Tale Weaver's Vampire: The Masquerade Game Board

If you try to break open the front door, roll a Strength Check but keep in mind that he is right there.

Maybe I should play it safe then
Ruby rushes to the door not knowing what to do. She started knocking on the door really fast to see if maybe they are having just a normal conversation. She will knock a bit harder and more annoying if he doesn't answer for a while.
If he still doesn't answer then she will knock it down I have a +3 in strength, IC isn't working and having hard time finding another roller with a link working

If you need to roll and IC is down then use dmtools.

Klondike hears Ruby knocking on the door. He grabs Clover and holds the gun to her head. He yells out to Ruby "I have one of your consorts here and I won't hesitate to blow her brains out! If you came here for Liverman's notes then I'll give them to you, I already got what I wanted. Tell Thaddeus that he will gain nothing from this!"

Ruby lets out an inhuman growl. "Listen bub, don't you harm a hair on her head! She means more to me than those damn notes, but damn it! We need those to solve this mystery once and for all. We want nothing to do with that evil guy. I'd much rather not break this fine oak door, but I want her here in one piece," she managed to say through gritted teeth.

Klondike says rudely "What do I care about your problems! Wait right there, I'll give you what you want as soon as I get what I want."

Klondike leads Clover through the sitting area and into an office. A messy desk sits before them, random paperwork strewn everywhere. Not much else in the room besides the desk and chair. A few pictures hang on the wall of old English countryside and some of some rather scary looking old men from various time periods.

Klondike points to the desk. "The notes are right here. Now let's make this easy, give me some blood and they're all yours."

Amazed at how quickly things were snowballing out of control, Clover panicked momentarily as Klondike roughly grabbed her, thrusting cold steel to her temple, "I have one of your consorts here and I won't hesitate to blow her brains out! If you came here for Liverman's notes then I'll give them to you, I already got what I wanted. Tell Thaddeus that he will gain nothing from this!"
She heard Ruby on the other side of the door, her voice clear and calming, despite the situation, "Listen bub, don't you harm a hair on her head! She means more to me than those damn notes, but damn it! We need those to solve this mystery once and for all. We want nothing to do with that evil guy. I'd much rather not break this fine oak door, but I want her here in one piece."
Then, Klondike spoke and chilled her to the core, "What do I care about your problems! Wait right there, I'll give you what you want as soon as I get what I want." Then, he half pulled, half dragged her through the house.
Clover struggled feebly against his grip, her nice leather school shoes slipping uselessly along the carpet. She also didn't dare reach for the gun.
She wasn't sure if vampires could survive a shot from a bullet.
She wasn't sure she wanted to have to find out.
But still...
Klondike pushed her into an office, saying rather gruffly--rudely--, "The notes are right here. Now let's make this easy, give me some blood and they're all yours."
Yes, they certainly were. She suddenly found herself damning Liverman for all this trouble. And then Prestor. Well, damn Klondike too. They could all go to bloody hell!
Anger and pride suddenly bubbled to the surface of her tongue, and she found herself speaking braver than she felt. She spat at him, her face scrunched in angry, bitter concentration, "Feh! I don't negotiate with terrorists. Now, how about we play by my rules? Give the research to my friend at the door, and I'll give you a sip?"

Klondike says angrily "I didn't survive for centuries under the rule of paranoid vampires by believing everything they said! Do you take me for some kind of idiot!? Now give me the blood now or leave with nothing! This is your last chance!"

Meanwhile, Ruby and Koln are waiting outside the door to the house and getting rather impatient. They both seriously consider just breaking the door down when a light blue 4x4 pulls into the driveway. Koln and Ruby hear the door open and close. Before they can even see who it is they hear a woman's voice say "You know, I don't remember inviting any visitors over." The woman comes into view, she has black hair up in pigtails and grey eyes. She's dressed in a schoolgirl outfit but needless to say it's a little less conservative than Clover's revealing much of her pale skin and rather large breasts. She crosses her arms and says "And to whome do I owe the pleasure of your presence? Don't tell me you were about to break down my pretty door."

This woman looks vaguely familiar to you. "Now where have I seen her before?" you think to yourself.

"I didn't survive for centuries under the rule of paranoid vampires by believing everything they said! Do you take me for some kind of idiot!? Now give me the blood now or leave with nothing! This is your last chance!"

Clover stared down the barrel of the gun with the utmost contempt. Honestly, she was afraid. It wasn't just the thought of a bullet ripping through her flesh, either. It was something basic and fearful about giving a part of herself to someone that she had originally only meant for another. Had only admitted another to take.
Mindy was her ghoul. Mindy could have her blood. This man--this cur--could not.
She found her mouth open: her lips pulled back in a spitting growl. Her fangs bared menacingly. Not the good-natured, toothy grin that she had adapted as of late. But a look of true loathing.
Dark storm clouds began to rage in her mind as anger swelled. She smelled the stench of this man's rotting blood beneath his skin. A human sustained longer than was natural. Than was advised. And, she thought to herself, who was he?
She let herself fall back into her mind as another part of her stepped forward. Proud and commanding, this Clover showed no fear. Only seething hatred for this man in front of her and what he had demanded. She felt her mouth open and heard words escape.
Strong words.
Words that had more courage in them than she could conjure up from any portion of her body at the moment.
She let the words flow, stepped into Klondike and his gun, and heard herself bark, "Stand down, you foolish mortal! Its a wonder you survived these centuries on your whining! Sniveling. Begging for sustenance! Just like a dog. So, dog, let me tell you how this game is played. Me: vampire. You? Pathetic, mortal, worm. Now, you ing cur, lets start playing and teach you some manners!"
Angry, snarling, livid, Clover slapped Klondike upside the face.

Intimidation!

Through gritted teeth Koln replies, "Through the very gates of the maddest depths of Hell I would not hesitate to breach, if it meant protecting my friend Clover! How dare he threaten her?! I am insane yes, but not nearly mad enough to let any harm come to her. For merely threatening her, I will not rest until this fiend inside slumbers for eternity in the putrid thorny depths of Beelzebub's underbelly, smoldering in the very rot of his sins. I will blow a hole through his skull so wide that reality itself shall crash down sixfold upon it, sinking his entire pathetic 'being' into the shadowy abyss of nonexistence... merely a non-memory. This I promise... and while I am a man of The Word, I am also a man of MY word." Koln holds his shotgun to the doorknob, about to blow it open, turning to face her right before he pulls the trigger, "And who in the name of our Lord are yo-... oh... it's you? Is it? Have we met? ...Lacey?" Koln tilts his head to the side in confusion as he lowers his gun, noticing her aura.

*Twitch Twitch* ^_^* Ruby feels pangs of animal like jealousy surge to her head when Koln said he recognized her until her brain starts screaming to her. 'This isn't the time now!' Ruby growls in exasperation, "There is a crazy guy trying to shoot our friend in there, wew need to stop him!" Her eyes flash green according to her now strained temper.

The woman laughs "Well aren't you just the walking bible! You must be Koln, I knew we would meet one of these nights. And you must be Ruby. It seems that Koln and I have a connection of sorts. You know, you're on his mind a lot girl. Maybe he's in loooooove!" she says teasingly. She courtsies "I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, how rude. Yes, I am Lacey."

Standing straight again she says "Now what's going on here? What's all this talk about blowing people's heads open? That's not very nice, Klondike was nice enough to let me stay here after all. The least I can do is make sure his head stays on his shoulders. Has he been vampire worshipping again? You know he does that sometimes."
