Back up to so salt you just introduce yourself to these these pirates They you know very flip like a new move. Yeah super flip move. Look at you What's going on what you know because he was in the middle of sort of a rating the quietly rating but silver rating this guy and then you just sort of You know approach come out. Oh, I'm sorry come on like.
Oh, my name is mr. Stevens I haven't been out on the on the waters for a very long time and I used to be a cabin boy for a ship like this and it just He puts a smile on an old man's face and a nice little spring in his step. How do you again appear twice? Oh?
Definitely salt pepper not like old enough, but whatever. Okay, they might think he's just fucking drunk I mean that yeah, is Steven spelled with a V or a pH all three a Steve Finn Steve Finn Yeah, I'm right down like good. Okay, so Hair just kind of immediately like it takes her three seconds to kind of recover of like what the fuck and she What's he doing? She grabs like and like turns back to like pretending to like look at something like a map and she just kind of is like hitting her forehead like Why is this gonna feel like I think it's actually flop starts to move towards salt because he's used to you doing these kind of things So he goes up to help but then do you stop him or what he I don't notice him.
Okay, so yeah, he can I walk over? Okay? So notice this flop okay, so salt I'm gonna have you roll a You like a deception check I guess where you how true is this because if in the past you have worked as a cowboy right? I say he's a growing up He's had to do plenty of jobs bounty hunting in this freelance explorer board and I think when he because this whole Grasky linson happened like pre-teen like about anywhere between like age 7 to 10 or so So definitely a cab boy.
So he does you know the lingo. It's a little rough, you know Which might play into that like it's been a while you see so I think what he's trying to do is get him to come down because he kind of Like flips a deal like yeah, I'm back to bar. Okay, pay her tab like who's gonna turn down a free drink of shelf Yeah, um, roll me then don't want me to section and roll me a either a charm or I think Charon makes something Unless you have one that would make more sense on your end that you could explain away I am deceiving them. I mean I think they can roll a charm.
Yeah, I mean, yeah I would say charm by committing no sense Seems like a difficulty three And what's this guy is willpower to but he's adversary so it's gonna be free verbal I mean I should be happy about that Any check is a bonus because he's like smart essentially You can spend a store if you want to up here something I do want to spend a start plan to get This is what it feels like I'm trying to think no one's really helping you so you Can't I mean the dogs there, but he's just next to you probably gonna make it worse. All right, okay six disadvantage But I have a success You physically could not have rolled more disadvantage That's a lot I need to figure out what to talk with you with um Like one of those they just buy so many drinks from me out of money like I think the offer was like, you know gentlemen You know you've given me this good memory. Here's some money, but they're like no no sir come with us They're not gonna leave you here. So we all four of us are headed back to the bar Okay, the ship is left so I think you get you start to get the rambling because you kind of you fall into the So for three does it oh no because it's it knows one of those out five not six five.
I almost did some bad stuff Okay, so I You are going to reveal to them and you're gonna tell me as a player truthfully you can reveal to them your goal in the encounter and you're going to reveal your No, you're gonna black guys on your next and we're so you get black guys for whatever next is you realize you start to talk too much Because they find out what your goal is so maybe you say it to them, but then they're like wait It's not just a friendly talk. There's like some they know there's some sort of motive So what is your goal right now? So my motive? I'm just trying to draw you a drum away Okay, it's all so they've got time to flip around they can kind of tell that your goal is to get them away from the ship But yeah, and is and are you trying to get them to your friends or you try to get them to the bar or get them to the bar?
That way it gives these two a prime opening to get a steal a ship which of course yeah we have no ability to communicate with you or like Yeah, okay, I think I think what might have taken off It's like I remember the time when I was on the ship and someone stole it as you know We go out of sight. It's kind of like so yeah, and they know you want to get away from the ship, but right now you succeeded So they're convinced that you're They're just like we need to get some brings anyways and he wants to take us to the bar So I guess so right yeah, and so you're paying your body and you know that you're talking too much Because you're giving a little bit too much away, right because you loudly said steal like there's things happening But you succeeded and you got them away from the ship right? I feel like I know you're playing me but I'm here for it So I think flop is like he's like he's like he starts to follow you But then he looks back to flip and like no and then you like he starts continuing to follow salt and then looks to you No, and then you like wave over to him and he's like And then he like trots over to you and the three of them so it's salt No, there's four there was three of them on top of the ship So it was the boss man Joe and then one of the other guys from the bar So there's one of Pearson from the bar that we don't know where they're at right But there you know you get three of them off the ship and they go over to the bar cool fade over to Are there two with flop like bundles up to you and like looks up who what's the plan buddy? Really?
Okay, Hera slaps him over the head again like okay, and she's she's trying to like take charge of this shit show So she's like okay the dog is making the plans Yeah, it has it has no idea what to do with that So she's like okay kid and she's kind of pulls him along and they walked towards the ship like take note here Because this is the absolute worst thing that you want to do in this situation This is not how this should have gone well I don't know the ship's empty do we know that the top of the ship is empty the top of the ship's empty There is another like there is at least one maybe two come with me so she kind of grabs him And she's like come on we've got to clear the ship see what we can see right on apparently We're supposed to steal it with no information and like no no way of communicating with salt that we've succeeded or failed But sure yeah, that's fine. Let's do this. Okay, let's piss off my former buses like why not and she just kind of starts mumbling Angry things while like trying to like get on the ship and seem like she knows what she's doing and that like I think her main concern is that like other people like on the ships next door are gonna see them and like know that like clearly They've never seen anyone here before so she's trying to like pretend like she's supposed to be there But like you just you just walk on board as if you own the place Yeah, because if you if you sneak around you make yeah, okay So here I kind of immediately like walks up the up onto the ship and like starts looking around trying to see a if anyone's watching Them and be like is there anybody still on the ship? Okay, so do you immediately like go below deck or yeah first thing the top deck is all clear yeah top decks clear hair is immediately looking for any kind of Control room or like on a ship to size let's say like a like a so one top is weird like essentially that's where you know The wheel is that's where you would drive it is up top.
There's no one there. I mean then there is a like a stairwell that goes below deck Okay, so up top it's clear. That's where they would drive. That's where you know anything hidden would be all be below deck So especially you with your knowledge of brass kill that's where they would have like essentially this is where you drive and down below is where you shoot Any documents hide anything else would be all that okay?
So she gets yeah, here I kind of gets to the top of the stairs and is kind of looking around for a second I think she kind of looks at flip and flop and thinks about sending them down first as bait but Like the second passes and she's like fine whatever and I think she She kind of readies her knife I think she doesn't have all she has a rifle which won't be any good Yeah, so she readies her kind of like big big knife and kind of with like a knife or you're talking about a saber Yeah, so yes Yes, it was a yep saber so she kind of like pulls her saber out from from where it's kind of here They're like yeah, she's and kind of like take it does a quick like prayer to insert deity here and just like goes down Well, hold on. I can I can check it out. She's like no she is like no, I'm not gonna send a kid down Let's just go. I'm used to slinking around I can I can hide It's like kind of on the fence because it's like no, I'm not gonna make a kid do it But on the other hand, it's like yeah, I'm gonna do it make a kid do it The kid is probably not gonna die a second time so during all this you hear a voice from below deck So to call out sort of a distance and it says hey Joe you there and someone's calling out for Joe I hear a freeze us.
What do you do? No, there's one guy's left I didn't Joe's day Hair up freezes and then is like Fuck it. She's she calls out. She's like hello Is anybody there and she's like like clearly panicking and so she like walks downstairs like hello I'm looking for somebody who who operates this ship flip heads back up to the top of the deck to not be a part of this Can you take flop with you?
Yes, we both like vanish when you ask these questions. Do you still have saber out at the ready or do you? Oh All these so good Saber saber quickly saber like she like tries to put the saber like back in the sheath and like really awkwardly like this is a couple of Times like yeah, and yeah like is awkwardly trying to not be really obvious about the fact that she was about to kill somebody Who was down below she's gonna change tactics like okay? Yeah, so she is gonna go into full like oops Have you seen my friend Mrs.
Beatty I'm surprising her and so she here's this and starts practicing his bow So she kind of walks downstairs to like kind of see who's talking and get a sense of and yeah And he calls up it so who's and you hear a bunch of like banging and rattling is he must be like working on an engine? He's doing something mechanical and you hear you hear clanking and moving about who is that who's here? Where's Joe and so she yeah, so she kind of walks all the downstairs to find him and says you like hello I my my friend sent me here. So his name.
I think we know like a friend of a friend. I think I talked to Joe I'm looking for yes I wanted to hire some transportation for for friend of mine And she kind of like looks down to see if she can find out if he's the only one or okay? We'll meet a deception check because you definitely weren't here to hire I mean at some point you just need to just start being mean and start coercing people clearly I Miss rolled so that's two. Oh, so what's your inception?
This is your own? Yeah, three zero, okay, so it'd be all green dice and then this guy was his always mistakes Oh, he's only got a power of one so purple dice Awesome great my my wilds. Okay Sounds good. Well, okay.
Let's see so I see two disadvantage one advantage. What's the last days? I have success. Okay, so you have a success and a disadvantage So I think you get stressed out a bit you take a point of strain as you're like in you know the heart of the enemy's base Lying but then you realize this this guy's just really dumb and you're able to convince him and he's like P.
Oh We don't know we should be telling people transport We don't transport people we just transport things for people so he may he may have misunderstood that Oh, I'm you know and she kind of goes on and like Praddles a little bit like oh, I'm so sorry But I just you know this nice young man Joe I talked to him and well I'm in town visiting my friend and we were hoping to do like a little bit of a pleasure cruise We were gonna do some some fishing and then also some sightseeing so and she's very like looking around like Oh, this is such a nice ship like while while that's happening I think he's going around and like closing down some hatches where there's like guns and not like various things that are Clearly weapons that he's you know hiding stuff, you know, it's very much like cleaning up the apartment when someone comes on You've got things up. Yeah, it's that but with a laundry. Yeah, so she's kind of like keep it So she's keeps on walking and she's just gonna walk right at him and just like oh is there only one way below deck Yeah, it's the one okay. It's the one stairwell and then you've gotten a vision so downstairs There's essentially a long passageway where you saw there's a bunch of like various weapons and you can see a way that they could like open up The side hatches to like shoot out side can't it's nothing on the front of the back Which is on the side whether essentially cannons or things to shoot large other ships that and then they're very back There's like another mini set of stairs that led to an engine room and he was he like climbed up from there But you see that's where the engine that is way way back down that second Look at the stairs.
So all right. So Hera is heading straight for this guy. She's not he's gotten out of that engineering And he's yeah, approaching it but then like hiding the weapons because yeah looks to not wear appearance It looks like a fancy vessel you take for stuff, but then he's trying to hide this back that there's a bunch of weapons here They're illegal so with that. Yeah, so without stopping.
She's just gonna walk straight for him She's she's talking all about like oh this, you know, this nice young man and well He very highly recommended your crew is there anybody? I mean you've done such a nice job with this ship. I can really see why Joe recommended it How many crew people would you because we don't want to but obviously we value privacy and so she's looking around and seeing if there's She can get a beat on anyone else. So she because she wants to be reasonably certain.
She's alone. Okay Perception check unless you have something else, but I think perception is good Yeah, so I got two levels of perception to be too Which is three so it'd be two yellows one green and then we'll make it a difficulty to purple so she always agreeing to add a Yep, if you want so you're doing the upgrade or you doing your thing where you like double the no I'm just at a story point. So then upgrade one of those greens into yellow and then Yeah, so now you're down to one So I think I want to see if I can ready so I got my saber Which I probably can't reach without being settled But I've got like a knife on my belt under my coat you've got a knife and a pistol and a pistol no not a pistol I have my rifle, which is obviously not gonna be helpful. Yeah, so I have a knife that had the pistols So without hesitating I want to see a he's really done because he hadn't noticed like the giant weapons But like I want it without stopping I want to see if I can just pull and ready my knife and Like put it up to his throat without without like stopping.
Do you have the quick draw talent? Yes, I do okay, so there's not gonna be a check for that so first off Let me just check what you can see with the ship no Add a difficult easy just really that time. Yeah, it's a terrible. Yes.
Oh god. Okay. All right, so we've got two success We've got two disadvantage and then one failure Okay, so the two disadvantage is gonna take you two more stress because again You're very much in the heart of the enemy base and you're fairly deep in now by yourself Um, so you realize that if you see anyone you'll be surrounded But with the two advantage or the two success You do see that there's no side passageways It's just this long hallway with all the weapons and guns and then there's that back engineering and as you approach him You'll get to that angry kind of see over the stairwell and you see into it and you see there's no one else there It's just this one guy and it is the other guy from the bar So this is him he's there and then with your quick draw as soon as you get a close you quick Plop the knife and then you hold it up to his throat. Yep So here I immediately so she gets the knife up and she kind of turns him around and like has a knife to his throat He's like, uh, uh, sorry ma'am.
What is it that you and she's just like hey flip I need you down here now and then so she and she just kind of I think before even your react flop here is that Tony Her voice and nose. Oh she's going down and he likes her spundling. Oh, okay Sure, he falls after flop. Okay So she she turns she kind of turns the dude towards flip and she's like there's nothing up upstairs No, and then she kind of looks at her new friend with the Impossible situation that he's suddenly found himself in and she says hi nice to meet you a quick question What does the ship do and what can you tell me about how to move it?
Roll me a course and check you get a blue dice because you've got a knife to his throat. Yes I'd like to also assist by peeling the skin off of my hand I'm sure she's got the knife and she's like he obviously can't see her But she's like looking at flip like rolling her eyes You got two blues on top. I so this is gonna be an amazing role because I have a two rank in coercion It's too young and then what's your skill and then what's your skill? It is will which is to so it's gonna be too yellow yeah, too blue and it's still based off of his whoop high which is one Perfect the students real fox the piss and so maybe yeah, so two six or two To advantage one success and one disadvantage so you do see but what does that advantage do first off?
So he I think and one basic suggestion is you realize your control situation can be stressed a little bit because you know that you're in the clear That's true. That's an option. Okay, so another idea go for it. Um, no, so here.
I kind of like shifts him around so that he is facing the wall and can't like see Anyone else like the entrance so he doesn't know if anyone else is coming and then she kind of reaches into her pocket And pulls out a kind of like a little bit of rope or whatever And just kind of grabs it his hand From and kind of pulls it behind his back and then like kind of grabs a better hold of his like wrist So she can kind of yank it up a little bit for some added leverage. Yeah Hold it you tie the rope to anything you're buying you just you're keeping hold of yourself. I've got it. Okay So yeah, what do you do you've got complete control situation?
You got this guy is back right up. So so she's like first of all Okay, what's your name front my my my name is Victor Boyer Victor great nice to meet you Victor quick question This is a brass guild ship, right? Yeah, yeah, this is a brass guild Thanks, Victor. I appreciate that.
So you want to tell me what this this ship which is listed as a you know pleasure cruiser looks like a pleasure cruiser So not a lot of guns Victor. I'm not really buying that where's it heading and who's the buyer because I'm assuming you're selling We we make we make runs to and from various vessels to the the tortoise. Um, we we we have guns and uh And he like I think he's looking around to see if he sees any of the like um, thanks the toys The chaocchis I don't know why I want to remember the name he's looking around and we sell these these toys the chaocchis Um, it's sort of a front, but yeah, we we go back and forth from and she cuts them off and she kind of yanks up his arm He can yeah, I've seen those those are cute not fun when they're being thrown at you though, huh? Victor yeah, you can punch him Like he's talking about the the chaocchis and flip just decks him in the side.
Okay I'm just punching him in the kidney hair is not expecting it only just a brawl check no difficulty Just I just want to see how much damage you do. Okay We're all in the combat. Okay, cool. So I've got one rank and then two greens here.
Oh my god. You might know how many Successes you get that is for success is three bonus damage. So if you just go basic roll It's gonna do it damage. Yeah, so it'll be based damage is your bran plus that so you would do six damage Yeah, I'm just so I kill him Possibility I'm looking that up now No, he's wearing salt smiles.
Oh my god. He's got these in bran. He's got some leather jacket on so you do you said six. Yeah, so you Bloody him you hurt him, but he's still like up.
He's like you know Shook in the I punched him in the kidney. Okay, so like he like reels over and then like I think it's arms get pulled a little bit too tight Because he sort of falls away from that internal bleeding though and like it hurts a lot and he like coughs a little bit of blood What are you doing with the chaocchis? We hare as like what the fuck would you not like and she kind of lose like regrips him again? Like what the hell I was trying to be nice to our good friend Victor here.
Oh, you're right. We're treating like a guest like a guest Obviously and she kind of like Pat's Victor on the shoulder with like a little too much force like okay. Thanks. Thanks Victor for your cooperation thus far Victor I want to be honest.
We want a peaceful solution to this and she kind of looks clearly very peaceful you Idiot child and so she's just like we peaceful solution. We're just you know, we're just trying to get somewhere you understand Who what do you know about the buyers on the tortoise? Are they brass guilds upper upper upper upper I don't know officers anything like that. What do you know the The tortoise is not the buyers the tortoise is the sellers we transport weapons and well the chaocchis from from there at the word She glares at flip like don't don't you do it?
It's this tightens up. Yeah, like servos like yeah, you can hear the metal grinding and And so we we sell weapons and the chaocchis various To buyers and to different vessels around a lot of people have need for various weaponry and this is a small fast ship We can get to places where he's kind of talking. Hera is kind of doing some some mental math in her head Trying to figure out the best course of action here. So obviously salt So speaking of salt, I actually want to see what all is going on.
Okay, cool So she like thinks of salt and we fade over to to the bar. What's going on? Yes? You guys got to the bar and I guess the question is what are you doing?
And there's gonna be some form of role to see how long he's distracted, right? So what do you do you get to the bar and we've backtracked a bit obviously So what's going on? So we get in there and like come on gentlemen right up to the bar and get a bartender Four shots of your absolute best Okay, so the bartender like comes at you and you're like, oh, yes, sir one second and he like turns away pulls out four shock glasses and pours in some Like fairly I mean, it's you know, it's hard liquor out on a ship. So it's not tasty liquor It's just hard liquor.
Oh, which kind of puts hair on your knuckle. Oh, exactly. Yeah, so yeah, he pours the stuff out And like you know pounds it down on the table and it sloshes a bit right then salt mix I was like gentlemen. Here's the freedom out there on those waters and they say I That's a long since I've had that kind of hard stuff another so I think salt's kind of hoping you can out drink them a little bit Okay, um Yeah, I had another idea, but it flew out of my head.
I hope I didn't need it. Okay Oh, we'll see how alcohol works for the strategy. So I think we're just going to have you the leader and then the grunts as a whole are going to roll What check would this be resilience? Oh, yeah, resilience.
I was gonna roll resilience checks to see who gets fucked up the worst and or the fastest And they okay, so that's based on run Check I'm gonna roll green is the leader and The minions are the purple. I'm gonna roll for them first Okay, so what they got effectively that that's successes. I'm just flipping everything So the minions got two successes and three advantage the leader got one success one advantage Now you roll yours with some of the dice we keep these we can reference so what first up what is giving you ranks I have no ranks and resilience, but I free-bron. Okay, so roll me three greens.
Okay, and then do you want to upgrade? I do want to upgrade but don't bother moving up and activate my special ability right and steal one back Okay, so you're your general is okay, so you've got two greens and a yellow. Let's see how you do to an image oh What happens is is uh, they both have more advantages than you or they both most success is than you right so Everyone gets drunk. Oh, yeah, but you get more drunk super drunk more fast Yeah, so what you know and you can kind of near the scene But like you definitely you pass that point where it's like I should have just stop here Right and then you were like they're not drunk enough yet, right?
One more round and you drink the round and at that round point they are not quite there and you are there So what do we see is salt is gone too far? So I think in his stupor he starts to talk about like some of the mishaps he's experienced out on the wild. She's like You ever seen a man Picked up to a rock with his insides ripped out Like and he's just looking at like and you're watching these these animals even you know just there's a laugh like that I have I remember Alan oh poor poor Alan just you know going on and on and on and on You know making it just a huge scene you make it very uncomfortable for these guys And they're they're you know tipsy, but they're not they're even a little bit drunk But you know well the guys drunk the guards are just kind of tipsy right and you kind of like they get sort of like freaked out by You know you're clearly very drunk and you want to get drunk because you know the leader was already kind of weary of you And now you're just you know fucked up. Oh, yeah, and yeah, and also sort of keep them out with like describing these weird grizzly deaths Right, right, right, right.
So I think they get to where they start to be like so we got to go And they start like going to leave the bar you're in a Or do you just I think I'm too drunk to try okay? Yeah, they leave and like the camera just sort of like slowly phase away as you're like sitting in the corner drunk and like rocking talking about Alan to yourself and probably still attempting to talk to them You know, right? They're gone and you know, right? I wish I'd never taken that job and then you know he looked up What I'm gonna have you do is roll those dice to see how much time is passed the higher the number the more time is Fast this is where you kill us Okay, so you did pretty good there.
So even though you did not keep them distracted you happen to take a long time to get drunk They were better at holding in but you at least everyone drank for a long time effectively, right? So cool, so you've bought them some time we cut back over to the crew is there like holding you think I wonder I wonder what salt's doing right now Well, yeah, well, I'm not sure Sarah like shutters mysteriously just thinking like oh, that's not good That feeling right like yeah, somebody's walking over your grave. It's like oh man. That's that's not a good feeling So here is doing her mental math being like, okay, so here are options were completely blown Victor is now an asset But you know the amount of time that he made like continues to be an asset You know ends when his friends get back and I know it like she really doesn't want to steal the ship.
She really doesn't She she kind of looks around like thinking and then comes to it like a decision Like what's gonna finally make her decision is like how much trouble are they gonna be in with the brass guild when they get caught? So she turns to Victor and she's like, okay, Victor this can go one of two ways We can either let you off now Or we wait a few minutes and we let you off in the middle of the ocean with your innards stuffed in your mouth, so Whatever you can do to not kill me would be very nice. Thanks Victor one thing to the players not this way to the characters They're since the fall of normal civilization. There isn't really electronic communications So if you're afraid of a phone call or an email that's not really a thing here So if you take off and you get there before anyone happens the brass guild there would not necessarily know what's going on Now eventually anyone you leave here is going to find a ship and come over So if you don't deal with the other three eventually it's gonna come back and bite you but yeah, but we have some but You know, there's four of them the ship is empty three left So if you want to be like super safe you could kill you could ambush and kill all of them Then you've got time until they realize I'm missing or if you just want to take off you've bought yourself time at that in I don't know about that Why would we keep this Victor was it?
My name is Victor sir, why would we keep him around? I'm good engineer. I can make the engines work I'm a good engineer. I mean that could come in handy And so she kind of is like like padding like Victor on the back like supposedly That engine it's been my baby for the last two years I is there like a bathroom like bathroom or something or like a cabin that she can kind of throw him in yeah There'd be a there'd be a cabin.
Yeah, okay, so she The stairs there were two rooms one to left one of the right you didn't look in them But like you open the room and there but you didn't really inspect them you just thought they were empty But there were two rooms at this beginning alright So she begins to kind of push Victor past flip to kind of towards those those rooms And she kind of keeps talking and looks at flip like so flip the way I see this our friend Victor here I have a couple of options as far as what he wants to do with his life and how long that life is gonna last I'll say anything to keep my life nice and long. Thanks Victor. I was talking. Oh, you don't get to talk right now Flexes his weird fingers so she kind of ducks her head into the the last cabin and kind of sees it like sits him down Like so yeah, there's when you get to the two rooms one of them is sort of like it was more long ways down the ship It looks to be a cabin or crew air space and the other people and then one of them is very much it's the captain quarters Okay, so she it's smaller, but fancier yeah in the crew cabin So she just kind of pushes him in like sits him down really roughly and then like ties take Ties him to something where he you know as best as possible under the circumstances that he can't reach anything She kind of ties his hands down.
You just find like a table something with the room. Yeah, or like a yeah But something like that. Um, so she sits him down and she's like, okay Victor My friend and I we're gonna have a quick conversation But the way that we're gonna decide you know what your future is and I think ultimately I think it's you deciding We're gonna play a game where you're very quiet and you don't say anything no matter what you hear right Victor And he just nods really big nods. He doesn't say where he just does like yeah, great Thanks, and she kind of like backs out slams the door and then like do you leave?
Yeah, we leave flop in there Okay, cool perfect and the gap flop flop like looking like you know He's like and she calls she calls through the door and she's like okay Victor So the game starts now, but just just so we're like completely on the up and up We're gonna leave our friend here just to just to keep you some company And it moves rip his throat out buddy And she kind of runs towards like the upper deck or I think actually the captain's quarters makes more sense because we're looking for Maps of some sort so Harris kind of immediately like okay, we have assume we have five minutes at most like we have no idea when they're gonna come back And so she kind of turns to flip and she's like look I need to go find salt whatever you do get him here We I we're gonna do this and this is probably the stupidest mistake I'm ever gonna make in my life But just do what you can to get him here and I'm gonna see if I can figure out where we're going okay And so she just like immediately starts like rifling through papers and like throwing things on the ground like well hold on like best case scenario They're all still at the bar and they're gonna recognize me worst case scenario I run into them on the way to get sold why I don't think that's gonna like We're gonna either we're gonna encounter them individually or we're gonna encounter them as a pair I don't see this happening as a three on three So like so here is kind of explaining yourself So so she's still rifling through papers and she's trying to figure out how to explain her mad plan and she's like okay I'm not leaving without salt because I don't fancy our odds No offense, but you and I are not gonna get very far if we get to this island and we're taking on the entire brass guild I don't want to leave him because he's my friend sure whatever and she just kind of rolls and like rolls her eyes and like throws Something over her shoulder like I think I quickly smashed cuts over to salt just like still in the bar like drunk talking That's Yeah, so she's like great either way, but like if we can get a hold of him without Alerting them that's great But I think the best we can prepare like the best that we can hope for is that we're prepared for an ambush So I'll do what I can to like share like kind of maybe like hold them off if they get back early But maybe we can cut get a shortcut get him on the boat and like just with a few minutes to spare Okay, so we'll try we'll go get salt and then maybe we'll try and pincer them on the boat just yeah Just run back. Okay. Do what you can make it up. Please don't die And because I mean it's all predicated on her figure out where the hell they're going and like how to run their ship anyway So so just confirm you are you are by yourself?
Yeah, so I had a slink off towards the towards the bar keeping an eye out for any brass guild I do will start with here. You're doing an investigation. Yeah, I was a roll on this case unless another skill makes more sense No, no, no sense to me. No, that makes sense.
So let's do Dada I'm doing ranks in investigation. Yep. I'm looking for it, but I'm failing to read Where's all the sheet? Where's it not?
I think it might just be perception. Oh, that would be a great two in perception with three cunning. Okay, so to be too yellow's a green It's only a difficulty one so one purple, but I'm going to spend a story point up here that's a red. Awesome.
Thank you Oh that red did nothing perfect. So we're doing Three success advantage. Okay, so with the advantage I think you find what you need almost immediately and then that sort of de-stress you They're like, okay, I'm good. I've got this you lose a point of stress if you've got it Because you realize you've got control the situation and what you find is because there are many different logs of like from the Tortoise to place a from the tortoise to place a place a you can know exactly where it's at because you've got all these different frames of Reference including to the ship and to the previous ship that you were the previous this vessel you were on so you know Pretty much exactly where this place is perfect so she yeah, Hera kind of finds the stack of documents and the map that she's looking for and she kind of runs up to She she runs up to kind of the steering and navigation equipment And she kind of starts to like see if she has the know-how Like if it's familiar to her and she can kind of get things running and direct it appropriately So things you know is you need to essentially do connect it from the port and then run the startup procedures Which is you know such a turn on then the entrance to what time to like crank into gear Um if I so I'm assuming what I need to do is radio into the the boatmaster or whatever What did you decide to was called?
It's kind of up to you if you that is the standard procedure if you want to go You want to go quickly you could just unhook unhook start the engines and go I think we have enough time I think we can here is okay So here is gonna like sure we got your space really really bet on the fact that she doesn't want to panic everybody and like Completely give away their lead time So she kind of is now I just take a few minutes for the end to start if you want you could start the engine run to the harbor master Talk to me like hey the ship is taken off But also the hard master recognizes you as the I believe ant to yes So but like who was asking about vehicles with the things named but so like there's no Okay, all right. I guess it's flop and Victor and I You're gonna take it with you the harbor master not not good odds. Um, and there's no like radio or like not. Yeah, well Whether be short time yeah, they're like a system of flags They would either be flags or a very short distance really there's no cross vessel communications that would all be done with flags Inside of this I guess there could be like a short term radio I so yeah, it's kind of up to you whether you want to just use a flag or because flags are the basic I'm okay.
I'm gonna add some some context here. So I So I find what I'm looking for I start the engine and I kind of enter some some I do some navigational magic I do ship stuff. Okay, see what yeah, yeah, I do ship shit. Yeah, I'm the ship ship I mean you know us ride ships, but our characters I have been on a boat before That's the extent of my knowledge, but okay, so Yeah, so like she she gets everything up and running Starts starts warming up the engines.
We'll say and then she runs downstairs She does a quick scan to make sure she doesn't see anybody kind of coming at moment Okay, so she runs downstairs to Victor and she said knocks on the door and says how you doing in there Victor? Good perfect say you wouldn't happen to know master vessels exit procedure You know and she knows that she's looking for something to like signal like they're about to leave and they want to like queue up for For departure. It's the green flag you wave it twice perfect. And so she like pulls out her gun Knowing that it's a horrible idea So she pulls out her gun kind of her rifle She she lines up and like shoots outside Up the hallway and like into the harbor like crossing her fingers hoping that like nobody gets shot accidentally and she's like so Victor Really really want to make sure you wouldn't be you know I trust you because you seem like a trustful person But that you're not lying right no no ma'am.
No, I know all right well Just know that please don't shoot me I'll be down right as soon as soon as I hear from the harbor master that we're ready to part Okay, she's just like you know just wanted to let you know friend yeah Nice yeah quick out to flip making his way over to the to the bar and here's the Cunch that you're like what you hear a gunshot and then how is it that you're going to the barn away to avoid detection? Are you just trying to be sneaky or just trying to run as fast as I'm trying to stick to crowds as best I can trying to like blend in okay and move quickly through it. Okay. Okay.
Rummy. I think that's why I think the most sense I was told I agree to like you know, oh if you're gonna give me the option to do skull dog. It's called That she is going to be a ship. Yeah.
Yeah, um, Rummy It's late evening. It's just too wonderful. The crowds are pretty pretty full right now boy Fuck three successes two failures nice. Okay, so you barely succeed So you you turn the corner you're following you're like going you know It's very much like a sad streak going from crowd to crowd no one sees you start praying out Yeah, you start praying like you just turned monochrome because no one can see Yeah, but you turn the corner and you see weird you see the three guards coming back salt is not in sight Fuck and we're gonna fare what happens in part three
