Part 1: Happy Hour

Zoey squirms a bit before forcing a smile at the G-modded woman. "But something tells me you've got a good doc... You some kind of bounty hunter?"
Nov 27, 2019 3:19 pm
Sathra smiles at Zoey "For cosmetic work yes but it always pays to have other options in case of emergencies. As for my profession, well, let's leave that for another time if our paths cross again"
OOC:
What is everyone else doing?
Nov 27, 2019 3:29 pm
"I'm sure they will" Aditi's response is very matter-of-fact, neither antagonistic nor cheerful in any way. She's not excited about having to repay her debt but she also has less of a problem with being indebted to Sathra than most of her friends would probably have. Part of freedom is the freedom to choose whom you serve.
She turns to Zoey. "We should go outside, join the others. They should know who it is that's threatening Simon."
OOC:
I'm sure this conversation took longer than it took for the others outside to make their perception roll. Aditi will head outside but you decide when she actually arrives there. If she misses the whole combat (if one is about to happen), that's fine with me and would probably make sense.

OOC:
It was a pretty short conversation so you're not far behind them, relative positioning will depend on how Tam and Mila react to what they heard
Nov 27, 2019 5:17 pm
Zoey gives the Snake a purse-lipped grin and follows Aditi out the door. Once out of earshot, she whispers, "Be careful, 'Diti. You've got a good bedside manner, right? Next time use that? Not sure I'm eager for when that Snake comes a-calling..."
Nov 28, 2019 3:47 pm
Mila glances at Tam. It sounds like this guy is in a bit of trouble, but she's still not sure it's worth getting into a fight over him. "I've got your back, Tam," she says in an undertone. "If you think we should help him, I'll be right behind you."

OOC:
Will give Squadfather44 until tomorrow to respond and will then move things along
Dec 5, 2019 12:56 pm
Tam and Mila move round the side of La Raiz and find yourselves in a long, enclosed passageway, filled with garbage bins and discarded trash, and lined with sealed doors that lead into the interior of the starscraper. About ten meters away, Leander has been slammed up against the wall by a brute in a stained T-shirt and ripped pants. He’s backed up by a few more toughs wearing aviator sunglasses and leather jackets.
The big guy turns slightly, and you can see he’s holding Leander about two feet up with a massive, powered gauntlet that envelops the brute's arm all the way to the shoulder. "Beat it," he growls.

OOC:
Can Aditi and Zoey catch up? We know where they went?
Dec 5, 2019 8:07 pm
OOC:
We're probably a bit behind since we had this other conversation first. I assume they'll get a chance to act before we catch up
Dec 5, 2019 8:13 pm
She may not know this Simon guy from a hole in the ground, but Mila is not a fan of watching someone get beat down. "You're a big man, beating down a guy half your size with a fancy toy," she says to the brute, flexing her cybernetic arm. "Why don't you put him down before you break a nail?"
Dec 10, 2019 11:30 am
"Fancy toy?!?!" the big guy says angrily before slamming Leander into the wall with a sickening crunch. Tossing his limp form to the ground, he starts lumbering towards you shouting "Look what you made me do, you'll pay for that!" as he moves the other thugs in the alley also begin moving.
OOC:
Let's have initiative. This is kicking off just as Zoey and Aditi exit the bar (they hear the thugs shouts as they step out). As Mila was ready for things kicking off she needs to make a Simple Cool skill check, Zoey and Aditi will need to make a Simple Vigilance check as they were not expecting to step out into a fight. I'm going to say that Tam will act at the end of the round.

All PC's are at Medium range to the thugs and where Simon is laying, Zoey and Aditi do not have a direct line of sight to where the Thugs are currently so would need to us a manoeuvre to get eyes on their current position (may change if the Thugs go first)

OOC:
I think Simple means one purple die so that's what I'll roll. I have 3 Willpower and 1 Vigilance, so in total I'll roll 1 yellow, 2 green and 1 purple.
Hope that's correct

OOC:
Actually Simple is a check with no difficulty dice included (Initiative checks will virtually always be Simple tests). Difficulty levels are as follows:

Simple: None
Easy: 1 x Difficulty/Purple die
Average: 2 x Difficulty/Purple dice
Hard: 3 x Difficulty/Purple dice
Daunting: 4 x Difficulty/Purple dice
Formidible: 5 x Difficulty/Purple dice

OOC:
Alright, just ignore the purple one then

Ok, finalised initiative order is as follows:

Initiative Order
PC - we're here
PC -
NPC -
PC -
NPC -
PC (Tam) -

The slots are ordered from highest number of Successes on the initiative check to lowest with Advantages used to break ties (if still tied a PC would go ahead of an NPC). Characters can act on any slot of their type (PC or NPC) not just the one that corresponds to what they rolled. In a turn you can take an Action and a Manoeuvre at no cost, if you wanted to perform a second Manoeuvre you can either swap your action for one (again at no cost) or if you still want to perform an Action as well as 2 Manoeuvres you can but you need to pay 2 Strain to do so.

If you're not sure what actions and manoeuvres are available to you just outline what you'd like to do and I'll tell you what you need to accomplish that.

First PC slot is up, who want's to take it?

OOC:
Mila should probably go first since she's right in the middle of the action. Zoey can go second and I can go after the first NPC. Aditi is not eager to get into a fight
Dec 10, 2019 3:50 pm
Mila watches the thug's testosterone-fueled meltdown as she grabs a convenient length of pipe from the rubbish nearby and assumes a defensive stance. "Bring it on."
OOC:
Guarded Stance (assuming that's still a thing in Genesys) to gain +1 melee defense and picking up an improvised melee weapon (I'll spend a story point if necessary for there to be one conveniently at hand).
