    Added the roll, 21, to my previous post.

    So, you can't edit a post that already has a roll in and get Geth to roll again, but he will roll a first time if you go and add one in (or have to fix syntax).

    Just for clarity Kit is asking if they do off/hidden menu coffee drinks.

    Hey, I want to see how you plan on getting hired :p

  • Havelock3.0Havelock3.0 What are you? Some kind of half-assed astronaut?Registered User regular
    My initial plan was to have her walk in and like subtly quick hack the place so the espresso printers put cartoon cat logos on the drinks with foam, and have the displays backgrounds switch from BB to Kittens With Mittens but uh

    Like Icarus before her she flew too close to the sun

    Do I need creds or should I be swapping out whatever my Heavy melee is for the Very Heavy Melee Guitar Shell

    @cj iwakura I’d like to make two checks for Kit based on the fixer’s info, I think these would be rolling in her head after the run down. First whether the pay matches the sniff test (is it equal to the task at hand being asked or is it sus) and Second what kind of oppo in Pacifica might be game enough to fuck around with a ‘saka shipment.

    Justin is likewise skeptical.
    1000 creds seems a lot?
    Maybe if the corpo wants a miltech, then something's got to be going down

    A Business or Bureaucracy would be for the first, a Streetwise for the second.

    Justin is happy to do that Streetwise check if Kit prefers.

    So that's 19 streetwise for any potential oppo file.

  • cj iwakuracj iwakura The Rhythm Regent Bears The Name FreedomRegistered User regular
    It's just begging for trouble. Nomads, Voodoo Boys, Dogtown, a better question would be who wouldn't try to mess with the shipment.

    Well, at least we know to be prepared

    Yeah Havelock had a notion, but what I know isn’t what Kit knows.

    I have an idea for after the meet up with fixer. If we talk about the oppo threat that is. Basically Kit would be tapping a contact (partner) to get them to put an ear out and see if there’s any chatter about hitting the shipment and if so when and where. She was going to transfer the upfront 1000 eddies to her contact to use in that regard since she splits things with them 50/50.

    So, I guess the question is, do we push for more pay, or a better split (more upfront, less after)?

    I guess we also need to get there somehow.

    Pushing for more upfront pay might be the way to go.

    Edit: but keep the 2k after. Call the extra upfront eddies hazard pay

    (also, what are Contacts? The premade I modified came with some, but they're just empty as far as I can tell. Are we able to just upload these on the fly, or...)

    Justin would also like to know what his Agent is saying the current style of clothing is, as he tries to figure how much that would set him back.

    Oh I sorta kinda barely fleshed out the relationship section for Kit. They tie in more or less to her background (partner, mentor, etc).

    If you plan on making use of them, you could flesh them out to give your character more personality, but it's your call, otherwise I'll wing it.

    Dress to kill in the corporate district, but with the Asian District so close, a lot of locals get by on Asian Pop or just don't care what anyone thinks.

    How much is a reliable but not great car? I can fix it up later, as long as it runs.

    A good 5-10K, if you're lucky. You might find something less than reliable for around 2, and absolute junk for less.

    I think we try to find a Maimai and Mad Max the hell out of it, at least as much as time allows.

    Also I figure even a Kabuki girl would have heard something of Pacifica despite never having set foot there.

    Also also just fyi I have not played Phantom Liberty, so in that regard I know as much about the post 2077 Pacifica as Kit knows, which is to say absolutely nothing at all.

    PL's new setting is basically Dogtown: all the chaos of Pacifica confined to one cordoned-off area and under military """rule""".

    Should we combine our seed money for a car I can make sure is in top shape, then?

    That’s a good plan.

    Also the fixer is now Chuck to Kit, forever.

    If I want to tap my partner to do some snooping for any chatter on the convoy how would that work, outside of roleplaying? I don’t mind any related rolls being GM side.

    I think so.
    I'm sitting here, trying to figure out how much of a cop-out writing 'And then Lights Out starts performing' would be.
    I haven't trained my IRL Composition skill.

    I guess we might be in need of a fourth player.
    Maybe we should just roll a fourth character and cycle their player (so someone plays two)?

    That’s a good idea. I did roll up a character from Kit’s background who’s a Solo (Shift), just in case Kit bought it.

    We could hire a merc through the Fixer, but probably have to give some of that seed money back to facilitate it, though. I’m not sure Kit’s the one to do the ask. I feel like he’d be happy if he never saw Kit again tbh :p
