WHO || Lis'sa Trinall, Zero, Andrew Gatewood, Jordan Reeves, Emma Swan, Faye Chamberlain, Lila Zacharov, Aurelius Greyfire, Mars Dacey, Kate Bishop
WHAT || A team of Knights is tasked to take control of the Communications tower on the island.
WHERE || Andres Isle
WHEN || September 19th, 2014
HOW || Actionspam

[  The communications tower team is two-fold, but they'll be traveling together to the Isle via a greater teleport scroll as well.  The larger group arrives at the outskirts of the wood, and it's easy enough to spot the giant tower, not far off down the road.  Night is falling, and they're shaded from the empty road at the moment by the tree line they're close to.   Lis'sa looks irritated by the method of travel, checking over her supplies before confirming for them that they've landed on target.  Zero hoists his laptop case onto his shoulder, as Aurelius pats himself down, obviously afraid of missing body parts from the jaunt. ]

[ Jordan doesn't seem at all phased by their method of transport, instead looking around curiously, one hand on the sword hanging from his hip. He doesn't hear Lila 's murmured spell (listen 10), but as she casts it he looks back at her, a faint smile ghosting his lips. He closes his eyes a moment, seeming to concentrate hard on something before snapping his head up and to the west, exhaling a deep breath before moving towards the rest of the team. His eyes glow a faint sapphire blue in the darkness as he speaks in a hushed voice. ]

Are we in the right spot?

[charismapotion]

[ Mars had not like the idea of bring Venus along on such a dangerous event but at the moment he wished he had jsut to have something to squeeze after that. He didnt ever want to travel like that again.

Checking for his new phone, and the few items he brought. He looked over to Faye and Emma, then to Zero before waiting to see what they will do from here.]

[badexample]

[Andrew adjusts his bag of tricks electronics and glances at Zero, trying not to focus on the fact that his boss is right the fuck there. Okay. War. Right...]

I sure as fuck hope we are. [But the tower isn't hard to spot, so he gestures towards it.] Think that's it, yeah?

[alsohawkeye]

Seems like it. [ Kate is used to teleporting, though in a different fashion. She takes it well all the same, shaking out limbs and checking over her weapons: the bow across her back, guns at hip and ankle, knives here and there. She's skipped the stocking cap but gone for the all-black apparel, and tugs at her collar and jerks her head in a nod. ] Shall we?

[uncurse]

The sooner we get in position, the better.

[ Emma draws the gun from her holster, leaving her sword in its sheath in favor of the familiar firearm. She wraps both hands around the stock and begins to advance on the tower, shoulders hunched and eyes peeled. ]

[spellfile]

Pretty sure the giant tower was a clue. [ re: are we in the right place. said to no one in particular now since people are already moving that way, but WHATEVER, IT'S THE PRINCIPLE OF THE THING. lis'sa rolls her eyes, and sweeps past him imperiously. #peasants

spot checks as they approach the tower, plz ]

[bittersweeter]

Don't get your panties in a bunch, Dedushka. [ such fondness in her tone as she waits for everyone to pass her so she can bring up the rear, gun held loosely in her hand with a casual ease as they walk. she keeps her eyes peeled, if not occasionally flashing over at faye. her handy dandy human flashlight best friend. (spot 20 total) she can clearly multitask. ]

[uncurse]

[ spot 25! no snarky commentary here. ]

[alsohawkeye]

[ Kate glances at Zero but busies herself readying her bow as she moves after Emma, checking the screws and the string, drawing an arrow to keep nocked as they go, even if she moves with the weapon lowered. She's on alert, but preparations require some part of her attention for the moment (spot 16). ]

[charismapotion]

[ Mars glances at Zero but shakes his head and plans to follow at Emma's lead.]

[reallywicked]

[Faye is keeping a closer eye on her people than her surroundings which is probably counter productive but her priorities are a little skewed rn. (spot 8 whoops).]

[badexample]

[Andrew, on the other hand got a nat 20 spot check because he is paranoid as fuck and has his eyes SO WIDE, constantly glancing around for signs of danger.]

[wishuponadjinn]

[ (spot: 23)Jordan walks quiet as a mouse towards the tower (move silently:19 ) as he pulls his sword from it's sheath with a soft shhh-ing sound. ]

[lissatrinall]

[ lis'sa crit failed her spot, and practically walks into a tree. and zero crit fails and walks into her from behind while he's turning around to make a potentially snarky comment to lila. it's a train of success. aren't you glad these people are vital to this mission.

as the fence that surrounds the communications station comes into view, lila and jordan would both notice that it's about ten feet high and topped with barbed wire. emma notes a security camera on the building inside the fence, sweeping across the interior courtyard, and also sees the two guards slowly making rounds within said courtyard. andrew notices that there's a tiny guardhouse by the gate entrance to the station, through the trees, and that there's a guard inside with his feet up, reading a magazine.

lis'sa casts a glare back at zero like THIS IS UR FAULT. with her 19 intimidate check, he raises one hand and shrinks backwards into the group, cutting andrew a look like DON'T WAKE MEDUSA OVER THERE. ]

[badexample]

[Squinting at the guard house, Andrew manages to look back just in time to see that whole... mess. He gulps but knows that he needs to share his information with someone. And Lis'sa and Emma are running these teams right? He thinks?? So he tries to get their attention.]

Looks like we'll need to get past him.

[uncurse]

Doesn't get much better beyond that.

[ With Andrew pointing it out, she can see the guardhouse. Raising her hand up, she points to the security cameras. ]

They've got eyes on the walls, and some more guards inside.

[bittersweeter]

I can take care of the one in the guardhouse. [ because, you know, she is hella great at that invisibility spell of hers. ] As long as someone else can take care of the barbed wire.

[spellfile]

I can take care of those security cameras from back here, for about fifteen minutes. Other than that, I figure our team'll hang back until you've got a path cleared. [ lis'sa cuts him a look like WHO IS TEAM LEADER HERE but he ignores it dutifully. ] 'Less the Djinn has something to contribute to Swan's team.

[wishuponadjinn]

[ geez, way to call him out in front of everyone zero. Jordan clears his throat, scratching the back of his head as he speaks, the silver bands on his wrists reflecting what little light there'd is dully. ] Uh, yeah I think I probably have something up my sleeve, but it's kinda big so um... it'll have to wait for the right moment.

[charismapotion]

[ Mars looks over at the wires then back to Lila]

I can help with hiding us too. [ Obscuring Mist, yo.]

[badexample]

[Andrew gives Zero a little salute, which is basically to say 'lemme know if you need any assistance.' But he knows that Zero's got the magic stuff going on too. He's also very pleased with the idea of waiting for a clear path. Yes, good. He doesn't really want to head in until all the baddies are gone.]

[bittersweeter]

Yeah, still having problems with the fence. [ she glances down like, hi, wearing a skirt. she will climb over the fence no problem, the girl is basically a cat, she will climb anything. but the barbed wire is giving her pause. she lived in a cage for three years, barbed wire is not her friend. ] Anyone bring bolt cutters? [ SHE ONLY BROUGHT HER GRAPPLING HOOK SHE IS A FAILURE. ] Or corrosive acid? [ so hopeful. ]

[reallywicked]

Actually, yeah. Acid. I've got a spell for that. But I have to be pretty close.

[alsohawkeye]

[ Kate fans out a little, enough to get a clear view of the guards inside that Emma's pointed out. She's eyeballing the distance. Yeah, no. ]

I can take the two in the courtyard down quietly but I need to be closer.

[ The mention of the fence has her looking again, and she notices for the first time that Lila is wearing a skirt and just stares at her for a long moment. Then to Faye and her acid. ] How quickly does it work?

[reallywicked]

[Faye notices Kate staring at her bestie and just shoots her back a look like 'excuse you'.]

Instantly. Just have to make the shot
