With more eyes in the room to look over the Ork Mantis again leans on the wall and starts to check each of his missed calls one by one. Lets see who the hell is trying to tell me something, or demand of me something.

Ork? huh...
Dunk pulls his pistol out from under the pillow and checks the chamber.
Fuck, three left.
He stuffs it into his waist band in the small of his back and pulls his loose sweater over the top of it, following you downstairs..

Coming back into the living area via the kitchen, you sling Mantis his commlink as you pass the doorway. he catches it with ease.
{at knives}You better watch your fucking mouth pal.{he eyes Mantis and extended an upward facing palm, gesturing for the 'link} The data on that?

Mantis not wanting to hand the comm over before he gets to check his messages and missed calls first. Ya but sit back enjoy your drink I've got something to check then I'll let you have it. Mantis first checks through his comm link for missed call and messages once that is done he will decide if he wants this new nameless guy to get the intel. Don't know if this is our contact never got a go ahead from the boss, lets see what the calls have to say. The guy did find the safe house and seems to know alot about the run odds are he is on the level but I'm checking the comm first then I'll hand over the intel.

Mantis looks at the ork. Well we are a bit pushy in the morning. Thinks as he sees he can't recognize the comm codes. Sure thing bud give me your comm code and I'll send you the info. There is no way I'm handing over the only copy to you with-out my Boss first giving me the ok, also this comm link here is my life blood for work no way I'm letting an ork I never meet before start messing around with it. So hand over the comm code and the intel is yours. Mantis tells his agent to get the file ready. Slicer MD copy the last downloaded file and get ready to send it to the comm code I give you. Mantis eyeballs the ork in the safe-house. You know full well if you go back to the boss empty handed your up shit creek too so just hand over the comm code and I'll send you a copy. Mantis is not to sure about this ork but he is not going to give over the only copy to this guy, worst case he is Interpol and the safe house is a death trap, or he could be working for the enemy in which case this safe house is again going to look like a morgue, best case he is on the level and just a few comm code input later the last run is done.

Its hard to gauge the ork's angle and why he is being so forceful. You can't tell whether he's just throwing his muscle around or whether there is another agenda in play.

____Scawire + Lumen____
I ain't going back to anyone empty handed you fucker.
He raises both arms, pointing one at each of you and with a barely perceptable shrug, two large pistols appear in his meaty paws.
Put it down on the floor and slowly slide it to me, or I'll shoot you all
He looks decidedly calm, like he has done this sort of thing before. Pure malice is in his eyes, you don't doubt his seriousness for a second.
I'm gonna count to three. You really don't wanna push me today.

Mantis puts his hands up like that takes away his magic and says. Hey don't get all shooty on us here. With that he casts an invisibility spell on himself.

Reaction 3 + Intuition 2 = 5
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4326777/ 0 hits no glitch

Initiative 5 / 2 passes

Will wait to cast spell when it is his turn.

@CS
Hey do I still have damage and if so how much?????

Once Mantis see's knives duck for cover he makes a run in the opposite direction then where Knives is looking for some kind of cover in that side of the not so safe... Safe house.

___Lumen + Scawire___
you guys are just carrying your physical wounds now (handwaived the stun damage due to good sleep + first aid treatment at first safe-house)
Initiative:
ork: ini (10d6.hits(5)=4) 14 /2 passes
dunk: rea 7, int 4 (11d6.hits(5)=2) 13 /2passes
knives: 10 /2passes
mantis 5 /2 passes

Seeing you dive for cover, the ork opens fire at each of you with his heavy pistols, loosing a single shot from each gun.
Actions: simple, fire weapon (knives): agi 4, pistols 4, spec 2 (10d6.hits(5)=1) 1 hit
simple, fire weapon (mantis): agi 4, pistols 4, spec 2 (10d6.hits(5)=5) 5 hits!

Dunk grabs his pistol from the small of his back and returns fire, taking cover behind the doorway into the kitchenette.

attack roll:agi 4, pistols 3, (7d6.hits(5)=1)
defense roll: rea 6 (6d6.hits(5)=3) ork now at -1 to defend against further actions.

The ork sees him draw dawn out of the corner of his eye and dodges the shot, the round impacting into the wall behind him and kicking up a huge burst of plascrete dust.
The muzzle flashes light up the room in a staccato burst of bright light.

___Sillasion___
The serpent overpowers your attempt to shut him down and you feel his mana evading you, weaving into form ahead of you. The road ahead shimmers as it snap freezes, a huge area turning to ice.
Your formation appears not to have realised what is going on, heading full tilt for it.
Roll for initiative!!

Knives only had 8S and no Physical so he has no negative modifiers. Huzzah!

Reaction 5 = 5d6
5d6.hits(5)=3


The bullet whizs by Knives' arm as he ducks behind the couch.  As soon as he lands the taser is called to his hand and he wastes no time popping back up and firing off two shots at the orkish prick.


Free Action: Draw taser from arm slide
Simple Action 1: Fire taser
Agility 6 + Pistols(Taser) 2(4) + Smartlink 2 = 12d6
12d6.hits(5)=6
5S(e) + Net Hits -half AP

Simple Action 2: Fire taser
Agility 6 + Pistols(Taser) 2(4) + Smartlink 2 - Recoil 1 = 11d6
11d6.hits(5)=6
5S(e) + Net Hits -half AP

Mantis was a bit slow on the run so he his wishing he would have grabbed his armor before opening the door to some psycho Ork. Oh well armored undies best do their job.... ya right like that will happen in Mantis's life time.


Reaction 3
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4326851/ 0 hits

This is going to hurt

Damage Resistance
Body 4 + Armor (F.F. 1/2 Body) Ballistic 4 = 8
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4326852/ 2 hits Ouch.

Spend edge to re-roll all dice that did not hit  ( 6 )
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4326854/ 3 hits
Total hits 5



Mantis gets hit on the run to cover not a good thing when you wake up, you know soy-cafe some pancakes not a bleed hole in the shoulder, but that is the life as a runner someone always wants to geek you for all the hard work you have done.

Even with the bloody wound in his shoulder Mantis gathers mana and tries his best to turn invisible.


Not I now have a physical wound but I don't know how bad so minus the dice off the back end of the roll as always.
Force 5 Imp Invisibility
Spellcasting (combat) 5 (7) + Magic 3= 8
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4326860/ 2 hits well maybe only 1

Drain 3 Stun
Will 5 + Logic 7 +Daredrenaline 1 = 13
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4326864/ 6 hits no drain.



Mana gathers around Mantis and cloaks him from the eyes of the others.

__Knives__
Seeing his shot punch a hole in the sofa, the ork knew he'd have to act fast to avoid the retaliation. He'd fucked up by being too trigger happy, he knew it.
goes full defense:
1st dodge roll; rea 6, gym 4, -1 defense (9d6.hits(5)=4) 2 net hits, for 7s
soak: bod 7 , 1/2 impact 4 + non conduct 2 (13d6.hits(5)=3) dang, edge
bod 7 , 1/2 impact 4 + non conduct 2 (10d6.hits(5)=4), more like it

2 dodge roll: 2nd dodge+ edge (9d6.hitsopen(5,6)=3) ooch
hit for 8S
soak: 2nd soak (13d6.hits(5)=3) takes 5S

The ork tucks into a diving roll as soon as he sees the bullet go wide, fully expecting a hail of retribution.
He is not wrong, your first bolt slams into his side, his armour taking the brunt of it's discharge.
The second hits him square in his thigh, discharging a whacking bolt of energy into his body. He yelps and spasms, struggling to his feet.

__Mantis___
he is using twin ares predators (5P -1AP)
0 hits on dodge puts you at 11P damage. forgot to tell you what weapon he was using so don't worry about the -1ap affecting your rolls. you take 6P damage and are knocked down (more damage than you have ranks in BOD)

The pistol round slams into your shoulder and you feel a bolt of intense searing pain overcoming your senses. The impact carries so much momentum into your body that you're thrown to the ground, screaming in pain as you feel the blood loss as a sticky mess down your back and across your chest.
re-do your initiative pass please taking the above into account

You're free to act, 2 passes before impact into the ice sheet
