Session 010

  • Saamala provides us a bit of information on the base model of the Queen's Grace.
  • Situation Aspects:
    • Hot, Dense Nebula
    • Rag-Tag Fleet
    • Strange Gravitational Fluctuations
  • The two lead ships are about corvette-size but not of a make that Noelle recognizes. Vaguely Nav'Svargan but not quite.
    • They're likely the fighter screen.
  • Isha called target
  • Noelle and Ramiel determined that the missiles and frigate are likely hardened to try to draw fire for the others to get close.
  • Emmet blows up the nuclear missiles creating a radiation hazard.
  • Noelle outmaneuvers the enemy pilots by a landslide and she just hits the break while they fly on by.
  • Firetip very nearly deletes one of the corvettes.
  • Noelle and Ramiel send out the drones and they dive to evaporate one of the engines of the damaged corvette; they're close enough to see the name printed on the ship: Jacquotte Delahaye.
  • Isha scopes one of the enemy ships and gets a target lock.
  • None of these pilots can even hope to keep up with Noelle.
  • Noelle helps Cadriae relax a little bit.
  • The Queen's Grace comes into view, accompanied by three anti-warship frigates.
  • The Queen's Grace instils an inspiring presence in the other pirates.
  • The corvettes concede and bail out.
  • We're outmatched.
  • Isha attempts to call for parlay with the Queen's Grace.
  • They agree, after laughing at us quite a bit.
  • Cadriae will remain on the Ragnarok and ensure that no one attempts to enter.
  • We dock via a umbilicus to the Queen's Grace and have to buzz in at the intercom to be admitted.
  • Weapons are placed on a table that then gets covered by a force barrier.
  • Cira has a bracelet that has some kind of hand-carved cresting waves above a rising set of stars.
  • Captain Menyani of the Queen's Grace is an algata-di.
    • Relatively muted coat of feathers.
  • She carries a small silver trey with five cups.
  • She reveals that Ydre was captaining the Jacquotte Delahaye.
  • We negotiate with Menyani to trade comms tech for the ships and survival.
  • We agree that Cira will be coming with us down to the Ragnarok to demonstrate the tech.
  • The guards tried to board the Ragnarok and were sedated.
  • We introduce Cira and Cadriae.
  • We make contact with Saamala and inform her that we're going to come and drop a comms unit on board to prove our claims with Cira.
  • Isha spots a gravitational tsunami a moment before it hits.
  • We get tossed about and sensors go relatively blind.
  • We've moved much farther than we should have been.
  • Isha reaches out to Feathers of Rust to see if she has any idea where we are via sending data to her.
  • We get near an asteroid to investigate based on an idea Cira has.
  • Evidently we're a day's shift away from where we were.
  • Evidently the only place the White Fleet hasn't hit is Kunja.
  • Cira is formerly White Fleet.
  • Cira reveals that Ydre has been dead for six months; she died at the location where we got thrown to by the gravitational tsunami. They never recovered a body.
  • Cira continues to fight with Isha because apparently there were more feelings there.
  • Lasani and Isha cuddle and help her grieve.
  • We come out of shift and find three White Fleet signatures nearby that attempt to engage us.
  • Their missiles are deleted by a bolt of lightning.
  • Their ships are wiped away by another gravity wave just as we shift out.
  • We finally come out before a wide, circular space station with the ribs of shipyards above and below.
  • Docker is a nearly-complete cruiser.
  • Little Caroline, home of the Angrian Privateers.
