Gizmo Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Vibrant Community Reclamation is a charitable organization dedicated to investing in low income neighbourhoods around Freedom City, building parks and youth centers while providing ample high profile photo ops for its board of directors and prominent contributors. Recently, however, Jack of all Blades has been hearing more than one drug peddler suggesting that VCR is a front for money laundering. The intel is of questionable reliability and given the organization's good reputation a formal investigation is unlikely. If VCR's shady business is going to be exposed the heroes will need to find evidence without tipping off anyone in a position to destroy the relevant records... I'm looking for two or three PCs to join up with Jack for this. Ideally PL10+ to make balancing things easier, you can expect a balance of skill checks and detective work with the potential for combat if things go wrong!
EternalPhoenix Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Sounds like the kind of thing Terrifica would jump right on. If you'll have me.
Thunder King Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Both Crimson Tiger and Graft are potentially useful for this sort of thing. Graft has supersenses and a couple of useful skills, Crimson Tiger has quite a few useful skills too. If you'll take either one, of course.
KnightDisciple Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Hrm. This sounds very interesting. Part of me wants to offer up Gabriel, because he definitely has the non-combat skills. But I'm not sure if you feel he'd be a good fit here, Gizmo! Nevermore's kind of the opposite end of the spectrum, sadly. CT's great in a fight, but unless we're investigating ART or HISTORY he's not super-useful for detective work. Thoughtspeed can search things really fast and is technically PL11 (especially if his edits get put through), though he's at 8 caps. Basically I want in, and my desire to get Gabe more posts so he's the one to hit Platinum first means I'd like him in on it, but I would be okay if the guy looking to GM didn't think he'd fit.
Tiffany Korta Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 Well if you're still considering character I'd offer up Blod for consideration, it would be nice to show her investigation side.
Raveled Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 Maelstrom would love to break a story like this, but I don't know if she has the investigative skills to be much help.
Gizmo Posted July 13, 2014 Author Posted July 13, 2014 Alright, wasn't expecting to get quite so much interest! Want to keep this thing fairly lean so I'm just going to tap Scarab to get her back into things, Blodeuwedd to let her stretch her skills a little and Graft because I want to see how a guy who runs a free clinic reacts to some of the stuff in this thread. I'll get the IC and OOC threads up tomorrow evening. Everybody else, remind me that I owe you different threads in the near future! Spirit of Revolution should give me a better understanding of Terrifica as a character and I think I may already have something in mind for some fancy pants rich folks and a reporter...
Ecalsneerg Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 I'd like to chime in with, thought the thread title was a donation drive. (Donate to keep us running)
Gizmo Posted July 13, 2014 Author Posted July 13, 2014 The money laundering thing didn't tip you off? Man, that's harsh!Although, y'know, there is a donate button on the right side of the home page. Just saying!
Raveled Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) The money laundering thing didn't tip you off? Man, that's harsh!Wait, if the forums aren't a money laundering scheme, then...I have to go talk to the FBI. BRB Edited July 13, 2014 by Raveled
EternalPhoenix Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 Don't be silly, Giz. You don't owe me anything. I am just not among the chosen few this time. S'okay.
