Sorry posting took so long, I've become obsessed Xcom 2 again.

Lastolva, Mandy Aleah nods as she listens to Lastolva and Mandy, "Let's just hope that radial dream is worth it..." She looks sadly at the ground for a second before instantly smiling again "Oh Lastolva! You got some mail back at the base." Priela The man smiles kindly at Priela "No need to be so formal," he spoke with a slight German accent, "I'm not of the Catholic church. After what Ian did to Sister Lucia's habit, they thought it better to put a Lutheran pastor with this team. From what the mother said when she noticed the boy was missing she left the house and ran into the forest to look for him. The father is in the town working." Atma, Mandy, Mihaly When Atma began to speak to him he turns quickly and puts his skeletal hand over Atma's mouth, he then takes his hand away and stares at it in annoyance, "Can't cover a mouth very well with no skin. Look I don't want to scare anyone so-" Mandy's shout rings though the forest and Dijon slowly turns his head towards her with frustration pouring from the pin-pricks of light that are his eyes. The mother holds her son tightly to her chest with fear on her face, the woman in lamellar quickly walked up to them, "Come, I will take you home." She takes the mother by the hand and walks toward the forest.

Ian sneers at Priela after her comment, saying nothing but spitting on the ground in her direction. He simply nods at Mihaly. Bogdan notices Mandy’s hurrying motions and follows her more quickly. Shortly you make your way to the spot and see the rest of the patrol. First thing you see a short dark skinned woman speaking kindly to another woman who looks distressed. Next to the short woman is a pale middle aged man in priest garb and an Asian woman in lamellar armor with Chinese ornaments. From behind a tree a skeleton in modern army fatigues with a shotgun on his back is peeking from behind a tree. You would know these people in order of mention, save the distressed woman, as Aleah, Friedrich, Caihong, and Dijon. You would also know that Aleah and Dijon are brother and sister. As the distressed woman speaks, she spares a glance toward you as you arrive, before turning back to the woman she was talking to. But then she turns toward your group again with wide eyes and reaches her and toward Bogdan. She staggers forward slowly but quickly picks up speed to a full run. Bogdan copies his mother and runs to meet her where they embrace each other. Aleah walks up beside Mandy and says sweetly “I wish we had more moments like this.”

Working on the post now in the meantime, What happened in fiddler on the roof that made what Mihaly said passive aggressive?

You all walk as you discuss your thoughts on the situation. Short to arrive and short to return. When you reach the area, you see a 6 foot, rotund man in a red kilt with a great sword leaning against a tree. "So ya finally decided to stop prayin' to the Pope ya Taig?" Said Ian glaring at Priela. Priela you would know that Taig is a slur against Catholics and this is the way he normally acts when ever you interact with him. He has a big issue with the Catholic church as a whole but he is Presbyterian. Mihaly if you publicly display your Catholicism, you would get the same look. "The rest o' the group is with the lad's mum, up the path a little ways."

There is a long pause on the radio "Bring the kid here." Replies the voice on the other side "We've been talking to someone they may want to see" and then he tells you to meet him at the place you usually change patrols.

Hey all we 're still going I'm just waiting for Atma Just as a note if you have nothing to add to a scene you may pass if you want.

Priela You would know that only a small portion of the Church's forces were sent but they were hand selected as some of the best. While the Demon Castle is an issue that must be resolved, monster attacks the world over have spiked since it's arrival so they need bodies to protect the people. As for the logistics, there is a lot of infantry and a small amount of vehicle support almost exclusively for transport. You have about a 8,000 people at camp with more coming as time goes on but much more slowly compared to the beginning. Many of the people coming are not used to working in large groups as monster hunters tend to be isolated. Also these people come from the world over so communication is somewhat difficult but most know at least some English. Priela might not like it, but there is also a portion of monsters working with the camp, including undead and a few stranger beasts. They are not liked but make up about 5% of the forces. For VIPs, there are 5 people who act as a sort of leading counsel, so all major parties have a say. They are Salvatore De Giorgi, archbishop of Palermo, Italy, Ruth Derby, Mexican American UN occult expert, Akshat Banerjee, Indian legendary retired hunter, Chioma Abubakar, Arcane researcher from Nigeria, and a Native American mummy, called Agilisi(grandmother). Together they vote on any major decision that goes about in camp. Lastolva You see Mandy rubbing her eye and she tells you she found tracks of something heading to the forest, but on closer inspection they are simple deer tracks Mihaly and Atma Bogdan takes in what your saying. He says he hopes the man stops soon his mom has been acting scared of something and whenever there is a sound outside he has to go to the basement. He also says he's not sure how far he ran while looking for Mănuși he only found him when he was crying in pain, he says with a very upset tone that he thinks he is lost. Priela Shortly after you finish praying. Your radio goes of and a voice with a thick Scottish accent says "Priela, You there or what? We've been waiting for 5 minute for your sorry ass to get back here. What the hell you doing over there?"

Sorry you were right so no deception also sorry for the wait on this also we are going to skip Mandy for now, I'll take a little control until she gets back.

sure thats fine

I assume you mean Mihaly when you said Bogdan? Also its fine but if it would be easier you can make shorter posts. I'm just looking for enough to know what your character would be doing.

Mihaly OOC: Yes, We need to now if he believes you or what his dad told him. Mandy You are looking at the ground watching for tracks and you manage to find some. You follow them for a bit when you hear a noise in the trees. You look up swiftly only to be poked in the eye by a low hanging branch and let out a loud yelp. OOC: No damage but humiliation, City Girl Lastolva & Priela You hear a yelp from Mandy coming from where she found the boy and cat.

The boy says his name is Bogdan and that he doesn't know if there are any more. He hasn't seen before now. His family lives in a cottage in the woods. His father told him to be careful after the people from the Church came to the house. He didn't say why though. When Mandy speaks to Bogdan, he just stares at with a perplexed look before turning to Mihaly asking what she said. OOC: Atma did you tell the group what to remembered about the monster?

Atma OOC: Lets just do one roll per post out of combat. I'll take the highest. Atma, your research into real demons allows you to move past your immediate assumptions to identify this as a nuglub as easily as Mandy. You do recollect some different info though. Based one what you know, nuglubs enjoy killing and causing injury more than making traps. They will set up ambushes, attack and then hide in the shadows, hoping someone else will take the blame for the acts they have commited. They take great joy in this and usually do it alone. Everyone The boy looks at Mihaly when he asks him to stop. Responding that this hurt his family's cat, Mănuși(Mittens) and deserved it. To the second phrase in Romanian, he holds his still sleeping cat close to his chest. He looks around with wide eyes asking if there were more of those things in the woods. He just went after the cat when he left the door open and it got out.

Lets wait for Atma and Mandy before we keep going, I want to make sure they have time to react.
