OOC: CHAPTER 5 - At Sea

[Ewoklord]

Would it be okay if I said that I accompanied Dr. Green to the deck?

[Anatomist]

Ha-ha your both hilarious /not

[Job]

Would it be okay if I said that I accompanied Dr. Green to the deck?

Yes,that would be perfectly reasonable. Harm's way is waiting for someone to be put in.

*laughs at Anatomist* HEY! Aren't you supposed to be on vacation? You shouldn't be looking at what we're doing behind the curtain!

Job.

Yeah had a trip into town to get some stuff for the cabin. Did some driving to find a open wifi network to check my mails
And btw, im back scum!

[Job]

And btw, im back scum!

A term of endearment for your Keeper? Are you trying to flatter me so that George and Oyvind will benefit?

Job.

[Job]

I was expecting that we'd hear from Ewoklord, telling us of his amazement that I was going to kill off Douglas Orgelfinger!

So far, James Starkweather has succeeded in his CON X 5 rolls to rescue Doug. James' rolls

It's going to be close, I think...

And if Starkweather dies, events aboard the Gabrielle would take a dramatic shift.

Job.

[Job]

Wow! Starkweather was almost in serious trouble himself! With slight bonuses from his facemask and brandy, anything over an 85 would've sent him to the floor. Hopefully, he'll soon be finished dragging Doug's body to safety.

Job.

[Anatomist]

Hes made out of iron. Im not worried.

[Job]

Hes made out of iron. Im not worried.

I hope that you are right. I'd hate to lose such a wonderful man that folks love to hate!

Hey Anatomist, for some reason the link to Oyvind's photo appears to be having trouble. I can see George Barrow's photo, but not Oyvinds. Strange...

[Ewoklord]

Oh, sorry. I've been watching everything, hoping I don't die. But if I do, I sure predicted it!

I'll bet anyone that I'll be the first to die.

[Job]

Oh, sorry. I've been watching everything, hoping I don't die. But if I do, I sure predicted it!

Keep the faith, Ewoklord!

And just to clarify, based on the rules for the ammonia gas that I referenced earlier, if Starkweather rolls greater than a 95 on 1d100, then he falls to the floor, unable to help himself (similar to what happened to Katie and Doug). If he rolls between 86 and 95, then he must get to the main deck immediately and would need to drop Doug to do so (which would not be good for Doug...).

I'm reluctant to make Starkweather's next roll. I hesitate when my cursor is hovering over that "Roll the Dice" button...

Job.

[Job]

James continues to do well!

Although hmm, I wonder if Doug's body took any damage from Starkweather's rough treatment, being pulled and heaved around a corner in the reefer hold...

"Uhhnn," James groaned as he sat up, rubbing the back of his head...

I guess that this proves that Starkweather does have a thick skull!

Job.

[Job]

I'm happy to report that James Starkweather not only made his FIFTH consecutive CON X 5 roll, but he also made his Listen roll to hear Oyvind yelling for him!

Job.

[Anatomist]

Did Starkweather and Øyvind managed to set the hose in place?

[Job]

Did Starkweather and Øyvind managed to set the hose in place?

Unfortunately, not yet. They had each run in opposite directions before finishing that task.

Job.

[Anatomist]

Amonia checks (
1d100=7,
1d100=65,
1d100=26,
1d100=64,
1d100=8)

[Job]

Good rolls, Anatomist! You managed to get the hose in place.

Job.

[Job]

Katie hurries to Starkweather's side and quickly does an excellent job of aiding and reviving him, lending him her own oxygen mask as he obviously needs it more.

Phew! Now THAT is quite a roll, Mr. Handy! Very much out of character for you.

Job.

[Mr. Handy]

Yeah, my luck is extremely streaky. If I start rolling a whole bunch of 50s and 51s, I'd be alarmed.
