Turning Circles

So, how did it go against the servitor? Well, let's wait with that. Let us first take a look into the Adjutant's room with the tech-priest and assassin. Since the person behind the tech-priest arrived later his character just went up and left. The assassin decided to leave, sadly for him he was stopped in the chapel by some priest or novice who asked if the adjutant would see him. Trying to shift focus away from him he tried to "fake" that he just stumbled upon the dead body and needed help. Most of it is actually true. Sadly for him the novice didn't see it that way and tried to call for help. Old knife comes forth and he tries to silence this witness. The die isn't that nice so he fails... several times. In the end when he hears sound of people approaching he bolts for it and run away. After putting some distance between him and the angry mob he slows his speed. Not noticing the creatures in the shadows he is surprised attacked and garroted until he passes out.

The ribbins finding the dead man and message implicating them tried to shift blame here as well, but couldn't find any cleaning tools. The psychic then spotted a fuel pipe above them and found the most logical step to shoot a hole in it, drenching himself in fuel. Knowing that he could be in real danger he headed of for the showers and a change of clothes while the cleric put her outside of harms way and threw a candle igniting the fuel while she ran away. The consequence of this was that the whole damn thing exploded shaking the whole ship, destroying that floor and the fire spreading. The cleric tried to save all the people she could find, leading them toward safety. She was thanked with lots of donations... that she refused to take. The psychic on the other hand dropped his clothes and took a shower. After a while he heard some people coming into the room, talking to each others. Suddenly he heard a bang as they kicked up the door to the stall on one end. Then the next, and the next. Waiting as they got closer he went under the wall to the one they just checked and therefore escaped them. He heard them talking about somehow lost track of him and that their boss would be very unhappy. After they left he quickly dressed in some new clothes and looted his old ones. In one pocket he found a piece of leather, of course it was one of the spider-things. He whacked it to death with his staff. He later joined up with the cleric and both headed back to our sleeping quarters.

The scum on the other hand headed for the armory and become acquainted with the black market. So he geared up and left. Walking away he met the tech-priest who had been assigned a mission to kill of the keeper the ribbins spoke with, Cathol. They headed back to the armory and got him some ammo and then went to our sleeping quarters. There they knocked on the door for our secret code and entered the door. They found three people in there, armed with guns and clubs. Backing out they saw four other people in the corridor pointing at them and shouting. Battle time. They took cover in another corridor and started firing their weapons at the attackers. The ribbins that were headed this way heard the commotion and rushed to their aid. The cleric firing her gun and the psychic finding a flamethrower that he used, burning a man that began running into our room. The scum not wanting to be left our used the bomb he picked up from the mad priest on the planet Festus. Three more people burned to death. The rest was killed by the bullets. Without due an alarm was sounded (probably the fire alarm) and they quickly ran for it (of course after the scum had the opportunity to loot the dead bodies for weapons to sell and ammo to use). Running down the corridor they came upon a patrol of guards who started chasing them (since they pretty much ran from the cause of the alarm I would presume... and that they are disliked by almost everyone anyway). During the chase the psychic suddenly feel the presence of the other psychic onboard and that he is near. Finding a corridor leading him closer he take charge and the rest follows into a dark room which they barricade and illuminate. Too late they see the psychic who dominate the scum and start attack our own psychic, locking them in melee combat. Two mutated henchmen attacks as well. Since karma seem to be quick on the ship, the psychic is a pyromancer and sets the cleric and scum on fire as well. A though battle later they finally are subdued... or rather executed when they got the upper hand and they could finally take a breather. Of course one question still remain unanswered, what was I doing?

Well, standing in front of the locked gate that also was chained up and a deadly terminator at my back I found a book register on all the people and pulled out the pages, put them in my robes and pulled out my gun to shoot away the lock... I succeed jamming the lock with two bullets. I can feel the noose of death tightening around my neck. Taking a quick look at the pages I stole I see that the murder victim (aka the one we aren't responsible for) visited a specific shelf so, since I can't get out I bolt into the shelfs to keep the servitor away from me and finding some answers. Running up and down and cycling around the servitor I rush past the specific shelfs, grab scrolls and books, take a glance and rush unto the next shelf for even more information. After some time I shaken away the servitor for a while I can sit and examine the evidence for the moment. All in all it seems that the Arch-Adjutant (who was killed before we came to the ship) examined the mutant siting on the lower decks and that the confessor tried to stop him. The adjutant (whom the tach-priest killed) seemed to be one of two spies sent to this ship in order to destroy all "aliens" (aka all who don't belong on the ship). Suddenly the sound of pistons pumping and metal scraping on the floor was heard just at the corner of the shelf so I got up and ran away. After some running I could still here the servitor in the background and decided to take a peak past the shelf closest to me. Doing so I felt a club on my shoulder and then someone shocked me with an electrocuting weapon. Falling onto the floor I could feel them tying my arms and legs and in the distance the servitor could be heard coming closer until it picked me up and carried me away.

The assassin finally woke up, hanging upside down in some dungeon-like prison. Tied with ropes and chains he looked around and saw me, face to the wall, lying on the floor. After telling him about the information I got, the jailer warned us and then continued. Whispering this time we tried to asses our situation, but I guess the jailer felt it necessary to keep us in line so small mutants with electrocuting poles arrived zapping the assassin. They left me alone since I pretty much shock in fear already. They seemed to sadistically enjoy it. It didn't stop us though. I tried to break my ropes, but strength isn't my best attribute and since the lucky rolls during the information search I was back to my usual self... with fail after fail. Nothing accomplished both of us saw some thin, tall mutant looking at us with mouth open and slow eyes. Making just some inhuman-like sound the thing left. Shortly afterwards we picked up the sound of small insect feet. Shaking in fear I could in the corner of my eye see spider-like creatures crawling down the chains that hold the assassin until they covered his face. He tried to blew them away, but that only aggravated them so they began eating and clawing at him while he screamed and tossing and turning himself. I screamed for help, but nothing happened until the thing from before returned and took the "spiders" away from him and then it left again. After an hour or so the jailer had return with a bunch of small mutants with electrifying poles. Still, it felt more tolerable than what the other group had done.
