JiC 1d20: [20] = 20
JiC 1d100: [100] = 100
Conditions:

|The Hub| MercTown State Bank (17)
With plenty of money to burn from two profitable jobs, it was time for Lithium to open a bank account. Now that she was primarily a legitimate mercenary, she had little to worry about someone looking at her funds and thinking she might be earning her money illegally.

Waiting her turn, she stepped up to the counter and said to the bank teller, “Good day. I would like to open an account under the name Lithium Meg.”


|The Spokes| Wilderness Equipment Outlet (95)
Walking into the Outlet, Lithium looks for things she might need as a newbie merc. Gearing gear was necessary. Anything else that would come up, like the train heist, would be mission-essential purchases as needed. Coming here was to fulfill the task of being ready for general-purpose paid-for-hire soldiers of fortune.

Once she had inspected the store, she brought the items she thought would be a promising start up to the counter.

Purchasing:
All-in-One Utility belt
Heavy Duty “overland” harness and frame (going for the package deal).

|The Arms Bazaar| Outrider Armaments (120)
Working her way back to her more familiar roots of the Black Market, she walks through the door.

“Hey, amigos, can someone here help a girl with a ride?”

She came prepared and placed a slip of paper down. Requesting one of the rebuild jobs for the CS AFC-111 Scout Rocket Cycle. She figured with their work, having something fast and putting out a decent amount of firepower would work to everyone’s advantage. Plus ammo: frag missiles. She will attempt to add the rockets as part of the whole package.

--- HUB / Naruni [Naruni Enterprises Building (21) ---

Lahz and Ray enter the Naruni store somewhat warily. The Psi-Tech will approach a sales associate as available and greet them, "I am looking for a Force Field for installation in an armor. I'd rather have you guys do the install, but it's going to be field job in a few weeks so I can't have the armor brought in here .... I am looking for a N-F40A Heavy Force Field."

N-F40A Heavy Force Field
Mercenaries Pg 126
• M.D.C. 110
• Weight: 15 Ibs (6.8 kg)
• No movement penalties.
• 8 hour duration per E-clip.
Black Market Cost: 120,000 credits

Lahz's intention is actually to install this Forcefield himself in his (around town) Roadrunner Power-Armor, but since he has already had Naruni install in his other PA, the Psi-Tech figures he can handle this himself.

--- Mystic Quarter / Armstrong-Bennett TW Armaments (128) ---

Lahz and Ray enter Armstrong and Bennett's and the Psi-Tech looks around. When he files a salesman, he introduces himself once more, "Hi, I had some customization done on a Power Armor of mine a while back through you guys. I also was looking to purchase some items you were out of back then. I am looking to see what you have in stock."

Having had all his equipment needs taken care of by his former employers, Crow is unsure how to approach the clerk at the counter. Finally deciding the blunt approach couldn't hurt. He waits for a clerk to attend the other customers before addressing them. "I'm in the market for a specialized Techno-wizard gauntlet, specifically one that shoots flames for crowd control."

Ronan walks into the Northern Gun Store and starts perusing their motorcycles, looking to replace his bike with either a new Road Hog or a Streatwolf. Ronan fully expects a sales rep to approach him and try to get the sell. Whether a rep approaches him or he tracks down one, he'll greet them the same and turn up his A-game.

"Hello there. Looking to replace my bike. Want to see what sort of deals you got on a Road Hog or Streetwolf. Oxide engine. No weapons. I'd also like to see about getting a custom paint job." Ronan says to the rep.

Neither the NG-CM12 Streetwolf Motorcycle and Road Hog Motorcycle have a listed rarity and are suggested to be made in bulk, suggesting common-uncommon availability.

"Hello there. Looking for a good and loyal animal. Something strong but trainable. Read about Panthera... Thrinax*? Got a cub, or do you know where I can find one?"

Ronan walks into the weapons store looking for a heavy hitting, sexy looking pistol he can use on occasion. He will walk right up to the counter and address the rep. "Hello there. Looking for a piece that'll really make a statement. Revolver of some sort. Doesn't need to have high ammo capacity, but does need to hit like a truck. I heard there was this brand called Magnum. Let's look at one of those." Ronan asks. Ronan is specifically looking for the GAW .44 Magnum Revolver.

Lithium Meg Shopping:

Merctown Bank:

A teller redirects Meg to a personal banker. She is then introduced into a litany of personal and business accounts. Finally, Meg and the personal banker agree that Meg is best suited with a cheap personal account for now with no processing fee, so long as she maintains a trivial minimum balance of 50 credits.

Meg is given a form to fill out. The form asks for details such as next of kin, address, etc etc. Much of these details are optional.

Wilderness Equipment Outlet(95).
Meg obtains the utility belt and the harness and frame for MSRP (according to book price). (OOC: Meg, when shopping for item, please add page number, book, the MSRP price for the item. See Steve's stuff as an example. As a caution to future posts, the less I have to work, the better your shopping rolls as well.)

Her attempts to purchase a CS sky cycle are rendered moot. The black market is currently out of inventory per skycycles. The usual places also seem to have a derth of functional CS equipment. Meg suspects that this is due a supply chain hit. The clerk helpfully hand the business card of a northern gun sales person and the Weapons Bazaar sell center.

Meg finally heads to the mystique quarter where she looks for a Thundergun. She finds the item for 80k.

(Should you decide to finish these transactions out, go ahead and submit a subsequent post with the following information)
a) how much do you want to deposit in the bank account. which cred stick should I delete the balance from
b) if you are going to buy the utility belt and the bag, and you are going to give me the page and book the item comes from. Then tell me which cred stick I extract the balance from
c) Should you go into northern gun to look for a different hovercycle, you'll find it very well stocked. Again, please give me the page number and book of the item you want, along with the price. Then tell me which cred stick to extract the balance from.
d) Should you want the gun, tell me which cred stick to take the 80k out of.

Lahz shopping requests:

1) Naruni Forcefield.

The naruni sales rep looks at Lahz gravely. "Installing this yourself, on a PA. This will take a bit of skill..."

Then the Naruni sales rep listens to the other requests, including the armoring of the Triax vehicle. Finally the Uteni replies:

"Listen, the armoring of the Triax Vehicle itself is going to take about a month, even if I put a rush on the order. Expect to put about 6000 creds per unit of additional armor on the front, and 7500 creds per unit of armor on the back. You can put another 250 on the front and 300 on the back. That's 1500000 for the front and 2250000 for the back. Since this is such an expensive order, we are prepared to do your forcefield install as well, and we can get that to you at the end of the week if you leave your armor with us today." The Uteni seems to be in a hurry to close the deal.

At Armstrong Bennet, Lahz meets with the engineering sales rep. He rep replies: "Thank you for your business sir. I hope you are happy with the results."

The lightning blaster is installed as ordered. The four bug zappers are already packaged and are ready to be transported to the haunt.
The tech also responds that the TW mod for the 250MD barrier bypass is largely successful. However, there is one caveat. The power cannot manifest a physical effect, i.e. a force bolt or a telekinesis or pyro/electro/hydrokinesis directly. Ergo, Telemechanics is fine, but Telemechanics Paralysis, OTOH, is not.

(OOC I'm putting this effect in so that it's not game breaking)

Devilman's does not have the TK resin weaponry on hand, but they do have the wilks gatling laser for 90k and the normal tk rifles for 100k each.

If Lahz agrees to the above purchases, please indicate a note on which cred stick(s) to deduct from and which inventory sheets to update.

Mystic Quarter|Armstrong-Bennett TW Armaments

Having had all his equipment needs taken care of by his former employers, Crow is unsure how to approach the clerk at the counter. Finally deciding the blunt approach couldn't hurt. He waits for a clerk to attend the other customers before addressing them. "I'm in the market for a specialized Techno-wizard gauntlet, specifically one that shoots flames for crowd control."

Fire gout (lvl 7) - 70,000

That's the price of the spell or scroll. There's no real comparable device that works like this. You have flame throwers and what not, but they are a lot less discreet. I'm gonna make something up. 150k for a device, shoots firegout at lvl 7. three times per storm fire Magic Energy Cells. (P. 112 Federation of Magic).

Mystic Quarter| StormSpire Store

Crow walks into the stormspires only regional franchise, his eyes bouncing from display case to display case and the lethal goods incased within. He rings the bell as he reaches the counter.
With a slight bow Crow greets Tempestro. "I am looking for Battery Talismans, approximately three."

PPE Battery (BOM PG. 150) 10k each

Skill rolls:
Lore Magic 55%
1d100: [79] = 79

(OOC PPE Battery Talismans require 1k per PPE point. If you want a 40 PPE battery, that's 40k. If you want 100 PPE battery, that's 100k.
If the price point here looks random, it's because it kinda is. I'm using the Stormfire price for a PPE magazine on page 112, WB 16 and going from there.

Please size you battery(s) accordingly. Also, I don't see you getting paid on your char sheet. Please fix. )

[Crow]

Updated my pay. Sounds good for the TW Gauntlet Flamer, and three 100 ppe batteries will work fine. Thank you for elaborating.
Total would be
-TW Gauntlet: 150k

Total 450,000 Cr.

Wayne strolls into Nine Lives with his broken down FreeRunner in tow. "Yes, hello. A very bad man dropped a bomb on me and I would like to repair the damage from that. I have heard you are the best in town, which is exactly what a refined gentleman such as myself requires. What is your price?" He places the armor on the counter to be diagnosed.

The attendant takes a good long gander at what remains of the FreeRunner.

"This is an overhaul and a complete rebuild of the armor. At least the exo skeleton control plane wasn't damaged. However, your helmet sensors will need to be touched up again. Some of the sensors are scrap and they will need replacing and recaliberating."

"100k. Two weeks. Good as new."

Sir Northblade opens the door to Kraus Imported Arms and the familiar scent of cigarette smoke and gunoil wafts toward his nostrils. "Hallo. Ich möchte mir einen Ersatz-FreeRunner kaufen.

Unfortunately we will have to go a bit beyond MSRP for the freerunner model. You will have to pay 165k for them. However, we can let you purchase both if you are willing to do the fitting today, for 205k."

|Arms Bazaar | Northern Gun Store|

Ronan walks into the Northern Gun Store and starts perusing their motorcycles, looking to replace his bike with either a new Road Hog or a Streatwolf. Ronan fully expects a sales rep to approach him and try to get the sell. Whether a rep approaches him or he tracks down one, he'll greet them the same and turn up his A-game.

"Hello there. Looking to replace my bike. Want to see what sort of deals you got on a Road Hog or Streetwolf. Oxide engine. No weapons. I'd also like to see about getting a custom paint job." Ronan says to the rep.

Neither the NG-CM12 Streetwolf Motorcycle and Road Hog Motorcycle have a listed rarity and are suggested to be made in bulk, suggesting common-uncommon availability.

Invoke Trust: 1d100: [61] = 61 / 24%

"Ahhhh, we have just a new shipment of the Road Hogs. They will go at 350k each, MSRP. We don't have a new Streetwolf, but we have a refurb unit of 250k, nothing wrong with it. Same top speed, just the main body only has 70 MDC. What will it be?"

|Mystic Quarter | Bestiary of the Bizarre|

After scouting out (and maybe purchasing) a bike, he heads to the Bestiary in the mystic quarter and begins perusing the available animals. Hmm, no. Too small. No. Too needy. Hmm, somehow not independent enough OR dependent enough. Ronan says as he considers which one speaks to him the most.

"Hello there. Looking for a good and loyal animal. Something strong but trainable. Read about Panthera... Thrinax*? Got a cub, or do you know where I can find one?"

Panthera-Thrinax WB26, pg 32. Cost: 1,000cr for a cub. Considered common-uncommon travel companions and war-pets.

"Ahhh you would like a cub of this specie of deadly predator? How do you presume to train it? Do you have any training in animal husbandry? The Panthrinax is animal that keeps few friends, but is loyal as hell. However, training it will require special expertise itself, as it is an animal that requires positive reinforcement training only. You can't yell at it, it has to like you and respect you before it will be your companion. How would you like to proceed?"

The Hub || Golden Age Weaponsmiths|

Ronan walks into the weapons store looking for a heavy hitting, sexy looking pistol he can use on occasion. He will walk right up to the counter and address the rep. "Hello there. Looking for a piece that'll really make a statement. Revolver of some sort. Doesn't need to have high ammo capacity, but does need to hit like a truck. I heard there was this brand called Magnum. Let's look at one of those." Ronan asks. Ronan is specifically looking for the GAW .44 Magnum Revolver.

GAW .44 Magnum Revolver: Considered common - 600cr, will also purchase at least two boxes of ammunition and speed loaders.

Research: 1d100: [56] = 56 /54%

Ronan finds the gun and ammo readily available and is available for purchase for 800cr, weapon, ammo, speedloaders etc etc.

Any help in looking for these would be greatly appreciated. Ronan doesn't have the best shopping skills.

“I think that will do.” She orders weapons to go along with the hovercycle:

Ronan consider the options and nods. "Think I'll go for the Streetwolf. Might come back for a Hog later though." Ronan says and will purchase the Streetwolf motorcycle. "This one is a bit for flashy than the Hog is but that's not a bad thing." Ronan considers as he studies the Streetwolf. Maybe I should take a couple mechanics classes so I can maintain my own bike? Ronan muses privately.

Ronan also heads over towards to check out some of the gun stores, looking for something that strikes him. Ideally, he finds a NE-75H Shoulder Cannon. When he spots the exquisitely designed alien sniper rifle, the first thing that pops to mind is how good it'd look in Mierin's hands. Damn, Queen would murder with this thing. Plus, she helped me find the KLS owner too. Ronan thinks and will buy it and several cases of ammo.

Ronan shrugs with a smirk. "I was actually hoping there was a training manual that you sell as well. Never trained an animal like this before but read about it being an excellent watchdog and responsive to training if gotten as a cub. I certainly know how to garner respect." Ronan says with a smirk. "So, one of those cubs, some supplies and any training manuals you have?" Ronan confirms his intent to buy.
