Rising Sun: Issue 5

The Memory of Haakon

11

You order the ship to be turned into the storm and the hatches to be buckled down. Holding the course straight on, the storm rolls onto you crashing into the hull of the deck as wave after wave strikes the hull in rolling length after rolling swell. The boat heaves left and right, trying to brave the waves, the wind, and the crashing thunder. Lightning flashes around you with streaks of brilliant electric charges.

The crew shouts in fear, wondering if you are a madman as you laugh bravely at the storm, daring it to try to sink you. 'You tempt fate!' Shouts Reld as he valiantly holds onto an anchor rope as another wave breaks over the deck. Soaked through he shouts, 'You will kill this entire crew!'

'Have faith in the strength of Naar.' You shout back and then steer the ship once more into an incoming wave. Pick a number from the Random Number Table. If you possess the skill of Tracking and Basic Instinct, add 4 to the number you have chosen.

0-4 Turn to 46.

5+ Turn to 30.
