Supercape Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 OOC for this thread Synth and Catalyst meet some zombie hobo's!
Supercape Posted December 9, 2011 Author Posted December 9, 2011 Could we start off with a Gather Information Roll for Catalyst, and taking 10/20 is fine. Just so she has some background to rumours etc...
Aoiroo Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 I guess taking 20, since Catalyst has no Gather Info skill.
Supercape Posted December 9, 2011 Author Posted December 9, 2011 Good stuff! Ok, well by a PLOT device of your choosing, Catalyst has heard something about missing homeless people in Greenbank. THe Taking 20 Gather Information, Catalysts amateur but dedicated efforts to make inquiries does not reveal a lot more, but: At least ten, and quite possibly more, homeless people have gone missing there, and the hobo's are even drifting away from the area out of fear. Is it a vigilante trying to clear the streets of the scum? nobody knows quite what has happened for sure - two missing person reports have been filed to the police, but they havent got anything to go on, they dont even know if or who went missing. The word is the victims all get "lost" at night, but other than that she doesn't know much.
Aoiroo Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 Catalyst can't really run down the stair and joint he conversation.
Supercape Posted December 10, 2011 Author Posted December 10, 2011 Thats a good question...! Apparently, notice skill covers it. I dont think this is too hard, and I presume you are using binoculars to eliminate range penalty, so DC 15.
Aoiroo Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 Skill Mastery for the win, taking 10. So that's 20.
Supercape Posted December 10, 2011 Author Posted December 10, 2011 Good enough to lip read! The time is not particularly pressing here, its just some chit chat and argument amongst Jake and the Hobos, so if you do want to high tail it down there, feel free too...
Supercape Posted December 10, 2011 Author Posted December 10, 2011 diplomacy roll for catalyst with +2 for the coffee!
Supercape Posted December 10, 2011 Author Posted December 10, 2011 Synth will also use diplomacy on Jake. IN this case, attractive probably applies. 1d20+13=17 Enough to shift him to friendly, at least.
Supercape Posted December 21, 2011 Author Posted December 21, 2011 No clues... although you could take 20 on that search?
Aoiroo Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 She doesn't have any search skill, her search bonus is +4 because of her wisdom score.
Supercape Posted December 21, 2011 Author Posted December 21, 2011 Still able to take 20. Your call, you will find some clues with that. Otherwise I will throw stuff at you! ;)
Supercape Posted December 30, 2011 Author Posted December 30, 2011 Catalyst finds all sorts of junk, but perhaps most interestingly, a discarded syringe-gun loaded with some kind of chemical. Post that IC and also throw me a notice roll here.
Aoiroo Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Take ten on the Physical Sciences get 25, roll for life sciences (19:38:02) System: Aoiroo rolls 1d20 and gets (18)+5=23.
Supercape Posted December 31, 2011 Author Posted December 31, 2011 Good stuff. OK well its a powerful poison. Enough to kill the average human (especially if their immune system were depressed or they where malnourished). There is something else: it would also act as a powerful biological stimulant... so it would both kill an organism technically (and quickly) but powerfully stimulate its growth afterwards. She can also detect some hypnotic and painkiller pharmaceuticals in the concoction, but these are of lesser importance.
Supercape Posted December 31, 2011 Author Posted December 31, 2011 For reference Synth configuring Variable Power: 4 PP: Additional Arms 2 (Extras: Continuous) 4 PP: Elongation 4 (50 feet) 2 PP left over.
Aoiroo Posted January 1, 2012 Posted January 1, 2012 Umm, SC, I sort of posted like that to say that she was driving them to the police, not going into the strange scary underground with the hostage. Catalyst is very much a, we have a witness and scary chemical, the police should probably know about both before we go down under.
