1105-007 - 16:30 - The Free & Clear

To: Captain
From:Jeet
FYI: Med scans of Aslan during meeting will allow 50-70% ID of future encountered Aslan as family to the Lord on Marduk Station. If the Aslan encountered have clan symbols, very likely we can ID with good reliability.

Jeet, thanks, but I'm not planning to get involved with his clan. We've got our charter, and I'm not jeopardizing it without a much better reason.
We'll be ready to jump in just over 3 1/2 hours. Do you want me to monitor the jump drive with you again?

(space for potential radio communications, other final data will come out of the computers during jump)

"Wouldn't hurt, Captain. By the time we finish this trip, I should be quite familiar with the drives, and any eccentricities."

Jeet scans the local net, and attempts to download medical files for Aslan. There hadn't been need in the past to have this on file, but that was an oversight. There could be need in the near future.

Attention, all hands. We have successfully entered jump. Standard transit duties until we break out in Trojan Reach 2019.

Our charter patron has asked us all to attend a mission briefing tomorrow morning at 10:00 in the cargo area. Don't be late.

to Ashe: Yes, Princess, you too.

To Cal:

10:00. Understood.

Jeet checks the files, and looks over the maps. If there is to be a walk-through, some local color should be there. Research says that Thebun Lions are more wary of Humans than likely to treat them as food. However, the crew should see what they look like. He has acquired a few small clips of them, and puts together an encounter. It should open a few eyes. These lions are big! 600 kgs, so almost the size of most large meat source animals. Only these things have claws, teeth and attitude. Because they have Heightened Senses, they are more likely to detect us, before we detect them. Make the encounter at a distance. Because these things are so large, even a distant encounter might seem close. I'll put the sequence in as random, so even I won't know when it is coming.

The Bots have Recon and Environmental Sensors, as well as Advanced PRIS and Auditory sensors. So, nothing with a heartbeat or body heat will likely surprise them. They are calibrated to detect Human-sized creatures in urban and ship environments, but should be able to adapt to wilderness. Anomalies are still anomalies, and Thebun Lions will be more than big enough to show up on Recon scans.

Jeet: [SKILL] Engineer (2D+2) (vs Difficulty 4) [2d6+2 = 8] [+4 Effect] [Average SUCCESS] 20 Minutes. Firing Jump drive.
Plus the Effect of the Astrogation check? Would add +5 DM.
Cal: [SKILL] Engineer (J-Drive) (2D+3) (vs Difficulty 4) [2d6+3 = 9] [+5 Effect] [Average SUCCESS] 30 Minutes. Checking Jeet's work.
