Jim's Action PM 1

Jim's Action PM 1

setup
	examine my room
		might as well while he's just sitting around and shiz
		it's pretty bare, so shouldn't take long
			under the futon, in the little compartment, anything up by the lights, etc.
	remove the pillow case from the pillow
		it is now a makeshift sack for holding stuff
	things to bring:
		pillow case (hold on to it)
			Caltraps (in the pillow case)
			Ponyo (in the pillow case)
		Stage Assistant (in pocket)
		Bowie Knife (concealed on person in his pocket, waistband, whatever)
		leave his trumpet and pillow in his room
	apparently, Isabella and I are getting something special for saving the hostage
		"special guest"? hopefully something to help me guard the area
		quickly explain the gist of this to my allies if I ever see them
Game Plan (part 1)
	go with Matthew to the Dorms
		draw my Bowie Knife for initial room scouting
			Hoss said this was a dangerous room. "8 little doggies"
			there are 8 dorms. Something bad in each one? beds, dressers, idk?
			i dunno. Either way, take warning
				Hopefully Matthew will have a weapon too
	escort Matthew to the shower, I'll search the Dorms
		keep the Bowie Knife ready while surveying this area
			if everything's cleared, Jim will sheathe it
		go to the Dorm Mother's room (it has a door and posters inside)
			scan the room, look under the bed
			if possible to do quickly, take the posters
				tearing down, cutting down, whatevs
				roll them up, shove 'em in the sack
				Big Hoss said they're important
		then look under every bed on the male side (Jim's not a perv!)
		don't bother with the dressers and anything extra unless i'm still waiting on Matthew
	as soon as Matthew finishes (hopefully before Ordeals unlock), go into the ordeal room for the dorms
		check for Caltraps when entering
			someone else has them too (since Jim got some from the Hoss shop)
			logistics be damned, this is the only time they'll screw Jim and Matthew up so be careful about this
		if someone else is already starting / trying to do the Ordeal, threaten them away
			if that person seems to have serious backup, probably follow Matthew's lead on this
				might mean cutting our losses and going to Classroom
				might mean standing and fighting
			if that person is alone and refuses to leave, it's fighting time (gotta get Carnage points somehow)
				drive them out or unconscious
				my Service perks are too good to pass by and Jim's got 3 Death Marks
					he needs this
		if we get there early and there's no threats, suggest to do the mutual Major injury now
			get it out of the way early
			might as well use my Bowie Knife for it, it's already drawn and ready to go (rip durability)
		do the Ordeal
			Matthew will stand guard (hopefully)
				if for some reason he's not and Giovanni, Ulricha, or Enzo is in the Dorms, release the Caltraps on the floor just inside the door
				that way if someone comes in, Jim's got a chance to fight
					once again, either drive them out or "kill" for the unconscious
			take the marks off of himself and Isabella
				if for some reason he can only remove one, prioritize Isabella
Game Plan (part 2)
	this is where things get fuzzy
	since this is the Ordeal of Tardiness, Jim may have to waste time for it
		if so, suggest for Matthew to go on ahead to the Classroom
		he mentioned wanting to write that essay
	if Matthew splits up:
		if either of us still need to complete it, do the mutual Major injury on each other before he leaves
		tell him to find some pencil and paper, or any suitable means of writing
		stick around in the Dorm room for that Masterwork item, the Sleep Mask
			something about admiring the art?
				just wait the rest of the round in there looking at the (perhaps stolen) posters
				maybe a clue, maybe just wasting time. Who knows
				if Jim does get it:
					use it ASAP if things feel dangerous
					losing it right as he gets it would be embarrassing as hell
			if someone attacks me in the Dorms or things seem dangerous
				priority is to run
				if i successfully took them, throw the posters up in the air and run away
					hopefully that'll be a sufficient distraction
			if I get the Masterwork item or leave early for some reason
				if there's still plenty of time, meet up with Matthew in the Classroom
					follow the instruction for that room later in this Action PM
				if time's running out, go to the Northeast Stockpile room
					take whatever looks good (hooray for the makeshift sack!)
					continue looting Stockpile rooms clockwise until Action Phase ends
					at Jim's last room, leave the Ponyo DVD
			if the round ends
				just go back to his room
	if Matthew doesn't split up, or Jim doesn't have to wait around:
		after the Ordeal, follow Matthew to the Classroom
		search for paper and pencil, or some kinda writing instrument
			even a whiteboard and marker lol
			anything to communicate easily with Isabelle
		just kinda guard Matthew, break up fights i suppose. Maybe go for a kill if we're clearly winning
		near the end of the Action Phase, Matthew and I stab each other in the arm with my Bowie Knife
			enough to be Major, that's all. Just to clear the global objective and not get a death mark
	if there's a quick minute to spare on the way back to my room
		run to the southwest storage room
			throw Ponyo in it
	return to my room

overarching guidelines:
	if things go fantastically off the rails:
		do the mutual Major injury with someone else ASAP
			that's the highest priority this round
			if Jim hasn't cleared that objective and he's all by himself:
				go to his room early but hang out outside the door
				try to find someone willing to help as they return back home
					like Matthew, Isabella, or Pipete
		try to tell Matthew (or perhaps an ally like Isabella or Pipete) to find some paper and pencil if they can
			especially if visiting the Classroom
	if Jim ever knocks out someone, don't forget to loot an item
		in priority: Masterwork, Augmentation voucher, weapon, whatever else
		if pressed for time, just take whatever's quickest to make off with
	if the lights ever go out:
		bust out my Stage Assistant. It's got a spotlight feature, so it can be a jank flashlight in a pinch

Player relationships:

Allies:
	Matthew
		seems loyal, perhaps not dependable. We'll see
		he's going with me to Dorms
			he'll do the shower, i'll do the ordeal and searching
		then the plan's to visit the Classroom
			he'll try to write an essay, time allowing
			i'll just kinda hang around
		lastly, we'll mutually Major wound each other to avoid the failure Death Mark
		all in all, Jim's placing quite a bit of trust in him
	Isabelle
		got a good partnership going with her
		muteness may be a problem during Action Phase
		she's planning to stop by all 3 rooms
			might run into her at some point
	Pipere
		on good terms with her too
		she's an acrobat, so Jim's confident she can escape any sticky situations
		she's planning to look around for an empty room
Questionable:
	Young Moolah
		not much to know about her
		she seems formal, so she sounds open to cooperation?
			Jim estimates good odds of getting along with her
Enemies:
	Giovanni, Ulricha, Enzo
		these 3 voted Jim to take the Death Mark
			so their teamwork is anywhere from "on speaking terms" to "a well-oiled unit"
			and Jim was either "unlucky target" or "specifically gonna fuck him up"
			none of these options are good
		plus they just seem angry in general
		if any of them are in the general vicinity, be on high alert
Miscellaneous
	Dog / Roomba
		???
		really dislikes Pipere???
	April
		actually the host???
		but *actually* an AI controlling a random girl???
	Hoss
		chill! super cool and helpful
	Galatea
		weird and foreboding
		apparently gone for good?
