Gav talks as he casually rolls the ship onto a curving approach towards the planet, Alright! Let’s get down there. Bo, picking up any defenses?

As you approach, the planet turns peacefully below you. There is a great deal of water, and several large landmasses. Nothing appears to be in orbit.

Warden looks out at the blue planet, and takes in the scene. He always enjoys the approach to a new system, and likes to imagine the discoveries that exist on the surface.

"Well, at least it's not a barren hunk of rock," he says to all present.

Looking out at the planet Doc shrugs slightly at Wardens words "Doesn't look too advanced though, not that I was expecting anything else this far out." he turns to Bo "Any transmissions coming from planetside?"
Jun 25, 2018 11:39 pm
A passive check reveals no outgoing transmissions, which is unsurprising given the lack of anything to transmit to. That is, other than your ship.

Bo says outloud as she goes through a sequence ton the sensor panel "Converting systems. Focusing search. Scanning for ships and weapon locking hardware."

I'm going to throw a challenge die onto that; this is a hard task for your ship's sensors.

Bo manages to pick up a cluster of engine signatures on one of the larger continents. You're too far away to make out much detail, but there appears to be a small settlement there.
Jun 27, 2018 10:36 pm
Warden hangs back, seeing there isn't much he can do until they land. Still, he keeps his close ear on the conversation incase he can offer any suggestions.
Jun 29, 2018 8:25 pm
Doc studies the readout that Bo is pulling up before nodding "That looks like our best bet, let's get a bit closer and see if we can pick up any more details. If they're the people who boosted our clients ship then it may be best to keep our presence as quiet as possible for the time being"

"We can try to come in low from a distance and maybe stay off anyones radar. Land a ways out and go in on foot?"
Jul 9, 2018 11:27 pm
Warden chimes in. "That's good thinking, Boha. If they have any sensor arrays, we should miss them coming in low enough."

Gav brings the ship in a long slow loop around the planet, breaking atmosphere on the far side from your target. He coasts in low over the ocean, with a flash of sunrise you re-enter the dayside of the planet and skim over the waves. You approach the large continent from the west and fly past plains and forest, then weave through the grand peaks of a mountain range. Bo watches the comm panel intently, but there is no indication that you have been spotted. Gav sets the Chaser down on a grassy plain, about 10 kilometers from the settlement. There is a forest before you, with wind gently blowing the purple leaves of the trees.

Doc leans in and takes a look at the various sensor readings, taking articular attention to the atmospheric data.
OOC:
Basically looking to see if there's anything about the planet that could cause issues with the crews health (anything from being out of breath because the air's a bit thinner than normal up to the air being toxic to carbon based lifeforms).
Jul 14, 2018 1:10 am
Warden looks out into the grassy plain through a view port. With a slight jest in his tone, he quietly says "No one here to greet us? Well that's just rude. Still... looks pleasant enough, right?"

He gathers up his gear, and heads to the loading ramp, waiting for the ok to open the doors.
Jul 14, 2018 9:20 am
Doc reads the atmosphere as mostly nitrogen, with a liberal dose of oxygen. There are no toxic gases in any dangerous quantities, and it seems quite safe for the crew. If anything, the oxygen is a little higher than normal, which will give everyone a boost of energy.
Jul 24, 2018 12:11 am
Making sure his equipment is on securely, Warden moves to the boarding ramp and prepares to set out into the forest. He was never one to enjoy much time in wilderness settings, finding the plastisteel buildings and busy streets more to his liking. Still, he had experienced enough environments in his underworld dealings to not mind the surroundings much anymore.
Jul 24, 2018 2:54 pm
Doc moves down to the exit ramp to where Warden is standing, doing one last check to make sure he has all of the supplies he think's he'll need.
