Natural Resources Hex Sign-Ups

[powersthatbe]

As your characters team up to survey the wilderness of the smuggler's moon, please comment under the week's toplevels below to indicate which hexes you're exploring and who'll you'll be exploring them with. In the body of your comment, please list any relevant skills or abilities that will help you search faster, more accurately, or more thoroughly, such as Control Panel, Questing Sense, Survivalism, etc.



As a note: thanks to the expedition's hover vehicles, you can pick any hex on the map as your starting hex and any subsequent hexes chosen can be anywhere on the map--not necessarily contiguous to your first hex.

Allura and Cassandra will be exploring hex A-2.

Allura's Infiltrating as one of the Conditioned; Somatic and Sensory Conditioning might be useful for aquatic exploration and/or detecting any lurking water monsters or other oddities.

Cassandra also has Sensory and Somatic Conditioning, as well as Unstoppable Force, Flash Precognition (in case of ambush) and Wilderness Survival training (and a Mermaid totem transformation and the ability to shift that at will, but that might be trickier to explain to Allura). She has Interface, but she might not get as much out of it as another Traveler would.

OH HEY, SPEAKING OF WATER MONSTERS THIS LAKE HAS THEM. YOU'RE WELCOME.

Specifically, among the various fish-like animals and arthropod-like animals that they'll be able to find in the lake--and there's probably close to a dozen species of "fish" in that lake that haven't been catalogued yet, plus some amphibians, all of which have bilateral symetry and three sets of limbs--there's also...

Well, it's an ugly, giant, carnivorous, green water monster with face only a mother could love. It's got a body that's as much eel-like as fish-like and it's about the size of a truck. There's actually a small population of them in the lake that Cassandra and Allura are investigating. You guys can choose to have a fight with one. With conditioned-level and Clayborne-level fighting, they should be able to take it down and bring it back to the base.

Sadly, it is not tasty at all to humans.
