Joan's address is a hotel, it is know for security, not letting people up, and she is renting out the penthouse on the roof, cameras covering it, id badges to be scanned, the whole 9 yards. Walking in as homid, bullshitting your way to her would not be easy, but from the quick umbral scan that side is wyrmed up as hell, this is going to be work to get to her all the way at the top of this castle.

Johanna hmms, as they stand back a ways from the building, figuring out what to do. "I can jam the cameras at least. Still, getting in there is the issue from there. Thoughts?"

Rubbing a hand over his face in thought, Troy says, "I can pretend to be a delivery guy for Uber Eats and say I got some food to bring up. I can maybe charm someone to swipe their card for me."

Khol considers and asks "Could we come down from the roof? I can get us up there if needed."

Johanna replies, "We could. The problem is - the Veil. I can jam the cameras up there. I'm just concerned about being spotted by random public."

Khol considers that for a moment then offers "Well..if you can effect the electronics.. any security system this high end will have a server control room.. We could crash the server that controls the security systems.. and then just walk in one of the emergency entrances. We can get in there.. its a matter of how subtle do we want to be, and how much of a lasting footprint do we want to leave.. i /could/ just open up a portal into the hallway outside of the room, or even into the room itself.. If we wanted to go that blatantly supernatural.. " he considers options.

Troy lifts his brows upwards at the conversation between the three, then shrugs his shoulders as he leans backwards, placing his foot bheind him. He picks at his fingernails of his thumb, humming to himself.

Khol smiles a little "i have a better idea." he motions "we can go up through this office building.. its got security, but much lower tech.. we can walk past most of it." he then points at the roof, "And we can cross from that roof, to the hotel roof.. where any one of us can ensure there are no camera's to capture our approach.. "

Ildar listens quietly, watching as they go through the potential ideas. A slow nod is given as he eyes the distance between the two buildings. "Wouldn't take much to get three arrows over. That can give us a path to walk."

Johanna nods. "I know Troy had a good idea as well. If anything, he could be a distraction so we can get across. But I hate having us split up too much."

Khol considers that for a moment "Its possible.. The weakness of the distraction is that it splits us up.. the weakness of crossing the roofs is that if there are cameras up there. they will send someone to check on them as soon as they go out.. " he looks between you "I will aid with whichever method you all choose."

"I'm fine with whatever you guys want to do." Troy says as he gives a glance to the building again. "I'm not worried about cameras. It's a mundane building. We look like normal people who could be here to meet friends or to perhaps inquire about buying one of the vacancies. It's the middle of the afternoon. The Enemy isn't going to leap out and attack us in a lobby or an elevator."

Khol suggests "Why don't we go up to the roof here.. and get a better look at the roof.. see what we have to deal with there.

Johanna considers it all. "I think we need to see what is over there, from all angles. I'm inclined to try to easier, mundane way, allowing Troy to use his strengths to try to get us in. If it does not work, then we come back tonight in cover of darkness. But at least we have more intel."

Khol Nods once "Makes sense to me." he glances to troy and smiles "Lead on Mcduff." he teases.

The office is next door it is a temp office for rent, there is a large digital map out front before the desk telling you who is where and for how long. As you enter a guard is at the right with a large pistol on his side, and a little redhead is watching her long lashes green eyes, as she is watching them in a sun dress.

Having snagged some food from Panera, because it's an upperclass 'white person' to go order type of situation, Troy makes his way with his usual confident saunter towards the front desk with a smile. He stares at the red head with his smoldering blue eyes, flashing her a killer grin that is designed to make a few hearts flutter. "Good afternoon!" He says as he leans forward to read the tag on her shirt. "Cindy. Beautiful day, huh?" He drawls as he lifts the bag up. "Got an order for three oh two. Cool to buzz me in?"

"Okay then, they do that way too much, way too damn much." Cindy is pissed off it seems, she has a plan brown bag inside is chips, and sandwich and a juice box, but that button is pushed and then she is waving him on into the world of the office building.

Rummaging into his bag of food, Troy pulls out a wrapped cookie and places it in front of her with a wink. "Thank you so much." He says as he steps inside. << I'm in. >> He says as he walks for the elevators, peeking into the bag of food as he goes. << Cindy, the receptionist is a real cutie, and she's having a bad day. Security guard is packing heat. >>

The hallway is long, there are several sets of stairs leading up into the building, but all office buildings. It is quiet and no more guards besides the one at the front, he has the way of the building for now.

<< The roof is locked. >> Troy relays back as he munches on the bag of chips he pulled out of his bag.

The door is a large iron door, back when it was the 1950's it is rusted on the hinges, the door seems like it would come off with a solid shove, or one quick flick of a card it might even open.

Troy gives a few taps of the door with his foot, then shoves his shoulder up against it.

Old rusted metal creeks, then it is open now for him to go out on to the roof.

Heading out on to the roof, Troy gives a glance over to the hotel to relay back what he sees.

<< There's a few cameras* on the roof of the hotel, and there is an elevator roof side. >> Troy says as he pops another chip into his mouth.

Khol asks <<Are the cameras aimed out and down, or are they aimed across the roof?>>

<< Cameras are pointed both down and up, but not in the direction of the building that I'm on. >> Troy says.

Khol frowns just a little <<So they are aimed across the roof, to show it, not to show the sides of the building?>>

The cameras are only for the hotel roof, it seems they are not at all worried about boarding from the other roofs, the cameras pointed to make sure no blind spots, but they move slowly. It is a low security zone, you doubt anyone watches them most of the day, besides a quick sweep.

Troy relays all of that back to the pack. Troy takes a few pictures with his cell phone so that he can show the team. He hits as many angles as he can get, as well as line of sight of the penthouse as possible before he makes his way back down to them

Khol frowns a little "Well.. what do you think?"

Watching and listening as Troy works through the scouting bit, he muses. Finally, a small nod is given in answer to Khol. "Shouldn't be hard to deal with. Temporary tech mask. Rope walk over. We're on top. We can probably get some schematics from there to know how to get to her."

Khol frowns a little bit in thought "is there a side door you can let us in by, so we can get up there too more easily?"

Troy flips his phone out to skim through the photos that he took. "I tried to get as many angles as possible." He says as he hands it to Khol.

Ildar would get that rope, along with the black outfit for that night run. Making it up silently through the building, he gets on the roof with the others and pulls his bow from that dedicated spot. Three arrows, three cords. A mental thought to Falcon to guide this true and those three shots would slam smoothly into the wall across the way. Two ropes higher than the one in the middle, making it so they have a rope bridge across now.

Having thrown on some black clothes and a black baseball cap, Troy has tugged it down over his eyes as low a she can. He pulls a hoodie over his head as well. He watches Ildar do his Green Arrow impersonation expertly with a tug of his lips upwards in a grin.

Johanna follows up with Ildar. All in black as well, the thin, lithe woman has her blonde hair covered, and tied up out of the way and under a knit hat. She raises a hand and closes her eyes - focusing on the cameras across the way to the rooftop. Bidding the spirits to do what she wishes, she smiles as they agree and click click click, they all - stop.

Khol follows along with the others, changing into a black cotton outfit himself, quiet and observant. Once the way across is secured he will keep watch so the others can get across first, following last in case of issue.

As they are climbing up to the roof, they are passing the windows inside is not hotel rooms now that they can see, it is large vats of boiling red liquid, candy it is poured over. Something like mutant gym bears, to those in the know the candy is shaped like banlings, of all sorts. They have found it seems, the main target where the wyrm taint is by tracking down this woman.

Ildar tugs on the ropes, making sure they're secure, then ties them off to something on the roof that seems solid. That done, he hold on to the ropes, making sure they're not going to drop the others for the crossing. "Looks like it's time to wreck shop.."

Johanna moves over next to Khol. "Fight it. Something is scanning you. Trying to get into you. Very much the Wyrm. You are stronger, I know it." She looks to the others, "This is going to be one of our toughest battles."

Khol pauses as he is looking over "Ah... Damn." he murmurs "This .. is about to get bad." he stands and straightens "We are seen. " he starts to gather his power about him, readying himself for whats about to happen.

Johanna is not good with this all. "There is too much here for just us. This would be a bad decision. A bad fight we will lose. I know we are good, but this is not in our favor with the information we have now. We are not prepared and they do not know everything we can do yet. Honor's Keeper - get the rope down. Khol, we need to be sure they do not track you or succeed in getting in your head. Mercy's Wings - help Honor's Keeper so we can retreat. We will plan this out, consult the spirits and my ancestors. And get Weathers the Storm in on this. We are a pack and we need him fully informed and leading us in this. We do not want to delay long, but we want to do this right - without dying."

Troy nods his head. "No problem. I'm good with it." He says, then prepares to help Ildar out as instructed.

Khol nods once, and he then focus' raising his mind shields, protecting his mind from any intrusion... it is his specialty after all. "As you say." he agrees. He starts to back away with the others, "We will be back though."

Ildar had been about to pull one of those talens but paused at Jo's order. A nod is given. "Of course!" and Ildar would act. Shifting that grip on the ropes from bracing, to bracing himself, Ildar gets two and hands one to Troy. That done, he'd flex and yank. Hard. The ropes were designed for this though, so it pulls that arrow out of the wall cleanly, flipping it up and back towards them, where Ildar will catch them. Nope.. Never practiced that little trick. Or maybe he has a bit, from how steady he is on it?

Johanna nods sagely with Khol, "We /will/ be back here and wreck that place. We will prep and be smart about this. This is more than just talking to a possibly tainted woman - if they are producing banes in there."

There is the sound of feet coming up the stairs, many feet as if something is coming up a large something, it is almost at the door.

Ildar finishes getting the arrows, then glances to the door. Walking over, he would plant his feet, bracing himself to plant against it. << I think it's time to moon bridge out. I don't think down this way is a safe option. >> He would give across that pack link as he prepped himself to keep that door closed to make sure the others could get away!

Khol starts moving quickly following the rest of the pack to get out of there, orders have been given, and he doesn't delay or hold off on doing as he was ordered.

Johanna nods quickly. "Considering the footsteps? Yeah." She steps over is ready to open the moon bridge for them all to go through. With a wave of her hand, she opens the moon bridge, and waits for Khol and Troy to go through first. "Let's go! Honor's Keeper, last one out, with bow."

Khol dives straight through as soon as the door opens, he wont be the one to slow things down.

Hurrying after the others, Troy gives a firm nod of his head as he listens to the others. << Got it. >>

Johanna follows Troy and Khol into the Moon bridge, and waits on the other side for Ildar. She does not want to leave him behind.

"The Hell??" That peek through the door frame as Ildar blink in surprise. He grunts, coming across that pack link. <<Ready.>> When the others are through and only then, does Ildar go. That bow drawn again from where it's held dedicated to him, he mad dashes for that moon bridge, an arrow already notched so whatever that thing is? Will be in for a surprise if it tries to go after him! <<There was.. a thing! Big! Green! And shoes and mouths and butt ass ugly!!>>
