This turn was, essentially, done twice. I had most of it done on my thumbdrive, and then I tried to give a friend a game that was on it, and all the data was corrupted. It is a 2Gb hard drive, and it said there was over 200 Gb of stuff on it. I tried deleting it, but that failed. I ended up having to format the thing, which, luckily, worked. Unfortunately the turn wasn't backed up onto my laptop, so I had to re-do the turn. After I had completed it the second time, Exetel decided to perform maintenance on my internet, so I couldn't post it. That is why it took 3 days.
Turn 17 - Oh no! Backstory!I take the water from the glass and put it in my waterskins (if they are empty). If my waterskins are full, or if I can do more after filling them, I'll go ahead and try and clean off my robes and hat a bit with the brush.
[4] You clean your robes off slightly. They look cleaner and more white. You hear a racket from outside. You also notice that the rain is backing off.
try to send the magic cop insane by sending mental pictures of the deamon i encountered earlier
[2] He has stopped his scan, so all you can do is think really hard about demons.
go inside and talk to Lauren, while keeping an eye out for my golems, if they seem to be in danger go help them instead
[3] You head inside and Lauren starts to barricade the door behind you. You look around and the entire house has been barricaded, metal shutters replacing the once inviting windows, and the cabinets which contain the loot are also reinforced with metal plating, and locked to tightly only a key could get into them. You are sure Lauren would have the only key on her person.
I'll take the last job offer
[5] You accept the job with the other theatre group. The main guy in it hands you a script, and tells you to memorise the part labelled Selene. It is, by far, the largest part in the entire play.
[4] You get to work reading over the script. You have memorised the first of 4 acts in the play.
Finish off the other two and then put a bullet in the one I got in the knee just to be sure.
[4
+1] The rain has eased, and your accuracy goes unhindered.
[3-1/1-1/Autofail] The first one goes down from a shot to the stomach, the second from a shot to the neck, and because he isn't moving, the one you shot before dies from a masterfully executed shot through the face. People are gathering around the dead, wondering what the hell is going on. It is safe to say that all three are dead. You see some people heading for your warehouse, because they think there is a murderer in there... And they're right. No-one has phoned the police yet.
Look out of the window and have illusionary lightning strike a passenger! Then have random crazy stuff happen on the streets.
[2] You simply cannot maintain an epic fight in the abandoned house AND make illusions outside.
[1] Even though the solution is obvious, you do nothing about it.
Anyway. Start contemplating on how to make universes in an contained space. Preferably start preparing for such an creation.
[3] Even though you can manipulate the flow of time in the universe, you believe that it would be utterly impossible to create an entire universe, even if you were a master of every magic. You might, however, be able to distort this universe to your will.
I tell One to go out and steal some valuables. I tell Two and Three to guard the entrance. I then try to create a small metal golem.
[1] Your orders go through, but you fail to manipulate metal in any way, shape, or form. You try to for a minute, and end up just believing that metal is fundamentally different from earth.
Well, I pick the guy up regardless, and scan the street for potential witnesses.
[2] You pick the guy up, but the street is full of potential witnesses who are now exiting the theatre. You drive around a block north, because you have no idea where this guy wants you to go. He is getting mad about it.
Cast spell to make self blend in better to the alleyways and go looking for someone to take out.
[5] You make yourself slightly transparent, and the part of you that is visible is incredibly dark coloured, you can rest assured that as long as you are in the shadows, you will be VERY hard to spot. You are now
Melded into the shadows.
Time:8:50 AM
Weather: [3] The rain subsides.
News: [2] There is more propoganda about voting yes in tonight's referendum, and another bug chunk on the ruined building.
NPC ActionsRush to the cops and attack!
[3] Ii rushes at the cops, but they flee from it.
Load the cannon for later.
[5] It takes another chunk of cop car and loads it into the cannon. It then walks up to Lauren's house and takes a defensive position.
Go to the house.
[3] This one is not used to moving just yet, but it manages to make it to the house without breaking anything.
Tell Kyeti her side of the story.
[5] She talks to you. "I never intended for you to get into this. I'm a thief if you haven't figured it out yet, and I recently went to the museum. You see, the people at the museum are protecting not just old artifacts, but modern loot! I think it is an entire conspiracy to get money, so I decided to lower their money-making ability by stealing some of these statues." She motions to the shelves, which are sealed. She goes to one and opens it, inside there are numerous ancient statues, and she takes a silver one out. It looks old, but still has its shine. "This one is the oldest. Not the most valuable, but the oldest. It was stolen from some pharoah's tomb in Thebes ages ago, and got sold. It was found in Rome. Whoever stole it must travel. I say this because it was my grandfather's find. He got fired soon after finding it, so I took it back. If I only knew where he was, I'd return it to him. I've been taking things ever since, because I just have a knack for doing it." She puts the statue back into the shelving as more cop cars show up. The magic cops have vanished from view, and 5 cops get out of the cars. Two of them are unarmed, presumably magic users. Lauren re-seals the shelf and gets her gun ready.
Loot!
[3] It heads out, and you lose sight of it. You do hear some noise from a nearby house, and assume that One is looting it.
Guard the entrance.
[4] It goes to the entrance and strikes a
menacing pose.
Guard the entrance.
[4] Three also goes to the entrance, but strikes a different pose. It strikes a
defensive pose.
Give a jolly good chase.
[2] It runs for the front door, but loses its direction and ends up right back where it started.
Give demands.
[6] He takes a megaphone and starts shouting out over-the-top demands. He says that if Gabriel surrenders, he will only be mildly bashed in interrogations, and only mildly beaten to a pulp. The other cops look at him strangely.
Still asleep.
Wake the other guy up.
[2] He fails, the guy must be in a very deep sleep!
Get the backup shotgun from the car.
[1] He goes to the car he came in and looks around, but can't find a shotgun. He ravages the entire car but finds nothing, hitting his head many times. (Loses his ability to use magic, until it is healed)
They have legged it.
Advance on the house.
[2] They all move forward in a bunch. Straight into the Blender golem. It looks menacing.
Make our presence known.
[5] The two of them make the air incredibly cold and announce to no-one in particular: "Never fear, your doom is here!" This is followed by maniacal laughter and shivering from everyone else.
[5] Everyone heads near something warm, be it a car, heater or flaming car pieces.
