Session 2 Epilogue

Session Recap & Rewards The red sky starts to darken as you all sit around the long, wooden table in the town square of Colby’s Church. The dark red and blue rings slashing through the sky above New Avon provide a beautiful myriad of colors across the barren landscape. The small town sits peacefully in the middle of a patch of farmlands, once simple plains and grasslands. The flat landscape is only broken by the tattered frame of the Salter’s Peppers resting at an angle outside of town on the sand-covered rocks surrounding the farmlands.
Mayor Jesse Monson and his wife Stephanie personally thank the crew of the Salters Peppers for all they have done to reunite their family. The cheerful townsfolk gathered around have nothing but smiles for the heroic strangers who brought home their lost children. Their unbridled joy is almost enough to make a Spacer appreciate being on soil. Plates are piled with vegetables and slices of meat as Zebulon and Judith recount the tales of their time in the cages from kidnapping to freedom.
Warren quickly finds himself surrounded by a captive audience after his natural charisma shines through. Farmers and their families listen with rapt attention as he speaks with an authority and earnestness they find rare in their humdrum lives in the farm. Downtime Aspect: Rapt Audience
Anna finds a friend in the Mayor’s wife, Stephanie, rather quickly. Between demonstrating her amazing technology and saving her daughter, the woman is eager to do whatever she can to help Anna spread word of her amazing creation. The briefest demonstration of her technology soon leads to the Mayor’s wife begging Anna to show all of the town’s women at a party she wants to throw for her this week. Downtime Aspect: The Ladies of Colby's Church
Kyra returns from gathering soil samples with a new addition to her collection. She finds farmers more than happy to talk at length about their crop rotation, cycles, and their soil. Their lives revolve around maintaining the grasslands and plains while keeping the surrounding sands from engulfing their farms, leading to a unique perspective and techniques. Downtime Aspect: Life in the Dirt
Jason is watched closely during dinner and then followed around by a pack of small, fascinated village children. They seem to find him utterly awe-inspiring after the tales of Zebulon and Judith of his combat prowess. Despite the potential annoyance, one of the children sparks a feeling of fondness and trace of a lost memory in the Cyborg's mind. Downtime Aspect: Feeling of Familiarity
Dash sits back and watches the festivities with a smirk not uncommon on his face. The more observant viewer notices his fingers twirling a small slip of paper between his fingers as his eyes stare thoughtfully into the throng of villagers, seemingly a million miles away. Downtime Aspect: An Outstanding Bounty
George eats silently in the town square with the rest of the group. His eyes flick back to the battered, shot up frame of the Salters Pepper often with a look of concern and the still unanswered blinking message on the coms panel. Downtime Aspect: A Destroyed Ship and an Unanswered Summons
---The Dockmaster's Call---
After the festivities end and the group gathers after dinner, Dash and George receive a call on their com from the Dockmaster of New Avon Spaceport. He finished his initial assessment of the Star of Bernadette and compared those damage reports already taken of the Salters Peppers.
He says that he can get the turret mounted and either the hull, Zip drive, or Landing Gears repaired in 3 days. He’ll give the +3 Merits for the salvage of the Star. If he’s given a full week to work he should be able to repair them all but will only give +1 Merits for the remainder of the scrap. He drones on about the various damage and disrepair on the Star to justify his decision. He asks which he’d rather you’d go with.
---OOC--- What I need from you:
Please let me know ASAP if you’re voting to stay for 3 days for partial repair or 1 week for full. You could also leave in 1 day if you're a brave soul after Aris finishes the fake IDs. Aris would also like what fake name you want on these new Krasian IDs (we can randomize if needed though).
You’ll get 1 Downtime Action for 3 days or 2 actions for the week. Keep in mind they could be specific (ie: Host a makeup party), prepping/creating a future advantage (Cracking the ID), or vague (Drinking in a tavern). Please let me know by next Tuesday what Downtime Actions you'd like to take while you're on New Avon so I have plenty of time to work with you and get back to you.
We will pick up on the 9th as y'all head back onto the Salters Peppers in 1, 3, or 7 days and head off of New Avon.
TLDR, by next Tuesday: Fake Krasian ID Name - Vote for Partial Repair (3 days) or Full Repair (1 Week) - Downtime Action 1 - Downtime Action 2 (If 1 Week) -
