Iron Stars - elowen

(I believe our most recent XP has us at level 3, so we can get you leveled up!)

(Yay!!!! So excited!!!!)

(okay, so level 3 is not too bad. All we need to do are skill points and more hit points, we don't get a focus this level. We'll do HP first. Since it's level 3, you roll 3 d6. If the new number is better than your existing HP, you get that, if its worse, you just get one more health than your old total. You will never have less HP than what you started with before leveling)

Elowen Request: [3d6] Roll: [5, 3, 1] Result: 9

(9 is better than 7, so we will keep the 9)

11:49 AM

(You're also a partial warrior, so we get two more HP for that, bringing our total to 11)

11:50 AM

(Now you have 4 skill points to spend. to level, it is 1+the rank you are trying to get to for spending skill points to get there, right now, nothing can be above rank 2)

(Just note that you have a re roll token. You may spend that token in the future to re roll a failed save, a missed attack roll, or a failed skill check. If the re rolled result is also still a miss or a failure then the result stands but it’s an option to try again in a situation where you really want to pass or hit)

(Thanks king!)

(okay! Our first solo adventure, lets poke around in town and see if we can get a henchman. Did you have an idea of w hat skills you'd like them to have? Or things you're not good at that you think a companion could help out with? There are no wrong answers)

(Let me get through this week and do some research when I have a sec and I’ll get back to you by Sunday!)

(no problem at all1)

(I’ve looked through everything and honestly dealers choice. I just want a lovable goofball to do goofball things and just go along with stuff lol)

(Sounds good. You’re an expert so I think a warrior with a couple good utility skills would be good to watch your back. I’ll make a thing for you tomorrow when I’m back to my computer )

(You’re the real mvp)

(did you want to name them or do you want me do?)

(Do the honors!)

11:27 AM

(I like the mystery lol)

You remember Darwin Ideon from your time living in the settlement. Darwin is a bruiser and is always ready for a fight. The temperance of going from a hot blooded teen to an adult has caused them to think mroe carefully about the fights they start, or choose to finish, but once they decide to bash someone's head in, they don't stop until they've won and the other person knows better than to trouble them ever again. You'd worked with him a few times before on small jobs here and there , nothing close to home, as even Darwin knows you don't steal from the people you are neighbors with. He spends most of his time in the tavern. The lack of food has precious little available there, but many locals decide to just spend their time there anyway in mimicry of their life before the shortages

Elowen notices Darwin sitting in a corner playing a game against one of the other locals in the tavern where they’d frequent after jobs, betting on games with newly acquired currency. “Long time, Darwin. I see you’re still shit at this game.” Elowen giggles so Darwin knows she’s pulling his leg. “Can I have a word with you? Alone.”

He raises an eyebrow. You have his attention and he nods , excusing himself from the game for a few hands as he stands up and follows you to a quieter corner of the bar. "This business or personal?" he asks, looking down at the table.

“A little of both, actually. I’ve got quite a bit of work I’d like to get done over the next few months and I think you’d be the perfect right hand man for the jobs. Of course we’d split revenue if you’re willing. Does that interest you at all?”

"Got a lead on any jobs?" he asks, thinking his options over. You don't get the sense that saying no means an automatic out, but he is deciding on which die to throw,and which future he will choose for himself.

(What kind of options do I have for the skill set I have?)

(I’ll get you a list of options if you haven’t seen anything over the course of your travels that you wanna investigate more )

3:51 PM

(Lemme think some up)

(Actually a good one, which may not be an exact crime or have an immediate payoff but would still be helpful is finding some of the other towns on the surface of Juroli that we haven't worked with yet, and either seeing what they need to survive the winter, or relocating the people to Ferg's town so they're closer to food and aid)

8:47 AM

(We eventually will probsably need to go off and steal some more as well)

"First, a good deed, if that's ok with you, then we'll have some fun with a delicious payout. There's a town down the way that needs some aid, and neighbors are basically family as you know. I'm going to see what kind of supplies they need or move some people around first if they're ok with that to get through winter."

(Talk/cha)

"Alright, I like that idea. Balance the karmic scales and all. A good deed before we do something bad. When do you plan on heading out?:

“I reckon if you’re ready we’ll head out at dawn. Maybe sweep a game or two while we’re here for old times sake? I don’t want to take allll your money but I don’t think you’ll beat me again, I’ve been practicing lately.” Elowen laughs as she knows this’ll get Darwin in a tizzy.

(if you actually wanna gamble we can. normally I just have someone roll a luck save and we see if they win or lose)

(oooooh either way! you tell me! im always down for a gamble though! i like to push my luck!)

(sure! lets get a luck save, we'll keep it to a small number of credits. You would roll a D20, and if it meets or beats the luck save on your sheet, then you pass)

You lost about ten credits over several rounds of cards and Darwin is in a better mood, certainly more receptive to your desires now that he's made some quick cash off you.

“I see you’ve been busy practicing too, always a step ahead of me. Good on ya, Darwin! Payment as promised but what do you say about my goals, are you in?”

“I’m in. When do we leave? Soon I hope. Got these credits of yours burning a hole in my pocket”

"We'll leave first thing in the morning. Get your pack together and a good sleep, it's a little bit of a trek."

"Nah, I don't walk. We'll take my grav bike, It's got room for a second person on it. I'll meet you here tomorrow and you can show me where you're going. You can drive- then I can sleep in the side car" he laughs.

“Sounds good. Night Darwin, and thanks for coming along. I knew I could count on you.” Elowen gleams to be reunited once again.

(did you want to buy anyting before setting off? Can help with the gear if you're overwhelmed by the choices)

(If you have recommendations yes please! I also don’t know how many credits I actually have)

7:41 AM

(I have been keeping track for you

(I would say you might want a rifle sized weapon so you can take advantage of engaging things from a longer range, and maybe some better armor, but its up to you how much you want to balance being like a sneaky smooth talker and looking like a walking tank. Street armor looks like street clothes or its worn under your clothes. combat armor is like police riot suits and things that are outside, so are harder to hide)
