Day 5 - 08:51 (My Fault This Time)
After grabbing a cleaver, you ask the hobos if they're capable of running the restaurant while you're away. Obviously they aren't going to work for free, but they assure you that they're able to manage the place while you're gone. Thus assured, you stroll over to the Industrial District to complete this mission you've been hearing so much about.

Health: 10/20
Armour: 0
Energy: 3/3
Innovation Points: 3/3
Money: $61
Majors: Survival 1001 (Can rest fully in wilderness without food or a bed. Can construct shelter in the wilderness with enough time and the proper tools. +3 to sneaking in wilderness. -3 to sneaking in cities. Moves through wilderness normally.)
Minors: 1001 Ways to Serve a Human (Can cook a wide variety of meals if given tools, materials and time. +1 to all rolls after eating suspicious meat. Lasts for 1 turn.)
Big and Scary (+5 to health. +2 to intimidate. +2 when making rolls that cause fear.)
Skills: Common Techniques of the Cooking Hobo (+1 to cooking)
Weapon Proficiencies: Melee (ACC: +15%, DMG: +2)
Effects:
GM Interrupter
Effect: +2 to interrupt the GM.
Duration: Until used.
Description: You have interrupted the GM's plans for the second-to-last time! Hopefully. It's not like I have complete and utter control over the world in all it's entirety.
Weapons:
Nailboard: DMG: 4 RoF: 0 ACC: 45% CAP: 0 (Equipped)
Special: Simplicity itself: DMG: 6 when attacking enemies with high IQs.
Description: A board. With a nail in it. Doesn't get simpler than that.
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.
Desciption: Favoured by thugs, cavemen and anybody who's ever whacked somebody else with a stick. Obviously bringing a club to a gunfight is going to get yourself killed.
Knife: DMG: 3 RoF: 0 ACC: 45% CAP: 0
Special: Silent Killer: Attacks are completely silent. Guards probably won't have overactive imaginations, so try to kill them with the first throw.
Backstab: DMG: 8 with a sneak attack.
Description: It's a knife. A nice knife, yes, but not the kind of knife that would warrant a long description. At best it'd probably have a really nice handle, or maybe a blade with no notches in it. 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.

Other: Owns the deed to the place.
Heat: None.
Armed with a knife, a tote-bag, several syringes full of questionable drugs, and bacon-fresh breath, you head over to Iancu Balan's apartment building,
to stab him repeatedly.
Getting into the apartment building is as simple as opening the front door. Getting into Iancu Balan's apartment is much, much harder. After several minutes, one of his neighbors investigates your futile poundings.
"Are you looking for Ian? He left early for work, but I can take a message."

Other: Home of 5 orphans (-2.5 units of food a day. 5% chance of escaping each turn.)

After coordinating your efforts with your new partner, you head over to the factory. Ducking into the condemned factory, you scout out the various security cameras and patrols. Soon you form a mental map of all security units, and planning your route is a breeze. Thus prepared, you vault over the fence to sneak into the warehouse.
A patrol of three PSC guards are attracted by the sound of your body landing on a pile of scrap metal, and the subsequent screams of pain. Maybe you should have looked before you leaped.

Explosives (ACC: +10%, DMG: +1)
Effects: None
Weapons:
UM-45: DMG: 2 RoF: 1-10 ACC: 45% CAP: 30 (9mm) (Equipped)
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.
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.
Taser Pistol: DMG: 0 RoF: 1 ACC: 50% CAP: 0 (Rechargable) x 2
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.
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.

Due to the whole 'not-being-evil' stick, John Evly decides to get a job at the airport, instead of accepting the mission. Poor, deluded John Evly. Seeing as John Evly can't fly planes, or has a licence to operate heavy machinery, or looks remotely presentable,
he doesn't get a job at the airport.The GM, being in a mischievous mood, forces the airport staff to hire John Evly as a janitor. He also temporarily switches to third person for no reason. Jessica's turn is probably after John Evly's though. Anyways as he washes out a tough stain in Arrivals D3, who would saunter up but Ujarak Simpson? Well, saunter up isn't the correct phrase. Hurry nearby is probably more accurate.

Jessica takes a nice refreshing rubble nap. Besides the men discovering that their comrade is now brain dead, nothing important happens. Two of their number takes up door-guarding duty, some more men arrive with food, weapons and ammo, and several songs are sung. Other than that nothing else happens at all. Obviously they must be waiting for something.

Well, Iancu Balan is the only driver, and he has already left for the airport, so really you can only take the place of one of the guards. But obviously you can't just walk up to a guard and ask to swap places with him.

Clearly I need to learn more about the sexy man that is Gerald Root. Comfortably clothed in your new security uniform, you give the (ex) guard twenty bucks to go enjoy himself in the local bars. Once you're finished with Ujarak Simpson he'll need the money.

With your bacony-fresh breath, suitcase SMG and pocket firebombs, you head to the factory gate to blend in with the crowd.
However your fine attire and nice briefcase attracts the attention of security, since all the workers are clothed in, well, working clothes. The security guards menacingly advance on you with batons raise, ready to tell you to use the front door.
...
Oh. They must think that you're one of the office workers here to see Simpson. That could be useful. Of course you can't make the distraction for your friend if you can't get into the warehouse or the factory, but sacrifices must be made sometimes. Preferably other people's sacrifices.

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.

(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...

As you undoubtedly head over to the factory to certainly accept the mission, you are suddenly struck by a prophetic vision. Images of giant animals killing left and right prance in front of your eyes. Columns of black smoke and white steam. Murder! Chaos! War! Mauve! EURFAP! EURFAP!
You are struck by the intensity and terror of the visions, before literally being struck by a 1.00 cal bullet to the head courtesy of Sniper Squad.

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.

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.
