"This isn't the lawless frontier," the bartender says. "The unwelcome are simply deported to nearby worlds. They are welcome back if they can fix whatever it is that got them deported, though some aren't welcome back. Criminals, mostly."

"It sounds like quite the system." He commented.

What does Denzral know of the Tull guy, rolls intelligence.

Nothing. You have never heard of him.

"It works."

"Okay, thanks for the information, anywhere around here I can broker a room for a few nights?" I pay for the drinks and finish the one I ordered. "C'mon, Soapy guess we'll check out the white tower, mayeb we'll run into this Tull guy... actually first I have an idea..." Denzral turned back to the bartender. "Is there a place that keeps records of ships leaving a arriving the system that civilians can access, or at least buy information for (didn't catch his name)?"

(I'm off to catch up on several dozen half hours' sleep)

"Sure, check the starport, for both of those. There's a hostel down the street from it."

Not sure who you mean concerning buying information.

Don't wrooy. I'' say good buy, thank him for the drinks, and head to the spaceport to a place where I can get information on ships that have been in and out of the system. I bet you know what I want here, I want to find that ship the Raiders used on Darrta.

You head to the starport to look over starship registry. You are presented with a list of starships that have been in and out of Halloy in the past month, with name and description.

Sadly, you don't find what you are looking for. It is not listed.

How long did it take me to get to Halloy?

Two weeks.

How long ago were the raiders defeated at Darrta?

Just a little over two weeks.

Okay that eliminates that possibility. Obviously these trips if they did indeed come from here, have been unlogged. Are there any attendants or deck officers I can ask, maybe they'll be able to give me a lead on who owns the ship. I'll get Soapy to show them a holoprojection of it.

Certainly. Tell me what skill you want to use for getting people to share with you what they know.

Persuade? Hmm... Or Charisma? Maybe a few credits?

Bribery can help, but it will be down to a Persuade + Charisma check. Do you want to use a bribe?

Not at first... we'll see how the rolls go.

Persuade 3
Charisma 4

Three successes on a pool of seven.

After asking around the starport for awhile, you are beginning to get disheartened when you find a maintenance man who recognizes the ship.

"It's been here before," he says. "A few times, I'd warrant."

"Do you know who owns it?"

"I don't," he says, "but I can tell you were I saw it last."

"I'm listening."
