[20:47] <@BradGM> +++Thought of the Day: Do Not Ask Why You Serve, But How.”+++
[20:47] <@BradGM> +++Location: Gun-cutter ES-H5D attached to the Eternal Sunset, ETA 7 minutes before dock, Modra Outer Atmosphere, Hazeroth Abyss.+++
[20:47] <@BradGM> +++1402 Hours- Ship Time+++
[20:48] <@BradGM> +++Killing the remaining attacker, Mockingbird went to get their unknown assailants’ vehicle out of the ditch. Grendel achieved little success despite reciting the correct litanies and prayers, and having the others to help push did not help until the Tech-Priest acted on a blasphemous trick from Parlow’s questionable driving techniques and managed to get the car cleared.
[20:48] <@BradGM> As they approached the Spaceport, the heavy in/out traffic of goods leaving the planet slowed their approach enough to allow Mira and Grendel to spot military sentinels standing watch and soldiers searching vehicles. Mockingbird got in touch with the awaiting gun-cutter and drove into a field containing an abandoned barn.
[20:48] <@BradGM> From there they let Parlow leave before setting the old building on fire to signal the pick-up, the device in their possession, with almost no trace of them left behind. The take-off was quick and the Acolytes quickly found themselves in the Void.+++

[20:49] * +Mira_Atella sits in silence with her eyes closed as they travel.
[20:50] * +Lazerus_Grim is glad to be off that rock, and now just wants to get home and finish the job.
[20:51] * +Grendel slumps down in his seat, his wounds bothering him as we leave the planet behind, still giving off a faint charred smell.
[20:52] <@BradGM> You dock into the Eternal Sunset's small shuttle bay. The ancient mechanism for the blast doors rolls up the passageway into the void and atmosphere and gravity is added into the bay.
[20:53] <@BradGM> The door opens and the Armsmen and craft crew exit and complete post-landing procedures and rituals.
[20:53] * +Lazerus_Grim grabs the case that holds the device and disembarks, heading off towards the cell's quarters.
[20:54] * +Mira_Atella opens her eyes, scanning the movements of everyone else before standing and making shadow movements to those of Lazerus.
[20:55] <@BradGM> As you exit the bay, Captain Vouleur and a small security detarchment turn the corner in frond of you "Ah, it is safe to assume that everything went perfectly with your endeavour?"
[20:56] * +Grendel murmurs thanks to the Machine spirit of the gun-cutter for transporting them safely as he disembarks, gathering his gear and making sure the xenos aftifact is removed from the gun-cutter.
[20:56] * +Lazerus_Grim nods to the captain. 1"We have our cargo and appear to have made a clean getaway."
[20:58] <@BradGM> Vouleur "A most rejoicing news Mister Grim. I have taken the liberty to prepare a Statis field in the Ship's secutiy Vault, It will be well protected during our warp voyage."
[20:58] * +Mira_Atella looks at the captain somewhat curiously.
[20:58] <+Mira_Atella> (( if you do what I think you're going to do.. you should be shot :P ))
[20:59] * +Grendel considers. "That would be acceptable Captain."
[20:59] <@BradGM> ((what do you think I'm tihkning?))
[20:59] <+Mira_Atella> (( that the captain is going to try and kill us and take the item ))
[21:00] <@BradGM> ((nooo))
[21:00] <@BradGM> Vouleur "Certianly. Please follow me."
[21:02] * +Grendel moves carefully, following the Captain, allowing the psyker to carry the artifact for now.
[21:02] * +Mira_Atella looks a bit cautious, but also looks very tired, and follows.
[21:02] <@BradGM> He takes you with his armsmen, escorting you really, to the ships' Vaults. There amongst the many, many items of lost worlds, ancient conquest or myserious trade is an open statis field, with a crew of tech-priests and technomats working on the cvontrols and wires
[21:03] <+Mira_Atella> (( oh well then let's hijack the ship and take all these goodies lol ))
[21:04] * +Grendel looks around in interest, examining the machinery despite his wounds, listening to the tech-priests and technomats as they attend to the technology.
[21:04] * +Lazerus_Grim steps up and hands the case to the lead tech-priest of the field.
[21:05] <@BradGM> He takes the case, not even bothering asking what it is or why it is in some travel case, and place it into the statis field. After a ritual of a few minutes, the field actives, locking the Eldar Device behind an impregnamable field.
[21:06] <+Mira_Atella> (( in some travel case that looks like it has been through hell? ))
[21:06] <@BradGM> ((or went in a car crash at least))
[21:06] * +Lazerus_Grim turns to the captain and the rest of the team. 1"Let us be off for the Tricorn Palance immediately."
[21:07] <+Mira_Atella> (( hehe yeah I was figuring it's all scratched, dented, got smoke on it from the fire, maybe a bullet ricochet or two lol ))
[21:08] <@BradGM> Vouleur "This is not my first hit and run, Mister Grim; We are already underway to the warp coordonates. I have also taken the liberty of jamming certain planetary communicationsduring your pick-up."
[21:08] * Elana (~Katsu@86-42-173-154-dynamic.b-ras3.chf.cork.eircom.net) has joined #Shadowrun
[21:08] * BradGM sets mode: +v Elana
[21:08] <+Mira_Atella> (( woot! ))
[21:08] <@BradGM> ((hey))
[21:09] <+Lazerus_Grim> "I did not mean to imply you were born yesterday, good Sir. I am only very eager to be done with all this."
[21:09] <+Mira_Atella> "Hopefully they're already confused enough on the planet that we shouldn't have any issues. They were focused so much on the space port, our escape route may have gone unnoticed."
[21:09] * +Mira_Atella she gives a nod and turns away from the vault area.
[21:10] <@BradGM> Vouleur "Of course Mister Grim, no wrong thought intended; we shall be to the warp coordonates in 6 days."
[21:10] <+Grendel> "It will depend on how sensitive the machine spirits of the augurs are."
[21:11] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Very good, Captain. Now if you'll excuse me, this old man needs rest and a shower." 6With that, Lazerus heads off towards his room.
[21:12] <@BradGM> Vouleur "You are dismissed Mister Grim."
[21:12] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((he dismissed me? interesting....))
[21:13] <+Mira_Atella> (( hehe, I was wondering about that too.. figured it was habit, since he was kind of asked ))
[21:13] <@BradGM> ((well, you are on *his* ship after all))
[21:14] * +Grendel makes inquiries with the Tech-priests to find the best medicae bay for a tech-priest.
[21:14] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((but i'm a gosh darn agent of the Inquisition! that mean's i'm above everybody!))
[21:15] <@BradGM> Vouleur "Now, my duties must take me to the bridge."
[21:15] * +Mira_Atella heads back to their quarters.
[21:15] <@BradGM> ((yeah well, you're not inquistors, and he knows this.))
[21:15] <+Mira_Atella> (( get rid of my fatigue noooooooow lol ))
[21:15] <+Elana> ((Hey all!))
[21:16] <@BradGM> ((hey))
[21:16] <+Mira_Atella> (( was the ride to the ship long enough to get rid of the fatigue? ))
[21:16] <+Mira_Atella> (( about time womangz ))
[21:16] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((it occurs to me, i can get rid of Fatigue if i know you have it))
[21:16] <+Mira_Atella> (( ;) ))
[21:17] <+Elana> (( he tells us NOW :P ))
[21:17] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((and hey Elana))
[21:17] <@BradGM> ((everyone is too proud to admit fatigue!))
[21:17] <+Mira_Atella> (( I thought about getting meditation, just because an assassin would probably need to do something to focus before killing someone ))
[21:17] <+Lazerus_Grim> (( my bad. i kid of glance over that power))
[21:17] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((kind*))
[21:18] <+Mira_Atella> (( Brad is avoiding answering :P ))
[21:18] <+Mira_Atella> (( He likes to see us suffer ))
[21:18] <@BradGM> You travel 7 days, having lost a day aking a long turn around a gas giant to evade augers.
[21:18] <+Mira_Atella> (( *cheers* ))
[21:18] <@BradGM> ((what?))
[21:19] * +Lazerus_Grim spends the time resting, healing, and writing up his mission reports.
[21:19] <@BradGM> ((ok Lazerus))
[21:19] <@BradGM> ((the rest of you doing what?))
[21:19] <@BradGM> Lazerus, roll Literacy+20 as you woudl ahve access to autot-quills and writing equipment onboard.
[21:20] * +Mira_Atella spends her time the way she did their last trip, wandering the ship and observing habits and schedules.

[21:21] * +Lazerus_Grim writes a report with lots of grammer and spelling mistakes, and even some fragments of sentences.
[21:21] * +Grendel spends the time in the medicae bay, recovering.
[21:21] * +Elana remains in seclusion for many hours a day as she devotes time to meditation as well as prayers, chiefly for safe travels through the warp, though the Sister will also file a report of her own.
[21:21] <@BradGM> Write literacy+20 as well Elana
[21:22] <@BradGM> mira, if you mingle wiht teh crew, roll charm, if you jsut sneak around, roll concealment+10 as the ship is a real maze of shadows and secret passages.
[21:22] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((how long is the warp trip and subsequent in-system travel going to be?))

[21:26] <+Mira_Atella> (( Oh no.. he let Buffy in? *gasp* We're doomed! ))
[21:26] <@BradGM> Mira, you were well abled to get a few voidmen to notice you until they were a feet or so from you.
[21:27] <+Elana> ((wasn't 7 Tzeentch's number? :P))
[21:27] <@BradGM> The Warp trip is rather normal and uneventful; weird dreams, sprits running about, gravity chainging in ship sections without warning
[21:27] <+Elana> ((lol))
[21:28] <+Grendel> ((7 is nurgle. Tzeentch is 9))
[21:28] <@BradGM> THe crew appears to be more or less affected by it; they are even really content that it's that smooth going from the Azeroth Abyss.
[21:28] <+Elana> ((also, *slaps mira for the bad pun*))
[21:28] <+Mira_Atella> (( *walks on the floor* *bzzz* "Oh hey, I'm on the ceiling.. fun!" ))
[21:28] * +Grendel remains in the medicae bay, healing from the conflict.
[21:29] <+Mira_Atella> (( hehe.. bad puns are the only kind of puns ))
[21:29] <+Elana> ((it gets more fun when I say good morning to you from the "roof"))
[21:29] <@BradGM> ((You got another wekk to do something else, or do it again))
[21:29] <+Mira_Atella> (( I can honestly say I've never heard someone make a good pun. The whole point of a pun, is that they are bad ))
[21:29] <+Elana> ((true ... true ...))
[21:30] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((/me sees how many psychic abilities he can manifest within a meter of the sister))
[21:30] <+Mira_Atella> (( is there a bar/catina on this boat? ))
[21:30] * +Elana maintains her daily prayer schedule, though she can now be seen attending the ship's own chapel again, joining the crew in mass.
[21:30] <+Mira_Atella> (( cantina* ))
[21:30] <@BradGM> Elana, you write a throught report about the obvious witchcraft present at the Garisson and went in good details pretty much all the way.
[21:30] <@BradGM> ((there's a giant mess hall, yes))
[21:31] <+Elana> ((*sings* ... burn it to the ground ...))
[21:31] * +Mira_Atella spends the remaining week, when not wandering, trying to be social with the crew.
[21:32] <+Elana> ((none of you is joining the mass then? baaad subjects :P))
[21:32] * +Lazerus_Grim flagellates every morning before mingling with the command crew, utilizing his psychic abilities when he so desires.
[21:32] <@BradGM> ((hmm..well Mira, you can roll a social skill, like charm, or carouse to drink with them))
[21:33] <+Mira_Atella> (( mwahaha I have carouse, for some reason.. maybe Bradon.. ))
[21:33] <+Elana> ((considering her looks, it's her who should roll willpower -against- charm and carouse :P))
[21:33] <+Mira_Atella> !dhroll 26
[21:33] <+Servitor> Mira_Atella: 97 Failure by 7 degrees!

[21:33] <+Servitor> Mira_Atella: 50 Failure by 2 degrees!
[21:34] * +Grendel spends his week mingling with the tech-priests, and looking over the technology of the ship he didn't get to examine on the first trip.
[21:34] <+Elana> (( so now it's only -2- crewmen you wake up with ))
[21:34] <@BradGM> ((hm..roll WP-10 Mira))

[21:36] <@BradGM> ((gimme a sec, let me get my book))
[21:36] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((i was thinking about telling them grand stories about my daring adventures planetside - Deceive))
[21:36] <+Elana> ((man, you totally make me want to play my Rogue Trader character again :P))

[21:37] <+Servitor> BradGM: 50 Success by 2 degrees!
[21:40] <+Mira_Atella> (( *waits for the mother of all hangovers to befall Mira* ))
[21:40] <@BradGM> As you drink and try to mingle a little with the crew, your resistance to alcohol doesn't seems to hold against Voidsec. You get drunk rather quickly and you begin to wail on whoever's in your range of sight and reach.
[21:40] <+Mira_Atella> (( lol she's beating people up? ))
[21:40] <+Elana> (( I think she will be getting beaten up shortly :P ))
[21:40] <@BradGM> Those that are outside your deadly, drunken grasped are being attacked at ranged by your insulting verbal lexemes."
[21:40] <+Mira_Atella> (( Yeah, really.. ))
[21:41] <+Mira_Atella> (( woo may be drunk, but still verbally abusive! ))
[21:41] <+Elana> ((someone knock her out before she starts spouting secrets! :P))
[21:42] <+Mira_Atella> (( oh she wouldn't do that ))
[21:42] <@BradGM> ((yeha that would be rolling a 100))
[21:42] <+Mira_Atella> (( she just kills people in a drunken stupor ))

[21:43] <+Servitor> Lazerus_Grim: 12 Success by 3 degrees!
[21:44] <@BradGM> It doens,t take long for Mira to get clubbed behind the head and get up in the brig
[21:45] <+Elana> ((I assume one of us will be notified of this ... ah ... incident?))
[21:45] <+Elana> ((probably Laz as he's closer to the officers))
[21:46] <@BradGM> Lazerus, your witty charm doens,t seems to impress the captain that much, but he still seems intrested by your descriptive and tall-telling, the younger officers and command officers seems all capivated by you
[21:46] <@BradGM> ((I would say that after lazerus' roll, he woudl have learned about it, possibly by the officer who clubbed you))
[21:47] <+Mira_Atella> (( hahaha ))
[21:47] <+Lazerus_Grim> (( now i've got them right where i want them....MUTINY!))
[21:47] * +Grendel continues to wander through the machinery, examining the stasis chambers.
[21:47] <+Mira_Atella> (( do eeeet ))
[21:48] <@BradGM> ((yeha in the warp too, heh..))
[21:48] <+Elana> ((ooh, now that you mention it - guarding the stasis chamber is also a neat pastime for Elana, I'll add a few visits to my daily schedule .. checking up on the security measures etc))
[21:48] * +Lazerus_Grim excuses himself from his enthralling tales long enough to go down to thr brig and see Mira. However, even with his newfound status with the officers, he can only cut her sentence short by two days. Three, with good behavior.
[21:49] * +Mira_Atella explains to Lazerus that she was only trying to work on her social interactions and that crew members took advantage.
[21:50] <+Elana> ((XD))
[21:50] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Best to wait until you're trained in such seductions."
[21:50] <+Mira_Atella> "Until I learn how to drink like a 300 pound marine and not succumb? That sounds like fun training."
[21:51] * +Lazerus_Grim shrugs. 1"More time with Bradon, that's my plan."
[21:51] <+Mira_Atella> "Good thing he likes me, and I don't lose his weapons."
[21:52] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Yeah, he's going to have a field day with Elana."
[21:53] <@BradGM> After a week of warp travel you Arrive into the Scintilla system
[21:54] <+Mira_Atella> (( I don't think I've ever said it, but I always found the name funny since one of my favorite bands is called I:Scintilla ))
[21:54] <+Elana> ((*g*))
[21:57] <@BradGM> The Eternal Sunset makes for Scintilla Prime, the massive Space Station/space port/space docks/refinery hovering over the Planet.
[21:58] <+Grendel> ((Sorry, back, got dragged away suddenly))
[22:00] * +Lazerus_Grim ensures that Mira is released from the brig and prepares to leave this ship, gathering all his gear together.
[22:00] <+Grendel> !dhroll 73
[22:00] <+Servitor> Grendel: 27 Success by 4 degrees!
[22:00] * +Mira_Atella goes about her business as if nothing has happened.
[22:01] <@BradGM> You get called by Captain Vouleur to the terciary Tactical Conference Room B
[22:01] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((you being all of the cell?))
[22:02] <@BradGM> ((yes))
[22:02] * +Elana makes her way to the conference chambers, feeling somewhat less brooding now that the vessel has finally exited the accursed Warp-space.
[22:02] * +Mira_Atella steps in to the room and waits for the others.
[22:02] <@BradGM> Mockingbird get called by Captain Vouleur to the terciary Tactical Conference Room B
[22:02] <@BradGM> ((might as well use the codename))
[22:02] * +Lazerus_Grim sighs at all these formalities and leaves his gear in his room, making his way to the conference room.
[22:03] <@BradGM> ((you would know that room in near the vaults, so the logical place to be beofre taking the device and leave))
[22:03] <@BradGM> ((you were on the ship about a month's time in total and walking about))
[22:03] * +Grendel gathers his gear together and begins to make his way to the Tactical Conference room.
[22:04] <@BradGM> ((just saying))
[22:05] * +Grendel checks to make sure he's at Room B instead of A or C. That would just be embarrassing.
[22:07] <@BradGM> Captain Vouleur is waiting there, with Inquisitor Jex on the Holo Pojector.
[22:07] * +Grendel finds a place out of the way where he can study the Inquisitor and the holo Projector, nodding slightly to the image.
[22:09] * +Lazerus_Grim bows slightly to the inquisitor and stands at-ease.
[22:09] <+Elana> ((worst case, we'll ask us a way through ;))
[22:10] * +Elana enters last, though not much later after Lazerus. Her eyes, emitting an expression of surprise for a moment before reasserting their calculating state, immediately focus on the Inquisitor, mustering the Captain and her companions for mere seconds.
[22:10] <@BradGM> Jex "Mockingbird, I see you are still alive."
[22:11] <@BradGM> Jex "I expect your task complete."
[22:11] * +Grendel wonders if our survival was unexpected. "Of course."
[22:11] * +Mira_Atella doesn't give any kind of visual response, listening and letting the others speak.
[22:12] <+Elana> "There were ... difficulties. But we have secured the device."
[22:15] <+Lazerus_Grim> "However, Inquisitor, we were unable to determine any link between the Dark Eldar and Modra. I may well have just been a random attack by misguided xenos filth."
[22:16] * +Elana glances at Lazerus for a moment before continueing. 1"Or the xenos have deliberately deposited this abomination on the planet to draw the attention of the Ruinous Powers"6, she maintains with a stern look. 1"There was corruption at the garrison."
[22:17] <@BradGM> Jex "Corruption you say?!"
[22:17] <+Mira_Atella> (( ROFL ))
[22:17] <+Lazerus_Grim> !dhroll 26
[22:17] <+Servitor> Lazerus_Grim: 13 Success by 1 degree!
[22:17] * +Lazerus_Grim instantly knows what Elana is talking about.
[22:18] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((Logic roll to see if i would connect the pieces))
[22:18] <@BradGM> ((sure))
[22:18] <+Grendel> "There were some suggestions that the Xenos may have been taking advantage of the..." he pauses as Elana speaks and choose different words, "Of the confusion instigated by all the groups fighting."
[22:20] <@BradGM> Jex "A very grim turn of event. Captain Vouleur, ready your teleportarium if you may; It is time to complete your assignement.
[22:21] <+Elana> "I fear we were witnesses to the veil between our world and the Warp drawing thin, even ripping. There were ... strange phenomena ... our own weapons shed bled as if some invisible force would have struck them to prevent us from pursueing our righteous mission. I have seen it with my own eyes!"
[22:21] * PixelScum (~PixelScum@ip98-177-175-82.ph.ph.cox.net) has joined #Shadowrun
[22:21] * +Mira_Atella gives a look to Elana suggesting her concern for the mental well-being of the Sister.
[22:22] <@BradGM> ((hahaha))
[22:22] * +Elana 's voice grows somewhat quieter: 1"We can only pray we were lucky enough to have escaped corruption ourselves. I suggest three weeks of quarantine upon our return to the Tricorne."
[22:22] <+Mira_Atella> (( Mira didn't use a gun in there, so she didn't see any of it lol ))

[22:25] <+Mira_Atella> (( Mira is writing that you all inhaled oil fumes and were tripping balls ))
[22:25] <@BradGM> Jex "We shall discuss this in person. Jex Out."
[22:25] <+Elana> "Religious dist-..."6, the Sister begins in anger at the Inquisitor's accusation, but refrains from finishing her outburst, instead allowing the Tech-Priest to continue.
[22:26] <+Elana> ((lol @ Mira))
[22:26] * +Lazerus_Grim makes a mental note to add to his report where he thinks Elana is confused and recommend immediate rectification of the situation....by whatever means necessary.
[22:28] * +Grendel shakes his head and adjusts his gear, thinking there will be much to explain. "A trip to the statis fields and the Teleportarium field is in order I think, Captain."
[22:28] <@BradGM> Vouleur "If you are all ready.." *He leaves the room and into the vaults, where tech-priest and technomats arrives to work on the statis field.
[22:30] * +Grendel follows, watching closely as the Tech-Priests work, noting the subharmonic and the binary cant used to appease the machine spirits of such a exotic machine.
[22:30] * +Mira_Atella follows behind the others, keeping a bit of distance.
[22:30] <@BradGM> After a few minutes of rituals, the statis field drops, adn the Tech-Priest get your item, giving it back to Lazerus.
[22:31] * +Elana remains nearby now, seemingly very watchful - as if the device could spring to life at any moment, releasing hordes of daemonic beasts.
[22:31] <+Mira_Atella> (( is it a pokeball? ))
[22:32] <@BradGM> ((it's in a grizzled travel case))
[22:32] <+Mira_Atella> (( lol nevermind.. ))
[22:32] <@BradGM> Vouleur "Now let us gather your items and let us make way to the teleportarium."
[22:33] * +Grendel hefts his luggage. "I am ready already."
[22:33] * +Lazerus_Grim receives the case and retrieves his gear from his room. A few minutes later he meets the group outside the teleportarium.
[22:33] <+Elana> ((images in my mind .. :P))
[22:33] <@BradGM> Lazerus, you are escorted by armsmen, for your own protection, of course.
[22:34] <@BradGM> ((since everyone seems to be eager tow rite reports, you could write one on the fly, but it's literacy-10

[22:34] <+Elana> ((wow))
[22:35] <+Mira_Atella> (( no no.. that's fine.. she can wait ;) ))
[22:35] <+Elana> ((reminds me of my school days where I'd do homework in the mensa))
[22:35] <@BradGM> It got well adjusted; even corrected a few mistkaes and phrase structure
[22:35] <+Mira_Atella> (( she has to make sure "tripping balls" is expressed properly.. writing it on the fly would lose something in the translation ))
[22:36] <+Grendel> ((heh))
[22:36] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((i was....trippin balls. so i decided to hop on my buzz grinder....))
[22:36] * +Elana does not have much to carry aside from her wargear, soon proceeding to the teleportarium. Upon seeing the platform the Sister grimaces a little, well remembering the weird effects of her first encounter with the device.
[22:36] <@BradGM> You are all back to the Teleportarium, The ancient machine hummss as it's capacitor loads up with energy for your transfer.
[22:36] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((does she have her chest?))
[22:36] <+Mira_Atella> (( I'm sure someone has a hold of it ))
[22:37] * +Lazerus_Grim takes a deep breath, preparing for the trip this time.
[22:37] * +Grendel steps up onto the platform, proud and privilaged to be transported by such a device.
[22:37] <@BradGM> Vouleur "Well Mockingbird, it seems things went quite well for us in this. Perhaps we shall meet again Emperor-willing."

[22:38] <+Grendel> ((lol))
[22:38] * +Mira_Atella moves towards the machine and takes her place.
[22:38] * +Lazerus_Grim salutes the military man. 1"You are a gracious host, Captain, we have enjoyed your company."
[22:38] <+Grendel> "The technology on this ship is amazing Captain, you should be proud."
[22:39] * +Elana inclines her head towards Vouleur. 1"Gratitude, Captain, for your hospitality and transport aboard the ship. May He watch over it on your further journeys." 6The Sister Militant finishes with a religious gesture.
[22:40] <@BradGM> The Machine illuminates and in a monent's time you appears in the teleportarium back at the tricorn, facing Jex and Captain Rother.
[22:40] * Drakkar (~PixelScum@ip98-177-175-82.ph.ph.cox.net) has joined #Shadowrun
[22:41] <@BradGM> Jex "Enjoyed your travels in the Warp, Mockingbird?"
[22:41] <+Grendel> ((Wait. Aren't we like..half a month early?))
[22:43] <@BradGM> ((hum..well since I leanred later that 1 day in the warp is 12 days in real space, that whole week sorta doens't work anymore..so let's make like everythign arranged itself in the end?))
[22:43] <+Grendel> ((Sounds good))
[22:43] * +Elana takes a moment to regain her bearings and adjust to the new environment. As she recognizes the pair waiting for them, the Sister crosses her arms at the wrists, fingers forming the wings of the Holy Aquila. 1"Inquisitor." 6She inclines her head slightly before continueing: 1"A journey through the Empyrean may be a lot, but not enjoyable. We merely did as ordered."
[22:44] <+Elana> ((I thought time in the warp is fluid, so there cannot be a conversion formula anyways?))
[22:44] * +Mira_Atella holds her hands together in front of her, watching the Inquisitor.
[22:44] * +Grendel forms his fingers into the sign of the cog, muttering his thanks for the speedy and safe transport by the Teleporterium. "Our trip was...eventful."
[22:46] <@BradGM> Jex "The Device?"
[22:46] * +Lazerus_Grim steps forwards and kneels, lifting the case to the Inquisitor.
[22:47] <@BradGM> He opens it, barely and glimpse inside, before closing it agian and taking it "Excellent work! Now to the next part of the operation! Follow!"
[22:47] <@BradGM> He leaves the room and in the great corridor awaits a small servitor controlled carry-person
[22:47] * +Elana steps forward without further response.
[22:48] * +Mira_Atella follows the others.
[22:48] * +Lazerus_Grim stands and follows.
[22:48] * +Grendel follows curiously, eyeing Elana's chest to see if she needs help with it again.
[22:49] <+Elana> ((:P))
[22:50] <@BradGM> The Inquisitor sits in the carry-person and after you all embark, programs it and it drives off.
[22:51] <@BradGM> Jex "Now what of that corruption you spoke of, sister?"
[22:51] <+Elana> ((lol, and here I thought that was for the artifact ... lazy bastard - also, now I have to think of a Dreadknight))
[22:53] * +Elana maintains a stern expression as she replies. 1"As you will remember from my preliminary report, there were psychic disturbances in the base we infiltrated. They occurred as we got closer to the artifact. Perhaps it is some sort of ... beacon, or a device that is capable of weakening the fabric between reality and Warp."
[22:53] <@BradGM> Jex "and is there existance of a final report?"
[22:54] <+Elana> "Naturally. I will forward a copy to your office."
[22:54] <@BradGM> Jex "I shall take it at this moment, Agent."
[22:56] * +Elana furrows her brows, hesitating for a moment as if she wanted to get into a staring contest with the Inquisitor. After an almost too long moment, the Sister reaches for a large leathery pocket on the side of her belt, which does not only contain some old-looking book but also a roll of parchment, which is promptly handed over to Jex.
[22:57] <+Elana> "I would welcome were you return the original to me, though a scriptor's copy would do as well."
[22:58] <@BradGM> He gives few quick glances to your report.
[22:58] <@BradGM> Jex "And you have all witnessed those phenomenas?"
[22:59] * +Mira_Atella arches a brow, "What phenomena are you speaking of?"
[22:59] * PixelScum (~PixelScum@ip98-177-175-82.ph.ph.cox.net) has joined #Shadowrun
[22:59] <+Elana> ((upon unrolling, the scroll turns out to be 4 pages of parchment, containing notes on the journey to the target destination, the Cell's plan, and its execution. emphasise is given on the occurrence of the aforementioned phenomena that happened within the base perimeter))
[23:01] <@BradGM> Jex "Let me see ..."Wood and steel weeping a corrupt blood"..., "howling, deamonic winds that projected me to the ground with brutal strength.."..
[23:01] <@BradGM> ((If you would recall, elana was shot to the head at this time and no one fell down but her. IIRC))
[23:01] * +Elana presses her lips together as the Inquisitor recaps the events, well remembering the experience.
[23:01] * +Grendel considers. "There were signs, yes. Machinery also acted oddly."
[23:02] <+Grendel> ((I remember the wind, though I wasn't knocked down by it))
[23:02] * +Mira_Atella takes a moment before answering, "I can't give any verification to those events, but I also can't say they didn't happen. A lot was going on at the time."
[23:03] <@BradGM> jex "Hmm..Lazerus, your thoughts on this?"
[23:03] <+Mira_Atella> "I personally didn't see either of those things, but I was a distance away from the others."
[23:04] * +Lazerus_Grim hesitates for a moment, unsure of what the inquisitor thinks he should do. 1"The sister's conclusions could very well be true."
[23:05] <+Elana> "It is the only explanation"6, she concludes.
[23:05] <+Elana> ((heh :P))
[23:05] <@BradGM> Jex "So you're saying that you did not see those phenomenas happening?"
[23:06] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Like Mira said, a lot was going on. I do seem to recall being knocked down by a strong wind, but the bleeding I cannot speak to." 6He says slowly, choosing his words carefully.
[23:06] * Drakkar (~PixelScum@ip98-177-175-82.ph.ph.cox.net) Quit (Ping timeout)
[23:06] <@BradGM> Jex "Or perhaps by some Happenstance you stumbled across then."
[23:07] <+Elana> "You must have seen some of this dark blood on my own person"6, Elana retorts, somewhat confused by the others' restraint.
[23:08] <@BradGM> Jex "The Eldar are very potent Psykers, no doutb their device as disturbed the natural order of things. I would not want it to happen agian and cuase more serious consequences."
[23:08] * +Mira_Atella turns towards the sister, "I was quite some distance from the rest of you, coming up behind the trooper."
[23:08] * +Lazerus_Grim sighs. 1"I can think of one other explanation, Sir. Do you think it wise to discuss at this time?"
[23:09] <+Grendel> "I believe I was on fire at the time."
[23:09] <+Elana> "The device needs to be handled with the utmost care, and there will have to be an inquisition into the purity of the garrison."
[23:09] <@BradGM> Jex "Of what matter is it, Lazerus?"
[23:11] * +Grendel looks curiously at the psyker.
[23:11] <+Lazerus_Grim> "My lord, the sister is unaware of this other possibility."
[23:11] <+Elana> ((*cracks knuckles*))
[23:12] * +Mira_Atella shifts her balance, leaning away from the others as the new subject is breached.
[23:12] * +Elana looks at the psyker as well now.
[23:12] <+Elana> "Make me aware, then"6, the Sororitas demands in a somewhat confused manner.
[23:13] <@BradGM> Jex looks at you Lazerus and seems to be able to read into your chain of thought "What?!?!? You mean she does not know aobut..hm.hmmhehehahahahahaha...."
[23:13] <+Elana> ((lol))
[23:13] * +Lazerus_Grim shakes his head at the inquisitor and takes a deep breath, preparing himself (manifesting Trusting Aura).
[23:14] <@BradGM> Jex "And no one told her anything?"

[23:14] <+Mira_Atella> (( hahaha he just about turned in to Kefka with that laugh ))
[23:15] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Sister Elana, there is the possibility that a psyker was present and those effects were side effects of his powers."
[23:15] * +Mira_Atella not content with leaning away, she takes a few nonchalant steps away from the group.
[23:16] <@BradGM> ((a few steps would mean jumping off the carry-person))
[23:16] * +Elana seems irritated. 1"You mean a Witch? I am aware that the Imperial Guard makes use of them, but surely not a Planetary Defense garrison?"
[23:16] <+Mira_Atella> (( tiny steps? ))
[23:16] <+Elana> ((lol, abandon ship Mira!))
[23:16] <@BradGM> ((heh..ok))
[23:17] * +Grendel lets out a mutter in binary.
[23:17] <+Mira_Atella> (( Hmm.. firey death from a Sister with a flamer.. or free fall plummet and splat.. decisions, decisions.. ))
[23:17] <+Lazerus_Grim> "You would do well to remember, Sister, that the Imperial Guard, as well as the Imperium at large, finds them incredibly useful. Even the Emperor is the most powerful of psykers."
[23:17] <@BradGM> Jex "Well then, I must admit I am surprised by this, rather impressive, Mockingbird, rather impressive. Not only she did not know a witch was present beside her at all times, but still fails to grasp at the fact that the Inquisition employs one-a many Sanctionned Psykers."
[23:18] * +Lazerus_Grim tuns on the inquisitor. 1"With all due respect, sir, may I settle this with the sister without interruption?"
[23:18] * Ribonizer (hehe@bas4-hull20-1177929233.dsl.bell.ca) Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[23:19] * +Elana 's head turns to Lazerus again, eyes flashing with anger. 1"How dare you spout such lies in these halls!"
[23:19] <+Mira_Atella> (( rofl.. and that was the last anyone saw of the one known as Lazerus Grim.. ))
[23:19] <@BradGM> Jex "Very Well, Lazerus, but I am right beside you; i do not want, nor need, a firefight in this place."
[23:20] <@BradGM> ((no one likes a stray bullet or bolt))
[23:20] * +Elana seems tensed, quite ready to spring into action like an armed bomb waiting for someone to push the trigger.
[23:21] * +Grendel glances around and wonders if the conveyance could've had slightly more room so he could get some distance from the two.
[23:21] * +Lazerus_Grim shakes his head. 1"My good sister, you are naive and uninformed as you've spent your live sheltered. I have seen worlds, systems, sectors; I know far more of this than you do. It is true. As evidence, it was only by the Emperor's psychic power that the navigator on our ship was able to guide us home."
[23:25] * +Elana 's voice takes on an icy tone, censure only being held in check by an ingrained ability to adhere to orders. For now. 1"I do not know who taught you such heresies. I am aware of the psyker's role in the Imperium, and of the God-Emperor's mercy towards them. I suggest you do not besmirch it with these ridiculous lies."
[23:27] <+Lazerus_Grim> "If that is all you will concede then I bid you keep that in mind, the mercy of the God-Emperor, whom you and I both serve, and that a psychic does have a role within the Imperium. I pray that those be enough to temper your wrath, fair Sister, for I know it to be great and terrible...."
[23:27] <+Lazerus_Grim> "The truth is...."
[23:28] <+Lazerus_Grim> 1d10
[23:28] <+Servitor> Lazerus_Grim: 2
[23:28] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((manifest Precognition))
[23:28] <+Lazerus_Grim> "I...am a Sanctioned Psyker."
[23:29] <+Elana> ((what effects do Precognition and Trusting Aura have again, in combination with the rolls you did? anything I should know?))
[23:30] <@BradGM> ((precognition is to help with parry/dodge tests, the other gives a +20 to interacting tests))
[23:31] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((Trusting Aura was up the whole time, hoping to soften her a bit. Precognition is in preparation for a fight))
[23:33] * +Elana blinks, taking a moment to process the newly revealed information. Given the shocking truth and her previously expressed contempt, her calm expression of pure surprise seems rather odd. 1"What are you saying?" 6Her voice gains in volume now. 1"All this time, and you saw fit to hide your mutation? Saw fit to endanger the mission and our very sanity? I should END you here and now for your insolence!"
[23:35] * +Mira_Atella realizes she can't step back any farther and decides it is time to speak up, "Sister.. please keep in mind that if it had not been for Lazerus, we would all be dead several times by now, yourself included. He's been indispensible as a part of our team."
[23:35] * +Lazerus_Grim speaks in a very quiet voice. "I saw fit to accomplish the Emperor's will as best I could within this group. My fear was that you and I would never reach unity. I strove to prove myself to you as a teammate first before revealing this gift. I apologize, but it was the best course of action I saw."
[23:37] * +Grendel checks to make sure he's not in the line of fire as he listens to Lazarus and his revelation.
[23:37] <+Elana> "Indispensible!" 6Her voice is booming now, she would be right at home in a chapel at this moment, riling up citizens for a mutant purge. 1"Has the Witch not admitted that these ... these phenomena were his own doing? Deliberate or undeliberate, both is unforgivable!"
[23:38] * +Elana points an armoured finger at Lazerus now, lowering her voice again as the realization befalls her. 1"You. You have corrupted me with your presence."
[23:39] <+Lazerus_Grim> "If I had corrupted you, sister, you would be aware of it."
[23:39] <+Mira_Atella> "So.. your forgiving of someone blowing up his own team with a grenade that had no benefits for us?" Gives Grendel a somewhat apologetic glance, but her point stands.
[23:39] <+Mira_Atella> (( you're* ))
[23:40] <+Grendel> "No one died." Grendel says stiffly.
[23:40] <+Elana> "I feel the stench of the Witch upon my soul. It is a heavy burden"6, the Sister states categorically. 1"Death in the Emperor's service is preferrable to corruption."
[23:40] <+Mira_Atella> "No one has died from side effects of Lazerus' abilities either.. we'd lkely be dead without them, despite side effects."
[23:41] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Don't be mistaken, Sister, if you were corrupt I would kill you."
[23:42] * +Mira_Atella lets out a sigh, "Just what needed to be said at this moment."
[23:43] <+Lazerus_Grim> "We are on the same side, Sister, with the same goal, same purpose, and, largely, the same beliefs."
[23:45] * +Elana gives an angry snort. 1"None of you has experience with the corrupted, have you?" 6She shakes her head, retracting her hand and beginning to massage her temple. 1"You knew ..."6, she remarks, then giving Jex a look of thinly veiled contempt. 1"You knew and did not say."
[23:48] * +Mira_Atella contemplates for a moment, "Sister.. you joined us after we had known one another for some time. It was not in the best interest of anyone to make a conflict where none needed to be. This should have been done sooner, but that can't be helped now."
[23:50] <+Mira_Atella> (( Totally not mentioning that in something like 6 months of living in the same place/doing missions, she should have noticed lol ))
[23:50] <@BradGM> Jex "You pride yourself to hunt down the wicked and the corrupt, yet all your training and devotion has blinded you, sister."
[23:52] <+Grendel> "Perhaps all the data should have been presented in the beginning."
[23:52] <+Elana> "Indeed, it seems my trust in the Inquisition was misplaced"6, the Sister retorts icily.
[23:52] <@BradGM> Jex "If all data were presented all the time Grendel, there would not be need of us."
[23:54] <@BradGM> Jex "I did not demand your trust Sister, but your loyalty the the Emperor be proven in serving in His name."
[23:55] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Do you think it was easy for me, sister? Do you think I enjoyed listening to your rants and raves against my brothers? My mentors, my friends, the only ones who understand the blessing and curse of these powers, you mock and loathe them never having met them, never having given them a chance. Oh, how I longed to rebuke your naivety, how I longed to stand up for them, how I felt I had betrayed
[23:55] <+Lazerus_Grim> them by letting you drag their name through the mud." 6His voice is picking up now, he's building steam. 1"Now you have the truth, and you default back to your training, back to the thoughts of those before you. Think for yourself, Sister, remove your own arrogance from the equation and reason with me. You hate me, but the being you worship, is more like me than you."
[23:56] * +Mira_Atella looks like she really wants off the ride now.
[23:58] * +Elana lowers her hand and, within the blink of an eye, unholsters her cal. 75 Ceres-pattern Bolt Pistol, the crimson laser below the barrel springing to life as a finger is laid on the trigger, the red dot quickly trying to find its way directly between the psyker's eyes as the barrel gets pointed at him. 1"The more you say, the more you condemn your own self to death, and your soul into oblivion. ...
[23:59] <+Elana> ... For it is written, the hands of the righteous shall not rest until the sin is cleansed."
[23:59] <@BradGM> Jex "Lower this weapon Sister. Now."
[23:59] * +Lazerus_Grim blinks but doesn't move.
[23:59] <+Mira_Atella> (( as much fun as this is, and with us starting late.. I'm about to pass the hell out after 3 hours of sleep last night :P ))

[00:01] <@BradGM> ((It won't be long Mira.))
[00:02] <+Mira_Atella> (( no problem, I'm not falling over dead, just close ;) ))
[00:02] * +Elana 's right arm remains stretched firm, holding the weapon at point-blank range to the intended target's face. 1"How dare you even speak His name... After what you did to us!"
[00:03] <+Lazerus_Grim> "I have served. That is what I did. I have protected. I have fought. I have bled. I would have died had it been my time. That was not His will; He yet has a purpose for me. I would like the chance to fulfill it, Sister."
[00:04] * +Grendel contemplates what he'd have to do to escape as he watches the frails argue infront of him, pondering modifications to his head to prevent this from happening.
[00:05] * +Mira_Atella speaks sharply, "Elana.. if you do this, you'll betray everything and you'll either die, or be locked away for the rest of your life. He's done nothing to you, he's saved your life more than we probably know. Think for yourself, not with your training."
[00:05] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((to be fair, Grim utters the Litany of Protection subconsciously. Elana might know this if she's ever slept in the same room as him; he talks in his sleep))
[00:07] <@BradGM> Elana, roll awareness -20
[00:07] * +Elana 's eyes dart towards Mira for a moment, the barrel still pointing at Lazerus, never shaking, never wavering. 1"How can you say that? Were you never told about the dangers of the psyker?" 6Her attention returns to Laz. 1"I may well betray everything were I to let him continue his miserable life in spite of his failings."

[00:13] * +Grendel considers once again the Rite of Pure Thought.
[00:14] * +Elana 's mouth twitches in reaction to Mira's words. 1"It is not the Imperial way to betray the wisdom of our forefathers and the God-Emperor. But I have heard stories ... about Witches being able to command the minds of others. It makes me wonder how ..."6 An expression of panic breaks through her stern mask as she suddenly loses control of her body, her weapon-arm growing limp and, accompanied by a ...
[00:15] * +Mira_Atella frowns, "I'm not sure that was neccessary.. she was listening."
[00:16] * +Grendel glances between the psyker, the Inquisitor and the Sister, analyzing.
[00:17] <+Elana> 6... slight whirring sound of the powered armour, falling down, the bolt pistol clattering on the ground. Losing her balance, she begins to fall.
[00:17] <+Elana> "Witch.... craft ..."6, she manages.
[00:17] <+Grendel> 'What has happened?"
[00:18] <@BradGM> Jex "Apologies for interfering Lazerus; but I could not risk gunfire happening in this place. And she would have pulled the Trigger."
[00:18] * +Lazerus_Grim nods. 6"I too sensed that this was going south."
[00:19] <+Mira_Atella> (( No way.. Mira used context with a story from her own life, the sister was going for it! hehe ))
[00:19] <@BradGM> Jex "I beleive you experienced the snesation to your leg once before Grendel."
[00:20] * +Grendel frowns behind his respirator.
[00:21] <@BradGM> Captain Rother flies inside the carry-person, looking at Elana.

[20:47] <@BradGM> +++1402 Hours- Ship Time+++
[20:48] <@BradGM> +++Killing the remaining attacker, Mockingbird went to get their unknown assailants’ vehicle out of the ditch. Grendel achieved little success despite reciting the correct litanies and prayers, and having the others to help push did not help until the Tech-Priest acted on a blasphemous trick from Parlow’s questionable driving techniques and managed to get the car cleared.
[20:48] <@BradGM> As they approached the Spaceport, the heavy in/out traffic of goods leaving the planet slowed their approach enough to allow Mira and Grendel to spot military sentinels standing watch and soldiers searching vehicles. Mockingbird got in touch with the awaiting gun-cutter and drove into a field containing an abandoned barn.
[20:48] <@BradGM> From there they let Parlow leave before setting the old building on fire to signal the pick-up, the device in their possession, with almost no trace of them left behind. The take-off was quick and the Acolytes quickly found themselves in the Void.+++

[20:49] * +Mira_Atella sits in silence with her eyes closed as they travel.
[20:50] * +Lazerus_Grim is glad to be off that rock, and now just wants to get home and finish the job.
[20:51] * +Grendel slumps down in his seat, his wounds bothering him as we leave the planet behind, still giving off a faint charred smell.
[20:52] <@BradGM> You dock into the Eternal Sunset's small shuttle bay. The ancient mechanism for the blast doors rolls up the passageway into the void and atmosphere and gravity is added into the bay.
[20:53] <@BradGM> The door opens and the Armsmen and craft crew exit and complete post-landing procedures and rituals.
[20:53] * +Lazerus_Grim grabs the case that holds the device and disembarks, heading off towards the cell's quarters.
[20:54] * +Mira_Atella opens her eyes, scanning the movements of everyone else before standing and making shadow movements to those of Lazerus.
[20:55] <@BradGM> As you exit the bay, Captain Vouleur and a small security detarchment turn the corner in frond of you "Ah, it is safe to assume that everything went perfectly with your endeavour?"
[20:56] * +Grendel murmurs thanks to the Machine spirit of the gun-cutter for transporting them safely as he disembarks, gathering his gear and making sure the xenos aftifact is removed from the gun-cutter.
[20:56] * +Lazerus_Grim nods to the captain. 1"We have our cargo and appear to have made a clean getaway."
[20:58] <@BradGM> Vouleur "A most rejoicing news Mister Grim. I have taken the liberty to prepare a Statis field in the Ship's secutiy Vault, It will be well protected during our warp voyage."
[20:58] * +Mira_Atella looks at the captain somewhat curiously.
[20:58] <+Mira_Atella> (( if you do what I think you're going to do.. you should be shot :P ))
[20:59] * +Grendel considers. "That would be acceptable Captain."
[20:59] <@BradGM> ((what do you think I'm tihkning?))
[20:59] <+Mira_Atella> (( that the captain is going to try and kill us and take the item ))
[21:00] <@BradGM> ((nooo))
[21:00] <@BradGM> Vouleur "Certianly. Please follow me."
[21:02] * +Grendel moves carefully, following the Captain, allowing the psyker to carry the artifact for now.
[21:02] * +Mira_Atella looks a bit cautious, but also looks very tired, and follows.
[21:02] <@BradGM> He takes you with his armsmen, escorting you really, to the ships' Vaults. There amongst the many, many items of lost worlds, ancient conquest or myserious trade is an open statis field, with a crew of tech-priests and technomats working on the cvontrols and wires
[21:03] <+Mira_Atella> (( oh well then let's hijack the ship and take all these goodies lol ))
[21:04] * +Grendel looks around in interest, examining the machinery despite his wounds, listening to the tech-priests and technomats as they attend to the technology.
[21:04] * +Lazerus_Grim steps up and hands the case to the lead tech-priest of the field.
[21:05] <@BradGM> He takes the case, not even bothering asking what it is or why it is in some travel case, and place it into the statis field. After a ritual of a few minutes, the field actives, locking the Eldar Device behind an impregnamable field.
[21:06] <+Mira_Atella> (( in some travel case that looks like it has been through hell? ))
[21:06] <@BradGM> ((or went in a car crash at least))
[21:06] * +Lazerus_Grim turns to the captain and the rest of the team. 1"Let us be off for the Tricorn Palance immediately."
[21:07] <+Mira_Atella> (( hehe yeah I was figuring it's all scratched, dented, got smoke on it from the fire, maybe a bullet ricochet or two lol ))
[21:08] <@BradGM> Vouleur "This is not my first hit and run, Mister Grim; We are already underway to the warp coordonates. I have also taken the liberty of jamming certain planetary communicationsduring your pick-up."
[21:08] * Elana (~Katsu@86-42-173-154-dynamic.b-ras3.chf.cork.eircom.net) has joined #Shadowrun

[21:08] <@BradGM> ((hey))
[21:09] <+Lazerus_Grim> "I did not mean to imply you were born yesterday, good Sir. I am only very eager to be done with all this."
[21:09] <+Mira_Atella> "Hopefully they're already confused enough on the planet that we shouldn't have any issues. They were focused so much on the space port, our escape route may have gone unnoticed."
[21:09] * +Mira_Atella she gives a nod and turns away from the vault area.
[21:10] <@BradGM> Vouleur "Of course Mister Grim, no wrong thought intended; we shall be to the warp coordonates in 6 days."
[21:10] <+Grendel> "It will depend on how sensitive the machine spirits of the augurs are."
[21:11] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Very good, Captain. Now if you'll excuse me, this old man needs rest and a shower." 6With that, Lazerus heads off towards his room.
[21:12] <@BradGM> Vouleur "You are dismissed Mister Grim."
[21:12] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((he dismissed me? interesting....))
[21:13] <+Mira_Atella> (( hehe, I was wondering about that too.. figured it was habit, since he was kind of asked ))
[21:13] <@BradGM> ((well, you are on *his* ship after all))
[21:14] * +Grendel makes inquiries with the Tech-priests to find the best medicae bay for a tech-priest.
[21:14] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((but i'm a gosh darn agent of the Inquisition! that mean's i'm above everybody!))
[21:15] <@BradGM> Vouleur "Now, my duties must take me to the bridge."
[21:15] * +Mira_Atella heads back to their quarters.
[21:15] <@BradGM> ((yeah well, you're not inquistors, and he knows this.))
[21:15] <+Mira_Atella> (( get rid of my fatigue noooooooow lol ))

[21:17] <@BradGM> ((everyone is too proud to admit fatigue!))
[21:17] <+Mira_Atella> (( I thought about getting meditation, just because an assassin would probably need to do something to focus before killing someone ))
[21:17] <+Lazerus_Grim> (( my bad. i kid of glance over that power))

[21:18] <+Mira_Atella> (( Brad is avoiding answering :P ))

[21:18] <+Mira_Atella> (( *cheers* ))
[21:18] <@BradGM> ((what?))
[21:19] * +Lazerus_Grim spends the time resting, healing, and writing up his mission reports.
[21:19] <@BradGM> ((ok Lazerus))
[21:19] <@BradGM> ((the rest of you doing what?))
[21:19] <@BradGM> Lazerus, roll Literacy+20 as you woudl ahve access to autot-quills and writing equipment onboard.

[21:21] * +Elana remains in seclusion for many hours a day as she devotes time to meditation as well as prayers, chiefly for safe travels through the warp, though the Sister will also file a report of her own.

[21:26] <@BradGM> Mira, you were well abled to get a few voidmen to notice you until they were a feet or so from you.
[21:27] <+Elana> ((wasn't 7 Tzeentch's number? :P))
[21:27] <@BradGM> The Warp trip is rather normal and uneventful; weird dreams, sprits running about, gravity chainging in ship sections without warning
[21:27] <+Elana> ((lol))
[21:28] <+Grendel> ((7 is nurgle. Tzeentch is 9))
[21:28] <@BradGM> THe crew appears to be more or less affected by it; they are even really content that it's that smooth going from the Azeroth Abyss.
[21:28] <+Elana> ((also, *slaps mira for the bad pun*))
[21:28] <+Mira_Atella> (( *walks on the floor* *bzzz* "Oh hey, I'm on the ceiling.. fun!" ))
[21:28] * +Grendel remains in the medicae bay, healing from the conflict.

[21:29] <+Elana> ((it gets more fun when I say good morning to you from the "roof"))
[21:29] <@BradGM> ((You got another wekk to do something else, or do it again))
[21:29] <+Mira_Atella> (( I can honestly say I've never heard someone make a good pun. The whole point of a pun, is that they are bad ))

[21:30] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((/me sees how many psychic abilities he can manifest within a meter of the sister))
[21:30] <+Mira_Atella> (( is there a bar/catina on this boat? ))
[21:30] * +Elana maintains her daily prayer schedule, though she can now be seen attending the ship's own chapel again, joining the crew in mass.
[21:30] <+Mira_Atella> (( cantina* ))
[21:30] <@BradGM> Elana, you write a throught report about the obvious witchcraft present at the Garisson and went in good details pretty much all the way.
[21:30] <@BradGM> ((there's a giant mess hall, yes))
[21:31] <+Elana> ((*sings* ... burn it to the ground ...))
[21:31] * +Mira_Atella spends the remaining week, when not wandering, trying to be social with the crew.
[21:32] <+Elana> ((none of you is joining the mass then? baaad subjects :P))
[21:32] * +Lazerus_Grim flagellates every morning before mingling with the command crew, utilizing his psychic abilities when he so desires.
[21:32] <@BradGM> ((hmm..well Mira, you can roll a social skill, like charm, or carouse to drink with them))
[21:33] <+Mira_Atella> (( mwahaha I have carouse, for some reason.. maybe Bradon.. ))

[21:40] <@BradGM> As you drink and try to mingle a little with the crew, your resistance to alcohol doesn't seems to hold against Voidsec. You get drunk rather quickly and you begin to wail on whoever's in your range of sight and reach.
[21:40] <+Mira_Atella> (( lol she's beating people up? ))
[21:40] <+Elana> (( I think she will be getting beaten up shortly :P ))
[21:40] <@BradGM> Those that are outside your deadly, drunken grasped are being attacked at ranged by your insulting verbal lexemes."
[21:40] <+Mira_Atella> (( Yeah, really.. ))
[21:41] <+Mira_Atella> (( woo may be drunk, but still verbally abusive! ))
[21:41] <+Elana> ((someone knock her out before she starts spouting secrets! :P))

[21:44] <@BradGM> It doens,t take long for Mira to get clubbed behind the head and get up in the brig
[21:45] <+Elana> ((I assume one of us will be notified of this ... ah ... incident?))
[21:45] <+Elana> ((probably Laz as he's closer to the officers))
[21:46] <@BradGM> Lazerus, your witty charm doens,t seems to impress the captain that much, but he still seems intrested by your descriptive and tall-telling, the younger officers and command officers seems all capivated by you
[21:46] <@BradGM> ((I would say that after lazerus' roll, he woudl have learned about it, possibly by the officer who clubbed you))
[21:47] <+Mira_Atella> (( hahaha ))
[21:47] <+Lazerus_Grim> (( now i've got them right where i want them....MUTINY!))
[21:47] * +Grendel continues to wander through the machinery, examining the stasis chambers.
[21:47] <+Mira_Atella> (( do eeeet ))
[21:48] <@BradGM> ((yeha in the warp too, heh..))
[21:48] <+Elana> ((ooh, now that you mention it - guarding the stasis chamber is also a neat pastime for Elana, I'll add a few visits to my daily schedule .. checking up on the security measures etc))
[21:48] * +Lazerus_Grim excuses himself from his enthralling tales long enough to go down to thr brig and see Mira. However, even with his newfound status with the officers, he can only cut her sentence short by two days. Three, with good behavior.
[21:49] * +Mira_Atella explains to Lazerus that she was only trying to work on her social interactions and that crew members took advantage.
[21:50] <+Elana> ((XD))
[21:50] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Best to wait until you're trained in such seductions."
[21:50] <+Mira_Atella> "Until I learn how to drink like a 300 pound marine and not succumb? That sounds like fun training."
[21:51] * +Lazerus_Grim shrugs. 1"More time with Bradon, that's my plan."
[21:51] <+Mira_Atella> "Good thing he likes me, and I don't lose his weapons."
[21:52] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Yeah, he's going to have a field day with Elana."
[21:53] <@BradGM> After a week of warp travel you Arrive into the Scintilla system
[21:54] <+Mira_Atella> (( I don't think I've ever said it, but I always found the name funny since one of my favorite bands is called I:Scintilla ))
[21:54] <+Elana> ((*g*))
[21:57] <@BradGM> The Eternal Sunset makes for Scintilla Prime, the massive Space Station/space port/space docks/refinery hovering over the Planet.
[21:58] <+Grendel> ((Sorry, back, got dragged away suddenly))
[22:00] * +Lazerus_Grim ensures that Mira is released from the brig and prepares to leave this ship, gathering all his gear together.
[22:00] <+Grendel> !dhroll 73
[22:00] <+Servitor> Grendel: 27 Success by 4 degrees!
[22:00] * +Mira_Atella goes about her business as if nothing has happened.
[22:01] <@BradGM> You get called by Captain Vouleur to the terciary Tactical Conference Room B
[22:01] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((you being all of the cell?))
[22:02] <@BradGM> ((yes))
[22:02] * +Elana makes her way to the conference chambers, feeling somewhat less brooding now that the vessel has finally exited the accursed Warp-space.
[22:02] * +Mira_Atella steps in to the room and waits for the others.
[22:02] <@BradGM> Mockingbird get called by Captain Vouleur to the terciary Tactical Conference Room B
[22:02] <@BradGM> ((might as well use the codename))
[22:02] * +Lazerus_Grim sighs at all these formalities and leaves his gear in his room, making his way to the conference room.
[22:03] <@BradGM> ((you would know that room in near the vaults, so the logical place to be beofre taking the device and leave))
[22:03] <@BradGM> ((you were on the ship about a month's time in total and walking about))
[22:03] * +Grendel gathers his gear together and begins to make his way to the Tactical Conference room.
[22:04] <@BradGM> ((just saying))
[22:05] * +Grendel checks to make sure he's at Room B instead of A or C. That would just be embarrassing.
[22:07] <@BradGM> Captain Vouleur is waiting there, with Inquisitor Jex on the Holo Pojector.
[22:07] * +Grendel finds a place out of the way where he can study the Inquisitor and the holo Projector, nodding slightly to the image.
[22:09] * +Lazerus_Grim bows slightly to the inquisitor and stands at-ease.
[22:09] <+Elana> ((worst case, we'll ask us a way through ;))
[22:10] * +Elana enters last, though not much later after Lazerus. Her eyes, emitting an expression of surprise for a moment before reasserting their calculating state, immediately focus on the Inquisitor, mustering the Captain and her companions for mere seconds.
[22:10] <@BradGM> Jex "Mockingbird, I see you are still alive."
[22:11] <@BradGM> Jex "I expect your task complete."
[22:11] * +Grendel wonders if our survival was unexpected. "Of course."
[22:11] * +Mira_Atella doesn't give any kind of visual response, listening and letting the others speak.
[22:12] <+Elana> "There were ... difficulties. But we have secured the device."
[22:15] <+Lazerus_Grim> "However, Inquisitor, we were unable to determine any link between the Dark Eldar and Modra. I may well have just been a random attack by misguided xenos filth."
[22:16] * +Elana glances at Lazerus for a moment before continueing. 1"Or the xenos have deliberately deposited this abomination on the planet to draw the attention of the Ruinous Powers"6, she maintains with a stern look. 1"There was corruption at the garrison."

[22:18] <@BradGM> ((sure))
[22:18] <+Grendel> "There were some suggestions that the Xenos may have been taking advantage of the..." he pauses as Elana speaks and choose different words, "Of the confusion instigated by all the groups fighting."
[22:20] <@BradGM> Jex "A very grim turn of event. Captain Vouleur, ready your teleportarium if you may; It is time to complete your assignement.
[22:21] <+Elana> "I fear we were witnesses to the veil between our world and the Warp drawing thin, even ripping. There were ... strange phenomena ... our own weapons shed bled as if some invisible force would have struck them to prevent us from pursueing our righteous mission. I have seen it with my own eyes!"

[22:21] * +Mira_Atella gives a look to Elana suggesting her concern for the mental well-being of the Sister.
[22:22] <@BradGM> ((hahaha))
[22:22] * +Elana 's voice grows somewhat quieter: 1"We can only pray we were lucky enough to have escaped corruption ourselves. I suggest three weeks of quarantine upon our return to the Tricorne."
[22:22] <+Mira_Atella> (( Mira didn't use a gun in there, so she didn't see any of it lol ))
[22:24] <@BradGM> Jex "Mockingbird, I expect you have notes, proofs, records, written reports rather than wild rumours and religious distortion!"
[22:24] <+Grendel> "Machinery also reacted strangely on this mission as well."

[22:25] <@BradGM> Jex "We shall discuss this in person. Jex Out."
[22:25] <+Elana> "Religious dist-..."6, the Sister begins in anger at the Inquisitor's accusation, but refrains from finishing her outburst, instead allowing the Tech-Priest to continue.
[22:26] <+Elana> ((lol @ Mira))
[22:26] * +Lazerus_Grim makes a mental note to add to his report where he thinks Elana is confused and recommend immediate rectification of the situation....by whatever means necessary.
[22:28] * +Grendel shakes his head and adjusts his gear, thinking there will be much to explain. "A trip to the statis fields and the Teleportarium field is in order I think, Captain."
[22:28] <@BradGM> Vouleur "If you are all ready.." *He leaves the room and into the vaults, where tech-priest and technomats arrives to work on the statis field.
[22:30] * +Grendel follows, watching closely as the Tech-Priests work, noting the subharmonic and the binary cant used to appease the machine spirits of such a exotic machine.
[22:30] * +Mira_Atella follows behind the others, keeping a bit of distance.
[22:30] <@BradGM> After a few minutes of rituals, the statis field drops, adn the Tech-Priest get your item, giving it back to Lazerus.
[22:31] * +Elana remains nearby now, seemingly very watchful - as if the device could spring to life at any moment, releasing hordes of daemonic beasts.
[22:31] <+Mira_Atella> (( is it a pokeball? ))
[22:32] <@BradGM> ((it's in a grizzled travel case))
[22:32] <+Mira_Atella> (( lol nevermind.. ))
[22:32] <@BradGM> Vouleur "Now let us gather your items and let us make way to the teleportarium."
[22:33] * +Grendel hefts his luggage. "I am ready already."
[22:33] * +Lazerus_Grim receives the case and retrieves his gear from his room. A few minutes later he meets the group outside the teleportarium.
[22:33] <+Elana> ((images in my mind .. :P))
[22:33] <@BradGM> Lazerus, you are escorted by armsmen, for your own protection, of course.

[22:35] <+Mira_Atella> (( no no.. that's fine.. she can wait ;) ))
[22:35] <+Elana> ((reminds me of my school days where I'd do homework in the mensa))
[22:35] <@BradGM> It got well adjusted; even corrected a few mistkaes and phrase structure
[22:35] <+Mira_Atella> (( she has to make sure "tripping balls" is expressed properly.. writing it on the fly would lose something in the translation ))
[22:36] <+Grendel> ((heh))
[22:36] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((i was....trippin balls. so i decided to hop on my buzz grinder....))
[22:36] * +Elana does not have much to carry aside from her wargear, soon proceeding to the teleportarium. Upon seeing the platform the Sister grimaces a little, well remembering the weird effects of her first encounter with the device.
[22:36] <@BradGM> You are all back to the Teleportarium, The ancient machine hummss as it's capacitor loads up with energy for your transfer.
[22:36] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((does she have her chest?))
[22:36] <+Mira_Atella> (( I'm sure someone has a hold of it ))
[22:37] * +Lazerus_Grim takes a deep breath, preparing for the trip this time.
[22:37] * +Grendel steps up onto the platform, proud and privilaged to be transported by such a device.
[22:37] <@BradGM> Vouleur "Well Mockingbird, it seems things went quite well for us in this. Perhaps we shall meet again Emperor-willing."

[22:38] * +Mira_Atella moves towards the machine and takes her place.
[22:38] * +Lazerus_Grim salutes the military man. 1"You are a gracious host, Captain, we have enjoyed your company."
[22:38] <+Grendel> "The technology on this ship is amazing Captain, you should be proud."
[22:39] * +Elana inclines her head towards Vouleur. 1"Gratitude, Captain, for your hospitality and transport aboard the ship. May He watch over it on your further journeys." 6The Sister Militant finishes with a religious gesture.
[22:40] <@BradGM> The Machine illuminates and in a monent's time you appears in the teleportarium back at the tricorn, facing Jex and Captain Rother.
[22:40] * Drakkar (~PixelScum@ip98-177-175-82.ph.ph.cox.net) has joined #Shadowrun
[22:41] <@BradGM> Jex "Enjoyed your travels in the Warp, Mockingbird?"
[22:41] <+Grendel> ((Wait. Aren't we like..half a month early?))
[22:43] <@BradGM> ((hum..well since I leanred later that 1 day in the warp is 12 days in real space, that whole week sorta doens't work anymore..so let's make like everythign arranged itself in the end?))
[22:43] <+Grendel> ((Sounds good))
[22:43] * +Elana takes a moment to regain her bearings and adjust to the new environment. As she recognizes the pair waiting for them, the Sister crosses her arms at the wrists, fingers forming the wings of the Holy Aquila. 1"Inquisitor." 6She inclines her head slightly before continueing: 1"A journey through the Empyrean may be a lot, but not enjoyable. We merely did as ordered."
[22:44] <+Elana> ((I thought time in the warp is fluid, so there cannot be a conversion formula anyways?))
[22:44] * +Mira_Atella holds her hands together in front of her, watching the Inquisitor.
[22:44] * +Grendel forms his fingers into the sign of the cog, muttering his thanks for the speedy and safe transport by the Teleporterium. "Our trip was...eventful."
[22:46] <@BradGM> Jex "The Device?"
[22:46] * +Lazerus_Grim steps forwards and kneels, lifting the case to the Inquisitor.
[22:47] <@BradGM> He opens it, barely and glimpse inside, before closing it agian and taking it "Excellent work! Now to the next part of the operation! Follow!"
[22:47] <@BradGM> He leaves the room and in the great corridor awaits a small servitor controlled carry-person
[22:47] * +Elana steps forward without further response.
[22:48] * +Mira_Atella follows the others.
[22:48] * +Lazerus_Grim stands and follows.
[22:48] * +Grendel follows curiously, eyeing Elana's chest to see if she needs help with it again.
[22:49] <+Elana> ((:P))
[22:50] <@BradGM> The Inquisitor sits in the carry-person and after you all embark, programs it and it drives off.
[22:51] <@BradGM> Jex "Now what of that corruption you spoke of, sister?"
[22:51] <+Elana> ((lol, and here I thought that was for the artifact ... lazy bastard - also, now I have to think of a Dreadknight))
[22:53] * +Elana maintains a stern expression as she replies. 1"As you will remember from my preliminary report, there were psychic disturbances in the base we infiltrated. They occurred as we got closer to the artifact. Perhaps it is some sort of ... beacon, or a device that is capable of weakening the fabric between reality and Warp."
[22:53] <@BradGM> Jex "and is there existance of a final report?"
[22:54] <+Elana> "Naturally. I will forward a copy to your office."
[22:54] <@BradGM> Jex "I shall take it at this moment, Agent."
[22:56] * +Elana furrows her brows, hesitating for a moment as if she wanted to get into a staring contest with the Inquisitor. After an almost too long moment, the Sister reaches for a large leathery pocket on the side of her belt, which does not only contain some old-looking book but also a roll of parchment, which is promptly handed over to Jex.
[22:57] <+Elana> "I would welcome were you return the original to me, though a scriptor's copy would do as well."
[22:58] <@BradGM> He gives few quick glances to your report.
[22:58] <@BradGM> Jex "And you have all witnessed those phenomenas?"
[22:59] * +Mira_Atella arches a brow, "What phenomena are you speaking of?"
[22:59] * PixelScum (~PixelScum@ip98-177-175-82.ph.ph.cox.net) has joined #Shadowrun
[22:59] <+Elana> ((upon unrolling, the scroll turns out to be 4 pages of parchment, containing notes on the journey to the target destination, the Cell's plan, and its execution. emphasise is given on the occurrence of the aforementioned phenomena that happened within the base perimeter))
[23:01] <@BradGM> Jex "Let me see ..."Wood and steel weeping a corrupt blood"..., "howling, deamonic winds that projected me to the ground with brutal strength.."..
[23:01] <@BradGM> ((If you would recall, elana was shot to the head at this time and no one fell down but her. IIRC))
[23:01] * +Elana presses her lips together as the Inquisitor recaps the events, well remembering the experience.
[23:01] * +Grendel considers. "There were signs, yes. Machinery also acted oddly."
[23:02] <+Grendel> ((I remember the wind, though I wasn't knocked down by it))
[23:02] * +Mira_Atella takes a moment before answering, "I can't give any verification to those events, but I also can't say they didn't happen. A lot was going on at the time."
[23:03] <@BradGM> jex "Hmm..Lazerus, your thoughts on this?"
[23:03] <+Mira_Atella> "I personally didn't see either of those things, but I was a distance away from the others."
[23:04] * +Lazerus_Grim hesitates for a moment, unsure of what the inquisitor thinks he should do. 1"The sister's conclusions could very well be true."
[23:05] <+Elana> "It is the only explanation"6, she concludes.
[23:05] <+Elana> ((heh :P))
[23:05] <@BradGM> Jex "So you're saying that you did not see those phenomenas happening?"
[23:06] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Like Mira said, a lot was going on. I do seem to recall being knocked down by a strong wind, but the bleeding I cannot speak to." 6He says slowly, choosing his words carefully.

[23:06] <@BradGM> Jex "Or perhaps by some Happenstance you stumbled across then."
[23:07] <+Elana> "You must have seen some of this dark blood on my own person"6, Elana retorts, somewhat confused by the others' restraint.
[23:08] <@BradGM> Jex "The Eldar are very potent Psykers, no doutb their device as disturbed the natural order of things. I would not want it to happen agian and cuase more serious consequences."
[23:08] * +Mira_Atella turns towards the sister, "I was quite some distance from the rest of you, coming up behind the trooper."
[23:08] * +Lazerus_Grim sighs. 1"I can think of one other explanation, Sir. Do you think it wise to discuss at this time?"
[23:09] <+Grendel> "I believe I was on fire at the time."
[23:09] <+Elana> "The device needs to be handled with the utmost care, and there will have to be an inquisition into the purity of the garrison."
[23:09] <@BradGM> Jex "Of what matter is it, Lazerus?"
[23:11] * +Grendel looks curiously at the psyker.
[23:11] <+Lazerus_Grim> "My lord, the sister is unaware of this other possibility."
[23:11] <+Elana> ((*cracks knuckles*))
[23:12] * +Mira_Atella shifts her balance, leaning away from the others as the new subject is breached.
[23:12] * +Elana looks at the psyker as well now.
[23:12] <+Elana> "Make me aware, then"6, the Sororitas demands in a somewhat confused manner.
[23:13] <@BradGM> Jex looks at you Lazerus and seems to be able to read into your chain of thought "What?!?!? You mean she does not know aobut..hm.hmmhehehahahahahaha...."
[23:13] <+Elana> ((lol))
[23:13] * +Lazerus_Grim shakes his head at the inquisitor and takes a deep breath, preparing himself (manifesting Trusting Aura).

[23:14] <+Mira_Atella> (( hahaha he just about turned in to Kefka with that laugh ))
[23:15] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Sister Elana, there is the possibility that a psyker was present and those effects were side effects of his powers."
[23:15] * +Mira_Atella not content with leaning away, she takes a few nonchalant steps away from the group.
[23:16] <@BradGM> ((a few steps would mean jumping off the carry-person))
[23:16] * +Elana seems irritated. 1"You mean a Witch? I am aware that the Imperial Guard makes use of them, but surely not a Planetary Defense garrison?"
[23:16] <+Mira_Atella> (( tiny steps? ))
[23:16] <+Elana> ((lol, abandon ship Mira!))
[23:16] <@BradGM> ((heh..ok))
[23:17] * +Grendel lets out a mutter in binary.
[23:17] <+Mira_Atella> (( Hmm.. firey death from a Sister with a flamer.. or free fall plummet and splat.. decisions, decisions.. ))
[23:17] <+Lazerus_Grim> "You would do well to remember, Sister, that the Imperial Guard, as well as the Imperium at large, finds them incredibly useful. Even the Emperor is the most powerful of psykers."
[23:17] <@BradGM> Jex "Well then, I must admit I am surprised by this, rather impressive, Mockingbird, rather impressive. Not only she did not know a witch was present beside her at all times, but still fails to grasp at the fact that the Inquisition employs one-a many Sanctionned Psykers."
[23:18] * +Lazerus_Grim tuns on the inquisitor. 1"With all due respect, sir, may I settle this with the sister without interruption?"
[23:18] * Ribonizer (hehe@bas4-hull20-1177929233.dsl.bell.ca) Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[23:19] * +Elana 's head turns to Lazerus again, eyes flashing with anger. 1"How dare you spout such lies in these halls!"
[23:19] <+Mira_Atella> (( rofl.. and that was the last anyone saw of the one known as Lazerus Grim.. ))
[23:19] <@BradGM> Jex "Very Well, Lazerus, but I am right beside you; i do not want, nor need, a firefight in this place."
[23:20] <@BradGM> ((no one likes a stray bullet or bolt))
[23:20] * +Elana seems tensed, quite ready to spring into action like an armed bomb waiting for someone to push the trigger.
[23:21] * +Grendel glances around and wonders if the conveyance could've had slightly more room so he could get some distance from the two.
[23:21] * +Lazerus_Grim shakes his head. 1"My good sister, you are naive and uninformed as you've spent your live sheltered. I have seen worlds, systems, sectors; I know far more of this than you do. It is true. As evidence, it was only by the Emperor's psychic power that the navigator on our ship was able to guide us home."
[23:25] * +Elana 's voice takes on an icy tone, censure only being held in check by an ingrained ability to adhere to orders. For now. 1"I do not know who taught you such heresies. I am aware of the psyker's role in the Imperium, and of the God-Emperor's mercy towards them. I suggest you do not besmirch it with these ridiculous lies."
[23:27] <+Lazerus_Grim> "If that is all you will concede then I bid you keep that in mind, the mercy of the God-Emperor, whom you and I both serve, and that a psychic does have a role within the Imperium. I pray that those be enough to temper your wrath, fair Sister, for I know it to be great and terrible...."
[23:27] <+Lazerus_Grim> "The truth is...."
[23:28] <+Lazerus_Grim> 1d10
[23:28] <+Servitor> Lazerus_Grim: 2
[23:28] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((manifest Precognition))
[23:28] <+Lazerus_Grim> "I...am a Sanctioned Psyker."
[23:29] <+Elana> ((what effects do Precognition and Trusting Aura have again, in combination with the rolls you did? anything I should know?))
[23:30] <@BradGM> ((precognition is to help with parry/dodge tests, the other gives a +20 to interacting tests))
[23:31] <+Lazerus_Grim> ((Trusting Aura was up the whole time, hoping to soften her a bit. Precognition is in preparation for a fight))
[23:33] * +Elana blinks, taking a moment to process the newly revealed information. Given the shocking truth and her previously expressed contempt, her calm expression of pure surprise seems rather odd. 1"What are you saying?" 6Her voice gains in volume now. 1"All this time, and you saw fit to hide your mutation? Saw fit to endanger the mission and our very sanity? I should END you here and now for your insolence!"
[23:35] * +Mira_Atella realizes she can't step back any farther and decides it is time to speak up, "Sister.. please keep in mind that if it had not been for Lazerus, we would all be dead several times by now, yourself included. He's been indispensible as a part of our team."
[23:35] * +Lazerus_Grim speaks in a very quiet voice. "I saw fit to accomplish the Emperor's will as best I could within this group. My fear was that you and I would never reach unity. I strove to prove myself to you as a teammate first before revealing this gift. I apologize, but it was the best course of action I saw."
[23:37] * +Grendel checks to make sure he's not in the line of fire as he listens to Lazarus and his revelation.
[23:37] <+Elana> "Indispensible!" 6Her voice is booming now, she would be right at home in a chapel at this moment, riling up citizens for a mutant purge. 1"Has the Witch not admitted that these ... these phenomena were his own doing? Deliberate or undeliberate, both is unforgivable!"
[23:38] * +Elana points an armoured finger at Lazerus now, lowering her voice again as the realization befalls her. 1"You. You have corrupted me with your presence."
[23:39] <+Lazerus_Grim> "If I had corrupted you, sister, you would be aware of it."
[23:39] <+Mira_Atella> "So.. your forgiving of someone blowing up his own team with a grenade that had no benefits for us?" Gives Grendel a somewhat apologetic glance, but her point stands.
[23:39] <+Mira_Atella> (( you're* ))
[23:40] <+Grendel> "No one died." Grendel says stiffly.
[23:40] <+Elana> "I feel the stench of the Witch upon my soul. It is a heavy burden"6, the Sister states categorically. 1"Death in the Emperor's service is preferrable to corruption."
[23:40] <+Mira_Atella> "No one has died from side effects of Lazerus' abilities either.. we'd lkely be dead without them, despite side effects."
[23:41] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Don't be mistaken, Sister, if you were corrupt I would kill you."
[23:42] * +Mira_Atella lets out a sigh, "Just what needed to be said at this moment."
[23:43] <+Lazerus_Grim> "We are on the same side, Sister, with the same goal, same purpose, and, largely, the same beliefs."
[23:45] * +Elana gives an angry snort. 1"None of you has experience with the corrupted, have you?" 6She shakes her head, retracting her hand and beginning to massage her temple. 1"You knew ..."6, she remarks, then giving Jex a look of thinly veiled contempt. 1"You knew and did not say."
[23:48] * +Mira_Atella contemplates for a moment, "Sister.. you joined us after we had known one another for some time. It was not in the best interest of anyone to make a conflict where none needed to be. This should have been done sooner, but that can't be helped now."
[23:50] <+Mira_Atella> (( Totally not mentioning that in something like 6 months of living in the same place/doing missions, she should have noticed lol ))
[23:50] <@BradGM> Jex "You pride yourself to hunt down the wicked and the corrupt, yet all your training and devotion has blinded you, sister."
[23:52] <+Grendel> "Perhaps all the data should have been presented in the beginning."
[23:52] <+Elana> "Indeed, it seems my trust in the Inquisition was misplaced"6, the Sister retorts icily.
[23:52] <@BradGM> Jex "If all data were presented all the time Grendel, there would not be need of us."
[23:54] <@BradGM> Jex "I did not demand your trust Sister, but your loyalty the the Emperor be proven in serving in His name."
[23:55] <+Lazerus_Grim> "Do you think it was easy for me, sister? Do you think I enjoyed listening to your rants and raves against my brothers? My mentors, my friends, the only ones who understand the blessing and curse of these powers, you mock and loathe them never having met them, never having given them a chance. Oh, how I longed to rebuke your naivety, how I longed to stand up for them, how I felt I had betrayed
[23:55] <+Lazerus_Grim> them by letting you drag their name through the mud." 6His voice is picking up now, he's building steam. 1"Now you have the truth, and you default back to your training, back to the thoughts of those before you. Think for yourself, Sister, remove your own arrogance from the equation and reason with me. You hate me, but the being you worship, is more like me than you."
[23:56] * +Mira_Atella looks like she really wants off the ride now.
[23:58] * +Elana lowers her hand and, within the blink of an eye, unholsters her cal. 75 Ceres-pattern Bolt Pistol, the crimson laser below the barrel springing to life as a finger is laid on the trigger, the red dot quickly trying to find its way directly between the psyker's eyes as the barrel gets pointed at him. 1"The more you say, the more you condemn your own self to death, and your soul into oblivion. ...
[23:59] <+Elana> ... For it is written, the hands of the righteous shall not rest until the sin is cleansed."
[23:59] <@BradGM> Jex "Lower this weapon Sister. Now."
[23:59] * +Lazerus_Grim blinks but doesn't move.
[23:59] <+Mira_Atella> (( as much fun as this is, and with us starting late.. I'm about to pass the hell out after 3 hours of sleep last night :P ))

[00:02] <+Mira_Atella> (( no problem, I'm not falling over dead, just close ;) ))
[00:02] * +Elana 's right arm remains stretched firm, holding the weapon at point-blank range to the intended target's face. 1"How dare you even speak His name... After what you did to us!"
[00:03] <+Lazerus_Grim> "I have served. That is what I did. I have protected. I have fought. I have bled. I would have died had it been my time. That was not His will; He yet has a purpose for me. I would like the chance to fulfill it, Sister."
[00:04] * +Grendel contemplates what he'd have to do to escape as he watches the frails argue infront of him, pondering modifications to his head to prevent this from happening.
[00:05] * +Mira_Atella speaks sharply, "Elana.. if you do this, you'll betray everything and you'll either die, or be locked away for the rest of your life. He's done nothing to you, he's saved your life more than we probably know. Think for yourself, not with your training."

[00:07] * +Elana 's eyes dart towards Mira for a moment, the barrel still pointing at Lazerus, never shaking, never wavering. 1"How can you say that? Were you never told about the dangers of the psyker?" 6Her attention returns to Laz. 1"I may well betray everything were I to let him continue his miserable life in spite of his failings."

[00:07] <+Servitor> Elana: 56 Failure by 4 degrees!
[00:07] <+Elana> (Fate :P)

[00:08] <+Servitor> Elana: 42 Failure by 2 degrees!
[00:08] <+Mira_Atella> "I was never told about anything.. I was told lies to get me to kill people that possibly didn't deserve it. I'm not sure I see this situation as being any different, but I learned to think for myself"
[00:09] <@BradGM> ELana, roll toughness

[00:09] <+Elana> !dhroll 10
[00:09] <+Servitor> Elana: 40 Failure by 3 degrees!
[00:10] <@BradGM> ((fate?))
[00:10] <+Elana> ((nah, not at such a lousy chance))
[00:12] <@BradGM> You suddenly loose control of your body below the jaw and got limp.
[00:13] <@BradGM> ((*go limp))
[00:13] * +Mira_Atella raises an eyebrow, placing a hand upon the inside of the carrier for support in case Elana falls on her.
[00:13] * +Grendel considers once again the Rite of Pure Thought.
[00:14] * +Elana 's mouth twitches in reaction to Mira's words. 1"It is not the Imperial way to betray the wisdom of our forefathers and the God-Emperor. But I have heard stories ... about Witches being able to command the minds of others.

[00:17] <+Elana> 6... slight whirring sound of the powered armour, falling down, the bolt pistol clattering on the ground. Losing her balance, she begins to fall.
[00:17] <+Elana> "Witch.... craft ..."6, she manages.
[00:17] <+Grendel> 'What has happened?"
[00:18] <@BradGM> Jex "Apologies for interfering Lazerus; but I could not risk gunfire happening in this place. And she would have pulled the Trigger."
[00:18] * +Lazerus_Grim nods. 6"I too sensed that this was going south."
[00:19] <+Mira_Atella> (( No way.. Mira used context with a story from her own life, the sister was going for it! hehe ))
[00:19] <@BradGM> Jex "I beleive you experienced the snesation to your leg once before Grendel."
[00:20] * +Grendel frowns behind his respirator.
[00:21] <@BradGM> Captain Rother flies inside the carry-person, looking at Elana.
