But there's a few places more well-lit....

The team moves out, driving through the Ozarks as quickly as the often broken terrain permits. No serious encounters occur along the way, fortunately--a Coalition aircraft passed overhead, but was heading south-by-southeast, and thus was nothing to do with them.

Notice and Arcane Senses
- With a start Roath grunts then coughs, he is in the front passenger seat of the vehicle Herra is driving. Having suddenly awakened the Line Walker has a moment of panic. I fell asleep? Where are we? What horrible thing is coming now? Trying to maintain a relaxed look outwardly he has a death grip on the hilt of the flaming sword of Roxcryth.
Sitting up straighter in the seat the old man reaches out with his senses and gets a feel for the world around him, location of team members who use magic or psionics, if they are close, he even listens with his mind for any Ley Line or Rift activity. Seeing nothing much at all with his own eyes he places his goggles back onto his face and can now see. I hate losing my vision and relying on these spectacles. Oh, age. You are a mean one. Looking first at Herra he smiles and nods at her. Roath then looks out the windows at the outside world.
"Ahh, we are arriving. Good driving Herra, it was relaxing enough to take a nap."
Roath relaxes his hold on the flaming sword attached to his belt and resets his helmet squarely on his lap as they approach the town.
Another grunt and Roath says, "Now comes the interesting part."

Seeing the town and out lying homes already turned in for the night Herra frowns slightly. Rolling in as traders in the middle of the night will draw attention and scrutiny and have the opposite effect they intend."I have the ability to observe the village undetected. Give me a moment. You will need to guard my body while my mind wanders."
Focusing her mental energy for a moment, Herra shimmers slightly as she projects her astral self into the world. Focusing on both sight and sound she moves as quickly as possible through the major areas of the village.

Notice 8
Character Summary
Re: First! - Little Pocahontas
OOC Comments
Most everyone seems to realize that the lit areas of town also have a lot of foot-traffic moving within the area, mostly small clusters or couples, to judge from here. The industrial area is almost certainly largely defunct; the brick-and-mortar walls have gaps leading to dark interiors. The small homes seem mostly to consist of sustenance farms and small workshops; the whole place has a very 'frontier' feel.The folks scanning the city up-close (Echo and Herra, using their respective talents) get considerably more intel:
Snack-Happy notes immediately that Sasha's sensors pick up another suit of Robot Armor (make not one-hundred-percent certain at this distance, though a Triax Hunter is his best guess) on the far (Eastern) side of town; he's fairly certain it's in standby mode, currently, since it isn't reacting to the group's presence. It's the sort of set-up he himself has used when camping out in Sasha--keeps you ready to respond to any actual outcry, but means you're not woken up by the sensors pinging on every damn bit of wildlife.
Echo banks over the lights: The groups in the lit areas are definitely partiers; you catch faint sounds of drunken revelry carried on the breeze. They mostly consist of men who share a common marking on their armor (a blazing flame), and various individuals (about 3/4 of them women, the others young men) who seem to be 'entertaining' them as they go from bar to bar to brothel. You hear some of the revelers refer to one particular member of their number as "Hellfire"; there's clearly an attitude of good-natured subservience. They also mention that "Lucius is camping on the east side of town, with Ursula", followed by a crude comment about what those two do together alone. "Hellfire" then goes into the apparent brothel; you even note which window's lights come on shortly thereafter.
Herra: You realize that some of the buildings in the industrial zone are more intact than others. There's one large warehouse-style building that has been carefully boarded up, and has a lone man, wearing the same sort of Maverick armor with the hellfire logo, standing at the smaller door next to the large cargo door and looking extremely bored. It's just as dark as the rest of the area, and the windows are completely covered. Sending the sensor inside the building reveals to her that there are, indeed, a large number of hovercycles and robot horses (the latter all in shut-down mode), essentially 'stabled' for the night.

Seeing the hover cycles and horses Herra smiles. She uses any remaining time in the astral plane to count the enemy assets and look for alternative entrances and traps. When she feels the corporeal world calling her back she doesn't resist (will not spend ISP to maintain power). Back in the ATV her body stops shimmering and her eyes pop open."The vehicles are in an old building in the industrial section. Lightly guarded". After reporting any other pertinent details and listening to the others she looks to Artesima.
"It seems we have the element if surprise and good information. Perhaps a short rest and then a strike in the dead of night? I believe I can gain us access to the vehicle storage area with little resistance."

Re: First! - Little Pocahontas
Echo spends about 15 minutes watching the apparent leader of the group during his interlude so she can better understand him for later, and see if there is more information to be had. Then she pulls away to a safe distance from any potential observers. She will then move out and find a radio unguarded, crawl slowing over taking all caution and steel it. Turning off the radio and removing the battery, she brings it back to the group.
Once she feels it is safe she returns to the check point, assumes the Hispanic female form she used earlier with the group and reports what she found. "This is Echo, there is a large group following a man who titles himself 'Hellfire' in general revelry in the town. I was able to watch the leader for some time in his interactions with others, before he chose a female and went to copulate. I then followed him and observed for about 15 minutes before returning. One or two of their members named Lucius and Ursula are camping on the east side of town. I chose to come back and report before identifying Lucius and Ursula, but can if it is needed gain more information there."
Transforming she imitate the demeanor and likeness of Hellfire "This is their leader, he is well liked his my men and respected." Transforming back she says. "Perhaps this guise can be used for access to facilities if needed?"
"Here is one of their radios, I thought it could be used by someone with more technical skills for greater observation. I removed the battery and turned it off. But do not know what else you would like done."

Sliding on his dark helm Roath states across the team radio: "When it's time to go in, just for your information, I can become truly invisible as needed. The cloak I have on isn't just for fashion. If, as you say, there is only one guard on duty by the vehicles I can... quickly and quietly... dispatch him if that's part of the plan. Just let me know what you'd like me to do."
Dressed all in black with a helmet on definitely makes Roath look more imposing than the old man might otherwise. His level, calm, stoic voice as he talks about dispatching life hints of this not being his first time killing.

Zakkael shakes his head. "I see no advantage in slaying them without giving them an opportunity to repent and turn from their wicked ways. It is also worth considering that the townsfolk feel favorably towards this group, and having some of them turn up dead just as we arrive may cause problems not only for our approach, but also for the townsfolk if this group seeks vengeance on the wrong people."
He turns to Artemeisia. "I understand our orders and our ultimate goal. We cannot allow this group to continue onto their destination. I submit to the orders of my superior officer. I am well aware of the advantage of surprise, and have no compunctions about using it to our benefit. However, I did understand that sabotaging the transportation was among our options. Let us at least consider this before the harshest penalty is imposed upon these people. If you like, I can go to the one guarding the transportation and I can reason with him. I will search his mind. Perhaps he is not beyond saving. Or perhaps Echo's method will be even more effective at gaining us entrance to the stable."

I can remain aloft as Echo's protector in case the ruse is discovered, as unlikely as that is. Roath is there to strike if the guard's thoughts turn to violence. I have full confidence in Echo's gifts at adaptation, and Roath's sword will strike true."
He pauses, considering further, then continues. "Or if we prefer a more direct approach and an attempt to turn this soul from his wicked ways, thereby lessening the enemy's numbers, Echo can play the demon to my angel, and we can argue for the guard's soul. Roath can speak from the darkness, urging the guard to choose the light. While this choice appeals to me, Echo is quite adept at imitation, and the game as the guard's superior may be the easiest way to a good result."

Trying to assess the situation is difficult, in her short life so far someone has always told her what to do. Thinking and acting strategically was never required. However, she knows this Tomorrow Legion values free thinking. Especially in these special groups. Despite her background then, she tries to consider the options rather than just wait to be told what to do.
"I believe the opportunity for conversion will come after we have secured our objective. We will not murder everyone present nor torture them, thus a rousing sermon may be our only option. She thinks for a moment before continuing, "The robot vehicle could be very helpful in our second assignment to defend the mining settlement. Can anyone pilot it? If so, perhaps we should try to capture it. At the very least a team should disable it."

As Echo finishes up with an order to go have fun, Roath moves, silently and with great care. Following the bandit, the Line Walker has his mind wrapped around a spell to cast and his hand wrapped around the hilt of the Greater Flamming Sword, or the Rox Blade, as he thinks of it.
Staying close, Roath parallels the bandits path ready to strike if necessary.

But if one of us can maneuver the vehicle to our objective, there may be one or two among the miners that could use the armor against the attackers. There is to be a battle in defense of the miners' settlement and property. Two suits of robot armor are better than one, even if one is there only to draw some fire."
Zakkael thinks a moment, and continues. "Also, any surviving materiel such as a robot armor suit could certainly be put to use by the Tomorrow Legion in other theaters. Our unit's expertise at martial concerns lacks nothing, but our gift of persuasion and subterfuge is peerless. Herra and Scyleia could address the armor while Echo, Roath, and myself gain entrance to the stable of hoverbikes and horses.

Zakkael shrugs. "Until we can duplicate our master pilot, all we need is to deprive the enemy of the unit. I see advantage in taking it for our own use rather than simply destroying it. Or, if Herra is capable, we could even use their pilot as our own."

Scyleia, recalling some of the torture that she personally endured, starts sending the pilot mental images of being tortured in very tight, confined places. Conveying through the connection that it is very hard to breath and her own memories of the desire to 'get out of this NOW'.Character Summary

Artemeisia wrote: "If we are capable of achieving the objective without taking lives, that is preferable in some ways," she agrees, but it's clear she is spoiling for a fight. "We should proceed with that plan. If the layout makes it possible, the rest of us should remain in close proximity if the subtle route goes awry. As long as the efforts are not at cross-purposes, Echo and Zakkael should proceed simultaneously. Roathe, as you have indicated, you can become truly invisible, so, using that, support Zakkael. His plan depends on his force of personality." Switching to Echo, she says, "What support would be most advantageous to your proposal?"
Dice rolls
Having received the confirmation order from Artemeisia Echo heads out. The seasoned commander having enjoyed a little alcohol to help relax now and then. But this time he was thinking perhaps he should let someone else have some fun. His voice only a little loose from his evenings drinking, but lacking the the solid slur of someone who is actually drunk he looks to the club member he left on guard earlier. “Hey, I’ll take this post. No need for you to stay here all night and not get a chance to enjoy yourself some before we start the job. You will be busy enough soon.
“Go ahead and take off, go find a partner to have some drinks with and perhaps a little time in a bedroom. I will take over here, you have six hours to enjoy yourself.” Seeing the uncertain look on the guards the commander would brook no arguments, his face getting a little stern, while still maintaining the jovial nature of his friendly respect with his soldiers he says. “That's an order. Go have some fun soldier.”
Seeing his man head off to enjoy himself the commander relaxes and takes over the guard position, looking over he sees his special assignment men coming to perform the vehicle maintenance he had requested. This should be an easy night with no actions planned until tomorrow he doubted there would be any trouble tonight.
Once his allies show up, Echo shapes a duplicate of himself to stand 'guard' while he heads in with the others to get started on the evenings maintenance plans.

After quickly scarfing down the rest of his overly large sandwich, Jacob locks up the Gunwolf and heads out following on his way to the garage. Once in the garage he begins inspecting the bikes and robot horse and determining the best course of action. Once decided upon he gets to work disabling all the same parts of the vehicles so as to ensure it will be harder to piece meal back together.

Notice 11 Success and Raise
Seeing the others arrive Echo leaves Private Harris watching the front as she heads in to see ho she can help sabotage the equipment.Once getting to the entrance and seeing the door is still locked Echo warps the wall next to it forming an opening for her friends to enter and moves in. Appraising the number of vehicles she realizes this job may be a larger job than she thought. "The best thing it to just get started." Looking around she identifies the bike she finds most capable of being ignored and blending in and points to it. "Can we save that one? I would like help jacking it for myself?"
She then gets to work immediately opening each vehicle and using her shaping to randomly rip out things that look important or complex hoping to be as much help as possible to the team.

Notice 4
Sneaking up alongside Scyleia, Herra watches as she attempts to use her abilities sight unseen. A very difficult task indeed. Not one to show someone up unnecessarily, Herra hesitates before attempting her own action. Stirring up her mental reserves she attempts to take control of the pilot's mind, first using her mind's eye to find his location and then take control of his actions.If successful she will have the pilot unlock the vehicle, set all pass codes and authorizations to "Legion", and make him exit the vehicle and submit to Artemesia and Scyleia.
"Pilot, please set all your pass codes and authorizations for the vehicle to "legion", unlock the doors and come out here. Do as my two friends instruct and allow them to restrain you."

Artemeisia is a bit anxious while part of the team is running around in small groups. She joins up with Jacob as he sneaks to the garage. She tries to sneak too. With her sword and gun drawn she is prepared for action, no matter how much bumbling.Stealth isn't Arteimsia's strong suit but at least it's doing something. She also feels the need to narrate the experience, but barely manages to keep it under wraps. A little grandstanding at the appropriate moment, which is extremely difficult since the point of grandstanding is to be seen, but the point of stealth is to not be seen.

Re: First! - Little Pocahontas
After getting started on the work of disabling the vehicles Echo thinks to add a little extra to the damage she is doing to the engines of these vehicles. Before walking away she floods the engine compartment with fire, followed by electricity. "That should give them a little extra headache when trying to fix these things."
Leaving the hood open as she walks towards the next vehicle, she tries to think if there are any other options available to stall out any repair attempts that may be made on these vehicles.

Re: First! - Little Pocahontas
Peril at Pocahontas
A Little Night Sabotage (SnackHappy, Hossun, Echo, Artemeisia)
As Hossun and Artemeisia stand guard outside the warehouse, SnackHappy and Echo begin tweaking the machines to fail, dramatically and spectacularly, a good two hours after they've been fired up--which will make them completely worthless going forward. Outside, the night is silent and dark; Echo's ruse must've worked, and the guard took his orders to go have some fun without question.
Roath shadows the former guard as he makes his way out of the decrepit industrial ruin and to the well-lit downtown party zone. He hears it, even before the lights become visible--music, laughter, catcalls and the occasional pitch being shouted by a consort-for-hire. There are cities with less active red-light districts than this.
His mark makes it to the lit streets, and is immediately beset by a bevy of come-ons; apparently deciding to make up for lost time, he picks out a girl and a guy, and they start heading towards the brothel across the street from the shadowed alley Roath is watching from, unseen. Just as they are about to go inside, he stops, standing a few feet from the door, as his companions look on in confusion. His body language is tough to read from this angle, but he seems to simply be stunned by something or other.
Several moments pass, while he ignores the entreaties of the prostitutes to come inside and seal the deal. Then the doors of the brothel fly open, and six men come storming out--one of them, Roath recognizes easily as the man Echo was imitating. Without a word, all seven of the men start towards the alleyway Roath is using as his cover--the shortest path back to the warehouse where SnackHappy and Echo are working so diligently....
Herra's mental commands rouse the stunned and sleeping pilot, and his hand hovers over the hatch control--and then, with a genuinely impressive force of will, he pushes both Herra and Scyleia out of his mind, and powers up his weapon systems, instead. A cold, angry voice comes over the speakers of the suit's PA system: "I'd appreciate it if you guys run; it's more fun to blow holes in moving targets."
Zakkael dutifully circles the night sky, staying above the GunWolf to ensure no tampering occurs, and yet still able to provide limited overwatch on the rest of the town, as well.

Roath frowns, then harrumphs a sigh as seven of the men start towards the alleyway that Roath is using as his cover. I suppose this is the kind of position Sir Sayeen would charge in and take on all seven mercs, by himself. A quiet chuckle escapes his mouth and Roath rushes back deeper into the alley, back towards the garage.
Over the radio he quietly and quickly explains the situation, "If you want to meet me half way great, come set up a ambush with me, otherwise half way back I am going to turn around and fight them myself. We need....hold on..."
Roath concentrates on his breathing and not getting light headed as he runs. This blows. When did I get old?
"...we ... need ... to ... stop ... them....them...'for ...the garage... sheesh....okay?"
Damn it, now I get it. Running away is more effort than staying and charging. Damn old Cyber Knight knew it. Now I do too.

Hearing the report on the radio Echo looks to the commander and grabs the radio calling back to Roath. "How many are coming this way? Will the three of you guarantee success or be risky?"

"Please proceed with the sabotage, Hassun and I are off to assist our "elder"," Artemeisia says to Snackhappy and Echo. There's a smirk on her face when she says "elder" because the True Atlantean suspects she's probably older than the teams most aged human. That he's not human hasn't actually occurred to her yet.The prospect of a good fight energizes Artemeisia. She runs, finger itching on the laser pistol's trigger, the safety remains on for the moment. But the real test of her professionalism is leaving the chainsword off. It's an elegant model, designed for speed and agility as well as raw power, but even it sounds like a chainsaw when it's activated.
Quietly and calmly over the radio she tells Roath, "Roath, you have back up on the way, myself and the noble Hassun are rapidly approaching. Be patient, do not draw until we are there unless absolutely necessary."
She is most impatient though and runs, trusting that her teammate follows, but not really caring one way or the other. When she arrives at Roath's position, the fighting starts.

I'm tired of running damn it, be easier to just start fighting them.
"However I will attempt to muster the strength to wait for you. Hurry."
Summoning up mental willpower while making his way down the alley closer to his allies Roath is prepared to cast Greater Fear, but for now summons Armor around himself. If visible a protective coating of black stone would be visible encasing his body.

Re: First! - Little Pocahontas
Since you guys are laying an ambush, Hassun, you'll need to wait until you can see them to cast in order to get the timing right--otherwise, you might end up having the power run out. You guys won't have a precise fix on their location until they're almost on top of you.
EDIT: Actually, I am retracting this ruling. Given Roath's position and plan to let the bad guys pass him, he can give a 'ping' to alert the other two on when to time their effects. All is well. Hassun will begin with the effect up; please go to the other thread and place him on the map and make the stealth/Notice rolls.

Notice 10
Seeing the others return from the battle without any major injury Echo comments. "Anyone want a ride? Those two are jacked and free for the taking. We were going to save you that cool looking TW Horse, but without the skills needed we were forced to break it down." Jumping on his own mount she turns her head to the others and adds. "Oh, if you don't take those two rides we have to destroy them." Contingent

Zakkael smiles at Echo. "The hoverbikes will be of no use to me. I do thank you both for thinking of us, though. Unfortunately, I was unable to assist Herra and Scyleia with the repurposing of the Hunter. It has been thoroughly ruined. At least our brave warrior women were unharmed! I recall hearing a tale of one young boy facing off in single combat against a giant to decide the fate of a nation. Certainly, that giant did not have particle beam cannons and missiles at his disposal, but their fates were much the same. If the Light is for us, who can long stand against us?"
He takes one last look around before heading back to the gunwolf and ATV.

Returning with the others, Scyleia remains silent and in her own head... "That was too reckless, you were trained better than that! Fortunately his errors spared me this time, you may not be so lucky in the future..."
Pulled out of her berating thoughts by Echo's greeting... "Thank you, but I prefer the ATV. I don't know how to operate one of those things."
Scyleia begins her climb into the ATV when she turns to address the group from the door, "Has anyone come across a spare vibrosword?"

Re: First! - Little Pocahontas
Regrouping at the warehouse Herra declines a hover cycle, ”I can barely operate the monstrosity, riding that thing at break neck speed will surely kill me."
Assisting where she can at the remaining sabotage Herra contemplates the TW Horse. Its beauty is obvious and destroying it seems a shame. However, she also knows she can't ride and magic items sometimes have a mind of their own.
Heading back to the ATV she braces herself for driving. Staring at the steering wheel she sighs, "I'd rather fight another giant robot."

Roath chuckles. "If a cycle could be attached to the ATV for later use, I'd take one. If not, I'm okay without. Glad to see you all pulled through the action. Good job ruining their rides too!"

Eager to get back to Sasha, Jacob climbs on up. Back at the controls he lets his gut out a bit and relaxes.
"Whats next on our agenda oh fearless leader? Did you guys save anybody for Echo and I to beat on a bit?"
Firing the systems back up Jacob preps Sasha for their next move.
