In reply to Theodore McFarlane (msg # 17):
OOC: I got this, Zhouth. Varca is trained to jam-up use comm systems!
Varca isn't too sure about responding to the signal--it could still be a ruse! But
Vultan's sensors
are confirming that the signal
is a
real Distress Signal, and with a
very high probability of accuracy.
But, as a precaution, Varca takes a few moments to configure a
tight-beam transmission, so that his response will
only be broadcast
towards the area of the gas giant--and
not out to
every corner of this star system.
OOC: Varca Lexand rolled 8 using 2d6+2, to send a tight-beam response to Distress Signal.
