Session Start: Sat Mar 15 15:03:34 2003 Session Ident: #Dragonstar [15:24:42] [Last time, on Dragonstar] [15:24:48] [Our heroes shot up a bunch of rats] [15:24:51] [That's about it.] [15:24:56] [Session Start] [15:25:05] (Correction. Vincent shot up some rats.) [15:25:25] ( Hey. I got one, too. ;.; ) [15:25:33] (So did I!) [15:25:36] ( And did we ever get any XP for it? ^_~) [15:25:46] * Brody picks up her silenced gun, and puts it back in her coat. She similarly holsters her Blaster, and pats Vincent on the shoulder. "That's my boy." [15:25:52] (Yes, 450 each) [15:26:04] ( Yeah. But you don't level until you rest a day. :P ) [15:26:10] ( XD ) [15:26:34] * Thalan walks slowly and silently into the now pest-ridden room. [15:26:56] * Xivilai has already walked in, as of last session! [15:27:01] [The room is pretty empty and quiet, although there's a lot of garbage around. And a crudely-made rat next] [15:27:15] (Nest Dem. Nest.) [15:27:20] * Fiarre glances at the nest. [15:27:22] ( Yah, typo ) [15:27:31] * Xivilai quickly looks the room over for anything shiny. [15:27:36] [An opening in the concrete wall leads out of the room and further into the basement.] [15:27:37] Looks like they've had plenty of time in here. [15:27:45] (Quick! The nest may have treasure!) [15:27:58] * Thalan nods, then looks at the opening. (How big is it?) [15:28:07] ( Right! Those rats might've swallowed some gold or something! ;P ) [15:28:24] ( About the size of a door ) [15:28:25] (Hey, they may be like ravens.) [15:28:32] ( Where in the room is Xiv searching? ) [15:28:38] (Find a crepchip, use it to build the nest.) [15:28:40] ( Random piles of garbage? ) [15:28:44] ( Or magpies. ) [15:29:03] ( DM> Yes. Not really thorough enough to be called searching, tho. ) [15:29:08] ( Ah. ) [15:29:28] Vinnie, be a dear and help me check the nest? [15:29:33] [Xivilai finds nothing of particular value in the random piles of garbage in the room] [15:29:42] [Unless you consider a used centaur condom valuable] [15:29:48] (...) [15:29:59] ...ueck. [15:30:03] * Brody walks over to the nest, followed by Vincent, and looks in it. Not close enough to get eyebitten, of course, but enough to look inside. [15:30:10] (DO I EVER!) [15:30:17] [Brody sees a few shinies] [15:30:29] * Thalan peeks through the hole in the wall. [15:30:34] (Is this room covered in water too, or...?) [15:30:38] Oooh. Open this bad sally, Vinnie. [15:30:55] * Vincent opens up the rat's nest so that the shinies may be claimed. [15:30:57] [Yes, the next room over is covered in water] [15:31:40] [Brody finds an assortment of ancient coins in the next. They don't really look too valuable, but there's a decent amount of them.] [15:31:56] * Thalan grumbles and looks back. "Did you find anything?" [15:32:12] [If you carefully count, them, they're 8 pieces of silver, and one less than twenty pieces of copper] [15:32:15] Old coins. [15:32:31] * Brody begins scooping them up into her sack. [15:32:35] [In other words, a bit over one credit] [15:32:37] Might as well keep them. Maybe a collector'd be interested. [15:32:46] Yeah. [15:33:05] * Thalan shrugs and quietly enters the next room. [15:33:27] * Xivilai shrugs. "Sure. Or you could use them to make a necklace." [15:33:31] * Xivilai follows Thalan. [15:33:36] * Brody follows, Vincent trailing behind her. [15:33:41] Oooh. That's a good idea, too. [15:34:12] [This room is similar to the last. There's less debris here, though the remnants of wooden shelves and furniture float on the surface of the water] [15:34:28] I think I'll have Soodlebon check their prices when we get back. See if we can get anything for them before I string them up. [15:34:29] (How deep is the H2O?) [15:34:36] * Fiarre glances at some of the bits of furniture. [15:34:38] ( Not seriously that deep ) [15:34:52] (1 ft? A few inches? 3 ft?) [15:35:02] ( Probably a foot or so. ) [15:35:07] (Alright.) [15:35:30] * Thalan looks around the room for another exit. [15:35:32] [Two doors can also be seen on different walls.] [15:35:47] * Xivilai goes right in, since her boots are higher than that. "You okay with water, Thalan?" [15:36:02] [One lies against the wall leading to the direction you came from, but judging from the distance, it leads to a nearby room.] [15:36:06] ( Another, even ) [15:36:31] * Thalan looks at the water and retracts slightly. "Well... Yeah, I'll be fine." [15:36:35] [The other one leads to a pretty tiny-looking room.] [15:37:17] * Vincent rolls up her pant legs to upper-shin, and begins wading towards the tiny room. [15:37:18] * Fiarre walks over to the door on the wall they came through and tries to see if he can hear anything through it. [15:37:54] (Shit.) [15:37:56] [Fiarre doesn't really see much other than another room with piles of garbage] [15:37:58] ( ? ) [15:38:00] * Xivilai heads to the tiny room, too. [15:38:08] ( Don't worry 'bout it, Cha. Everyone does it. ;P ) [15:38:09] (Brody did that. Damn multi-window shenannigans.) [15:38:10] * Fiarre shrugs, and goes to the tiny room. [15:38:15] ( Ah ) [15:38:22] (Hey, guys? ...how are we going to roll?) [15:38:33] -herring.sandwich.net:@#Dragonstar- DMOta invited Dicesuke into channel #Dragonstar. [15:38:33] * Dicesuke (dice@155.92.103.53) has joined #Dragonstar [15:38:37] * Thalan sniffs the air and steps carefully to the tiny room. [15:39:07] * Vincent also goes towards the tiny room. [15:39:09] [The smaller room, like the others, is flooded. However, one of the walls is collapsed. This just may be your ticket into the old tenement] [15:39:31] Ooooh yeah. [15:39:35] (DAMMIT.) [15:39:44] * Brody says that. [15:40:00] * Xivilai grins. "Hot diggity." [15:40:13] Did I say that right? [15:40:14] Thalan, you mind scouting up? If there *is* something up there, you're the least likely to be seen. [15:40:52] * Thalan smirks slightly, then looks at Brody and nods. He walks quietly up to the wall and takes a quick peak through. [15:41:48] [As Thalan peeks through the collapsed wall, he sees a much larger room. Not only is there trash, but there are small piles of bones emerging from the surface of the water] [15:42:05] [Also... there's some sorta figure crouched in the corner...] [15:42:12] (...sticking out, or literally getting up and walking?) [15:42:19] [Sticking out] [15:42:56] * Xivilai doesn't see this, or she'd be worried. [15:43:11] * Thalan sniffs. [15:43:46] * Thalan dashes into the room, trying to remain hidden from the figure. [15:43:56] [Make a move silently check] [15:44:38] d20+17 [15:44:38] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Thalan (d20+17) and gets 22. [15:44:58] [Alright. What's Thalan doing now?] [15:45:17] (...it's nice to know almost everyone in this group has really high skill at something.) [15:45:27] ( Isn't it? ^_~ ) [15:45:30] * Thalan is first making sure the thing didn't notice him. [15:45:45] [Doesn't seem to have noticed Thalan] [15:45:48] (Except for YOOOOOOU.) [15:46:13] * Thalan looks around for any exits out of the room besides the one that he just entered. [15:46:28] (I don't know, I think the 22 cha and multitude of spells are somewhat helpful. ^_^) [15:46:32] [There are two more exits] [15:46:44] (Any of them lead up?) [15:46:53] (Well, from what I can tell anyways?) [15:47:13] [Not that you can tell] [15:47:45] [As you spend more time in the room, you notice something...] [15:48:12] (Your fly is undone.) [15:48:18] [The guy in the corner is sucking on a severed leg] [15:49:29] (His own?) [15:49:29] (About how big is the room?) [15:49:53] ( Slightly larger than the rooms you've been in before ) [15:50:31] * Thalan looks around the room for anything else out of the ordinary. [15:51:07] [Nothing else out of the ordinary can be seen] [15:51:38] ( Yeah, well, the guy chewing on the leg is enough, I think. ) [15:51:42] * Thalan looks torwards the nearest door. (Are there ample places for me to hide on my way to it?) [15:52:19] (Sorry about this people, but Thalan knows what he's doing and doesn't want to get caught. ^^;) [15:52:22] ( Not really ) [15:52:41] (And creepy guy is facing away from me... Great.) [15:53:49] * Thalan moves swiftly and quietly back through the hole he came in through. [15:54:53] [Thalan makes it through without incident...] [15:55:03] What's up there? [15:55:30] * Thalan speaks in a hushed tone. "We got some sort of cannibal in there, as well as two doorways. No other opposition that I could see though." [15:55:40] * Fiarre frowns. [15:56:24] * Brody doesn't seem quite as put off by that as she should. [15:56:34] So, what're we doing about the cannibal? [15:56:44] * Thalan produces pulls out a small taser pistol from his backpack. "Unless you guys think you can sneak past, we're going to have to neutralize him." [15:56:46] Is anyone a really good shot with a rifle? [15:57:14] Yes. [15:57:16] * Thalan smirks. "Do you have something... quiet?" [15:57:36] * Fiarre puts his pistol away, and somehow pulls out a sniper rifle. [15:57:44] I'm an alright shot, but I'm sure someone else could do better. [15:57:50] * Xivilai grins and hefts her rifle, which has already been proven to be quiet. [15:57:52] (Er. Brody.) [15:58:04] * Thalan raises an eyebrow. "So that's what you keep under there." [15:58:24] Thalan. Is he an orc? [15:58:28] This might help you aim a bit better than that. [15:58:36] * Thalan sniffs the air. [15:58:40] I can shoot. But it may be for the better that we knock him out without being seen. Unnecessary killing ought to be avoided. [15:59:28] * Thalan shakes his head. "Not an orc... can't tell very well because of the stench in here though." He frowns. [16:00:42] Could you knock him out, T? Have a cudgel or something? [16:02:14] * Thalan checks his bag. "I doubt I have a sap or a crudgle..." [16:03:06] Couldn't you just pistol whip him? [16:03:41] * Thalan pulls out some rope. "If you can hold him, I can tie him up though." [16:04:21] I could daze him, if I could get close enough to touch. I'm not really good enough at sneaking to get there without him noticing. [16:06:23] * Thalan checks his tazer-pistol, then puts it away, pulling out a holo-cam. "This should be a good enough distraction." [16:07:16] * Fiarre puts his rifle away again. [16:07:20] * Xivilai raises an eyebrow. [16:07:53] Well, how would we do this? [16:08:28] Alright, if someone can manage to flash this in the room, it should daze the humanoid enough so Fiarre can grab or restrain him. Then we gag and tie him up, knocking him out if necessary. [16:08:47] * Vincent nods. [16:08:58] Gimme that bad boy. [16:09:19] The daze spell won't last that long, though, so you'll have to tie him up fast. [16:09:47] * Fiarre reaches into his clothes and pulls at a rapier. "Just in case." [16:09:51] * Thalan hands Brody the camera carefully. "Noted. Just let me get in there." [16:10:17] Xiv? I'm counting on you to end it if things get too hectic in there. [16:10:42] * Brody handles the camera like a pro, and pokes up slightly to get an idea of where the cannibal is. [16:10:46] * Xivilai nods. "Of course." [16:10:46] ( Who has a rope? ) [16:10:52] (Me!) [16:11:07] * Xivilai turns the scope on her rifle on and checks it. [16:11:19] Just what kind of rifle is that, anyway? [16:11:35] * Xivilai smirks. "A very happy one." [16:11:40] * Fiarre shakes his head. [16:11:49] * Thalan dashes into the room again, trying to get as close to Mr. legs-for-food as he can without the cannibal noticing. [16:12:04] [Roll move silently] [16:12:11] d20+17 [16:12:12] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Thalan (d20+17) and gets 29. [16:12:13] Model ESC-90 assault rifle. With a bit of customization, of course. [16:12:22] Hmm. [16:13:07] (So, am I going to try to move silently myself, or just run up to him and hope he's distracted?) [16:13:50] * Thalan gets the rope ready and gives a visual signal to the rest of the group that he's in position. [16:14:44] * Brody gives the signal that she's ready to go. [16:14:51] * Xivilai nods at Thalan and pulls her rifle up to rest against her left shoulder. [16:15:04] (Man... we're way too good at this, you know that?) [16:15:08] * Fiarre crouches down and gets ready to move. [16:15:15] (Say that after it works.) [16:15:31] (Okay... I'm getting the suspicion that this guy can't see though.) [16:15:41] ( Er... can we pause here? I need to take care of something. ^^; ) [16:15:46] [Pause] Session Close: Sat Mar 15 00:00:00 2003
