Re: Chapter 7.1: Devil With The Blue Dress ((IC))

Lucy grabs Robert's arm in a vice-like grip and bites down, hard. Blood gushes from the wound, and she begins lapping it up eagerly...

[[OOC: Lucy spends a chip to unshake, and tries to bite Robert again.

Vampires! rolled 15 using 1d6, rerolling max with rolls of (6+6+3)15. Bite! That's a hit and Raise.

Vampires! rolled 9,5 using d10,2d6, rerolling max with rolls of 9,4,1. Damage with Raise. Total of 14 damage. That's a Shaken and 2 wounds for Robert.

Vampires! drew the single card: 7D.]]

Re: Chapter 7.1: Devil With The Blue Dress ((IC))

Robert staggers back, the pain almost overwhelming.  Forgetting that this was a woman, forgetting even to take the blade from his cane, he swings his cane but the blood-crazed foe barely notices the hit.

In reply to Robert Micklethwait (msg #121):

The girl fends off the blows with ease. She seems to be moving much faster now that she's gotten a taste of Robert's blood.

[[OOC: Creatures with natural weapons (which include vampires) never count as unarmed defenders. Besides which, you still have a -2 penalty to attacks against her from her Seduction ability.]]

[Private to Robert Micklethwait: Oh, and since you've suffered a wound from her, make a vigor roll for me. }:D]

Re: Chapter 7.1: Devil With The Blue Dress ((IC))


She was going to run away when she heard Robert, looking back to see the demon of a woman bitting into his arm and making her blood run cold. Before she knew it, the posh dainty looking girl darted the short distance between them and without ever knowingly meaning to, gave a ferice hard plunge of the stake in her hand into the back of the ribs, aiming for the monster woman's heart with grunt of effort.



Katy Devon rolled 3,7 using d6,d4, rerolling max with rolls of 3,(4+3)7. with a -6.

Gives me a 1.

Katy Devon rolled 2 using 1d6, rerolling max with rolls of 2. red chip
Katy Devon rolled 2 using 1d6, rerolling max with rolls of 2. 2nd red chip to help robert!

Gained 4. Now. Got 5 to hit. Robert, the evil die roller really didn't want me to help you.

12:43, Today: Katy Devon rolled 2,1 using d6,d4, rerolling max with rolls of 2,1. +8 damage, call shot to heart.

Well.. An 11 damage. Okay then.. That was still a piddle-assed roll. Roolsso much better for Gatsu. -is jealous-

Lucy shrieks as the stake pierces her heart...and she bursts into flames! She burns to ash in Robert's embrace.

Re: Chapter 7.1: Devil With The Blue Dress ((IC))

Robert staggers backwards, brushing the flames from his clothing.  Gasping with pain and shock, and no little amount of embarrassment, he turns to Katy.  "My dear, I ran up here to save you, and you saved me.  That's twice now.  I should hire you as my legal secretary, I will never lose a case."

[Private to GM: what, one bite and I'm a vamp?  Holy cow, these suckers can spread fast.  I could see Robert being seduced (heh) by the lifestyle, he is an old dude.  And he could even justify it, saying he'd only prey on bad people etc, yeah, like that would last.  OTOH, he has seen how easy they are to slay.  But I'm sure Marina could convince him]

Re: Chapter 7.1: Devil With The Blue Dress ((IC))

Lucy's shriek made Katy scream and jump away, flailing slightly like a little girl. The woman vanished into ashes and she almost couldn't believe her eyes. Robert spoke and she watched him wide eyed..

" Are.. A-are we sick now too? Are w-we going to be mo-monsters?" She crept a bit close to Robert and like a child needing a teddy Bear, she hugged his uninjured arm and looked to the ash. " I could have been killed, how come no one told me? Did you know that was going to happen, Mister Robert?" Her voice getting a bit higher in pitch and shakey like she was going to cry.

Re: Chapter 7.1: Devil With The Blue Dress ((IC))

Robert hugs her and tries to avoid bleeding on her.  "There there, Miz Katy.  I don't think one bite will do it.  I'm sure it's more than that, or the west would be overrun with these things.  For that matter, I'm pretty sure that was just an extreme case of ghost-rock fever, that can burn you know, and make you do crazy things."

yeah, I'm sure we are fine. Robert thinks to himself  Aloud, he says, "Why don'e we see about bandaging these wounds up, no need to concern others." Robert looks around for some bandages.

[Private to GM: combination of agent in training, should suppress supernatural stuff.  And wishful thinking, "I'll be fine".  and probably a bit of "dont attract to much trouble for my good friend Marina]

Re: Chapter 7.1: Devil With The Blue Dress ((IC))

She sniffles a little at the hug, cudling up to him a bit as her eyes went about hte room a little. Scary things make people paranoid you know, and little Katy devons is on full alert.

" Perhaps we should find a doctor. A doctor would know about this 'fever', right?" She felt her neck as robert looked about the room. " Well.. It doesn't hurt, I think she only broken the skin a little before you pulled her off.  It's not bleeding anymore.." She moved over to the pitcher of water and poured some on a little rag she found to dab her neck a little.

" Oh! I know, My daddy would put alcohol on wounds whenever we got scratched. He said nothing cure you like like the hair of the dog. We should get some on your arm. Looks like she got you deep, Mister Robert.." Katy took his free arm gently and pointed to he door. " Also.. Lucy said something strange before you came up.. She said to .. Come join us in the darkness.  Us.. Do you think she met the manyou are chasing? And.. You think we should check the ladies down stairs for marks? What if they're protecting this? We should tell the Marsh about being bitten, if it turn you into monster at the drop of a hat, we have to warn them so they can be careful around us. I don't want to hurt anyone, Mister Roberts, I really can't take that."

Re: Chapter 7.1: Devil With The Blue Dress ((IC))

Robert shakes his head.  "Ghost rock fever isn't contagious, you get it from breathing ghost rock fumes, so I don't think we have to worry.  There was another, ah, flamable man, but I think she was the last of them.  I know some have mentioned, well, Vampires, myself included, but the more I think about it, I think it's just a delusion brought on by Ghost Rock fever.  It's the only thing that makes sense.  For one thing, that ranger says they burn up in the sun, and Lucy didn't"

At Katy's suggestion of a doctor, Robert shakes his head.  "I've met the so-called doctors in this town, I'd trust some alcohol and a bandage before either of them.  We can get some alcohol downstairs, I am sure.  As for the ladies, well, ahem, I don't think they could be hiding any bites, they way they were dressed.  However, I will pay attention to, just to make sure."

Picking up his cane, Robert opens the door and ushers Katy out, so they can go down and wash and bandage their wounds.

Re: Chapter 7.1: Devil With The Blue Dress ((IC))

" But Mister Evans said someone did that to her, that she might be contagious, that's what he said. " Katy mewled as Robert tried to fan down her little panic as one could tell her curiousity was making her talkitive and worrisome.


" Vampires? Like from the mystery stories?"
She covered her mouth slightly, her eyes getting bigger. " But there was no sun out, just the storm and it gotten worse and darken the sky and she was complaining abotu hte light. But then it was gone cause of the coulds in the sky. " She was starting to freak out a bit more by repeating herself. " Evans said to keep her in the light, but there was no more light, the rain got hard outside. He knew didn't he? Oh! I'm going to give him a whallop when I see him again. The nerve! I could have died and been on the ground cause there's no light. No sunlight whatso ever. That jerk!" And now katy moves from being scared to angry without a flip of the thought, folding her arm over her chest for a moment. Before leaving the room, she got her bag with her clothes and weapons and headed down with Robert.


" Mister Robert, don't be silly. I could check the ladies, you doing that is just..." She paused realizing that's what he meant. " Oh, you dog." She giggled, her mood shifting once  as she shook her head. " Men really do have one thing on their mind right next to their guns."

She watched Marina for a moment, and her brow furrowed in remembering the events. and she didn't know to lie or the truth. Robert seemed a bit against the truth for now, hell it scared the crap out of her, what would it do to a troope of women!

" She... Burst into dust... She's just.. Gone... Before that, she really hurt mister Robert. Please, could you help me get some things? I'm sorry to ask this of you, but.." The girl started, rubbing her arm a bit at the thought.

Re: Chapter 7.1: Devil With The Blue Dress ((IC))

Upstairs, Robert shrugges.  "I don't know for sure.  Maybe Evan's is right, maybe not.  All we know, is that they don't seem to mind getting shot, and burst into flames if you stab them.  That could be Ghost Rock fever, which is an established illnes.  Vampires, well, shoot, what's next, Ghosts and Goblins?"

When Marina comes in, he explains, "I was just discussing this with Miss Katy, I'm starting to think we were crazy to thing of vampires, I think it's just Ghost Rock fever.  When I came into town I met a man, half crazy he was, with a lump of Ghost Rock.  I think there's some in these parts, and it's effecting folk."

Marina nods. "Of course. It would be silly to think of vampires...I just didn't know Rock Fever did that to a person. What a horrible disease." She says, and sashays off to collect some bandages and whiskey for Robert's hand.

When she returns, she helps Robert downstairs, muttering and cooing over his wound all the way. She rather ignores Katy.

Robert goes with her (duh!), but makes sure Katy is bandaged up as well.  He also pays attention to any minor injures she or the other girls may have.
When they are bandaged, Robert suggests, "Miss Katy, I think we should fill in Marshall Evans on the latest happenings."

Re: Chapter 7.1: Devil With The Blue Dress ((IC))

Well, there's certainly a lot for Robert to view...

He doesn't notice and recent wounds on any of the ladies, but he does notice that most of the girls have tiny, discreet scars on their necks. The scars long healed over, and they're so tiny they're almost invisible, but now that he knows what he's looking for, they seem almost unavoidable to him. The only one of the girls that doesn't have scars on her neck is Carmilla, though, oddly, there are some similar scars on her breast.

Re: Chapter 7.1: Devil With The Blue Dress ((IC))

She sighed, at least Robert was getting attention to his hand. She was so worried and blood makes her all kinds of edgey in having to deal with it. She waited with her bag as his hand got fixed up. She looked to the women with a fidget. As soon after Robert suggested they go along and look for Evans and she nodded.

Katy Devons rolled a notice check of 11 to look for markings.

" And then I want to get some tea. My nerves are starting to shake." She mewled childishly and got a head start of leaving. " Come on, mister Robert. Please hurry.."
