Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:45:00 PM)
I'm also an elementalist
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 10:45:04 PM)
Marcus gets home about 11:15/11:30 ET. But he can just join us if we do this now. And you! *points at Connor* No punching or I'll sic my pigeon on you.
Alexander Vicars (Nov 30, 2010 10:45:19 PM)
I'm content just controlling the earth at the moment
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:45:25 PM)
*punches Saffron* i want to see said pigeon
Alexander Vicars (Nov 30, 2010 10:45:41 PM)
Anyway, I should decide what sort of mage I want to create. Got it narrowed down to two possibilities at least
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:45:48 PM)
Chorister!
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 10:45:49 PM)
*sighs, puts an illusion into connors brain to make him think he's in a magic proof box* now behave and i'll let you out!
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:46:01 PM)
*Mind 2*
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:46:08 PM)
Wanna try that one again?
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 10:46:31 PM)
well aren't you just a clever goose
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:46:40 PM)
^_^
Alexander Vicars (Nov 30, 2010 10:46:58 PM)
I'm debating between either an Alexandrian Society Chorister, or a Quaesitori
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 10:47:07 PM)
Either or.
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:47:41 PM)
ooo Quaesitor's are fun
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:48:06 PM)
*pets the decepticrane*
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 10:48:12 PM)
and this just shows how much of a newb i am for mage stuf... i have no clue what you people are talking about
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:48:27 PM)
It's ok John...we were all there once.
Alexander Vicars (Nov 30, 2010 10:49:39 PM)
My last mage (on a different chat) was a Seshati, so don't know if I want to do another Heremetic again or branch out a bit differently
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:50:00 PM)
Branch out. The chat can barely contain my awesomness :D
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:50:50 PM)
DC? Can i get a pm?
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 10:50:56 PM)
say no
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 10:50:58 PM)
SAY NO!
Alexander Vicars (Nov 30, 2010 10:50:59 PM)
Remind me to smite you at some point in the future, just on principle
Samuel Andrews (Nov 30, 2010 10:51:02 PM)
i think dc is afk
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 10:51:38 PM)
Ok. So are we doing a scene or not?
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:51:39 PM)
Aww Alex...remember, you want to smite me sometime in the future...just on principle
Alexander Vicars (Nov 30, 2010 10:52:11 PM)
Can I join too? =D
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:52:16 PM)
Sure!

(This user has left DigiChat) (IP = 71.246.154.228)
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 10:52:22 PM)
only if i can be one of your vessels
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:52:37 PM)
We have this lovely cell you can cohabitate with the other demons we've captured for study
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 10:52:42 PM)
Saffron. you're the one who wanted a scene.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 10:53:19 PM)
Yep, I'm here. If these guys want to play I'm ready. I don't think me and Jon can do this just the two of us, but I'm willing to try.
Alexander Vicars (Nov 30, 2010 10:53:31 PM)
(This user has moved to OOC Room) (IP = 67.32.187.228)
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 10:53:42 PM)
i'm willing to try!
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 10:54:05 PM)
Ok. Saffron, please post what you want to do in this scene to the main room. Guys I need about five minutets to be afk
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:54:16 PM)
NIEN!
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:54:21 PM)
You aren't allowed to go away
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 10:54:28 PM)
well I don't want to pee on my couch. so screw you.
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:54:36 PM)
Get a bed pan?
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 10:54:39 PM)
Okay, here's the gist...
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 10:55:23 PM)
story time! *settles in*
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:55:29 PM)
*gets the popcorn*
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 10:56:45 PM)
Some time ago, there was an attempted sabotage on a museum dedicated to Katrina. During the event, some magi came across the site and one was hit by a van as it fled the building. A man was badly beaten, Caleb Zanelli, who is one of the museum's benefactors and creator. The sabotage was undone in the scene, Caleb ended up in the hospital. Saffron did some research and found out the van is owned by a thug, low end stuff. Mostly a goon for hire more or less...
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 10:58:54 PM)
well, she used Correspondence to find the van. Unfortunately, it, and the driver-thug, are underwater. She found them beyond the levee being built by the Army Corp of Engineers. This in itself is all kinds of warning bells because it reeks of techie possibilities. She tried to recover anything in the van that wasn't yet destroyed but the apportation failed. So that stuff is lost. The plan is to use Saffron's boat to hook the van, then seal it with Forces, Apport some air inside it to make it boyant enough to tow, and tow it somewhere we can pull it out of the water...
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 10:59:21 PM)
The objective is to find out who hired the thug, and hopefully why they were trying to sabotage the museum, etc.
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 10:59:44 PM)
Holy god...there's enough vulgar magick in this plan to melt the city
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 10:59:50 PM)
oh yeah
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 11:00:15 PM)
Did ya ever think of just gettin some scuba gear and going for a swim?
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:01:11 PM)
You have a better plan? The body is currently being picked over by crabs. Saffron can't go swimming, she can barely walk. If we're going to learn much we need a number of us with different arcana looking it over, and not in murky water and fighting a current.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:01:26 PM)
(marcus will be on in 15 minutes)
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:01:48 PM)
take a few empty canvas bags, fill them with air from a spare scuba tank and that'll make them float, get enough of them and they'll be able to lift the van
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:02:40 PM)
that being said, jon is not capable of swimming, he's a gimp
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 11:03:00 PM)
Connor is capable of swiming, but doesn't know either of you.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:03:09 PM)
Will canvas by itself actually hold air? also keep in mind part of the plan is not opening the van and letting stuff we want to examine just float away in the process.
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:03:52 PM)
pretty sure it can if it's dense enough, that's usually how they do underwater salvage afterall... not sure of what kind of bag they use, but yes, it's possible
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:03:53 PM)
Marcus can swim, but again, I think we're better off all looking at it, with everything still inside as much as possible.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:04:21 PM)
The only vulgar thing in the plan is apporting some air, I'm not sure why you think its so vulgar.
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:04:25 PM)
the van will rise straight up, nothing will be leaving the van except water
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:04:42 PM)
how do you get the canvas into the van without opening it?
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:05:48 PM)
you... don't? tie them together with a length of high density rope, run it along the front and rear axle of the van, two or three ropes should do it, put equal number of bags on either side to keep it level and up she goes
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:07:03 PM)
either way, we only need enough air to get it off the bottom. we don't need it on the surface. I can tow it with the boat to where we can pull it out of the water with a large enough car.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:07:21 PM)
Which is the other problem, since I don't have a car suitable to the task.
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 11:07:22 PM)
Alright guys, I'm going to head out
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:07:55 PM)
okay
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:07:58 PM)
*sigh* and how do you expect to do that without drawing the attention of every supernatural sensing creature in the new orleans area?
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:08:12 PM)
or, more worrisome, just the techies and hunters?
Connor Jameson (Nov 30, 2010 11:09:05 PM)
(This user has left DigiChat) (IP = 98.183.225.254)
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:10:21 PM)
Well, what's Plan B, because anything short of using magic requires someone to swim. I thought we'd have Craig for this but my lateness messed that up.
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:10:52 PM)
then maybe we should wait and schedule it so we have everyone on hand
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:11:04 PM)
I can go Friday night
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:11:14 PM)
because for anything short of pointing and staring i'm gonna be pretty much useless here, well, other than driving a tow truck anyway
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:11:44 PM)
Marcus will be here in a few minutes. *shrug* I thought it was a good plan.
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:12:24 PM)
in other circumstances it would be, but not when there's a very likely chance of having techies less than a mile away
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:12:25 PM)
It's an interesting plan.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:12:49 PM)
I'm honestly not even sure where the levee is to be honest :)
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:13:09 PM)
My diction is going to hell.
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:14:06 PM)
(This user has entered Snowcrane's office: mages welcome) (IP = 74.129.33.240)
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:15:04 PM)
We may have to resort to Friday but I'm not sure how many people we can get involved then either. Marcus... hey
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:15:10 PM)
hey Marcus
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:15:16 PM)
Ok. this is my schedule the rest of the week.
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:15:20 PM)
hello
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:15:29 PM)
We're at an impasse. No one likes my plan. Can you swim?
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:15:33 PM)
Tomorrow night I am off, had a OoH scene planned but we have to reschedule because of conflicts.
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:17:13 PM)
Marcus has 2 dots in athletics so he can swim
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:17:46 PM)
Okay, so do we want to try this just the three of us or resched and see if we can get more help for Friday?
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:18:04 PM)
rescheduling seems the best option at this point
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:18:45 PM)
Friday, I can do. Saturday I can do.
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:18:46 PM)
i understand....
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:18:51 PM)
saturday i cant have larp
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:19:03 PM)
Sunday I work 11-8. Monday, off. Tuesday, close. Wednesday, thursday, off. Friday and saturday, 11-8
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:19:44 PM)
Friday, 11am to 8pm? or pm to am?
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:19:50 PM)
11pm-8am
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:19:57 PM)
PST...
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:20:00 PM)
yep.
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:20:05 PM)
I live and work in the Seattle Metro Area
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:20:19 PM)
so what time is it there now deceticrane?
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:20:25 PM)
820pm
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:20:41 PM)
Hmmm. that's 2am ET, midnight for me. Its up to you Marcus can you do 2am on Friday night?
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:20:49 PM)
err, wait.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:20:51 PM)
I misread.
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:20:58 PM)
she goes in at 2 am
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:21:00 PM)
it should be 1120 for you, saffron
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:21:05 PM)
see, I'm tired nand silly.
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:21:10 PM)
if 11 ish to 130 ish is good gor snowcrane
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:21:27 PM)
I work at 2pm your time, get off at 11pm, should be home by 1130 your time
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:21:32 PM)
Okay how about Friday, 11pm ET so 8pm her time?
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:21:43 PM)
next friday, or friday in 3 days?
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:21:54 PM)
Friday in 3 days, I thought.
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:22:03 PM)
Friday in 3 days I work 5am-2pm
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:22:09 PM)
so 8am-5pm pst
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:22:13 PM)
I ask that I have time to take a nap.
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:22:19 PM)
ok
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:22:21 PM)
so I can do it at 5 my time/8 your time
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:22:40 PM)
im confused at this time now
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:22:58 PM)
Marcus my schedule changes from week to week
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:23:10 PM)
I'm a manager in a retail store, looking for a way to use my degreee
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:23:14 PM)
I'm good but I know Marcus can't' make it so I hope we can find others...
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:23:17 PM)
this week, I work early on friday
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:23:25 PM)
next week, my schedule changes.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:23:41 PM)
How about a week from friday, 11pm ET/8pm PT?
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:23:46 PM)
so no mage scene for me got it
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:24:07 PM)
I can also do next thursday, I am off all day
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:25:12 PM)
if any times involve roughly now during the week I am fine
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:25:25 PM)
so we're not doing this tonight?
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:25:41 PM)
Here's the problem. Marcus can play at 11:30pm ET. Jon and I are good any time if we know in advance (and the HOA doesn't squabble over bullshit, but I have no more meetings for a while)... I wanted to get others involved too. Craig is on the rig so he won't be able to play this late... I'm just trying to get people involved and give people a chance to mingle and such.
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:25:42 PM)
I will be happy to do *something* with you guys tonight.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:26:31 PM)
Well then lets do something else :)
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:26:36 PM)
Whatever you like SC
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:26:43 PM)
i do have a question as regards to costs....
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:27:18 PM)
how much do rotes cost as I still need to update my sheet,... and how many were we suppose to start with.. as I was approved with more than I should have been :)
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:28:27 PM)
Oh boy. off the top of my head, I don't know. it's either one or xp per rote point, with an additional xp for each additional sphere. so a mnd 3 forces 2 rote I think costs 4
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:28:27 PM)
i'm getting a headache and i'd like to get to bed at some point relatively early tonight... having actually slept last night i'm filled with hope that my spell of insomnia is broken
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:30:22 PM)
so if you folks are gonna be gettin' into something i should probably go ahead and bow on out
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:30:28 PM)
and I think I was told I should have started with 6 rote points starteds with 6 rote points
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:30:43 PM)
I'll take a look at your sheet, marcus. Are you the one I talked to abot this/
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:31:03 PM)
you may have been
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:31:10 PM)
Night Jon.
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:31:13 PM)
it was like a month and a half ago at least
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:31:15 PM)
nite
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:31:24 PM)
Goodnight, jon
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:31:32 PM)
take 'er easy folks
Jonathan Mercer (Nov 30, 2010 11:31:39 PM)
(This user has left DigiChat) (IP = 174.25.170.125)
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:35:42 PM)
I have six dots of rotes from creation. I thought that was normal.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:35:53 PM)
anyway, sorry about the scheduling clusterfuck SC.
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:38:14 PM)
that's Ok
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:38:25 PM)
I undrerstand that how things are and how things go are sometimes very different
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:39:16 PM)
So, a week from Friday you work until what time?
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:41:12 PM)
I also thought Craig was home rather than on the rig, so I was sadly misshapen.
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:41:44 PM)
ima matter mage I can possibly fix that
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:43:16 PM)
I work until 8pm pst
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:43:22 PM)
thursday is really a lot better if you need to do it early
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:43:30 PM)
so that works.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:44:33 PM)
Well if we start at 8pm PT Marcus can make it plus anyone I can pick up between now and then. What I'll do is post it to the threads and tell people to get their butts on for it.
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:46:20 PM)
Sure thing.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:46:21 PM)
Thsi time around Craig told me him and Jareth and Kaydence and such. I know I was late but I wasn't -that- late :P This was a freak occurance. I'm running for the HOA Council so I couldn't leave. The regular meetings are much eariler (and shorter) than this tonight. So would next Friday at 8:30pm PT be good for you?
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:48:26 PM)
yes. and if it's not, I'll wait for it
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:48:45 PM)
I'll be on time if I have to staple myself to my office chair.
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:49:08 PM)
Marcus? Works for you?
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:49:21 PM)
looks like i need to spend 11 xp for the rotes i have
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:49:33 PM)
Put a note in your thread.
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:49:59 PM)
ok and if im reading times right that would be 1130 next friday the 7thish for me correct
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:50:07 PM)
yes
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:50:29 PM)
Friday the 10th
Saffron Dorsey (Nov 30, 2010 11:51:21 PM)
I marked my calendar.
Decepticrane (Nov 30, 2010 11:52:08 PM)
Cool.
Marcus Anderson (Nov 30, 2010 11:52:09 PM)
okay that should work
