DC 75
53+18+5 = 76
Bare Success
It took some doing, but after you understood the importance of the office's watercooler in being a monument to discourse in the office, you became much more adept at the small talk necessary to improve your standing and actually getting the promotion. Now you can hire and fire as you see fit!
Diplomacy +1
Derek Kerman has been promoted to manager of the Kansas Office of Vital Statistics.
-[X] Study the framework of government
DC 65
14+13+5 = 32
Critical Failure!
You tried as much as you could to understand the framework of government, which positions had authority over what, the various branches, what positions were elected vs appointed, etc, but all you accomplished was giving yourself a migraine.
At least the idea to become the governor of Kansas was simple: be likeable (or just have a lot of loyal voters) and win a popularity contest. But actually doing the job itself, or finding ways to benefit Pistachions using the governor's power seems beyond you at this point in time.
DC for studying framework of government increases
Derek will have a malus for navigating the inner workings of government until this action is succeeded, or his lack of knowledge is otherwise compensated for.
-[X] Personals
--[X] Spend time with sprouts
9
You tried to spend more time with the sprouts but were bogged down again by work, and the time that you did manage to spend with them, were mostly spent on homeschooling them. At least you got the promotion you needed.
--[X] Visit a shooting range
42
While you weren't the best shot, you learned about the basics rules of handling contemporary human weapons. While in the future your people had overthrown humanity with sheer brute force and numbers, you might want to see about equipping your people with adequate weaponry to deal with the more powerful threats that now exist in the timeline. You've also purchased a pistol to keep on your person in case of emergencies.
Progress Revealed: Modern Weaponry 42/100
--[X] Homeschool sprouts for them to take the GED as well
67
You were able to sit your sprouts down and give them lessons on the materials tested on the GED so they would be able to easily pass it themselves as you did.
Sprouts gain +1 learning each and will be able to pass the GED quite easily.
--[X] Experience human culture
---[X] Watch White Wilderness
28
You saw a nature documentary but all you could really say about it was that it was something else to talk about while infiltrating humanity.
Progress Revealed: Human Culture 68/300
----------------------------------
The first generation of sprouts have aged another year, and are now the approximate size of an 18 year old. This is their final stat boost from age increases.
Martial +6
Diplomacy +1
Stewardship +1
Intrigue +1
Learning +1
-[X] Allura
--[X] Research mad science
13+5+5 = 23
-[X] Hunk
--[X] Help Allura with "mad science"
72
Allura had requested for you to purchase various items for her to conduct experiments with which you happily did. Unfortunately it seems like something went wrong during a critical moment and her experiment was ruined.
Thankfully, no one was hurt. Hunk was helping Allura build her devices and when he got a premonition of danger, he was able to tackle Allura to get both her and himself out of harm's way in time.
Allura
Progress Revealed: Mad Science 23/100
Hunk
Martial +2
Learning +1
Safety First: Hunk has developed a sense for danger and is able to think quickly under pressure. +5 to all rolls involving potentially dangerous situations or objects.
-[X] Katie
--[X] Work on the ranch
28+10 = 38
Katie had a lot of fun working on the ranch and learned a lot, but she still had more to learn before she would be ready to run the small family sized ranch on her own.
Progress revealed: 38/60
-[X] Keith
--[X] Watch television (select show that aired during current year)
---[X]The invisible man
20
Keith thought the show was boring, cheesy, and simplistic. Yeah, it would be easy to hide when you're invisible, big whoop.
Keith gains a passion for higher stake actions.
-[X] Lance
--[X] Set up a lemonade stand
14 + 5 = 19
Lance had prepped everything himself to set up a lemonade stand on a hot summer day, but by the time he was finished there were only a few local kids as customers and dealing with them annoyed him.
Stewardship +1
Diplomacy -1
