What are the odds it's nazis again? They were a big part of that whole situation, and we didn't really clean up that group.
They really should be on the list, even if they aren't here finishing the job, because letting berserker nazi werewolves run around seems like a bad idea. Hopefully we can just burn down some safe houses, maybe possibly hurl some of their middle managers off of overpasses, and they'll get the message to shove off.
I cant think of a motive for neonazis to target a Chicago homicide detective who is married to an FBI agent.
And while Gorfels rival Lictor is still out there, Im not seeing an intersection between his goals and Greene's death either.
We'll see I guess.
we were making a walk-in freezer, the simplest solution would be to buy one, and then reinforce it (buy I-beams, and weld them around the main frame). Quick google
tells me that a commercial one should go for below 40k. If we wanted it cheaper, than buy a shipping container - two 40 ft large containers (place them side-by-side and cut a door from one section to the other would be less than 10 k. Reinforce those if Molly doesn't feel confined enough in those. Adding chillers to those should be easy with TTC. Yes, I think that would be the simplest solution.
As to feeling safe - you do realize that any reinforced room is also a safe room?
A walkin freezer is absolutely going to stop a mortal, but it isnt really armored against physical intrusion from a superhuman character. I still remember the one I visited and its flexing walls.
Empty containers are even worse; a 40-foot container weighs around 3.7 tons empty and its walls are less than half an inch thick.
Get a quote for a walkin freezer. One with the floor space for all the work we actually want to do.
Now get the relevant permits to fit a commercial-grade walkin freezer into this place, and the justifications thereof.
And then all of a sudden you find out that zoning regulations are relevant.
Chicago is a major city. There's all sorts of rules about what you can do in places.
This is a setting where the opposition has used chemical weapons, bombs, arson and magically empowered fortification crackers.
I am in no hurry to lock ourselves in somewhere we can afford to emplace defenses or defenders.
And especially not in a civilian residential area
We want to have workshops both above and below. The one in the dragon's nest for the more magical stuff
Why?
Distance is not an issue; they are in the same city. Duplicating facilities just raises setup costs.
And its not like we can use both locations at the same time.
This is supposed to be the showfront we can use as a front for our fabrication business. One we can show to inspectors at need and not worry about stuff.
Everything here needs to be aboveboard and with no red flags to draw additional scrutiny.
Do that shit underground. You can even do it underground and claim you did it in the warehouse.
Gloves as a fashion statement can be. And yes, we should call the cops once / if we discover a crime scene. Wearing gloves doesn't make it look like we were the ones to commit the crime. This is very, very reaching.
Wearing gloves on a late summer day at a crime scene would absolutely draw the attention of a responding officer.
And it suggest that you came prepared.
My two cents.
Yeah, that's a good point. Also, forget Red Court. Targeting (Christian) Hell, Order of Blackened Denarius, Thule Society, and "bring forth the apocalypse" project (we actually might want to spend a question on something to get a list of Thule Society and Denarian projects) together... I wonder, what Thorned Namshiel would think when they start falling to tie their own shoelaces to go to work?
NONE of these groups are people you want to target casually.
I mean, seriously, you want to attempt to fuck with the Archangel Lucy and its organization with an E2 charm?
While they are situated in their place of power? Thats crazy talk.
Hell, I fully expect your bogstandard Denarian would shrug off that sort of curse; when you have a Fallen Angel backing you, thats a lot of metaphysical heft. If the Archive didnt simply countercurse the Denarians to death after Small Favor, if Mab didnt curse the Denarians after Arctis Tor and Small Favor, we arent likely to have the metaphysical heft to do so.
Not at Essence 2.
Merlin's construction of Demonreach is something of which a WoD Mage would be proud though. At the top of the scale they're immensely powerful.
To be fair to WoD, we dont know if Merlin did the work alone, or if he had help.
Still an incredibly impressive piece of work.
EDIT
Update!
