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.

Infiltrated trio of Pidge, Kit (Dakki) and Neil (Matt) will be exploring E-1! Pidge and Kit are synthetics while Neil is a Gorgon. Kit, however, has been modified to be an outdoors lumberjack bot.

A lot of the trees are similar to the ones nearby Big Base N, although many of them are noticeably younger. There's one or two older ones that are noticeably dead. If Kit/Dakki fells one of them, she'll see evidence in the tree rings that there was a wildfire a couple centuries ago.

There is a large number of insects-like animals that have yet to be categorized. Many of them are radially symetrical, but some exibit bilateral symmetry. Those that do generally have upwards of five sets of limbs.

There are also a variety of wood-dwelling mammal-like animals, many of which haven't been catalogued yet. They exhibit bilateral symmetry and for the most part have three sets of legs. Not only are there the bat-squirrel type animals that Naoki, Eren, and Seifer will encounter, but there's also tree-dwelling ones that have arms about as long and dexterous as a sloth, but have faces that look a lot more like weasels do, only with prehensile trunks like elephants. They seem to enjoy eating the fungi that grows on the sides of the trees.

One of them might try to steal Neil/Matt's possessions while he's sleeping and the other two are welcome to catch it in the act. It has absolutely no clue what to do with any of it, but will try to swallow anything that will fit in its mouth.
