Fabian J. Hart's page

Hey guys. Huge apologies for going radio silent. Big storms here in Michigan took out our power for a few days. Woke up and had it back this morning.

Will post something later today.

Fabian suddenly has Chichi thrust into his arms, and for a moment he just blinks in shock. Muttering to himself, the deputy knows he'll be of little real help this way and so he turns to Ernest and hands the priviledged canine over to him instead.

"Hold on to the dog." He pauses, then adds "Thanks. Civic duty and all that...", before hurring back over to the rail.

Absolutely sharin' info with Rosa and her crew.

Arriving on scene, Fabian hustles past the others and over to the rail (near the sheriff is) and looks down, surveying the situation. "Well, damn."

Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16

The deputy makes a face, squinting at the scene before shrugging and exhaling loudly. Fabian turns to Sheriff Goodpaster "I might be able to climb down there, but..."

That's when he sees what Rex is up to and calls over to the dark haired youth: "Hey, do you really know how to do all that stuff you just said with that rope? I might be able to toss it down and whatnot, but I ain't so good with knots. Least, I never really learned how to tie them..."

Just realized that there's a time differential between Rosa and Fabian's posts, so I sort of did a timey-whimey thing and still have them meeting at the door of the diner. Wasn't sure what else to do without further delaying the mass exodus to the crash scene.

Apologies if I overstepped.

"Hart, this has just become a rescue operation. We have a single vehicle accident, van gone over the edge. Be half an hour before Humbolt EMS can get here. If one of those traveling doctors is handy, bring 'em along."

The deputy's radio calls out and and Fabian grits his teeth, "Well, shit." then clicks the mic and calls back, "On it, Chief."

Heh. He hates it when I call him Chief.

U Turn: 1d20 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 2 + 3 = 10
d20 + Vehicles + Police Cruiser

Fabian's car screeches and he turns far too wide for his own comfort, ending up on the side of the road for a moment. Still, he's thankfull that he's the only one currently there to see it. Moments later, he wheels into the diner parking lot and is out of the car as soon as it comes to a halt.

Jogging inside, he almost collides with Rosa, and brings himself up short. "Doc? You guys! We got a situation just down the road past the ridge! Sheriff says we could really use your help." Fabian awaits their response, holding the diner door open, as if to show his urgency.

Lots of love for the PF1 Core Rules, here. The Lost Lands intrigue me. Definitely interested, as a straight up human fighter. Blacksmith, by trade, heroic at heart.

"Mmmm hmmm. My breakfast is just smelling awesome back there, Jack." Grinning, Fabian calls back to the short-order cook, who may or may not actually be named Jack, and so the young deputy tries to make 'Jack' sound as much like saying, 'Buddy' or 'Brother' as he can.

Might be Clem. Hmmm. Might not. The only thing that Mrs. Hart's baby boy does know for sure, is that his stomach is grumbling, and so Fabian perches on one of the counter stools, leaning an elbow on the countertop.

Glancing around the diner, Deputy Hart takes in the clientele, a few regulars, a couple obvious travelers, and of course, the usual waitress with far too many plates and cups on a tray as she heads back into the kitchen.

Fabian considers offering her a hand when out of the corner of his eye he spots Rosa a few seats away, and he grins. They'd come across each other a few times since he'd been promoted to Deputy last year, and seemed to be 'one of the good ones'. Not like that EMT I ran into who said he was from Vegas. Thought he was all high and mighty...lazy as hell, though.

"Good morning, ma'am. Nice day if it don't rain, eh?" Fabian offers, smiling in his real smile rather than his traffic-stop-greeting-smile. "And how are you..." The cropped haired officer trails off as his radio squawks on his shoulder, and the sheriff calls in his location.

A look of mixed frustration and self-pity crosses Fabian's face as his eyes dart back behind the counter where the grill cook has yet to complete his order. "Well, damn. Jack? I gotta run, I'll be back for that as soon as I'm able..."

To Rosa, Fabian shrugs and says, "Pardon, Doc, I gotta run. Nice seein' ya again.", and he's hustling off to the door.

"Roger, Sheriff. I'm up at the diner. I'm heading for my car now." Hart calls into his radio's mic as he literally jogs out to his car. The officer ducks inside, starts the engine, and is peeling out on the gravel and concrete within moments.

He's twenty yards down the road before he remembers to flick on the flashing lights.

Then get a sports car to drive up into the container.

Knight Rider meets the A-Team meets...dirtbikes. :D

My post will come a little later this afternoon. At a doctor's appointment, at the moment.

1. Introduce yourself. Games you love, movies you love, Experience gaming. Whatever you want us to know.
I'm a straight (He, Him), white man and father of four. Early 50's, and happily married. I have played in all sorts of pbp formats, and even run a game for a few years for my college friends (we still talk). My favorite roleplaying games/systems are 3.5 D&D, Marvel Superheros, and Star Wars d6. I'm a Star Wars fan, Live in the Shire, and I'm a Trekkie as well. I consider myself a full-fledged, all around geek.

2. Something you want to see in this game (or like in games in general).
Good interplay between characters (Banter is the best), interesting action and things to puzzle out, as well as a sense of group cohesion. Its fine to have stress and drama between characters, but at the end of the day, everyone's pulling for each other. Also, a least a little bit of quirkiness in the vein of Supernatural or X-Files.

3. A moment you love from an action movie or show.
Several different moments from Firefly/Serenity ("I aim to misbehave!"). OR The Rock's "Boomshakkalaka!" moment from the Rundown.

4. Anything you don't want to see in this game.
Pretty much like everyone else, not really looking for flirting or romance.

On my way! Sorry...went to a concert with my daughter last night. Busy stuff. :D

Fabian, if we get to a point where your Police powers are negated by you being a fugitive, I'm thinking you get advantage for dealing with police procedures or something like that (knowing how to evade a roadblock, stuff like that).

IF? That's funny.

Thinking of shifting to a tough-based character rather than Wise, since I think we have a lack of physical prowess for the assembling characters. Still a police officer, or rather, a sheriff's deputy.

Hmmm. The link to the backgrounds and profession is blocked by GoogleDocs. No access. :(

Tenatively, I'm thinking of a Smart (or possibly Wise) 25-ish year old man, either a paramedic or someone going through the police academy. In any event, he'll currently be on trauma related leave, as he was involved or witnessed a shooting while in the course of his job.

Hear me out on the next part: While on leave, he was advised by his therapist to get away, so he went camping. While hiking near his campsite, he encounters...a Bigfoot. JUST a sighting, but enough to freak him out.

And then whatever happens to jumpstart the campaign happens...how's that work for a background?

Wise-Sleuth is a pretty cool class for a cop. That's how I built my version of Roger Murtagh.

Ok, police officer, Wise-Sleuth, an aspiring police detective it is! (And this is the avatar for him rather than MyImaginaryCrayon :D)
