"Well, that's what we're all about: givin' people a better choice." Dawn smiled, nodded, and went on her way. She gave the thumbs up to Alenys, paused, then explained that it was a gesture meaning "things are okay." "So they're dealin' with raiders belongin' to someone called the Gargoyle King...

"Hmmm. Gargoyle King, huh?" Dawn makes a mental note to include that in the debrief. "I'll keep an eye out." She halfway turned away, then thought better of it. "You know, the 1st Apoc ain't too picky about who they call a d-bee - or who they accuse of harbouring 'em. But I get what you're...

Questions: 1) Are we allowed to say we're from the Tomorrow Legion? I am given to think that we're a semi-public outfit. 2) Are we close enough in terms of influence and supply chains that we could convince this town to join the Legion?

"My name's Dawn Silvermane. These're my associates an' I vouch for 'em, big bug aside. We're from all over, on a mission of mercy to rescue refugees an' lost souls. We know these ain't safe lands or safe times, which is why we're not stickin' around in 'em." She taps the side of her nose. "Why...

Dawn persuasion check: 1D4.OPEN(4)-1 = [4, 4, 1]-1 = 8 A double explosion! Finally, some good luck. Dawn wild die: 1D6.OPEN(6) = [3] = 3 With an 8, potentially two successes, depending on whether cyber-knight earns Dawn a +2 or -2. Shaking the sleep out of herself, Dawn handed her weapons...

Dawn will volunteer, but I realized that I don't actually have points in Persuasion. If she's going to be the face, she'd better get some. I didn't spend the last raise, so can I spend it now on getting her that skill?

(OOC: If we have a flag of peace, Dawn will display it; if we have some kind of megaphone, Dawn will announce that they come in peace; if they lack these things, Dawn will disembark after leaving her weapons behind and walk out, hands up, to show that they mean no harm.)

"Yeah. I think if we go flat out we can make it. Might be a bit bumpy an' a bit loud. We should try an' not scare anyone livin' in those settlements - " Off Varg's look, she stuck her tongue out. "Bein' scared of a giant :):):):)-off beetle is a hundred percent rational. Anyways, keep goin'...

"Hmmmm." Dawn examines the map some more. "That lady we rescued from the orcs mentioned a place called Promise. Not exactly welcomin' to D-bees but no laws against 'em either. But they do trade with Whykin, which definitely hates D-bees an' has Coalition ties. Think it's worth the risk of lyin'...

Dawn frowns, as the weight of the choice in front of them seems difficult. She consults the map - if Castle Refuge was out of the question, was there a path to New Lazlo or a similar sanctuary allied with the Tomorrow Legion? As she read, she talked to the others, taking care to keep her nose...

(pokes) This thing still on?

"Mmn." Dawn keeps sniffing the air, by now used to the mix of magical, psychic and supernatural scents that the group carried with them, and frowning at the unfamiliar ones. "Gang, got a feelin' we might be gettin' spied on via magic. Careful what you say."

"1st Apocalyptic Cavalry is a buncha people who style themselves frontier vigilantes but who couch alla their activities in open hatred. They hate anythin' that's a d-bee or anythin' that looks like a d-bee, an' I ain't too eager to see where they make the distinction. They'd as likely as not do...

"Hear that." Dawn nodded. "Just checkin'. Sleep fast, we ain't outta the woods yet an' anything that comes to try to eat, kill or arrest us is probably gonna wanna do the same to you."

"That you do. I imagine you got a lotta sideeye in the Federation of Magic with them implants. You hired through a company or you freelance?"

Yep, used it on them, and if Deez or Marcus is wounded she'll use it on them too. If the IRMSS runs out she'll use her medicine skill (after she's healed a wound so she can use her skill more effectively. "No plans to torture. Not too keen on slavery either." Dawn sniffed the air for unfamiliar...

"Aright, Alenys, so: it was my fault. I assumed you knew how to handle a firearm like the rest of us an' I forgot you hatched not too long ago. So don't beat yourself up over it. If you listen, it's not likely to happen again." With that, Dawn goes over the basics of keeping a weapon...

I'll have Dawn take first watch with the dog boys. If Alenys wants to stay up with her she'll also give Alenys a quickie gun safety course. Then Deez and Marcus can take over, and let Varg heal up some. Does that sound good, and how do penalties work if we get some sleep but not a full night's?

"No idea what kinda creature a williewonka is. Sounds like somethin' outta a rift. An' what's 'chocolate?' Never had that in the CS." Dawn nodded as Varg and the crazy were treated. "Aright. Now then, we gotta keep you tied up on account of you tryin' to kill us but we got no intention of...

Dawn's armor extruded with a thought, and her sword flared into shocking pink existence, but once she realized it was friendly fire, she calmed down somewhat. "Misfire!" she called out, her sword retracting. She knelt by the prisoner. "Hang in there. I got an erms - " She paused, then spelt the...
