Dawn of the Zobos (OOC)

[Supercape]

post away you are up!

[Supercape]

At this point, Catalyst has I think wiped out the SHADOW agents (As in snared them all), I'm going to call it!

[Aoiroo]

Catalyst is gonna coup de grace the scientist who spoke with pepper spray (IE her stun). So yeah appropriate DC and all.

[Supercape]

Feel free to narrate that, he is only a PL0 (Combat wise) scientist!

[Aoiroo]

Already did, now she's pretty much intimidating them to talk, want a roll for that?

[Supercape]

hmmm, its pretty easy, but make a roll to see how much you get from them...

[Aoiroo]

14, btw, situation bonus?

[Aoiroo]

Btw, does Catalyst have cell phone service?

[Supercape]

Sure! for the sake of consistency I would say go up to ground level, but if you want to phone from below thats fine

[Aoiroo]

So, how do we go about looking for patient zero, this a gather information roll, search roll, what?

[Supercape]

Well patient zero has dubious intellect, so he (or ?she) will not be hard to track, and will not be far.

I'll leave the details up to you. I would have thought Catalyst (with her INT and skills) could come up with some appropriate chemical sniffer / detector for instance. No rolls really necessary. But any idea you have I will run with!

[Aoiroo]

Chemistry doesn't work like that. Especially what Catalyst makes, her stuff is based on actual chemicals concuctions, the only really extra ordinary things in her arsenal are her smoke bombs and snare, and that's just because of the rate they expand. She could make a search roll I suppose, but nothing can substitute pure manpower, that's why she's calling the police to look and kill on sight this particular person.

[Supercape]

Works for me!

[Aoiroo]

So how fast can Catalyst get to where the police are?

[Supercape]

Well lets say it is just under a mile away 4000 feet. Van would be faster but it the ground is really bad for driving on fast.

In the Van, lets say a minute with every 5 points of DC over 10 on driving check cutting a round off that. Alternatively, go hell for leather over broken rail track, and damage the van (bust its wheels and axis, so it can only crawl thereafter) to get there in half the time.

By foot, Catalyst moves 200 foot a round with two move actions. She can move all out for 14 rounds at 400 feet which is enough to reach Patient Zero in ten rounds. Extra effort will cut that down further of course but not worth it really!

[Aoiroo]

Catalyst's van has impervious toughness five, so would that help against damage done , anyway, here's the roll, 25, so where does that put her?

[Supercape]

That puts her 3 rounds away, 18 seconds!

Fluff that a bit in terms of getting into the van, and driving very skillfully!

[Aoiroo]

How's her passenger doing?

[Supercape]

Shaken, not stirred.

i.e. pale, weak, sleepy, but not yet passed out.

[Supercape]

Given Zero's INT and disraction and in keeping with the spirit of zombies, lets proceed to round 1 with Catalyst having the initiative!
