Circle of Dar Janix

  While the focus of the sessions has moved to the events that took place on Mars in 2040, the fallout from the assassination continues to play out between session on our discord and through email. Since several of the characters started interstellar journeys right after the assassination, that portion of the campaign also introduces the challenge of communications delay. This means that not all the players find out about events at the same time. In fact, the further apart the characters get, the longer it will take them to find out what is happening to the other characters. This is one of the cooler aspects of the Traveller universe, and it works well with asynchronous play like this.   Below, I discuss events that have transpired that all the characters have had an opportunity to learn about.   132-1116   This was the day of the assassination. Immediately following the assassination, Tranian and Adair returned to their apartments on Capital. They form

It was starting to get dark by the time they reached the surface, so they camped for the night by the road. They set watches, with Duycken and Creng taking the last watch.   In the middle of the third watch, Duycken and Creng felt a sudden wave of terror wash over them. Duycken was able to resist it, but Creng took off into the woods. The duck knight recognized it from the other encounters with dragon fly overs and immediately looked to the sky.   What appeared to be a streak of blue fire flew by, heading to the northwest. It was pursued by the shadowy form of the four-winged dragon they had spotted in the past. The dragon breathed a cone of fire at the blue streak

During Romilius’s watch a flyer landed about one hundred yards away and three people in non-official suits got out and approached the rover. Romilius woke the others as the lead figure plugged a jack into 10WPink’s external port to establish a communication link.   She introduced herself as Cynthia Meyers from Cydonian security. She was accompanied by Dag Coleman and Tucker

They hoped to investigate Sir Mar’s report of Armentgart, the Black Knight from the tournament , participating in demon summoning beneath one of the mounds. The trip south to the barrow mounds took most of the day, but it was easy to follow the road and it was uneventful.     While Sir Mar indicated that Sabine’s Lot had entered the complex under the mounds through the barrow in the northeast corner, the party decided to enter through the opening in the northwest.       Uggmar snuck into the opening and down a ramp. He found himself in a rough room with a coffin that had clearly already been looted. Previous explorers had broken through a wall to the east. He noticed that the wall was thin, and the opening led to a

Mars May 3 rd , 2040       This was the first session that took place fully on Mars. We started off by learning some more about the PCs (including names for some!) and making a PC for our new player.
