[20:14] <@BradGM> +++Location: Honeymoon suite, Floor 10, Broadway Hotel/Poone’s Flophouse; New Haven, Planet Modra, Hazeroth Abyss.+++
[20:14] <@BradGM> +++0701 Local time+++
[20:15] <@BradGM> +++Mockingbird landed at the Spaceport an hour or so before the day’s traffic of people and goods began to flow in, and despite aggressive glares from Spaceport Security, Grendel found information about a bus passing soon to bring them to New Haven, the closest town to begin their time-shifted investigation.
[20:15] <@BradGM> . Mira and Elana went to buy tickets, and had to think fast to tell a tale to the cashier woman but managed to get recommended lodging in town.
[20:15] <@BradGM> Arriving in the city early morning, Mockingbird was indecisive on how to proceed with his mission, when Felucia took Lazerus and Elana to the recommended hotel, which had brought little confidence in Mira,
[20:16] <@BradGM> fearing a trap or the possibility of one and the act that the scum acted without a group decision. The Assassin and Grendel walked a couple of blocks toward the poorer side of town and rented a room in a flophouse while Felucia conned the Hotel with a cover story for herself,
[20:16] <@BradGM> Lazerus and Elana and rented the honeymoon suite. All the while, Lazerus is pretty confident there was something important Inquisitor Jex told them before leaving Scintilla...but he can’t quite recall it.+++

She turns on her heels and heads for the stairway. [20:21] * +Grendel` follows along, waiting until we're well away from the manager. "We should inform the others as soon as possible." [20:23] <+Mira_Atella> "We'll have to find them first, all we know is the building, not what room, where to meet, or anything else." [20:24] <+Felucia> (pertty sure I ahd said somthign about meetign either outsdie the hotel or in a restauraunt or somthing lol) [20:24] <+Mira_Atella> (( nope, that was why Mira was so pissed when Felucia walked off )) [20:25] <@BradGM> ((The other 3 can talk to..or would you guys prefer another room?)) [20:25] <+Lazerus_Grim> (("Elana, Lazerus, you come with me right now, Mira and Grendel you come seperately and meet us out front in about a hour." so yep, she did)) [20:25] <+Felucia> (no Im pertty sure I did say somthing at some point) [20:26] <+Felucia> (I jsut dont remember if it was in a restaurant or in front of hotel [20:26] <+Mira_Atella> (( okay, out front it is )) [20:27] * +Grendel` considers the flophouse, his expression hidden beneath the respirator. [20:27] * +Lazerus_Grim sits in a chair after his rant at Felucia, thinking it possibly should have waited until after the mission, and scratches his head, sure that Jex said something important. [20:27] * +Mira_Atella opens the door to their room and steps inside, looking immediately for other ways in or out. [20:28] <+Elana> ((does the suite have a shrine? :P)) [20:28] <+Felucia> (yes its that big heart shaped bed) [20:28] <@BradGM> Your room, is a somewhat clean room, with dusty sheets, an uneven table and chair, with a small crassy bathroom with a rusting bath. [20:28] * +Felucia takes al ook out the windows to see if she can find any decent restaurants [20:29] <@BradGM> From this hiehgt, no [20:29] <@BradGM> ((and no shirne)) [20:30] * +Elana has retreated into a corner and is currently kneeling for prayers, using the small adamantine beads that are, as part of her cover, acting as a necklace instead of being slung around her waist. [20:30] <+Elana> ((heresy)) [20:30] <+Felucia> "Im goign to go scout a restaurant to get a meeting place at, Il ltel you all where then go meet hte rest of hte group and tell tehm to go there too, best if we dont acutally go in anyplace as a group right?" [20:30] <@BradGM> Mira, there is a small meter high guiotille window half as wide giving into a brick wall 5 meters across the alley [20:31] <+Mira_Atella> "Well, at least there's only one way someone can get in. Though I doubt we'll be here much." [20:31] * +Grendel` nods. "Hopefully."

[20:36] * +Mira_Atella peers at him oddly, "We were standing on the other side of the street from it, and watched them go inside. Your wiring okay?" [20:37] <@BradGM> Lazerus recalls Inquisitor Jex's words before going in the teleportarium. [20:38] <+Grendel`> ((Ah, I thought they were slightly further away than that)) [20:38] <+Felucia> (I thought we were further too lol) [20:38] <@BradGM> ((You're 3 blocks away form it, enar the poorer side of town)) [20:38] * +Lazerus_Grim while sitting in his now favorite chair the light goes on. He will wait to share his revelation until the group is all together. [20:39] <+Mira_Atella> (( the lady at the place said the hotel was right by the bus station, so we must have been either across the street or in front of it when you guys went in, right? )) [20:39] * +Felucia heads out of the hotel lookign around for a not too high quality restaurant but still not a total dive. [20:40] * +Grendel` checks the time again on his chrono. [20:41] <@BradGM> You find a middle of the road diner right in the bus depot,mostly used by bus drivers, the buses'technomats and the long distance travellers. [20:41] * +Felucia looks for any other place around there [20:41] <@BradGM> Grendel, you still got 15 minutes before leaving to meet up with the others [20:43] * +Grendel` glances around and checks to see if the water works. "15 minutes until we have to leave." [20:44] <@BradGM> Grendle, it works, but it seems a little thick. [20:45] * +Grendel` considers the water for a moment before turning it off. [20:45] * +Mira_Atella nods. "We might as well go then, grab a place not right out front but where we can still see them when they come out." [20:45] * +Elana opens her eyes, then gets up from her position. 1"Very well." 6The Sister steps to one of the windows, examining the scenery outside. [20:47] * +Grendel` nods to the assassin, motioning for her to lead the way. [20:49] * +Mira_Atella leaves the room and heads out of the flop house, taking her time and not walking too quickly back towards the destination. [20:50] * +Grendel` follows along, mechadendrites pulled in as closely as possible. [20:51] * +Felucia heads to meet mira and grendel. [20:52] * +Lazerus_Grim glances as his chrono before standing and heading for the door. 1"Coming, Dead?" [20:52] <@BradGM> Mira and grendle, you see the flow of workers leaving the workers' habs and proceed to buses and elevated trains to their daily work. You see a few boarded up buildings as well. [20:52] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((lol, Dear*)) [20:52] <+Elana> ((>:P)) [20:52] <@BradGM> ((I can feel the lvoe)) [20:53] <+Felucia> (Felucia asked you and laz to stay in the hotel to not be seen as a group out in the open) [20:53] <+Felucia> (up to you all to listen or not lol) [20:53] <+Elana> "Of course." 6The disguised holy warrior turns from the window to catch up with the hidden witch. [20:53] <+Elana> ((as a player I cannot remember that - I blame laz :P)) [20:54] * +Grendel` glances around, studying the workers and thte trains and the buses..but mostly the buses and trains.

[22:20] * +Mira_Atella nods and moves further in to the room, finding a place to sit down. "I have light if we really need it, but unless it is really important, I think we can deal with a few bruised shins."
[22:21] * +Elana sighs, sitting down. 1"Very well. Let us talk, shall we?"

[22:27] <+Grendel`> "So we need to find out where the cogitator engine is being held, retrieve it, and get picked up."
[22:30] * +Mira_Atella nods "And until we know where it is, we can't make much of a plan."
[22:30] * +Elana nods. 1"We should begin reconnaisance aimed at the governor's palace as soon as possible."
[22:31] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Or perhaps our contact here in New Haven might have some ideas."
[22:33] <@BradGM> ((dun dun DUUUNNN))
[22:33] <+Grendel`> "The contact?"
[22:33] * +Mira_Atella nods to Grim, "The more information we have the better. If we rush this, we'll end up with nothing, captured, or worse. And I don't think Jex will bother with us again if we fail."
[22:34] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Gettok Spinlop, a storeowner here in New Haven. He's supposed to meet us at the spaceport in a little under seven days from now."
[22:35] <+Elana> "Ah, the warp distortion... I hope you do not suggest we remain idle for the time being?"
[22:38] * +Lazerus_Grim softly laughs at the prospect. 1"God-Emperor, no. I'd rather impress Jex with our speedy completion and return."
[22:38] * +Grendel` shrugs. "We can try to contact him ahead of time."
[22:38] <+Mira_Atella> "Wouldn't that make him suspicious?"
[22:39] <+Grendel`> "We have means of identifying ourselves."
[22:40] <+Felucia> "well didnt we arrive here a week early? mabye he doesnt even know about hour mission yet"
[22:40] * +Elana blinks at that possibility.
[22:42] <+Mira_Atella> "That could be true. We have to be careful with the time mechanics of what happened. If the wrong person knows that we're in two places at once.. bad science stuff happens I'm sure."
[22:42] <+Grendel`> "I am sure this happens often across the Imperium."
[22:43] <+Felucia> "thats also why I made such a extended stay at the hotel, but look at it this way, if people expect us to arrive a week from now people who have been here for a week already wont be suspected
[22:44] <+Mira_Atella> "Again, unless we're recognized as being in both places at once. I know it's a small chance, and one we'll likely need to take to avoid sitting around for a week, but still something to keep in mind."
[22:45] <+Felucia> "well we know our mission, jsut avoid anyone who might know later we are here adn find the information we need withy any luck we will finish the mission in one day and look all the better for it"
[22:47] * +Grendel` shakes his head. "The Imperium is well aware of the problems of Warp travel. We should contact the agent on planet, get our information, and plan."
[22:50] <+Elana> "If this option is available, by all means. The sooner we get to something, the better we will all feel."
[22:50] <+Felucia> (what about the temperal prime directive)
[22:51] <+Mira_Atella> (( Temporal prime directive be damned, we want to get home and be given a cookie! ))
[22:51] <+Elana> (>.<)
[22:51] <@BradGM> ((yeah let me handle the fun of time warp))
[22:52] <+Grendel`> "Then let us find out where the contact is, some of us will go, explain, and get the information needed."

[20:15] <@BradGM> +++Mockingbird landed at the Spaceport an hour or so before the day’s traffic of people and goods began to flow in, and despite aggressive glares from Spaceport Security, Grendel found information about a bus passing soon to bring them to New Haven, the closest town to begin their time-shifted investigation.
[20:15] <@BradGM> . Mira and Elana went to buy tickets, and had to think fast to tell a tale to the cashier woman but managed to get recommended lodging in town.
[20:15] <@BradGM> Arriving in the city early morning, Mockingbird was indecisive on how to proceed with his mission, when Felucia took Lazerus and Elana to the recommended hotel, which had brought little confidence in Mira,
[20:16] <@BradGM> fearing a trap or the possibility of one and the act that the scum acted without a group decision. The Assassin and Grendel walked a couple of blocks toward the poorer side of town and rented a room in a flophouse while Felucia conned the Hotel with a cover story for herself,
[20:16] <@BradGM> Lazerus and Elana and rented the honeymoon suite. All the while, Lazerus is pretty confident there was something important Inquisitor Jex told them before leaving Scintilla...but he can’t quite recall it.+++

[20:21] * +Grendel` follows along, waiting until we're well away from the manager. "We should inform the others as soon as possible."
[20:23] <+Mira_Atella> "We'll have to find them first, all we know is the building, not what room, where to meet, or anything else."
[20:24] <+Felucia> (pertty sure I ahd said somthign about meetign either outsdie the hotel or in a restauraunt or somthing lol)
[20:24] <+Mira_Atella> (( nope, that was why Mira was so pissed when Felucia walked off ))
[20:25] <@BradGM> ((The other 3 can talk to..or would you guys prefer another room?))
[20:25] <+Lazerus_Grim> (("Elana, Lazerus, you come with me right now, Mira and Grendel you come seperately and meet us out front in about a hour." so yep, she did))

[20:27] * +Grendel` considers the flophouse, his expression hidden beneath the respirator.
[20:27] * +Lazerus_Grim sits in a chair after his rant at Felucia, thinking it possibly should have waited until after the mission, and scratches his head, sure that Jex said something important.
[20:27] * +Mira_Atella opens the door to their room and steps inside, looking immediately for other ways in or out.
[20:28] <+Elana> ((does the suite have a shrine? :P))
[20:28] <+Felucia> (yes its that big heart shaped bed)
[20:28] <@BradGM> Your room, is a somewhat clean room, with dusty sheets, an uneven table and chair, with a small crassy bathroom with a rusting bath.

[20:29] <@BradGM> From this hiehgt, no

[20:30] <@BradGM> Mira, there is a small meter high guiotille window half as wide giving into a brick wall 5 meters across the alley
[20:31] <+Mira_Atella> "Well, at least there's only one way someone can get in. Though I doubt we'll be here much."

[20:36] <+Grendel`> "Where the others went?"
[20:36] * +Mira_Atella peers at him oddly, "We were standing on the other side of the street from it, and watched them go inside. Your wiring okay?"
[20:37] <@BradGM> Lazerus recalls Inquisitor Jex's words before going in the teleportarium.
[20:38] <+Grendel`> ((Ah, I thought they were slightly further away than that))
[20:38] <+Felucia> (I thought we were further too lol)
[20:38] <@BradGM> ((You're 3 blocks away form it, enar the poorer side of town))
[20:38] * +Lazerus_Grim while sitting in his now favorite chair the light goes on. He will wait to share his revelation until the group is all together.
[20:39] <+Mira_Atella> (( the lady at the place said the hotel was right by the bus station, so we must have been either across the street or in front of it when you guys went in, right? ))
[20:39] * +Felucia heads out of the hotel lookign around for a not too high quality restaurant but still not a total dive.
[20:40] * +Grendel` checks the time again on his chrono.
[20:41] <@BradGM> You find a middle of the road diner right in the bus depot,mostly used by bus drivers, the buses'technomats and the long distance travellers.
[20:41] * +Felucia looks for any other place around there
[20:41] <@BradGM> Grendel, you still got 15 minutes before leaving to meet up with the others
[20:43] * +Grendel` glances around and checks to see if the water works. "15 minutes until we have to leave."
[20:44] <@BradGM> Grendle, it works, but it seems a little thick.
[20:45] * +Grendel` considers the water for a moment before turning it off.
[20:45] * +Mira_Atella nods. "We might as well go then, grab a place not right out front but where we can still see them when they come out."
[20:45] * +Elana opens her eyes, then gets up from her position. 1"Very well." 6The Sister steps to one of the windows, examining the scenery outside.
[20:47] * +Grendel` nods to the assassin, motioning for her to lead the way.
[20:49] * +Mira_Atella leaves the room and heads out of the flop house, taking her time and not walking too quickly back towards the destination.
[20:50] * +Grendel` follows along, mechadendrites pulled in as closely as possible.
[20:51] * +Felucia heads to meet mira and grendel.
[20:52] * +Lazerus_Grim glances as his chrono before standing and heading for the door. 1"Coming, Dead?"
[20:52] <@BradGM> Mira and grendle, you see the flow of workers leaving the workers' habs and proceed to buses and elevated trains to their daily work. You see a few boarded up buildings as well.

[21:56] <+Felucia> (np thoguh)
[21:56] * +Mira_Atella stays there a few moments longer, waiting to see if any of the cars slow down or show interest in their actions.
[21:56] * +Grendel` shrugs. "We didn't mean to come here. We just picked a random direction to wander in, and found the place."
[21:57] * +Felucia looks for the back door that all restaurants have.
[21:58] <@BradGM> You go into the alley, where a door leading to the kitchen/back stage area for the entertainers is located and pad-locked.
[21:58] * +Felucia tries to pick the lock.
[21:59] <+Felucia> !perc 40
[21:59] <+DiceServitor> Felucia rolls [ 40% (or Lower) : 12 18%, Success ]
[22:00] <+Lazerus_Grim> "All well and good, but Inquisitorial pressence has been established here in New Haven, and anyone looking for us knows where to come."
[22:00] <@BradGM> ((ok, you had a -20 because you had no tools for the job))
[22:01] <+Felucia> (still a sucess lol)
[22:01] <+Elana> "Indeed. Though even if they would not know, it is quite possible that word will spread, driving all kinds of miscreants into hiding - possibly including our mission objective."
[22:02] <@BradGM> You work the pad-lock and manage to unlock it after wiglging at it wiht your knife and some hair pins
[22:03] * +Grendel` glances around. "Hopefully we do not alert the local Arbites."
[22:04] <@BradGM> Grendel, roll logic
[22:04] <+Felucia> "well at least we dont have to break the door down" takes the pad off the door.
[22:04] <+Grendel`> !perc 63
[22:04] <+DiceServitor> Grendel` rolls [ 63% (or Lower) : 04 76%, Fail ]
[22:04] <@BradGM> whoever got it can roll it as well; so that means eeveryone
[22:04] <+Grendel`> fate
[22:04] <+Grendel`> !perc 63
[22:04] <+DiceServitor> Grendel` rolls [ 63% (or Lower) : 12 34%, Success ]
[22:04] <+Elana> "If we do, I'm sure at least one of us has already made their acquaintance, so this should be easy to explain." 6The Sister Militant refrains from looking at anyone in particular.
[22:04] <@BradGM> ((or no need ot roll it then!))
[22:05] <+Mira_Atella> (( Mira isn't in there, so no need for me to do it yet, still waiting to see what you say about the cars ;) ))
[22:06] <+Felucia> !perc 16
[22:06] <+DiceServitor> Felucia rolls [ 16% (or Lower) : 12 3%, Success ]
[22:06] <@BradGM> Grendel, such low-teck worlds might lower the checking by local enforcers, not like a hive security potential
[22:07] * +Grendel` sighs and shrugs. "Very well."
[22:07] <@BradGM> It take a minute or two to go there and unlock the lock Mira, and no car or shaky person seems to step forth and attack or clsoe in on the alley or yourself
[22:08] * +Mira_Atella waits until it looks mostly clear and slips in the alley with the others. "I don't think anyone noticed us, or at least no one that cared."
[22:09] <+Felucia> "well thats good then" opens hte door and waves them in.
[22:09] <+Grendel`> "Bring the padlock in with you."
[22:10] <+Felucia> "yes of course" pockets it.
[22:11] * +Grendel` steps inside, glancing around.
[22:12] * +Mira_Atella walks in, letting her eyes adjust before moving too far.
[22:12] * +Felucia moves in once everone is in and quietly closes the door looking for a locking device on the inside.
[22:12] <@BradGM> You enter into a small corridor that cut left inot the entertainer's lodigngs and straight into the kitchen. Theres seems to still be power by the humming of engines.
[22:13] * +Felucia goes to cehck the fridges see if thers any food left thats not gone bad
[22:13] * +Elana remains somewhat wary as she looks around, even though the facility is supposed to be abandoned.
[22:13] <@BradGM> The Padlock was pretty much the only sure locking mechanicsm on the door; else you simply close it and let the handle invisible inner workings do the lokcing itself
[22:13] * +Grendel` walks down to the entertainer's lodging, looking for a room big enough to handle them all.
[22:14] <@BradGM> Most of the furniture both int he ktihcne and in the lodges are turned upside down all over the palce, as someone was searching for something and didn't bother about the worklaod the maid would have
[22:16] * +Grendel` shrugs, "This looks well enough to plan for now. I suggest we check around quickly for anyone else, then discuss our plans quickly."
[22:16] <@BradGM> You see that the place got probabaly searched by the Arbites.
[22:16] * +Lazerus_Grim manifests Sense Presence.
[22:16] <+Lazerus_Grim> 1d10+5
[22:16] <+DiceServitor> Lazerus_Grim rolls 1D10+5: 2 +5 = 7
[22:16] * +Mira_Atella stays in her position, taking her time to cast her gaze around the room and its connections.
[22:16] <@BradGM> ((just, i think?))
[22:17] <+Lazerus_Grim> yep
[22:17] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((yep*))
[22:17] <@BradGM> You feel the people on the strret coming in and out of your range, but from what you estimate as the building's placement seems empty short of oyu and a few, small lifeforms, possibly rats.
[22:19] <+Lazerus_Grim> "We're good, there's no one here." 6He says as he sits down.
[22:19] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((releasing Sense Presence))
[22:19] <@BradGM> You flip a few chairs upright and sit**
[22:19] <+Felucia> "looks like its been closed for a few days to a week nothing in the fridge is very fresh only frozen food can be eaten"
[22:19] <+Grendel`> "So are we ready now?"
[22:20] * +Mira_Atella nods and moves further in to the room, finding a place to sit down. "I have light if we really need it, but unless it is really important, I think we can deal with a few bruised shins."
[22:21] * +Elana sighs, sitting down. 1"Very well. Let us talk, shall we?"

[22:27] <+Grendel`> "So we need to find out where the cogitator engine is being held, retrieve it, and get picked up."
[22:30] * +Mira_Atella nods "And until we know where it is, we can't make much of a plan."
[22:30] * +Elana nods. 1"We should begin reconnaisance aimed at the governor's palace as soon as possible."
[22:31] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Or perhaps our contact here in New Haven might have some ideas."
[22:33] <@BradGM> ((dun dun DUUUNNN))
[22:33] <+Grendel`> "The contact?"
[22:33] * +Mira_Atella nods to Grim, "The more information we have the better. If we rush this, we'll end up with nothing, captured, or worse. And I don't think Jex will bother with us again if we fail."
[22:34] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Gettok Spinlop, a storeowner here in New Haven. He's supposed to meet us at the spaceport in a little under seven days from now."
[22:35] <+Elana> "Ah, the warp distortion... I hope you do not suggest we remain idle for the time being?"
[22:38] * +Lazerus_Grim softly laughs at the prospect. 1"God-Emperor, no. I'd rather impress Jex with our speedy completion and return."
[22:38] * +Grendel` shrugs. "We can try to contact him ahead of time."
[22:38] <+Mira_Atella> "Wouldn't that make him suspicious?"
[22:39] <+Grendel`> "We have means of identifying ourselves."
[22:40] <+Felucia> "well didnt we arrive here a week early? mabye he doesnt even know about hour mission yet"
[22:40] * +Elana blinks at that possibility.
[22:42] <+Mira_Atella> "That could be true. We have to be careful with the time mechanics of what happened. If the wrong person knows that we're in two places at once.. bad science stuff happens I'm sure."
[22:42] <+Grendel`> "I am sure this happens often across the Imperium."
[22:43] <+Felucia> "thats also why I made such a extended stay at the hotel, but look at it this way, if people expect us to arrive a week from now people who have been here for a week already wont be suspected
[22:44] <+Mira_Atella> "Again, unless we're recognized as being in both places at once. I know it's a small chance, and one we'll likely need to take to avoid sitting around for a week, but still something to keep in mind."
[22:45] <+Felucia> "well we know our mission, jsut avoid anyone who might know later we are here adn find the information we need withy any luck we will finish the mission in one day and look all the better for it"
[22:47] * +Grendel` shakes his head. "The Imperium is well aware of the problems of Warp travel. We should contact the agent on planet, get our information, and plan."
[22:50] <+Elana> "If this option is available, by all means. The sooner we get to something, the better we will all feel."
[22:50] <+Felucia> (what about the temperal prime directive)
[22:51] <+Mira_Atella> (( Temporal prime directive be damned, we want to get home and be given a cookie! ))
[22:51] <+Elana> (>.<)
[22:51] <@BradGM> ((yeah let me handle the fun of time warp))
[22:52] <+Grendel`> "Then let us find out where the contact is, some of us will go, explain, and get the information needed."
[22:58] * +Grendel` glances around and shrugs. "Very well, I will go find a dataport someplace and find out where the shopkeeper is."
