We Will NOT Play DnD

Investigation takes time, but business works on a schedule of quarterly reports. Lawry understands this better than anyone, and though the team itself might have liked to do some genuine police work for once, good business always supercedes good quality.

Evil works on a slope. At the very top are the people making small concessions in the hope things will turn out for the greater good. At the bottom of that slope, it would turn out, are men like Captain Guei.

It turns out there are a few confounds present aboard Captain Guei's ship aside from Captain Guei and his crew, and this means that the party has to figure out what to do with them. However, there are easy ways, and there are ethical ways.

Being super and special doesn't necessarily mean having more power. Sure, Superman is immune to bullets, which makes him a safe bet to walk directly into a line of fire, but that'd make him more valuable as a tank than anything. What makes a person truly special is the ability to do insane things, like hiding in a box for two weeks. Not only can nobody else do it, but most people would never have the discipline to try.

The party needs to board a boat and survive on it for two weeks. That means planning ahead - though in this case, not about the boat, but about those plans not related at all to the boat. Or possibly, those things not even necessarily grounded in reality.
