"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Mmm donuts.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Kalshane, you should join the game!

Maybe next time. I don't have a lot of free time at the moment. Too much going on between work, the holidays and house stuff at right now, unfortunately.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG

Have I played Cally before? I can't believe we've played so many games that I'm not sure. Either way I sure haven't gotten to shoot anyone in the face... yet.

I'll be Callandra “Cally” Tyrol

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

BSG

Don't shoot me in the face! It'll be really weird, since I'm Tory Foster.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

BSG

Per CO, -t chooses Anastasia "Dee" Dualla.

ND, you may choose either a military leader or the Chief (the only remaining support character).

A reminder to any players who haven't done so, to send meCOs for your starting card draw (or, for Apollo, your optional draw for turn one).

Woo, looks like I'm PRESIDENT Tory Foster! This is like the third game with President Tory!

Our wings are not tired

BSG

I'm going to play Helena Cain. This should be interesting.

Damn, I should have chosen Starbuck and we'd have an all female crew!

Hey, the Airlock is right there.

We have a crew! A ragtag bunch of misfits who are, variously: amoral, headstrong, impulsive, fragile and bent on revenge. Before we start, there are a few things left to clear up.

1. I'm still missing one player's votes on rules options, but it doesn't matter, because there's already a clear majority in every category. I am pleased to announce the following results:

  • We will play with an expanded destiny deck, as in the last couple of games.
  • We will use Exodus loyalty rules (i.e. one extra loyalty card in the deck, there is always at least one card left in the deck).
  • There are no other changes to the loyalty rules.
  • We will use Pegasus Investigative Committees, as the gods intended. This means that ICs do not reveal Destiny.

I will be sending out starting loyalty cards shortly. Before we start, I still need the following decisions:

  • I need Cally's and Cain's starting draws.

  • I also need Cain's choice of starting location. Cain, you may begin the game either in Command or Pegasus CIC.

Apollo also has a choice of start location, and he has chosen Sector 6.

Ok crew, stand by to receive your loyalties. May the gods be with you. That might stop them pestering me all the time.
