"Don't mind us, sir! Actually, I think I have something to show you!~"

Int roll to... seduce? that guard. Walk up to him all friendly like, then gently poke him and cast LargeFirearm / Ammunition into his chest. Why use a word material when I can use a material already in the world?

Spoiler: Raven Feathra (click to show/hide)

Description: Raven is a VERY RAVENY GIRL. She has black hair, dark blue eyes, and looks all edgy and shit. She's really too young to lead a wizard gang, but carries herself with confidence and Murder. She is deadly intelligent, but is lacking in common sense, as normal for teenagers. Also she is obsessed with birds.

"Hey good looking, whats coo-" you start, but the man suddenly steps back away from you and raises the gun right up to your nose. You look down it, crosseyed.

"Just keep your distance." He says, "A no one gets perforated."

"Sir, sir! I figured out how to acquisition guns! First you need to make like you're from Detroit and cover yourself in them hip tar-toos, then you poke yourself in the eye for a bit and then think about making guns! It's so much faster than gong through the logistics officer. A little painful though."

Give the rifle to Sarge, he's the best shot in our platoon. Then take cover somewhere and watch things unfold. If a guard should bite the dust, scurry over and take his weapons.

Spoiler: Abu Hajaar (click to show/hide)

Name: Rifleman first class Abu Hajaar

Description: A scrawny enlistee of vaguely Middle Eastern descent. Permanently in over his head, slightly confused and wondering just how he got into this mess. Will reluctantly but reliably follow orders from his commanding officers and do his best however.

Somehow managed to end up far away from home in 'Nam to fight the commies. This left him confused. Then he got teleported to this world of mystery and magic. This did not help matters.

He listens to you with a blank expression before looking over your shoulder and seeing your companions. Specifically he seems to notice the cockwork crows and the rifle  Abu is holding.

cockwork crows

Stop dicking around pw, sheesh.

You hand the rifle to Murphy before scuttling over and hiding between the train engine and the car.

Corven scratches at his chin before responding, his expression quite calm despite the circumstances  "Well, my daughter's playin' with sum birds, but not really sure about those goons, still don understood their babble.  Lotta posturing they do, doesn't mean nothing."

Just talk, in the vain hope that answering his question will distract him long enough for someone else to do something.  If he starts aiming his gun at anyone, especially Corven's daughter, throw a rock into his skull.  Try to resist the urge to do that if her seduction works.

Description: An older man past his prime, Corven still carries himself with the intimidating aura you'd expect from a crime boss... except when he's dealing with his daughter, who he's completely incapable of saying "No" to.  That usually works out better than you'd expect, since he managed to get her the formal education he never had, though he still has wisdom on her.  Has something of an unhealthy obsession with birds, though not nearly as much so as his daughter.

The goon points his gun at your daughter after her admittedly terrible attempt to seduce him. Something inside you is rather happy that your daughter is so apparently terrible at seduction. Still, pointing a gun at her is unacceptable. You take the rock you picked up earlier and hurl it straight at the man's face. [4v1][4v4] The rock catches him on the cheek and raises a bleeding gash. He stumbles to the side but doesn't go down.

Sarge takes the rifle and gives it a once over. He is not amused.

"What is this? What the fuck is this? I asked you for a good old fashioned American firearm, and you give me this overengineered kraut piece of shit! I swear to the good lord in heaven, abu hajaar, if we weren't knee deep in Charlie's shithole I would make you do pushups until you pass out right now."

Halfway through his little rant, he looks up from the kraut rifle and sees Abu walk off to take cover.

"Rifleman, I like the way you think, but DON'T YOU DARE IGNORE ME!"

Go take cover together with Abu Hajaar and also watch the situation unfold.

Name: Gunnery Sergeant James Murphy

Description: A big bull of a man, with a square jaw and a patriotic twinkle in his eye. He enjoys swearing and giving people under his command a hard time.

Somehow managed to catch the second plane to 'Nam to fight the commies, even though he was aiming to be on the first. This left him slightly bitter. Then he got teleported to this world of mystery and magic. This doesn't change matters much, Charlie just a look a little different 'round these parts.

[4v3][4v6] The Goon straightens up from the blow and takes a shot at Corven. He doesn't get out of the way but the shot goes a bit wide, hitting him in the thigh. He makes a very high pitched noise, like a boiling kettle, and drops to one knee.

Trip the guy up with my legs, roll on top of him, and bash away with the rock.

You shake off the blow and roll, tangling your legs in the legs of the deserter. You twist and pull him down before scrambling on top of him. He throws his hands up to hold you off but you shove them aside and drive the stone straight into his forehead. The sharp edge punches 4 or 5 inches through the bone and the man goes limp, blood flowing from his nose.

Ride over to the end of the catwalk (heh) and jump off towards the man at 5-6, then punch him. Have my tiger take out the other one.

((Maybe I should just have the tiger walk menacingly towards them? Can enemies get freaked out enough to run away?))

You ride the tiger to the end of the catwalk and leap off as you reach the platform. You point at the man on the other side of the platform and the beast bounds over to him.  You run over to the other an and level a punch at his head. [3v1][3v3] You catch the man in the jaw and send him stumbling but he stays on his feet. [6v5][6v2] The tiger has much better luck; it surges up to the man and plants two huge paws on his shoulders. With a flex of metallic muscle it slams him to the ground and fastens its jaws around his throat. He screams for a moment before the creature twists and pulls, yanking the man's head clean off.

[4v5][5v5] The gunman recovers from the punch and takes a swing with his rifle. Shade throws his hands up and partially blocks the blow, protecting his head but catching the heavy wooden stock against the bones of his forearms. He can feel them rattle.

Down below, another man runs into  the gate area and sees Thag. He raises a rifle and fires. [5v2] The shot hisses over Thag's head and shatters a small crater in the stone behind him.

[Rautherdir]

Okay. Activate the stored spell on my body this time, and then punch the guy again. Direct the tiger towards the two men below.

"Who's been grinding people up in here?"
I will check the contents of the bags.

You walk over to one of the bags. Its been colonized by weevils and is quite old, but there's still something weird about it. Its a white powder like flower, but when you touch it it feels greasy or fatty and rougher than flower. Its also got a slightly yellow tinge to it.

Use a classic invisible thing-hunting trick- spread flour throughout the air so that it will stick to/be moved by invisible things, enabling us to see them.

Then head up to the next floor, or go down to the cellar if we're on the top floor.

You grab a handful of beetle infested "Flour" and toss it into the air. However, it doesn't act like flour, it doesn't hang nicely in the air. It just sort of clumps and falls softly to the ground and the weevils scatter in confusion.  You don't see anything in that spray though.

Go down and look if i can get into the basement

You walk back outside and try the cellar doors. It has a heavy chain wrapped between the handles of the door with a huge iron padlock holding it shut.



There is a loud thumping from inside the house and papaj (WHO NEEDS TO POST THEIR SHEET) looks through the window above the cellar door and sees a corpse laying on the table inside. It is heavily rotted and mangled, with its limbs pulped into an unrecognizable mush.

So, uh, why did the guard shoot Corven instead of the woman right in front of him?

Head upstairs and check the area out.

So, who's gonna go (re?)animate that corpse?

[syvarris]

((Because the woman right in front of him is just an unarmed girl, while the guy who he shot just brained him with a thrown rock.  Makes sense to shoot the guy who's actively attacking you.))

(If you have a spell on your body, keeping the [pot+X] I give with it is a good idea. Just to make sure I get it right)

You activate the tatoo on your body and the marks glow red as they wait to be fully triggered.
[4v4][4v3][8v4] You swing at the man's face and just barely connect, your knuckles sliding across his jaw. But as you make contact, the spell activates. Shockwave is a form and as such without a material is basically useless. It comes out as nothing more than a vague pulse of magic that flows outward, about as strong as a single-handed shove to the chest. Under almost any other circumstance, it would be a waste; but a single handed shove is all that was needed to unbalance the man and send him tumbling off the edge of the platform to his death.


That done, you turn to the tiger and point down  at the men below. It coils and leaps down. [4v5] The men below here the leap and dodge out of the way as the big cat lands in their midst.

Grab the rifle and climb the ladder north of me to get to the upper level, and break line of sight of the gunmen.
