Josiah your stabilized but still critically wounded and will need treatment for sure!

Looking around you able to find most common and lower type equipment. If your looking for something specific I'll let you know if it's there.

The object Josia and Lazlo brought in sits still on the table even during the combat it never budged...

Lazlo and Sirus make Willpower checks please.


Sirus you easily find a medkit that will give +20 bonus to skill check.

Thus far no one seems to be approaching the shop.


Shakes your normal diff for combustion is Willpower+10 so would be 52, still failure on first one just for future reference. If you ever wanted to push it harder you can make the diff hard for more PR boost we can talk about that later though cuz it's more dangerous :)

As the shop keeper prepares to make his move again suddenly Lazlo feels the air around him get warmer and then he explodes into a giant ball of flame! The shop keeper falls to the ground letting out a loud scream and then stops moving within a few moments as the flames vanish on their own...

Sirus:

This is now second time you have seen something this bizzar...


dodge: 1d100 ⇒ 37
The old man is able to side step the downward thrust from Lazlo's chainsword!

Sirus and Shakes up! They in Melee so if you shoot into it you got some penalties.


Cover will just protect your legs and give bonus +10 AP there if that's where the shots hit. Shots on you would be Leg/Leg/Body so you get some extra protection on first two bullets.

Your critical hit hit the head...
The hit causes the target’s sight to blur and his head to spin. The target suffers a –10 penalty to Perception and Intelligence tests
for 1d5 rounds.
1d5 ⇒ 2

Your at -6 right now.
The attack knocks the target sprawling on the ground. The target suffers 1d5 levels of Fatigue, is flung 1d5 metres away from the
attacker (stopping if he hits a solid object), and falls Prone. He is Stunned for 2 rounds.

1d5 ⇒ 2 Fatigue
1d5 ⇒ 4 Knockback

The shots ring out from the shopkeepers shotgun and the blood spray from Josiah is both marvelous and frightening and he gets knocked backwards and down to the ground from the impact!

################

Lazlo misses the grab as both Shakes and Sirus look for cover.

Josiah your out for this round being stunned.

The shopkeeper turns his attention to Lazlo and attempts to move back from him so he can get off a shot.
acrobatics: 1d100 ⇒ 47 vs 40
He's not able to maneuver properly so swings the butt at Lazlo!
attack: 1d100 ⇒ 62 vs 55
Big miss!

You guys up again!


dodge: 1d100 ⇒ 33 vs 65

The shopkeeper moves quicker than any of you would think possible at his age dodging the first 3 of the burst of bullets fired by Josiah! The 4th and 6th bullets draw blood, he obviously appears to be wearing some form of armor under his cloths.

He pulls out a combat shotgun from under the counter and fires at Josiah who is right in front of him!

attack: 1d100 ⇒ 9 vs 80 (Semi-Auto -10, point blank +40)
damage: 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13
damage: 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
damage: 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15


shakes:

Yes what you felt is definitely coming from the object he just placed on the table.

The shop keepers eyes widen when Josiah unwrapped the object on the table.

"Where the hell did you get this!" he yells!

"And why the hell would you bring it here!" he yells again!

He slams his fist on the table.

"You planning on taking me out! I THINK NOT!"
He reaches under the desk for something.

Roll init please!

shopkeeper: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11


sorry for delay guys work been nuts.


The shop owner eyes Josiah as he speaks and then back to Sirus looking at the blood on his robes.

"Deal then."

He flips a few dials on his dataslate and the credits are transferred.

He turns back to Josiah "What do you two goons want?"


Sirus looks like he's in pretty bad shape right now. Heavily Wounded.


The owner finishes his counting and looks at Sirus noticing the blood on his clothing.

"You look like you need some help." and then grunts pulling out his data slate.

"50 credits for it all. Deal?"

The blood is clearly visible on the tech-adepts robes from all angles. He looks like he had a pretty rough time wherever he came from.


Shakes:

As soon as the two strangers walk into the building you can smell the stink of the warp on them.

Suddenly you experiences a brief vision, like a waking dream, of a vast and barren alien landscape, studded with massive and bizarre structures.

And then you snap out of it...

######################################

The owner shakes his head to Sirus. "Negative"

"I'll be with you two in a moment!" the owner yells to the 2 newcomers as he begins to count the ore provided by Sirus.


OK. don't think you get first disorder till 40 but your at +10 to trauma checks now :)


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

Before the store owner can respond the door behind you opens and in walks two men. One looks like a brute, definitely underhiver, the other looks like he may have crawled out of the sewers from the spire.

The owner looks to the new comers and then to the ore and grins.

Shakes please make a Psyninscience +30 check!
If you get 2 or more DoS please make Fear Check (Willpower) as well.


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

There doesn't appear to be anything physically wrong with Josiah...

The both of you make your way to the location as quickly as possibly tucking the object away securely wrapped in whatever extra cloth you have on you without touching it.

You finally make it to the location. Compared to the rest of the locations in the area it's in rather good shape. Must be doing good for a place in the underhive. Upon entering you see what could only be a tech-adept based on the robes and mechendrite on his back and and another underhiver talking to the shop owner.

There are a lot of random items scattered throughout the store. No weapons though.


Sounds good!


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

The two of you finally make it to the shop in which Sirus first made contact with the dealer. There is no one here when you enter but the shop owner. He looks up from his work and eyes you both cautiously.

"Who's that with you there? pointing to shakes.


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

Josiah Insanity: 1d5 ⇒ 3 You also gain this many Insanity Points

After a few moments Josiah snaps out of whatever made him drop to the ground. He looks a bit unhinged as if he saw a ghost or something worse...


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

Finding a cheap apothecary down here is probably not THAT hard. You come to a place that appears to be filled with more disease than a medical facility should have but it's the best you can find with what you have. The apothecary looks over Sirus wounds and mutters to himself something unintelligible.

He pulls out some liquids, scalpel and bandages and does what he can with the wounds.

medicae: 1d100 ⇒ 31
heal: 1d5 ⇒ 3 You get 3 life back

You hand the man 5 credits and he urges you both to leave without saying much and your back on your way to get the credits your due for your work...


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

The way down is pretty uneventful but long. About 2 hours later Josiah stops dead in his tracks standing still.

Josiah make a Fear check +0 please

Josiah:
Suddenly you experiences a brief vision, like a waking dream, of a vast and barren alien landscape, studded with massive and bizarre structures.


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

You both finally make your ways out of the mining area without any additional trouble. The creature was surely disturbing and probably the reason no one else was down there.

Any pit stops, perhaps medical treatment before you head up to the drop off location to get your creds?


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

Josiah you can think of one location that you may be able to sell an object like this. A bit of a black market dealer you have heard of and know where his shop is in the Underhive. Will take you both a bit to get down there but what else could be more pleasurable than taking a stroll through the gutters of the hive!


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

The creature does not return and you both gather what you can and head back up. Sirius is heavily damaged from the creatures foul claws and you feel the pain in you flesh bother you as the adrenaline of the fight wears off.


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

Josiah pulls out the items wrapped in a dirty cloth and unravels it. It is a perfectly smooth black orb, heavy and cold to the touch, about the size of a clenched fist.


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

You make your leave before any officials arrive the crowd parting for you as you make your way out of the area. You can hear the sounds of banging behind you as the othbearers are probably banging their weapons on shields to disperse the crowd to take control.

You find a nice quite spot to digest what just happened...


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

Sirus onslaught of overcharged shots appear to damage the creature and then it combusts into flames screeching something horrible as it turns tail and runs back through the tunnels from which it came...

Do you pursue or let it go?


You got 3 toughness so you should still be above 0.


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

You both put on a grand performance but the hivers seem to be to distracted by the face this person ripped out his own eyes right here on the streets. You hear noise from away as it appears official may be coming this way, most likely some sanctionites...


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

Both shots go wide and the creature strikes out at Sirus again!

attack: 1d100 ⇒ 28
damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

The claws dig into Sirus flesh rending flesh causing a lot of damage!

You guys are up!
Shakes don't forget your psychic powers if you wish to attempt them :)


yes please just for my sanity. :)


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

You both play the part well with all the confusion going on before any enforcers or oathbearers can make it here being your in the lower ends of the hive that may take some time, if ever.

Josiah you feel a solid object in the man's pocket and pull it out. It's wrapped in a cloth. He doesn't appear to have anything else on him.

The man begins to go into shock while you "pretend" to be helping him.

What do you guys do?


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

Sirius gun strikes the monstrosity but doesn't appear to affect it as the blasts seem to bounce off it's unnaturally tough skin...

shakes toughness: 1d100 ⇒ 17

Shakes somehow is able to control his bowels and regains composure.
You may act next round.

The creatures lunges at Sirius.
attack: 1d100 ⇒ 62 The little creatures claws just miss Sirius by a hairs length!

You both may act!


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

You both push your way through the crowd. The crowd appears to be very disturbed, what the hell could unnerve these people down here and when you finally see it you understand.

Before you kneeling with his arms raised up is a man in fine, but dirty robes, obviously an upper hiver but something is missing... His EYES! The blood drips down his face from the sockets and you see his eyes on the ground before him. You can hear him murmuring "I still hear them! Make them stop!"


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

I'm giving all of you a natural +10 for fear checks being who you are and from the underhive.

Sirus wreches when he sees the creature but able to compose himself and ready for combat.

Poor poor Shakes with the 100!

Shakes body revolts at the sight of the abomination! His tremors become unstoppable and he begins to empty the contents of his stomach spewing bile uncontrollably!

You can attempts a Toughness check -10 on your turn each round else it lasts for 4 rounds.

The green monster moves forward rather slowly and won't make it up to the two of you this round so you both may act.


Sorry for slow posts things just been nuts. Giving everyone 200xp.


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

A few moments later the sound stops just outside of your eye sight around a bend in the tunnel. Then suddenly a gurgling sounds can be heard in your mind.

"We shall feast on your entrails...

At that moment a bloated small green creature with pusses and sores all over it's body and long sharp nails come charging at you.

Please make Willpower checks and Initiative!

Init: 1d10 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

Some semblance of an agreement is made between the 2 unlikely allies and you head back into the hive to find whatever leads you to creds. After about an hour of putzing around you hear a very loud woman's scream come from a large group of hivers who appear to be circling around something. The hivers are murmuring but no one appears to be taking any kind of action from what you can see.


sorry guys with meltdown/spectr shit going on been super busy at work. Also my pc died rebuilding it now. Should have updates tomorrow.


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

Moving along you find a sweet spot you can use the tools down here to help collect some of the metal you were looking for. After about an hour of gathering you hear a strange squishing type sound, like something playing around in thick mud, making it's way to your area through the tunnels.


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

Josiah leads the way down hive with ease taking strange paths that Lazlo probably knew existed and before you know it, much faster than you anticipated your back down in the lower hives.

No one bothers to try to chase you down and you feel rather safe, well as safe as you can down under.

Anything particular you wish to do?


Sirius, you guys are no longer with Stubs. He stood up at his shop when you move down further to the mines. It's just you and Shakes right now.


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

shakes Psyncscience: 1d100 ⇒ 78

Sirius you spot something out of the corner of your eye. A small green looking creature that scurries off when you notice it. Shakes appears oblivious to it's presence.


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

Before you start to run you see the Mark pull out a bolt pistol and the Babyfaces do similar with their more advanced weaponry than you have seen in a while and start the gun fight with the Arbites. You know this isn't going to end well.

A few zigs and zags you make your way through the hive streets and the residents begin to freak out from the gun fire. After a few minutes of running the gun fire begins fade in the distance and the crowds seem calmer. The two of you are alone now in a quite alley and the sound of fighting could not be heard any longer.


These are full on Arbites. There are you 2, the mark and 3 baby faces in your group with 3 arbites and one mastif coming your way.


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

Accepting the offer the two of you leave Stubs shop. He just grunts as you leave not saying a word.

You both get strange looks as you head deeper and deeper into the hive to where only those desperate go to find work. You come to a lift that will take you down to the mining areas and start your decent.

The air is thinner and filled with more fumes the further down you go making it a bit harder to breath but still can survive, for some time at least.

*Clunk* the lift reaches it's destination and you disembark. You do not see a single soul down here. There are numerous shafts going in different directions from where you are with some lifts available for transporting heavier things down here laying about in all sorts of different disrepair states.

Both of you make awareness checks. Shakes if you have Psyncscience you can make that.


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

Skinner takes the items and puts it in one of his pockets and then hands the Mark an envelope with something obviously inside of it. At that moment all hell breaks loose as over a loud megaphone you hear a voice.

"Drop all your weapons and get down on the ground NOW!"

3 Arbitrators can be seen one block away with one cyber mastif!

Init and let me know what you plan on doing.


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

The mark looks to Josiah "Possibly but my man Lazlo behind me is filling the spot I need right now. Stick around and lets see what we can do since you know these Babyfaces alread."

Lazlo make awareness check please as your just taking in the area while the others chat on the way to wherever destination is.

The group finally makes it to a quite dark alley in between a few hab buildings where not much traffic is flowing through.

Skinner turns to the mark "So where is it?"

The mark frowns "So straight forward. Do you have the credits?"

Skinner grins and pulls out a small bag and empties some of it's contents into his hand. Most worlds use thrones, down here in the hives these credits are like gold for trade and purchasing of goods. The coins he pulls out are of top grade quality the likes the two of you probably have never seen or been a long time.

The mark grins "Good." and then pulls out a small item from his pocket wrapped in cloth and hands it to Skinner. "Hope your contact enjoys it" he grins.

Leaving this open a moment to see if you want to say/do anything.


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

shakes:
You have heard rummors of people vanishing as a more rapid rate down here. not that life is easy but it's a big more odd than normal. Not much on mining though as your not involved in that aspect.

Stubs ignores the two as he polishes some gear grumbling to himself.


Josiah Graves & Lil Lazlo

The employer/mark looks a bit taken aback when Josiah interjects on their conversation as him and Skinner go back in forth in conversation. He looks back to Lazlo motioning for him to come to the group with the look of "just in case".

Skinner grins a big toothy grin at Josiah. His two men who your not familiar with stand behind him always appearing to be ready for any kind of action that may occur.

Skinner turns to the mark before replying to Josiah. "Have the goods?"

The mark looks around a bit after Lazlo turns up at his side. "Perhaps a more quite place is in order now that half this Cantina heard you yell."

Skinner looks around and shrugs "Whatever, lets go." Skinner looks to Josiah "Come with if you want maybe we could use you down here for something."

The Mark looks at Lazlo "Stay close by my side in case things go sideways." he says as the Babyfaces and Josiah lead the way out.


Sirus Mechanicus & Shakes

The tech-adept appears to not be in pleasant mood as he goes through the crap and Shakes stumbles about unable to control his tremors is easily spotted by both Sirus and Stubs.

"What do you want you miscreant!" Stubs yells at Shakes.

Sirus:
Shakes appears to be affected by some kind of tremors or some sort as he always seems to not be in control of his body movements and shakes a lot.

You both can describe each other.
