Aden: All right, we're all good.
Dpayne: Chapter 3: Another Evening of Wine and Roses
Dpayne: "Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway."
Dpayne: As we last left off the thin pale woman at the bar is screaming for the death of the girl you just defeated, and the young Asian girl at the door is begging for her life.
Dpayne: Life and death are in the hands of your characters, what will you choose...
Dpayne: Over.
PingYu: Well, the girl who helped us get in wants her to live, and the one that stuck us in gruesome fight wants her dead.
Aden: I continue cradling the girl, ignoring most everything else.
Aden: Over.
Devereaux: If we kill her, are they going to kill us?
PingYu: Can I burn two more points to heal the rest of my lethal damage?
Dpayne: Yes
Dpayne: And I'm not going to answer that, Vinny.
Devereaux: I'm asking my group.
Barrett: They were all pretty happy to see us fight her.
Barrett: so I'd assume the lady who made us fight is in charge.
Aden: Speak in-character.
PingYu: "I say we let her live, if for no other reason than it displeases that bitch." And I point to the pale woman.
Barrett: Where is the asian girl now?
Dpayne: She is standing off to the side with Large Marge.
Dpayne: Suddenly Large Marge finally looks up and walks over to Aden.
Devereaux: Was she the chick who Large Marge was hitting on?
Barrett: Is she by the cage in a spot where we can speak to her though?
Dpayne: She puts her hand on his shoulder and whispers to him.
Dpayne: Over.
Dpayne: She's in the cage.
Aden: I look up at Large Marge, blink, and strain myself to pick up the girl and her over.
Aden: Over.
Dpayne: As is Large Marge.
Aden: hand her over
Dpayne: Large Marge takes the girl and nods at you.
Dpayne: "Leave, and meet me in the park in half and hour."
PingYu: I'm going to narrow my eyes slightly at Aden acting without consulting us.
PingYu: -_-
Dpayne: "They won't harm you as long as I'm here."
Aden: You can make them NARROWER?!
Dpayne: The young Asian girl opens the door to the pit, and the throng of dykes moves off the the side to make a path.
Devereaux: I'm stunned how Ping Yu could fall asleep while standing up.
Dpayne: Over.
Barrett: I adjust my backpack and see that everything is in order and then head out of the cage and towards the exit.
Dpayne: You hear the pale woman start screaming.
Dpayne: "I won't forget this Marge. I'll get the other Furies, you'll be punished, you can guarantee it."
Dpayne: "And I'll kill the rest of you fucks as well."
Dpayne: "You could've been in my favor."
Dpayne: "Now wait for your deaths!"
Dpayne: She continues ranting and screaming.
Dpayne: Marge motions you to take the exit and begins heading out herself.
Dpayne: Over.
PingYu: I head over to Aden and offer my hand to help him up.
PingYu: Over.
Devereaux: I collect the throwing knives I tossed.
PingYu: Unless he's standing now.
Aden: I look up at Ping and consider her, then sneer and crawl over to my cane, and struggle to my feet on my own.
Aden: Over.
PingYu: I shrug and head out.
PingYu: Over.
Barrett: I step outside and walk a few feet down the sidewalk to wait for the rest of my party.
Barrett: over.
Aden: I'll exit as well.
Dpayne: Devereaux?
Devereaux: I'll exit.
Dpayne: You all Exit the bar. Marge follows close behind carrying the woman in the blindfold with the young girl following shortly behind her.
Dpayne: She looks at you one last time.
Dpayne: "Remember meet me in the park, I can provide you the help you were looking for there."
Dpayne: She then makes her way to a large truck and speeds off with her two companions.
Dpayne: The 4 of you are now standing outside the bar.
Dpayne: As you see Marge pull off you start the hear the bar crowd get riley and realize that leaving soon might be necessary.
Dpayne: Over.
Aden: Well, while we stand there, I'm going to smack Devereaux in the stomach with my cane.
Aden: Over.
Aden: As hard as I can.

Dpayne: roll 1d10
dicebot: Dpayne rolled 1d10 --> [ 1d10=4 ]{4}
PingYu: I wonder if I should ditch my bike and just get in the car.
Barrett: it'd probably be better to have a backup mode of transportation
PingYu: I can always steal one if I need to.
Dpayne: Devereaux takes a hard blow to the stomach and doubles over quickly grabbing his hand to his mouth as a few droplets of blood vomit escape.
Dpayne: Devereauz take a point of bashing damage.
Aden: Can I act again?
PingYu: I'm a bit concerned with being split up with a ton of angry werewolves after me.
PingYu: Oh well, I'll hop on my bike, and start it up.
Devereaux: "You fucking little cocksucker ..."
PingYu: Over.
Dpayne: You can act, but it will trigger combat and an initiative roll.
Devereaux: I whip out my kukri and point the tip at Aden's throat.
Devereaux: Over.
Dpayne: At least if it's aggressive.
Aden: I want to push him up against the wall of the bar.
Devereaux: roll 5#d10

Barrett: I briefly watch the exchange but then look out the opposite window.
Barrett: over.
Aden: Over.
Dpayne: Aden are you pinning him with your can or arm?
Dpayne: cane
Aden: My arm. I want to slip the cane into the crevice of my right arm (AS I DO) and hold him with my forearm to his collarbone with my left arm.
Devereaux: I lower my head slightly upon a sudden realization, but then quickly ignore it.
Devereaux: Over.
Dpayne: Okay roll contested strength+brawl difficulty 7 both of you.
Aden: oh jeez

Dpayne: Aden makes a move to pin Devereaux but loses his balance and falls flat on his face as Devereaux gracefully brushes him aside.
Dpayne: Lose a willpower point out of embarassement Aden.
Dpayne: Over.
Aden: This pain ...
Devereaux: I place my knee on the small of his back and jerk his head up by his hair.
Devereaux: Over.

Barrett: wow
Aden: my incredible alertness kills devereaux
Dpayne: Before either of you can take your conflict to the next level you both hear a loud crash and turn to see the doors of the bar hit the ground.
PingYu: It's good that I am able to transport myself without needing Aden.
Aden: I didn't get a chance to spit in his face.
Aden: I did that, when he jerked my head up.
Dpayne: A throng of large mannish women brandishing chains, knives and lead pipes move their way towards you.
Dpayne: Over.
Barrett: I sigh.
Devereaux: "You try this shit again, you disgusting freak, I'll yank out your throat," I say, eyeing the approaching mob.
Barrett: I climb into the front seat of the car and use flesh craft on my finger to make it clay like and run it into the ignition of the car.
Devereaux: I move away from Aden and towards the car, facing the group.
Devereaux: Over.
Dpayne: You get a better view and see that it's almost half the bar.
Dpayne: They also don't seem to be stopping.
Dpayne: Over.
PingYu: I hope Barrett can drive.
Aden: I guess I get to my feet, livid, and hobble over to the car, but I do turn around and give them the finger.
Devereaux: I have a point in drive now, I think.
Aden: Can I get inside the car?
Dpayne: Okay bonecraft difficulty 9.
Barrett: Forget about that fleshcraft nonsense
Dpayne: Okay, Aden Dev roll dex+athletics, difficulty 4 for Dev, 7 for Aden.
Barrett: I open the front door and step out of the car
***Aden rolls 5 10-sided dice: 2 3 7 2 9

Barrett: also I left the front door open
Dpayne: Dev?

Dpayne: Devereaux takes advantage of his position and quickly dashes to the car leaping majestically into the driver's seat.
Devereaux: I assume Aden has the keys?
Dpayne: Aden with surprising agility makes his way to his feet, he begins hobbling quickly to the car, the women get within inches of him, but he somehow pulls away and falls into the passenger seat over.
Aden: oh god we're both up front together
Dpayne: The women will be upon the car in moments though.
Dpayne: Over.
Aden: I shove the keys into his chest.
Aden: Over.
Barrett: i close the back door
Barrett: over.
Devereaux: I start the car and drive off in the direction Ping left.
PingYu: I haven't left.

Dpayne: You barely manage to get the car started and slam on the gas and head away from the women. You hear loud thuds as their weapons slam into your vehicle while you exit.
Dpayne: Over.
Dpayne: Ping?
Barrett: they probably don't attack her because she's a chick.
Dpayne: Oh you could kick their bikes over, but you doubt their ability to start them up and follow after you if you guys leave now.
PingYu: Oh, ok.
PingYu: I'll head off then, and keep the car in view as well as my distance from any of the mob.
PingYu: Over.
Aden: I put my cane on the dashboard and manually lift my bad leg up there as well, followed by my good one, then recline the seat. 'Fine, let this scumbag asshole drive ME around,' think.
Aden: Over.
Dpayne: Ping lucks out in that fortunately the mob was so focused on Aden and Dev they didn't see her.
Dpayne: She takes a roundabout root, yet quickly manages to catch the tale of the speeding dented car.
Dpayne: The dykes are now no longer in sight, but certainly still in mind.
Dpayne: over.
PingYu: I curse under my breath the fact that I don't have a cellphone or any of their phone numbers.
PingYu: Over.
Devereaux: I'm still fuming over the situation in general.
Devereaux: "We're going to my place first," I say.
Devereaux: I head to my apartment.

Aden: Aden definitely does not care about being in a car wreck.
Devereaux: I hope we flip it.
PingYu: Poor Barrett.
Barrett: I take my notebook out of my backpack and record the events at the bar. after I finish that I flip a few pages to a sketch in progress of what appears to a be a four-armed skeleton with strips of muscle connecting them to the torso.
Barrett: I also put on my seatbelt.
Aden: I need that Willpower point back anyway...
Barrett: over.
Dpayne: You lose control of the car, and it begins spinning wildly and sliding, it suddenly flips and begins rolling.

PingYu: SHIT
Aden: *final shot of Thelma and Louise*
PingYu: Can I jump off my bike?
Devereaux: I hope we fucking collide with Ping.
Devereaux: This ... is how our coterie ends.
PingYu: You better not hope that, because I will kill you.
Dpayne: Ping loses control of her bike attempting to avoid the rolling car.
Dpayne: She does not have time to escape and the bike slams into the rolling vehicle which seconds later comes to a stop,
Dpayne: Ping roll dex+athletics difficulty 10.
PingYu: Uggh
PingYu: Difficulty 10?

Dpayne: The rest of you are dazed, but relatively unhurt, you take 2 levels of bashing damage.
Dpayne: I rolled the soak.
PingYu: Oh, ok.
Barrett: does our car still work?
PingYu: I'll burn off 4 more blood points to heal.
Dpayne: No.

Dpayne: Ping's bike is still functional though.
Barrett: I get out of the car.
Dpayne: She took the brunt of the impact.

Dpayne: And one of the mirrors of gone.

Devereaux: I crawl out the driver side window and onto the side of the road.
Aden: Actually, fuck that.
Aden: I'll keep my damage.
Aden: This is wonderful sensation.
Aden: And definitely alleviates my anger.
Dpayne: Well aside from the fact that all the tires seem to be blown, the car might still be useable if flipped.
Dpayne: So just a damage check.
Dpayne: Ping is healed.
Dpayne: Dev has 3 bashing.
Aden: So I'll just crawl out and stand and smile.
Dpayne: Aden has 2 bashing.
Dpayne: An Barrett has 2 bashing.
Aden: Three bashing.
Aden: I took one during the fight that I never healed.
PingYu: I have 1 bashing
Barrett: A car with no tires will drive like shit though. Are there any other parked cars around?
Aden: Well, two bashing, one lethal.
Dpayne: Ah, okay.
PingYu: From a botch during the fight.
Devereaux: I still never figured out how health works.
Aden: read the book ...
Dpayne: PIng sits for a moments as her bones and limbs snap back into place.
Devereaux: I am!
Barrett: I heal my 2 points of damage
Barrett: over.
PingYu: Did they all crawl out?
Aden: You have minus one on all dice pools until you heal Vinny.
Dpayne: After a few seconds she is miraculously healthy, although perhaps a little more wary of her companions driving.
PingYu: Yes, I want to attack Devereaux when he gets out.
Dpayne: Everyone slowly makes their way out of the wreckage of the car.
Aden: How far are we from the park?
Dpayne: Ping, how do you want to attack Devereaux?
PingYu: I want to Ushiro Kesa Gatame on him. It's a backwards scarf hold.
Dpayne: Well, you're back in the city limits, you estimate about 20 minute walk to the park, 5 minute drive.
PingYu: Presumably he's on the ground, right?
Devereaux: I'm lying down, yes.

Dpayne: Ping leaps from her position and with catlike grace gets Devereaux into a backwards scarf hold.
Barrett: haha
Dpayne: The dazed Devereaux suddenly realizes maybe he should be a better drive.
Dpayne: driver
Dpayne: Do you two wish to engage in combat?

Dpayne: He manages to squeek that out.
Dpayne: Over.
FagBigot [asdf@hide-F272E5BE.dsl.pltn13.sbcglobal.net] entered the room.
PingYu: "Know that I have the power to end you if I should ever see fit. I trust you'll be more careful in the future, and keep your senseless bickering to a minimum."
Barrett: how long has it been since we talked to large marge and we crashed the car?
PingYu: I'm going to slightly tighten my hold to punctuate that statement, then release him and look at Aden.
Dpayne: Probably about 10 minutes since you last saw Marge.
Dpayne: However, she didn't specify a time, so you realize her home might be in the park.
Barrett: I decide to pick up the pace and jog to the park.
Barrett: over.
Dpayne: So perhaps being late isn't such of an issue.
Aden: Didn't she say be there in half an hour?
Aden: Anyway.
Aden: I fold my arms and spit on the ground in defiance when Ping looks at me.
Aden: Over.
Dpayne: Did she!
Dpayne: Wow
PingYu: "What did the big one tell you?" Over.
Dpayne: My log doesn't go back that far.
Dpayne: Anyway if I said half an hour you have half an hour.
Devereaux: Is Ping still on top of me?
PingYu: I let go of you.
Devereaux: OK
Devereaux: I grind my teeth in anger and frustration.
Aden: I'll ignore Ping and start walking to the park.
Aden: Over.
PingYu: Also, I'm not taking any revenge against Aden because I view him as saving my life in that battle, but after what he's caused I consider the debt repaid.
PingYu: roll 5#d10

Devereaux: Over.
PingYu: I fish into my pockets.
PingYu: Over.
Aden: you fuck with aden, he flip your car ...
Dpayne: So are you all walking to the park now?
Dpayne: Remember Ping's motorcycle is still functional.
PingYu: I'll right my bike and hop on it.
PingYu: Over.
Devereaux: I follow them, but stay behind them a few yards.
PingYu: And wait for Aden, since I have no idea where I'm going.
PingYu: Over.
Aden: Haha.
Aden: Your bike is going to be going DAMN SLOW.
Dpayne: So you are all making your way to the park now.
Dpayne: Barrett, you arrive at the park and realize you've somehow managed to make it a few minutes early.
Dpayne: You gaze up and see the omnipresent darkness of the park, and notice that the door is still locked.
Dpayne: The gate to the park I mean.
Dpayne: bleh
Barrett: what door?
Barrett: Oh
Barrett: Were we supposed to meet Marge at the gate?
Aden: Is the park in Sabbat territory?
Dpayne: The park is no-man's land, but lies within Sabbat territory mostly.
Dpayne: It also has an entrance from the Camarilla end of the city.
Devereaux: How tall is the gate?
Dpayne: Barrett, you see off in the distance your three companions looking worse for the wear making their way towards you.
Dpayne: It's a large, elaborately decorated city park gate.
Dpayne: It's about 10 feet high.
Aden: Remember, Devereaux, you are injured.
PingYu: I'm going to look for some hidden place to stow my motorcycle and continue on foot.
Aden: Character suffers minor injuries and movement is mildly inhibited, (halve maximum
Aden: running speedy).
Devereaux: I know.
Barrett: I stand at the gate and wait for my party and large marge to arrive.
Barrett: over.
Aden: So if you try to jump the gate and fail, Aden will laugh and crush your balls under his foot.
Barrett: roll 4#d10
dicebot: Barrett rolled 4#d10 --> [ 1d10=6 ]{6}, [ 1d10=4 ]{4}, [ 1d10=3 ]{3}, [ 1d10=8 ]{8}
Devereaux: The walk has given me time to collect myself. Using controlled breaths, I quell my emotions and resume my former demeanor.
Devereaux: Noticing the gate is locked and that scaling it would be difficult in my condition, I step back and look over towards Barrett.
Devereaux: "Hey, kid. Come over here."
Devereaux: Over.
Barrett: For a moment I'm lost in thought but I look up finally and approach Devereaux.
Dpayne: Sorry!
Devereaux: "This ... is going to sound strange."
Devereaux: "Do you know how to open this door?"
Devereaux: Over.
Barrett: "....Ring is in the roses, park is full of puppies, ashes.. ashes, we all get burned alive."
PingYu: My ears perk up at this.
PingYu: Over.
Barrett: roll 4#d10
dicebot: Barrett rolled 4#d10 --> [ 1d10=2 ]{2}, [ 1d10=5 ]{5}, [ 1d10=7 ]{7}, [ 1d10=1 ]{1}
Devereaux: A chill runs through me upon hearing the words.
Aden: I just close my eyes in peace at hearing the part about being burned alive.
Aden: Over.
Dpayne: All of you notice a homeless man in tattered rags making his way towards the park gate.
Dpayne: He nods at you all gruffly.
Dpayne: Over.
PingYu: I'm going to walk towards him, and try to feed when I get close.
PingYu: Over.
Barrett: I step in front of Ping
Dpayne: He quickly turns at you and flashes a row of brown dirty teeth.
Barrett: And approach the homeless man myself.
Dpayne: "You don't want none of this blood, ma'am, ain't nothing but rot."
Dpayne: over.
Barrett: "You are a friend of King?" I ask the man.
PingYu: roll 3#d10
dicebot: PingYu rolled 3#d10 --> [ 1d10=5 ]{5}, [ 1d10=7 ]{7}, [ 1d10=9 ]{9}
Dpayne: "Every wanderer of the street's is a friend of King, young 'un. Yes we are."
Barrett: "We need to speak with him. Can you lead us to his camp?"
Dpayne: "Well I might be willing to for a favor. I have had a good bottle of wine in years, bring be something from the 70s with chateau in the name, and I'll teach how to get into and out of the park anytime you want kids.
Dpayne: "
Dpayne: Devereaux roll Perception + Alertness difficulty 5.
Dpayne: Aden you roll it difficulty 4.
Devereaux: roll 4#d10
dicebot: Devereaux rolled 4#d10 --> [ 1d10=5 ]{5}, [ 1d10=5 ]{5}, [ 1d10=3 ]{3}, [ 1d10=4 ]{4}
Aden: Perhaps... L'Chateau Emptie...
***Aden rolls 8 10-sided dice: 5 5 8 8 4 4 1 4
Barrett: What time is it in game?
Dpayne: About 10:30.
Barrett: Do I know of any liquor stores in the area?
PingYu: "What's the problem with just going in?"
PingYu: Over
Dpayne: The old man looks at you, Ping.
Dpayne: "Ask the little on, hee hee!"
PingYu: I turn to Barrett and wait for an explanation.
Devereaux: "There's a fine wine store downtown."
Dpayne: "And don't bring me no cheap booze, I ain't no drunk. I just enjoys me the finer things."
Devereaux: "Ping, give me the keys to your bike and I'll go get it."
Devereaux: Over
Aden: I hold my cane out to stop him.
PingYu: I'm going to ignore Devereaux and wait for an explanation.
PingYu: Over.
Aden: I shake my head, then point to myself.
Aden: Over.
Barrett: "it's difficult to explain but there appears to be some dark forces at work that choose who may come and go. Forcing our way in would be very difficult."
PingYu: "Ah..."
Aden: I tap my cane to the ground impatiently.
PingYu: I'll toss the keys to the motorcycle on the ground in between Aden and Devereaux.
PingYu: Over.
Aden: I watch to quickly swipe them to me with my cane.
Aden: But Devereaux is probably faster.
Devereaux: I roll my eyes.
Aden: Although, more apathetic.
Devereaux: "I'm not going to fight over who gets to drive."
Devereaux: "I'll walk. It's obvious moving around is a burden for you."
Devereaux: I head in the direction of the wine shop I mentioned before.
Aden: I shake my head.
Aden: Well.
PingYu: I'm slightly disappointed that they didn't fight over the keys.
Barrett: While they figure this out I approach the homeless guy again and talk to him.
Devereaux: roll 4#d10
dicebot: Devereaux rolled 4#d10 --> [ 1d10=6 ]{6}, [ 1d10=10 ]{10}, [ 1d10=7 ]{7}, [ 1d10=5 ]{5}
Devereaux: I pause my gait and smile to myself.
Aden: I hobble onto Ping's bike and attempt to swerve in front of him.
Aden: Over.
Dpayne: So, you all still have an appointment with Marge, and you need to obtain the bottle of wine.
Dpayne: It's split up time guys.
Dpayne: Also just as a friendly reminder whoever stays behind should probably hold onto the werewolf hair.
Aden: They'll have to take it from me.
Aden: Because I want to do it all myself.
PingYu: Marge is going to meet us outside the park?
Dpayne: The park is huge, based on what she said, the main entrance to the park is the only logical place you could meet and find her.
PingYu: Oh.
PingYu: I guess I assumed we were trying to get in in order to meet her.
Dpayne: Is that why Barrett wanted to go in?
Dpayne: HOHOHOHOHOHO!
Aden: I also assumed that.
Aden: Gawwwd
Dpayne: The old man shrugs.
Aden: All right, so what is happening?
PingYu: I'm not getting the wine if we don't need it in order to meet marge.
Dpayne: "If you don't want in, I'll just go see the roses in the park meself."
Dpayne: over.
PingYu: Oh shit
PingYu: SHIT
PingYu: That slipped my mind.
Aden: idiot ...
Aden: retard ...
PingYu: baka ...
Aden: Yeah, I'm pretty sure I want to stay here too now.
Aden: Contrary to everything I have done.
PingYu: I'm going to go with whoever is getting the wine, since I'm more concerned with getting into the park now.
Aden: I see.
Aden: OK, take your bike.,
Aden: I'm staying at the gates for Marge.
Dpayne: 2 people can fit on Ping's bike.
Aden: AND I CERTAINLY WASN'T LETTING DEVEREAUX RIDE WITH ME
PingYu: Yeah, I'll take Devereaux if he still wants to get the wine.
Barrett: I'll wait with Aden
Devereaux: I'll go with Ping.
Aden: Oh, before Ping goes.
PingYu: (since I'm not familiar with where it is)
Aden: I'll take out my notebook.
Dpayne: The old man yawns and curls up in front of the gate and falls asleep.
Dpayne: over.
Aden: Tear out a page, write SAY IT'S FOR CARMELLA on it and hand it to her.
Aden: Then limp back to the gate and glare with intense aggravation at the bum.
Aden: Over.
PingYu: I read the note and stuff it into a pocket. And wait for Devereaux to hop on.
PingYu: Over.
Devereaux: I begrudgingly ride bitch.
Devereaux: Over.
Aden: they're gonna fuck ...
Aden: he's gonna get hard, when the motorcycle vibrates ...
Dpayne: Alright Devereaux and Ping join #CsFineWine
Aden: Is there someone who can log that there?
PingYu: Yes
Aden: OK.
Aden: Sigh...
Dpayne: Aden, Barret, you wait a few more minutes after Ping and Devereaux leave, and suddenly see Large Marge approach you alone.
Dpayne: Over.
Aden: I run my cane along the bars of the gate.
Aden: Oh.
Aden: I wave her over.
Aden: Over.
Aden: Theldorrin and Vinny should leave, right?
PingYu left the room (Kicked by Aden (getting her fuck on)).
PingYu [~Feuilly@hide-CD2FB3DD.dsl.teksavvy.com] entered the room.
Aden: oh nooooo
PingYu left the room.
Dpayne: Theldorrin and Vinny probably should leave.
Devereaux left the room (Kicked by Aden (getting his shit on)).
dicebot left the room (Kicked by Aden (FUCK YOU, DICEBOT)).
FagBigot: Dicebot!
Aden: Dicebot is a PERISCOPE FOR CHEATING.
Dpayne: Marge approaches and begins speaking.,
Dpayne: "It's good to see that the one in your group with a shred of decency is the one to meet me."
Dpayne: She looks directly at Aden when she says this.
Aden: I avoid eye contact with her self-consciously.
Dpayne: "First, I must tell you, I owe you a boon. I will do this favor for you, and one day, in the future, you will come to me for help."
Dpayne: "Then we will be even."
Dpayne: "Now why were you at the bar?"
Dpayne: over.
Aden: I reach into my pocket and retrieve the hair. I show it to her without letting go of it.
Aden: Over.
Dpayne: Hmm, well just glancing at it, it does look like wolf hair.
Dpayne: She says upon seeing the hair.
Dpayne: "But I need to smell it to give you a definitive answer on anything."
Dpayne: "And I still don't know what to really tell you."
Dpayne: over.
Aden: I kick Barrett to speak up for me.
Aden: Over.
Barrett: "If you wouldn't mind."
Barrett: I suggest towards her smelling the wolf hair.
Aden: Over?
Barrett: over.
Aden: I shake my head and, with my thumb, pantomime slitting my throat and being dead, at him.
Aden: Over.
Dpayne: You suddenly see Marge shift and grunt and in seconds a large greay wolf with a black stripe down the middle sits before you.
Dpayne: It pushes it's face towards the fur and begins sniffing.
Dpayne: You both realize this might take a minute or two.
Dpayne: Over.
Aden: I sigh and drop the hair on the ground to let her sniff, praying we can trust her with it.
Aden: With my hands free, I get my notebook out and write FOUND ON THE PRINCE'S BODY, and hold it in her line of sight.
Aden: Over.
Barrett: I whisper "We may benefit from witholding some facts until they need to be known."
Aden: Real smooth.
Dpayne: The wolf stops sniffing.
Dpayne: It looks at Barrett and then shakes it's head.
Dpayne: It suddenly begins to shift and change.
Dpayne: Except instead of the large bulking form of Marge before, you see a petite, yet relatively tall girl with long white hair with a black stripe down the middle.
Dpayne: She is actually quite feminine and striking.
Dpayne: "This isn't werewolf hair."
Dpayne: She says quite drankly.
Dpayne: frankly
Dpayne: Bleh
Dpayne: Over.
Aden: I quickly take the hair back into my pocket and scrunch my face at her.
Aden: Over.
Barrett: "Do you know where the hair may have come from?"
Dpayne: "Oh this person has been around werewolves, that's for sure, but it's not werewolf hair."
Dpayne: "Well there was a disting faint smell of sulfur."
Dpayne: "And if you look closely you see bright streaks of red in the hair."
Dpayne: "If that means anything."
Dpayne: over.
Barrett: I look at the hair for a moment and then look up at marge. "would you be able to identify the owner of this hair if you could smell another item they've touched?
Dpayne: "Probably."
Dpayne: over.
Dpayne: "Well I don't know about identity, but I could tell you more about them."
Dpayne: "A man's scent can tell you a lot about them."
Dpayne: "Sulphur though, that's a strange one..."
Dpayne: over.
Aden: I'm looking at the kid for any bright ideas.
Aden: Over.
Barrett: "hmm...would you be willing to come with me for a few minutes? It may be nothing but perhaps it's worth a try." I ask marge.
Dpayne: "I will tell you this, to the trained eye, this would've been obviously not werewolf hair. So your being sent after wolves wasn't for your health."
Dpayne: "Kid, I've got to make sure the person your friend burned alive actually starts healing her wounds."
Dpayne: "It's going to take her weeks to get better."
Dpayne: "But... tomorrow... Come to me tomorrow at this address, and I can help you both out."
Barrett: "I see. Thank you."
Dpayne: She scribbles an address down on a slip of paper and then hands it to you.
Aden: To who?
Dpayne: Whoever takes it.
Dpayne: She's handing it to you though.
Dpayne: Aden.
Aden: I'll take it, copy it into my notebook, then drop it for Barrett.
Barrett: I take it and put it into my backpack.
Barrett: over.
Aden: Is there any way I could contact Vasquez ... or even the blond Camarilla rep?
Dpayne: Do you have a phone?
Aden: No.
Dpayne: Then now.
Aden: In my apartment, I do.
Dpayne: no, bleh
Aden: But, uh, I can't talk.
Aden: If I knew where they'd were, I'd go there, even if it meant heading into Camarilla territory.
Aden: I need answers.
Aden: Over.
Aden: they
Barrett: "You need to contact Vasquez..."
Barrett: "Very well. Follow me." I walk across the street.
Aden: Wow, this kid's good!
Aden: I nod to Marge and begrudgingly follow Barrett.
Aden: Over.
Dpayne: Marge nods and leaves.
Dpayne: Aden roll Intelligence+Occult difficulty 7.
***Aden rolls 5 10-sided dice: 6 4 8 2 8
Dpayne: You realize that before you looms the home of Arch Bishop Vykos, the Blood Den.
Dpayne: However, you have no idea how to gain entry to the ominous building.
Dpayne: Over.
Aden: Do I see the door?
Barrett: I bring Aden to the door.
Aden: Man, how can this help me?
Aden: I need answers, and Vykos is missing!
Dpayne: You see the door, but that doesn't mean you can so easily gain entry.
Barrett: "Vasquez has assumed archbishop Vykos' command."
Dpayne: The living mansion only opens for those Vykos wishes it to.
Barrett: I approach the door.
Barrett: over.
Aden: I eye everything suspiciously.
Aden: Over.
Dpayne: The front door opens, you both notice that the building is dark and empty. inside, the usual Bishop's court are nowhere to be found.
Dpayne: Over.
Barrett: My eyes narrow in suspicion but I enter.
Aden: Yes, I continue following Barrett
Aden: Over.
Barrett: over.
Dpayne: You enter the dark forboding building, you both hear the scurrying of what Barrett assumes to be Szchlatka.
Dpayne: There is no greeting, all you both feel in here is death.
Dpayne: Before you sits the darkened boncrafted halls of a crumbling empire.
Barrett: "Aden, can you provide some light?"
PingYu [~Feuilly@hide-CD2FB3DD.dsl.teksavvy.com] entered the room.
Devereaux [Vinny@hide-79E680D4.hsd1.wv.comcast.net] entered the room.
