Encounter 2 (Part 1): The Previous Accidents
Ghost Girl
"Water World is strangely gloomy. The rides are ready, everything looks
freshly painted, the smell and sounds of animals are faint but
noticeable. But with only workers getting ready, the park is eerily
empty and lonely. Head Dolphin Trainer Carlotta Gucci meets you at the
park entrance to show you around."
Carlotta tries to be prim and businesslike, though she will get lots
going to each accident site. If she is engaged in conversation, she may
reveal that she has no idea why anybody would try to hurt people in
order to force Christine to take over her job, especially since
Christine is such a nice girl. This is a piece of information that
Andre told Carlotta but she wasn't supposed to tell anyone else.
The first accident occurred at The Boomerang (#93) coaster. Two workers
were conducting a test run when their car flew off the tracks and into
a nearby pond. Luckily they were not seriously hurt. Later
investigations revealed that part of the track was missing, which is
strange since they had run a walk-through before doing the test run.
Detective vs OV/RV 5/5:
- 1 RAP (roll 10): From the bends in the metal, looks
like the
pieces of track were wrenched away, possibly by a strong man with a
crowbar, though that would normally take a minute or two.
- 3 RAPs (roll 12): You find a piece of clothing, like
from a suit, colored black.
- 5 RAPs (roll 17): You find some footprints on the
ground. Looks
like a man wearing good dress shoes. Strange you are sure there are no
signs of this man climbing or walking to the place where the track was
damaged.

On the way to
the second accident, they will pass one of the many pools in Water
World. A dolphin will greet Carlotta who will say "Hi Flipper!" and
introduce Penelope.
The second accident took place at the 'Round the World (#32). A group
of workers was walking by when the whole thing came off it's mooring
and fell crashing down amidst the workers. It's a miracle nobody was
hurt. A replacement will arrive next week and the ride will be fixed in
time for the park grand opening.
Detective vs OV/RV 5/5:
- 1 RAP (roll 10): Looks like it was sabotaged, the
mooring being but by something, after that it would only be a few
minutes before the whole thing came crashing down.
- 3 RAPs (roll 12): Actually, there was a device
attached to the mooring. You can't tell what it was for.
- 5 RAPs (roll 17): The device was some sort of remote
controlled dispenser. A strong acid was used to cut through the
mooring. Someone skilled in Demolitions knew what they were doing.
