Actual play report for He’s Just Sleeping

Gang members

Nox – The man with the plan and good charade skills.

Callum – The brute with a heart of gold.

Walter – The dirty pervert.

Dash – The druggie.

The Score

Their old gang has fell apart because their boss was killed without paying his “staff”. Being a bit of a drunk and extremely paranoid they had no idea of where his stash was.

Luckily for the gang the Spirit Wardens are on a bit of a backlog so the gang had time to sneak in and force some life into him long enough for him to tell them where the stash is.

The plan

Walter the slide will dress up as a bluecoat, Sgt Buckley, and then open up a window from the cellar. Once inside they’ll find the body and use a spirit mask hopefully still on the boss’ body to get the info you want.

The game

Everything went super well until the gang got to the morgue. At that point the idea was to talk the Warden into letting them see the body and if that failed plan B was to use slumber essence… obviously they ended up using plan B. Dash ended up wrestling the warden to the ground and ended up whiffing too much essence making him a bit loopy for most of the rest of the score. He also ended up with some inners on him. With the warden talki of illness in Doskvol Dash doesn’t know if he’s infected.

Callum then showed his true colours. With time to the next corpse pick up soon. He risked everything by himself and carried the corpse out while the others tried to locate the spirit mask.

Dash and Nox ran off to the evidence room where belongings are stored before being auctioned off.

Walter stayed back to put another body in the Boss’ casket. With a stroke of luck the other wardens had lost their protective gear and didn’t want to enter the morgue. Walter now dressed like a Spirit Warden hid the naked Warden and answered the door with a body. The wardens didn’t know that he had skipped a body in the hopes of being paid by a rich family to let the corpses spirit go free. He then wandered out to find a badly wounded warden on the floor. This warden had met Callum trying to escape. Walter tried to help. But only after getting a slap from nearly copping a feel. Seems this warden was a lady and had a large wound under her robe. With Anita the warden given first aid Walter simply walked out and was escorted to hospital only to disperse later.

While this was going on Dash managed to get past a lightning gate and Nox played charades as far as Dash was concerned who was quite loopy still. He found the mask and thought why not knick some other stuff. They then ran for their lives now that the Wardens were on high alert.

Round up

Great session by PbP. Characters are starting to click together nicely. There’s plenty more trouble for the new unnamed gang to get up too.

Quote of the game

OOC: “I wasn’t aware that we discussed xp like rational beings after the job is done, that’s good though”

IIC: ““Give me a few minutes, fellas. Nature calls.” He held his stomach, and let out a subtle groan.”
