"Nothing fancy like what you got, just the normal stuff bulky and heavy .... anything fancy isn't going to be too cheep."

The cheep armor he shows comes in a few catagories, it's acutaly slightly better quallity gear he's got being military hardware (slighly less dex reduction)


Reinforced clothing   armor ratting 1  3kc
Armor T-Shirt/Light Body Armor   armor ratting 2   dex reduction -1  6kc
Ballistic/Kevlar Vest   armor ratting 3   dex reduction -1  12kc
Dragon Skin/Flak Jacket  armor ratting 4  dex reduction -2   20kc
Full Riot Gear/bomb squad armor ratting 5  dex reduction -3   30kc

The Dragon Skin will do.

The thought guided Ix's hand to lift and point at the armor. He didn't want the convict to die too easily, nor did he want his charge to be an unstoppable tank.

So recount of all the purchases Ix has made:
Crate of emp grenades
5 frag
5 smoke
5 flash
Forearm(?) Mounted grappling hook
Unspecified amount of dram
Puncture proof space suit w/air, water, food storage
Life line
Plasma pistol
Tranquilizer darts (15 clips)
Dragon skin armor (+20kc)
2 sweet ass guns (for Raven via requisition)

thought it was wrist mounted hook..... I'll add it once you meet up with solan and turn in for the night and I give out exp.

I would prefer wrist, but didn't know if such a thing were possible. Hence, why I always typed as wrist/forearm. Word.

With the message sent to the convict, Ix contacted Senex as well to inform them of his outfitting of his charge.

They respond letting you know he paied off his debts all at once, apparently in a short time in Hades he acquired 2.5 million credits... there looking into it needless to say. That is a lot for a merc to make in a few hours of slipping away from handlers.

(equivalent of 25,000$ in like 3~5 hours.... means big job or big guy putting the price up)

Ix's eye twitched at the freshly acquired information. Yet he says he has no credits. He chewed over what to do as he paid Joe with the credit chip he'd prepared. Being that Solan was still newly assigned to his supervision, he decided that the best course of action was to keep the info to himself. It was good leverage to have for the future. Perhaps it is just a misunderstanding...

Probably not...

I have found us passage to the trial, it will cost but he will provide some equipment. If everyone could meet me at <Temple coordinates> then we can make our way as a group to book the travel and finally decide who is coming and who isn't.

dram isn't covered in the cost, but you got a fair amount of money and it's only 12k a pice he's charging for them and that's a fair price so you can grab some.... you don't need much for spare ammo

had him throw in some estra ammo for you guys...

and more tranquilizer ammo than you asked for

Raven was awaiting his friend outside a diner that offered all you could eat steak and eggs. Just what the steak and eggs were from wasn't mentioned but the old bird was hungry and he figured he'd eaten worse especially when he was well shit faced.

All you can eat?  Likely bugs... and defiantly not eggs over easy.... lol

"Are you trying to kill me?"

Ix had no refined tastes in the culinary arts. Food was food, fueled the body for another day's delay on the Wheel. But this place possessed an aura that almost guaranteed your food was sliced from something that had at least six legs. "I wonder what your monk thinks of your dietary and pharmaceutical consumption."

Ix's bias against monks rubbed at him especially keenly. Today was the day they saw the group to handle their missions'objectives. While his previous night's journey weighed heavily on his thoughts, he was already prepping his mind for the day's briefing.

He wore his usual attire, flipping the tomahawk around in one hand as he approached.

"Sleep well?"

Assuming by now that "words like this" are understood to be sign.

Raven was grinning, a lit cig hanging out one side of his beak when Ix walked up. The old man seemed to be in a good mood.

"Nope just trying to get some hair on your chest my friend. I'm not sure the good brother has been around me long enough to form an opinion of such things, but as long as he doesn't have me sleeping on the floor and eating rice with chop sticks, I'm sure we'll get along just fine. As for my sleep i got stoned and had a very pleasant dream. I saw your boy standing in the middle of some bale fire and laughing crazy as sores erupted on his body. Yeah, I know what bale fire is, but as I'm standing here the guy who had it missed. So shall we eat?'

"My boy. That's a good one."

Ix frowned as Raven signed his reply. The mention of the vet's strange, stoned dream wasn't too surprising except for the fact that it involved his charge. Bale fire was extremely volatile, but Ix was no interpreter of dreams. Not even his own.

With a final flourish he twirled the weapon behind his back, sending it sailing over his opposite shoulder, then catching it to sheath it in its leather loop.

"Let's eat."

Ix dipped through the diner doors and took up a seat in a booth, expecting Raven to follow behind. "By the way...would you know of any side jobs the convict is running? He seemed to have all mysterious boost in funds."
This message was last edited by the player at 19:22, Wed 06 Nov 2013.

Raven did indeed follow his friend into the eatery, and slipped in on the opposite side of the booth. He flagged down a waitress and ordered two all you could eat specials and the strongest stuff they had for him to drink; he would let his friend make his own drink order. After the assassin had in his preference for a refreshment, and the server had left them in peace the old bird responded to his friend in kind.

"Side jobs? No nothing he's told me about but we haven't spent much time together and I only know he's a merc. who jumps the gun easily from what i've seen. Given he's twice now tried to get me in a duel to the death with him, I don't see us curling each other's hair and sharing secrets way into the night."

Ix had already typed out a credit chip by the time Raven had finished placing his order. He subtly slipped the chip into their server's hands, and he had Raven translate, "I would like your bottled water." He was sure with the amount he gave them, they at least would send someone out to get it if they didn't keep any around. But perhaps they had some in the storeroom...

"Oh you couldn't see that? Not even after all your bad trips?"

He leaned to the side against the wall crossing his arms. "Where do we meet the others of your.. jigsaw posse?"

Raven translated as he was bid to do then turned his attention back to his friend.

"Bad trips? There are no bad trips, just ones the weak willed can't face. For me it's all just a thrill ride, brother. Besides, me and Solan in a sleep over giggling about dumb shit fits more in a nightmare for me. If that were the only other option, i would have taken him up on his plentiful offers to fight to the death. as for the meet and greet, FW sent me some numbers to his location. Once we eat our fill, we can pick up our goodies at the shop that were to be ready today like my rail gun, and i'll take you to meet the team. Such as it is..."

Ix nodded as Raven finished wrapping up the pre-brief plans. It didn't take long for the server to return with drinks and another following with hot buggy plates. "Looked like a proper soldier's weapon. But is it firepower that's needed against this thing? This...god?"

Raven accepted his first plate of food, and though he was provided with a knife and fork, the old school fighter favored slicing the meat and spearing it with his talons to feed himself. While he was busy with that he signed with his other two free hands.

"Us up against a God? We'd be paste in ten minutes, and that's if it took nine and a half to get there, ten seconds to load weapons, and fifteen to say our goodbyes. From the way I understand it, we're not fighting a God just meeting one. But to do that we got to survive to get to the meet and greet, it's not like we can just walk up, ring the bell, and shale hands. FW said to get a weapon that he's supposed to meet this being, nothing about killing. He also said to bring along a weapon that can harm spirits, so I'm guessing that's some challenge or trial, or whatever we have to face. Besides, if we kill the God or Spirit of the planet, wouldn't that waste the whole planet too? And wouldn't we be standing on it at the time?"

Ix shrugged as he took the time to slice his food into bite-sized pieces. "All things must come to an end, sometime. Or else nothing can be made new..."

"And hopefully, we can work this out to where I won't have to attend this divine dinner party. I prefer my dealings to remain in the mortal realm." He bit into a forkful of food thinking it tasted better than it looked.

"To each his own. Me, an old soldier, I can't pass up a chance to meet the main Man Himself. Besides should be a helluva trip, and you know me. When I'm done looking for the next thrill in life I'll find some corner somewhere, curl up and die. Too bad you don't want to come, i could use someone I trust at my back. Also if tin britches goes, it might be a good chance to see him in action and know what you have to work with. Up to you though. Let's stuff ourselves then we'll swing by the shop to pick up our gear and i'll take you to meet the others. Good for you?" 

The old bird wiped his talons clean on a napkin, and signaled for his next serving.
