OOC Chat III

[Zhym]

I dunno; Silvestri was pretty good at getting them to kill others last round, right? As a proof-of-concept, it was awfully effective. I'd figure it'd be easily within the realm of Silvestri's power to say, "That person next to you is trying to kill me / trying to kill you / sleeping with your mate / a commie mutant pinko traitor!"

Or maybe the game of Paranoia I played this week has affected my brain.

[shaidar]

You're probably right, I could have pushed things a bit more.

Kurot wonders at the power to make people think that their friends are actually their enemies. He makes a mental note to ensure that he stays on Silvestri's good side, then wonders if Silvestri's power works on cybernetic central processing units or only on meat brains. Best not to find out, he thinks.

You're probably safe from Empathy or Domination, but not from higher rolls of Magnetic Manipulation that can affect AI's.

[shaidar]

okey, that didn't go quite as planned I guess we'll just have to finish them off.

Can Silvestri use his healing powers without disturbing the empathy power?

[Norjax]

Can Silvestri use his healing powers without disturbing the empathy power?

Yes, but the two remaining Gamlocks await your commands.

[Zhym]

Maybe it would still work to make each of them think that the other is sleeping with its mate?

[Norjax]

ooc: I assume the man has gone out of range of his powers and he cannot detect him any more?

Silvestri is unable to sense the humanoid, indicating that it has gone beyond the 100ft radius range.

[shaidar]

he'd know if he'd been killed rather than gone out of range?

[Norjax]

he'd know if he'd been killed rather than gone out of range?

Yes. He did not die.

[shaidar]

cool, thanks.

[greyarea]

I'm hoping that Kurot could explain the layout of what he saw without me typing it all out. If not, let me know—the intent of "update the others on what the forward group found" was to describe fully what we see on the map.

And Denslow was a bit confused by what was relayed, as per usual

[Norjax]

When appropriate, I will increase my post frequency to reduce the game time while two groups are separated without major actions.

It is not my intent to leave players behind. PM me if this is a problem.

[Norjax]

Out of character: If he is able, Farmanus will climb with his weapon. Otherwise, he will ask MacMak to 'hold my spear'.

It takes both hands to climb using the groove pockets. Farmanus could strap the spear to his back, but it would take an action to unbind it before he was able to wield it in combat.

[rossik]

MAcMak can hold the spear , no problem

[Norjax]

"I think this is about as far as we should pursue," opines Kurot. "Let's see what's on the other side of the hall."

The room at the end of the west hall?

[Yrkoon]

Farmanus would rather climb with his weapon than without it.

I'm assuming that the roll of '5' precludes him successfully climbing. However, if he is able, he'd like to climb a ways up to see what he can see. If the distance is too great and he'll become too separated from the party, he'll climb back down.

If the Agility check fails, he'll just stick with Kurot in checking out the room to the west.

[Zhym]

"I think this is about as far as we should pursue," opines Kurot. "Let's see what's on the other side of the hall."

The room at the end of the west hall?

Yes.

I’m guessing from the banging that the morlock is sealing up the entrance above or otherwise setting up a defense. We probably shouldn’t split the party any further. If we pursue, it should probably be with the whole group if possible.

Maybe Kurot can zoom back and give another update to those on the sled.

[Urson]

Can the 'bangs' be heard from the turntable? Or are they too muffled by distance and tunnels?

[Norjax]

Can the 'bangs' be heard from the turntable? Or are they too muffled by distance and tunnels?

No one at the turntable or rail trolley can hear any sounds.

[rossik]

am i in the middle, to hear the bang and notify the others?

[Norjax]

am i in the middle, to hear the bang and notify the others?

MacMak heard the bangs from the tube that Farmanus ascended.
