Mad Group logs 2

[15:01:11] <@Mad_GM>  When we last saw our group they had just defeated a mob of feral ghouls. With night fast approaching they are faced with a choice: continue on into the darkness or hold up and make camp
[15:01:23] <@Mad_GM>  *[Session 2 Start]*
[15:02:18] Twobits shakes herself a little, putting her axe back in it's sling
[15:03:36] Minuet sighs. "Well, that was a hassle. Let's make camp somewhere, ghouls see better in the dark than us."
[15:04:08] Mad_GM [Volta] nods in agreement
[15:04:45] Twobits shrugs, ''alright then. any clues to a good spot?''
[15:05:23] Minuet gazes around the landscape, getting her bearings
[15:07:58] Volta [[email protected]] has joined #mad_group
[15:08:40] Kichaka [[email protected]] has joined #mad_group
[15:08:48] Minuet [[email protected]] has quit IRC: Killed (NickServ (GHOST command used by Kichaka))
[15:08:54] Kichaka [[email protected]] is now known as Minuet
[15:10:04] <@Mad_GM>  In the dieing light the group can see a few ruined building of what was once probably a small rest stop on the outskirts to the city proper. Very little remains other than a few collapsed buildings, dead trees and the still standing building that the ghouls had attacked from.
[15:11:38] Volta looks at the others "recomend that we seek shelter inside"
[15:11:58] Minuet ponders for a moment. "We should check inside the building the ghouls came from. If it's empty, we can use it to rest. Chances are nothing will bother us, seeing the area scattered with corpses."
[15:15:10] Twobits chuckles, ''well then what are we waiting for?'' she strides up to the door, glancing back to the others, ''coming?''
[15:16:14] Minuet nods and follows after twobits
[15:16:25] Volta cocks her head and flies over twobits waiting at the right side of the door waiting
[15:16:48] Mad_GM [Silvermane] follow the others inside
[15:19:19] <@Mad_GM>  inside the musty smelling store there are several shelves covered in mold and decayed merchandise. Off to the left there is a row of old coolers and at the back there is a counter with what appears to a still functioning terminal on it
[15:20:54] Minuet peers around in the gloom. "Hmm.... Twobits, you have an axe. You should check upstairs, might be something left alive up there."
[15:21:49] Minuet trots further into the building, her gun out at the ready.
[15:22:00] <@Mad_GM>  the stairs are behind the counter, there are the remains of a smashed in door infront
[15:22:50] Twobits smiles, nodding to minuet, ''alrigh' lass, but if I find anything, I get dibs.''
[15:23:39] Minuet snerks. "Even if it smells funky?"
[15:26:08] Twobits grins, ''maybe. might make a good distraction if ye throw it at raiders.''
[15:26:53] Minuet chuckles. "From the looks of their decoration choices, I doubt they /can/ smell anything."
[15:27:44] Twobits smirks at minuet's comment and walks to the stairs, looking around the corner of the ruined door
[15:28:23] <@Mad_GM>  the stairs lead up to another bashed in door
[15:29:19] Volta hops over to the terminal looking the screen over
[15:30:46] <@Mad_GM>  Volta can see that the terminal is indeed still active and there appears to be a floor safe tucked away in the corner behind the counter
[15:33:10] Twobits starts up the stairs, moving her eyes about as she kept an eye out for traps or loot
[15:33:54] Volta looks down at the safe "safe with proximity to terminal, high chance if linked locking matrix" she talks to herself as she taps on the terminal hoping to log in
[15:34:06] <@Mad_GM>  as Twobits reaches the top of the stairs she can see that the room is a small studio apartment. It has all the basics: a small kitchen, couch facing a broken TV and a small bedroom area
[15:34:59] Minuet positions herself by the door, keeping watch for anything unsavory, violent, or mildly unpleasant.
[15:36:45] <@Mad_GM>  once Twobits enters the room proper she can see a single ghoul standing in-front of the old fridge starring into it blankly
[15:39:04] Volta smiles and starts to tap at the key bord her long talons clicking loudly
[15:46:21] <@Mad_GM>  the ghould is a little smaller than a full grown pony and was most likely a teenager when they turned. It also appears that the ghoul has a towel draped over its back, almost as if somepony had been using it as a towel rack
[15:46:59] Volta taps a talon on the keyboard causing a rhythmic tapping as she reads what she could salvage of the report before pressing a button causing a click slightly louder than the others she was making to come from her direction
[15:47:46] Minuet glances back at the loud click echoing through the building, then resumes peering out at the wastes
[15:50:19] Twobits walks up to beside the ghoul looking into the empty fridge then thinking for a moment
[15:51:46] Mad_GM [Silvermane] stands next to Minuet looking a little board
[15:53:37] Volta stops making the noise as she looks under the desk for a bit before standing back up a folded piece of paper in her claws
[15:54:58] Twobits clears her throat, pulling a lump of meat from her bag, ''Oi kid... since yer larder seems a bit dry, want me to share this with yeh?'' she then moves the meat about halfway between them
[15:55:09] Silvermane [[email protected]] has joined #mad_group
[15:56:32] Volta taps the power button on the terminal causing it to switch off as she hops onto the desk reading at the colorful piece of paper in her claws
[15:57:19] <@Mad_GM>  the teenage ghoul turns to at being spoken to and lets out a gurgling hiss at it begins to advance on Twobits, it seems more interested in her than the hunk of meat
[16:04:32] Twobits sighs, shifting her axe on her back, ''look, kid ye don't have no daft fool on yer hooves here. now, if me mam taught me anything, it's that any ailment can be fixed with a little good food.'' she then tries to force the food into the ghoul's mouth
[16:05:13] <Silvermane> "Tactful."
[16:05:41] <@Mad_GM>  Twobits accidentally jams the into the ghouls eye causeing it to screech in paint and kick at her
[16:06:31] <Silvermane> "Very tactful."
[16:08:24] Twobits sighs, mutter in under her breath as she moves to pull her axe free, ''thanks fer nothing, bones.''
[16:10:17] Twobits brings her axe down on the ghoul
[16:11:08] <@Mad_GM>  Twobits axe sinks into the teenage ghoul, dropping it to the ground
[16:12:38] Twobits shakes her head, taking the now ruined meat and placing it into the dying ghoul's mouth, ''ye llast meal will nae be yer own kin, child.'' she then helps him chew as his life fades away
[16:14:46] <@Mad_GM>  with the distraction of the ghoul gone Twobits can see there is a pile of bones in the corner that seem to have been pushed into the corner of the kitchen, there also seem to be a much fresher pony corpse leaning against the wall on the far side of the room
[16:15:18] <@Mad_GM>  along with a door acros from the bed
[16:17:23] Minuet sighs and looks out at the wastes. "Nice weather, eh?"
[16:18:04] Twobits pats the colt's head, wondering who he was before she gets up, walking to the recent corpse and giving it a once-over
[16:20:11] <Silvermane> "No, its a bit cloudy today. Wouldnt you say?" He smirks.
[16:21:17] <@Mad_GM>  the corps is badly chewed and is whearing equally chewed barding, it could still be used though
[16:22:00] Minuet smiles idly. "Well, could be worse. Could be rain, or enclave, or what have you. Cant say I've ever seen it rain enclave, but you never know."
[16:22:01] <@Mad_GM>  there is also some usable items with him
[16:22:55] <Silvermane> "I think I could see the application of if raining mares."
[16:24:05] Minuet glances sideways at Silvermane. "I never pegged you for a squished corpse guy."
[16:24:54] Silvermane wave a dramatic hoof. "Nonsense! Everypony knows PEgasi cant die by falling, it impossible."
[16:25:21] Twobits collects the items, stowing them in her saddlebags for later use and looking around the room for anything else
[16:25:28] Volta stops reading the paper and looks up "yes they can" she then looks back down
[16:28:28] Minuet ponders this. "Guess so. Unless theyre asleep. Meh, I dont see it raining mares anytime soon, armored or no."
[16:29:27] Silvermane stomps hi hoof back down. "You are the opposite of fun. You are a fun vampire, destines to take all the fun in a room and suck it dry."
[16:30:42] Volta points a talon "that is a baseless accusation, you have no evidence of that"
[16:31:08] Minuet snerks. "Hey now, thats not fair. I try to leave /some/ of the fun, cant let my fellow fun vampires starve."
[16:32:02] Silvermane plops down on the ground, crossing his forhooves and huffing. "By the way, in the future, Volta. Dont... Talk to ponies."
[16:33:56] Volta slips the paper into her lab coat and makes her way to the bathroom "i shall endeavor to keep that in mind"
[16:34:59] Twobits ruffles through the bedding, opening the cupboards and checking under and behind many things, looking for anything that would be useful, going so far as to check the skeleton slightly
[16:36:43] <Silvermane> "You've got no tact, no way with ponies. You're going to end up insulting somepony."
[16:37:56] <@Mad_GM>  a few items of interest are found, some still eatable pre-war food, some still wearable pre-war cloths, a large case and a heavy box under the bed and in the night stand a small pistol with a box of ammo and a hoof full of caps
[16:39:08] Volta stops suddenly her head turning as she looks Silvermane over her piercing gaze traveling all over him before entering the bathroom
[16:39:30] Silvermane shrugs.
[16:41:42] Twobits drags the box out, prying it open with a hoof, storing everything else in her sadlebags for now
[16:42:18] <Silvermane> "She ca nhuff all she wants, its not going to help."
[16:42:49] Minuet giggles.
[16:44:06] Twobits pauses opening it as she realises she forgot the nightstand, grabbing the items there
[16:44:27] Volta starts to look around the bathroom for any supplies
[16:44:58] <@Mad_GM>  Volta finds a locked first aid kid in the bathroom
[16:48:30] Volta runs a talon across the box before going back into the main room and looking for anything of use
[16:51:18] <@Mad_GM>  Volta dose not find much but she dose find a screwdriver and a few bobby pins on top of a hoof full of eatable pre-war food
[16:54:16] Volta makes her way back into the bathroom and starts to pick the lock snapping the first in anger before calming herself and opening it with a click
[16:58:54] Volta after leaving the bathroom she starts to sweep the floor waiting for Twobits to come back down with the all clear as she looks for anything useful
[17:02:11] Twobits finishes, carrying the box down the stairs, ''oi, I found something.'' she then places it on a table, waiting for the others to come close
[17:03:27] Volta looks up at Twobits and hops over glideing low in the shop before landing next to her
[17:05:41] <@Mad_GM>  the group has been picking through the old store for about an hour and darkness has fallen, it has also begun to rain
[17:06:52] Minuet grumbles. "Great. Rain. Well, at least it'll remove any tracks we may have left."
[17:07:34] Volta looks at the box Twobits brought down
[17:10:51] Volta opens the box and takes a look inside
[17:11:20] Twobits stands by, looking in as well
[17:14:18] <@Mad_GM>  inside Volta finds an old service carbine equipped with a small scope and extended magazines, 3 boxes worth of 5.56mm ammo, a set of trooper armour in decent shape and 3 issues of 'Wing Boner' magazine. Seems the original occupant of that apartment was in some sort of home guard or militia.
[17:17:33] Volta "are any of you trained in the use of that firearm?" she picks up the magazines slipping them into her saddlebags without a second glance
[17:20:52] Twobits smirks at volta, ''didn't think ye played for that team, griffon.'' she also shakes her head, ''not my kind of weapon.''
[17:23:24] <@Mad_GM>  while the group going through the contents of the box a zebra mare slinks into the building seeking shelter from the rain. She seems to be in rough shape and looks as if she hasn't slept in days.
[17:25:04] Volta raises an eyebrow but disides there is no point debateing her sexual prefrances "shame" she looks to Minuet and Silvermane "do you use this kind of-" she stops and looks at the zebra cocking her head to the side "who are you?"
[17:26:02] Ishantea The young zebra seems dressed in a beat up duster, that’s about a size to big for her, and a battle saddle armed with a pair of small machine guns on it. You can see some old and healing burns on the left side of her neck.
[17:27:32] <Ishantea> "This Humble fucking Zebra is known as Ishantea of the Demon Tongue tribe. And she hopes that this collection of ponies is, for a change, not fucking looking to kill, rob, rape or eat her in any kind of order."
[17:29:21] Twobits turns, pausing a moment when she sees Ishantea, ''Och, a striped lass... with the tongue of a sailsmare too.'' she smiles, letting og of her axe, ''trust me, we're not going t'be any trouble.''
[17:29:23] Volta "i have no intention of doing so nor am i a pony" she leans back keeping her talons off of her MEP "do you require medical aid?"
[17:29:30] Silvermane , mildly upset somepon-zebra managed to link past him on his watch, coughs and gets to his hooves. "Beggin your pardon, but I dont think we're fully aquainted." She bows lighlty, taking off his hat. "Im Silvermane, and you look like you've had a rough day."
[17:30:26] Minuet sits there looking puzzled at the new arrival.
[17:32:10] Ishantea first turnign to Volta "Thsi humble fuckig zebra apologizes for miss labeling you as a pony instead of as a Gryphon" then to Silver "this humble zebra has indeed had a fucking rough day, and is out of all of her
[17:32:25] <Ishantea> edible supplies" [hit the button on accident XD]
[17:33:50] <Silvermane> "Well why dont ya put the weapons down and take a tep over here, I got ome food on me I can spare." He smiles, putting his hat back on. "Even got a bottle of Sarsparilla, from the west. Ya ever had onea those?"
[17:35:05] Volta taps her talons on the floor and clicks her tongue in her mouth "i would be happy to treat you... free of charge of course" she looks at Silvermane as he offers her food
[17:36:46] Ishantea "this humble fucking zebra must apologizes again, her guns are attached to her saddle bags and can not really be put down" she replies seating her self on the floor, the guns now pointing up into the air as non hostiley as possible. "i would welcome any food you can, This humble ebra has not had a fucking thing to eat in the past two days since she left her previous employment."
[17:38:01] <Silvermane> "Im not about to ask what that was." He says as he pulls from his pack a package of pre-war food, sliding it across the ground to the Zebra. "Here, take this."
[17:38:39] Ishantea gladly takes the food and quickly chows down.
[17:38:51] Minuet shrugs and returns to looking out at the wasteland, keeping watch for things less pleasant than this zebra.
[17:39:23] Silvermane rummages around in his pack again, 'aha!'-ing as he pulls out a yellowish bottle filled with dark liquid out as well. "Sunrise Sarsparilla! Little taste of New Las Pegasus right here." She slides it over to her as well.
[17:40:11] Twobits looks over the zebra's weapons, shrugging at it, /such a fancy setup jst to kill things.../
[17:41:40] Ishantea takes a sip of the Sarsparilla, and seems quite surprised by the taste "this humble zebra has never had somthing so fucking sweet!"
[17:41:49] Volta "threat level high, threat potential low" she starts to talk to herself agen “potential for aid, previous employer? mercenary? perhaps. part of zebra tribe. conclusion need more data” she clicks her tongue
[17:43:28] Ishantea turns to Volta and replies tilting her head to the side "this Humble fuckign zebra must apologise yet again, for she dose not understand what the gryphon is saying"
[17:43:36] Silvermane deftly ignores the Gryphon. "It came mainly from the Las Pegasus area, back b'fore the War. Sorta like a competator to the traditional brand of Cola what came outta Manehattan." He sits down by the Zebra. "I took some with me when I came from out west."
[17:45:38] Volta starts to pace "injured? but what by? how? when?" she stops and looks at Ishantea scrutinising every part of her like one would a piece of art
[17:50:27] <Ishantea> "This humble Zebra's only injuries come from a labratory accident several days ago"
[17:50:42] <Ishantea> [several Fucking days^]
[17:52:12] Volta eyes seem to shine "laboratory? interesting..." she thinks the tapping from her talons getting quicker "inquiry, who did you work for?"
[17:52:33] Twobits finally speaks back up, ''that swearing thing... is it because of your tribe?'' she's not very subtle is she?
[17:52:35] Silvermane pulls his hat down a little. He's surrounded by madponies.
[17:54:48] Minuet snerks from the doorway.
[17:55:39] Ishantea turning to Twobits "this Humble ebra apoologizes, she has been told on several occasaions that she posses a fucking foul mouth" before turning back to Volta "this humble zebra must beg a question, is it really fucking important were her former employment was? this Humble Fucking Zebra was mearly one of several lab ponies that produced a veriety of substances"
[17:56:38] <Silvermane> "Lay off the kid, Beak. She looks like shes had it rough."
[17:58:14] Twobits nods, ''silvermane makes a good point. let's get some food going.''
[17:58:33] Volta leans back looking at Silvermane then back to Ishantea "verry well" she then looks to Twobits "is there anywhere to sleep here?"
[17:59:12] Mad_GM [[email protected]] is now known as Mad_Modd
[17:59:47] Twobits bats a hoof into her face, ''forgot it's late... I'll take first watch.'' she then walks over to the door, sitting by it with her axe against her shoulder, humming a soft tune
[18:01:16] Twobits [[email protected]] is now known as Vieral
[18:01:24] <@Mad_Modd>  for looting, hacking and lockpicking as well as good RP the group recieves 350 XP
[18:01:45] Volta makes her way upstairs bunching all the clean cloth in the room together into a nest before going to sleep
[18:01:53] <@Mad_Modd>  and an extra 100 for slaying the ghoul
