 During tonight's game aboard the alien city space craft  I was reminded why it's a bad idea to mess with 'Nuns with bad habits' in this case Sister Sin ( an assassin whose been with our party since first edition Wretch New Flesh' ). The bad sister landed a head shot on one of the aliens with one of their weapons. This comes after the party hid one of the aliens who had been 'stone to Needleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867noreply@blogger.com0

This session picks right up from our last game October 4th & the steamy air clung to our weapons, armor, and our clothes. Something seemed off though.

The party was after Allen last session and finally made it aboard this alien vessel.
