Chapter 3- Amazonas

[Mephistophilis]

Alex grabs his electric torch and staggers to the engine house.

[Starspawn338]

Butch will yield the wheel to Harry.

"Just keep her in the middle of the river and I'll see what's making that god awful noise in the engine room. He says as he hurries off.

[Snapper]

Crowley searches the waters around the boat with his flashlight, trying to see what they just crashed into. (If he can tell which direction the crash came from, that's the side where he'll start looking.)

[kabukiman]

Butch smells something burning and Harry hears what seems a waterful getting near...


Crowley: spot hidden roll please
Butch and Alex: roll mechanical repair.
Harry: roll drive boat/navigate

[Mephistophilis]

Alex stares at the engine with little idea of what he is looking at.

Alex Mechanical Repair: 10%,[dice]0[/dice]

[Mr. Handy]

Harry tries to keep the boat from going anywhere near the falls, but he has no idea how to work the controls.

OOC,Navigate roll (60% skill) to keep the boat from going over the waterfall: [dice]0[/dice]

[Starspawn338]

OOC,Mechanical Repair 60 Talent Handy Bonus Die for Mechanical Repair rolls [dice]0[/dice] [dice]1[/dice] That's a 10 with the bonus die which is an Extreme Success.

Butch follows the smell of smoke and quickly finds the problem.

[Snapper]

Crowley:

Spot Hidden 60%,[dice]0[/dice]

OOC:   Regular Success.

Crowley peers suspiciously about the waters of the river with his flashlight.

[Snapper]

OOC:   If it would be useful, Crowley could spend 2 luck points to make that a hard success.

[kabukiman]

OOC: Crowley: not necessarily


Crowley sees the ssaveboats are far away, it seems the crew abandoned the ship in them. And your ship just crashed in a some rocks and is starting to sink (slowly). They need somehow to get rid of the water.
Butch manages to discover the problem and repair the engine in an impressive time! The power is back and now they can avoid the waterfall... if they manage to control it.
Henry cannot change the direction of the boat.

[Mr. Handy]

"I can't steer the boat!" calls Harry, struggling in vain with the helm. "Butch, you're needed up here!"

[Mephistophilis]

Alex looks desperately around the boat. 'We're sinking, where's that water coming from?' he shouts and tries to find a bilge pump or something else to bail out the water. With the sound of the rushing water increasing in volume he bellows at Butch 'does this thing have a reverse?'

[Snapper]

Crowley hastily searches for cracks or holes in the hull that he might be able to plug with cloth or wood.

[Starspawn338]

"I can't steer the boat!" calls Harry, struggling in vain with the helm. "Butch, you're needed up here!"

"I'm coming." Butch shouts as he runs out of the engine room and back to the wheel. All boats have pumps in case they take on water. You need to find the pump and start getting the water out while I find a safe place for us to stop and make repairs."

Once back on the wheel, Butch will attempt to get the boat away from any rocks and especially any waterfalls.

OOC,Pilot Boat 35 [dice]0[/dice] Another extreme success! Woot!

[Mr. Handy]

"Thanks!" says Harry as he runs back to look for the pump to start getting rid of the water.

[kabukiman]

OOC: Roll Spot hidden for all those looking for a pump (but someone must still control the boat), and for Crowley who is looking for some object to plug the boat.

Butch manages to change the course of the ship and leave the waterfall away, but more water is entering the boat.

[Mephistophilis]

Alex Spot Hidden: 25%,[dice]0[/dice]

OOC:   Regular success

[Mr. Handy]

Harry can't find anything of use.

OOC,Spot Hidden roll (55% skill) looking for a pump: [dice]0[/dice]

[Snapper]

Crowley:

Spot Hidden 60%,[dice]0[/dice]

OOC:   Hard Success!

Crowley, motivated by a desire to avoid carnivorous goldfish, hastily searches for useful items by torchlight.

[Starspawn338]

Butch will stay on the wheel trusting his companions to stop or counteract the leak.
