Gang, Im afraid I have to drop. Too many commitments. Thanks for the game.

C'mon guys, I'm trying to play along with the plot. This is the adventure we've been given.

As my 12 yr old daughter would say, "Help me out here."

Bridge "Look, my first impulse was to space her. With sabotage in the offing, my second impulse was to find the additional saboteur, and space them both. My third impulse is to return to port, and turn the stowaway and the saboteur over to the authorities. But -- what if it's true? And maybe th...

Bridge Dars replies to Agathes, "What exactly is involved? Are we talking assault of a passenger? Who is it? Would they be aware that they're carrying this evil mind?" "Maybe aware, maybe not. Agathes smell stink of mind in passenger room. One have mind, maybe more. Go while sleeping...

Dars replies to Agathes, "What exactly is involved? Are we talking assault of a passenger? Who is it? Would they be aware that they're carrying this evil mind?"

That's it? After no chance to post?

OK, well, next chance I have to post, I'll pick it up back on the bridge.

Passenger Lounge Dars listens, allowing each to have the opportunity to speak. Then he smiles politely and addresses the assembly. "Agathes is a stowaway, with what she claims to be extenuating circumstances. I chose to allow her to try and convince me of her sincerity. She claims no responsibi...

Should we just assume that Agathes givescthe same somewhat difficult to follow story, and then react?

FYI I'm going to have infrequent opportunities to post for most of October, mostly from my smartphone, so please try not to let me hold the game up...

(Re-posting, in part) Passenger Lounge Dars arrives with Olive, Nate, Johan and Agathes , and asks Olive to gather the passengers in the lounge. Dars has the passengers gathered. "We're tracking down the cause of the power failure. Rest assured that until we've uncovered it, we won't be moving...

Bridge "I think I must keep Mr Neyland with me, and with our guest. Mr Suldanto , I think that means you're elected. You can just put that rifle back in the locker before you go, eh? " Dars assists the navigator in getting that back inside. If Samantha's done with the consoles, she can 'm...

I'd prefer to keep Nate in charge of the stowaway. And to subdue any alien-controlled passengers.

OK, take it away!

Bridge Now that they've all been checked, including Jacks, Dars lets Jacks work out which crewmember will assist him. As long as that leaves one Pilot on duty, Dars will send Carter and helper back to Engineering. Leave one Pilot on Bridge, armed. Leave Nate and myself armed. Now, Dars asks the rema...

Yeah, I agree. Honestly I would turn back, press charges against her. Fire Eugene. Possibly fire Carter. And if I found out any passengers hacked into the computer system, press charges against them as well. But OTOH it's an rpg and we just have to accept the plot and get everyone involved as equals...

Bridge Dars hits the comm switch. "Thank you for the update, Mr Jacks. I need to know the cause of the system failure; we need to identify the saboteur, hopefully without giving away our hand. Also, having things " a mess" is not an acceptable state. But why don't you join us on the b...

Dars observes the passenger interacting with the stowaway, then says again, "You can test my blood. I'll take a look at your syringe first, though."

To Johan, Dars says, "What can you tell me? Have you ever heard of such a thing?"

Johan will attempt to stay in the presence of the alien: I have some minor expertise in xeno studies... this is an Asgardi. He will say to those present. OCC: Sorry to come to the party late. I'm OK with retconning Johan's comment. He can have been on the bridge all this time. If it's OK with our GM.

Bridge Dars shakes his head, addressing Agathes . "I have difficulty understanding you. Are you finished checking us here on the bridge? If not, let's take turns and check us all." Addressing the rest of his crew here in the room, "Pass your weapons off when it's your turn to be chec...

Bridge Dars nods to Eugene . "I offered to let her check me, no more. You may keep her covered, but let's not over-react. As long as she makes no hostile moves, you don't either." Turning to Agathes , he asks, "That's it? You sniff? And have you sniffed the rest of us here on the bri...

Dars raises an eyebrow. "Yes. And. There's one empty jar."
