Joun might as well go back to the base, nothing to do here aka the warehouse

((Kekekekekee, have fun with the Police, though I doubt you'll have as much of an issue as I did.))

Go around to various pawn shops, selling loot in increments of $500 to avoid raising any suspicion about someone coming in and dumping $3206 in various items all at once, and also sell one (1) of my "Glorified Clubs"  while I'm out and find an apartment, preferably on the north end of town. Once I've settled in to an apartment if I find one, wonder at EVIL's very good replicators, seeing as they managed to send me another "Suspicious Glowing Liquid", but it's best not to try it, as they may have sent it by accident and may want it back. Best to just hang on to it for now. While allowing myself to have the appearance of relaxing in my apartment, try out the "Standie-Talkie" and see if there's anyone in range that may be interesting to talk to, and plug in the Tasers to recharge.

Day 5 - 01:01 (T-Turn - 2)

The orphans seem to be adapting to their life of slavery, mostly because you're never around to whip them or anything like that. Plus making wallets is less tedious than listening to endless sermons about King Pope Snake. With 30 more wallets in your inventory, you get some sleep and enjoy a nice, big breakfast. After all, you'll need lots of energy to commit nefarious deeds!

Really, what can you do to snazz up a knife like this? Sure, you could add gold and jewels and other fancy stuff on it, but what's the point? For a common, average, work-a-day knife, you wouldn't want to fancy it up so much in case the you break or ruin it. What you want is a common, easy to get knife. That way, it's not some distinctive piece of evidence they can use when you stab a man with it. Knowing you, you'll stab a lot of men with it.

You head over to your restaurant to check out this "Aleksander". He must be important, seeing as his name is in air quotes. When you enter the restaurant, it's pretty obvious who Aleksander is, since he has a rocking beard, and he's the only hobo sitting. Admittedly he's sitting on a folding lawn-chair, but presumably the hobos didn't have a throne or pile of skulls for him to sit on. Flanking Aleksander is a couple of burly vagrants, clad in crude armour and wielding makeshift weapons that would probably be banned by the Geneva Convention if they knew they existed. If the hobo's think that they could intimidate you with this display of force, then they will be pleasantly surprised. Still, a pile of skulls would be awesome.

Grinning, Aleksander waves you over to his lawn-chair. Or at least you think he's grinning. It's hard to tell with all that hair.

"Ah, Alexander. I'm sorry that we had to become involved in your affairs. However, since I am here, perhaps we could discuss some... obligations you have? I assure you that they won't be terribly onerous for you."

Seeing that Aleksander has enough bits of food tucked in his beard already, you chow down on some kebabs while you think about your reply.

Jessica relays her request to see the embassy to the manager of the hotel, since the elevators won't operate for any curious bystanders. The manager glances at Jessica over his book.

"No."

"Please?" Jessica asks, as she blasts him with her psi powers.

"No."

Jessica gives him a bit more juice. "Pretty please?"

"No."

Jessica screws up her eyes and unleashes the full extent of her psychic powers. The fake plants rattle a bit, and all batteries in a two metre radius recharge slightly. "Pretty, pretty please with a cherry on top?"

The manager puts down his book and stares at Jessica for a couple seconds, his browns creased in intense concentration.

You fall asleep in your little storage box, with thoughts of firebombing, ambushes and murder racing through  your head. Sadly all of your innovation points are locked in the UT-I, so nothing amazing stays in your head when you wake up.

Skills: None
Weapon Proficiencies: Knives (ACC: +10%, DMG: +1)
Effects: None

Named Weapons:
UT-I: DMG: 8 RoF: 1 ACC: 65% CAP: 0 x 3
Consumes 2 Innovation Points.
Special: Grenade: This weapon is a grenade and can be thrown with a 45% chance of landing where you want it to.
            Sticky, Burny Death: This grenade sticks to its target, whether it's a person, vehicle or the ground. When stuck it cannot be removed, and the blast will be centred around the target it is stuck to (thus if you hit a person, the blast will hit the poor sap and whoever is around him). Additionally, if the grenade is fumbled, then it will automatically stick to the thrower. This grenade causes fire damage to whoever it hits.
            Named Explosive: Only by forgetting the recipe for the UT-I will the innovation points it consumes be released. Running out of UT-Is will not release those innovation points, but creating more of these grenades will not cost you additional innovation points. Three UT-Is can be made using four basic chemicals and one can of biofuel.
Description: The UT-I is based around a highly secretive, and slightly unstable, chemical mixture that's basically napalm turned up to 11. It makes an effective anti-personnel grenade, since it is able to create a fireball hot enough to immolate anything caught inside of it. Of course the UT-I isn't exactly the highest quality grenade in the world, which means that it's deadliness is greatly reduced.

Weapons:
Glorified Club: DMG: 1 RoF: 0 ACC: 45% CAP: 0
Special: Nighty Night: Sneak attacks with this weapon always knocks a target out, assuming that they have no protection against being knocked out.
Description: Unlike those common, run-of-the-mill clubs, this one is crafted with tender and loving care, greatly increasing its value. It's not deadlier than a regular golf club though. After all, at the end of the day you're still just hitting someone with a giant stick.

Golf Club: DMG: 1 RoF: 0 ACC: 45% CAP: 0
Special: Handicap: DMG: 2 when at less than 50% health.
Description: Not to be confused with a regular club, which the golf club pretends doesn't exist. Millions of people use this to whack little white spheres, when they could be using it to whack other people.

Pistol: DMG: 1 RoF: 2 ACC: 50% CAP: 12 (9mm)
Special: None.
Description: The USLE-55 was designed specifically for use by every other guy in the street. It's lightweight, easy to use, and weak enough to pose very little treat to anybody with half a knowledge of tactics.

SMG: DMG: 2 RoF: 6 ACC: 45% CAP: 24 (9mm) (Equipped)
Special: Spray and Pray: May make multiple attacks a round, at ACC: 33%
Description: As an entry-level SMG, the SrP could be worse. Sure, the gun is as flimsy as hell, and the sights are calibrated horribly, and the clips can accept only 24 rounds of ammo if you don't want the thing to jam...

When you return to the warehouse, you find it completely empty. Well, the insides at least. The outsides are swarming with policemen. Using your powers of common sense, you decide not to stick around the place.

Unfortunately the RNG decides not to smile on you, and you don't get a blow-by-blow to make your turn semi-useful. A real shame that is. But at least you aren't hung-over.

Special: Aim For The Head: 15% chance to do DMG: 12 on a hit. 100% chance vs. zombies.
Description: A sawn-off Bethesda P-99. Why they had to use a Bethesda P-99 is beyond you, since it doesn't really seem like a good weapon to make a sawn-off with. Still, if you ever wanted to fight a hoard of zombies, look no further. Works well against a horde of zombies too.

Shotgun: DMG: 2 RoF: 1 ACC: 40% CAP: 6 (7 Gauge)
Special: Come At Me Bro: DMG: 4 and ACC: 75% while out of cover.
Description: Small yet powerful, the Bethesda P-99 is useful for those who aren't afraid to take risks, or stand in the middle of a firefight blowing people's limbs off.

Revolver: DMG: 1 RoF: 1 ACC: 50% CAP: 6 (.34)
Special: I Am The Law: ACC 75% against criminals.
Description: The revolver has been a tool of law agencies everywhere, mostly because they are too lasy to purchase new guns. While the .34 revolver isn't as glamorious as the .44 Magmum or .666 Hellblaster, it gets the job done when you need it most. Unless you're facing a tank that is. Then you're on your own.

Selling the loot goes by without a hitch (the glorified club was worth fifty bucks), and renting an apartment in the middle of the night was surprisingly easy. And cheap too! Only 15 dollars a day! Mind you the view is crap, since it overlooks some random storage place, but once you close the curtains it's all very nice.

Sadly the tasers seem to need some sort of special plug or station to recharge properly. The common household power outlet just doesn't work. Still, you have high hopes for the Standie-Talkie. After all, there has to be at least somebody within 50 metres who has another one, right?

Special: Ra-tat-tat: May attack twice a combat round.
         Bullet Impediment: RoF is based on the roll of a d10. The RoF changes before each attack.
Description: The UM-45 is named for the fact that it sounds like a person with a speech impediment trying to imate the sound that a SMG makes. Besides a variable rate of fire, the gun is very reliable. Plus, it comes with a built-in ashtray, which is handy for the smoking crazied gunman.

Special: Liquid Angony: Stuns enemies for 1-3 combat rounds on a hit, provided that the enemy can be stunned or isn't immune to electrical weaponry.
         'Non-Lethal' My Ass: 5% chance to kill an enemy with a heart attack on a hit. Obviously not a problem if the enemy doesn't have a heart to begin with.
Description: As technology advances, the effectiveness of long-range non-lethal weaponry will only decline in strength and powerful. Before you know it we'll have jetpacks, sicksticks, scantilly clad women who can predict crime before it happens, but no way to subdue a criminal who's a couple feet outside your reach. It's a shame, I tell ya. Better enjoy this taser pistol while it lasts.

After several hours of waiting, you decide to go find your mysterious companion. It shouldn't take this long to get the police. Eventually you manage to find him, sprawled on the ground with his head in an odd position. Seeing a couple people are standing nearby, you head over to their direction to ask what happened.

"I dunno. This man was just running down the street when he slipped, fell and broke his neck. I called an ambulance a couple hours back, but it still hasn't arrived, since's it's carnival, so the streets will be clogged."

Due to a clerical mix-up, the members of Project EVIL were given a highly unstable and radioactive liquid instead of the sleeping pills you were supposed to test. Oops, our bad. As a 'sorry that you'll get cancer' gift, the testing of our latest bacon-flavoured mouthwash will be given to members of Project EVIL instead of The Legion of Mercenaries. Don't worry, it's not made with real bacon.

"Hello? Starlight Limo Service...I'm calling on behalf of my client, Mr. Ujarak Simpson...and, Mr. simpson need some confirmation from my end, or HEADS WILL ROLL...."

Action: Call around for Limo services-start with the most ritzy one. Act like a fiery advocate for Ujarak Simpson, demanding to know when and where he's going to be picked up, or heads will roll. Find out which company is picking him up, and which driver is doing the pickup, so I can do a 'background check"

[monk12]

Well then! Time for some midnight skullduggery.

Lock the doors, windows, and especially the fire escapes to keep the orphans contained during my extended hiatus. Then, head to Ujarak's factory and scope it out- check probable entries, size, neighboring buildings, friendly neighborhood, etc.

There was only one person Kane knew of that knew he had a talkie, and had one of thier own - his mysterious tote bag wearing accomplice from the overly complicated beach raid. Well, there was strength in numbers, what with quantity being a quality all of its own after all. Kane picked up the Talkie...

"Did you get the letter?"

[King DZA]

"Not onerous at all. In fact, you could even say I'm happy to repay those who have been of such help. Lately, I've been trying to think of just how to do that, And I'm confident that I have come up with an amazing offer for you. Although you can definitely refuse it, It would be very unwise to do so:

You may have noticed the empty rooms this restaurant has. I'm willing to turn one into a dormitory, so that you and your kin have a place to stay. And once this place gets off the ground, all meals for you and your brethren will be on the house. I'll even throw a special buffet in your honor, when I get the appropriate supplies. So long as you can all lend a hand with some little things every now and then, I will ensure that your kindness is more than compensated for."

[PyroDesu]

Noticing that someone had in fact picked up his talkie signal, Sgt. Rick tunes in before he falls asleep until morning.

"A letter? Yes. Did yours happen to be about some bigwig at Ujarak-Anaru needing to be taken care of too?

If so, stay on this frequency. We'll chat more in the morning."

Fall asleep in my apartment, which is much more comfortable than that warehouse, if a bit less useful.

[USEC_OFFICER]

Read his mind. Why is he saying no. Why aren't I allowed up there... and who is? The key is to look like them as much as possible and let the psi handle the rest

The man's thoughts seem to be focused mostly on his novel, and the scruffy hobo in front of him. And by hobo I mean Jessica. It has been a while since she had a bath, and all of those puncture wounds aren't very flattering.

Aleksander scratches his head for a couple seconds, and then extends out his hand for you to shake it.

"Deal. Frankly I'd thought that you would be more grubby than that."

Spoiler: Transportation (click to show/hide)

Ujarak Simpson and his colleges will arrive at Hokewaa airport at 8:51, on Flight 353 Hawaiian airlines. There they will be greeted by one Iancu Balan, who will drive them to the factory in the company car. Iancu lives alone at 75 Washington Street, in apartment 321. The car that Ujarak will be driven in is a Mercedes ZS-Class Turbo-Charged Diesel Engine, with no major modifications made to it. It currently rests, relatively unguarded, in the factory parking lot with the keys in Balan's possession. The exact route that the car will take is unknown, but the journey is estimated to take between half and hour to a full one. After the tour ends Ujarak Simpson will return to the airport using the same car.

Spoiler: Schedule of the Tour (click to show/hide)

9:30-10:00 - Light refreshments and entertainment in the lobby as the members of the factory wait for Ujarak to arrive.
10:05-10:35 - Tour moves to the meeting room. A series of short speeches are given by the boss of the factory, the manager, the head of the worker's union, Esteve Andrews and Ujarak himself.
10:40-11:50 - Tour officially begins as Ujarak examines the factory offices, loading docks and the on-site warehouse in that order. Length of time that will be spent in each building is unknown, but Ujarak will undoubtedly spend more time in the offices than the warehouse and loading docks.
12:00-1:00 - Buffet lunch. The catering will be provided by an off-site company, who will arrive at 11:00 to set up the buffet in the meeting room before Ujarak arrives. The name of the catering company is "Linda's Speedy Meal Time".
1:05-2:00 - Tour of the factory floor. Ujarak will hold in-depth conversations with the facotry manager, the chief mechanic, and several other important workers.
2:05-2:30 - Concluding remarks.
2:35 - Ujarak, Esteve and Aloysius return to the airport.

NOTE: The factory will not be operating on the day of the tour, due to safety concerns about noise.

Spoiler: Security (click to show/hide)

Security will be increased slightly during the tour, due to recent safety concerns. The "Protection and Security Company" will be providing the extra guards, while the guards employed by the company will be deployed in force.

The guards employed by the company will be equipped with security uniforms and armed with glorified clubs, tasers, pistols and shotguns. The total number of guards hired by the company at this present moment is twelve.

The PSC men will be better equipped, with protective padding and cheap helmets as armour. They will be armed with revolvers, SMGs, tactical shotguns and .34 specials. Caution is needed in a firefight against these guards, as they are better armed than most members of Project EVIL. The total number of PSC men to be present at the factory is unknown.

Spoiler: Factory Layout (click to show/hide)

The factory sits at the corner of 15^th and 23^rd streets. The parking lot exits onto 15^th street only. The factory itself is divided into four main sections. The loading dock is the smallest of the four sections, and is little more than a covered space so that workers can unload and load trucks in relative comfort. It has several rooms for storage equipment and various other tools. The loading bay looks out onto 15^th street only, and is set back far enough from the road so that trucks can enter and leave in peace.

The warehouse is the second part of the building, and is in the top, right-hand corner of the building. Thus it looks out onto the parking lot and the adjacent property, which is a condemned factory. Inside the warehouse are rows after rows of boxed food bags, plastic sheets and other raw materials. The warehouse is otherwise uninteresting.

The factory is the third and largest section of the building, and sits on the lower left-hand corner of the building, where 15^th and 23^rd meet. Inside are various conveyor belts and machines used in the production and packaging of the food bags. Travel along the floor of the factory is complicated, as various machines and equipment block one's path at every instance. Members who find themselves in the factory proper are encouraged to climb up to the catwalk along the top of the factory, for ease of travel and better sight lines. The factory is completely open, with only a few offices for the manager and important personnel sectioning off the space. These offices are easily reachable from the catwalk, and are situated to have the largest view of the entire factory floor.

The fourth section of the factory is the offices, which overlooks 23^rd street. The offices are divided into three floors. The ground floor contains a lobby, a couple bathrooms and various closets for the custodial staff. The second floor contains offices for minor personnel who track orders, shipments and factory production. All of the offices (and a little lunch room) can be assessed from a central hallway. The third floor contains a meeting room with windows that look over 23^rd street, and the offices for the boss of the factory.

Homing falcons have been sent to all members of Project EVIL in Hokewaa, should they have any further questions for the Spy Department. (ie you can ask questions about the mission).

[PyroDesu]

Do we know if the PSC might be hiring able men to help with security?

[USEC_OFFICER]

Do we know if the PSC might be hiring able men to help with security?

Probably, but the needed background checks take at least three days.

[PyroDesu]

What kind of background checks do they perform?

[USEC_OFFICER]

What kind of background checks do they perform?

Intensive ones? They'll probably check your name against the various government databases available to the public (criminal records, current information, legality of citizenship etc.), along with various private ones detailing your working history.
