Taryton can been seen as the group flies close to it. The buildings are all covered in trees or vine. However the structure of the town was made to last, seen by the fact that the buildings have not crumbled away.

The woods around the small village are also overgrown and the party can see a deer like herd running through land running away from the ship.

"What a dump!" scoffs Alina, cradling her new Hyram Glory sniper rifle. The fact that it was named after her uncle amused her.

She scanned the scene ahead, alert for any danger.

Today: Lady Alina rolled 2 using 1d20.  Perception + Observe = 7. Success. Spending 6 VP to meet resistance, leaving 1 VP.


Current VP: 1. Troupe Coffer; 13 WP

Success, but I have insufficient VP for resistance, so I'll keep the VP

In the cockpit, Alina points to some white smoke coming from one of the buildings and what looks like a cultivated garden. "Looks like this place is not as deserted as we hoped for..."

OOC Have we landed? Are we getting into position? Salos will want to offer everybody a blessing before we split up and get into positions

OCC Salos will have time to bless everyone.

"Well we are here lets see what we have." Donavan states as he lands the ship.

Before they depart, Salos turns to Penelope and, pressing his hand to her forehead, he performs the Cleansing Rite on her, "May the Pancreator cleanse you and guard you from evil"


I spend 1 VP to cast
Faith + Focus + 2VP = 17, rolling 3, success against effortless resistance
This gives Penelope +2 on all resistances vs all "evil" attacks

VP 4, WP: 1


He then turns to each member of the party in turn and, tracing the jumpgate cross on their foreheads, says "May the Prophet bless you in this task", performing the rite of the Prophet's Holy Blessing.

Rolling for each party member:
Captain Donovan
Faith + Focus = 15, rolled 15
Critical success, gaining 15 VP and a WP
VP: 18, WP: 2

Gerry:
Faith + Focus = 15, rolling a 19
It's a failure, but I'll spend 4VP making it a success, but gaining no VP

VP: 10, WP: 2

Frank:
Faith + Focus = 15, rolling a 3 - Success
Prophet's Holy Blessing is easy resistance, I figure this will be +2 resistance since it's a broader task, so I will spend 1 VP to cast and 3VP to overcome resistance

VP: 9, WP: 2

Bada-Gar:
Faith + Focus = 15, rolling an 8 - Success
Spending 4 for casting and resistance

VP: 13, WP: 2

Kato:
Faith + Focus = 15, rolling an 11 - success
Spending 4 for casting and resistance

VP: 20, WP: 2

Kalas:
Faith + Focus = 15, rolling a 1 - success
Spending 4 for casting and resistance

VP: 17, WP: 2

Lady Alina:

Faith + Focus = 15, rolling a 4 - success
Spending 4 for casting and resistance

VP: 17, WP: 2

John:

Faith + Focus = 15, rolling a 6 - success
Spending 4 for casting and resistance

VP: 19, WP: 2


OOC Is there an upper limit to how many VP we can have at any given time after resolving maneuvers??

Thanks, much appreciated!

It's my understanding that; When you’re playing in present tense or narrated time, your cache is emptied after you’ve determined the impact of your roll.

You're welcome! Remember that rolls are only favorable until the first success.

We've been playing it that VP accumulates within a scene, but that was a lot of maneuvers, so I'm happy amending, if needed.
