Necronaut Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 @Lysimachus, just as a reminder, the Penitent, who I have named thus to make it easier to refer to him in the OOC and GM posts hasn't actually introduced himself yet, nor interacted with anyone save an NPC (Valkyrie). Have fun coming up with a witty nickname for him. ;) Lysimachus and Mazer Rackham 1 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/375214-dh1e-the-damocles-contingency-ooc/page/11/#findComment-5857234 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lysimachus Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 (edited) I think Reynard was thinking that if the second question everyone asks (or at least thinks) when they meet you is "Wow, what did you do wrong?", that may be problematic if you're trying to appear to be a good, law-abiding Imperial citizen… But having said that, it now seems there are definitely names - such as Axel McMurderchops - that might cause much more worry to Damocles' general population? And I guess if you're Penitent, you might have done terrible things… but at least you're sorry about having done them? Edited August 15, 2022 by Lysimachus Mazer Rackham 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/375214-dh1e-the-damocles-contingency-ooc/page/11/#findComment-5857378 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that film - and in a related note, I know US Marine Corps Gunnery Sergeant, and he's called Brent (and loves the film too). I leaned that "How High?" is apparently acceptable as a term of address for such a chap.

Mazer Rackham Posted August 16, 2022 Author Share Posted August 16, 2022 Cheers Beren. So, three illustrious passengers on the lander, and four, hard-working lads, on the train. I'll let anyone drop in response posts, or boarding or what-have you. Voyager will be piloting the lander, otherwise, the train riders will be escorted to an unmapped rail station where they'll enter an empty carriage.

I'm working on the premise of it being the same evening, but if players want to wait for the morning (for rest or whatever), that is acceptable and I can manage that without any changes. I won't penalise the players for waiting, if they wish, and assume that 14 days deadline starts at 0000Hrs the day you go out.

Trokair Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I am fine with whatever the others want, was just trying to work out passed time for any narrative post in respect of getting onto/being on the train.

Mazer Rackham Posted August 16, 2022 Author Share Posted August 16, 2022 No worries - it's about two, maybe three hours (with all the prep etc) since you entered the Vault (the facility). My original plan was to have you arrive in the Hive at midnight, for dramatic and practical reasons, but it's malleable.

There are two trains, both mechanicum operated. They are mixed carriage, coming in from Hive Secundus and out of Primus (you came out on this one). Both carry worker menials, trading house reps, etc. They also carry freight, supplies and other goods. A private cabin in the fifth carriage will be forced open for exactly five seconds for your entry as it comes through (the train is not meant to stop, but it must slow to navigate the platform). A Challenging (+0) Agility Test will get you aboard. Mind the gap.  Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/375214-dh1e-the-damocles-contingency-ooc/page/11/#findComment-5857825 Share on other sites More sharing options...
