S01 E29 - Ironsworn: Starforged - Death Laser

Good morning, afternoon, or evening and welcome back to the solo roleplaying podcast One Guy One Roll! We have been exploring the story of Nikora Sokolov using the Ironsworn: Starforged system and I can hardly believe we are already on Episode 29. This episode starts off with our entire ship in a really bad spot and is the closest we have been to losing our character since starting the series! Thank you so much for the support and continuing to listen to the podcast, y’all are seriously rockstars. Per usual, the following paragraph is going to be a quick summary of what occurred during this episode and will contain spoilers, so feel free to skip it if you wish to remain entirely spoiler free!

At the beginning of the episode we are thrown immediately right back into a dangerous situation involving the strange precursor satellite orbiting around an icy world that is criss-crossed with deep canyons. This strange object, which was first changing its shape into different geometric shapes, has become a pyramid that appears to be absorbing the sunlight from this system’s distant star, which is charging some sort of crystalline power source deep within the structure. When this dangerous death laser is fully charged, it unleashes a powerful beam of energy towards the Second Chance, which Nikora is barely able to avoid using all of the available thrust and maneuverability of the old space trucker. Knowing that taking a direct hit from this deadly weapon would spell the end of the Second Chance and all of those aboard, Nikora comes up with a crazy plan involving Petra, who he is barely able to convince to join with him. Will this crazy half-baked plan work? Or will the story of Nikora and the Second Chance come to an explosive end in this episode?
