Make a DX roll. Make an IQ-based carousing roll.

Where does the supervisor keep the money when he's not paying people?
--
Are there multiple supervisors? Do the hand over the money when they receive the Vasic lights?
The Kapatas keeps the money in a big wooden chest with a heavy old-fashioned lock built into it. The chest is kept in plain sight, and the key is in the Kapatas's pocket and tied to his belt. The stones are handed in before the money is handed out, but some care is made to ensure they are all handed back in. There are different Kapata's for each crew of workers, and they each use a different chest of money.

Well, depending on how talkative Ump is being, I might try to make up a song. Nothing special, just something to the tune of the wheels on the bus.

"This is how we push the basket, push the basket, push the basket. This is how we push the basket, all day long."
"This is how we light the hole, light the hole, light the hole. This is how we light the hole, all day long."
Ump is almost always talkative!



He likes the song, and wants to know what the meaning is, and then starts making up his own words in his own language.



After a few minutes and verses, someone else in the tunnel yells at them, and Ump stops singing, gestures for Julian to do so, and looks sheepish.



The work is really being hard on Julian's knees: they hurt.



Roll against HT.
