Re: [GURPS Horror] Solar Powered OOC
JoAnn has 0% chance of Escaping the modern handcuffs (DX-4 with a -5 penalty). I mean I guess she would have an effective DX 1 chance of escaping but the lowest I can roll is 3. So she's stuck. I have an idea of how to get the lockpick out but it's so super-cringe and ridiculous I won't go there. Not yet anyway. Hopefully AdamSpeg can get lucky here ....

Re: [GURPS Horror] Solar Powered OOC
Well, if you can't slip the cuffs, or get the lockpicks, you could try breaking them somehow...
Now, for anyone who reads the paper found on the dead man, this is what it says;
Spoiler: STANDING ORDERSMemorize every ****ing letter of this, *******. These are orders straight from the elders themselves.
We have prepared too long and hard for you morons to screw this up now. You get your rear in gear and find that bastard who stole the recipe book. Nail him to a wall and flay his guts open with hot knives, you understand? We can’t proceed without the book, and I will not be denied my revenge. I will become the eternal blazing star if I have to strangle every son-of-a-bitch in this redneck ****hole. That’s priority one for all of us.
Second priority, we need more juice to feed the fire. We’ve got roadblocks set up all over the county, nobody is getting out of here alive unless we say so. So expect more captives and dead coming your way, be ready to handle them. That means you replace those cheap crap handcuffs - a handsaw could cut through them. Don’t worry, we’ll get some good ones from the cops in a bit. In the meantime, keep an eye on the prisoners and make sure no-one gets away. The others have their own captives to deal with, so put on your big boy pants and prove to me that your ****-kicker ass is worth a damn.
When you have business handled over there, you join up with the rest of us and help hunt down the thief and our book. We suspect the thief could have gone to The Jolly Roadhouse in Zidane, or the old hedge maze monument in Pollaxe. We got extra security on the Splithair Mountain shrine, just in case. We know he definitely went to that motel in Redfield (Joey’s on it), the Quentin Woods Campground rented cabin (we screwed up there, made too much noise) and one of our hideouts at Pollaxe. NO MORE MISTAKES.
Keep the map handy, call the doc’s number if something comes up. We got Charlie working at the gas station on Ingrid Road for the next two days, he’ll mark the juice boxes. Sam is running the lab in the old school, he’ll keep the stuff secure.
Remember, all eyes upon us shall be burned out, so say the elders.Anachronism will never high-light the folly of my convictions!

I'll use her Intuition here: she needs to know her next best move given the bad situation.

Re: [GURPS Horror] Solar Powered OOC
You guys have the cuffs still around your wrists, but you can move your hands without trouble.
Now, how do you plan to escape the basement?Anachronism will never high-light the folly of my convictions!

Re: [GURPS Horror] Solar Powered OOC
JoAnn is mostly following Dave and Jake's lead but also trying to figure out who kidnapped them.
Edit: I think JoAnn made her Climb roll?
Edit2: I think she made the Perception roll?Last edited by Vorpal Glaive; 2023-11-08 at 01:11 PM.

Re: [GURPS Horror] Solar Powered OOC
You're all out of the basement.
Anyone want to try a Scrounging or Search roll?
Or go outside?
Or look around the cabin's other rooms?Anachronism will never high-light the folly of my convictions!

Re: [GURPS Horror] Solar Powered OOC
Sorry guys I'm trying to roleplay JoAnn's nosiness and professional responsibility? She's a reporter

Re: [GURPS Horror] Solar Powered OOC
I'd like to point out you can get bonuses to plenty of skill rolls by taking extra time.
If you can spare taking more time.
Still, it might help if you ever need to roll Search or Lockpicking in the future.Anachronism will never high-light the folly of my convictions!

From where we are in the house can Joann see other rooms or a kitchen?

Re: [GURPS Horror] Solar Powered OOC
If your character tries to check out the rest of the cabin and look for anything of note, that will be a roll against Observation, Search and other relevant skills you have and want to try.
Base time is 5 minutes.Anachronism will never high-light the folly of my convictions!
