Magix Club's Forum _ Role-Playing _ Vampire: The masquerade ~ Dark intentions (RolePlay)
Posted by: Ranma Nov 24 2013, 9:40 PM
This topic might contain some material that some may find offensive.
The group finds themselves in the top story office of a successful banking and accounting firm. The building itself is a skyscraper located in New York City, and this particular office belongs to Alphonse Neville, the president of "Neville Corporate Banking" and the Prince Kindred of that venue. The room itself is well decorated with Mahogany furniture, a chandelier, and even a personal bar for ones enjoyment. His desk is large, with many papers, stamps, and even photographs of all kinds set up in an extremely orderly fashion. If one were unaware that he were a vampire, many would most likely believe that those photographs were of his family and that the room felt more like a home than an office, but they were just a show to give the never suspecting mortals the illusion that he was one of them. Alphonse himself sits behind his desk in his oh-so-comfortable looking office chair with his fingers laced in front of his face in thought before the two kindred that stand before him. His forehead is wrinkled in concentration.
Alphonse himself is a man of tall stature, and stands about six feet in height and carries himself with perfect posture. His clothes rest perfectly on his body, and from head to toe he is groomed with meticulous detail. His short, business styled, blonde hair is well kept with every hair in its rightful place. He wears a navy suit that really brings out the color of his piercing blue eye, along with a white, silk, dress shirt and a red necktie. Behind him, and to his left, stands a man who is dressed as though he were part of the secret service. He stands rigid and intimidating at a height of six foot three, and he never budges an inch. He looks forward at all times, and his eyes are hidden behind a pair of black shades. To his right stands a man about five feet and eight inches tall. He has black, slicked back hair, and he wears a black pinstripe suit with a black shirt, red tie, and red pocket square.
Alexander and John stand at the center of the room and wait nervously for the prince to speak. They have been waiting for almost half an hour and he has yet to say a word to them. To be fair, the prince was taking care of business, speaking on the phone, making deals, making sure certain transactions went through... he even did a little of his banking work as well, but now all of that is done, and the silence in the room is unbearable. The two men standing behind Alphonse remain silent and perfectly still, which seems to add to the tension on the room. "Why were we brought here," "What did we do," are some of the few possible questions that go through the heads of Alexander and John as they for the prince to speak.

It was quite apparent in his demeanor that standing still was not one of Alexander's strong suits, no matter how hard he tried. If his light green eyes weren't wandering off to inspect all aspects of the room, one of his feet would tap the polished floor slightly or one of his long, slender fingers would drum against his leg in a rythm of a song that was currently in his head. That was something his mind always did when there was silence, even back when he was mortal. Play a song. He'd hum if he didn't feel like this would make the situation even more akward then they already were.
While he didn't look unpresentable (He was a Toreador. Looking good was not just desired, it was required), Alexander felt incredibly out of place with his dark blue suit jacket casually thrown over his bright red blouse and his equally bright red hair framing his face loosely in a casual manner that took him longer then he cared to admit. He felt like, were this a job interview, the man would probably have kicked him out before he could even get a word in.
So why was he here? He had no clue. Most of the time the Camarilla seemed to have no use for him and was all too happy to just let him be. As long as he followed the rules and didn't screw up. Was that what happened? Did he screw something up? God he hoped not.
He let out a small cough, but stayed silent. It was against his nature, but he had some degree of a survival instinct. And it was telling him to keep quiet and to not anger someone who could have your head.

((K, I'm lovin' it))
Alphonse's eyebrow visibly twitches as Alexander coughs. Perhaps he had let the children sweat long enough and that was the limit to their patience. Maybe the silence was nothing but a test to see how the kindred in front of the prince could take the pressure. Nonetheless the prince makes a frown at the sudden interruption of his thoughts, not that the kindred in front of him could see it, with his hands still restricting the view to his face, but perhaps they can see it in his eyes; his disdain towards the younglings before him.
"I suppose you are curious as to why I've summoned you here," He says with a voice that seems like a sigh. He finally stands and puts his hands at his side as he walks to the front of his desk. His lips are curled in a generous smile, and his eyes that seemed as though they held nothing but hate and contempt, though they haven't changed, appear to be almost friendly when accompanied by it.

John who had been standing waiting for Alphonse to speak. He knew that by the talking that a deal or multipul deals were being made. This let him know they could have been in for a long and tedious wait. It also seemed that he was doing a lot better than Alexander. Maybe because he had been involved in negotations and deals in the past, so was more aware of what was going on.
When Alphonse spoke he gave a slight pause before speaking "Yes. I must admit I am curious"
Posted by: P-girl Nov 25 2013, 10:14 AM
"Very curious, Sir." Alexander repeated, noticing the twitch of Prince Neville's eyebrow and smiling inwardly, looking down and playing with a lock of his hair just in case it showed outwardly as well. He couldn't help himself, he had always disliked authority and to see he annoyed someone of such a high rank brought a certain sense of childlike glee. "I am not exactly familiar with the Camarilla's inner dealings, nor do I mingle often with the top brass." He shifted his glance at his neighbor, who, while more composed, also seemed to have been roped in without a clue as to 'why'. "How 'bout you?" He softly asked. Better to find out just how out of his depth he was compared to the others.

((I'll wait for Marty to respond to you before I make my next post.))
Posted by: mightymarty2 Nov 26 2013, 9:05 AM
John took a second to think about if he should answer or not. He decided that it would be best to just to keep things civil with this guy. When he spoke it was at the same volume as Alexander had spoke "I have had dealing with senior people but never this high up and I don't have a clue why we are here" he told him hoping he would let Alphonse speak now.
Posted by: Ranma Nov 26 2013, 3:14 PM
((Typing this on my phone here))
"Yes, I suppose neither of you would have any dealings with fhe elders. You are just barely neonates, and have yet to make the proper connections nor have you earned any respect or renown," Alphonse said matter-of-fact. "Now is the time to change that. Alexander, your master was separated from you early on, and John, yours was just murdered very recently by a band of Sabbat I believe have infiltrated my city. I sent him on a mission to investigate, and all transmission has ceased. I can only fear that the worst has happened."
Posted by: P-girl Nov 26 2013, 3:40 PM
And whose fault was that?
Rang trough Alexander's head as his Master was mentioned. He couldn't help himself, he never gotten to know his Master and what he knew didn't paint the best picture, just Siring him on a whim. Still, killing her for it always felt like a step too far and if she didn't make a good first impression, the Camarilla made an even worse one. But he kept quiet about it. His protests would most likely be seen as the ramblings of a child who didn't quite grasp this new world he was experiencing. And on some level, they were probably right. He had yet to make a name for himself, something that would prove very useful in the future. Heck, it would probably even lead to having the opportunity to be more bold about things, say things he wanted to say without the risk of getting in some serious trouble. So he was ready to take this opportunity. That said...
"The Sabbat? You're sending us up against the Sabbat?" Alexander asked, trying to hide a tinge of fear. From what little he knew, the Sabbat were BAD news. And while it wasn't outright stated yet, this offer felt like a good way to get dusted.
Posted by: Ranma Nov 26 2013, 5:25 PM
"Just reconnaissance I assure you," Alphonse responded rather quickly. "I do not expect you to fight the Sabbat unless the situation absolutely calls for it. Also, you will not be going alone."
Alphonse gestured to the man with the pinstripe suit as he stepped forward. "This is Devlin. He is a neonate just like the two of you, but his sire was a trusted ally that has trained him well. He is knowledgable and will be an asset to your mission. His Sire has also gone missing in the same mission in which I previously spoke."
"It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, " Devlin said with a confident tone. "These Sabbat threaten the masquerade, and in that sense they threaten our very existence and way of life. It is our mission to find out if these are, in fact, Sabbat intruders and uncover any plans they might have."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Nov 26 2013, 6:11 PM
John listened carefully about what was happening. This had suddenly become serious and he was in very much in danger of getting over his head. However revenge did sound appealing to him. It promptly began to focus on other thoughts. He needed to keep his temper in check.
Posted by: P-girl Nov 26 2013, 6:33 PM
Reconnaissance...Now it made more sense why they brought him on board. Alexander prided himself in knowing what went on in the streets. And if he didn't, he had ways of finding out with his mostly natural charm. Speaking of which...
"Pleasure to meet you, partner." He said to Devlin, holding out a hand and smiling brightly, before turning to his neighbor, who seemed a little occupied. "Same for you... John, was it?"
Posted by: Ranma Nov 26 2013, 8:17 PM
Devlin returned the handshake with a polite professional smile.
"Continuing on," Alphonse interjected. "Time is of the essence if this is an attack on this city. Cast your lines, spread your feelers, use any resource at your disposal and bring back as much information as you can. If there are no questions you may begin immediately. Devlin's limousine is already waiting for you outside this building."
Posted by: P-girl Nov 26 2013, 8:47 PM
"Limo? Sweet!" Alexander said, unable to contain himself with the prospect of driving a limousine. He wasn't exactly financially well-off and a limo-ride felt very inviting. However, this led to another taught.
"Uhm, Sir. Not to doubt your estate's security or anything, but will my motorcycle be safe in the parking lot for as long as this mission takes?" He asked. "It's kind of my bread and butter, so to speak. Just wanting to make sure."
Posted by: Ranma Nov 26 2013, 9:13 PM
"Yes, we have around the clock security, Alphonse answered. Afterwards, with a grin he stated, "And don't worry, we validate parking."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Nov 27 2013, 9:05 AM
John now back in control looked at Alexander and gave him a firm handshake "Yep its John. Its nice to meet you Alexander". He then offered his hand to Devlin.
A Limo ride seemed interesting but flashy. Not his style he perfered performance versions of ordinary cars.
Posted by: P-girl Nov 27 2013, 10:51 AM
Alphonse's last comment made Alexander laugh nervously, before looking down again. That at least explained the somewhat pissy security officer he managed to brush past. Oops.
"That is one firm shake." Alexander said to John. "What clan are you? Brujah? Gangrel?"
Posted by: mightymarty2 Nov 27 2013, 7:26 PM
John looked back to Alexander "I am Grangel. What about you?"
Posted by: P-girl Nov 27 2013, 7:41 PM
"Toreador." Alexander, as he couldn't help run a hand trough his hair in a slightly arrogant gesture. "Can't you tell by my devilishly handsome looks?" He joked.
Posted by: Ranma Nov 27 2013, 11:26 PM
Devlin started his way out of the room, but stopped right before exiting the doorway. "Ventrue," he said with a devilish grin, "But that goes without saying."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Nov 28 2013, 8:44 AM
John looked at Alexander knowing he was trying to be funny. Then Devlin spoke after he had started to leave, he promptly decided to follow Devlin out the door glad to leave the office of Alphonse
Posted by: P-girl Nov 28 2013, 9:00 AM
"Figured as much." Alexander said, grinning before seeing John hurrying away and Devlin already ahead. He sighed with a bemused smile, shrugging quite elaborately before following swiftly, waving a last goodbye to Alphonse. "Let's just try to have a good time despite the situation, okay?" He tried, walking behind the other two men.
Posted by: Ranma Nov 28 2013, 10:07 AM
Devlin made his way to the elevator and waited for his party to arrive. He already had his finger on the button that lead to the first floor.
Posted by: P-girl Nov 28 2013, 10:17 AM
"You Ventrue don't screw around." Alexander said, getting into the elevator, leaning against the back wall of it casually.
Posted by: Ranma Nov 28 2013, 7:09 PM
"I see this as an opportunity for advancement," Devlin said as he pressed the button after John and Alexander entered the elevator. "Being a low level neonate isn't a good place to be. The more rank and respect one garners in the Camarilla the safer they are."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Nov 28 2013, 7:13 PM
John knew exactly what he was talking about he had seen it before. Being a business owner gave him some protection as people worried about what kind of trouble he could afford for them. Though he had seen or heard of intimidation, blackmail or violence against fellow business owners. "well lets just get this done" he said waiting for the lift to reach its destination.
Posted by: P-girl Nov 28 2013, 7:23 PM
"Alright, point taken." Alexander said, stretching himself. "Have people respect you is always nice, especially when you're working yourself up from the bottom. I personally don't care much for rank, tough."
Posted by: Ranma Nov 28 2013, 7:56 PM
The elevator reached the bottom and Devlin stepped out. "It's okay if you don't care about rank. Sometimes it's just good to have somebody watching your back."
Posted by: P-girl Nov 28 2013, 8:31 PM
"I rather like living on my own, tough. Just doing my thing, going where I wanna go without people telling what I should do... But I'm well aware even that freedom has to be earned." Alexander said, following. "Blindly kicking ignoring authority can be just as bad as blindly following it."
Posted by: Ranma Nov 29 2013, 12:04 AM
"And that's why I'm going to be on top some day. The one that stands at the top has the most freedom," Devlin said as he left the building and got into the limo. The driver was already standing with the door wide open for the group to enter.
Posted by: P-girl Nov 29 2013, 8:30 AM
"Not to mess with your dream but... does he really?" Alexander said, entering and taking a seat opposited Devlin. "There's a reason they call it 'The chains of command'."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Nov 29 2013, 8:45 AM
John sat down at the back facing the way they were going. He did up his seat belt and listened to the conversation for a bit before adding his thoughts into the mix "at the top you do have more freedom but that freedom his heavy with responsibility for the being under you"
Posted by: Ranma Nov 29 2013, 2:38 PM
"The prince is the only one allowed to sire freely. Every one else needs to ask permission. There are some other benefits, and it has its downsides, but being a low class neonate is just a poor place to be."
The limo started to drive and Devlin pulled a folder out from underneath his seat. After skimming through it he looked back at his new companions and then back at the contents of the folder.
"Alexander, it seems like you have some connections. That may be of use in a bit. We're headed towards the last place the previous party was seen."
Posted by: P-girl Nov 29 2013, 3:02 PM
"Whatever you say, dude." Alexander said, deciding to drop it. He didn't agree, but it wasn't worth fighting over, especially since they were now depending on each other.
"I know a few people, yes. And I know how to get lips flapping, too." Alexander couldn't hold back a tone of pride. He wasn't rich or influential, but he knew people and knew how to get to them.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Nov 29 2013, 6:43 PM
John looked towards the folder it was quite clearly important but he didn't want to push him. So decided to get a plan "What do you want me to do?" he asked Alexander
Posted by: P-girl Nov 29 2013, 7:00 PM
"What do you mean, what do I want you to do?"Alexander asked, not quite grasping how 'You have connections' went to 'I take your orders now' in John's head.
Posted by: Ranma Nov 29 2013, 8:17 PM
Devlin closed the folder with a grin and looked at John. "You're the muscle of course," he answered. "Don't get me wrong, You're definitely not the Grengel stereo type. You have accumulated a great amount of wealth and assets from your own honorable profession and have many other uses on this mission. .. but out of the three of us you'll be the most useful if a fight breaks out."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Nov 30 2013, 8:36 AM
"What I mean is that you know your connections who may not like to talk with two strangers around. So you may want us to stand back and act like we are not with you." John had never thought that he would be the muscle. 'breaks a lot of stereo types for accountants to' he added mentally
Posted by: P-girl Nov 30 2013, 9:31 AM
"Ah, like that." Alexander said. "Well, let's just first figure out WHO I need to contact and what questions I need to ask. Because this sort of behavior can easily backfire, y'know?" He explained. "Like, some people like for me to be completely open about it."
Posted by: Ranma Nov 30 2013, 2:27 PM
"Any strange activity raises a red flag. Strange meetings, shady looking people... vampire sitings. These guys aren't exactly worried about upholding the masquerad," Devlin said.
Posted by: P-girl Nov 30 2013, 3:12 PM
"They don't sound like the type you'd want to go toe to toe with..." Alexander said, a tinge of fear in his voice. Not upholding the Masquerade meant these guys pretty much would do whatever they want. And what they would do didn't sound very nice.
Posted by: Ranma Nov 30 2013, 5:25 PM
"That's why our mission is recon," Devlin said with a nod. "Hopefuly we won't see battle."
Posted by: P-girl Nov 30 2013, 9:24 PM
"Whew." Alexander said, leaning back. "I mean, I do have some talents in that regard, but they're more of the 'How do I get out this situation real fast?' variety. Then again, that might prove useful."
Posted by: Ranma Nov 30 2013, 11:40 PM
"That's why we were chosen," Devlin said with a nod. "We both rely on our wits, not our brawn. John over there has the brawn, but he's proven himself to be quite resourceful. We aren't looking for a battle, we're trying to find out where the enemy is hiding, and then we call in the big guns to flush them out."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 1 2013, 10:23 AM
John spoke not wanting to fight himself especially as they may be outnumbered. "Where did these reports originate?" he asked
Posted by: Ranma Dec 1 2013, 4:57 PM
"Kindred have been turning up dead," Devlin said. "Considering how heinous an act it is to kill another kindred, combined with the threat of facing the blood hunt, it's actually rare for someone to be reported as dead. Only the Sabbat kill freely."
((Blood Hunt - The blood hunt is when the elders mark someone for dead. Every vampire in the city is required to hunt that vampire down and kill him. If anyone aids the vampire, they are now being hunted as well. The blood hunt lasts forever and a new prince or elder may not end the blood hunt even if the old prince or elder has died. So if someone escapes the city before being killed, they should never come back.))
Posted by: P-girl Dec 1 2013, 10:38 PM
Heinous indeed....Unless it's the top brass. Then we just have to smile and take it.
Alexander's brow furrowed at this. But again, he kept quiet.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 2 2013, 12:07 AM
The limo finally came to a stop in a somewhat populated venue in the city. This was obviously the club and nightlife district, everyone seemed to be dressed for some sort of party or occasion. The driver got out and opened the passenger doors to let everyone out. He remained silent the entire time. The previous conversation he may or may not have heard was none of his business. Devlin stepped out from his side of the limo and straightened his tie.
"Well, you're up Alexander. Where to first?"
Posted by: P-girl Dec 2 2013, 8:00 AM
"The Velvet Night." Alexander said, getting out. "I've done some gigs there and I'm on good terms with the owner and some of the more... iffy patrons."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 2 2013, 8:33 AM
John got out looking around observing the other people. "right lead the way" he said to Alexander he had not been clubbing in a long time. So had no idea where this club was
Posted by: Ranma Dec 2 2013, 12:38 PM
"Sounds good," Devlin said with a nod. Devlin also stayed out of the club scene, so he was perfectly content with letting Alexander lead the way.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 2 2013, 12:46 PM
"Alright, just follow my lead." Alexander said, letting his walk become that more relaxed as they approached a small bar with a red neon sign that said 'Velvet Night', this was his terrain, the closest he got to a home. "Just chill. Unwind. Like you're doing this all the time. People won't look when you're having a good time." With that he opened the door with a slight flourish, the smell of cigarettes and whiskey immediately coming from the inside. "Man I missed that smell."
Posted by: Ranma Dec 2 2013, 12:54 PM
Devlin remained silent and followed Alexander's lead. He wasn't used to having "fun," but he would try his best to emulate it.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 2 2013, 4:10 PM
The place they entered looked straight out of a Film Noir. Dusky, small and personal with only a minimal amount of light. There was a small stage from which soft, jazzy tunes wafted into the air. Behind the bar stood a woman with an appearance that fitted right in, with black hair and blue eyes.
"Freya, darling." Alexander said.
"Hello there, Alex." The woman answered, her voice having a slight British accent. "Sorry, but we're booked this week so. Unless you want to take the stage during Open Mic Night, you can't play."
"No worries, that's not why I'm here." Alexander said, taking a stool. "As you can see, I brought some friends along and we'd like a talk with Mercurio."
"What for?" Freya asked, her voice dropping somewhat and her eyes gaining a hint of suspicion.
"Nothing that will get this place into trouble." Alexander assured.
((I... think this is where some dice-rolls should happen? I found one on the 'Random.org' site. Is that a good one?))
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 2 2013, 5:01 PM
John followed it seemed both him and Devlin was out of their comfort zone. He stood next to Alexander watching this woman Freya. Although he was trying to act like he had been here many times he most probably was obvious he was not used to this sort of thing

"If you say so, love. He's in the back, sipping on some gin. Last table to the left, can't miss him." Freya said.
"Aw, thanks, you're a sweetheart." Alexander said, smiling brightly. "How many drinks did he get?"
"Oh, no worries, he's just starting out." Freya said. "You three have fun."
"No problem." Alexander said, before gesturing Devlin and John to come closer.
"Mercurio's a friend of mine, knows his way around the... bad part of town. If someone can help us with this, it's him." He whispered.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 2 2013, 8:37 PM
"Fantastic," Devlin said with a pleasant smile. So far things were working out well. If Mercilurio had any information at all this trip could be considered a success.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 3 2013, 4:56 PM
John learned in closer and listened it all sounded posative so far. He just mearly nodded in responce to Alexander
Posted by: P-girl Dec 3 2013, 5:33 PM
"Alright, let's do this. You guys got names, right? Just in case." Alexander asked, walking to the back of the bar where a lone figure sat across a table, hunched over a glass of gin. Blue eyes dead, brown hair having a fair few streaks of gray. Life had not been kind to this man.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 3 2013, 6:12 PM
Devlin nodded as he followed Alexander. He would think of something.
((You can control him until the roll))
Posted by: P-girl Dec 3 2013, 6:39 PM
"Hey, Merc, how's it going?" Alexander said, taking a seat next to the other man, who looked up, eyes coming to life.
"If it isn't Alex. What are you doing here? Last time I heard about you, you were fifty miles up State."
"You know me. I like to stay unpredictable." Alexander answered. "Listen, I came here because I need to know a few things."
"That's why you got company?"
"Perhaps..." Alexander said, scratching the back of his head. "Some of their pals have gone missing and I figured you might know more 'bout that."
"Like that, huh?" Mercurio said, sighing and rubbing his face. "I don't know... "
"C'mon... you can trust me. When have I ever lied to you?" Alexander tried.
((I think that's where the dice roll should happen.))

((Botch- You needed a 7 or higher for this guy. Since you rolled six and below, and one was a "1" you critically failed and we are screwed unless we can think our way out of it.))
"I think you should leave...now," Mercurio said, suddenly feeling uncomfortable around Alexander. He lifted a hand to summon his bouncers, but seeing this, Devlin stepped forward.
"Mercucio," he said as he snapped his fingers. Mercucio instinctively snapped his head in the direction the sound came from qnd locked eyes with the young blue blood. "I suggest you obey Alexander."
((Dominate roll = intimidate + manipulation: 2, 2, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10

"Word is there's been a lot of suspicious activity going on at this new club that opened up, Outlanders. Apparently there's a gang in town that uses that as their hangout. They're all hush hush, but extremely brutal the rumors go. They don't let just anyone in though, it's members only," Mercucio said before slumping over a bit with a dazed look on his face.
"Thanks for the information Mercucio," Devlin said as he patted his shoulder. "You should rest a bit, I think you've had too much to drink."
Posted by: P-girl Dec 4 2013, 8:56 AM
Alexander just stood there, quite shocked and even more bummed out that his usual tactics didn't work.
"Man, that usually works..." He muttered, ego a little bruised.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 4 2013, 9:18 AM
John having watched everything spoke "Doesn't matter how we got it. We got what we needed"
Posted by: Ranma Dec 4 2013, 12:52 PM
"I'm sure he was just put off because of John and I. We probably look pretty suspicious in the club scene," Devlin said with a bit of a sigh. "Anywhere, you know where this club is?"
Posted by: P-girl Dec 4 2013, 12:59 PM
"Yeah. Tried to have them let me play, but they blew me off quickly. Something about my sound not fitting their atmosphere." Alexander said. "Never really got to see it inside. It's a few blocks away."
Posted by: Ranma Dec 4 2013, 1:06 PM
"Okay, but first we need to go shopping. The.suit is a bit stuffy," Devlin said as he turned towards the exit.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 4 2013, 1:27 PM
"Yeah, probably for the best if we want to blend in more." Alexander said, glad he didn't have to bring it up himself. "Tough you don't have to go overboard. You can probably still rock a suit. Just a little more laid back."
Posted by: Ranma Dec 4 2013, 1:47 PM
Devlin loosened his tie and unbuttoned the top 2, buttons on his shirt. Afterwards, as an afterthought, he undid the buttons on his suit jacket and wore it open. "Like this?" He asked.

"Much better." Alexander said, smiling. "The thing to remember is 'Attitude'." He said.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 4 2013, 4:11 PM
"Well, lets see if we can make it past the front door," Devlin smiled. Hopefully, we can smooth talk our way in. If we're right, and the sabbat run that club, we really don't want to draw unnecessary attention to ourselves. "
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 4 2013, 6:26 PM
"Well lets hope its not completely full of Sabbat" John said. Thinking their certainly was a high chance of that due to its exclusive membership
Posted by: P-girl Dec 4 2013, 6:31 PM
"Well, Outlanders it is." Alexander said. "Should've called it 'The lion's den'." He joked with a nervous laugh.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 4 2013, 6:53 PM
"Right," Devlin said with a nod. If its just a few blocks away we should walk. I don't know how they'd take a limo showing up at the door."
Posted by: P-girl Dec 4 2013, 7:11 PM
'Yeah... while it would leave an impact, it wouldn't exactly be discreet." Alexander agreed.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 5 2013, 3:09 AM
"I'm actually kind of excited," Devlin said. "I was a bit worried when I found out that Alphonse was pairing me with two neonates that I had never met, but I think we can make a fairly competent trio."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 5 2013, 8:45 AM
John was not sure that there competency as a trio could be confirmed so early on but so he could fit in he decided to add something posative "it certainly is looking posative"
Posted by: P-girl Dec 5 2013, 1:13 PM
"I'm all about good first impressions." Alexander said. "This might be the start of a wonderful friendship." He added jokingly.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 5 2013, 1:21 PM
"If this were a Disney movie I'd say that it was time for a musical number," Devlin joked.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 5 2013, 2:05 PM
This caused Alexander to laugh out loud. Devlin wasn't as stiff as he imagined once he got rolling. "Don't tempt me." He managed.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 5 2013, 6:14 PM
"Unfortunately you'd have to go solo, unless John here can sing, but I sing terribly out of key," Devlin chuckled.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 5 2013, 6:28 PM
John laughed at the disney comment before answering Devlin "Nope, I can not sing or dance"
Posted by: Ranma Dec 5 2013, 6:43 PM
"So, Alexander is singing solo then," Devlin nodded.
((We should probably do a tim skip))
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 5 2013, 6:49 PM
(thats ok with me)
Posted by: P-girl Dec 5 2013, 7:17 PM
"You'd be amazed." Alexander said. "Too bad I don't have my guitar with me."
((I'm good to go.))
Posted by: Ranma Dec 5 2013, 9:12 PM
The group stands at the entrance to the club. A bouncer with a body that screams steroids blocks the door. A few people exit the club just fine, but not too many seem to enter. Those that do enter seem to skip the line, and those that wait in line seem to be rejected instantly.
"Well, you're up. I don't really want to try dominating. If he's kindred that could cause problems for us."
Posted by: P-girl Dec 5 2013, 9:22 PM
"Alright, no pressure." Alexander said, stretching himself before confidently walking up to the bouncer.
"Heeeeey! Remember me?" He said.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 5 2013, 11:13 PM
"Of course not!" The muscle man grumbled. "Do you know how many people I deal with in a day? But I'll tell ya the same thing I probably told ya last time. You aren't getting in if you aren't on the list!"
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 6 2013, 8:01 AM
John watched this was not going to go well if things got violent. He hoped Alexander would be able to get them in but in case they couldn't he looked for another entrance from his position
Posted by: P-girl Dec 6 2013, 8:57 AM
Alexander's smily twitched slightly, but stayed on. Alright, different tactic. Something he usually didn't use because it always felt extremely tacky. But this was an emergency.
"But surely you can make an exception for a celebrity and his buddies? I know I'm not exactly Lady Gaga over here, but still, the name 'Angel Voice Tomero' counts for a lot in these parts, might be good for business if I put out a good word about this place on the streets." He tried.
((My apologies for that corny, CORNY nickname.

"I don't know..." the bouncer said while scratching his chin. "The boss man up stairs is pretty strict. He'd kill me if I screwed up!"
((Roll a wits and subterfuge))
((You succeeded, but this guy is really stubborn. You softened him up thougb))
Posted by: P-girl Dec 6 2013, 1:53 PM
"But imagine what he'll do if he finds out you let such a chance for this place to get even bigger pass by." Alexander tried.
((9 - 7 - 1))

"I don't know..."
((One more 6 roll))

John notices an alley way that could possibly lead somewhere.

"C'mon... I'll make it worth it, trust me."
((8 - 9 - 7 - 5 - 3 - 5))
Posted by: Ranma Dec 6 2013, 11:48 PM
"...Fine," The bouncer said as he stepped aside. "But if you get kicked out, I didn't let you in. You snuck in through that window around the side of the building. It's high up, but I'm sure you'll come up with a good excuse."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 7 2013, 8:52 AM
John was quietly impressed how Alexander had got them in from a seemingly impossible persition
Posted by: P-girl Dec 7 2013, 9:44 AM
"No worries. If it comes to that, I never even saw you." Alexander said, before entering, flashing a triumphant smile to John and Devlin.l
Posted by: Ranma Dec 7 2013, 8:07 PM
"Nice work," Devlin smiled. "Now, lets keep on guard. Keep your ears open, and look for an escape route if things go south."
Posted by: P-girl Dec 7 2013, 8:45 PM
"Got it. Might want to remember that window he was talking about." Alexander said.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 7 2013, 9:04 PM
"Right, lets try and find that window..." Devlin said as he looked around. "I don't see anything. Its pretty crowded in here... and loud."
The club itself was pretty crowded, and the lowest of degenerates seemed to make up the core of the club goers. The music was loud and grundgey, and the place reeked of sweat and body odor. The ladt club definitely had higher standards.
((Investigation and perception roll: 1 3 4 8 = fail. ))
Posted by: P-girl Dec 7 2013, 10:03 PM
"Yeah... I usually go to the more... classy joints." Alexander said, not holding back a sneer as he tried to scan his surroundings to the best of his ability. "Or at least the ones with better music."
((3 - 4 - 8 - 3))
Posted by: Ranma Dec 8 2013, 1:56 AM
Alexander notices a crahing sound coming from the restroom.
"I think we're a bit over dressed," Devlin sighed. Most of the club goers were wearing simple jeans and tank tops.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 8 2013, 9:19 AM
(4 2)
"yep we certainly are over dressed" John said looking for the window
Posted by: P-girl Dec 8 2013, 9:33 AM
"Maybe a little. This place has no ta-..." Alexanders head swung around towards a crashing sound. Restrooms. "You guys heard that?"
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 8 2013, 9:42 AM
"Yep I hear it" John said looking towards the restrooms
Posted by: Ranma Dec 8 2013, 6:52 PM
"Nope, I'm having trouble hearing anything in here," Devlin said.
((Marty failed. We both suffer from low dice rolls XD))
Posted by: P-girl Dec 8 2013, 8:44 PM
"I think we should check it out, just in case." Alexander suggested.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 8 2013, 8:49 PM
"Yeah, I think we should. I really don't think we should split up in here," Devlin said with a nod.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 8 2013, 9:21 PM
"Right. Let's do this, then. Might be nothing... but who knows. Only thing we've got." Alexander said, noticing he kept his sentences short. The place's atmosphere was agitating him.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 8 2013, 9:43 PM
With a nod that he realized no one in his group could probably see he headed towards the rest rooms.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 9 2013, 8:46 AM
John headed towards the restrooms. Keeping a close eye on what was going on it seemed like they were about to walk into trouble.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 9 2013, 8:59 AM
Alexander swiftly followed. Even if it was nothing, restrooms were usually a respite from the noise in these places.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 9 2013, 2:50 PM
Once everyone found their way to the restroom, there was in fact a window large enough for someone to crawl through should the need arise. The restroom itself was poorly kept however, and a putrid smell filled the air. No one with a nose would want to stay in this room for any extended amount of time.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 9 2013, 2:52 PM
"Well, there's the window." Alexander said, waving his hand in front of his nose. "Smells like someone died in here. Christ."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 9 2013, 4:47 PM
John looked at the window and as Alexander spoke something crossed his mind. He quickly glanced around before speaking quietly so it was just audible to Alexander and Devlin "Do you think this is where they have been killing people away from everyones view?"
Posted by: P-girl Dec 9 2013, 4:58 PM
"Doubt it. I mean, there's an open window right THERE. Not to mention it's a public restroom." Alexander said, not really buying it.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 9 2013, 8:22 PM
"Besides, when kindred die they turn to ash... unless they've been killing kine..." Devlin trailed off. "Okay, lets do some snooping."
Posted by: P-girl Dec 9 2013, 8:52 PM
"Just so you know, I ain't digging in no toilets." Alexander said, simply pulling open a bathroom stall, trying to find... something. The taught of using his Auspex ability crossed his mind, but the way the music was pumping trough even here and the horrid smell, he really didn't feel it would help much and probably even damage his hearing.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 10 2013, 1:47 AM
"Yeah, I don't think we're going to find anything in here," Devlin said as he left the restroom.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 10 2013, 9:13 AM
John was a bit disappointed his idea had been quickly squashed. The smell had to be in here for a reason but he was glad to leave this restroom so he followed Devlin out.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 10 2013, 9:14 AM
"Alright, so.... Anyone see the bar of this place? Might be a good place to start." Alexander tried, exiting the restroom as well.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 10 2013, 8:40 PM
"I think I saw something that vaguely resembled a bar in the back," Devlin yelled, trying to speak over the music.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 10 2013, 8:42 PM
"The back?" Alexander called back, pointing towards what he figured Devlin meant with his thumb.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 10 2013, 10:02 PM
"Yeah!" Devlin yelled as he nodded, "I think that's the way!"
Posted by: P-girl Dec 11 2013, 8:54 AM
Alexander just nodded and pointed, before heading to the direction Devlin suggested.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 11 2013, 9:13 AM
John followed silently watching the dancers while trying to see the bar. It certainly seemed like they were moving further into the lions den.

"Is that shipment ready?" The entire group could hear from across the bar, from a mangy looking individual.
"Yeah, it's ready. It's still at New York Harbor though. We'll be picking it up in a few hours."
"Good. Make sure it gets here safely. Things so far are going smoothly. We've had a few minor setbacks, but nothing that's forced us to shift our plans. Let's keep it that way."
Posted by: P-girl Dec 12 2013, 3:41 PM
"Did you guys...?" Alexander tried, knowing yelling might not be the best idea, and once more falling back on signing with his hands.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 12 2013, 3:50 PM
Devlin just nodded and gave a thumbs up.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 12 2013, 6:50 PM
John gave a nod as talking would not have been wise. It looked like the content of that delivery should be next on the agenda
Posted by: P-girl Dec 13 2013, 4:54 PM
"Alright, do we do this the bold way or the careful way?" Alexander asked. His first instinct was to simply follow this person, but that would require blending in. Something he wasn't too good at.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 13 2013, 6:43 PM
"We have to do it the careful way. Who knows how many they have" John said really hoping that it would be clear how many they were up against. Before it became too serious
Posted by: P-girl Dec 14 2013, 9:53 AM
"How do we do that?" Alexander asked. "We don't know where they'll pick it up and what it is."
Posted by: Ranma Dec 14 2013, 6:20 PM
"Well, we better make a decision fast," Devlin said. "They're leaving."
The two men started to head out of the club. Chances are, they were probably heading to wherever the "shipment" was.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 14 2013, 6:27 PM
"Well I think following them would be a good idea" John said quietly
Posted by: P-girl Dec 14 2013, 6:42 PM
"Alright, following it is." Alexander said, already moving towards the two.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 14 2013, 9:22 PM

The sabbat immediately felt like they were being followed and turned around to see if anyone was shadowing them. However, becausethe club was crowded the group was hard to spot.
((One more roll: 10 7))
Posted by: P-girl Dec 15 2013, 7:54 PM

(8, 5, 3, 10)
Posted by: Ranma Dec 16 2013, 3:39 PM
The group was able to hide and remain unseen. The two Sabbat eventually chalked it up as their imagination and continued on their way.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 17 2013, 10:17 AM
Alexander breathed a sigh of relief, as he let his body move to the beat in order to blend in. He didn't like this music and dancing wasn't his forte, but it was better then standing still. Still moving, he turned to Devlin and John.
"Okay, so maybe that wasn't the best idea." He said.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 17 2013, 6:33 PM
"Maybe not but we need to know what that delievery is" John said still talking as quietly as possible, so only Devlin and Alexander could hear
Posted by: Ranma Dec 17 2013, 8:36 PM
"We'll shadow him and see what happens," Devlin whispered. "We know that they are going to New York Harbor."
Posted by: P-girl Dec 17 2013, 8:52 PM
"How we gonna follow them?" Alexander asked. "I don't think they'll be going on foot and a limo's a bit hard to keep hidden."
Posted by: Ranma Dec 18 2013, 6:32 AM
"Then, do you want to just go to the harbor on our own? I mean, we could just snoop around," Devlin asked. "I mean, that is a valid option. At least we know where to look."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 18 2013, 9:20 AM
"We could do but I doubt its going to be a small harbor. So we will end up searching for a needle in a hay stack" John said still keeping his voice down
Posted by: P-girl Dec 18 2013, 10:09 AM
"At least it's the right haystack. And we know what needles to find for." Alexander told him. "Besides, it's probably our best bet."
Posted by: Ranma Dec 18 2013, 6:22 PM
"Then lets hurry to the limo, If all of us aren't for the sneaking idea we shouldn't do it," Devlin whispered.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 18 2013, 6:51 PM
"Alright, let's blow this joint. My head's really starting to hurt." Alexander said, already starting to move towards the exit.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 18 2013, 7:26 PM
Devlin followed close behind as he pulled out a cell phone and pressed the quick dial. "We're ready," he said to the limo driver.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 18 2013, 7:44 PM
John followed he didn't want to split up but it certainly seemed like they had under estimated the size of the task
Posted by: P-girl Dec 18 2013, 8:33 PM
Alexander got in, leaning his head back and closing his eyes.
"Christ, such places are the worst." He muttered to himself. "So much noise..."
Posted by: Ranma Dec 20 2013, 2:53 AM
"The New York Harbor," Devlin ordered the limo driver. "I agree, the stench alone makes me want to torch the place."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 20 2013, 8:21 AM
"It was deathening and smelly. Not pleasent at all" John said in aggreement
Posted by: P-girl Dec 20 2013, 11:49 AM
"It's not even that it was loud. I can handle loud if it's good music." Alexander said, rubbing his temples. "This was NOT good music. This was made to numb the senses and shatter the eardrums, rather then any artistic merit."
Posted by: Ranma Dec 20 2013, 8:18 PM
"I prefer classical and soft rock myself... and eighties for some reason," Devlin added the last part as an after thought.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 20 2013, 8:49 PM
"If not too picky. Tough a sweet riff and obvious passion usually helps." Alexander said.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 21 2013, 8:40 AM
"Anything with good lyrics and a nice tune. Thats the kind of music I like" John said wondering when they would arrive
Posted by: Ranma Dec 21 2013, 8:26 PM
The limo pulled into the harbor. There didn't seem to be any activities going on at the moment, but time would tell.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 21 2013, 9:01 PM
"I should invite you guys over for a gig sometime. Sounds like fun." Alexander said, before getting out and taking in the surroundings.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 22 2013, 2:17 AM
"Ill be sure to make room in my schedule," Devlin said as he exited the limo as well.
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 22 2013, 9:46 AM
"That would be nice. Just tell me when and I will find time" John told him looking at the harbor. It certainly looked big
Posted by: P-girl Dec 22 2013, 11:36 AM
"Alright, that's settled." Alexander said, taking a look around. "Want me to do an Auspex sweep?" He asked Devlin.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 23 2013, 2:14 AM
"Yeah, they may help us find whatever we're looking for faster," Devlin nodded.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 23 2013, 9:33 AM
"Alright, here goes." Alexander said, closing his eyes to let his hearing and smell rise and adjust to supernatural levels first, before opening his eyes, which now contained an eerie red glow, and scanning the area carefully.
((I don't know how canon it is for Auspex users to have glowing eyes, but for some reason, it stuck with me.))
Posted by: Ranma Dec 26 2013, 4:40 AM
Alexander could hear the men they were trying to shadow earlier speaking to one another.
"Are these the ones?"
"Yeah, we need to get them out of there before daylight. They won't like it too much if they have to stay hidden for another day."
"Yeah, I'm sure it's cramped in there. Poor guys.:
"How many this time?"
"At least 50 I'm thinking. There's about ten crates on board, and we usually fit five bodies in one crate."
"There were seven in the one I came in."
"Sucks to be you..."
"...yeah... Well, let's get to it then!"
Posted by: P-girl Dec 26 2013, 8:56 AM
"Christ...." Alexander muttered under his breath, the conversation giving him shivers, before he pulled himself out and looked at his two partners. "They're...they're here alright. A-and whatever the shipment is... it's alive." He looked down. "I'm personally thinking human trafficking of some sort."
Posted by: mightymarty2 Dec 26 2013, 9:33 AM
"If they are bringing in a live shipment do you know what it is or any idea how many?" John asked worried
Posted by: P-girl Dec 26 2013, 10:07 AM
"Fifty.... Five per crate... Didn't say what, but like I said, probably humans..." Alexander said, remembering the facts. "But that's just a guess on my part..."
Posted by: Ranma Dec 26 2013, 3:35 PM
"We really need to confirm what's in those crates," Devlin said. "It seems weird that they'd traffic humans. It's not like they need the food source in this city. We need to get closer."
Posted by: P-girl Dec 26 2013, 6:42 PM
"I guess..." Alexander said. "I probably shouldn't jump to conclusions..." He said, before shaking his head and trying to discern from which way he heard the voices, before he pointed. "They came from that direction."
Posted by: Ranma Dec 26 2013, 8:17 PM
((Dex and stealth check = 6, 10))
Devlin nodded and started to sneak in the direction that Alex pointed. He started to make out the forms of the sabbat as he got closer. So far they didn't seem to notice him.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 26 2013, 8:22 PM
Alexander quietly followed, keeping his distance a little for safety in case they got caught.
((I'm assuming same roll (Dexterity + Stealth), feel free to correct; 5, 2, 4))

John followed as quietly as he could
Posted by: Ranma Dec 27 2013, 6:37 PM
((P-girl, you missed it by 1 point T_T))
"Shh... I hear something!" One of the men said to the other.
"What is it?"
"I don't know. Let's look around."
"They heard us," Devlin whispered."
Posted by: P-girl Dec 27 2013, 7:18 PM
"Dammit...." Alexander cursed under his breath, before slowly distancing himself from the others. If one of them was being found out, the others could get away.
Posted by: Ranma Dec 27 2013, 8:37 PM
((This is the start of combat, Roll 1d10 and then add your Dexterity and Wits to it))
((Devlin = 8 + 2 + 3 = 13))
((Enemy1: 8 + 3 + 3 = 14))
((Enemy2: 9 + 3 + 3 = 15))
"There they are!" One of the men yelled. "Get them!"
Both men ran towards the group at break neck speeds.
Posted by: P-girl Dec 27 2013, 10:04 PM
((1 + 3 + 2= 6 (My Dice are trying to kill me.)))
Alexander fell backwards, as he tried to move. This was not a great start now that things would be getting hectic.

((Yes, yes they are))

(8+2+3=13)
John prepared for the fight this was the part he was expect to excel at
Posted by: Ranma Dec 28 2013, 8:16 PM
(( Okay, now everyone states their action in reverse order so that those with better rolls can react properly. So the order will be pgirl, me and marty, and then the villainS. AND THEN those actions take place in the order of the rolls. You may abort your action to defend if you so wish when someone attacks you. Marty i suggest you spend a bloodpoint and use the claw ability your discipline gives you.))
Posted by: P-girl Dec 28 2013, 9:20 PM
((Alexander's action would be to spend a blood point on Celerity to get up, suckerpunch one of the enemies and then distance himself from said enemy, if that's possible.))
Posted by: Ranma Dec 29 2013, 4:43 AM
((Yes, however, the way moves or (multiple actions) work is like this. You say you're making a multiple action. You subtract the amount of dice from your roll equal to the number of turns you are are making, and then one more dice per turn. You make your first turn, and then after everyone has gone, your next turn goes through, and so on, and so on. Celerity ignores the dice limit rule, and you just sacrifice blood. I believe your celerity is at 2 right now. So you'd use your first turn to actually get up (If you like you can try rolling Dexterity + Athletics at a difficulty of six to get up and attack on the first turn, but if you fail you have to wait until your second turn to get up and can't attack on that turn), and then after everyone has gone, at the very end, you'd use your next two turns before we all roll initiative again. Now, you going last, you'd use all 3 anyway XD
So on your turn I'll let you choose to roll or not to get up. The way your rolls are going right now...))
((To clarify, if you spend the blood point, you get 3 actions. You can get up, attack, and then distance yourself. Or you can try to get up and attack with a dice roll, attack, and then distance yourself... Just remember, none of us are armed exactly, and you would be rolling dexterity and brawl to make any unarmed attack. Damage goes off your strength. You roll one dice per point of strength you have + 1 dice for every successful dice rolled to hit after the first success.))
((Say your rolled 3 dice to see if you hit. All of the dice succeed. You would roll your strength + 2 more dice to see how much damage you do.))

Seeing the gengrel take down his companion the remaining Sabbat turned his attention to John and attempted to stab him in the chest. However, he was so shaken up upon seeing his friend suddenly meet his final death he missed the stab completely.
"S-stay away from me!" He yelled in desperation.
((Kk Marty, roll your dex and brawl. Anything 6 or over is a success. Anything after your first success is added to your damage dice which is your strength + 1. Rolling a 1 cancels out a sucess.

Devlin made yet another attempt to strike at the frenzied vampire, but his unskilled punches just seemed to bounce off the kindred's tough skin.

So you only need to spend 3 bp to heal yourself, leaving you at 4.
You could take 4 bp from me, putting you at 8bp, making your next feed easy on you.
That would leave me with with 4 bp, but with my Herd *** I have 15 vessels I can drink from at home.))
"Yes, I'm glad we made it all out of that in, mostly, one piece," Devlin said as he bit his wrist and made a small cut on his arm for Alex to drink from. "After Alex is done feeding we should definitely check those crates."

"Right... right..." Alexander said, kneeling down. He took a hold of Devlin's wrist and drank quite deeply, his gashes closing up. Making sure he didn't drain Devlin completely, tough he admitted it was hard to resist. "Thanks man." He said after having his fill, wiping his lips with his thumb and licking it clean, not willing to waste a drop. "You're gonna be okay?"
((Alright, so that leaves...
Blood Pool: 8
Health: [][][][][][][]
I'll try to keep a closer look on it in the future.))

John watched this was a bit crazy one fight with two vampires had left them in a mess. If this got really messy would they be able to cope. "Lets try and avoid any more combat" he surgested

BP: ***
After drinking Devlin's blood, Alex feels a connection with him. Just a slight tug in his subconscious telling him that Devlin is a friend and can be trusted.
"Yeah, I'll be fine," Devlin said, using up a bit of vitae to close his own wound. "I have vessels back home that can get me back up to tip top shape in no time. More importantly, let's check those crates. Can you hear or smell anything?"
((The crates are filled with Sabbat.))

"Yeah, hold on, just let me...." Alexander said, taking in a whiff as he extended his senses, before looking at the other two, alarmed. The same smell as the two vampires they just dusted and the same subtle, connecting sounds. Both sensations far stronger then what they just fought. "Sabbat." He said, more then a little jumpy. "They're filled with Sabbat."

Devlin entered the ship and searched around for anything he could use.
( 1 4)
Above deck he couldn't find anything so he went to the engine room to look for some gasoline.
(5 8 )
He was able to find exactly what he was looking for and came out with the gas and a book of matches.

"Sabbat. How many?" John asked by the look on Alexanders face it was a significant number
Posted by: P-girl Jan 22 2014, 7:45 PM
"Probably enough to make me REALLY not want to go in there." Alexander said, before spotting Devlin with the matches. "Ah, so that's how we're going to deal, huh? Light 'em straight up?"

"Well, yes..." Devlin said. "Who knows how long they've been in there? I don't want a 20 to 30 sabbat to frenzy and diablerize us."
Devlin began go coat the crates with the gasoline.
"We had a hard enough time with two, let alone this many. So I vote we let them burn."
((Diablerize: The act of sucking a fellow kindred dry, and supposedly drinking the soul as well. You gain the powers of the vampire you absorbed, but they suffer worse than final death. Their soul is gone. It's one of the greatest crimes in the Camarilla))
