The Northern Hemisphere is shifting to Autumn.

The southern hemisphere is supposed to be shifting to Spring, but it's experiencing some serious cold windstorms.

Has the Providence been completely picked clean?

Or is there the chance to salvage the odd panel or durasteel plate here and there?

It has not been picked completely clean but it is the ship that Rullarc Mulgin has laid claim to and made to be a large portion of his little slice of Noventa.

With that said, it is possible but certainly advised against picking away at. Lest you incur the rather of a sometimes temperamental individual with some powerful influences. (For exampe: Guards, plenty of guards.)

Maybe you could find the odd piece here or there, if it is something as uninteresting as a durasteel plate you're looking for. Like, scrap tossed from the ship on it's decent. Nothing worth all that much for sure to the average scavenger.

For the swanky party:

[This event will continue throughout the night, but aims to take up mostly LE/EN for major events.]


Just to make sure, you need three ranks in one of these skills to get in without rolling, right? Not three ranks divided between them?

If you fail one roll, can you try another?

Should any rolls made for this be posted in the thread or in PFs?

Primary place is in the thread, if it's a failed roll there can be a little something between you and the bouncer that will at least reward you a little for showing up.

[Immediate thought following this answer. Yes, if you do not get in you can have a thread elsewhere in/around Providencetown at least.]

Knowledge (Warfare). Asking about a specific Admiral, not of Piett, Ozzel, Thrawn, or Sloane level? Daunting difficulty. I'll give a boost die for ex Imperial

Related to this, roll/difficulty for tracking down info about the sudden influx of Imperials? Looking for suspicious newcomers (that aren't PCs) or movements of people, suddenly occupied safehouses, lots of supplies being purchased, or perhaps disappeared people, indicating house theft.

I usually do this as a free mod (you save the cost in credits) on a succesful check, or you can attempt the mod again on a failed check, instead of losing that mod.

And what would advantage do? Perhaps a boost to next modding roll for that attachment if applicable?

Hoping to use Reconstruct the Scene at some point in the thread. Unsure if any setback would be warranted/if we are in the time frame for it to work.

Does a thermal cape help with any of the crazy weather setbacks for Day 4?
