We are back playing Starforged with the one and only Allegra. How you doing legs?
I am doing a okay. I'm ready to be in space. It's space time space time
I
Am excited to play let me pull up what we did last time with
With Zakiya we got we did a lot. We created a whole alien race that lives in this sector
There's a couple of challenges. Yeah, the sacroshamu sacroshamu. That was it. That's their name
They come from the planet sacro and
We added Shamu just has a little stank on the end there
So we're reminded that they are orca people
Don't ever forget
Enemies of the whale. Yes, not really that enemies of the whale in a weird way
They worship the whale, but I'll I'll get to that in a second. So yes. Yes. Sorry. We started last session entering this sector and
and
We came to learn of the sacroshamu
They have had negative experiences with the jungle this big Amazon like space corporation that
Such net negative experiences. They decided to shut down the two star gates that lead to this sector
so they shut down one and they were just about to shut down the one that we entered from when we appear and
nadir
immediately laid into them with the the holy word of the whale and
Zakiya rolled really well because this sacroshamu
Kind of worship the whale too in their own way, so they had a very positive response to our appearance
they certainly liked that we stole a jungle ship a
shark-class ship and
The sacroshamu did
Promise to help us in our big goal of getting
Kind of a planet to ourselves a place that we could bring the iron landers to to live safely and
The only way they would agree to giving us whatever information they might have
Would be that we first have to retrieve a couriership of the jungle that is somewhere lurking around in this sector hiding from the sacroshamu
So if we can get it, they'll help us out
We went on that journey. We made that vow. We went on the journey and the first thing we ran into was a kind of like
Migrant fleet of jungle colonists apparently
We through roles decided that millions of colin colonists had once come to sacro and the shamu were not happy about it
And they nearly wiped them all out. So there was only a couple thousand left
But they needed help. They were damaged. They were injured. They were dying and we had to sacrifice some resources to
get
What we wanted to know from them, which was where was the couriership?
And they told us that the couriership had gone out to go bury the dead
There was a small planetoid nearby, right?
So they they're at some planetoid bearing the dead and some kind of ceremony and
Nader with his traumatized hate of the jungle
Says this is the perfect opportunity to get this ship. So we're gonna go after them
we did we the ship ran into a little bit of trouble took a little bit of damage and
We decided in game that the the
Reprocussions of that was that the couriership is now aware of our presence
Maybe they don't know everything, but they you know something blipped on their radar and they are wise to us
So Legger, I'm gonna hand it over to you. It looks like you've got an idea. What are you thinking? Great?
I'm just gonna say right now. You're gonna have to call me on not being a good like not being sweet
You're and I know it and that's fine
I'm gonna need you to think back to the the meanest time the time you were the meanest the time you accidentally stepped on a ladybug or
The time you accidentally burped in someone's face. You know, I mean the meanest you can think Allegra
I've been meaner than that. I'm not like sweet all the time
Look, you don't have to put on a show for us Allegra. We know you're the sweetest person in the world
I can be
There you go, that's the attitude I'd like to think that's what nater sounds like to
Sorry, I'm really
So my question as we begin this is so we stole we stole a jungle ship like we we have
Yeah, we have specifically a kind of like like a fighter class. I got like a like a it's a big
It's kind of shark-shaped and it's big enough to house like maybe 20
Iron landers kind of operating it. Um, but it's like a it's like a it's like a ship you fly in like attack somebody and run away
It's not super strong. It's not super fast. It's kind of in the middle, right? Okay
Does it still have the jungle like?
logo definitely definitely
Okay, is there any reason they should assume we're not jungle? I I don't think so
At least not at the moment, especially if you're all wearing uniforms and going, you know trying to deceive them in this way
Brilliant fantastic. Lovely. Okay. So that's my that's my goal is I want to get down and get down there and be like, hey
Friends, gotcha. We are comrades
That makes the most amount of sense now we have four progress in this
task of finding and returning the couriership
I think that maybe the overall
Uh progress is that we also have to get that couriership back to the sacroshamu
So four progress is about halfway to completing our goal if you wanted to say
Yeah, we pull up to this planetoid now. That's fine
But you're saying you want to
deceive them in some way you're I feel like either facing danger or
Uh compelling
Using uh shadow is is probably the most sensible thing. Yeah, I think it's definitely shadow because it's
Just bold face lines to their face
And and if we roll well on this we'll count this as progress
We'll we'll get ourselves a little closer to completing this task. So we are going to
compel
Um, you're going to lie and swindle. So go ahead and roll shadow
I don't I'm really afraid because Zach rolled so well last session and I don't think I'm worried
She may have rolled all the good stuff out of it now. Now real quick. Let's look at your assets
Yes, I forget that we share a share a character sheet
We always do
I'm just trying to make sure there's nothing with compel
Um, you could try to instead secure an advantage
Uh, for instance under explorer if you study a new found place
Uh, oh or under devotant if you secure an advantage by talking about your god
Or or you know calling to your god in some way you could also secure an advantage that way
I don't
I think they're kind of in direct opposition to each other both of those options
So I think if we if we went down and talked to them
It would have to be lies first and then immediately into have you heard about the whale?
And I don't know
I think I want to secure an advantage now that I think about it. Okay, I'd rather like watch from a distance
see what's up
And then if they if they see us we can be like hey, man
We were just fixing our fucked up ship because the ship's all messy right now. I hear you
I hear you on that one. What's cool about this is that uh, you'll roll plus one
when you secure the advantage and
A strong hits going to detail something about the location that we can use to our advantage. So let's uh do that
So what stat are you using edge heart iron shadow or width if you use shadow you're using deception stealth or trickery
Check this could make sense stealth. Yeah, like stealth like you're trying. I'm trying to do it
I want I'm trying to not be seen so let's go shadow plus one
I get a plus one. Okay. All right. See how you do. Let's keep our fingers first roll of the game. Yep
We can't I'll take it that is a good. That's good. All right
You are securing the advantage on a weak hit you can choose one you can either take plus two momentum
Or plus one to your next move
Okay, so
Now we now the only catch is it can't be a progress move. So if we if we compel
And we succeed we can't actually make progress
I don't think we're gonna really use that plus one. So it's got to be like a um
face danger to try to get down to the planet maybe or
Gather some information about the location
So basically what this one I think what this role just decided is that we do get into like a stealthy position
And now we can possibly gain ground or or make some kind of move
Okay, um
then I
Think i'm gonna think ahead and take the momentum rather than the plus one
You're gonna add plus two to your momentum six or seven now sweat
Um
We're in a stealthy position. Maybe like there's like a little
Meteor or something that we're hiding behind star war style. What's the next move? What are we trying to do?
um
so
We did from the we did end last session with the with the
Couriership aware of us. They might be sending a signal out
Yeah, I was just about to say are they are they trying to contact us?
Maybe they don't see us anymore, but they are trying to contact us. Do you want to reach out to them?
Huh
I mean we are coming in with the disguise
Yeah, we're coming in with the disguise already. So I think I think
Like I think it would be more suspicious if we didn't respond
Okay, and if we want to keep the ruse going we have to respond gotcha
um
We can compel them
You just
We can't count it as progress
Because of the way security advantage works
Right. I've probably done this wrong in the past many times, but um
I think that's what it means. So we can definitely compel and that'll move us forward, but not necessarily the progress forward
Right, let me see
No
I'm just looking at all of the things we can do
Yeah, I don't think any of those are super useful right now. So we're just gonna I think I think just I don't even think it's
It's trying to convince him of anything right now. I think I'm just trying to make
contact
all right
I think you're I think your instinct is right that
Doesn't need a role. You have a jungle ship. You have the right like, you know
Encryption to send and share between the two of them
They probably become aware that you know, you are a jungle ship
I'm sure they'd be curious as to why you're here and what the story is like
Do you think they would invite us down to the surface? Do you think they would we could ask the oracle to find out like what they want?
Let's ask. Let's ask the oracle. I'm always a fan of leaving it up to the universe. Me too. So 51 or greater
What's the better outcome that they that we go to them or that they come to us?
I
Think
I think the better outcome is that we go to them. Okay, we'll have a little just because we'll have like time to plan and like
Get things in order where if they come to us, it'll I mean, I guess we'll still have time to plan
I would argue our ship is probably
Outgun, you know out matching theirs
Because they have a courier ship while we have like a fighter type ship. That's true. That's true
Then yeah, let's say let's say that they come to us then. Okay
so
Is the is the better outcome so 51 or greater they say
Okay, we'll come to you in a moment once we once we're finished with the dead. Yeah, let's see what happens
74 in fact they uh, you don't even have to compel them to do that because that's what they want to do
They say yeah, we'll be up there in a minute. They're probably a little bit scared
There's this implication I think in one of the sessions that we created that that it's like kind of like a uh, what's the word?
When like during the crusades and uh the inquisition, you know, it's almost like an inquisitor type
Uh ship, you know what I mean, right? Like it's not it's not a good thing to see one of the ships
So so maybe they're a little nervous or something that you've uh that you've shown up
Either way, they're gonna come towards us. Do you want to do anything special?
To prepare
Like what what would nader's plan be?
They're gonna see us. They're gonna come close. We probably want to possibly dock with them
But we've got to come up with an excuse too as to what we're doing out here
uh, well, I think
Uh, a kind of just like face value thing would be would be to tell a partial truth
I mean like the best lies are based in partial truth. So you can be like
Yeah, there's these the shamu folks that they're you know, they're they're piss you're around
So like we need to we need to link up so that we can we can like
formulate a plan
Maybe even like, you know, we're the rescue party. We're here to like get everybody out of the sector. Exactly. Okay
Feels like a compel
Right. You're compelling them basically to dock with each other
Yeah, or
Are we compelling them to just like follow us?
Um
Yeah, I mean
I mean, there's no reason
well
I'll say this if we compel them successfully
To just follow us and we start leading them towards the sacro shamu
That's definitely progress that we can mark. Yeah, and and you know, maybe we can maneuver it where the sacro shamu kind of intercept us and
Take them and that's it. Yeah, that might it might also be easier if we don't directly interface with them to contact
The sacro shamu and be like, hey, they're coming. Get ready. Okay. Okay. All right
So let's compel them to follow us. You're lying. So you're going to roll with shadow
Uh, no plus one
Nope
Let's go
Another week hit. Okay
On a week hit, they'll do what you want, but their agreement comes with a demand or a complication
Envision their counter offer
Could could be that they want to help the
The the the colonists could be that there's something wrong with their ship. What are you thinking?
Uh, I think there there might be like
Something wrong with the ship. Yeah, where they're like, yeah, you can like your ships fucked up our ships a little bit more fucked up
Can we do you guys have anything that any like supply that we can
Use to patch things up or or like
Or they like or or they had like
Some specific
Item that had to be left with one of their dead that they're like, okay
We need this but we couldn't take it away from this person
I'm not sure what that would be. Well, here's the interesting challenge is that our supply nator supplies currently at one
Yeah, that's also a problem. So we don't have a lot to give
Um, I still like the idea that that's what they want. It would make sense
you know, maybe instead of uh where the colonists had a lot of um
Damage and needed a lot of uh, like uh medical attention. Maybe these guys just don't have food or something
Yeah, yeah, yeah
They might demand like hey help us get some food or
something
um
Maybe they say our food replicator is broken and you got to send somebody to fix it
That would make sense. Yeah, that definitely I like that
But then we have the problem that it's just a bunch of iron landers. They don't know how to they might know how to fix it
But I don't know to say
Are there is there anyone that's chef reggie over there and he's like hey, I got you guys. It's fine
I say chef's wedgie
What reggie what was the name reggie reggie reggie, okay
I don't know why I heard wedgie chef wedgie
I yeah, I kind of want to use that name but that's okay. We'll figure that out. Um, let's give you your next one shot dnd
A character wedgie. Yeah
So I like the idea of
The fact that they you know, we're starving
We need you need to come here and fix our food replicator or whatever it is they use to create food
But we're iron landers who don't necessarily know. Is there anyone aboard the ship right now?
that
Knows or has learned from kb how to replicate or how to fix the replicator
Um, I think it's unlikely unlikely. Yeah, I was gonna say probably not but maybe so let's real quick
Let me look up what that is in uh the oracle. It's 76 or greater. So yes, if it's 76 or greater
Let's see
A d100 for the folks at home
Uh
I'm trying to fix the thing there it goes now. It's visible. So we rolled a hundred. So that means yes chef wedgie
Uh, it says I could do this
That's what his brother calls him is chef wedgie
I mean, I wouldn't put it past an iron lander to be named wedgie
Uh, kind of reminds me of wedge antilles, which makes me like it even more. Do you know who that is? Yeah, yeah
Okay, so we'll say that wedgie, you know puts his hand up and offers to fix it. Um
Wedgie
Is dressed like the jungle so he at least has the costume on but there's some kind of
I like to think it's a little bit too big on him
Like it doesn't it's not like as crisp as it should be
It's just like hangs off his shoulders a little bit and he's got like little sweater paws going and maybe he's still like, you know
A iron age like iron lander where he's just like dirty like he hasn't showered or anything
Uh, or he has like flecks of iron on his cheeks. So, uh, maybe he's got dreads or something too
Does he have a chef hat alegra?
51 or greater
No, no, no, you said absolutely not absolutely not. Okay. All right. He doesn't need ridiculous headwear to
To denote his status with his roof. So, um, let me think about what we have to do here
There's some kind of subterfuge going on here. So we
Are definitely facing danger
Uh, maybe using shadow as as trickery, you know what I mean? We're trying to trick them into thinking everything's a okay
Um, if you want you could face danger. Otherwise you would be come
I don't want to roll compel
I feel like face danger makes sense. Face danger makes the most sense. Yeah, let's do it. You're gonna face danger using shadow
I don't think you've got any pluses for that unfortunately. We just have how
How does momentum get used? I never understood the way you can use momentum is that if you roll poorly
if your
If your momentum is higher than your result, you can use the momentum instead and it usually like takes it from a weak hit to a
strong hit or
Aha
Yeah, I was always confused by that. Thank you. All right shadow. Let's go
Yet another with the power of shadow. I mean zakiya did almost the entire session with a weak hit
I'm so scared that there's something broken
Uh, she got one miss. That's why I'm thinking it's fine, but
I don't like all these we're gonna get a big miss at a really crucial point and it's gonna fuck us up real good
All right, so we are facing danger using shadow. We got a weak hit you succeed
But at a troublesome cost you must make a suffer move
So we can decide what that suffer move is
but
Remind me what we're even trying to do. I I just kind of blanked on what that is fixing the food replicating
That's right. So so wedgie goes in
And he's like change his name fully to wedgie
intentionally on both of our
He's just kind of like biting his tongue, you know, they're asking him questions that he doesn't understand, you know, it's just the worst
situation he's probably like like I I feel like
Nader has like taken him under his wing these last few weeks and has been like look here's how you fucking lie to people
Right and he's like and he's like super standoff. He should like very gruff and surly
They're like we just got to leave him be because he's from the spooky ship, right?
He does fix the replicator, but what is the complication?
They want to check his papers or they ask him a question that he can't answer, you know the way the
My instinct was he fixes it too good and they want to keep him
That's interesting. It'd be a hell of a power move on their part, you know, because we're we're kind of the more intimidating group
I I'll run with it if you want to do that
I I don't know how like actually, uh, viable that is
um
Or he's so good. We want to keep him. They're like, hey, can
Can he stay on the ship all on our ride back home?
Yeah, like could he just like stick around for a while?
We've got a couple other things that are busted in the food in the in the food prep area
Like he he fixed this so quickly. Maybe he can take a look at these as well and he's just so damn charming
Okay, all right, I think that's a fun complication. They don't want to let him go
Um, I would assume nadir doesn't want to rock the boat too much
So is nadir okay with this or do we want to try to compel them to give him back?
I think
I don't want to lose wedgie. Allegra. I don't either. I feel like nadir, uh
I think he tries to play the part of
Of inquisitor as you were saying as the ship might be and he tries he tries to like like power move them back and be like
Fuck, you know, he's ours. Okay. Okay. So we're just gonna have to try to compel them
Um, you told me to be mean. I'm being mean you're being you know, this does mean threaten or incite which requires you to roll iron
Not your best rule not your best stat
Unless you can think of a way to lie to them
You could say, you know, if you want to try to lie to them and say wedgie has ibs and it's flaring up these days. No
poor guy
Um, wedgie doesn't care. He just want to be with these people
which
Honestly, you just want to come home and make iron lander meatballs again. You know
wedgie has diarrhea
All right, so you're going to lie to them using this excuse
I mean, it's a it's a good excuse. No one's ever gonna be like prove it prove you have diarrhea right now
I I'm hoping wedgie can do that if he needs to but you're gonna roll with shadow for this
Let's see. It always comes down to this with you. Allegra
Getting real sillier. What terrible body humor
I'll remind you that Allegra was a strong hit with a
Yes
Yeah, um, you you tell them
That that you killed like many of our npcs you've launched them out into space
Look chad wanted to be out there with the space shotgun
So, uh, um, there we go. They're like ill. No, we don't want wedgie around if he's
Got ibs our uh our porta johns are acting up and he's gonna stop them all up or something
So wedgie comes waddling back onto our ship
I think wedgie's a really small guy honestly. I think he's really like scrawny and little and he's
He looks like he would have diarrhea is what you're saying
I can't get off
So they're convinced, um, he's back and
I'm I I forgot to mark progress a long time ago. Uh, we need to do that
Um, we have compelled them to follow us
Uh, we'll say that this is too full progress. So we're now six out of ten
To bring this bad boy home
So thank you diarrhea
Uh
Keeping the entire galaxy separated from each other diarrhea
Uh, okay, so we need to take these guys back to the sacroshammo
We've they've agreed to come with us thinking that we're just escaping the area or something
Um, we're leading them towards where the where the stargate was probably yes
So I think we need to undertake an expedition
Mm-hmm, and a successful one would mean that we get probably within range of the sacroshammo we can mark progress
Yeah, all right. I would agree with that. So
undertake
diarrhea, I mean an expedition and
We will see what happens
I'm so sorry. I turned your very cool space show into fucking nonsense every time I'm on
Uh
Undertaken journey
Yes, I'm sorry. I I forgot that I have to tell you
There's edge shadow and wits those are the three that you can choose
You can move with speed under the radar or vigilant
I think
I think vigilant. I think we're trying to like
maintain
A facade and that that like requires watching our every move
Very specifically watching their communications. Yeah, right. Okay. Um, go ahead and roll wits
We hit nice on a week hit you reach a waypoint
Uh, but this progress does cost you
You can choose one you can either face apparel, which is just a d100 roll or you have to make two suffer moves
I mean, it's gotta be it's gotta be face apparel. All right. First thing we're gonna do is I'm gonna mark our progress. So that's another
Two we now have eight out of ten
This is very close. We could if we wanted to make our next move a
Complete a journey or some equivalent progress move
Uh, but first let's roll the d100 to find the the peril that we uh, well, I'm sorry the uh
Yeah, did I get that right uh face apparel. Yeah, so let's roll a d100 53
on a 53
Old repair or patch fails
An old repair or patch
fails now this ship
Has only really seen damage from some recent debris that we flew through
That you know called the tension
The only other thing I can really think of is um
The ship was once basically kb like took over this ship
Yeah, so an old repair might be that like maybe the old ai or the or the old uh like
Automated met controls like take over or something. Yeah, they're trying to like glitch through
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So if you like that idea if that happens, um
You know somehow like we lose kb for a second and the ship kind of
Is acting up maybe even starts flying funny. We have to make some kind of move to get back into control
Um
What moves do we have right now?
I think
Would that be like securing an advantage
To when you assess a situation make preparations or attempt to gain leverage
Maybe honestly, it would be like if you're trying to just gain leverage on solving this problem
You'd still have to roll for the problem. I mean, it's as simple as just rolling face danger
Otherwise, um, there are
Oh, I'm sorry, we do have to make a suffer move. So maybe that's what it is is we can endure stress
But I thought it was I thought it was we had to either
face peril or
suffer
Yes, uh, thank you for
Reminding me to check that. Uh, so face peril envision what you encounter
We we encountered that an old repair is a problem. Okay, you're right. So
The the issue is is that the ship is acting up
I still think we need to make some kind of role to like solve this problem
could
Could okay, this is this is literally self sabotage, but could that's what this game is all about
Yeah
Could the ship's ai be trying to send out like a like a hey, this is an us kind of message
Like sure we've been taken over like like a like a last like a last sos
Kind of yes, uh, do we I guess do we want to face danger a mayday if you will
You'll say it here, but you won't say it on the on the game show
I chose it motherfucker. All right. So I think we should just face danger. Let's um
Are we doing this uh
With aggression with stealth
Deception we're trying to keep this covert or are we using our expertise focus and observation to keep it from getting out
It's either
Covertly trying to like keep it hidden or its expertise. Um
I think you I mean if you want to roll shadow, I think that's fair
Yeah, I think I think we're trying to like keep it on the dl as much as possible. All right
Roll with shadow to face danger
Let's see better. Oh well. Oh you didn't nope. No
I knew I knew it was gonna happen at like a really important time. Okay interesting on a miss
You fail or a momentary success is undermined. You must pay the price
Give me another d100. Let's find out what that price
Might be
D100
All right, I knew this is gonna happen 96 nine to six
Uh
Roll twice. So please roll two more d100 and they are both a result
Oh, I hated uh, this is the Allegra special
Yeah, 99 and 12
Which means you need to roll two more times. Yes
Looking this is hilarious. This is about to get crazy
Okay, so a 12
I knew this is gonna fucking happen a 12 and 86 and a 20
Okay, 86. I'm just writing these all down
um
And finally a 20
Uh, okay, uh, so a surprising development complicates your quest
Um, that is the 26 we rolled
The
Yes, the 86 is you are stressed
Yeah, and then the 12 is you have a tough choice
So there is a surprising development
Uh, uh
That I think complicates your quest. Yeah complicates your quest
Yeah, uh, you have a tough choice and you are stressed
What do you think that
Tough choice that is a surprising development
That you will suffer stress from might be I have some ideas, but I want to hear what you've got to
To say I mean, I think I think the the message gets out like it gets past all of our attempts to keep it
Keep a lid on it. The message gets out to the other ship
All right, and we either have to
Turn and fight them now or wait or like
Potentially let them get away
That's where I went but also I'd love to hear what you had in mind
Definitely it reaches the couriership
Uh, they can tell there's something wrong something's acting up
And we miss so maybe even the ship isn't is still not in our control
So what would be the tough choice the tough choice
Wouldn't be to just let them go away because it's kind of almost out of our
Hands at the moment. Yeah
the tough choice would be like
Um
The tough choice could be like we're going to self-destruct the ship. No, no, no, I I shouldn't go there. Um
Tough choice might be we we have to
Like there's some kind of sacrifice we have to make like
Maybe the decision is we have to attack them now. We do have weapons that we can use
Yeah, but the tough choice is something we've got to sacrifice something and this stresses us out
Maybe it's like the last of our supplies like we don't have any more supplies like these are the last of like
Uh, the last space shotguns if you will
But we're not boarding them like we would have enough missiles and lasers and all that kind of stuff
You know what I mean, that's right. I forgot we were like outfitted. Yeah, we're not a pirate ship
We're not boarding them or anything. Yeah, um
um
Maybe we can make some roles here
Just to kind of like yeah, let's let's let's figure this out
Uh, let's make some oracle rolls. Let me pull it up
um
Now there are
action theme descriptor and focus
Do you which of those tables would you like to roll on first? Let's do action first. Okay, roll a d100
Um
95 why 9 to 5 rolling high um threaten
So the action is some kind of threaten
Okay
And then what was it theme a theme yet another d100? Yeah, let's do theme
I actually think I might have an idea but let's see what this theme turns out to be
11
commerce commerce is threatened or
Threatening commerce is coming for us. Um
I mean, I mean the jungle is commerce, right? Right? Um
You have a tough choice tough choice
The tough choice could actually be run if there are like backup jungle ships like if we think of that
Yeah, a part of me was also thinking what if the sacroshamu are showing up, but they're just like shooting indiscriminately like
That would I think that would make a lot of sense too is like
They're not they're not like attached enough to us to not try to hit us
but
They're they're they're more concerned with like the couriership than anything and we're kind of in the way
Gotcha, um
This is now the choice is like do we fight and possibly get hit or do we get out of the way?
and like kind of run
Eli says or they turn back, but we haven't established that they've shown up
We were trying to bring them the couriership was trying to we were trying to bring them to the sacroshamu
um
Let's well, I think I think a question we could roll with is like did we actually get a message out to the sacroshamu?
To say like we're on our way and that might that might lead us to
I like that in the meantime while we're still thinking about this. Let's roll to endure stress because that is for sure
something we have to do
Um
We're in a precarious situation where
You uh do not have any spirit
No, because you are uh traumatized
because of that
When you face mental strain
um
On a miss is worse than you thought but if your spirit is you're okay if your spirit's zero
Or you choose to resist the stress roll spirit or heart whichever is higher. I think your heart is higher. Just roll
We have nothing in spirit a strong hit
Strong hit very nice on a strong hit you can choose one either shake it off
Um
Or embrace the darkness
Now you didn't reduce your spirit. Can you reduce your spirit? Let me see if you can go into the negatives with spirit
No
So, uh, we'll just say that really your only option is to
Embrace the darkness and take plus one momentum
Yes, it goes up
And actually, um, I forgot uh because of we used one of our assets before so you should be at nine actually because
We get an automatic plus one when we succeeded on that
Nice, so we've got nine right now
Uh, all right, so we endure the stress. Um, we managed to maybe, uh,
You know survive the first barrage of attacks
But we're still kind of in the middle of it. Yeah, we have the tough choice of
Do we fight the sacro chamo?
Uh, uh, do we try to fight the courier ship?
What do you want to do? I also would argue we might not have total control of our ship at the moment
Yeah, I was gonna say is there a chance that like we are we're fighting for control of the ship
All right now. I think securing an advantage makes sense because if we can
Then we can get back on track. So, uh, if you want to secure an advantage
and remember you have two assets where if you somehow
Incorporate your religion into this you can get a plus one
It's as simple as possibly praying to the space whale. I was gonna say can we pray to the space whale? Yeah
So with that said what at what attribute are you using?
Uh, maybe wits
Wits I was gonna say wits or heart because we're like praying to the
Trying to trying to influence the will of the whale as the keya called it
That's right the will of the whale is trying to remember that uh with resolve command or sociability is how you would use heart
So you're maybe interpreting this as nadir is kind of really hands on with folks trying to get them to do
What is necessary?
Whale take the wheel exactly
All right, roll heart. Uh, and if you and if you invoke the religion you can add plus one
All right, I'm going to
Just pray to the to the giant whale
Strong hit baby. The whale is good
The whale is with us
On a strong nadir fully like is like the way the will of the whale is with us and like is like
Right
On a strong hit you may take both you can gain plus two momentum. So that means uh, you go all the way to 10
And you can add plus one to your next move
What is going to be your next move that you you get control of the ship
You have control again. Oh, thanks parker for subscribing to us. Hey, thank you. That's so cool of you
Uh, so we're up at 10
And a plus one to our next move which is going to be
We're gonna turn and shoot the fucking couriership. All right. We're going to finally enter the fray here sounds like make some combat
Uh, let me pull up the combat. Here we go. We're entering the fray
Uh, you are attacking
I would say it
Not close quarters. You can either roll you can either attack on the move
Facing off against your foe with heart
um
Preparing to act against an unaware foe. No or caught in a trap. No so really rolling edge or heart makes the most sense
um
I mean, I think I think nader's still riding high from that from that whale will being
Given to us
So I think it's a very like brothers two arms five
Gotcha as we go in so it's I get a plus one on this one
Uh, because you're entering. Well, I don't oh, that's right. You do because of the strong of the last strong hit
Do it plus heart plus one
strong man
Good rolls on a strong hit
You can take both you can take plus two momentum and you are in control. So you maintain initiative
We're we've still got tons of momentum. So we don't have to worry about that. Yeah
Um, but here we are in combat. Um, I'll say that the ship is strong enough that we don't
I don't know if we have to extract this all the way out to a big battle
Like the couriership can totally get pummeled by us. So we're going to either
Echo shimu are like coming in too true
Um, you're in a bad spot. No, uh, we're in control. You can assault a foe
Um, or we can try a battle which is
Something that happens in a blur envision your objective and roll. So this is kind of more of just like summing it up
Yeah, so with that said, what is the tactic? What does the battle look like and then we'll roll for it?
um
I think it's
I think once we get control of the ship we pull like a crazy Ivan and we like
Loot backwards and try and like
Bookend them essentially with the sacro shimu
And like and and stop them from getting from like turning tail
um
So is that that that feels like a is that battle? I guess
Well, I think so because a battle can it can be a combat that's kind of like summed up in one role
Um, I see no reason why we shouldn't use battle
Um
Unless there's something you think fits better. No, I don't think so. I think it makes the most sense. So we have
Fighting at range you'd be rolling with edge
Fight depending on your courage leadership or companions. You'd roll with heart
Okay, uh, if you use trickery to befuddle your foe you could roll with shadow or tactics you'd roll with wits
um
I think it's either courage or
tactics
because we're because we're kind of like
Looping up behind them and coming to like pins or memen
I I could I would argue you could also use shadow because you could do it where like
Maybe you were blocking their view and like the moment you flip around like you were feeling the sacro shimu barrage
That'd be pretty cool. Yeah, let's do let's do that. All right. You're gonna roll with shadow
For battle did I say you have plus one on this or no? Did we already use that?
I don't we already use that last roll on that strong head
Another strong hit
Amazing ila uh allegra. Okay, uh, so here we go you
Rolled a strong hit. Uh, you achieve your objective
Unconditionally you and your allies who joined the battle may take plus two momentum. So you have all this momentum
You're never going to use ending momentum
but
you
Defeat the couriership now does defeat
Does nadir does defeat for the couriership being complete annihilation or does nadir try to spare them?
I don't think he would he wouldn't he wouldn't try to spare them
I wonder I wonder if he would take his lead from the sacro shimu though
Uh, because they're the ones that wanted the um true
I guess what we should ask the oracle is will the sacro shimu destroy it or will they try to capture it?
Yeah, because I I think I don't think I don't think I think he realizes that the
Uh, the connection that he has with the sacro shimu is more valuable than like
Fucking obliterating them totally because they're part of the jungle totally
Actually, actually you put up an interesting point because he is traumatized. So let's let's decide one thing at a time
I think it's likely that the sacro shimu want to take the couriership alive. So roll a d126 or greater
That is in fact true
To grab an interesting situation you're oh interesting
Oh, I was hoping that they did and then maybe we roll to see if nadir like still attacks them
But they don't they don't care they they
They are fine with destroying them now. Let me ask you this this couriership might have
important information that we could extract
Yeah
Does would nadir have the self control to possibly
You know ask the sacro shimu. Hey, let me hang on to these guys
Let's roll another another oracle. I think all right. I think it's unlikely that he would want to yeah
I wish there was like a halfway point between unlikely and 50 50, but there's not no no
So, okay, it's unlikely 76 or greater. Yes
He wants to hang on to them or yes. He wants to destroy them. I think it's oh, yes
He wants yes. Yes. He wants to hang on to it. Yes because it's unlikely. Yeah only d100
Let's see
Three nope. No, we we completely vaporize them
Just like battle like
Red rage
Just gone
I like to imagine like, you know, we like the old pirate ship movies where there's two ships and one in the middle
And they're just getting you know, it's getting pummeled right in the middle
or like in the in the robin hood movie when
Uh
The what's his name king john gets like the the swirly eyes. Oh, yeah
He was mad during that he just gets the swirly eyes and that's what I'm thinking about but like in red
Uh, all right, so we've we've destroyed this couriership
Nice a question comes to mind does nadir tell them about all those colonists
Eh wasn't that wasn't part of the deal wasn't part of the deal
um
nadir does have this kind of trauma though where he just really hates the jungle
I think it's like I forgot they were
Yes
Oh, yeah, then for sure roller d100 26 or greater. Yes. He does tell them about
the uh
Yeah, oh, yeah, we're gonna go get this
So he's gonna tell them, um, we don't necessarily have to stick around
Uh, we certainly don't necessarily have to help them. I mean if we did help them
I would I would make us roll something to like
That would like drive somebody crazy in in a certain way. You know what I mean?
Like at a certain point the tribe might even be like, whoa, bro. Like let's chill
You got to chill out man. Yeah, um, maybe we do want the person who kept the alien around
Okay, so
They know about it, but do we first want to ask a favor of them? Do we first want to?
Uh, actually here's here's what I'm realizing
Um, we
Have eight out of ten on our progress
Perhaps destroying the ship not add progress to it
It's part of it
I think I think that we can say that the ship is destroyed, but we should roll, um
To complete this vow and that might illuminate something that we're not thinking about in terms of maybe the sacrosanct who are angry at us about something or something
So roll 2d10 and we want at least one of them to be above eight
Above eight
Above eight because we have eight progress on our that we wanted to be below eight
We want I'm sorry eight or lower. Okay. I just want to make sure
Would thank you
Would the destroying of the ship give us another point of progress?
Uh
Yeah, I guess I guess
I'm grasping for anything because I feel a bad roll
Well, let's see. We did we did battle and it was a strong hit
I'm looking at combat because I do believe combat has like a progress move
That if we don't
Let's see battle pay the price
Take decisive act when you see is an objective in a fight vision how you take decisive action
um
We could decide that we we took decisive action as opposed to a battle
On a strong hit you prevail take plus momentum
Of you're in control
None of that. Yeah. Yeah, okay fine. Fine. He doesn't have to you can say no surge
No, I I think I think it probably would have been the smarter move to make so we'll say we have 10 out of 10
Roll 2d10. I think we'll be fine, but go ahead and just roll it
double goose eggs
Double goose eggs. We did roll two ones, but I don't think that matters. It's still a strong. That was a good thing
Yes, it is a good thing. Uh, let's see what
Our
What is it again? We are
Completing a vow. I gotta pull up the vows
Uh connections
Oh, I could have just clicked fulfill. That's silly of me. That's okay. That's okay
We're gonna fulfill the vow and it was a strong hit. So we're gonna mark progress. Um on our legacy track
Uh, so we're gonna go to
Yeah, and then under quests we'll go up
Two check marks in the in the next box
So that's good. Um, we've completed that vow so we can get rid of it and now
It's we can kind of get kind of start wrapping up the session and maybe get some information from the sacroshamu
Yeah, um
It's a strong hit
Which means it's going to be
Good, you know, they're going to give us something that we want. Um
How do we want to decide this do you want to just kind of
I'm trying to think of what roles might be appropriate in terms of um, what they tell us
Um
Because obviously the options could be there's a planet here go there and that's what you're looking for
But I wanted to be a little spicier than that. There's something right more to it. Um
We could build a sector and say that's where you can find a new home
Or or oh, this could be interesting. They the sacroshamu know of a place but
It's kind of it the colonization has by the jungle has begun there
So if you like you can go there and you can try and take it
But they've already got a ship there and if you want to take it you're gonna have to take them down first
Okay, gotcha. Um
I think it requires there is a move that can kind of like summarize this. Um
Yeah, I don't know what that is, but I'm looking now at what we have. Uh, we could try to
Hmm
There's a way to uh, when you
When you're trying to kind of decide
You're not facing danger
You could try to gather information and the and that kind of fills in
the broader picture
Reach a milestone. I think that only happens. Let's see
Uh, when you make headway in your quest, which I guess this would be considered that
Yeah, um by doing any of the following overcoming a critical obstacle gaining meaningful insight
But this this is just explaining what you do. Um
Make a connection develop test forge a bond. I I don't know. I kind of feel like gather information
Is the most sensible we'd have to roll wits and
Depend even if it's a bad roll even if it's a miss they probably have a good answer for us
But it would just be more complicated, right? Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So roll wits width
No, okay, let's see and this is going to determine what they have to tell us
Strong head. All right. This is the best I've ever rolled in this session. Absolutely. It is. Um, we're gathering information
On a strong hit you discover something helpful and specific the path you must follow or direction you must take
Uh make progress is made clear envision what you learn
And take plus two momentum which we don't need so the first thing I'm going to do is under our vows
I'm going to mark some more progress. We now have three out of ten progress to find a new home
We're doing it. I also think under legacies
We should maybe increase well, we'll hold off on that. Um, we increase our bond with them because we've like
Fulfilled a true true. I think that's fair. We'll we'll increase it by a full
Um box which actually means we gain two experience every time we fill one of these boxes
So we have two to spend if we want
um
But then the question is
What is this good news?
I would say it means that there is a planet without the jungles presence
Yeah, I think so. Yeah
And I mean it's a strong hit. There's not any
big obstacles in the way
It's either just far away or
There's a a strange method to get there that just is going to take a little bit of time
What do you think
I mean not not this but something similar to um
Like interstellar when he just shoots himself into a black hole and then gets to like the fifth dimension or whatever the fuck
Some not not that obviously because that's
Well, then what of it do you want to keep?
Feed the cat. Sorry, it's medicate the cat time. Um
I think maybe it's like
You have to like oh, oh, oh, oh, maybe it's like maybe it's like, um
Algena al dana in uh in ashoka where like you can only see the portal to it
At a certain time or like maybe we have to orbit this one planet four times and then shoot off at like a really specific angle
I like that which would require like very specific flying
And like keeping count of how many times you orbit and like who knows what's on that planet
So it's like you have to orbit this other star a few times shoot off in a direction
And that's the only way you can get there got it. Well, I certainly love any reference to ashoka precious cargo available
anywhere you get your podcast
But uh, um, I joke I will say that I know we all do we all do
um
but
okay, I like the idea of a
quirky challenging path
that
Requires kind of testing the limits of the ship testing the limits of our piloting skills
Uh, sounds like it's just a journey we need to undertake
I
How okay, sorry
How would we get more supply and more spirit because I think if we knew that it was going to be this much of an undertaking
We would we would know that we had to resupply somehow and like kick that spirit up a little bit
Well, that's very simple. I mean we can simply make the the roles for it. Um,
Oh cool, uh, and and it makes sense that after helping the sacro shamu they're willing to
Resupply us and do everything that needs to be done so that we can get see ship a space worthy again
Okay, so if we're going to spend some time with them
We are going to not suffer but try to recover
So when you spend time recovering within a community
You can roll with heart now if you roll well under sojourn
You can do any number of these things repair heal resupply or
What's the other one harden? Uh, you have very low, um
spirit
Which means you would have to
hearten
But don't I have a thing for hearten?
Um, well, I just know all I know is that you are traumatized
Which means it like we have to roll it to even undo
I think like if you roll well on hearten all you do is you
Untraumatize yourself and you might only go to like one spirit
Or whatever your contemplation of sharing your faith in me
Plus. Oh, okay, dude. There you go spirit
Okay, so maybe
Maybe that's where we start is like because because the because the whale
blessed us this fight
We we all like communally take
part in whale thoughts and we we sing whale songs fair fair enough if you want to like
You know kind of just group morale for flavor, but this is about nadir. This is about him
recovering from his trauma of hating the uh
The uh, what's our called the jungle so you would hearten through contemplation or sharing of your faith
Even if it's with yourself or with others, it's fine. You may roll a linked stat
So all I need from you is how like if you want to use shadow
How are we using shadow to?
You know
How do we lie about religion?
Oh
I'll buy it if you just want to say that he just you know dives head first into
Guys, it was the whale. You know, he's like maybe maybe it was like I had a vision of the whale
During this battle. Yeah, and just full like
I'm down. I'm just preacher. All right drops it go ahead and roll shadow to um
heart
Yeah, instead of heart. No, I get a plus one after I do this. Yeah, if you if you get it
All right, well, here's the fun part you can burn the momentum if you want
Yes, all right, you're gonna burn it to to make a weak hit. Uh, so your momentum goes down to one
um
It's a weak hit
You find companionship or comfort and your spirit is strengthened
But this indulgence is fleeting envision and interruption a complication or a conflict
And lose one momentum
So your momentum will actually go to zero zero. Okay
But what is your spirit? What we'll say is you're no longer traumatized
Okay, uh, which technically
Would bring no, no, we'll leave it at zero because because now you can reset it too when you're no longer traumatized
right, um
Your spirit though
Wait, what resets it to momentum
The momentum resets it too because we're no longer traumatized traumatized was making it so that whenever it resets it it stops at one
Okay, okay. Um, what when you roll a strong hit
Which we didn't do which we didn't do
Uh, if you're shaken you can gain plus one spirit. Otherwise take plus two spirit make this move as you sojourn
so what i'll say is that um
Your spirit
I think your spirit would go to two
Okay, that's good
Yeah, because otherwise it would be
Otherwise it would just be one
No
Yeah, no, no, no, okay. It's just gonna be one
Okay, cool because we got rid of the shaken condition. We're no longer traumatized. Yes, uh, but we have one spirit
um
How much time and what does that look like?
um, I think
Because we're not traumatized. I think he kind of replaces his hatred of the jungle with a kind of manic
faith and and like
Outward spouting of the word of the whale
So I think I think it's just kind of a replacement and technically it's a little bit healthier because he's not actively hurting anyone
but it's not
Great. Sure. Maybe he even like confesses to the sins he was feeling of I wanted to kill them
But the whale has saved me. You know, he's brought me back
Do you think that do you think that when they sing it's like whale song like oh for sure? It's like
All right, so you've hardened we'll say that it doesn't take much time a couple of days at the most
What's the next thing you want to do resupply?
Resupply for sure. All right. Um
Are you gonna roll with heart iron shadow or wits?
With heart you're bartering with iron you're threatening with shadow
You are stealing or swindling and with wits you are scavenging
This is the danger
I love watching you struggle with this. I know
I want to say like i'm gonna put in the hard work and scavenger. I'm gonna I'm gonna talk about it with other people
But I know what
Okay, so you're saying you want to roll with shadow
No, all right. Um, I like it. How does he how does he steal or swindle?
You got two options there
I think
I
Can it be like an can it can it be like a swindling like an offering playing a church?
Uh, oh
Yeah, sure sure. No, like you're saying like maybe he even tries to convert some sacrosanctum. They give him better deals and
Yeah, it's like a it's like kind of like
The whale needs the whale has needs and we're gonna go spread the message and we and we need your money
Yeah
Roll with shadow experience in a church and none of them have been great. Yeah roll with shadow one was nice one was very nice, but
This
Oh, no, this is what I get. This is what I get a miss with zero momentum to save your ass
Okay, interesting. Um on a miss you encounter an unexpected peril pay the price
Um roll the d100. Let's see what that price might be
I
Want 21 a surprising development complicates your quest a surprising development complicates your quest
I have an idea. What are you? What are you thinking? It's new. It's really dumb. Uh
There is an actual profit of the whale god damn it
Like amongst the sacroshamu maybe amongst the sacroshamu there is a literal profit of her whale
That is like this man is a charlatan and like
Calls him out publicly. Hmm
interesting
Uh, yeah calls us out publicly. We are either
Going to suffer stress because it's like embarrassing and might set us back
Or we face danger even like what if the sacroshamu start throwing rocks at us or jellyfish or something?
Rocks or jellyfish. I mean the jellyfish would sting and they'd stick too. They're even worse than rocks
Wrapped around rocks. Oh, no
Rock rock fish rock jellyfish. Okay. So I which one would you prefer facing danger or
Enduring stress. We have very little spirit to spare
I'm gonna say face danger because I feel like I feel like he's as elie has said he's gonna be like full on
Let's square up. Let's go. I am the profit of
Okay, okay
um
I almost would say that you could try to compel like if you have a you know, if you compel you would out
Out compel the profit throw throwing verbal hands as opposed to physical ones face danger or compel. Which one are you feeling?
Holy seawater says parker would
I think compel. I think it's more in his style to like and you are you are of course lying and swindling you
Yeah, don't actually have well, maybe you do. I don't know
I think nader fully believes that he is a prophet of the whale and doesn't know he's actively lying
Role plus shadow
All right, let's see what happens. You are compelling. I don't think any of your assets. Nah your assets would not have helped
Onamist they refuse or make a demand which costs you greatly pay the price
Roll a d100
But I I think I know, you know, really what what happens here. Yeah, they just kick us off the planet or something
Yeah, since before
All right, let's see what the price is
A friend companion or ally is in harm's way or you are if alone
Um, yeah, I think that's fair
like
I think they definitely just
Yeah, they get us the fuck out of here. I do think we need to endure harm
Possibly like to get a few jellyfish rocks thrown at us. Yeah, we definitely they're definitely like
What is it called?
stoning us or yeah that
What they did to the witches and
Yeah, what what is it? Well, like what's stoning if it's wrapped in a jellyfish. It's more like stinging
Stinging. Yeah. Yeah. All right. So we're gonna we're gonna say this is a
You know a minor harm
Or is it a minus two a minus one or a minus two to harm?
Like how how much of a challenge is this? I mean we miss we need to not roll weak hits. We missed. Yeah, I think
Let's say two pretty bad. Yeah, I think it's two. So we're gonna reduce our health to four which I just did
Now you need to roll health. I think you can just click health and roll it
So that'd be with a plus four
All right. Okay strong here. We're hearty. We have our beliefs in there strong
Let me go to withstand damage. Oh, it's not withstand damage. It's endure harm on a strong hit
You can shake it off and bring your health up by one or you can take momentum
plus one
I'll take momentum. All right momentum goes up to I think it's one, right?
Yeah, now we're at plus one zero
All right, so we do take one or two jellyfish rocks to the head
But we get back to the ship
Back now we failed miserably to resupply if you'd like to resupply again
We can attempt it, but I would need a different approach
Um
I'm gonna say we like hop to a different part of the planet and just try to like scavenge
Like yeah, we're getting out of here. We're getting
I hope so much that this fails
Uh, we're going
Yeah, that would be hilarious. Okay. All right, so we are
We're facing danger for sure now
For sure. We are facing danger. We're gonna roll with shadow, which is a good thing
Just double check make sure that you don't have an asset
When you face danger. No, no, I don't think so. Just take decisive action and secure an advantage
face danger
to
Make this happen
We hit a weak hit. That's that's good. That's better than a mess than nothing. Yeah
On a weak hit you succeed, but add a troublesome cost
um
Actually what we should have been doing was resupplying
Uh, we'll say that we succeed in like not getting caught
But we do have to make a suffer move before we make that suffer move though. Well, no, we kind of have to complete that
Um resupplying
Because we did get a weak hit. So does that mean we resupplied but there was no because we didn't we didn't make a resupply roll
If you want you can re-roll again and just
We'll we'll do a resupply roll
Uh, but we can't use that last roll
Okay. Um, yeah, I mean, I think I think that's what we're focused on. I think that was kind of my bad
I I I said face danger when really it's just a resupply roll
So roll with shadow again
Face danger also made a whole ton of sense. It did it did
I'll we'll hit again. But regardless the same thing on a weak hit. Um
You can choose one of these. Um, you can
If you are unprepared, which you're not clear the impact and take plus one supply otherwise take plus two to supply
Or if you are in need of a specific item or resource
You can acquire it and take plus one momentum
I think the supply is what you really came for. Yeah the supply. We just want supply. Okay. We're not looking for anything specific
increase your supply to three
okay
and
This time
You know with enough we were quick enough that the word didn't spread
And we were able to get our supply keeping a low profile
Like probably one like shamu kid saw someone's like
But we managed to get out in time
So our health is at four our spirit is one our supply is at three
Do you want to roll again? Huh?
We've been in worse shape. We have been in worse shape. Yeah, this is this is good enough of any of a way to get started
so
I just want to kind of settle on something a little concrete about
This journey
Perhaps we can if it's a planet, maybe we could just create this planet now for us. Yeah, we can just know some stuff about it
Let's go
Given us information about the planet when they were like, okay, here's the planet. This is what you do
But this is what you're going to find right
So under the planets, there's a desert world. There's a furnace world. There's a grave world
There's an ice world a jovian world
Which is like a gas giant a jungle an ocean a rocky a shattered a tainted and a vital I honestly think
Jungle and vital and maybe ocean are the really the three best options for us. Yeah
I I don't want to do junk or ocean because it makes me think of it again
I I watched interstellar for the first time very recently
And it's all that I've been thinking about in space terms. I cried my way through that movie. It's a good movie
Uh sobbed multiple times. Yeah Parker asks. What is a grave world? We can kind of make that up
I I kind of think what it is is just a dead world. Yeah, I don't think that there's like a whole lot of
Stuff I don't I don't think they would send us to I certainly wouldn't want to settle on a great with anything called a grave world
Particularly I think vital or jungle or probably our best beds. Okay, so
50 50
Yeah, uh, do we prefer jungle over vital?
Or vice versa. I'd say vital just sounds more like well-rounded, you know, 51 or greater. Yes. It's a vital world
Let's find out
Otherwise, it's a jungle world
Vital world 84. It's a vital world. So it's like earth
habitable livable beautiful perfect in every way exactly what we need for our
human bodies as ironlanders, so
We know that it's a it's a vital world. Let's decide a couple things
about it
Vital uh the atmosphere roll a d-100 to decide the atmosphere
26
26 okay, it is
breathable
So there is a vital
That is breathable. The good news is that there
The options were marginal breathable and ideal
So that means breathable. There's probably some complications with it. You know, maybe yeah, whether the atmosphere is light or
You know, whatever
But it's still left. Yes. It's workable
Uh, we decided that there are no settlements. So we don't have to decide that
Uh, what can we observe from space roll another d-100?
Um
39 39, uh, where are we we are in the expanse
Oops wait, uh 39, um a large moon. It has a large moon
Oh, cool. Uh, there is the option to roll observe from space again
So if you want to do it one more time, maybe there's something else about the planet
Do what else we see or we will see 25
Bente cinco that is uh
High gravity
High gravity. Okay, so gravity is
Dent like we are dense or not denser, but we have more weight
Yes, and there's so it takes more effort to
Do anything. Yeah, the moon. Maybe the moon's like, oh, no, does the moon affect gravity?
Uh, I don't know. Yeah
The moon affects the tides never mind
Unfortunately, Aaron is not in the chat and so I don't know the answer to that
But we'll say yeah, for whatever reason, maybe it could be that the moon is affecting it
But it's just like a super dense core of the planet or something. Right, right
Either way, there is high gravity, which means we're all going to get shredded in a few years because we're just like
Constantly fighting gravity a little bit more our kids will certainly be shredded
um
Let's decide the the diversity on this planet roll a d100
Up not d10, dammit
33 33 uh that is it is diverse. So there are at least three biomes
Uh, so we're gonna roll three times. So roll three d hundreds to determine the biomes
Roll you said three d 20 three d hundreds. I'm sorry d hundreds. Sorry
Three d hundreds it is looking like
18 8 and 61
18
Which is glacial or snow. So there's definitely like big ice caps. What's the other one?
eight
Oh eight, uh, that's a cold forest interesting
Maybe like top down and then 61
61 is
shallow seas
Interesting so there is
Large glacial areas there's cold forest
I don't know what a cold forest is and there are shallow seas. I mean
Maybe like the black forest and and was it france? Ah, ah, yeah
Yeah, maybe just like really dense forest dense quiet forest or like coming down off a mountain like in the like in the pacific northwest
either way
There could possibly be other biomes, but I think these are like the major biomes
Yeah, so honestly the iron landers are kind of used to it being cold. So this isn't that bad
Yeah, this is familiar
Parker Woodley makes a good point the seas are shallow because the water is all locked in glacial ice. I really like that
Makes a lot of sense. So we're we're kind of returned
It's almost like an ideal place for the iron landers who are used to these like tundra like conditions
Uh, a planet side feature roll 2d hundred and let's figure out two of them for this place
72 and 70 uh the okay scarred or excavated terrain and signs of an engineered biosphere
Hmm
Okay, so maybe maybe there are like
scarred
An excavated terrain. I mean it could be the uh
You know, there are these things called vaults which were created by kind of like predecessors some kind of alien race
Maybe it's their work, you know
Yeah, yeah, yeah, maybe that it's just like a
Like they they went off in search of like somewhere warmer. Maybe yeah
Like dug out caves in the size of glaciers or in the size of mountains. Mm-hmm. Okay. And then final machine you like says
Weather control machine not again
Um
I do like the idea of kind of running with the idea that like this is a planet that was kind of created
um
To possibly house life, but it was like left alone and
Yeah, or like there's some ancient technology that no one really knows what it is anymore
But it's like there might be something that is workable there. What if we have to
travel through a vault to get there or what if like
You know, i'm thinking about your idea about like the weird way of getting there
What if they they tell us it's there's not a stargate, but there's a vault that will
Allow you from one planet to another
Yeah, yeah
I like that you like that. Okay. All right, cool same idea, but also like there's more danger potentially
I'm gonna leave the next person more danger. There's a vault you must
Traverse to the other side of
To get to this planet
I think it's kind of like the like the like the asteroid with the worm
in in uh
The uh, oh, oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Um, yes, exactly. You got to travel through the worm to get to the other side
Um
I don't know. I just like combined two things there
Okay, so we we've gotten rid of the the couriers are our progress of finding a new home. We've marked that
um
I think we can either end it here or if you want to
Begin the expedition undertake the journey to start heading to this vault. Whatever whatever you want to do
I'll leave it. I'll leave this journey. I've I've caused enough problems
I will leave this journey for the person who comes after me to start as they as they wish
Hey, we made some progress, which is not a problem. So I I would say you helped out
Allegra, thank you for playing with me today. Thank you for having me search
I always I always forget how much I love playing this game and then we jump on and I'm like, oh
Shit, let's go. I just love the the weird places. It takes us. We never know where it's gonna go
Yes
This was great. Thank you. Thank you everyone who's uh watching everyone who's uh with us now in the chat
We love uh using your ideas and and adding it to our crazy story. The space whale is is part of all that
um
Allegra anything we should mention before we bring the show to a close
Um
Doom's repeat arc two is coming out now. Um this week
There's gonna be a little bit of a break where just for like everyone's sanity and mental health
We're gonna start having it broken up a little bit when episodes get released. So not this week, but
Week after I think so. I think the goal is next week. Not this week. We will release episode three
Yes, are you gonna grace us with another heroes? You should know soon
I soon. Yes. I'm still I'm looking for like the right person. I have like all of my people that I'm looking through
I'm just like this doesn't fit right now
I'm trying to I'm trying to find some someone cool, but I promise we will be lack very soon very cool
Can't wait for that next one. Um, maybe we'll run something one of these fridays
Yeah, I have I I'd love to run um
What's it called? I can't there's a there's a one page rpg. I'd love to run maybe this friday if everyone's game
Okay, all right
It's about uh making a band and trying to write one hit song before we all break up
I I I like where that could possibly lead us. I like that. Yeah, all right
So hopefully maybe that'll happen this week. We'll see we'll see we'll see
awesome
Um guys, thank you again for supporting us parker. Thanks for subscribing to us on twitch
That's certainly a lovely way of uh supporting us. We also have a patreon
um
There's not much more to say
Oh, wait the last thing which I always forget
Roll a d6 and we will pick the next player now very quickly. I had written down here
I have written down in front of me the the names of everybody. So you are three. So we'll re-roll on a three
Roll a d6
let's go
Six a six which is zakia
So zakia will return next week
Bouncing back to that bounce right back
That's happened with you before where we had you offer just one one session. You came back. This is good
It means that she'll actually remember what we did last time as opposed to like waiting to see all the terrible things
Yeah, exactly in one session. Well, awesome. We'll try to have zakia on next time. Uh, thanks everybody for watching
We will see you next time
