RS1-Stolen University (Salix Judging)

[Hand of Vecna]

Kangaroo... what? Archeville thinks to himself as he heads towards the Commons. He also murmurs several things in German under his breath.

OOC: Do we see anything in the building from where we are?

 

[Raylis]

From where you are, nothing seems to out of the ordinary...except for the general lack of activity on the campus.

 

[Hand of Vecna]

Archeville turns to Zenji, "Okay, ve need some vay in, preferably quietly. Getting zhe hostages out is top priority; if ve can get them out mitout zhe Minister knowing ve've gotten zhem out, all zhe better. Do you haff anything zhat can help mit zhat? Some sort of 'silence field' or somezhing?"

After teleporting Jones crouches at the edge of the roof and waits.

Notice to spot Jack and Juggler (1d20+8=20)

Robert Reid Laboratory School
PTA Meeting Monday January 29th.

Whats the date today?
[sblock=Another question to which the answer is no.]
Would you allow the Distract feat to be used as a move action with a -5 penalty? Similar to other interaction skills; Taunt, Feint, Trick, Demoralise etc
[/sblock][/sblock]

 

[Raylis]

OOC: The date is Tuesday, January 23, 2007. Let me look up the Distract feat and get back to you.

From his vantage point on top of Martin Hall, Mr. Jones can easilly see Jack but the Juggler is no where in sight.

Archeville turns to Zenji, "Okay, ve need some vay in, preferably quietly. Getting zhe hostages out is top priority; if ve can get them out mitout zhe Minister knowing ve've gotten zhem out, all zhe better. Do you haff anything zhat can help mit zhat? Some sort of 'silence field' or somezhing?"

"As far as magic goes, not so much... But it just so happens that I am a master of stealth and deceit.* What do you suggest?"

[sblock=*]Not really... Zenji has 4 ranks in stealth, but he doesn't know that!

[Hand of Vecna]

[sblock=Inner Monologue]'Master of stealth and deceit'? Is that why he barged into the bank, rather than sneak in?[/sblock]

"Errr... riiight....," Archeville replied, hen he bgan to fiddle with the device cliped to his Gravimetric Belt, pulling a thin cable out of it and connecting it to a pair of goggles he fished out of one of the many pockets of his labcoat. "We need to get a clear picture of vhat is inside, und zhis seems to be our best bet. You keep your eyes peeled here vhile I look around inside."

OOC: Using his visual ESP to look into the Commons, starting at the first floor east side window, then the second floor window, then doing a spiral search pattern.

 

[Raylis]

[sblock=Dr. Archeville]

Inside there seem to be groups of students, older men and women that would presumable be either staff or faculty. All are in the second floor in the dining area of the hall.

In front of each door (one automatic double doors on the front, and a regular door near the loading bay dock) and at the foot at each set of stairs (there are two on the east and west side of the buildings) are a pair of men in khakis and a black t-shirt, dark sunglasses and wearing a Bluetooth headset.

Each man is armed with a pistol and a baton.

[Hand of Vecna]

[sblock]Any armed men in the dining room with the hostages? Or at the door(s) to the dining room?[/sblock]

After a few moments, Archeville lifts his goggles off and looks to Zenji. "Good news und bad news. Good news is, I've found zhe hostages, or at least one group of zhem. Zhey're up on zhe second floor, in zhe dinig hall; seems mostly to be staff und faculty, not students. Bad news is, at zhe front doors, zhe loading dock doors, und at zhe foot of zhe east und west stairs, zhere are a pair of nasty-looking men mit pistols, batons, und radio headsets. Zhey don't seem like zhey'd be a threat to us, but it vould be easy for zhem to put a call in to zhe Minister und have reinforcements sent; I also don't vant to put zhe hostages in danger if it can be helped."

Archeville thought a moment,then put his goggles back on, "I vondr if zhere might be a vay in up on zhe roof...."

[sblock]ESPing the roof, and checking back in on the hostages and area immediately surrounding it. Seeing if there are any classrooms, offices, janitor's closets, et cetera.[/sblock]

 

[Raylis]

OOC: No one is in the room with the hostages

There are offices on the lower level as well as classrooms that can be opened up into larger rooms on the second floor. Surveying the roof there seems to be no roof access.
