WNC: Mission 1-Beta: The Hunt

[spinningdice]

OOC:
Moving this along, no gear from Sacretis yet, if you can come up with something before this gets too far along feel free, otherwise I'll just assign you some basic gear
I'm also assuming you're heading towards Drywater at a good, though not OTT pace - please feel free to clarify later.


You make good time towards Drywater, it's been a dry few weeks, and the earth is hard-baked, the bare earth is probably better than most post-war roadways. En-route to Drywater you see... something, a short way from your path, being circled by carrion birds.
A detour would only take a few minutes, you've been travelling several hours and will be entering the mountains soon - where you think your progess will slow down considerably.

[NezMaster]

I'm all for the detour. Anyone bring any distance surveilance gear? If not, lets just try to get close.

[Sacretis]

OOC: All my mission gear is thrown into team gear picks (assuming you guys don't mind).  I don't have anything I really need for this mission.

Scrap is definitely for investigating the carrion birds' "prey."

[foproy]

"hmm interesting i think this definitely warrants investigation" says ratchet "though i think we should definitely proceed with caution".

[Sludig]

Fix-it looks at the mess, "Well, if you want me to approach, one of you know how to use a .50 cal?" *points to the mounted MG pintle*

[NezMaster]

No reason for you to go alone. I took some special stealth training for this mission. I can't help with the gun though.

[foproy]

"when you clear the area get back to me, ill see what i can find out with a closer look"
(ooc i got a 24 knowledge check to know that they sometimes go after injured food i am hoping that is enough if not then disregard the following statement) "be careful what ever they are after could still be alive but hurt."

[spinningdice]

OOC: Knowledge check 24 lets you know that their food is likely to be injured rather than dead, otherwise they'd be feasting rather than circling

Sacretis had 2 Faction, 1Gadget & 1Security picks. I assume that 2 of them will be in reserve (though the setting dictates you may have trouble claiming them - does anyone have any last requests before I write these off?

[foproy]

then change my last response, "there victim is probably injure instead of dead I should probably come along too."

also retro actively can i get a caliber 1 first aid kit. that would have been one of my kits had i had the extra pick anyway. scratch that i will make due with what i have.

[Sacretis]

OOC:  I'll take a quick look when I get home and maybe use that security pich.  I don't have much need for a gadget pick ATM, so I think you can go ahead and write 'em all off assuming no one else claims them.

[NezMaster]

Sludig go up, we'll be about 50\70 paces behind. It should allow you to keep your cover, while still letting us be close by...

[foproy]

" sounds like a plan."

[spinningdice]

Fix-It heads off, staying low with the rest of you following behind somewhat slower - as you get closer you see a vehicle, looking burned out - looks like it used to be a sportscar at some point in it's history, though has been "Ruggedised" - armour plating, spikes, etc.
There's thick black smoke coming from where it's engine should be.
You see a body nearby, but can't see anything moving, at least not until you get closer.

[NezMaster]

"who's the medic?" Express looks hopefully at the party, while double checking to make sure his shotgun is ready. He looks out to the vehicle. "Well there's no one watching for us. "
Presuming Fix-it has not stopped, hopefully he can get a look in the vehicle. If it's empty and Express doesn't see any more ambush points, he'll move closer, protecting the medic and investigating the car.
"We do have a medic, right?"

[foproy]

"right behind you." ratchet runs after he calls back,  runs up to the body checks it out and attempts to stabilise i rolled a 17 +6  -4=19.
