hexarchate_rpgSasha's first team meeting will cover the following points:
Move 2.2 will be posted sometime next week, so now is a good time to wrap up things you wanted to do before we go through a rift into a new century. Move 2.1 is ongoing. However, if there's miscellaneous prep stuff you want to accomplish before heading to 852 (supplies to purchase, training to access, data to hunt for in the grid), please post it here.
- Sasha is now in charge; Ashari is on another mission.
- Sulen is second-in-command. Talk to them if you have interpersonal problems or questions about the heptarchate.
- Sulen has posted brief profiles of the team members, including the dates they are from, to the internal grid.
- The ship is going to spend a couple of days reconfiguring and taking on supplies, then head through the rift to 852.
- Our first goal on arrival is to collect as much information as possible about rebellion activities.
- We will arrive approximately two weeks before the battle of Candle Arc.
- We will pose as arms traders reporting to the woman codenamed Flute.
- We are selling designs for personal armor with embedded weapons.
- Reshad will pose as our salesperson.

She'd very much like to talk to Fyedlet, as she has an idea, and it may be terrible.

Date: 2018-12-24 07:22 pm (UTC)Reshad isn't interested in getting people to do what they're not going to want or succeed at; as soon as Seyli shows that inattentiveness, she switches tack.
How would Seyli /prefer/ to disguise themself? After all, the idea of a false name and identity is to protect oneself in situations where the real ones are known.
This may not be that; the value of disguising it is minimal if that's true. She instead focuses on finding out Seyli's skills. Weapons skills may well be needed, and she'd like to learn more of them herself. Perhaps Seyli can demonstrate.

Date: 2018-12-26 05:18 pm (UTC)We've been varying our names to cut down on the risk of someone realizing we're rebellion agents through historical analysis, but for the sake of player memories I think we shouldn't be perfectionistic. In particular, theming all the ship names around bees and wasps would be a bad idea if we were really serious about this.]

Date: 2018-12-29 06:21 pm (UTC)Reshad has moderate marksmanship skills, the sort of thing you'd expect from someone who keeps up on training but doesn't live by her gun. Her hand to hand skills are poor, and while she won't hesitate to fight dirty or grab whatever she thinks might be useful to whack an opponent with, it's clear this isn't how she should plan on getting out of a pinch.
