  • [x] This soul can be viewed as an analog to Karl's case, with the sole difference being already dead. Try to separate the restless soul from its emerging void contamination for practice's sake, perhaps even forcibly. Should all go well - good; if not, the worse for the spirit. (normal (20) arcane skill check, luck roll)
    [X] This spirit shows signs of partial void contamination but is still a soul of a once-living being. If Rene sent you here, they must expect you to guide it to the other side in a gentle manner witnessed and partaken in earlier.

  • [x] Attend Karl. Luckily, his state did not degrade, making this the best time to solve this problem (An event sequence will be started. Lucy's proficiency and Karl's state guarantee success)
    [x] "After Seph revealed to me her story, I can guarantee that her unforeseen companionship tonight translates as "I have nothing and no one except for you, so I want to be helpful." Doubt she would say it out loud anytime soon, but it does not change the fact she really cares for us. I see how you are sticking to the promise of not antagonizing her, but would it be too much of me to also ask you to show her at least a little appreciation? Perhaps, something even tiny or symbolic, just so she would know that she isn't alone and we care about her, too."
    [X] "In front of others, you can pretend to be an impenetrable wall all you want, but I see how nervous you are about our involvement with kherees, the reveal we've just got, and this whole expedition in general. And if this wasn't enough trouble, I swear you feel somewhat regretful around Hjorn, not even mentioning other things you hold inside from before we met. You told me that I'm the reason you altered your course in the past. Should this be how you really feel, it would only be fair for me to hear your concerns and help however I can. If you believe I can be of your help, that is..."

Mkay, 'tis rollin' time...
Ata girl, Lu.

Now, time to calculate...

Ulren:
Perception attr.: 12+7=19 (normal)
Intellect attr.: 9+9=18 (normal)
Wisdom attr.: 1+13=14 (easy)
Melee skill: 20+17=37 (legendary)
Defense skill: 11+20=31 (very hard)
Balance skill: 14+6=20 (normal)
Coordination attr.: 17+10=27 (very hard)
Luck: 40>=39 (positive influence triggered)

Sephorah:
Reconnaissance skill: 16+8=24 (hard)
Sneaking skill: 14+15=29 (very hard)
Mobility attr.: 10+11=21 (hard)
Burglary skill: 7+10=17 (easy)
Perception attr.: 9+9=18 (normal)
Luck: 38>32>2 (no influence)

Karl:
Willpower skill: 16+11=27>20 (passed)
Perception attr.: 1+8=9 (elementary)
Intellect attr.: 8+15=23 (hard)
Pharma&treatment skill: 17+9=26 (hard)
Melee skill: 1+1=2 (total failure)
Luck: 38>34>2 (no influence)

Lucifina:
Willpower skill: 17+6=23>20 (passed)
Perception attr.: 12+6=18 (normal)
Intellect attr.: 18+12=30 (epic)
Pharma&treatment skill: 14+9=23 (normal)
Melee skill: 5+4=9 (nonsense)
Luck: 40>=37 (positive influence triggered)

Verdict: Ulren and Lucy would dig for clues pretty well. Karl would be of some help but not precisely radiating hyper competence (dude, what the heck are you staring at?). Sephie would dig out some peculiar clues, but not all of them. Overall: B to B+ tier team effort, which is pretty well. Some good clues would be found, but not their entirety. BTW, good character allocation! :D

@veekie in the very first threadmark post, I mentioned Lucy's species to have nearly paranormal luck, but bloody hell never did I imagine just how true it would be.

Fluff: AVG totals be like Ulren 23.71, Seph 21.80, Karl 17.40, Lucy 20.60
