Right, if we're going to be facing down a crazy cult, than there's no reason to hold back.

*Lifts painting revealing keypad. Types code into keypad. A portion of the wall recedes, revealing an oddly shaped safe. Opens safe with a key he had hidden in the hilt of his sword. And finally pulls a long staff with strange runes carved into it out of the safe.*

Just in case we need to make an impression.

*Strings staff on back and closes the redundantly complex safe system.*

Moody follows him back up, glancing back to the armory for a second, before leaving.
"Geeze, sounds like you're in love with that gun. Course I can't say much, I was almost making out with that shotgun the other day."

[jacky2734]

((And yes, the staff is a pretty nasty Chekhov Cannon.))

[Guest]

Scyto what kind of weapons does War use? I want to try and bring her back alive. Knowing how to approach her will help......Having you guys shot at while I talk to her doesn't really appeal to me.

[Katarn]

((I'm planning to stay awake for at least 4 more hours...Friday!))

[Guest]

*laughs*
This rifle just brings back some good memories that's all.
*walks up to the group*
Kage, How did you manage to get your claws on one of these*points to rifle on his back* I haven't seen one in years.

[MrMagma]

((At best I have about an hour to 90 minutes in me. I feel like I'm going to die [metaphorically of course]))

[jacky2734]

((Question: Can I get some details on Scyto's cult? I'd like to know what they're about.))

[jacky2734]

*Adjusts mysterious staff so it's more comfortable*

It was in the Trottingham SR Armory. It looked effective, so I grabbed it.

[Guest]

Kage what's the deal with the staff?

[Guest]

*Grins*
You have no idea, I just need to grab a couple of things then I'll be good to go.
*gives Mav a spotter scope*
I found one these since your spottin' for me.
*walks into his room*

[Scyto Harmony]

(( Alright, so; the Cult of the Blood Queen worships a mare who claims to have been around since before the war, somehow jumping from host to host just before death. Thinking her salvation of the wasteland, a cult was formed. In the past couple years, however, something snapped in her, and she ordered the cult to do terrible things, before abandoning them. Left to their own devices, that didn't know what to do other then devote their existence to finding her again. Scyto, the former (and technically still) head prophet decided that it was a loss, and left, leaving the four ponies of the apocalypse in charge; Death, War, Famine and Pestilence.

Operating in the Freidrichshorfen Mountains, they are currently competing with the P.A.Z.I for ultimate control of the area, drafting in new members every day. They've gone from rather harmless cult to murderous ritualists ))\

Thanks, Mav. *Slips on a maroon robe ontop, and pulls up a hood that nearly masks his face* There.

[Katarn]

Oh, thanks. I was about to start looking by myself for this.

[jacky2734]

Insurance.

Let's just say, it will give the cultists a reason to think long and hard about their choice of religion.

[MrMagma]

Am I the only one that suddenly doesn't like where this is going? Are we planning on killing them all, or are we planning on getting War out of there?

[Katarn]

*looks through spotting scope* bit of this, bit of that.

[jacky2734]

((Who are the P.A.Z.I?))

[Scyto Harmony]

*clears throat* Killing them all? I don't think so, not while I'm alive. Hell, half of them are just foals.

[MrMagma]

*Laughs* Just like old times.

[jacky2734]

Hey, I'm only using it if we have to make a mad dash out of there... or if they really piss me off.

[Scyto Harmony]

(( Group of Militants in Fried who base their ideals off of long dead Pre-War ideals. Ponies Against the Zebra Influences. Think of them as a WAY less nasty Nazi... ))

[Guest]

*walks out his room with his rifle and pistol holstered on the riot armor as well as the helmet clipped to the side*
either one is fine with me really, I just need vantage point.
*looks at Crys*
Sis, I'm gonna need ya' to be the doc on this one. Think yer up for it?

[Guest]

So Scyto, if they accept you as their leader are you coming back?

[Scyto Harmony]

What do you mean? With you guys?

You guys are my family now, I can't just leave you.

But... shit... *sighs* Great, now I'm torn...

[Katarn]

*sigh* Despite how I want it to end peacefully. And I really am. do you belive War will go with us just like that, that her followers will simply let us get her? My optimistic plan - as little casualties as possible...but I'm afraid it's end up ugly.
By the way. Plan. We do have one? i know, that I already asked. But maybe we made up some strategy? I'm tired of makeshift plans.

[jacky2734]

((So control of the region is between a murderous cult, or a group of diet Nazis... Can't we kill them both?))

[Aonee]

Really? Half of them are foals? What the hell were you DOING in your cult? And I thought you said you didn't have anything besides your hoodie. Which I haven't seen in awhile, what happened to that?
Sure, I'll try to keep em all alive. Guess I should start reading the rest of that book you gave me. *Goes off to read the book*

[MrMagma]

*Puts hoof on Scyto's shoulder* Just do what you think is right. It's your choice in the end. Not ours. Not theirs.

[Moodyman90]

Moody pipes up with a suggestion.
"I don't remember seeing any while going through it the other day, but is there any non-lethal ammo? In the very least beanbags for the shoguns?"

[Scyto Harmony]

My hoodie? *He prods the robes* This IS my hoodie. *His horn glows for a moment, and there again is the ragged green and white hoode, over his armor that mav gave him*

(( We honestly could. I was saving the whole thing for my fic, but... I've entirely given up on it - Might as well use the concept somewhere! Although Scyto wouldn't appreciate the destruction of his cult, probably ))
