After nimbly avoiding the patrol drones and coming to the school's main doors and finding them locked, Serge looks around for a ground floor window that looks like a likely candidate for entry.

Perception to locate a suitable window into this building, preferably one that has a bit of cover with no one on the other side.

@Serge - all the windows are barred shut. You will need a crowbar to open a window, or to be very strong - but it won't be very stealthy. On the third floor, there are unbarred window, but it may be a tricky climb.

@All - Consider your edge refreshed -every new run. If we get to have very long runs I might refresh mid run.

Not seeing an appropriate window on ground level, but spotting one on the third floor, Serge, heartened by the events earlier in the day decides to attempt to scale up to that window.


No guts, no glory. I'm going for it. (I think this counts as "being particularly brave" :) )

I think 4 hits should be sufficient for that, but I could attempt rerolling failures if necessary. This is a really cool and flashy moment after all.

Maxwell knows that in order to sneak past the drones he would need to do it fast and quiet.  But for that he would need an elemental's help.  Maxwell cries out in the astral for a spirit to aid him.  "Spirit of cold midnight, come to me."

Summoning Force 7 Water Spirit: 11d6t5 7

Spirit Resist: 7d6t5 1

7 - 1 = 6 Services

Drain Resist: 11d6t5 5

All Drain Resisted.

Let's call this spirit Hoarfrost and it'll have the optional powers: Elemental Attack - Cold and Guard

@Maxwell you can see that Serge did not wait for you, you easily spot him climbing the building. You also spot an armed rotor drone that move toward him. The drone did not detect serge quite yet, but it may detect him very soon. It is armed with an assault rifle and you feel that if you do not act quickly Serge will be hit by the drone unable to even dodge.

"Hoarfrost, use your power of concealment to hide Serge and I from watchful eyes.  Sustain it until I tell you otherwise."

@The rotodrone just keep flying completely missing Serge, that continue to climb.


For the same service you can conceal up to 7 people, you sure you do not want to conceal yourself and David?

@Max with the spirits help you quickly arrive to the main entrance, it is locked and all the windows are bolted down. In the third floor there is an open window. Perhaps this is why serge is climbing. You can either unlock the doors somehow, perhaps if you have a crowbar open one of the windows - or climb to the third floor.

@Serge you make your way to the window, it is a classroom filled with tables, chairs and a big old school whiteboard. (The kind that you actually write on by hand).  There are all sort of spare parts and few hardware kits on the floor. You can also spot a small puddle of blood in one of the corners.  You can hear some terrifying roar from the hall, but the door to the hall is locked.

Roll perception + intuition

Maxwell isn't a proficient climber and he didn't bring any breaking and entering tools either.  It didn't take long before the idea on how to get inside pop into his head.  "Hoarfrost, quietly open one of these windows so I can get inside unnoticed."

@Maxwell - the water elemental looks at you confused... "any suggestions on how to open that window? "  You'll need a crowbar and it won't be very stealthy it will make a lot of noise to unbolt the windows.

@Serge Carefully examining the room you sense that the puddle of blood is very fresh. There are also small blood drops on the walls next to it. You are a physician you can tell, someone was wounded, perhaps killed in this very room you are in not long ago.  There is dust on the tables, this classroom was clearly was not in use for quite a while, it is unusual for the Brain eaters to abandon this kind of equipment.

Perplexed and annoyed about the predicament, Maxwell goes though a list of ideas in his head.  Scraping one after another as most of them end in explosions and loud noises.  "It'd be easier if Hoarfrost could just carry me up there...  Holy shit why don't I just have him do that!"

"Hey Hoarfrost, carry me up through that open window up there and take me inside the school."

@Maxwell - the spirit carries you to the room without an effort. You are soaking wet, but otherwise safe when you enter the room. You notice that serge is carefully examining the room.

You can read the room description few posts above it apply for you as well.

Maxwell opens his third eye in order to do some astral recon on the general area.

@Maxwell You sense nothing magical in this room, other than the three of you, there are no visible astral forms.
