"We need to figure out what we're dealing with. I saw the guy and he freaked me right the hell out. Have all the attacks been over near Granite where Randall was taken?" |

"Well, it ate Randall's eyes, whatever it was. I wonder if that's what it's doing with all it's victims." |

He shakes his hand.
"That fucker's been busy... Are they all missing their eyes like Randall?" |

Ollie leaves his skateboard at the front desk and is escorted by a receptionist to where Jenner and Roberts are meeting.
He approaches them, looking around at the bodies laid out. Looking at them he says "I'm Ollie, I talked to uhh Jenner on the phone." |

Ollie takes the card, casts a look at it, and sticks it in his pocket. "Thanks a ton for talking to me, man. I'll give you a call, and I promise not to cast anything else in the club, sorry again about that. I'll see you later, man. I'm gonna go call that Jenner guy you talked about."
Ollie leaves the office, reentering the noisy club. He waves to the girl at the bar who'd encouraged him to smile, and retrieving his skateboard, emerges from the club into the Sacramento nighttime.
Fumbling in a pocket of his cargo pants, he finds a scratched up old Nokia and types in Jenner's number. He holds the phone to his ear while he skates down the sidewalk just for the skating of it really. |

"He was real hooded up, like he didn't want to be seen. The only thing I can tell you is that if it was no normal guy. Maybe he was one of us, I really wouldn't know, but I don't think so. I wasn't even there in person, I was just looking back at what happened and I still felt like being in... it's.. presence was weakening me. Like it was sucking out my energy... It said; "these windows belong to me now," then it just plucked out his eyes and stuck em in it's face, or where it's face would be. Like I said I couldn't see it." |

Ollie waves away the cigarette.
"All I saw missing was the eyes. I should have kept looking back, I guess. Seen the guy actually kill Randall. But I couldn't do it, ya know?"
He takes the number. "Thanks a lot, Jammer. I've still got a lot to learn about being awakened, but it's cool I can just come out here and find someone willing to help." |

"You seem like a pretty good guy, so far, Jammer."
Ollie enters the office, taking a look around.
"I spend most of my time over by Granite and Tanzanite parks. Since I, uh, awakened I've been trying to help take care of the neighborhoods, ya know? Some of the kids in the skate scene over there have it kind of rough, and can use a bit of good luck every now and again. Anyway, this kid Bobby asked me to track down his big brother Randall earlier today."
He pauses, takes a deep breath, and turns to Jammer.
"I found him by the railroad tracks. Dead. He was white as a sheet and his eyes had been pulled out. I looked back in time and saw the fucker that did it. I... I watched him eat Randall's eyes." Ollie shudders at the memory. "Kid was sixteen years old, he didn't deserve that.. I figured that I could get more help from other mages, if I could find them, than from the cops." |

He follows Jammer. "Yeah! There's the word. Means I'm not in any of the orders, right? Yeah." He pauses. "Is that bad?" |

Ollie relaxes a little when Jammer smiles, smiling himself and shaking his hand. "I'm called Ollie. I know all about Sacramento having issues, I guess, that's kind of why I'm here, but what exactly are you talking about?"
Noticing Jammer's glance, he asks "Is there a better place we can talk? You said this was supposed to be a safehouse." |

Ollie seems confused for a moment. Then it hits him what the man is talking about.
"Oh! Right... Yeah, I'm sorry I didn't know. I'm still kind of new, ya know? Actually I'm glad I found you. You are uh... that is to say..." he glances around, "...like me, right?" |

Ollie takes a deep breath and decides to try a different approach. Sitting on the bar stool he attempts to attune his senses to the threads of fate, but it isn't easy for him.
03-10 12:33:48 Ollie rolls 5 dice to Improv. Sybil's Sight Failure 3,6,7,4,7 03-10 12:34:31 Ollie rolls 4 dice to Improv. Sybil's Sight x2 Failure 7,4,1,1 03-10 12:35:06 Ollie rolls 3 dice to Improv. Sybil's Sight x3 Failure 1,6,7
He musters all his concentration into one more try.
03-10 12:35:42 Ollie rolls 5 dice to Improv. Sybil's Sight+WP (used WP) 2 successes 2,1,8,6,10, 6
Satisfied with his spell casting, he hops off the stool and moves onto the dance floor. Moving amongst the people, and bobbing to the music. |

Ollie leaves the change on the bartop, a tip. He turns on his chair, to regard the symbols. "I kinda like em."
He sits there for a while, watching the place fill up for the night. |

Ollie breaks into a grin, digging through his pockets and producing a crinkled 5-spot.
"Yeah, you're right. I've just had a serious kind of day, ya know? I'm just trying to make sense of it all."
He picks up his beer. "Hopefully this will help," he says, taking a drink.
Putting it down, he gestures to the symbols on the wall. "Somebody's idea of decoration?" |

Ollie sighs deeply, and looks around the room. He walks over to the bar and orders a beer. When the bartender returns, he asks him.
"About what time does this place usually get busy?" |

Ollie skirts around the dance floor, drawn to those symbols. He approaches one that feels more significant to him than the others. Staring at it. Reaching out a hand to touch it. |

Ollie spent the afternoon skating around town trying to find a place to get some help. After the sun has set he finds himself on Arden skating past The Rage. Remembering that he'd heard something about it, he decides to check it out.
He walks up to the door. If they'll let him he brings his skateboard with him inside. |

"Uhhhh.... Hell. That's not important, right? What's important is the dead body I'm calling in."
He hangs up the phone. He doesn't need to get caught up in the cops' investigation. He just couldn't leave Randall laying out there.
He skates away at full speed, thinking he might catch a bus and check out downtown Sacramento for information.
He tries to think of any places that the few mages he'd associated had talked about, or any places that seem like they'd appeal to them. |

Ollie snaps back to the present with a shudder, covered with sweat.
"My God... Randall..."
He takes a deep breath, going over what he was shown. It was unlike anything he'd ever seen. He casts a final look at Randall's body, before skating away. He needed to try and find out what it was that he saw, and that would mean finding someone who could help make sense of it.
At the first payphone he sees he stops and dials 911 to report Randall's dead body. |

Ollie shakes his head in frustration. He tries again, failing this time.
03-08 18:22:00 Ollie rolls 4 dice to Improv. Postognition Failure 1,5,7,4
He grits his teeth, looking around to see if anyone is around. He doesn't mind trying as many times as it takes, but he can't be found standing over a dead body even if he is trying to help.
((I can just sit here and keep trying, right?)) |
