In the far-off, northern island of Mended Horn, the party there has learned that they face an enemy they have dubbed "The Traveller." They have decided to go to an old, abandoned village there in hopes of rescuing some communist sailors.
In Baltimare, Dark Star tries to get things in order, while Virgin Flame looks for her old friend.

Silver nods. "I did not know how comfortable you were with language. Figured I would give you option of which language to speak in. Now...are you alone out here, Patient Pipette? Were there any other ponies or other creatures here before our group arrived?"

Hmmmm. Now Silver is a little worried that Brie might have actually shot that other pony, if he panicked and tried to run. "Do you know where this other pony is hiding?"

Silver nods, and heads into the bombardier's station to look for the other pony. He calls out, "Это безопасно, вы можете выйти сейчас. Мы услышали сигнал бедствия Черной Пяты." - "It's safe, you can come out now. We heard the Black Heel's distress call."

A white maned head with grey ears pokes out of a whole near the flight engineer's station, then revealing a grey pony stallion.
Pipette says it is safe to come out in Severyanan.

She takes the rafts and places them on the floating disk, believing that they could help with extraction.
She checks the survival kit and the medical kit, searching for any valuable items.

While it's in the turret, yes but with a penalty. Outside of the turret... It's a size issue.
It would also have to be removed from the turret to be taken. Not impossible by any means, but not without effort
The map is a nautical map of the Rocky Seas, although this one also goes down further towards Albion. it shows shipping lanes, as well as what seems to be a flight plan that avoids Stalliongrad and Nova Griffonia.

"I knew better than to go to sleep. Many of us did, in the science crew. It had been giving us dreams. We thought we were more vulnerable than the rest of the crew. There was a disagreement with Science officer Light Water, and a griffin from the international contingent, and a few of his crew, who wanted to try to awaken the creature. We wanted to keep it sedated and study its powers, or disect it if possible... It was just after nightfall, when Light Water had more access to it than we... We did not lock the hold well... It seems that other ponies were affected. The ships crew. The marines. They held a sort of mutiny. But they must not have been fully conscious... we did not realize what it was doing, or how far it had gotten."

"Yes, this plane had several. The radio is long range and can be heard further away than short wave."
Hmmmmmm...okay. The plan currently in motion:
1.) Find the Commissar, rescue him if necessary, and recruit him to the group band of creatures.
2.) Have Posey reanimate the leviathan whale skeleton, for aid against the Traveler and/or disabling the ship the GRU came here on.
3.) Find and rescue the Airponies, and assess if the airship is in a repairable state or if its engines need to be scuttled.
4.) Go to the Kostroma, kill the Traveler, use magic to send a message out across the island to the formerly-possessed ponies to return to the ship ASAP, and escape the island with as many of the defecting commies as possible.

Every addition pair of hooves will help, and we'll need all the help we can get. The Commissar is also the most knowledgeable pony on the island both about the Kostroma and the communist forces. As for the order, the Airponies are by far the most distant of the three targets prior to the Kostroma.

No. The airponies should be first. They are the entire purpose of this mission. Everything else is an afterthought.

The GRU and the Traveler are distracted right now, but I don't know if we'll have the time to do all of that backtracking. It's also far more likely that the Airponies will stay where they are at while the Commissar is more likely to move if we don't get to him quickly.

"I should remind you that we have a priority mission here. We can deal with these matters after we get to the downed airship."

"Black Weave. Useful on living things. But this does not live. It looks like an animal, if an animal could survive space, but..." She stops speaking

Hmmmmmm...potentially more hooves that could help us with this fight against the Traveler. So, in comparison to the Commissar, the leviathan whale skeleton, and the Airponies, how distant would this village in the south bay be?

"Are you saying it is undead? I have other ways of dealing with that." She says

"You would be surprised. There are countless living creatures dwelling beyond the void who are able to survive in the absence of atmosphere, only a few of which have been properly documented. That is a topic for another day though." She says, looking wistfully at the night sky
She pauses
"Really, the one class of creatures I do not have a reliable spell for is golems... Constructs are so difficult to destroy, and are not nearly as easy to control as the undead. I have not seen very many golems lately though."

Hmm...sounds like it's the closest target to the Kostroma. We should go there last before going to the Kostroma.
Silver smiles apologetically at the mare. "Does it have mouth, or other orifice? We could detonate grenade from inside of it."
>>186924
Kira perks up a bit at the topic of discussion. "Oh, what about using a spell to dispel magic in order to kill a golem! Aren't they animated using magic? If you dispelled the magic keeping them together, wouldn't they just fall apart?"

"But rather nasty to deal with myself..." she thinks to herself, silently

Yeah, I would really like to do that, but Posey is only lvl 4, and I don't get nice things at this level.

"Those could be our first and second options. I would prefer more explosives than a single grenade, and getting close is alone a hazard according to the documents."

"We have some grenades at our disposal. We could bundle them together to combine their explosive power. Unfortunately our ability to gather resources is limited, otherwise we could make some homemade explosive devices like nail bombs. Hmmm..."

Looking at the torpedo in the plane, Silver wonders to himself: how difficult would it be to dismantle the heavy torpedo in order to acquire its warhead?
>>186930
Kira merely tilts her head at the necromantic mare, and flicks her tongue.

Hopefully no. Silver explains his thoughts to Brie. "Could you remove torpedo warhead, and then using radio within this plane make remote detonator to attach to it? We could force it inside Traveler, detonate it remotely, and it would kill Traveler while his body would absorb force of explosion, preventing Kostroma from being destroyed as well."

Well, if it's not undead, and it's not a construct, all the other available creature types (outsider, aberration, magical beast, dragon, elemental, etc; with the exception of Deathless which is basically just "good undead") should count as living things for the sake of spells (except for anti life shell, which is weird) and effects. I'm just checking for the sake of tactics and planning how to destroy it.
Posey pauses to consider her plan
"If it is either undead or a construct, I should know when I see it. Until then, I remain confident in my entropy-based attacks."

No, it's because of how Posey is asking the questions. Posey asks questions, but then asserts knowing more than the one she's asking.

"Quite a bit more energy. I... we fear it's been around for significantly longer than just roaming around the Lunar Sphere. We are not the first to try to kill it, if you will.

Silver: "It perhaps also just means that those who tried before us were not creative enough. I do not know what realm it came from was like, but in this realm, everything can and eventually must die. While here, it has to abide by laws of this universe. And no matter how thick its hide is, I have yet to meet creature whose insides are as hard as their outsides."

Brie will attempt a little eye-play with Garv. What he will attempt to communicate through facial gesture and body language is that in that the Traveler likes dominating a geoup, it might behoove to have a group on hand to maybe distract it with.

Staring at the torpedo, Brie has a moment of reflection. He thinks about where he ginds himself, the situation he's in what with the Traveler and all this madness. He thinks about these ponies and griffon he is cavorting with. So much of this seems off to him. But he banishes such thoughts from his mind, pulls off his mask so he can breathe better, closes his eyes, and takes a deep breath.
"Centipede," he mutters, before he starts going to town. His last interactive moment will be for him to not even bother to address anypony, but simply to call out: "I trust I dont need to emphasize how important it is that I'm not disturbed?"

"A .38 would be better for self-defense. Thank you, Brie." He then leaves the batpony alone. If Brie gives the .38 to Pipette then he will keep the derringer and its ammunition.

It is suppressed, with a filter attached,... probably only 6 rounds of supression left in it.
"Oh, here," he says absentmindedly shifting to allow access to certain pockets.
He tosses out 2 6-round reloaders

We're all good now, though. Everything's settled.

"Go on then, ye bastard," Brie quips, slightly revealing 'his' accent, but wiping a frenly tear he'll never admit to

Silver smiles at Brie, and gives him a nod. "Thank you, my friend. We will see you soon."
Now just gotta wait for GM pone to get on. Also maybe at least one other player.

It was late, something was said that just caused me to give up. Things have been sorted, apologies have been made, we're all good now.
Especially now that it's the morning and I'm feeling a lot better, I see the point that you're making about going to the Airponies first, and it's a good point. I hope though you can see the point that I made about time being a factor as well.

Okay, first of all, why are you a fun-vampire? Why do you shit on other people having fun? The party has come upon a new area that has things to explore, and it has an NPC that they can interact with. At least one player actually does want to explore and interact with that NPC, and to furthermore, consider options for next moves coming from that NPC. Okay, you don't want to interact with the NPC and you don't give a shit about the bomber. Great. Good for you. You only care for combat or whatever, we get it. Can you sit quietly while other people actually try to play the game rather than say shit like this post. Jesus Christ. And this bitching is always out of character. Just play your character or don't, and stop bitching that Silver is actually trying to, you know, play.
Second, Jesus Fucking Christ, you know I make new threads on the odd millenial posts. You know this. You have been told "stop making large numbers of sequential one line posts, all it does is walk up the numbers." And yet we have this >>186991

Seven posts in a row, all immediately before 187000 which are basically guaranteeing I'm not getting the 187000. Why can't you just accept that everyone else is asleep? Why can't you wait a minute before posting so that instead of making three posts because you think of something new, you only make the one post?

Oh, will you look at this. >>187000 was actually your post, which was just a wasted "noted" which you actually deleted, as was 187001 and like six posts after the millennial post. What the fuck is your issue?

>fun vampire
Not my intention. But a legit criticism.
The ponies in question have established backgrounds. Silver - for example - is ex military iirc. But no offense to his player, but he doesnt display the decisiveness one might intuit from ex military. There may be reasons for this, it hasnt been explored yet.
I'll grant that that post - among many - have crossed a line, thats party to why I wanna chill for a minute.
You are correct
>The posts
The first one makes perfect sense, the second was a skill check because he lied to her face, and the third was a follow up
4 is where I decided to let go and let you guys have fun, 5 was a follow up to that, and 6/7 was where I hoped aomeone was still online

My issue is, I'm impulsive with a poor recognition of boundaries. I very often make posts I 'think' are a good idea, only to realize "No, that was actually a really douche thing to post", moments/hours later.

"Thanks for the offer but nah, I'm as dumb as bricks. I probably wouldn't be able to make much sense of it," Virgin said. "Just give me you're expert opinion on who you think is most likely to have done it and I'll ask them for it back."

So, are we going to get the airponies?
Posey packs up her loot and readies to go.
Posey packs up her loot and readies to go.
Let me backtrack so I can tell what is going on.
Posey hears fragments of the conversation Silver has with Pipette, before deciding to heed Silver's insistence to find this new pony.
Posey approaches Pipette.
"The Commissar, Black Heel was it? Are you certain that he is of sound mind? Has he not been taken by the Traveller already?" she inquires
"And you say that he may help us defeat it?"
She pauses
"Special Forces have arrived on this island, and seem to have labelled sailors of the Kostroma deserters. Perhaps Black Heel can speak to them, if he has not already been enthralled. The Special Forces complicate my our efforts to escape this island safely, whether or not The Traveller is defeated, so it is a matter that I hope we could help each other with."

Cavaliere does a quick search of the aircraft, as he hasn't looked through it like the others have.
