It's always the quiet ones....
I have it on good authority that angel blood, Dwarven rum, and a bit of lime make an excellent cocktail.
I know I've tried it. Or was it Dwarven blood, Angel Rum...
p.s. Angel's blood doesn't have to come from a dead angel, a good one may be persuaded to donate to a good cause (or a neutral/evil person may capture one to bleed. You would actually get more blood that way).
It's not a real Blue Angel unless it's served in a cassisian.
Which means somewhere there's a magic shop owner with angels chained up in the basement
The nerdy kids have found each other. Lol
I vote we go rescue the angel, then get them to clear out these bad guys that have kidnapped the princess.
Oh, this does not help my paranoia at all.
It's only paranoia if they're not out to get you ;D
I wouldn't say it's out to get us, specifically.
I just realized that I didn't put any of my gunpowder in the waterproof sack, and the gun is a really fancy beatstick without it. Can that be retconned, that my gunpowder is in the waterproof sack?
Yes, of course. :-)
Thanks!
You aren't using a Powder Horn? Pretty sure they're waterproof by default.
I have a crippling doubt right now. Was the mission supposed to last for a few days or be over in the span of a night (before things went south, what with the cave-in and all)?
Because I dropped the tent thinking the latter, but I wouldn't have if it was the former.
I told you it was gonna go to $#!+
For what it's worth, I think we were all expecting it to!
I assumed you were getting a tent as a back-up in case we were stuck there a few nights.
iirc our window of opportunity is three nights/days or something, so I assumed we would most probably need tents, however I didn't bother as you said you were getting a large one for all of us.
I can probably retcon my purchases to cover it if you can't.
I do have it, however I understood that the three days included the two days of ship travel, while time on the island was supposed to be limited to a night. Therefore, I left it on the ship because it's quite heavy (although now that I think about it, Az could have carried it without trouble, teaches me to post late at night).
But now I'm not so sure, if the mission was supposed to last more I would have carried it.
The three day window included travel time. If everything went according to plan, you'd be on the island for 12-24hrs.
We'll rough it.
Got a feeling we won't catch much shut-eye anyway.
Whups, thought they had surfaced before the rock collapse and it's a little late to edit.
np Ellena, I just glossed over that bit.

Kinda loving that Misselle is essentially her
Fun fact: The actress who played Vasquez is actually a pacifist; the Army (may have been the Marines) asked her to help make some recruitment posters and she turned them down hard.
Good for her.

GM, what do I need to do to craft myself a smart gun?
Smart gun?
Hey, if we're going for a Victorian Shadowrun aesthetic I want a mechanical brass arm.
Our enemies can probably arrange that for you.

*makes a note to sever Alice's arm at the first available opportunity*
Left one, please. I need my sword arm.

The M56 Smartgun is the heavy weapon in the Aliens movie. It's mounted on a swivel harness and has auto-targeting abilities.
And yeah, given that Miselle is an immigrant who joined the national service and enjoys using big guns, it kinda fits with Vasquez. Although this is the alternative reality version where she eventually gets to pilot the giant robot suit...
Smartgun
Auto-targeting can be done through generic +accuracy enchantments, and there's also the seeking property. There's feats to decrease reload time. Mobility's the tricky one, but we can probably work something out.
Robot Limbs
If you're serious about it, I can incorporate stuff from S&S, Technology Guide, and various other sources. It wouldn't be for a while, though.
Really? Oh, you're the best! I'm a great fan of bionics (I'm actually studying human-machine integration) and I love characters who carry visible signs of their past struggles.
Sure, in a while. ^_^
@Miselle: You could also switch your Greatwork to making your gun a Mobius Weapon.

I'm always willing to work with my PCs - especially when they have a cool idea. :-) The Technology Guide is too advanced for this campaign, but S&S is slightly too primitive. I'll go through my stuff and see if I can find a prosthesis that splits the difference.
No need for all that - Clockwork Prostheses are already a thing.
Other than the items that Ellena found, there is 3PP material by 4 Winds Gaming with a variety of cheap (perhaps too cheap) replacements.
Also, an Oracle of Clockwork can replace their arms, legs, eyes and skin. A single level dip, or using Genius Games Feats of Multiclassing, could net some interesting results.
I'm just looking forward to the special prestige class that will effectively allow Az to start inventing ray guns!
I caught a bit of a cold over the weekend. Nothing too bad, but it's left me feebleminded. I should be back to normal in the next day or two.
No worries, boss-person. Life hit me in the face the last week or so, so a short break is fine by me.
Don't worry, I'm drowning in exams so it's no problem for me either.
Feel better.
No worries, we'll be here when you get back on your feet.
I'm morbidly curious - what's the acrobatics DC for running across those ropes?
@Ellena: DC 19 to walk, so it should be a DC 24 to run.
Popping my head in to say Ellena's staying quiet and out of sight.
Who votes for blindly taking the weird magic coin?
No - there's a time for blindly taking chances, and a time to play it straight. I vote we play it straight for now. Until we have a good idea of what it does (or we're desperate), I say leave the coin where it is.
