OOC questions

Big hand and big leg? lol.

Big feet, yep

Great work on the fight guys.

What's the availability of demolition level explosives?
Just in case we need to bury the fiend under concrete.

Basic commercial level explosives are 8R, which means you need a license to get them, but they are relatively cheap at only 100 nuyen per kg. It does require the demolitions active skill to do effectively though. I am not sure off hand how many kg it would take to bring down everything around him, but I can figure it out if you guys have a way to get it..

It's a thought, but we would have to get it someplace besides the sewer, or municipal workers are just going to dig it right back up.

In the very least, even without the wood you have the ofuda as well as details on how to make an effective prison for it.

Exactly. This can be done. I had Sato sum up IC.

A trap would be nice...levers and whizzbangs and gizmos...

What's the team think? Should we, after meeting up and reporting to each other, we take the peaches we got to the temple as offering for the kami? If nothing else, just to make up for the drama we caused. Seeing the fight we're up against, it's better to have friends than resentment.

I think that's an in character conversation to have. But, seems like a fine plan to me if Sun (or kingfisher) wants to try to apologize to the temple. We shouldn't need to cut wood from their tree though, since you were successful.

Not to be overly mercenary, but I factually have zero money at this point.  Seems to me like someone would be willing to buy some peaches...

Hope you didn't drop your return ticket

No doubt.

Haha. I'm equally okay with trying to hock the peaches. But I still maintain this should be an in character conversation.

I take it that by the time we get back the two timelines are synched back up in Jumping to Conclusions?

Yeap. You are at the same time there, conference calling from wherever. I realize you probably wouldn't call Sato, so assuming he is eavesdropping over someone's shoulder until someone near him introduces him and patches him into the call

Will Armorer skill allow me too make melee weapons as well as guns and armor?

Yep

Roughly how much wood do we have? 2 melee weapons worth plus 4 or so ammo samples. Or more like tip three melee weapons plus ammo.

You have the small sticks that might work on a crossbow or something. The wood you just cut is enough for 2 sturdy stakes with some castoffs for bullets. How many depends on your roll

How many kgs weight can a spirit lift?
Just working out how much explosives could be made into a suicide vest and carried by a spirit.
Put a three second timer on it. Get the spirit to trigger the vest and return to the Astral. It's gotta make a big boom and Bury the thing under debris.

PRO TIP: Don't use a fire spirit for that!

Looks like 15 kgs per strength point so probably a max of 30 kgs. 20kgs of demolition explosives should make for a healthy bang.

LIFTING/CARRYING (BOD + STR) The baseline for lifting weight is 15 kilograms per point of Strength. Anything more than that requires a Strength + Body Test. Each hit increases the max weight lifted by 15 kilograms. Lifting weight above your head, as with a clean & jerk, is more dif cult. The baseline for lifting weight above the head is 5 kilograms per point Strength. Each hit on the Lifting Test increases the max- imum weight you can lift by 5 kilograms. Carrying weight is signi cantly different than lifting weight. Characters can carry Strength x 10 kilograms in gear without effort. Additional weight requires a Lifting Test. Each hit increases the maximum by 10 kilograms. For more details on carrying gear, see Carrying Gear, p. 420.

Crikey so 10 times strength to carry.
Or 20 kgs exactly then.
Hmm now to get a short fuse trigger to make it go boom.

If we wanted to go that route, the answer is more than enough. That force 5 Earth elemental I summoned has a STR of 9 when materialized.

However, if it's in the sewers it would just get dug up by municipal workers when they made repairs.
