As me instead of Beats. Aman's plan is prob the most solid. Split them up and attack suddenly when they are separated. The issue becomes planning for those shifting demon girls, we have to assume she can summon assistance within a very short time. So Blitz her but keep a locked portal open the whole time to allow easy retreat.

B&B are the more difficult ones, I keep getting wierd suspicions that even when 'They' are there, that it isn't really them and we would just destroy some remote piloted avatar flesh bag thing... Maybe I just got more paranoid since I started GMing myself

It's definitely possible, possession has always been a very prominent power in the WoD series, i'm pretty sure all the races and factions have access to it in some form or another.

I've done it a couple of times with you guys in vampire even.

If only I had gone matter instead of forces I could steal it through a scrying window instead of using a portal...

Technically speaking I'm pretty sure Emend could scry and hack it using his space/forces combo without ever needing to touch it.

So, just waiting to see if Emend and "the rest" (haha) want to try anything else to get new leads.

If not, or they don't pan out, my next major update will throw out the next big plot hook, but won't occur for another day or so (in-game).

I'm thinking try to trace the limo's plates to whatever company it was rented from (assuming a rental), see who rented it and then find the employee driving the limo and get what we can out of him.

Beats will try scrying on the flesh monsters a few times but mostly concentrating on healing and purging radiation damage from himself

It doesn't really fit in right at the moment, but Beats still hasn't had the chance to scry in on the vampires' underground haven to see what became of the giant flesh monsters yet.

"It could, if they can somehow control them, or if the traps don't trigger," Emend replies. "We should investigate the Georgetown University killings. It might gives us some clues about who, or what, we're dealing with."

That's a good idea, just need some in character consensus for me to move it forward. :)

Hmm... It seems I have freeze-dried a part of my thumb, when a faulty propane valve sprayed liquid propane across it. Right now, it's like a one and a halfinch length of leather on my thumb, rather than skin. I imagine it will blister up at some point like a burn.  :(

Actually...

Keep a close eye on it for colour and texture changes as it could develop into a form of frostbite that kills that section of skin if it was cold enough to form ice crystals in the smaller capillaries

I feel like you should go to a walk-in clinic to make sure you're not about to lose part of your thumb...

Or does that cost money in the states as well?

Well, as it was late and I didn't want the ER visit/bill, I waited till morning to see what it was going to do.

Got a large blister over a red area. Looks pretty much like a second degree burn, so I think I'm good.

I'll watch for infection or if it turns black, then I'll hit up the professionals  ;)

Or less time consuming.

Waited four hours for a two minute checkup at a clinic today :’(

Had a lump in my chest that I was 95% sure was just a small cyst but wanted to get it checked because i’m not a doctor and couldn’t actually be sure. It was a small cyst.

At least I had something to read though. Though there’s also always the risk that I caught something from waiting in a room for 4 hours with a large amount of diseased people.

I once went into a walk in where it was just me and an older couple. After about 20 minutes they asked the receptionist where the physician was, and were told she had just stepped out for a moment.

At the 1 hour moment mark i told the receptionist i was just gonna leave. She tried to ask me to stay, but when i asked if she actually knew if the physician was coming back.. she admitted she had no idea.

So the quality of certain locations varies greatly lol.

This might be because you are yourself a medical professional?

It might have also been less crowded where you are. I went to a clinic at 6:48 AM, 3 minutes after it had opened, and when I was there there were already over twenty people in there. I was the 24th person to be seen, so I guess the actual wait time was just 10 minutes per person, though I still feel that's a bit excessive all things considered.

Our clinics are just not that busy... Though I do know what sort of times are less busy usually. Weekdays mid morning are normly good but I rarely see more than 3 or 4 people waiting at the one I go to

Well, that didn't work.

I have to admit, I'm now leaning more towards shelving this game, due to some extra work I picked up and having bad writers block.

The only free time I really have is weekends and all I do with them now is sleep to recover from the longer work week.

At times, this game has just rolled off my imagination, but right now I'm just stuck.

Blarg.

Hey all, I'm still around, but taking on a new position at work and been training for long hours. It will probably be a month or two before I get up to speed with my new job, which means I won't be too active on BHB till after then.
