Why the prostitution?

If i remember well Lasciel was a prostitute earlier.

[Gustovness]

Sorry if my post ended up a little confusing... mixed up Ashley's and Maria's names on the first go. Couldn't help it... Maria sounds like more of a mafia don's daughter's name to me.

Also let me know if any of those rolls are off. The Leadership role might be wrong. Also let me know if that last one requires Etiquette or something.

Maria IS the Don's daughter.  Point out your confusion, I might have mixed up the names myself while writing without having my coffee this morning.

'
Dude you're totally right.  "play with their minds to make them thing they banged" and all that.  Sorry, hadn't had my coffee yet when I asked that.

[Bewilderbeast]

Bleh, let me go back and change the names again, then... I read somebody's post and it said they were speaking TO Maria. Just to be clear, the girl in the room is Ashley, and we're looking for Maria, right?

EDIT: Found the post that confused me:

She closed her eyes, forcing out the astral sight before opening them again, I am truly sorry to hear your daughter is missing sir, she said towards the Don, the emotion in her aura actually got to her, as much as she needed the money and wanted the reputation, helping someone in so much distress seemed even more important to her for once. Please forgive me sir if any of my questions for Ashley come across wrong, I only have your daughter's best interests in heart and do not mean to offend.


Etiquette test (8d6.hits(5)=1)
Not sure if its needed or not, but if it is the roll is to not offend the Don


She turned to Ashley, Ashley, were you or Maria drinking or anything like that when you were out? Or did anyone buy Maria any drinks, or did she leave any drinks unattended even for a moment? Or was she getting any more attention from others than usual?

Maria starts, "Well yeah we had a few drinks but we wasn't wasted or anythin' like that I swear.  Maria is a pretty girl, ya know? There's always creeps trying to come at us and buy us drinks.  I can't say I noticed anyone especially creepy talking to to her at the show.  As for slipping something in her drink... God I don't even want to think about that but... It might have been the only way Maria would have left the club with some guy like that so quick, ya know?  My friend is no slut!  She wouldn't just LEAVE with some guy especially when we were at the show together!"

[Padawan]

Yes, we are talking to Ashely and looking for Maria. Is it bad that while reading Ashley's story the only thing I could think of was JWoww from Jersey Shore? lmao

[Ren]

I would like to point out that the Don left the room after telling us about the situation. That is the reason why i converse with Massimo.
Please dont address the Don in the IC thread.

[Padawan]

Whoops, missed that "into the kitchen part", changed it so I went to Massimo instead.

[Ren]

@Severus: Please let us react to your actions next time. I am pretty sure that Concrete can reach Needle before she reaches her bus and i surely would not let her take the only physical evidence with just that side note about her comm. In this case let us say that Concrete was too much into the talk with Massimo (despite the high Perception pool he has) to react fast enough and he certainly doesn't want to look worse in front of an employer by starting to shout at her.

Just realised that I'd not posted character sheet

After reading through the most recent in-character posts, I think my character's negative quality of Uncouth might not be the best fit here.  Am I wrong in thinking that maybe she shouldn't be a part of this group?

[Padawan]

You've got to remember this is also the first time our characters are meeting. So at the moment they're probably all sort of not sure how to react to you. Like my character said, she has the temper of a Troll, which is meant as a compliment from him

[Ren]

IMO these not-the-best fits are one of the two greatest opportunities for good RP. I say lets try to work out the differences IC.
Of course it is your decision. I just say why not try.

You've got to keep in mind that we have no way of knowing your character is 'uncouth' or socially maladjusted or whatever. We literally just met her. For all we know, you might be taking that commlink and rushing it over to the cops or the mob's enemies or something. All we have is your word and the fact that Massimo saw fit to hire you.

I'm all about role-playing things out.  I just don't want to irritate you guys PERSONALLY with her actions.  Your characters will get over it, and we can RP it all out.  I just want to make sure the players aren't irritated.
