Aboard the Opal Star

Anima delves into Relic’s research, and Bal goes to hit things in the training room. Meanwhile, Vae and Stavias research into Euria 7, the Basilisk, and Nova Station, gathering a wide variety of information that should be useful in the upcoming mission.

The crew gathers for dinner and Spectra gets a request from a friend to clarify some data. That data ends up revealing the location of a long lost ship, the Basilisk. Spectra agrees to help her friend recover the ship in exchange for splitting the credit for the discovery.

Vae and Anima finish their discussion of the importance of jewelry. Bal is informed that he has perhaps been enabling Stavias' dramatic/picky tendencies. Nell continues to be a chaotic instigator. Then the crew talks a lot about the places they call home and what home means to them.

Anima offers to make a special meal for Bal and Stavias and makes some shocking discoveries about the latter’s diet. Vae joins in on the conversation and Nell offers some clarifications, revealing that she is not your ordinary AI. Stavias attempts to learn more about Nell while giving Vae and Anima a chance to ask more questions of themself. Theme music by: https://chesterstudios.net/ Check us out...

The crew finishes their background checks and the interview process, and they decide to let Bal and Stavias join on a temporary basis. Meria leaves to take care of some personal business, choosing to stay behind to lend a hand with the mess Trigger left behind. Bal and Stavias say goodbye to their friend Dandelion while Vae and Anima have a heart-to-heart about the shadows in Vae’s past. Then ever...

The crew gathers to interview and investigate the two potential new crew members before agreeing to let them on. Bal and Stavias are questioned by the crew and the other party members, while Meria does a deep dive into their work history.

The party is dropped off near Cynfrith’s location and together they hatch a plan to catch him unaware. The plan goes off without a hitch and they are able to secure him, rob him, and then humiliate him. Spectra comes to pick them up afterwards and is impressed by their skills, taking the ride back to see what Vae and Anima think of their new friends. Meanwhile, Bal and Stavias discuss their potent...

Stavias and Bal arrive for a meeting with Ms. Yellow when they meet Vae and Anima, who are waiting for word on when the Opal Star will be ready to leave. There is a passive-aggressive standoff until Ms. Yellow arrives and reveals that Cynfrith is nearby. The party has the approval to go and detain him until Almari security forces arrive.

The recently disinherited Stavias Safi and their newly unemployed bodyguard Balimar Quiriri find themselves facing an uncertain future. While deciding what their next move should be, they notice a young Ashenforged who appears to be in a dangerous situation. It leads to an interesting encounter and a fortuitous connection.  Sound effects by: Zapsplat Theme music by: https://chesterstudios.net/ Mus...

It has been a hectic few months since our crew left the Federation, and now they may have some actual downtime. First things first, though. It is time to meet the man behind the curtain.  Sandro Esman, aka Whisper, has invited them to meet him at his base of operations on Almari. It turns out he was more invested in their safety than they realized. Specifically, he was interested in making sure Fa...

Now that the job is done, it is time to lie low until the heat dies down. Faridah, Anima, Vaelena, and Sage spend a week in a safehouse arranged for by Spectra. Research is done, fun times are had, and then contact is established with the crew.  The bounty war may be over, but there is one thing left to take care of. Whisper has requested a meeting with the crew. He seems to be particularly intere...

Now that the blackmail has been dealt with and the hostages have been rescued, it is time for everyone to disappear. Max flies everyone to a spaceport where the Stellar Lance has arranged for all of the hostages to disperse and disappear before being returned safely home.  The party waits to leave until everyone is on their way. Max gives Vae a token, marking her as a friend of the Lance. Scorpia...

The Kanasi has been dealt with. Faridah has been revived. Now it is time to explore the rest of the facility to rescue or destroy whatever they can.  These efforts are interrupted by the return of a group of scouts, most of whom die before they reach the door. It seems one of them was not what they seemed.  With a little help from their surprise new friend, the crew is able to free the prisoners a...

The first part of the fight is over, but it looks like there is more to come. Trigger suspected they would try something like this, so he set a trap for them. He sees this as his chance to get a leg up on Whisper so he can have his way in the underworld.  He monologues. The party ignores him. Then he sicks the robot, a Hunter Kanasi, on them. So starts another fight, and this one may be for their...

The party makes their way to the main part of the compound to find several guards in a wide-open room. Faridah comes up with a charade that gets them a good way into the room before the guards start firing. Then it becomes an all-out gun battle, with Vae investigating the strange robot in the corner.  Including special guest Jake Page as Scorpia Lothrick. Sound effects by: Zapsplat Theme music by:...

Now that they have found the facility, they need to find a way to deal with the guard. They also need to hide his body, obscure the camera, break into the door, and not get blown up in the process.  Then they need to take care of any security inside, starting with the guard room. Faridah uses her new friend to cause some mayhem so they won't notice being locked in, or the fact that their commu...

The time has come to ruin Trigger's day.  The party joins up with Scorpia (played by Jake Page) to take out the blackmail vault while the rest of the crew hijacks his weapon's shipment. Meria helped arrange for them to have access to special equipment that should make the job easier. After some discussion, they agree to take the back entrance so they can take out the guards sooner, rather...

Faridah and Vaelena research Dottie to see if they can find where she is now, without a lot of luck. Thankfully, Meria had better luck gathering information from Whisper about his interest in protecting the crew. Between that and the information from Sash's stolen data ripper, which Tali and Nell are processing, they are able to find two possible targets to take Trigger down a peg or two.  Onc...

Meria has gathered more information on Whisper, though she is still unsure who on the ship he is trying to protect. Sandro is an enigma to even those who know them, but his ultimate goal is to keep the criminal underworld from cannibalizing itself. Valdemar Bentsen (aka Trigger) is much more interested in claiming power for himself. His moves are causing waves that could send Sandro's empire t...

Anima continues to see what information she can find on her donor.  While our new guest continues to appear nonthreatening, it seems she has a tool given by hackers to people they hire to do their dirty work. The crew spends some time debating how to get the data ripper away from Sash without her knowing.  Meria comes in with some more information on Whisper, the mysterious and powerful individual...
