Draw up some plans for a suit of powered armour.
Taric opened up the word processor on his PDA and manipulated the hologram, making designs for powered armor. (Int-2 difficulty: 8, fail) Having never seen any powered armor before, or metal armor at all for that matter, he doesn't have the slightest clue as to where to begin designing it and ends up indulging fantastical possibilities that could never work.
At least he had fun doing it.
She falls back onto the deck of the boat, allowing blissful sleep to take her away.
Rebecca passed out. Unfortunately, because it was due to pain and not choice, her dreams weren't nearly as interesting as Enriqe's... but they were definitely more restful.
work out to improve my strength or condition
Marion grabbed some rocks and lifted them. (Str: 5, success) After some time moving them around, he got a feel for how to hold rocks, and possibly how to throw them better... (The rocks in Marion's inventory now do +1 more damage)
Grab the nap by the horns and take it. Dream of sneaking around and avoiding !
Enriqe, figuring there was nothing to do until the pair of them got back, decided to sleep... and dream of being Grenade Anaconda! (GA - Str: 4 Agi: 6 End: 3 Int: 6 Cha: 2) (Agi: 5, success) Anaconda slipped into the shadows and let one of the many raiders go by, then stepped out silently... the raider never saw it coming as he put his silenced pistol to the back of his head and pulled the trigger! Dragging the body into the shadows, he patted it down and got a keycard out of it, then moved to nearby door and opened it with his new acquisition.
(Agi: 5, success) He pressed up against the wall and checked his gun. 12 shots left, and a pair of raiders in the room. He drew one of his empty clips and tossed it at the far wall. (Enemy Int: 9, 6, failures) They both went over to investigate, and he aimed at their radios. (Int: 4, 2, success, 10 shots left) Both shattered under his gun fire, and the raiders turned to engage, unable to call for backup! Anaconda immediately shot the first raider in the left leg to slow him long enough to aim, but just before he had fired the raiders had shot! The second missed him, but the first's bullet grazed his right leg. He took aim and shot the raider in the chest, hitting him in the heart and dropping him as the second continued to run up, firing and hitting him in the left arm!
Anaconda whipped the gun around and shot him in the hand, making him drop his weapon. In pain but undaunted like a good dream-AI, the raider drew his knife with his left hand and attacked! GA ducked the blow, shooting him in the left leg and blowing out the knee. HP depleted, the raider fell over. Anaconda watched the bodies blink a few times and vanish, unperturbed. This was a dream, after all. (6 shots left) He advanced deeper into the facility as Enriqe mumbled something in his sleep and rolled over.

Tarran gets rowing on the boat again. Faster now.
Tarran grabbed the large rib Rebecca had been using to paddle and took over the job of getting them downstream as fast as possible. He didn't want to be attacked, not while on his own and trying to protect an unconscious woman. (MAR: 9) If any more of those things were in the area, they were busy eating the dead ones they had left behind. In a matter of hours, Tarran saw the riverside docks of Rivergate ahead! They had made it in record time! Now they just had to convince someone to go back towards the forest fire and pick up the others...
"Well, might as well prepare it." May set to the task of working with the meat to make it into a viable meal.
May decided that she was going to spend her time productively and get to work curing that meat. (End: 4, success) She went back out into the fire and got a few of the branches that hadn't burned yet, along with one that had, and brought them into the cave. She arranged them into a small pile near the entrance and set the steaks to cook. (May gets: 2x Cooked Steaks!)
-------------------------
It was early the next day. Tarran and Rebecca had managed to convince a part of people to go back and pick up the others (Cha: 2, 5) and with Rebecca's charm they managed to talk them into doing it for free as a gesture of good will! Without a place to stay and no money, they had been forced to sleep at the outskirts, but the day was dawning bright and young. What would the six of them do?
