well he certainly didn't choose you for your tact...."
[21:58] <+Mira_Atella> (( heh can she still hear him? ))
[21:59] <@BradGM> (-10))

[21:59] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((Felucia would have heard it though))
[22:00] <@BradGM> Mira, lazerus clears his troat
[22:01] <+Mira_Atella> "We should go to the armory and get going. Longer we wait the less viable anything we were given will remain relevant. He said it is 3 weeks old as it is." She taps the dataslate in her hands.
[22:02] * +Mira_Atella gives a pointed look at Grim and leaves the room, heading to the armory.
[22:02] * +Grendel nods, getting to his feet. "The newcomer has yet to say what she is good at?"
[22:02] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((i'll be right back, have to shut down my computer for a moment))
[22:02] * +Lazerus_Grim (~knight.ri@173-165-239-237-minnesota.hfc.comcastbusiness.net) Quit (Quit)
[22:07] <@BradGM> ((ok))
[22:07] * +Grendel shrugs at the lack of response and heads to Bradon to get kitted out for the mission.
[22:07] <@BradGM> Mira you arrive at Munitorium D
[22:08] * Lazerus_Grim (~knight.ri@173-165-239-237-minnesota.hfc.comcastbusiness.net) has joined #Shadowrun
[22:09] * BradGM sets mode: +v Lazerus_Grim
[22:09] * +Elana goes to accompany the Tech-Priest, once more nodding towards Felucia as an incentive that she should join them as well.
[22:09] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((sorry about it))
[22:09] * +Mira_Atella requests the same items she asked for on the previous mission, and also some baggy clothing to wear over it all and a long jacket to conceal the swords. "There's a new addition, Bradon.. be careful Grim doesn't tell her your life story."
[22:10] <+Elana> ((no prob, wb!))
[22:10] <@BradGM> ((np Grim; Mira and Grendel left for Braond, leaving you Elana and Felucia))
[22:10] <@BradGM> Bradon "Oh really? How so?"
[22:10] <+Elana> ((I'm actually going with the TP - I take it we're all going?))
[22:10] * +Lazerus_Grim stays with the new girl, intending on showing her the way to the armoury.
[22:12] <@BradGM> ((Yeah just that Mira arrives with a head's start))
[22:13] <@BradGM> ((enough for that lil, exchange before you all arrive))
[22:14] * +Mira_Atella shrugs a bit. "Considering none of us really know why we're here, him telling her after a few minutes about us just doesn't feel right."
[22:15] <@BradGM> Bradon "Bah, you know with what his type works; I suppose there's a reason for that."
[22:15] * +Felucia follows lazerus. "so have you ever been to Tarsis Ultra?"
[22:15] * +Grendel places an order with Bradon, filling out a form for Imperial Guard Flak armor, an auspex, a glow globe, Magnoculars, a multi-key, pict recorder and a vox-caster.
[22:16] <+Mira_Atella> "We'll see." She slips the requisitioned items on over her suit and adjusts the weapons properly, holding the rest in her hands.
[22:17] * +Lazerus_Grim thinks for a moment and then shrugs. "If I have a don't remember, for I am old and my memory is not what it once was. I tell you, cherish your youth, little one."
[22:20] * +Elana arrives together with Grendel, pausing for a moment as she re-thinks the upcoming task before requesting a maglocked chest large enough to hold all her possessions including the armour as well as a set of civilian garb. Further she inquires about some sort of skin-toned creme with which to cover up the ecclesiarchal tattoo on her cheek.
[22:20] <@BradGM> Lazerus, Elana and Felucia arrives at Munitorium D
[22:21] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Bradon, my old friend, we have a new member in the group. Felucia is her name, and so far just talking is her game, but I'm sure she has other talents, perhaps even some she'll need gear for,"
[22:22] <@BradGM> Bradon "Right Lazerus, i suppose you already told her about how things work here?"
[22:22] * +Grendel bundles up his gear to put on someplace else.
[22:22] * +Lazerus_Grim aside to Felucia, "Name the gear you want, within reason, and he'll loan it to you. Return it in good condition, and you'll keep on his good side. I'll fill out these first couple requisition forms for you, so you get used to the process."
[22:23] * +Lazerus_Grim ((that should say)) "....so you can see the process in action and don't get bogged down with the paperwork."
[22:24] <@BradGM> Bradon gets your things and seems a bit surprised at Elana's request.
[22:24] <@BradGM> ((and not just because she used the word "creme"))
[22:25] * +Elana retains her serious facial expression, raising a brow at the squat's reaction.
[22:25] <@BradGM> Bradon "Ooh, must be going somewhere really discreet for you to do ask for that..."
[22:26] <+Elana> "Perhaps"6, she half-admits, not feeling entirely sure about how much the quartermaster is supposed to know regarding the various cells' operations. 1"Let us just say that we may have to conceal our most obvious identities."
[22:27] <@BradGM> Bradon "Then maybe a haircut or a dye-job then?"
[22:27] <@BradGM> Bradon "Not every women in the Imperium got the bowl cut sister."
[22:28] * +Elana seems somewhat reluctant at this suggestion. 1"Maybe if I would just ... wear it in a different way? I would prefer this .. disguise to be as temporary as possible."
[22:28] * +Felucia watches how the group handles themselves just keeping silent and taking in as much information as she can.
[22:28] * +Grendel steps back with his gear, wondering how this is going to play out, all due to his study of the Imperial Creed of course.
[22:29] * +Mira_Atella looks around for Rothers.
[22:30] <@BradGM> Rothers was tailing behind with Lazerus and Felucia
[22:30] <@BradGM> Bradon "dying's not too hard; Mira do it all the time."
[22:30] * +Mira_Atella looks to the skull, "Did Jex tell you where the captain is that is helping us, or what his name is?"
[22:30] <@BradGM> ((dying hair mind you))
[22:30] <@BradGM> Rothers "Negative."
[22:31] * +Elana eyes the assassin, giving a slight nod. 1"Truly spoken. And I suppose it would come out easy enough with enough water, no?"
[22:32] <@BradGM> Bradon "Of course it does, nobles do it all the time I'm telling you. Nothing to be afraid of."
[22:32] * +Mira_Atella looks back, hearing the tail end of the dye conversation, "Yeah, it's easy enough depending on how long you need it to stay."
[22:33] * +Mira_Atella walks close to Elana and whispers, "Does it seem like we're purposely not being given information? Nothing about this new person, no name or location for a captain we're supposed to meet, no details at all."
[22:34] <+Elana> "Very well"6, the Sister concedes. 1"My thanks for the suggestion. Given our mission, this should be in accordance to the rules of my Order."
[22:35] <@BradGM> Bradon "since you're requestin' civilian clothing, if i knew where you were going I might get you something that actually fits."
[22:35] * +Elana lends the assassin her ear, followed by a short glance towards Felucia. 1"Are you implying that she may be part of whatever test our Inquisitor may have in mind for us?" 6A whispered reply, not louder than Mira's initial remark.
[22:36] * +Grendel adjusts his requisition to include a mono-axe, 2 doses of Frenzon, 2 of Slaught, and 2 of Stimm.
[22:36] <+Elana> "The Hazeroth Abyss"6, she answers the Quartermaster. 1"What was this world ... Modra?"
[22:37] * +Mira_Atella shrugs, "I don't know, just the lack of information makes it seem like he wants us to fail."
[22:37] <+Felucia> "so..... does anyone want to tell me what we are doing?"
[22:38] * +Mira_Atella retrieves her dataslate and hands it to the girl to read. (( don't have link on hand if someone else does ))
[22:39] <@BradGM> Bradon works his cognitor engine for a moment "Ah,..that's something.."
[22:39] <@BradGM> He switches the screen to show you
[22:39] <@BradGM> ((long story short; you know of the roaring 20s? like that))
[22:40] <+Grendel> ((Elana the flapper girl? lol)
[22:40] <+Mira_Atella> (( .... ))
[22:40] <+Elana> ((I will not take one of those silly hats :P))
[22:40] <+Mira_Atella> (( Well at least Mira is used to wearing skimpy revealing things heh ))
[22:40] <+Grendel> "There is no much point in trying to hide my affiliation."
[22:40] <+Mira_Atella> (( have to adjust to not have anything baggy though, so hard to carry weapons ))
[22:41] * +Elana arches her brows at the example, though she does not seem to be -too- shocked. It is not inconceivable that, to the Sister, any kind of civilian clothing would seem foreign.
[22:42] <@BradGM> ((worse case you cna always got the pant wearing adventuress))
[22:43] <+Elana> ((hah, true!))
[22:43] <+Elana> ((with stub revolver ...))
[22:44] * +Mira_Atella sees the example on the screen and slides the baggy items she got back to Bradon, but keeps the long coat as it still seems appropriate enough. "I'll let you decide what would be best to conceal the two guns and the swords" She gives a grin to him.
[22:44] <@BradGM> Bradon "That green trenchcoat's good"
[22:45] * +Mira_Atella nods, "Yeah, I figured that was still passable. But those baggy things, not as much."
[22:45] <+Felucia> (so ummmm lol what link on the dark heresy page is for hte data slate?)
[22:45] <@BradGM> ((what baggy things Mira?))
[22:45] <@BradGM> http://dark-heresy.wikispaces.com/Slate
[22:46] <+Elana> "If this will serve to keep my disguise - I would prefer shoes without heels, though. Better yet, firm boots. And something that would not obstruct my movement too much ..."6, she continues to voice her wishes as her indoctrinated militant mind already reverts back to what sounds like battle preparations instead of viable infiltration.
[22:46] <+Mira_Atella> (( heh guess you didn't see it earlier, she asked for everything from the last mission, plus baggy clothing to cover the weapons. Then you had him sliding stuff over so figured you saw it ))
[22:47] <+Mira_Atella> (( but now only the weapons are viable lol even the bodyglove would be really obvious ))
[22:47] <@BradGM> ((ah ok; yeah got confused with something else))
[22:47] <+Felucia> "Ummmm do I have indigo clearance?"
[22:48] <+Mira_Atella> "If you didn't, you do for now at least."
[22:48] <+Felucia> "okay" goes back to reading.
[22:49] * +Lazerus_Grim steps up and requests a similar set of clothes, filling out the paperwork.
[22:50] <@BradGM> Bradon "I suppose you would like some local weapons?"
[22:50] <+Mira_Atella> "So it looks like we aren't going to get away with much in the way of armor or larger weapons. Nothing that can't be concealed under a coat, and we can't all have coats if we're going to stay in a group." She ponders a bit.
[22:50] * +Mira_Atella nods to Bradon.
[22:51] <+Elana> ((weren't coats really fashionable in the 20s? :D))
[22:51] <+Felucia> "well it seems like we need to find a way into this guys place and find out as much info on why the eldar are attacking here? I think I can help out"
[22:52] <@BradGM> (trenchcoats and all that))
[22:52] <+Felucia> (yeah in the year 40020 they were popular)
[22:53] * +Lazerus_Grim claps Felucia on the shoulder. "What other reason would Jex have put you with us? I'm sure you've got some mighty great skills beneath that unassuming aura."
[22:53] * +Mira_Atella takes the dataslate back from Felucia and puts it away in her coat.
[22:53] * +Felucia looks him up and down. "Ill keep my aura to myself but thankyou for the rest."
[22:55] <+Felucia> "but you all must realise to really get decent info we cant just march aroudn like a army of god"
[22:55] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Simply meant persona, little one, nothing nefarious."
[22:55] <+Elana> "Regrettably"6, the Sister adds.
[22:55] <@BradGM> Bradon brings a stub pistol of sturdy construction with spare magazines and silencers.
[22:55] <@BradGM> ((a stub for each one of you))
[22:56] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((what stats? Type-Cs?))
[22:57] <+Elana> ((normal RAW stub gun I'd say))
[22:58] <@BradGM> ((nah; same as type-c, but 7 round capacity
[22:58] * +Grendel picks up the gun. "And the axe and the narcotics?"
[22:58] <@BradGM> ((and it's S/2/-))
[22:59] <@BradGM> ((what Grendel?))
[23:00] <+Elana> ((he added some stuff to his list -> * +Grendel adjusts his requisition to include a mono-axe, 2 doses of Frenzon, 2 of Slaught, and 2 of Stimm.))
[23:02] <@BradGM> ((missed that))
[23:02] <@BradGM> ((but ok))
[23:03] <@BradGM> Bradon "I got a few cans of flak spray too if you want them; good for quick armour, but it won't last long."
[23:03] * +Mira_Atella nods to Bradon, "Given the lack of armor, that would be great."
[23:04] <+Elana> "Flak spray?" 6She does not seem to be accustomed to such gear, now looking at Mira in hopes for a brief description.
[23:04] * +Grendel fills the injectors on his medicae machadendrite with multiple hisses.
[23:05] <+Grendel> "Ah, and a medikit for the frails.'
[23:05] <@BradGM> Each can is like a standard spraycan. Bradon explains that each can is good for 2 full clothing spray, giving the benefit of guard flak armour for a short time
[23:05] <@BradGM> ((3d10 rounds))
[23:06] * +Mira_Atella says to Elana, "It's like spraying on a flexible layer of armor to something, doesn't last too long, but it's better than nothing."
[23:06] <+Felucia> "just wondering do you all have any gaseous grenades?"
[23:06] <+Mira_Atella> "I use to use it a lot because I couldn't wear armor doing my job before all of this."
[23:06] <+Mira_Atella> (( used* ))
[23:07] <@BradGM> ((only work on clothing))
[23:08] * +Elana nods at the explanation, adding a 1"Useful" 6as her personal assessment.
[23:09] * +Mira_Atella takes one of the cans and puts it in her jacket.
[23:09] <+Elana> "Gas? Not that I know of. I would not be surprised if Quartermaster Bradon would have a few stored somewhere, though."
[23:09] <@BradGM> Bradon "what kind of gas?"
[23:10] * +Elana acquires one of the cans as well, studying its appearance for a moment.
[23:10] <+Felucia> "I prefer paralysis or sleeping, anything non lethal that can help keep stealth to a maximum
[23:11] * +Grendel gathers up his gear in a bundle.
[23:12] <@BradGM> Bradon "i got some stunning grenades, or hallusinogens."
[23:12] <+Felucia> "I guess stunning is the best, I maen having htem possible freak out from halisinations wont help us any."
[23:12] <+Elana> ((the latter sound like a lot of fun))
[23:15] <@BradGM> You get 3 stun grenades
[23:15] <@BradGM> ((whoever wants some can get 3 as well))
[23:16] * +Mira_Atella looks over the clothing that Bradon suggested for her. "These look good."
[23:16] * Calvin^ (~calvin@199.68.228.87) Quit (EOF from client)
[23:18] * Ribonizer (hehe@bas4-hull20-2925522383.dsl.bell.ca) Quit (Signed off)
[23:20] * +Grendel turns to Captain Rother. "Please alert the Inquisitor we should be ready to leave within the hour."
[23:20] <@BradGM> ((ok I supopse you each take a set of clothes, a gun+silencer a can of flak spray..))
[23:21] <+Lazerus_Grim> sure
[23:21] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((sure))*
[23:21] * +Felucia puts the grenadesi nto her pickets. "so is tehre any plan on where you wnat to head first?"
[23:21] <+Mira_Atella> (( yeah, and Mira still got her two swords, they should be fine under her coat yeah? ))
[23:21] <@BradGM> ((yes))
[23:22] <@BradGM> ((I suppose you get your trenchcoat or get a unarmoured one from Bradon?))
[23:22] * +Mira_Atella looks at Felucia, "If we're going back to the quarters to dye Elana's hair, we might want to wash yours as well."
[23:22] <+Mira_Atella> (( have my original one, yeah ))
[23:22] <+Grendel> "Can that not be done on the transport?"
[23:23] <+Mira_Atella> (( heh I didn't picture those as having little bathrooms ))
[23:23] <+Elana> "How long would we be underway, I wonder?"
[23:23] <+Felucia> "if we are goign to the parts of town I would assume I dont think sparkling clean hair will help our situation"
[23:24] <+Elana> ((well, we have to go through the warp - that means a ship of 1+ km length :P))
[23:27] * +Mira_Atella shrugs, "You're the one that brought up our appearance, and we'll be doing the Sister's anyway." She gathers everything and waits to hear back from Rothers about where they're even going to meet the transport.
[23:27] * +Grendel does not wish to have to tell the Inquisitor that they're delaying because the women are washing their hair.
[23:28] <@BradGM> An hour later, Rothers signals that jex is awaiting for you in Briefing room 8!
[23:28] <+Mira_Atella> (( lol it's called disguising her as not being a SoB ;) not slumber party makeover time ))
[23:28] <+Mira_Atella> (( We can just say the dyeing and what not was done in that time? ))
[23:28] <+Felucia> "Ill be fine mayhbe after this mission Ill take the time with the facilities"
[23:29] * +Grendel heads towards Briefing Room 8 with his gear.
[23:30] <@BradGM> ((Qand it's 11:30..getting alte))
[23:30] * +Mira_Atella took the time before being called to change her outfit and put each item on her person in the most concealed manner.
[23:31] <+Elana> ((soo did we disguise already or not?))
[23:32] <@BradGM> ((yes))
[23:33] * +Mira_Atella looks at Elana and the new hair as they walk to the meeting, "Definitely better."
[23:33] <@BradGM> +++++++Terminate Transmission+++++++
