Fandom Vampire: The Masquerade: Chapter 3: Setting Aside Grievances

Investigate the area the vans were parked in. Perhaps we can find something of note.

We got interrupted by a bunch of rip off werewolves. Never hurts to double check.

And if that's futile, then let's go to the pawnshop.

It is. They got there AFTER the search. Welp, pawnshop time.

Also, they're not werewolves. They're Gangrels -- a clan of Kindred that's close to nature. You haven't seen a werewolf, boy. They're 4 meters fucking tall.

I know. I was mocking them because they were assholes to us, and were completely unsympathetic towards our plight.

Suuure. Because there's enemies in the boxes. He asked how he can help then Gabriel decided to go all cloudcuckoolander on the guy. Actions have consequences, in this quest in particular.

Just to make sure all of you know that...

No, because we are clearly paranoid and extremely delusional. I mean, we dress up like a ninja and moan in pleasure when we get hurt, for christs sake! Have a little sympathy!

You proceed toward the local pawn shop. It's your best shot at this point. You've got nothing besides the fact that the robbers were professional and had access to (probably) homemade chemicals that they used to make the bombs.

You change your clothes in an alleyway near the pawn shop itself, then enter through the front door.

An old man, clearly a mortal, is operating the desk before you. He has a thin, rough, somewhat Italian accent, "Welcome to Pete & Zoey's Pawn Shop. Anything ya like, sir?"

The inventory was interesting. Several antique items, including shotguns, watches, even machines that belong in a casino. Most of them were old, you can clearly tell the machine is from the 70's without examining it too much. There's several other doohickeys every then and there.
  1. Ask questions.
    1. "Do you know anything about men in black trenchcoats? Seen any black trucks?"
    2. "Do you sell anything... Oh, I don't know... that has ammonia in it? Any idea where I could find any?"
    3. Write-in.
  2. Buy something.
    1. Write-in. (Make sure it makes sense. I'm certain the guy doesn't sell apple seeds.)
  3. Write-in.

The best part about our derangement is that it has fewer detriments and more pluses. Ninja Sense is sweet, and since the Malkavian derangements are supernatural, we get some free ninja skills. The only real expense is that we have to act like a weeaboo with our suit on, and that we like to receive pain.

Ah, but masochism's rather useful in multiple areas. If we were to end up losing an arm, we'd still be able to think rather clearly, compared to some other folks. Same can be said of torture. Since pain isn't really a threat, torture's useless when trying to extract information from us. Hell, we'd end up giving our torturer pointers.

We will casually ask both questions, then ask him if he's heard any odd noises in the last few nights, explosions, gunfire. That sort of thing.

After we question him, we will also buy a japanese to english dictionary, a katana that isn't a wallhanger(like our current one), and any ninja stars he happens to have.

If he has any anime or manga, we also get that too. But we don't get our hopes up that he does. By the looks of the merchandise in here, the most recent anime this guy'd have in stock would be the original Astro-Boy.

EDIT: While we're shopping, we also grab a grappling hook. Or at the very least, a bit of rope. We can always improvise if there isn't an actual grappling hook.

1-1. Afterward, we'll ask the other question and look into buying some ninja-supplies. Maybe they'll have a grappling hook?

"Do you know anything about men in black trenchcoats? Seen any black trucks?" You move your fingers around as you speak, to give off the impression that you're affable, while you're really not. You also give him a brief smile to induce subconscious like toward you, but it seems you're just inept at socializing.

"A kind of specific question to ask... Well, now that I think about it. A whole load of them drove by this evening. A few hours ago. Before the robbery. Wait... do they have anything to do with...?" he goes into the direction you don't want him to go into. "No, no. They're unrelated, though, on another note... do you sell anything... Oh, I don't know... that has ammonia in it? Any idea where I could find any?"

"Nope. There's not a chemical store nearby either," he says.

Damn it. You seem to have gotten nowhere with this investigation. This is really troubling. Even though you investigated in every possible place and searched every, little spot... you've got nothing. Completely nothing. The case just seems... hopeless. No matter what you do, you can't get a lead.

"Where did the trucks come from again?"

"Uh, from like... Thatcher Avenue? Yeah, that general direction... Look, here, sir. I'm gonna have to ask you to buy somethin' or go away, alright?"

"Okay, do you have anything related to Japan?"

"I got an antique katana from the Edo period," he turns around and grabs said item before presenting it to you. The scabbard is beautiful and adorned with the drawing of an Asian dragon in gold, although by itself it was black. It also had some minor copper decorations at the edges in the form of smooth, ornate lines in specific patterns and shapes. Upon drawing it, you see a dark blade of folded steel.

"That's about it."
  1. Purchase the katana for $250. You don't have much money in your wallet, so this will mean you'll be empty-handed for the rest of the night.
    1. Attempt to haggle. (Difficult.)
  2. Go away in the direction of Thatcher Avenue to investigate.

Accept the deal. $250's pretty good, and we're at most a solid 6 on a scale of 10.

After we buy it, we (obviously) go down Thatcher to investigate. But keep the new katana close. You never know when some asshole'll try to mug you or some werewolf will try to have us for dinner.

Werewolves probably won't be anywhere around town. They shun civilization overall. Not just Werewolves, but all Changing Breeds; Wereravens, Werespiders, and all that. Yes, there's Werespiders.

And if you mean the Gangrels, I doubt they'll try anything. Drinking another Kindred's blood is detrimental since it creates a blood bond, and sucking one dry outright causes Diablerie.

I know. But Aran the super weeb doesn't.


EDIT: I also already knew about the werespiders. Fave changing breed

I don't remember that kind of flaw............... Get it?

Either way, I had several other ideas for Questing roleplays, but I don't really want to start a new one until one of the current ones concludes.
