Are you looking for a Perception check? If so that's Wits + Composer right?

Wits + Composure, correct

Thank you.
13:51, Today: Fate rolled 3 successes using 6d10 with the World of Darkness nWoD system with a target of 8, rerolling 10s with rolls of 8,4,6,9,7,8.  Perception roll.

In reply to Fate (msg # 225):

Henry briefly looked over in the direction Fate indicated. “Mob of people and banging metal. A howl and no identifiers.”

Somewhat deflated by her embarrassing attempt at a last attack Fate says,"Great... Hopefully not more to deal with." Seeing that this was not her set of expertise she goes to a spot next to Nefertiti next to one of the beasts, thinks to herself here goes nothing, and throws a closed fist punch at the beast.

Fate will try punching one of the beasts that is attacking Nefertiti.
21:16, Today: Fate rolled 1 success using 6d10 with the World of Darkness nWoD system with a target of 8, rerolling 10s with rolls of 1,3,9,4,1,2.  Attack roll.

 Michael's blade managed to bite deep into the beast, finally pushing past the beast's mangy hide to do some real damage... but it took that moment to retaliate and Michael wasn't able to block in time as the beast clamped down on his other shoulder. Blood sprayed everywhere as the massive fangs pierced something vital, leaving Michael limp on the ground.

 With its one-on-one fight finished, the beast began to shuffle away from the fight, clutching at its wounds... in the direction of the coming crowd.

 Yuka came in to distract one of the wolves from Jay and the two fought back valiantly but the two seemed about to be overwhelmed.

 Fate punched one of the wolves to seemingly no effect... other than making it torn around and chomp down on her arm.

 Nefertiti did not seem to be faring any better. Her attempt to channel harmful energy into the beast did not seem to yield any visible effect... other than making it angrier. It bit down on her once more.

 The sounds of footfalls (from the direction you were chasing cultists) are getting closer.

Things were not looking good for anyone and with Michael fallen to the ground limp, Jay and Yuka still fighting and Fate was able to distract one of the beast off her.  But still the one was still biting and not stopping.  This alone was causing too much pain and soon she will be joining Michael on the ground limp unless she was able to do something.

OOC: Is the one that is still biting her the one that first fell under her power of Revelation?

OOC: Yes.

Nefertiti noticed that things were not looking good and she shouted out a command

"Retreat. saying as she moved over to Michael's body to pick it up and she flung it over her shoulder also picking up his sword for it was the only thing that cause some damage to the big bad wolf.

Looking at the others and hoping that they were able to run fast before the marching army of whatever got too close.


Increasing Strength to pick carry Michael, as her Celerity kicked in to grant her a quickening speed to retreat.

Fate's wounds start to heal almost automatically as she makes for a retreat as fast as she can.

OOC: Using Self Healing again.
16:40, Today: Fate rolled 5 successes using 5d10 with the World of Darkness nWoD system with a target of 8, rerolling 10s with rolls of 4,9,10(+10,5),4,10(+10,5).  Self Healing.

 Nefertiti snatched up Michael, burning quite a lot of energy in doing so, but managed to outpace the snarling murder beasts. Fate had a bit more trouble, having to dodge the creatures as they tried to pounce on her.

 Most of them broke off and Jay's and Yuka's howling could be heard from behind. Unfortunately, they just weren't able to carry more than they already were.

 However, one of the beasts persisted, hounding them as they crossed the street toward the truck that they'd hotwired. As they struggled to open the door, they heard the sound of gunfire... and not just any gunfire... rapid, high caliber gunfire.

 Around the corner, you could hear someone yell "HOT!"

 There was a stop in the gunfire for a few seconds as the beast staggered to its feet only for the gunfire to start again.

 This time it stayed down and men in military uniform rounded the corner and surrounded the beast... then they all started shouting in panic. Two of them opened fire on the beast. One of them tried to run but the last guy grabbed him and slapped him across the face, pointing at the beast... then THOSE two started shooting.

 … and they kept shooting till the bullets ran out.

 Only then did three of them flee. One of them looked up and waved for the two women to follow him. Unfortunately, that was all he had the presence of mind to do before running back to the Hum Vee. One of them got back into the gunner's seat and trained the big gun on the bullet riddled lump of fur and gore as if waiting for it to so much as twitch.

OOC: you guys have one round to act. Go with the trigger happy military or flee. They're retreating next round.

Nefertiti didn't know how much life Michael had in him so she wanted to keep him alive and as she did she allowed a bit more of her Divine to flow into him to heal him.

Placing her hand upon his shoulder she hoped it was enough to save him.

Looking to the others she didn't know what to do but it seemed that these trigger happy men did have something to help harm the beast.  Maybe they could help out in the future.

Nodding her head to Fate and knowing that these men might be able to help but Jay wasn't able to shift quickly and they would surely open fire on him.

Waving to the men to go without them she hoped Jay would catch up and meet at the van.

23:06, Today: Nefertiti rolled 1 success using 5d10 with the World of Darkness nWoD system with a target of 8, rerolling 10s with rolls of 9,6,2,4,3.  Pre + Emp Heal Michael.

 After a few seconds, color returned to Michael's flesh and the wound had mended somewhat. Not much, but at least he wasn't dead. It was a small comfort, considering that he very much felt like a used chew toy right about now. His left arm was all but useless for now.

Michael gasped as he came back to consciousness. He quickly looked around and was confused about where he was. He saw the werewolf on the ground in front of him. The priest struggled to his feet wincing in pain from his left arm. He staggered over to the werewolf and pulled a switchblade made of silver from his right boot and stabbed it in the base of the skull. He wiped the blood off the blade and staggered back over to the van where he sat down on the bumper. “What the hell happened and where is Jay?”

Nefertiti was pleased to see that she was able to give life back to the fallen hero named Michael.  It seemed that his God would allow such a thing to happen when such evil walks the earth.  She had other plans for this man and he would surely be a beacon of hope to those that wish to survive.

She was a bit concern when she watched him walk over to the dead beast and plunge his blade into its dead hide.  If that was what he needed to take out some anger then so be it.  But the question afterwards left her a bit speechless.

Looking to Fate then over in the direction of the battle.

"I do not know where Jay and Yuka is.  They were behind us a moment ago but he might of got the scent of the men who saved us and thought it best to stay away.  There was a group of them who open fired with some loud weapons as you can see they killed it. she paused "But the one you was fighting moved toward the marching sound. Surely members of his foul forsaken alliances.

Then she looked at the machine that brought them here. "We need to get out of here quickly before something worse arrives.  I am weak and my powers are low.  I need time to heal myself. that may be when those that look at the areas of her wounds are, it glowed with her own internal light.

Michael held his shoulder at looked at the body. “The loud machines are called guns. They fire a lot of small arrowheads very fast. It’s possible they killed it, but it takes silver to put them down for sure. I can heal your wounds as a thank you for healing mine. If Jay’s not going to accompany us, then I agree we should get going. Let’s go back to Haven for now. Jay will know where to find us.”

Henry looked over at Fate. “You good to drive? I’m pretty messed up, and Nefertiti might drive into a building.”

She held her hand up to refuse his healing

"I'm good.  I just need time to meditate and the ride back will give me plenty of that.

Then she entered into the metal carriage and sat in the back allowing herself to enter into a trance.

While she was sitting her wounds started to miraculously begin to heal

"Sure." Fate said as she quickly got into the drivers seat and started the vehicle. She was irritated, but she wouldn't let that distract her from driving. As soon as everyone was safely in she drove away from the beasts and the people taking direction from Michael on where to drive to get to Haven.

 It was a relatively easy drive back to Haven and the group quickly found themselves back in relative safety. The journey back was uneventful which was, perhaps, welcome to those who had narrowly escaped death.

 Many of the people were aghast at the extent of Michael's wounds and helped him inside, laying him down on a couch inside his apartment, trying to administer first aid the best that they can.

Michael did his best to smile through the pain and told them that one of the beasts had been slain before they left. Fate would be able to cross the threshold of the door if she went inside. Nefertiti on the other hand would feel a strong impending doom that prevented her from entering if she attempted to enter the Haven.

Nefertiti didn't get to see how the people was so grateful to aid Michael for his barrier was preventing her from taking a step into his Haven.  That was something she had to realize that it wasn't truly a place for her and she needed her own place where she could feel safe and the people there would know that it was her keeping them safe.

Knowing that it was her Divine power that saved the one they praise and none came to thank her or Fate.  But she watched to see if Fate was able to enter into the Haven without some difficulty.

"Fate if you have time tomorrow I would like to have a talk with you.

"Not a problem. Need to rethink our plan for going after Cook anyways." Fate spoke nonchalantly, but anyone could tell she was frustrated. She was used to going after human prey, werewolves were not her ideal target. She had been useless in their fight. She would need to fix that. Fate walked through the threshold then looked to Nefertiti when she didn't follow. "You're not coming?"

Nefertiti smiled to Fate "It may not allow a being of my status to pass the threshold. she said as she gazed at the outline of the Haven.  She never did try to walk in but still was it able to prevent her from entering or was that just a hoax.

She then looked back at the outskirts of where Jay has claimed and thought about going there for the time to rethink some things.

"I will be over in that building. she point out one.
