getting aboard the spiffy scull riverboat

The sun is just beginning to set over the Junktown docks. A red carpet leads down the pier to a pristine, gold-painted riverboat. Two DRATCH (L5-B) bouncers dressed in pinstripe suits take tickets at the ramp leading aboard. As long as the PCs have a ticket and look the part of influential guests, they are directed to the party on the Main Deck. The Spiffy Scull departs the dock once everyone is aboard and the sun has set. It heads upriver at a leisurely pace. DRATCH mooks

LESTER GOFER

Lester Gofer, owner of the Spiffy Scull, likes to show off. He flaunts four pouches of Gold Coins on his belt at all times. His matching jacket and hat constantly shift colors and his Levitating Loafers allow him to float a few inches off the ground (or river!) at all times. He has a small skull key on a gold chain around his neck. It unlocks his office desk drawer. Perhaps his one redeeming trait is his affection for his loyal pet guardvark Chuck. Lester will relentlessly compliment his guests (except Hagar Hullabaloo) in an attempt to butter them up. The only thing Lester loves more than a returned compliment is the smell of gold coins. Unsurprisingly, he treats his servers and mooks with contempt and disdain. He apologizes to his guests often explaining, “It's so difficult to find good service these days!”

• Traits: Braggart, derisive, smuggest of the smug.
• Motivation: Diversify his portfolio by glad-handing and stabbing in the back.
