"Way to get punched in the face Darshe. Keep it up!" offers Artemis as a complement. It's clearly a joke however, and it makes Darshe feel somewhat better.
Artemis will Demoralize the creature currently in combat with Darshe.
Artemis starts moving in that direction.
"Then pick a direction and let's get moving." says Artemis as he sheathes the dogslicer.
Aretmis will scoop up the dogslicer and give it a few test swings.
Artemis will also investigate the body, trying to determine how it died.
"We should probably try and discover how it died." says Artemis as he moves towards he body.
Artemis moves up behind Krevlor, then waves the rest of the group into the airlock so he can cycle it.
"We should be able to call up a ships schematic on the bridge. It is why I attempted to set us down nearest to it." said Artemis as he unbuckled his harness once the ship was docked. He then proceeded to strap on a bandolier with a series of pockets on it, about half of which seemed to be full.
No worries Darshe. I know that long combats can get frustrating, and that can be exacerbated in this format. Going to stay Envoy for now. I get the following things from levelling to 2: +6 HP/+7 SP
The Inspiring Boost Envoy Improvisation.
"Okay, hang on while I dock us." said Artemis.
"Where to first? The asteroid or the ship?" asks Artemis over the comms.
"Seems reasonable." says Artemis as he breaks off pursuit and turns the ship back on course.
"You guys want to give chase?" says Artemis over the comms.
Now that the controls were responding the way they should, Artemis rocketed the ship in a series of tight turns, jockeying for position.
Starship battles tend to go a bit slower than other parts of the game, and it's compounded by PBP. I think we're doing okay as we are, but having our science officer scan them to see what their ship stats are would be helpful, especially so I can do my best to position us in the location where our shields are the weakest.
Tired of messing around, Artemis moves his ship until it is nose-to-nose with the other vessel, dodging fire as he does.
The ship does not respond to his commands, and it takes Artemis precious seconds without moving getting the controls to function properly again.
Continuing the trend of "I don't want to get shot", Artemis lines up the ship to set up the gunners for this round.
"We don't have to kill them, just drive them away so we can finish our mission!"
Artemis continues to evade.
[ooc]I didn't, but I at least had a chance! Artemis again takes an evasive maneuver while positioning the ship right in front of the fighter.
Artemis continues his evasive maneuvers, ending so close that the group can almost see into the other ship's windows.
"<<Hang on!>>" shouts Artemis over the shipboard comms as he begins trying to juke and list lazily to the left.
"I'll take the captain's chair, assuming that you don't mind listening to me."
Artemis affixes one of the patches directly to his epidermis.
Not noticing anything out of the ordinary, Artemis boards the shuttle and takes a passenger seat.
Standing, Artemis nods and turns to leave.
"Indeed, it might be helpful to know about Chimara in general: her personality and skill sets more specifically."
"Why don't you start by telling us why you feel you have claim on the rock and the ship?"
"Some freelancers would probably consider stable employment a bribe." offers Artemis.
True to his word, Artemis says nothing but waits for the others to take the investigatory lead.
Artemis sits calmly and waits for the group to be shown in.
I am saving up for a forcefield generator that I can install in myself.
"Since we are representing someone else, and your group clearly has a history with the Hardscrabble Collective, perhaps I can do the talking when we are there? I have no history with them, thus would have no pre-disposed malice towards them. I would be more than happy to allow one of you to take the lead in the questioning here."
"We should either talk to both groups or neither one. We don't want to appear partial to one group over the other, after all."
Not knowing any better, Artemis signs the contract after reading it and then collects his copy.
"Agreed. I look forward to working with you!" as he stands, he offers the ambassador his hand.
"Very well, we shall hear testimony of the positions of the two factions then head to the Acreon and determine what is happening there, as well as retrieve your package."
