They can't see him, but Jamie and Russel both hear Rodney's confused and groggy voice as he is roused from restful slumber to the sound of Russel's shouted warning.OOC wrote:Here is some mood music: I WIll Not Bow, performed by Breaking Benjamin.
"Whaaaa … what? What's going on?"
In Rodney's bedroom Maryanne and Mel hear some stumbling in the area Anika had been sleeping. There are a couple crashes as objects from stands or shelves come crashing to the ground. Then there is a wwsskk as the room's one window has it's blinds pulled open. Maryanne and Mel can see Anika's form shilloetted in the light as she pushes the blind two either side of the window, offering some limited visibility to the girls in Rodney's room.

Rodney is a Heroic NPC, and like a PC will be both tough to take down (in theory) and have/be able to earn HP. Anika is a Minion for combat purposes. The Foster family, other than Rodney, are Bystanders.
Rodney is Stunned, and doesn't get to act this round.
Anika uses her turn to move to the bedroom window and open the blinds. Some light from the city spills into the room. Mel, with her Low Light Vision, sees with no penalty. Everyone else will be suffering -2 to all checks involving accuracy or visual perception. In effect, Partial Concealment. This is for Rodney's bedroom only. Everywhere else is in total darkness (-5).
Anika uses her turn to move to the window in Rodney's room, then open the blinds to let some light in.
Those of you with higher Initiative than Unknown #1 may act in any order.
