@karan
Okay you were able to find both the leaves were difficult to find and expensive you have 10 GC left after your trip, your phone is the same as AC13's

@AC13
Yes think of it like a form of stasis

@9to5
Synthetic leather vest gives +2 to AC, scope gives +1 to hit with the rifle. You have 40GC left
The only thing you hear about moles is they have been been wrecking havoc on the radish harvest this year.

Note to all about roleplaying
When role playing feel free to refer to your character in 1st person. ;)
 
Zach says: Alright, time to go shopping!
Zach purchases:

Pistol
Steal toed boots
brass knuckles
Rifle
black trench coat
Helmet
red goggles
beer
pizza
hamburger
Cola
and a yo-yo
 
@MP
Sounds good, what type helmet are you buying? motorcycle, bicycle, midevil knight? You found some steal toed boots but they seemed kinda drafty and were branded as heavy duty sandals ;) the steel toed boots seemed better but you can get either ;)

Trench coat give +1 AC, the helmet may give +1 AC as well once I know what type it is. You have a case of beer, 12 pack of cola, and a hamburger pizza. The yo-yo is glow in the dark :D
 
Might as well take up the offer.
Shopping list
- nightvision goggles
- backpack
- oil (since I am an android...)
- carbon fiber chest plate and leggings
- emp
- light weight railgun
- a rechargeable electrical supply
- Railgun projectiles
-Solar charger
androids don't need food right?
 
@MP
okay you are good you have 30GC left after your shopping trip, the helmet provides a +1 AC and I assume you went with the steel toed boots? if so they do +1 to damage for the boots. I am not sure what the damage is yet but that is the additional they do compared to normal boots ;)

@marc
Android's don't need oil or recharging, they eat and sleep like humans (it is easier this way). Finding the rail gun, emp, and carbon fiber armor is a little difficult.

You can find a personal EMP that affects 1 android but you can't buy it since it is an illegal weapon, the street cost of it is more expensive than 150 GC (1000 GC each)

You found a pistol rail gun which is basically handheld and uses special bullets but does basically the same damage as a normal pistol.

The best type of armor you can find is synthetic armor. Gamin is not exactly a big town and for expensive things like carbon fiber armor it would have to be special ordered and cost more than you have. A synthetic leather vest would give +2 AC

Everything else look okay
 
@Yeahha
Ok that armor would do, and then can I get some ramen and water and everything else on my list besides the stuff you said are too expensive...
 
@marc
yeah that is fine you have 30 boxes of ramen and 3 gallons of water, nightvision goggles, backpack, oil, pistol railgun (PRG), 300 rounds for the PRG, recharageable electric supply and a solar charger.
Not sure why you need the bolded items so if you don't want them anymore you have more money. Currently you have 20 CG left, if you get rid of the bold items you have 60 CG left

please confirm if you are taking the bold items or not and we can move on :D

@MP
You don't have to give me those types of updates, after I post a story post there will be at least 12 hours to respond ;)
 
@marc
good thinking ;)

@all
okay my next post here will be story progression so if you have any additional shopping to do better do it before I post again (may be a little bit but likely within the next hour and a half)
 
At noon you arrive in The Spinning Beer and sit down in the same booth with Danforth and 4 other people you do not know. Danforth then says “So this is the group I have put together...hmm...I was hoping a few of the others would have joined in on this job but I guess not everyone is up for dangerou...erm...adventures ha..ha.” Danforth surveys everyone’s face with a nervous expression. “Well first I would like to go to a more secure place to discuss things. I have rented a room above this establishment that we can discuss things in a more private setting so to speak, there are some things I have to tell you that I would rather be kept between us.”

At this Danforth proceeds to go up a spiral staircase. You follow Danforth up the staircase to the third floor where it appears Danforth has rented the penthouse that you were unaware The Spinning Beer had. Danforth gestures everyone to sit down at a table that is quite a bit larger than the booth, once everyone is seated he tells you “Well since I doubt you know each other I will do the introductions T'resezk, Smith, H.T.C., Zach, and Cain I suggest you get to know one another since one of these men may be the person who saves your life one day soon.”

Danforth then examines the room again “I would also like to tell you a little about myself. Since I have called you all together and know you will need to be able to trust me for this job to be a success. I hail from Otros and was one of the patriots that fought against Apple Corp when they were trying to take over. I was only a young boy when it happened but I was already enrolled in the army and they sent me to be recruited by Apple Corp to work as a double agent. Shortly after I was one of the youngest members of the iArmy I worked for them for more than 30 years while remaining faithful to my home country even after it fell I worked with underground rebels to plot a new revolution. I moved up the ranks eventually becoming one of the iArmy's top advisors until 20 years ago my double agent status was discovered by some of the top brass I was arrested and scheduled to be executed. Lucky for me the word of my execution was leaked out to some of the rebels and they helped me escape from Apple Corp.”

At this time Danforth’s expression becomes very sad and he seems to be fighting back tears he continues. “After my escape I tried to stay in Otros and help the rebels but after they captured and killed my daughter and son-in-law I took my granddaughter, Estelle Anaveros, and left the country. This is why I need your help. I found out a few days ago that my granddaughter has been captured by Apple Corp. I have tried contacting the government here in Lounge but they were unwilling to assist in her rescue. The rebels in Otros have been all but wiped out and the few that are left are not sure if they should trust me I want you to help me recover my granddaughter and bring her back to Gamin to live with me. I have to tell you that I do not know where she is being held currently I am assuming in Otros but I am not sure, what I need you to do now is break into the Otros embassy in Vipa, go to the director’s office and find the files on where my granddaughter is being held as well as any info stored there on me and her. With this info I should be able to direct you to the correct location to break her out. The file are on encrypted mirco SD chips, please do not try to access them as they will overwrite themselves if someone without the correct credentials tries to access the info stored on them. Bring them back to me and I have the proper knowledge to access them.”

Danforth then opens a bottle of Samsung brand vodka and takes a long drink. “If you have any questions for me or feel like getting to know each other better now is the time to ask. I have arranged for you to stay here tonight I will be sleeping in room 201 on the second floor but will stay here for the time being to answer any questions you may have. Tomorrow you can depart on my boat to go to Vipa if none of you know how to sail I will gladly teach one of you the basics. And if there is anything any of you need let me know I will see hat I can do...oh and does anyone want a drink?”

Ask Danforth any questions you feel, as well as each other since you are all strangers. Once everyone is done getting to know each other and doesn't have any further questions for Danforth we will begin the journey to Vipa. I expect to start the journey around midnight EST tonight (after I get home from work so more like 1 AM but we can go earlier or later if needed once you are done with your questions let me know with a hide taged post :D
 
Zach says: Yes, I would love a drink. (Clears throat) My name is Zach. I came from a small underground colony known as The vault. It was there that I was born. It was there that I grew up. Life in the Vault was grand, no trouble and no worries. Until one day our leader the Overseers daughter was murdered and I was framed for her murder. I was exiled from the vault never to return again. I was on my own with nothing except the will to live and one day to return to my underground home and bring the one responsible to justest and clean my name. I hope to become fast friends with you all.
 
Danforth pours a drink and hands it to you. "Sounds like quite a life quest Zach, the Vault you speak of is it the same Vault that is located just outside of the Unat? If so you guys have a hard life to begin with. I am sure you were hardened by the time you left. I hate to hear that Veronica was murdered she was such a good girl, of course it has been years since I was there but I know her father and know that he loved her more than life itself"
 
Glancing from side to side, across the room at all the new faces. Listening to Zach's introduction, I look at Danforth.

"How do you propose we get into Vipa? There will be patrols. We can be assured of that."
While asking this, I help myself to some of the samsung vodka.
 
"There may be some but my boat will not show up on the scanning systems and if you are seen by the a patrol boat you should be fine as long as none of you are wanted criminals" looks at Zach, Danforth runs downstairs and comes back with an official looking letter and hands it to Cain. "This is a pass to get into Vipa, it is from one of my friends there at the Friscoterian mosque, if a patrol boat stops you present this and tell them you are going to see 'Leonard Estian' I will also provide each of you a fedora if you do not have one so you can look the part"

He then goes and retrieves 5 green fedoras and hands them to all members of the party.

"If anyone would like the religious texts I can get those as well, I am not here to convert you but the word of Frisco should be spread"

Danforth tops off Cain's and Zach's glasses then finishes the bottle and produces a half gallon of ZTE rum and sets that on the table "I've got more where that came from" then opens it and takes a big drink
 
Zach responded to Danfourth and said "No, life in the vault wasn't all bad though, I had a mom, brother and sister. It was, however, a shame that Veronica died. we began to develop feelings for one another. We even started to see each other. That is...until..."
I had to stop myself from going any further as I started to tear up. Then, I asked for another drink.
 
Danforth pours you another drink. "It's okay son. I too know the feeling of loss..."

Danforth then has a look of astonishment on his face "I forgot to tell you there may be some pirates as you get close to Vipa, they should be easy to deal with but you should be prepared" He then smiles and has another drink from the rum bottle.
 
Grabbing the papers that Danforth left on the table, Cain takes them and places them in his coat pocket.

After finishing his drink, he takes another look around the room. In a gruff voice to Danforth, he says a quick thanks.

"So, a vault life huh? Unat, how's that? I've never been there," Cain says to Zach with prolonged pauses.
