The Shattered Teeth members who broke off into the wilderness of Canada supposedly were swept, according to Clue Guy, into Rifts Canada by a random maelstrom (well, not so random, given the Lock and Mage...) This poses a difficulty: How in God's name are they going to get to this "Canada of the Earth of the Rifts", and if they get there how do they get back?

To Canada? Yes. Rifts Canada is a little dicier. Wallace may be able to rig something up, but it'd take a lot of money and time. It's possible that you could find someone else with a dimensional device or try to get a portal or transport there from, say, the Ultimate Shop.

The question is do we have the money to get the item? I dont know how much money I have at the current moment but the ultimate shop sounds expensive cause they carry everything. I gess we could go and check it out and see how much it will cost..kk?

At the moment, thanks to Yammy's defeat Ness' bank account is bulging. You might be able to buy a ride from Soul Society as well with the help of Toshiro, using your Soul Society currency to do so.
So you'll call a shuttle to the U. Shop?

A shuttle is sent down to the group. An automated but friendly voice from inside says, "The shuttle costs ten dollars. Please insert whatever currency you use into the box, please."

The transport opens up. It is a hover transport, cushily upholstered, which is nice considering that you spend most of the flight leaning back as the car rises rapidly into the sky. The windows tint in case of motion sickness, and pleasant music is played that can be controlled by a knob. The passenger area is spacious considering that there is no driver's seat. The transport drops the group off in an airport-like area that allows people to book a transit back to the surface. Lines are relatively long even given the massive array of terminals and the fact that people can book transits from a private computer as well. There is a bustle of activity both ways, with clearly marked In and Out lanes. Once one gets inside, the size of the place is amazing. Even given the massive traffic, it still somehow seems private and spacious.

Nice, Try to find some kind of map that way I can find my way around?

There are map terminals easily placed, as well as living and robotic help staff.

The guy says, "Huh. Rifts Earth... Rifts Earth... Oh, Jesus! You want to go there?! Well, don't let me stop you. Our teleporter services are right over there. Can't miss em." He points to a large section which seems to be pure portals.

The portals list a cost of 10,000 GP. It's expensive, but it's reliable, from a central hub, two-way (though not perfect for the trip back) and lets you choose where to enter.

Sweet. we should have enough money, right? Find the one I need and have it get as close to them as possible.

Post by Frederic Bourgault-Christie on Mar 7, 2008 5:27:26 GMT -5
Yes, you have enough.
The portal can drop you off in Canada, close to the Great Lakes.

The portal is surprisingly easy to step through. There's simply a cool feel like stepping through a very thin pane of dry water, then the group is in the cold of Canada. Even though it is relatively south for Canada, and in the summer, and despite their survival skills, it is definitely nippy. They may need some better survival gear.

It's not just the cold, which being a vampire Pharesh is largely immune to. Thick snowdrifts reduce or prevent mobility in some areas. Visibility is reduced, even with supernatural senses. Some of your items may not function properly unless properly shielded. And so on. It's nice to have the necessary snowshoes, climbing spikes, etc. And that would limit you to either strapping a coffin to the back of a bear or wolf, which raises far too many questions, or travelling only by night.

night will work with me, I know it sounds like a waste but that will work best. I will have the bear make a small cave if possible that way they can sleep together! but not in that way!

Bwam-chicka wanh wanh!
At the moment, it is dusk, but Pharesh is in no risk. The problem is that the wilderness is barren and open. The proverbial scent of their friends is faint. They might search out by finding a group to perform a rite, or by their instinct, or by the spirit realms, or by going into civilization, but they need a means and soon.

All right, how will you look for "town"?

Pharesh distantly detects human blood, a reasonable concentration of it.

lets head in that direction, Is she hungry? if she need blood she can feed off melfina before we get to town.

She's been good off of blood packs and some spare troll blood, but she does feel a little nippish. Fresh prey (alive or dead) does always feel better, of course.
As they move along, they hear some growling to their side. It is bestial and horrific. The paths they have to navigate don't leave them much room, but this thing seems to be bearing down the side of the icepacks.
