Wrong Place, Wrong Time

The Savage Wilderness

Very few planets are entirely consumed by civilization. Some have regions which are positively uncouth.

Bad luck has a way of reaching a boiling point, but in an adventurous life, that just mean something important is cooking.

Always

Always

Troops? With a map of Earth?

There's a suspicious alien encampment nearby with a lot of intelligence about good ol' planet Earth.

Earthlings? Here?

A group of kids seem to have taken an interest in you, but how did they get so far from home. They don't act like abductees.

Hit by a Skyfall

Space is just full of dangerous objects which smash into other dangerous objects at odd intervals. How dangerous is your head?


What a Weird Way to Plan an Invasion

The aliens have as many calendars and almanacs as they do star charts and globes. What in the heavens are they up to?

You are known far and wide as a jinx, the kind of bad luck that brings ships crashing out of the sky.

Stop a Rampaging Star-Beast

After all, who better to stop a Creature from Beyond than another space monster?

Sometimes

Sometimes

Establish a Telepathic Link

A straightforward challenge

The star creature may not communicate in any other way.

Roar At It

A straightforward challenge

If that fails, step on its neck. That's how the Alpha-Leader is established on the most primal level.

Rig Up Some Kind of Translator

A straightforward challenge

Maybe it's intelligent. Those howls, clicks and color changes might be some kind language.

Flee Amidst the Carnage

The terrible damage this howling Thing From A Distant World wreaks may give you the perfect chance to escape... admittedlty into an even more hostile wilderness.


Success!

Rig Up Some Kind of Translator

A straightforward challenge

            1
            Unlocked with TCB 1 - you have 39

...or maybe it just has a cold. Once a tissue changes hands, this weird thing turns out to be a marooned starship crewman, one with a nearby ship that can easily be repaired (although the navigation system is a total bust.)

You've gained 1 x TCB (new total 38 - Peregrination Artist).

You succeeded in a TCB challenge! (Simple challenges mean you don't learn so much.)
