"Got info on a guy that is the go to guy at chopping ships. Helps get them rewired and reconfigured and hard to retrieve. At a place called the blast furnace. Anyone want to come with me? I have had enough violence for the day. If there is anyway I can get out of cracking skulls at the Blast F...

Andrew walks back into the safehouse, the exhaustion clear on his face. "Well, I !2d6+2 or a 7 if using Intelligence instead of Wisdom with a few people. I used some of my Observe emotional states in a target. Intense emotions provide a single word or image related to the focus of the feelings....

Notice: +2 Int, -1 unskilled 2d6+1 Andrew was dressed in his 'middle management' outfit and walked with a practiced 'nervous ease', he looked like someone pretending to be confident even though he was scared beyond belief. Of course, with Vi and Sabrek along he was actually quite confident. Perhaps...

Andrew watches Vi try to light the candle as he thinks about any corp that may have 'lost' something recently. Coming up blank he starts to say something just as Kosi lights the candle. Watching her movements he looks for any tale-tell signs that she is not what she appears but is impressed with her...

What's one character goal, beyond "Get off 'Dessa": Does your character want to get rich and retire? Captain their own ship? Explore alien worlds? Fall in love with an unbraked AI? To become head of a major Faction (p211). Maybe climb the ladder, maybe found one. An activity/ game subsyste...

Yes, that is where my Connect and Trade came from.

Heck yea!

Andros Spellcasting: 1d4! Balanor Spellcasting: 1d10! Wild: 1d6! Balanor is not happy with his ship almost getting skewered so decides to make it a bit harder. "Boy, come take the wheel. Keep us on this line for a moment I will be back." Once Andros has the wheel Balanor goes over to the ...

With an

Boating: 1d6!
Wild: 1d6!

of wind and tide Balanor positions the boat to take the most advantage of both. He puts a little extra distance between them and their pursuers. No the rest need to get those ships to stop following and it will all be fine.

Two tokens for task 2.

As Balanor turned the ship another point off the wind he shook his head. "You know Andros, I am sure I have been in worse places than that but I am having difficulty remembering any right now." Andros, standing behind and to the right of Balanor, just grinned slightly. He knew that as long...

So the boat pulls into port and Balanor glares at the gith until the cargo is unloaded and they have cleared the dock. Heading towards the gangway he complains to Andros. "I may not be the best judge but I hate the stink of liars. We need to find a good inn so I can wash, well. Gather our 'town...

Balanor follows the directions of the gith and pilots the ship towards the lock. When the mage pops down to the deck Balanor shakes his head at the blatant show. I am sure there are other mages up there as well but what a waste. Oohh, scary mages! Idiots. He then waits, not so, patiently for the fee...

Yea, sign me up for a Foundry copy.

As you put down in the Trackless Sea the gith told @Balanor your real destination is not Waterdeep. We are going to Skullport. Make you way to the sea caves and I will guide you into the locks. Hearing the change in direction Balanor frowns. " Hey, @Captain Blackfoot. Is there a clause in the ...

As the gith lowers his sword Balanor relaxes a bit. "The first thing we need to know is how many of these floating eyes are supposed to be here. I heard both 'beholder' and 'spectator' being shouted and someone said the number three. What of these are the 'cargo' you want transported? Do you ca...

Balanor runs towards the back of the hold. Seeing the two downed figures he slides to a stop and screams. "Stop! The beholder is asleep and the situation is under control! Now everyone just calm down." Turning to glare at the Gith Balanor continues in a calmer tone. "Next time you dec...

In 2019 I had surgery and took most of the year to get my arm working again. In 2021 I already have two surgeries scheduled. 2020 was not so bad.

Andros actually enjoyed life aboard ship. No one yelled at him, much, and he got really good food, not just table scraps, or worse. And, even though Balanor told him he would just be a cabin boy, he was learning a lot about jammer ships. How to move them in jam-space, how to sail them on water, even...

Balanor hears the continued commotion in the hold and cusses. I need to be down there helping not up here. A monkey could stay 'straight and level' for crying out loud. Oh, right! Looking around he calls for Andros. "Get over here. I need to get down to the hold and you get to actually fly this...

"GUYS!!! WE NEED SOME HELP HERE!!! A TRUE BEHOLDER!!! GUYS... GUYS!!! I DON"T THINK JUST TIBERIUS AND I CAN HANDLE IT!!!!!" Hearing the yell from below deck Balanor is shocked. A beholder? On a magic ship? This is very not good. What to do, what to do? With a spur of inspiration he s...

"Heads up Jarvis we seem to have party crashers raising a ruckus down here! One or mebbe two Spectators roaming around down here though one might still be trapped in a crate if we can have any luck at all today. In case ya didn't know a Spectator be a Beholder Kin so watch yerself!" Heari...

"Mr. Balanor, hold course" Yes, no captain so the bosun takes over. Hold course? Should I jam or stay slow? There are times I hate this crew. Deciding to stay slow Balanor keeps the ship pointed in the correct direction but accelerates a bit. He then keeps a weather eye out for anything t...

Balanor watches as the cargo is loaded. He has enough confidence in his fellow shipmates to know it will be secure so as they finish loading he heads to the helm. Looking at @Balanor the captain said "I want to be offloaded in Waterdeep tomorrow, so no lollygagging." "Aye, cap'n."...

Gambling: 1d6! Wild: 1d6! Balanor tosses his cards on the table and grins. "Close, but my flight will still trigger." As he sweeps the pot to his side of the table he looks at his fellow players. "This is fun but cards is more a way to pass time rather than make money. If you want to...

With the first impact Balanor lurches out of his hammock and is out the door before he is even fully awake. Looking around the deck he sees that the helm is unmanned and dashes to get the ship under control. He spends the next indeterminate amount of time trying to keep the ship from foundering. Dod...

Yeah. How many times will there be a called shot to the helm? With handling, you get better evasion? But what do I know, honestly. Whatever you guys think best :) Thank you for the Recovery Center LOL My understanding is that the Helm toughness upgrade would be added to the ship, not the helm itsel...

Just a few ideas.

Balanor is an elven male with training in both magic and swordplay. In his spare time he was also learning ways to control flying vehicles. He has been disowned by his family and has decided to use his skills in other ways.
