Also, are we all still doing this Storybook?

@Sujana I'm pretty sure! I think I'm the last one to go, and I'm currently working on my post, but after that it's up to @StellaThomas

Ye ye
Also if a mutiny happened, I think Ryder (that is the character I stuck in here, right?) would barely care. He'd go with whoever promises him food and he'd carry on piloting.

Okay great! Now I don't have any specific order in mind- in case you hadn't heard me nattering on yet I'm backpacking at the mo so I only have my phone by way of posting so it can take me a while. Therefore, I'm not going to install any specific posting order or anything like that. Next round is all of us getting into the ship and having our first crew meeting to hear about our first mission... which... hm...

Train heist, anyone? On Mars?

Sounds great! I think pretty much everyone on board likes to steal lol

I think Clec would be good with any front line business. I think maybe he, Ryder, and Jayden would make a good team with a distracting and infiltrating type thing.

SS Selkie: Mission Statement One

Mission Location: Prometheus Railway, Eagle Line, Junction 5212
Target: Passenger and Freight Train Pollux, Registration No. 76822, cars 8-14 (freight)
Objectives: Obtain spacesuit of Captain Matthew Rosen
Description: if you're not a Martian you've probably never heard of St Matthew Rosen. I'm not messing around, he's honestly a saint over there, the first guy to turn up on Mars with a Bible and consecrate a patch of red earth. He brought Christianity to Mars and it thrived there like it never did on earth.

Well. Gregory Reedus. The Holy Reverend. I'm not sure if Rosen is a saint but this guy is far from holy. Fact, I kind of respect the guy. Reverend Reedus dug up a spacesuit and said it was Rosen's, and has been taking it round Mars, taking donations from every farmer trying to carve a living in those dead plains. He says he's building a super cathedral, I'm pretty sure he's going to run with the money. But hey, who am I to judge? Point is, he's only seen half the planet, and he won't get half his money without that suit. I guarantee that he'll pay us at least ten percent to get it back.

The front seven carriages are passenger only, the suit will be somewhere with the freight. Your mission, retrieve it, and bring it back to the Centaur. Jargo will handle the rest.

Guzzler.


This can go into the SB once we get round to it!

Now... who thinks we can do better than just stealing a spacesuit relic?

Random thoughts as plot points:

- can Jay work out how to derail the freight cars and steal all the treasure?
- are we going to drop out of the ship or how we gonna get there?
- who's going to break a bone for Fletcher to reduce in the field?
- what do you want to bet the suit is not, in fact, in the freight car? What do you want to bet someone is *wearing* the suit?
- hostage exchange?

I'm just spitballing. But I intend for literally none of this to go as planned, but I still think it would be nice if we came out with something a little extra from it ;)

I might start a post tonight, everyone feel free to post whenever!

Clec would totally break a bone for Fletcher. His own or someone else's? Also, what do you mean by reduce?
