Session 27 - The Station and the Sheriff

• The group's approach to Harmonia Station was imminent...
• Vela requested that she viewed the memories of the party in an effort to understand as many experiences as she could to gather information about the Known Worlds and the Frontiers.
• Most of the group agreed - though some had caveats and stipulations for it.
• Vela made plans later to perform her memory readings; she offered to share some of her own memories in exchange. 
• AUW had been contacted by Horst Tappelkhirre - the information which he shared with the group.
• AUW and the party's presence were requested at a meeting tomorrow regarding a potential joint operation and expedition. 
• Horst expressed his gratitude at being rescued from the assassination attempt by Groid's Raiders.
• Crow requested that the first stop the crew make was to the Sheriff on Harmonia Station.
• The party agreed for several reasons...
• They had important information to share they gathered from Groid's Raiders -- Allei wanted to bring this to JumpCorp's internal affairs (Maruul Soteeg).
• They hoped to recruit CLINT, the deputy. 
• Crow wanted to be transparent about his RANGER membership out of concern for the station.
• Allei, while showering and cleaning up, let out a shriek from her bedroom. The group requested if she needed help, but she declined. 
• When she came from her room, it was revealed that she had adopted a femme fatale type persona - she was certainly beautiful and charismatic enough to play the part. 

• Crow and AUW proceeded to the Sheriff's Office ahead of the rest of the Crew.
•  Lynx, Crow's RANGER MENTOR, had been stalking Harmonia Station ever since Crow sent her word that he was done hiding.
• The two had an argument upon the future of the RANGERS. Crow hoped that he touched and convinced Lynx in someway, that the RANGERS needed to act openly and regroup in order to be a symbol of hope to the people. Lynx was worried that it would only get people killed, and themselves destroyed.
• The two did not come to an agreement, but Lynx said she would arrange for Crow to speak with their elders/bosses regarding his ideas.

• The group arrived at the sheriff's office...
• There, they found CLINT who was watching a Space Western movie and miming the actions on the screen. The sheriff agreed to turn him over to the group, but they had to leave his frame behind. As a result, the group opted to load his A.I. onto Nikki's Drone, Kuma, for the time being. The group officially had a new crew member!
• The group saw an experienced looking Yeti Mercenary in the waiting room, but no one was able to identify him - despite his vast reputation in this subsector. He seem interested in Allei, but if that was just due to her increased sex appeal or something else, was undetermined.
• The deader Marshal of Goldpoint Station, Yubukdor Hanz, was seen leaving Marshal Kaine's office. He stopped for a moment to talk to the group; drawn in by Allei's charm. 
• Crow showed off his Ranger's Badge to the Sheriff.
• Kaine ultimately would believe Crow, but was more scared than anything about it. The RANGERS had enough rumors about the death and destruction that followed them and she feared for her people. 
• Kaine took a moment to explain Asimov Circuits and their requirements in the Known Worlds to Tamit who began inquiring about the legalities of it.
• Allei revealed that the subsector would see good news -- she had jumpcorp secrets that were good, but did not share them with the sheriff. 
• Allei also implied that the group would not be staying at Harmonia long -- wanting to lay low. Kaine offered the bounty on Brevin's Gang  as a way for the group to kill two birds with one stone.

• The group makes plan to visit Wacha, who is in the "lion's den" of the Apple (the owner being the JumpCorp "leak" to Groid's Raider) and to see Maruul Soteeg as well -- to say nothing of their appointment with Horst Tappelkhirre. It'll be a day or two of meetings sprinkled in with downtime and personal endeavors...
