I have the intro for Act 1 set up. I don't think I will change anything unless I need to change the names. Once all the characters have been flushed out and are posted to the character forum, you may being posting in the IC Act 1 forum.

As you can see by the setup, you will need to approach the CI. How you do it is up to you. This is going to be fun.

I like it A LOT so far! Peppard is coming along. We had our live RPG tonight, I skyped in as GM to three guys. In the end, I gave them a locate missing ship mission. They're mostly Empire-neutral, just about making money. Except one guys always wants to "do the right thing". It was his struggle to leave the pilot and ship and simply report the location.

In the A-Team, Peppard was a Colonel. I don't think it applies here, though. I like the Leadership School part.

The team should role play how to approach the contact. And one of you will need to ask him questions.

But before that I need to finish vetting the characters, then you would copy the final character to the other forum. That will be the sheet you update as you progress.

Okay, this is not flashback, this is live RP'ing? Approaching our contact? And we are all together? We're RP'ing out the point of the bank heist? Or, is this a new heist in our post-criminal days on the run?

(Milktoast and Rider need to roll FP's?)

Flashback that starts a RP session. You are all altogether (4). You have not been betrayed...yet. This is where it all starts.

Approach the contact and find out what he knows. He is a CI but also a criminal.

What's a "Cl"? And should we wait for Rider?
This 'CL' is a known criminal? As in, we can just straight arrest him, if we choose?
Or, are we supposed to use him as a contact?

Is my PC ready to move over to the Character Database?

"CI" = Confidential Informant. Not everyone watches as much police drama on TV as I do.

My character being the pilot would wait in the vehicle during the contact in case it is a trap. I will attempt to get a full character up tomorrow as this is a busy week for me. Please do not feel you need to wait.

@Trip. In the interest of openness and honesty I wanted to confirm you are ok with me using My roller. I ask because, while I would not do so, I have full access over the code and database. That means I have the ability to edit/ delete/ or create any roll I wish with that roller. I do prefer it and as such use it in mine and Shado's games (Shado and I have played together enough that he trusts me), but could use Orokos if it would make you more comfortable.

Using your roller is fine. If you cheat I will have to give you conflict. JK I know if I cheated, this game would be no fun. I am sure you feel the same way.

As Shado said, CI is confidential informant. CIs tend to help you but it will be a "what's in it for me" situation.

Your character is ready. Just add the Force Rating of 1 to the list.

background

Post by DeepSpacer » Thu Aug 24, 2017 2:59 am

Just gathering background info. So, we never met him before. We're told he's an informant and given a description. I'll go ahead and post some IC action.

Rather, I will 'lead' and initiate contact (get things started), then allow time for my fellow players to react/act.

@swrider and @milktoast still needs to roll a Force Die. But that can come later.

Don't forget to check the map viewtopic.php?f=54&t=120 of the street. It may help you plan your actions.

Checked it. Not going for an arrest or wary of an ambush. Don't see a reason to sneak up. He's a C.I. so he's not openly hostile, given that background.

If you quote another post that has a spoiler, you can see the syntax.
But it is like this without the spaces between the brackets.

[ Spoiler ] Text goes here. [ / Spoiler ]

Your character is not ready yet. Check the reply I posted.

With regards your last IC post, the PCs have never met the CI hence the setbacks. Can you adjust your role play to match that fact?

The opposed check for the CI (I am using Infochant) is his presence. 3 Purples
