Steal This Side Quest: Deliveries from Evil
🕑 Added 2022-02-20 17:14:00 +0000 UTCGooood time zone to you! This week, Steal This Side Quest continues with a brand new quest from Augury!
Fun fact: I filmed this last fall, but the sound was messed up on Augury's portions. I ended up dubbing all of her lines. 😅 Hopefully nobody will notice if they're not looking for it... but of course I'm hyper-critical of every little mismatch. It's still a fun quest, though, and I'm very proud of it! Augury is such a cartoon villain, which I just find so charming.
By the way, the dice palette mentioned at the end doesn't go live until Wednesday, so make sure to check back then if you want to pick one up!

Yeah, I think I'm going to make her a regular contact for the PCs in my next campaign (whenever the current one wraps up in a couple of years). My players are already talking about playing "less good" characters and I'm interesting in doing something with ships. She would be a great contact to send the party to smuggle stuff or buy loot no questions asked.

Oh, absolutely! I’m making her pretty high level when I do her stat sheet — she’s the kind of villain you’d only defeat after a whole arc, because she’s incredibly well-connected and she knows that people will target her, and is prepared. She’s 100% not an easy mark, imo she’s a boss!

I think Augury is smart enough not to be an easy mark for a party. She might go down eventually, but as someone smart enough to run a smuggling operation, I expect her to take precautions with any face-to-face interactions and be very hard to pin down. I can totally see her as one of those frenemy type allies who the party doesn't like, but they're willing to work for on occasion and maybe a little afraid of.
even though I knew about the dubbing, I wasn't looking for it, and I was engaged in the content enough that I forgot about it even being a thing. I think you're good on the slight mismatch issue. :D
