While you are waiting on the docks, a new message arrives from your employer. He'll be there in ten minutes, and will pay for dinner at a small corner cafe he gives the location on. He invites you to splurge, as it will be a busy night for all of you.

Searching through the matrix for information, Lady Tonight isn't able to find too much pertinent about the dock itself, although she's able to find a small piece of news related to a dock nearby. Some low-level executive from Ares is in town and has brought his private yacht with him, currently docked at that nearby pier. Going to the dock indicated in the message, each of the four of you arrive at a corner cafe still open for business. No one else is there, but the two people on duty are clearly eager for any customers to seat themselves. A new message arrives from this potential employer, stating he will be there in ten minutes and to get yourselves seated. Dinner will be on him.

Sounds good.

If it is a prank, best to get it out of the way quickly and free up the rest of the day." Marica would ask around, questioning people as politely as she could about the location of this market.

I agree, I'll go ahead and roll to aid another Edit: So I think i just gave Vedast a -1......

You can roll when you want to if you feel it's in character for your character to be searching for details. I'll roll it versus hidden things happening. So #4 pretty much.

"Well, they are mostly pests," the captain says. "Still got a ways to sail before we reach where that wrecked ship might be. Settle in, and let's hope nothing else decides to interrupt our day on the sea." Those words end up being eerily prophetic as afternoon comes, a mostly peaceful day about to be interrupted by something much worse than Nightrats. Kaltis is scanning the horizon with his spyglass when he calls out to you and then barks out a series of orders to the crew. The ship begins to turn, heading towards the direction that the Captain pointed. As you look out over the ocean, the scene begins to come into view: another giant mass of tentacles and flesh hanging onto driftwood while Plaguebearers swarm around it, carried by a crude set of rafts. "They're trying to infest the beast with Nurgle's foul touch! We've got to stop it before they fully control that beast and it comes after us!" Nearing the scene, you can see the discoloration of flesh and pus leaking from the diseased creature as Nurgle's Rot warps flesh and skin. The ship halts, the crew rushing to the cannons in an attempt to kill the creature before it becomes fully mutated. OOC Yes you will get your full toughness back and yes the short term goal suggestion of a worthy fight is a good one to aim for. For this scene, anyone with long range spells can attack the creature to help destroy it, or you can make a DN 5:2 Mind (Ballistic Skill) Test to aid the cannoneers.

Hunnan "Perhaps someone moving through water?" Hunnan asks, keeping a wary eye and ear out for any movement in the room ahead.
