This is The Cynic, over...

Yeah good call. We agreed on 30% of remaining profits to be split among the crew if I recall? Or was it 20%?

This is Kanin, over...

Well, here it goes:

international QUOTE

While on Alell, Krakrefr helped with repairing the Wildcard, during the day, and during the night went to slums of the city and fought in the cages of the underground fights. It was the only way his Vargr skils could be honed and stay sharp. The pay was so-so, but usually he was good at it· mostly because of his fast reflexes rather than his strength. One night, when he entered the locker room after the fight, he sensed a familiar presense.
“I could smell you from the cage. Nice to see you back brother… ”, he said.
“I know. I wasn't trying to hide from you… ”, said a deep and heavy voice and another Vargr stepped out of a dark corner of the room. His step was a bit heavy and Krakrefr saw that his right hand and leg were metal, where part of his right body was synth-skin and his head had nasty burn scars. The rest of his black fur was short and he wore cargo pants and a padded vest. He was heavy built, unlike him.
The two Vargrs closed and clasped hands to wrists and hugged. Krakred sat at the bench and started pulling the wrapping from his hands. His fur was sweaty and sticked to the skin.
“You are a hard mutt to find, you know?”, the other Vargr said and lit a cigar.
“… What brings you here? What happened to you?”, said as he stopped and saw the damage on his friend.
“Well… the last job was not a good one. We were security detail in a forward expedition party and we stumbed into ambush by K'kree. Thanks for the army's medical plan.”
“I guess it was bad.”, said Krakrefr and got a towel to wipe out his sweat. The dust and the moisture of the underground room was not helping at all.
“It could be worse. But you know what? We found it! We found a city of the Ancients!”
Krakrefr's eyes widened and his ears rose.
“You heard me. A whole city, untouched… lost and forgotten!”
“... How?... Where?”
“I do not know much, as the labcoats had top-security levels and such. We went corewards, into the Dark and took us a bloody long time to get there. 50 scientists and psions, along a security detail of 30 Spec-Ops… and I am the only survivor… ”, the eyes of the other Vargr turned to steel cold.
“Sad to hear this brother… any known?”
“Nah, most were pups but good people. Anyway I am not here for this… I am for this”, he said and pulled something from his backpack.
It was a cube with sides of 30cm. Krakrefr hold it in his hands. It felt cold in his touch, smooth yet grainy in the light. He glimpsed tiny texts and geometrical formations along the areas of the strange cube.
“What is this?”
“I do not know. But they hunted us for this. We blew up the rest of the citadel, we left them nothing to find.”, the other Vargr made a pause
“... And you want me to watch it… ”
“... And I want you to keep it safe and hidden.”
“Where will you go now?”
“Back at home. The fighting days are over for me, time to settle and start a family. Train some pups in the academy too.”
“Listen, I have a crew and a ship. Why not stay tonight for a feast? Some are old soldiers, it will be fun. No K'kree there.”
“No brother, I have to go.”, his face was hard and somewhat depressive.
“Say hello to my pack, will ya? Till next time.”
“Till next time brother.”
They clasped their hands and the other Vargr left. Krakrefr sat there some time, watching the cold cube and sighted.
“Dammit Kvadrr, and it was such a nice night tonight… ” he thought and put the cube into his duffle bag.



Out of Character:
We were in Alell or Efafe? Got confused, since both cities were mentioned, just for continuity purposes. I think the 20% for the crew is adequate, at least till we get some proper equipment for the Wildcard.

Whatever Silver's cut of 20% is, he uses to continue in his investments when ever possible.

Nice story there, Morfeas. Lot more detailed than mine but of course Silver needs to continue to maintain a low profile.

The Referee relays...

I think this will be the third time I've requested this but…

international QUOTE
Shuth does need to assign the science skills to specializations. At the moment his character sheet just shows the points assigned to the general skill category; for example the skill 1 that he has for the physical sciences needs to be assigned to physics, chemistry, or electronics; the point in Life Sciences needs to be assigned to Biology, cybernetics, genetics, or psionicology; the point in the Social Sciences needs to be assigned to Archeology, economics, history, linguistics, philosophy, psychology, or sophontology.


Please do this and update your character sheet Until you do so all your Science task rolls will be treated as +0

The character does not gain a +1 in all Life Science skills. The point needs to be assigned to one of the skills within that 'cascade' or group. The life science skills that do not have a point in them are treated as +0; they can be used by the character but they do not gain the +1 dice modifier

Rebel over...

I'm not 100% sure what we are doing, besides making plans right now. Have we decided on an approach path? I know Aericsteele has given us all the information from our rolls, but what are we doing with that information? Ajit is good with the idea of dropping in quick and getting under the radar, then approaching the site and starting a search. I think someone, most likely Malcolmshaw, needs to post our final decision (As orders) and make it happen.

Er, Silver? Exactly where are we taking her in to? The city at the swamp edge, the native settlements in the area, or the crash site? As the TL's vary from 6 to 0 any floating cargo pallet will be a wooden raft - which reminds me:
Aericsteele - did we find an inflatable motor-boat while travelling here?

You end up putting down in a patch of solid ground that Maoikus is able to point out a few miles into the swamp.


My conclusions from this, puts us a few miles out from the crash site and native settlements.

In regards to the equipment being loaded onto The Wildcard once we have located it. It may be easier for us to fly The 'Card to crashsite and load it directly as opposed to dragging it back through the swamp.
