This was great! It was fun seeing how you interpreted the oracle’s responses and seeing where you rolled. Do you typically roll for outcomes when you hit a creative lull?
I tend to make a roll before I hit the lull! If the story has gotten so slow that I need a roll to kick it up again, I’ve done something wrong. I could sit and write about my character talking to themself for hours, but that’s a different kind of game. I tend to roll for an idea, and once I’ve sort of put that idea into play (like “deception” in this bit of the story-which led to a really stupid move), I’ll roll again to see where I’m headed next.
It’s a really fun little adventure! I will give a hint that the pre-programmed events you put in place become very important to the plot. Those were a great way to make the world around the character feel like it is moving along with or without them. Very well executed!

Really cool to see the Semiotic Standard from Thousand Empty Light being put to use!
It's a great oracle for all things scifi!
Oh-ho! Direct conflict with the knuckle's Spiders, eh? Gonna be interesting to see how that flies later down the line.
Thanks for playing, Allen!

Thanks! Glad to hear I did justice to watt's prompts, :)
