Falmok attempt at Engine Repair

: 3eA+3eD+1eS 1 failure, 2 advantage

(I think we could use some R2 units....)

I forgot to say, but you'd have to go EVA to do that repair (arbitrary GM determination based on what I think makes sense).

You want to try the other one?

shield repair

: 3eA+2eD+1eS 2 failures, 1 advantage

man....

I guess a utility knife just isn't going to cut it...

Please go ahead and IC the mission prep. If you want to have any conversation, I'd like to voice Falmok and Darien.

... we'll have him go check the maintenance bay.. with the dead Gran.. maybe find tools

That's an idea. You find the equivalent of a Toolkit, but it generates an automatic Threat because it is not well kept (at all).

Are you ready? I was waiting for you to post IC.

Cade and Darien will head to the airlock hatch and cautiously open it, and head inside.

oh, ok!

Darien and Cade will attempt to unlock the cells.... calling out the names of the two kids they are looking for.. (also keeping an eye open for guards and slavers...)

Please make a Hard Computers Skulduggery check, and then go ahead and post IC with the results of the roll.

Meaning using the results of that roll to advise your post, not post the results in the IC.

Unlock cells.

: 3eA+3eD 1 success

Nice! You can unlock the cells pretty much at will.

Awesome!

I may change that later on, but for at least this hallway, you can.

How many people have we got?

15. The hall is about 20 yards long, it was mostly empty.

Ok, they are actively looking for the two kids, asking the crowd

Ok, what's the layout?

Hall goes straight to an intersection and then continues on for an equal distance. At the intersection, it splits to the left and the right. In the center of the intersection (which is approximately 7 yards square) is a large turbolift (about 3 yards in diameter), but its operational state is dubious given the backup power.

Ok, they're headed to the intersection. Any other cells on this level?

Yes, where the intersection splits, there are more halls splitting off from the branches (same depth as the first one) with more cells. Some of the nearest cells have occupants, but as you get further away from the center, the halls are less populated. At the end of the branch to your left is another airlock, the other two end in walls.

Cade goes through one section shouting the kids names into the branch hallways, Darien goes the other way, doing the same...
