Silas is lounging around at the office, exchanging war tales with Greyson . At this point, he's probably told him about every single one of his exploits, considerably embellished, and with zero consistency between the retellings. "Ah, gentlemen, you've returned! You bring some lucrative busine...

With the mechanic now calm(er), Silas explains to her how he came to possess the sleek gravcar. Naturally, he embellishes the story a fair bit, making it seem like Bao was just barely convinced to part with what was probably one of his favourite vehicles. "And then I thought, who better to take...

Waking up in a clean room larger than a broom closet is definitely an unusual experience for Silas , but it reminds him that the Neogen deal really did go through. Just in case, though, he re-checks his account balance. Yup, definitely more zeroes than there ought to be. Still recovering from last n...

Skunk will be your Factor for this branch office
He's currently on the hunt for archaeotech

The nerve of this guy, he just locked all the terminals before leaving.

"Think nothing of it. Here's to a successful business venture!" Silas opens up another bottle of baiju and raises a toast before Odo leaves to gather information. Several minutes of silence and one bottle later, he turns to the others and stammers out: "Wh-who knew coming up with a n...

Sounds good to me. I literally can't come up with a single name, so I'm fine with anything.

Silas's level up: 3+1 skill points, +1 extra partial expert SP he saved from the last level up: 3 SP to raise Shoot-1 to Shoot-2, and 2 expert SP to raise Notice-0 to Notice-1 HP: Level 3 HP: [3d6+9]=13+9=22 Well that certainly is an increase. Saves reduced by 1. Edit: Decided to swap out Notice-0 >...

"Don't worry, I'll work out the details with my mechanic. I just got a text from her, aaaand... she's absolutely freaking out." Silas closes the message and grins from ear to ear: "I think I'll let her stew for a while, though. Thanks a lot, pops. Like I said, I owe you one." He...

Silas nods at Vyrner: "Sounds good to me. We've still got some time left until the Open."

How much time, though?

Silas examines the drafted contract carefully. He did spend some time as a merchant, after all, and wasn't going to put his name on anything without reading it multiple times. He's aware that he isn't particularly business savvy, though, and only got the job because of nepotism. As such, he decides...

Seeing as the rest of the crew seems focused on the armoured limo's fine dining capabilities, Silas rummages through the impeccably cooled drinks in the minibar and is surprised and delighted to find a flask of the finest Antakis whiskey - pre-split, no doubt. He takes a swig and the taste is no les...

Silas listens in as Romer and Damian discuss the finer details of dimensional jaunts, joining in from time to time. It's not long, however, until his level of scientific understanding isn't enough to keep up, and soon enough, he's snoring on the mess table loudly, half-empty bottle of cheap alcosyn...

Been a bit, uh, busy with Path of Exile the last week (and then some), whoops. With the flight back fortunately being uneventful, Silas spends most of his time drinking and socialising with the rest of the crew, occasionally returning to the pilot's seat to correct the drill calculations. He's glad...

I took the liberty of fast forwarding a bit and making quite a few assumptions, feel free to interrupt and/or correct me.

Silas was already going through the launch preparations, and is nearly done by the time he receives the go-ahead from Damian . The hangar doors open and he fires up the thrusters, carefully maneuvering the vessel out of the facility. Once the Vale is in the clear, he switches to cruising speed and ...

Silas turns towards the curious soldier as he passes: "Sorry, need-to-know only. Ask the boss, I can't say anything." He nods towards Romer before boarding the vessel. Once aboard, he makes sure there are no guards stationed inside before checking out the vessel's condition. Assuming she ...

Merry Christmas! Nothing quite like stealing (back) a starship to celebrate.

Silas looks at the soldiers and shrugs, as if to say "just following orders".

Assuming they're confused enough to let him, he makes his way past them and tries to board the ship.

Oh, I assumed we were in combat and were going to go in initiative order. Yeah, that works for me.

Hey, Viktor, welcome.

Silas nods and puts away his weapon, waiting for Benedict to input the forged orders.

"It'll get us close to them at least. I doubt they'll buy the story when they see we're not in uniform, but it's worth a shot.
