The Unholy Newt Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 (New Orleans PD, New Orleans. Time: 5:39pm) [I]Senior Detective Basil Coddlesworth (Baz for short) and Senior Detective Angel Isis, are called into Comissioner Anderson's office[/I] Baz: Whats up Chief? Chief: I've got a case for you Baz: Well, what's she doing in here *points to angel* I work alone Chief: I've decided to make you two partners. Angel & Baz: WHAT!? Chief: Look, I know you two got history and everything, but you have to work together on this one. Baz: Well, what have you got for us? Chief: They're has been a couple of murders. Angel: So what else in new? Chief: They aren't your average murders. They're all wierd. The press are calling them The Voodoo Murders. Apparently they were commited by the Voodoo locals. Baz: But they haven't caused us any trouble before. Chief: Yeah, but apparently they've been done with some kind of ritual knife and the heart has been removed and looks like burned in some kind of basin or something like that . . anyway you can find out when you get there. Angel: Lets go then. Chief: Wait, first you have to meet the other people you'll be working with. Baz: Other people? Chief: Yep, first is Detective Tepes. He's just been promoted and this is his first case. Next is Detective Sikes, he runs a private detective business and is an expert in criminology. And last is Siren Kotja. He is just your basic street urchin but should prove to be useful. They are waiting outside. Get yourself aquainted and then head down to the armoury for your weapons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unholy Newt Posted June 1, 2002 Author Share Posted June 1, 2002 [I]Baz looks around and something catches his eye. It was just a tiny sparkle but just enough to notice. He walked over to it and looked at it. It was a snake scale, it wasn't small but it wasn't too big either.[/I] Baz: Anyone know anything about snakes? Siren:*Looks at it* Looks like a Python scale. Angel: Isn't there one of those at the Voodoo Museum? Giovanni: Hey Guys, come look at this! [I]Everyone comes over to look at it. There was some kind of strange marking carved into the wood. It looked like some funny circle thing filled with lines and other markings. Also above the wall was some kind of message, written in some symbol code. Baz copies it down and continues to search[/I] Baz: Looks like that is all we'll find here. The next scene is down by the swamp, lets go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liamc2 Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 [i]The group exit and walk towards the car, but notice another sitting on it, waiting for them[/i] Sikes: model T ford. .not very reliable is it? Baz: and who might you be? Sikes: *smiles* Sikes, I hear that you lot are investigating some murders. You sure you want to look for the murderers? Angel: yes, that is our job Sikes: but don't you usually look for criminals armed? [i]Sikes opens his jacket to reveal his two weapons, and looks meaningfully at their empty holsters[/i] Baz: ah. .yes. .the ah. . armoury. .

marbar Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 [I]After a slight detour to retrieve their weapons, they head out to the swamplands, near the city limits.[/I] Gio: So, what do people know about these Voodoo locals? Angel: They're just a minority with some weird beliefs. But these murders go way past weird. Baz: Seems hard to believe the Voodoo locals are fully behind this. They keep to themselves and are usually quite peaceful. Gio: Oh, well. We'll soon find out who did this. [I]They pull up beside the road to find a group of men around the crime scene.[/I] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unholy Newt Posted June 3, 2002 Author Share Posted June 3, 2002 [i]Baz takes cover behind their car and orders the others to do also. He then draws his Revolver[/i] Baz: IDENTIFY YOURSELVES!!! [i]The men give a startled cry and dive behind trees their weapons blazing. Baz fires two shots downing one of the five men then running ahead taking cover behind a stump[/i] Baz: THROW DOWN YOUR WEAPONS NOW!!! [i]Sikes steps out with his two automatics and blasts three of the men down and the last one promptly surrenders.[/i] Baz: Angel, Cuff em! Angel: Right, *she does so* Baz: WHO ARE YOU! Man: I'm . . . I'm . . . Dravan Peters Sikes: Why are you here? Dravan: I was sent here to . . . [i]Draven is cut short as a shot rings out and he drops dead from a bullet to the face. Sikes runs after the source of the fire but finds nothing[/i] Sikes: He's gone . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unholy Newt Posted June 6, 2002 Author Share Posted June 6, 2002 [i]Looks around the scene of the murder. It was just as horrific as the one over on Rathel Road. He looked around and the same glitter caught his eye like the one before. He went over to it and picked it up. It was another snake scale. He then looked around some more, there were the same drawings and markings as in the house.[/i] Baz: Let's go. We've seen all we need here. *he jotted down a picture of the marking* Angel: Go where? Baz: To the Voodoo Museum. I need to talk to Dr. John. Gio: Who is Dr. John Baz: The guy who runs the place. I have my suspicions about him. [i]They get in the car and drive off.[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jupitersun Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 angel:baz why do you suspect dr.john? Baz: you'll see.... as they drive they talk about stuuf like life not one word anout dr.jhon or the murders when they arrive at the voodoo museum they go inside Dr. Jhon: why hello and welcome to the museum of voodoo*his sleeve moves slighty as he opens up his arms in welcome, angel notices a mark like one she saw at the crime scenes she thinks"thats odd.." Baz: hello doctor jhon i'd like to ask you about this symbol*he shows the symbol to doctor jhon as he studies it angel looks at the tatoo on his arm* Dr. Jhon: this is the vodoo symbol of death Baz: really......

Raquel Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 siren smirks and laughs softly baz raises an eyebrow at her and she shakes her head slightly... angel raises an eyebrow and siren glares at her as if to say "you know...don't say anything" she moves to a bench and sits, watching them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unholy Newt Posted June 7, 2002 Author Share Posted June 7, 2002 OOC: Can a mod please merge those two posts? Marbar must have deleted his. Thanks. Baz: Dr. John, do you happen to own a snake. A python in particular? Dr. John: Yes . . . I do. Baz: Do you mind if I take a look at it? Dr. John: Not at all, this way. [i]Dr. John shows him toward the back to a snake tank. It was rather large and very nasty looking. As Baz looked closer he noticed that the snake had very large holes in it's skin.[/i] Baz: Do voodoo practitioners use pythons in their rituals at all, Dr. John? Dr. John: They used to but the practice has been disbanded as the python was usually used in the voodoo rite of sacrifice. Baz: Interesting. [i]He notices a dagger on the wall resembling the one that was supposed to have been used in the murders.[/i] That is a very interesting knife Dr. John, what is it used for? Dr. John: Ahh . . . that is also used in the voodoo rite of sacrifice. Baz: Dr. John. I would request that you join us down at the station for some . . . questioning. [i]A look of fear jumps into Dr. John's eyes as he realises he just said to much. He knocks a voodoo idol in Basil's path as he runs for the back door. Baz draws his shotgun cleverly concealed beneath his trenchcoat and gives chase.[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STOP HIM!! she pushes herself off the pillar and sprints out the way they came in... she tore around dumpsters and over fences... she skidded to a stop as dr. jhons car tore around the corner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liamc2 Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 Sikes: *running with the others* that car is as old as time, don't worry 'bout it, at the rate he's going in 3. . .2. . .1 boom [i]A loud backfire sound comes from down the street in the direction of Dr John's vehicle. Sikes gives a 'I told you so' smirk to Baz before sprinting down the street while unholstering his guns[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unholy Newt Posted June 10, 2002 Author Share Posted June 10, 2002 [i]Baz ran to the corner which Dr. John was a round. He quickly jumped out and fired a shot and jumped back in. He looked carefully around the corner and Dr. John was missing a hand and dived behind the car. Baz quickly ran out and took cover also behind the car. He quietly edged around the car and put his barrel to Dr. Johns head but he just smashed it out of the way and hit Baz around the head knocking him to the ground with a hit that would down an elephant (Dr. John was about seven foot and about as strong as an ox). The others ran around the corner to see that Dr. John had fixed his car and driven off with Baz. They would never catch up to him now.[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unholy Newt Posted June 11, 2002 Author Share Posted June 11, 2002 OOC: Voodoo dolls are just superstition. They are not included in this RPG. [i]Baz woke up. His head was stinging from pain. He tried to get up but his his hands and feet were tied. As soon as his vision returned, he looked around. He appeared to be in some cellar. He tried to reach his knife but found it was gone. He looked closely around the walls and saw a jagged hook sticking out. He wriggle/hopped his way over and started to cut the ropes with it. Eventually he managed to cut through them and untie his feet. He then got up and headed for the door . . .[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbar Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 [I]As the others get more weapons, Giovanni searches the Records Room for any information on Dr. John. In the deep recesses of the filing cabinet dedicated to the Voodoo locals, he finds two newspaper clippings. One is a story announcing the appointment of a new curator in the Voodoo Museum with a picture of Dr John. After Gio read the other clipping, he strutted into the armoury with a smug look on his face.[/I] Gio: We got an address! [I]He brandishes the 'want ad' proudly and reads aloud,[/I] "Looking for any Voodoo antique. Will pay large amounts for any genuine artifact. Please contact Dr John at 43 Oscil Street."

The Unholy Newt Posted June 13, 2002 Author Share Posted June 13, 2002 [i]Baz turned the knob on the door, it was open! He looked outside, there was no one around. The was a path to the front, the left, and the right. The paths to left and the right seemed to curve around, looking like the place was circular. The path to the front lead to what looked like the middle. Baz took the left path. As he walked down he just managed to get into another room as someone dressed in an eagle mask and a robe walked past. He flicked on the lights in the room and found a closet with those same costumes. Baz grabbed a wolf mask and robe and put them on. "When in Rome," he thought. He stepped back out into the corridor and took the next path that lead into the centre of the building. After several metres he came to a room, it had an altar in the middle and two fire pits. He figured it must be a voodoo temple. Baz went back to the closet room, got enough costumes for each of his collegues and went for the exit. After walking around the circular corridor, he came to a lift. He went up and found himself in some sort of living room. "This place is huge!" he thought to himself. He found his way outside and found that it was a mansion. He took of his costume, noted the address and headed back to the precinct.[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raquel Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 Siren lounges in a chair and stares into space absently... Angel pokes her and she snaps back into reality Siren: What? What'd i miss? Angel frowns and shakes her head... Angel: You need to pay attention more often... Siren snorts and sits strait Siren: Well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unholy Newt Posted June 14, 2002 Author Share Posted June 14, 2002 [i]As they are sitting around NOT BOTHERING TO SAVE BAZ!!!! He walks in. They all jump up to see if he is okay. Baz walks over and sits down.[/i] Baz: So, where were you guys? I had to save myself. Gio: Sorry Baz, we only just found the address. Baz: Okay then, lets go. We have a cults as* to kick. [i]They exit the preicinct, get into the car and drive off to the mansion. (After making sure they had their guns)[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbar Posted June 17, 2002 Share Posted June 17, 2002 [i]They pull up outside the mansion.[/i] Gio: *whistles* Man, this guy is loaded! Baz: Okay, everyone make sure you have your weapons loaded. This is going to be one hell of a firefight. Sikes: *pulls out his two 9mm Ludwig automatics and spins them round his finger* I'm ready. The others pull out their weapons, check they are loaded and walk to the huge double doors of the mansion. Baz: Well, here goes nothing! [i]He knocks...[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unholy Newt Posted June 17, 2002 Author Share Posted June 17, 2002 OOC:Knocks!? You don't knock when you are about to burst in and flatten the place. lol. [i]Baz waited for a couple of seconds then got impatient. He lifted his foot and kicked the door down. There was no one inside.He lead the group to the lift. He pressed the button and the door opened. They got inside and pressed the button for the basement.[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbar Posted June 19, 2002 Share Posted June 19, 2002 OOC: Knocking gives you the perfect oppurtunity to blow away whoever answers! IC: [i]THe elevator slowly descended. Everyone has their guns out, expecting a huge battle.The lift doors open...[/i] Gio: There's no one here. [i]They all disappointedly put their weapons away.[/i] Angel: It's eerily quiet. Where is everyone? Baz: Follow me. I know where we can get disguises. [i]They hurry after Baz. After a few minutes of searching, he finds the room he hid in previously. They all dress up in the voodoo cloaks and animal masks.[/i] Gio: What's that sound? It sounds like chanting. [i] They step into the narrow corridor and look around. A torch-lit procession of Voodoo shamen is approaching. They seem to be holding ceremonial spears.[/i] Sikes: Time for some fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
