I want luigi to examine the package and determines if it has any explosives inside, in other words, if it's a bomb or not. What should I roll?

Craft(chemical), Knowledge(Technology), Craft(mechanical), would all seem to be relevant.

EDIT: Also, you aren't currently holding the box, are you?

No, Luigi is still on his knees looking at the thing.

Can I spend a HP to get 4 skill points? Alternatively I know I can HP a jack of all trades feat, but I don't have my book to check if I can gain temporary skill points.

You can only do that if you have the Beginner's Luck feat.

He he, I think it's too small to be a bomb now, but worth digging in the matter I guess. Rolling a Sleigh of hand check to see if Luigi can hide the object.

If you allow it Industrious, this move is to buy time in order to use the checks I made above to determine the nature of the package.

I've had lobster macaroni before.

A comedy of errors, two sad emotional dramas, a love story, and something vaguely inspired by Nextwave.

aka

A breather arc.

By the way, DeafNotDumb, the open ending is supposed to be your opportunity to navel-gaze about Steph, and what to do with her, if you should so desire. If not, tell me, and I'll update your solo with everyone else. If you want us to work something out OOC, PM me.

EDIT: Going to open Bruce's lucky charm, Bruendor?

Most definitely. She promised him she'd wait until she left. I wasn't sure what was going to happen after our talk, so I was waiting on that. Assuming nothing pops up to immediately distract Kate, she'll open it once she gets in her car.

At this rate, I'm worried that the way the men's stories will be linked is going to be by having them all arrested for causing an affray and Walker coming in to interrogate them...

Gotham ladies get all the luck.

Nah. That would just be cruel and pointless.

This part of the arc is nearly over; one more post from everyone ought to seal this up, and we can get onto the Ball proper.

Letting everyone know it's finals week for me, so I probably won't post until later this week. That being said, once I do, we'll be starting the second half of this arc: getting everyone at the ball proper.

I'll get the first post of the second part of this arc done tomorrow.

In any case, this arc's formal title is called: Prelude to a Ball, and the titles to everyone's stories are on this last post.

I've also featured far too many cameos in this from various characters. If you can spot them all, I'm impressed.

Floyd's going to be disappointed if he never sees the mystery woman again.

EDIT: Also, I'm thinking about doing a fanart of Zinda at the bar, sprinklers on, fire in the kitchen, with her drink, the bar wench cowering behind her, and ninja bodies all over the place with various darts, shards of glass, and other projectiles sticking out of them.

Well, the oriental girl was a batgirl methinks. And that's much to say given my limited knowledge of all Batmanish.

Also, nice warp up!

Cassandra Cain, methinks.

Also, "warp up"?

And I suspect the olive-skinned woman was Helena Bertinelli. You would have liked her, Terron. Fiery Italian woman, very intelligent, good with a crossbow...

Fun fact: Colonel Kane isn't actually allowed to be in army dress uniform when attending a charity ball (unless it's a military charity). Or so the army regulations I was looking through said.

Time to get this Ball started!

Rules for the Ball:

Feel free to mingle with whoever you like. PC to PC discussion is highly encouraged. There will be some events that I have scripted out, and they'll be handled at appropriate times.

Nobody knows anybody's secret identity unless they've either figured it out previously or the two players are fine with each other knowing it. No having your character realize that X is actually Y hero without the other player's consent during the Ball.

You lot are at a formal occasion. Have your characters behave with appropriate decorum to the ball, unless it wouldn't be appropriate for them to given a specific situation.

Have fun with the idea.
