This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Form the group wisely, make sure you share goals and means.
Set norms of table etiquette early on.
Encourage attentive participation and speed of play so the game will stay vibrant!
Allow that the group, milieu and system will from an organic symbiosis.
Most importantly, have fun exploring the possibilities!

Nikolai speaks,
So Comrades, do we go up or down? The blood leads to the basement. But didnt this shop keep have family? Where are they? Do you think that they are hiding upstairs? They maybe frightened out of their wits. Imagine listening to the carnage in the store.

Real life has gotten interesting for me as well.  Sorry for not moving this along.

Nikolai's comment makes Solange break off from staring at the bloody footprints.  She hadn't realized she'd gotten fixated like that.

"Of course.  We should search for survivors.  We can always hope..."  She takes a drag from her cigarette and exhales slowly.  "Perhaps I should go first.  Especially if there are children."  She had her doubts about her ability to calm them, but she had done it enough during the war and just after.  It was not a matter of what to say; sometimes the orphans just needed someone to hold them.  

From what she had heard, though, it was highly possible that even the children were casualties.  If that was the case, the RPA had better not expect her to bring in any suspects alive.

No problem Wyld...life can do that!

"Good idea.All right then,lets secure the top floor before going downstairs. Solange goes first, we cover. If anything comes at you try to drop low or get to a side quickly." as I pan my light towards the stairs."If there are any kids up there we need to get them out ASAP and as quiet as possible. Be ready for movement so check your targets before firing." The last part as I look directly at Nikolai.

I start to move into a position to cover the stairs...checking my corners as I advance...

Da Commrade you do the same. says Nikolai as he takes his posistion in the advancing order. The stairs creek as your lot climbs them. Bring you to a windowless wooden door.

Addison has his .45 half raised w/finger resting on trigger guard,focusing on keeping his breathing smooth and shoulders etc. relaxed.

Solange carefully approaches the door, creeping on tiptoe.  She pauses for a moment just before it, checking if any sounds or tell-tale odors come through.  She glances back at Addison and Nikolai who have taken their positions below.

Giving a quick nod, she leans against the door to listen for a moment, one hand on the doorknob and the other with her PPK at ready.

Ronin, shall I should make a roll at this point?  ;)

Ronin

Make a Subterfuge roll to see if you can hear anything on the other side of the door. Average difficulty (10)

Listening at the door you here the sound of boots dragging across the wooden floor. Seemingly pacing, in a slow clumsy fashion.

Solange takes a quiet step back from the door and whispers to her comrades, "Someone is inside.  Bootsteps, pacing, and stumbling it seems.  It could be a person who is wounded, or perhaps...changed."  

Like all agents of the RPA, she has heard of the macabre experiments of the Nazis and the...creatures some of them yielded.  She checks her pistol again to make sure that a round is chambered.

Ronin,
Is there a landing atop the stairwell ?
How much room do we have ?
Does the door open towards us or inwards?


Addison glances to his comrades and checks the safety on his .45 making sure it is off,nodding his head as Solange's comment registers...

There is a small landing. 5ft wide and 4ft deep. The door opens inward.

Ronin, can we tell if the other room is dark or lit...is there any light visible coming from between the bottom of the door and the floor?
