Requiem
Plague / Epidemic
1/8
6/8
As the standard month dawns, success is reached in re-establishing the hypernet across the Tapani Sector. Trade and contact with the outside Galaxy is restored. Unfortunately, this requires dozens of scout ships to locate and manually reconfigure the remaining hypernet buoys, opening a floodgate of requests to the Alliance of Worlds that it was not prepared for.
Along the border between the Confederacy and the Alliance, this becomes most apparent from the number of mysterious ‘training accidents’ that have occurred along both sides since the arrival of the Mando’a forces among the Alliance fleet. In a gesture of goodwill and cooperation, Emperor Kane personally escorts much needed supplies to the Alliance, bolstering the reconstruction efforts across Tapani and offering a non-aggression, free trade treaty with the Tapani Alliance.
Meanwhile, on Tar Sona station that orbits quietly around the main primary star of Procopia, our heroes have stopped over after delivering cargo to new colonies founded in the ruins of New Shella, Reyna System, and Sheva System. While there, a strange message greets them, as if they were expected…
Welcome to Tar Sona, where apparently we were expected....
Strange, unnaturally mutated things on a House Vormecetti death world have attacked and infected two lives very dear to VN Ysadora, over galactic secrets that could spell the salvation -- or the doom -- of the Tapani Imperium as a whole.
It's much more complicated than that, actually:
Eleni: {points downward and nods encouragingly} With the blood on him!
Canned is fine.
Vanya: {flips the padawan braid enthusiastically in response}
Danar: Hmm. When WERE you graduating?
Danar's player: I'm going to write a report on all this to ImpSec
Eleni's player: Eleni doesn't have anyone to report to, really, so I guess I'm just going to ... {trails off}
Vanya: You wanna send one of MY reports?
Eleni: {perks right up}
Yoda has a tell!
GM: You guys aren't even into Act I yet!
Khun: Do you mind if I do the landing this time?
Eleni: {upset} We're LANDING?!?
You got a Bene Gesserit point!
Eleni: {in The Voice} STOP, and show yourself!
invisible guy: {in The Voice} NO. {runs}
Khun: {stuns the crap out of invisible guy}
Khun: {deep voice} YES!
GM: You have one thought ... that you have a bad feeling about this.
WookieeGunner: That's funny. MY one thought was that I shouldn't've let {the GM} read my Malifeaux Book.
Yeager's player: Somethin' sorta cenobyte about that girl....
Danar's player rolls to hit
GM: The ground doesn't dodge
Eleni's player: you never know about this planet
Tsu: I'm going to do a KitKat Patent Pending Sensor Scan!
Yeager's player: Noooo!
Eleni's player: A what?
Vanya's player: That's where the sensor scan goes PIIIIIIIIING, because every time {KitKat's player} rolls that particular kind of sensor scan, he rolls a ONE.
WookieeGunner: {rolls}
Vanya's player: JUST LIKE THAT! {points}
Yeager's player: {sweeps all clone figures flat with one hand}
GM: Wait! Wait! I have to roll first!
There's no trailer hitch on my ship.
Door: {opens}
Yeager Lexics: Helllllo, ladies!
Sister of Battle: PURGE THE UNCLEAN!
6 plasma flamers: {open fire}
Khun: Is everything ok in there?
Yeager: No!
Eleni: No?
Vanya: Hell, no!
Danar: {hangs over lava pit} No, no, not particularly.
Burner: {cough} I'm having fun.
Yeager: I always like the one in charge, I don't know why that is.
Vanya: I do.
Eleni: I do.
You light up his life
He gives you holes
the hell-walrus fires
Yeager: That one's GOT TO GO
Eleni and Khun: {simultaneously Working on it.
For Yeager, BEER is the mind-killer.
I'm thinking we could design a weapon that does this *on purpose*!
First they give you a vodka shot and then you find out WHY.
She's mastered Mind Control Through Punching!
