05:32:08 Devastator: oh, got my booster apptment tomorrow.
05:58:52 ER: how powerful will
dev become once boosted?
05:59:49 syv: Extremely, but it won't be noticeable, as he already limits his power. He desires a challenge, after all.
06:01:37 Devastator: just have to put on another set of gloves.
06:33:11 MidJag has joined #einsteinianroulette
06:35:09 ER: cly we should play something~
06:35:11 MidJag: I'm only mostly drunk at that.
06:35:57 syv: I have no objection to playing games with Drunk
MJ
06:36:02 MidJag: I'm back at school, so I'm much less drunk then usual.
06:36:52 Devastator: well, there's Cells.
06:37:33 syv: I wish we could play Dark Sus T^T
06:38:31 syv: But yes, Cells seems appropriatw
06:38:49 MidJag: We could play like that game with the time splits
06:39:25 ER: as usual I'm more interested in impromtu roleplaying :v
06:39:37 syv: My brain says you must be talking about Time Splitters, but that's *old*
06:39:41 Devastator: I'm already running one side game!
06:41:57 syv: I happen to know he has a simple game he could practice running~
06:42:15 MidJag: Lemme get a beer and find the dice roller and then I'll be in the perfect state of mind.
06:42:45 syv: A min and I'll forward the PM
06:45:12 syv: Looks like I never sent it as a PM :v
06:45:19 syv: A min and I'll copy the text file
06:48:38 Devastator: well, dice time! ;-p
06:50:18 Devastator: 0 Melee, 2 Ranged, 2 Physique, 2 Dexterity.
06:51:05 Devastator: Haven't gotten there yet.
06:51:23 Devastator: 2 Subterfuge, 2 Persuasion, 1 Interrogation, 1 Composure.
06:52:45 ER: 1 melee 3 ranged 1 physique 1 dexterity. 3 subterfuge 3 persuasion 0 interrogation 0 composure. Gunrancher.
06:53:11 MidJag: I'm not sure what you mean? Are you farming guns?
06:53:41 MidJag:
Dev did you pick a magic?
06:53:47 MidJag: And
syv are you making a char?
06:53:58 syv: Wanted to see what they did, first.
06:54:25 syv: 3 melee, 0 Ranged, 1 Phys, 2 Dex. 0 Sub/Pers, 3 int/comp. Fleshwarper.
06:54:42 MidJag: Alrigth, uhh, Alright
ER, your power is your ability to summon guns and shoot perfectly accuraryly with them once per pip
06:55:11 syv: Honorable and no-nonsense cop who has too much of a literal streak.
06:55:44 MidJag:
Dev and
ER give me like a one sentance descripiton of your chars
06:56:08 Devastator: I'll take Augmentation.
06:56:21 ER: lady with pet guns. and no chill.
06:56:32 MidJag: Okay, uhh,
dev give me some idea what you by Augmentation
06:56:38 Devastator: The Tim Taylor skill.
06:56:47 MidJag: I'm not familiar with thart
06:56:51 syv: I 100% did send what the magic power options are, fyi
06:57:05 ER: to be clear the guns are living beings and have a limited ability to scurry around and such
06:57:22 MidJag: You guys are lucky I'm drunk and in a good mood
06:57:40 Devastator: fictional character with the catchphrase "More Power"
06:57:51 MidJag: Ah so
dev your power is just making something more powerful?
06:57:54 ER: WHAT IF WE TRIED MORE POWER?
06:58:02 Devastator: That sort of thing, yes.
06:58:17 MidJag: I can work with that as long as your cool with things occasioanlly epxloding
06:58:32 Devastator: That's basically it, yeah.
06:58:48 Devastator: anyway, description.. how normal is okay?
06:59:15 MidJag: Uhhh, any descprition that gives me some idea of how they react to things is okay
07:00:12 Devastator: eh, gimme the starry-eyed idealist magical girl then.
07:00:50 MidJag: So your playing me as a magical girl? Alright.
07:01:41 ER: meanwhile I'm a gruff and hardy farmer
07:02:06 syv: Gruff and hardy farmer *woman*
07:02:22 MidJag: They're pretty much the smae
07:02:59 MidJag: Ahem, *puts on GM voice*
07:05:08 MidJag: YOU SORRY LOT HAVE BEEN HIRED TO FIGURE OUT WHY FARMER MCOO'S FARM HANDS KEEP DISAPPEARING, EVERY NEW MOON HE LOSES 4 FARM HANDS AND REGARLDESS OF THE HUMAN LIVES LOST THEY'RE EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE. Farmer Mcool is the man you will first meet with and is the man talking to you currently
07:06:35 MidJag: Farmer mcool: "Look, I don't care how much you charge, something needs to be done, every damn harvest I'm working at half capacity"
07:06:37 ER: "Hey fuckin... guy, you. What do I go?"
07:07:42 syv: Interrogate him on whether anyone has seen disapearances, or if they have any common traits. Happening at a specific time, in a specific area, to people with certain jobs, etc.
07:08:29 Devastator: I'm gonna go look at the plants/animals.
07:09:50 MidJag: "Look they're all hired hands, so they might just decide the new moon is the time for them to leave, but I typically haven't even paid em yet and they just dissapear, every now and then I'll ask the other ones about it and they just don't talk to me."
07:11:03 syv: Ask to be directed towards one of the hands who's been around longest, and has a good rapport with the others. Are they around now, or would I have to go find them elsewhere? Go see them.
07:14:20 MidJag has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
07:15:15 MidJag has joined #einsteinianroulette
07:15:26 MidJag: Did any of that go through>?
07:15:56 Devastator: well, we got "they just don't talk to me."
07:16:16 MidJag: God fucking damnit, I sent a whole paragraph after that
07:17:21 MidJag:
Dev: you look into the corn stalks surrodning the farmhouse, they look delicious but not quite ready for harvest, your not even sure why farm hands would be working nights right now. You seem prettty certain that no matter what this guy is breaking some labor laws
07:17:31 ER: Pull a tracking nose gun from my hat and set about lookin' fer antyhin, ya know, *suspicious*.
07:17:52 MidJag: Alright
ER, that is one of your pips.
07:20:07 MidJag:
Syv: the oldest hand is a wizened man named Earl, he seems to be friendlly, if incredibly drunk.
07:21:24 syv: Share a drink with Earl, and ask about the disapearances. Anyone he knew disappear? Under what circumstances? Anything notable about it?
07:21:47 MidJag:
ER,[crit fail] you pull out your nose gun and after a brief scuffle with it accidently pull it's trigger, sending tracking bits flyign down into the soil, well, I guess if that corn moves you'll knwo it
07:21:53 Devastator: I'll go pluck a cob and examine it.
07:25:04 MidJag:
Syv: Earl insists that the farm hands were pulled into the sky by a huge moth, dammndest thing he'd ever seen, and he'd seen a man make liqour with nothing but saliva and determintaiton.
Dev: you pull the corn open and look at it, when you look at it cloeselly it almost looks like there is a fine dusting of some kind of powder on the sky facing ear of corn.
07:26:00 MidJag: Uhh, there isn't a moth there currently
ER/
07:26:47 Devastator: "Hey, I think I found something here."
07:26:57 Devastator: Collect a bunch of it, like a cupful.
07:27:07 Devastator: or a bunch if I can't get that much.
07:27:19 syv: Thank Earl for his time, then go link up with
Dev. Share the explanation of the moth with him.
07:27:41 MidJag: There isn't a cupful on that ear
dev, are you going to a couple different Ears to collect that much?
07:28:02 MidJag: Also question I should have asked before, do any of you have any kind of weapons?
07:28:05 syv: Look around at the farm's surroundings. More farmland? What's the area's environment? Flat, mountainous, forested, hilly?
07:28:31 syv: My char has a Grizzly 1911. 50 cal upchamber.
07:28:46 Devastator: Yeah, going to collect a bunch from different stalks.
07:29:02 Devastator: as for weapons, the traditional big magic wand.
07:29:13 Devastator: ranged weapon kinda thing.
07:29:44 MidJag:
syv: The farmland is surronded by mountains it's located in a fertile valley, fuck it's actually picrturese you'd retire here if you had the kind of scratch.
07:30:58 MidJag:
Dev, it take you about twelve stalks to gather a cup full, looking at in aggregate it's all some kind of silvery dust, you feel pretty high from handling all of it at once.
07:31:05 ER: I have a triple barreled machinegun named nelly
07:31:41 syv: ^It's beltfed with a belt of three-chamber revolver cylinders. :3
07:31:45 MidJag: And
Dev there aren't really magic wands in this setting, at least at your level, could you pick a differnt weapon?
07:32:20 Devastator: Can I take a pre-augmented boomarang?
07:33:44 MidJag: So what are people doing now that the guns have been figured out?
07:33:50 Devastator: I'm feeling kinda high?
07:33:58 syv: I'll spend a fleshwarp pip on improving my nose to bloodhound levels, and take a good smell of
Dev's powder.
07:34:22 syv: Then I'll try and climb something tall, and see if I can catch that scent on the wind.
07:35:15 MidJag:
Dev is kinda stumbling around babbling about the moon godeess who will come to help the harvest.
Syv: You take a deep breath, if your not mistaken the scent goes straight up. As you recall the new moon is tonight.
07:36:00 syv: Fantastic. Go grab
ER and drag her up something tall, and wait for nightfall together.
07:36:07 ER: Make a campfire and wait for the moon
07:37:50 MidJag:
Er you make a campfire at the base of the grain silo and hang out with
syv at the silo.
07:38:02 MidJag:
Dev where are you? Are you waiitng for the moon?
07:38:07 Devastator: Go do cartwheels and such to burn off this energy.
07:39:22 MidJag:
Dev you do so many cartwheels you end up pukeing, but you do end up feeeling much less high at this point, your starting to realize that a moon goddess wouldn't have any economic reason to help you with the harvest without some kind of sacrafice. You are no longer high
07:40:23 syv: Headpat
ER while continuing to wait, making use of quantum instability to be both close for headpats while also on top of the silo.
07:40:27 MidJag: Since you are now just kinda cartwheeling next your own vomit are you going to join the rest of the gang in the silo?
07:41:44 MidJag:
Syv you headpat
ER many times while being schrodingers grizzled cop,
ER, your an excellent farmer and give a long disseration to farmer mcool about how he could improve his crop of guns,
dev you hang out at the silo as night fall comes and the new moon takes cerntral stage in a night sky.
07:42:47 Devastator: "Wait.. I can see it?"
07:43:04 MidJag: The blank spot where the moon should be is suddenlly replaced by a huge silvery disk, it's a gigantic moth like creature, coming from the direciton of where the moon should be.
07:44:17 MidJag: I need actions from all three of you.
07:46:13 ER: I pull a canister of bug poison and jam it into nelly's cyllender to give her poison damage.
07:46:54 MidJag: Okay, you've used one more pip, but nelly now has poisino damage for the remainder of the session.
07:47:29 MidJag:
Devastator? Doing anything before the moth descenedS?
07:47:51 Devastator: Thinking. Any good machinery around?
07:48:16 MidJag: Uhh, theres a tractor near the silo? And a combine harvester at the extreme end of the field
07:48:36 MidJag: What kinda machinery are you looking for?
07:48:52 Devastator: Something that's suitable for a weapon.
07:49:01 Devastator: but the harvester is probably good only if the creature is downed.
07:49:39 MidJag: Uhh, there's the silo itself which has a crane on it?
07:50:40 Devastator: yeah, I'll have to wait until it gets closer. Tim Taylor probably isn't good for self-buffing.
07:50:50 Devastator: so just get ready to throw as the creature enters range.
07:53:49 MidJag: The moth contiunes to descened to the earth until you can finnally make it out, this is no moth at all, this is some kind of horrible alien, in it's wings are the horrible suffocated corpses of dozens of farm workers which as the wings unfurl drop to the ground only to be suddenly jerked up right by silvery tendrils from the moth. the moth turns to face the trio of you and feeel a sudden screech inside of your heads
07:53:49 MidJag: as it yells ENEMIES: PROTECT YOUR MASTER as the reanimated corpses strat to spring towards the silo.
07:54:45 Devastator: I'll work on the minions by augmenting the combine harvester. Set it spinning in a circle.
07:58:22 syv: Grow wings, fly down to land on top of the moth
07:58:35 syv: *bone-bladed wings, keep them
07:58:36 MidJag: Alright
ER: Your tripple machine gun roars as you send a wall of lead towards the eldertich abonation. the shot's hit true and it writhes and twitches in the parth of the bullets, while it doesn't go down you see the wounds it leave begin to smoke with a greenish hue, from your bug poision maybe?
07:58:49 MidJag:
Dev I need a number between 1 and 10
08:02:00 MidJag: Cool.
Dev your eyes glow read and your throat burns as you Scream. NOW THATS WHAT I CALL FIXING IT, as you summon the power of the harvester towards the zombies. The harvest roars to life, and rams towards the zombies, it plows through 10 of them before it suddenyl explodes, taking out about 3/4's of the hoard, the remaining quarter stops and starts jumping towards syv.
Syv as he lands on their master
08:02:17 MidJag:
Syv you land on the moth with your wings
08:03:44 syv: >Embed the bone-bladed wings into the moth's back, mostly to anchor myself into it, then press the 50-cal 1911 into it and unload the entire mag. Using the pistol as a melee weapon, because this is point-blank. 3 melee.
08:04:02 MidJag: The moth screams and shoots out a tendril from it's wing at
syv
08:04:16 MidJag: Sorry, wasn't quite finished
08:04:42 MidJag: Apologies, I'm a slow typist
08:04:45 syv: Do the same, but try to catch the tendril with one of the wings while grappling.
08:05:25 ER: Looks like full auto won't quite do with this one, activate fuller auto and keep blasting.
08:05:45 ER: (this is done by feeling nelly a tomato)
08:06:37 Devastator: If the mooks are going towards the winged fleshhorror, try to finish the moth off with a boomerang throw.
08:07:05 MidJag: Are you going to augment the boomrang in anyway?
08:08:42 MidJag: you speciifed unaugmented when you told me the weapon, so I just wanted to make sure
08:09:10 syv: Quite the opposite, actually
08:09:13 syv: "(
Devastator) Can I take a pre-augmented boomarang?"
08:09:47 MidJag: ....Ah, I read that as a boomrang before it was augmented. That does make more sense.
08:09:59 MidJag: To be fair to me, I'm pretty drunk
08:10:17 ER: not drunk enough to let me shoot the boss before it show up tho
08:10:57 MidJag: I'm pretty drunk but at least I know time.
08:18:02 MidJag: Syv: You slam a bone blade into the moth, severing a tendril, but others shoot out and you are forced to resort to sheltering behind the blades to avoid them taking over your precious brain meats.
Dev: You pump even more magic into the boomgerang and chuck it at the moth morphing the boomerang into a mineuature buzzsaw while you do miss the moth, the boomergang plows through the horder coming towards
Syv taking them
08:18:02 MidJag: out as he engages in acrobatics to avoid the seeking tendrils.
ER: Meanwhile you seeing that full auto doesn't work on these kind of things slam a a tomatoe into a nessy and activate fuller auto, as you watch Nessy eats thee tomatoe deplyoing all three barrels at the same time and then three more barrels on each of the seconadary barrels, you cackle as you pull the trigger and send an insanse amount of lead into the
08:18:02 MidJag: moth, it is turn to shreds by the sheer amount of lead and bug poinson you've laced into the buellts sending
syv crashing to the ground with the mutiliated corpse of the moth. He manages to aovid signifacn tinjury as he tucks and rolls on topp of the corpse, as the moth dies the last remainign zombie tiwtches and falls to the ground the almost translucent tendril falling limp from the corpses head.
08:18:52 MidJag: Farmer Mccool comes out to hear the 9 machine guns firing at once and remarks, well damn, that's the biggest moth I've ever seen, does that mean you guys charge extra for these kinds of extermination jobs?
08:19:09 MidJag: ((Good job a winner is you))
08:20:35 syv catches his breath, and sits down.
08:20:48 MidJag: As though he's a man parting with his last kidney you see farmer mcool pull out o a sack from his pocket and toss it to
ER. Well it's all there, you can count it if oyu'd like
08:21:18 Devastator: Strike a pose and give the standard love and justice speech.
08:22:26 MidJag:
Dev you strike a trimphant pose, somewhat undercut by the sheer amount of gore that has coated you, the moth corpse, and the harvester and every single crop in the field. But you definetly highltight how love and justice are the most important values.
08:22:40 ER: "Another successful harvest!"
08:25:04 Devastator: Do take the cup of Moon Dust, too.
08:25:17 MidJag: "Yup, you all are free to take whatever corn you want, there isn't too much market for blood corn. At least ever since the vampire mayans were killed"
08:25:49 ER: "It's not blood corn dummy, it's corn with blood on it."
08:27:29 syv: >As a cop, try to recall whether the farmer has been breaking labour laws.
08:27:36 syv: If he has been, confront him about this.
08:28:09 MidJag: Farmer Mcool has 100% been breaking labor laws, you're not even sure he's allowed to force his workers to work in zero visibility new moons.
08:28:11 syv: Also, refuse my share of the payment, due to conflict of interest
08:29:34 MidJag:
ER you pocket syv's share as
syv yells at mcool for breaking so many different labor and immigraiton laws.
08:29:55 MidJag: I gotta say this evil forest book I got gives me good idea for enemies
08:30:21 MidJag: It's where I got the moon moth thing
08:32:18 Devastator: I got the cup of moth dust already.
08:32:36 Devastator: (I think
PW had a moon moth in CULT.)
08:33:14 MidJag: Well I'm gonna call it hear.
08:33:31 MidJag: Thanks for helping me get more comfortable with the system guys
08:33:49 Devastator: keep the chars for next time?
08:37:19 syv: Damn, it doesn't align either way in my app.
08:40:53 syv:
Dev said "ty" twice, and I tried to say the same thing, but removing the leading chars of his name so it'd line up.
08:42:07 Devastator: My client has names right-justified left of the messages, and messages left-justified to the right of the names.
08:42:18 Devastator: so there's a line down my screen dividing the two.
08:42:22 Devastator: Timestamps are to the left of the names.
08:42:31 Devastator: seperated by white space.
08:56:14 MidJag: I shoudl probably go to bed.
08:57:59 Devastator: You know, there are boomerangs that are basically kind of clubs.
08:58:37 syv: I think the wording of TM is "vaugely resembles".
08:59:19 syv: You could argue a boomerang vaugely resembles a club, but it'd be expensive.
09:00:59 Devastator: that looks more like a TM 3 thing.
09:31:02 Devastator: also I am amused at
MJ including drugs in his game.
09:32:37 Devastator: wonder what getting high on moon moth dust would have been..
09:32:46 Devastator: that is an interesting system.
09:36:45 Devastator: it's pretty compact for character creation.
09:38:12 Devastator: picking one power is also interesting.
09:38:21 syv: It's literally just PS with point distribution and different stats, if that wasn't obvious.
09:40:07 Devastator: well PS is also an interesting system.
11:17:44 syv: Well scrolling down from there is depressing
11:27:10 Devastator: yes, don't do that.
