You find out soon.


This isn't an adequate reason for why they should drop their current priorities, ignore about 50 bad guys, take Annie under their wing sprint the last legs to the goaline. 'cause if this comes to pass, I assure you, Dirk will perform a touchdown for my amusement. O_o

I can accept different interpretations about how Anja or Dirk might feel or notice, but I can't really decide my characters motivations based off what might happen next on this side of the fourth wall.

Wolf, your next bio and post are good, I added the dragon into the character list, and I found it pretty cool you merged them with the storyline (in regards to Akeiras and Cradle). I will post soon for Cradle and BW. Honestly, I didn't expect the shapeshifter to be Lana's companion though, but it's OK as is. If anyone's interested, Cradle is underway, and users can intro their character into the current dreamworld of Clockwork Chasm, an inside-out grandfather cloth, covered with clockwork mechanisms, with an abyss in the center. Should be cool! The inspiration for the world came from that clock level in Super Mario 64.


Oops, sorry West, I seem to have somewhat mistaken you for Wolfpack, alluding to your dragon bio for Wolf's creation. That's why I edited the character list and put her under your name. Sorry for not noticing sooner.



About kidnapping in Broken World,
I understand West's point much more; there is no reason for Dirk to kidnap Annie, especially considering the situation: a gunfight and soon-to-be exploding factory. Anja was involved in Annie's little adventure, and kidnapping the daughter of the Black Hand's leader would be quite the move, but Dirk does not know the Black Hand (as West just said), and seems to just want to survive. I don't know what Annie has planned for the suitcase, but she is free to add content if she wishes. There is also another faction that caught the signal of the suitcase, if anyone remembers. I noticed no one seems to be interested in preforming the mission's objectives, so I am somewhat unfolding the scenario in a compromise currently.

That did somewhat confuse me at first, but I figured it out in the end!


and, about the mission objectives,

Wasn't the mission objectives to escape with everyone alive?


To that end, if the distraction works and the group CAN make it to the train, wouldn't that hypothetically flag success?

West,
And fix the problem we did.
You're right, the main objective is to get out alive, but I did add another objective, but it is optional. No one has do preform any optional objective if they don't want to, but it will mean less chance of success for the side involved, as I'll just have to compromise if there is no extra details.
Yes, escaping on the train would be success!

Annie, generally speaking, people don't like the concept of kidnapping. Although you may find it interesting for Annie to be kidnapped, West does not seem to want to do that, so that decision must be respected.

Anyways, in case Annie and Anja and Dirk are separated, I may have to time-skip the role-play, and create a new mission or scenario that partakes in the future. For example, by chance, let's say Annie is sent on a mission and happens to stumble upon Anja or Dirk elsewhere in the future, or there can temporarily be two separate adventures for a while in regards to the suitcase.
However, if I recall correctly, Dirk may not actually be a gangster, so I will wait until more details emerge about Dirk's possible background. And it seems Emo and Chasers disappeared from the thread.

But why try and capture a kid that's shooting at you? Chances are they're a child soldier that's been trained from birth to do whatever their specialization is and therefore they don't know anything useful. Plus, if a hasty retreat is supposed to be being had, trying to bring a captive along is both illogical and detrimental to one's health.

Much easier to kill them, take whatever it is they have, and get going while you still can.
Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.

Indeed, I also cannot find any reason to disarm and capture a wounded child. How will Dirk kidnap Annie? Carry her in his arms while being shot at? Dirk has just jumped out a car that then crashed into a factory and exploded, Dirk may be wounded by shrapnel or fire or debris, so we don't know what's going on until West posts.
