For the folks in my Sky Galleons game in the afternoon, here is the teaser (I'll read over this part again at the start of the game so don't feel like you have to commit it to memory or anything.) :
Each member of the group (Lizzie excepted) has been contacted and asked to attend a meeting in the Library at the Governor’s Palace. As boon companions of adventures past they begin catching up on each other’s recent activities when into the Library comes Lord Sir Robert Jameson, Provisional Governor of the Crown Colony of Syrtis Lapis, accompanied by a portly man with glasses. Captain Umbridge recognizes him as Allan Carstairs, head of the Royal Astronomical Society on Mars. Governor Jameson has a grave look about him.
“Greetings gentlemen, madam. Thank you all for coming today. I’ll get straight away to the point. I’m sure you’ve all read the papers and have heard about the pair of Ether ships, one German and one American, which have vanished over Venus over the last couple of months. I’ve just gotten word that two others have gone missing and we have a confirmation that one of them was, in fact, destroyed entirely.
It appears that a beam of some kind emanated from the surface of the planet and struck one of these ships causing it damage that ultimately proved catastrophic. Their boiler was seen to have exploded causing massive hull damage and the loss of all hands on the ship. The vessel in question was a German ship by the name Königin Luise. Its destruction was sighted by a British research vessel and relayed to an outbound supply ship carrying rubber here to Mars. The British research vessel never made it to our outpost on Venus. That ship was the Challenger.”
Budrajah gasped, “But sir…”
“Yes,” replied the Governor, “my son was on that ship.”

d20 Future- Fallen Earth Characters
Here they are:
Fallen Earth Characters- d20 Future
#1: Commander Tanya Duncan (taken): (Security Chief) Granddaughter of Admiral Tom Duncan, Tanya served with distinction during the Unification Wars. Unfortunately, she was severely injured in a naval action near Gibraltar. She lost both legs and an arm. She became the first person in history to be granted cybernetic replacements. Tanya tends to be good natured, yet sometimes self-deprecating. She was the first person selected for the mission.
#2: Captain Elliot Guthrie- (Mission Commander/ Pilot) Grandson of General Beth Guthrie. Elliot may be the best pilot to ever grace a cockpit and he is very aware of the skill. He has flown numerous missions in the atmosphere and out and commanded the elite Ghost Scramjet Squadron during the Unification Wars. Elliot prides himself on his skill as a pilot and considers himself a gift to women everywhere, yet remains a consummate professional. He has a fear of tarnishing the memory of his families legacy.
#3: Lt. Commander Malcolm Willis (Navigator/ Engineer)- Mal is a reluctant warrior. He joined the military at the behest of his grandfather, Matt Willis, who had served as head of the Carolininian Rangers. He served with distinction during the Unification Wars as a naval engineer. He joined Republican Star Navy shortly after the wars and was instrumental in designing its first vessel.
#4: Matthew (Doc) Bissette (Doctor/ Counselor) – Grandson of Steve Bissette. Matthew did not start out on the path to medicine. He started out as an underwear model. However, he visited a hospital ward during the Wars and managed to talk a young amputee out of suicide. Afterwards, he applied to medical school where he received top honors in both Surgery and Behavioral Studies.
#5: Gunnery Sergeant Pedro Calderon- Grandson of Miguel Calderon. Pedro Calderon is seen as the oddest selection for the mission. His claim to fame revolves around his skill with any and all weapons. The sergeant distinguished himself during the Unification Wars by holding a bunker single handedly for 3 days against a light brigade until reinforcements arrived. Pedro is the epitome of a good marine.

Is that the one near NCSSM, or the other one?
Torras: Errico's lies in Mordor, near the base of Mount Doom. I mean Cary. Someone else can take over from here.

Well I learned a little while ago that my Friday job has been postponed until a later date so I'll be available all day long if anybody has problems, needs directions and so forth. I'll be watching this thread and the Game Day boards from now until Friday afternoon.
And I won't be late for dinner.
