Hide and Seek Guerrilla Training (7pm to 9pm Shroud)

Peacemaker, Dancer and Rock

[albatross]

The three kids show up early to their 7pm appointment with Kris. Waiting patiently for him to arrive in the appointed place in the Nevada desert.

Khris showed himself to the trio at exactly 7pm, dropping his camoflauging power. " If had been an enemy, I could have killed the three of you before you even knew I was here. That is what I'm going to try to teach you how to prevent and do yourselves. I know some of the others are teaching you hand to hand training and tactics and all that fun stuff. Here, we learn how to fight dirty because in many situations, it works better. any questions before we get started?"

[albatross]

Rock bites his tongue, determined not to look stupid this time. Dancer seems shocked and doesn't answer. Peacemaker says, "When I have your scent or you make a noise I can follow you, but even then you are often not visible. Rock and Dancer don't have my senses, how will they find you?"

[dakota]

" Then you will have to direct them until they learn the signs to look for." Khris replied. " In it'll take all three of you working together every day. Any more questions?"

[albatross]

The three kids shake their heads, they don't have any more questions.

[dakota]

"Good, then I have one." khris replied. " by now someone must have filled you in on who and what I am and what I've done with Omega. Why do you think an unsavory character like me is teaching you a class like this, and why is it important?"

[albatross]

"Because you are the only one who knows how to do it?" Rock asks. Dancer nods at this. Peacemaker says, "Each person on the team is a specialist and you are the only person who can hide from me. And yet I don't think that is the only reason. Tiger has sniper rifles and incendary hand gernades. She uses different methods in different situations. I'll your the best at getting your hands dirty."

[dakota]

Khris smiled," I think Tigger is probably better than me." His smile faded as he realized he had used Tiger's pet name by mistake. " First rule, my mother named me Khris, so that's what I expect to be called. Shroud was dropped on me by my father after I was blessed with my abilities, and I prefer it only in the field if at all. So when you speak to me , do it properly and I'll return the courtesy. Now, we have three main topics, guerilla tactics, delaying tactics and escape and evasion. We'll be limited in the last one because of class time and location, but you will get the basics. I'll try to get you chance at the end of class to clean up before you move on, but I can't guarantee it. Today's challenge," he pointed towards the base," As a team, you have ninety minutes to get to the top of [inset name of OS tallest building], on the other side of the compound. You have to go across the base, not around it while staying within eye contact of one another. You can speak to one another and me, but if anyone else speaks to or acknowledges you, the challenges is a fail. We start ," he looked at his watch," now. Any questions, ask on the move."

[albatross]

The three of them nod and start to walk towards the base. Peacemaker turns to Dancer, "Are you good at sneaking?" Dancer says, "I've never tried."

Rock speaks up, "I'm Ok, but I don't think that will get us there." Peacemaker says, "I have never snuck up on anyone either. Instead, we will have to use sight, hearing and smell to discover anyone in our path and then go around them. How is your sight and hearing?" Peacemaker asks Rock.

"Great, but nothing like yours," Rock says modestly.

"Alright, I'll be the lookout and the three of us will avoid anyone on the base."

Peacemaker's Detection:

Sight - can see a small sign four miles away, so she can already start to look for anyone in their direct path.
Hearing - 720ft radius
Smell - 200ft radius

With all her senses tuned she leads them towards the base, hoping to detect anyone in their way before they see her.

Initiative:
[dice=20]+8

Rock's Contribution:

Rock's sight and hearing has 50% better range than a normal human, but is merely keen, not a super power. Rock has already looked at the base map. He will use Land Navigation, Detect Ambush, Detect Concealment, and the base prowl found under Gymnastics. If they have to hide he will use his detect concealment skill to hide Dancer and Peacemaker.

Prowl - 35%. Since only Rock can prowl, this is n/a. The girls cannot.
[dice=100]

Land Navigation - 41%. He finds the building and his way around.
[dice=100]

Detect Ambush - 40%. If anyone is waiting for them... found.
[dice=100]

Detect Concealment - 35%. If anyone is waiting for them... found.
[dice=100]

Concealment - 35%. Hides the girls well.
[dice=100]

Khris followed the trio, evaluating their efforts in his head. their paranoia towards what he had planned for them was good, but their slow pace wasn't. He knew his goal was n't easy merely because of the distance alone. He glanced at his watch," You're wasting time, people."

[albatross]

Rock picks up the pace to a jog. At least it is a jog for him. Dancer transforms and keeps pace easily, with almost casual speed.

But Peacemaker can't keep up the pace. To be honest, neither can Kris, so Rock and Dancer keep a half hearted jog going for what must be near a full speed run for Kris and Peacemaker.

Fortunately, Kris and Peacemaker have plenty of endurance so their peak pace won't wind them.

[dakota]

Khris paced PM to keep the other two from getting too far ahead. He didn't intend to interfere in any of their tactics during his challenges, but he couldn't help blurting out loudly," Remember, you are only as strong as your weakest link. In every situation." He looked right at PM, " And I don't mean in any way that you are weak."

[albatross]

Rock looks around, as if noticing Peacemaker for the first time. "I thought you were good at everything? Fast, strong, smart."

"Quick is different than distance running. Look at dancer," Peacemaker pants, "she is barely walking fast and she never gets her blocks up on you." Rock ponders the difference between running speed and agility for a moment and then eases up.

Peacemaker grunts, "I can go all day, numbskull, an even pace is fine just don't run."

"Yeah, yeah." Rock agrees goodnaturedly.

[dakota]

"You know if someone hears you and comes to see who is talking, you fail." Khris pointed out, noting that he was the one that was getting winded before the three students, but kept pace.
