Wow that's a nice roll! Having anticipated just such questions, Hua is able to give a list of four different dance partners and two others who saw her there. The debreifers are satisfied with her answers (those two officers have over 100 people to "debrief", and it appear that she is in the clear).

She is asked about fussy eating habits during the trip, but she can honestly say she doesn't have any.

Chuvi doesn't mention the pills being gone. Or like others to notice the pills at all.

Daymar needs to target either getting a standard issue weapon (assigned to individuals and used daily), an armory weapon (inventoried every 8 hours, stored in racks of 10, locked up near officers and security quarters), or a personal weapon (which will be individually stored, may not be checked, and most likely belongs to an officer). I suspect that your ally is likely to be a touch better at stealing than you are (much as you are better at avoiding eating food).



As for turning someone, you've got a willing accomplice who will follow you all over the ship. Who do you WANT to get? An officer? a random fall guy? a security specialist? Its all about meeting them, and you spend all day walking around the ship.

As a note: Zorbani is the name of the collation of invaders you're trying to stop. Jakorbi is the name of the nation you're trying to protect. (who themselves speak the Zorbani language, but have different political allegiances and a much better human rights record.) And neither the Zorbani pact nor Jakorbi are likely to field dreadstormers: they're likely to be from either the fifth spinward republic (Quintas, that's you) or the Malu empire.


The dreadstormers will be meeting up tonight (monday) for their second meeting.
