>>84325There is one and only one spot that is both weakish and decently away from guards
>>84324>>84325aka be a dick to the guard. A dig bickIron approaches the guard and stands in front of him, glaring him very intensely.
How to italic? >>84327There is no hole or break. It is a set of weaker fence that could be broken
>>84328He is in a booth, but he eventually he looks over
"May I help you?"
>>84329"Yes," he says with a hint of venom in his voice. "I wish to pass through the gate right now," He stomps the floor. "and I do not like waiting." He has that glare still, now focused on the booth guard's eyes. He wonders if he can break the booth window with his hooves.
>>84331"For what purpose and to see whom?"
>>84332"I do not need a reason or a pony to see, now are you going to let me inside or not?" Iron tries to measure the window's strength. If he wants to make a big distraction, he needs to trespass through the front gate. He also tries to predict if he can climb through the fence with his own hooves and willpower.
>>84329"hmmm i knew i should have bought those wire cutters."
Dark tar whispers to him self
>>84331>>84332Can i here them from where i am or should i roll a listen check?
>>84334Silver trots over while Iron has the guard distracted. "Find anything?"
>>84335"yea this part of the fence seems weak."
Dark Star motions toward it
>>84333"No, this is a gated community. Only those who are approved to visit or have valid purposes may enter." The guard says calmly. The window looks like glass. The fence is tall enough that he could not climb it without aid of a climbing tool
>>84337>window looks like glassThat sounds way funnier that it should be."What part of 'I want to enter this neighborhood' is not enough valid reason for you?" He tries to measure if this pony has any quirks that can be used to enrage him.
>>84338Any quirks are not immediately obvious. He is a tan pegasus pony that wears a brown uniform. It seems that he was previously reading a magazine
"You cannot enter" He says
>>84339Iron tries to see what's inside the magazine. "The only thing that does not enter is your stubborness and refusal to let me inside."
>>84340He sighs very audibly. He presses onto a radio. "We have a public intox here, Gate B." He does not respond to Iron. The magazine has been placed down by now
>>84342Wrought Iron. Tubular. Painted Black
"They won't escape this time,...." he silently Eeeeee's to himself, on a descent course.
>>84343>Wrought IronCould i use entangle to pry it?
>>84344Definite night time. A few lights on the street, leading to a checkerboard pattern of lit areas and unlit areas
[1d20+2 = 18]>>84336>>84343Strength: Silver places his forehooves onto the weakened wrought iron bars, and attempts to bend or break them.
>>84345Uh... that might move the wrought iron, but it would create another large object that would need to be passed through and is also not subtle from the adjacent road
>>84347Well, he breaks that particular bar
>>84346Bree descends in a manner that allows him to avoid lights. Daggers ready, in case somepony surprises him, but otherwise angled for a silent landing.
>>84341"What did you call me? A 'public intox'? I will have you know that I am a well respected member of this city. You do not have the right to speak to me that way!" He starts lightly hammering the booth window with one of his hooves. "You better let me in!"
This is next level hypocrisy.>>84344>>84349Is that the big vampire boi? >>84348Silver takes a look at the hole he's made, and how many more he would have to break to create a large enough opening for them to slip through.
>>84344The sorcerer looks at the scene and shakes his head.
"Here we go again." He mutters to himself.
>>84350He looks directly into Iron's eyes
"Alright, can i get your name and who you are here to see?"
>>84349Now here is the question. Where does he want to land? The lots themselves are usually at least an acre with reasonably large houses on them. The front yards are always well trimmed grass, and the back yards mostly are, with pools and some trees. A few properties have a green pathway and a creek through the back. In the front are roads
>>84351That was the weakened section. It may allow a smaller pony to fit through, but not a larger pony. He would need to break at least one more
>>84353Not quite
[1d20+2 = 12]>>84354Strength: Silver tries to break another off.
[1d20+3 = 9]>>84350Quiet you>>84352You can get stabbed too, if you wantSpot check, best landing spot, on the roof ideally.
>>84355Not quite
>>84357Okay, just so we are crystal clear here, is he wanting to land on the roof of
the target house, or of a random house?
[1d20+2 = 6]>>84358Strength: He grunts to himself as he attempts to put more effort into breaking the bar one last time. "Come...on..."
>>84356Spark heads to the very unstealthy ponies to help them break bars... although Spark is not ideal for strength.
"How can I help?"
>>84357 We will see. Now that I think of it, you might be mad at me giving away all the gold to everypony but you. >>84354"Like I would let you
my name to a below average guard." He scoffs indignantly. "Look at you. You cannot even open a door for a pony to pass through. How can I expect you to keep my information safe?" He tries to look if the reinforcements have arrived, and will be on the lookout if they haven't.
>>84360>inb4 Spark found dead by bite wound on neck. >>84358That depends. With a modified 9, how favorable is the target building?
>>84360"Cant you melt the bars or something?"
>>84364"You really think using a magical attack won't raise suspicion? We need to be quiet, and fast. I don't give Iron long before they try and shoot him."
>>84361Judging from a set of headlights on the road behind the booth, it looks as if reinforcements have indeed arrived. However, the guard's tone has calmed down. It's almost as if putting up with drunk ponies who want to pull rank is something he deals with literally daily and considers to be a part of the job.
"The guest list is only for the pony whose house is being visited. We have complete confidentiality. Tell you what, just tell us who you are going to visit, and we will call that pony"
>>84362To land on? There is a flat area on the roof, and some windows that could be broken into in what looks like a false third level/attic
>>84368Splendid, aiming for the apparently available landing point then
>>84366"im sure he can take a few bullets and then break their faces.
>>84368How tall is the fence?
[1d20+4 = 8]>>84364>>84366Silver gives up, tired after not getting anywhere with the bar he's working on. "Ah...it is no use. Here, you two should fit through here." He motions to the hole he managed to make in the fence by breaking the first bar. "I will have to find other way through."
>>84368I'm going to assume there's a horizontal bar at the top of the fence.Use Rope: Silver brings the knotted rope out of his saddlebags, and tries to tie one end of it firmly on the top bar of the fence.
>>84372Dark Star climbs through
"its times like these that make me wish i was a Pegasus."
>>8437117 feet
>>84370The building is two definite floors, although with a false third floor. It is white with black roof tiles in the inclined areas. The very top is also white. There is a chimney on the side to the right of the road
It is so, should he chose to land
>>84372Uh, it's kind of high for that
>>84373Hmmm... roll Escape artist (dex)
>>84368"Open the door and I will tell you what I will do in there." Iron stares. "Unless you are too much of a wuss to even try. I bet you are hiding the fact that you are a mare with all those clothes on you." He checks how well armed these ponies are. Pretty sure the police will not interfere unless there are shots fired.
By the way, is Skies part of the mission?
