COMMENTARY
Fucking AK gunner.
And I was right to worry about the pistol guy's alertness. Didnt know Gard could activate bullet immunity; she didnt mention it
On the other hand, secret knowledge get, +2 Essence.
Luckily pistol shots arent unknown in Englewood, and I doubt anyone is going to call the cops.
Still have to find the other two thralls; they're probably underground.
Our anima is glowing.
Eyes everywhere, limned in green fire.
Looks like we're trading unmentioned secrets with Gard.
So two victims for the ER, one of moderate severity.
Looking online, ambulance response times average 7 minutes in urban areas, with standards calling for 6-11 minutes.
So we can expect an ambulance in around ten minutes.
Chest wall injury is bloody, but the critical equipment is protected by the bony ribcage.
As long as we clip any arterial bleeds, preventing continuing bleeding should work, with detailed reconstruction left to the trauma teams in the hospital. Dude will probably take months to heal though, then face local weapon charges because AK47.

As much as I hate to say this, I suggest we try and save them. Even if they are bad people, Molly's dad is the standard to which we must try and live up to. I dislike White-knighting but in this case, I think it is the right call.
[X] Have Clipy send out a call when you are at the Undertown entrance, there are still at least two more thralls in the shop besides
Do not apologize for virtue, whether generosity or mercy.
Or just being a decent human being.
Its not about the worthiness of the recipient, its about the principles of the giver.
From Molly's occult lore she knows that if the mind control is superficial enough one can break it in the face of mortal peril. Mechanically it gives you one more roll to push the magic out, though of course this is not true if the caster was through enough.
Looks like it wasnt Kattrin's work. Which was my expectation as well.
Good for them.
The most medically skilled person here is Michael with one dot. Probably not a good idea to ask him to fix 'axe to the chest'.
Fix? No. Stabilize? Yes.
The chest has a lot of bone protecting the heart and lungs; everything else is just external muscle padding.
And while I'm sure Gard could cut into a person's chest normally with her axe, I have doubts she can do so in the same cut as cutting through an AK47.
Just keeping the person alive for EMT response gets them to a trauma center, and Chicago has a very good Level 1 trauma center.
Going to note that you can pool abilities
Source? In Ex vs WOD I didn't see anything about that. And knowledge rolls in OWOD can't be made untrained AFAIK. Found a VTM Dark ages wiki mentioning that and it said so in Mage revised, and I find it improbable VTM20th changed their mind about this.
Molly has Clippy in her phone to look up best practices in trauma injury and whisper it to her.
And her father is there as well.
Just like you can have people being talked through landing a plane by someone in their ear, she can stunt this as well.
