I'm happy to end it (Checkmate doesn't want his car to get wrecked) but if the others want to go back and fight I wouldn't object.

The 'Mericar drives along loudly as the rim scrapes against the concrete. But you all seem to have lost your ambushers.
Eventually mapquest announces your arrival at the location of the Red Eye. You are a block away from the location. It is a burned out nursing home. Heavy bas can be felt/heard from a block away. The lights are all out. The windows are boarded up. The front door has a spray painted red eye on it.

Remind me what the cost of the antiviral was? I know you gave us a chance to retcon some, but things went by too fast and I didn't get a chance to go back and look. Wyvern has 11k, so would have bought some if she could afford it.

here's a copy of the post...[ +- ] antiviral
"Drek Lu, you skip the foreplay and jump right in don't you! Ya got to warm things up before you jump into ghouls and drek." Mei says teasingly. "But seriously, you ain't joking. I know. If you need it fast then it will be expensive. I need to pay the dock loaders here to accidentally lose a package... or three. Then I need to pay off the guy in control of asset management." She then pauses a bit. Sends a link:
O-cells, or Omega cells, function as enhanced lymphocytes (white blood cells) integrated into the body’s auto-immune system. O-cells are gene-modified and augmented from T- and B-cells, which are part of the body’s adaptive immune system. These natural cell types retain a record of previous infections so that they can mount a quicker and stronger response to the culprit antigen(s) or pathogen in cases of re-infection. Unlike natural lymphocytes, which only store memories of previous infections (or inoculations) O-cell soft nanites come equipped with broad-spectrum pharmacological microdoses and an inbuilt library of responses to a wide array of common pathogens.
"These are probably what you are looking for. We have them in 3 ratings: 1, 2 and 3. They cost 5,000, 10,000 and 15,000 nu-big-ones respectfully."
She gets quiet for a moment. "Ghouls are a nasty business. Nothing is foolproof. You sure you know what your are getting into?"

You get the rating in extra dice to resist pathogens. Also if I call for an edge check for catching a disease I will let you use the rating to help out. They will stay in your system a number of weeks x rating.

The booming bass hammers Checkmate's aching head. It seemed auditory assault was Seattle's latest fancy. For a frustrated moment he stares at the darkened building, thinking it might have all been in vain, before comprehension clicked. "Oh of course they wouldn't," he mutters. "The blind bastards wouldn't be want to be too inviting. Well, want to go find out who's home?" He climbs out of the car, the rain and the sight of the damaged 'Mericar further dampening his mood. "At least no-one's going jack the damn car now. Even in the Barrens they have too much self-respect for that."
OOC:
If no-one has any other ideas, Checkmate is going to 'police knock' on the door and immediately take a big step back.
Sep 5, 2018 11:27 pm
Just before Checkmate knocks on the door, Lu stops him..."Wait, I think I have an idea. Instead of going in cop-like, we could go in as would-be customers. I could be looking to get "transformed" and drop Gerald Mosshammer's name as a hook for the idea. How about it ? We should have less trouble that way and have more chance to get in contact with someone who knew him."
Sep 6, 2018 3:52 pm
"Ok, then I'll be the customer and you'll be friends supporting me, making sure I don't fall into a scam." Lu knocks on the door a few times, loud enough to be heard above the music, but not aggressively as cops would do...
Sep 7, 2018 1:58 am
The door opens slightly to reveal a humanoid with pink eyes. His skin is mottled and tinged green and he has sores on his face. An awful smell wafts over you as he opens the door. "What do you fraggin' want?" The bas thumps much louder with the door open.
Sep 7, 2018 11:12 am
Lu takes a visible deep breath, as if he was nervous and trying to calm down. "I'll say it bluntly, I want to be transformed and I remembered a old friend of mine, Gerry, maybe you know him ? His full name his Gerald Mosshammer, anyway, I remembered he told me of this place and, I wanted to ask him for more info but I haven't been able to reach him so I told myself "what the hell, just go there yourself!!", so here I am. And I'm still a little nervous because some dudes threw grenades at our car a few blocks off. I'm just happy a few friends came with me so I'm not alone..."

"Don't know who the frag yer talkin' about but you guys look like drek... and there've been a couple of attacks in the last two weeks. How the frag did you survive?" He then seems to stare at Lu. "Oh... yer awakened. Well come the frag in and look for whoever." He opens the door and lets you three in.
Inside the bas is louder and the smell is smellier. The walls are covered in graffiti. The hallway leads to a large open room in the middle of the burned out complex. Lights are dim. The place is smokey. A ghoulish man is lying on the ground groaning holding his stomach. He seems not to notice anyone or anything.
The large room has about fifty or so people. Some are swaying to the music. Some are talking in makeshift booths. A bar is across the room. Hanging from hooks you see a deer, a dog and a cat. Their necks are sliced open and blood is dripping into glass bottles. A human also sits behind the bar. He has an IV plugged into one vein in atm and a tube dripping blood from another. He has that zombie face of a BTL addict currently getting a hit. He is smiling and giggling.
A few of the patrons look at you all and snear. One extremely dirty ghoul sniffs you and walks away.

Lu steps inside with a smile, "Thanks". Once everybody's inside, he opens is senses astrally and looks around, especially the man lying on the ground groaning...
