Previous thread:

For now: You are part of Transpace Guard Requisitions. The "Looting" part of Transpace Guard Requisitions. You have been sent on a mission to the mansion of an overweight neckbeard, who has found a way to drag attractive women THROUGH the meta to reach him, and charm them into his service.

You've recently suffered a SNAFU and have had to pull out temporarily while your alert level goes down. Here are your current objectives:

MAIN GOAL:
#1. Find out what's allowing those characters to come in from other worlds, and swipe it.

SIDE GOALS:
#1: These women aren't likely to stay with a fat slob of their own free will. Find out how they're being controlled.
#2: Despite having a harem, there must be a place where the Mansion owner goes to be alone. Find such a place, and our assassins' team will have a much easier job.
#3: There's bound to be lots of loot in this place. Collect all the interesting loot you can. Note that we have no use for jewellery, but particularily unique items, magic items, tech, and powerups are all good.

SHIT TO AVOID:
#1: Don't kill any of the girls. You do this, you're fired.
#2: Injuries to the girls' health and sanity may cause problems in returning them to their canons. Try not to do this.
#3: Troops and Heroes are expensive to replace. Lose as few as you can.

You have taken the following with you on mission:
1 Nightcrawler from X-men
1 Auror from Harry Potter
1 Heartbeat sensor, Call of Duty
1 Omni-tool, Mass Effect
5 Flash bombs
1 Mirror-on-a-stick
1 Basic Lockpick

Important things you have found out:

>Women come and go from this place, so there is a two-way transportation thing here
>There is a spell shield on the mansion that inhibits spellcasting inside it, and specifically blocks teleportation out.
>Women here have been charmed, and willingly assist the neckbeard
>Chocolate is involved somehow

The women you have seen thus far are:
Renamon
Princess Peach
Chun-Li
Sailor Mercury
Amalia
A Tiefling warlock
You also know that someone owns a Geodude.

So, while you lick your wounds (literal, in the case of Nightcrawler), you hope to hatch a plan with slightly more common sense.

rolled 60 = 60

Rolling Wisdom, since you're outside the mansion again, perhaps to pick up on what's missing.

>>17678682
You pick up on something strange.

The telegraph pole outside this mansion doesn't have any cables or wires leading to it, and yet, this mansion still has lights.

>>17678682
How does the Auror's magic work outside? I figure it should work at full power, but we should check to be sure.

OK, suggest the Auror casts supersensory charm on himself and crawler. Also invisibilty and silencing spells, before we head in.

Also, investigate the mysterious hedgemaze and those artificial trees before re-entering the mansion proper.

I also point you back to this post here.
>>17678602

Also: someone archive dat last thread, for anyone who missed it.

In any case, it's now up to the players to find a plan to accomplish their objectives with the tools they've been given. Hopefully one that won't fail disastrously.

Oh, I forgot: You also have:
1 Bag of holding, which contains:
>1 Stack of Mario Mushrooms

>How does the Auror's magic work outside? I figure it should work at full power, but we should check to be sure
The Auror reports that he's a bit frazzled by his experience, but nonetheless, his spells work at full power.

>>17678719
which colors are the shrooms?

did we bring back some of the chocolate with us? Have the Auror do some tests, see if it's magic.

To be blunt, we arn't going back in as unprepaired as we did last time. We need to try and play this smart. We failed to grab the neck beards name last time, which is bad, because it foils a perfectly good Taboo spell.

Perhaps that isn't all for not though. If we cast Taboo on another person's name that we saw in the mansion we will at least have some vision into the activities of the household. In addition it would give us temporary ability to enter and exit, because Taboo temporarily dispels enchantments within an area. We'd have to be DAMN fast about it though.

rolled 56 = 56

>>17678724
They are the standard "Make mario big" shrooms.
You intend to sell them for DOSH.
>>17678725
The Auror looks at the chocolates, and confirms that there is magic in them.
Can he work out exactly what kind of magic?

>>17678743
The Auror takes a bite of the chocolate and suddenly finds Nightcrawler to be the most attractive and beautiful person in existence, wanting to be with him forever.

Because this isn't Homoquest, the Auror instantly dispels it, and shudders in revolt.

>Side goal #1: These women aren't likely to stay with a fat slob of their own free will. Find out how they're being controlled.
SIDE GOAL #1 COMPLETE.

>>17678746
Damnit. I was going to say use

Specialis Revelio (Scarpin's Revelaspell)Edit
Pronunciation: speh-see-AH-LIS reh-VEL-ee-oh
Description: Apparently causes an object to show its hidden secrets or magical properties.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Hermione Granger to find out more of Harry's Advanced Potion-Making book in 1996. Used by Ernie Macmillan to find out ingredients of a potion. Its precise effects are unknown, as there are no recorded occasions of the spell being successful.

>>17678731
I'm just trolling with ya. The neckbeard's name is James White. Do you wish to put Taboo on this?

>>17678746
can he dispel it on the women? (assuming it's after we take out this shield)

maybe grab one of the women, fix her, and then have an inside woman? f course, if he has some way of detecting if they're aren't under its effects any more...

Hell, if we can, knock out the shield and dispel the magic. Maybe the angry women will take care of the Grognard for us!

>>17678780
Actually, using the Taboo means if anyone says his name, the enchantments in the area are dispelled. If they say his name, they're free.

>>17678780
As far as I know, Aurors have no "dispel love magic" spell. If they do, tell me it's name, and I shall google it.

Taboo on James White sounds like a solid idea to me. It'd give us a chance to port in on a location, nab whoever said what, and sort it out later. Are their any more potent scrying spells in the potter-verse? i know of a few DnD ones that would be helpful, but don't know if our caster has access to them.

Also with Legilimency (memory accessing and manipulation) we could attempt to gain more information from any targets we could apprehend through these means.

>>17678796
Scratch that. This.

rolled 95 = 95

>>17678796
Only Minor enchantments. It's also Dark magic and the Auror may not like the idea of using it. Let's roll 1d100 and see if he's willing to do so.
Aurors can scry. Do you want this one to try and Scry something? If so, what?

The Auror is willing to use the Taboo curse. Now, all over the world, people are afraid to use the name "James White".
... Are you sure that was a good idea?

>Reality distortions increased globally

>>17678798
Finite/Finite Incantatem dispels magical effects in general, so that might work.

>>17678831
The description of Taboo doesn't say it makes people afraid to say the word. It only says the word or name allows the entity that casts it to know who said the word, it also dispels enchantments.

I understand this is OP's call, I'm just curious as to how this works.

>>17678831
DOHOHOHO.

GOD FUCKING DAMMIT GUYS
couldn't you wait like 10 minutes? Dismiss the taboo and do this:
>>17678846

>>17678857
>http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Taboo
>This curse controls individuals by limiting their freedom to speak, and thus causes great stress, terror, and frustration. Because of this, it may be considered to be Dark magic.
>and disables some weaker protective magical enchantments.
>Not all enchantments

And best of all? The women of the house refer to him as "Master", not "James".

>>17678831
We'll remove it later. Do the enchanted chocolates count as minor?

Does our Auror know the shield shattering spell used in Deathly Hallows? It may be useful if we need to leave again.

>Does our Auror know the shield shattering spell used in Deathly Hallows? It may be useful if we need to leave again
He used it and it knocked him unconscious.

>Do the enchanted chocolates count as minor?
The Auror believes that the strength of the enchantment is dependent entirely on the amount of chocolate one eats.
One bite? Dispelled easily.
A slice of cake, once? Hard to dispel, but doable.
If a person has been eating cake every day for a week? Not by one Auror alone.

>>17678878
for fuck's sake, tell the guy to undo it.

Honestly, guys. I leave the thread for 10 minutes! I took 2 mins to find a spell that counteracted extant magical effects.
http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Finite
jesus.

Auror, undo it. Now. I'm disappointed YOU didn't fucking speak up with a counterspell you should have learned at wizard school!

>>17678878
>.> Fantastic. The spell list didn't mention that, was only listed on the specific spell page. However, does it actually limit ones ability to speak (aka. render them unable) or simply result in negative consequences when spoken (being scryed upon, enchantments dispelling). Since people can actually say the word I'd think it would be the result of the latter.

>>17678879
It used it last time to escape.

>>17678879
>We'll remove it later.
Remind me again, how you remove a Taboo curse once it's placed?

Anyway. You have your loadout and are currently derping about on your craft, waiting for the situation to simmer down a bit, or waiting for orders from the players.

>>17678910
>for fuck's sake, tell the guy to undo it.
>Auror, undo it. Now. I'm disappointed YOU didn't fucking speak up with a counterspell you should have learned at wizard school.
I have been giving common sense checks all last thread.
Tell you what. I'll undo this ONE thing. But then?
No more common sense checks.
-

It turns out the Auror deliberately flubbed his spellcast because he knew it would be a bad idea.
>Reality distortions have not increased globally at all

>>17678913
Finite Incantatem

It ends spells.
Lets just use the senses enhancer. Invisible and silence both our guys. Then slowly move towards the magic shield device and loot the fuck out of it.

ABORT MISSION, we are clearly not going to go anywhere more at this pace.

How did all these retards suddenly show up? It must be the same people fucking up TGQuest main.

>>Why is it.

>>That we plan for no end in planning threads...

>>Then people come into the actual thread and start rattling off their mouths without any regard to what we've planned?

>You notice that planes are a very common sight in residential neighbourhoods, and spotting one flying past is unlikely to cause alarm.
>Did you know that Aurors can cast Spells? Try it. It might help you in your mission!
>Open doors allow people to see into the room and see you
>When in Princess Peach's bedroom and starting a fight, you may wake Princess Peach
>Flashbangs go bang

>>17678911
This is kind of your fault, if you didn't bother to read the full repercussions.

If you'd done a bit more reading, you'd have found this: http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Finite

A relatively simple counterspell, that doesn't have dark magic.

Although the Auror should have mentioned it himself, seeing as it's a fairly common counterspell.

>>17678913
Well it's clearly fucking possible, especially as we have the guy who cast in the the fucking room.

Also: not to criticise, but you're kind of coming off as somewhat mean-spirited with 'this is why you fail!' especially here.
>>17678878
Just saying. You don't need to kick us while we're down, man.

Well, you have two choices.
You can either abort the mission rated at "Extremely easy", or
You can make another plan to accomplish your goal.

Seems like the current idea is to break into the mansion, go straight for the Magic shield generator, and kill it.

>>17678993
I know. I'm sorry. I just get frustrated sometimes.

The problem here is that the player characters have no goddamn common sense.

>>17678993
Meh. Was unaware the spell had a specific article, didn't occur to me that was the case until after it was pointed out by OP. Shiat happens.

>>17679008
Okay. So, plan. Do we:
A. Investigate the garden first?
B. Go straight for the magic shield generator?
C. Attempt to dispel enchantments on one of the ladies, to have her act as a scout?
D. Something else?

>>17678993

Like when he used it on himself after eating the chocolate?

Also, the listing under http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_spells#T and the listing under http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Taboo say different things. One says it'd be a good plan. Other says it's a fucking horrible idea. Guess which one is on the main page.

>>17679027
Yo. Quit gettin' mad at traditional games and tell Nightcrawler where to teleport to.

>>17679031
Have the Auror scry for the device. Teleport in there after the location is found and the protective charms mentioned earlier are cast.

>>17679027
um, you could have studied the spell in detail? it was just clicking the link. it wouldn't take that long.

>>17678939
>>17679004
>>17679031
Look, I'm sorry it's just that I've been following this quest all night (7Am now), and I'm kind of cranky too.

rolled 24 = 24

>>17679050
The Auror scries for the device...

Wish we had even a little more information here. It was supposed to be located toward the center. We could move in on that location from above. Unfortunately that'll probably set off several people's suspicions, especially with everything on high alert. Oddly the hedge-maze seems like the safest place to be at the moment.

>>17679059
... And confirms its location, but interference is preventing him from seeing its exact area.
Nightcrawler is uncomfortable teleporting to areas he cannot see, as it runs the risk of him teleporting into a wall.

>>17679060
The Hedge maze is quiet at the moment. The Felhound led the pursuers in a different direction.

This gives us two options! Maze, or Middle?

>>17679056
Have you seen the pace things move at here? Also as I stated earlier I didn't realize their was a link for that particular spell on the list. some lack links due to specific details not being known.

rolled 1 = 1

>>17679073
Canon isn't always stable. Sometimes spells just don't work the way you'd expect.

If nobody's seconding either Maze or going for the middle, I'm going to coinflip it.

>>17679072
Can he scry nearby areas to attempt to find an area with less interferance?

rolled 76, 84, 83 = 243

>>17679103
Your craft moves to overlook the maze.
There's nothing new to spot here.
Just a few unnatural-looking trees, in amongst the normal ones.

>>17679106
Indeed he can! Let us see what happens.

>>17679073
sorry, like I said I've been up all night.

I'm putting my vote in for maze at the moment, simply because it doesn't have the same shield disruptive magic the mansion does.

have the Auror carry out >>17678710 before we go in, for preparation.

Also, if can figure out people who are new, and might be saved by finite.

>>17679112
Scrying the areas nearby, he finds:
The Kitchen is the closest area, being inside the house. A few details are fuzzy, but he can clearly identify the kitchen.
Also nearby, is a sort of a recharge station, with lots of technical equipment. Strangely enough, there is a bed with the technical equipment, and it seems recently used.
Finally, looking UNDER the magic shield reveals that there is a basement level to the mansion, and that the basement level has cameras in it.

So, where do we 'port to? Nightcrawler says it would be "risky, but doable" to go to the mechanical recharge station.

>>17679124
Mechanical recharge station.

>>17679122
The maze has some unnatural-looking trees. What do you wish to do:
A. Get a closer look before going in
B. Teleport to the strongest concentration
C. Teleport to the one that is the most isolated to see what it is
D. Teleport to any random location?

>>17679132
Too late son, Garden first!

>>17679132
'Port there.

Alternatively, I guess the auror can 'port us there.

Eh, might as well. Go near a tree via teleport, but not close enough to be grabbed. Cast the "identify magic" spell on it.

>>17679149
A Cluster of trees, or an isolated tree?

probably best we go to the garden first anyway. we're here to loot after all.

suggest porting to the most isolated tree.

>>17679160
Isolated. I'd prefer to find out what they are before we get surrounded by them.

Everything that has transpired tonight?
The real reason we can't requisition shit in the main quest any more.
Mildly poor decisions, but mostly hilariously bad luck; Requisitions has its own problems to deal with!

rolled 86 = 86

>>17679166
Porting complications y/n?

rolled 35 = 35

n.
The Auror and Nightcrawler port down. Silent, Invisible, Extra-sensing.
They identify the tree itself as being a magically enchanted version of a normal tree, set for growth. This is unusual, but it isn't NEW to requisitions. But there may be something around here that is interesting ... let's see what turns up on a spot check.

>>17679192
Take 20 on the spot check?

>>17679192
Hmm, not looking good for that spot check, but the no complications thing is much nicer.

rolled 71 = 71

>>17679192
roll for spot check

rolled 61 = 61

>>17679192
You spot a 4-leaf clover. Yay! It makes you feel happy. Doesn't count as a mission goal though.

>>17679200
You may reroll the spot check and see if you find anything new.

>>17679214
Now THAT'S strange.
There's a flower here that's far too rigid and rubbery, and its petals sure don't look like any petals you know.

Interact with the plant y/n? And if so, who interacts with it?

>>17679218
Identification spell first. Then Auror

What spells can the auror use to test on the plant?

>>17679218
Auror: "It's Magic. No idea what kind of magic."

>>17679238
Specialis Revelio - causes an object to show its hidden secrets or magical properties

If that doesn't work, it has to be a type of magic incompatible with the HP universe's style.

>>17679253
Let's try this spell.

>>17679231
Specialis revalio ,or Scarpin's Revealaspell.

God for detecting magic or hidden secrets, apparently.

Also, I've attempted to archive the original thread on sup/tg/. I'm not sure if it took.

rolled 59 = 59

>Let's try this spell.
It was already tried.

>>17679230
The Auror interacts with the plant ...
...
And is catapulted thirty feet into the air with a mighty "Bounce!"
He levitates himself and floats down peacefully.
Requisitions might have use for a bounce pad that you can grow.

Rolling to see if he Spots anything interesting on his descent.

rolled 51 = 51

>>17679266
He reports that he sensed "more magic" within the grove. Magic different to the plants you've seen thus far. However, he was unable to pinpoint exactly where it was coming from.
If you were to ask him exactly what kind of magic it was, he'd say:

>>17679275
That it was Fire magic, not Life or Earth magic.

>>17679275
Is it possible to take a sample of the plant without destroying it?

IE: In layman's terms, loot it.

>>17679287
Attempting to harvest the leaves results in Nightcrawler's hand flying away from him!
Pulling the plant up by the stalk causes it to shrivel.
... Hmm ...
Now, if you were looking to GROW a plant, what part of the plant would you normally need to take?

well, I'm going to get some sleep.

I've attempted to archive the previous thread,but sup/tg/ seems to hate me at present.

>>17679292
Note: Nightcrawler's hand is still attached. His shoulder's a bit sore from having his hand suddenly bounce, though.

>>17679292
. . . Seeds would count as a plant sample.

>>17679292
Kurt Wagner:Master Botanist!

OK, get the seeds.

>>17679306
This particular plant does not have any seeds, sadly.

So, where should the Auror and Nightcrawler search next?

>>17679321
take a cutting with the omni-tool.

>>17679321
any tubers near the roots? Also, any buds or vines?

>>17679321
ROOTS
Lets check for tubers or similar.

>>17679321
>>17679323
>>17679324
Sadly, this particular plant shrivelled when it was uprooted in an attempt to loot it whole. Its seeds withered too.

here's the sucky archiving of the last thread:
http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/17674594/

can somebody else try and archive so the actual thread shows up?

>>17679338
next set of plants then.

>>17679338
Are there any unused pots around?
>nclti explore
You tell it, captcha.

>>17679343
presumably the grove the Auror saw were fire flowers.

rolled 75 = 75

>>17679343
>next set of plants then.
You move to the next set of plants, and find...
>presumably the grove the Auror saw were fire flower
Do you wish to search the garden for something matching the description of a fire flower?

>>17679362
You find: LOADS OF SEEDS!
Items obtained: 2/?
Requisitions might find these seeds useful.

>>17679353
We should loot those. But scan for traps first.
>inb4 OMG WE CAN'T LOOT IT"S NOT PART OF THE PLAN TROLL LEARN 2 CONTRIBUTE

rolled 27, 90 = 117

>>17679374
>Scan for traps
>Loot fire flowers
You search for the flowers.
You also search for anything resembling traps.

>>17679386
Though you didn't find the flowers, you DID find traps.
To be more precise: You found these.
Requisitions has some of these already, but they aren't easy to mass-produce, so more might be worth something.
The problem is, how do you Loot a piranha plant?

>>17679408
You jump on its head until it spits out gold coins.

>>17679408
Knock it out on the head with an object.

>>17679410
That's not how you loot Piranha Plants! That's how you get bitten by them!

I think this quest is supposed to raise the IQ of the players in the main quest and get them to play faster.

Freeze spell. It'll end up in a block of ice, and we can shove the whole thing in our bag.

>>17679408
You loot the entire pipe/vase. Don't forget to stand on top if it is in a vase, while it is retracted.

>>17679425
Wait for it to retract into the ground, and then take its entire vessel, and plug it's exit point.

>>17679423
>Freeze spell. It'll end up in a block of ice, and we can shove the whole thing in our bag.
Right you are.
Be warned: Ice melts. If your Auror dies while on this mission, you will need to dump the Piranha plant and will be unable to loot it.
ITEMS OBTAINED: 3/?
>>17679425
>>17679431
A Secondary plan is made. You may now keep the plant even if your Auror dies!

Do you wish to continue searching the garden, go indoors, or do something else?

>>17679437
Bring back the plants to the scout craft.

>>17679444
You return the Seeds, the Mushrooms and the Piranhas to the scout craft.
Your Bag of Holding is now empty.

Where to now?

>>17679408
Like this.

>>17679437
teleport to recharge room after scrying to make sure it's empty. Also cast invisibility and use some kind of rope to tie our two together so they don't trip over each other.

>>17679467
You are leaving the garden, satisfied with your loot from it?
Nightcrawler points out that we haven't viewed the greatest cluster of abnormal plants yet.

>>17679475
ok. go there then.

Back to the objective at hand.

Whatever is in the basement, lies our objective. Cutting power to the mansion probably won't work because the power supply might be guarded.

To get past the cameras, we'll need to BAMF! past them.

It's time to use our Metal Gear Solid skills to use. We could try knocking out a guard and looting his stuff, or try disguising as one using magic.

>>17679475
Let's look at that cluster then.

>>17679482
The only guards you have seen thus far are women.
It may be difficult to disguise as a woman.

>>17679480
>>17679487
How are you approaching the cluster?

>>17679493
Scry first.

>>17679493
That's what you think, OP.
>doyoudareentermymagicalrealm.jpg
Nah. We should scout the power source, see if it's guarded. If it is, we'll have to figure out some way of taking out the guards without alerting the whole mansion.

>>17679493
Transfigure an object into a small animal and get it to approach the plants.

rolled 33 = 33

>>17679519
The Auror scries the cluster...

>>17679524
We could transfigure a whole bunch of objects into swarms of rats and then sneak into the mansion amidst the confusion.

rolled 28 = 28

>>17679527
The Auror sees a large amount of Bounce plants, all arranged in a way so that one plant points to another one.
The Auror sees no pots
The Auror sees the usual assortment of growth-accelerated earth trees.
>>17679525
A rat approaches the plants. It is unharmed, and the plants do not react to it.
It scurries over to the makeshift "tent", where line of sight is broken and vision is lost.

>>17679545
Also, sorry for the late reply, was checking whether Transfig could turn any object into a small animal and the small animal still be alive (it can).

>>17679530
Transfigure swarms of rats and then use the Oppugno spell to get the rats to attack people in the mansion. This should induce even more confusion. Add wasps and spiders to really fuck up the security troops.

>>17679545
check for seeds/tubers/buds, CAREFULLY.
Loot them, sever the stem so we don't set it off accidentally.

>>17679567
Are you sending a person in to do this?
The Rat will not accept commands this complex.

>>17679569
Let nightcrawler do it. If he knocks himself into the air again, he can teleport to the ground.

rolled 89 = 89

>>17679563
>>17679530
As for operation: Ratzerg:
This is indeed possible, and will be considered when we move back to the mansion.

It practically suggests itself.

rolled 67, 8 = 75

>Secondary goal: Find criminal evidence on the Grognard

>>17679578
Nightcrawler walks over.
Spot vs. Spot. You get a rather large bonus considering INVISIBLE.

>>17679580
Fun fact; Nightcrawler can teleport 1/2 a mile with somebody along for the ride. So why are we doing the rat thing again?

>>17679598
Nightcrawler notices that Amalia has returned to her makeshift tent.
Amalia is busily fixated on the Rat, and hasn't noticed anything.
Amalia has a bag near her bedside.
The plants here are just that - normal plants, albeit growth accelerated.
Regardless, MORE SEEDS are looted.

What now?

If the guards are women, chances are they've been charmed using the chocolates.

We can pull a Big Boss here and subvert several guards onto our side by dispelling the charm magic.

>>17679605
A player believes that sending a rat to scout will result in less damage being taken.

Here? The grove is completely harmless. I just sent you some "how do you approach this potentially hazardous situation" requests, so you don't get meta about which situations are and are not harmful.

>>17679611
Awaiting input.

We can't head right up and dispel the charm's effects on Amalia--- the effects are too strong to merely dispel. We could knock her out or put her to sleep.

Then again, the situation calls for disabling the problem at its source, since we'll need to hurry and grab all the girls at once and escape if we are to take them as they are.

>>17679648
Do you want to risk casting several dispells on Amalia?

If we had nannybags we could simply kill the girls and stuff their heads in to make it easier.

>>17679612

Hm. Nightcrawler could teleport in, grab a guard chilling out by herself, and bring her back to the Auror to cure. And if their not being controled, we could always Oblivate the guard.

>>17679648
It is not necessary for you to disable all the girls.
Your mission goals are:

#1. Find out what's allowing those characters to come in from other worlds, and swipe it.

SIDE GOALS:
#1: COMPLETE
#2: Despite having a harem, there must be a place where the Mansion owner goes to be alone. Find such a place, and our assassins' team will have a much easier job.
#3: There's bound to be lots of loot in this place. Collect all the interesting loot you can.
#4: Abduction is a crime, but magic love potions can't be explained to the local police. Find mundane evidence of the Owner's crimes.

SHIT TO AVOID:
#1: Don't kill any of the girls. You do this, you're fired.
#2: Injuries to the girls' health and sanity may cause problems in returning them to their canons. Try not to do this.
#3: Troops and Heroes are expensive to replace. Lose as few as you can.

>>17679645
Oh, and you've got Nightcrawler looking at Amalia at the moment, who is distracted, and has a bag of some sort with her.
What do you do, /tg/?

>>17679660
Thus far, you have identified 6 targets.
Renamon
Princess Peach
Chun-Li
Sailor Mercury
Amalia
A Tiefling Warlock (name unknown as of yet).
There are also, in addition to these:
Someone using a Geodude
A Teacher
A Robot girl

It may be possible to abduct and dispel one. It may not! We shall see.

>>#1. Find out what's allowing those characters to come in from other worlds, and swipe it.

It's probably in the basement.
Can the auror scry the mansion?

>>#4: Abduction is a crime, but magic love potions can't be explained to the local police. Find mundane evidence of the Owner's crimes.

Cure some of the guards. That should help us with the mundane crimes part.


We can steal Amalia's bag if we cast Obscuro or Confundo on her and then Nightcrawler ports in.

The robot girl should be the easiest to dispel. That or we hold down/silence Amalia and dispel her repeatedly.

>>17679700
>Can the auror scry the mansion?
He has done so already at a few locations. Is there anything specific that you want him to scry?

>>17679700
>Cure some of the guards. That should help us with the mundane crimes part.
Guards that must be returned to their home canons cannot afford to waste time giving testimonies.
>We can steal Amalia's bag if we cast Obscuro or Confundo on her and then Nightcrawler ports in.
Indeed you could.

>>17679725
No canon native guards, huh?

As for Amalia: Spells in this order:

Silencio
Confundo (Nightcrawler comes in right after the auror casts this)
Petrificus totalus

then start spamming the dispells.

rolled 3 = 3

>>17679741
Let's roll spot first to see if you notice a crucial detail.

>>17679725
Welp, I can't think of anyway he could be charged for this shit in universe. Guess we have to take the law into our own hands, again.

>>17679725
We should scry for the path to the basement.

rolled 22, 41, 52 = 115

>>17679741
>>17679750
Right. Let's get Nightcrawler's, the Auror's, and Amalia's initiative.
>>17679752
Your post misses something and reveals an ignorance, but I will not correct it. Just know that it is wrong.
>>17679753
Tried. Found cameras. Nothing else. Anything more specific

>>17679767
Scry *backwards*, as in, see where the basement exits from, so we can see what rooms connect to it.

>>17679767
The Auror casts a Silencing charm.
A ring on her finger flashes, and Amalia is on guard. She says, "Where are you?", in a voice that implies she clearly is not silent.

With a "Confundo", Nightcrawler BAMFs in, steals her sack, and ports out before she can act. Amalia now seems somewhat confused.

Upon casting Petrificas Totalis, Amalia's body stiffens and becomes immobile. The ring on her finger has a subtle glow, which is increasing quickly over time.

The bag contains:
Chocolate. Lots of Chocolate.

>>17679802
As it is now 4am, I shall save that for next time. The players must now resolve the Amalia situation in relative safely, and we shall deal with the Mansion tomorrow.

>>17679807
No input? Very well. I'll just have Nightcrawler and the Auror teleport to safety.

And that's it for today. See you tomorrow, some time when I wake up - which could be anywhere between 18:00 and 22:00. Peace.

>>17679807
Amalia normally isn't wearing any rings. I say, we yank the ring off her hand and bury it, or we throw it into the bag of holding to suppress whatever might be going on.

>>17679890
Well spotted.

rolled 56 = 56

>>17679898
Oh, and before I forget:
Rolling for extra complications, if any. Very likely that none will arise.

Here's your chance.

Ha Ha who am I kidding, it's the internet, that won't happen.

>>17679905

It's a green glow, which we know by now from the window, to counteract against magic or anyone casting magic. We'll have to risk sacrificing the bag of holding right now and use it to contain what's going to happen with the ring.

We could theoretically cast Defodio into the ground to make a hole to dump the ring into, but the ring will predictable react again to the Auror or Amalia.

If anything in general, the ring is protecting Amalia.

OK, guys?

Let's keep a few things in mind for when the quest fires up again.

1. The five Ps. we do not commit to a course of action without careful consideration of the consequences.
2.COMMON SENSE. Bootleg OP is much less forgiving, so we need to consider all complications, even the obvious stuff.
3.The Chocolate. The Auror can maybe cure some of the girls who've eaten less chocolate with Finite. Apparently, how much chocolate they have is a indicator of how much they've eaten. If we can do this, it'll make our infiltration far easier. Since they'll get mindwiped before being sent home, we shouldn't have to worry too much (although a cover story might be worth considering.)
4. 'stick to the plan, chums!' we need to keep our objectives in mind. Whacking the grognard and getting the girls out are tertiary objectives. We need to get what we came for-and focus upon low-risk secondary objectives, if at all possible. We got too damn ambitious on the first run, and it bit us in the ass.

>>17682627
We can get the SUE sacked for drug trafficking by presenting the chocolates from Amalia's bag as "drug-tainted".

>>17682627

If we're up for being a more morally flexible version of our main quest counterparts, we could try utilizing small bits of chocolate to make the girls not want to kill us on sight. It seems to work immediately to invoke lust, and over time it seems to seat an instinctual liking/tolerance for a person regardless of appearance; Peach seemed to not be too eager to participate in what she thought was some sorta sex fantasy before eating some of the chocolate.

A bite-size piece caused immense feelings. Perhaps half that or a smaller piece would make the girls cooperate with us or merely not want to kick our asses or scream whenever they saw us.

I say we use the chocolates on any of the women we can feasibly use them on. If nothing else, they'll be less hostile to us, and if we're lucky, we can nab them for eventual return to their home canons after we take them back to requisitions HR.
Any left over chocolates we turn over for DOSH.

This said, if there is no good opportunity (like with Peach tied up), we shouldn't try to force one. Primary goals first, then secondary and chocolate based kidnapping third.

>>17687046
We use the rest of the chocolates to throw James White into jail.

Right now we need to remove that damn ring, NOW. And contain it from affecting the auror or Amalia. The next thing to do, is to Imperio on Amalia to get her to eat the chocolate.

>>17679905
Remove the ring off Amalia. Hurry and contain the ring inside the Bag of Holding to suppress any incoming explosions.

Unfreeze Amalia.

Then have Nightcrawler hold her down, and quickly apply the Imperio spell on Amalia and get her to eat the chocolate.

>>17685278
>morally flexible
>nightcrawler
>pick one

Yeah, 'crawler is not liable to want a part in mindcontrol. If it was ultimate nightcrawler, maybe.

I say remove the ring, unfreeze her (with Finite), and be on standby. Finite might also remove the chocolate's affects, although this is unlikely. Then, knock here out with stupefy (or put her to sleep), and tie her up with Incarcerous if she still proves affected by the chocolate. Hopefully that'll keep her pacified. If we do that, though, make sure she's out of range of plants! COMMON SENSE, people1 We don't want the crew to be eaten by getting our own looted piranha plants set on us.

Might the level of chocolate exposure also be tied into how OOC the girls are? I mean, Mercury just wanted to study, rather than joining in Kinky funtimes, and I'm pretty sure canon Peach isn't into BDSM. Amalia being out gardening might mean she's salvagable.

Keep in mind, she may still be hopping mad at us, even if we knock off the chocolate's effects. We may need diplomacy by mr. Wagner.

>>17687755
Even if you remove the ring, it still will react to the Auror. You have to either poke a hole in the ground and bury it, or shove it in the Bag of Holding (more reliable, safer option).

also, try legimancy on her before unfreezing, to see what we can learn about the layout. Also, which girls are newest to the mansion, and thus are less corrupted.

>>17687808
Legilimens only AFTER you've contained and disabled the ring. Since the bag of holding is empty, we should use it as a psuedo-safebox to dump the ring in, akin to bomb disposal.

>>17687797
yes, dispose of the ring. i just hope if we chuck it in the bag, it won't explode.

I'm guessing chucking it out of the window isn't an option? Judging by the fact it started acting up from magic, just getting it away from us might be a good idea. Or finite on it (yeah I know, broken record) to see if we can disable its enchantment. If we somehow get Amalia or any of the girls on our side, they might need nonfunctioning rings to wear, else it might arouse suspicion.

Also:Antimagic ring+bag of holding=possibly a bad idea?

And just so I made it clear: NO MINDCONTROL! I doubt the auror or Nightcrawler are going to be morally comfortable with that sort of thing.

>>17687889
Yes, of course.

>>17687956

It's a tent. There are no windows. Also, the green flash = mansion goes back to alert status.

Finite while ring is stilla round = bad idea. The ring is charging up already. Don't push your luck.

>>17687994
right. just a thought. once we're rid of it, though, can we got with plan from >>17687755?

At the very least, does anyone agree with my 'more OOC means more controlled' hypothesis?

bootleg OP, where are you?

>>17688194
just woke up.

>>17688349
As a result, it'll be a while before my brain operates fully, but you seem to have some decent suggestions.

I'll start up a new thread once the other three quarters of my brain realise that I am not, in fact, still asleep.

Bootleg OP has equipped:
COFFEE
Bootleg OP has equipped:
BREAKFAST

Bootleg OP is powering up!

>>17684967
>We can get the SUE sacked for drug trafficking by presenting the chocolates from Amalia's bag as "drug-tainted"
OBJECTIVE COMPLETE!
>#4: Abduction is a crime, but magic love potions can't be explained to the local police. Find mundane evidence of the Owner's crimes.
Though how the fuck you managed to infer the chocolate was laced with regular opiates for its addictive qualities, in order to keep the charmed women eating it, using only the information you have been given, is truly beyond me.
Nonetheless, an objective is an objective, and this one is complete.

>>17687303
>The next thing to do, is to Imperio on Amalia to get her to eat the chocolate.
The Auror is unwilling to use any of the unforgivable curses.

So, you're trying to remove Amalia's ring while she's still in a confused state, dispel the chocolate's effect, and try to replace it with an effect towards your own troops.
Is that correct?
Might as well resolve the issue with Amalia before setting up #3.

rolled 55, 23, 70, 11 = 159

>>17688625
Because if so, some rolls are required.

>>17688625

Dispelling the chocolate's effects is a must either way.

The question here is whether dispelling the chocolate is going to make her not want to smash us.

>>17688681
Do you have any objections to the course of action described in >>17688625 ?

>>17679890
>>17679967
>>17688506

Rynex, carrying the quest team so hard.

>>17688708

It sounds as if we're removing the ring and seeing if the chocolate's effects can be dispelled first.

If we can't do #2, then trying to bend the effects of the chocolate into our favor is probably the next best thing.

>>17688625
That's fine. Just remove the ring, and keep Amalia held down while we dispell her out of her love-love-for-Master state

yes, try and get her out of the effect.
I'm pretty sure that Nightcrawler is not going to be happy with forcefeeding a brainwashed girl drug-riddled chocolates.

See if we can use diplomacy before mindcontrol on her.

rolled 15 = 15

>>17688760
Amalia's ring glows, and her petrification disappears.

As Nightcrawler moves to restrain Amalia, a yellow blur swishes by, stealing the bag of chocolate from Nightcrawler's hand, as a flash of green light from a ring on Renamon's paw dispels the Confundus effect from Amalia.
"You sick bastard.", Renamon complains.
The shock of this event makes Nightcrawler drop Amalia's ring - it is now on the ground.

The Auror hits Amalia with a dispel - though you aren't entirely aware of its effects just yet.

Amalia reacts to this quite predictably - Vines spring up, and start attempting to constrict Nightcrawler.

>>17688506

I didn't make that logical leap, but only that you can spin the effects of the chocolate to the cops as coming from drugs.

>>17688760
Good luck getting Nightcrawler to sign off on that. Our best bet is restore her mind, and try and talk her into helping us. If not, put her to sleep and use legimancy.

>>17688844
WHAT THE FUCK?

I THOUGHT WE HAD HER ON THE SHIP, DAMNIT!

FUCK'S SAKE!

>>17688844
>>more green rings

That neckbeard sure takes precautions on everyone.

Hmm....

The Auror needs to jump on the ring. Cover it with his whole body and then shove the ring into the bag of holding.

Then cast expeliarmus to make the vines release Nightcrawler.

>>17688891
Nightcrawler is unable to teleport while holding 4 people. He opted to teleport out with the Auror.

And now, I'm pleased to introduce to you a new quest mechanic:
COMMON SENSE!

Whenever the players do something unusually clever, they earn 1 lightbulb!
Whenever the players would perform an action that would severely hinder them, but which at least one of the characters present under their command would be smart enough to object to, then they lose 1 lightbulb, but the disasterous thing does not happen.

You currently have 2 lightbulbs, owing to Rynex's magnificent team carrying and deduction.

>>17688844
god damnit, this is beyond FUBAR.

>sick bastard
well, she's one to talk, considering what's been done to her.

OK, the rings apparently have a proximity effect.

New standing order: we find and subdue any girl, we take her to the ship before trying to deprogram her.

Ooooh, shit. Next mission, we're going to buy a couple of mk2 pistols/mosin nagant, and tranq darts + emotive ammo (MGS gear).

Relying only on a two-man team makes things tough.

>>17688968
Finally. Something to make up for not having Normal TG Quest's crew on hand.
NOW, the goal is to try to subdue any charmed woman, secure her in the ship, and then reduce their threat to a null-variable before heading out.
So, any ideas as to where to re-insert?
Also, we've got the Grognard secured and in custody, correct?

And yes.
Amalia and Renamon have aggroed, and Nightcrawler has vines around his ankles. You are in the Garden, at Amalia's grove.
What actions will you take?

>>17689021
The Grognard is not secure.
The only things you have secured thus far are 3 loot items.

OK, if I may, I have a deduction to make of my own.

The more out-of-character a person is acting, the greater the exposure. Therefore, we should target people like Amalia who are showing signs of their canon interests (like Amalia and her gardening, or Sailor Mercury and her studying), as they are liable to be easier to deprogram.

Agreed?

>>17689035
*sigh* I thought Nightcrawler had already. Damn, we're incompetent.
>>17689022
IDEA: Cast Lumos, have Nightcrawler teleport into the newly made shadow behind the Auror, hold them back until we can back off.
OTHER IDEA: Drop a Shield Charm to keep Renamon back, and then try to teleport to safety from there.

Any problems with either of these? I know there are those out there who are paying more attention to this than I am, and I'm forgetting where Amalia is from.

>>17689062
she's from the Wakfu cartoon.

Guys, what's a Grognard?

>>17689082
Ah. That doesn't look too bad-
>>17689095
>mfw
Like 'neckbeard', but even less commonly used.
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/grognard

>>17689095
it's our codename for the guy who's assembled this little house of horrors.

>>17689062
A druid from Wakfu. Summons vines, flower bombs.

You have 3 suggestions given so far:
#1: Subdue Amalia, try to apply chocolate to her, as the Auror dives on her ring and contains it
#2: The Auror casts Lumos, Nightcrawler teleports behind the Auror, and attempts to exfiltrate with the Auror.
#3: The Auror casts a Shield charm, Nightcrawler teleports to the Auror, and attempts to exfiltrate with the Auror.
And, as always:
#4: Something else.
Which plan do you think is best for this situation? Vote now.

>>17689095
This one is obese and neckbearded.

>>17689123
I vote for no.2

>>17689161
Well, let's have the Auror use 'Protego Totalus' (anti-magic bubble shield), 'Accio Ring', 'Lumos', and then have Nightcrawler bamf, to get him and the Auror out of there ASAP.

Any alterations?

>>17689123
I'm saying no to using the chocolates. That's not what we do. and where we are might possibly backfire if she imprints on Renamon instead.

Suggest we exfiltrate and get back to looting.

Repeating my standing order: If we subdue a girl, remove her ring and port her to the ship were we can work on her uninterrupted.

rolled 22 = 22

Let's see how tactically-minded the enemy are. You want this roll low.

>>17689188
We could theoretically accio the rings off Renamon AND Amalia.

>>17689200
Decent.
>>17689204
Now that I think about it, that sounds fun.
'Protega Totalus' 'Accio Rings', and 'Lumos' to get ready for ex-fil.

>>17689188
>>17689200
"GEODUDE! use ROCK TOMB!"
"Diamond storm!"

A Flurry of Diamonds, and a hail of rocks, both bash down onto the spot where Nightcrawler was just half a second ago.
Nightcrawler teleports over to the Auror for extraction, unable to grab the ring in time.
Vines spring up, tangling the Auror before he notices them - your Auror is now entangled!
A protective bubble springs up around the Auror. It holds against a stray rock - for now.

>>17689200
22

hoorah! the dice favour us!

amending my standing order, if we subdue a girl AND can extract her without risk of detection, then do it.

But we really should keep that low on the list.

Renamon appears to be fairly high-up, so deprogramming is unlikely to be successful. But if we can get info out her head, then that might be useful.

>>17689237
While Renamon is the kind to fight it out like a pouncing ninja with slashing maneuvers, she hasn't shown anything in the tv series that's plays out like an assassin or a running battle to catch the enemy in a moment of weakness.

>>17689262
The more turns we spend fighting here, more reinforcements will be arriving.

>>17689288
Right you are.

You are currently in a battle with Amalia, Renamon, and a Geodude.
The Auror has a protective bubble up around himself and nightcrawler.
A ring is on the ground.

>>17689247
if we get the chance, knock out the trainer! She should go do easy. Make sure she hasn't got any pokeballs, and bamf her up to the ship.

Only after we get the Auror out, mind. LEAVE NO MAN BEHIND.

>>17689312
So. what now?
A. Accio ring and gtfo
B. just gtfo
C. Attempt to subdue your attackers

how the fuck have we retardified this so badly? i went to bed and just came back and see us in a giant pile of shit, what the fuck?

what the shit actually happened after the grognard and renamon walked in?
Seriously guys, how in the fuck?

>>17689312
We've basically set off two alerts by now. We'll really have to play this the way Snake would have now.

>>17689247
Accio all nearby rings pronto, prepare to teleport out immediately and get ready for re-insertion. Probing attacks like these only work once or twice...
>>17689331
Yes, Accio ring(s) and GTFO.
>>17689334
People forgot (while I was asleep) to bamf the Grognard and Renamon after we secured the apartment. It got bad.
>>17689340
Haven't played MGS. Pray tell, what does that entail?

>>17689331
i vote A so that the ring is at least out of the way.

>>17689331
I vote A, and risk to accio away as many rings as we can during the escape.

>>17689357
essentially either subdueing the enemy or GTFOing away from danger as much as highly possible.
its a strategy game more or less where the point is to not get caught/have as little confrontational battles as possible while trying to do the objective.

rolled 49, 33, 14, 31, 64 = 191

>>17689334
>what the shit actually happened after the grognard and renamon walked in?
You subdued them properly and intelligently.
Then Peach rolled a 100 on her Wis check, and realised you were intruders, not new housemates.

I kind of expected you'd check what's inside each of the rooms before teleporting into one, or at the very least, HIDE instead of trying to disable and capture everyone.

>>17689360
>>17689362
>>17689357
Let's roll initiative.
Nightcrawler (+65), Auror (0), Renamon (+30), Amalia (0), Geodude (-30).

>>17689380
thanks.

also how does she wisdom when she was under a sleep spell?
that makes no sense, shes unaware of her surroundings.

>>17689331
gtfo.

if possible, port auror up to the ship, then get crawler to port down and grab the trainer, do several rapid teleports to disorient her, maybe even knock her out (he has done this in the comics, including knocking people out from the strain) maybe land her somewhere outside of the mansion's boundaries (NOT THE SHIP). KO her, strip her of her pokeballs while unconscious (stick them iin the back of holding), THEN bring her up to the ship.

>>17689404

Someone suggested that we tie up Peach with a spell. She woke up.

>>17689404
She woke up.
I guess.

>>17689422
with a sleep spell still going.

that doesn't work that way.

>>17689357
>>Haven't played MGS. Pray tell, what does that entail?

More manual sneaking, baiting guards with suspicious noises - knocking them out - and on-site procurement of equipment.

>>17689380
"Get behind me!"
Nightcrawler shouts as he assumes a defensive position, ready to defend the Auror against any attacks.

"DIAMOND STORM!"
A hail of diamonds pelts the Auror's shield.
The shield holds - at least for now.
"GEODUDE! use TACKLE!"
Geodude flies at a high speed towards the Auror... penetrating and breaking the shield! Nightcrawler blocks the Geodude's tackle, taking relatively little damage.
"ACCIO RING!"
Though Renamon and Roxanne's rings wiggle slightly, Amalia's flies right into the hands of the Auror.
"Herr wizard, let's get out of hier."
Nightcrawler BAMFs away with the Auror, and as he's doing so ...

... A rain of flower bombs explodes harmlessly on the ground where he and the Auror once were.

>>17689422
>>17689433
To be fair, you folks had considerable Plot armor in not waking her up instantly with Nightcrawler's BAMF.

I'm now writing up a summary for the next thread. We're not autosaging yet, but as you've exfiltrated successfully, this is a good point to write it up.

>>17689456
phew!

If possible, chaps, can we attempt this strategy once we drop off the Auror on the ship?
>>17689409
The only problem I can see with it is if she releases her aerodactlyl, so I'll ask for two confirmations before implementation.

>>17689456
>>17689490
Time for less Rambo, more Solid Snake. We really need to lay down everything we've known so far about the mansion and the targets. First thing to do is to figure out the floor plan of the mansion based on what we've seen and scried for. Then we figure out the extent of what Roxanne and Amalia can do.

rolled 18, 49 = 67

>>17689515
>The only problem I can see with it is if she releases her aerodactlyl
Lore, then Wis.

>>17689515
>Wis
If she had an Aerodactyl instead of a Geodude, she'd use the Aerodactyl.
From this, you conclude she does not have an Aerodactyl.

Strange. I can't seem to access Suptg's archive.

>>17689515
shit, I forget to implement the ring into my strategy. Make sure that 'crawler removes that before taking her up to the ship. And tell him to drop her off and remove the ring before it interferes with his porting too much.

Also, if we're playing snake, don't forget that Nightcrawler can cling to walls ala Spiderman and hide in (and possibly travel through) shadows.

>>17689611

Now how am I meant to re-read the mission briefing from thread 1?

>>17689650
Just recycle your second post, explain the archives are down, MetaInterference, etc.

>>17689546
right, so if she was getting teleported in midair, her pokemon would be useless? All of the others don't fly, going from what she has in the games.

Would her ring mess with nightcrawler's teleporting at all?
