I am returned. Comp was shut down until a moment ago. Server is back up with an autosave. No idea how far back it is though. Nor do I know what happened. Glad my brothers and I decided just to shop for food and not actually eat out.

1 hour - give Will and Vivian imp corpses
5 hours - experimentation(time +10)(connection +20)(faith -10)(intuition - 10)[+5]
This thing's never been agreeable, but its lust for power should help keep me safe for at least another try. Maybe it thought the combination was meant to be permanent, but I know enough not to make it so. Another try at combining, and if that doesn't work, I'll just have to rely on Adrian.
6 hours - chore(Graveyard Cowboy)[+10]
I'm taking that Eric kid, his specialty is the undead from what I gathered from the fight. He'll be more help than could be asked for on this kind of job.

New!!! Carpetbaggers: (7 Days Left) Three Archmages from the Boston Magic Society have arrived in town looking to take advantage of the situation and claim power for themselves. Show them, by any means nessescary, that saving California is Ms. Sapphire's job; not theirs.
Great Escape: (3 Days Left) Palorur The Blender was a powerful local mage sealed away in Tartarus, one of the hells. Sapphire figures that if he can be sprung from his infernal prison, he can help restore balance and order to the Southwest.
Nipped in the Bud: (4 Days Left) Without the local Board of Subhuman affairs to keep them in check, the local Were Being population is planning a huge coming out party for the next full moon. That cannot be allowed to happen.
Special Job: Surfs Up: (9 Days Left) Extra dimensional jocks, bros, and frat boys have figured out that this region is a lawless wasteland, and are throwing a huge beach party/surf contest in town. While this job is active, anybody may work on the beach as a supervisor for 100 USD an hour. For each three hours spent at the party you will encounter a luck based random event.

Job Clock Updated. If anybody has any objections to doing Last Rites Monday, speak now or forever hold your peace.

1 hours: Ariel calls up the seed shop with some questions:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

-Can a Naturia Flytrap be passed off as human once fully grown?
-Do the flytraps retain their intellect and/or souls?
-Are the Black and White Corn Kernals on offer still fertile?
-What sort of souls can I expect out of the soulshrooms? Good? Evil? Random?
-Do you do mail order on seeds?

2 hours: Sort through the massive pile of 15 books we have, figuring out what each is about. Once that's done, post a notice in the dining hall with the info asking people to list which ones they want in order of preference.
1 hours: Water Audrey Jr. then take her with me to Kestrel when I inquire about the Great Escape job - is there an easy way to get into and out of Tartarus unseen and, if so, do you think I could give the mission a shot?
4 hours: Head back to that park and get my exorcism on, again planning to condense it if I catch it. +20 faith to exorcise that wisp.
4 hours: Blast the second demon soul and establish ownership over it. +20 Connection.

Job Vote: Nipped in the Bud. As much as it would help for us to rescue Palorur, preventing a huge werewolf rampage is more important.

1 hours: Check and reset traps

4 Hour: Create many mud oozes. +20 Knowledge -3 neck +17 total

3 Hours: Work on a miniature clay statue of Kathryn (I don't know how you would classify this, threes hours is longer then I have ever worked clay in one sitting, but Henry is much better then me. So I have no idea if this falls under a action that takes less then four hours or not.It has been far far to long since Henry simply worked clay and not magic. It was time to make a outlet for his creative energy

I really don't know much about clay or the buying of it. But this page makes it look like I could buy about 20 pounds for 10-15 bucks. Might as well throw in some slip (unlikely that any would be left over even if there was a clay mage around before the whole death thing so I guess I might as well pick some up.) So maybe 20 bucks for 20 pounds of med-high quality clay?

1 Hours-Help Henry work out the kinks in his neck! (Body: 40, at +10 Mod, N/a Time Mod...final, +10)

That Stone-bro had did a number on poor Henry. Kathryn thought a little soothing neck massage would do him good. She would probably enjoy it as much as he, if not more so. Fufufu.

1 Hours/Talking to Kestrel, doing laundry, tidying up.

She had a bit of money...and she needed to find out what this egg was all about. Maybe other questions too, while she was cleaning all the blood, sweat and tears our of her clothes. (mini-RP?)

4 Hours/Practicing Water Effects, working toward Mastery (Connection: 32, at +10 Mod, +5 comfortable casting, +0 Time Mod...final, +15)

Having gotten used to the basics of water magic, Kathryn decided to concentrate on developing a new form of attack-increasing the pressure of her summoned water, effectively making it able to harm someone, and lengthening it's range.

2 Hours/Take Shelly to the mall for some personal time if she likes, so she can buy things for her new room.

Also, depending on how much money I have left, buy two shiny new 45. pistols and 5 clips. Keep one pistol, give the other one and clips to Henry. Also some stuff for her cute Parakeets.

Buy any other things Henry asks for me to pick up that we can afford, as well.

Go big Sis! Shelly reminded Kathryn of how she had been when she was younger-on the outside looking in. Spending time with her time came easily.

She and Henry also needed new guns-and her birds needed more food and a bigger cage. D'aaaw.

4 Hours/Exercise! (Body: 40, at +10 Mod, +0 Time Mod...final, +10)

Noting that the last mission gave her an immense advantage over her less than fit teammates-particularly in the realm of running away from danger-Kathryn decided to keep up her training.

Works for me Crypt. Add it to your inventory.

[Criptfeind]

Okay. Crap. I keep forgetting I need a weapon. Can you tell me before you go Dwarmin? I will pay.

Edit: Also, would it be out of line to ask to retcon in a few bottles of glaze as well?

[Dwarmin]

Yeah, assume IC wise Kath tells Henry she's picking him up a spare gun when she goes shopping that day, and he can pay for it if he likes-along with any other stuff he needs, that I can pick up while out.

[Weirdsound]

Okay. Crap. I keep forgetting I need a weapon. Can you tell me before you go Dwarmin? I will pay.

Edit: Also, would it be out of line to ask to retcon in a few bottles of glaze as well?

Not at all. Retcon in all the pottery material you can reasonably carry from one trip to the art store.

[Dwarmin]

Minor edit on my turn to reflect changes.

[Weirdsound]

I think we are just missing Tar's action. I'm glad to see last night was the wake up call needed to get you all helping each other.

[Taricus]

I would've gotten it up by now if you all didn't keep posting :|


EDIT: Anyway, here's the turn:

3 Hours: Laser App casting/material scrounging (Casting this on the laser sight of the shotgun.) Time to give the laser sighting mechanism a litle more... kick.
1 Hour: Information digging. Time to learn what old man Kestrel knows about Mr.Travis. (Payment is with Fool's Gold.)
5 Hours: Shotgun improvement/Enchanting. See if I can't make the shotgun more accurate, by any means necessary.
2 Hours: Coding experimentation. A nice bit of relaxation would do good, and practice makes perfect...
1 Hour: Shopping time. Buying a five radio headsets to improve with the crystalline radio spell, as well as enough pink/clear crystals to turn into dust for the spell.

[Haika]

Today's To-Do List:

Aura Update - Checking the crits from the session, and making sure all purchases and amounts are up to date.
Shop Update - New items!
Paycheck and HP tally - It's about time we get this going and updated so people know how much hp they should have.
Mod Update - New numbers should let people pile up mods good and bad without too much trouble.
Chore Board Update - New jobs

And Finally, if all the actions are in, I'll run a turn. But I expect people may want me to wait until I get some of the other stuff above done first.

[Criptfeind]

Can I just buy like 80 dollars of glaze in varying colors and just have 'enough for a while in the colors I need' or should I pick them out by color and price and stuff?
