"Well guys no clear sign of an ambush, but I could of missed something. Oh I could get my Fire Elemental to burn the tree but I have no idea on how to put the thing out, so unless someone can figure out a way to put the fire out that plan is shot." Micro says to the group after he returns to his body.
"I hope we don't have to walk the rest of the way, If we have to I'm scouting ahead astraly before we leave." Micro says as he trys to figure out some way to put out the fire if he does light the Tree on fire, Can't have a forest fire that would be bad expecally with the press sitting fight beside him.

Forest arson is generally a 20year stretch, in a meta pound. The Cascades do turn a blind eye to a lot of what Seattle calls criminal activity, as it tends to bolster the local economy. But stuff that is on the doorstep, gets hammered.
Depends on how close you want to get - the track goes on for another 4 mile ish then past Silver's House - the place where the Wendingo was origionally killed, well removed from its current body.
Thunder could get round the trree with x4 successful drive roll (and gain a manouvering tick!)
But sounds like Four-Eyes is about to enter necociations.. anyone want to help?
(OOc if you are going to do useful stuff - and gather in those ticks, then you HAVE to get your good ideas/info posted. If you have done similar before, you dont get an immediate tick, but it is all tucked away and taken into account... More useful info gives me things to think about too - so if there is a good way through a difficult sitch, then I will take your advice!.. you discuss and generate more ways to solve stuff...
hey folks I'm just adjudicating things an putting them into action, YOU are running it - the more info, or more instructions the better - I dont want to suddenly spring on you that noone ever had said they were carrying guns which I think is standard.. but think about the strange stuff in your hands..
And as a reminder most characters have a Karma pool which they can dip into to in order to reroll - or burn to make an immediate success with a roll Karma=Lucky=Professsionalism ... Micro, I owe you 1 karma pool, as you rerolled, rather than burning your throat wound as a success.. you rub your neck with a satisfied slime oooh smile, well there are satisfied slimes around...)

Chuck get off his bike. Grabs his axe and heads over to the others.Take about 40 mins to gut through I think. Less with some help. Could clear a path around in 10 or less for the RV. Still be some fancy driving. Listen Boss if we are going to do it lets just do it. Not much for sneaking around.
We'll do it when I say and not before! Unless you given me a challenge there BOY. When I say jump you say how high. Got it? The Troll leader says.Besides this could be more fun for now . I'm looking forward to see how they going to move that log. 50 cred on them blowing it up. Any takers ?
The other Trolls hoot and howler at this and an little bidding war erupts until the one maned Four Eyes steps out.

As F-E steps out, Peaches follows him, shotgun held at the ready and cigar still clamped between his teeth. "I hope you know what yer doin', boss," he mutters, taking up an overwatch position as the human goes to talk with the gangers.

Quick will follow Peaches lead and also heads to the door of the RV and and just stands on the outside seeming to stretch his legs while being ready to back up Four-Eyes and Peaches.

Micro stays in the RV as it drives through the trees wondering why everyone got out. "I guess if the gangers try anyhing I'll look out the back window to Geek them." Micro thinks as the RV is moving between the trees at a slow pace. Micro is looking out the side windows and the back windowing knowing Thunder can see what is ahead of him no point in backseat driving better to look at the gangers and keep and eye out encase anything apears out of the woods to try and eat the group.

The ground beneath the forest cover is great for dirtbiking - lots of steep slopes and mainly smooth and slippery due to the carpet of needles, Thunder scrunches through the smaller bush and scrub at the edge of the track and beneath the huge pinetrees manouverng slowly using both sets of engines independantly gets you around the treeroots and back onto the track. The tree has been uprooted not cut - only shallow roots but it is a big tree - a big earth elemental could do that....
You are able to join him on the other side, the bikers follow, impressed by Thunder driving a brick with such finesse a couple of them skid on the needles (have a drive tick!)
You have around a mile to go - sound will travel once you are a lot closer as the trees will dull out most of it - but the lights will give you away.. so it is either drop your speed and use dim lights - or pile in quickly Thunder can navigate using his sensors but the trolls could get left behind.. or they could keep up with full beam, you got the impression before that they wernt going to be shaken off or dissuaded easily. how do you want to play it folks?

"Nice driving Thunder. I think I'm going to take a quick peak ahead to see what is coming, Oh If blood starts poring out of my noes I will be needing some help." Micro says as he decides to go astral again alittle worried that an Earth Elemental will pick a fight with him astrally but at least Micro can run away.
Micro sits back and starts his astral mediation then pops out of his bod and flies down the road to there destination looking for obstacles and any humaniods or paranormal animals that stand out. Micro will not enter any builds at this time encase something goes horablie wrong (which might happen any way)

Micro realises why everyone got out as the RV lurtches from side to side, with a scramble for his seatbelt, and holding his neck to avoid whiplash.. bit like an off road rally - but when youre on a bike you can measure out and contrlo what youre doing - In the back of the RV was being like an egg in a football..
Thermo is fine for spotting heat objects, you want lowlight - gives you a green and grey view of the world, like a starlight scope. Orcs are fine under the stars, in the forest however the tree cover blacks out all light. Mages could use astral - the trees glow with life, but it is hard to control anything if you want to perform more than simple tasks (you get the +2 on skill checks for maintaining astral.)
Thunder informs you that Micro has scouted on ahead.. a mile down the road, the wooden house and outbuildings that Four-Eyes mentioned, you can tell it is the one as it has police tape around it, and a large earth elemental in the ground making fast circuits of the area, zigzagging into the treeline then into the yard and back and forth - covers a circuit in bout half a minute going at 60+mph. No way you could physically observe from the trees. You spend a short time hiding high up. If there were any mines they would have been buried in the ploughed earth. Reminds you of a dirttrack racing circuit, a big wide oval surrounding the property. From your high vantage point you can see the lights of your cavalcade in the distance.
OOh theres interesting.. an earth elemental heading down the side of the road in the softer ground towards the house - a scout reporting back? not huge, but big - like the original ones you dispensed with so easily. Do you wish to intercept it? you could intercept 300 metres from the house area a about ten rounds travel for it - spells will work as it is dual natured, or you could punch it (you can use your sorcery knowledge of the thing's planar nature to hit it) it is in cover. Or get back and report/ gather some help.

How do you want us to play this? we all dive in together, or have one team hit the elementals giving another team cover to get to the wendigo? The trolls will probably want to go in on the elementals and show how tough they are. To be honest I am probably more useful in astral than on the ground. If anyone else is thinking about going astral - we could work together, but we would need to sit it out somewhere, up a tree or stay in the RV?
