FIREFLY RPG - Episode 0 - Prologue

Started by Craft38 pages

Only because it doubles as a useful tool for his mechanic duties.

So Christopher and I can choose what we brought with us up to an encumbrance of 8 or another limit?

Raven will have a heavy revolver with 4 tiny clips and dual sais.
encumbrance= 8

Don't need guns now, Vera, but it's convenient for our dear loopy GM to have notes.

Ah, well, even though we might be good with a specific TYPE of gun, can we still have personalized weapons? 😄

Vash will be carrying a Machine Pistol, 4 Tiny Clips, and a sword for a total encumberence of 7.

I have a custom Large Revolver with an increase in accuracy. And a Custom short curved Katana used for stabbing with a damage increase.

Rob, if you like, I can treat whatever you pick as if you spent a Money point on it. Just remember that whatever you pick for Gunslinger is permanent after the Prologue.

Bardock (and Rob) - you don't have to follow the Encumbrance limit that the Captain set for the mission, no.

Yes, Vera, there are limits, and they will be detailed out soon enough. If you want to buy a better rifle for future use, feel free.

Also, when you buy an upgraded gun, you also get 5 clips with it (more if you spend more money).

Alright then! Awesome. Christopher's custom weapon as follows:

Name: Cosmo Dragoon
Weapon Class: Heavy Revolver
Damage: 3 (2+1 from the customization)
Size: Medium
Ammo: 4
Accuracy: 1

Christopher also has on him a combat-utility knife. When will the passangers have to turn in their weapons to the captain, exactly?

Already have: Harmony took them and locked them away on page 5.

Oh well how silly of me to not notice. I'll just add in a quick confirmation of my character's behalf then.

Christopher winced a little when Harmony took away his weapon, despite his knowing she was extra careful with it.

"Do be careful with my pistol, ma'am... it's of very limited production, and very important to me..."

Okay, it looks like everyone has their things...

A = Armory-borrowed
M = Money-bought
P = Privately-owned

Marina- 4
1 Light Revolver (1) A
6 Tiny clips (3) A

Raven- 8
1 Heavy Revolver (2) A
4 Tiny clips (2) A
2 Sais (4) P

Shaftoe- 0
1 Shaftoe’s Heavy Revolver (2) M
4 Tiny clips (2) M
1 Sword (4) M

Vash- 8
1 Machine Pistol (2) A
4 Tiny clips (2) A
1 Sword (4) P

Toki - 5
1 Light Revolver (1) A
1 Nunchaku (1) P
4 Tiny clips (2) A

Alan- 7
1 Machine Pistol (2) A
2 Tiny clips (1) A
1 Trusty Old Pipe Wrench (4) P

Nadra- 3
1 Knife (1) P
1 Light Revolver (1) A
2 Tiny clips (1) A

I will give it a day if anyone wants to spend more money on their guns.

Also, Raven and Toki... neither of you have Combat schticks that cover sais or nunchaku respectively. Did you want to change this? You can still have them and use them, but you're not as deadly as you could be.

Vash, if you want to specify what kind of sword, just for fun. Rapier? Katana? Broadsword?

And if Shaftoe wants to come up with a nifty name for his custom revolver, feel free. Otherwise, it'll be Shaftoe's Heavy Revolver (catchy, right?)

Nothing will ever be as catchy as the "Trusty Old Pipe Wrench". 😛

It would be cool if Vash had a six foot long spear, but I'm guessing it would take up a lot more encumberance?

Well a spear is 8 encumbrance, I think.

Yeah I love all of my combat schticks already but an armed one would be nice. I'll decide if I want to substitute for an armed one by tonight.

A little late, here's the weapons Gabriel carried with him, and for now has given into the care of Harmony:

Heavy Revolver
Damage 2, Medium, Ammo 4 (tiny clips), Accuracy 1
A standard heavy revolver, that could be easily replaced with another one.
Customized Shotgun (Damage +1)
Damage 4*, Large, Ammo 8 (medium clips), Pointblank
A shotgun Gabriel had for a few years, it has been upgraded to pack more of a punch and is rather dear to him.
Jian (Chinese Sword)
Damage 4, Large
The sword is an old weapon his friend Liu Hao gave him shortly before he died. It is one of his most treasured possessions.

Harmony returns from the armory, much lighter than when she left. She hands the Captain the key to the gun cabinet, and says "All locked up and labeled, nice and secure, sir." She smiles- that same, empty-headed smile.

Spears are not subtle in the least, Vash. They are counted as being Very Large- an Encumbrance of 8. You would not be able to take anything else with you.

"Thank you, Harmony," Kelly says, giving Harmony a weird look when she flashes the empty-headed smile. "Don't mind her, she's been flying awhile. Any questions you'd like to ask? I can show you into the ship, if you like."

Phillip seems eager to go in.

"That would be nice." Gabriel replies to Kelly with a smile. He's interested in inspecting this new ship as he hasn't seen a similar one before.
