Where we left off:

The group has just defeated the Nephandus, Jacob. They found among his things, some paperwork written in the old proto-Akashic language (which Ranmaru was able to translate), that contained orders directing him to secure three sites. The camp being one of them.

Kyle has effectively tended to the students that have been injured during the attack. They still need a hospital, but they're a lot more likely to survive the trip.

Isaac and Sharon have a captive: one of the fake college students who tried to lure you into a trap and acted like distractions so that Jacob could attack the camp without you.

Gavin had been heroically taking care of Alanna during the attack. Alanna now appears to be about three years old, and is talking to Amy.

So. What will you do?

After finishing with the students Kyle will check the camp radio & cell service & then join the others. Kupale keeping an eye on the surrounding Jungle. & then join the others.

There is no traditional cell service out here. However, the radio works fine, and the camp has an emergency sat phone that is also working.

Isaac knelt down by the fake student and looked him (ooc: her?) over.

"So..." he said, looking up at Sharon. "There are so many organs and bones and stuff in there that it's driving me nuts. But I think we can all take a souvenir. Anything you have you eye on?"

The captive is a woman, sadly, whose ID features the unlikely name of Sandra Sanderson. She glares petulantly up at Isaac. "You're really creepy."

Isaac beamed, "We are going to be great friends. So here's how this works: you tell us everything we want to know and we'll... I'm not going to say quick, but I promise the outcome will be more boring for me. Happy meal, but no toy. Definitely not a Transformer or a zeppelin. Cool?"

Sandra looks unimpressed. "I know what you are. You're one of those lab geeks who never got a date that wasn't a sexual predator until you were twenty. I want to talk to someone more attractive."

[OOC: Rolling Charisma + Intimidation. Isaac has no points in Intimidation, so 3 dice: 9, 7, 2. Two successes.

To resist, I rolled Sandra's willpower. Three successes.]

Isaac laughed, "Oh girlfriend, we are going to have such good times!" He opened his backpack, "Now did I remember to pack the dissection kit or do I have to wing it? It's ok if I wing it, right? I mean we didn't get a lot of advance notice or I would have put on my formal labcoat."

He raised his voice and called out, "Hey Bricks, DMV Martin, Hottie? You guys want to see the insides of this chick on the outside? There's enough of her for everyone to get a party favor! I got dibs on the pancreas and we need to save the eyeballs for Boy Adventurer, but there's still a whole lot to go around."

[OOC: He was trying to intimidate her...but he's also serious. So far as Isaac is concerned, Nephandi are fair game for everything and anything.]

Not sure if Kyle heard that. the injured are well away from the interrogation, however kupale's ears lay back. With a look between them he sighs & goes to them. "Have a care for the Sleepers she & hers injured.Get it done, but be clean quick & quiet. It's probably what this trash will enjoy the least. Once we have a place to go I'll call a med-evac." before returning to the injured he nods to his familiar. " Friend I know you want nothing to do with this but keep an eye on this & kill her if she pulls anything." With a shake of his head he goes to his work hoping that this doesn't do even worse harm.

The prisoner glowers at Kyle, turns her attention back to Isaac and scoffs. "Really? You're traveling with that guy? You are desperate. He looks like he has fleas."

When Amy's sure Alanna, no matter what her age now, is okay, she'll look at the prisoner situation.

"Do you have a way to question her after she's dead?"

Alanna appears fine. Just three years old. Her clothes look a bit uncomfortable now. She's very happy to see "Mommy" and doesn't have any interest in the prisoner. Instead, she seems to be making faces at Gavin.

Amy frowns over the clothes. Glances around the campsite for a shirt that's still small enough that it won't just slide over Alanna's shoulders. She can cinch it with a little sash until they get a chance to shop again.

Considering how they were just saved from a madman (the students still seem to be a bit shaky and unclear about what exactly they saw), the students are very quick to volunteer whatever spare clothing they can scrounge up. One of the tinier female students has a cute pink t-shirt that would work as a makeshift dress.

Amy politely thanks her and mocks a cute little pink dress for Alanna.

"They grow so fast."

Kyle ignores the comment as he goes back to treating injured. Kupale makes the canine equivalent of clearing & holding his nose in retort. Given his spirit nature she probably does reek to him. He all so gives Amya wolfish grin at her suggestion.

Isaac looked at Kyle, then back at Sandra. "He may have fleas, but they're my fleas. I raised them in a vat and trained them to bite on command. A little electroshock goes a long ways."

He thought things over for a moment before answering Amy. "I have a theory," Isaac said, eyes aglow.

"Hottie? Bricks? One of you want to babysit our littlest subject for a minute or two? The Ex and I should talk experimental design."

Post by Ranmaru Vizzini Tue Jul 18, 2017 7:11 pm

Ranmaru, who's been taking a closer look at the paperwork left behind, looks up at Isaac. "This can't be good." He puts the paperwork in his satchel and takes out his kotachi as he walks over to the prisoner.

He waves the kotachi around slowly in an intricate pattern. Ostensibly, as a show of intimidation, but he's actually focusing on a small matter of manipulation. "I probably don't want to know about your theory; do I?" He stands casually over Sandy. "It really would be in your best interest to tell us what we want to know. I don't feel like being here for hours on end listening to your screams or seeing your face twisted in some sort of silent terror because your vocal cords were cut off, having Isaac increased your ability to feel pain, and twisting your body into some misshapen form until you truly beg for the end of all things."

[OOC1: Sorry for being totally oblivious. I think I have an rss reader that will work both at home and while I'm at work.]
[OOC2: Ranmaru's using his kotachi and kata to focus on manipulating her emotions into cooperating with us using Mind 2 and Manipulation. I think that works? It's been awhile since I've done this. If that doesn't work, what he's doing is just being the flower boy martial artist waiving his toothpick and looking hot doing it.]

Okay, so what is the kata supposed to be doing in order to influence her emotions? For example, are the movements meant to lull her into a hypnotic state? Or ramp up her adrenaline?

[OOC: Noted.  As this is a coincidental effect, the difficulty is five.

Ranmaru rolled: 7, 2, 10.  Two successes.  Rolling countermagick: also 2 successes.  (10, 6, 2)]

Sandra looks up at Ranmaru, appreciatively.  "Now that's more like it.  Why don't you come over here?  I'll tell you anything you want to know."

Ranmaru is unsure if he pulled off what he was trying to do, but at least their captive seems to be a bit more cooperative.

"Let's start off with, what was Jacob after here?"

[OOC: I really can't remember what we wanted to know from her. Is the mental link still open with the party?]

"The dead body over there." Ranmaru points over to Jacob's dead body. "Also, aside from providing an underwhelming distraction, why did you come here?"
