ooc Crystal History (OOC)

[Heritage]

I'm thinking maybe your last IC post was supposed to go here, Rav?

 

Notice check: 1d20+15=32

[Raveled]

I don't know what you're talking about. There's no problem here whatsoever.

 

Because I need them.

 

Results 10#1d20: 10 # 10 [1d20=10] 12 [1d20=12] 10 [1d20=10] 3 [1d20=3] 11 [1d20=11] 18 [1d20=18] 4 [1d20=4] 4 [1d20=4] 13 [1d20=13] 1 [1d20=1]

 

The dino is going to leap at Casey and hit her, but it can't actually do damage. I need a Notice check from Miracle Girl while we're at it.

Escape Artist Check

[Raveled]

So Casey sees this because she's got magic zoom eyes. On the wall of the bathtub, where the dinosaur was flicking the water, are tiny tiny tiny pieces of purple crystal -- like individual grains of sand, but apparently the same material the dinosaur is made of. And as far as she can see, there's no water over there at all.

[Raveled]

I'd like to get a Grapple check from Miracle Girl, please.

 

Dino has +19 Escape Artist and gets a total of 31.

Grapple check for Miracle Girl: 1d20+20=38

 

Gotcha, you little varmint!

[Raveled]

Miracle Girl holds onto it really, really well.

[Heritage]

Which makes sense, since it's small enough for her to cup both hands around it.

[Raveled]

To summarize the conversation from chat, Teriffica can't take a sample of this thing without restraining it somehow, and she can't really do chemical/structural analysis with it thrashing around. It definitely came from the study where the old man died.

[Heritage]

Can MG analyze it all with her IR and X-Ray Vision?

[Raveled]

Looking for what, exactly?  I'll tell you for free that it doesn't seem to have internal organs,  etc. It's just crystal.

[Heritage]

That was basically it; if it had any internal organs and overall body temperature.

[EternalPhoenix]

So nevermind on that tool stuff. I'd like to get the funk out of this place and take this crystal dino to the Hanover Institute of Technology. In the nice wooden box in the other room.

[Raveled]

Sure thing. Make a post.

[Heritage]

Can Casey just look and see if the tiny dino is visible inside?

[Heritage]

Reread the thread  to refresh my memory, and I didn't see any mention of Terrifica and MG discussing the exact way Campbell died; I guess we could always it happened 'between panels' as it were, but I like to think the super-genius didn't say anything, in part not to contaminate her protege's own developing skills at deduction. I think based on the limited facts presented and Casey's pretty good Intelligence score (16) that it's a reasonable hypothesis for her to come up with on her own.

 

EDIT: slight edit made; I think her initial hypothesis was too on the nose

Hello?

[EternalPhoenix]

Other threads keep pushing it off the first page for me. Also, I suck. So there's that.

[Raveled]

Is the plan to hit the morgue next or talk to police officers? Either way I'm going to need either some social rolls or some Stealth to get in.

[Heritage]

Miracle Girl is happy to talk with police officers, but I'm not sure how Terrifica feels on the subject.

[EternalPhoenix]

Terrifica does prefer the direct approach. Meaning sneaking into the morgue, however if Miracle Girl objects to essentially breaking in to another building there's always talking it out. Her protege does have a sunny personality, after all. People tend to like her.

[Raveled]

You could do both. T sneaks into the morgue while M talks to the cops. I'm sure there won't be any embarrassing situations that come about because of that.

 

This is also an excellent scene to talk out in the thread. Start posting.

[Heritage]

So is the plan to keep the box with the egg with us while we slip off to the morgue?

[EternalPhoenix]

Unless MG has a better idea?
