thelazyblank Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Mainly for symmetry, but this is supposed to be an attempt at a mostly-open starting thread. Obviously, any sort of criminal plans will happen later in the thread, when she's had a chance to case the joint. There's still no connection between Letta and her villain persona, but people in the know might be able to connect Letta to the Freedom City Mob.
MBCE Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 Hmmm, this looks like Ghost's stomping grounds. Perhaps I can have him pop in for some interaction if you don't mind. Let me know.
thelazyblank Posted April 25, 2008 Author Posted April 25, 2008 Interaction would be great, actually. Sort of what I was expecting to begin with, rather than out-and-out combat or anything.
Heritage Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 Lenny the Lifter will show up later today or tonight ;)
thelazyblank Posted April 25, 2008 Author Posted April 25, 2008 Sounds good. I dunno how much posting I'll be doing in the next few days, but I'll catch up quick, if I have to. Weekend 7:30am tests are not going to be fun. :(
Heritage Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 Sorry, got a little behind in my posting this weekend; look for more Lenny later today!
thelazyblank Posted May 2, 2008 Author Posted May 2, 2008 Sorry back. This week went by pretty fast. I'll probably have something out this afternoon-early eveningish.
MBCE Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 I haven't forgotten about this thread, but I'll be away on vacation for the next four days. I don't want to get started and hold things up so will delay my appearance until I come back in RL. I hope the thread is still going strong by then.
MBCE Posted May 7, 2008 Posted May 7, 2008 I'm back. Are you guys still willing to allow the Ghost to make an appearance?
Heritage Posted May 7, 2008 Posted May 7, 2008 I'm back. Are you guys still willing to allow the Ghost to make an appearance? Sure, why not? :)
Heritage Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 Okay, I'm finally done tweaking Lenny/Grim's post; I now have to walk away and just let it rest in piece :D
thelazyblank Posted May 16, 2008 Author Posted May 16, 2008 Alright, sorry for being a little slow with the posting, this week's been more Midterm Fun Time. Should hopefully have something up by tonight, but worst case, by the end of the weekend.
Heritage Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 Sorry, I was hoping to get in a post tonight, but now it's getting late (close to midnight), so I will have to post here tomorrow :(
Heritage Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 Ok, I'm not actually sure about the cellphones thing; I saw it on a TV show so I worked it in to my post. It's really an excuse for Lenny/Grim to head outside to fake his call to Whisper, so Grim could actually be wrong. ;)
thelazyblank Posted May 23, 2008 Author Posted May 23, 2008 If Letta knew, she wouldn't bring it up anyways. But I'm pretty sure she just knows better than to mess with security anyways. :D
Heritage Posted May 27, 2008 Posted May 27, 2008 So are we doing the private meeting in the same thread, or starting a new one? And how soon are they supposed to meet at the place, and just where is it?
MBCE Posted May 27, 2008 Posted May 27, 2008 Either is okay to me. I personally like to keep a thread going for about 6 pages or so before moving to another one. But, it is really up to thelazyblank to decide which way we go.
thelazyblank Posted May 27, 2008 Author Posted May 27, 2008 I'm good for same thread. I'm thinking her place is probably right off the Boardwalk anyways. As for time, well, let's say it's soon. No more than an hour or two until plan-time. Just enough to get Letta into her "criminal alter-ego". Which is to say, she's changing her clothes and wearing a hat that covers her face a bit. :D

Works for me, more than enough time for 'Lenny' to become 'Whisper' ;)
thelazyblank Posted May 30, 2008 Author Posted May 30, 2008 So, who wants to start part 2 of this? Should I go ahead or? :D
Heritage Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 So, who wants to start part 2 of this? Should I go ahead or? This is kind of your show, so I would say why don't you take it to the next phase and we'll follow ;)
Heritage Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Sorry for the posting delay, new part-time job sucked away my whole weekend - look for posting tomorrow!
thelazyblank Posted June 5, 2008 Author Posted June 5, 2008 Hmm.. So, this is where I'm kinda confused. Should I do any sort of roll for Gather Information or something like that? I'm not sure how freeform the non-combat things should be.
MBCE Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Hmm.. So, this is where I'm kinda confused. Should I do any sort of roll for Gather Information or something like that? I'm not sure how freeform the non-combat things should be. Yes. This is when you make your rolls, but it depends on what you are trying to figure out. As this is your thread, you can choose a DC, try to keep it realistic, and roll the skill. Your result would then let you know how much you found out. For example. Ghost has been in the area for some time now, however, he had made it a point of staying away from the Golden Calf. He just dislikes the place. So his information on the place would be weaker than on the other casinos in the area. This I'll show by raising the DC on his notice check. Normally, I figure for him to know where the casino had their main office would be a DC 15. He never really looked around the place with an idea of robbing it. Add on an additional +5 to the DC due to his limited exposure to the Casino and that makes it a DC 20 for him to know where the office is and perhaps how many guards were visible. If he gets a 15 on the roll, he'll know the general idea where the office is but not how to access it nor how many people were guarding the entrance. I pick up my dice and.....Notice on main office DC 20 (1d20+5=6) Which means, Ghost really didn'T pay much attention to where the office is at. :D
