Into the Aberdeen---Bismarck Wilds

I run back and loot the last guard's body, and then run back up to the tracks

Longsword, .50 Calibur Pistol, and a chain shirt...do not forget that you also already have a pistol that you managed to steal from that elf.

I help Natalya salvage gear for our expedition. I take the cloths, preferably clean ones, and try to find any alcohol containers still intact. And some food.
( Roll: 11 )

And I guess I'll put some armor on too, sinse it seems to be the hip thing to do right now.

After searching through much of the wreckage, the best you can come across is a cracked(empty) bottle of alcohol. No traces of food can be found, though.

"Shit, well I suppose we should start going. We're killing daylight people!"

(Should someone roll a survival check?)

Looks from one person to the next. "Are we ready?"

(Do I find any other liquids besides alcohol)

Which way do you travel?

"Can anyone here determine which direction the train was originally heading?" I say, gritting my teeth impatiently. I try to use my reasoning skills to determine this for myself (roll:12)

I use my honed skills from being a hunter to find North.
( Survival: 3 )

With the sun barely rising behind you, you manage to come to the conclusion that north is to the left of where the party stands...(following the tracks) (Still unable to determine which way you came from, though.)

Attempts to see which way the train was traveling by the way the explosion propelled the the train pieces... (Gather Info Roll: 15+6=21)

"Well, if someone remembers if the train was heading North or South I can point us in the right direction."

(The city that we are heading to for the crawl is Bismarck right? If so, I want to try to recall where Bismarck is (north, south, etc) roll: 3...lol)

I'll take your roll, but actually gather info is more used for like...listening and asking around a crowd or something. I'll come up with something, though. Just one moment.

There is too much damage to be able to really piece together any clues to give where you were going.

(Yeah I forgot to put it on there the first time, I got a 3)

Ok, roll a d100 for me now, please.

(I got 99)

"... None of us remembers which way the train was going, do we?" I sigh a little "Maybe we should ask Tan-toon, or whatever his name was?"

Courtney wrote:

Sorry, but you have no recollection of where Bismarck is from Aberdeen's standpoint.

"... No one seriously remembers which way the train was going?" I sigh a little "Maybe we should ask Tan-toon, or what ever his name was?"

"If I recall, he had no idea himself.." I sigh heavily. "But, it's worth a shot I guess."

I follow Kurtis with an obvious boredum in my shuffle.

After a minute of awkward silence, I break it like a polar bear on thin ice. " I'm going to ask him if that's okay with everyone else?" I don't wait for an answer.

Whilst digging at a massive hole already...He gives you a quick, solid, "Nope."

"Fuuuuuuuuck"

"Yeah, yeah," I say as I half-heartedly wave my hand the direction that the half orc is while still looking around. "I have a plan, lets follow the tracks north until we get to other signs of civilization and try to find someone who knows where they are going. We need to get moving, who knows how long we were out!"

"Or we could flip a coin. We'll either find the other town or run into the rest of the train that was detached before the bandits detonated the C4. Also that's what that explosion was, if any of you were wondering."

"Either way we'll run into something, it's just a matter of how quickly we can do it,"

I sigh again. "Well, whatever we do.. Let's just get going. At this point..just standing around is kinda... counterproductive." I say, partially aggravated.

I flip a coin and start walking North without looking at the coin.

(Thankyou)

I nod then start moving toward the point we determined to be north.

I start walking with Natalya and look over to her, "looks like someones making decisions without us."

I hesitantly decide to follow the group,

"Hey, I let the coin decide." I say sarcastically.

"You obviously didn't look at the coin, Kirtus." I roll my eyes.

(I'm gonna eat brb)

"It doesn't matter," I snap, and continue moving forward as quickly as I can without breaking into a jog

Traveling north along the tracks. regardless of your problematic situation, the savannas are actually quite beautiful. A 4 hour stroll brings you to something of interest.

Your company approaches a massive cut in the earth. The early stages of a canyon lay out before you. It stretches further than you can see, and goes at least 10 miles deep. A clear waterway follows the gap currenting to the east. The train tracks follow across a sturdy and wide bridge. A large overhang reads "Aberdeen's Spine". You can see random broken boxes and suitcases on border of the canyon.

I run over to the boxes and suitcases, then sift through them for things of value or use. Particularly food or money

(Search check)

I look down the canyon to try and find any signs of life, or perhaps a train car.
