[CoC] Nocturnum -- Part I - Chapter 1 Snowflake Valey [Completed]

James sniffles then snorts.

"Urk! Tastes like blood," he says, steadying himself upon his feet.

He takes a tissue from his pocket and wipes the drying blood from his face and ears. He then staggers clumsily back towards the hotel.

"Holy mother of f:):):)!" he says, realising its on fire, "I left all my s:):):) in there!"

He kicks the snow feebly, and groans quietly in disgust of the effort required to do so. He rumages through his pockets to find his car keys.

"Doc's rental's a bit fubar, how 'bout we all pile into mine? Plenty of room seein' as we don't have much luggage," he laughs bitterly but it comes out as more of a coughing fit, "I can't drive, someone else be kind enough to?"

Before he gives the keys to whoever accepts them first he unlocks the Hum-Vee and checks the trunk for a first-aid kit. He'll give it to whoever can make best use of it before climbing into the front passenger seat, reclining it and turning the radio on.

"I'm ready when you guys are," he says and leans back, closing his eyes to get some rest.

His eyes snap open again and as fast as a badly injured man can he makes his way to the enforcers' vehicles.

"They caused so much trouble, I think we take their stuff. F:):):) 'em, their souls can rot in hell, no decent person would ally themselves with that guy for any amount of money," he says as he pilfers through whatever possesions they had in the SUV's.

Once he's found everything of value and/or use he'll head back to pack the things into the Hum-Vee, a smug look written across his face should he find anything, and a rather irrate look should he find nothing. He discards the police revolver into the snow, not really entertaining the thought of keeping the weapon.

Doc looks around at the devastation. The burning hotel. The bodies. The blood and death.

So sad, and such a waste. He thought to himself. But this is what you reap when you deal with those things better left untouched or unknown.

Sighing, Doc turns to the group. "Let's get out of here, my friends. I know I'm an old man, but I feel infinitely older this evening."

And then Doc will jump in the Humvee, and head off into the sunset....
 

Jason, you just now (and really just now, I rolled for it like 5 times) realize that the enforcers are wearing blue parkas. The same as with the guys you saw at the start of the chapter in the foyer at the first night. The guys who dodgily made their escape in an SUV. You know now who committed that first murder and that it wasn't the werewolf.

You gave those bastards what they deserved, lying on the ground, face down in the snow. A cruel justice maybe, but they surely had it comming.

James sets on looting the cars and the bodies. He finds the following:

Car keys still in the contact of both SUV's
Two glock 17's
One Glock 18 (illigal and quite a rare weapon, not for sale in any normal gun shops. Have to be imported at least. This is about the only thing you can't stock up on for chapter two regarding the equipment.)
Three badly damaged bullet proof vests
Two pair of handcuffs
Lots of plastic zip-cuffs
Some sigarettes
A lighter
An expensive sigar
A letter from some Hank's wife telling him how much she misses him and can't wait till he gets back home next month
A postcard from someone congratulating a certain person
Some playing cards
Some dice
A cell phone
Two first aid kits
Four pair of Snowboots (for a snowboard)
Three snowboards (One less then the shoes available)
One pair of Skies (No ski shoes in the cars)
Two pencils
Two spare tires
6 High powered Titanium Maclight Flashlights, the police variant which can be used as clubs
Some spare batteries
A Laptop with a GPS program running on it, centered at the Hotel
A map of the valey
 

On his way back to get his things Ross watchs James look through the car. "WOW, that is a Glock 18! That thing is super illegal. Cought a guy once with one of those, but he jammed uzi bullets into it. Damn thing almost blew up in his hand. Don't even touch that thing. But hey grab the rest of the stuff we can use as ummmm... evidence. "

OOC: WOOHOO!!! Just got my PC delivered to me!!! WooHoo! Anyways I just wanted to ask for Psycic Focus due to that strange incident in the diner.

Now Back IC:


"Guys, what do we do now? Do we wait around for the state troopers, or just leave, and have our finger prints all over everything? Do we look for clues and follow these guys trail or what? I mean there is something bigger here than just .. well actually this is pretty big. But I mean seriously, do *ANY* of you guys think that this is weird even in the slightest. We battled things that most men think only exist in movies. We have some ... metal disc that changes shape. We have a lobby full of mangled bodies. There is enough crap in this sleepy town of mystery to keep the X-files team busy for a few seasons. I mean what happen here was, I'm sure, highly illegal... even if there are no laws to deal with werewolves. Common guys, we got 2 options... go skiing or follow the clues. I mean here, today, now, we have a chance to save some people's lives. We could have saved that young womans life in the bar, had we known the things that we know now. Someone else could be doomed if we just take the knowlede we know and sit on it. I need to know what you all think as well. I have stared into the face of insanity and madness and survived, you all can too I know it. Well?"

OOC: Also when it is appropriate I would like to make some comments about the overall story/plot/handeling of the first chaper, but not till it is 100% done, so let me know. On a side note I am going to use my new web setup to design a easier to modify section for the game. If you look at how www.shapermc.com is set up I am going to give Nocturnum:CH1 a similar make over. It will not look as creepy perhaps, but it will be simpler for me. Thanks.

Congratz :p And I'll post it or mail it when someone qualifies to discover his or her dormant powers. One thing you'll all have to wait for :p

And for a other note... the chapter is done when you leave. You destroyed the evil in the valley and the pass gets cleared someone today if not already so you can or soon be able to leave the valley and be on your way.

Chapter two will take place in 4 months from now during the summer. So from the moment you leave now there is an interlude of 4 months in which your normal life, (well.. normal after this?) goes on. Then when I start chapter two you'll find out what sets chapter two in motion. I got it worked out so I'm waiting for Ross to make up his mind to go and a post from Jemal and Argent. Then I close up and open chapter two!

[EDIT: Nice site! I'd be proud to have a spot on that site! And again, I'm very gratefull that you are taking the time and it's not how much that counts but just the fact that you are doing it without being asked. Thanks again! And I'm looking forward to your comments on the chapter. It's pratically over for about maybe a post of 5 depending on the rest. So you can go ahead and post them, I'm waiting with full curiosity! /EDIT]

James marvels at the pile of 'l33t l00t' that with a little difficulty he has stored in his Hum-Vee. He rubs his hands together greedily.

"What a haul!" he says excitedly, "Now this stuff is actually useful to us. Too bad about Hank though, guess his wife will miss him for a long time to come. Good thing is though, we're heavily armed and have come into possesion of some skiing equipment."

James starts trying to find a pair of boots that fit him. His movements are slow though becauseof his injuries.

"From now on, I take my .44 with me everywhere, I like that gun," he says upon finding the closest fitting pair,"Who wants some medical treatment?"

He then hands out the first aid kits for anyone with the know-how to use.
 



As soon as the copper turns away, Jason shoves the Glock 18 into his pack. :D
"I don't know about the rest of you, but I say we just get the f*ck out of here.. anyone comes by asking us why we left, well.. 'Hey, man would YOU stay around a place like that with all that sh*t happening? Buildings blowign up, some huge f*cking wolf attacking people, gunshots flying everywhere!?' Easy excuses, man." He moves over to look at all the dead bodies, seeing what THEY have while the others talk.
 

I included their stuff in the post with all the l00t.

I'm closing this thread with a closing post within the next four hours. After that I'll be opening Chapter two within 30 minutes of closing this one.
