I'm a Lunatic, not a Prissy Poetic Pansy. At least I can walk down the street without being attracted to flashy lights and pretty pictures. How does any Toreador survive being in a major city without being mugged, or hit by a car, or pretty much anything dangerous that can happen to someone who stands in one spot for long periods of time.
In fact, I expect a Toreador to be called crazy more than a Malk, as long as that Malk isn't the PC Malk from Bloodlines.

Danny wouldn't mind grabbing a bite to eat but I think his particular issues would require him to head back to his home turf (on the other side of town) and see if any of the potential meals he's been tracking are available right now. He'll hold off until he has a bit more downtime and either wait patiently or assist someone else if they need it.

That's why you load up the gear in the back, through the service door.

I don't have any points in Drive but if no one else volunteers to go I'll spend some XP on it.
Edit: Or is there a rule against that? I can see how it could be abused.
I have 2 pts in drive but I assume I'll keep driving my van. I just assumed we would all go there in my van and split up the gear. Then we could figure out who goes in what vehicle.
Not sure how we decide what spot to hit next, none of the streetwise rolls gave a clue on that.
@cj iwakura one thing I wasn't clear about, assuming it is triads, does the prince want us to take out all the triads hitting the city minus one hostage, or just clean out one location the triads are hitting and take a hostage?
"Find the source of this madness. If it is those savage foreigners, feed them all to their own fires, save but one. I want that one alive. I care not if it is a leader or a street thug. Bring that one to me, and me alone. If it is... something else, then and only then are you to gauge what it it capable of, and return with news. Do not engage it. This is a vague directive, yes, but you are all clearly more than capable enough of acting with minimal guidance. It is such a capacity that makes you so very useful, unlike so many others.

After rereading this post it sounds like all the Triads save one, if it's the Triads.
Maybe what we should be doing is getting our hands on a police scanner and trying to find out where the most recent action is.

You can, but it would not take effect until a future scene.

Not all. Any instance of their involvement will do. She believes they're either together, or that will send a clear enough message to the rest.
In the interest of keeping things straight in my head here's the equipment list I have so far. I'm donating my spare stuff as well since we're still a little light on equipment. Let me know if you disagree or I'm wrong on anything:
Going Bulldog's Van (team Mayhem) -
Bulldog & Liz & Danny & Deke
SUV w police scanner (team Reaper) -
Alex & Max
Black clothes & radio (6) - everyone
Kevlar vest (few?) - Bulldog & Liz & Alex & Deke
Handcuffs (2)- Bulldog & Liz
Bulldog's knives (2) - 1(L) - Bulldog & Danny
Bulldog's Hvy Pistol - 3 - Bulldog
Bulldog's Axe - 3(L) - Bulldog
Scoped Rifle - 4(9 again) - Alex
Liz's bat - 2(B) - Liz
Silenced Beretta - 2 - Liz
Switchblade - 0(L) - Liz
.44 remington - 3(9 again) - Alex
Bulldog's Lt Pistol - 2 - Max
submachine gun - 3 - Deke
telephoto camera and directional microphone - Max
I made a short list of what I think are everyones skills adjacent to this scenario. I think We're on the right track, only Alex and Bulldog have any gun skills. Danny and Liz are both handy with blades and stealthy. Deke and Max have few combat skills, but Max looks to have an edge in thy spying department and Deke has celerity and dodge, so I think my vote is for Max to take the cameras and Deke to join us below.

I don't feel like Danny has much to contribute during the ride over, so he'll just be taking in what everyone is saying and trying to 'keep his head on straight' for now.

Rude!

Didn't all the Toreadors get trapped by the pretty artifacts in Chai's shop and Bulldog had to pick you up and drag you guys out?
Yeah, you would be standing around like a tourist in New York, right up to the moment the sun caught you.

Either would be fine. Streetwise would be more useful.
That's not very nice. I thought he was doing pretty well.
Unlife?

I'm also guessing we would have discussed a plan of who would get it and where everyone would meet the new van.
So who would and where do they pick everyone else up at?

We should get someone to google fu the location for info and map layout. Not sure whose best at that.

I never have felt so alone.
With your drive, there's nothing you can't handle. It also won't take much to determine the club of note in the area is the Marquee.
PSN: Boozer_777
You can easily connect those dots, yes.
PSN: Boozer_777
Did I learn anything from the layout?
Also, I am not quite sure what I would roll for this. Is the ability roll separate, or is it still a combine the stats thing?
