Coordinator Moretti's eyes narrow at Fury's opening barb, but he lets the man finish before responding.
"Mr. Furioso, at the present moment I'm dealing with the resolution and aftermath of a recent outbreak of undead, numerous instances of attacks by escaped and dangerous 'cargo' at the docks, accusations of poisoning by one of the city's alchemists, and an attempt to prevent a burgeoning and potentially crooked religion from establishing a hold within this city, just to name a small fraction of the issues among which I am distributing my time. So yes, if, when pursuing the more standard avenue of procuring a meeting with myself, there exists a fairly substantial delay, I should have hoped it would be met with a singly more understanding attitude." Moretti sighs, then continues.
"I would have hoped for something more substantial, but given your ties to the community and you, ahem, 'talents'" - it doesn't take an unusual level of perceptiveness to interpret this as a thinly veiled dig at the unsavory elements of Fury's identity as a Ranocchian - "I am nevertheless inclined to believe you when you say that there exists a real urgency in dealing with this Kraken threat." The Coordinator turns to Commander Parsons and says, "Commander, please see to it that Mr. Furioso is properly debriefed, and that an appropriately-sized force of men is dispatched to investigate this threat at once." The Coordinator turns back to Fury. "I trust that this will suffice, Mr. Furioso. Is there anything else?"
The implication that Fury is not to be directly involved with the investigation of the Kraken headquarters is not lost on Fury.
[sblock=OOC]Glad to be of help.
I've never played a rogue myself, but I've toyed around with a lot of character ideas and builds. I always seem to take Combat Trick as my first or second Rogue Talent, mainly because I find most of the options to be underwhelming. Although I'm not too familiar with the options added by Ultimate Combat.
From what you listed, Favored Terrain (Urban) would also be a good fit. Makes a lot of sense in Fury's case, and the bonuses are decent (although the initiative bonus is generally mitigated somewhat in our PbP format). I have really grown fond of the image of Fury as a sap wielder, though.[/sblock]
