 It is early spring.  A great storm has worked it's way east through the Mediterrainian, chased by a flock of international flights.  Diplomats and reporters head for the peace confrence on the Azores, soldiers go home.  The War is over.

 You  on the other hand, make for the center of the Sea, the island of Malta.

Alex Barracks recieved instructions from a man claiming to be a representative of his government in exile.  He spoke quickly, left quickly, and gave you a ticket to Malta.

The tatters of that same goverment came too for Daniel Durand, took him from his handlers who watched, slightly relieved, as the anoymous men escorted him to a submarine hiding beneath the Antarctic ice.

Kayn Speirs knew this wasn't a normal construction contract the moment he saw his supposed employer.  An obviously military man, he sized up the 'Bomb suit' in his luggage with a single glance and then slapped a custom's clearence sticker over the lot.  Maybe taking a contract in Africa wasn't such a good idea.

Felix Urd saw the ripples in the market.  He knew this peace'd soon run him out of bussiness.  Of all the men here, he choose this path himself.  Obliquely, carefully, he advertised his willingness to participate.  It had been a shock though, when they (who ever 'they' were) asked him to arrive in person.  His private jet took him there.

Alexander Russo had it the easiest.  THe Godfather had called him up.  They'd talked for a bit. (The Godfather felt the Alex oughta have a kid one of these days.)  The the Godfather had spoken of investments and assets, and then told Alexander to act in the Godfather's interest.  Then he'd been handed a large breifcase to take along on the plane ride.  It was full of money, but unlocked, because the Godfather trusted Russo.

Issac Dien was a big fish that was left flopping around.  Someone felt him gasping, came looking for him, found him and put him on a flight.

 Alex Barracks:

 Spoiler
You land in Malta.  The only interesting thing on the way over was a trio of men sitting several rows behind you.  You use your glasses to run their faces through some recognition software, and pick up two of them in a government database.  Nothing special, yet.  The third has yet to yield a hit.  A tour guide type greets you as you pick up your luggage with a neatly lettered sign reading 'Alex Barracks.'  He takes you to a tall office building, points you in the direction of the lobby and leaves.

 Daniel:

 Spoiler
Your escorts take you all the way to Malta, to a van, and then hand you off to a different person.  You can feel he's a psionic.  He takes you to a tall office building, points you in the direction of the lobby and leaves.

Oh, and you've been having strange dreams lately.

 Issac:

 Spoiler
Someday, someone tossed a plane ticket into your hat.  As you arrive in the airport, a tour guide type greets you with a neatly lettered sign 'Issac Dien.' He takes you to a tall office building, points you in the direction of the lobby and leaves.

Oh, and you've been having strange dreams lately.

 Alexander:

 Spoiler
There is a driver waiting for you at the airport.  He takes you to a tall office building, points you in the direction of the lobby and leaves, though he keeps the breifcase of cash in his car.

 Kayn Speirs:

 Spoiler
You land in Morroco to do the work as expected, but you can feel people watching you every second of it.  It was a condemed office building, LUSAn shell took out one of four load bearing columns.  It'd been jury rigged to stability but it was time to scrap the thing and start fresh.  One day, after the spectacular controlled demolition, your employer approached you with a plane ticket. "Orders from up on high," he said. The men behind him, also obviously ex-military, agreed that you should go, and walked you to the plane.

After you land, a tour guide type greets you with a neatly lettered sign 'Kayn Speirs.'  He takes you to a tall office building, points you in the direction of the lobby and leaves.

 Felix Urd:

 Spoiler
A limo is waiting for you as ou step down from your jet.  You tell the driver the adress you were given and he takes you to a a tall office building.

ooc:
Alright, first to post is first to the lobby.  Meet and greet time.

[User]
 The Engineer

Kayn walked into the building and sighed in appreciation as a wave of air conditioned air hit his face. He was tall, 6'3, and wiry. He wore a black dress shirt and his nicest brown pant- he thought he should probably look good.

Frowning slightly he ran a hand through his now long blond hair. That was what you did right? You wore nice clothes for interviews like this. If anyone saw him, they would see a good looking, tall tanned man with long hair. Maybe a surfer in his off time.

Few saw Kayn and thought  clone , but that was what he was. A machine bred for killing. He smiled slightly at the thought... he was pretty good at that. But, after the war, staying in the UAL had seemed like a mistake. He had signed his relief papers and never looked back...

[User]
 The Academic

Alex was wearing his suit, Brown Tweed and Faded green Elbow Patches. He had half a dozen of them. They could be quite warm, but they were almost part of the uniform of his profession. The tall, slightly awkward looking man didn't look all that out of place.

He wandered into the lobby, sitting down in his chair. He checked the search of the gentleman that had been behind him, but nothing had come up yet. He sighed, and pull up a newspaper on the Glasses display, intending to read until the people who had offered him this job showed up.

[User]
 The Madman

   Isaac sighs quietly as he walked into the Lobby. A posh hotel, joy, food for the low low price of a weeks work and security ready to throw out anyone who didn't look rich enough.

   And if there's one thing Issac didn't look, it was rich. He was wearing a shabby coat with a few obvious patches, with a shirt and pants to match.The cap just large enough to make his face hard to make out pretty much completed that hobo image. Under that was the armor and weaponry he inherited form the war, but no-one ever remembered that.

 Taking a sit in one of the corners of the lobby, he grabbed a newspaper and got ready to wait ntil whoever had given him the ticket showed up with an explanation.

[User]
 Dr Andrew Price:

 Spoiler
Of everyone here you are most dedicated to the job ahead, and probably most informed.  Three weeks ago,  Jacob Vaughn Jr. called you into his office.  Legendary philanthropist and son of a legendary philanthropist, he quietly laid out for you the nature of the mission ahead: the world needed disarmament, and he knew a group that was willing to take part.  He want's you to join them, and help.

He did, however, warn you not to trust the people who would be your commanders.  You are, he says, instructed to follow your own consience and obey your responsibilities as a doctor and aid worker.  Then he hands you a plane ticket to Malta (actually a layover for an aid flight to the Carribean) and a time and adress that leads you to an office building.

[User]
 The Doctor
  Can it be real?

Dr. Price's mind was racing as he approached the building.

  Could the right people finally be taking action to stop the madness?  People with power, influence, wealth?

He wasn't walking easily yet, still sore from hours spent jammed up against crates of relief supplies on the flight from Mumbai.

  Usually the people who actually  can  make the world a better place are too busy destroying it to care.

Upon reaching the lobby he heads directly for the softest chair he can find.

  But it's Jacob Vaughn, Jr.  He wouldn't send me here if it weren't for real.

Dropping his backpack to the floor, Dr. Price sits down and begins to massage his neck and shoulders the best he can.

  So be it.  Just wish I could get out of these scrubs and take a shower.  Really should have changed before the flight.

You aquisition was a simple one.  Someone needed some muscle, came looking, and handed you a wad of cash with more on offer.  They took you to an airstrip, from there to Malta.  Now he, the pilot, and a few other passengers, are approaching an office building.  They point you to the lobby, and then head around the backdoor.

[User] Brad walks into the lobby.  He doesn't appear to be armed, in fact he appears as a civilian in every possible way, except for the way he looks at people and the area around him.  Its as if he's evaluating everything and everyone around him.  He seems satisfied with the situation as he stands still, waiting.  He says nothing.

[User]
 Those of you who watch the street note two cars pulling in, dropping off a single passenger, and then heading to the backside of the building.  Moments later, many of the cars sent to pick you up can be seen driving away.  Moments later, a group walks into the lobby from an interior door.  At the fore are a man (Early fourties, tall, Caucasian, military bearing, brunette buzz, casual dress for the weather) and a women (Early thirties, short, African, military bearing, kinky black hair buzzed short, gloves and a coat over a long skirt).  They join you in mismatched chairs around the lobby.  They are followed by a trio.  One (Deep robes, average height) stands to the left, silent.  A man (twenties, average height, Indian, neat haircut, bussiness suit) stands to the right. The man in the center (Late thirties, average height, Caucasian, blonde, bussiness suit) clears his throat.

 Ladies, gentlemen.  You may or may not know why you are here.  But you  are  here.  No matter if you were sent, sought us out or were sought out in turn, by being here, you step over a line.   His voice is oddly accented, but sounds... French.   We are a careful, clandestine group.  We have a specific goal and we have reason, one way or another, to believe you too support that goal.

We wish to destroy a threat to humanity.  All threats.  Recent years have seen both the rapid proliferation of Mass Destruction Weapons, and the failure of the doctrine of MAD as a deterent.  No nation will agree to unilateral disarmament, no talks between nations for multilateral disarmament seems... likely to succeed, to say the least.  Mutual disarmament must be forced upon the world, and we intend to do that.
 Welcome to our little group.  You,  he indicates the PCs,  will be our field agents. These two,  he indicates the two that joined you in the chairs, who nod,  will be your pilots, and part of your links to us,  he gestures to his right and left,  who will direct, fund, and assist your actions.  We must leave now.   He turns to the pilots.   Do not let them stay to long here, but leave several hours apart, come the time.   He and his two companions leave quickly, out a third door.

The two left in the room share a look and then stand themselves.  The man speaks first, in a neutral American accent.   Ahh, well.  Umm... you can call me Diamond Ace, my friend here is Fallen Falcon.  Uh, we each have a mission to give you and official documentation for flights out of here and to the location needed.  It is up to who you follow.

The mission I have been authorised to breif you on and assist with is an expidition to a Mediterrainian Island.  A research facility of unknown providence was set up there in the past year, but last report have the island flooded by zombies.  No official government has yet to claim the site as their own, nor made any attempt to liberate it.  However, the place does have several automated defenses that demand a small strike team.  It promises a hot landing and lots of zombie shooting.  It's a target of opportunity, we don't know what we may or mya not find, but if we wait to long, someone else, perhaps whoever setup the labs, might move in.   He nods at his counterpart.

The woman, in slight more exotic tones, speaks quickly.   I've been authorized to fly you to Paris.  The UNE intelligence agencies have a few files our organizers wish taken, for reasons they refuse to specify.  The op is still highly fluid, but I can provide you with the building and location within that building where the files are being held, as well as a general information dossier of the building.

Kayn Spiers:

 Spoiler
(Early fourties, tall, Caucasian, military bearing, brunette buzz, casual dress for the weather) is also (looks a lot like certain NAC Air Force clones.)  Possibly an early model?

Dr Andrew Price:

 Spoiler
(twenties, average height, Indian, neat haircut, bussiness suit) looks vaguely familiar.

Isaac

 Spoiler
(Deep robes, average height) Gives you deja vu.  Oh, and he and (Late thirties, average height, Caucasian, blonde, bussiness suit) are both psionics of fairly high caliber. (+++ or more)

Indus

 Spoiler
These guys were on the plane with you, and 'Diamond Ace' was the pilot on the way in.

All, OOC-:

 Spoiler
Okay choose.

Job number one will be pretty hack-n-slash happy with bits of mystery and some survival horror action if you screw up.

Job two will be very... Ocean's Eleven and open ended.  It'll be down to you to gather info on the target and then plan the heist.  Or you could try walking in guns blazing, just remember that all actions in this game will have consequences.  Some good, some bad.

Also:  NPC's are fair game.

[User]
 "At least I know you can fly decently, 'Diamond.'"  Brad says quietly.   "And a mysterious facility with zombies of all things sounds like a fun shooting gallery.  We'll need some heavy artillery, though."

Brad sizes up the others in the group, trying to figure out who he could rely on to be a decent combatant, and who would be clearly in the wrong place if put in a firefight.

 "And what do you mean by automated defenses?  Any specifics?"

[User] Dead man's booby traps.  Mostly SAM's that are firing at anything without the proper identification codes. The sea landing's similarly unattractive. Make's it hard to drop in with any plane larger than my good old VTOL Pelican.  Max seating of ten plus baggage.

 Alrighty chere, here goes! I summon Subtitoad from my hand. Substitoad, work your magic!  Subtitoad turns Star Boy into a Dupe Frog. Dupe Frog becomes another Dupe Frog, which adds a Swap Frog to Mary's hand. Dupe Frog becomes a third Dupe Frog, which adds Treeborn Frog to her hand. Treeborn Frog is discarded to Special Summon Swap Frog, who sends a T.A.D.P.O.L.E. to the graveyard from the deck. Dupe Frog is croaked into a Des Frog, which adds a Des Frog to her hand. Swap Frog swaps itself for the Des Frog in her hand, which special summons a third Des Frog with its effect.  And now I end this, chere. I play Des Croaking, which wipes your field clear. I then play Solidarity, and all my frogs attack directly. End game.

 Hey, y'know the bit where you used Substitoad's ability?  Divine Wrath . I discard another Sanctuary.
When Substitoad tries to turn Star boy into something else, a strike of lightning destroys it just after it destroys Star Boy. Leaving your field empty.
 So, what else'll you do this turn?

((Time to figure out what my hand was before 😛. I have, like, twelve different ways of doing what I just did, so its really a minor setback.))

 Finally, a monster! I summon  Zeradias, Herald of Heaven  and have him attack you directly.
A lance-wielding angel appears and attacks. And is stopped by that very annoying trap card.

 You played a pretty good game yourself, chere. Glad you enjoyed yourself.

((That was interesting, though you had terrible luck, it seems. All I needed to OTK was a Substitoad, but a lot of my cards would have bought me still more time until I could pull it off. And with Wetlands and Solidarity, this still makes a not-bad beatdown deck, even though the core beatdown cards for Frogs aren't present. Any tips for the deck? I thought Exodius was a pretty inspired addition on my part, and it also links the deck back to Shadow, but I'm thinking of replacing Treeborn Frog with another Exodius. Thoughts?))

[User]
 ((Well, to be honest, I'm not really sure what Exodius brings. I can see how he gets any previously used frogs back tot he deck, but then, he's pretty much a useless, 0 attack... Thingy. Treeborn Frog is generally more useful, so I'd keep that myself.
Any thoughts on how to improve this deck then?))

[User]
 Well, Subtitoad, T.A.D.P.O.L.E. and Swap Frog can easily dump a bunch of monsters in the graveyard to super-buff Exodius for one big direct attack. And since he's removed from play upon destruction, he doesn't interfere with Solidarity.

On your deck, I would consider throwing in a couple of copies of Ultimate Offering, in case you want to throw up the Honest/Athena OTK. Mysterious Puppeteer then follows, since he's always nice to put with Ultimate Offering, and also can give you a bunch of life points with the Athena exchanging ability. Ultimate Offering also lets you summon Gellenduo and then tribute them for a seven star in the same round. If I think of anything else, I'll tell you.

May I ask how many normal monsters you have in your deck Shadow. Because those are the only ones the power up Exodius when in the grave.

Just returning the favor. And yeah that makes him stink in most decks. I'll probably never play him cause I rarely play normal monsters.


[User] You awaken in the center of a 10ft by 15ft room with stone walls, ceilings, and floors. A torch is burning on the wall behind you, while the other three walls have closed, metal doors with brackets allowing you to bar them from the inside. Unfortunately, only two metal rods are lying on the floor.

[User] Once you open the door, you see a short, narrow, unlit, hallway, five feet in width, and twenty in length. Just over halfway down, a door leads to the left, while at the end, another door leads straight ahead.

[User] Owynn investigates the nearer door, not wishing to get backstabbed before he can do anything.

[User]
 In a particularily messy 15ft by 15ft room, you see two zombie kobolds feasting on the remains of one of their brethren. There is a door on the far side of the room.

Owynn's warpike is at the ready before even his own ability to think is, ready to strike either zombie if it gets too close.

Edit: Thank you for beginning further updates on my adventure!🙂

[User]
 The little zombies look up inquisitively at this new meal approaching, and head to greet you.

Thanks to your reach weapon, doing so provokes an AoO, so have fun!

[User]
 Owynn decides that what they'd like even more than a mouthful of human is a steel sandwich.

  AoO 1  - (1d20+4)[ 22 ]
  Damage  - (2d6+4)[ 13 ]
  AoO 2  - (1d20+4)[ 11 ]
  Damage  - (2d6+4)[ 11 ]

[User]
 You drop one zombie as they charge(sorry for being unclear, they have to charge to get an attack this round), but the remaining one gets to you and tries to pin you to the wall.

Spear: (1d20+1)[ 16 ]
Dmg: (1d6-1)[ 2 ]

[User]
 Owynn curses as the kobold gets a decent stab in, then steps back to bring his warpike to bear again, in his finishing technique.

((Five-foot step back, and attack with Steely Strike.))

  Steely Strike Attack  - (1d20+8)[ 28 ]
  Steely Strike Damage  - (2d6+4)[ 12 ]

Ah, right.  Well, Owynn will take a moment to collect himself (recovering maneuvers and, hopefully, hit points), collect the funds, and move to the next door, opening it as swiftly as possible, to avoid giving any enemies within any time to prepare.

You enter this room with no foes in sight (the k5 one)

[User] Owynn wraps back around to the N6 door, and opens it.

[User] Thats the door you came in from

[User] Very well, then.  He enters O7.

[User] Peering into room O8, you first hear, then sneakily spot without being seen, a dwarf in full platemail with a dwarven waraxe. His back is turned to you, and he's currently in square N9

[User]
 Owynn readies his warpike for any aggressive movement toward him by the dwarf, then calls out in Common.

"Hello, there!  Are you trapped here as well?"


[User] You awaken in the center of a 10ft by 15ft room with stone walls, ceilings, and floors. A torch is burning on the wall behind you, while the other three walls have closed, metal doors with brackets allowing you to bar them from the inside. Unfortunately, only two metal rods are lying on the floor.

[User]
 Haltoc casts Devil's Sight and sets his feet in the Child of Shadow stance.

He then bars the eastern door and then the southern, and opens the door to the north.

(How long/heavy are the bars? I neglected to bring something to poke stuff with.)
Edit:
" Surely this is a test set for me by my deity. "

[User]
 They're 6ft long, and they weigh about 15 lbs.

 You enter a 10ft wide room, 30 ft long, with another wooden door on the far side. In the room is four kobolds(F1, E1, E2, C2). A small fire is flickering on the floor(D2). You have surprise.

[User]
 Eldritch Blast at the one in F1.
Attack: (1d20+4)[ 16 ]
Damage: (1d6)[ 5 ]

Initiative: (1d20+4)[ 5 ]

[User]
 You drop him swiftly with your blast, and the survivors react with surprise and alarm.

Init, from closest to furthest:
 (1d20+1)[ 20 ]
 (1d20+1)[ 15 ]
 (1d20+1)[ 10 ]

[User]
 The E1 kobold rushes up to you(to H1), and attempts to stab you with his spear.

Spear:  (1d20+1)[ 9 ]
Dmg:  (1d6-1)[ 2 ]

The E2 kobold can't get into combat easily, so he readies an action to strike you if you come near.

The slinger fires a bullet off at you from across the room.

Sling:  (1d20+3)[ 23 ]  (You get a bonus +4 ac vs this attack for being in melee)
Dmg:  (1d4-1)[ 3 ]

[User]
 Slinger rolls a nat 20, and pulls max damage(sorry, should have been 1d3-1, mistyped. Thus, only 2 base damage from him).

Confirming the crit: (1d20+3)[ 4 ]  (You get a bonus +4 ac vs this attack for being in melee)
Crit Dmg:  (1d3-1)[ 1 ]

[User]
 (Sorry, I didn't see that this had updated.)

5 foot step to J2, draw my dagger, and Eldritch Blast on the sling kobold.

Attack:  (1d20+4)[ 24 ]
Damage:  (1d6)[ 4 ]

[User] Roll to confirm crit:  (1d20+4)[ 10 ]

[User] I also declare my dodge on the kobold in H1.
