Yours Truly Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 Maria wordlessly hands Edmund the shotgun, before closing the door on the both of them, it was at this point that a large full plate wearing...something shoved at the both of them until they exited from the way they came.

Empiricist Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 "Thanks." Opening up the browser, Izumi searches up news websites, skimming through their current headlines and examining the clothes worn by the people in them. She needed to know where they were, what people would care to discuss, and above all, how they acted. Next came searching up magic, starting off with any unfamiliar terms that appeared in the articles and branching out from there. To anyone watching, and really someone had to be watching, it would look like she was undergoing a link free-fall rather than say, conspiring to break into a secure facility. The next order of business would be to get distracted by clickbait and fact check them, might dig up something that while not recent enough for the news, could provide some insight into how this world worked, and how many bullets it'd take to kill a man here.

Strider Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 "Hmm. Well, I suppose we got something. I suppose..." Here he paused. He turned towards the priest who had escorted them into the ritual sacrifice room. "Do you, by any chance, know of any other place that might sell goods of the magical variety? And, did you still want weed, Theo?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntSys Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 "Well, truth to be told... " Halley retracted her right hand and revealed her Comet Blaster. "I have my laws." She pointed the blaster against the blondie and opened fire. The accumulated charge from awhile ago was finally let loose, sending a sparkling energy blast at the blondie's chest. Even if the blast didn't kill him on the spot, his eyes would be blinded for several hours. She took the credstick back in the chaos and fired a barrage of energy blasts, making sure he was dead. "JUSTICE SERVED!" Halley declared with satisfaction. She immediately ran out of the room and blasted the top of the elevator wide open. She jumped and climbed along the shaft, finally reaching the rooftop. She severed the elevator cables with a few more blasts. She charged up her Comet Blaster again as she scanned the view, mapping out a possible escape route should the police force of the world decided to arrest her, mainly, possible routes back to the bar.

DragonRage Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 "Urza's Bones!" Lexiel exclaims, reflexively covering the room with her new gun as she scans for dangers, "What just- Did somebody drop the elevator? That sounded like some kind of pulse weapon! Do you guys sell those here? Son of a drekavec!" Lexiel summons a pair of goblins, and orders them to make some noise if somebody hostile shows. Then she runs out the door and flies up toward the roof, hoping for an alternative way into the upper floors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spümpkin Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 The Bullet's eyes dart around the room. What was this? It sounded like shots being fired. A fight, potentially? Although he hoped not, he was sure that it was. As Lexiel leaves, the Bullet draws his sword, holding it in front warily. Hopefully this did not have to end in violence.

Yours Truly Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 The current headlines are mostly pointless dribble, not much has been going on other than reviews about the last season of the hit reality show "Desert Wars", a bunch of fluff pieces about various artist wearing clothes that appear to be composed partly out of military grade armor, and a bunch of ads about bullet proof armor woven into various articles of regular clothing, the company making the clothing is named "Securetech", and another article highlights how while their clothing are quite discreet and well armored, they are not the most fashionable thing around, yet another article disagrees with everything the previous article states, and it goes on and on for a while. Izumi would also find various odd and new terms such as "Awakened" and the various different kinds of wizardry, Izumi would perhaps find herself to have the most in common with a Shaman, one devoted to a certain patron spirit that in a sense, draws their abilities from them. Izumi would find that the amount of bullets required to kill a man spikes up with how robotic they seem. Halley successfully murders the man and snatches the credstick which the man had been in the process of giving to her, before running away and presumably blasting down the previously locked door, she manages to drop the elevators and climb up the shaft before entering the roof. (14 v 5), Halley successfully notices the large Austrian man planting a comically large bomb on top of the roof, the man jumps up and remains up after Halley's appearance, and says in a loud voice "OH FOR FUCK'S SAKE CAN'T A MAN HUNT DOWN AND KILL SOME FUCKING ARTIST WANNABE, SOME GIRL WITH A WHITE JUMPSUIT AND BLUE HELMET , AND A RENAISSANCE DORK WITHOUT HAVING A SHADOWRUNNER BOTHERING HIM?" The man then takes some time to inspect Halley a little more, and he lets out a rather robotic laugh before saying "OH WAIT NO THIS MAKES IT EASIER". Round 1, start Initiative Oh shit: 25 Halley: 6 Lexiel: 15 The Bullet: 13 Lexiel would find a flying and shouting man with a mass of blades sticking out of his arm on the roof shouting at Halley.

LucidRain Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 (edited) Visrii considers his options, when he hears a blast from the elevator shafts. "Hell. I was thinking why there wasn't a fight around here." He summons Climax and gets ready for a battle. The cold steel-blue halberd of his weapon starts glowing with lightning, and he joins the fight upstairs with a surprise power sweep, not actually hitting the man but coming darn close. "You've got a problem with one of our members?" Visrii growls. Edited March 23, 2017 by PigeonOfAstora Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yours Truly Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 The man simply laughs maniacally once more before saying "You'll find more useful items in Aztech, Edmund, I mean the both of us know that you are going to start looting right? Debts need to be paid after all, and let's not even get started on the stereotypical soldier...". Last one: Name: Mossberg CMDT Combat Gun "The Defiance" Description: A pistol gripped short barreled shotgun with a rifled choke for increased accuracy, the weapon had been enchanted by a group of rather corrupt mages as part of a bet, it is unknown what the actual effect would be Type: Weapon Min Stats: 1 STR Weight: 2 Damage: 2d4+DEX SYN Threshold: Special Qualities: Demon in a bottle: the first time the weapon is used in battle a random number from one to 4, this determines what special quality is applied to the weapon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntSys Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 "Wait... " Halley recalled the picture shown to her from minutes ago. "you two were looking for the same people!" She turned around, noticing Visrii and Lexiel's entrance. "Oh! You were looking for US." She laughed, before continuing her Supercharge. "That bomb doesn't look good. What's it for, big guy?"

Strider Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 "...I see. Theo, I don't think you have any money on you? I'm going to be returning to the Stuffer Shack where I was earlier. I'm almost out of money, so I thought I'd pick up some more medkits." Edmond, stepped out into the street, and began to walk towards the Stuffer Shack. It didn't really matter much if Theo followed him, but Edmond had wanted to leave the option open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonRage Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 A bomb! Not good. Lexiel decides that her best option is probably to neutralize the bomber first, since she doesn't know how good her new weapon is against inanimate objects. So she attempts to shoot him in the back with the narcojet rifle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spümpkin Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 More noise. This time from further up. But how could he get up there with the lift now broken? Thinking on his feet, the Bullet leaves Weapons World and searches the alleyway where he originally was for any way up to the rooftop battle.

Yours Truly Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) The Austrian man laughs at Halley's questions and responds with "OH PLEASE NOT WILLIE, IT IS PRETTY OBVIOUS WHAT I AM DOING WITH SEVERAL KILOGRAMS OF C14", he then proceeds to notice Lexiel's ascent, and Visrii's attempt to stab at upwards at the man from the ground floor, he would have noticed The Bullet arming himself with a sword. It was at that moment that The Austrian Man lurches forward at Halley accompanied by the sound of roaring jets at about....50 miles per hour. Oh Crap! Uses Godspeed on Halley. It then proceeds to shiv Lexiel, before closing in to punch Visrii in a very embarrassing position before lightly kicking Halley. Oh Crap uses Whirling Dervish on Lexiel, Visrii and Halley. Round progression Visrii manages to yell menacingly at the man with his Halberd in tow, although he is still on the ground floor when.... The Austrian man crashes into Halley at high speeds, ((To put it simply Halley failed an opposed X v DEX check)) causing her to lose her current turn. The Austrian man lashes out at Visrii , Halleyband Lexiel, dealing 9, 8, and 9 damage. Halley spends this round knocked down on the floor after getting shivved at high speeds. Lexiel makes a single mana bond, and fires her Narcojet rifle at him, dealing 1 point of damage. The Bullet and Visrii would find a conveniently placed fire escape that can in fact lead to the rooftop. Initiative Visrii: 28 Oh Crap!: 25 Lexiel: 15 The Bullet: 12 Halley: 6 Status Visrii: 25/34 Lexiel: 31/40 The Bullet: 38/38 Halley: 24/32 Oh Crap!: Undamaged At this point Edmund should honestly be genre savvy enough to expect what happens next. As he carries the shotgun with him he can hear an unnecessarily deep voice repeatedly say "Fuck you". Edited March 24, 2017 by Cronos5010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonRage Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 "You fly like a turtle," Lexiel informs the Austrian terrorist, backwinging out of reach. She fires a Lightning Helix at him, hoping the electricity will short out his jetpack. The healing is directed at Halley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucidRain Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Fuck! Should've expected that. Visrii leaps back up and wordlessly retaliates with a Sharp Sweep against the man's arm, targeting to disarm the guy. (2d4+1.25DEX, bypass 75% RES) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntSys Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 "Rude!" Halley crawled up from the ground and attempted to Supercharge again. She was rather impressed by the jacket's durability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 "Excuse me?" Edmond spun around, first checking to see if it was Theo who was speaking, and then whether an unidentified foe had approached. He saw nothing. Theo was certainly not speaking, and Edmond could see no one else who might be the source of such rudeness. Wait...antogonistic spirit. Huh. Rather ruder than I expected... Turning to Theo, Edmond stated nonchalantly, "Would you hold this for a moment, and tell me if you hear anything?" He gave the shotgun to Theo for a moment, and then took it back. All the while, Edmond continued walking in the direction of the Stuffer Shack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yours Truly Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 After the shotgun had been transferred to Theodore, he would hear the deep voice say "Can you please play some smooth jazz? I haven't heard a good one in a while DJ". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S34N1C Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 ((Shit, that's a lot of posts)) *Flashback to the weed question* "Nah, we've got shit to do. Don't need to co traipsing around the city just for a little weed." *Flashback to question about money* "Yeah, I've got some cash. Lead the way." Theo follows Edmund *Meanwhile, in the present* As Theo takes the shotgun, he hears a strange voice asking for jazz music. "Hmm, never spoken to a spirit trapped inside a shotgun before. I guess I can play a little somethin' for ya." Theo thinks for a minute, then starts playing some smooth jazz. ((Can't do a link right now, sorry)) As he does this, he continues to follow Edmund.

spümpkin Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Aha! Rushing up the fire escape, The Bullet reaches the rooftop battle. Readying himself for combat, he rolls into the fight. The Bullet swings Blasphemy, sending a shimmering magical projectile towards the Austrian man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yours Truly Posted March 25, 2017 Author Share Posted March 25, 2017 The Austrian man laughs at Lexiel's response "AND YOU FLY LIKE A LAME MERLIN BIRD" before drop kicking her, he then fires a large red beam at Halley. Round Two. Visrii Sweeps sharply with his phallic weapon dealing 10 damage and leaving a small wound on the man's skin. The Austrian man drop kicks Lexiel, dealing 15 damage. The Austrian man fires a brightly lit red beam from the back of his hand, his middle finger appears to be pointed firmly up to form a rude gesture, dealing 8 damage per round for two rounds. Lexiel heals Halley for six points of damage while also dealing 1 point of damage to the Austrian man, his non existent jetpack does not seem to be fizzling out, and in fact he seems to be moving faster. The Bullet fires a shimmering magical Projectile at the Austrian man, dealing 3 points of damage Halley supercharges this round. Initiative Visrii: 28 Oh Crap!: 25 Lexiel: 15 The Bullet: 12 Halley: 6 Status Visrii: 25/34 Lexiel: 16/40 Halley: 22/32 (Poisoned for two rounds) The Bullet: 38/38 Oh Crap: Undamaged The spirit in the shotgun says "Thank's kid, you're a better looking companion than any of those Lodge fucks anyway.". Edmund would find that the Stuffer Shack is on fire, as in it was literally on fire, a dwarf is rolling around on the floor, presumably he was performing the stop drop and roll technique.

IntSys Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 "Finally!" Halley smirked, and fired away at the Austrian man.
