  1. Aug 26 20:06:25 <@zoofarrator> Last we left off, you guys were in a Forensics lab including: A camera on a tripod looking at a currently clean disection table. Four cadavers: A Siren, a young man and woman with Nidoking/queen like traits, and another young male that looks like something from Planet of the Infernapes. An office on the upper floor, with a being with qualities of both Emboar and man in a glassed off cell.
  2. Aug 26 20:06:38 <@zoofarrator> He had been asleep, but as Rosetta approached, suddenly awoke.
  3. Aug 26 20:07:43 »» Chase is hanging at the bottom of the stairs, trying not to look over at the bodies. He's keeping an eye on things with aura and bites his lip as the figure he was watching stirs. He gets ready to act, not yet realizing it's not the scientist dude Gen mentioned.
  4. Aug 26 20:08:14 <Rosetta> "Uh, shit." Rosetta slips back down to the others. She waves and tries to catch Gen's and Saryx's attention if they haven't noticed.
  5. Aug 26 20:09:03 »» Genevieve gets up from the cadavers and heads upstairs. "What?"
  6. Aug 26 20:09:17 »» Chase follows up there, too. "...oh. Oh, shit."
  7. Aug 26 20:11:03 <Saryx> Up until Rosetta'd grabbed Saryx' attention, he'd been waaay completely fixated in the 'holyshitthisiswherethesethingshavebeencomingfrom?!?' kind of way. The pulling of his attention away from it was much greatly appreciated. "Y-yeah... Coming, Razor." A glance down at the cadaver once more before he, too, follows upstairs.
  8. Aug 26 20:11:10 <@zoofarrator> This creature is, for lack of better words, orcish in appearance. Broad arms and shoulders, slightly hunched, a head that is mostly human aside from the snout and protuding fangs. It's red skin has a leathery texture to it.
  9. Aug 26 20:12:23 »» Genevieve peers at it through the glass. "Looks like one he hasn't cut open yet."
  10. Aug 26 20:12:32 <@zoofarrator> The fiery mane around its bare, muscular chest flickers. Each arm ends in a fist that could easily crush skulls. It seems all it's wearing is a blackened loincloth.
  11. Aug 26 20:13:19 »» Chase approaches the containment cell, a worried expression on his face. "These sick bastards are going too far. Hey. Hey, you in there. Can you hear me? Can you -understand- me?"
  12. Aug 26 20:13:43 <Rosetta> "Careful, we don't know what they might've already done to this guy."
  13. Aug 26 20:15:12 <Genevieve> "Maybe you should use your cool cross species telepathy."
  14. Aug 26 20:15:16 <@zoofarrator> It grunts and shuffles around its cell, sniffing the air and inspecting you all.
  15. Aug 26 20:15:30 <@zoofarrator> If Zodiac is around, it snarls and withdraws to a corner.
  16. Aug 26 20:15:32 <Chase> "I'm waiting to see if this works, first."
  17. Aug 26 20:16:19 <Chase> "...guess not."
  18. Aug 26 20:16:57 <Chase> "This must be one of the ones from the island, then..."
  19. Aug 26 20:17:13 <Genevieve> "So a hybrid rather than a shifter?"
  20. Aug 26 20:17:27 <Chase> "Hell if I know. I'm going to try aura."
  21. Aug 26 20:17:46 <Rosetta> "Easy." Rosetta beckons Zodiac behind her, so as not to further startle the man.
  22. Aug 26 20:18:22 »» Chase throws up his aura reading, and reaches out with his mind. <We're not with the ones that did this to you. Are you alright?>
  23. Aug 26 20:18:44 <Chase> <Can you understand this?>
  24. Aug 26 20:21:23 <Saryx> "... Hey, Chase? You sure you should be standing all too close to the glass right this second?" Saryx calls over to him from a distance that at least seems much safer than Chase's from the manbeast.
  25. Aug 26 20:21:26 <@zoofarrator> It seems startled by the sudden noise, looking around, not sure what the source was. It seems both surprised and hopeful, and begins to shout. Doesn't sound like Pokemon calls as much as primitive human language, but is unbelievably loud.
  26. Aug 26 20:23:16 <Rosetta> "Oh geez, please tell me you're making some sorta progress with this thing?"
  27. Aug 26 20:24:13 <Chase> <Whoa, whoa, calm down! I'm the one speaking to you. The man at the glass.> He waves to make sure this gets across. <We're going to try to help you, but we need you to calm down and stop yelling.>
  28. Aug 26 20:24:49 <Chase> "I'm... not really sure. I think maybe he gets the -gist- of what I'm auraing, but..."
  29. Aug 26 20:25:10 <Rosetta> "But?"
  30. Aug 26 20:25:25 <Chase> "He's startled, but there's -hope- there too. I can't understand what he's trying to get across, though."
  31. Aug 26 20:26:13 <@zoofarrator> He stops to yell when he catches your eye, and walks up to the glass, looking down at you. He's easily eight feet tall, and seems doubtful of your claims.
  32. Aug 26 20:26:23 »» Chase thinks a moment...
  33. Aug 26 20:26:30 <@zoofarrator> Rest of you - perception
  34. Aug 26 20:26:45 <Rosetta> 3d6+1 aw yeah look at my shiny new perception rank
  35. Aug 26 20:27:01 ---» DiceMaid-9001 (DiceMaid-9@sux-EADD5C74) has Joined #easternislesrhapsody
  36. Aug 26 20:27:08 <Rosetta> 3d6+1
  37. Aug 26 20:27:08 <DiceMaid-9001> Rosetta, 3d6+1: 16 [3d6=6,6,3]
  38. Aug 26 20:27:12 <Genevieve> 2d6+3
  39. Aug 26 20:27:13 <DiceMaid-9001> Genevieve, 2d6+3: 10 [2d6=3,4]
  40. Aug 26 20:27:30 <Saryx> 4d6+1 I perceive Chase may be leaving this place in a stretcher
  41. Aug 26 20:27:30 <DiceMaid-9001> Saryx, I perceive Chase may be leaving this place in a stretcher: 13 [4d6=1,3,6,2]
  42. Aug 26 20:28:00 <@zoofarrator> Only Rosetta catches it - a blip of light that wasn't there a bit ago from your peripheral.
  43. Aug 26 20:29:24 »» Rosetta whirls around toward the light.
  44. Aug 26 20:29:55 <@zoofarrator> There's a computer on a desk up here - and on top of the monitor, a web cam. It's got a green light on it.
  45. Aug 26 20:30:17 »» Aori_Radisleep is now known as Aori_Radidjiu
  46. Aug 26 20:30:47 <Rosetta> "Shit, someone's watchin' this." Rosetta hops over with a teleport and shuts it off.
  47. Aug 26 20:30:59 »» Chase then on a wild hunch, pulls out his wallet and shows the beastman a picture of Alicia. <Do you recognize her? This is an image of my sister.>
  48. Aug 26 20:32:50 <@zoofarrator> Rosetta dashes over to disable the camera - easy enough to unplug it or throw something over it.
  49. Aug 26 20:32:58 »» Chase looks over at Rose. "How long you think we got?"
  50. Aug 26 20:33:32 <Rosetta> "Shit, I dunno, probably 10 or 15 minutes tops with how filled this city is with Grant's guys. Can we call for backup?"
  51. Aug 26 20:33:50 <Chase> "We need help to get everything out of here anyway - might be wise."
  52. Aug 26 20:34:31 <Genevieve> "Sure. We can probably keep it shut long enough for help to get here. How's the beastman doing?"
  53. Aug 26 20:35:02 »» Chase is waiting for a reaction. - He knows the ones on the island may revere his sister, so this could probably confirm a thing or two.
  54. Aug 26 20:36:02 <@zoofarrator> The emboarish man seems rather perplexed with the photograph. As for why is hard to say.
  55. Aug 26 20:36:50 <Chase> Maybe he doesn't get it. Oh, well. He tucks the photo away, and looks at the others. "I don't think he's sure whether to trust us or not."
  56. Aug 26 20:37:24 »» Genevieve walks over to the computer to see if she can get access. "That's fine. As long as he doesn't plan on attacking us as soon as he's out."
  57. Aug 26 20:37:42 <Rosetta> "Well, that's not really our biggest problem right now. Can Chione get here or send someone quickly? Who else is in town right now?"
  58. Aug 26 20:38:27 <@zoofarrator> Genevieve notices the app for the web cam has 'active viewers' toggle from 1 to 0 as she shakes it awake. What's she looking for?
  59. Aug 26 20:38:55 <@zoofarrator> And you guys, roll me intuition
  60. Aug 26 20:39:01 <Genevieve> Door controls for the cage.
  61. Aug 26 20:39:02 <Chase> 6d6+6
  62. Aug 26 20:39:02 <DiceMaid-9001> Chase, 6d6+6: 37 [6d6=6,4,6,5,5,5]
  63. Aug 26 20:39:05 <Genevieve> 2d6+1
  64. Aug 26 20:39:05 <DiceMaid-9001> Genevieve, 2d6+1: 9 [2d6=2,6]
  65. Aug 26 20:39:36 <Rosetta> 1d6-1 do I still need to roll this?
  66. Aug 26 20:39:37 <DiceMaid-9001> Rosetta, do I still need to roll this?: 4 [1d6=5]
  67. Aug 26 20:40:03 <Saryx> 4d6+2 ... What she said.
  68. Aug 26 20:40:03 <DiceMaid-9001> Saryx, ... What she said.: 15 [4d6=2,6,1,4]
  69. Aug 26 20:41:04 <@zoofarrator> Rosetta wonders what a birdgirl would look like, and nothing really crosses Saryx and Gen's mind, but Chase, you get a feeling this thing would flip if it saw those cadavers as they were.
  70. Aug 26 20:41:33 <@zoofarrator> I mean after all, it's been up here the whole time and you got no idea what it's heard. It can't actually -see- what's down there from here.
  71. Aug 26 20:41:35 <Chase> "Someone go down and shut the lockers downstairs."
  72. Aug 26 20:41:49 <Chase> "He doesn't need to see all of that."
  73. Aug 26 20:42:46 <Saryx> "We got Jeremiah, right? ... And what about that person you went to go see, Razor? Any chance we can call on them? ... I can go shut those things real quick, though, Chase." And should no one else petition to go instead, he'll head down and do just that.
  74. Aug 26 20:43:18 <@zoofarrator> Genevieve pokes around and finds the controls sure enough - seems there were also numbing gas options and such to knock them out, feeding options, cleaning...but to simply open the door is just a button press.
  75. Aug 26 20:44:18 »» Genevieve dials up Chione while she searches through the computer. "Good thinking."
  76. Aug 26 20:44:50 <@zoofarrator> Chione picks up. "You win yet?"
  77. Aug 26 20:44:52 <Rosetta> "I dunno if I wanna get Mikhail dragged into this. He seemed pretty 'what the fuck even' about everything else surrounding Corbin's case already."
  78. Aug 26 20:45:23 <Genevieve> "Almost. Got a live beastman I want to get out of here, but someone saw us get in. Wanna run extraction?"
  79. Aug 26 20:46:15 <@zoofarrator> "Oh fuck a ducklett. Well good thing The Moon Wardens just got here - on the way!"
  80. Aug 26 20:46:35 <Genevieve> "Thanks, I'll try to keep everyone from dying in the meantime bye!"
  81. Aug 26 20:46:36 <Chase> "The computers, too." he calls over, then looks at the Emboardude again. <We're about to let you out. We need you to stay close to us.>
  82. Aug 26 20:46:47 <Genevieve> "Ready?"
  83. Aug 26 20:47:05 »» Chase nods. "Yeah, go ahead."
  84. Aug 26 20:47:44 »» Genevieve presses the open door button once Saryx returns from the cadavers.
  85. Aug 26 20:48:24 <Chase> "Miracle Eye is gonna flip."
  86. Aug 26 20:48:39 <@zoofarrator> There's a pressure release, and the glass slides into the wall.
  87. Aug 26 20:49:32 »» Rosetta tenses up and holds her breath as they let this guy out.
  88. Aug 26 20:50:07 <Chase> "Thanks, Saryx."
  89. Aug 26 20:50:25 <@zoofarrator> The massive being steps forward, continuing to sniff the air. Its face puckers at the scent of formaldehyde in here, but simply continues to watch. He seems rather intent on not getting close to Rosetta.
  90. Aug 26 20:50:45 <Chase> "You might want to put away Zodiac just in case, think you're making him nervous..."
  91. Aug 26 20:51:00 »» Genevieve waves for the Emboarc to follow. "Come on, we at least have to get somewhere with a chokepoint."
  92. Aug 26 20:51:15 »» Chase heads back down the stairs!
  93. Aug 26 20:51:45 »» Rosetta nods and recalls Zodiac, then raises her hands at the man-creature to try to show she means no harm.
  94. Aug 26 20:52:57 <@zoofarrator> You all head down and out into the data room again. The Emborc lumbers along behind you, keeping a slight distance and taking in the sights around it.
  95. Aug 26 20:54:26 <@zoofarrator> As it steps through the doorway last, the Unown on the touch panel opens and looks around.
  96. Aug 26 20:55:36 »» Rosetta quickly releases Zodiac again, though is careful to keep him away from the emboar man.
  97. Aug 26 20:55:49 <@zoofarrator> The two's eyes meet, and the Emborc yelps in surprise and rage, swinging a fist into the panel...and completely concaves it and the Unown in.
  98. Aug 26 20:55:54 <Chase> "...damn, right, that."
  99. Aug 26 20:56:04 <@zoofarrator> ...And then an alarm goes off.
  100. Aug 26 20:56:10 <Rosetta> "Fuck."
  101. Aug 26 20:57:04 <Chase> "We need to hold the place until we can get extraction in, we've pulled too much to loose whatever's in the pcs."
  102. Aug 26 20:58:05 <Rosetta> "Yeah, I get it. Let's see if we can find a good defensive position to hold."
  103. Aug 26 20:58:24 <@zoofarrator> From the cieling opens small canisters that drop Pokeballs. They pop open, and out come several Porygon-Z's, coated in Unowns. They look more like the shape of a Porygon covered in black eyes at this point.
  104. Aug 26 20:58:37 <Chase> "...called it."
  105. Aug 26 20:58:42 <Chase> "Fuck."
  106. Aug 26 20:58:46 <Chase> "That shit is CREEPY."
  107. Aug 26 20:58:56 <Genevieve> "That's horrible."
  108. Aug 26 20:59:30 <@zoofarrator> One goes for the servers, one starts heading for the computer room, another -wants- to go past the Emborc, but he's in the doorway. The other four converge on you.
  109. Aug 26 20:59:43 <Rosetta> "Shit, they're gonna wipe the computers."
  110. Aug 26 20:59:59 <Rosetta> "I'll head off that one, you guys handle these."
  111. Aug 26 20:59:59 »» Chase tosses out a pokeball, and lets out, let's say Elise.
  112. Aug 26 21:00:02 <Genevieve> "That one's all yours, Rose."
  113. Aug 26 21:00:37 <Saryx> "Maaan, I don't think we're gonna be able to stop 'em all too fast! ... Think I can at least stop the one heading for the computers real quick!" Can Saryx use an Interrupt action now? He's still got his Pursuit he swiped.
  114. Aug 26 21:00:39 »» Rosetta nods and dashes after it with Dolore.
  115. Aug 26 21:01:00 <@zoofarrator> Gonna need iniatives!
  116. Aug 26 21:01:13 <Rosetta> Rosetta at 34, Dolore at 27
  117. Aug 26 21:01:15 <Chase> Chase 12, Elise 23
  118. Aug 26 21:01:18 <@zoofarrator> You can interrupt when combat starts!
  119. Aug 26 21:01:30 <Genevieve> Gen 14, Fourier 7, Wheeler 3
  120. Aug 26 21:01:45 <Genevieve> Actually, scratch Fourier, he's out but not in combat :x
  121. Aug 26 21:01:58 <Saryx> Saryx 30 (Didn't mark it on my sheet yet, but taking Soul Shuffle), and Jarl 13
  122. Aug 26 21:02:30 <Chase> <Enemies.> he calls out to the Emboar. <But try not to break anything besides them, okay?>

  124. Aug 26 21:04:10 <Saryx> >Poryown
  125. Aug 26 21:04:29 »» Rosetta starts off by lashing at the Porygon-Z with her chain, electrifying it.
  126. Aug 26 21:04:30 <Rosetta> 1d20
  127. Aug 26 21:04:30 <DiceMaid-9001> Rosetta, 1d20: 20 [1d20=20]
  128. Aug 26 21:04:35 <Saryx> ... Well this isn't going to be pleasant is it? (Also you forgot Saryx in the initiative.)
  129. Aug 26 21:04:37 <@zoofarrator> There's a Poryown heading for each of the big computer bits here. One wants into the forensics lab, which is blocked. Another needs just one round to reach the servers, another needs two rounds to reach the PC's.
  130. Aug 26 21:04:45 »» zoofarrator has changed the topic to: Rosetta > Saryx > Dolore > Hacker Poryown-zx3 > Elise > Emborc > Combat Poryown-zx4 > Gen > Jarl > Chase > Wheeler | http://www.listenonrepeat.com/watch/?v=VoaUYcwEpSw
  131. Aug 26 21:05:03 <Rosetta> 6d8+20+25 electric damage and flinched
  132. Aug 26 21:05:04 <DiceMaid-9001> Rosetta, electric damage and flinched: 77 [6d8=2,6,8,7,8,1]
  133. Aug 26 21:05:37 <Rosetta> Dolore looks to the one heading to the servers and glares it down. Mean Look. Trapped and Slowed.
  134. Aug 26 21:05:59 <Chase> "Shit, are they Normal like Porygons or Psychic like Unowns? Both?"
  135. Aug 26 21:06:08 <Rosetta> (or whoops guess Saryx goes before Dolore)
  136. Aug 26 21:06:22 <Genevieve> "Dessoir isn't out, just guess!"
  137. Aug 26 21:07:08 <Saryx> "One way to find out!" Saryx lunges forth for the Porygon fleeing to the PCs. Pursuit!
  138. Aug 26 21:07:11 <@zoofarrator> Which one did she hit, for reference? It's stopped in its tracks, but these things are...pretty durable looking.

  145. Aug 26 21:08:45 <Chase> Oh, I thought Rose was going after the one heading to the PCs
  146. Aug 26 21:08:57 <@zoofarrator> Saryx bops it, and even if it seems super effect, it's a pretty durable Pokemon!
  147. Aug 26 21:09:30 <Rosetta> (well, the one going to the servers is closer, when I thought it was the other way around)
  148. Aug 26 21:09:41 <Genevieve> HOLD IT!

  566. Aug 26 22:33:31 <@zoofarrator> She drags Annette with her for good measure, cause Annette's just as perplexed as she is. UPROAR shrugs and sizes up this guy.
  567. Aug 26 22:33:39 <@zoofarrator> "YOU TRY CATCHIN' HIM YET?"
  568. Aug 26 22:33:45 <Rosetta> "Man, what else has Grant got hidden in this city? The factory and now this."
  569. Aug 26 22:34:41 <Chase> "Man the hell's wrong with you? Or with everyone who's been sayin' that lately?" he says to Uproar, HOPING it's a joke, but he shakes his head.
  570. Aug 26 22:34:44 <@zoofarrator> Chione finally snaps out of it and prods Cherry Boy to start working on those computers. "What do you mean by buddies?"
  571. Aug 26 22:34:48 <@zoofarrator> "What the fuck is this place?"
  572. Aug 26 22:34:49 <Saryx> "... Iiiii don't think that'd be any likely to work, Uproar." He kind of shakes his head at the thought. "He's still a person. ... Isn't he?"
  573. Aug 26 22:35:53 <Rosetta> "Let's not try it."
  574. Aug 26 22:35:54 <@zoofarrator> UPROAR: "WHAT? I WAS CURIOUS. IF IT WORKS HOW MUCH YOU WANNA BET THEY GOT FOLKS CARRYIN' AROUND THESE GUYS?"
  575. Aug 26 22:35:57 <Chase> "It seems to be both... an intelligence HQ for them to spy on us and whoever else is a POI to Grant, as well as... experimenting on people like him." he points to the emborc.
  576. Aug 26 22:36:00 <Saryx> ... Okay, now he's kind of curious, and begins pondering if this is even a possibility, given what little he knows about PokeBalls. ... Permission to make an Edu: Tech roll?
  577. Aug 26 22:36:06 <@zoofarrator> Miracle Eye: "I wouldn't put it past them either."
  578. Aug 26 22:36:09 <Rosetta> "I figure it doesn't though."
  579. Aug 26 22:36:22 <Rosetta> "Cause why wouldn't these guys put him in a ball if it worked?"
  580. Aug 26 22:36:44 <Chase> "And, well... don't let him see them, but there are more like him back there. They... didn't make it."
  581. Aug 26 22:36:47 <@zoofarrator> You can -try- at least Saryx
  582. Aug 26 22:37:15 <Saryx> "It's probably a lot easier to monitor his behavior when he's not in a PokeBall is why, Razor. 'sides, I'd think they'd have something to contain him if he got any riled up."
  583. Aug 26 22:37:22 <Saryx> 3d6+1 Trying~
  584. Aug 26 22:37:23 <Genevieve> "Yeah, this guy from school did some autopsies."
  585. Aug 26 22:37:23 <DiceMaid-9001> Saryx, Trying~: 11 [3d6=5,3,2]
  586. Aug 26 22:38:16 <Chase> "The 'bookish dude' who got away? I bet he's the same guy who's been at work here. Dr. David Langlias, was it?"
  587. Aug 26 22:38:55 <@zoofarrator> Pokemon are naturally volatile creatuers. It's why when they evolve they turn into energy before reforming, and is the basis of how a Pokeball stores them.
  588. Aug 26 22:39:30 <@zoofarrator> This is something humans don't share with them biologicaly.
  589. Aug 26 22:40:10 <Genevieve> "Him, yeah."
  590. Aug 26 22:40:53 <@zoofarrator> Miracle Eye gulps at that. "Would you mind me...examining this? I think we'll need to make use of those empty crates upstairs to relocate those if we don't wish for this to get much bigger than it already has."
  591. Aug 26 22:41:01 <Saryx> After a moment he speaks on his thoughts. "... Yeah, considering he was probably what those Trubbish saw banging around in the box he's probably too human to turn into energy for the balling process."
  592. Aug 26 22:41:18 <@zoofarrator> "UPROAR, just. Well if they got more people down here help haul them to the Peacekeeper's station."
  593. Aug 26 22:42:55 »» Chase nods at Miracle Eye.
  594. Aug 26 22:44:30 »» Genevieve approaches the Emborc to give him a closer look.
  595. Aug 26 22:44:54 <Chase> "Alright, let's clean up, down here. I'll work with our friend here and keep him calm and away from you working. There was another thing I need to run by you, too..." he quickly and quietly explains the guy he found and the meeting he set up.
  596. Aug 26 22:44:56 <@zoofarrator> He seems to be taking this one step at a time. He's calm, at the least.
  597. Aug 26 22:45:36 »» Genevieve looks through her bag and takes out her last packet of Bait, which she opens and hands to him. "Take this."
  598. Aug 26 22:46:05 <@zoofarrator> He looks at it, sniffs, and starts eating it.
  599. Aug 26 22:46:21 <Rosetta> "Gen, really?" Rosetta thinks for a moment though. "...Do you think he'd like soda? Or would the carbonation bother him?"
  600. Aug 26 22:46:49 »» Chase looks over. "Let's try and stay away from soda and alcohol for the time being, yeah?"
  601. Aug 26 22:47:01 <Genevieve> "Anthropologically speaking, sharing food is one of the most effective ways to build bonds."
  602. Aug 26 22:48:31 <@zoofarrator> Would you guys like to fast forward a bit till you get everything, including your buddy here, back up to Chione's crib?
  603. Aug 26 22:48:36 <Chase> Sure thing.
  604. Aug 26 22:48:43 <Genevieve> Yes.
  605. Aug 26 22:49:02 <Rosetta> Yep.
  606. Aug 26 22:50:26 <@zoofarrator> Alright, you guys get back up there, the thugs in a slammer, the guys that were in the bunker in custody, Melinda still kidnapped and bound somewhere around Gen's place, the bodies and computers relocated, and UPROAR had the hilarious idea to disguise this guy as his brother and sneak him up to Chione's place. He's been given some space to chill out and some food to eat.
  607. Aug 26 22:51:13 <@zoofarrator> In the mean time you got a very confused Chione, Dahlia, Annette, and UPROAR. Miracle Eye less so, but they all want to hear everything you guys have been up to one more time. What, from the stuff you collected, are you most interested in prying into immediately?
  608. Aug 26 22:52:41 <Rosetta> "I don't like whatever these guys are doing on the 16th. We should dive into the files on these computers and see if there's anything on that shit, yeah?"
  609. Aug 26 22:52:58 <Genevieve> "It seems like the most pressing issue, barring Emborc."
  610. Aug 26 22:53:15 <Chase> "'Emborc'? Is that what you're calling him?"
  611. Aug 26 22:53:35 <@zoofarrator> Annette: "Does he have a name? If not can we give him one???"
  612. Aug 26 22:53:59 <Chase> "Sure, why don't you start thinking of some?"
  613. Aug 26 22:54:00 <Saryx> "Yeah! If there's anything we can find out about it, we could hopefully stop something real bad from happening."
  614. Aug 26 22:54:15 <@zoofarrator> Chione agrees with Rosetta and gets Cherry Boy to partition the information in a way you guys can navigate it. These guys had...a lot of information on all of you.
  615. Aug 26 22:54:28 <Chase> "Well, anyway yeah. So Grant's been keeping tabs on us since before we even formed our group - I'm curious as hell what he's got on us, but they're apparently about to pull something."
  616. Aug 26 22:55:32 <@zoofarrator> Years and years back of pictures, social media postings, articles, almost any digital footprint any of you had was recorded on those servers. And not just you, a lot of Explorers, Rangers, ranking officials.
  617. Aug 26 22:55:48 <Rosetta> "The factory's pretty pressing. Did I mention they were teleporting in tanks from Russia and using the place as a base to teleport recruits to training sites? Cause they are. Also, their computers had a lot of shit on the structure of their organization. Chione, did you get a look at any of that?"
  618. Aug 26 22:56:32 <@zoofarrator> On Melinda's computer in particular, was a fairly new zip file called '2lewd4saryx.'
  619. Aug 26 22:57:20 <@zoofarrator> Chione nodnods. "Ayup. These guys didn't seem to have much on that though. Seems they were mostly in touch with the folks at that factory eh?"
  620. Aug 26 22:57:41 <Chase> "Holy fuck, this is..."
  621. Aug 26 22:57:57 <Saryx> Saryx already was freaking out and covering up the photos of him in a dinky, little, handsewn Dratini costume that looks like an eleven-year old made it when those popped up on the computer. He's absolutely horrified by the prospect of what's in there, probably begging Chione not to pop that one open.
  622. Aug 26 22:58:28 <Chase> "You know that's just going to make her more curious, right?"
  623. Aug 26 22:58:59 <Genevieve> "Even though it's totally irrelevant."
  624. Aug 26 22:59:13 <@zoofarrator> As for the information on the 16th, what you find is rather clear : These guys were in email coorespondance with the folks at the factory via an encrypted network, and one of the more recent ones read. "Saturday the 16th - Boss wants his toy back from Darkfeather. We strike." - Preacherman.
  625. Aug 26 22:59:17 <Rosetta> "You know, I'm pretty curious too."
  626. Aug 26 22:59:34 <@zoofarrator> Chione raises an eyebrow. "Why shouldn't I?"
  627. Aug 26 22:59:39 <@zoofarrator> On a more serious note.
  628. Aug 26 22:59:43 <@zoofarrator> It wasn't just you they had tabs on.
  629. Aug 26 23:00:24 <@zoofarrator> There were a lot of records on Dandyman, sightings and such. As well as for Jennifer. Though they seemed to have had Genevieve and her confused. Jennifer, from the looks of it, can pull off quite an impressive impersionation of Genevieve.
  630. Aug 26 23:00:43 <Genevieve> "What a surprise."
  631. Aug 26 23:01:39 <Rosetta> "That's scary. We oughta create some sorta password we can use so we know it's you." Rosetta's in SPY MOVIE mode again.
  632. Aug 26 23:01:42 <Chase> "So when should we set up some kind of failsafe in case she kidnaps you and tries to take your place?"
  633. Aug 26 23:01:48 »» Chase looks at Rose.
  634. Aug 26 23:01:52 »» Rosetta looks at Chase.
  635. Aug 26 23:02:18 <@zoofarrator> From their records it indicates did indeed come from Jennifer at some point, but the deals went sour when either side's intentions came to light. It seems she originally contracted one from New Horizons and...completely recreated it without tampering with the first one. As such, Genevieve's sorta got a black list from the place due to the suspicion of her being the root of a lot o the black market knockoffs of the
  636. Aug 26 23:02:18 <@zoofarrator> products. There's no concrete proof of this.
  637. Aug 26 23:03:49 <@zoofarrator> They also had tabs on suspected Keeper's Cult members, including Husk Rhasha. Outer God followers were off their raydar, a nonissue. These guys seemed keenly interested in Father Ruth and The Stag Lords. This interest was rather recent.
  638. Aug 26 23:04:05 <Saryx> Err, covering up the screen when those photos popped up. "... Because... Because it's not like I need anything else for you guys to tease me about :< I don't even know what could be in there, and from how Melinda made that comment earlier I don't want anyone else finding out." ... On a more serious note, he's curious about the mention of a 'toy' in Darkfeather. "... What
  639. Aug 26 23:04:05 <Saryx> exactly do you think they'd be looking for in Darkfeather? 'Toy' could mean a whole lot of things. ... It's waaay vague."
  640. Aug 26 23:04:17 <Rosetta> "Yanala."
  641. Aug 26 23:04:36 <@zoofarrator> The creepiest bit of this intel, though? Their dandyman stuff.
  642. Aug 26 23:04:45 <@zoofarrator> Fun news, guys. You're in most the pictures of the Dandyman sightings.
  643. Aug 26 23:04:50 <Rosetta> "We've gotta get her moved and maybe I should take the next few days to see what I can do to remove that shit from her."
  644. Aug 26 23:05:10 <Saryx> "... Oh, right... Her. ... Didn't think about that one all too much." ... And what? . . . What?!?
  645. Aug 26 23:05:22 »» Rosetta shivers as she looks through the Dandyman pictures. "That's just fucked up."
  646. Aug 26 23:05:34 <@zoofarrator> All the way back to when that little doll did the harlem shake and the corpse dolls appeared, Dandyman's in the background of a security camera, watching.
  647. Aug 26 23:05:36 <Rosetta> "Is this what Corbin was going through? Being stalked by this guy everywhere until he stepped too far?"
  648. Aug 26 23:05:38 <Rosetta> "Fuck."
  649. Aug 26 23:05:58 <Saryx> Saryx is staring at those pictures so hard. "... He's been that close to us the whole time and we never noticed?!?"
  650. Aug 26 23:06:04 <Genevieve> "How are we not catching this."
  651. Aug 26 23:06:08 <@zoofarrator> In New Ivyhollow. Shawyun bringing pizzas to the old guild hall you were staying at. Dandyman, in the background.
  652. Aug 26 23:07:03 <@zoofarrator> In Veilbeak, registering at the Wild Arena, Dandyman in the crowd behind you.
  653. Aug 26 23:07:06 <@zoofarrator> He doesn't appear in Darkfeather.
  654. Aug 26 23:07:21 <@zoofarrator> Each of the picture has him with a finger to the lisps of his mask.
  655. Aug 26 23:07:59 <@zoofarrator> These guys speculated on that themselves, Genevieve, their guess? "It's like pictures of haunted houses when you only see the Ghost Pokemon in the pictures maybe?"
  656. Aug 26 23:08:38 <Genevieve> 4d6+3
  657. Aug 26 23:08:38 <DiceMaid-9001> Genevieve, 4d6+3: 17 [4d6=3,2,6,3]
  658. Aug 26 23:08:44 <Genevieve> "What, like Fatal Frame?"
  659. Aug 26 23:09:29 <@zoofarrator> All of the others looking over this are quite confused themselves. UPROAR speaks up. "ISN'T IT FUCKIN' OBVIOUS?"
  660. Aug 26 23:09:43 <@zoofarrator> "HE DOESN'T WALK AROUND WITH THE MASK ON AND NO ONE KNOWS WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE WITHOUT IT."
  661. Aug 26 23:09:47 «--- Aori_Radidjiu ([email protected]) has Quit (Ping timeout)
  662. Aug 26 23:10:25 »» Chase frowns.
  663. Aug 26 23:10:31 <Genevieve> "And it'd be hard to find out without confronting him directly."
  664. Aug 26 23:10:37 <Rosetta> "So the mask only shows up in photos?"
  665. Aug 26 23:10:49 <Rosetta> "And video I guess."
  666. Aug 26 23:11:00 <@zoofarrator> "HELL IF I KNOW. HAVEN'T SEEN HIM."
  667. Aug 26 23:11:04 <Genevieve> "We haven't met him in person, after all. It's possible."
  668. Aug 26 23:11:16 <Genevieve> "A defense against having his identity revealed."
  669. Aug 26 23:11:34 <Chase> "Are you saying Corbin saw something else in person?"
  670. Aug 26 23:12:16 »» Genevieve shrugs.
  671. Aug 26 23:12:21 <@zoofarrator> Aside from this, there's notes on The Drift and what's there.
  672. Aug 26 23:12:23 »» Chase scratches his head. "Hell, man. This is beyond me."
  673. Aug 26 23:13:13 <Rosetta> "Shit, maybe he has notes on what Dandyman looks like in person. We've gotta step up looking for his flash drives."
  674. Aug 26 23:13:42 <@zoofarrator> They have very little intel on what you know as Cherubs, just that Dandyman certainly does have child soldiers who assist him.
  675. Aug 26 23:13:58 <@zoofarrator> These little bastards have a 100% kill rate with any Sons that have encountered them. They got nothing.
  676. Aug 26 23:14:07 <Saryx> "Or maybe he told Yanala what Dandyman looks like? ... Would mean getting her fixed up is even more important if that's a possibility."
  677. Aug 26 23:14:13 <Chase> "At least we're ahead of them on -something-"
  678. Aug 26 23:14:17 <@zoofarrator> They do know that there's a new model of his Wanga dolls in The Drift. Bigger, faster, more durable.
  679. Aug 26 23:14:34 <Chase> "Wait. Waaait."
  680. Aug 26 23:14:38 »» Chase taps at this.
  681. Aug 26 23:14:43 <@zoofarrator> They also know Jennifer has Mewtwos. They have no idea who or what Genesis was, just that she was at one point with Rosetta and Genevieve.
  682. Aug 26 23:15:18 <Chase> "...nah on second thought that doesn't make much sense, does it..."
  683. Aug 26 23:15:27 <Genevieve> "What?"
  684. Aug 26 23:15:28 <Chase> "I was thinking maybe this had something to do with the robot killer, but..."
  685. Aug 26 23:15:55 <@zoofarrator> These guys don't know how the Wanga Dolls work either. They were mostly recon and supernatural shit, as well as pscionics, often seems to stump them.
  686. Aug 26 23:15:57 <Chase> "Nevermind."
  687. Aug 26 23:16:24 <@zoofarrator> I'll take a short break from this before the real bombshell. The videos on that tripod camera.
  688. Aug 26 23:17:13 <Rosetta> "I think my next few days better be spent with trying to get the Unowns off of Yanala." Rosetta sighs.
  689. Aug 26 23:17:42 <@zoofarrator> Dahlia seems unusually focused throughout all of this, whispering to Miracle Eye here and there. "'Old a minute. So Grant's got recruihter's n' the hood, n' Dandy's got folks too? What'll it take fo' us to strike first?"
  690. Aug 26 23:18:19 <@zoofarrator> Miracle Eye taps her chin. "We could relocate her, perhaps?"
  691. Aug 26 23:18:34 <@zoofarrator> "To a more defendable location."
  692. Aug 26 23:18:47 <Genevieve> "All we really need is a plan and we can strike whenever."
  693. Aug 26 23:18:58 <Genevieve> "And maybe a way to make sure Emborc doesn't wander off."
  694. Aug 26 23:20:21 <Chase> "If we're not careful this is going to erupt into a goddamn war."
  695. Aug 26 23:20:37 <@zoofarrator> Annette: "Why not...take him home then? Where did they even find him?"
  696. Aug 26 23:20:42 <Saryx> Saryx nods in agreement with Gen. "He's real strong, and I don't think it'd take a whole lot for him to get startled. It could cause a whole lot of problems if he managed to get anywhere he shouldn't be."
  697. Aug 26 23:20:58 <Chase> "Well, there's only one place I know of with people like that, Anette."
  698. Aug 26 23:21:42 <Saryx> "Most likely that island Miracle showed me and Chase when we all were using the hookah."
  699. Aug 26 23:21:44 <Chase> "The vanishing island south of Red Blade Isle - it's connected with the disappearance of my sister five years ago."
  700. Aug 26 23:22:06 <Genevieve> "It'd take too long to get there at the moment...and I kind of want to keep him around to study."
  701. Aug 26 23:22:07 <Rosetta> "We can relocate Yanala, but I think I should be trying to get her mind fixed ASAP still. Guess I could do that while you guys investigate that island?"
  702. Aug 26 23:22:28 <Chase> "Study? Gen, you have like four corpses, isn't that enough? What are you gonna do, ask him about his culture?"
  703. Aug 26 23:22:36 <Chase> "I think the poor dude's been through enough."
  704. Aug 26 23:22:41 <@zoofarrator> Miracle Eye: "What did you have in mind for that, Rosetta?"
  705. Aug 26 23:23:41 <Rosetta> "I was gonna ask The Writer for help with that." Rosetta shrugs. "I mean, I can do some nifty Unown tricks, so I think if I study I can maybe figure out more of how this works."
  706. Aug 26 23:24:26 <Genevieve> "Something like that. And if we want to try to clear these goons out of the city NOW, we don't have time to worry too much about the comfort of one guy."
  707. Aug 26 23:24:32 <@zoofarrator> Chione: "I dunno what all you intend to study when we can't figure out how to get through to him. Hrm."
  708. Aug 26 23:24:54 <@zoofarrator> "I think he gets the idea that we're tryin' to help him at least."
  709. Aug 26 23:25:04 <@zoofarrator> "Else he'd of torn us all new assholes."
  710. Aug 26 23:25:35 <Chase> "Yeah, and as soon as she makes him a lab rat again that kinda goes out the window."
  711. Aug 26 23:25:49 <Rosetta> "I gotta agree there. Can we leave the studying til later at least?"
  712. Aug 26 23:26:03 <@zoofarrator> Miracle Eye and Chione seem to think on that as Annette raises a hand. "Um."
  713. Aug 26 23:26:11 »» Chase looks at Annette. "Hm?"
  714. Aug 26 23:26:30 <@zoofarrator> "Just me or should we be worried about what was on that video camera..?"
  715. Aug 26 23:26:48 <Chase> "Yeah, I bet that has a shitton of stuff for Gen to go over."
  716. Aug 26 23:26:52 <Genevieve> "Oh, right."
  717. Aug 26 23:27:30 <Rosetta> "Lemme grab another soda before you turn that on." Rosetta hops over to her backpack and grabs a Blood Oran soda. "Alright, I'm shiny."
  718. Aug 26 23:27:53 »» Chase sits back and prepares his anus, figuratively.
  719. Aug 26 23:27:53 <@zoofarrator> Chione starts digging around that - luckily this stuff distracted everyone from Saryx's photos. The vidoes date back a long while. And there's a lot of them.
  720. Aug 26 23:27:57 <@zoofarrator> She starts at the beginning.
  721. Aug 26 23:29:03 <@zoofarrator> You see a guy with gelled spikey hair, glasses, a lab coat. Rather lanky. Dr. Langlias himself. He's setting up with a then living Siren strapped to the table.
  722. Aug 26 23:29:54 <Rosetta> "Oh fuck are we about to watch him conduct surgery?" Rosetta grimaces.
  723. Aug 26 23:30:03 <Genevieve> "Vivisection, really."
  724. Aug 26 23:30:18 »» Chase looks a bit disgusted. "I dunno if I can watch this."
  725. Aug 26 23:30:20 <@zoofarrator> "Holllly shit. Can you believe this ? Like, Grant swore they'd exist and I'd be working with them but hahaha holy fuck it's real. Look at er'" the camera zooms in on her face, struggling and gagged. "Smile for the camera!"
  726. Aug 26 23:30:33 <@zoofarrator> Rather than jump straight to surgury, he talks for a bit.
  727. Aug 26 23:33:08 <@zoofarrator> "So here's what the few of us who believed this stuff have known for a while. These Stag Lords have had a long, long standing tradition of sending their boys to copulate with these things in exhange for mystical and pscionic gifts.

  729. Aug 26 23:35:56 <@zoofarrator> "Why does Grant care about this? Because he suspects there's a reason The Stag Lords got ostracized and isolated beyond just their location, and 9/10, this had something to do with it."

For a long while, he only had this one Siren to toy with. But eventually they sent him another that was 'more his type', so he euthanized the first one and inspected her organs in more detail.
  749. Aug 26 23:43:02 <@zoofarrator> The Nido-pair came together. They were found dead on a beach on the very southside Blue Guard Isle, picked up by smugglers under Grant's care, and sent to him.
  750. Aug 26 23:43:33 <@zoofarrator> He found the way they were killed peculiar - drained of blood. He hypothesized it might have something to do with these Cherubs Dandyman employs.
  751. Aug 26 23:45:00 <@zoofarrator> The Infernapeguy and Emborc came together, fairly recently, within the last two months. He killed the first one rather brutally early on, but kept the other around because he seemed much more...sapient of the two, and he had a geunine interest and trying to understand this one.

Is it simply conidence that so many Regions base their starters on these Types as well? Is there some sorta latent connection the
