OK, so the next day, after work, I'll try to sneak the poison pills in to a drive section mess (not Daymar's).

More lying to Thibi:

[563] 21-08-04 22:17:32 CEST
Acting
3d6 <= 15 17
6 + 5 + 2 = 13 ... success

Checking photorefraction before heading up:

[564] 21-08-04 22:19:38 CEST
Photorefraction
3d6 <= 15
6 + 2 + 6 = 14 ... success

Heading up and casing:

[565] 21-08-04 22:20:11 CEST
Stealth
3d6 <= 16
2 + 1 + 6 = 9 ... success
[566] 21-08-04 22:20:28 CEST
Observation
3d6 <= 13
3 + 5 + 4 = 12 ... success

Now opening the pill locker, making three attempts:

[567] 21-08-04 22:22:00 CEST
Lockpicking at -4
3d6 <= 10
1: 5 + 5 + 4 = 14 ... failure
2: 6 + 3 + 6 = 15 ... failure
3: 4 + 3 + 3 = 10 ... success

And then heading back:

[568] 21-08-04 22:22:33 CEST
Photorefraction
3d6 <= 15
4 + 2 + 1 = 7 ... success
[569] 21-08-04 22:22:45 CEST
Stealth
3d6 <= 16
2 + 1 + 1 = 4 ... success

Next will be another nap, and to try casing the brig, again.

Daymar can't risk eating contaminated food now. He'll try to steer Kivu to a table near the edge of the mess, with as few people around as possible. He will resort to his old tricks removing and disposing of the possibly contaminated meal, and then trying to scrounge up something that's more likely to be safe. If his tablemates are suspicious, I can use Suggestion to re-direct attention, but for now he's trying this sans powers.

Holdout

[572] 21-08-05 00:18:09 CEST

Scrounging

3d6 <= 14
4 + 1 + 5 = 10 ... success

Unless Daymar is slacking off for the next 8 hours, he'll take 1 FP from working two shifts back to back until he can rest properly.

Daymar is going to work a normal shift and use this time to get oriented in his new role.

She has snuck the poison pills into a drive section mess: Is he targeting the hyperdrive or the rocket crew?

His practiced tricks work.



How many meals will he do that for?

Hyperdrive; I want to try to delay the repairs for longer. I forgot to mention this, but I'd to keep a few so I have a convenient means to poison people later.

After getting early sleep in during break period, I try to case the brig a second time, during sleep period.

Now that I have the guard's schedule now, I suppose I have a good idea of how to ambush them next time, and if Botha's being imprisoned here.

I guess until he can determine whether the food is safe or not - unless there's some message from Hua, he'll have to keep this up until the next meeting.

Remember Pacifica told Hua to be careful. They are on the lookout!

Erick, what did Pacifica learn from Nejora?
What are her skills?

[ericthered]

We need a few more rolls from Daymar, and then the meeting.

oh, and maybe some fuss about an entire section being arrested and an adjacent one being poisoned.

Awesome... good idea.

Done. We'll see how this progresses the next night.

I need rolls for two more meals then.

If that goes well it will be time for the meeting.

Nejora's skills are that of a navigator, rather than a clerk. She can talk about the Bush on Jeetu, but its clear she has little actual experience in it. She's not bad in a fist fight. Her people skills are enough to get by, and she's a pretty good navigator-- deep down, she's good with numbers.

Okay, for the second meal, Daymar succeeded at Filch, Holdout, and Scrounging. For the third meal, Daymar succeeded Filch and Scrounging, but failed at Holdout. So, I guess he needs to figure out who might have seen him, and how to handle that. I've rolled against Suggestion, since that will probably be involved in sorting the situation out.

Pacifica takes note of her buddy's skills.

Can Nejora wield guns or knives? Since Day had a small issue during lunchtime, should we wait for another round of rolls?

She's been trained in marksman ship and knife combat... just like every other green recruit on this ship. She is not markedly better at shooting than anyone else, and might only be better at knives because she knows how to scrap on the ground properly.

Dinner is a collection of pea-sized pasta/dumping balls infused with flavoring from some planet probably only known to chefs.



Daymar gets the batch to the bathroom, but when he's trying to get it all out, some of it spills. The bathroom has a few people in it, but it seems only one person has noticed. Daymar Quickly suggests that he forget about it, and the man returns to his "business".



After work, Its time to get to the meeting. As Daymar is getting ready to leave, he sees security lead an entire hall full of people from shields into elevators.



It has been 72 hours since the ship has dropped out of hyperspace.
