"Chase us where? We are in another country! Do you think they let us book a flight for her and not checking the airport? The plan should be a better thought out before we starting to sabotage government vehicles.
What do we suggest we do after getting her and she doesn't use her powers to fight us?" Frost asks, not yet impressed by Uomo.

"Well you are right on the fact that they won't book us a flight. I suppose we have our own transportation devices somewhere else. Perhaps I'm used to work with more shady organizations, that's why I thought we would at least have a car to take us to Uruguay, Paraguay or Argentina. I guess we'll have to subdue her if she turns against us, with life leeching powers, I'll not risk my neck. She'll understand with time that we are only trying to help her. Excuse me if I give things for certain, as I said, perhaps I have to lower myself to more accessible lines of thinking so you can follow." Russian Uomo says. "We do have means of transportation, right, comrade William?"

Terry Quinlan, The Grid

Terry sidesteps the question of transportation for now, laying out his own capabilities in the situation.

"If they have any kind of cameras, I can tap into those as if they were my own eyes," he says. "I can see anything they can. And if I can talk to their machines, I should be able to convince them to help us out. Or, if I can get some spare parts, I may just be able to come up with a jury-rigged jammer.

If we know what room she's in, I also shouldn't have much trouble getting in there. I mean, so long as she hasn't covered up all her outlets. Of course, I'm not sure I want to surprise a girl with a death touch by jumping out of the wall socket."

OOC: I've not used the Inventor advantage before, and don't have my books in front of me, but I'm guessing that with that and Improvised Tools, Terry ought to have a fair chance at coming up with a jammer if his 'chat' with any surveillance equipment doesn't go well.

"I have not entered the building, as I do not want to be noted, and your frosty friend is correct, A chase would end badly unless you are willing to deal with the agents.. aggressively. I have a truck, but if the agents get out word or worse - descriptions - of you, you'll have great difficulty crossing the borders."

He turns to Grid "I do not know which room she has, but if you can tap into their computers, locating her should be a breeze, and as for surprising her, you could come out in an unoccupied room nearby and then walk in so to not startle her."

JKason - If you want to try convincing the military-issue machinery to help you, you'll have to roll persuasion. Sensing through their cameras would require a Tech check to 'hack in', but with skill mastery you have 27, which is more than enough.
A Jamming invention would also be doable, but take time.
What does Grid do?

And finally, Does Shayuri have any input?

"Such a complete lack of logistics! This is outrageous!" protests Uomo. "If you want to hack into something, you should hack into that van first, and see what they are hiding in it. Then we can proceed to the hotel. We need masks or other means to conceal ourselves, in the unlike event that we are spotted. Is there a costume shop around here? Like for a disguise party?"

OOC: Yes, I'm thinking on making the hit disguised as a clown .

 

[jkason]

"Well, gimme a sec to listen in, might point me in the right direction for some camera hacking..." the young man says. He cocks his head to one side, going silent as he listens for radio traffic...

JKason - If you want to try convincing the military-issue machinery to help you, you'll have to roll persuasion.

D'oh! I'd been assuming the 'use technology as an interaction skill' part of Comprehend Machines would apply to those sorts of checks. Terry doesn't actually have any ranks in Persuasion. He's probably better off trying to make a regular hacking check in that case.

Sensing through their cameras would require a Tech check to 'hack in', but with skill mastery you have 27, which is more than enough.

Scanning my sheet to see if I had any persuasion, I noticed he has Radio Sense, so figured I'd try that first. My assumption is that their radio chatter is similarly encrypted to the cameras, but that the skill mastery check would likewise be the same.

So, first listen, then look, then report both back to the others before doing anything else.[/sblock]

 

[Shayuri]

"They're just watching her," Cassandra mutters. "They're waiting for something. Do you think this could be a set-up? But why though? Maybe they were tipped? Or what if they already got to her? She could be working for them now."

She grimaces. "Yeah...masks. I wasn't thinking before. It's not like we had 'super costumes' or anything, but we could have...okay. I'm not much help in the recon-gathering thing. I can go buy some stuff to use as costumes though."

Frost

"Shall I accompany you? Freezing things isn't great for recon, either. And it is maybe better we are not moving around alone. Do you speak Spanish? I know I do not." Frost responds to Cassandra.

"Spanish won't take you anywhere here I'm afraid. Brazilians speak Portuguese." notes Uomo.

"See, I'm totally clueless!"
