Gaming W/Jemal: Mutant Rising OOC (Game has started!)

[Binder Fred]

He wanted to get some footage of the gunmen through the windows of the gym.

Jemal, does Rawling know they're in the gym or is it just Cassandra? It didn't seem obvious from the description I had, but then, they *always* seem to keep the hostages in the gym, don't they.

With all the news coverage, and police presence, I figured it'd be pretty hard to keep that secret.

But if it's decided that we don't know where the hostages are, I'll gladly edit my post.

 

[Binder Fred]

Well, you may be right. Coverage so far, as provided by Jemal, hasn't mentioned the gym though, and Notice rolls designed specifically to "locate where the gunmen have set up" have only turned up one gunmen at the entrance of the school building.

I'm guessing that entrance also leads to the gym in short order and if Cassandra or Victor went to this perticular highschool, they might easily put the two together. Nighshift didn't and certainly didn't follow the coverage on his way over, hence the question to Jemal.

 

[Andor]

Oh mighty GM, now that youthful testosterone has kicked things off in the Gym, do you want me to try to stack up a few rounds worth of actions per post, or stick to one round per post?

 

[Jemal]

Andor - stick to 1 per, so I can have NPC's react. I'll try to post reactions more often though, until everybody's involved. (Or the situation's resolved).

Binder/Shayuri - Yes, it's ok for characters to know/assume that they're hold up in the gym

 

[Binder Fred]

Updated my character sheet.

Changes this time :
- Added an Action Extra to Command Voice so that taking control and issuing the command takes a standard action all told. I'd miscalculated the various extras and flaws last time (namely Perception to Touch is a -2 flaw, not a -1) so the total cost comes out the same.

- I also added the Skill Mastery feat to Notice and Sense Motives for 1/2 a PP (Skill Mastery usually applies to 4 skills per PP but I don't think any other skill of his is appropriate for now). The other half-point came out of his Equipment.

By the by, I still think the Immunities fit him very well : I just don't have the points at the moment. I'll upgrade at the first experience.

Binder Fred, let me know if anything is amiss.

Moving this here.

(OOC need update from Jemal before I can do anything, since Cassandra has no knowledge of what Nightshift is doing, and won't until she gets the camera back and looks at the pictures. ...and I admit, I'm a little mystified by what he's doing OOC too. You said he was 'taking it off...' Does that mean he undressed? And the watch? Hee hee. Poor Cass and her player are confused. )

All I can say is that you'll (eventually) see Nightshift take off *his watch!* and lay it on a desk, looking hard at the camera as he does so, and then leave.

[Shayuri]

Cool deal. Thanks for the clarification.

 

[Mark Chance]

Mark Chance - Sorry to hear that. If you get time later feel free to check back, comics are always writing in new heroes.

So, about being written in later, what are the odds? I've only the vaguest of ideas for a character at the moment, so it's not like I'm in a hurry.

 

[Jemal]

When & How would depend entirely on who/what your character is and when it's done. I have a few ideas on how to write in new characters allready, but as I said, it would depend on the character.

Also the bribes help*cough cough*
