The Chronicles of Harry Lacotte

[Harry Lacotte]

<Spot of 12>

[arcanus]

Norse Nods, wrapping several joints of smoked meet in linen, a man of few words as he deftly prepares the meat his eyes dart around until he fixes on something. He frowns and nods towards something behind Harry.

As he passes the linen packages across, Harry notices that there is a card tucked into the cloth.

[Harry Lacotte]

Giving the appearance that he is checking the wrapping of the meat he flips the card over to read it.

<Also does Harry know what stall or place Norse may be intimating without turning around? >

<Area Knowledge of 9>

[arcanus]

<None that your aware of>

<However the card belongs to Madame Viskanna, her tent is on the North side of the Market>

[Harry Lacotte]

Nodding his thanks to Norse, he passes the package over to Lance.

<Did it feel like Norse had placed a weapon in the package?>

<Spot of 21 : What was Norse pointing out with his eye gesture? I will attempt to look covertly around without giving myself away.>

Harry's strange claws extend, as he flexes his hands in preparation, also noting where Lance is located in relation to him.

[arcanus]

As Harry turned to hand Lance his food, he discreetly cast his gaze in the direction of Norse's warning, he spied several figures idling around stalls, each had a scarf covering their mouth and nose. 'Nothing too untoward with that' Harry thought, the smell and gasses in the Kingdoms were stomach turning at the best of times, but still he noted the circling of predators around their prey.

Lance stood just off to his right, taking in his surroundings, carefully unwrapping the top layer of wax paper he found not a weapon but a card, a Tarot card.

[Harry Lacotte]

Harry deftly whips the card from the package that Lance is holding.

<Sleight of Hand 12>

'Wait for my signal, then get low amongst the stalls and make your way through to the fortune teller. Hopefully I'll follow shortly'. He whispers into his hand..

'Blaady 'ell!' he suddenly roared, as he nudged Norse and pointed in a direction what he believes is behind most of his pursuers. 'Look at the tits on that!'

<Bluff of 9>
<Distraction of 9> for Lance's benefit.

<Spot of 14: How many of the people seem to register my reaction the quickest? Which would probably identify those who are actively watching us?>

<Dexterity of 15> Harry breaks into a dash in the opposite direction to Lance to close on the nearest known pursuer and attempts to land a kick between their legs.

<Brawl of 23>

<Are they carrying a weapon? Spot of 9>

[arcanus]

Lance gulps, fear has pallor'd his skin, as Harry surges bolt upright he hits the ground and scrambles beneath Norse's stall, where the big man gives him a helping foot propelling him under the tarpaulin and canvas of the stalls.

A large number of the gammas and sewer folk all turn to catch the aforementioned tits, one masked figure seems to spot exactly what is occuring and cuts right quickly, exploding through a stall Harry quickly comes across another scarf concealed figure who eyes widen as the monsters great boot pendulums toward him.

<Damage roll?>
<They show no signs of weaponry yet>

Harry's significant boot connected with the first assailants chest producing a satisfying thump, lifting the Gamma off his or her feet and sending them crashing into a stall on the other side of the market narrow.
