Occupying what was once a multi-story parking lot, the Blaze is the latest addition to the nightlife of Downtown Sac. One of many rave clubs that sprouted off the ground and in cycles - like a colony of mushrooms right after a night of rainfall - will dissolve into anonymity after a short burst of popularity. That's the nature of fads.
Inside, where the darkness is cut by lasers and strobe lights, the ravenous crowd swings at the tune of a deafening electronic beat, a single mass of tangled flesh steered by the lone captain behind the mixer. The kind of music you can appreciate even more after having dropped a few happy pills and chugged down a bunch of cheap cocktails. Perfume, sex, sweat, the olfactory companions of their acidic trip.
Outside, by the main entrance, a large crowd gathers in a queue, waiting ordered behind rope barriers. The security staff, four bulky men donning black suits and sporting military buzz-cuts, slowly separate the VIP guests, those on the list - lucky enough to avoid the round of invasive patting and the metal detector - from the rest.
On the other side of the street, two young paramedics are sharing a cigarette, their backs planted against their ambulance. They're on call, Clubs like this are no strangers to medical emergencies.
Tonight the Awakened are looking for informations. A powerbroker, somebody or something inside the building with a network deep enough to know the address of a single warehouse among the thousands in the greater Oakland area. The place where a specific group of criminals are operating from.
This is a plot thread. Combat is a possibility and death is not out of question, but events will unfold in accordance to your decisions (ie. you might be able to skip every encounter, as always, it's up to your toons' common sense). Clues might be scattered around, I'm not always prompting dice rolls, so you'll have to be creative with your mage sights.
For the sake of simplicity, we assume you start the scene after a refresh with full WP, hp and mana pools.
Please list your active sights, rituals, spells. Please list your equipment, weapons, both USB sticks, tools, gadget. In case of spells performed in the first post, attach the relative rolls.
Preemptively roll init and another chance die and attach both rolls. The chance die will be used to determine the target in case we ever enter combat (if it ever comes to that, I'll roll 20 dice, the first dice from the left = to any of your rolls will be the first target)
