Inactive Inquisition Quest: Mysteries of Brocante

[Baltika9]

Your slang was fairly alright there, pardner.
A, for now. I don't see a reason to start blasting yet. Just some hustlers trying to make a living.

 

[Azira]

We got nothing out of them, except we consorted with criminals and looters, who might be carrying a taint to other places now. Should've just shot them at the first junction.

 

[True Ukrainian]

Have the looters taken into quarantine.

Do I count that as a vote for shooting them, then?

 

[baud]

Well it's not your job, not why you're here, it's going to be complicated but you can try.

 

[Azira]

On the fence. It sounds smart to take them into quarantine, but we only got three people here, right? The looters outman us?

I mena, having some live guinea pigs sounds good, but if we're outmanned, we're better off gunning them down by surprise.

 

[Azira]

I say we gun them down. If any survive, we can take them into quarantine.

 

[Gondolin]

Have the looters taken into quarantine.

Nope, this is too much of a hassle. The WH40K thing to do is shot them and move on.

But I could be persuaded to let them go.

There's 6 scavengers vs 3 agents. As far your character know, you outgun them since all three agents have ranged weapons, whereas the looters carry only melee weapons and don't seem to have any military training. Though you suspect there's a gun in the truck.

 

[Azira]

 

[True Ukrainian]

We can always harvest samples from their corpses if its too much trouble to quarantine them.

 

[baud]

there are dispensaries and hospitals full of infected people (though you might not be able to use them as guinea pigs) and many dead bodies already. And you know the doctors at the hospital in Hubei have studied and experimented on infected, though you'll have to visit them to get their results.

Also no one in your trio has the skills to study the infected, either dead or alive, though you can get some samples and ask a doctor to give it a look.

 

[baud]

So the current votes are

Let them go
Baltika9

Kill them all
Gondolin

Shoot them, keep the survivors to send to quarantine
Azira
daveyarsegallant

So we'd go with the third option here.

I just prefer to check to avoid potential butthurt.

 

[Endemic]

I forgot to vote. I'll agree with "Let them go".

 

[Azira]

Ooo! A tie!

 

[Gondolin]

I'll switch to "let them go". Fuck quarantine.

 

[Azira]

Boo.

 

[baud]

okay, thanks for the votes. I'll start working on this (and drop what I had prepared for the fight).

 

[True Ukrainian]

I sense a distinct lack of hard men making hard choices while being hard.

 

[Baltika9]

We were explicitly told to keep a low profile.

Thanks." Grabbing the papers, you ask "Any other information?"

"The convoy leaves at 11:00 at South Gate Station. You can choose two acolyte from those present here, except Herbert and Frank who have to follow up a lead in Oldtown. And Delos isn't well enough to move yet. Just don't forget that it's not a raid, it's an investigation. If all goes well and it's a false alert, you won't even have to use your precious gun."

"Hey, who do you think I am? It's not because I'm a crack shot with a gun that I can't do an investigation."

"Hear, hear, the new kid's putting on his big boy pants." interjects with a mocking tone Bruno, who had been following your discussion.

"We'll see. While you're there, see if you can recruit a long-term informant, at least to keep an eye on the situation?" continues Vince.

"What for? They're backcountry yokels of a backwater planet, they're not going to have anything informative to say." you answer with a scoff, needled by the mockeries of your senior colleagues.

"Whatever. Just don't forget you're carrying no Inquisitorial authority and that our presence on this planet isn't known to the public, so tread carefully. Contact us once you have something to report on."

 

[Azira]

Meh. Teachers pet, reading the text.

 

[True Ukrainian]

We got to play to our strengths. We can keep a low profile if there are no witness.

 

[Kalarion]

Give them the choice. Work for us as informants and general errand boys for the duration of our stay, while earning the goodwill of the Inquisit Investigation. Or die in ignominy, their corpses added to the pile in the center of town.

For means of control, well... we have a tech-adept. I'm sure he can rig something up for us

I'm okay with turning them into informants.

 

[CappenVarra]

wait, what?

since we started off easy (unbecoming the inquisition, but what can you do), let them go and move on - you're all a bunch of flip-flopping surfer dudes, doesn't mean our guy has to be

next time: shoot first (cripple, don't kill), then ask questions, then kill them all

corona wants you, don't disappoint her ffs
