Just to let you know, active skills like gymnastics, climbing, dodge, combat etc will be at -2 penalty due to the rocking motion of the boat.
Balance augmenters/natural athlete/catlike will negate that penalty though

[Lumen]

Perception 4 + Intuition 3 + Enhancements 3 - Wounds 1 = 9d6. 9d6.hits(5)=2

Oh boy this should be fun.  If Knives doesn't end this quick it could get tricky.

[Scawire]

Sorry for the delay

Perception (visual) 1(3) + INT 2 + audio Enhancement 3 - wound 2 = 4

http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4659727/ 0 hits and I did get 2 ones so Critical Glitch. OH no The team is going to get their own mage first.

[Scawire]

Here are my ides for karma improvement for Mantis 5th edition

Character Improvements:
20 Karma / 1 Left over

New Spell  (Vehicle Mask) 5 Karma

Improved Skills
Sneaking 1(3) => 3 (5) 10 Karma
Perception 1(3) => 2 (4) 4 Karma

[Csjarrat]

karma spend looks good to me, edited my last IC post with your info scawire.
The audio enhancement will just glitch out until it is repaired with a computer (1) test or hardware (1) test either way

[Lumen]

Infiltration 3 + Agility 6 - Wounds 1 - Boat rocking 2 = 6d6.  6d6.hits(5)=3

[Csjarrat]

the two blokes are a bit preoccupied as you open the door very slowly. if you choose to enter, i'll need suprise and initiative, you'll be at +6 for prior knowledge

@scawire, that won't apply to you as you didnt perceive anything. you'll need to communicate with knives to get prior knowledge bonus

[Lumen]

Knives is not going to take kindly to the scene before him and filling Mantis in beforehand is not on is mind.
Reaction 6 + Intuition 3 + Prior Knowledge 6 - Wounds 1 - Boat rocking 2 = 12d6.  12d6.hits(5)=6

Initiative: Reaction 6 + Intuition 3 - Wounds 1 - Boat rocking 2 = 6d6. 6d6.hits(5)=1

That puts him at Surpise 6, Initiative 7, IPs 3.

[Scawire]

Ok Clumsy mage about to blow the surprise test.

REA 2(3) + INT 2 -Wound 2 - Boat be rocking 2 = 1
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4660191/ 0 hits with a 1 for a roll. Ok I'm as loud as you can get.

Initiative: Reaction 2(3) + Intuition 2 - Wounds 3 - Boat rocking 2 = 1
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4660193/ 0 his but no glitch

Initiative = 5 w 2 passes

2 glitches in a row dam that is NOT good but hey want is fun about getting everything right all the time.

[Csjarrat]

You do have 1 point of edge each if you want to use it remember

[Lumen]

I'm saving that edge until we see how many pirates we're dealing with or until I screw up a roll bad.

[Csjarrat]

suprise:
Spirit:
6d6.hits(5)=1
Naked man
4d6.hits(5)=0
Girl 1  (on bunk)
2d6.hits(5)=0
Girl 2 (behind door)
2d6.hits(5)=0 crit glitch
man 2 (behind door)
2d6.hits(5)=0 crit glitch

@lumen:Everyone is surprised by knives and cannot act aggressively towards him once spotted.

@Scawire: You crit glitch the surprise test so essentially are surprised by everyone in the room, IC it as just being stunned by the depravity of the scene and being a bit dumbfounded at what your eyes are registering.

Initiative order:
Spirit @ 8, 2 passes
Knives @ 7, 3 passes
Naked man @ 6. 1 pass (suprised + unaware)
Girl on bunk @ 5. 1 pass (surprised + unaware)
Mantis @5 (total suprise)

_____________________________
Spirit uses it's guard power on the three of you and will nullify all further glitches until it receives a command to do something else, or is drawn into active combat.
Crit glitches will be downgraded to regular glitches.

Lumen, you're up

[Scawire]

Ok cool, sorry for the delay just got back from college.

Ya I was thinking if I wanted to use my Edge, having only 1 point I was going to save it. That is way 5th edition Mantis got more then one edge point.

[Csjarrat]

yeah, spirit is going to help with glitches now anyways so you might need it in combat lol

[Csjarrat]

er... just seen your IC mate, you're out of initiative order, hang fire until Lumen has got his post up as we're back on the combat timer.
And its rape anyways, not "hot dam" material
