The crew sets out with their brand new ship “Star Venture” to travel to a nearby star system called Amineh, with a Jumpgate. The crew spent the 28 days or so, learning about the ship, the new AI, and reading up on the history of the Ghostreach Sector. One thing the crew fixated on (and rightly so) was the Rec Hub, where they can pick up jobs to do to keep the ship going until they find their way home.
They find a job on offer on Samksha to track down and kill a wild boar that is destroying villages around an old Tenarii artefact. They land at the spaceport that is run by a company called PrimaCorp, but the whole place is in fact run by a psychic crusading religion called “the Veiled Mind”. They seem opposed to the killing of this boar. But the local Serran population needs help to stop the destruction.
Our heroic criminals quickly jump in for the princely sum of $5,000 to kill this boar. Once they arrive close to the forest a sudden electrical jamming kills anything running on electronics (including implants), which shuts down the vehicle and all their comms. While tracking through the forest, a boar is spotted and Desanta runs after it, taking a blind shot into the woods where he thinks it may have gone…but instead shoots a PrimaCorp soldier causing a raucous. Luckily he didn’t kill him or things would have gotten much worse!
The PrimaCorp squad shows up and when Desanta refused orders to drop his weapon, they opened fire on the crew. Hitler, as always the voice of reason, dropped his weapon and the other followed suit. Afterwards the crew was escorted back to their vehicle and left to wait out the power jamming. They quickly overpowered the one guard that was left and they continued on their hunt.
While searching for the boar, they came across $1,000 worth of valuable minerals to sell at the spaceport. They were attacked by the boar and was able to take it down. The Serran’s paid the bounty and back at the spaceport Jack Shift was sweet talked into joining the “The Veiled Mind” and underwent the process of having his mind tinkered with by a machine built Millenia ago for a completely different type of being. Smart guy. But now he has Psionics! And some hindrances that he is aware of, and at least one he is NOT aware of.
Also, every crewman (regardless of whether or not they joined in on the hunt) should make a persuasion or intimidation roll and text or email me what they rolled. I will send separate texts or emails to each person based on their roll. If I don’t get a response from someone that’s ok…you just won’t have any information.
