Ok, this would be a team check and there's really no reason for you to fail. So...IC Guardians of Seattle

After a half hour of searching, you find a brown cardboard box in the alley behind the apartment complex. The bottom corners are wet and dark and a strong metallic smell assaults your noses. Opening the box, you see a severed human head.

" Hmm, well that's a pretty fucking strong message."
Taking a blanket out of my pack, I will look around the box to make sure there isn't a trap set magic or otherwise and respectively wrap the head in the blanket. After I will see if the box itself or the area around it may give us any other clues.

Looking around, you don't see any signs of struggle and there's not any other big pools of blood, aside from the box, so it doesn't look like he was killed here.
You also spot a fresh looking scuff on the dumpster next to it. It's a black scuff and is a bit oily to the touch.

Stony, when the smudge becomes apparent to him, gives it a good sniff, suspecting the Wyrm with all the talk of leeches earlier.

It doesn't smell like any wyrm taint you've smelled before. Instead, it smells like shoe polish.

"Hmm, seems there very little we can do about this at this time. We need to find shelter somewhere. Then maybe later we can get to hunting some leeches!"
OOC:
Could I make a streetwise/survival and wit or intelligence check to get a clue on where to look for a "safe" place to squat for the time being?Feb 5, 2019 3:20 pm
Stony passes on the shoe polish mystery, and endeavors to memorize the smell. "Girl. Protect?"

Yeah, go ahead. I think your difficulty is 6 if you're familiar with this city, 7 if you're not. I am not sure if your character is, from reading your backstory...Feb 6, 2019 2:18 pm
" That's would be wise Stones, if she needs our protection at all?" Taking a quick look back at Mia.
Thinking about my past experiences, I go looking for a street group to ask about local abandoned buildings.

I don't think that's a botch. You need 1s with no successes (before the 1s cancel), IIRC?Feb 6, 2019 2:29 pm
OOC:
Yep you're right, been a while. Rules say NO successes with 1's on the roll. Would I be able to tap some willpower here to generate some successes?Last edited February 6, 2019 2:40 pm

OOC:
Willpower is supposed to be used before the roll, IIRC. But, since we're at the beginning and getting a handle on the rules still, I'll say that's OK. And, you are correct, that's not a botch.Before you leave, Mia comes around the corner, having followed you from your apafrtment. "What's that?" she asks. "What did you find?"

OOC:
Nah I'm good, I'll keep to the rules(good lesson). So maybe it has been a while plus been playing it wrong :PJake then makes a hard effort to make sure she can't grab the head from him.

Mia's look of concern washes off her face in an instant as she stares at the head. The color drains from her face and her lower lip trembles, then her eyes roll up and her knees buckle and she slowly falls to the ground. A hollow thump sounds when her head hits the pavement.

Stony frowns. "I think that was too much." He picks her up, and stands easily. "We need a place that the Wyrm has not already corrupted."

Jake is still able to locate the warehouse where you can stay, but, unbeknownst to you, a pair of glowing eyes watches as you find your spot to rest there, and rushes off.

Konrad had been silent to this point, not what the pack was expecting from the Galliard. But it had been years since Konrad was last in Seattle, before his Change, and he was soaking in the city with his new senses. He gently lays Mia's unconscious form on the ground in a corner of their temporary home. "We need some sort of lead. And we can't just leave this poor woman here. Do we wait for her to wake and question her for potential contacts? Or take her back to the trailer and start a hunt from there?"

Setting the girl down somewhere flat in the warehouse, Stony says, "She's our only lead. When she wakes, we can ask her more."
