Took me awhile to think of a new mech design, but resigning now.

Callsign: Hive
Pilot skills: Missile Massacre
Mech: An incredibly thick mech that requires three people to operate; a pilot to control the body, a gunner to control the weapons, and a general engineer to reload and perform various other functions. It is humanoid in design, although headless and armless.
Mech traits: Target Tracker
Weapons: "Massacre" LOS seekers, "Hornet" Heat-Seekers

You've been fairly unlucky, Ahra. Still, according to my notes one more 8 and you get a skill-up.

MARCUS RAUST

You enter the building and immediately look around for materials to fortify the building with. (5 total) You gather up some light materials.

NAZARA

You decide the best thing to do is search the grounds for useful items to take with you. (6+2) You find the kitchen and, surprisingly, some intact jars. They contain jams of different sorts, and you pack them away to eat later. (Nazara gets 3 Jam Jars!)

MALLEUS RAULAT

You, too, decide to search the building. (5) You find the kitchen just after Nazara leaves it, holding some jars of jam. You look around and eventually you find some dried jerky; she took the only things worth grabbing for the most part. (Malleus gets Strip of Jerky!)

WYMAR SANE

Following Nazara and Malleus's lead, you look around, although you go upstairs. (8) Tucked away in a corner of an otherwise empty room is a small vial filled with a silvery substance. It looks like it is slimy from the way it moves when you tilt the vial, but you're sure you've seen this before. When consumed, it restored a small amount of mana. (Wymar gets: Minor MP Potion!)

PIERRE Dé GRASSE

You clear a space in the common room and go through your usual routine. (5) You practice but you don't feel you really learned anything new.

FRIAR GREENMOORE

While Marcus works on physically fortifying the building, you work on spiritually fortifying it. (8, 13 total) With your knowledge and a handful of drawn runes, you ensure no incorporeal monster is going to cross the threshold of the inn.

MALAKAI RITT

You head out with Avira to hunt for food. (7) Your eagle is able to catch many rabbits and bring them back to you before the animating magic runs out, and you take them to the inn.

GENERAL

The party cooks the rabbits for dinner. (Party's HP is restored; 4, no left-overs. 3, 3, 1 = 7 vs 13) Through the night, they were awoken a few times by banging on the fortifications, but nothing got through, and they were able to sleep in peace. In the morning they set out along the path once more, and eventually found a divergence. One fork led through the woods; the other led to a small dock on a large lake.

Panting heavily, Dom watched the thing fall over. Good... bastard... she thought as she fell to her hands and knees, too tired to even stay standing. Damn it... just need to catch my breath... She managed to fall back clumsily into a sitting position so she could better keep an eye on the walker and rested for the moment.

I'm considering doing it and having a party split of four and four. I don't really want to force y'all to do anything, though; for the most part I'm just here to guide the storyline along and roll.

The bartender was serving someone else. That was fine, he could wait for a few moments. The thing that sucked was getting cold-shouldered. Maybeh e could still save this, though. He laughed a bit self-consciously and shook his head. "All right, I admit it, that was a terrible line. If you're interested, I have many worse ones I could try."

I think I'll continue to be useless for the moment.

Whoops, my bad. I thought it was five points per 200Kn. I see now that's 200 lbs. So, uh, 1 point per KN... I'll modify my turn.
