Daytime Phase day 4. After the battle, Vera makes it to the shopping district, panting heavily from the physical exhaustion of running, carrying you in the phylactery. Not wanting to draw attention to herself she goes into an alleyway and hides while catching her breath. In the morning, as you contemplate how to get out of this situation while Vera sleeps behind a dumpster on a piece of cardboard, you feel a strange tugging sensation, similar to what you felt with Scurvy before, but it goes away as quickly as it appeared, leaving you a bit uneasy. What do you and Vera do for your Day-time phase?

(Reminder to get your actions in before 21 tomorrow, especially if your scene might impact other players!)

Right, so, I think that I will have Vera call Lillian, and have her take one of those bank deposit boxes and place my phylactery in it. May not help much with mages, but at the very least it might inconvenience them a bit if they decide to try for it.

(Fair enough, so basically going to the bank district with Vera and Lillian?)

(Yes, but I think I would give Vera the option of opting out from this point on if she wants to. Things have gotten a little bit hairy, and she has kinda done more than what was expected of her.)

Vera politely declines your offer with a shake of her head and intends to keep helping you. As you get to the bank sub-district, you notice that the people there seem unusually upset. You also notice some weird crimson rune-like markings along the sub-district. (Nat 20! Woo! IPs already added) As Lillian discusses the matter with the teller, she is rudely turned away. Confused, she returns to you in the nearby alley and explains that the tellers seem to be stopping any transactions within the bank. One of them even loudly exclaimed "YOU WON'T TAKE MY MONEY!", which she found highly unprofessional and strange. What do you do at that point? (edited)

(That's, uh...)
(That's alarming.)
(Sigh to meddle or not to meddle, that is the question...)

(Just to be clear, at the end of this Phase, you're probably gonna want to decide on a new Base location. If you don't, you don't get a regeneration roll during the next phase. If you switch bases you will reset the "timer" so you'd want to pick a spot you are comfortable with. Does that seem fair?)

(1 hour reminder. If you fail to finish this scene by the mark I will assume you stay in the Bank sub-district and choose an alley to be your home)

Nighttime Phase day 4. You remain in the alley within the Bank district, contemplating how to proceed… What do you and Vera do for your nighttime phase?

Well, there’s really not much to do but to start to try and recuperate my losses. We are gonna start by regenerating Davey methinks.

(Fair enough! make a /gmroll and hope for a 19 I suppose!)

Davey Bones 08-Dec-21 09:40 PM
Alright, how I do?

I'm gonna be honest with you, the anticipation is sort of killing me right now, I'd REALLY appreciate an answer soon!

Well, see, I asked you to roll a /gmroll 1d20 since I didn't really think it would be scaling off your Necromancy...
That being said...
You rolled a 19 so didn't even matter
So at the end of this Phase Davey will be back at 1 health. You get half health back each phase.

WOOP WOOP!
I should probably remove that IP then, right?

You know,you can probably keep it. Since you stay at 1 HP it's fine. Still keeps you very vulnerable.

Alright, I just gotta survive 9 more charges against Count Rosendo and I will have enough to level up my Pirate King stat!

Though you aren't necessarily safe. If someone were to go to the bank and attack you you will die before coming back technically. You resurrect at the end of the phase.
