Session 1

Session begins with the Intro to Olympus Lambda, after which we transfer to a Farusa starport.

January 1, 3200
Ship looks very beat up (dinged, needs paint, blemishes), but lands on a landing pad smoothly and is well-functioning. Everyone is already on Farusa.

Isaac/Janick: Dark hair, stubble, looks very German, green eyes, wearing rifle on back, woven body armor (looks like Chhaya congressional republic navy colors, no insignia, military surplus). Looks back and forth, trying to maintain his cool. Reads the space newspaper

Molly/Bijou: Big fluffy fur jacket, 5’5”, thick limbs that make her appear stubby, but pretty, laser pistol

Sam/Aquila: Not super familiar with ships, but is a fan and is also a tinkerer (familiar with mechanics), appears out of refuse pile. White, wild, unkempt hair, smudged face, beginnings of a beard, pockets all over his body, knife in boot that isn’t used for normal reasons, laser pistol. Dirty hands, one glove, very dirty.

Calob/Jedidiah:

Megan/Loralei: Just arrived, 17, really dressed up and out of place, everything is very high end, looking for work in a court, very energetic and trying to talk way onto a ship, super curly frizzy blonde hair. Trying to go to a specific planet.

Landon/Rowan: Wild eyes, obviously psychic, tall and skinny, gaunt with a tick. Well dressed with a handler, trying to get off planet.

Welcome to Farusa board with job descriptions

Psychics must take drugs to not die

Still bureaucratic processing on landing due to remnants of GH rule

Loralei won’t talk to Aquila or Jedidiah but talks to Bijou (who is happy someone is talking to them). Jedidiah talks to Aquila. Janick wants to go north and “not be with the military anymore”: Loralei also wants to go to sector north.

Janick deals with moving things from one system to another. Rowan reveals that he is a psychic. Everyone shows up (Aquila/Aki offers to be the mechanic)

Postings

Lorelai: Gentleman looking for protection for a few days (2500 credits, 2 days of protection)

Rowan: Asclepias presence in the city can provide fuel

Aquila: Looking for very fast ship to head up north

Janick: Yesler contact said someone had work on Farusa if needed

Rowan rolls well to get his handler to give him 1000 credits for 2 fuel units to get off planet.

6 barracks-style rooms and 1 bathroom on ship.

Janick is a smuggler, smuggles possibly-illegal cargo.

Agreed to take Lorelai’s job (person is in the city), leave the ship behind (clear to dock for a week).

See the ship, well built but beat up. Edelweiss was old name. Definitely not an Aegis-made spaceship. Chhayan ships are much more logical and rigidly laid out, streamlined/rigid: Aegis take more liberties, are curved. Artificial gravity on all ships.

Workship/EngineRoom near the back of the ship, across from each other.

Jedidiah is young, maybe 19 (Aquila calls him “father”).

Ship meeting to decide department heads.

Go to town, the 93rd floor, John Tucker. Nice apartment, John Tucker has a Spike Thrower that he doesn’t know how to use (safety on, chambered round). Apartment relatively empty (likely sold a lot of furniture) but very nice.

GH was not very cohesive and only held power because the groups that made it up were very powerful. John Tucker was a lobbyist for Aegis, which puts him at odds with the people (he got rich while the people suffered).

John Tucker waiting for friends to get him off-planet in a couple of days: friends are with the Aegis Shipyard. Corliss military group butt heads with Aegis and now Corliss might want him dead (after Aegis pulled out of system).
