You think it over and decide on a job, "If you've got cash, I'll have Rogan's head in a week." Chut grins, obviously pleased, "Good, good, word of advice, watch out for his machete, fucker's wicked fast. Besta luck." You reply, "Thanks, if I'm not back in a week, I'm either dead or I've found a better way to spend my time." You leave before the ganger holds you up any longer, and make a beeline for the nearest camp checkpoint. After a moment's conversation with a sentry, you pass into the dark without hesitation.

Almost two days go by, you almost fall for a few false leads, but manage to stay on-course nonetheless. When you finally find Rogan, he's in a bit of a pickle. He and his men are in a wider open space between tunnels, and are struggling to fight off what look like a pack of drugged-up scavvies twice their number. After see one of the scavvies get his chest blown through his back and keep on coming, you realize these aren't normal scavvies. No, these are plague zombies, you've heard a bit about them, even seen one once, creeped you the fuck out. These things are mindless corpses, animated by evil witchcraft or maybe some kinda nasty disease they can spread, and what's worse, they can't stop trying to eat people.

You get bit, you'll catch their disease, if you're lucky or just a tough bastard, you'll catch a fever and be fine in a month, if not, you'll die, and then you'll get back up. It's not unheard of for one or two to be roaming the tunnels, but two or three dozen? Strange, to say the least. You're no meathead fighter, you stand back and let the two duke it out,

Rogan chops one's head clean off, and cuts down two more. For every one of his men, two of theirs go down, but the dead keep getting up once they're put down, and for the gangers, it's final. Half of Rogan's crew are dead or almost dead, the rest look like they're going to route any second now.

There's a lot of things you could do here, which is it?

A.) Use your sawn-off and blast Rogan while he's distracted!
B.) Sneak in there and stab Rogan while he's distracted!
C.) Use your sawn-off and blast the gangers while they're distracted!
D.) Sneak in there and stab the gangers while they're distracted!
E.) Stand back, let them fight, and finish off the winner!
F.) Bail, you can't risk getting ganked!
G.) Do something else instead, (Write-In)

Seems like it would be the obvious choice here.

G) Use the shotgun to take the plague zombies out.

Gangers respect strentgh, if we can save some of them and take out Rogan afterwards they'll be willing converts. You can't show plague zombies the way of hope.

E, we're here to make sure the guy's dead, if the Plague Zombies do our job for us, all the better.

You think about fighting the corpses, but there's a decent chance the gangers will unload on you if you show yourself... Best to watch and wait, safe and sound, out of sight, out of mind, and all that.

Oh, o-oh wow, y-you don't think you've ever seen that much gore... let alone, coming out of just one person, l-like, that... H-how did they move so quickly, they're corpses, is that, is that even possible? Shit, just, that's all you can say, really, just, shit... Fuck is that terrifying, you can't even begin to describe what you've just witnessed, just, fuck... That's the only word to describe it... Fuck. You know you'd intended to kill the guy, but, that's a bit much... You're glad you didn't jump in either side.

Every one of the gangers has been devoured, and not a single plague zombie was so much as wounded. You don't know how that happened, and to be frank, you really don't want to. It's that bad, you doubt the carrion rats would want anything to do with them, that's how bad it is. On the upside, you didn't have to waste a shell, but then again, you were really looking forward to testing your sawn-off on that gang leader. You can't risk them attacking you, so you toss a rock into the tunnel opposite of yourself. Luckily, the plague zombies are mindless enough they can't tell it was thrown to begin with, let alone which tunnel you're hiding in. They drunkenly shamble to follow it, and the almost harmless contrast to, what... happened... earlier, sends a shiver down your spine.

Three hour's wait later, the way is safe and you've got full access to the corpses. The horribly, horribly mutilated corpses, and everything they used to own... Is it really a good idea to pillage them like that, without gloves and everything? They're filthy, they're the beyond filthy kinda filthy, if you had a full stomach you'd be sick. Eh, screw it, beggars can't be choosers.

Along with Rogan's head and 20 Throne Gelt in coin, you have enough space for one of the following, which do you take?

A.) 30 Throne Gelt
B.) Scrap Machete and Scrap Shield
C.) Scoped Bolt Action Rifle, and 12 Bullets
D.) 4 Baggies of Blue Powder
E.) I-it's all just too much for you, (Don't grab anything)

A the money can be used to buy potentially better shit than the blood soaked equipment of these bastards.

We are an assassin, right? A scoped rifle is loss better than a shotgun for us.

Question to GM. When you said no zombies were harmed, you meant no further  zombies, correct? There was already mention of zombies getting killed in the first bit.

We are an assassin, rogue, spy, intricate web weaver. Close range is good and all, but long range is really where its at.

Spoiler:  GM Note (click to show/hide)

You're an assassin in the sense you're good at sneaking around, lying through your teeth, and watching people, not in the sense that you're a skilled sharpshooter. You'll receive no bonuses at close range, and penalties at mid to far range, until you've gained some marksmanship or rifle skill.

Yes, I'm sorry if I was unclear. Roughly a dozen zombies were killed earlier, last turn, something happened, and none of them were killed.

Glad you like it so far.

[Ardent Debater]

It's disgusting, but you don't know when you'll get another opportunity like this. You grit your teeth, mutter a prayer to the Architect of Fate, and proceed to plunder the corpses of anything valuable. After some time, you manage to find a relatively undamaged scoped bolt action rifle and a dozen rounds for it. In the dark and cramped Underhive there aren't many situations where a long ranged sniper rifle would come in handy, but it's certainly a sight more accurate than your shotgun, and costs nothing to carry, so you see no reason not to. Rifle slung over your shoulder, Rogan's savaged head in a sack, you strike off back where you came from.

You're almost halfway there when you hear the sound of bladed steel scraping stone. You turn in a split second, impaling yourself on a savage thrust; if you hadn't turned, your heart would've been pierced, as it is, your side is punctured and you're bleeding profusely.

It's all you can do not to collapse, but you utter a prayer to Tzeentch and keep standing. You grasp your wound, and realize it wasn't a thrust at all, but a thrown makeshift javelin! You look into the shadows in search of your attacker, and see perhaps a dozen men, each of them hardened killers. Their scrap armor is covered by a layer of pale leather, and the largest among them is wearing a human skull over his face. They each carry spears and machetes, and their leader wields a double-bladed axe you doubt you could lift. One of the men near the front hefts his spear, a javelin to throw and skewer you, no doubt, but his leader grips the handle beneath its blade, muttering something. Your would-be killer grins and his leader steps foward, bellowing,

"WEAKLING! SCHEMING COWARD, SPAWN OF CHANGE, I CHALLENGE YOU IN THE RED TYRANT'S NAME! CAST ASIDE YOUR ARMS, LIFT UP YOUR BLADE, AND LET US SLAY ONE ANOTHER IN GLORIOUS, SINGLE, COMBAT!!!"

First the plague zombies, now this??? It would be suicide to fight this man head on, what do you do?

A.) Draw your (Sawn-off/Bolt Action) and shoot him!
B.) Draw your Steel Knife and fight him!
C.) Attempt to negotiate with him!
D.) Run into the nearest tunnel as quickly as your legs can carry you!
E.) Pray to Tzeentch for a miracle!
F.) Do something else instead! (Write-In)

Do or die here folks. I doubt we could win with a knife and a javelin in us, but maybe a shotgun would work...

shotgun, not rifle. I don't trust this guy to go down from a single bullet.

Nobody likes khorne flakes. Buckshot to the face!

Also, the rifle needs to be added to our inventory.
