Re: MERC XVI: Morality is Relative; Professional Standards Aren't!
[To Catch a Burglar]
In the main room of the main base, Dipsnig has spread three maps: of Riverside, Skyside and Inside (that is, Inside's current approximate shape and status). On the nearest wall, there's a clipboard with three items on it:
- AMEN
- Cybil
- Lavthos

Fade seems to be to slow to do something about Krait, befor he got draged into the Robot. Still he saw it. While the invaders prepare their leave, Fade just slides back into the tunnels he came out befor. In the main room he leaves his shadow, bruiseom his arm and face from the rubber bulllets.
He will search the Main room for Dipsnig or call him if he isn't there. he might have something Dipsnig may want to know.Grammer is my declared deadly enemy!

"Ah, Ms. Tyamera," Dipsnig says, looking up from his map of Skyside. "I'm glad to see you. We have been given a lucrative bounty by the government of Northside, and now also Westside as it turns out. It appears we might need your skills to get a place to start."My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

"You mean Malechenar?" Astrana asks, raising her eyebrows. Here she had gone all this way to not end up with those people and now she was still going to work indirectly with them. "What do you need help with exactly? I know for a fact they have an entire cabal of warlocks working for them."

[To Catch a Burglar]
"They want us to catch a thief, known as Cat Burglar." Dipsnig points to the wanted poster. "I don't know what exactly he did to them, and we're not in the business of asking this kind of question. Now, according to them, he's got some associates." He points to the list on the wall. "AMEN, whom I would rather not deal with if I don't have to. But there is this Cybil and Lavthos. Both vampires, apparently, and criminals on their homeworld."Last edited by Morty; 2014-10-20 at 03:21 PM.

Re: MERC XVI: Morality is Relative; Professional Standards Aren't!

A lot of people were 'criminals' according to Malechenar, but Astrana wasn't going to come with a comment like that here. "If they're asking us to do it, they're likely busy with something else." She observes however. Most likely with their takeover of the city. She was so glad she had left for Inside before that happened. "I could attempt to scry for them, but I'm either expecting them to go under false names or have some sort of protection in place. There are ways to bypass that though. Like sending a outsider to find the named person."

"Whatever works," Dipsnig says. "We don't need to pinpoint his location. All we need, at this stage, is a place to start. A place he's been a person he spoke to who can direct us, something he owned, maybe. Once we have that, further tracking will become progressively easier."

The phone is answered by one of the clerks in the Inside office.

"I can simply try to scry him through his name first and see what that turns up." The tiefling suggests. "But was there anything else or should I start preparing?" The new ritual chamber was really spiffy. She looked forward to finally use it.

"As you wish sir. I'll get back to you once I have something." Astrana replies and will get up from her seat and leave unless Dipsnig have anything else to say.
[MERC Summoning Chamber]
The witch doctor (Astrana!) will here conduct a ritual involving the burning of a note of the Catburglar's name together with the picture of him taken by Malechenar. If it's enough to actually scry on the burglar is up to his player however.

There's a rustling of paper on the other side of the phone.
"Ah, yes. Boos Razortooth is currently... preoccupied with what I believe is the aftermath of an attack on the main base of the Corporation, but he left some notes. He's investigating rumours of a group called the Vulpine Empire which seems to be gaining a foothold.

When Dipsnig climbs down from his power suit and surveys the damage, he's deadly calm. Only those who know him well or are experts on reading people, or both, will detect the edge in his voice.

Re: MERC XVI: Morality is Relative; Professional Standards Aren't!
[MERC Inside Office]
The door to the Inside office of MERC swings lazily open and in stumbles a very haggard looking Marcus Runeheart. It's clear he hasn't shaved or slept in quite a while. He'll steer himself into the lobby and drop unceremoniously into one of the lounge chairs. Pulling up an end table, the Wizard takes his bag and grabs about four different books out that he opens on said table in front of him. A weary gaze is cast across the myriad of text as the young Runeheart's shoulder's slack and he holds the sides of his head in concentration.
"Ughh...." he groans quietly to himself.
The tomes and ledgers spread across the table are all in complex, old languages. A few diagrams can be seen as Mark sporadically flips pages in a seemingly random fashion. One particular book closest to him has an array that simply comes to life and crawls off the page. This is registered but otherwise completely ignored by the Signomancer. Must happen often. All that might be heard is his near constant, vague muttering.
"Was it...no, no. But he disproved...fractional spaceoh nevermind. How did...? Ah, the fourth anomalous law says...ok. But then..." He'll trail off into a disgruntled sigh.
Any who enter therein would be hard pressed not to notice the young man. Marcus was quite the mess.FFRP Characters for Reference:

"I'm sure we will here of them very soon." Fade's voice comes from a close shadow as he steps out of lit like walking up stairs hidden in the shadow. He isn't badly hurt, but a few bruise can be seen on his right arm and head caused by the rubber ammunation from the atatckers.Grammer is my declared deadly enemy!

So he was in AMEN then as mister Razortooth had suspected. Not particularly exciting information, but at least he wasn't anywhere else. But if the scrying had worked, similar things would as well. She quickly prepared a ritual for Arcusoth, the many-eyed watched and call upon one of it's eyes. Then she called mister Razortooth. "It's Astrana, would you mind coming down here? I will require a second person for this."

"I know he's in AMEN, but I think we require more information than just that so I've prepared a ritual to summon an eye of Arcusoth to keep an watch on him. It will require me to give up my own sight for that time however, leaving me helpless. So I'd be glad if I have someone keep me company while I'm blind." The tiefling explains.

"Thank you, I won't disappoint." Astrana says with a nod before turning to the summoning circle. She starts whispering strange, crude words as she goes down on her knees puts her head against the cave floor in a prayer-like fashion.
Eventually an entity shaped like an burning eye which replies to her in the same strange language before suddenly disappearing as fast as it appeared.
The Cat Burglar will not be spied on by the eye. Watching his every move. It's not physically nearby, rather it's like it's watching him from afar, being able to see through walls.
