OOC: I may be offline for a few days. The electric company informed me there may be a power outage in my area this weekend.

Oops, some confusion...
I have Logan, Henry, and Victor going to Port Control, presumably they are the ones at the permit office.
I have Sharon, Lukasz, and Zebulon going seeking the church, with Mother and Jack tailing. I am remiss and have not posted any results of that...
Before I post anything more, can we clear things up a bit? I'm ok with seeking the church having been set aside to have a joint group go to the permit office.

I'm happy to focus on the permit office inquiry.

We may as well continue playing the office permit thread.
If we're going as two groups, maybe the next group can try persuading the clerk to give us the permit.

To sort of fix things, I'm going to say the church investigation led to the same permit office (which actually makes some sense). So the plan is for a second group to wait for the Lombard Clinic guy to leave? And the plan for him is?

Last I heard, Jack and Logan were going to tail the nurse, while Zeb tries to bribe the clerk. If both groups have come together, maybe someone else with the bribery skill can attempt to bribe the clerk instead, Since Zeb failed to influence the clerk the first time, a second attempt may not go so well. Perhaps a fresh face may accomplish more.

Ok, so I think Logan, Zebulon, and Sharon went into the office. That leaves Mother with Streetwise-1 as your only other person with any people skills. You also have folks with Jack-of-all-Trades and Gambling. There's also Lukasz with Religion. Of course anyone can talk to folks.

IAC, Jack and Logan are trailing the nurse....where does he go?

During the bribery attempt, Zeb will just have to explain to the clerk how hostile the hospital staff was. Imagine the workers getting hostile when you're trying to visit a sick friend!

Ok, I think Zebulon, Logan, and Sharron leave the permit office and wait for the Lombard Clinic nurse to leave.
The Jack and Mother team which has not shown it's face in any offices yet will be well placed to tail the nurse.
Is Logan also going to join the tail?
Once the nurse leaves, Zebulon, and who else will re-enter the clinic?
What do Henry, Victor, Sharron, and Lukasz want to do?

I think Sharon will stick with Zeb, although I'm not sure what help she can be.

If Zeb's bribery attempt fail, maybe Sharon can intimidate the clerk.

Post by Starbeard on Dec 20, 2019 16:47:22 GMT -6
Well, in her mind she is pretty good at cracking knuckles. She'll muscle in and try intimidation if it starts to look like the bribery won't get us anywhere.

Ok, you leave and watch for the Lombard Clinic person to leave. Shortly after they leave, you re-enter.
When you re-enter, the clerk says "You again, you think that just because Terry left that I'll suddenly issue a permit. Clearly you don't understand things here." Zebulon realizes the clerk just hit an alarm button. "Now get yourselves out of here and I suggest you depart the planet."
Original reaction roll was 2, modifier reaction roll was 5...

Tailing the clinic guy (Terry), he heads deeper into the star port town, do you want to continue to follow (and who is actually following him)?

Are Terry the clinic We don't want to draw too undue attention, so I think just Jack, Logan and Mother are ideal.
Sharon shows to the clerk that she'll obey and leave. Once she's outside she won't rush herself to get back to the ship, and will keep an eye out for tails and guards.

Zeb has had enough. He pulls out his pistol and fires two shots close to the clerk.
"You call off your dogs, or the next round will be in between your eyes! Got it?" With that he points his pistol at the clerk's head.
(Sorry folks, I've had a really bad day, and I need to blow off some steam.)

"Well that settles things!" Sharon pulls out her pistol and gets into a position to ambush anyone coming through the door.

OOC: We can retcon that last scene if people prefer. I was in a really bad mood when I posted, so if you want to avoid combat with at the clerk's office, that's okay with me. On the other hand, the action has really been dragging in the game, so we can just run it to spice things up.

Sharon's ready to pump iron. We might as well try it, all this sneaking around hasn't seemed to get us very far around here.

We ought to leave someone on lookout just in case of trouble. That is what Logan is doing. He's across the street planning to do overwatch. Does he hear the gunshots?

BTW, a new player is about to join, he has been playing in my Rol20 RQ game for about a year. The gun play will be the perfect trigger to have his character join the fray.
