Katrina Scintilla's page

Has this game been reported?

Katrina goes off station for a while, somehow convincing the station's systems that she left earlier.

There ... that should account for my absence over the last week

I am SO doing a crash course in Azlant when we get back says an exasperated Katrina.

Thanks

Katrina is still listening to the translator.
She's wanting to pluck you like a chicken Roquefort?

Taking ten to trick CR17-

trick damage: 6d8 ⇒ (1, 5, 3, 7, 7, 1) = 24

She sighs as that shot misses too.

We're doing day jobs?

Katrina tries to shoot the High Priest again

And a quid hoc to you too

She fires at the high priest.

Yeah ... Agreed

Katrina has a wireless earpiece in one ear, listening to the tetriad translator's interpretations. She actually giggles at it's translation of what Neroo said which was Allow us to scan the services before our investigation continues. At least the telepathic message made more sense so she moves to do that.

Ita

perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (4) + 21 = 25

She is picking up words as she goes.

Katrina has a go at opening the door.
engineering: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (14) + 14 = 28

Katrina finally manages to get a translation of that popup.

Citizen warning!

The law of the Senate and the people of Atlantis has decided that you must confirm the following acceptance of data storage and cookies in order to be able to use this site.

I detest these things at my peril

She frowns a bit, not sure that's 100 percent accurate. Although her search did translate as Apparatus covered in strawberry confectionary

Stupid translator....

Good. Not knowing Azlanti is making me feel restless.

She pokes into the local infosphere to find out whether or not Strawberry Machine Cake has been dubbed into Azlant[/b]

::And presumably our contact is on the list:: Katrina 'paths back.

Katrina scans the titles and runs them through the translator. She too grins. Who would have thought that Strawberry Machine Cake has made it this far out

Katrina goes to examine the bookshelves and any desks, looking for clues.
perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (17) + 21 = 38

Besides, she's curious about what sort of stuff Azlanti read.

I ... don't think it's a good idea to put a living creature in a null space chamber - but you're welcome to prove me wrong

She quickly peeks into the other room to see if there are other threats.

Katrina doesn't know Azlanti.

I'm not sure what you just did .. but it seems helpful. Katrina says. You can explain it to me later though. Was that Aklo you were speaking?

No no no Neroo - that's not going to compile - lemme do it
computers: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (19) + 22 = 41

Same - Seven Stars

I got no objections Katrina says as she downloads the entire contents of the memory core. There might be passcodes in there too.

The last robot gets shot at.
Take 10 for 37 trick

You lot need reprogramming - you didn't even say what you wanted for us to comply with you mechanical morons

She also goes for Orange.

Katrina goes for Blue with an UW Pilot Handcoil while diving for cover.

So ... you haven't seen him about in a while?

diplomacy: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (13) + 20 = 33

Since Neroo seems to have this well in hand, Katrina keeps quiet for now.

Katrina also keeps an eye out.
perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (9) + 21 = 30

She also has Darkvison and BlindSense.

Once leaving the bar ....

Oh well done Neroo.

Katrina gravitates to the bar once Neroo breaks the ice with the bartender. She listens while looking at the bottles etc, behind the bar.

Make it so Katrina replies.

Katrina taps into the local infosphere as they walk, curious about what the Azlanti Empire offers for nightlife and entertainment. She is fairly sure she isn't going to experience any of it but who knows what ideas she can bring back to to the Pact Worlds.

She would suggest going to the extraction point.

You certainly did Katrina smiles back to those guards.

During the trip she took turns with Maverick doing the piloting. Presumably there wasn't much opportunity for swimming on board so she'd practice her gymnastics - both with gravity and without.

Upon arrival, she stays quiet in the bridge monitoring sensors.

Katrina produces hers. Who's got the ship papers?

She pats herself down as if checking.

sense motive: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (20) + 20 = 40

Katrina produces her ID card.

To our ship she says smoothly.

Katrina sighs. Even though she's shorter than both Vesk and Azlanti she feels she has to do something.

Woah woah woah. what's the problem here. Can this be resolved without violence?

diplomacy: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (19) + 20 = 39

Katrina watches Maverick at work while she scans the space ahead of their ship with passive sensors.

piloting: 1d20 + 28 ⇒ (18) + 28 = 46

Katrina identifies the ships. And it looks like they're in a stand-off. Don't think they've seen us yet

I'm not sure taking a Drake class anywhere near Azlanti Space is a good idea, a Pegasus can be more easily passed off as a science vessel, and they maneuver a lot better - that's my opinion of course

She looks towards Maverick

Feel free to prove me wrong though. I won't mind. Much.

And I guess there'll be no v-blogging on this mission.

culture: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (18) + 16 = 34 - the quiet room
culture: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (11) + 16 = 27 - Atuity
mysticism: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (8) + 18 = 26

Katrina has no problem dispensing with her comm unit and anything else required.

So ... how are we getting to Atuity in the first place and what sort of Azlanti starship will we be flying

Katrina has to grin seeing the stellifera.

Welcome aboard Deep Blue. I'm Katrina, this is Maverick and Neroo. And you're not late so no need to apologise. Kadrical. Haven't heard that name in a while

Rock blunts scissors. You win

*PING* That was when Katrina's comm unit went off with an incoming text.

It's Selene. Excuse me a minute

She steps away for a bit.

*Ticticticticticticityticy*

*PING*

Kat's comm unit was one of the early basic ones she picked up at Dot's curio shop in the Freemarkets. It did only calls and texts, but that was all she wanted. Unfortunately it had annoying sounds which couldn't be changed.

*PING*

*ticticticticticticticticticticticlitytictic*

*PING*

*tictictictictictictictictictic .... tic tictictic*

*PING*

A few exchanges of texts later .....

No, apparently he's not her boyfriend, they're just good friends, and her patient but she sent me a few pictures he took of her underwater in the hotel pool and she wants me to join her in an underwater photoshoot that he's shooting. I said yes. I could do with up to date pics for my socials. She also suggested I resume my studies of marine biology and conservation if I do retire after this. Might ask Sunny to shoot the 'behind the scenes' video of the photoshoot for the vlog.

I got this book Katrina said, producing a book titled The Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Azlanti Empire But I suppose I should get a tetrad translator - I don't know Azlant.

But I guess I'll do that after the mission briefing

She looks over to Maverick and grins.

Rock, Scissors Paper for the pilot seat? Unless they assign us a Drake - then you can have it.

*ponders* Oh, at least I think he's her boyfriend, I know they went to a conference together on Castroval and shared a room, but that might have been because accommodation was tight. Apart from that ... I dunno. He was one of her patients so maybe they're keeping it professional.

But yeah. It was during the month of Kuthona. For the First Choices holiday, she sent me a plushie mermaid as an apology gift for being a total douchbag as she put it when we parted - we .... had a bit of a shouting match. And then when I saw her in that rather tightfitting outfit during the Newspark Parade, I realised how stupid I had been for letting her go for so long so I invited her to our family Reunion gathering. Well one thing led to another and ... yeah ... we're back together. I've been trying to talk her into getting gill implants like mine

Katrina nods The Forum was a bit abuzz about that, that's why I'm here. Besides, this could be my last hurrah before retiring - and I wanna delay that as long as possible.

She looks into Neroo's eyes. Wanna talk about it? Or to my sister? - she works as a Dream Interpreter.

She pauses for a bit. Or to my sister's current boyfriend's psychologist?

Better since then to be honest. I made up with an old classmate and we're now back together and I've taken up vid blogging as well. She hugs back. I should get one of those camera drones - waterproof of course .... oh I also bought some watercraft. Had a wonderful time on Vesk-2 with Big Jim, Sunny and Selene.

Sure. I'm willing to give it a go. I've been flying starships for at least the last seven years. I've got thousands of hours under my belt - mostly in the Pegasus class. I was in both Jinsul campaigns

Besides, we can keep RPing while we wait.

I'm okay with that.

Hey .. yeah ... likewise. And I've been meaning to sign up for one of your courses too

Katrina is wearing formfitting green armour - Plexigrass Body Suit !!!.

Best armour I could get. Like it?

She pirouettes so Maverick can see it from all amgles.

Katrina frowns at her comm unit then goes back to watching an episode of Jim's Jams
