    You are Elesh Phryx, rogue techpriest and captain of the sword class frigate 'Sword of the Omnissiah'. After an eventful night out at one of the Tortuga system's more eventful locales, you and your bridge officers drunkenly returned to the ship and proceeded to claim a well earned night of sleep. The following day saw repairs progress quickly as your crew numbers swelled with new recruits, while your exotic goods were transported away in exchange for enough carapace armor to increase the effectiveness of your armsmen. Three days after your game of assassin, Sword of the Omnissiah join's Captain Baurse's convoy and heads for the edge of the Tortuga system. Six transports and a pair of raiders break formation as the convoy prepares to enter the warp.

    "Ship is ready for transition to the warp, Captain."

    I think being 12 minutes late is nothing you need to excuse yourself for on 4chan.

    >Dice
    I'm terribly unfortunate when it comes to rolling high with /tg/-dice, so I'll pass for now and hope somebody else will try his luck

    >Other stuff
    What exactly is Quein good at?
    We should probably tell Athe if she wants to talk about anything we, as her friend, are more than willing to listen.

    Really? 7pm PST translates to 12pm GMT for well. Do you have some kind of daylight saving time going on?
    Don't want to be late next thread.

    Your first warp journey sees part of the crew plagued by nightmares, though your cogitators protect your own mind from such disturbing dreams. Master-At-Arms Julin is not so fortunate, though you give Athe leave to help the tortured woman through her ordeal. Quein steps up in Athe's temporary absence, his experience upon the bridge clearly on display to your senses. Cogitators and flesh brain agree, this one seeks command of his own ship some day. They disagree on how this relates to his loyalty, as your flesh brain refuses to accept that ambition and loyalty can coexist without the guidance of the Omnissiah's blessed cogitators. Flattered, your cogitators politely disagree with the flesh brain.

    Nocturinin is a brief journey along the system's edge, the journey shadowed by a wolfpack of miniscule raiders. Captain Baurse speculates that your sword's presence was a fortunate boon, scaring off what was most likely a band of slavers. During your second bout of warp travel you manage to find time to review your study of augmentation, putting the knowledge stored within your memory banks to use. Though your first attempt at a bionic arm ends with a crude result, the arm functions. Time and more practical experience will see your creations refined by the centuries of information stored within your memory banks. Still, the crude arm is praised by your XO, perhaps attempting to balance your scrutiny with the praise denied by your pursuit of perfection. With the sublety of a thermal lance, you skillfully remind Athe that you are available for her at any time, should she need your comfort. After recovering from her laughter, Athe agrees to take up a power sword, but politely refuses the one that ran her through. "Let the ship have it's first trophy under your command, Elesh. I fear that sword's spirit will not accept me after drinking so deeply of my blood."

    Upon arriving at Labado, your convoy quickly makes for the sixth planet and home to the wealthiest of the system's families. Your payment for completion of the escort mission is stored within an hour while Quein scours the docks in search of cargo prices and buyers. He soon returns with his findings, grinning proudly at his results.

    Let's sell one cargo for wealth and one for a Lighter.

    If I remember correctly, the price for one of these was 3 wealth in Tortuga. So this seems to be a rather great deal. We should probably buy 2.

    And shoot that sword that inflicted the wound upon Athe into the next sun. Bad machine spirit.

    We should probably see if Julin has recovered from the ordeal. We're the captain, that means we have to look after the health of our officers and crew.
    If only to maintain efficiency.

    the nightmares experienced by Julin and other portions of the crew ended upon exiting the warp in the Nocturnin system.

    Most warp events will have no lingering effects upon ship or crew once you've left the warp.

    Okay, thanks. I'd still maintain that a personal visit by the captain is in order if one of the officers isn't feeling well.

    can i get a tie breaker on the sale of your goods?
    1 vote for wealth/lighter split
    1 vote for 2 lighters

    otherwise, I'll roll for it.

    a D100 roll for warp events would also be nice
