As a small interlude, I have been playing Liberal Crime squad for the first time. As expected, I have decided to use HMRC members for my Squad members. What follows is an account of our first month.
Leader's name is Jesus "Jim" Friend.
Went for what I assumed was mostly speechy answers, to make recruiting easier.
First thing I did was go to the Healthy Plan Juice Bar, in an attempt to recruit
some people. It went...alright. I managed to get two people interested, a judge
and a some guy involved in TV broadcasting. The judge ended up unpersuaded but
the broadcaster, robert, was convinced and became a sleeper agent. Figured it
might be useful to have such a thing in broadcasting, should the tides turn
against us. Kidnapped a conservitive actress, named her faith and, after 2 weeks
of interrogation, convinced her to join the cause.
I immediately set her up doing credit card fraud while I went back in the fray.
I head to the Bugbee apartments and, after wandering a bit, encounter a
mathmatitian and a teenager who I immediately talk into coming in for a meeting.
After that I smooth talk the landlord, hoping to, maybe, secure a free room.
Unfortunately...
Exactly what can you say about taxes to seem insane? Hmm.
Attempts to persuade the Mathmatician go equally poorly.
Damn you Jim. Damn you and your belief that we should eliminate polution by just
burning all the gasoline on earth so that it can't hurt anyone ever again. The
talks with the teenager go better, so we'll just have to see if we can convince
them eventually. In the mean time, Jim does community service to better our
image (I think?) and Faith keeps stealing credit card info. Though she seems bad
at it, since we've gotten no money so far. Her Highest skill is in computers
too!
I have Roberta quit his (His?) job and join us at the safe house. He has 4 skill
in martial arts, whiattempts at failing waste on his continuous failing at
embezzeling. In other news, Charlotte Shaw is redubbed "feyri" and Roberta
becomes Milno. And also she becomes a he.
And is immediately assulted by the police while selling special brownies.
Goddang it. She attempts to lose them. After a short chase she gets shot in the
right leg and surrenders, near death. Damn them.
After several minutes of trying in vain to figure out how to move Milno from one
safe house to another, I decided to just take Faith out on a recruitment drive.
I figured her innate feminine wiles would give us an edge.
I figured incorrectly.
Well, the first month has passed and...we're in the red 17 dollars.
In debt, one of our members is going to trial, and I have very little idea whats
going on otherwise. Clearly we are destined for great success.
