The Incarnadine Road Session 3

     The PC's break away from the caravan to hunt down the magic item promised to them by Uly; which takes them to an out of the way little post office outside of Riley.   Unfortunately for them the other party coming to claim the item is a giant bounty hunting vampire by the name of Bojangles.  Enraged that the po box is empty combat quickly ensues, with many being 1 hit KO'd by Bojangles monstrous silver spiked boots.  It takes a frenzied Ramone to finally bring him down.  
     Once the team arrives in John Day Oregon and meets back up with the caravan it is learned that Penny (the recently embraced caitiff) has been abducted.  Security camera footage shows her talking with 2 unknown men, and then leaving with them a little over 60 minutes before the PC's arrive.  Corvus makes it his mission to find her before dawn; which would be a mere 90 minutes away.  The group splits up with several of the Caravan's NPC's to cover more ground.  

Wylde and Corvus Head to the Church of the Nazarene 

  • The two go into the lion's den in search of Penny, relying heavily on Wylde's social charisma.  
  • Massive amounts of public support for the DOVE teams are observed, as well as copious amounts of extremely lethal weaponry. 
  • Penny is found to be held within a lower room.
    • Extremely sorrowful for her actions, she explains that she was promised a cure and was tricked. 
  • Darren and Corvus murder the two guards outside the cell and make a mad dash for the exit.  
  • Guns blazing and with the element of surprise fading fast, the three manage to make it to the car and escape before they are all downed glorious burny golden pain light damage.  
Has Father Vestrie really become a member of the infamous LF?

Ramon, Cammy and Redbrook Head to the Logging Yard

  • Investigation into the offices of the Logging company turns spooky, as evidence of a recent break in and blood is discovered.

  • Several employees are found torn to pieces, leading to the conclusion that Werewolves are responsible (Woolaloofes?) .  
  • Their attack is swift and vicious, and despite Ramon's strength their force is overwhelming.  
  • It would seem that they blame the caravan for their missing boy, last seen abducted by man on a motorcycle matching Ramon's description.  
  • Negotiations seem futile, so a quick retreat is orchestrated (thank GM that Cammy was there to lend her considerable driving skill)...a deluge of angry ghoulatized rats may have also helped.  
Who could have kidnapped the boy if it wasn't Ramon, and for what purpose? 

Nero and Brixton Head to the North End Neighborhoods

  • Dove teams are seen patrolling the area.

  • Brixton, the loner that he is quickly shapeshifts to a wolf and goes off to scout the area leaving Nero to fend for himself.  
  • With Brixton running distraction Nero is able to break into a nearby house without detection.  From this vantage point he is able to see that the DOVE teams in the area are investigating something specific behind one of the houses. 
  • Nero blunders, revealing himself to the DOVE inspectors as he attempts to gain a better vantage point.  
  • Nero makes a run for it (if you can call that running).  Brixton takes some serious damage in an almost failed attempt to save his comrade.
What were all of those strange dead bodies?  And what was the significance of the carvings on their heads?

  1. Session 3:
    I knew a man, Bojangles, and he'd dance for you in worn out shoes, with silver hair, a ragged shirt, and baggy pants. He would do the old soft shoe. He could jump so high, jump so high, and then he'd lightly touch down. ...Really though, about half the night is all a blur. I feel like there's a lesson to be learned about not biting off more than you can chew. That Mexican biker guy should really be paying more attention. Later on we met up with the caravan, and it seems like Princess was missing. Oooohhh, what a god damn pity. Still though, a child may have a handful of G.I.JOE Crimson Guard action figures, but losing a Cobra Trooper is still a bit depressing. I get sent to a residential part of town with Wolf O'Donnell. After getting out of the car, Wolf turns into a puppy and scampers away to play with the other mutts on the block, leaving all the work to me. Searching around, I found a D.O.V.E. team, but was able to slip away, solely due to my superior stealth skills. Finding a pile of bodies, with a D.O.V.E. unit investigating, I sneak in for a closer look, and decide to get noticed. Why should I get to have all the fun, when that miserable cur is still sniffing around? After a very brief and very polite exchange, the D.O.V.E. team opens fire, and I trot over to a vehicle that Wolfy had ready to go. Even though the rotten dog was injured, I made sure he got to safety. Aren't I such a great guy?

  2. I had a giant black dude with silver toed boots named Bojangles try and dance a jig on the PC's. You can't say I don't have a sense of humor.
