E-309: Zarg’s World Downport, Circus Galacta
Oliver
No worries… I’ve actually been a bit prevented so now I can blame my slow GM response on you! 😉
I think that’s an entirely valid explanation for the outcome and is consistent with his character and Disadvantages, so we’ll go with that.
Lia
When Lia chooses ‘Prosperity & Protection’ – a puzzle game that rewards her high manual dexterity – she does well [as she rolled three successes, which is how I’ve been scoring the sideshows], earning the right to one of the premium prizes. She may choose from:
- One of a range of large plushies of large Companion (eg Pig, Cat), Mythical (eg Cow, Dog) and Xenoform (eg Pristine AlpCow, Arachnean Spidon, Felline Nggrrang) animals
- A model of a Legion Hand-class destroyer (with lighting effects for the Thrusters, FTL plates, movable weapon emplacements and hangar doors that open and close)
- A bust of the Overlord that displays inspirational thoughts and quotes
- A Circus Galacta scarf and hat
The Zero-G Maze
Gregar and Prrri don’t need a lot of encouragement, although Prrri is impossible to keep up with.
The maze is an intentionally forgiving Zero-G environment, so though neither Oliver nor Lia have the Free Fall skill, it’s easy to get around and difficult to hurt yourself even if you make a mistake.
Lia knows from previous exploits (and can tell by watching him now) that Gregar does know how to handle himself in Free Fall skill, and he’s willing to assist or advise her if she wishes.
Is there anything else specific Lia or Oliver would like to do or say in the Sideshow Dome?
She is torn between the Xenoform large plushies and the destroyer.
What does the Felline Nggrrang look like and does Lia know anything about them?
Her eye keeps wandering to the Spidon. What colour is it?
She enjoys bouncing around in the maze and will hold onto Gregar when she gets stuck. There is much giggling.
Lia is interested in how both Oliver and Kort behave in this casual setting…
