Just a quick question...

Unread post by DhAkael »

Taken from the Facecrack PBooks guild page.

Thought experiment;
Is it wise to steal from Naruni Enterprises something THEY stole from a polity which stole it originaly from a completely different dimension?
...also, is it wise to KEEP said stolen property (or a copy therein) and claim ignorance of its existance DESPITE fact of having a psychotic mudering niegh-invulnerable omnicidal elf after your PC's sig-other (thinking he/she has this ill-gotten property)?

Just wondering here.


Thoughts?

Comment: Listen very carefully, human...the fact that I even allow you to speak directly to me is a gift I bestow upon you. You do not order me. You beg for my appreciation and then wait to see if I choose to bestow it upon you.

Kinda depends on the what...but in general, if something could be used against us at a later date by our foes, my party operates on the "destroy it rather than sell it" policy. If it's not so dangerous, sell it, and enjoy the consequences!

I'd say;
"Too much heat! :? Where'd you say Gen. Lyboc was holing up for the summer? Damn. Okay, how 'bout the regional sales rep for Northern Gun? Exellent! Bastiches cheated me on my 30-day warrenty."
Then proceed to hide it in his/her mail & sit back (under blast-cover) with popcorn to watch the fireworks as the 3-way scrum happens. :demon: :ok: :demon: :ok:

No. If things have progressed past this point already, pray is your only answer.

DhAkael, next time your in Houson near the Johnson Space flight Center, remember, our "Giant Leap for Mankind" included Steps on the lives of the workers of Mittelbau-Dora.

you left off "Turn the whole mess over to the local athoritys and let them sort things out."

I voted the second option, as that, is what I Jay would do. My characters? #1 would choose option 1 #2 would probably turn it over to his superiors, barring that? Option 3

It depends on how badly you need the money.

"I need this money to save my family!"

Sold!

"I need this money for that new Ferrari!"

Planted!

"I need this money to put new seats in my new Gulfstream! I decided I didn't like the ones that came with it!"

Given back to NE!
There's a reason...and a very good one...that I have certain people in this forum blocked both here and on Facebook.

I can see an illustration of that nearly every time I come here.

You might have a reason to have a couple Audit ships pay a visit to your players.
