Book 1: A New Day

Let's recap then. Misha is raiding the station. Diana is raiding the Umbra. Patrick has a gun and is supposed to be at the station. Paul will help with the distraction, (stealing the vending machine?), Alexander is ??? (maybe with Paul?), who is accompanying Diana? Is that everything? It sounds like we have three teams.

Ok, I think your recap is somewhat off.

1. The plan was never to STEAL the vending machine.
-- (Not sure where you came up with that. Those things weight upwards of 900 pounds AND they're big -- making them awkward to move by hand. You'd be hard pressed to make it 100 feet.

For context, a strength of 5 lets you lift 650 pounds, iirc.)

1B. If Paul wants to handle the distraction, BREAK the vending machine. Start yelling about it eating your money, kick it a bunch, tip it over. When cops come out, run.

2. We already established that Patrick isn't taking his gun into the station.

3. Diana and Rat Food can go in via Umbra.

4. Misha can take Alexander into the station.
-- (He has the size and strength to believably toss around cops while he's unarmed.)

5. I think we've all forgotten about Running Fish. Assuming he can drive, he can watch the cars? Or help Paul.

6. Patrick can disable cop cars while everyone else is doing their things? Since we agreed that should happen.

Did I miss anyone?

Seems the options have been discussed so we are pending a (most likely from Misha here) final decision so we can kick off the encounter.

Yes- delirium only happens with Crinos form, lupus people just see a normal wolf which could cause an uproar places wolves aren't expected to be, however just as often (and especially with bone gnawers like Rat Food) people just think it's a large wolf life dog- Bone Gnawers especially present this way intentionally because of their way of life as bums and strays.

It's on Paul to decide on the distraction and kick that off then.

Did we ever get Rite of Dedication performed, or is Paul naked as soon as he turns back?

Did he stash his clothes, or are they in a pile on the ground?

Why are you worrying about this stuff? I thought you wanted a distraction.

what’s a better distraction the a naked man running around shouting I am being sarcastic but I could work

Who said I was worried about it?

I just want to know if you're leaving a bunch of evidence at a crime scene for the police and any Vampires they're linked to. That's all.

I don't believe it happens when slipping sideways, but shifting forms you definitely "hulk out" of the clothes.
