Welcome to Gaia! ::

The guard turned red at the cute girl's request, especially with her boyfriend standing just a few meters behind and, as usual, not looking very happy. He laughed nervously and finally answered, "Man this is highly irregular... but what the heck, okay! But you make sure to go with Michael, that thing tends to get aggressive!" He went through his pockets and finally slid the keycard through the opening at the bottom of the glass window. "Just make sure to bring it back to me at the end of your break, I still need to do my round down there tonight!"

Hiru was a bit worried about letting the others sneak in alone. He knew that Masanori's little antics would have created some form of a diversion for them, but still, he would have preffered doing additional reconnaissance before sending a team in a hostile facility. Hoping it would give them some cover, Hiru moved slightly away from Masanori and the guard's discussion while they finished up and discretely wove together a few hand signs.

Hijutsu: Kiri Gakure no Jutsu (Hidden Technique: Art of the Hidden Mist)
This displacement technique is a specialty of the Ninja from Kirigakure, where one causes a mist to spring forth by lifting up some water, then goes in and out of sight at will from within the pearly-white realm. The mist's thickness is controlled by the amount of chakra kneaded into it. It cannot fool the Byakugan, but, due to the mist being created with the user's chakra, any Sharingan-user will see the mist colored by their opponent's chakra, which will effectively hide the user from the dōjutsu.
Rank: C
Dice Rolls: 3
Cp cost: 20 + 10 per turn the jutsu is mantained.
Damage: n/a
Reflex DC: n/a
Awareness DC:
*User: 12 + [Stealth] + [Chakra mod] + 1 per 5 in [Ninjutsu]
*Others: 12 + [Stealth] + User's [Chakra mod]
Special: If victims fail awareness check versus a character, they do not know their whereabouts and cannot attack them directly. Even if the user knows the location of the people in the mist, his allies must roll awareness checks versus their opponent's stealth checks also unless they too use the Hidden Mist art. First attack launched against an enemy who does not know your location is considered a Sneak Attack.

Instantly, a thick mist started forming in the area and made distinguishing various forms within it very difficult. Hiru wished he could do more to help his squad but, for the moment, it was the best he could. He was confident these two would find their way in anyway.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Optional

Look around to find possible guards in the area that could spot you while you make a break for the door.

Awareness DC: 30

Naru's roll: d20 [11] + wis mod [07] + Awareness [10] = 28
Shikon's roll: d20 [3] + wis mod [10] + Awareness [10] = 23

Failed!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sneak into the building through its hidden side door. Watch out though, your attempt would gain from being delayed while you look for surveillance.

Sneak DC: 40 - Guard Distraction Bonus [10] - Ninjutsu Bonus [27] = 03

Reward: 80 EXP

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE: Various strategies may influence the DCs for this step.

Shikon noticed the mist and smirked. 'It seemed to going well on Leech's side.' He followed closely behind the girl as he grabbed the door and closed it quietly behind him. He stayed right behind Naru the whole time. If all else fails he could use her as a distraction and quickly knock out the guard, if one was to show, before a warning could get out. He watched her carefully. 'She probably isn't the most graceful but... I'll watch her back... though it will be difficult if she gets spotted... Oh well. Have faith and what not.' He held onto his katana and scabbard so it wouldn't make a sound as he was sneaking about, plus it'd be handy if he need a quick draw.

1d20[14]+ Dex mod. [10]+ Stealth [30]=54 DC: 3

Sneak DC: 40 - Distraction Bonus [10] - Ninjutsu Bonus [27] = 3

Naru: d20 [16] + dex mod [5] + Stealth [10] = 31
Fenrir: 1d20 [14]+ Dex mod [10]+ Stealth [30]=54

Success!

Reward for Group (4 members): 80 / 4 = 20 XP

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Hiru certainly was glad he had brough Masanori on this mission despite his superior's opinion. He was fairly certain there wasn't anyone else in the whole village who could have convinced a trained guard to let two enemy shinobis waltz through the front door and have him hand them the key to a secret facility... Now, all that was left to do was to find their way to the library to join up with the others. Luckily, Hiru already seen a gew of these and they tended to all have roughly the same basic design.



-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Front Door (Leech and Petal)

Part 1

Find your way to the library while navigating the facility. A rather straightforward task since it is its main room and the building really isn't all that big.

Survival DC: 15 (by either member of the squad)

Reward: 30 EXP


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Side Door (Angel and Dog)

Part 1

Find your way to the main library. Given the fact you are using emergency tunnels this task can prove relatively complex for someone who has no knowledge of the base's layout, but still remains relatively straightforward given the size of the building.

Survival DC: 20 (by either member of the squad)

Reward: 40 EXP


Optional

Pay special attention to the various doors you come across to see if you can notice anything suspicious or that could prove useful.

Awareness DC: 25

Reward: 50 EXP

Hiru realized he should have known better than to trail behind Masanori, who seemed to have sense of direction of a drunken squirrel today... He was actually lucky he didn't go through a door because who knows what they could have stumbled upon and what trouble they would have had to deal with. When Masanori turned to him, Hiru looked around for a few seconds and noticed that there was a main corridor that they had just left which appeared to have a lot more doors granting access to it than the narrow hall they were in right now. "I thought, you wanted to go the bathroom, as usual...", Hiru answered, remembering the two bickering during their patrol route and wanting to look the part. "Let's go back to the main corridor to head to the library.", he concluded, suggestively telling Masanori to follow him.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Survival DC: 15 (by either member of the squad)

Masanori : d20 [4] + wis mod [7] + Survival [3] = 14
Hiru: d20 [3] + wis mod [8] + Survival [10] = 21

Success!

Reward for Group (4 members): 30 / 4 = 8 XP

Well, that went quite smoothly. Naru made sure to keep still as Fenrir closed the door, only easing herself against the walls of the tunnels when he was done. Just to give herself a sense of security. When they were both ready she started to inch forward and racked her brain to see if they had gleaned any hints as to which general direction the library would be. They hadn't, but the place didn't look too big so Naru picked the one that led to the center of the facility and soldiered on towards that direction. She kept an eye on her surroundings just in case there were any markers or anything else that might be helpful.

After a while of walking, she realised that she was leading them in the wrong direction, or even in circles. It certainly wouldn't have taken that long to cover the area...

1d20 9 + wis mod 7 + Survival 0 = 16 DC: 20
2d20 9 + wis mod 7 + Awareness 10 = 26 DC: 25

Shikon tapped Naru's shoulder and whispered into her ear. "You should have made a left at that last intersection. It lead straight to the library, but hey kudos on finding this room." He smiled through his mask as he leaned closer against the door. "I'm gunna have a look. I won't be long." He put his foot against the door and held it in place as he pulled back on the handle and gave it a slow twist so the latches wouldn't scrape. He nodded to Naru and stepped through the door, slowly closing it behind him to erase the image that someone else was in there with them. He pressed himself against the wall, staying low, as he listened in on what they were saying.

1d20[18]+ Wis mod. [10]+ Survival [10]=38 DC: 20
1d20[15]+ Dex mod. [10]+ Stealth [30]=55 DC: 45

Finding your way

Find your way to the main library. Given the fact you are using emergency tunnels this task can prove relatively complex for someone who has no knowledge of the base's layout, but still remains relatively straightforward given the size of the building.

Survival DC: 20 (by either member of the squad)

Naru: d20 [09] + wis mod [07] + Survival [0] = 16
Fenrir: d20 [18] + wis mod [10] + Survival [10] = 38

Success!


Optional

Discretely open the door and try to sneak in to listen in on their conversation. A very risky maneuver given the fact that the room is very small and that being spotted by the scientist could prove very problematic.

Stealth DC: 45

Fenrir : d20 [15] + Dex mod [10] + Stealth [30] = 55

Success!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Inside the room, the two scientists are discussing fairly intensely about one of their colleagues. "What do you mean he went to sleep?! We were supposed to finish up on our specimen tonight! Pretty much all that was left was packaging!", says the man, visibly annoyed. "I told him to go to bed! he's been cooped up in that lab for days and has barely had any rest.", answered the woman.

The man was visibly furious, "And what if I want to work tonight? How would I do that when he's the only one who has the key?!", he added with cynicism. "Well not much we you can do about it now, he's in his room and it's code locked!", she said with a hint of condescension, as though she had just pinned him into a conversational corner. "Oh please, that idiot choose 1-2-3-4 as his code, EVERYONE in the facility knows it! I could walk in that room next door right now and wake his lazy butt up so he can come to work like we agreed to!", he answered. "Stanley, I didn't want it to come to this, but if you set one foot inside that room I will tell Melissa and you know what's going to happen!", she said menacingly. The male scientist stood silent and angry for two seconds, glaring at his co-worker before adding, "FINE. It seems I'll regret having introduced you to my wife until the day I get fired, which may come sooner than later if we spend our days in our rooms instead of at the labs!".

With that, they storm off through the back door.

Next door, past the combination lock lies a scientist, still wearing his labcoat, practically passed out on his bedsheets. He is clearly in deep sleep judging by the intense snoring and complete lack of movement. From his pocket, on the side of his labcoat opposite to the door, a keycard is partially visible.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Choice 1

Swipe the keycard discretely from his pocket without him realizing it. Has the upside of making sure no one will realize anything happened before or after you leave but has increased chances of being detected (increased EXP at the end of mission).

Sleight of hand DC: 25

Reward: 50 XP


Choice 2

Kill the scientist in his sleep and take the keycard from his corpse. No danger of him waking up if you pull that off but everyone will certainly know that there was an intrusion.

Sneak Attack DC: 15

Reward: 30 XP

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTES: Various strategies may influence the DCs and experience gained from succeeding this step, be creative. Hiru and Masanori are currently waiting for you in front of the library and can still be contacted through radio, you can contact them to ask for support.
