Game Housekeeping
Remember to post to Activity Check by midnight on September 30th in order to remain in the game!
Make sure to check out the comments on this post and check in with your crew role so that I have a rough headcount of who is currently doing what.
Terms and Conditions: October
Outbound Flight is taking off into deep space again on the 27th of September. Individuals from a galaxy far, far away might notice that the hyperdrive is notably slower in The Eye. Apparently whatever happened to stall the drive added some permanent changes.. that or physics is strange here.
Thanks to the crew's efforts on Orntell 6, Outbound Flight will be well-provisioned in fresh foods and medicines through at least the end of November. There are also enough spare parts aboard that an additional two shuttles can be brought back to working order if there is a willing mechanic. The ship's armory also now has access to several pounds of plastic explosive if you can get Axl to part with it.
Onboard conditions remain a little chilly-- average temperatures are holding steady in the 60s. The hydroponic gardens in D6 are a bit warmer, hovering in the mid 70s.
October Events
As always, you can check the Calendar for a handy month-to-month view of game events.
Starting at midnight on October 12th, strange shades will start appearing and wandering the ship. They are sorta crew-like, and appear to be engaged in activities germane to prepping and launching a ship like Outbound Flight. They are not true ghosts and are not perturbed by the presence of actual live crew or indignities like being walked through. A particularly keen observer might even spot Crazy Intercom Jorus, Lorana, or a mysterious black-cloaked figure striding through the halls in shade form.
Things won't stay calm forever-- on the 28th violence will erupt between the crew shades, and shortly after visions of the PC crew will appear. That will be the kickoff for the October event, nights of ghosts and shadows that will carry us through the beginning of November.Kill your double.
There are currently no player plots scheduled for October.
