    Hey guys, apologies about the delay. I've been snagged up the last few days with both work related business and some mild personal stressors (nothing too too serious fortunately). Anyways, my post rate should be much better starting today. Thank you for your patience!!!

    Anyways... IC post coming now

    Just need to move things forward, I guess?

    Amusingly enough, a pack of rat-boys posed more of a threat to us than 3 armed gangers. But that's just me.

    I'm fine with that. I'll give it one day for any player to reply or try to do anything else (unless I hear from everyone saying to move on), otherwise, I'll move things on tomorrow.

    It's too bad Marcella doesn't have the ability to lay a hand on the hand and find out more about the owner.

    Should I just move things along???

    This introductory story is designed as a "one shot" so to speak, whereby I expect the players to get through it pretty quickly. I'd say depending on how things go the players are over 1/3 of the way through the story. So my plan was to give XP at the resolution of the story. And assuming players were interested in continuing to play, this game was going to set up further plot points for a more long term plot line as well as ideally introduce enough NPCs and side quests to allow the game to open up and become slightly more sandboxy.

    Hope that suffices.

    Well, that went as well as could be expected. Let's retreat and start spying on these guys. Maybe we can ambush one of their search parties and beat some leads out of them.

    Not to let anything get delayed too much longer. But I will give till tomorrow morning for people to speak up in protest of this plan... it seems like only a couple of players have weighed in, though it sounds like everyone is likely in agreement.

    Yeah we uh, might not have handled that well. But as I say now we can ditch our credit guilder disguises and start skulking around.

    Seriously. Marcella isn't the biggest talker or the most intimdating person or top DPS. But she one-woman ended the only combat situation and has been a complete human radar this whole time. And now she sweet-talks the essential NPC.

    Ya'll better start appreciating her . Though she is quiet and lurks in the background like most Psykers do, she has a) not blown anyone up with her brain and b) been nothing but essential for the groups progression. She is the unsung hero of this group .




    While listening to this.
